today at work i rung up a customer and the total was 12.30 and i said “12:30, reminds me of a clock :)” and they kind of smiled at me with confusion and i was like “like the time on a clock, just reminds me of it… 12:30” and they said “i have no idea what you’re talking about…” with an expression of supreme pity and gentleness. after that was finished i turned to my coworker next to me and said “i just bombed so hard with this clock comment” and then realized the customer hadn’t moved and was still standing right next to me. if my fate continues down this path, the customer will probably read this tumblr post as well

the oldest reblogs for this post that i can find are from january 2nd of 2013. this can has been getting kicked around tumblr for almost 13½ years now

In 2026, the chicest thing a gay actor can do is never explicitly come out as gay but also make it abundantly clear that he is. Coming out is too modern. Staying closeted is too old fashioned. But this method merges contemporary freedom with Old Hollywood glamour and allure, and it weeds out the dumbest people who truly don’t get it. I call it the Pascal Method.

Taylor Swift does this

no she doesn’t

You clearly don't go here or to queer history and signaling, or both, enough to have this conversation and I'm not going to explain it to you. You could have asked questions, you could have done even a modicum of research. You didn't and you made yourself look ignorant. Goodbye.

I keep forgetting it's not explicitly stated in the movie so for those who haven't read the book, the fact that Rocky actually mentions Adrian in the epilogue is very important. Eridians mate for life, but when Rocky first mentions Adrian and Grace asks, "you have a mate?" Rocky responds with: "Unknown. Mate possibly has new mate. I gone a long time" (46 Earth years + years of travel time). In the book's ending, it's made a little more clear that Rocky and Adrian are still mates specifically, but still! That little line of "I ask Adrian to work on this," means a lot! Adrian waited!!!

no that's them
