Rest in peace to the incredible Anthony Stewart Head (20th February 1954 - 1st June 2026)

RUPERT GILES in BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER (1997-2003)

Your affection for your charge has rendered you incapable of clear and impartial judgement. You have a father’s love for the child, and that is useless to the cause.

[whybeaprincess84]

Rest easy, Giles. Your watch is over. We’ll take it from here.

Shout everyone else taking the vow of silence today

TADC had an incredible finale which was ruined for me by the- legit- six year old kids sitting next to me who wouldn’t shut up the entire time.

feeling like John Mulaney’s dad IYKYK

happy pride month 🌈

it’s so special to me that so much of fan culture is textual analysis for the love of the game. like thank god there are people in my phone who are also thinking about this thing i love so much that they are writing transformative fiction as character studies and setting clips of the show to music with theme-relevant lyrics and writing long text posts analyzing every line of dialogue like!! yay!!!

Happy pride month! Every straight person in the world owes me $50. It’s the law and you’re homophobic if you challenge me on that. 🌈

I guarantee you Shane Hollander called up that stylist before the All-Star game and said “This is an EMERGENCY, I need to look AS HOT AS POSSIBLE”

He was walking in there trying to get his man back after having a panic attack on his dick and ditching him for Jennifer Lawrence, you just know he was like “name your price, I just need a look that will fry someone’s brain”

she was at the club. it didnt change anything. it didnt save anyone. there were just too many forces against it. but it still matters that she was at the club.

in my opinion, the question isn't "Is RPF ethical?" but rather "Are you engaging with RPF ethically?" and even more importantly, "Are you being stupid about it?"

I personally hate any kind morality thought policing. I'm not Catholic or religious and I do not feel guilty over my thoughts. You are not an inherently evil person because you saw two athletes in an interview and went "Hmmm...... what if...." The Feds are not going to come banging down your door because you wrote about one band member dicking down the other and sent it to your friend.

Wondering about other people's lives is very human. Being nosy about their personal lives is very normal. People have been writing fiction about other people's lives since the dawn of time. Some people even manage to write New York Times Bestselling Books that are "historical fiction" or "alternate reality." It does not make you inherently bad to be curious about the details of someone's personal life. That's being human. Being nosy is kind of fun.

The problem, however, comes with the ways in which people engage with it, and involve the real people in this. Harassing an musician's real girlfriend because it doesn't fit into the RPF ship. Showing up at real sporting events holding signs about how certain teammates should kiss. Trying to get actors to sign art of them fucking their coworker. Flooding social media with comments using the celebrity's full name and speculation. There's a line, there's a fourth wall, and there's fandom etiquette.

I hate the question of "Is RPF ethical" because it feels like morality thought policing. Post your fics on locked accounts, censor someone's name when you tweet about it, blow up your groupchat with hundreds of "DID YOU SEE THE WAY THEY LOOKED AT EACH OTHER??" texts. It's not inherently evil to wonder what other people are doing when they're out of the spotlight. Kill the cop in your mind.

But just have some basic decency and do not involve the real people. Don't cross the line without caring how it affects them. This is basic fandom 101 and lately we have been flying too close to the damn sun! Everyone get more normal about RPF so major news outlets and magazines stop posting articles about "Is RPF ethical?" and blowing up our spot!

finally showing my girlfriend Our Flag Means Death!! wanted her to understand 40% of my personality and get to witness an ACTUAL happy ending for a beloved gay couple. COUGH COUGH.

[charlielovesbuffy]

Update- just finished season one. She flipped her shit when they kissed♥️

She is also very conflicted on if she wants to know Lucius’ fate lol

Did I particularly like Good Omens Season 3? No not really especially not narrative wise, that much is evident in my numerous posts about it. Am I gonna harass the staff and actors about it? Fuxk no! THEY DID THEIR BEST FOR THIS SHOW LEAVE THEM THE FUXK ALONE ESPECIALLY THE DIRECTOR WHO NOW APPARENTLY HAS TO LOCK HER SOCIAL MEDIA PROFILES!!! DIDN'T LIKE THE ENDING? IGNORE IT LIKE THE REST OF US AND READ FIX IT FICS BUT LEAVE THE STAFF ALONE

The vibe Ilya was prepared to bring to Tampa

the concept of season 2 ending with a desperate kiss that neither aziraphale nor crowley enjoy because of the circumstances and then there's not even a proper romantic kiss in season 3. chekhov's gun did not fire it didnt even jam they just swept it under the rug and were like well that's enough of that. and when people ask about it they're going to be like a gun? what gun??? maybe you just imagined it. isn't it the idea of the gun that matters anyway? this is a really good ending if you think about it

[420technoblazeit]

im going to say something that nobody's going to like. this is only slightly better than what happened to destiel

[420technoblazeit]

it's just like. it's not even about the lack of a kiss it's about the fact that the season 2 kiss was clearly set up to create an expectation that some time in the future they would kiss each other on screen and it would be magical and fulfilling in the way that the first one wasnt. and you're telling me they didnt even go through with it??? when will it end
