You should watch yellowjackets
Lilac in a uranium glass vase at 2:45 AM.
i misread this no more than three times as “ Lilac in a uranium glass vagina” and was super confused and a little worried
watching Nimona with my kids: Yeah, knights and lazers and turning into big pink animals is super cool!
watching Nimona with straight adults: they’re playing on the Queer coded villain trope-- what? You don’t know what that is? Okay, so ninety years ago the Hayes code-- what? of course this lesson in queer cinema is relevant-- hold on I haven’t gotten to the part about COLOUR THEORY!
also, 20C outside today! Now turn the oven to 425F! Just for fun the fridge is in celsius
This publicly owned forest is measured in hectares but your personal property is in acres.
other nonsense, you buy deli meat in grams but butcher counter meat in lbs, if your slab of meat is in kg you convert it to lbs.
Going from being an introverted lurker on reddit to trying to post my own stuff here is so wild. I keep typing out a post, deleting it, then retyping because I think it's not good enough but then I look at other posts and why am I so worried?
It's like I'm at a fancy Italian restaurant and keep glancing around the room to see which hand people use to pick up the forks. But then I realize that everyone is shoveling spaghetti into their mouths using their bare hands and I'm like ah okay so I'm clearly overthinking this
This restaurant is absolute chaos and I'm giving it 5 stars
is there a word for the fanfic version of a food craving. right now my fic craving is ambrosius and ballister finally getting the nachos they deserve. i want to see every nacho date they ever had and ever will. the first the second the third the thirtieth. the pre-canon nachos and the post-canon nachos. do they have fun nacho dates? do they have angsty nacho dates? why did they choose nachos the first time around? did they ever try making nachos at home? how did ballister find out ambrosius is allergic to olives? do you think the freestyle jazz was ever involved—
anyway. i want to see the nacho tradition come to life. pls
I’ve got a list of things I want to know about guardians of the galaxy (who bought that fruit bowl in vol 2?) but one of the top ones is what was Peter’s “job” as a ravager? The obvious answers being thief and fighter pilot but then the movies go and show us Peter flirting to get things he wants/needs and when he actually talks about that aspect of his job in vol 1 (the talking Drax down in prison scene) it's just straight up, I have sex with people to get things for my job. Which presumably meant: I have sex with people, on behalf of the ravagers, to get what we need for the job. So is his ‘job’ actually thief/pilot/honey pot?
(I mean, sure you could argue that he slept with the a'askavariian from Nova Records to get information for weird recreational reasons, but it makes a lot more sense that he did it for a job)
Which leads me to: did the ravagers know that's how Peter got information? Did Yondu know? Did they assess situations then trot Peter out as bait? How do other ravagers view that particular skill? How does Peter feel about that being a part of his ravager skill set? I can’t imagine sleeping with targets/sources holds a ton of social stigma around it among ravagers because he says it pretty casually to a complete stranger (Drax at the time). He could have easily left out the ‘did it to get information’ part or even the entire a'askavariian part and just leave it as a vague caught with someone else. But nope, just gonna tell some random guy in prison that he has sex with people to get things.
It’s one of those throwaway lines that are probably supposed to be nothing more than a harhar so funny moment but now I’m left to obsess over the implications. Also, if that was one of Peter’s skills as a ravager it gives him a canon reason for being the one ravager that apparently takes care of his teeth and brushes his hair once in a while.
Anyway, Peter Quill the honey pot is like half canon at least.
found out that the long dead great aunt that my family is always comparing me to never married, never had any ‘gentlemen callers’ back on the farm but moved out and bought a house with her best friend and lived with her for the rest of her life, you know, as gals being pals did back in the 1940s...
i was just thinking about how after the war cassie mentions that a whole movie franchise has sprung up around the animorphs. so...is movie-ax always a weird CGI product or is there an andalite ambassador to earth who ends up playing all the andalite roles in hollywood
My brain tells me it would be terrible late 90s/early 00s CGI but in my heart it’s a human actor in that hilariously bad Andalite costume from the tv series.
If I got to rewrite animorphs one of the first things I’d change is having them run into Gafinilan and Mertil way earlier and have them be reoccurring characters that are just constantly like, yes I guess you could morph and rampage through the Important Yeerk Location of the Week and risk capture and death or...we could just build a bomb? and have it be a running joke: local gays constantly advocate solving all problems with epic property destruction. but narratively it would serve to plant the idea for blowing up the yeerk pool earlier AND remind readers that actually Andalites are Just Like That so there’s more suspicion as to what the Andalites coming to “save us” is going to look like earlier in the series.
Also, I’d send them off to go live in the Hork Bajir valley. The Hork Bajir would be wary of their new neighbours but also delight in trying to get them to eat bark with them. Like, you too could grow seven feet tall and have blades everywhere if you would just stomp on this pile of bark we made for you.
If Ax wore pants would he wear them like this or like this?
probably like this actually

people trying to insist a fandom is tiny when it /only/ has a few thousand works on ao3 meanwhile my current fandom is a sixteen book series and has several hundred fewer works than goncharov, a movie that, and i cannot stress this enough, doesn’t even exist
honestly, I really liked that Gamora’s happiness and ability to build a family was not reduced to a codependency on a handful of particular assholes. She can be happy with any assholes as long as she puts in the effort
every year capitalism suddenly believes in love. and every year I have to explain that actually my queerness is not couched in love
I’m queer because of the cosmic horrors
dj-nasir got the whole club complaining about his selection of metal
my mom was perusing through the little collection of animorphs books we have and she apparently read a bit of one because later she comes to me and says: I can’t believe I let you read these books when you were eight. They’re horrible! People getting shot with lasers! Holding their guts in!
I asked her what she thought they were about back then.
Her response: pet sitting books? horse books? on a spaceship? I know there was an alien.
Apparently my mom thought I was some weird pet-sitters club/horse girl mash up but sometimes there was an alien.
