I really wish the overused sentence “You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” was less relevant but here we are

looked up heated rivalry in my local library catalogue bc i was curious and i found:

the book you're thinking of, the 2019 novel by Rachel Reid

a het omegaverse book

a book called Sabotage in the Sky: A Heated Rivalry, a Heated Romance, and High-flying Danger by L. Ron Hubbard

No, I will not be reading 2 and 3, no shade to omegaverse, all the shade to scientology

Shout out to the (many) times I got called an elitist gatekeeper for saying that the only real way to fully understand a work of fiction is to experience it firsthand and that summaries and reviews are not a replacement for that

[the-lincyclopedia]

Me, reading the first 80% of the post: What do you mean, "experience it firsthand"? How am I supposed to join the Hunger Games or go on the Odyssey?

Me, reading the final clause of the post: Oh, you literally meant that people have to read the book/listen to the audiobook in order to fully understand it. And people got mad. Oh dear.

To quote what a friend of mine said after she watched Jerry Maguire (1996) for the first time, having thought she knew what it was about because of its cultural ubiquity: “you miss a lot of a movie when you don’t watch it”

happy Will Turner Wednesday, you spectacular creatures

the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy is presents a romance-style female-focused fantasy adventure, which is rare for blockbuster movies.

[argumate]

 - you are Keira Knightley, the high-spirited and ever so slightly spoiled child of a doting father who happens to be the governor

 - every man in the world is crazy about you, from the dashing naval officer who asks for your hand in marriage to the handsome young blacksmith’s apprentice who you met as a child and feel a strong bond with to the devilish pirate lord who saves your life and flirts with you shamelessly and you make out with him once but it’s for a good cause

 - you have two weddings, one where you femme it up and then it turns all emo when it rains on your wedding day and the groom is dragged off in chains by another guy who secretly has the hots for you and then you have a second wedding where you dress as a man because you’re the pirate king now and you exchange custom vows and witty banter during a sword fight with zombies

 - you are Keira Knightley

[empanadazul]

- all three of your potential love interests end up on the same ship at one point they have a lot of tension between them but they don’t fight because you told them not to

- a random pirate you knew for half an hour names you his heir and now you command one of the biggest and most important fleets in the sea

- not only that but you became the Queen of all pirates who now obey you and are at your command. You use your powers to destroy the fleet of the East India Company

- there’s a kraken

Oh I see, when barbie can become anything she wants its "empowerment" and "inspires confidence".

But when I, John Carpenter's The Thing-

[theboost]

Obsessed with Han and Obi Wans dynamic in anh they are so utterly unimpressed with each other at all times. Han wants nothing less than to jump this old man who keeps dragging him into progressively worse and worse situation like some imperial comedy of errors and Obi Wan, who has fought in wars and seen shit beyond Hans comprehension, is deadpan like “wow you fly fast? On your piece of shit ship? That’s sooo cool”. They had to kill off obi wan because if they hadn’t han and obi wan would’ve killed each other in some spectacularly dramatic fashion and the empire would’ve won

[theboost]

Han never learned Obi Wans name and Obi Wan made the conscious decision to forget Hans

[zoesupreme]

This is it

just learned that coke as in coca-cola as in the famous carbonated soda is canon in star wars and frankly I am upset

[willowcrowned]

[willowcrowned]

[willowcrowned]

@jetiisse pointed out that the existence of Coca Cola in Star Wars implies the existence of real, actual, honest-to-god space cocaine, which means that not only does spice (fake space cocaine) exist, but it is in direct competition with coke (real space cocaine)

[willowcrowned]

of all the countless products to make canon for the advertising deals, they had to choose the one that implied the existence of actual cocaine in Star Wars

[i-draws-dinosaurs]

I feel like everyone need to be aware that there is also diet coke:

and sprite:

and they’re in there cause they serve the drinks at galaxy’s edge so they made them a part of star wars. 

which I think is the funniest thing to happen to star wars canon since they decided darth vader’s lightsaber can change lengths because of special effects inconsistencies in the original movies.

[altospaceangel]

“Disneyland insisting that Star Wars land is canon accidentally made cocaine canon” is perhaps the funniest sentence in existence

achilles in hades:

eeesh 😬 advice? i don't know lad, this is a little above my pay grade. i mean, a hydra? i really just fought humans most of the time. a river once i guess. but that was a fluke. what im saying is you're doing things i could have NEVER done at your age ❤️ which also means i have no idea what advice to give you. what's important is that i love and support you always and believe in you.

odysseus in hades 2:

yeah basically if you stay in the bottom left corner of the map you should be good, there's less environmental damage you can take there but obviously if you're worried abt it, just triggering all the traps at the start of the fight never hurts. your build looks fine, i know everyone hypes up divine dash but tbh i don't think you need it for every run, it just helps to have. once you memorize the attack patterns the fight isnt that bad, pretty easy compared to the late game. here, have 100 dollars

john carpenter’s the thing is a movie about how the hyperindividualism and lack of emotional intimacy between men (specifically men in the united states military) immediately crystallizes into distrust and alienation in crisis. how kurt russel with an absurd callsign name and the goofiest hugest cowboy hat imaginable is the Man, running the whole show and managing the crisis until he fails because when faced with having to truly understand and connect with his last remaining ally he can’t, because all he knows how to do is sit in the snow and die next to him. It is a movie about losing control over your own body in the most horrific way possible. It is a movie about cold war paranoia and fear of bloodborne pathogens. It is a movie about how dread is an incredible force and even so sometimes what you CAN see is worse than what you can imagine. It is a movie about how the scariest thing men can conceive of is something that looks exactly like a man and acts exactly like a man but yet on some fundamental level…isn’t. It is a movie, as one of my eleventh graders pointed out this week, about “playing among us in real life.” but most importantly, john carpenter’s the thing is a movie about a dogy who is my friend and wants to become me :)
