wait i would also like to present a concept
A friend of Tim (chose your favorite, let’s say Ives) is super hyped about this new movie coming out, and Tim is like, I’m a rich boy, I can make dreams come true. He pulls strings for them to go to the premiere and be right up next to the red carpet.
Tim knows nothing about this movie. Ives’s rambling has gone in one ear and out the other. He has not looked up a single thing about it. He’s just doing this because it’s a cool thing to do for his friend.
This will prove to be a mistake.
Down the red carpet comes one of the actors, a man long down on his luck, who has finally made his big break in a real Hollywood movie. We’ll call him Not-Eddie. An actor not known for such roles as: Tim’s fake uncle to stop Bruce from adopting him.
Actor Not-Eddie makes eye-contact with Tim. Tim makes eye-contact with Actor Not-Eddie.
Actor Not-Eddie would very much like no one to know he once accepted money to help a teenager commit fraud. (It’s tough making a living, okay?)
Tim would very much like no one to know he once paid someone to help him commit fraud, exclusively so he could prevent the billionaire who has since adopted him from adopting him back then because they were Going Through A Thing. Tim would especially like no one to know that he committed this fraud so effectively that every government database in existence still holds records for his uncle Eddie, who looks weirdly like that cool new actor.
They have been staring too long. Ives, oblivious, says, “Hey, you know that guy from somewhere?”
Tim panics.

actually I think people who complain about superhero comics with stuff like “ugh it’s so silly Cyborg turned into a planet” or “Jason Todd being resurrected by Superboy Prime punching the universe is ridiculous :/” are akin to people who don’t like musicals saying “actually musicals are bad because it doesn’t make sense that the characters break into song”

A lot of people assume that almost all superheroes fit a standard of having masked (literally or metaphorically) hero identities and separate civilian identities they keep stringently secret. In reality, the identity management across the DCU is wide and varied and includes:
The classic: people who grew up as regular civilians, and later took on masked identities, hiding the connection between the two (e.g. most Bats)
As above, except minus the mask, with such seeming forthrightness heroes that no one realizes they even have a secret identity too (e.g. Clark/Superman)
Characters who once had secret identities, until those identities got revealed and they could no longer have any secrecy (e.g. Cassie/Wonder Girl)
Characters who have civilian identities and hero identities, but make no effort to hide that they’re the same person (e.g. Dinah/Black Canary)
Heroes who have fully abandoned any pretense of duel identity at all and literally just use their own name for heroing (e.g. Donna Troy)
Characters who can’t have secret identities, because their identity is blatantly obvious on first sight (e.g. Vic/Cyborg, Kory/Starfire)
Characters whose “hero name” is actually their real name--often because they’re not from earth--and for whom the dichotomy of “adopted hero identity and real civilian identity” just wouldn’t make sense (e.g. og Raven)
As above, but they later create a secret civilian alias to live as, which may or may not become more than an alias (e.g. Raven as “Rachel Roth”, Diana/Wonder Woman as “Diana Prince”, Kon-el/Superboy as “Conner Kent”)
Characters who are just really, really bad about keeping their secret identity secret and might not even care (e.g. just. all of the Arrows)

My #1 post of 2022
i do really love the idea of Time Shenanigans leading to ~13-year-old Damian meeting all former Robins at the same age, because every single one of them is just the exact opposite of what he’d expect.
Dick, who Damian expects to be the cool nice supportive one, at thirteen is fucking furious at the idea that there are any Robins after him. Stephanie, far from the perky optimist he knows, is a hardcore cynic who thinks Batman is super cool and hasn’t even become a vigilante yet. Jason, who has previously interacted with Damian mostly via bullets, is a sweetheart who’s exceptionally insecure at the idea of Bruce getting another Robin.
And meanwhile Tim at thirteen is like “oh you’re the next Robin? Heck yeah, that’s awesome, glad it worked out.”

