That moment when your science, politics, and Good Omens fandoms collide 😂👍🏻

Ok mental health break, shall we? We offer you a floof as unimpressed as us. This is a fennec fox, Vulpes zerda, the smallest fox species. We chose this photo not only for the vibe, but to show their feet -- extra furry to avoid the scorch of desert sand in the Sahara, where they live. Enjoy!

Thanks! I hope you’re right 🙏🏻❤️

Good night from the barricades 🫡😴

Best of luck with a difficult situation.

Yeah, don’t worry but anything but what you’ve got to do to get through the day.

We’ll be glad to see you whenever you get back, no matter how infrequently ❤️

Big hugs 🫂❤️

True, luck has a lot to do with it. But you were smart to leave when you did. Sometimes I wish I had.

Though I’m in a different situation and sometimes I think I should use my privilege to stay and fight for the country I thought we were and still think we can be again 🙏🏻

Yeah, Florida is definitely one of the places that has really changed over the last 15 years or so unfortunately 😔

I’m glad your experience there was OK back in the day 👍🏻

Oh that sounds lovely!

Like Virginia Woolf said in “A Room of One’s Own” 💪🏻 Women need a private space (and a sufficient income) to reach their creative potential

So I’m so glad to hear you can fit a smut den in your new place to pursue your creative hobbies ✍️ 🎨👍🏻

I hope you find time to use it! 🤞🏻

Apidistra 🌿 @apidistra.bsky.social · 8h

So many excellent kink fics in that tag 👆🏻🫦

One aspect of Good Omens that I especially love is that both Ineffable Wives and Ineffable Husbands can exist in the canon universe 👏🏻

It opens up such possibilities for fic 🤩

Both are represented in Ineffable Kinktober fic this year ❤️‍🔥👏🏻

Thanks for the link!
I’m sure it is fantastic 👏🏻😏❤️‍🔥

True, can be hard to fit in a writing hobby. I certainly find that all my responsibilities severely cut into my fic reading time 😉

“I have to buy groceries again?! I swear I just bought groceries! But they just posted the next chapter!” 😫📚 🤩😂

Same for me! 😳😏❤️‍🔥

Rough Enough for Love was my introduction to BDSM (We learn along with Crowley) and now I can’t remember ever thinking Aziraphale was anything other than a soft Dom 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

It is amazing how a Good Omens fic can completely change your perspective 😏👍🏻

And you certainly have personally contributed to my education, I must admit 😳👏🏻🤭❤️‍🔥😏

Apidistra 🌿 @apidistra.bsky.social · 10h

I totally know what you mean and we thank you for your service ❤️‍🔥🫡

We readers need to show our love for all you wonderful writers, even if we are a little, ahem, overcome 🥵🤭

This one author said, “My search history makes me look like a murderer but I’m just looking for cool names for dragons” 🐉😂

Apidistra 🌿 @apidistra.bsky.social · 10h

Yes, thank you so much for your fic in general 👏🏻❤️‍🔥

Are you doing Ineffable Kinktober this year? I haven’t seen you on the tag 🤔

#GoodOmensRecs: “All Creatures Great and Small” by notastranger

Aziraphale returns to Earth in the form of a mouse. With Crowley by his side, he journeys through the animal kingdom, healing himself (mad their relationship) and working to stop the Second Coming.

It can be really hard sometimes. But it does get better. And we’d all really miss you if you left 🥺🫂❤️

I hope you’re getting good care 👩‍⚕️🙏🏻

Big hugs to you 🥰🫂

Early reviews are in on my latest fic!

“fuck you for making this so good”

“what the fuck did I just read??”

”I'm so fucking confused by how hot this was.”

Come see what all the fuss is about

Do tell 😏

Surely you have an AO3 link for your fic you’d like to share? ❤️‍🔥👀

Are you participating in Kinktober this year?

Apidistra 🌿 @apidistra.bsky.social · 13h

Exactly!
They are wrong on so many levels 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️

Yeah transphobia definitely does hurt everyone 😠

I’m in the US and the national policy is so damaging that it is causing harm even in parts of the country that ostensibly follow different rules 😔

Apidistra 🌿 @apidistra.bsky.social · 15h

Yeah we are too polite on AO3 to talk about the smut 🙈😂

Even fics tagged with “Author is Open to Talking About Dead Batteries” just have people commenting “Yup, dead batteries 🥵” and that’s it 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

But you all know what I’m talking about 😏😉

Apidistra 🌿 @apidistra.bsky.social · 15h

Here there have been multiple instances of people assuming cis women with short hair are actually trans women and harassing them in the women’s restroom

Which is so ridiculous on multiple levels 🙄

I wish people would recognize that bathroom bans hurt everyone 😠 And that hair length means nothing
