like there comes a point where you think something is fundamentally wrong with you. and then it turns out it’s just Friday and you haven’t washed your hair in three days and maybe you’re also just a little lonely and the combination of all three of those things is whittling a hole into your chest every time you breathe. but also the sun’s up. and you’ve survived everything so far, so you’ll survive this too, even if it hurts, even if you have to survive it many times.

5 Underrated Audio Drama: Weird Fiction Edition
Weird fiction* is a bit of a niche genre, but is my absolute favourite, and is easiest to describe as that hard-to-define space between sci-fi, fantasy, and horror. *The more accurate term here is probably "New Weird" or something else. I'm not great at genre names, and depending on who you ask, you may be told that "weird fiction" is more cosmic-horror-leaning, or is the earlier movement, or the name of the overall genre category, or that the two terms are interchangable. I tend toward the last two but I think the first two are more accurate.
Notable weird fiction shows include Infinity Train and the OA, and popular weird fiction podcasts include Archive 81 and The Far Meridian (if you haven't heard these already, you absolutely should). While it's a smaller genre, it has a lot to offer, and there are some incredible smaller productions that are plenty deserving of attention! Here are 5 absolutely quality weird fiction podcasts. And I mean quality: I've heard each one at least twice.
Up to date as of 21st July 2021
Midnight Burger
"When Gloria took a waitressing job at a diner outside of Phoenix, she didn't realize she was now an employee of Midnight Burger, a time-traveling, dimension-spanning diner. Every day Midnight Burger appears somewhere new in the cosmos along with it's staff: a galactic drifter, a rogue theoretical physicist, a sentient old-timey radio, and some guy named Caspar. No one knows who built Midnight Burger or how it works, but when it appears there's always someone around who could really use a cup of coffee.
"When the waves of the universe crash unrelentingly, when the stars seem indifferent to your plight, suddenly there is a diner."
We open at 6."
The above summary is a great one, so I won't give my own. An incredibly funny and charming piece of weird fiction and sci-fi with an absolutely delightful cast of characters, fun and unique story ideas, and really clean voice and soundwork. The radio is a 1920s Christian channel specifically, so if like me you aren't used to Christianity it might be a bit weird, but it's not excessive. There are currently 9 episodes of between 25 and 55 minutes each, averaging 40 minutes per episode.
Midnight Burger is available on major podcasting platforms and Spotify. There are no currently available content warnings, but transcripts are available on the website. You can also follow their Tumblr at @midnightburgr
Out of Place
"Andrew Moss loved his anthropology job, until mysterious artifacts from a Mr. Havisham started arriving in brown paper bags. The artifacts are... Wrong"
A young archivist takes a job cataloguing strange items, and speculates on how the past, present, and future of the alternate timeline the item is from might vary from our own, based on the differences in the items. Out of Place is a delightful piece of both Weird and Speculative Fiction, and I was really surprised to find it's not more popular. It's very well written, the sound design is simple and clean, and the research and ideas are super fascinating. There's also a super cute subplot involving his boyfriend's niece that I adore. There are currently 18 episodes available with more airing. The twelve season 1 episodes range from 10 to 15 minutes, and the five season 2 episode average at 25 minutes each.
Out of Place is available on major podcasting platforms, and Spotify. It unfortunately does not have content warnings or transcripts at this time.
The Godfrey Audio Guide
"The world-famous audio guide for the Annabelle H. Godfrey Historic Estate and Museum. Please do not touch the art. This is for your own safety. Though this is a self-guided tour and you may listen in whatever order you choose, the Estate recommends that you start at the beginning."
The Godfrey Audio Guide is an audio tour guide of a weird and wonderful (and occasionally supernatural) art gallery and associated gardens. Each episode has two or three pieces, elegantly described and with a little context or history behind both the art and it's place in the estate. Simple but effective audio with delightful, professional, but friendly narration, it's a very relaxing and easy listen without ever slipping into boredom, and enticing mystery behind it. Casually and comfortingly very queer. There are currently 26 episodes available, between 10 and 15 minutes each.
The Godfrey Audio Guide is available on major podcasting platforms and Spotify. There are no currently available content warnings, but transcripts of each episode are freely available on the Patreon.
The Mistholme Museum of Mystery, Morbidity, and Mortality
"Hello, and welcome to the Mistholme Museum of Mystery, Morbidity, and Mortality. This Audio Tour Guide is aware that this is your first visit to the museum! On behalf of the Museum: Welcome! It’s a pleasure to have you with us here today. The Audio Tour Guide will be your window into the history of the museum and its exhibits today. Please note, that if you notice your version of the Audio Tour Guide behaving oddly, kindly ensure that you dispose of your Audio Device in the nearest incinerator at the earliest convenience."
Another audio tour guide, Godfrey and Mistholme might share a basic idea and format, but both are distinct and neither intrude on the other's flavour. The Mistholme Museum has you toured around a museum of strange artifacts by an incredibly sweet AI, who will tell you both about the item, and the story behind it. Amazing writing and narration that dips into both heartwarming and horror flawlessly, it features between 1 and 3 items an episode. Very creative and makes use of both original ideas and historic strangeness very well. Big on water, mirrors, changelings and doubles, and a healthy dose of subtle queerness. The third season is currently airing, and there are currently 27 episodes available, between 20 and 40 minutes each (but usually 25-30 mins).
The Mistholme Museum is available on major podcasting platforms and Spotify. It has external advertising at the start and end of episodes to support the production. Content warnings are given at the start of the transcripts, and transcripts are linked in each episode description. You can also follow their Tumblr at @the-mistholme-museum!
The Tower
"A young woman leaves behind her isolated, suffocating existence to climb The Tower, an abandoned relic of a forgotten age, built by a proud king who wanted to rule the sky as well as the land. It stretches up into the sky, through the smog."
The above description will be enough, so I shant write my own. A very pretty and meditative piece with stunning soundwork and a truely amazing original soundtrack. A great exploration of a simple idea with lovely written interpersonal relations and a great framing device. There are currently 7 episodes episodes of 5-13 mins in length, and season 2 is coming up soon!
The Tower is on major podcasting platforms and Spotify, and you can also find the soundtrack on spotify. There are no currently available content warnings, but transcripts linked in each episode description. You can follow their tumblr and find out more about their other amazing podcasts at @tincanaudio!
Feel free to leave a comment on what genre you want me to do next!

