The best piece of advice I ever got was not meant as advice, but as an edict. If I was going to threaten people as a joke, it had to be so far out of proportion with what happened that it would be obvious I was joking. This changed how I expressed frustration with others. It then changed how I expressed frustration with myself.

Not “I’m going to hit you” but “I am going to buy a tuna sub from the gas station and hide it under the seat of your car”

Not “I’m going to kill myself” but “I am going to walk into the desert and let the scarabs take me”

The other side then happened. When I mess something up, instead of saying it’s bad and perpetuating negative thoughts, swing hard the other way.

Not “this art is terrible” but “this shall be framed and mounted on the wall in my museum exhibition as testament to the suffering I had to overcome”

Have been doing this since high school. It was my drama teacher who asked me to please stop scaring the actors. The other half of the edict was that I had to say it in a polite tone, and end it with either please or thank you.

Life changing. 10/10 Mr Muëller. Highly reccomend.

Danny is reading peacefully in his new room at Wayne Manor when there's suddenly a commotion outside his door. Next thing he knows Bruce comes storming through the door.

"Danny did you lie to me about your past!?" he asked calmly.

It’s the way that when Buck told Eddie that he and Natalia broke up, Eddie said, “welcome back to the world of the living, Buck; you were missed.” It’s the way that at the graveyard, Eddie said, “to be honest, you haven’t been the same since [the lightning strike] happened… but how could you be?” It’s the way that, to Eddie, Buck died for 3 minutes and 17 seconds, but he never came back to life. It’s the way that when Buck said he broke up with Natalia because all she wanted to talk about was death, Eddie saw the light in Buck that he hadn’t seen since before he was struck. It’s the way he missed the Buck he was before he died, but didn’t push him. The way he said, “you don’t have to be anything for anybody,” when Buck said he felt that he had to try to be the “same old” guy he was before the lightning. The way that even though Eddie did miss the old Buck, and he did want to be there for him, he gave him the space he needed to heal, even if it meant healing with Natalia. It’s the way that, when Buck told him that he broke up with Natalia, he raised an eyebrow and immediately welcomed him back. In that moment, Buck was alive again and Eddie had him back. It's the way he loved Buck back to life. It’s the way Eddie loves him to his core.

hi sorry is there any other way to donate to helpgazachildren? sadly it said my country (east asia) does not support donations to the recipient, and my country only has "plan international" ngo for official donation but I never saw people mentioned this organization so I am not sure how trustworthy it is. sorry again for bothering you!

hello thanks for sending this in. unfortunately we don't have another way to donate other than the paypal.

helpgazachildren is not an organization or official charity but rather a donation drive managed by Hussam in Rafah who is a close friend of a family friend of mine, and through this became a trusted friend of ours from the past month and a half we've known him. you can read the FAQ of the notion site for more information.

if you check my helpgazachildren tag on here, you can see how the money directly impacts people in Rafah so you know that the paypal owner, Hussam, is a trustworthy individual. You can also see the visual receipts/proof of purchases on the notion site.

the people in the north of gaza we are sending money to are also family friends who have taken it upon themselves to scavenge for food and other necessities for the community as much as possible. they've taken it upon themselves to risk their lives trying to find any food to feed the literally starving families of the north. the money sent will be dedicated to purchasing aid.

About the Stargazer AU, the Morningstar's/Mange's human or are they still Hell royalty in this AU?

The Magnes are humans! ^v^ That's what makes it so funny to me because they don't suspect anything, but Vaggie and Alastor can immediately sense the other's a demon/ an angel in disguise. Still, they can't be openly hostile to each other unless they want their chosen human to suddenly question why they're fighting beyond just the usual "my (daughter) charge is too good for YOU to date. Piss off." And "I do what I want, old man!" But that's NOT the main focus of this AU and we'll need some more world building to reach it, but trust me. It's going to be so, SO much FUN! Source? The amount of times I caught myself laughing maniacally as I write down my ideas, but you didn't hear that from me. XD -Bubbly💙

Could you share a simple, boring fact about vasco and machete? Like what their favorite weather is or small and inconvenient things that happen sometimes and mildly irritate them?

Vasco loves that moment when a sudden heavy rainfall is followed by an equally abrupt bright and sunny weather. He gets antsy whenever the humid, windless and oppressive weather before a storm goes on for too long, but ensuing rain and thunder make him feel exhilirated. Machete likes cool, still and dewy mornings and quiet, warm evenings. Bright sun gives him migraines. He also gets hot and cold easily.