Trying to revive this blog,
So how are we doing rotumblr

Yeah like what’s the point of even having anon features if they can’t use your website?????? Like on certain blogs I can’t even view them without being blocked????? I don’t understand????
And I can’t talk to people if they don’t have a submission box which is awkward because not many people have a submission box that I can see! -🌟
══════════════════ 
well the blog thing is most likely that some people have set it to not be visible outside the tumblr dashboard; some people just don’t want their blog viewable to anyone outside of tumblr and there’s a number of reasons why that could be, it’s their own personal decision
the submission/ask box thing can sometimes be a case i know of new users forgetting to turn it on, but sometimes too its deliberately turned off (or limited, like anons being turned off and only other users can ask qs) for, again, a number of different reasons (︶︿︶)
#submission#i forgot to answer this one sorry#the askbox being disabled entirely now if you dont have an acc is so so shitty tho ugh#also cause in general asks are the more popular thing i dont really know too many people who even remember the submission box exists#maybe ive been here too long. idk not that long but even before having an acc i was familiar w/ how the site worked and memes and such#i def get the frustration but there are valid reasons why some people limit who can contact them/view their stuff#that also being said though it is really shitty that modern internetscape basically forces you to make accs you might never use just to#view things or save images or whatever. in some cases i definitely do get why they do that#but like for newspaper sites lets say thats really fcking annoying. can i not know wtf is happening without paying up so much bruh#this is also a random nitpick but i HATE the new tumblr.com/(blogname) compared to the old (blogname).tumblr.com#ik new users might have no idea that you are able to turn that off and get ur own custom domain. but like its so annoying how this is forced#they butchered the link sharing stuff too its fucking hell if i wanna send tumblr links on mobile now. so annoying ugh#if anything age of website managements fcking shit up when it was fine before and legit nobody asked for change. its just like that sometime#sorry for randomly ranting and kinda negative vibes??? ill get to the playlist thing later again sorry its taking a while 😭#ollie the star anon

By the way...
it was sort of last week, or maybe during the week before—I forget— when @petermorwood came downstairs to get tea while he was working on some long post or another full of guns and swords and assorted deadly weaponry—or cats, or food, or historical clothing, you know what he's like... and all of a sudden he said:
"So what about Cyber Monday?"
And I wasn't sure where that was coming from, as Peter normally doesn't spend a lot of his time being concerned about cyber stuff in general.
"Uh, why?" said I.
"Well, it's the Young Wizards anniversary month. Shouldn't you be doing some kind of sale offer over on Twitter, the way you did on Tumblr?"
My mouth kind of opened and shut again. Mostly at the moment when I think of Twitter, it's in terms of imagery involving things circling the drain at ever-increasing speed. And as far as Cyber Monday went, I hadn't really thought about it. This year I noticed that I've started kind of lumping it in with Black Friday, which mostly increasingly makes me mutter and shake my head as I see what my email box gets to look like this time of year. And since I'd been mostly preoccupied with writing issues and website crap lately, you could kind of multiply that not-caring by two. Or five. Or some power of ten.
...Yet he had a point. And what the hell, at least putting a video up there would remind people that the series existed! (Because people do seem to keep forgetting, and then suddenly bursting out with OH WAIT ARE THESE THOSE BOOKS I LOVED WHEN I WAS A KID, WAIT, YOU MEAN SHE WROTE THOSE, I THOUGHT ALL SHE DID WAS STAR TREK?!) (Eyeroll.)
"But I told them on Tumblr," I said, "that I wasn't going to do any more of these sales for the foreseeable future."
"Looks like you forgot to foresee this," said Himself, dumping half a cow's worth of milk in his tea as usual. "Look, if you do it just one more time, I bet they'll forgive you as long as you tell them about it so they can take advantage of it if they want to." Then he snickered. "And anyway, you told them you weren't going to do any Sherlock/Young Wizards fusions either, and look how that turned out." More snickering. "They forgave you for that. Eventually."
"Oh god."
"Just tell them. They'll let you off the hook." Up the stairs he went, still snickering. "Sometime in mid-2024 probably."
(eyeroll)
Dammitall, I hate it when he has a point.
So look. Here's the discount page. There's the video, two paragraphs down. You all know the drill. The "All the Wizardry" package is $29.99 today. The "I Want Everything You've Got" package is $40 just for today. Anybody who hasn't taken advantage of one of these offers previously, or didn't have the cash earlier, or wants to point somebody else at it...go knock yourself or -selves out with my abslute blessing. (Because who knows whether anybody on Twitter will notice at all, the way the algorithm's been behaving.)
And: everybody please forgive me. (abases herself before the assembled multitudes in the approved manner)
Tumblr media
(...Anyway, WTH, it's worth a try. I want to get this friend of mine a new fountain pen for Christmas, and every little bit helps...) :)
(And a final reminder: we can't sell to people in Britain / the UK, it's a Brexit problem ... so sorry about that.)

