i think every medieval timesey ren fair type attraction should have a booth of pedantry where if you wanna know if something happening is Authentic or you wanna ask questions about real medieval times or whatever you can stop by and there's just a historian sitting on a throne of books eager to show you all their research

I like to imagine that Victor Frankenstein and his Creature look absolutely nothing alike at the beginning of their narrative, but as the story progresses, they become more and more visually similar. As the blood pumps through the Creature's veins and his stiff muscles loosen up, he begins to look a little more.... alive, for want of a better word, than the twitching corpse Victor first saw him as. Secretly living with the De Laceys, he copies their facial expressions, practicing them again and again until they almost come naturally. Almost. He even has some of his creator's clothes. Meanwhile, as Victor's health deteriorates, his skin becomes sallow and transluscent, revealing the blood vessels underneath. His hair grows long and wild. His lips turn purplish black and shriveled with frostbite in the harsh Arctic. And maybe, in the dimness of Walton's cabin, when the candlelight hits them just right, Victor's dull, watery eyes appear almost yellow.

People don't actually grow out of their emo phases. People are forced out of their emo phases by employers who get a raging boner over controlling how their employees dress, cut their hair, whether they mod their bodies and so on

How many beautiful emo men would we have if not for the tyranny of the 9-5. How many strange goth women are trapped inside the performance of a clean girl aesthetic because she needs to be able to eat. How many people are wage slaves when they should be punks?

I hate that I cannot dress the way I want to. Most people say to do this as a teen and "get it out of your system" (sure, Jan), I didn't even get to then.

Everybody wants to tell you how to dress and what to wear and how to do your hair and makeup and even then they won't cut your hair the way you want it 90% of the time because "you'll regret it" ...

😒

... Mam, what I regret is society's idea that there must be a normal and that I must fit in it.

[pocketkris]

do you ever become obsessed with a character and you just go "of fucking course its that one" at yourself because you are so incredibly predictable

If I were to make a modern adaptation of Dracula, I think it would be most true to the novel to use the found footage storytelling technique. I would use video camera surveillance tapes, news reports, video diaries, and even Zoom calls to represent the diary entries, newspaper articles, letters, etc. that make up the book. None of them were originally created with the intent of documenting the monstrous nature of the Count, and only after a while does it feel like the different perspectives and pieces start fitting together to form the story that you come to realize has been told all along. I just think it would be neat to stay true to this (honestly really modern) type of storytelling in a new medium.

It just occured to me that among all the different and somewhat conflicted emotions we are all feeling right now, this seems to be the most important one to me:

We might not be okay yet, but I trust Michael and David and Rob and Rhianna that they (and everybody else on the production team) will make sure it WILL BE OKAY in the end. Probably so much better than "okay".

So I guess this is my campaign to add #we'll be okay to posts about Good Omens season 3. For anyone who might need the reminder in that moment.

There's something hilarious about how so much subsequent media has positioned Vampires and Werewolves as, like, binary opposite entities, and then you read Dracula (1897) and realize that wolves are that guy's preferred solution to every problem. You'd say something to Dracula about "ah yes, werewolves, vampires' great eternal enemies," and he'd just be like "you mean my subcontractors?"

If Michael Sheen investigating illegal toxic waste dumping and possibly getting poisoned from it and David Tennant telling politicians to fuck off because of their behaviour towards trans youth and taking down Prime Ministers isn’t the most Crowley/Aziraphale coded thing I’ve ever heard then I don’t know what is.
