Real ones will remember when I made a Not My President Playlist back in 2016 that was kinda mid and I deleted it after Biden entered office bc I thought it kinda sucked and could be better and then I got into a lot of folk punk type bands in the last several years to remake it but instead of just theming it after a meme the working title is "current mood under our current administration"

on god it took me 11 months to finish chapter 7 of Thanks for Listening only bc I hated how much it was dragging on only for me to immediately begin writing ch 8 the next day bc i was desperate to get Vox's rage down on paper and off the back burner of my creative stove. I've been waiting for the big blowout fight for years. I'm so excited for the toxicity it's crazy

hmm do I work on Thanks for Listening ch 7 or the werebeast AU I've been neglecting for the past 7 years and just started officially writing the rough draft of the actual plotline instead of just the sex

[hello-astronomybabe]

Cover for my comic! It might take a while for me to upload the first chapter. But! I'm excited that this turned out so well!

Thanks for the help with fabric folding and color theory @poltergeist-punk, @insanemonkey46, @tanglelover and @vibinwitch. I really appreciate it!

At a second showing of the looney tunes movie at 10:30 at night. We out here supporting animation if WB won't do it damn it.

I’m watching The Big Bang Theory in its natural setting—playing in the background of a hot spiral room—and I can say within that specific context, it is a very charming show. Like the saltine crackers of media.

[andhumanslovedstories]

Hospital room. A hospital room. Not a hot spiral room. What a nightmare idea. And you all rolled with that idea. The idea that I was sitting in a hot sweltering spiral prison watching the Big Bang theory is actually what hell is. Bazinga.

I think we need one of those popular read-along blogs to tackle The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in the same way that's been done for Dracula and Moby-Dick. The number of folks around here who appear to be under the impression that reading a queer subtext into Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is a subversion rather than being straightforwardly material to the plot is frankly embarrassing, and I'm assuming this is because nobody's actually read the damn thing.

[prokopetz]

A brief refresher for the folks asking "what queer subtext": though this element is often dropped from modern adaptations owing to audience familiarity, in the original book, the fact that Jekyll and Hyde are the same person is framed as a twist. The front half of the novel concerns a friend of Jekyll's named Gabriel Utterson investigating the nature of the relationship between Jekyll and Hyde, and trying to figure out why Jekyll appears to be protecting Hyde. Though Utterson seems to have arrived at a conclusion early on, this conclusion is disclosed neither to other characters not to the reader.

Later, once the cat is out of the bag, it's explained that the original motivation behind Jekyll's scientific research was not to create a transformative serum, but to purge himself of a certain flaw in his character, the nature of which is not described. It's additionally alluded to that this character flaw led him to commit a series of shameful indiscretions in his youth, the nature of which is not elaborated upon.

Questions for further discussion:

Prior to the big reveal, what does reading between the lines suggest Utterson thinks is going on between Jekyll and Hyde, and why is he so reluctant to disclose this belief?

What is the significance of the fact that the nature of the character flaw of which Jekyll sought to rid himself is never specified, nor the particulars of the shameful acts it led him to commit?

Why are there so many older unmarried men – including both Utterson and Jekyll himself – kicking around in this story, anyway?

[noistanaccount]

I remember reading it in a college English course and met someone who genuinely managed to go in unspoiled (which was kinda incredible to me and the rest of our group who had been spoiled a hundred different ways including by looney tunes). Naturally, her assumption was that Mr. Hyde was Dr. Jekyll's lover.

[prokopetz]

I know, right? If you're somehow going in unspoiled, Utterson's unspoken suspicion that Hyde is Jekyll's kept boy isn't even something you need to squint to see in it – it's simply the obvious reading by contemporary standards.

[stephenleasheppard]

Jekyll and Hyde retelling but the second act twist is that there’s no serum and this one really is about the elderly Jekyll’s kept boy, Hyde, having turned out to be a psychopath who’s committing acts of violence escalating towards murder around the city while blackmailing Jekyll to cover for him.

[prokopetz]

Somehow the story's dramatic climax still involves a sexy axe-wielding butler.

Every year, you are treated to a rare delicacy: the village of humans offers up a pure maiden to appease your appetite. You lick your lips as you see the shivering young woman pushed into the cave. But as the door locks, she straightens up, cricks her neck, and grins wickedly. "They bought it."

if you’re on tumblr long enough you’ll find yourself being called a worthless piece of shit by someone who’s an objectively worse person than you could ever be. and that’s showbiz baby

[thesituation]

this is also how customer service works too

[fauxpontchartrain]

This is actually such a power move for me because everyone who has beef with me knows I have an actual attempted mass murder charge (that got knocked down to a misdemeanor for just assault, hence I can continue to talk shit on tumblr rn lmao), so to get dragged in any way on tumblr by a bitch whose mental issues are on full display is usually only an even bigger blow whenever someone starts beef with me and I retaliate lmao

as i grow older and age in fandom especially, i have waning patience for 2012 style fandom wars. i don't have time for the type of person who goes "why is this the 2nd top ship on ao3 when it bugs me", i don't have the energy to be friends with people who go "i specifically expressed dislike for this ship and people still write it?" and i have absolutely no time for someone who goes "this very personal trauma i have projected onto this random character and ship should be recognized and agreed by everyone else, otherwise they're bad people"