Oh my God, if you wrote more sex doll!141 I would be thrilled. It's such a good concept and you've executed it wonderfully!! (Personally I'm partial to simon but if you wrote any of the other characters I would still eat it up).
-🦝
So I’m going to be honest, Simon is a very difficult character for me to right in intimate situations because of how his character is structured. It’s one of the reasons I have trouble flushing out how I write him and why he may be much more varying than my other boys when I write them fic to fic. He’s truthfully the hardest character for me to right and he’s the one I know the most about so I hope this is good.
Masterlist is pinned on profile as always, check out my AU list for more like this. Don’t forget to leave me a comment (i always try to respond) or a request in my inbox (i also try to respond to these when I can), a reblog, or even just a like to let me know what yall want to see!
I gift you, Sex Doll!Simon and his loser!reader as a gift. As always, under the cut.
A doll and his loser 2, electric boogaloo.
When Simon’s lady had ordered him, she had also been drunk. She was ovulating, feeling sorry for herself, and incredibly horny when the ad on whatever porn site she was on popped up for the sex dolls. So she scrolled through the options, noticing the ‘Johnny’ Doll was sold out, but it didn’t matter, one had caught her eye immediately. The doll style they had named ‘Simon’. His mask made her run wild. She noticed how the pants clung to his thighs and wide shoulders and it made her mouth water. She couldn’t even remember what she ordered the next morning between headaches and vomiting but she just assumed it was something she forgot and paid off that credit card charge.
It was days later when the box arrived.
“Big ole box you got there,” her neighbor teased, “need help getting it in, little lady?”
She huffed, she had been trying to push it in for about 20 minutes. “Please,” she whined.
Her neighbor helped get the probably 200 pound package into her room. The box was all scratched, fragile stickers torn. She thanked her neighbor and ushered him out as she began to open the weird box.
The language seemed made up, but she didn’t expect to get the box open and a giant Ken doll to fall on her with a loud thud as the two hit her floor.
“You’re a big bitch,” she groaned as she shoved the doll off her. His eyes fluttered open and she watched him curiously. “Hi.”
She was met with silence. He seemed mute, like his mouth was stuck shut.
Confused and slightly disappointed, she stared down at the doll lying on her floor.
She had expected an interactive experience, a companion that would fulfill her desires, but all she had in front of her was a lifeless figure. Frustration began to well up within her, fueled by the lingering effects of her hangover.She had gotten wasted the night before again.
Frustrated, she decided to give the doll a chance. After all, she had spent a considerable amount of money on it, and maybe there was a way to activate its features. She carefully inspected the doll, running her hands over its smooth, artificial skin and marveling at the intricate details. But no matter how hard she looked, there didn't seem to be any buttons or switches that would bring it to life.
Determined to find a solution, she grabbed her laptop and searched for the website where she had made the purchase. But it was as if the site never existed. It wasn’t in her search history, it wasn’t in her purchase history, she couldn’t even find a number on the box.
