Me, while watching a critically acclaimed film that was well received by audiences: why did no one tell me this film was so good

imagine being able to listen to carry on my wayward son, objectively a fucking banger of a song, without inflicting psychic damage on yourself

I really really really hope that the Percy Jackson tv show takes place in 2005 and not 2022. The vibes in the book are so wholesome and nostalgic to me, I really don't want the kids to be walking around talking about tiktok.

if you want me to consume a new media you MUST catch me at the exact moment when the stars are aligned and the air pressure is equal to the current degree of the sun’s peak against the horizon and all the cosmic energies are perfectly unified (aka my old interest is fading out) or i will nod and say “im adding that to my list!” Knowing theres no chance i will check it out

[ispyspookymansion]

“unless its a book!” “unless you tell me it has gay people in it!” “this but only for live action shows” “theres a good chance i’ll get to it eventually” no wrong this post is not for you this post is ONLY for bitches who could have a treasured friend recommend them something that sounds grown in a lab to be your personal catnip and, with no choice in the matter, immediately know it will never be the right time to watch/read/listen to it

Percy Jackson Headcanon

At some point Nico becomes a minor god.  Because his shtick was already “randomly show up, be overwhelmingly powerful, know more than everyone else but only occasionally share that information, disappear again” this changes virtually nothing about his behavior and he never bothers to tell anyone (maybe Hazel and/or Will.  Maybe).

It’s only years later when he’s bailing out some random demigod, gets mildly stabbed, and bleeds gold instead of red that the truth comes out.

if i don’t periodically remind myself that there are a LOT of other ppl in their 20s who currently do nothing at all but lie in bed and type on various different screens all day then i start having heart palpitations

my prof in the margins: excellent analysis!

when i was in high school i used to write my papers thinking wow i’m just bullshitting all of this. then like a week before my senior year ended after all the grades were set, i was talking to my english teacher and told him you know i just bullshitted every paper i wrote. he told me that while i may have thought i was just pulling it all out of my ass, i genuinely knew what i was talking about and made well-supported analyses. i only thought i was bullshitting because it didn’t take much effort and it all seemed obvious to me. if you do well on your essays even though you think you’re just making it up as you go, chances are you’re not pulling it out of your ass. you’re just a genuinely talented analyst, even if the analysis that you’re making comes from a subconscious understanding of the material rather than a conscious effort to study it. give yourself some credit.

in addition to the fact that people just have different natural rhythms, a big reason why we can’t seem to go to bed as early as we “should” is that nighttime is, for many of us, our safest and most fulfilling time of day. we don’t have to work, we won’t be contacted by bosses or insurance companies or collection agencies or other suffocating life business… we’re likely only to be contacted by our friends, or by no one at all. night time is release; it’s ours. we can rest or recreate. we can do things we actually want to do. who would choose to cut that short?? just to usher in the next morning when our lives are not our own again? nighttime is precious and nothing could be more normal than the desire to embrace this

So, y’all remember that post that said animals in urban areas slowly became nocturnal to avoid encounters with humans? Apparently that includes humans.

so i was musing about Percy and Annabeth in Art History and i can totally see a lot of “oh-my-gods-we-almost-just-died-you’re-alive-i-love-you” kisses happening in between fighting off monsters and generally trying to survive in Tartarus. 

then i doodled a thumbnail.
