How very depressing that Neil Gaiman had trended not even a tiny bit for demonstrating what a fucking horrific person he is.
As a reminder, he's suing Caroline Wallner, one of his accusers, for breaking her NDA. Not for libel. He's saying she shouldn't have told anyone about it, not that she lied.
He doesn't need the money. He's risking the Streisand effect. He is punishing Caroline, he's trying to intimidate other victims who have signed NDAs to scare them into continued silence.
He is no friend to women, to the LGBTQIA+ community, to anyone quite frankly unless he thinks they are of value to him.
Share the story. Put it on Facebook and bluesky and whatever else you're on. Make it clear what a horrifying person he is. Tell your friends. He's paying Edendale a fortune to try and cover this up. Make this hard for him. Make it cost him money.
I still think Moana deserved an Oscar for this part
To my tiny beanie baby self, who smiles at cats and loses a tooth by biting cotton candy. You don’t understand why things have happened the way they do, and neither do I, but maybe the words of this trusted adult will help ❣️
Mr. Gaiman, I know you mostly get asks about Good Omens these days, but I am a long-time fan. Of your work Coraline. I am a survivor of severe parental neglect and abuse, and I must have read the book hundreds of times in my childhood and I found great comfort in the movie, despite my now complicated feelings about Time Burton as a person. I guess I just wanted to thank you for creating a piece of art that made me feel less alone in my very isolated adolescence.
Do you have any advice for healing after such a traumatic start to life?
I'm glad Coraline has helped. (Tim Burton didn't have anything at all to do with the Coraline movie though.)
When I was young I believed that the way you healed was just to move on. Now I'm 63 and you realize that stuff never heals on its own. It's still there, waiting to jump out at you. But there are things that help: other people help, especially other people it's safe to talk to. Building a life can help. And making art out of trauma. That's good too.
I wished Coraline had been around when I was a child, and that was why I wrote it as an adult.
Excited about this!!
TL;DR: We're looking for English-speaking neopronoun users (aged 18+) to participate in a paid linguistics study.
Hello!
Professor Kirby Conrod from Swarthmore College is recruiting participants for a paid interview study (in-person in Philly or on zoom). Anyone who uses neopronouns for themself, is 18 or older, and is fluent in English is welcome to participate. The study will consist of a casual interview between you and a researcher, a similar interview with a friend of yours, and an exit survey for each of you. Each will receive $15 as compensation for their time.
If you're interested in participating, please fill out this form: (https://forms.gle/YajpkjxGYiwL7RLF6). Filling out this form does not require you to participate; it's just an expression of interest.
Even on Tumblr, neopronoun use is relatively uncommon, so it would be very helpful if folks could reblog this post to help it reach as many neopronoun users as possible.
This is the first “Wait and See” I found in the wild, and I’m reblogging it since I can’t actually tack it to my wall over my desk like I desperately want to
Hello hello hello! I just wanted to ask, will Anathema Newton and maybe war famine pollution and death, come back to good omens 3? Will the them come back? Good day!
Wait and see.
I am extremely normal about everything happening in this photo, and EVEN MORE NORMAL about Michael Sheen’s expression
Love is ...
Holding your copy of the Good Omens book upside down, so that your beloved one is on top.

My dear Neil Gaiman, now that the writers' strike has finally come to an end, do we have any confirmation on the third season of Good Omens? Please, Neil... even if there is no continuation of the series, we need the end of the story. We count on you! And FOR GOD'S SAKE, I need a happy ending for Aziraphale and Crowley! Preferably, with Azi doing the "I'm sorry dance" for Crowley and finally returning that kiss from the second season :) <3
When Season 3 is officially commissioned everyone will know.
It hasn't been yet.
Currently the sets are still standing in Bathgate, and I'm beginning to write more episodes.
Not a fix it, but a promise. Promises scare me, but I’m learning to trust them, all the same.
I'll Wait - rated T, ~4500 words
We're all shattered. Herewith my offering.
Summary: They spent centuries talking past each other and kept it up right to the last minute. They won't find their way back to one another in one glib resolution.
But we know it's not over. With Heaven and Earth dividing them, there's time to consider all the unsaid things.
And there's still an angel in the bookshop.
The day was dark and the streetlamps were already blinking fitfully on and then off again, the rain blowing in a cutting breeze that slipped in the door as the woman left; but there he was, the vivid hair dulled by dampness, a long lock plastered to his forehead.
They crossed Whickber Street in three strides, carrying the tartan umbrella that had leant against the hat-stand for months.
“I saw you standing here. It is raining and very cold. I wish you to know that you are always welcome in the shop whether or not Mr. Fell is present. May I offer you a cup of tea?”
He looked past her toward the shopfront. “No,” he said.
“Then please, take this umbrella – you are becoming very wet –”
“Sod off,” he said.