Frustration turned to confusion as she scrolled through her browsing history, desperately trying to find any trace of the website that had led her to this mysterious doll. It was as if the entire transaction had been erased from existence.
Feeling a mixture of unease and curiosity, she decided to take matters into her own hands. With the doll still lying motionless on the floor, she sat down next to it and began examining every inch of its body. Perhaps there was some hidden mechanism, some secret activation method that she had missed.
Then she saw the icon on the box between the gibberish writing, something about the lips.
She crouched down and tenderly pressed her lips against the cool, skin textured rubber of the cheek of the robot. In response, his previously stiff body began to move and his facial features softened into a look of happiness.
A surge of excitement coursed through her veins as she realized that there was more to this doll than met the eye. She had stumbled upon something extraordinary, something beyond her wildest dreams. Her hangover instantly forgotten, she eagerly awaited what would happen next.
Slowly but surely, the doll began to move. Its previously inanimate limbs twitched and flexed as if awakening from a deep slumber.
“Hi,” she said softly, running her hand over the mask.
He flipped his mask up over his lips and quickly kissed her passionately.
She let out a squeak as he climbed on top of her.
“So pent up,” he mumbled, kissing down her neck as she giggled. His hands roaming free. “So stiff, I could use a good stretch, love. And it seems based on your purchase of me, you could too.” He said with a teasing tone before pulling off her pants she wore to work.
He began to eat her through her panties, but it was more lip locking with her lower set. He moved her panties to the side and continued his make out session with her labia. His teeth occasionally gently pulling on them. He took his sweet time getting her wet before he did any more. He spit on her then dug in.
Messy, his face covered in her natural lube, mask rubbing against her clit.
She sat there like this for a while but she got too loud so he stretched his long arm so his palm stretched over her mouth, thumb rubbing her cheek as he continued. Her eyes rolling back as he edged her slowly. One, then two, then three times. Her body convulsing as he finally lifted himself, she let out a whine and he shushed her before freeing himself from his jeans.
He got real close to his ear. “How badly.” He commanded.
She whined out pitifully as a plea.
“Good.” He said, throwing a leg over his shoulder before sliding in and thrusting. A fast pace in, a roll of the hips, and slow pull out. He held this pace for so long she began to feel like the sex doll. It was brutal in the most wonderful way.
Toe curling.
Ball smacking.
Pussy dripping.
Best sex of her life.
Her cervix thoroughly bullied.
Her moans muffled and covered by his rough palm.
Her rug covered in sweat, her flooring under it glistening with heat.
When he finally let her come it was like reaching the peak of Everest. She gasped and whined and moaned, almost screamed into his palm. He fucked her through it and came not long after from her body milking his cock.
He removed his hand and cock making her whine, returning his mouth to her cunt to make out with it again.
He cleaned her of his cum before picking her up and running a bath.
“Worth every penny.” Was all her mushed brain could muster.

