They look like a married couple in therapy

Hehe hiiii

i’m going to make this a proper pinned post :)

You can call me Tiggster or whatever similar (i don’t like my name on the internet :))

i use she/her pronouns !!

i dont really know what to say, i just use this as a place to put all my interests!!

all these tags should be in the pinned tags, but use this also as a fandom list

(little fyi, my ‘random rambles’ tag is how i sort my non-fandom related posts!!)

sometimes i wish the gay people in my phone were gay people in my house. where i could give them snacks and blankets and hear the sound of their laughter

life series if it was awesome

Holding up snarky signs doesn't seem to be working.

For me, it isn't about whether this action is appropriate or not. It's about how this kind of action is inevitable.

I'm going to let Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. explain in a quote no one seems to post during his annual holiday.

"It is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots. It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that they have no other alternative than to engage in violent rebellions to get attention. And I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard. And what is it America has failed to hear?"

If you only speak up about a supercharger catching fire and ignore the unheard, you are prioritizing a thing over people.

Benvenuto, welcome.

Here is the lay of the land. Please read:

IN SHORT: Admin is a legal adult. Blog will contain NSFW content, so no minors please (MDNI). Hateful behavior is not tolerated.

More guidelines below.

Detail from Masaccio’s “Holy Trinity” [Inscription: IO FUI GIA QUEL CHE VOI SIETE, E QUEL CH’ IO SONO VOI ANCOR SARETE]

Admin is over 20.

Some content here will get a little nasty and NSFW. I ask minors not to engage with this blog. I’ve seen multiple people try to be slick and sneak in, or just flat-out ignore this rule. I’m not comfortable with underage people seeing it get freaky in here, so if I find out you’re a minor you will be blocked.

I feel like this goes without saying, but just to be clear– I refuse to engage with hate speech, discrimination, harassment, right-wing ideology, or anything else along that line. End of discussion. [Edit: I support a free Palestine, Sudan, Ukraine, etc. Foreign occupation/colonization/genocide must be stopped worldwide!]

I also thought that this went without saying, but apparently I need to clarify it to some people. If you’re a zoophile (bestiality), MAP (pedophile), etc… For the love of god, don’t follow me. It doesn’t matter if you’re “anti-contact” or whatever else. I don’t care what anyone is into sexually as long as it isn’t illegal– these categories are illegal, and they are illegal for a reason. They are not kinks, they are serious psychological issues. There is a difference. I genuinely encourage you to seek help if you have any of these tendencies.

Please don't send me anything serious: I'm not here to give drastic life or health advice, and I'm definitely not qualified to do so. I can give you encouragement or tips, absolutely! Go right ahead, I don’t mind it at all. But if you need serious help, please talk to a doctor, your family, or another trustworthy person in your life. I’m just some person on the internet– I’m not able to fully help you in the way that you would need. I don't take myself too seriously, and I encourage you all to do the same.

Please don't ask me to weigh in on any controversies within the Ghost fan base. (Or controversies in general.) I don't know anything about the majority of Ghost drama, and frankly, I don't really care. I will address situations on my own terms if I want/need to, but for the most part I’m staying out of it. I don’t like participating in that kind of stuff. I'm just here to have a good time and be nice to people.

In short, I’m going to block you if you cross the boundaries I set above, or if you act like an asshole. And if you treat me respectfully, I will treat you with respect in return. It’s that easy!

My grasp of Italian is shaky, and for that I am sorry. Please just pretend that I am not using an online translator.

Grazie, ciao!

A Bit of Mirkwood World Building:

The amethyst deceiver mushroom, Middle-earth style.

Commonly called Violet Despair, Violet Deceiver, False Delight, Purple Liar, and Shadow Deceiver in Westron.

*elvish name pending someone better at Sindarin than me devising one.

They grow in the southern part of Mirkwood, near Dol Guldur, and in the poisoned lands around Minas Morgul, where instead of arsenic they absorb the Shadows of the place, becoming darker and richer in color, and capable of swamping you with despair and paranoia if you eat them.

They predate the Shadow, but without a source of evil and corruption to feed upon they were nearly harmless: used often for dyes and decorations, although rarely for eating, for even then the Violet Deceiver was known for feeding on the rot and echo of darker feelings, and thus their flesh often became tainted with these sensations and capable of inducing fear, sorrow, and dismay in those who ate them.

Those fungi which found Evil on which to feed were, of course, much worse.

They are not quite bioluminescent, but their coloring is vibrant enough that in the black shadows of Mirkwood's trees and Mordor's gloom, they can trick the eye into thinking that they glow; but it is a glow that sheds no light to drive back the surrounding dark.

The Rangers of Ithilien encounter them much more rarely than do the elves of Mirkwood, for the Rangers do not brave the lands close to Minas Morgul; but they have come across them often enough to know to be wary of them also. (Among the Rangers, the mushrooms are sometimes referred to as "Violet Joys," as a form of bitter irony.)

Their spores exude a mild compulsory effect, tempting those who smell them to eat them, even when they know better.

The initial taste of the mushroom is sweet, almost too sweet, thick and cloying; this is followed quickly by a sharp sensation of peppery heat, and then a heavy nauseating muskiness (although few people are paying much attention to the taste at that point; mostly the latter is noted as a foul, rotten aftertaste lingering for a while in the mouths of the survivors).

Their scent is distinctive: alluring and floral, like lilies or lilacs, but with a hint of the sickly-sweet stench of rotting flesh lurking beneath that floral fragrance. By the time you notice the latter, you are already close enough to be imperiled.

Consuming even a single mushroom is enough to trigger the effects, engendering overwhelming sensations of despair and paranoia. Most victims report simultaneous symptoms of both, but some experience primarily hopelessness, while some suffer predominantly from the fear, and others vacillate between the two extremes.

Eating more than three or four will leave one in a fraught emotional and even hallucinatory state for several hours, or even days.

There have been no known cases of fatal poisonings from consuming the mushrooms, but many folk—elves and mortals—have died while under the effects, whether as a result of blundering into some peril they could not properly comprehend, being too absorbed or apathetic to defend themselves against another threat, or from breaking under the despair and terror and taking their own lives before their senses clear.

The Unhoused Shades that haunt Southern Mirkwood are prone to lingering near the mushrooms as well—or perhaps it is the other way around, and it is the rot of those trapped souls upon which the mushrooms feed.

Either way, the sight of them is a sign of peril.

These mushrooms were devised for @tathrin's fic And In The Darkness to Unmake Them and @babybat98's fic The Last War of the North, but are offered free for use of anyone writing in the Tolkien fandom who wishes to add them to their stories.

Ideally we ask you to link back to this post so that other readers can likewise make use of this bit of shared world building, but that's not a hard requirement for inclusion in your works.

All you have to do it not claim the idea for your own, and continue to freely share it with anyone else who wants to play too. Thank you!

my blog is just one long love letter to myself and all the people i used to be

Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism 👍🏾 you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.
