#out of context every tos scene is an opening to a gay porno

mordred’s actions are entirely excusable unless you can say with certainty that in mordred’s precise situation you would not end up doing the same thing. like oh he destroyed camelot? okay let’s see how you’d handle growing up with the orkneys

i hate when men complain about women’s body hair, even like the fine hair on their backs. go fuck a shark if you wanna have sex with something hairless

This post got weird

This post started with fucking hairless sharks. Weird wasn’t a destination so much as a jumping off point.

I’ve never been so surprised not to encounter the word “smooth” in a text post

Smooth shark post happened circa 2017, this post occurred in 2013 (posted) + pun added and 2015 (Jennytrout enhancement), years before smooth sharks would be discovered and revealed to the public.

shakespeare is lowkey more progressive than most writers these days and that is a hill i am willing to die on. he lets women be loud and clever and tricky and stubborn and delighted and fierce. AND he has a million little twinks who are just adorable. looking right at u, claudio

doomscrolling tiktok together and I turn to you and ask, "why doesn't your algorithm recommend any videos with Black people?"

i cant stop thinking about him. is he just there to indicate further that this is an ocean scene? is he specifically watching all of this go down? is he attempting to lure odysseus in with his own siren song of lobster? many possibilities

one thing that i love in good historical fiction is well-chosen weird period detail. like subtly weaving in small things that are unexpected or don’t mesh with the audience’s perceptions of a particular time and place (either because they’re contrary to the received cultural narrative about an era or because they’re not often talked about in the period drama zeitgeist etc) just enough to be a little bit jarring, thus increasing the audiences’s sense of strangeness and distance which in turn increases the buy-in? a dedication to and a deftness with historical detail that alienates and fascinates the reader at the same time? i don’t know that it makes or breaks a given piece, i think some authors skip this all together and others go too hard and end up with the “redolent with spices” problem but its a craft thing that i always appreciate when i notice it in histfic
