barbie movie felt a little familiar to me
what was i made for?
“ophelia” by john everett millais but it’s barbie and for the sake of this concept let’s pretend that there is in fact water in barbieland
You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?
if anakin had had a pink lightsaber hilt with little charms hanging off of it he would have been okay
every time a movie from the 80s looks better than an ultra high budget 2023 disney project an angel loses its wings and fuckjng dies on impact
Everyone freaking out bc they just saw the director confess to MURDERING THE QUEEN!!
Nimona and Ballister:
Whie laughed in sheer joy. “I’m so glad you’re not coming to kill me!”
Anakin clapped him on the back, bemused. “Me, too.” Looking back over his shoulder, he said, “You might want to check this one for a head injury, Master.”

i was thinking about that post comparing Jessica Rabbit as an asexual to Barbie and an asexual and then i thought of the Neil Gaiman post (was it a post?) about Crowley and Aziraphale being asexual and then this happened.
anyways. thoughts?
Sherlock Holmes having a universal ace experience -- expressing disinterest and immediately getting called an inhuman robot.
#images#sherlock holmes#sorry i don't turn rabid and marry the prettiest girl in sight at the push of a button my dear watson
Watson is like "of course I proposed marriage to a girl I met two days ago, I'm normal and make rational decisions"
Every Sherlock Holmes remake that tries to make Watson the straight man does him a great injustice. Mfer is a total madlad. Everyone's like "oh he's not addicted to hard drugs and doesn't do chemistry experiments in his bedroom for fun" there are subtler ways to be completely unhinged.
The thing is, Watson may or may not instigate the Situations & Shenanigans, but he voluntarily spends most of his Sherlock Holmes, who DOES!
““Normal”“ people do not do that.
Watson will show up at Holmes' place and be like "are you doing any investigations of super weird shit today" and Holmes will be like "yes I am cornering this dangerous mass murderer, you should come and bring your gun in case anyone tries to shoot us" and Watson will do it without question, thinking "I'm so glad he's got something wholesome to distract himself with so he doesn't take more cocaine".
It’s not a Discworld joke unless you read it, don’t parse it as a joke, and then carry on with your life for ten years until someone stops you to say something like “It’s a pavlovian response because the dog ate a pavlova” and you scream Terry’s name with enough indignant rage you hope it rattles the pillars of the multiverse so wherever his soul is he’ll hear it.
Saw this tweet and had to collect Ryan Gosling’s best PR quotes for Barbie
Hey uh brand new addition
Wait, which series does Miles Morales first appear in? All these different series are so confusing
Ultimate Spider-Man, in the universe of the Ultimate imprint. It was the best of the Ultimate series.
Cool 👍
man, what the fuck
This is the most accurate post about getting into comic books I have ever seen.
Remember that moment in ITSV, when Miles first meets his world's Spider-Man and their spider senses do the thing?
The background behind Peter is as we'd expect; the classic red and blue.
But at first Miles' background is green and purple, two colors he's never associated with at all throughout the movie. As the moment goes on, it shifts to match Peter's.
We are literally watching Miles' fate change and the anomaly happen.
It's well established that the spider that bit him was not supposed to even be in that universe, meaning our Miles was supposed to be something else before it happened.
This isn't true for ITSV, but in every other version of Spider-Man, the main color scheme for the Prowler is green and purple.
Our Miles was supposed to become the next Prowler in his world. And the only reason he's not, is because of the original Prowler. Miles switched his fate with Earth-42 Miles.
HOW WE FEELING REBEL STANS
daily affirmations: you are isildur’s heir, not isildur himself. You are not bound to his fate.
Thematically speaking, the most important thing Terry Pratchett taught me was the concept of militant decency. The idea that you can look at the world and its flaws and its injustices and its cruelties and get deeply, intensely angry, and that you can turn that into energy for doing the right thing and making the world a better place. He taught me that the anger itself is not the part I should be fighting. Nobody in my life ever said that before.
More lessons from Pratchett:
- Good isn’t always nice (i.e. sometimes appearing nice is a luxury you can’t afford if you want to do the right thing) (this refers to setting bones and fighting evil, not to being pointlessly horrible)
- Evil can appear very nice indeed (watch out for people who smile while they deny your basic humanity)
- People can suck, be rude and actively work against their own best interests, but personkind is still something we must protect so they can keep being wonderful in between all the stupid
- “Person” is always a broader category than you think
- It’s not about who’s best for the job - it’s about who shows up and does it
- Be very aware of how you treat those in your power; you will be judged on it
- Respect women, which explicitly includes trans women (with or without beards and steel-toed boots)
- Kings: no. Hard-boiled eggs: yes
- No one - not military leaders, not kings, not patricians, not gods - no one is beyond consequences or above justice
- Addendum: those who think they are are often the worst of the worst
- Kids understand more than we think and sometimes the best way to protect innocence is to arm them with knowledge, confidence, and skill
- How you’re born is intrinsically less important and less relevant than who you make yourself into
- I can’t put it into a pithy sentence but that bit where Magrat is like “let’s toss [Lily] off the tower” and Nanny answers with “go ahead then” and Magrat hesitates bc it’s easier to do something like that together than to make the decision alone… impactful.
- Evil begins when we treat people like things.
I think Carlos' tiktok has a decent following of ppl from Night Vale who follow him cuz Cecil harasses them into doing it but also a good number of people from outside of Night Vale just trying to figure out what the fuck his deal is
In the middle of a fanfic and this shit happens

TotK No Armor Goron Responses
I saw a post showing the NPC reactions to Link wearing nothing so I took screenshots around Goron City.
My personal favorites are "Half off? You and me both" and "We got a live one!"
