naught but fire and starlight

TBH we give tumblr a lot of shit rightfully so but tags is such a good feature like i need to say this. under my breath. but i need to say it. and youll listen. youll fucking love it even

guys youre allowed to like things. youre allowed to spam post about your hyperfjxation and youre allowed to constantly post about The Character. its your blog. your mutuals like seeing you enjoy things i promise.

the thing about Tangled is that this is a story geared towards little girls (even if it's "fun for the whole family," it's a disney princess movie, it's geared towards little girls), and it says, "here is a girl who is naive and doesn't know anything about the 'Real World' or how to navigate it safely and correctly. now pay close attention: the good guys are the ones who help her grow and explore new things while still respecting her own perspective and feelings, not making her feel stupid. the bad guys are the ones who tell her that she is too weak/immature/naive to do the things she wants to do, because she is fragile and needs protecting." and I watched this when I was nine years old and it resonated deep in a part of me that I couldn't articulate with words yet.

Fun to see this going around while bluesky is down

Do it scared but please don't do it hungry. Please don't do it dehydrated. It's gonna make it so much scarier. Please.

nice medievalism you’ve got there. why is it entirely in shades of grey and brown

someone remind these guys that the concept of color existed prior to the 17th century

Doug Jones and Danny DeVito in a buddy comedy about a couple of elderly former henchmen unwillingly dragged out of retirement for one last caper. There's a running gag where they claim to be the original duo that the "one of them is short and fat and the other is tall and thin" trope is based on.

Playing against the trope's conventions (but to the actors' respective strengths), DeVito's character is the talkative one while Jones' character hardly says a word. The former argues that popular media always has it the other way 'round due to prejudice against short people.

"the fandom is dead" so revive it. yes you. anyone can be start this. you don't have to be an artist or writer or vid maker or make edits to get things moving again. crawl through tags & share existing posts. comment on fic. queue art from a decade ago. shout about how much you love the thing. if you have the energy and desire, make some new stuff. write a fic. doodle your favorites. organize events. your enthusiasm might end up drawing people back. things probably won't ever go back to what they were at the fandom's height but love the thing loudly, even if it's just you

running up the hill to make a deal with god again. anyone need anything
