my main problem with objectification isn't that it's degrading and dehumanizing but that not enough people get weird and intense with it

being reduced to a mere object in someone's eyes: disgusting. revolting. i hope you die.

being reduced to a mere object in someone's eyes but the object in question is a deadly weapon, or a dangerous wild animal, or a terrifyingly powerful force of nature: [so mad with lust i feel physically nauseous] i think i hauve covid

please please please PLEASE let me be your sword i'll be such a good sharp blade i promise *begging like a dog*

maybe i like it when a female character is deeply flawed and responsible for countless deaths and so on and so forth. more female characters should be deeply flawed and responsible for countless deaths

who else up feeling a deep fondness for their beloved friends in their phone

‘you should have a separate sideblog for each of your interests’ actually my followers like the variety. they love to see me liveblog an anxiety attack and reblog 10 gifsets of my favorite little meow meow seconds later. its enrichment for them

i wonder if actors ever get their scripts and are like

well this is fucking stupid

starting a collection. pierre talking to natasha in war and peace

"I've been thinking about" something I've thought of for 5 seconds

"it just occurred to me" this has been bugging me for 11 years.

they posted a full version lol it’s mr Stacy’s dad for me

it’s on YouTube too btw! and in the description there’s links to their spotify

Poor Stacy, all her friends are so horny for her parents and there’s nothing she can do about it.

“ever since Stacy’s mom came out” may or may not have meant that Mrs.Stacy’s mom is gay, but I envision that it’s the same parent who then came out as ftm and had since metamorphosed into the most stereotypical dad to ever exist

this is like the fourth time im reblogging this. the dying the lyrics the video the dance moves the expressions this stupid fucking song is literally everything

too many people in love with Stacy’s relatives, not enough people in love with Stacy

i hope the anonymous person who sent the "i used to live in your house. i'm drunk in boston and it's the only address i know. happy holidays" postcard is aware that they wrote my favourite poem

and if one of my mutuals thinks some random character i’ve never heard of is gay well then they’re right

my favorite part is the “fuck you” at the end lmaoooo

It’s the nonchalant walk away for me 🚶🏾‍♂️😩😩

it's good for your mental health to have mutuals who are wildly horny about kinks which do nothing at all for you

this is both as in. sometimes you will realise that actually these kinks do do something for you and that can be very eye-opening and liberating

and also as in. sometimes you will hear someone decry these kinks as indicative of moral failing, and being friends with people like this makes you immune to that sort of knee-jerk outrage

Also primes you for awareness that there are a lot of people who like a lot of things you don’t like or even that make you uncomfortable, and that is okay, has nothing to do with their character, and is also none of your business.

It’s always good practice. Remember that minding your own business costs $0 and has numerous health benefits.

“Having freaky friends to immunise you against moral panic” is a take so good I can’t believe I don’t hear it more often.

"I have been attending the Devil's sacrament with you perverts for three weeks straight and you haven't awakened a fucking thing in me."

I'd like to formally thank the people of the UK and Ireland today for their rhyming prowess and forcing the Royal Mint to turn off replies to this tweet in RECORD time lmfao

And last but not least, the pièce de resistance that inspired about 90% of the hidden replies:

For anyone wondering, it was in fact meant to be "sovereign on a sovereign" 🤦

tbh shoutout to the over 40s on tumblr, sorry the internet acts like yall belong in the retirement home when ur literally just regular adults with hobbies

I was going to leave comments in the tags, but I decided this was important enough to put on main.

In college, my friend group collectively got into the SCA - Society for Creative Anachronism. They're the people who get really into medieval reenactment, the fighting and crafts and cooking, they have kings and queens and knights and events and a good percentage of them (but not all!) work or have worked at Ren Faires.

I am forever grateful my friends dragged me into that, because it was my first introduction to fandom in older adults. Middle-aged dorks. Elderly nerds. Absolutely as intense and weird and hilarious and fun as any fan in their teens or 20s. I started getting into fandom already knowing there was a road ahead for me as I got older, full of handmade costumes and late night movies and shelves of pewter dragon goblets and mixed-aged road trips to meet ups and conventions.

And it kills me that so many people don't know that sort of community even exists. On both sides, even! I went to Philcon a few years ago, which tends towards older fans, and an older woman I was talking to sadly told me that she thought fandom was dying out, because she never saw younger fans any more.

Over the past decade, there's been a really toxic movement towards keeping different ages strictly separated, both in and outside of fandom. There's this strong implication that if an older person wants to interact with a younger person, there is something inherently predatory about that.

Yeah, that attitude sucks. That drive towards separation and puritanism sucks. Declaring that younger people should have nothing to look forward to and that older people should stay separated and lonely sucks. It sucks and we are all worse for it.

Don't fear age. Don't put an age limit on having fun. Give yourself a damn future.

Beverly passed away in 2019, but she was one of many of my favorite, elder cosplayers that frequent DragonCon and remind all of us to keep playing as long as we can.

T.Rex would absolutely eat a chicken

A chicken would eat a T Rex, if it could get away with it.

Me, a chicken and a trex deciding whos gonna eat who

just saw someone claim that ‘fruity’ is a more progressive and less homophobic alternative to the f slur that straight people can use if they want to say someone looks gay and um. i know this has been said too much but you need to spend more time in the great outdoors

where’s the tweet that’s like “you go to a gay bar and call a man there a fruit u are going to get smacked in the mouth”