Tagging in the replies. As always, lmk if you want to be added to or removed from my tag list!
Me all last weekend (and anytime I remember the ending)
tumblr tuesday: the ineffable husbands return!
...and with them, your ineffably beautiful fanart of Aziraphale and Crowley. It's also worth pointing out that most of this art was posted in the last day or so. The show has been out for a mere weekend. Please never change, Tumblr <3
(This post goes out to everyone who has seen the second season. SPOILERS AHEAD. MILD BUT STILL SPOILERY. PLEASE BE WARNED.)

…these fries didn’t go quietly… #fooditemsonthesubway https://www.instagram.com/p/CXMlIj1FLYn/?utm_medium=tumblr
Y’all, I can still smell the fries- this may be the most tragic #fooditemsonthesubway post I’ve ever made #abandoned #mcdonalds #thesepoorfries https://www.instagram.com/p/CW6U4uiP0Rm/?utm_medium=tumblr
Good morning all! I’ve been up since 6:15am, and I’ve got a thing I’ve been meaning to share since National Coming Out Day, so I’m gonna do it now while I’m not awake enough to care about this being “perfect.” So we all know I’m bisexual, right, and how I thought I was straight until I was 21 doing a production of Three Musketeers? Well, over the past year, I’ve come to realize that I’m also not as cis as I thought I was all my life! I’m genderfae! And my pronouns are fae/faer! What does that mean for me? It means that I fluctuate between many genders, but all of those genders are at least vaguely feminine. (Fun fact: woman is one of them! But it’s not the only one, it’s very tied to my race, and I feel so much more myself when I call myself genderfae) It also means that I do not want to be referred to as a girl or a lady, though other gendered terms such as daughter, sister, aunt are fine. Woman is sometimes ok, but I really only like it when my Blackness is also being talked about, and when other Black femmes are doing the talking. I’ve attached a picture of the genderfae flag and a pronoun worksheet for anyone that wants to practice, because I know I had to practice my own dang pronouns, so I want to help other people do the same thing! To recap! Gender identity: genderfae Pronouns: fae/faer Good descriptors: person, daughter, sister, aunt, niece, girlfriend, fae Personally painful descriptors: girl, woman, lady Love you all 💚💛🤍💕💜 #genderfae #nationalcomingoutday #latepost #rightontimepost https://www.instagram.com/p/CVqNTFyFoPx/?utm_medium=tumblr

It’s been quite literally a decade since I’ve had this simple Brazilian treat, and I have changed a LOT since I was that awkward, definitely-had-anxiety-and-other-fun-mental-things-that-were-untreated 18 year old that couldn’t stop stealing spoonfuls from the pot. My trip to Brazil had things happen that I’m still healing from, things that have made it too hard to go back to a place I adored. But I made beigadeiro last night, and it made me happy, and that’s a step in the right direction #brigadeiro #mentalhealth #healingjourney #metoo #songbirdbakingadventures https://www.instagram.com/p/CHIozHlDXsX/?igshid=d59imcrpmvjk

It is a dark time for the Rebellion. Although the Virus has been reveled for the Death Star it truly is, Federal forces have blown off its scientists’ warnings and are attempting to drive its workers out into the galaxy unprotected. In an attempt to evade the Virus, the non essential workers secrete themselves in their homes, only emerging for sustenance and light from the solo sun. They can only hope they will not be forced out of hiding too soon, into the clutches of the dreaded Virus... #maythe4thbewithyou https://www.instagram.com/p/B_wYifKDeOK/?igshid=zqbzj8m1xt43
The Rainbow Railroad is helping gay men escape Chechen concentration camps. They need our help.
WHO THEY ARE:
“Rainbow Railroad receives hundreds of requests for help every year from countries where LGBT individuals are open targets of violence. Because the volume of requests is so high, we focus our efforts on assisting LGBT people who have faced physical violence or face an imminent threat of violence, imprisonment, or death. We have been successful in helping individuals from the Caribbean, Africa and Middle East where we have local networks to support and validate cases.”
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO HELP?
“The costs range as every case is unique. Sometimes the individual has the resources to help themselves and they just need information and support from us to make a move. In these cases, the cost to Rainbow Railroad is staff and volunteer time to research and provide information. In cases where they need financial support to get to safety, it costs about $5000 to cover flights and other related costs.”

New addition to the #fooditemsonthesubway series! As always, caption away, my friends!
Silly birds
This song never made any sense to me.
When they said it’s important to hydrate your hair, I don’t think this is what they meant. Maybe I should have brought an umbrella... #robinlearnsaboutwinter (at George Washington Bridge)
