Idiot In Training

Don’t mind me, just a huge dork obsessed with too many things and thirsting over too many fictional characters to count here.

Lad 1: An' you're sure I'm not gonna die? ...ah- no- I can't, I canne get- no, no

Lad 1: *hits bong*

*2 lads off camera squealing and laughing*

Lad 2 (off camera): ohh wee man, wee man! keep breathing in wee man! ...oh, wee man... you'll be feeling this...

Lad 1 (enunciating clearly): ...I'm actually bisexual.

The fact that it opens with a map of where they are doing this shenanigans really makes it.

people don’t only have gay/bi headcanons for the purpose of shipping… sometimes you just look at a character and go ‘yeah that is not a heterosexual’. it’s just about. vibes. it’s about what’s in your heart.

college professor just said “you’re probably too young to even remember this” and brought up something that happened in 2011

[light-em-up-benzedrine]

Better than my professer that said we’d “probably recognize this from Saturday morning cartoons” then showed us a cartoon from 1935…

New immortal vs. old immortal

[antimasculist]

poor people romanticizing the environments they grew up in and the fashion they grew up with because we have only ever seen it been demonized and we want some semblance of love and pride for where we came from??? ohhh sexy and beautiful.

rich people romanticizing poor aesthetics? I'm going to kill you in a violent rage

Anyway have a collection of stuff our italian art/furniture restoration teacher has said:

“If you’re in this business for money, you’re in the wrong business. Go work at McDonald’s.”

“All insects are referred to by their latin names. If you really want to piss off a conservator, ask him if he’s familiar with lactobacillius bulgaricus. He won’t be, that’s in yoghurt.”

“A mirror doesn’t usually wear down from being used. People that ugly are rare.”

“When I see the Alps I will instantly weep, because I know I’m almost home. and if someone dismantled the Alps, I’d cry harder. Moral of the story is, there’s no pleasing me.”

“One year a girl asked me if we’ll have to use animal glue, because she’s vegan. I’m a vegetarian, too, and I can already promise you this: You don’t have to eat the glue. Actually, now that I thought of it, I’m forbidding it completely. If I see you eating glue in this class I’m throwing you out.”

“If a very old object has been kept well, it can still be in very good shape. Like a grandma. Old things are never ugly, they must be respected.”

“Do not put silicone breasts on the grandma.”

“In the video interviews (for school entrance exams) there were some interesting, and even funny ones. None of you were funny, though. The funny ones didn’t get in.”

“When I was in school, interior design was taught by an architect who didn’t know anything about the subject. Never trust architects, they are evil.”

“Low-fat milk is only good for making milk paint, it’s poison. It’s just chalk and water, and even the chalk has been removed. Low-fat milk is essentially nothing.”

[Has a 15-minute argument with a student about whether “dark blonde” is a real hair colour]

“Fresco also means ‘I am in prison’ in italian, because it’s a bit cool. Or was, nowadays I think prisons are quite comfortable.”

“Ideally we’d use pure 100% ethanol, but we’re not allowed to get that anymore because we’re in Finland. They don’t even sell pure ethanol to doctors or hospitals, because medical students kept stealing and drinking it.”

“The man was - what was his name? Hefner. No, Defner, Hefner was the american. Apparently my brain rotates around playboy-magazines today.”

“This may be the only example of this kind of object in Kymenlaakso. Do not drop it, I might suddenly become very violent if something happens to it.”

“I have a jar of shellac in my old workshop in Italy. Haven’t been able to open it for 25 years. Every year, I try again.”

“If you can’t have a baby and don’t want to break into a maternity ward to steal hair, goat hair brushes are almost as good. But baby hair would be the best, it’s not like they use them for anything.”

“The best vodka is made out of potatoes, not wheat. Remember that. Polish potato vodka.”

“Let’s have a coffee break. Fifteen. I mean fifteen minutes, do not have fifteen coffees.”

 He’s notorious for never actually booking a class, but just having his classes wherever he wants and whenever he wants, and acting insulted when he and his students are shooed out. One morning when he was having a class in the room that our teacher of the day had booked for the day, Diego left first with all his students following him in such a neat row, that he started sarcastically muttering some prayer or religious litany in either italian or latin as he went.

You know what Good Omens does NOT get enough credit for? How it never, not once, makes gender presentation the butt of a joke.

