Go Fandom - Tumblr Posts
I love how tv Aziraphale is like 'I couldn't possibly kill anyone or anything' and book Aziraphale is like 'The antichrist is in Tadfield. I need you to go there and kill him for me.'
Let's be real, Crowley is sensible, he doesn't have much malice in reality, worse he can do is transform you into a worm.
Aziraphale will do away with you and no one would be any wiser about it. I'm just gone to the world.

Hello ineffable fandom!! π
I can't believe that you've managed to get the crowdfunder up to almost Β£9000 already! My family and I are absolutely blown away by your kindness and generosity, especially at a time that's not been easy for any of us. It just goes to show that this is the heart of what this fandom is, love, and nobody can take that away from us.
ANYWAY
This is my 11 year old nonbinary kiddo, Finley:
They have pledged that for every Β£1000 mark crossed from now on, they will draw a Good Omens picture for you all to enjoy (they say they aren't the best artist as they have dyspraxia - mummy totally disagrees - but they'll try their best!).
So please keep donating, and whether or not you have or have simply reblogged, choose what you'd like Finley to draw for when we cross that Β£9000 mark - cast your votes below!
We hope that in some small way we can make you smile and thank you for the unspeakably, unbearably kind generosity you have shown to our little family in our time of need.
WAHOO FOR FINLEY!!
Good morning ineffable fandom π
Yesterday I was lucky enough to go and see Hozier in Finsbury Park. My friend had bought me the tickets for Christmas, and refused to let me sell them and insisted I go and try to have to a good time. Anyway. When I was listening to I, Carrion, I sort of lost it a bit. Because between that song and GO S2, Don't Fall Away From Me was born. And it made me think about how lucky I am to have all of you, how a year ago I couldn't have imagined belonging anywhere, much less somewhere so full of kindness and compassion and love.
My crowdfunder to help buy a caravan to keep my kids and I off the streets surpassed the Β£9000 mark yesterday! At the time of posting on 8th July, the current total is Β£9,721.
I am so blown away by the generosity and kindness of all of you. Not just donations, but people who help in other ways; by reblogging, by sharing on Twitter where I don't have much reach, and those who have decided to read my fanfics and leave comments... it's brought so much comfort to me at a time when everything feels so hopeless.
As promised, because we went past the Β£9000 mark, Finley has drawn you this lovely picture of our ineffable duo!!
Do you think we can push up to Β£10,000 over the next few days? If you can, what would you like Finley to draw for you next?
To my beloved fandom;
A lot of you know me as PhoenixRose314, Tumblr's fandom mom and ineffable author of Don't Fall Away From Me and There Is A Light & It Never Goes Out. This fandom has been such a source of joy for me and has kept me going through some really difficult and dark times, but right now my world is absolutely falling apart.
Through circumstances beyond my control (health reasons - cancer and anxiety and depression), I was let go from my job a few months ago and my children and I can no longer afford to rent our lovely home in our lovely village. This has been incredibly hard for me to accept but once my lease is up I will have run out of savings and my kids and I will no longer have a place to call our own.
I am famously awful at asking for help, however this amazing fandom has convinced me to start this crowdfunder to try and raise enough money to try and buy a small park home or caravan for myself and the kids. It won't be much, but it will be ours, and nobody can take it away from us. I'm currently in the process of selling all my collectibles, furniture and worldly goods to try and raise some of the money myself, but anything you could donate to give my family some stability would be appreciated from the very bottom of my heart.
You can read more about my story and donate here:
I hate that it has come to this, I feel so much shame and guilt for being in this position, but I better than anyone know that circumstances can change on a dime, and I hope that all the good and kindness (and fanfiction!!) I've put out into the world might come back to me now.
Please share if you can, donate if you can, and thank you for reading.

