hot dog fall out of bun directly into storm drain

You can really tell that every actor in the Hadestown proshot was having so much fun reprising their roles, except for Amber Gray who I believe was genuinely posessed by the soul of a 20th century alcoholic in a failing marriage and appeared to be barely holding back tears for the entire 2.5 hour musical.

may you one day soon find the courage to open the tubberware container in the back of the fridge inshallah

marvel movies are a type of microplastic. you know what i mean

genuinely I'm so sick of people wanting all fiction to be ethical. can we all just get a little gross with it. the point of fiction is that it's not real. we can be unethical in fiction; same goes with being perverted with fiction, being unrealistic with fiction, and being grotesque with fiction. not all fiction has to be ethical, not every character has to be ethical, and that's okay. can we stop with the puritanism. be gross. be unrealistic. be whatever. if I don't like it it's not my business as long as we're all clear that its fictional.

people who feel the need to chime in on posts about not supporting hp because of jkr with AND THE BOOKS ARE AWFUL AND HORRIBLY BIGOTED TOO are so completely missing the point it's insane. the content of harry potter does not MATTER!!!! if it was the most perfectly unproblematic piece of media ever it would still be supporting jkr and her bigotry and that would be enough of a reason not to support it!!!! all you're doing is continuing to treat harry potter as something worthy of discussion instead of trying to kill its cultural relevance!!!! you are not an ally and i do not trust you!!!!

good omens is by and large a very good book with positive messages but i stopped posting about it after the neil gaiman stuff came to light bc the quality of the content doesn't fucking matter when we're talking about materially supporting people who wield their power & influence to harm others

if someone doesn't care about actual real life harm then what makes you think they'll give a shit about a pro-slavery subplot. people who care about bigotry in fiction are generally the people who care about it in real life and vice versa. and let me tell you i'm not interested in trying to persuade people who care more about house elves than real life trans women somehow i don't think those people are gonna be useful allies

por ejemplo: for as much as we talk about things like the bizarrely pro-slavery SPEW plotline, or the portrayal of the goblins in the movies in particular, I have seen very few people talk engage with the fact that "a monstrous, violent brute is in the girl's bathroom, where it Does Not Belong" is a plot point in the very first installment of the series. that's pretty relevant when discussing the author's transphobia and transmisogyny!

i mean, if someone's not convinced to stop supporting her because she is being a bigot in real life i highly doubt they're going to care that her books have some problematic aspects - and if they do, i am DEEPLY suspicious of their priorities, because no matter how bigoted the harry potter books are, they are books, what she's done in real life to make the lives of trans people in the uk miserable is immeasurably worse and makes the flaws of the book completely irrelevant in comparison. who fucking cares what she wrote 30 years ago she's being transphobic now and that should be enough of a reason to stop supporting her

sure reading secondhand copies or pirated copies or the ones you already own isn't doing anything wrong BUT if you're posting about it and being a fan you're contributing to their fame and relevance, which keeps them in a position where people will continue giving them money and listening to what they say. jkr and neil gaiman are plenty rich, they'll be fine if someone pirates their books, but if their fandoms dry up and nobody wants to publish their books or produce their shitty remake bc there's no audience THAT will hurt them. i don't care if you want to read your childhood copies of harry potter. i care if you want to be a harry potter fan publically in the year 2026 when we've known for years that the author is using the money and influence she got from harry potter to make trans people's lives harder

Maybe the most damming thing about Nolans odyssey is i haven’t seen a single gifset from it

we have to start running a massive PSA campaign to young gay people so everyone understands there is a difference between being a dom and being a top and between being a sub and being a bottom. and also that sometimes you are neither a sub nor a bottom and you're just like shy. we need to be handing out flyers we need ads at every train station spreading the word

Which is why what should be done is find some way to detach author from work that isn't some meaningless empty words about Hatsune Miku making it, as there's a perspective from which even talking about it like this by this logic is not "kill[ing] its cultural relevance". Whereas what I'm suggesting is just to make the reasons its relevance could be considered worth killing not matter

i mean i guess it would be great if we could completely disentangle her from it legally and drain her bank account of all the money she's made from it and wipe everyone's memories so nobody remembers that she wrote it but we live in the real world, so
