livestreaming the final days of rome

there’s always a next book to read, a next show to see, a next concert to go to, another friend to meet, another treat to eat, there’s always more to discover or experience

BBC Merlin is insane as a show. Its an adaptation of Arthurian mythos. It's inspired by CW's Smallville (this is 100% real look it up). it stars 4 unknown 20 somethings and British acting legends. It's aimed at kids and families. its a tragedy. Its campy as hell. It will make you cry. It asks you, like Merlin, to believe in the Golden age of Camelot. It never shows you that Golden age. Everyone in the show is the most beautiful person you'll ever see. people will clown on the CGI. Its one of the most homerotic shows of the 2000's. Its an on purpose allegory for queerphobia, but those allegorious queer characters are largely villains. If you watched it when you were 12 you will never quite be able to let it go. This is a curse. This is an experience you wouldn't give up for the world.

bbc merlin has a lot of faults but i do think the way they blithely ignored the existence of christianity was very funny of them

I think it's pretty cool that Merlin is okay with murdering someone every week. Always makes me sad when they make him well-adjusted in fanfics. Let that man be insane

you characterize that man as a strict domtop because you think he’s domineering and suave. i characterize that man as a strict domtop because i think he’s repressed and weird about penetration. we are not on the same team

hate it when you see something in media that has great kink potential so you skedoodle post-haste to ao3 only to discover there's none fic left beef and then you have to sit there going oh I see I'M the pervert weirdo I'M the problem with society and everyone else in the world is going to heaven with a hundred innocence dollars preloaded onto their ole fashioned wholesome funtimes themepark fast pass card like fuckin oath man

does anybody even have a 9-5 anymore. at some point they started making you work 8 hours not including your lunch break so it's all 9-5:30s and 9-6s and we should have killed them for it

some of you seem to be under the unfortunate impression that i enjoy finishing things. i enjoy making things

you have permission to pick that 2 year old "abandoned" project back up. it's not mad at you for setting it aside. and maybe time and distance have helped ease or erase the things that made you put it down in the first place.
