Blog runs on a queue from 4pm-midnight CST/CDT everyday, so just because I post doesn't mean I'm here. This is also why I just reblogged your post from a month ago.
My drafts bin has 15k+ posts in it, and sometimes I go through it. This is why I just reblogged your post from 5 years ago.

honestly I don't care that much about lotr but when my friend was teaching me magic and she whipped out Aragorn King of Gondor I almost forfeit then and there. they just have the world's most beautiful man over there what the fuck
Roy Mustang really spends the whole series fancying himself being in some sort of Usurper Rivalship with Bradley only for Bradley's interactions with Mustang to be, "Okay Mustang sit in that office chair while I evil-monologue at you. Do it again. Okay now go away I have to go fight tanks with my swords and then get slaughtered by a holy man of the people I genocided, which will leave my dictator chair wide open."
And then Mustang doesn't even get the dictator chair.
#truly bradley has such contempt for mustang it's very funny#and part of this contempt is rooted in the fact that like. they're both puppets. they're not technically opposed#mustang is wrong when he thinks bradley is his nemesis#bradley's nemesis is indeed scar#not just bc bradley genocided his people#but because bradley is 'wrath' and wrath is scar's fatal flaw that he must overcome#(wow i should write a fic about thisOH WAIT-)#you'd think this means Father is mustang's nemesis.#WRONG AGAIN!#father is hohenheim's nemesis - obviously.#then who is mustang's nemesis? is it truth?#no! truth is ed's nemesis.#mustang's nemesis is: GRUMMAN!#and grumman fucking wins by a landslide#AS FORETOLD by their original chess game where grumman obliterated him#thank you and goodnight - via @parkersgeorg
I'm pretty sure I've answered it before several times and I'm positive that the answers were different each time. but I'm always happy to talk about it of course 🙂↕️
5. Grotesque. such an underrated episode, but it's so good. representation for insane artists everywhere! Scully suspects that Mulder might've killed someone but when her boss asks her about it she's like um I don't know what you're talking about. I like the suspense, I like that we don't actually know whether it's really some kind of creature possessing people or Mulder's former boss was driven to insanity by obsessing over that serial killer. all that and the visuals look like this. crazy
4. Wetwired. I like that it's Scully's turn to be paranoid. You Are Not Immune To Propaganda kind of episode. I also enjoy that it mirrors Mulder's delirium in Anasazi, both of these episodes exploring the vulnerability that comes with trusting someone so completely, and what might happen if that trust were to break.
3. Kill Switch. they warned us about the dangers of AI back in the 90s but nobody listened 😔 also there's something about Mulder once again being placed in a traditionally feminine role of a damsel in distress that I have to count this ep as additional evidence of tgirl Mulder. not to overanalyze AI generated sexy nurses, but it feels like the machine was like well you're a Man so I'll give you this Masculine Fantasy. surely a Manly Man will enjoy some generic blonde nurses- ah okay, got it, you'd rather see your tiny partner karate chop them. anyways, the visuals in this episode paired with Twilight Time playing in the background makes it an absolute masterpiece
2. The Unnatural. for all David Duchovny's flaws, he sure knew how to write Mulder and Scully. this episode also compares them to a doomed gay romance, which is not inaccurate, all things considered. I actually like the A plot in this, I never thought a story about an alien who really liked baseball could bring me to tears, but here we are. the B plot is Mulder and Scully bickering and making it look downright obscene for some reason. great episode.
1. it's hard for me to pick Theee most favorite ep, so let's go with Pilot. you can't go wrong with it. establishes the mood of the show right off the bat, the characters' dynamic, their chemistry and the trust between them. excellent vibes, the rain and the mud. alien marks and mosquito bites. a skeptic and a believer who became best friends at first sight. there's truly nothing like it.
Context for anyone who is wondering: Lamine Yamal's parents won an UNICEF raffle for a charity photoshoot in which Barça players posed with kids, and 5 month old Lamine happened to get 20yo Messi. Which is like. Literally insane
a ton of people have unexpectedly followed me over the last 2 days so here is my rent-lowering gunshot:
the american south is the most racially diverse and poorest region of the united states, and any political sentiment that treats the south is stupid or expendable is inherently racist and classist. a lot of y'all are racist and classist. the south is also the heart of american culture. argue with a wall. you cannot deny that everybody in the entire world does not emulate artists from atlanta. there is vested interest in keeping the south poor and uneducated BECAUSE this is the most racially diverse region in this country. if you actually give a fuck about progress, you would fight for the south, not mock us.
