Real Toads & Mountain Gnomes

I'm very taken with this metal vocalist that has a parrot who wants to participate

“Ariel sold her voice for legs just because of a guy“

and i mean hell this has been talked about before in more depth than i can, but when people complain about how the ending was changed (the original fairytale does not give ariel a happy ending, she dies trying to protect the prince), i think about the fact that this was written by a gay man in the 1980s

Triton made escape a necessity. Once someone goes to the point of destroying your possessions in a violent rampage, there is no staying and sticking it out, there’s no safety. (And Ariel, even in Ursula’s lair, gave Triton more thought than he deserved at the time.) Nowhere in the ocean she could go and be safe. Everyone’s always ‘why don’t they just leave :|’ in abusive situations until the leaving is not something they find 100% worthy of approval.

there has been scholarly discussion about the idea that the og little mermaid story, where she dies at the end, was written as a queer allegory.

The bit about Howard Ashman being queer is finally giving me some glimmer of understanding of why the teenaged girl mermaid is named “Ariel.” Because, although the Disney movie single-handedly changed popular perception thereafter, Ariel is a boy’s name. Howard Ashman absolutely knew that.

I’ve pointed out to my friends that the fact that Kermit and Miss Piggy’s kids are like that means either

Just wanted to show u guys that in Muppets Most Wanted, Piggy fantasizes about her and Kermit having babies and this is what they look like

Recall that in The Great Muppet Caper, Kermit and Fozzie are brothers. And this was their dad (right):

I, for one, think Shrek handled interspecies coupling the best. By this I am of course talking about the Dronkeys.

I am reminded of Treasure Planet.

I always thought that in muppet movies like muppet Christmas Carol the characters are played by the muppets (so kermit is acting and playing the role of Bob rather than being him) so the kids in that film would just be other acting muppets right?

Last time I saw this

In Leo the Lion (2005) a lion and elephant have the most cursed hybrid children and I think yall should see them

Money saved: maybe a couple million dollars.

Never forget that DOGE was formed so Elon et al could fumble around sensitive government databases in order to hamper multiple investigations into his companies and government contracts

That's how you show real solidarity!

How to Ride a Werewolf

That’s not how you ride a werewolf ill show you how to ride a werewolf !!

ok sorry to double reblog BUT I just looked him up and he does these fantastic videos where he breaks down HOW he actually mimics the other artists’ styles. Like for ed Sheeran, he explains how he brings his voice forward in the mouth, while Adam Levine sings in the back of the mouth, stuff like that. It’s SO COOL, I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone actually break down how to do this sort of thing, as a skill, instead of just treating it like a neat trick they just happen to be good at. https://www.tiktok.com/@justinjmooremusic

The electric eel at my aquarium has a voltmeter attached to his tank, and whenever he pumps out a burst of electricity–either when he’s navigating his tank or getting fed–the meter lights up and makes noise. Sometimes, I’ll walk past him when he’s snuggled up and totally motionless on his log, and see the voltmeter going crazy.
