I think s3 of Our Flag Means Death could cure me but alas

rewatching Shape of Water as part of mine and my partner’s October movie marathon and I just cannot put into words how viscerally angry I am that this movie got memeified as the ‘woman fucks a fish’ movie.

When it’s an enchantingly beautiful story about disability and patience and love and connection despite barriers. The acting is masterful and subtle, the set design is thematic and painstakingly detailed, the cinematography, the lighting, the costuming… all of it thread together to make something so sorrowful and magical.

The disabled lead is full of warmth and curiousity and so importantly, she’s allowed to be sexual in a way that’s not overzealous or cheap. It simply is what it is. She is allowed and encouraged in her desire by the narrative and it’s so refreshing.

So yes, she fucks a fish and that’s a deeply important part of it for several reasons but if you overlook everything else then I’m biting you

a canceled tv show is a kind of dead wife

the concept: shane, freckled summer shoulders, wedding ring on a gold chain choker-collar tight to his neck, tiny swim shorts clinging to his thighs, hair slicked back and dripping from the lake, from the heavy heat, and smiling back at ilya over his shoulder. the peek of ilya's hands in bruises on shane's hips, ilya's lips plum-red to the base of shane's neck. ilya, inhaling hard, toes curling in his water shoes, blood throbbing in his stomach and in the nail scratches down his back, heart lurching as he reaches out and pushes shane off the dock, because some things are just too perfect to endure. leaning over to grab shane's arms, kiss shane, as he comes up spluttering. sucking the laugh from his lungs. loving him, loving him, loving him. the sun streaming down. the day stretching on. summer, infinite, in these small moments.

"I wish we met sooner" is such a gentle sentiment. I love you so much I not only want you in my future, but in my past too. I want to have known you when we were small stupid kids, have held hands together as we played outside. I want to have stressed out over exams together, nudging a mug of still steaming hot chocolate against your elbow to get you to focus. I want to have told you I love you before I did anyone else. I want to have held you in my arms when all those sad memories you describe to me were still fresh wounds. I want my past to have been full of you, and full of meaningful memories with you. I want my past lives to have been spent with you, whether as two lovers, or two housecats cuddling by the fireplace on a snowy day, or two flowers that just happened to bloom on the same day, next to each other. I want to have consumed your existence and intertwined it with my own since my birth, never to be separated from you for a moment. I want to have loved you throughout it all, for all time.

"only 90s kids remember-" wrong, if you're poor and/or rural enough, old tech and fashion doesn't just disappear when it stops being trendy. We had dial-up until 2012

It's fun being queer and weird and unconventional until you remember you live in a society

i only like enemies to lovers if it’s gay because i think men who are mean to women don’t deserve to live

hey, I was just at "things got better" island and everyone there is talking about how excited they are to meet you

[switchblade-dragon]

Hey yeah so this post literally kept me alive for like 6 months. Thank you. And OP is so right. Everyone on this island became my best friends. And guess what? Now they can't wait to meet *you* and they talk about you every single day.
