discuss

[grownupchangeling]

image description: an alignment chart of characters from “Sex Education”. the horizontal axis has the categories “bold of you to”, “How dare you”, and “please” from left to right. the vertical axis has the categories “assume I have dignity”. “assume I’m straight”, and “believe ive reached my peak of dumbass” from top to bottom. from left to right starting in the top left corner and starting at the left of each subsequent row, the characters aligned are Ola, Jean, Otis, Maeve, Eric, Adam, Amy, Mr. Groff, and Jackson. end description.

what’s there to discuss? OP is right.

alright, Eric and Adam are perfectly aligned, Maeve…eh. maybe she’s not straight but maybe on principle heteronormativity pisses her off. Amy and Jackson might actually say their alignments in conversation casually. Mr. Groff, on the other hand, might garble his words when he’s angry and end up barking out his alignment.

Otis is perfect in “please assume I have dignity” but I also feel like he has feelings about people assuming he’s straight. regardless of whether he’s ace, he’s the child of a progressive sex therapist and you can bet heteronormativity pisses him off on principle.

all of the faces that OP chose to use for the alignment chart perfectly match the alignments

Linguistic Family Tree. Brilliant.

[sweetiepie08]

Trying to find the perfect name for a character, but you only have a vague idea of what you want, like “he feels like a 2-syllable kind of guy” or “It need a hard consonant at the end.”   

[ofvisitorsthefairest]

May I recommend nameberry.com? I’ve sung its praises before, but you can search for specific lists of like “three syllable girls names” or “names ending in a.” You can also input names with a similar vibe to what you want and it’ll give you suggestions.

[bifrostiron]

I have been looking for this site since I first started plotting out my novel, god bless you

[tacticaltaxonomist]

I also like behindthename.com there you can filter too!

[medievalthymes]

personal playlists i’ve made that might fit your niche

a country playlist for a friend who is playing rdr2 but doesn’t actually like country

soft pop bops

bad 70s/80s music that i love a lot

early 2000′s nostalgia playlist for kids that were born 1995-1999 and dont fit with millennials or gen z

classical bops that didn’t need to go that hard

[medievalthymes]

more!

songs about witches, fortune tellers and strange things

songs that remind me of old gods waking from a long slumber

southern gothic

an oldies playlist with voices as sweet as honey

[tortoistor]

movie tropes that will never get old to me:

a thing happens + two people exchanging money in the back

fourth wall breaking

“give up all your weapons” and that one guy that spends the entire evening taking his weights worth out his pockets

*a terribly loud crash* meowing/ car sirens heard offscreen

alternatively: a terribly loud crash and one of the characters going “oops” in the most casual voice

“fuck you” “well if you insist”

[nerdgasrnz]

#alternatively alternatively: *terribly loud crash w/ sirens and cat screeching*#person: *off camera* ‘I’M OKAY’ (via @zenlida)

[count-di-luna]

character being all “you expect me to do X?” Gilligan Cut to character doing X

[susiephone]

the squad gets captured and interrogated separately, and they’re all telling equally terrible, completely contradictory lies

people completely missing the completely unsubtle, very visible dangerous thing in the room with them

alternatively, people absolutely seeing the completely unsubtle, very visible dangerous thing in the room with them and just not giving a shit

bonus points if it’s a beleaguered minimum wage employee who just goes about their business like “yep same shit as always”

someone pretending they don’t know another character is eavesdropping, only to casually reveal at the end of the scene that they know (*leaving* “tell tom that he can come out now” *tom drops from the ceiling in spy gear, irritated*)

choosing to deal with the villain by just leaving them alone in a room with another character

the “hands go down” trope

example: “any questions?” *everyone’s hands go up* “…that AREN’T sarcastic?” *everyone’s hands go down*

[neonprotagonist]

how could all y'all forget “ACT NATURAL!”

[beradan]

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

These are all great but let’s not forget two characters giving extremely biased flashbacks to the same event that each paint the other as an incompetent loon

[stunt-muppet]

i would like to respectfully add: scenes where a character walks into a room, sees something scary, and turns around and walks out with no reaction or change of expression

[roachpatrol]

a high-stakes zany action scene forced to come to a complete halt while some characters take a very, very long elevator ride

Game of Thrones  (April 17, 2011–May 19, 2019)

A long time ago, she remembered her father saying that when the cold winds blow the lone wolf dies but the pack survives.

i don’t want to look “hot” i want to look alluring, haunting, bewitching. i want to look like the kind of person hozier would write a song about.

[robinsghost]
