One thing about the Hollander men; if you hit them with a social situation they don't know how to react to, they will straight up leave ✌️

call that the Hollander Goodbye

so grace is probably alarming to most eridians at first because he's a lanky wet alien with too few limbs, yes--but what if he ends up being terrifying in a sort of divine way instead of a repulsive one?

like. a creature that perceives the intangible? a creature that walks with thin permeable membranes bared to the air, whose blood contains elixir that can destroy pathogens without heat? a creature that is impossibly fragile yet resilient? a creature that breathes potently flammable gas to survive? a creature that is loud all over and speaks in a strange and frightening monotone, who thought it would die for you? who gave up its home in the heavens for you without meeting you first, whose first words to your people were probably something along the lines of We saved your star. It's gonna be okay. Don't be afraid.

grace is such an interesting bundle of contradictions! he breathes an incredibly flammable gas because he lives at such a cold temperature the gas can't ignite except he burns it very slowly inside the delicate gauzy cage of his body. his meat is basically a delicate water-and-protein foam because he lives in a very tiny fraction of normal atmospheric pressure. his planet has almost no air, no atmosphere. they're so gauzy, so frail, living underneath a whisker-fine sky, that to get to space in a couple seconds by exploding towards it. they can't build a space elevator because all their materials are just various attempts to do anything whatsoever with shitty frozen metals and various hydrocarbon meshes. their spaceship is a tiny refrigerator, the most expensive thing they ever built, and controled by a impossibly complex calculation engine they knitted out of silicates. it contains all human knowledge, if it doesn't catch on fire.

they knew that space was there because they can perceive it directly. it's literally right overhead all the time for their entire evolution. they know the faces of thousands, millions of stars, as soon as they tip their faces up. eridani is a name from two thousand years ago. all their stars have been named and known and watched and sung about for longer than any individual human civilization. they have always known the eridian star was there.

they live to be seventy.

Funniest part about Robin Jason canonically going to heaven is that it implies either 1) Jason didn’t kill Felipe and Bruce completely blew up their relationship for no reason or 2) you’re allowed in heaven after killing someone as long as that someone really deserved it, which would then imply that heaven itself is on Jason’s side in the Jason vs Bruce conflict.

Obsessed with the idea of Shane randomly encountering Bad Bunny at a bar just like he encountered Rose. (Because he has the BEST luck.)

But he doesn't know who Bad Bunny is, and Bad Bunny doesn't know who Shane is... So they're both just making small talk with this hot guy they met at the bar while they wait for their drinks. They're enjoying talking to someone who doesn't know their celebrity status. And Shane is getting a little flustered despite being married, because damn if this guy isn't his type, and Bad Bunny is lowkey flirting with him.

And then Ilya shows up and has a heart attack. Alternating between fanboying over Bad Bunny and wanting to fight him. Just standing there frozen with this bonkers expression on his face.

And Shane is completely oblivious. "Hey, you're back! I ordered you a beer. Oh, and this is Benito. Benito, this is my husband Ilya........... Baby, are you okay? Why do you look like that?"

[triassictriserratops]

also consider - hookup era - Shane has this exact same meeting with Bad Bunny and the two hit it off. And then there are PICTURES of Shane Hollander and Bad Bunny and Ilya has to See That™.

lavonte: i'm not gay

also lavonte:

hj this is why i'm absolutely in love with you

me and hj have done this dance before

mitch is jacked 👀

here are my very specific opinions on red wine

we love rome

american psycho is the best movie

sure i'll get on the back of your scooter to go to the food coop but first can we talk about when you fed me your blood and made me immortal and bound to you forever and we said we'd fight each other to death

[clytemnestraaa]

like it’s maybe going to sound odd but the fact that shane’s parents don’t realize he’s the horniest person alive is actually the crux of it. because it’s so clear that sex isn’t just sex to shane he is taking his entire strangled sense personhood and shoving it in the gay sex basket. it’s psychologically load bearing. it has eclipsed the basic concept of sexual desire and come to contain ALL libido and desire and want. like him being gay is almost inconsequential because it’s fine he can be gay in a bank of america pride float kind of way. but them not seeing shane as horny, not even in the way parents might typically assume their teenaged / young twenties son is horny, THAT is crazy and demonstrates that they don’t know shane at all. they bought the canadian teen heartthrob boy next door branding which they themselves designed. that’s Crazy.

[amarriageoftrueminds]

His mum in his hotel at 9 o'clock at night, his dad barging into his home without having gotten permission to come in first, as if the idea of Shane wanting/needing/deserving privacy anywhere simply never entered their minds. Is it any wonder Shane, a grown man, feels like he has to explain where he's going to Hayden, another grown man?
