Night Thorn

ending a social interaction with a friend and thinking "I think we grew a little bit closer today." in my head as if I'm a dating game protagonist

its cool that sometimes people try to have one kid and accidentally have two kids. flavorful. more things should work like that. get married and suddenly there's a second wife. pass the interview and end up with two jobs. etc. keep em guessing

“Am I the only one who—” yes. You’re all alone. And nobody shares your experiences or loves you. And you’re floating on a raft in a dark ocean and there’s sharks and squids trying to get you and lightning is crashing and the water is choppy and black

the thing about heavy handed symbolism is that sometimes. it's fun.

you guys would actually date your favourite characters? ngl i always gag a little thinking about that as a concept

Digital de-aging is bad not just because it always looks creepy as fuck no matter how much money they pour into it, but because it deprives me of getting to see the fucking black magic of a) the casting director somehow finding someone who looks unnervingly like the original actor despite not being related at all and b) the actors completely convincing me that they are, in fact, the same person at different times in their life.

And occasionally, the amusement of sticking a bad wig and some makeup on the original actor and just demanding we accept they're a teenager now.

scrolled too quickly past a post for interview with the vampire. skimming. paused and went “WOW she’s hot. didnt know they had women like that in this show”. scrolled back up. lestat.

"It's ok to disappoint people." has got to be MOST powerful, life changing advice I have ever heard.

If your gut reaction to this is "no it's not" I swear, I promise, that disappointing people, particularly disappointing people who have unrealistic, outdated, manipulative, or just plain wrong expectations of you, or versions of you in their head, is better than continually disappointing yourself. Signed, an inveterate people pleaser who FINALLY realized this and made my life almost immediately more authentic and fulfilling by acting upon it.

once you notice how the conventional oppressive ideal of The Family pervades every sociological concept including the fictional and hypothetical you really do start to feel a kind of face-peeling anguish about it all

Don’t try to universally understand how communion works in Christianity. Don’t do it. Don’t you touch that subject. Put it down. Do you want to create another denomination? Do you- Joshua, Joshua I swear to gosh put that communion subject down. Down. Put it do- and he’s founded another church. Goddamnit

I am exhausted

Rich boy x farm boy “we can’t be together because my father doesn’t approve” but the farm boy’s dad is the one who doesn’t approve and the rich boy’s dad actually seems pretty chill with the situation tbh. Having a gay son is good for pr these days, the kids love Woke

the farm boy's dad isn't homophobic either he just doesn't like the rich guy trying to use his family for pr

This, too, is yuri

Is there a reversed version of this I can use to tell my lesbian friends I think they’re a bad fit?

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
