i love that one old timey 1910s trans dude who has a tiny wikipedia page for himself that he earned entirely due to him starting fights in bars and being the city’s hottest casanova

[pochowek]

i mightve remembered it wrong but it still feels like half of this page is “I’m A Man For Fucks Sake” and the other half is “That Motherfucker Is In Jail Again And Also Bit A Cop”

[saxifraga-x-urbium]

oh my GOD this is the best list

“ “[DEADNAME] Again" “ 

Like this glorious jerk got arrested so many times that was literally ALL THEY HAD TO WRITE IN THE PAPER

[television-for-dinner]

He was a vagrant street kid and Seattle girls were all over this guy, to the point where it caused a moral panic. There’s a famous anecdote about a women proclaiming her love in Denny Park and then trying to shoot herself, but most of these reports were falsely worded in a way that suggest his female admirers were “upset about being deceived” when really they were upset that he was wooing other women, or trying to get his attention by being as extra as possible.

What you also should know is that back in the day “seduction” was a literal crime that could put you in prison (unless you married the woman you seduced) but since he wasn’t cis they couldn’t really CHARGE HIM with anything. Legend.

I especially like “Seattle Woman Appears in Men’s Clothes Because She Says Her Features Make it Possible.”  I can’t imagine anything but someone going “Hey!  You can’t dress like that!” and him responding “Oh yes I can.  You see, I look very good.”

I want a TV show about him

bad doggo, put beez down!

Okay, so you may already know about the Link To The Past randomizer. And that people speedrun it.

Now, apparently, they have an interface set up so the chat watching the speedrun can mess with the players.

This is absolutely perfect brainless entertainment. Go watch.

listen I played myself. “A Good Omens-based garashir AU practically writes itself,” I said. 

Now I’m deeply invested in this and I can’t decide which one of them is the angel and which is the demon.

Although actually, considering the spirit of the source material, that’s probably a good sign.

points for Bashir as the angel and Garak as the demon:

• Bashir is from the Federation, and the Federation can be very Good Omens heaven tbh.
  
• he can be, uhh… preachy. He heals things for a living.
  
• Garak is from the Obsidian Order. They uh. Are kind of. “Love, bad. Kill people, good.” Funny old world, if Obsidian Order agents went around trusting each other.
  
• He. Literally. Is a scaly reptile creature in vaguely human form and the place he hails from is dark and hot.
  

On the other hand!

Points for Garak as the angel and Bashir as the demon:

• Garak owns a shop. He has a public identity that is extremely equated with his shop. There’s a lot of other stuff behind that, but the public identity is important to him.
  
• Books! Food! Alcohol! Richly detailed, warm and comfortable-looking clothing!
  
• Speaks in a slightly more formal mode. Sometimes even slightly stiff.
  
• Bashir… saunters.
  
• He’s the one who makes an effort to be suave, and the one who seeks out speed and excitement. He’s the one who’s always up on the latest tech. He likes to think that he is Cool.
  

Anyway

if I did write this I would probably go for angel!Bashir and demon!Garak because those are more logistics points and the second list is more about personality

so I sort of picture it being more like a “what if there was an angel like Crowley and a demon like Aziraphale” AU

I probably won’t write it though, I have very little time and energy to spare!

@tinsnip would you like to contribute ideas, write this, or attempt to convince me to write this?

[apiaree]

Grass on the Dunes! Inspired by @tinsnip’s beautiful fic, The Smallest Things.

this is so smoopy I kind of want to hit myself (and yeah I drew Julian in his horrible Risa outfit. I know everyone headcannons that Garak hates Julian’s clothes but my pet theory is that Garak is the reason that he dresses like that. I also think he’s responsible for some of Jake’s outfits. So of course Julian would bring his weird clothes with him to Cardassia.) 

Also, friendly reminder that I’m still accepting commissions!

A cutesy DD9GB for the frequent high-scorer on my list of favorite humans, @tinsnip, on the occasion of her getting older.   We met because of these two, so this always feels appropriate.  

Cross stitch themed overall, but also includes a few other things she enjoys (like unicorn tears lipstick)~  

much love and many tildes my dear~~ <3