Phoenix & Pan's Good Omens Meetup
Saturday 5th October 2024
Greetings, beloved ineffable fandom!
On Saturday 5th October, @pannotbread and I will be in London (having seen Michael in White Rabbit, Red Rabbit the night before) and would love to host a Good Omens meet up!
Provisional plan thus far is to meet up in St James Park around midday, bring a light picnic if weather is good, take photos and be generally insane near The Bench, then head over to Sky Garden (the setting for Heaven and full of plants to yell at) for more photos ops and drinks at the bar overlooking London. In the evening, we were thinking of heading into Soho for sushi dinner and then we were going to hire a karaoke room for singing and cocktails!
Obviously because of the nature of the day we'd need to book (and pay for) stuff in advance, so right now I'm just trying to get an idea of levels of interest - so let me know if you'd be interested in coming, to some or all of it!
Please give us a wave in the comments if you are able to come so we know who to make arrangements with!
Pan and I promise to be on our best behaviour and keep the heart-eyes to a minimum (at least until the cocktails, then I cannot be held responsible for what my face does around them, lol). We are both so excited and hope that some of you lovely folks can make it!
β€οΈπ§‘πππ©΅πππ©·β€οΈπ§‘πππ©΅πππ©·
[pleeeease reblog so we can reach as many ineffables as possible!]
Yay congratulations!!
Well today I got approved to begin a fully funded course, studying Counselling Skills, and a friend of mine has already said that once I've qualified she'd happily interview me for a remote-working position at her charity that works with struggling LGBTQ+ teens and young adults who've been estranged from their families.
And I never would've done any of this without all of you.
Life sometimes unfolds in strange and unexpected directions, and not long ago I thought my life was as good as over. I was too physically unwell to continue being an early years teacher (it's a much more physical job than people realise), my career of 15 years was at a sudden and bitter end, and my life seemed to have no meaning, just an endless stretch of medical rubbish interspersed with pain, and waiting.
Then I started handing out mama hugs on Tumblr during Pride Month. Then, the occasional ask from an anxious teen turned into several a week... then Neil left the fandom and I started getting half a dozen asks a day. And it's been as wonderful as it has been terrifying, hoping I'm helping but worrying I'm not doing enough, knowing I'm not remotely qualified to help but just here to hand out empathy and support when needed.
Now it looks like I'll be turning this random chain of events into a career, and once again I have this wonderful fandom to thank.
It feels exciting to be starting over at the grand old age of 39, chasing a new dream, one I feel passionate about, one I feel I could really be good at with the right support and structure. Because it's never too late to choose a different path, to find a new dream, to feel a new spark ignite.
Thank you to every person who fell into my inbox, you have shone the light for me in my times of darkness, and now I can see the way forward.
I love you all so much π₯Ήππ«π₯²

π€ Stop! π€
This is your designated rest stop. No, don't scroll past, unclench that jaw and drop those shoulders - wonderful - take in a deep breath and then slowly let it out.
Good.
Now.
*unrolls a picnic blanket*
*adds some squashy cushions*
*and fairy lights -- for atmosphere*
*hands out hot chocolates with tiny marshmallows on top*
*passes round Eccles cakes*
Sit down and rest a while, friend.
Relax.
Calm.
Let's tell each other stories and just stop a moment, until we're ready to face the world once more, okay?
i love our fandom so much you're all so creative and kind and i just want to give a big hug to everyoneπ₯Ή we made this show our own
I just finished Good Omens and Iβm so normal about it, I would never make a self insert oc just so I could hug aziraphale and Crowley (next drawing of that coming soon)
Also Iβve been looking at too much fan art and fan videos to be a normal person πππ
Was playing this game with my family and my dad said I could draw on one of the cards if I wanted to and the brainrot consumed me.
I LOVE THEM SO MUCHHHH
Our cry babies
Mmm! This banana bread is delicious! Thank you very much, my mental health has not been good recently and this is so peaceful. If anyone needs any water I have spares in my backpack :)
π€ Stop! π€

Hello beloved ineffable fandom π
It has been just over 24 hours since I swallowed my pride and posted my Crowdfunder to try and keep my kids and I off the streets.
In that time, I have cried a spectacular amount, because never in a million years could I have imagined the outpouring of love from people I have never even met, or the sheer generosity of a fandom who are going through a really terrible time this week. And it's not just the donations that have reduced me to tears, but the amount of reblogs of my original post, some of the tags and comments and things you said about me and my writing... yep I've been an absolute emotional wreck. I will never ever be able to thank you or repay you for your kindness.
Thanks to YOU (yes not just the people that donated, but the wonderful amazing people who reblogged and spread the word), 40% of the total has already been raised in just one day!
Ways you can still help: please reblog, donate if/when you can, and especially users on Twitter, its a platform I rarely use so maybe someone could reach out to the Good Omens fandom there on my behalf?
Thank you again. I'm absolutely stunned, I don't have the words to tell you how much this means to me.
Love always,
Phoenix πΉ
