No matter what anyone says, Rosetta is true classy lady! 😤
Even though a cute guy got this sweet Southern Belle weak in the knees, she’ll never let him know, keeping her hand steady and fixed in the same position
This guy has no idea 🤣
I do know one thing… 🙏🔥🍾
For everyone complaining that the romance in Belle was a let down, let me clarify:
THAT WASNT THE POINT!
The main plot of Belle was not falling in love, it focused on grief, trauma, and healing❤️🩹! And how you can find that in some of the unlikeliest places like the Internet even with its constant toxicity and multiple personas. You can love without falling in love, you can hug without being amorous, and you can connect without being romantic!
If you are looking for a love story with the Beauty and the Beast trope, I’m sorry! Belle is clearly not for you! So stop hating on the movie, saying you’d change or do it this way if you missed the entire plot! Life isn’t about romance, but love! Love of your self, family, friends, neighbors, community, the world, heck even school! This movie explores all the ranges of love except literally the romantic one on PURPOSE!
NORMALIZE ROMANCE AS A SIDE PLOT!!!!!!
(but high key ruka and kamishin were OTP, so cute & adorable 🥰 ❤️)
that is the face of a man worried he will be next
Good news, he was not next! In fact, she accepted him as her mate, he learned the crane mating dance and now every year, he artificially inseminates her with crane semen to expand the very endangered crane population. True story.
Sorry, he WHAT? Imagine being this man's boss and having to sit him down like. Listen. Brian. We need you to fuck the bird. You have to act like you're excited about it.
crane husband.....
this is the diametric opposite of all those awful swan wife stories and i love it.
(WalWaPo makes you jump through like three separate hoops before you can read the article, so I will share some of the highlights:
Walnut was born in a species-recovery breeding program in the 1980′s. The program had crane chicks hand-raised by human volunteers, and at that time they did not fully understand the measures necessary make sure that the chicks do not imprint on humans and retain their identity as cranes.
As a result, her keepers believe, Walnut does not recognize other cranes as members of her own species.
It has not been proven that Walnut killed her previous suitors; however, there is a persistent rumor in the white-naped-crane-conservation community that she did.
Because this species is highly endangered, and the gene pool of the captive population is small, it’s pretty important for the survival of her species that Walnut A) mate, and B) not kill a bunch of other cranes.
The actual name of the keeper is Chris Crowe.
They both arrived at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute in 2004.
Walnut immediately began paying special attention to Chris--and ignoring the eligible male crane in a nearby enclosure.
Walnut initiated their courtship, performing the opening moves of a mating dance.
Chris realized that if he reciprocated the mating dance, it might be possible to artificially inseminate Walnut with her participation and consent. (The process normally involves restraining the bird.)
It worked!
Chris and Walnut have had five children, who were raised by other crane couples at the facility--sometimes the biological dad and his mate--both because it’s unclear whether Walnut would accept the chicks as her own, and because Chris is not equipped to be a Crane Dad.
However, the Institute provides her with artificial eggs to sit on, and Chris takes his turn looking after them. (This would not work with real eggs because he can’t sit on them properly, but Walnut seems to feel that he is on the job if he just stands over them.)
Chris accepts that he is pretty much married to this bird. White-naped cranes live to be about 60, and they mate for life, so he knows he can’t retire while Walnut is alive. (At the time of the article, Walnut was 36, and Chris 42.)
Legit cannot pick the funniest part of this
she has not been PROVEN to have killed her exes, but there is a PERSISTENT RUMOR (really officers she's simply DEVASTATED, she sobs, wearing a new feather boa unfortunately resembling her most recent deceased husband)
His name is Chris CROWE. (Mrs. Walnut Crane-Crowe?)
the mental images of a whole human man learning and performing the crane mating dance, and "sitting" on artificial eggs so she thinks he's performing his duties as a husband and father (and apparently OBJECTS if he does not?)
"chris, buddy, you gotta marry the possibly-murderous crane lady for the GOOD OF THE SPECIES." (alternately: "chris, my man! good news! we found you a very interested lady! She's 36, she's very spirited and independent, she holds a very important and rare status in her society! ...Is there a downside? WELL...")
chris sits any potential human partners down, like "my love, you must understand before we wed,,, i am already... Attached" (camera drifts wistfully to the above photo) "Lady Walnut and I have an,, Understanding... the relationship is open, but very committed"
just had to explain this post to my father bc he thought my stifled laughter was a signal of illness.
well done, everyone, good game. hit the showers.
Not only is he 'married' to walnut, this has apparently happened SEVERAL times, so he has MULTIPLE crane wives, none of which know about any of his other crane wives. This man is, for some unknown reason, irresistible to cranes

IT’S ALWAYS TEA TIME!
Just finished watching Interview With The Vampire for the first time and:
if i had a nickel for every time a man wanted to be with Louis forever, i’d have 3 nickels
which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it happened 3 times
What if it bites me and it dies?
that means you’re poisonous. jesus christ, nate, learn to read.
What if it bites itself and I die?
It’s voodoo.
What if it bites me and someone else dies?
