May we never become so obsessed with representation that we forget the sanctity of privacy.

“marriage is a legal document that protects you, you’ve gotta decouple it in your brain from romance and amatonormativity” the fact that marriage is a legal document that protects and privileges you (that, might I add, generally isn’t valid without romance+sex) is LITERALLY amatonormativity. A legal status that privileges people in monogamous long-term romantic-sexual relationships IS AMATONORMATIVITY. That is *what it was coined to talk about.*

the problem with a btvs sports au is that as far as canon interpersonal dynamics go giles is the only person it would ever make sense to put in as buffy's coach but having giles coach a sport is fundamentally and irreparably out of character.

on the other hand the idea that giles was like. a figure skating legend in his youth is really compelling

okay final answer. on her first day at a new school willow and xander show buffy (fifteen years old) (already a very successful skater) into the school library and buffy is like. hang on a second. is that rupert giles? and willow is like. uh yeah it says so on his office? and buffy is like. the rupert giles? and xander is like i don't think he's the anything he just kind of hangs out in the library and gets mad when you don't return the books on time. and buffy is like rupert giles who [insert list of achievements here]? and xander's like that guy? nah. and buffy is like. hang on. i need to talk to him. and goes up to giles and is like "hi. are you rupert giles?" and he looks at her, recognizes her, and is like. who? and buffy rolls her eyes and is like. what are you doing in this library. and he's like. well you see i'm a librarian. and long story short she spends the next at least six months to a year trying to convince him to give her figure skating advice while he tries desperately to avoid her and/or talk about literally anything but figure skating

The most interesting thing about watching all the Bond movies in order hasn’t actually been anything to do with the series itself, but watching the world slowly change. Bond is kind of unique in this because it’s one of the only media franchises that’s been running uninterrupted for 60+ years, while always being set in the “present day,” primarily taking place in somewhat realistic settings and places, and not being 100% sci fi to an extent that divorces it from the overall look of it’s contemporary reality. James Bond, unlike any other series, really, allows you to watch the real world slowly change from the early 60s to 2021, in increments so brief it feels as if nothing changes from film to film, and yet by the time you get to the end everything is different

I have just enough knowledge about archaeologists working for the American federal government to write the most boring stargate: SG1 fanfiction ever put to page. Everyone be thankful I have not inflicted it upon you.

Kids sitcom about a group of friends where all of them are a part of secret magical or superhero based underground society that don’t know about each other and they all think that the others are ignorant normies that they have to protect from their magical shenanigans.

The witch kid, the superhero sidekick, the cryptid hunter, and the half fairy kid are all unknowingly trying to hide the same talking cat from the principal of their school and the talking cat doesn’t tell any of them about each other because it’s currently getting many extra helpings of treats in exchange for its silence.

During the episode where they all find out about each other’s secret lives there’s obviously a slow look over to the cat who’s like “well you never asked. Anyways, completely unrelated but I’ve gotta go.”

As more seasons pass, it's eventually revealed the rich kid who bullies the main cast is secretly child of some dark lord all the societies fear and eventually the bully works with the main cast to defeat them in the series finale or movie

Yeah I’m down for some 8th graders taking down the devil that’s good tv

“but he did [this horrific thing]” i am neither his keeper nor happy with every single decision he makes. Also he is not real

wedding dresses are white specifically so that if the bride goes axe-crazy you can rest assured you will see the blood stains all over her and it'll be sick as fuck
