what is love
People describe love in different ways. It’s up to you to find your own meaning.
Somebody described it to me, recently, as having the uncontrollable urge to give to a person with no expectation of getting anything in return.
I describe it as the only time in your life when you feel sure of something. Really sure.

I had no idea giant porcupines made fucking precious sounds
It fucking said pumpkin. What the fuck.
I swear, it sounds like it’s saying “thank you” and “pretty good” at some points in the video
Embarresing stories lol
Oh my gosh do I have a story for all of you.
So, this happened on my Disneyland Grad trip last year.
We were on the bus on the way there and by the time it was our second bus stop, we didn’t have another Disney movie to watch. So one of our teachers that was on the trip (who was my yearbook teacher that year) got a movie at a gas station store called This Means War. Hilarious movie btw.
I don’t mean to be a spoiler, but the main plot of this movie is that there are two guys who are best friends and they are dating the same woman, but she doesn’t know that they know each other. Meanwhile, the guys know they are both dating her and are going to compete to win her heart. Both of these guys are spies and they know how to gather information on people, so they spy on her and figure out what she likes and doesn’t like to be the perfect guy for her.
And that works, but a little too well. The woman tells her friend that both of these guys are perfect for her and she doesn’t know how to choose one. Her friend gives her the advice to have sex with both of them and figure out based on that connection.
And so the woman goes through with that.
Now, one of the guys that the woman is dating is a Britsh man. And I don’t clearly remember what happened, but I was talking to my friend who was sitting next to me and for some reason I remember the famous quote by Paul Revere.
So out of nowhere, during the sex scene no less, I say “The British are coming! The British are coming!”
And a little too loud for comfort.
My friend and I were sitting right behind my yearbook teacher. And right after I said this, she turns around, looks at me, and goes “JENNIFER!”
And it clicks that I just made a sexual pun without even trying. I’m going “Whoa wait I didn’t mean it like that!” My friend is cracking up so hard, she can’t breathe. Half the bus is dying too. I spend the entire rest of the bus ride curled up into a little ball out of embarrassment.

now THIS is an ally
Awe dude his sister died last year and she was gay.
And he had this huge mass wedding party to honor her.
And he called a bunch of celebrity chefs to make the food for it.
Wow this is… really cute?
I’m… sympathizing with Guy Fieri?
(And he did 101 gay weddings because he was trying to compare the Attorney General against marriage equality to Cruella DeVille, like, 101 dalmations.)
THE TRUE UNPROBLEMATIC FAVE
Come to think of it I never actually found a single reason to dislike him. To my knowledge he’s just a goofball who likes food.

These are my favorite parents in any movie ever.
Gomez gives out better relationship advice than like 90% of dudes.
Gomez Addams is a suave motherfucker who loves his wife more than his own life.
Everyone should want a Gomez. He’s p cool.
Gomez and Morticia Addams actually have a very loving and extremely healthy relationship, both in the old TV show and in the more recent movies. They were also one of the first television couples to be shown to have an active (albeit offscreen) sex life. Their frank attitude towards sexuality was shocking in its’ time, but their relationship and their family dynamic is actually more functional and more…dare I say it…sane than most families portrayed on TV.
The comedy in the show came from the family’s “odd” lifestyle, rather than from infighting and petty bickering, or worse, as was common on other shows of the time, thinly veiled references to spousal abuse. They didn’t make fun of each other or act like their children were creatures from another world. Were they strange and outside of social norms? Yes. Were they united in creating a loving home and being good, supportive parents? Absolutely.
These two support and adore their children, care for an aging mother and an estranged brother, put family before everything, and they love each other, wholly, fiercely, without reserve. They are every bit as much in love after at least a decade of marriage as they were the day they met.
Relationship goals. LIFE goals.
Just remembered in the second movie when their third child became “normal” for a period and although they were shocked and didn’t know how to handle it, they didn’t mistreat the child or love it any less. They accepted the difference, even though it was hard for them.
Reblogged for truth.

Posts about Gomez and Morticia Addams are almost always uplifting and I’m happy to have them on my dash, but I think my favorite bit about this conversation is what Gomez is actually saying to Fester.
It’s nobody’s surprise that many of the aesthetic and thematic elements of The Addams Family in its various incarnations are influenced by Gothic tradition (not goth, that mostly came later. And not Goth, that was much much much too early), and I think Gomez’s words are a dead bullseye in terms of Gothic mentality.
“Make her feel like she’s the most sublime creature on earth”
The sublime is a recurring theme throughout Gothic literature. Although the word (like “awesome”) has lost a lot of it’s original luster over the intervening decades, sublime doesn’t really mean elevated and lofty (or even heavenly) as it’s often used today, but rather something possessing the power and grandeur to induce awe and veneration in the mind of the beholder. Although less than divine, something sublime possessed a wildness and power that transcended human ability to control…or even to comprehend.
Sublime is standing at the edge of the Grand Canyon leaning as far as you dare over the railing and still not being able to see the canyon floor below. Sublime is warrior-queen Galadriel being tempted by the One Ring. Sublime is waking up in the middle of the night in the heart of a wild thunderstorm.
“Make her feel like she’s the most sublime creature on earth”
Gomez isn’t advising Fester to treat a woman he fancies like a princess, or even elevate her to pedestal of angelic nature (who’s idea was it to equate femininity with purity anyway? What a laughable and historically damaging idea. Shame on whatever dead (probably) white dudes promoted that!)
Gomez is advising Fester that if he truly loves a woman he must do everything he can to remind her of how she’s an untameable force of nature who’s grandeur brings him to his knees in awe and terror. Just like Morticia, for Gomez.
I’ll sign off with one of my most favorite quotes of all time, because it feels suddenly very relevant:
“When I find myself surrounded by so much beauty, I feel as if I am the eye of a hurricane.”
