i just finished nona in time to finish this drawing. i love nona and i love dogs. i learned the meaning of puppy love in this book and i know its true bc my dog only ever wants me to hold his canines with my fingers.

i really hope that all the fan art done by all the great artists on this site encourages people to read this series who havent yet done so. wholesome isnt the right word but it sure is full of gay necromancers and a dash of wholesomeness, much spookiness and the right amount of snark. which is a lot of snark.
Still thinking about The Last of Us:
- There's something about Ellie inheriting her gun from Frank that scratches the itch in my brain.
- A baby queer inheriting something from a queer elder.
- A queer elder who got to live passing down an object of protection to a baby queer whose superpower is that she lived
- The mirrored role both Ellie and Frank play(ed) in Joel and Bill's lives.
Yeah. Itched scratched.
A small PSA to all those new to dealing with the porn bots that Tumblr now has a fresh wave of – I understand that when you go to report them, you want to report them as "[containing] sexually explicit material", but don't do that. Report them as spam instead.
These are spam bots flooding tags and the website in general with spam links. They often do not have anything sexually explicit on their blog (although they often have implicit material). Plus, these two reports get very different results. Reporting explicit material gets the bot slapped behind an 18+ wall, so minors can't check if they're a bot or not. Reporting spam gets the bot taken down.
Remember, folks: when dealing with a bot, report spam, not smut!
at some point you have to realize that you actually have to read to understand the nuance of anything. we as a society are obsessed with summarization, likely as a result of the speed demanded by capital. from headlines to social media (twitter being especially egregious with the character limit), people take in fragments of knowledge and run with them, twisting their meaning into a kaleidoscope that dilutes the message into nothing. yes, brevity is good, but sometimes the message, even when communicated with utmost brevity, requires a 300 page book. sorry.