If I’ve missed your artwork/fic, please tell me and I’d be happy to add them to the list.
In light of recent events, I would like to say that attic au content seems to be continuing at full steam! There are a couple of other things I want to see covered before I’ve set all my pieces about this AU.
Once again, Tumblr manages to succeed via just being honest with their users.
I made a post back around April fool's about the crabs being so popular because the joke was that every other website tries to trick you into clicking things so they can make money from your clicks and what if instead a website just asked "please click this revenue generating crab. It is there to generate revenue. In return you will have clicked on a crab. Nothing more." And the answer to that question was "people will frantically click on that crab. They don't hate the idea of the website getting money, they hate the idea of being profited on against their will".
So Tumblr implemented actual revenue crabs. "For this much money you can fill your or someone else's dash with virtual crabs. This will have the effect of there being crabs on their screen."
And people will buy those crabs. Because yes you're spending money on something stupid and useless but it's being sold to you as "hey you want something stupid and useless?", which is a nice change of pace from every other site trying to make itself out to be something more than what it is.
Twitter is floundering with the checkmark system because it's being sold as "confirm that you are someone important and who you say you are is true", which it isn't at all right now because anyone can buy one. You're buying a useless checkmark that only says that YOU think you're important. Or, more often than not right now, you are intending to trick other people into thinking you're someone you're not.
Meanwhile, Tumblr just said "Consider this double check mark. It does nothing. You will be marking yourself as someone who paid money for a meaningless checkmark and sometimes it will randomly turn into a bunch of crabs, making the site harder to use". And the userbase is like "Well sure, that sounds delightful."
The point is, despite what all the marketing and advertising people have tried to say, painting trash gold and trying to pass it off as something better is almost never as effective as just saying "hey you want this trash?"
Why yes, in fact, I do.
Spent a long time on this art resource/reference masterpost! Finally starting to edit to add more. This will be REGULARLY updated so it’s gonna get huge. If you have a request for resources for me to find OR have a resource you want me to add, just send me an ask :D

hey (with the intention of making you listen to my favorite audio drama)
Jon in season 4 gives up all pretenses of trying to work on archiving and starts to make shitty memes of his past experiences as one
[ID: A collection of in-universe TMA memes.
1. An anime man labeled “Me (Jonathan Sims)” gestures to a butterfly labeled “Recording statements” while smiling naively. He asks: “Is this archiving? (Genuinely asking).”
2. Kermit, labeled “past me (Jonathan Sims)” looks at a hooded evil Kermit labeled “current me (Jonathan Sims) who says, "Don’t accept the promotion, for the love of god.”
3. A meme of rapper Xzibit smiling at the viewer with the top and bottom text: “Hello dog, I heard you like horror, / so we put horror statements in your already horror filled job so you can be scared while you are already scared.”
4. A doge meme. Doge smiles and is labeled with the rainbow words “Tea,” “So nice,” “Very fluffy,” “Martin blackwood,” and “Great assistant.”
5. Two pieces of paper labeled “Sasha” and “Not Sasha” are presented with the caption “Corporate needs you to find the difference between this picture and this picture.” The next panel shows Pam Beesly, labeled as “I’m sad (Jonathan Sims)” smiling and saying: “They’re the same picture.”
6. The old fist bump baby meme with a radial background. Top and bottom text reads: “I saw / Martin Blackwood today (It was from far away but it was still something).”

8. A rage comic of a wrinkled face smiling with strain against a dark background. Top and bottom text reads: “This one is called forever alone. I feel as though this is very apt to my (and Martin’s) situation.”
9. A kid fist-pumping in front of a computer with the Impact text “When a statement records digitally.”
