i love being in a fandom small enough that when you see a small detail in a fic that youve seen in another that you know they took it from the other one. its so fun if feels like a little inside joke i love it here

i think ultimately you do really have to kill that part of your brain that vividly imagines how you would redo parts of your life.

Genuinely hope "JD Vance killed the pope" becomes a legit, widespread rumor. I hope the whitehouse has to make a statement, thus only adding fuel to the fire about it.

Too bad the prophet Cassandra never met Odysseus

hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset

the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years

taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult

at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)

'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65

it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age

it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.

you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, be fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.

young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!

there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big

My respect goes out to everyone who writes fanfiction. Whether you're crafting epic sagas, filling in missing moments, or just having fun with an AU, it takes so much creativity and dedication to bring those ideas to life.

Writing isn’t easy—finding the right words, keeping the momentum, and sometimes just convincing yourself to start can be a challenge. And yet, fanfic writers do it anyway, pouring love into their stories, expanding worlds, and giving us all something to obsess over.

I’ve even tried writing myself, and let me tell you—it’s hard. I don’t know if I can keep it going, and now I completely understand why there are so many unfinished fics out there. It takes so much effort to see a story through to the end, and honestly? That makes me respect fic writers even more.

So if you write fanfiction—whether you share it or keep it to yourself—just know that it’s appreciated. You’re amazing. Keep writing.

If Vance isn't even a little concerned that he might have killed the pope then you know without a doubt that he's a performative fake catholic

Dead Boy Detectives | Season One (2024) insp.

I'm currently watching A Discovery of Witches (good fantasy show, I definitely recommend it) and Matthew Goode (who is playing the vampire Matthew Clairmont, on of the lead in the show) looks so much like a grown up Edwin.

And every time I think about it, i feel bittersweet, because our beloved Edwardian ghost boy never had the chance to grow and age.

So I have some news...

We are making a feature film to conclude the Heartstopper screen adaptation, based on Heartstopper Volume 6 and the ‘Nick and Charlie’ novella. We are getting to tell the end of the story!!! I’m deeply relieved and so excited about this new creative venture. I’ve written the script and we’re hard at work already. I know you’ll have a lot of questions, and I’ll be able to talk about it more very soon, but for now let’s CELEBRATE! Heartstopper is getting its ending!!!!!! 🍂

I NEED TO READ I NEED TO WRITE I NEED TO CREATE I NEED TO DRAW I NEED TO CLEAN I NEED TO WORK OUT I NEED TO LEARN *watches YouTube for 6 hours*

friends. romans. countrymen. i am asking. i am begging. please use headphones when consuming audio content in a shared space.

Very abbreviated concept, but please consider the classic “Charles gets dosed with a love potion” - but the person the potion latches onto isn’t Edwin, it’s an amateur potioneer with a crush on him and no respect for consent. And it works, fully, Charles is madly in love, sobbing and composing sonnets and proclaiming everlasting devotion and all the rest. He tries to stay with Edwin, but the draw gets too strong as the potion takes hold, and he runs off into the night to meet her.

And then, a few days later, Edwin gets to them, and tries to rescue Charles starting with taking down the potioneer, and the potioneer commands Charles to protect her from Edwin. And Charles freezes, and stares at them both. And then, face covered in tears, slurring apologies, he knocks the potioneer out from behind.

Edwin gives him the antidote, and his eyes slowly clear, coming into sharp focus on Edwin.

“Charles? Are you alright? How do you feel?”

Charles keeps staring, for a bit, eyes fully focused now but brow furrowed, and Edwin gets more concerned, if possible.

“I… I think I feel… I think. No. I don’t think, I’m quite sure. I love you, Edwin. Like, the way you love me. I’m in love with you.”

Edwin lets out a breath like he’s been hit. “Oh.”

He looks back at Charles, hands moving spasmodically through the air, reaching towards Charles and then back again. “I’m so sorry, Charles. I must have failed with the antidote, it must have altered the parameters of the potion instead of ending the effects, I - just give me an hour, I’ll find out went wrong and remedy it, I promise. Don’t worry, I’ll fix it, just - “

Charles surges forward and grabs Edwin’s erratic hands from the air. “No, that’s not what I’m saying! I’m saying - I’m saying that even when the potion was working, and I was madly in love with that bint, I still loved you more. I had to go with her, I couldn’t stop myself, but I still loved you more. And I always have, Edwin, the whole - the whole drunken giddiness or whatever that it did to me, the obsession, it’s nothing to what I’ve always felt for you, I love you so much - so much bigger - than that potion. I love you, Edwin.”

And Edwin looks at him, again, still, eyes wide, hands held clutched in Charles’s, and speaks again, and this time it sounds like a breath let out after having been held for decades. “Oh.”

The thing with amateur local theater is it is almost always bad BUT keeping it alive is the most important thing

monty actually is just a silly little guy. he got 5 days on earth and chose to spend them being gay, serving cunt, pining over a bitchy twink, and looking at the stars

Reblog to make him lose another 200 billion, like to make him lose 1 billion

good shirt from the market today

Charley passing the ball to Wally so he could score the winning touchdown the way he couldn't 40 years ago... Wally punching Mr. Manfredo so he couldn't hurt Rhonda... all of them pulling Charley through the vending machine so he knew he was loved... Wally pulling Maddie up from drowning... im so emotional over this

a year ago all I wanted was to be an adult to finally be 18. and now almost a year into being 18 I yearn for my childhood carefree moments.

being 18 is crazy because its like. yeah im an adult. this is the oldest ive ever been. and then you grow a few years older and now youre an adult for real. and then you grow a few years older and now youre an adult for real. and then y

Wally came up with this, makes us do it at every reunion.

Time we bring traditional values back, imo. Teach RESPECT and HONOR to this young generation smh...

1 like = 1 amen 🙏🙌

watching pole vault instead of revising for my upcoming philosophy test like the heathen i am

may I suggest school spirits ? it another ghost/mystery TV shows that takes place in a high school.

The plot is simple: Maddie is transformed as a ghost and is stuck in her highschool along other students and teachers who died her as well. she doesn't remember how she died and with the help of her (living) best friend she tries to solve the mystery of her death.

The second season is still being aired (last episode is out tomorrow!!!). There is good queer rep and a great soundtrack as well. Definitely check I out.

seconding (thirding?) the ask that suggested shifting efforts to uplifting other supernatural/mysterious queer media! if anyone has recs of things that scratch a similar itch, i’d love to see them in the replies! i would personally recommend cemetery boys by aidan thomas to anyone looking for something with dbda vibes