I absolutely fell in love with this statue when I first saw it. I not only loved the pose, but I loved how the lantern can light up as well. The fact that they turned this iconic scene into a statue made me so happy. They only made 138 of these statues, and unfortunately they are no longer being sold on any of the trusted GK figure sites. (there are a few sketchy websites selling them, that I honestly wouldn't trust) They were made quite a while ago so the price has inflated, and the only place I've seen them for sale is ebay, which is where I got mine. It came in great condition and the seller was really great, so if you'd like a link send me a message and I'll send it to you. The only downside is that this figure is very expensive, and for some reason, it got even more expensive after I purchased mine. I personally don't think it's worth the price it's going for, but if you really want one I'll send you a link! P.s. sorry for the bad quality photos, I tried taking them in low light so you could see the lantern.

This one is super cute! It's extremely detailed, the faces look perfect, and they even made Ume's tears look realistic. Overall this is a really beautiful statue. There were only 388 of these made. This one is a lot cheaper than the one above though, but it is pretty much only being sold on ebay now. If you'd like a link to it send me a message and I'll happily send you a link. Keep in mind though, they just announced an official figure similar to this one. It doesn't look that great in my opinion, but it's much cheaper and available for pre-order right now.
Tumblr media
I got these statues for my birthday and I completely forgot to show them to y'all. So here I am, even though it's a bit late. By the way, these statues are not official. I just wanted them because I thought they were cool. Don't judge me, I bought these back when I actually had money (╥﹏╥)
Most of the resin statues that exist of him, I don't quite like them as I feel they don't look enough like him. These were the only ones I liked enough to invest in.
Again if you are interested in them I wouldn't mind sending you a link! ♡

Cover reveal!!
Hi tumblr, sorry I forgot you existed for like a year or something lol... 😅
So yeah, FYI for anyone who's read my comic about growing up gay and Orthodox Jewish here or somewhere else online, it's coming out as a physical book Feb 6!!!
You can preorder it here, or at plenty of other websites, or you can of course ask for it at your local comic shop / bookstore, and/or request it at your local library! Any of those would be amazing!!
Here are some really nice things some other cartoonists who've read it have said about it:
“I'm so glad this beautiful, thoughtful book exists for readers who need it; for anyone fighting their way out or searching for a clear path. I can't wait to share it with kids who need it!” —Lucy Knisley, author of Kid Gloves and Relish
“I loved this book! It is for any of us who have been othered by our upbringing. This book lets you know that the journey out is worth it.” —Shelby Criswell, author of Queer As All Get Out
“While the circumstances of growing up in a strict orthodox household are highly individual, the feelings of loneliness and confusion mixed with hope are universal. Read it and remember.” —Rob Kirby, author of Marry Me a Little
“This tenderly-drawn journey of self-definition gave me a peek into a very different world. I loved it.” —Hazel Newlevant, author of No Ivy League
I hope you like it!!! 💖

Sorry for not posting for a lil bit I forgot tumblr existed bc I don’t have it as an app I just use the website and I changed the tab twice and here we are. I’ve also been busy doing things and pondering, as well as being silly and/or fun with my friends. Very cool times indeed anyways on Peacock they have the Advanced D&D ep I was so happy watching it omg I love community so much
Also... what does happy as a clam mean?? Ik it’s like ohh your happy and to say “as a” is used as a comparison to exaggerate how happy you are..... but like.... are clams happy? Is that a generalization of clams? What if a study were to come out saying that like most clams live very sad lives, does that then redefine the phrase “happy as a clam”? Or does it cease to exist?? Or continue on w a newfound layer of irony??? Please who put there knew that a clam was happy, so happy in fact, that they decided to dedicate an entire phrase to show how happy someone is by being compared to a clam???? I need to know. It’s destroying me (not really though)

