And I know I've got Rose and Shaun and you. And the biggest sausage roll I've ever seen, frankly. I should be happy. I should be really happy. But some nights, I lie in bed, thinking... "What have I lost?"

Alway next to each other (and arguing)

After 13 years of this, it's still funny to me that detailing a full mental breakdown on tumblr is standard fare, but posting a nice selfie is a fraught decision.

[loki-zen]

this is the correct way around and every other social media site is wrong

What is Tumblr?

Tumblr is the opiate of the very, very few.

Fun side effect of taking two months to watch an episode. You get to be surprised all over again when SandRay pop up out of nowhere 😂

[bestillmyslashyheart]

Its been like 2 months since it ended but I finally watched the last few eps of Life in Smokey Blue and I'm gonna miss this show. I've never seen anything like it, so soft and gentle and just....slice of life type story where there's no big dramatic plot just two guys building a life together that works for them

[whatagrump]

Ending a dramatic, tragic series on a joke that’s a) genuinely funny and b) connects in a meaningful way to the themes of the show is really A++, I mean honestly.

actually im not done buffy is transgender for real. she's a girl, but she's something else too that the other girls at school aren't, and she knows that that identity automatically makes her an outsider from all the other girls at school. she likes who she is, but sometimes watching Cordelia, she can't help but long for the ease of being "normal". her friends love and support her, but they aren't like her, and she knows that means there are some parts of her life that they'll just never understand. she wants to be homecoming queen so badly, if only to prove to herself that she can be this other thing and also a regular high school girl at the same time. how she tries to hide her identity from her mother for as long as she can. how when she finally tells joyce, they get in a huge argument because joyce is so afraid of what this means for buffy's safety that she tries to stop her from being herself. the fact that buffy, arguing with her mother about her own identity, says "You think I chose to be like this? Do you have any idea how lonely it is? How dangerous?" The fact that a stranger tells her "But you're just a girl." and she says "That's what I keep saying."

Oh, what is the greatest smile in the world, you say? *Looks at you fondly* Louis Armstrong

I think he is a pretty good contender

"Grace and Rocky saved two planets of intelligent life." Yeah, so did Eva Stratt btw. Do you know how much caffeine that woman must've been on to get major power on earth to coordinate, to organize the world's first interstellar spaceship in just FOUR years, and you know,,, to tie her best friend to the train tracks and blast him to space. Yeah Grace and Rocky did all that. But holy shit Stratt did all that too.

[tulpamom]

Can't stop thinking about the scene in the movie where she has the two huge coffees and then the line in the book where Grace is like "whatever lets you sleep at night".

She isn't sleeping, Grace. She's not okay with any of it. She is the most heartbroken woman in the world. She is plagued and riddled. She wishes she could cry more and care less.

And yet, like a woman, she does the hard thing and lets him be celebrated as a hero. She goes to prison while statues are being erected.

Neil unintentionally breaking hearts will never stop being funny. They’re trying their best, and he forgets their name 12 seconds later because Andrew furrows his brow slightly and Neil’s entire focus snaps back to the mothership

shane hollander is a jock, a dude, a 200 pounds man, a captain, he's been giving interviews and speeches before he could even walk, he plays in front of thousands and thousands of people and loud af crowds, he's a performer, he's constantly in front of cameras, he's been under scrutiny his whole life, he's an athlete, he breathes-eats-sleeps-shits sport, he swears, he's masculine, his hockey gear is probably putrid, he's a certified mcgymbro™, he only wears athletic stuff, he models, he does commercials, his main personality trait is hockey, he's kissed and hugged by his sweaty teammates in the locker room, he's ripped, he's an asshole, he's sarcastic, he's a bitch, he uses "fuck" every three words, he hires a stylish and a designer because his taste is bro. and he is all that while being neurodivergent too. and a bottom.

sometimes you rewatch Sense8 for the plot, sometimes you rewatch Sense8 for the character bonding, sometimes you rewatch Sense8 to watch queer characters not die and actually have a very happy ending, sometimes you rewatch Sense8 for the healthy, mature, and supportive romantic and platonic relationships portrayed in the show, sometimes you rewatch Sense8 for the action sequences, sometimes you rewatch Sense8 for the music and party moments that alter your brain chemistry, sometimes you rewatch Sense8 for the fucking orgies and the beautifully done sex scenes, sometimes you rewatch Sense8 just for the fucking awesome cluster transition shots— every time they’re walking around and suddenly all other 7 of ‘em pop outta nowhere seamlessly or that fucking shot of Wolfgang walking down the alleyway and he’s visiting all his other selves and they turn up to follow behind him as they all line up into one and then in the restaurant with lila- the shot of them all rising behind him—

there are so many fucking reasons to rewatch this show.

people will say “they’re only friends” and then show me two people who would crawl through broken glass to hear the other laugh once. two people who have memorized each other’s coffee orders, fears, childhood stories, and emergency contacts. two people who would haunt each other’s houses as ghosts. be serious.

[scribeherself]

Just an FYI—the original intention of this post was to challenge the way people say only friends, as though friendship is somehow lesser than other forms of love. As if being deeply known, cherished, and chosen by another person could ever be a small thing. Normalize profound platonic love. Some of the most fulfilling, transformative, and enduring relationships we will ever have are friendships. 🫶🏼
