‘don’t you want your favourite character to be happy???’ no? i want my favourite character to be interesting. i want me to be happy. which sometimes involves my favourite character being in exquisite agony
i’m begging you guys to start pirating shit from streaming platforms. there are so many websites where you can stream that shit for free, here’s a quick HOW TO:
1) Search for: watch TITLE OF WORK free online
2) Scroll to the bottom of results. Click any of the “Complaint” links
3) You will be taken to a long list of links that were removed for copyright infringement. Use the ‘find’ function to search for the name of the show/movie you were originally searching for. You will get something like this (specifics removed because if you love an illegal streaming site you don’t post its url on social media)
4) each of these links is to a website where you can stream shit for free. go to the individual websites and search for your show/movie. you might have to copy-paste a few before you find exactly what you’re looking, but the whole process only takes a minute. the speed/quality is usually the same as on netflix/whatever, and they even have subtitles! (make sure to use an adblocker though, these sites are funded by annoying popups)
In conclusion, if you do this often enough you will start recognizing the most dependable websites, and you can just bookmark those instead. (note: this is completely separate from torrenting, which is also a beautiful thing but requires different software and a vpn)
you can also download the media in question (look for a “download” button built into the video window, or use a browser extension such as Video DownloadHelper.)
if the “Complaint” links are not visible for you:
Option 1: try the DuckDuckGo search engine instead (bonus: dedicated to privacy! doesn’t track your data!)
Option 2: go directly to LumenDatabase.org (the website that collects the complaints–and therefore the removed links) and search for the title you want. look for results titled “DMCA (Copyright) Complaint to Google” featuring the media you’re looking for. Proceed to Step 3 (above).
personally, i’m a huge fan of r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH. they keep their links up to date and they also rank them, basically. they also have all kinds of little pages explaining how to safely pirate shit.
^^^^what they said. I’m surprised people are still reblogging this post now that google’s flushed itself down the toilet. so here is your
2026 UPDATE:
just go to r/FreeMediaHeckYeah and r/Piracy. it’s easier, more reliable, and will take care of all your piracy needs!
Just a reminder from me (a military brat) and my parents (both military from military families): The most definitive way to know a recruiter is lying to you is to listen closely to what they’re saying. If you hear sounds, they’re lying.
My favorite form of redemption arc is “I hate that I have morals now”
Like “I realized that I was in the wrong and now I will work hard to atone” is good and all, but “how dare you infect me with morals” will always be so much more entertaining
That moment the former baddie starts to walk away from some bad situation, almost gets out, and then just stops, curses, and turns around to go help?
i love it when people post art of two characters absolutely ripping each other to violent shreds with realistic bloody gore and nothing but hatred in either’s eyes, then you look at the tags and the two’s ship name is the first thing there
sometimes i wonder if we have forgotten that sharing creative work is, fundamentally, a bid for human connection. like I’m not posting art or fic for ‘engagement’ i’m posting it looking for other sickos to play with! i’d be making it anyway for my own gratification because there’s something wrong with me, i’m sharing it hoping we can have something wrong with us together <3
first off, I just read the house of aculon and I am absolutely floored. Amazing fic no notes. And second, how do you know so much about the events???? Specifically the aculon family???? I scoured the wiki and couldnt even find a mention of outlyingcrow, or benjis connection to Solev. I yearn for your family tree finding abilities
THANK YOU FOR READING HOUSE OF ACULON!!!!! it truly amazes me how many people got invested in my silly little passion project of a fic 💖
and youve also given me the perfect opening to finally post what me and my good friend Aureatic (the author of Skyfall, though im not sure if theyre okay with me tagging them on here haha) decided to compile a few weeks ago!!
the aculon family lore doc is accessible to anyone who wants to learn about it! i also put a revamped family tree in there while aureatic made an amazingly comprehensive timeline with the family’s history. we also put in some disputed members who did not make it onto the official tree. go check that out if you’d like to learn more <333
“no one’s ever mad at me unless they tell me so” is the best assumption i’ve ever made
sorry for tagwatching but you still have to act like they aren’t mad at you imo! bc it’s the mad person’s duty to make it known if they want anything changed. it is never anyone’s duty to be a mind reader.
If I am mad at someone and am remaining Quiet about it, it is because I Do Not Wantthem to know that I’m mad.
Please respect my boundaries and assume that I am Not mad.
If you’re worried that I am mad, consider the possibility that I am mad for reasons I know are stupid and do not want to make it your problem.
Ohhh that last addition opens my eyes in a big way, thank you.
As someone who has been on the Internet longer than many of you have been alive, I cannot emphasise enough what a good idea it is to block fools, bores, and drama-starters ON SIGHT. That means, on the FIRST sight. See the take, do not wait.
You are not a court of law. You are not required to hear them out, argue, nor give them a second chance. Block them. Nothing bad will happen to them without you! It’s fine! Goodbye forever! Prevention is better than cure.
My fellow aunties will be with me on this.
Block without remorse and skip away knowing freedom and peace
Back in 2021, I tried my hand at creating an Aurora Nyan Cat inspired by the Aurora Borealis, but I just couldn’t nail it. Honestly, the vision and skills weren’t quite there yet, so I ended up shelving the piece.
A few months ago, I got to see the real Auroras, and it sparked something in me to revisit this piece, and after some time it’s finally finished the way I remembered that moment. Very happy with how it came out, and honestly, it’s okay to step back from a project and come back with fresh eyes—even if it takes a while.