That’s correlation, not causation.
what if we bite each other and neither of us die
that’s kinky
oh my god
this is still my favorite text post collaboration ever
I haven’t seen this post in like 3 years
IT’S BACK IT’S STILL ACTIVE
Dude I remember this post back when I didn’t even have Tumblr. This is great.
This legendary post… on MY dash? Dang.
I FOUND IT
THIS WAS ON TUMBLR??? OH MY GOD???
IT STILL EXISTS
THIS IS STILL FUCKING HERE?! I THOUGHT IT WAS A MYTH
date of origin: October 31st, 2013
It’s here! Oh my god. I was just scrolling and it was right there! Legendary.
Watching Parent Trap with my 6 year old cousin like:
“I can’t believe they let a 11 year old drink wine!”
“I can’t believe they let British people use the American measuring system.”
Glad to see we both love commenting on movies.
i know we have said this 1 million times before but how does a character as psychologically complex as dean winchester exist on a cw show…how does a character like that exist anywhere besides a dostoevsky novel. his delicacy literally makes me feel like i’m shattering into pieces
#he was an accident #a freak of nature #i’ll give some credit to kripke but most of the credit should go to jensen #he’s the one who fell in love with dean and wanted to give him the world - @laurelwinchester
That’s not even a lie, Kripke gave an interview where he specifically said it was what Jensen Ackles brought out in his potrayal of Dean Winchester that started to inspire their writing of the character. He specially mentioned how he brought to life the “screwed to hell psyche” that would inform that kind of character. It was something they didn’t expect at all. This isn’t the original one, which was done about mid-way through Season 1, but he saying something similar here in this 2008 interview.(Shame the current writers decided to make sure they erased that and do their damnedest to bring Dean back the stereotype he never really ended up being in the first place)
“For Dean, we were looking for Han Solo. We were looking for devil-may-care, charismatic, a little rough around the edges, a little edgy, says things that are not always the kindest thing, as long as they’re funny. And that was really what we started out with……
….For Jensen, the level of emotion and totally flawed, screwed-to-hell psyche that he brings to Dean, we really are enamored with. This idea that on the surface here’s this Han Solo devil-may-care persona, but when you really scratch beneath the surface, you see that anyone who has that persona has it because they are just so messed up, and that you would have to be so screwed up and damaged to be the person who always jumps first off a cliff.
So, he really brought Dean to life in a really three-dimensional way…
What I love is the way Jensen brought so much truth and importance to the role, I mean it’s in the writing that Dean has been through hell since childhood, but with Jensen he made sure all of that was put under the microscope. Everything that Dean goes through matters, becomes important, because Jensen makes it so through his acting, it’s in Dean’s body language, in this facial expressions, as well as the way he expresses himself. Nothing is throw away, nothing is brushed off, instead everything Dean does via Jensen is laced with meaning, and it’s been like that right from the start.
In the pilot episode, when Sam tells Dean he can go hunting alone, and Dean says back “yeah well, I don’t want to” that right there is when Dean is immediately more than just the cocky older brother. It’s a throw away line, and yet it’s quoted in posts all across tumblr and is a defining Dean moment thanks to Jensen’s delivery. It contains all these layers that were yet to be pulled back, it forces you to ask questions and want to know him more, what did he mean by that? What’s beneath the surface?
It’s also why often the show was so frustrating, because all of this extra meaning was not always picked up by the writers, sp we were often left hanging, wanting more.
For all his good looks and leading man qualities, Jensen didn’t just turn up and look pretty, instead he plays/played Dean as a character actor would, focusing heavily on the character inside and out, his mentality, his likes, dislikes, dress sense, everything and made him real.
Dean Winchester ought to be a joy to write, if you are a capable writer, and in the early days you had the likes of Ben Edlund and Raelle Tucker just relishing the opportunity to explore the character, it’s a shame the current set of writers don’t see it that way at all.
#there’s really just something About dean that elevates him #he’s beyond all other characters on spn and most on other shows too and like. it makes no sense and it’s not intuitive but it Is #and that’s why a show like spn is treating him so badly. they don’t know what the hell to do with a character like that #the reason the writers hate him is that they dont understand him. and probably bc theyre all classist #same goes for fandom #and theyre doing their hardest to stomp out that Spark but they can’t really. they can try but they can’t erase the seasons #that cemented him. made him. that made him so important to me and so many people #the dean they created semi by accident and by jensen’s influence can’t be taken from us no matter how badly they’re writing now #because we know him. because he’s touched us #and yes this is turning sappy but i mean it #this whole thing is depressing as hell but the comfort is that as the audience we can do what we like with what we’ve been given #and what we’ve been Given is one of the most wonderful heart-wrenching and evocative characters IMHO of all time #for all that he was intended to be kind of the opposite of that #it’s poetic really #i don’t think they could have created dean winchester if they had tried to #text #meta: dean #(sort of. as usual) - @tenderdean
excellent tags!
