Based On Their Infographic That I Saw Around The School, I Think They Believe It’s Either Too “boring”

Based on their infographic that I saw around the school, I think they believe it’s either too “boring” or too violent. I don’t know what books they suggested to replace it, but I do know that there was an emphasis on switching out classics with more modern YA novels. (Which isn’t to say I hate YA novels!)

There is a movement in my school that is focusing on banning Lord of the Flies, The Great Gatsby, and Where The Red Fern Grows (as well as a few others) and unfortunately it’s gaining some traction. The teachers all had to attend an assembly about it where the kids presented their ideas, and my English teacher (who knows me as the local Lord of the Flies girl) told me that she was so close to pulling me out of class to debate them on it.

Anyways, just super annoyed that those books may be removed from the curriculum.

Of Course! I’ll Be Using Them/them Pronouns For Chihiro If That’s Alright. I’ll Also Make It A

Of course! I’ll be using them/them pronouns for Chihiro if that’s alright. I’ll also make it a one shot, which I hope is what you want! I’m really sorry that this took so long and I hope that you enjoy it!

Tw: They/them for Chihiro

Waking up in this place, your very first instinct was to find your younger sibling, Chihiro Fujisaki. You left your classroom immediately. You know how fragile Chihiro is and you want to protect them. It’s one of the reasons you became so strong in the first place. You luckily encountered them before anyone else.

“Chihiro! Are you okay?” You asked. They looked up at you with a semi-worried smile. “Yeah, I’m okay, but where are we Y/N?” They ask back. You look around. “I’m not sure Chihiro, you should stay close to me.” You insisted. Chihiro mumbled something about being weak under their breath, but you couldn’t disagree in time.

“Hey, we should probably head back to the main hall, right Y/N?” Chihiro asked you, looking down the hallway.

“You’re probably right, I don’t think we should be late on our first day.”

(I’ll skip everyone else’s introductions, so let’s assume that you went last.)

“And I’m Y/N Fujisaki.” You said with a smile. “Oh, so you and Chihiro and sisters? That’s so cool!” Aoi Asahina said. You were about to correct when Chihiro nodded and shot you a quick glance. “Ah..yeah, that’s right.” You said.

During the ‘killing game’ you made sure to protect Chihiro. You know that Chihiro doesn’t really enjoy having you around every second, but you keep insisting that you want to keep them safe.

You kept a close eye on Chihiro all the time. Their friends were your friends. You felt like it was your duty to keep Chihiro alive.

You and Chihiro had a mostly normal relationship. A relationship that prevented their demise, as when Chihiro felt like they needed to get stronger, they turned to you instead of Mondo.

You were a little hesitant at first.

“Chihiro, no one is making you get stronger..”

“Please Y/N! I know that, but I want to be stronger.. it’s the only way I can tell them I’m not actually a girl.”

So you supported them. You were also able to get Sakura and Hina to help as well and Chihiro seemed all around happier.

This Is Me Coming Out As An Avid Lover Of Pokemon AU's

this is me coming out as an avid lover of pokemon AU's

Big thanks to @simplyender for coming up with the team with me :]]

[image description] A Digital illustration of The Spot from Across the spider verse surrounded by a team of 6 pokemon - including Mimikyu, Xurkitree, Porygon 2, Yamask, Stunfisk and Hoopa. Spot is standing on the right of the canvas looking out to the left with an arm raised. In his other hand, he is loosely holding a pokeball, and 4 others can be seen falling through portals around him. All his pokemon are moving to the left, as if attacking. The background is a very light blue with darker geometric circles patterning it. [End ID]

Tumblr,

Earlier today we announced to the press that we are running a beta test program for Post+, Tumblr’s newest add-on subscription tool. Post+ is a completely optional tool that will allow creators to make some of their posts exclusive to their paid subscribers. You can read more about it right over here on our @postplus Tumblr. This feature is being tested by a small group of incredible creators on Tumblr.

We want to hear about what you like, what you love, and what concerns you. Even if it’s not very nice. Tell us. We can take it. We WANT that feedback. It helps us make Tumblr better.

What we won’t ever accept is the targeted harassment and threats these creators have endured since this afternoon. These creators are some of the most talented people around, and all they’re doing is testing out a feature. These are the people who graciously agreed to pilot a program to help us discover bugs before we open it up to all creators. These are the humans who are testing a feature that we hope will soon help thousands of Tumblr creators feel empowered, get rewarded for their efforts, and find support within their community.

Our Community Guidelines are clear: Don’t engage in targeted abuse, bullying, or harassment.

Anyone in violation of these guidelines will be dealt with swiftly and will be forced to contend with the appropriate consequences. It’s okay to tell us how you feel. It’s not okay to bully someone because you disagree with their choices.

Hey guys I just realized that Eda and Lilith are (probably) related to Belos. I don’t know why it took me so long to realize that but that would make for some..interesting family dinners. Honestly though that entire family tree would be interesting if they all had some sort of unavoidable family dinner.

Hello everyone, It’s been a awhile, hasn’t it? This won’t be a story, so sorry if you thought it was. This is more of a personal update, so if you don’t want to read this that’s alright. I promise I’ll be writing some more requests soon though!

Okay, so I’ve been very busy in real life trying to balance out summer projects and getting summer jobs. I won’t be as active on here as before in terms of writing, but I will still write for here. Currently, the requests are closed though. So yeah, I just wanted to update why I haven’t been posting stories as often as I used to. Have a nice day!

Why be normal about characters when you can be weird about them? Like yess pop off, tell me about that playlist you made for them. Show me the extremely specific headcanons you’ve created. Please do tell me about that one detail of a character that makes you have the human equivalent of a keyboard smash.
