Arya Is So Cool Vote For Her She Reminds Me Of My Own OC (though More Fantasy And More Traumatized XD)

Ok, if anyone is looking for a Fire Emblem Awakening longfic… I just read this work by jonagold on AO3 and enjoyed it so, so much. It explores the relationship between the future children and their present selves after the game’s end, particularly how the young Lucina grows up in a time of peace with the her from an alternate future in her life…. It reads like a coming-of-age novel and for me, it was a treat to find.

I take the Nugget of Friendship gladly, and will gladly share it with both irls and mutuals: @theoptimistictabby435 @theoctopuscats @lizardonatoadstool @cynanan @printerpenguin @nervoussaladbard @lane-thepencilthing @anyconstellation @bugenjoyer @that-bug-kid @tiny-fairy-friend @jtranageder1 @jiggityjog

This is the Nugget of Friendship.

It is not given lightly. Yet I give it to you.

Yes. I mean YOU.

Now shoo.

Pass on the Nugget of Friendship.

First art post for Oakie this year! We've been doing more digital art recently since we got a new laptop/tablet. Thank you @jtranageder1 for voting for our favorite enby acorn!

(the more people vote for Oakie in this poll and like or comment to let us know, the more art we will post)

Okay, for anyone interested in the science here, I have a few clarifications.

First, early fossils of land plants date to around 433 million years ago, during the Silurian period, not to the Precambrian (defined as before around 540 million years ago).

Second, Tiktaalik was not the first land animal; it is known for being the earliest/one of the earliest vertebrates to walk on land, but arthropods got there first. Early centipedes and millipedes ventured out of the water relatively soon after the plants (around 425 million years ago, also during the Silurian), while Tiktaalik evolved around 375 million years ago, during the Devonian period.

can you imagine plants on land in the precambrian like aw fuck yeah fish cant even eat us anymore this owns and then tictilak shows up

rb and put in tags how many ppl your tumblr icon has killed

Sally sells #identity confusion by the sea shore.

Oakie just won in the semifinals!

It was insanely close- 50.1% to 49.9%. Each of your votes were crucial! They will be in the finals April 4 - April 6, and I will post about it and do the same art thing as previously!

Thank you all for voting!

I’m gonna say this again since folks keep tagging popular blogs in that tumblr blackout post with not a second thought about how disabled folks will be affected by it

First off- starting an indefinite blackout from the start of disability pride month IS ableism. Intentional or not. I do not care if it’s a “statement about accessibility.” You cannot talk like you care about disabled people by silencing our voices. Majority of disabled folks I’ve seen have been explaining over and over again why this is a monumentally shit idea which is just going to hurt us.

Second- We are not Reddit. So you can’t copy paste something that worked there and hope that’ll work here. Do we not remember the blackouts in the past that did not fucking work? Also- I say this as someone who is disabled and cares deeply about accessibility- there is an extreme difference in the severity of the issues that are going on with Reddit and what’s going on here. Poorly review tumblr, stop buying crabs, stop fucking blazing posts. Dude. We are also not in a union or employed by tumblr. WE CAN’T BE SCABS.

Thirdly- I’m presuming that most people who’ve been reblogging the og post have other social media sites they can go to. That they can easily go to like, Instagram, that they have friends irl, and they have the ability to leave the house. A lot of disabled people on here don’t have that. They’ve been bullied off social media platforms like Instagram or Twitter or Tiktok for being disabled, they don’t have a solid friendship group in real life and some of them can’t actually leave the house without help. I don’t want disabled people to be completely alone during disability pride month. They deserve to at least deserve to keep their support network on the funny hellsite.

And if I sound angry it’s because I am. I’m angry about disabled people being lowest priority yet again. I’m angry at our own month being used against us because of “accessibility”. I’m angry thinking about disabled people being isolated during a time that should be celebratory. I’m not being chronically online or overreacting or “trying to be an activist.” I’m just a disabled person who would absolutely be negatively impacted by this blackout that has apparently been timed with our accessibility needs in mind but no caring for how disabled people will be effected.

I don’t know if the plans have been updated. Honestly I struggled to even read the og post because of the font and the inaccessible use of language. But I do want ableds to know that they cannot say they’re participating in this blackout to benefit disabled people.

Feel free to tag anyone you want in this post btw I want ableds to understand

I’m curious - people always seem surprised that multiple siblings are queer, as if it’s amazing the gay lightning struck twice so close together.

But human variation is down to our genes and external factors. Siblings are logically more likely to both/all be queer than not.

So a wee poll if you don’t mind!

Anyone can take part, there should be an option for anyone but please let me know in notes if I missed anyone.

For reference: queer is anyone who wouldn’t describe themselves as heterosexual or cis-gendered or allo-sexual. Anyone we would include in the queer group. And if you’re not including people by their own identification, we can have words after…

Notes:

If you only have one sibling use the relevant all option.

If you have an issue with the word queer I truly don’t want to hear about it - that’s your choice, this is mine.

Reblog if you fancy! If you don’t then no worries, but if you can it would be nice to get a lot of replies!

And hey everyone, happy Pride!
