no pain au chocolat no gain au chocolat

the term "fridging" has become so ingrained in the world of fandom discussion and media criticism and it's so rarely meant literally that it's very easy to forget that it came from a fucking insane green lantern comic where they hated women so much they genuinely put a dude's dead girlfriend in a fridge

The word hate is being used to imply that the writers thought of women enough as to actively dislike them, when it's more like they saw so little worth on what the girl could do that the most interesting thing she could do would be getting dismembered and put in a fridge so the main character can go "that's pretty fucked up huh".

"That the painting feels like a cloudy memory and not just a scene" yes ❤️

guy working on an artwork they knew would push them technically: what the hell why do i keep doing this wrong. am i haunted by malevolent spirits and such

guy who does not do studies and does not practice shading and does not use materials of any level of quality and does not know how to use them and does not know what they are doing: what the hell why does this look bad

It really sucks that the devs were so lazy and racist as to just make the White Gloves “former tr*bals” and call it a day because the idea of hoity toity cannibals in fucking Las Vegas is actually kind of genius. The White Gloves engage directly with the class anxieties of the earliest fallout games, juxtaposing the proper, sterile, self-righteous culture of the ingroup with the brutal reality of life in the outgroup which is maintained to fund the aforementioned extravagant lifestyle. They’ve got a fountain in the desert. Like. Make it work!

Watched the 2004 Phantom of the Opera film for the first time ever, ask me anything

Look yes okay there was an edible involved BUT I don’t think that’s the only reason I spent every fucking minute of that movie enraptured, quaking with joy. It’s so wonderful that this teen girl wet dream of a cinematic masterpiece exists. This movie hit cunt full throttle

What if you were so beautiful and so talented and so tragic, and your eyes were so big and so wet, and then two men whose lives revolve around you fistfight in a pool? What if your good sweet boyfriend who is willing to die to protect you got tied up by a dangerous romantic monster who will kill to have you?? What if everywhere you went was opulent and everything you wore was stunning??? Please god listen, I am grabbing you all by the lapels and shaking, this movie is at every moment one hundred percent committed to being the shameless distillation of the best daydream you’ve ever had in math class.

there was a HORSE in the SEWERS. There was a SEWER HORSE.

i wanna hear what y'all think a gnome would be a disease vector for. i personally think 4 hours after initial bite OP develops a fever and starts compulsively seeking shelter beneath conical structures
