Screenshot from dodgebolt, that went crazy
goodbye owl house, and thanks for everything <3
do u ever see someone elses headcannon for ur fave character and its like….. i completely respect that u have the right to that headcannon, i will not confront u at all and start needless bullshit over that headcannon…. but i will silently sit here and give you the sideways glance of the century
me, out loud: hey that’s cool we all have our own interpretations and i support you as part of fandom regardless
me, in my head: ….but you’re wrong
I would just like to remind everyone that this is the mature, reasonable, and sensible response.
I think that in splatoon world they don’t have gender but they did find out about gender from looking at old human stuff and have splooquizzes (splatoon uquizzes) that are like “are you a boy or girl?” And take them for fun and are like “oh you’re looking so boy today” or “so fresh! Very girl.”
jonathan sims, everyone.
[Image description: Brian David Gilbert videos redrawn as Magnus Archives fanart. Jon has brown skin, graying hair, and glasses. He wears sweaters over button-up shirts.
Towards the beginning of “Solving the mystery behind the Institute in 15 minutes,” Jon says “Let’s begin with this statement…” Behind him are three connected pieces of paper with anglerfish, deliveries, and coffin on them. The second shows much further into the video. Jon has taken off his sweater and let his hair down. He is gesturing wildly at the much-fuller wall under red lighting, pointing at the connection between Elias and Jonah Magnus and saying “Jonah. Take fucking notes.”
In the middle of “Asexual Archivist wastes 3 weeks of his life finding the UK’s hottest avatar,” a tired-looking Jon holds up a photo of Daisy. In one she looks like an average person, holding a cane, and in the other she is taller, her eyes are glowing, she billows smoke, and is holding a gun. He says “Daisy comes in two forms: Twink and Twunk.”
Towards the end of “I read all 181810 statements in the magnus institute so you don’t have to,” Jon gestures towards the category “Eh” on the wall, saying “It’s the catch all. It includes “the worm sex one, evil fucked up art class, band that makes you die, going mad in suburbs, and big pig eats [text cut off].” The only other readable heading is “Statements about men in the film industry,” which includes “cringe fail spider film.” Other bullet points say: Jonah is a real bastard about it, book club hunt each other for sport, and Michael harasses a literal child.
Towards the beginning of “How to craft the perfect ritual” (written with missing and backwards letters), Jon stares directly at the camera as the video distorts and eyes break through the white screen behind him. Large text says “I will wield this tape recorder as a warlock wields” [text cuts off].
Martin approaches Jon just after and asks “I’ll - do you need tea or anything?” Jon says, “Tea..yeah, I think that’d be good.” Things have returned to normal filming conditions.
Jon gestures at a yellow cat during “Calculate how likely your pet is to survive the apocalypse with my 100% legitimate formula” and says “So I’m using my roommate’s cat, The Admiral!”
Near the end of “Asexual Archivist wastes 3 weeks of his life finding the UK’s hottest avatar,” Jon prepares to climb into a coffin and says “And now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to throw myself into the buried now.”

Heyo! With pride month starting, here's a quick comic on pride Etiquette, a short guide / general tips on treating lgbt+ people, for the new, curious, and those who forgot!
1) Treat people's identities as the indisputable truth. Even if you don't think they fit the definition, even if you don't understand (the identity), even if you think they're lying, even if they're a bad person. It's not your job nor your business to tell people what to call themselves. Unless they ask for your opinion, only the individual can make that decision.
*There's very few times when an identity can actually be harmful. This includes predatory labels, labels that are bigoted by definition, or people identifying with culture-specific labels when they're not part of that culture. Otherwise, leave them be!
2) Respect and use people's pronouns, regardless of how you feel about them! If you don't know how they work, ask! If you accidentally misgender someone, correct yourself and move on! No need for lengthy or dramatic apologies. However, also make sure to ask when it's appropriate to use them! Someone may not be out to parents, certain friends, etc, and will ask you to purposefully misgender them for safety.
3) LGBT+ people are not responsible for someone else's anti-lgbt+ views! Strange, unbelievable or confusing identities do not cause bigots to be bigots- the lgbt+ community was made because we don't fit society's box, don't fall into the trap of forcing people into another one! If they're not actually hurting anyone, then leave them be!
4) You're not expected to learn every single lgbt+ term / identity. Nobody knows all of them, not even lgbt+ people, so don't worry about it! Simply learn and ask questions as you go!
