lukewarm vampires

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

no listen to me vampires are only "cold" compared to living humans who have a pulse built-in heating unit. but it's not like they have built in refrigeration. the undead aren't actually "cold" per se at best they're room temperature. lukewarm vampires

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

a vampire's temperature should vary based entirely on their surrounding temperature. they're only described as “cold” bc they spend so much time in dank dark dwellings, when actually they're the temperature of a water balloon that's been sitting around for awhile

(incidentally that's also why too much direct sunlight kills them, they expand so fast they explode)

Inside me are two wolves when watching BBC Sherlock

[blackmoods]

GATISS: Casting John Watson was a longer process because we needed to find a fit to Benedict. You think, there’s two alpha males there. That’s not gonna work. Or somebody would come in whose energy was a bit too submissive and it wouldn’t be a match of equals. They needed to be a sort of commanding officer and a slightly junior officer but they’re still officers. And they respect and love each other, really. But Martin came in and it was just instant. MOFFAT: It wasn’t just what he did. It was the effect he had on Benedict. Benedict suddenly became even more like Sherlock Holmes if Martin was in the room. It was slam dunk! We couldn’t contemplate anybody else for Watson the moment we saw Martin and Benedict together.

[vindicatedtruth-deactivated2022]

And in line with my previous post, it also warms my heart to know that the reason why Martin Freeman was chosen to play the ever-loyal Dr. John Watson was similar and entirely parallel to the reason why Dr. Watson had carved a permanent place in Sherlock’s Holmes life, as his partner, his friend.  Because even though Benedict was already brilliant in himself, it was Martin who brought out the best in him and made his character truly come to life.

And I love — really, truly, especially love — the way their dynamic on-screen is a true reflection of the nature of Sherlock Holmes’ and John Watson’s relationship: you can see that Martin, like Watson, watches Benedict’s every acting nuance and movement and takes his cues from there, knowing how to act by reacting to everything Benedict was doing.  And Benedict, like Holmes, is constantly spurred on by the steady but not overpowering presence of Martin, and his theatrics and dramatics are necessarily reigned in by the subtlety and restrained humor of Martin’s acting.

This is what makes a perfect on-screen partnership: when the actors are truly the characters which they play.

honestly you gotta appreciate how nice and compact the hockey plotline was for the beginning of this year like

heated rivalry has tons of people (especially women and queer people) getting into watching hockey. forshadowing his later plot relevance, quinn hughes makes major hockey headlines in december with his trade to the wild. the olympics are happening so it provides a great entry point for people who don't know where to start. a lot of focus is placed on the hughes brothers because they're young and attractive and inside jokes about quinn seeing ghosts become more mainstream.

usa men's and women's teams BOTH win gold medals in overtime against canada. it's triumphant, it's a great story, the men's team even built up a narrative that they're doing this to honor a dearly departed friend.

the men's team immediately goes mask-off with the conservatism and misogyny heated rivalry used as the main antagonistic force to drive the plot. pwhl teams are now selling out arenas and setting attendance records and partying with flava flav. the men's team gets served cold mcdonalds with no soda by the president.

i feel like we don't get compact little plotlines like this very often. gotta really appreciate it

"if you see someone stealing food, no you didn’t.—food is a right, not a privilege. with snap benefits suspended, people are no longer trying to get by…they’re trying to survive.there is power in community. we must take care of each other when the government fails us.

i am not encouraging theft!!! i’m just saying that compassion always triumphs over capitalism. if you can donate, donate. if you can help, help. when survival is criminalized, solidarity becomes revolutionary."

Shocking how many people don’t know that hens lay non-fertilized eggs and think the yolk they’re eating is a baby chicken

[countess-of-edessa]

once tried desperately to make my friend understand that yolks were not, like, a liquified potentiality of chicken, and she looked at me for a while and then said, "but they’re both yellow."

Love being brutally called out by the British Library

[endearingsalt]

Oh my gosh I went here a few days ago do you guys want to see the whole sign

[tikkunolamorgtfo]

I’m covered with “Librarians from Everywhere” but as a former museums professional “Tourists who think we’re the British Museum” really speaks to me on a personal level.

[fandomsandfeminism]

I’m “all ten people who think they’ve got the most niche interest in the whole building”

[chroniclesofchronicillness]

This makes so much sense

[random-fandom-place]

This accurately displays 'running on fumes' as well. Like, once you get to, say, 5% in your tank. Still 100% of your effort. This is such an amazing visual. Even knowing that my chronic pain impacts what I can do day vs. day, seeing this visual just really helps.

Garden Variety Dykes: Lesbian Traditions in Gardening, 1994

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

OH it's a lesbian and her enormous sunflower

I thought she had her arm around the shoulders of her wife, who was dressed as a plant monster for some reason

[scientia-rex]

I am so glad you clarified. I was like “I’m glad that woman supports her wife in making increasingly weird ghilli suits”

[nudityandnerdery]

Many of us saw the picture, thought it was two women, one in a weird costume, and thought, "Hey, good for them."

[coffeepeople]

when my boss found out that I’m bi he said “I knew it had to be something, you knew way too much about art and shit” and I was like “do you think straight people can’t know things about art?” and he was just like “yeah.”

The Onion is putting out some real bangers this week

[dykepuffs]

I have the most beautiful news which is - When my eldest niece was a toddler, we all - Me, two of my biker friends, and four generations of my family - went to see the fireworks at the beach, and she got cold and sleepy so I wrapped her up in my leather jacket and denim kut covered in patches from bike rallies and sat her on my bike so she could warm herself up on the still-hot engine, where she fell asleep.

Her Mam took a photo, and I jokingly said "One day, if she's gay, she'll be able to impress girls with that picture."

Anyway, today she texted me and said that a girl she likes was really impressed with the photo of her as a baby hanging out with the bikers.

you know what? fuck it *reads the fanfic I spent hours writing for my own enjoyment*

[wynnyfryd]

if you’re not rereading your own 3yo one-shots every once in a while so you can shake your head at the ao3 tab and mutter god i’m fucking funny then what are we even doing all this work for?

[angellily920]

It's currently 1:37 am and I decided to finish my Lestrade art. Hope this finds the right people.
