Don't get discouraged - get inspired!






chidorinnnnn

so you’re telling me one of the characters in wake up dead man is a formerly beloved author who, after the culmination of his wildly popular fiction series, has been radicalized online by right-wing conspiracy theorists, has abandoned his successful writing career in favor of spending all of his time on social media (and what little writing he does put out on his substack is praised only by his staunchest supporters), and is SO convinced that everyone’s out to get him that he’s dug a literal moat around his (distinctly castle-shaped) house?

lol. lmao, even.

Designs for the new Dragon/Knight AU~


Crowley is a shapeshifting dragon that can switch between a giant fire spitting lizard and a more humanoid form with slight dragon features. He is the protector of the castle and the Princess - a job that he takes very seriously and which was given to him with the words that this is Crowley's only useful purpose in life.

Besides the hand of the Princess, great riches are waiting for the one who slays the dragon but Crowley remains undefeated as he isn't only relying on brute strength and fire power but also on his wits and creativity in dangerous situations.


Aziraphale is a knight from a powerful family that was sent out to honor the tradition of saving the Princess. Born with a kind soul, Aziraphale has actually no interests in slaying any creatures but his attempt in creating a calm life with goals of his own were always cut short by relatives. Now he is heading towards an ominous castle in a withered land with no name to challenge the dragon like many knights did before him.

More to come soon!

Also little note: The drawing on the bottom of the first slide was made before I finished Crowley's dragon design, which is why it looks a tad bit different (and I was too lazy to go back and fix it 🙈)

Y'all. "Hell is empty and the devil's are here" is not one of those epic Tumblr quotes. It's from The Tempest. The Shakespeare one.

remember when that furry post went around with "you have nothing to lose but your chains" and people were saying "this is such a raw ass line and it's from a furry post" but it's literally karl marx

reading waiting for godot for class and finding out that’s where that “that’s how it is on this bitch of an earth” meme is from ruined me i think

astraltrickster

new game: "classic or shitpost?" in which we give you a raw-ass quote and you have to determine whether it came from an internet shitpost or classic literature

"I will face god and walk backward into hell" that one on the other hand is actually from a dril tweet

The idea of “but everyone knows that” needs to stop.

I saw a post about someone chiding Millennials for not knowing about JKRowlings transphobia, and asking how it is at all possible that people can exist in the world and the internet and, you know, not know.

Which I mean, I get. It is so present in so many of my online spaces that it seems astounding that someone could simply be ignorant! It feels impossible!

But let me tell you a story:

I went on a girls trip with a bunch of friends. All of us are rather incredibly liberal and all of us are incredibly online.

One girl would not stop talking about Harry Potter.

At one point, another girl asked her why she was ok with supporting it, and she had no real clue that JK Rowling was at all transphobic. She had heard that she likes to support Lesbian causes and thought “oh ok cool!” And that was it. She was AGOG with the news and rather horrified.

I must once again emphasize that she was an incredibly online person. She’s a foodie and a restaurant blogger.

Later in the trip we were picking restaurants and I suggested one I found on Google, and she gasped at me. Actually gasped, asking how I could ever be okay picking that one.

The shock must’ve been on my face, because she then told me all of the shitty things that restaurateur does. He abuses staff. Underpays them. Fires them on a whim. Is known for being one of the worst people to his employees in the entire restaurant business on this coast.

And she was so shocked I had never heard of this. Because in her mind, I was just as online as her. And in her online world, EVERYONE knew about this guy.

So I think the moral of this story is: always approach the other person with some empathy. Even online people, even people you think MUST know about how bad people are, may not have heard. It may truly be just them being on a different sphere of the internet than you.

So be gentle, be kind when letting people know they might not have heard about the cancellation of XYZ person. Don’t assume that everyone knows all the same info as you.

By all means, let them know so they can make informed decisions, but being kind will go a lot further than attacking them for some info they might not know yet.

This meme is inescapable on French insta so I'm posting it here for all to enjoy

queen-mihai

Always reblog flash debate

official-megumin

on it boss

zocomi

reminder that the presenter says "oh, shut up" not "can it"

azeofspades

Native French speaker here. "Ta gueule" is actually more like "shut the fuck up" in terms of level of disrespect

belphegor1982

also worth noting is that the "are you happy" is the correct gender

kkachi-serica

a screenshot of tags which read as follows: the trans man gets the correct pronouns but he also gets the formal you (vous) while the guy he tells to shut the fuck up gets the informal (ta as the possessive of the informal tu). this is a concise put down the likes of which we simply cannot achieve in English.ALT
