I'm always going to want to read, or see, or talk about Izzy content. I want your fics. Your art. Your events and zines and w/e. He's ours now and we can write a better story for him. For us. We deserve that. Welcome to the Canyon, Izzy. You're safe here with us.

I like that Con's idea of a break has been posting as much fanart as he can and taking thirst traps with his dog. You go you funky lil man.

Nathan's Lucius quote and Con's Val quote I asked them to write at SuperCon. My artist did such a good job and has fallen in love with Con's W. I'm so happy.

Izzy Canyon- we've spent a year and change being bullied and harrased. We still managed to flourish and create gorgeous fanworks and make endless good memories. Hold onto that. I love you all. Nothing can change that.

Above All Else has been delivered to Con by

Trans character headcanons and art are 100% valid and don't conflict with any mlm or wlw ships because guess what? Trans men are men! Trans women are also women! Die mad about it, dickfuck!

Idk how half the fandom looked at a show about OLDER QUEERS discovering themselves & building a community/found family REGARDLESS of differences, and decide to be vicious, terrible little harpies because they can get away with it online.

I also need everyone to know Con signed the quote as Val. I left that part out because my boss' wife's name is Val lol. And yes, her icon in my phone is Val.

Queer people have been referring to their partners as husband/wife for ever. Like, it isn't the "hahaha gotcha" people think it is.
And, for arguments sake: if he was married to a woman, that doesn't make him (or his partner) not queer.

Everyone's homework for the weekend is to go watch Con in Dancing Thru the Dark. It's on YouTube and it's so cute and sweet. I genuinely adore it. And he's adorable as Peter.

This doesn't change what he means to us. It doesn't change what Con means to us. It's okay to be done. It's okay to need distance. I genuinely don't care if we get a season 3. I have everything I need in you guys: friendship, joy, creativity, and love.

For the nth time, Izzy's death isn't the only thing I'm upset about. How about Lucius' trauma? It's either ignored, joked about, or treated like it's a burden. How about the unsatisfying evolutions for Ed and Stede? The reduced overall queerness? I can do this all day.

meet up this morning was incredible. Everyone was so so nice and made me feel so comfortable. I think we all bluescreened when the man himself showed up. But seriously... the canyon is a huge reason I'm here and didn't kms last year so... ILU ALL.

Hey, no matter *what* happens to our lil Hot Topic Manager Unicorn- it'll all be okay. We found one another and nothing that happens in 2.8 changes that! The world is vast and terrifying, but we found *our* crew despite all that. So glad to be at home with you all in the Canyon.

I need human Izzy to also exist in the PomIzzy universe. Like, Izzy goes away on a work thing or moves for a bit and Ed adopts the Pom in that time and names him Izzy. Gets him a little bandana with a sparrow on it to match Izzy's tattoo.

Izzy Canyon, how do we feel about organizing a digital zine based around Izzy/Con positivity? I'd like to have proceeds go to a charity or two. If anyone wants to brainstorm with me please reach out!

I want to be overjoyed whenever I see the LuPete wedding. It's hard to see the joy when like... ten feet away Izzy died. Izzy should be there. He should be celebrating with his family. And I'm never going to not be upset by it.

Haunt Steddyhands meet cute idea that will not leave me. Stede takes a slightly older Alma and Louis to a haunt attraction. Stede goes first and after a scare grabs the hand of the man in front of him- Izzy. Ed thinks it's adorable. Cue Ed trying to pair them up again in line.

Earlier a dude came in, looked at my shirt as I was ringing him out, and asked if I could name three David Bowie songs. AS a DB song was playing in the store.
Did a Gentlebeardie hire this man to punk me?

My dad was a fucknut about my new tattoos and my mom tried with the whole "tattoos are for the person whose body they're on" but in that special mom way that still managed to be condescending. Here's a pic of them healed up.

If you're telling someone to kill themselves, or wishing ill will on someone, I hope it comes from a place of ignorance instead of true hate. I hope you've never felt like you'd be better off dead. I hope you've never lost anyone.

Me, a nd queer with anger issues, depression, and low self esteem, looking at Izzy.
"Nah, don't know why I like this one," I say as I fall ass over teakettle and think about Con saying "he wants to be better, he just doesn't know how" 10 times a day.

Extremely disappointed to see this in a zine I was so excited for and gladly pre-ordered both digital & physical copies of. It only encourages alienation and fighting and it's so sad to see in what was promoted as a celebration of all of OFMD.

Is it awkward? Yes. They had to do something structured though. And it's cute to see them all together and making the best of it. I wish these guys got to talk about the show, but studios need to get their shit together.

Hate hate hate how I thought the initial issues were censorship and then it was like, no, its /so/ much worse... this can't keep happening. I'm tired of seeing people hurt and upset and talked over. I'm tired of seeing people lose their spark & crap ass people speaking loudest.

Izzy's idea of Friday night self-care is a 20 minute soak in the bath (refilled with warm water once, he's not made of money) while drinking a somewhat chilled ginger ale straight from the can (why make dishes when it's his relax night).

And NO this isn't *just* about Izzy. It's about everything from telling the intended audience age to stop existing in fandom, to putting down writers and artist when they don't perform for you. For every stupid disk horse that puts down others.

So, yesterday I asked Nathan (and Con) to write out quotes for me to get tattooed. And I slipped up and blurted out why I asked for the Lucius line I asked for and Nathan was SO fucking sweet and kind and wrote it THREE times so I had options and then I got a big hug.
