‘You can do proper magic, you can make things disappear!’
‘But it’s not as fun!’
Anyway here are the favs, hello everyone else on tumblr who converted to Good Omens blogs overnight, and they’ll be made into heart buttons in July ♥ Feel free to use as icons w/ credit.
i love aziraphale’s dumb little reading glasses. should angels need glasses to read? presumably not! you’d think they could miracle their eyes to 20/20! but every possibility for their existence is good
1. he thinks they’re cool
2. he thinks eccentric bookshop owners should wear glasses
3. he’s just gotten so used to humans who look his age needing glasses to read that he brought it on himself
4. this body has always had bad eyes. for whatever reason, they decided to hand out a far sighted angelic host, and aziraphale just dealt with it for 5000 years until someone invented glasses
5. he can’t let crowley have all the glasses wearing fun
WE HAVE OUR ANSWER
Hang on, that only works, right, if you start everyone off equal, OK? You can’t start someone off in a muddy shack in the middle of a war zone and expect them to do as well as someone born in a castle.
Ah, Aziraphale had said, that’s the good bit. The lower you start, the more opportunities you have.
Crowley had said, That’s lunatic.
No, said Aziraphale, it’s ineffable.

my things for shinobi at the good omens holiday exchange last year yooo
i noticed she was fond of rose so i tried to include her!! but then i forgot she probably never encountered the weeping angels lol… my excuse is that it’s doctor who so like… what! continuity??! hahahaha (cries)
*sees this post* Oh haha I get it, Good Omens and DW crossover bc of David Tennant- *looks at the timestamp and realizes this post is SIX goddamn years old* …A- Agnes, is that you?
Wait its HOW OLD???
harry potter starts a youtube channel and all of his videos are called like:
“STORY TIME: I WAS A TEENAGE CHOSEN ONE”
“BABYSITTING MY FRIEND’S WEIRD DEAD HORSE (INVISIBLE)”
“THERE ARE DARK WIZARDS TRYING TO KILL ME BUT ONLY THREE PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT MY HOUSE”
would like to add to this post and say that harry is uploading these videos to standard muggle youtube. people see this kind of scruffy, obviously Fucked Up kid rambling nonsense into his deskptop camera and just think he is really really good at shitposting
Harry, *filming himself with one hand, throwing raw meat at a seemingly empty space with the other*: “So anyways, you guys probably can’t see him through the camera lens but this weird fuck belongs to my best friend Luna who can’t actually take care of him right now because she’s out riding drag- er, um she’s on vacation in Romania so I have to do it. Um, the only reason I can see him is because I watched my close friend get murdered by an evil wizard when I was fourteen which, by the way, was around the same time I started to think I might be gay. Anyone else?”
Teens on tumblr who have no idea he’s being completely serious: “This is the only man alive who truly Gets me.”
Mugshot of a 2-year-old Francois Bertillon, arrested for eating a basket of pears
Follow for more 1800s nostalgia
So actually these photos were taken by the kid’s uncle, Alphonse Bertillon, who was a French police officer and inventor of the mug shot. These photos were just taken as a joke, probably when Bertillon was developing his mugshot technique and needed someone to practice on.
No actual two-year-olds were arrested in the creation of these photos!
There was also an 1893
From people thinking a toddler was actually arrested, to people somehow misreading “1800s nostalgia” as “1880s,” to this person thinking a fucking daguerreotype was taken in the 1990s… this whole thread was a ride I didn’t expect to take today.
This is worse than the math post
