Babies doing the Thing with their grownups will never not be an immediate and loving reblog.

This is also important because until 1951, Indigenous kids were not allowed to dance at pow wows. It was illegal for them to participate. This is not only heartwarming, but an act of defiance against the ongoing oppression and genocide sanctioned by the Canadian government.

been thinking about revenge narratives that aren't so much the simplistic "revenge is bad" trope but moreso focus on how the avenger (lol) uses revenge as a justification for their actions towards others wielding it like a cudgel and not caring if innocents are caught in the crossfire... the transformation of victim to victimizer often through sheer blinding ego at having been wronged or having possessions (or people, especially women if you want to take a patriarchal angle) taken away

ilya would love telling their kids to stop being homophobic when they groan after he kisses shane

i still cant get over carter vaughn sitting next to closetron 3000 and 3001 and saying "yeah its rough for the gays here. i'm an ally though". hands down one of the funniest moments in the entire show

I'm seeing warnings about scammers trying to commission artists but the "reference sheet" for their character they want commissioned isn't an image but a .vbs file ("visual basic script"), and will run a script when you open it, probably to yoink your account(s), but I haven't seen this from anyone who's actually clicked it yet. Just be careful and never open a file like that, 'cause people suck.

thinking abt ilya dying in the plane crash but shane goes into the underworld and wins him back but on persephone terms so ilya lives at the cottage and they only see each other in the summer

like i think it would totally change how shane approaches his life and job as a player, he would probably care less in general but especially because his best most exciting competitor would be gone. he probably wouldn't move to ottawa. but maybe he would to be closer to the cottage? and he would certainly shut down any optional engagements during the off season. but it would also be a motivation to keep going as a player, i think, especially if ilya was only at the cottage during the summer anyway. but he'd be living in this weird limbo where his life can't move forward without leaving ilya behind, and shane wouldn't. and maybe ilya never changes too, just always stays as he was when he died. so for three quarters of the year shane is doing this hurry up and wait thing and making the most of it because that's who he is, but the center of gravity in his life has irrevocably shifted to this weird placid static dreamworld he gets to escape to for the summer that they both know isn't really a life either

Shane comes home from an early morning run to find Ilya standing in their kitchen by the stovetop, chest bare, low slung grey sweatpants on, his tangle of curls still rumpled from sleep, just absentmindedly poking at an egg white omelette in a sizzling frying pan while illuminated by sunlight streaming through the windows. Shane is just standing there frozen when Ilya glances up and catches sight of him in the doorway and just,,, grins, eyes crinkling, always so pleased to see him, "Good morning, moya lyubov. Breakfast is almost-" but Ilya doesn't finish his sentence because suddenly Shane is throwing himself across the room and into Ilya's slightly startled arms and then they're just kissing and Shane doesn't even care that he probably reeks with sweat, he doesn't care because he feels absolutely frantic with love for this wonderful lovely gorgeous man he married (married!!! They're married!!!) and Ilya is laughing into the kiss, more than likely at Shane for his eagerness, but Shane doesn't care, he can't care because he's kissing his husband (his husband!!! HIS!!) and they're definitely going to fuck in this kitchen and Shane is near crazed with happiness, he feels almost sick with it

a lot of boobie artists are really not very good at drawing how breasts actually lay when one is bare chested so it always looks like their nudie gals are wearing invisible bras. FAKE FANS!

Don’t think too hard about loverboy Shane Hollander. Don’t think about him, full of relief and anticipation when Ilya walks calmly to him in the cottage and kisses the talk of wells right out of his mouth. Don’t think about him smiling and staring adoringly at Ilya beneath him on the couch, relaxing with him. Don’t think about him being determined to take his time, to not rush and fall into old habits. Don’t think about him settling in and stroking Ilya’s face, avoiding putting pressure on Ilya’s bruised ribs. Don’t think about him phrasing his idea to be honest with each other as this spontaneous revelation, rather than something he’s been thinking about and wanting. Because that’s it right? Yes he loves Ilya for who he is, but he also wants to know more, he wants it to be real. He doesn’t want a performance. He doesn’t want Ilya to just do what he thinks Shane wants. He wants to fall in love, and yes, they already are to a point, but Shane wants to do it right now, properly, in this space between the hectic hours they’ve spent together. He wants to relax with him. For once. Don’t think about it!!!
