House of Inconvenience

There is no focus here. I like creepy, awkward, cute, and scary. My primary fandom is Rise of the Guardians, but I reblog a lot of photography and art.

Grace having either zero privacy or complete privacy, no in between and no say in when he gets it vs Rocky having the option for privacy whenever he wants but not enough space to be able to truly make noise/“let loose” without accidentally drawing Grace’s attention. AND they both have PTSD. Living situation from hell

i know in my heart of hearts that during those four years they had at least one horrific unprocessed traumatic stress and overstimulation induced slamming doors and throwing any satisfyingly heavy blunt object that wasn't bolted down fight that led to grace being fully suited up and standing in the airlock genuinely prepared to go out and sulk on the hull of the ship before he realised What am i doing. and went back in to try to make amends + also circle back on some of the seriously concerning things they both said during that exchange.

Moomin enjoyers could get so much more out of the stories if everyone stopped cutesy-fying them so much. This is something I have a strong opinion on. Everyone seems to focus on "aw fluffy little nice creatures" and "Moomin and Snufkin are in love" which YES they are. Obviously. All of that is true.

But the original Moomin stories are undeniably dark. They're often about being sad and depressed and so, so lonely, about looking for a home, about never feeling fully understood, about growing up and having flawed parents. About never being fully able to understand some people. Moominpappa at Sea, the whole Groke situation, Moominland Midwinter, the last few Moomin books in general. The Hattifattener's whole deal. Their world is full of sad and strange things. It's just also about seeing the fun and feeling love in a world like that.

I think the average Tumblr user would love the Moomins even more if everyone stopped pretending that they're Disney-type creatures, and instead embrace the incredible Finland-Swedish weirdness. Tumblr I know you love weird stuff! Get into the strange side of the Moomins!

Also Tove Jansson would be on my side here. She was so annoyed by the Moomins getting commercialised and twisted by everyone. I enjoy a pretty Arabia Moomin mug as much as the next person. I love the wholesomeness of these stories, too, and I don't want to tell you how to enjoy these books. Keep a place in your heart for the darkness in these stories, is what I'm saying. You might love them even more if you do that.

I remember one of the books, Comet in Moominland, was about a giant meteor coming to kill everyone and trying to prepare for certain doom. I was like "Damn, this is heavy, I wonder what inspired this??" It was published in 1946, shortly after the invention of the nuclear bomb, so I do wonder if that's the connection. I actually thought it was published later during the Cold War because the book would be very relatable to anyone who did bomb drills hiding under their school desks.

If you have anxiety or psychosis, PLEAZE be careful about your caffeine intake and try to always pair it with food. Caffeine can be a major trigger for anxiety, paranoia, delusions, etc and it's a million times worse on an empty stomach.

Who the fuck changed this from vampires to Danny devito

[aliceinpunderland-blog]
