Little tidbits of things I like. Maybe you'll like them, too. Pictures of places I've been, things I've eaten, things I've cooked, things I think are pretty, things I've made, things that stick in my head... Also occasionally pictures of books that should have been looked over before they went to print. My fandoms include but are not limited to: Doctor Who, Torchwood, Supernatural, Sherlock, Merlin, Harry Potter, Inception... There are more, I might add them later. FYI I'm generally into the slash pairings. Also in general Steampunk and Regency and costuming.

I just love how all the disciples start excitedly chirping ‘Hanguang-Jun’ every time Lan Wangji shows up like they’re a bunch of distressed baby birds and he’s their mama come to sweep them under his sleeves

Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. Independence Day (1996)

imagine if rereading the raven cycle didn’t want to make me immediately walk straight into the woods until i find four other people to share a magical, life changing and sort of terrifying event with and fall a little bit in love with each of them

maybe it was good that the world forgot every lesson, every good and bad memory, every triumph and failure, all of it dying with each generation. perhaps this cultural amnesia spared them all. perhaps if they remembered everything, hope would die instead.

no offense to 2020 but what the fuck

life gets so much better when you realize that there are no rules. you don’t have to get your license at 16 if you don’t want to. you don’t have to date anyone in your teen years if you don’t want to. you don’t have to move out in your 20s if you don’t want to. you don’t need to go to any social gathering that you’re not in the mood to go to. and you don’t owe anyone an explanation. sometimes you don’t wanna do something just because you... don’t wanna do it. that’s it. live your life how you wanna live it.

this needs no context because it applies to almost everything

Must scifi be "good"? Is it not enough for the characters to be gay, in space?

Fuck it. Make cis people uncomfortable. Dress however you want. grow out your hair if you want to. Cut it, really badly, in your best friend’s dorm. Use those pronouns. Be unashamedly yourself to the best of your ability. Make them question everything they ever knew about gender without ever giving a shit about their opinions. Put yourself first.

i mean im no expert on tudor fashion and the witcher just loves to blend time periods for inspiration but jaskier’s costumes are clearly extremely tudor influenced and given that on like, a formal occasion Jaskier does seem to wear his doublet laced closed like doublets are supposed to be (tho it looks like it’s maybe fastened rather than laced? idk man im not a costumer i just love historical fashion)

the fact that most of the rest of the time he’s going around with his doublet unlaced to show his cute embroidered undershirt (i looked up if it had a specific name in tudor fashion and like it does it’s called a chemise which im used to meaning ‘women’s underwear’ for most of modern fashion history, and chemises don’t often have embroidery and embellishments because like, they’re not meant to be seen, altho it’s not uncommon for wealthier people)

he’s essentially wearing the equivalent of the unbottoned shirt to show a cute lacy bralette underneath

i thought about this again and it cracked me up fuck all yall im hilarious