So much all of this. Even the “been through hell since childhood”, a lot of what they ended up writing in those early seasons I think was inspired by Jensen’s performance first. I don’t think they’d actually given that much thought to the details besides John Winchester was a kind of abusive hardass. I think a lot of the Dean the caretaker they got from Jensen’s performance itself, even in the pilot you get a sense of it, at least I did, from the scene on the bridge. he’s angry, he pushes Sam against the bridge, but then he’s very quiet and almost kind of sad when he talks and immediately I was hit with the idea that Dean is used to taking care of Sam and he understands and is sad that Sam didn’t know their mother, even though he is angry to hear her seemingly dismissed.
The way Jensen would play some of those scenes about being Dad’s golden boy(as Sam called him I think in Bugs) or his response to Sam’s comment in uh…the one with Max, was it Nightmare?…Max’s father is abusive and at the end Sam says maybe there dad wasn’t so bad afterall, a little more tequila and a little less hunting they might have had Jack’s childhood and Dean gives this meaningful pause before he says “All things considered” and these things really gave the idea that it actually wasn’t a GOOD thing to be Dad’s “right hand man” so to speak and that maybe there were things that happened that Sam didn’t know about, because Dean protected him from them. That was just season one of course as things got more fleshed out there was even more of that.
I don’t know if Jensen was actually thinking specifically of what may have happened but he obviously instinctively knew that these are the sort of experiences that made Dean, Dean. Jensen knew how to give a lot of weight to what was NOT written and to fill silences with meaning.
#people can say whatever they want#but this show without Jensen’s Dean#would have never worked#Jensen is the one who brought depth and complexity to the character

iZombie rant S1xE9:
How did she not take the shot?!?!?
Sniper brains and his mantra was literally “One is less than Many”, that should’ve fueled her in doing what she had to do, more than any other brain she ate.
Like it’s completely her fault Lowell died. That’s the whole reason we needed to stop Blaine in the first place.
How many more people, alive and undead, are gonna die before she stops this dude?!
If anyone hurts Major (any more than already), I’m going full zombie-mode 😡
“While many people think fanfiction is about inserting sex into texts (like Tolkien’s) where it doesn’t belong, Brancher sees it differently: “I was desperate to read about sex that included great friendship; I was repurposing Tolkien’s text in order to do that. It wasn’t that friendship needed to be sexualized, it was that erotica needed to be … friendship-ized.” Many fanfiction writers write about sex in conjunction with beloved texts and characters not because they think those texts are incomplete, but because they’re looking for stories where sex is profound and meaningful. This is part of what makes fan fiction different from pornography: unlike pornography, fanfic features characters we already care deeply about, and who tend to already have long-standing and complex relationships with each other. It’s a genre of sexual subjectification: the very opposite of objectification. It’s benefits with friendship.”

Your honor! Please direct your attention towards the manga.
As you can see there are small pieces of paper sticking out of every volume.
But no such paper is sticking out of the Batman comic.
The reason? The Batman book doesn’t belong to the library. The photographer put it there to take a picture.
Once again making hasty assumptions, Wright?
First of all, I’d like to direct the court’s attention to this particular spot, in the top right-hand corner.
Notice how the words are blocking the top of the Batman book.
With this in mind, how can you claim that there is “no such paper sticking out of the Batman comic”?!
Say whaaaat?
Well uhm
Look at the size of the paper pieces, they’re all sticking pretty far out.
If there was paper in the batman comic, it would be big enough to stick up over the text.
And while gravity does exist, it probably won’t make the paper do a 90 degree turn and just lean horisontally left at the middle.
Still grasping for straws, Wright?
Hypothetically, if there were a paper there, this picture would not be able to prove its presence. I’ve taken the liberty of drawing a diagram to illustrate my point. We are faced with three possibilities. It is possible that (1) the paper was simply tucked in deeper than the others.
Paper is a soft material, Wright. It’s not unreasonable for it to do a (2) 90 degree turn.
Or perhaps, (3) a paper does not exist there at all.
Either way, you cannot prove your client innocent without sufficient evidence.
Which, of course, is impossible thanks to the obtrusive words.
I’m sorry Edgeworth.
I concede that I can’t disprove theory 1
But the image you submited for theory 2 is contradictory.
Look at the tilt of the other papers. They clearly prove how much the paper would tilt.
And theory 3 is my point! Why would the library’s book not have this piece of paper when the other library books do?
While you still have thory 1, there is another contradiction.
The books are not in alphabetical order, this proves that the batman comic was placed there specifically for the picture!
Ack.
(Perhaps I should’ve left the artistry to the forensic artist…)
Now hold it right there! It doesn’t matter which direction the paper is going because it’s impossible to prove it even exists!
Those theories are all the same! We do not have enough information to prove them. There could be an infinite amount of papers in there for all we know. I simply presented them only so that the court could better understand your baseless conjecture!
… I suppose the order of the books do seem out of the ordinary. However, therein lies not just one possibility. Clearly, those are Japanese graphic novels, also known as “manga”. And the Batman comic book is a graphic novel, too, no?
Seeing as it currently has only graphic novels in the shelf, it is possible that any other novels have simply not yet been restocked. Asserting whether or not this effect was deliberate is useless– there is no way of knowing if the photographer and the captioner are the same person, let alone their involvement in this picture.
Face it Wright, you can’t prove any of these groundless accusations!
Did everyone just ignore the library sticker?

I will reblog this any time i see it on my dash