like real people do
first date au
more here
your phone blares in your hand mid applying blush.
you narrowingly miss adding enough to look like a clown, looking down to see wilbur s flash across the screen:
see u soon :)
anxiety gnaws at you as you check the clock, should have left ten minutes ago, and keep getting ready.
Pulling into the parking lot, there’s a sign midway through about valet. you come to a stop, wait-no one comes and you pull around the side of the building, would rather die than hold up the line of cars behind you.
taking your phone out you draft a text to charlie, trying to not seem too enthusiastic about tonight as to scare him off:
hey charlie! when you pull into the restaurant the sign about valet is a lie- you backspace, hoping that doesn’t sound rude.
hey charlie! when-
his name flashes across your screen that he’s calling and you bring your fingernail to your mouth as you answer:
“Hello?”
“Hi! So i just pulled in and-“ he pauses, “This is Charlie, by the way.”
as if he forgot caller ID exists, as if you forgot who you were anxiously awaiting for-
“Yeah, Hi.”
a giggle out of you. some of the anxiety of the date wears off.
“Hi, sorry.” an awkward laugh out of him, you can feel his own anxiety radiating off the phone, “So I went inside and it turns out you need a reservation.”
you bite your lip to hold in the i told you so that’s threatening to escape through your lips.
so you didn’t exactly tell him-afraid that you’d come off as bossy or a know it all, so when you read on the website: reservations highly suggested well-you assumed he previewed the menu as well.
“imagine that,” you tease, “most popular restaurant in in town and you need a reservation. who would’ve thought?”
he snorts, “Yeah, who do they think they are?”
he pauses for half second, “I can get us a reservation in an hour, but only if you’re willing to wait?”
it’s a question, not a demand, and he pauses.
“Yeah! sure uh-there’s a bar close, if you want to go?”
he’s nodding, has to remind himself you can’t see him.
“Wait i’ll-“
“Wanna follow me?” you say gently.
his voice seems to border in being frantic, and you feel sad for him? for being so pathetic. so you’re crawling out of your car before you can stop yourself
“Drive around again, i’m standing by my car.”
it’s quiet for a second as he drives around, can hear the sound of his car in the background; must be worn with age as it squeaks and groans against him moving with it, the light humming he does and the static from his radio you can hear.
A beat up kia soul turns into your view, a mess of hair behind the wheel, crooked glasses, the way he sits up a little straighter when you come into view.
your heels click against the sidewalk as you walk to the car, acutely aware of how dressed up you are as passerby’s walk out in jeans and hoodies.
“Hi-“
“Hi. charlie-“
and he’s practically leaning out of the window with his hand, the nervous smile on his face, and you don’t say i know for the second time-instead you take his hand, a gentle shake as you introduce yourself.
“Hi, so there’s a bar down the street. it’s like, as hole in the wall as you can get but it’s a bar and it’s cheap.”
“now we’re speaking my language,” he teases, a smile pulls on his lips, “lead the way.”
and you’re blushing as you click clack back to your car, leading to the small bar.
charlie parks next to you and all but runs to your car, trying to make sure he gets to open the door for you, his hand brushing against your as you lead down the street.
“So,” you sit down, “I’m not a huge drinker. so i’ll get whatever you get.”
you’re going through your purse, about to hand him over your card (which makes him roll his eyes and push your hand away)
“I was gonna get a miller lite-“
he stops when he sees the face your making.
“not a fan?” he teases
“sorry,” you shake your head, “i was trying to hide the look of disgust.”
he laughs, “i’ll take care of you. hold on.”
he disappears to the bar, waits a second to be served before turning over his shoulder:
“what do you think of those seltzers?”
you resist the urge to ask him to elaborate before he does, “like a white claw or whatever?”
you shrug, “never had one.”
he looks at you carefully, knocks his hand against the table and nods, walks back to the bar.
he comes back a few minutes later, and he sits across from you, slides you the two cans:
“So. Pineapple or watermelon, take your pick.”
You bite your lip to resist the urge to tell him how nice it is, picking the watermelon and sliding it over, carefully opening it and taking a sip.
“not bad. wanna try?”
you slide it over to him and he hesitates, like he’s waiting for you to say that’s gross or that men have cooties or some childish line like that. instead he takes it, slides his overs:
“Drink up.”
“cheers.”
he clinks the side of the beer can with you, and you’re waiting for the awkward first date to hit, where you’re both desperately trying to find something to say, but instead, charlie immediately launches into a story.
the two of you talk the whole time; there’s banter (“if you think Nicholas Cage is the best actor of your time i think that’s a red flag.” “That’s a red flag?!” he sounds exhausted, but the smile says he’s enjoying this. “And not that i forgot to make an entire reservation”)
By the time there’s finally a lull in conversation, the bar has cleared out and he picks up his phone and sees the reservation time is long gone.
he makes a face, holds his phone out- “Oh-. Looks like we talked through our date. fuck. what-“
you know he’s about to say what a horrible first date and you were just thinking how great this one was-
“i know how you can make it up to me,” you’re smiling, “This weekend. We can get ice cream.”
“is that your price?”
“i’d do anything for ice cream.”
he takes your hand in his gently, the tips of his fingers touching yours and settles back into the seat with the smirk of someone who is fully enjoying this:
“it’s a date.”
