hi i'm sarah πŸ‘‹πŸ» 30s, she/her, east coast canadian

i am queer, polyamorous, neurodivergent, and sex positive, and regularly post about things that are 18+, please do not interact with me if you're a minor!

primarily into 911 and bucktommy right now, but please expect iwtv, heated rivalry, and other fandoms to pop up semi-regularly!

always here for fic and gif/icon/header requests!! i make no promises on timeline but i love doing them and always welcome ideas 🩷 open to most characters and ships, but please no buddie or eddie diaz.

MOSTLY POSTING ABOUT

characters are always [first name] [last name] if they have a last name or [show] [name] if they don't, ships are tagged with the ship name if there is one and [person] x [person] if not, and friendships are [person] and [person] in alphabetical order.

currently tagging posts containing spoilers, bts content, interviews, etc:

  • relating to 911 season 10: #911 spoilers for episode content (for 1 week after episodes air) and #911 s10 for general s10 information. any spec will be tagged both #911 spoilers and #911 spec
  • relating to interview with the vampire s3: #iwtv spoilers and #iwtv s3. any spec will be tagged both #iwtv spoilers and #iwtv spec

now trying to tag nsfw images and any explicit sexual text with #horny posting if you want to block that tag!

trying to avoid anything super negative but if i wade into the drama waters it'll be tagged #911 discourse

if there's anything i post that needs a filter tag, let me know and i'll do my best!

OTHER TAGS

Listening to Hotel California on the store radio and they muted the word "kill" when he says "but they just can't kill the beast" like what are we doing here has humanity not suffered enough

Update: they played it again and also muted "stab" from the line "they stab it with their steely knives". Insane.

They fuck it with their steely knives but they just can't fuck the beast

"come to my sister's wedding!!" (we've had one failed date) turned into "watch me, the love of your life, break down while you can't do anything about it" (we've been broken up for as long as we ever dated) real quick πŸ˜”

special thanks for the inspo jess @sad-girl-hours23!

Everybody needs that one friend who's better at piracy than you so you can ask for links to tv shows or perhaps movies and they just Have them. They're like genies. This is a priceless gift when unfamiliar links scare you when you try to google Watch free online yourself. Very literally it does not have a price. You aren't paying for it

All the people tagging this as "I'm that friend" how does it feel being the backbone of society

Proud to report that since making this post I have gotten better at piracy. I'm your local pdf dealer. I have a sizable collection of shit I'm not even reading. The shows and movies continue to vex me if they're not on one of like three websites I'm familiar with despite generally being Far Easier than books but that's just my special talent

Update 2: I can pirate anything. I'd download a car. I have a Very Legal I Prommy communal ebook sharing server, for my pdfs. Fuck with me

Wattpad users: AO3 is an archive. It collects fanworks. You curate your own reading by learning to use the search function, checking boxes on what you want or don't want to read. There are several guides already circulating around on how to use AO3, not to mention the FAQ on the site itself. There is no app for AO3 because the site works well.

There will be themes and genres that give you the ick but your disgust is not the same as morality or standards. You don't have to read those fics. Just go back to your search and look at the tags for what you want. The archive is for everyone who creates fanworks. Lurk and learn how to use it, and appreciate that you get no ads whatsoever. Take ownership of your fanwork experience and be polite.

AO3 writers: lock down your accounts. Whenever we get an influx of new people barging around like entitled tourists in a small artisan eatery, we end up with a headache. Those who learn to behave will eventually get their chance to enjoy the really good stuff, and the petulant loudmouths will leave full of complaints because they didn't get their way, and that is how it should be.

AO3 volunteers: thank you guys for bearing the brunt of any nonsense that's coming your way

Fata Morgana

a superior mirage caused by warm air resting on patches of colder air in an atmospheric duct that acts like a refracting lens. Objects on the horizon could appear to be mirrored, distorted, or float. This form of mirage could be the reason for the Flying Dutchman Legend.

it is a rookie mistake to assume that the person making deeply anachronistic, inaccurate, and fairytale-esque knightposts knows nothing about real knights. i know all about real knights. i just think overseeing the farmland on your estate, explicitly being in it for (more) land and money, fighting less than half the year, and dying of cholera is sort of boring while swearing undying oaths is really sexy
