Reminder To Vote In The European Elections On May 23rd

hey! since we’re very close to pride month, friendly reminder to use cishet instead of straight! let’s not forget about straight trans people!

This was recorded by the Portsmouth Sinfonia in an experiment where all the members of the orchestra would swap instruments with each other and attempt to play them to the best of their ability.

headcanon: most of the avid seafaring nations are basically gyroscopic. you know, like chickens. they have insanely good balance and are possibly immune to seasickness. this isn't a natural trait and is acquired with practice.

bonus headcanon: that PotC scene of Norrington calmly walking down the stairs as his ship gets utterly obliterated around him even though realistically the shockwaves should be knocking him around? like he's just fucking immune to the laws of physics? yeah seafaring nations can actually pull that off. Arthur does it the most because you gotta admit it's very British but Kiku and Alfred do it too on occasion. Yao used to be really good at it but hasn't been able to do it in centuries, which has resulted in a LOT of "when I was young" rants.

addendum bonus: Alfred is really, really good at mechanical bull riding too. and likely non-mechanical bull riding.

I like to imagine that as he gets older, Riz stress bakes. Especially when he's stuck on a case, he pulls out a cookbook and starts making cookies and muffins and cakes. He like measuring out the precise amounts and having control over something and getting things to come out perfectly every time (because baking is a science) helps relax him from spiraling. He learned from Adaine. She learned from Jawbone and since Riz refuses to seek therapy, Adaine passes along Jawbone's tips in her own secret way to make sure Riz doesn't go crazy. So when the Bad Kids suddenly get a knock ont he door only to find plate after plate of baked good wrapped in plastic sitting on their porch they know someone needs to go do a wellness check on Riz.

@askgerame i wasn’t really sure all the details of your blog, so im really sorry that this is probably all wrong lol. But i figured i would just mix these two asks together so…..here you go:

To cis lesbian who said ‘we lost one’ when Elliot Page came out as transgender with he/they pronouns, fuck off. Gender identity and sexuality is a long and bumpy road and if your first reaction to someone being comfortable in their own skin is ‘oh now I can’t relate to them so I will be transphobic’, you are the problem. If Elliot Page uses he/they pronouns, then Elliot Page uses he/they pronouns.

If you have got a problem with that then you can fuck right off to space and die there. 

*Respect Elliot Page’s pronouns or burn*

Trump's federal jackboots are testing the waters in Portland. Where is next?

The ACLU is fighting them in court, but we all need to expose this and do everything we can to stop them before it's too late.
