I don’t know who first spelled the name as “Guinevere,” but I’m forever thankful that it’s the form in most common use, because other options include “Guanhumara” “Guennuuar” “Gahunmare” and “Wenneuereia

thanks to whichever medieval person decided it was time to stop calling the queen by random horse noises

i think high heeled winter boots are the cruelest trick played on women. here’s some footwear specifically designed for cold weather and rough, slick terrain, but we went ahead and made it less functional so you can look more fuckable. don’t slip baby! that’s it that’s womenswear distilled down to its purest core

my thoughts exactly but also about high-heeled hiking boots

high heeled WHAT NOWS

But have you seen the Teva hiking/working stiletto?

UM

What the fuck

Is this a joke

I’m sure it is, but I’m not sure on who…

Until staff comes forward and gives an answer as to what is happening, all assumptions and statements on what’s going on are rumors.

zedrin-maybe:

  • There are posts from 2016 that are being shared again about NSFW. I shouldn’t have to explain that those are no longer relevant.
  • There is a post from 3 days ago that the current sweep is being caused by a bug. This is not known if it is still relevant.
  • There are rumors that this is an attempt to purge pornbots, and legit blogs are getting caught in the crossfire. This has not been confirmed.
  • There are assumptions, again based on statements from 3 days ago, that this is in response to a legal matter regarding the IRA. Again, this has not been confirmed.
  • Until staff comes forward about the current events, nothing is confirmed as of yet. If you get purged, send staff a ticket, but until we get answers no one knows what is happening. Please stop spreading posts that do not have current sources.

For those who keep asking, IRA means ‘Internet Research Association,’ not ‘Irish Republic Army.’ There are more than one things an acronym can stand for.

They’re a group dedicated to spreading misinformation with the purpose of causing strife and inciting divides. Tumblr’s made a big deal about them in the past and purged several confirmed blogs in the past, and made a statement on them a few days ago. Hence why people think it’s relevant now.

But again, staff has yet to answer anything.

Ok, time for a roundup.

Largely because I realized there’s been all these new products I’ve put out in the last few months, and no one spot that puts them all together. So, let’s fix that, before I have to go and put up the full Holiday Item Guide. So, what all have we put out lately? By look? 

Let’s start with “Unintentional Anime Protagonist” as modeled by @archaical:

Here, we’ve got a few items- For one, the New Moon Harness which makes for a great accent/utility piece. 

Also, the new Blank Handwraps:

Then, there’s the “Flawless Queer Demigod” look, as modeled here by Deen: 

This one features all sorts of awesome, like our Extra-Wide Belts. Also the new Old Number 7 Wristcuffs:

And this set includes some solid utility gear, like the new Wayfarer Backpack:

Not to mention Scarlet’s Gorget as a final accent piece: 

Then of course, we also had the final look for the fall, with a more witchy touch that brought some older pieces to new life (again, modeled by @archaical)

We have the Blank Handwraps again of course, but also our Archer Mask in black, and one of our Corvidae Collars. Perfect for stirring up a little magic. 

And then, of course, there’s the pieces so new there hasn’t been a chance to really set up shoots for them yet. I’m of course talking about the new Explorer’s Fieldbook

As well as the Eldritch Lash: 

Both of which are just itching to get put to use soon. So, there we go. Most of the latest stuff, all gathered up in one spot so you can go grab yourself a little something before all the holiday madness sets in. Because we all deserve to treat ourselves a touch before things really get nuts around here.

French gardians (”cowboys”) from Aigues-Mortes,  Camargue, a protected area between swamps, rice fields, salt marshes and sea in south of France, showing their skill with semi-wild bulls, protecting a tourist who didn’t realise he wasn’t in the safest place.

Omg this is incredible

So cool!

China Loves Venom.

I don’t just mean that it’s chinese box office figures are great. They are, but the audience is also emotionally thirsty for venom. He’s the new number one dream boyfriend. All the chinese articles I’ve read keep talking about his 男友力, his boyfriend power level(ie how good a SO is) and how its off the charts. How even people who aren’t into superheroes and are just along for the ride will be charmed at this romantic dreamboat. How adorable and lovable and cute and charming he is. How he’s become a 国民男友, a National Boyfriend, ie, someone the whole country wants to date because they’re such a Ideal BF. That Women Love Venom is accepted fact. The top three things articles in Chinese keep mentioning about the film are a)the box office success, b)how popular venom is With The Ladies in the audience and how he’s an Ideal Boyfriend, and how Venom and Eddie have Incredible Chemistry and c)blah blah cast plot trailer reactions blah. I’m so proud of the goo, y’all, he’s such a good boyfriend to Eddie that he’s made himself a Publically Recognised Dreamboat.

And this reaction wasn’t exactly unanticipated. Official promo images included art of Venom being a great BF in this vein:

Yes. That’s been on the official Weibo (chinese Twitter) account.

The little stamp says Venom: Caring Protector (the film is released in China as Venom: lethal protector so its a play on that). The term 暖男 is a particular archetype of caring and emotionally available man. A sweet softboy, if you will.

Highlights from articles include:

  • V keeps being called a 忠犬, a “loyal dog” love interest archetype who is loyal and self sacrificing and values his SO above all else. Kind of like the Service in Service Top.
  • he gets called 蠢萌 and 贱萌, which respectivekey are cute because he’s a dumbass and cute because he’s a dick
  • One article talks about how you expect a monster but you get a beautiful creature with beautiful perfect teeth. Ok???? Horny much????
  • Insisting he’s lovable because he’s Sensitive and Emotionally Intelligent, and know What Women Want, as shown by the scene where he coaches Eddie through his convo with Anne in the car
  • These aren’t from fanblogs by they way they’re from movie and entertainment sites and are Articles.
  • there’s this one user’s review on the biggest chinese movie review site that talks about how Venom is so sexy it makes them tremble. I’ve seen it quoted like four times.

Admittedly I’m biased but I just finished reading a Chinese think piece on Why Venom Is The Sexiest Villain so excuse me if I’m too enthusiastic. FYI reasons include:

  • he’s played by Tom hardy who is Sexy. (Hardy’s Chinese fan nickname is 汤老湿, which sounds like tom+sensei, but written as Tom+always wet…Chinese people are horny for Tom hardy.)
  • Because he’s got that contrast of sharp and lethal on the outside and soft and tender on the inside
  • And my favourite: because he is Socially Responsible and Does The Right Thing and is a Good Boy for Saving The Earth And Mrs Chen The Shopkeeper. This writer is so horny for V???? I’m screaming.

Chinese Venomfuckers I’m so proud of you all.
