“People were just smaller back then”

Nope. Fat people have always been here, aren’t going anywhere, and have always been beautiful and worthy of respect.

Just in case any of you are confused, TikTok being banned and coming back not even 24 hours later with a giant "we thank President Trump" message is NOT a win. It's a huge red flag and a sign that this was a thousand percent planned.

people with tooth decay aren't bad people. they aren't lazy either. neither are they unclean or irresponsible. tooth decay doesn't make you a bad person. you don't deserve mockery, judgement, or tooth pain for having any. the only thing people with tooth decay deserve is healthcare.

i find it funny that conservatives try to paint me calling for the death and destruction of multi-billionaire CEOs as some radical "woke liberal" standpoint. as if that even has anything to do with politics, especially in this era of surface level circus politics. the same way they try to politicize the hurricanes or the wildfires destroying parts of america, as if climate change is somehow a red vs. blue issue. it's no secret i'm from a deeply conservative family in the sticks of florida and i still grew up hearing "i fought the law and the law won". the healthcare system has fucked each and every member of my family in a different way at one point or another, as is the case with pretty much every family in this scorched earth nation. remember when country music, the genre currently associated the heaviest with the most conservative faction of america, used to be staunchly anti-government and about sticking it to the man? remember when the coal miners, grandfathers to the "trump-er hillbillies" of appalachia that everyone loves to write off as ignorant, fought tooth and nail for unionization because the companies that were built off their labor didn't give a shit if they lived or died? since when has "upholding traditional values" gone hand in hand with... defending lawmakers and oil tycoons. my family and i complain about the same issues at the dinner table. the men in charge better hope they can keep their digital smokescreens running as long as they can because the moment the rednecks and the hippies lay down their swords long enough to realize they have the same enemy, all hell is gonna break loose.

Letter from Jace to Clary (for Kickstarter)

[written for Theresa]

Dear Clary,

You said you wanted me to write you a letter for your birthday, so here I am, writing that letter. At first I thought that maybe you weren’t serious. After all, we live in the same house. We are not separated by time, dimensions, or the turbulent ocean, which are the usual reasons people write letters.

I thought maybe you were being self-effacing, that you just didn’t want me to go to any trouble, especially when we have wedding planning coming up (hopefully soon—since we’re waiting on a peace process, it could be a while).

So I came up with the idea of taking you on a flying motorcycle to see the Northern Lights, but when I suggested it you said no, you only wanted a letter.

I suggested we portal to the south of France and pick lavender and have a picnic, but you said no, you wanted a letter.

I suggested we use our Shadowhunter skills to break into the Met so you could stand in front of every painting for as long as you want, but you said no, you’d rather have a letter.

I suggested we portal to the Tokyo International Anime Fair, because I remembered you saying you’d always wanted to go, but you said no, you’d rather have a letter.

I suggested I could find you the best, most beautiful sword that you’d ever seen, and had your initials carved into it, or a subtle message like “I <3 Jace” but you said no, you’d rather have a letter.

And then I realized that while we have had an amazing time together all these years, and we’ve always gone around the world and seen incredible things, that things are different now. Now there is a shadow hanging over everything, the shadow of the situation in Alicante. And I realized that what you actually wanted is something you can keep with you that reminds you of hope.

So let me tell you, in this letter, why you should hope.

Because no matter what we are facing, we are still us, Jace and Clary. We still have our friends and the people who love us. We have faced so much together, and we have always come out of the darkness into light. And in the end, I believe that love will always win out against hate, because I have faced some of the greatest evil that has ever been known, and the strength I have found in how much I love you has always carried me through. So keep this letter with you, even the in dark moments. Especially in the dark moments. I hope that it brings you comfort to know that I love you more than life itself. And if it doesn’t, remember: You could have had a flying motorcycle ride to see the Northern Lights, and you turned it down.

yours,

Jace

Trump is appointing three washed-up actors as "ambassador to Hollywood" in order to bring back the "Golden Age of Hollywood". Which has historical precedent: there was an ambassador to Hollywood in the Golden Age, too. His name was Georg Gyssling and he was sent by Hitler to monitor the activities of Hollywood studios. To make sure their films didn't say anything anti-Nazi, resulting in many attempts at anti-fascist films being shut down by the Hays Code. Just a fun historical Hollywood fact there

anais-ninja-bitch

@renthony is this so? i know you know a lot about this topic.

renthony

Yep, very much so. I don't want to totally take over OP's post, but Gyssling has his own Wikipedia page. Joseph Breen, the American head censor in the Hays Office, was also infamously antisemitic. Breen and the Hays office personally shut down Herman Mankiewicz's attempt to make an anti-Hitler film titled The Mad Dog of Europe, because Breen put massive priority on "not offending Germany."

(For those who haven't heard: news broke yesterday [Jan. 16, 2025] that Trump has named Sylvester Stallone, Mel Gibson, and Jon Voight as "special ambassadors" to Hollywood. As someone who studies the Hays Code & censorship in general, it's been a weird 24 hours of remembering just how important my work actually is. Variety's article on the subject is here.)

Things you should know about the original Dracula:

serious mustache game

kinda a werewolf for a bit until bram stoker forgot about it

can crawl down the side of a building, head first. stoker claims this is lizard like, i think it’s more like spiderman

apparently has magic clothes? because as he is doing said spiderman crawl down his castle, his cloak is spread out like wings. sir, that is not how gravity works

master of disguises. and by master i mean casually hides as a ginger sometimes

can turn into: a bat, a dog, and dust?

looks super old, has a blood feast, looks younger

needs tons of dirt to sleep on. luckily that dirt never actually ruins his clothes. most likely because they are all magical?

does his own chores. mostly because everyone in transylvania KNOWS HE IS A VAMPIRE AND AVOIDS HIM. so no servants for this count.

sometimes can be in the daylight? depending on stoker’s mood i think?

bites people in a way that makes zero sense. he leaves two marks? how??? does he not use his bottom teeth?????

stoker sometimes just forgot what he already wrote so good luck with this mess

Dracula’s powers:

- Perfectly fine in the sunlight, but has no powers while the sun is up

- Can control storms, thunder and fog (Dracula Untold was actually right)

- Turns into a bat and a wolf

- Can control rats, owls, etc. all things vermin and/or nocturnal

- Turns into mist to get through keyholes n’ shit - Has the strength of 20 men. Swift as a coursing river. With all the strength of a great typ

- Ability to grow facial hair at the drop of a hat. He’s clean shaven except for a mustache at the beginning, and has a pointy beard when he’s young again. Bram. BrAM

- Will most definitely steal yo girl. All of them. He wants them all

- Makes shitty jokes. Like at the zoo, he was really good with the wolves. Zookeeper asked if he was around wolves a lot. This shit smirks and says “Eh, I’ve made pets of a few.”
