princess of slumber and dorkery

NB Demi-Girl, She/Her  Hey, I love Shiba Inus, dogs in general, and basically all things dorky. Expect cute pictures of dogs (and other animals), and ALSO tons of comics because i'm dc trash. There's some wrestling thrown in there too.  You can find me on AO3! http://archiveofourown.org/users/ShibaScarf If you ever need me to tag something for you, let me know.

I watched the live action version of "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" on Youtube and I was not ready for the utter lack of emotions from the CGI animals.

Nala looking concerned about Simba hiding something about his past, a comparison:

Also, in CGI this song called "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" does not take place at night.

love when fictional men are so devoted to their partner it makes them dangerous and insane. very slutty behavior keep it up king

I think what made me the happiest about the Kendrick v Drake beef was that for a moment there, we were all listening to rap as rap is meant to be listened to. Active listening, media comprehension, focused, fun, and all to the sound of the spilled blood of a man's career being curb stomped. Generational experience. 10/10 would experience for the first time again.

Now, see, that’s a much sweeter answer, and yet somehow it was not even in my top 5 list in my head. 😂😂😂

i do find myself wondering, like. what is the scene that people think of first when they think of the og no strings? like, what is the iconic no strings scene?

and i honestly keep assuming it’s the bug house scene for some reason lmao

They weren’t lying when they said that as an adult you have to fight for your life to practice your hobbies

[stuckinapril]

They also weren’t lying when they said that when you fail to do so your soul shrivels up inside your body and dies

letting family members sit in for dead senators is just monarchy logic im appalled that this has even happened before

[sugoiney-weaver]

Each state gets to decide how their state is represented in Congress

This has been a common method for a long time in some states

The idea is that a Senator's sibling/spouse/parent/child knows their intentions and policies better than a political rival or a random person would. It's a pretty good way to prevent political assassinations tbh

[prizedpesto]

An unelected individual getting grandfathered into a real political position due to their blood or legal relationship with a deceased elected official is not pretty good actually

Context: Darline Graham, the sister of Lindsey Graham, is sworn in to serve out his term (NPR - July 14, 2026)

[thetrekkiehasthephonebox]

Also, just to be so clear: the governor appointing someone to serve out the remainder of a Senator's term IS a common way to replace them when things like this happen, especially if it's close to a regular election. It is NOT common to appoint said Senator's sister based solely on her familial relationship, especially not when she has no political experience. And it is NOT any kind of legal requirement to fill the seat with said Senator's closest living relative.

Pretend Expert up there is muddying the waters here, as if the issue is that a governor has appointed a successor and not that this specific governor has appointed this specific successor.

"shipping and blorbofication are not inherently at odds with understanding a story's deep themes" and "some people can't grasp the themes of a story because they never learned how to engage with stories outside of the lens of shipping and blorbofication" are two statements that can coexist

[rneliflua]

blorbofication to me is when you love a character in such a laser focus way that you somewhat detach them from the narrative from which they are inserted and treat them in a way roughly similar to how you'd treat an oc for which you still have no story and just like to put them in situations just for fun. which there's nothing wrong with btw, it's just that it can easily lead to people forgetting the character engine in a narrative and not just a barbie doll

so i hauve covid rn and i must say, American cold medicine is the absolute bees knees. You go to a UK pharmacy and they tenderly press like eight (8) paracetamol into the palm of your hand... God FORBID you're sick in France, i had to scour every pharmacy in Paris for something that wasn't HOMEOPATHIC PASTILLES. meanwhile last night i took the last of my stash of Nyquil that expired in 2019 and it was like getting hit by a fucking baseball bat (affectionate). press X to timeskip. LOVE me a cheeky little medically induced coma. you can really feel that it's a precursor to meth. i know that everything is fucking awful over there my friedns and my heart goes out to every one of you but if you need one small bright light of national pride in this time of strife please know that i envy you your cold medicine every day

[slowspinningredemption]

i once took an american antihistamine pill just a basic one for seasonal allergies and i had to immediately lay down and while doing so i vividly hallucinated that i was a steerage passenger on the titanic resigned to my death as my cabin filled up rapidly with water. then i blacked out and when i woke up again my allergies were gone for the entire season.
