AO3 IS DOWN EVERYBODY PANIC

seeing single-name tags on ao3 fics that have romance are so funny to me because it automatically means that character is a third wheel for the whole fic

play a nightingale sang in berkeley square by vera lynn or everyday by buddy holly in any public space and see who starts crying

i was raised on so much "girls are better than boys" that now i like girls

reblogging with these photos of robert with a snake

He is probably one of the fae

since the pjo fandom refers to rick riordan as uncle rick then should we start referring to neil gaiman as uncle neil or do we have to stick with 'the coraline guy'

eyeliner is difficult but i'm more so

i was today years old when i found out roger taylor apparently co-owns a gay bar???

Morning! 🤞🏻😊I'm entering the fandom recently and I hope you can help me :( What political stance do the boys have? Have they ever spoken to any political party? Thanks a lot❤️

hola! 

for roger i’d recommend listening to his solo stuff (or just looking up the lyrics) for a broad sense of his political leanings (gangsta’s are running this world, dear mr. murdoch, nazis 1994, foreign sands, freedom train, my country, people on streets, etc). he’s never publicly endorsed a political party to my knowledge, and is generally disparaging of governmental bureaucracy as a whole. he’s also a patron of cornwall pride

“I think politicians are shells. Their skins are so thick I don’t think anybody could talk sense to them […] What war-like twats we are. I couldn’t believe how quick we were to commit to another war. […] I don’t trust any of them. - [undated interview]

“Everybody’s got an opinion and I was just lucky enough to have an outlet for mine,” he adds. “I prefer to stay out of politics, really. I don’t live in a fluffy, badger-saving world.” - [2013]

credited as a, potential, signatory to bob geldof’s open letter re: the damage brexit would wreak on the UK music industry (most likely our roger, however no distinction is made and it could be DD’s roger taylor – most likley our’s.) [2018]

brian:

speaks here about being a conservative voter for the majority of his life [2010]

“I’ve often labelled myself as a Conservative – something that doesn’t always go down too well from a member of a rock band. But, just as a gradual realisation of what farming actually did to animals (starting with veal calves and foie gras) made me become a vegetarian, once I knew what a David Cameron Government had in store for Britain’s wildlife, and badgers in particular, I knew I had to square up and fight against his particularly nasty kind of Conservatism.” [2012, daily mail as source but it’s an article written by brian]

“May insists he is “completely non-aligned” politically, believing that animal welfare should be a cross party issue. “I’m not a party member and I don’t intend to be,” he adds.” [2012]

“But right now I would find it impossible to vote for EITHER of these men.” [friday 22nd November, 2019, following ITV leaders debate]

makes semi-regular anti-brexit posts on insta also!! 

sorry, i would have linked you some of brian’s insta posts re: brexit but i just subscribed for a free trial to the bloody spectator and read the most idiotic and nonsensical ‘article’ potentially ever written for the purpose of answering this ask and it has drained me. 

i’m guessing it’s just brian and roger you’re interested in! the best anyone can really do re: freddie and john is educated guesses tbh xx hope this is helpful!

Writing Dark Romance that Doesn't Glorify Abuse

Hiya fellow writers of tumblr, i'm back from the dead.

i think it's pretty well-known at this point if you're on writeblr or booklr that most of the time, a 'dark romance' book will include romanticisation of abuse, an age gap that borders on creepy, or something equally messed up.

i don't plan on writing a dark romance novel anytime soon, but i was wondering; what are your ideas or tips on how to write this genre without glorifying all the abuse?