5) If you're curious about someone's identity, ask if they're comfortable with questions first! There's no harm in educating yourself, but sometimes we get tired of being walking encyclopedias!
Thanks for reading, and happy Pride!!!
An incomplete list of things that employers commonly threaten that are 100% illegal in the United States
- "We'll fire you if you tell others how much you're making" The National Labor Relations Act of 1935 specifically protects employees who discuss their own wages with each other (you can't reveal someone else's wages if you were given that information in the course of work, but you can always discuss your own or any that were revealed to you outside of work duties)
- "If we can't fire you for [discussing wages/seeking reasonable accommodation/filing a discrimination complaint/etc], we'll just fire you for something else the next day." This is called pretextual termination, and it offers your employer almost no protection; if you are terminated shortly after taking a protected action such as wage discussion, complaints to regulatory agencies, or seeking a reasonable accommodation, you can force the burden onto your employer to prove that the termination wasn't retaliatory.
- "Disparaging the company on social media is grounds for termination" Your right to discuss workplace conditions, compensation, and collective action carries over to online spaces, even public ones. If your employer says you aren't allowed to disparage the company online or discuss it at all, their social media policy is illegal. However, they can forbid releasing information that they're obligated to keep confidential such as personnel records, business plans, and customer information, so exercise care.
- "If you unionize, we'll just shut this branch down and lay everyone off" Threatening to take action against a group that unionizes is illegal, full stop. If a company were to actually shut down a branch for unionizing, they would be fined very heavily by the NLRB and be opening themselves up to a class-action lawsuit by the former employees.
- "We can have any rule we want, it's only illegal if we actually enforce it" Any workplace policy or rule that has a "chilling effect" on employees' willingness to exercise their rights is illegal, even if the employer never follows through on any of their threats.
- "If you [protected action], we'll make sure you never work in this industry/city/etc again." Blacklisting of any kind is illegal in half the states in the US, and deliberately sabotaging someone's job search in retaliation for a protected action is illegal everywhere in the US.
- "Step out of line and you can kiss your retirement fund/last paycheck goodbye." Your employer can never refuse to give you your paycheck, even if you've been fired. Nor can they keep money that you invested in a retirement savings account, and they can only claw back the money they invested in the retirement account under very specific circumstances.
- "We'll deny that you ever worked here" not actually possible unless they haven't been paying their share of employment taxes or forwarding your withheld tax to the government (in which case they're guilty of far more serious crimes, and you might stand to gain something by turning them in to the IRS.) The records of your employment exist in state and federal tax data, and short of a heist that would put Oceans 11 to shame, there's nothing they can do about that.
You’re Awful, I Love You
A/N: Remus birthday fic time!! Quick shoutout to @vintage-squid for listening to my ramblings about this fic and helping me with ideas for it! Title is taken from the song Love Me Dead by Ludo! (also all the sides are friends in this AU bc I said so!)
Warnings: vague King Creativity mention, nudity (listen it’s canon that Remus sleeps ‘in the buff’ but it’s only sort of implied in the fic), flirting, teasing, kissing, cuddling, making out, implied/referenced NSFW (nothing actually happens they’re just kind of horny), food, mentions of eating things you probably shouldn’t, sympathetic Remus, sympathetic Janus, Remus being Remus, swearing (lmk if anything should be added!)
-
It was relatively quiet when Janus crept down the mindscape’s hallway. He could hear the sound of a movie playing from the living room- a quick peek revealed that Patton, Logan, Roman, and Virgil were watching Tangled, and they more or less resembled the movie’s title with how curled up they were together. Janus rolled his eyes, and continued on to his destination: Remus’s room. It was just a little bit past midnight, making it officially the twenty-fifth of June- Remus’s birthday (although technically speaking as sides they were never really born, and technically he should have shared Roman’s birthday, considering that they were twins, but Remus instead chose the day he first appeared… which was another can of worms entirely as it could sometimes bring on troublesome memories for Remus due to the… split, for lack of a better term).
Lost in thought, Janus hadn’t entirely realized he had made it to Remus’s door until he nearly walked past it. He shook his head, as if he were trying to dislodge the thoughts. Remus was doing much better when it came to things with his brother, and while he still didn’t really want people to make a big fuss out of his birthday, he was more open to celebrating it. Hence why Janus was creeping through the halls to wish his boyf- Remus, a happy birthday.
