Equal parts fandom, books, and cool shit I find.
The 102 bots that follow me think I’m cool ig

There should be a specific fashion item for keeping your sleeves rolled up. Like big clasping arm bracelets. I think this would improve morale in the gay community somewhat.

There is though

They’re called Sleeve Garters, they started off in the 19th century and where popular with musicians, gamblers, gunslingers and the occasional Victorian gentleman. Nowadays you can see bartenders wearing them

Sluts! (affectionate)

Bartenders & hairdressers.

Johnathan Harker was found white-haired, half-alive, and fully feral in the woods, spent two months screaming about vampires in a Budapest nunnery, and Mina decided to wife that immediately

Wilhelmina Harker was tormented by dark visions while she slowly and horribly turned into a creature of darkness and evil, and John decided that he’d stay totally, unquestionably loyal and loving to her

The Harkers were the Victorian equivalent of the Addams family, basically

They’re freaky and they’re feral They both are prone to peril But love, they’ve got in barrels The Harker family

Also credit to @marghen, whose Dracula designs I totally mangled in the making of this shitpost

Here’s a guide of what I’ve determined the meanings to be

walking around - self explanatory

fellowship - hanging out with friends

deliciousness - having something tasty

transcendence - feeling that you have reached a different level of some sort; alternatively, when you do one of the other delights to the extreme and feel really good about it. (you know transcendence when it happens)

goofing - having a good laugh at smth

amelioration - working towards the betterment of something, for example, working on a skill you hope to improve

coitus - fuckin’

enthralment - becoming incredibly engaged in something, hyper focusing on something

wildcard - anything that you feel was a delight in your day that does not fit one of the above delights

Actuslly I think everyone should read shitty YA it's a goldmine of unintentionally hilarious lines. This is peak literature

[Transcript: Wow, I love how cool I'm playing it. Love how I'm not being an obvious fucking fanboy for my ex-boyfriend. Hey, maybe I'll be the world's first person to enter into a parasocial relationship with someone I've literally had sex with. End transcript]

at the risk of sounding like a raving lunatic, i think one of my favorite trekkie memes/posts is that one where someone comments on a screenshot of tos and asks if sulu is texting, because it PERFECTLY encapsulates star trek's strange little place at the intersection of pop culture and the tech world:

like listen... 55+ years ago a bunch of actors had to use a mix of existing habits and wild imagination to come up with what they felt would be believable movements and muscle-memory for someone using completely unbelievable tech a few hundred years in the future. like tv had less than ten channels and the screen was a foot across, and they had to go "ok how would someone who's used to a tiny wireless gadget with a screen hold it and use it? how would they talk to a computer? how would the computer sound when she talked back?"

and over half a century later our own tech has surpassed the clunky retrofuture gizmos in so many ways, no doubt inspired by it, that now someone two decades into the 21st century sees an actor in the 60s holding some tiny rectangular plastic prop in both hands and immediately recognizes it as "oh, sulu's texting!" now THAT is a called shot. hell, that's putting your money on a roulette wheel in a casino that hasn't been built yet. i LOVE it. it's so star trek. sulu is absolutely texting.

NOT A DREAM

Did y'all know that the USA mullet championship was a thing?

I am sorry BUT IF EPIC ORTA DOESN'T WIN... WE RIDE AT DAWN!

This is possibly the coolest kid I have ever seen and him and WD are making me rethink hating the mullet.

If Cash McCoy and Epic Orta don't absolutely shatter their divisions🤌

Not me registering to vote just so I can give Epic my daily vote, it's that serious.

There are four divisions but for some reason the femullet category only had a few contestants last year and significantly less votes.

Not to mention that Mad Dog Durban was absolutely robbed! Only a finalist?

Can we take a moment to appreciate how androgynous of a haircut the mullet is?

We can never escape
