somehow instead of saying "as a treat", I've started using the phrase "for morale", as if my body is a ship and its crew, and I (the captain) have to keep us in high spirits, lest we suffer a mutiny in the coming days.

and so I will eat this small block of fancy cheese, for morale. I will take a break and drink some tea, for morale. I will pick up that weird bug, for morale.

I'm not sure if it helps, but it does entertain me

Uh??? The facts abt ur parents??? Whadda hell would u be open to doing more facts abt ur wild parents bc I love them

Sure! They’re very weird.

  1. My dad regularly sings to my mom about how much he loves her while standing exactly in the way of whatever she’s trying to do
  2. My parents didn’t marry until I was 4 and they regularly forget that they’re spouses. They generally refer to themselves as partners
  3. My mom proposed to my dad by yelling at him from a room away that her taxes were fucked and they had to get married to which my father replied “this is how I always dreamed you’d ask me!” and pretending to swoon
  4. My dad appears as an actor in the movie Swoon, supposedly an important piece of queer cinema 
  5. My parents were both punks in their youth
  6. When I came home for thanksgiving with a mohawk, unannounced, my mom started crying because I looked “so handsome” and “just like your dad” and kept petting my head 
  7. My dad only says “that’s my boy” to me when I say something gay about men
  8. My mom and dad have the same taste in women but opposite taste in men
  9. One time we were watching a movie set in Chicago and my mom turned to my dad, and in the most sentimental mom voice, said “Chicago honey! We haven’t been there since the anarchist convention!” 
  10. My dad worked on California’s weed legalization bill

The anarchist version of gomez and morticia

let me be delusional. let me believe that annabeth heeded percy's advice at the end of the summer and went to virginia, only to realize that in the five years she's been away, her father hasn't changed. let me believe that annabeth ran away from home once again, intending to live at chb until she's old enough to live on her own. let me believe that during the boat ride she and percy go on later that year in the SOM, annabeth admits that she's been staying at camp since a few weeks after the summer ended. let me believe that after the quest, percy offers annabeth his living room couch in case she ever gets tired of being at camp all the time. let me believe that annabeth takes him up on the offer one night and sally does her best to make her feel welcome. let me believe that annabeth starts visiting the jackson residence more often, so often that she has extra pairs of clothes and a toothbrush over there. let me believe that when annabeth falls off the cliff and gets held hostage in TTC, all she wants to do is go home, and for the first time, 'home' stops meaning the sixth cabin in a bordered-off summer camp, or a thirty-minute nap in an abandoned alleyway - it starts to mean a certain apartment in manhattan with blue chocolate chip cookies and the occasional movie nights on the living room couch. let me believe that after TTC, sally sits annabeth down at the kitchen table and asks if she feels comfortable with her filing for guardianship. let me believe that a few weeks later, annabeth is sitting in a court room, squeezing percy's hand as they watch sally fight for custody over her. let me believe that as soon as the judge grants sally guardianship, annabeth cries into percy's shoulder because after years of running, she's finally found a family that chooses her.

Kuro Neko au where, when trying to trick Marinette into letting him take the ring back to Adrien under a new guise, Plagg accidentally lets slip some of how his holder is actually feeling. Marinette bribes the real story out of the kwami and is horrified by her partner's self-worth issues, so she decides on a better plan: they'll become Lady Noir and Mister Bug again for a while. Hopefully intrusive thoughts about not being needed will be easier to counter when the Ladybug is absolutely pivotal to every battle, and Tikki's more supportive style might be good for him to get a taste of until the kids can repair their partnership. But. Tikki: If you ever even think of leaving my Miraculous on a random rooftop instead of just telling your partner how you feel, you will find out why Plagg is afraid of me and not the other way around. (Plagg has mixed feelings about how things turned out. On the one hand Marinette spoils him with love, attention, and cheesy pastries, she's a lot more chaotic than Adrien, and she's fun to tease. He also still gets to spy on his kid at school, and he can see the progress Adrien is making. On the other hand Marinette has much higher expectations for him than Adrien did... and all the other kwamis clamoring around is both a blessing and a curse.)

thinking about the potential of percabeth if they were born as roman demigods. as children of gods that aren’t respected in rome. they would cause so much chaos i just know it. percy’s first week there and annabeth’s like i bet you can’t flood the camp. (he can. she knew it too)

i think i just want outcasts bestie percabeth slow burn but can you blame me

ok but like…the fact that percy and annabeth…percy and annabeth…ie one of the best and healthiest fictional couples that basically invented romance (the slowburn, the nicknames, the first kiss, the realizing feelings, sharing the weight of the world, percy giving up literal immortality for annabeth, the amnesia storyline in son of neptune where annabeth’s name was the only thing percy remembered, just all of house of hades, etc.)…the fact that that couple is going to be portrayed as an interracial couple is just so great, i’m literally going to cry.

I keep thinking about a Sandboy 2.0 scenario where Marinette and Adrien get hit with the nightmare dust while they're together as civilians, and Marinette's nightmare is Cat Blanc and Adrien's is his knockoff Cat Blanc nightmare from Representation. And their reaction is to be like "omg... we even have the same nightmare..... we're soulmates ❤️" while not even thinking to question why the other one is so scared of Cat Noir turning white and killing everybody

one of the things i love about nick and charlie is how much they just genuinely like each other. and i’m not even talking romantically, i just mean how much they truly enjoy spending time with each other and how much fun they have together even before they’re a couple. it’s obvious from their first interactions that they bring each other so much joy and that hanging out with each other makes them both so happy. it’s a huge part of what makes their relationship so strong because it was built on this genuine connection and grew from such a pure friendship that was a bright spot in both of their lives and i can’t wait to see more of their dynamic in season 2

fuck it barbie movie but make it ladynoir

sorry but the entire ‘i’m just ken’ song warner bros just released is SO ladynoir coded. she is everything, he’s just ken (as every f/m ship should be). thank you chat noir for being The Most ken of all time.

meetcute idea: your packer slides down your pant leg and falls out and you’re mortified as hell but a guy picks it up and puts it in his pants instead and runs away reallyfast so you have to chase after him and get ur oenis back

After one bad customer too many, a retail worker is akumatized. Among their powerset is a scanner that analyzes its target and assigns them a numerical value, which hovers above their head. The problem? It's not clear what criteria targets are being rated on. Chat Noir has the highest recorded rating at 99, while the scanner flat out refuses to rate Ladybug and spits out a noisy error. Everyone else hit has displayed a wide range of seemingly arbitrary numbers. No obvious pattern to it has emerged yet, and at some point in the battle - much to Ladybug's exasperation - civilians started getting hit on purpose as it became a meme to compare numbers and guess what it means. But the real chaos starts when it rates Chloe a zero. Currently she's almost more dangerous than the akuma, on the warpath to figure out what she's being scored on.

Alicia: I did spend a night with your friend, yes.

Jack: what the fuck?

Bob: your mother has needs! and I'm not as young as I used to be. I appreciate the help!

Jack: what the fuck??

Alicia: I understand if this is strange and uncomfortable for you to know but we need to be able to talk about these things as a family!

Jack: we really don't!

Holster: It seems to me like you're holding onto some serious anger there, bud. Want to talk about that?

Jack: WHY ARE YOU HERE
