somebody just tweeted him the definition of tinfoil, which was pretty much the only time i can think of that resorting to the dictionary definition helped anything at all

Pardon me as I stare into the middle distance for a while

Somehow I managed to miss reading Middletown: A Study of Suburban Life, but now I have, and I think I broke something internally. I am emotionally compromised. That was astonishing. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so many feelings during the reading of a single story, I think I sprained myself.

@anavolena and @morgan-leigh INDEED. WHAT IF SOMEONE ACTUALLY WERE TO TAG ME. HOW WOULD I EVER KNOW. Literally 3/4 of my notes right now are just one post getting reblogged a lot and making it seem that a whole crowd of strangers is trying to get my attention when in fact all of us are just going about our day. Ridiculous.

c. Bloomsbury, you know it's true

they all had long aristocratic faces and impressive noses and my face is small and chubby with barely any nose to speak of!!

“Oh, she’s settled,” Bill had said lightly, with the supreme confidence and self-assurance of a boy just gone nineteen. “Some foxes do this, you see. Change color in the winter, to the spring. She’ll be orange soon enough.” He ran her hand over her smooth fur, which stood up behind his fingers, staticky, and Jim Prideaux, curled up in an armchair next to him, curled up his fists in his lap.

The His Dark Materials/Daemon-verse Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy AU you didn’t realize you’ve always wanted. The worst thing, the very worst thing, is how fantastic it is as an exploration of the original canon. The voices, tone, prose is spot-on, and more importantly, the characters are true.

“Will they ever come?” she asked in a small voice.

“No,” he said. Bill and Aurora would never come. “It’s not allowed. We’re cut off. We don’t exist anymore.”

“Bill doesn’t care about that,” Thisby said. He just scratched behind her ears.

“If I were a bird,” she murmured, eyes drifting shut, “I would fly all the way there myself. To yell at him.”

“You couldn’t make it that far,” he said.

“I could make it that far to get to Bill,” she said, and that was the last they spoke of it for a long time.

I’m just so angry with how strongly this story makes me feel. Fuck it, fuck everything, can’t recommend enough.

Pro tip: first time watchers of a knight's tale do NOT appreciate having every Paul Bettany speech whispered by the person watching it with them

oh, believe me, morgan has seen a knight’s tale before.

she still didn’t really appreciate me telling her everything that was about to happen before it actually happened, though. “he’s about to drop the lance!”

morgan-leigh replied to your post: friend: “my professor is so great...

ohhhhh my god

the worst part is i don’t even actually LIKE this girl

i was thisclose to saying “ah, yes, magically taking on a casual fantasy of someone else’s sexuality and all the discriminations and stresses that come with it in order to initiate an inappropriate relationship with your professor, much simpler than just not dating jerks”

but i didn’t

because i didn’t want to have to hold her hand through god knows how many hours of “WHAT do you MEAN that was RUDE”

this is a girl who i once spent actual hours arguing politely with because she needed some sort of justification for the existence of LGBT choirs, like

there is no point
