The most hilarious thing about She-ra and the Princesses of Power is this: it’s a sophisticated and critically-acclaimed 2010s cartoon, with characters who have complex, multi-dimensional relationships and well-developed personalities with interesting character arcs… and they’re all saddled with these ridiculously on-the-nose 1980s toy commercial cartoon names. So there’s the snow princess Frosta and the mermaid princess Mermista; the archer is named Bow and the sorceress is named Castaspella. The leader of the Horde is Hordak, and Catra is a cat. It’s like a version of Avatar where everything’s the same except Katara, Sokka, and Zuko are named Waterella, Boomer, and Hotman.

Thinking about Garak and his horrible eyes. Imagine being Julian and you wake up at 3 AM and fucking Jeff the Killer is staring at you in your quarters.

I love getting unaccompanied minors (kids flying alone) who so clearly just. Don't want to be here lol. Sometimes I get to know a little of their story, like their parents are divorced, or a family member died and they're heading to the funeral, but usually they just don't want to talk about it and that's fine. But I always treat the flight like it's a challenge to make them smile. I offer them snacks and soda but that's never enough, that's whatever, they could get those from an airport vending machine. Chump change. So then I tell the worst jokes. Just the most embarrassing, kindergarten teacher, annoying dad jokes you can think of. And those always get a groan, or a "Seriously??" And that's my in! Now I can say "Why, what's your idea of a good joke? No, come on hotshot, make your best joke, let's see it." And they hem and they haw but of course they eventually tell me their very best joke because kids are little competitive comedy goldmines. And it's always super funny, so I laugh, and that's where they slip up. Because you know what you almost always do when your joke successfully makes someone laugh? You smile. And I'm like. Gotcha. Rookie move. Now you're going to end up having a good time in spite of yourself. I win.

Did this with an 11yo u.m. today and he said "What did the ghost say to the other ghost?" And I said "What?" "Nothing. Ghosts aren't real."

never going to be over that time I was trying to explain polyamory to my mum, and she said "I just don't understand how someone could be in love with two people at once" and I gave her my the-cognitive-dissonance-is-causing-me-physical-pain face and she said "what??" and I very quietly said "mother....you had an affair...."

i could make good posts, but that's too easy. i make posts that go against the grain. that challenge the status quo. posts that tumblr—that the world isn't ready for yet. if you reblog my posts, you're part of a special few that see beyond the veil
