[David Bowie in the 70s about to write one of the greatest albums of all time]: hey can I tell you guys about my new doomed rockstar OC he's from space and he came to save the world from an apocolypse. he can play guitar better than anyone on earth and he has a huge cock and an amazing ass. He's not me btw.

when you’re a gay lion and you accidentally tried to introduce your lesbian lioness friend to one of her own exes at a gay bar and she goes into the bathroom and bitches you out for not being able to tell her endlessly rotating cast of girlfriends apart which isn’t really fair because first of all they all keep dyeing their hair different colors and second of all she keeps getting back together with different ones at different times and meanwhile you’ve been “single” for like 8 months but are spending a lot of time with one specific guy who works at your old co-op and were going to excitedly tell her about it tonight but now you’ve ruined the whole subject of dating by trying to introduce her to her own ex at a gay bar (which is a watering hole. because you’re lions.)

Dahling you simply must read this book! It’s all about this devious little caterpillar who simply gorges himself on all manner of divine things

Character duo where one *remembers I don’t like fitting characters into trope boxes* is a completely fleshed out and realised person *remembers treating characters as real people and not story devices written with intent is bad* who is written by the author and *remembers death of the author* uh. And *fumbles and drops my pile of queue cards* ah fuck wait no *the menacing horse* what was that.

love the end of the two towers where gandalf looks into the sunset talking bout "yea frodo had to go it alone it was his destiny and there is no changing it he will be ok 😌✨" and aragorn is like "sam went with him btw" and gandalf is like "oh fuck thank god"

"L was just lying when he called Light his friend" true but lowkey boring

"for the first time in his life, L has found a worthy opponent. a rival. a peer. and despite himself, despite thinking himself separate from humanity and incapable of feeling [this way], he feels. he feels something that could kill him. but he who strikes first wins. so turn this weakness into a weapon. use it before your opponent gets the chance to. what else is there except to use your vulnerability to your own advantage before it gets exploited ? so say it, on your terms, for your own gain, before he finds out and it takes you down. it's the only thing to do with something so useless. a monster such as yourself is incapable of friendship anyway." bold. nuanced. level 100000 mindgames

happy Lunar New Year!
