there should be more ages where you unlock abilities. 18 vote. 21 drink in american bars. 28 you get to get to tell a cop to fuck off once a year. 40 you get to use blow darts. 55 you get a list of every celebrity who's psycho. 70 immune to poisons

“she just died, try to have some respect, she was a human being” that sure is a lot of words to tell me you’re not indian or pakistani or bangladeshi or irish or welsh or scottish or jamaican or west indian or kenyan or south african or zimbabwean or working class or princess diana

horror movie set in the countryside where they just trap the slasher/monster/whatever in a grain silo or run them over with the combine harvester. let's see ghostface try to stab his way out of grain entrapment.

the reason you see more horror movies where the victims are city folk or tourists is because rural folk have guns that'll turn you into swiss cheese and aren't afraid to use them if they hear a noise outside

horror film antagonists ranked by how likely they are to survive an encounter with a local farming community

I think abt the left 4 dead 2 graffiti so often. Like they really had the human condition nailed huh.

imagine you start watching this new show and it’s a silly little show about space set in the future then they announce the next season so you wait excitedly for five months and finally it’s here… you all sit round the tv and suddenly one of the main characters who is known for being unemotional starts going mad because of “biology…” and you slowly realise that he needs to have sex or he’s going to die so the other main character risks his entire career to help him out then they start ‘wrestling’ on the sand and the one going through the mating fever ends up killing the other guy which ends the fever but now he’s depressed because he just killed his best friend but wait he’s not actually dead the unemotional one is overjoyed everything’s fine and then they go back to work like nothing happened… you look at everyone else sitting in stunned silence thinking “did any one else think that was a little… yknow” then you accidentally start modern fandom and shipping culture

very much enjoying the tags thank you everybody

Wait till they all actually watch it and see the unnecessary titty window situation.

[ID: A collection of tags that read:

Based on some of the first-hand accounts I’ve read, fans already had thoughts in that direction but were very cautious about expressing them, because, you know, it was 1967 and they were nice suburban ladies. They referred to the idea of Spock and Kirk being in love as The Premise. One little housewives’ fan club in California wrote to Leonard Nimoy in the hiatus between seasons one and two, and he was very pleasant and agreed to come and meet their group and tell them about being in the show. They didn’t say anything about The Premise directly, in case it offended him, but of course they expressed their enthusiasm for the rapport between Kirk and Spock and how curious they were about Spock’s background and inner life. And Nimoy, who was working on season two by that time, said that he couldn’t give away any specifics but there was an episode coming up that would focus more on Spock’s personal life and the planet Vulcan, and they were naturally delighted and intrigued.

So when they sat down to watch season two, episode one, “Amok Time,” they were primed for an important Spock episode, and then that played out before their widening eyes and I think it’s safe to say it blew their beehives clean off their heads.

#lmao#star trek#lest we forget the literal binders of loose leaf paper with HAND WRITTEN FANFICTION being handed around#thank trekkers for fan fiction you literal babies

...And this is exactly how some of us got onto the path toward getting into SO MUCH [GOOD] TROUBLE later in our lives. Handwritten fanfic... pages and pages and PAGES of it. Tens and hundreds of thousands of words of fanfic. In looseleaf binders.

Just remember: “The first million words are for practice.” :) After that... all bets are off.

And it's also worth bearing in mind that Amok Time was written by Theodore Sturgeon. Sturgeon was a bisexual writer (according to his friend, gay author and academic Samuel R Delany) who wrote "The World Well Lost" (1953) which may have been the first SF story about homosexuality to be published in a mainstream SF magazine, not to mention gay-coded stories like "The Saucer of Loneliness". Ted Sturgeon was a brilliant writer about love, and he knew exactly what he was doing in Amok Time. Although he might not have known what it would spawn.

And if you are curious to read some of his fiction there's a Selected Short Stories of Theodore Sturgeon out there, and the novels The Dreaming Jewels and More Than Human appear to be in print.

people who watch musicals and bitch about how it doesn’t make sense that the characters randomly burst into song are so funny to me. babe it’s literally a musical like this is the standard of the genre what did you expect

THAT'S THE WHOLE PROBLEM WITH THE GENRE AS A WHOLE, THAT'S THE POINT

i’m sorry you’re allergic to fun i’m sure that makes life very difficult for you

I think we should do this but leave Colorado alone so there’s just an extremely jarring rectangle in one part of this

I like how you think.

enough. to the Box with you

this is the funniest god damn thing ive ever seen

Somebody dropped they pronoun

gender is a performance and im getting heckled by those old gay muppets

sorry theres not a single person on this website id pay to follow idc if we’ve been mutuals for six years, if you put up a paywall we’re done

{ID: an image of Bernie Sanders captioned with text saying "I am once again asking my mutuals to complete the Post+ survey to keep Tumblr free. Post+ is a terrible idea and WILL fuck over anyone who could possibly benefit from it"}

Wait there's a survey where is it?

OH ME GOD TY

GUYS YOU CAN ANSWER MULTIPLE TIMES

DON’T DO THAT. Look. I’m a researcher that uses online surveys A LOT. You know what happens to a flood of replies from the same IP? They get flagged as a bot/ballot box stuffing and deleted.

Answer once. Answer clearly. Don’t try to be clever or cute. I guarantee whoever came up with this BS will be just itching for any reason to toss stuff that doesn’t reflect well on their idea. “Cause corporate entities aren’t bound to data ethics the same way academic researchers are.

People are always talking about making John Green say “I love cocks” when it comes to having fun with tumblr’s ability to edit everyone’s posts but that one post where that person was saying fuckers and it got repeatedly edited to fudgers and meaners was 10000% funnier

This one?:

#none of this reaches the level of one time when staff made a post about a website update #and someone deleted the whole post and instead wrote #Were Deleting This Website Sayonara You Weeaboo Shits #i think about that literally every day its been ten years #every night i think to myself Sayonara you weeaboo shits (@cryptovocel) 

here u go