Vasco usually keeps adjusting his ears reflexively so they stay out of the way, but sometimes he ends up sleeping on one of them by accident and wakes up with a numb ear. If Machete happens to roll on top of one and Vasco tries to change position, he might get his ear yanked hard enough to startle him.

Neither of them shed very much but some level of seasonal coat change can be observed nonetheless. Machete brushes his mane diligently to avoid leaving white dog hair in his wake. He also finds it upsetting when other people's loose hair sticks on him and his things.

#thank you for asking #answered #anonymous #Vasco #Machete #modern au #realities of being a dog person in a dog society #imagine being or living with someone with a long and dense double coat #like a Berner Sennenhund or a Samoyed #cleaning days would be intense #how do you even handle that do you brush your entire body in that case #I guess you have to

[lexluthorethicalbillionaire]

if Lex Luthor is so ethical why is he bald???? is God testing him by giving such a good man such a heavy burden?? or are his sins reflected in his shiny bald dome. will we ever know?

I read on the iInternet that this is called “ableist “ now. Think about your words and how they affect balds.

Hi Sleepy! I'm so impressed by your art, I even dug up my Tumblr account after like 10 years (yeah, I'm ancient). Your style is amazing and your writing is addictive!

So, what's next on the front of Jade and Ghost? An art? A story?

Hello! Thank you so much! (❁´◡`❁)

Ahh, 10 years ago. I was in my Hannibal and Supernatural craze back then. Good times, good times.

I have lots and lots of ideas for Ghost x Jade in the future. I want to :

Write the whole MWII campaign with Jade in it (Cold Heart series that I've left in the dust for a year now ASHDFASL;DF)

Write the MWIII campaign with Jade in it (and save Soap 😩)

Write/draw some misc. comics of Ghost and Jade visiting the Riley's graves, and Ghost visiting Jade's orphanage.

PROPOSAL AND MARRIAGE?????

The ideas won't stop flowing until the next MW comes out, don't worry 😎

(For op: idk if this exists in your universe) How was quarantining for the pandemic? Was it hard being stuck in doors 24/7 with only each other or are y'all like that regardless of the state of disease in the world?

covid didnt happen in this universe, everything in held in a parallel modern-au earth where bands are named slightly different so that i can avoid 1:1 real life consistencies

What are your boundaries to this AU?

Boundaries for my AU

I never thought about it before so things might change as time goes on but so far I really have no issues with anything as long as you credit me.

Like horror art with gore, blood, eyes etc, Is all fine! I’d actually love it haha

(Platonic or romantic) Oc x canon, canon x canon, and self shipping all that I do not care for. As long as you’re respectful, it does not matter to me. Have fun with it!

As for NSFW, I do not mind as long as it’s not straight up porn. Just don’t tag me, but always credit thank you!

Make sure to use the tag #puppeteerwally or #TPOWH (the production of welcome home)!

I’ll update when I find anymore but nothing really bothers me? lol

what happened to the collections on queerliblib.overdrive.com? i saved the link to the nonfiction for black history month collection so i could look at it later, but now it's just a 404 error and the "collections" menu is blank!

hello! so those different categories you see pop up on the OverDrive website and in Libby like ‘In Translation’ or ‘Asexual Spectrum Representation’ are curated lists that we build from the collection. We can also only have a certain number of these lists published at one time, so we rotate a few out each month. non-fiction for Black History Month, and our valentines list, were cycled out so we could have space to post a list for Women’s History Month.

we’re sorry that caused some confusion/frustration! the good news though, is that all those books are still in our collection. you can browse just our non-fiction here, and keep an eye out for relevant titles like She Called Me Woman, Bayard Rustin: a Legacy of Protest & Politics, When they Tell You to be Good, The Famous Lady Lovers, Black Queer Freedom, & more

#if you want to come back to something from a list a few weeks later it’s probably safer to save the specific title than the whole list #thank you for asking #i’m sure you weren’t the only person caught by surprise #asks

Steddie: “Please, put it DOWN.”

From this

wc: 596

Eddie wakes up to a sound of something heavy falling to the ground. His arm stretches over the sheet only to find the opposite side of the bed empty but still warm.

“Whuh?”

He props himself on his elbows, already knowing his hair must look like a crow’s nest, confused curls sticking out in every direction. He pushes out the fringe with his hand, squinting and trying to see what’s going on.

Thunk. Something bumps under the mattress and Eddie shrieks.

“Shh, be quiet!”

“Steve?”

His boyfriend’s hair shows up first, followed by his back, clad in nothing but a ratty T-shirt he stole from Eddie before they were even, well, them. Eddie recognizes it by a thumb-sized hole by the collar even in the dark room. Which reminds him.

