Star Trek (esp DS9), occasional angry political post. Queer. Deaf. In love with Old Hollywood queers. Tattooed. I like dogs. Black Lives Matter. Museums and archives.

I’m not tech savvy enough to know how to turn things into a gif, but Alda sees his muffin top in the mirror, squishes it and then decides to cover it up with his boxers. Very funny scene, sorry I can’t post the gif.

I am genuinely sad the first two seasons are done and we’re never going to return to that exact tone, but not sad in an overly negative way. Those two seasons were perfect and then the book ended. You can always pick up the book again and reread it and the same story in all its complexities will always be contained in those pages. I wholeheartedly believe stories are always better when they’re finite. Switching the tone as drastically as they did not only honours the source material but closes those chapters forever and makes them untouchable.

And you know what? Jacob Anderson deserves for his show to be perfect. This version of Louis deserved it too. Both of them will always have that. No matter what happens and what changes, no one can take that from them.

[tuttle-did-it]

I have zero problem with Jacob Anderson getting to breathe and maybe even sleep, having been both the primary and secondary storylines for the last two years. I expect he’s tired. I’m sure he wants to rest.

I have zero problems with the tone shift. Zero. We were in Louis’ head for the first two years. He was a very intense, traumatised, but methodical and logical (at the time) mindset.

Now we are in the brain of Lestat. He is chaotic, traumatised, excessive, performative, and exceptionally emotional. I’m good with that. I’m good with the tone shift. I’m good with the perspective shift.

Zero problems with the tone shift.

My entire problem is that I fell in love with a show that had a cast that was the majority POC and that show is now very very very white with some POC on occasion.

And I get your point that we had the first two years. And those first two years were perfect. I’m good with that. But it doesn’t mean that I have not noticed the sea of white people flooding the POC positive show that I had fallen in love with. It doesn’t erase those first two perfect years. But it is harming my ability to enjoy this third year.

Ummm she's literally sensitive :/

tumblr isn’t considered a social media because everyone on here is just talking to themselves

[parabins]

yeah i agree

mold pisses me off so much

oh you have to eat your produce the moment it leaves the store or the fuckin Hungering Dust will get it. and. poison your food

[tobiasdrake]

I ran into this post years ago and to be honest, it has completely reoriented the way I engage with food.

Like. I’ve always sorta understood that things grow moldy or stale or sour or such if left out, but I never really internalized it in a meaningful way.

But now I’m just like.

Yeah. The hungering dust. There exists omnivorous dust in the air that will eat my food if I don’t.

Those bagels have been sitting there for a week. Are we going to eat them soon or are we leaving them for the hungering dust?

Pizza’s been sitting out on the counter for an hour. Everyone’s enjoying the pizza, but if we don’t want “everyone” to include the hungering dust then we should probably put it away soon.

That’s just. That’s how food works to me now. There exists an invisible predator in the air that hungers for your yummies, and it will not hesitate to eat your food if you don’t make the effort to protect and preserve it. And eat what can’t be preserved before the dust can.

Life-changing.

food doesn’t actually “go bad”, it just gets eaten by something else first

okay so spock (the alien in blue) essentially goes into heat. like literal heat like an animal. Anyway, spock’s in bloodlust in this episode and must go back to vulcan to have sex with his finace (or someone. but its supposed to be his fiance) or he’ll literally die. this is called pon farr and some backstory spock is half human and thought he wouldnt go through pon farr so he abandoned his HOT fiance to fuck around in space except oops pon farr happens so. he and kirk (in yellow getting his tits cut open, he’s also spocks captain and best friend) and their other friend mccoy go to vulcan so he can have sex with his fiance or get married or whatever so he doesn’t die. but then spock’s fiance (t’pring) is like no i dont want to marry spock i want to have him fight someone to death (which she can do) and spock at this point is fully in the ‘blood lust’ and is basically not in his right mind and doesnt get what’s happening. and t’pring picks kirk to be her ‘champion’ in the fight (her logic is that if spock dies in the fight she doesnt have to marry him and if kirk dies, spock will be so upset with her he won’t marry her anymore anyway). anyway kirk doesnt know that its a fight to the death and so he’s like of course i’ll do this fight if it’ll help spock and then he gets told it’s a fight to the death and he goes WHAT and right afterwards spock slices his titties open like in the gif. also eventually spock and kirk roll around in the sand and kirk fakes his death and THIS somehow knocks spock out of his blood lust and he goes back to the ship super sad bc he’s killed his ‘best friend’ only to discover kirk’s alive and we see one of his biggest smiles of the series (a big deal bc spock is vulcan and they dont show emotion). anyway this aired as the season opener in 1967. know your history and all that happy pride

I have been attacked.

[professional-rat-eater]

Highlight of the episode has to be the unadulterated joy you get from Eric whenever Daniel is on screen. There’s so much more life in Daniel now and that’s obviously deliberate but I also can’t help but think that some of that has to be because of how badly Eric wanted to play a vampire. He was so happy and you could just feel it.

This show is traumatising Jacob Anderson.

So i saw this Facebook post.

Everyone was giving Cillian Murphy guff for not being Latinx, so I made this comment.

AND THEN THIS HAPPENED

My brain is still short circuting.

Sorry friend, Brendan Fraser is famously Off Line. As far as I can see, aside from a personal website about photography that was abandoned in or around 2012, he has no online presence whatsoever.

IF he has social media, he has it under different names set private where he only talks to people in his life.

I would be highly suspicious about any social medias claiming to be Fraser, as he's never had socials. Anything you see is almost certainly fan run. And don't forget now you can buy blue ticks on nazi hell scum site (or whatever they're calling twitter these days) so don't trust that if you see "Brendan" on there. I dunno about facebook and whether you can do that, but point is Brendan is not on any socials under his own name.
