Yay for pride variety!

so I did pretty much this last year, but I really wanted to remake it so it was larger, better done and included the lesbian flag because I forgot it last year

anyone who starts discourse on this will be blocked.

If you’re in the US, see if your local library has Hoopla!  They carry all five seasons of Leverage with no ads.

Hoopla is an online service libraries can provide.  The library pays for each thing people check out on Hoopla, so there is a limit to how much you can check out each month.  It’s completely free to you with no ads though.  You can watch on your browser or through Roku, Chromecast, Apple TV, or a bunch of other devices.

If you’re willing to go with physical media, your local library may have Leverage DVDs that you can check out, if they don’t have Hoopla or you want to binge faster.

Any chance you know where I can watch the first season of leverage? i know its on hulu but i really cant afford to drop the money it wants for the subscription, and im having no luck finding working streams for some reason. I really want to get into it

It used to be on Netflix but then it disappeared... It is on Amazon, but it’s only free with ads if you have Amazon Prime. And there are...captioning issues... But! If captioning isn’t a concern and you have Amazon Prime, you can watch it on there, which is what I did (though captions were definitely a concern and I sent a lot of peeved complaints in).

Aside from that, tubi appears to have Leverage available to watch free? I swear I saw a post going around a while ago where folks could watch Leverage free and with bonus stuff from the creators... But I don’t know where I saw it and who reblogged it...

Anyone else have advice as to where to watch Leverage? Help an anon get into this absolutely amazing show!!

Pride puppies!!!

kinda late but I really wanted to draw something for pride month so have some transparent pride pups!!

if you want a certain flag/pup feel free to message me for a request! ;w; I’d be happy to take a few as these were really fun and relaxing to draw

I'm having a pretty good day, but I can definitely relate to this poem.  It's one of my favorites, and it works very well with yesterday's poem. My daily posting for National Poetry Month continues with a total stranger one black day by e. e. cummings.

[blink, blink] Ok, I realize that I’m on the fringes of fandom, so I’m probably not representative of the average fan.  However, the idea that people would value visual art over writing doesn’t make sense to me.  Generally, I’ll look at a piece of visual art, admire it, and move on.  Once in a blue moon, I’ll get a piece to hang on my wall or put on a T-shirt or otherwise save.  (This isn’t anything against the art!  Massive kudos to people who make beauty in a way I never could!)  However, I’ll spend hours reading and sometimes re-reading a good piece of fan fiction.  There have been stories that have stuck with me for years, not just as head-canon, but as ways to help me understand myself and my personal philosophy.  Writers deserve every bit as much respect and support as artists!

Somewhere along the way fanart become worth more than fanfic to fandom.

Artists have Patreon accounts where people pay real money to view their art early or to access special pictures like scraps or tutorials.

Whereas writers are expected to produce more and more, faster, for nothing in return. No one wants to see our “scraps” and writers who do provide Tips and Tricks often get crap for “policing” how people write.

And it falls into the prevailing notion that somehow writing is something easy, something anyone can do.

This isn’t an attack on fanartists. You deserve to receive some sort of compensation and accolades for your work. And so do fanauthors.

Writing fic is hard work. Yes, anyone can type out a story, same as anyone can pick up a pencil to draw, but what makes the difference, what makes a good piece is the experience and talent of an author. It’s all the stories no one saw, it’s all the writing books we’ve read, it’s the classes we have attended, all rolled into a package that works weeks, months, years to bring the fandom their fic. Yes we write for ourselves but we also write to contribute to fandom - just like artists do.

We’re just the same - artists and authors - and we deserve the same respect for our work.

Canada geese are weird.  On the one hand, they’ll stand up to huge, scary animals.  On the other hand, I’ve seen a whole flock take off when a single small dog runs at them.

This is the Goose of Outrageous Self Assuredness.  Take from her example, her ludicrous and excellent poise in the face of bullying, and be confident in your place, your course, your equal validity.

Knowing and accepting all of the options makes a huge difference, too.  I suspect that many people who identify as heterosexual do so by default.  They don’t know, don’t understand, or aren’t willing to accept that they could be something else.

This was being wondered some time ago but the 1% asexuals in population is from UK census from January 1994. I think the latest studies had numbers such as 5% and hypothesis that the actual number would be closer to 10% (that would be the same as homosexuality) if people with split attraction are counted in too. Most of the population are multisexuals (bi, pan, ply, omni...) followed by heteros.

That does follow every study I’ve seen. Amazingly queer things happen when society lets people be themselves 

It breaks my heart that this is necessary.

If you publicly and unreservedly condemn the actions of Nazis in Charlottesville and elsewhere, including everything from quiet hate speech to vehicular terrorism, can you please reblog this post.

I think a few friends, a few followers, every Jew who happens across this post and my own heart could do with knowing that there are more of you out there than there are of them
