there were only three questions, but boy were they tough to choose!

hi just for fun i’m doing a simple little google survey to poll what are ppl’s favorite hiveswap trolls LOL. feel free to share! this might also help me gauge if i’ll ever do more future hiveswap fan merch too hehe

I present to y'all: an assortment of Sapphic piracy! no need to thank me! ~♡ (also I'm meaning lesbian as a broad term. they don't have specific labels confirmed. this fandom has a really weird amount of bi exclusion already and I just want to clear that up!)

isolated Joey here (potential icon?):

This sounds like something my older brother would say while hyped up on sugar and complaining about my taste.

[ID: Satan (Marvus) says "I HAVE COME TO TAKE YOU TO THE DEPTHS OF H-" MC interrupts him, saying "wow you're tall". Marvus, confused, replies "...thanks?" MC continues, "how tall are you?" Marvus thinks and says "I dunno, 6 feet 6 inches, 6 11 with the horns?" MC, blushing, says "omg 'with horns'! you are SO funny!" they then twirl Marvus's hair because they don't have their own hair. / end ID]

Satan didn't see that one coming

[image descriptions part 1:

ID 1: Skylla is sulking in a jail cell, saying, "one time I dreamt I got sent to death row because I had a countryish mullet instead of a gay alt one".

ID 2: Tyzias confides in Stelsa, "one time I dreamt a law was passed that made it illegal to say 'I'm gayer' when someone came out"

ID 3: Dave says, "one time I dreamt I met the patron saint of the gays". Nepeta does a cute pose. he continues, "she looked a bit like the Cheshire cat, but with green, red, and yellow stripes." Nepeta, now with stripes, does a threatening pose. "she could shapeshift into a human," he says as she transforms into Jade.

ID 4: Elwurd says, "one time I dreamt me and my entire class full of girls had to prepare and present an assembly to the school about Women's day". in her flashback, Bronya and Kanaya are with her in the library. she continues, "each person had to say what women are, i.e. powerful, strong, independent," while Chixie is shown at the microphone. Elwurd goes to the mic and narrates, " when it was my turn I said, 'women are gay,' and walked away for the next person to get to the mic". Kanaya says, "I mean you're not wrong". / end of IDs part one.

(longer masterpost of all ways you can help)

updated 3/6/2024 with Gaza Wound Care & We Feed Gaza. I wanted to focus on Palestinian-run grassroots initiatives that will actually reach Gazans on the ground, so all of these except eSIMs, PCRF, MAP are by Palestinians. i have verified them but please feel free to do your own vets for your peace of mind.

Remember small donations really do add up. Any amount counts, even $1!
