I just realized that not only Loki had a really tragic life throughout the mcu, but in universe, there is nobody who knows his story.

Nobody will ever know he was betrayed and lied to, nobody will ever know he was tortured and controlled, nobody will ever know he faced his former handler and was killed by him.

Nobody will ever know how deeply he cared about people, how much he disliked fighting, how horrible were things Thanos put him through, how much he struggled with internalized racism and self-hatred.

Nobody will know that he loved astronomy and was good at technology. That he was brave and caring. That he never enjoyed hurting people.

That he was fighting Thanos from the start. That he saved his brother, and his friends, and his girlfriend. That he was trying his best, even if not always successfully.

People will always remember him as a power-hungry maniac who attacked NYC, "faked" his death and then had a sudden heart change and saved Asgard. But that's it. A crazy jealous little brother. A selfish brat. Never a real person who played an important role in delaying Infinity War and saving the world.

Loki never received a funeral. There wasn't a single person who truly knew who he was and what he actually did. And now he's dead, and the world couldn't care less. Most of them don't even know how he died and his body will never be found. And he, most likely, will be completely forgotten sooner or later.

But, maybe, it was for the better: he was stolen, abused, tortured, used when he was alive but he's free now. He loved astronomy and now he is somewhere in space among the stars, where nobody will ever find him, and there is no Odin, no Thanos, no Grandmaster. And when the world will forget about him completely, he will be free from the society that pushed him into falling.

The world never truly knew Loki or gave him any justice, but it doesn't matter anymore.

And all I can think about is....

...Goodbye, Lucy Gray, we hardly knew you.

mold pisses me off so much

oh you have to eat your produce the moment it leaves the store or the fuckin Hungering Dust will get it. and. poison your food

[tobiasdrake]

I ran into this post years ago and to be honest, it has completely reoriented the way I engage with food.

Like. I’ve always sorta understood that things grow moldy or stale or sour or such if left out, but I never really internalized it in a meaningful way.

But now I’m just like.

Yeah. The hungering dust. There exists omnivorous dust in the air that will eat my food if I don’t.

Those bagels have been sitting there for a week. Are we going to eat them soon or are we leaving them for the hungering dust?

Pizza’s been sitting out on the counter for an hour. Everyone’s enjoying the pizza, but if we don’t want “everyone” to include the hungering dust then we should probably put it away soon.

That’s just. That’s how food works to me now. There exists an invisible predator in the air that hungers for your yummies, and it will not hesitate to eat your food if you don’t make the effort to protect and preserve it. And eat what can’t be preserved before the dust can.

Life-changing.

food doesn’t actually “go bad”, it just gets eaten by something else first

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

Why is it that every time I google something like "Are olives poisonous to cats" the top results are always like "Fun fact: Cats are carnivores! This means that they eat meat. There is no reason to include olives in a cat's diet. You should feed your cat cat food, which is dry or wet food especially designed for cats. You can purchase this at a store." like is there a single person alive on the planet who's googled "Are blueberry muffins safe for cats" because they're planning on switching their cat to a muffin-only diet??? No, I'm asking because the little bastard somehow popped open the packet while I was putting away the groceries and dragged one under the couch before I could react and now I need to know if I should call the after-hours vet. "Cats should not eat spaghetti." NO SHIT, SHERLOCK!!!! "Try to keep human food away from cats." i live in a studio apartment with a completely silent and permanently hungry apex predator who has the intelligence of a toddler and the desperate Machiavellian cunning of a creature who spent his formative months on the streets. He can already open doors and he is this 👌 close to learning how to open the microwave. He is stronger than me and covered in knives. So im gonna do my best but for the moment i just need you to tell me whether this yoghurt is going to kill my son y/n

I've been using the pet poison hotline's poison list cause it has a search function. It also tells you whether something is mildly, moderately, or severely toxic which can be very handy! It doesn't contain like everything but it might be a good place to start, it also includes plants for fellow houseplant lovers <3

lord of the rings really was lightning in a bottle. it shouldn’t have worked but by god it did. peter jackson, who had no filmmaking education and was mostly known for making low budget splatter movies, had no business going out and changing the movie industry like that but he did. return of the king showed up at the oscars and became one of the most awarded movies of all time. to this day it holds the record for the highest clean sweep. hollywood will keep trying to recreate that magic with bigger budgets and high profile actors and they will keep failing. i look at the state of these blockbusters where everything is smoothed over by soulless cgi and actors are acting opposite tennis balls and they will never hold a candle to the pure heart and soul and craft of the lord of the rings. every single person involved in that project loved being part of it and it fucking shows. i’m so thankful the stars aligned the way they did for these movies to happen like that.

[that-dumbass-on-a-horse]

Okay. okay i KNOW they talk about it all the time but i wasn't expecting then to actually put him in a bag and beat the shit outta song yan. This is great. This is my very favorite thing to happen in POJ why isnt there a thousand gifs of this

one thing i enjoy about chasing jade that i didn't fully realize from the webnovel is how objectively, it's silly that changyu always insists on protecting xie zheng (because he's a war hero and general, is as absurdly strong as she is, is incredibly skilled in martial arts, and is prone to violence/is always 10 seconds away from that delicious phrase c-webnovels use, "a murderous/killing aura" asdfghjkl--like it's silly in terms of dramatic irony because we know he's not really a weak scholar refugee, not because changyu's not up to the task; she very much *is* able to protect him)--and yet it's her determination to protect him and take care of him that's framed as the root of his attraction and devotion to her. and so he does need her protection, not physically, but like spiritually/psychically/emotionally. her protection offers him an essential nourishment he's lacked since his parents' unfair and fucked up deaths and which he's never expected of anyone since--and which she offers without his asking.

i also really like that for all xie zheng's violent inclinations, he's basically a decent person, like changyu pointed out to song yan. he's good with changning; he makes sure the comic relief thugs don't steal the deed of her house; he takes note of the ways people demean and cheat her and prepares in advance to argue against them; he's rich and basically clueless about the daily lives of the vast majority of people, but he doesn't treat her with contempt when he realizes she's not fully literate; he's patient, shows thankfulness, is helpful around the house, and willingly fits into changyu's life.
