*the purpose of this list is to provide several places to get you excited about some of the green lanterns you will get to know, so you feel it's worth it to invest your time into reading longer arcs/books. this is not meant to be an exhaustive list as "every single good green lantern story in existence"
mosaic world (green lantern (1990) #14-17 + green lantern mosaic (1992) #1-18; a guardian of the universe, driven mad by loneliness, kidnaps john stewart and begins terraforming oa by kidnapping entire cities from planets all across the galaxy)
emerald twilight (green lantern (1990) #48-50; origin of parallax. you can get away with not knowing the death of superman because of doomsday in the 1990s, but it provides a lot of context regarding why coast city specifically)
green lantern: circle of fire (2000) [reading order found here; the world is attacked by a mysterious figure known as oblivion, can kyle, along with other green lanterns from divergent timelines, defeat him]
green lantern corps: recharge (2005) #1-5 [i know i know it's written by geoff johns and this is following hal's "redemption arc" but there are legitimately good kyle & guy & kilowog moments in this limited series; as well as the first appearance of soranik, a doctor from korugar, struggling between her duty to her patients as a doctor and her duty to protect the greater community if she accepts the power ring]
the omega men (2015) #1-12 [this is a controversial pick, but i do stand by it because it offers a surprisingly thoughtful critique of the military industrial complex and how even after kyle telling his experiences on vega to the general, he still lauds him as a hero, oblivious to what kyle is trying to say. in my mind this is one of the better written stories of kyle as the white lantern]
far sector (2021) [a 12 issue mini-series featuring sojourner mullien, as much a detective as she is a gl, solving a murder that threatens the harmony of the planet she's stationed on]
i feel like we as a digital society have forgotten the important rules of the internet
Don't feed the trolls
Never give out personal information
Anonymity is the best defense
Don't click suspicious links
Don't click popups and ads
Just because it's written doesn't mean it's true
You are responsible for your own experience
There is porn of everything, act accordingly
i dont think i posted these but here i made a little frog pattern to make tiny frog toys with my grandma
this is the first lil guy I made while still learning how i should sew it
It's come to my attention that a good portion of the younger generation has not been made aware of one of the greatest and most hated PILLARS of millennial society.
So I apologize, but I must take on this task. A new hand must touch the beacon. The knowledge must be passed on. The chain can not be broken.
So.
The following are the rules of The Game:
there is no winning The Game
once you know of The Game, you are always playing the game
the point of The Game is to not think about The Game
if you think about The Game, you have lost The Game, and must announce this to those around you - causing them to also lose The Game
A "reset period" of roughly an hour or two before loss announcements is common in colloquial rules to allow yourself and those around you to properly temporarily "forget" about The Game, however that is not an official rule.
Go forth, you next generation, and I am sorry.
you punch nazis!

I started using Head and Shoulders ten years ago for itchy scalp and dandruff, and then for ten years I have not had itchy scalp and dandruff, so I thought “why do I still buy shampoo to combat itchy scalp and dandruff when I do not have itchy scalp and dandruff,” so I stopped buying the shampoo for itchy scalp and dandruff and can you guess I have now? Can you predict what currently afflicts me? It’s alright if you can’t because apparently I fuckin couldn’t either
dont censor sex, abuse, suicide, dont censor it. we dont have censors like tiktok does, you wont be banned for talking about these things and tagging them properly helps people avoid them (also, we dont have shadowbanning here)
you follow who you follow, and you see posts from who you follow or what you search. the 'for you page' is basically useless here. this also brings me to my next two points
we get it, on tiktok you have to crosstag for reach, but thats not really a thing here. just tag your posts properly (also posters often leave more info about the post in the tags!! and when you reblog stuff you can leave your own notes in the tags, kind of like the old "repost comments" on tiktok)
"viral" isnt really a thing on here (at least not for the average blogger). your posts will probably get 2-10 likes and you wont get nearly as many followers than on tiktok. thats just how tumblr is
tiktok is VERY discussion based, and while tumblr is much more discussion based than other social medias, its still not a good place for ragebait/discourse. dont interact, itll make your experience worse in the end, just block and move on
this is tumblr, not tiktok. dont diss old tumblr users for how they use the site or try to change them, thats like going into someone elses house and trying to rearrange their furniture. we've been here longer and we're familiar with the site and its culture, either find your niche, adapt, or find a different app
If you see this on your dashboard, reblog this, NO MATTER WHAT and all your dreams and wishes will come true.
