on my second viewing of obsession, i had the realization that nikki’s story at the party wasn’t the movie using incest as an easy shorthand for making the audience uncomfortable or creating a general “things are off” vibe but was another way the real nikki was crying out—a metaphor for the fact that nikki, like gretel, is being made to fuck her “little brother” (bear) under duress, at the behest of an external magic (the witch’s spell in her story; obviously, bear’s wish)

Just saw the interview where Curry Barker explained that it's totally possible to get a normal wish from the One Wish Willow, and I love the way they did that so much. The reason Obsession happened isn't because it's trying to twist Bear's desires into something evil. It's not even because he phrased his want wrong. Obsession happened because Bear got his hands on a magic item that could do anything in existence, and chose to force someone to fall in love with him, which is an inherently evil thing to do.

people will understand that owning an exotic carnivore as a pet is a high-risk activity that requires extensive care, research, training and resources to even begin to approach something resembling a safe and ethical situation but if you say anything about how they probably shouldn't let their 160lb untrained mastiff off leash at the mall to growl at toddlers they'll be like but he's just a pupperino and also you LITERALLY brought a human baby within my eyeline, which is a form of violence

#‘el pastel promedio tiene tres leches’ es en realidad un error estadístico. El pastel promedio tiene 0 leches. Leches Georg#quien vive en una cueva y absorbe 10.000 leches al día#es un valor atípico qeu no debería haberse contado (via @deathbycoldopen)

I don't speak Spanish but I understand every word

I appreciate 'adn' being preserved in the form of 'qeu', that's absolutely beautiful.

It’s called the brothers grimm rather than the grimm brothers cause you might think the were just two dour lads. Whereas it’s called the wright brothers and not the brothers wright lest you mistake them for a single craftsman who is skilled at manufacturing guys

One of my greatest flaws as a poster I think is that I am prone to this sort of cleverness. The sort of wordplay you might expect a middle aged British man to deliver with a twinkle in his eye on daytime television to an audience that does not laugh but does applaud. Which has its place, certainly. And is satisfying to write and to read. It certainly tends to have the potential for online vitality. Just know that to me this type of wordplay/rhyming heavy post is dirt. Good dirt. But not shit compared to what I truly love (being incomprehensible and offputting)

a body count not as in homicide nor as in sexuality but as in the trail of people from my childhood and adolescence i should’ve been a better friend to and taken better care of but i was too busy being caught up in my own heartache to recognize their own and therefore our relationship tapered off in an extremely unsatisfying way that continuously manifests itself as a thrumming sense of grief in my chest. anyway which restaurant chains have the best free pre-meal bread?

The fact this isn't a painting is a testament to one of the greatest feats of set design and production I've ever seen.

People who have a pervasive shit attitude toward everything are extremely exhausting to be around. No, this doesn't make you a bad person for having trauma or depression. You're allowed to go through hard times and lean on others for support. But there is a point where being negative and spiteful about things all the time is not only self-defeating but harmful to your relationships. There is a meaningful difference between talking about your struggles vs. almost pointedly refusing to engage with opportunities for positive experiences/emotions. The latter becomes contagious and fatiguing for people around you, because you're essentially expecting them to dig themselves into a hole, too. It can even start to feel like you're punishing others for enjoying things if you're not happy. And it's wrong.

Like my mother will often respond to a comment that's positive or happy by talking about how she's unhappy, upset, or angry about things, and she does it with a spiteful "good for you" tone. Absolutely nothing I say will get her to acknowledge that she's still being shown support and caring even if people aren't willing to be miserable with her all the time. It's a very unhealthy and emotionally immature trait. If this is you, I strongly suggest that you look at ways to improve your distress tolerance and consider the emotional impact you have on others. It is NOT others' job to regulate your emotions or fix all of the wrongs in your life for you. Other people's happiness or attempts at happiness aren't a betrayal.

The bottom line is that it does actually matter how you frame things, sometimes. A lot of the time. Are you committed to being miserable because you take some form of satisfaction in it, and is that maybe preventing you from being healthier and happier?

this is the one meme that manages to age like a fine wine

I bet gollum gives the driest head imaginable like you'd be all up in his throat feeling like ur sticking your dick in sand paper with dust flying out every time he gags

The majority of replies to this post are telling me to die but my favorite are the ones disagreeing with me cause gollum is described as wet and slimey. So don't worry everybody rest assured that according to the text gollum doesn't cough up dust when he gags he's actually the #1 throat goat with a slimey sloppy ushy gushy thrussy that can take 10 inches like its nothing