“Why are you under the b-mph,” a sweaty hand clamps over his mouth before he can finish. Steve looks at him, something wild in his wide eyes. He presses a finger to his lips and later taps his left ear. Eddie tilts his head.

A faint sound of shuffling. Muffled voices.

Someone’s downstairs.

Panic grips his chest and a shallow breath gets caught in his lungs. Who would choose the night before Christmas morning to rob a place? In a rich neighborhood like that? Unless it’s not a regular robber – unless it’s connected to the stacks of signed NDA’s, or the lab, or – Russians?

Wait. The Night before Christmas-

Oh. Oh. Eddie fucked up.

Before he manages to scramble out of the bed, Steve found what he’s been looking for under the bed and placed himself by the doors leading out to the corridor.

“Steve-wait!”

His boyfriend wastes no time to shush him and only then Eddie notices the baseball bat filled with nails in his hands. Eddie has heard the legends, of course, but it’s the first time he sees the nail bat in the flesh, so to speak. Steve, with his hair a mess and the weapon leaned over his shoulder, looks like a wild animal ready to pounce.

“Stay here,” he tells Eddie in a harsh whisper that left little to no space to negotiate. “I’ll take care of it.”

“Noo, no. I can’t let you do that,” Eddie replies but Steve is already gone. Shit.

“Steve!” Eddie runs after him downstairs. “Please, put it down!”

The lights downstairs flickers alive, revealing two culprits responsible for the ruckus.

“Hey, Munson, what the fuck?” Red scowls at him, hands on her hips.

“I forgot,” he skips the last two steps. “I totally forgot. That’s on me.”

“Eddie,” Dustin whines. “You promised!”

“I know, I fucked up-“

“What the hell is going on?” Steve’s grip on the nail bat loosens up a bit and frustration replaces panic. His eyes dart between Eddie and the two high schoolers.

“It was supposed to be a surprise,” Max grumbles before pulling out a bag from behind her, a couple of wrapped packages peering out from the inside.

“You got…presents?” Steve frowns, confused. ��Why?”

Max looks to the side. Dustin shrugs.

“Because they love you,” Eddie takes the initiative, walking up to Steve and patiently praying away the nail bat, finger by finger. “We love you.”

“Oh,” is all Steve says but there are unshed tears in his eyes. He sniffles.

“And you weren’t supposed to be here,” Dustin grumbles and points at Eddie. “He was supposed to make sure.”

A warm hand squeezes Eddie’s and he can’t help but smile amidst all the unfair accusations. Steve grins a little, too. “You know. I think I’m actually glad we were.”

oooohhh now I need to know more about bond sickness like would it be different for a child like bruce than a kinda partner like alfred? like aside from the fact that they're omega and beta? i love your portrayal of this with grown up bruce and jason, and would love to read more of your thoughts on this... Also... probably not at all related but would LOVE to read your thoughts on this for alphas as well, like the whole grief process for an Alpha like Clark after pa kent died for example, like is the scent as obvious and kinda repulsive as it was with bruce after jason?

Definitely different! Losing a parent-pup bond is different than a romantic/partner bond. Alfred also lost his Pack Alpha and Pack Omega in one fell swoop, which doubles his pain. Bruce was still a pup, and losing his parent bond was absolutely awful, but I think Alfred probably had a worse time as an adult beta. He had no one after that -- at least Bruce had him, someone who was pack and an authority figure.

I think there are some interesting physical and mental symptoms of bond sickness, some of which Alfred could stave off and others he truly couldn't. I'm not sure Bruce would fall into bond sickness since he would still have Alfred, though I'm sure he got close. Maybe that was why Alfred desperately was trying to keep them together in those first initial days and weeks. Trying to keep Bruce alive as his last surviving pack member, you know?

I also think betas are more resilient to bond losses than alphas or omegas. Alfred could survive bond sickness while trying to take care of Bruce, because he had been -- and continues to be -- the center of the pack. The heart, the caretaker. His need to survive to take care of Bruce keeps him alive and present.

For alphas -- yes, they also push out grief like omegas do. Their scents reflect that same kind of misery, where scenting them is a physically uncomfortable thing. I think they're less likely to go into a drop like omegas do sometimes during traumatic events, but it's not impossible. Grieving alphas probably have some different quirks than omegas, but the solution is usually the same -- closeness with pack, rest, time away from other people/non pack.

I will say, I think probably the worst kinds of lost bonds are a parent losing a pup. Especially an omega losing a pup they carried. Second would be a mated alpha/omega bond breaking. Those are most likely to cause bond sickness and drops.
