Endothermic Archer

Not an archer, just like the pun

I love that opera sits in this limbo where it's extremely well-known but not really beyond a surface level recognition, so you get commercials for makeup or whatever to the tune of the I Hate Women So Much It's Unreal aria

[forthegothicheroine]

#in the first bridgerton book daphne describes her crush feelings as if her heart is playing the queen of the night aria from the magic flute#which i can totally see if you have never found out what the words mean. very high and fluttery.#but the lyrics are along the lines of THE VENGEANCE OF HELL BOILS IN MY HEART. IF YOU DON'T MURDER THAT MAN I WILL DISOWN YOU.#and i laughed so hard i had to put the book down

@lymeandcoconut

#lmaooooo #my fave is that episode of white collar where neil is doing a theft #and the music they play over it is leporello's 'here's the list of all the hundreds of women my boss has fucked' aria from don giovanni #it's supposed to just sound grand and sophisticated but the guy is singing about how DG fucks tall women short women #fat women skinny women princesses and peasants he fucks them all! #and here's the numbers broken down by nationality! #he's fucked over 1000 women in spain you know!

#oh and he's singing all this to a former conquest who tracked DG down because he promised to marry her then ditched her #anyway it's a lot

ok i can't even lie part of the reason i'm so insane about docksduo as a weird intertwined unit is bc Minecraft YouTuber Jordan Maron has given exactly ONE (1) quality voice acting performance in his life. despite being in video games despite guest starring on disney XD despite having his own pizza hut pizza despite reading commercials. he has done ONE good job of Doing A Voice ever ever ever. and that is while reading andor's lines. of course i'm crazy they are the only things that give the other a real voice.*

*in the weird metatextual narrative symbolism way common in mcrp and popularized in no small part by mianite s2 and things like from way up high and our shared insanity

[voidandradiance]

i can't fucking STAND him (<- said with nauseating glee). he does this fucking. this little fucking voice for a lot of the early season that is viscerally fucking accurate to someone trying desperately to sound gentle and soft-spoken and minimally offputting while trying not to lose their shit, and it makes me want to rip all my skin off. i don't mean the quiet desperate hope that he manages to hit at the lighthouse and taint wall, although that also makes me want to eat styrofoam. i mean the tone he uses for a lot of andor's public dialogue, the not-quite even keel of it all. really fucking good how and why did he do that.

and then he does that little sing-song of rage before andor does actually raise his voice for one(1) sentence during ep 12, and. ough. i want to fucking waterboard him about it. it's that and then it's RIGHT back to the quiet misery that takes a hard left into reverent awe as soon as jordan mentions ianite again.

don't get me STARTED on sonja and jordan tag-teaming the docks speech. don't get me STARTED on how much louder they read those lines, how jordan almost growls some of them, how sonja is more openly shouting them. oh it makes me sick

[voidandradiance]

also ianitee sonja you will never die. between your behavior here and in the witch basement and in the inertia you will NEVER die

Have I mentioned this was inspired by an animal crossing quote

[fishpondfish]

it is impossible to watch a movie. every night i think i want to watch a movie. no movie gets watched. because it's not possible

[mousidy]

and yet they keep making movies with the hopes that one day humanity will discover a way to watch them. it's so inspiring

[skarchomp]

the fantasy lesbian adventurer is immune to the seductive evil sorceress's feminine wiles because she's butch4butch

[maxknightley]

this is exactly why any evil sorceress worth her salt keeps a towering knightgirl in gleaming black armor "on retainer"

[maxknightley]

well it's one of two reasons anyway

They say that sudden, intense cravings for very specific foods are usually a sign of a vitamin deficiency. If so, that I'm presently making myself french toast, scrambled eggs, and a bacon and cheese sandwich at 11:45 PM must mean the vitamin I'm missing is grease.

I cross-posted this to Bluesky and got followed by a bunch of folks with blog headers clarifying which exact flavour of Christianity they adhere to because they thought I was making a hashtag-relatable post about cheating on your diet. Now we get find out how many of them are also comfortable with posts about werewolf cock.

‘Nuclear Family Month’ is so funny as a concept. I have never seen a nuclear family worth celebrating.

[dirac-equation]

?????? :(

[la-cosmonauta-extraterrestre]

All nuclear families on the periodic table are worth celebrating.

daily affirmations:

I am not a jinx to the team I am rooting for

I am allowed to watch a game because my viewership will not alter the outcome of the game

I am but a drop in the bucket and the world is not affected by me watching a game

The score did not change because you looked at it funny

[chrisweedpiano]

one of my favorite posts of all time

[crescairis]

i get that people are more comfortable with defined rules and structure but i also think queer people lost when they started resorting to dictionary definitions for what labels mean

[crescairis]

the queer umbrella is meant to deviate from the norm of rigid boxes and definitions and to decide that lesbian means Only this, bi means Only this, etc, is directly contradicting what queer means. each and every label is going to have a unique meaning to the person using it and that is how it's supposed to be. if you're not comfortable with that...sorry?

[crescairis]

basically if someone tries to tell you you're using a label wrong:

no you're not

eat them

[crescairis]

[image description: a set of tumblr tags from @/elinaline, reading: "#there is a way to use a label wrong actually; #its when you force it on someone else". end image description.]

this is the only answer i'll accept thank u everyone for your participation <3

'this property says it has nine acres but those neighbours look pretty clo-'

oh.

ohhhhhhhhh no

[kiwisoap]

When i saw this I immediately suspected it was in Louisiana so I did a reverse image search to confirm and, yep!

The reason its so long and skinny is because Louisiana has (had? not sure if they're still in place) Forced Heirship laws. which means that you are required to leave a portion of your estate to qualifying heirs, regardless of whether you or they want it, and also regardless of what your will says. This is then combined with the fact that property in many parts of Louisiana was originally divvied up into parcels by Spanish land grants, which looked like this:

Which over many generations has led to large properties being slowly divided into thinner and thinner strips of acreage in order to satisfy the forced heirship law. Which is why they now have strips of property that are like 50 feet wide and 2 miles long

Why do horror game protagonists always buy the worst flashlights? A flashlight that can kill a Dracula is like 20 bucks. Why are you grabbing grandma's old flashlight with a dying bulb from 1992 and going into the woods at night?

[sinsinewave]

i've seen exactly one game actually have an explanation, that being INFRA, where iirc everyone acknowledges the flashlight is shit, and the company the protag works for ordered new ones but they didn't arrive yet at the time the game starts out

[asheep-asleep]

Adding "not buying shit my boss should have got me months ago" to the lists of valid reasons to go into a wicked forest with a shitty flash light.