Crowley presenting as female to be Warlock’s Nanny? The way this was filmed, acted, and written wasn’t made to be funny whatsoever. She was stunning, I loved the hat!

Pollution using they/them pronouns while the postman used the gender neutral honorific of sir for them? What’s there to make fun of? They’re royalty.

Archangel Michael, who has a traditionally male name, played by a female actress? Never questioned.

Lord Beelzebub’s androgyny? Only respect for the Lord of Hell.

Aziraphale sharing Madame Tracy’s body? Crowley recognized his angel and accepted it no problem. He was right about the dress too, it did suit him!

Crowley’s pure, unfiltered non-binary/gender-fluid energy in general? Fucking fabulous. Who could seriously make fun of this demon’s style? As someone once pointed out to me, you could swap him with Tilda Swinton and I’d see no difference. What an icon.

Good Omens is the first big show I’ve seen to basically avoid transphobia all together when the opportunity presented itself, and even say fuck you to the gender binary as a bonus. If the biggest binary in all the universe, Heaven and Hell, don’t give a damn about it then why should you?

For anyone not keeping up, Trump held a rally earlier today, told his supporters to storm the Capitol building with him, then went to hide in the White House.

Protestors tore through 4 layers of barricades and are fighting cops to get into the Capitol building. A possible bomb was spotted and the Madison and Cannon buildings have been evacuated while a bomb squad was called in. And just now the Capitol has gone into lockdown.

But also Pence issued a statement that he is not doing anything with the electors and McConnell denounced Republican senators’ efforts to stop counting the electoral votes.

And as I was writing this, the protesters breached the Capitol and Pence was pulled from the Senate chamber.

[pancakeke]

The Senate just recessed due to the Capitol being breached.

Cops are doing pretty much nothing to stop any of this from happening btw. Protesters are outside the Senate door.

[pancakeke]

OK everything got a lot crazier really fast.

Trump lashed out at Pence for not stopping the vote. He is not telling the protesters to leave but instructed them to “support the Capitol police and law enforcement”. Trump later told protesters to “remain peaceful” despite already storming the Capitol.

Ivanka tweeted out calling the protestors “patriots” but then deleted this tweet and replaced it with one saying violence is not patriotic. Meanwhile Rudy Giuliani’s messaging to protesters is to be peaceful and that they are on “the right side of history”. Neither acknowledges the violence.

The Department of Defense denied a request by DC officials to deploy the National Guard. Supposedly it was because they were beholden to Trump and only acted when he decided to deploy them about an hour later.

Guns were drawn by police on the Senate floor as protesters break through windows in an attempt to reach the room. One women was shot in the chest (GRAPHIC VIDEO). It appears she was with those trying to break into the Senate floor. Later reports state that that 5 people have been transported to the hospital, including at least member of police.

Police are making “attempts to deescalate”.

Ted Cruz is sending fundraising text messages to contest the vote despite the escalation of the riots. Screenshot of one here.

Mitt Romney called the riots an  “insurrection”.

Emergency procedures were emailed to all Capitol staffers urging them to hide.

Mayor Bower issued a 6pm curfew.

Protestors are climbing all over police vehicles without cops stopping them. Maybe because they’re too busy taking selfies with the protesters.

The potential bomb has been detonated by bomb squad.

Trump is refusing to condemn the protester’s violence despite being urged to do so by staffers which is a stark contrast to his attitude toward BLM protesters. His aids can’t convince him to do anything and the White House briefing room is empty with no preparation to address the nation to be seen.

 Only Pence is stepping up to call for an end to the violence and for protestors to vacate the Capitol.

President elect Biden is calling the protesters a “mob” and an “insurrection”.

Chris Christie has been attempting without success to contact Trump and convince him to tell his supporters to leave.

As I finished writing this Trump finally posted a video telling people to go home, but also repeated his false election claims. In it he also calls his supporters “very special” and his opponents “evil” ??

[zcrimsonqueen]

…….A BOMB?!?! Privilege, entitlement, and stupidity are a “very special” dangerous mix. And stop calling them “protesters” they are DOMESTIC TERRORISTS.

The best trope in the world is when a character realizes that they’re in love with another character and instead of being bashful or cute about it their internal monologue is just “NO. GOD. FUCK. WHY”
