AN ABSOLUTE CRIME! I Spent A Whole Hour Looking For It A While Back, And I Was Devastated. Let Me See

AN ABSOLUTE CRIME! I spent a whole hour looking for it a while back, and I was devastated. Let me see my four armed husband!!

Y'ALL THEY TOOK TSSM OFF DISNEY PLUS!!!

What am I going to watch when I don't feel like breathing!?!? WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS!!

The feminine urge to give an unhinged mad scientist a bunch of kisses is STRONG right now.

**Updated Intro**

Hi!! My name is Lia. I'm 20, and this blog is dedicated to all things aesthetic-y, headcanons, AUs, self-shipping, and all the multiple fandoms that live in my head rent-free. I'm also a fic writer on A03! I think the link is in my previously pinned intro for when I first started this little blog of mine. So feel free to take a look after a couple of scrolls.

I'm totally new to self-shipping and oc x canon in general. So give me some grace while I'm navigating this community here.

When I'm not here sporadically posting or gushing over a certain four-armed physicist, I'm roller skating, crocheting, or trying to finish my clinical lab science degree.

Also, feel free to reblog, like, and just interact with this post in general to spread the love. In the meantime, enjoy a spinning sandwich in these trying times 💜

Random TFA Headcanon of the Day

Due to her organic spider half, Blackarachnia has to eat bugs in addition to food-grade energon. But she's discovered her new ultimate favorite food. Gummy worms. They're sweet, sour and she'll try to recreate her favorite brands in her lab sometimes.

DO NOT expect her to share. She can and WILL bite.

Ah yes, Swindle or "The Money Man with the Money Plan" as I like to call him.

Absolutely well said!! POC readers and writers, including myself, have had to either imagine the reader or Y/N through a Eurocentric lens. As wonderful as some fics are and how talented the writer is, seeing ourselves represented in some way makes us acknowledged in a space that may otherwise leave us behind.

Write us with our fros and our braids. Write us speaking our first languages. Write us with cellulite and stretch marks.

Write. Us.

While we’re on the subject on inclusivity:

Inclusivity in your mood boards is just as important as inclusivity in the fic itself. Please try to include poc and curvy images in your mood boards as well! Please!

Your moodboard is the introduction to your story and sets the mood and the vibe. When you only have skinny white girls in your moodboards, you’re communicating a message that’s all who you thought of while writing and that’s the only type who is attractive and desirable to the characters. Poc deserve to feel seen too and feel like they were thought of while writing. Especially so when you’re writing for characters of color!

You don’t even have to use *only* poc or curvy pictures for your mood boards. Including different skin tones to show that you made the effort is much appreciated. You could also use shadow images or fully blacked out silhouettes to hide the skin tone altogether. There are plenty of resources and images out there that you should be able to find more than just skinny white girls. I know is it takes a little extra digging but it’s very much worth it to show inclusivity!

I know Pinterest is the bane of image finding, but it can be a good resource to find poc images. Just search (whatever aesthetic you’re looking for) + dark skin or person of color or something similar and you’ll find plenty of images. And the more you save the more images will show up in your feed. I constantly collect images to have references later when I need them.

Unsplash is another good resource to find poc models and images. And there’s also models of color pages right here on tumblr! There are resources out there it just takes a little effort to find the right images!

And as an ending note: using only skinny white girls in your mood board and then putting a disclaimer like “images do not represent reader they’re just fitting the aesthetic” isn’t the work around you think it is. I understand it’s not done in purpose and you most likely don’t realize it, but saying that says poc don’t fit your aesthetic and it’s still alienating and hurtful. Just something to keep in mind.
