Just wanted to give a shout-out to all the fic writers who write in English even when it isn’t their first language: you are the glue that holds this community together.
It occurs to me that Ted never defends himself. At least not that I remember. Like when Beard explodes at him in All Apologies. As soon as Beard actually explodes, Ted never says a word.
I mean, granted, Ted may not have had anything to say at that point. Beard was correct and Ted knew that at heart. He was just having a really hard time with the emotional effect on Roy.
But it stands out more in the confrontation with Nate, because there is a point that Nate is objectively WRONG about. Through all of his hurt and pain, Nate makes one point that Ted could correct him on: the location of his photo.
Because WE know where Ted’s keeping Nate’s photo. And it might have made a difference for Nate to know that too. But Ted doesn’t tell him. He just doesn’t defend himself at all.
It’s probably why it was so good to see Beard so clearly on Ted’s side this episode, in a way that he hasn’t really had a chance to be all season. I want to see more people defend Ted, darnit, because he won’t do it himself.
(I also want to see more characters sitting in the seats during the opening credit sequence. Credit Ted always looks so alone, let him have his friends!)
TIRED OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE NEVER PLAYED A SONIC GAME SAYING SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG WOULD LISTEN TO PANIC AT THE DISCO OR WHATEVER THE FUCK HE LIKES INDUSTRIAL METAL AND DRUM&BASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sans would think the “its morbin time” memes are the funniest shit and he’d quote them constantly. Papyrus gets very tired of it because he doesn’t understand but he wants to support his weird brother’s weird interests so he gets them two tickets to Morbius. and Sans is like oh. uh. thanks. because Papyrus did something nice for him, he’s not going to say “sorry, I don’t actually want to see this movie I’ve been talking about for a week straight” that’d be mean and he’d never hear the end of it. So the two of them go to see Morbius in theaters.
palpatine straight up told anakin he was a sith lord and anakin was like well. this is a lot to process so im going to go fetch my boss and we’ll come back in about half an hour and murder you so don’t go anywhere and palpatine didn’t you have to admire the man
palpatine is the best villain of all time bc he’s the classic master manipulator who pits his enemies against each other without lifting a finger by preying on their weaknesses but normally those types of villains have the caveat that once their bullshit get exposed it’s a simple matter of slapping handcuffs on them bc they’re like weak old CEOs or whatever
but our boy sheev? when his plans don’t go perfectly he’s just like oh well and starts zapping fuckers to death bc he’s also the most powerful old prune in the galaxy and he could just kill everyone around him if he gets bored
like luke throwing away his lightsaber and declaring himself a jedi was great but you know that luke kinda thought that was it, the crotchety old emperor doesn’t have vader to fight for him anymore courtesy of luke cutting off vader’s hand for possibly the fortieth time in anakin’s life, so it’s smooth sailing until lando destroys the death star and blasts them all to kingdom come, but then palps is like aw shucks no new apprentice can’t blame a guy for trying and just starts deep frying luke for shits and giggles and our poor twink is like THIS ISN’T ONE OF THE THINGS I THOUGHT THE FORCE COULD DO ABORT ABORT ABORT
and with mace and co arriving at sheev’s office to bring him in for being dark catholic it’s functionally the equivalent of a scooby doo villain of the week getting unmasked by the gang but then he just starts snapping necks
wow!!!!!!!!!! WHO could have EVER seen this coming
Please make the purge happen for like 15 mins so i can have 15 mins of unsupervised unlimited violence with kim kardashian i am SURE it would tilt the world back into place make the stars realign etc and it would also make me very happy
Sure a dress is meant to be worn, BUT- this dress fundamentally wasn’t meant to be worn by Kim. The dress DID NOT FIT HER. The whole stylization of this dress was about how it was form fitting, skin tight, literally sewed around Marilyn’s body
Kim has a DIFFERENT bodyshape than Marilyn. That’s what those rips and stretched out areas on the dress are from - the dress didn’t fit Kim. It was stretched, it’s been torn, because it fundamentally DIDNT fit her
also- this isn’t JUST a dress, it’s a piece of history. You don’t see people taking out 18th century garments from museums to go to the grocery store for a simple reason: the garments would fall apart. These are not simply clothes, they are definitely not “meant to be worn”, it is a SIXTY year old irreplaceable part of the canon of western icons. To lose a piece of history to such a stupid vain reason is simply unacceptable. Which is what kim k did: she wore this for 5 mins and damaged it irreparably and then… changed into a replica. Why wear it??? Why not just go with the replica from the get go??? This diminished this dress’s life SIGNIFICANTLY, it’s going to last MANY years less now because of kim k’s vanity project. If this was a mass produced dress, if it was not a delicate, precious literal part of a museum collection, that would be one thing- i myself have garments that are OLDER than 1962 that i wear constantly and within reason they are definitely wearable, but i also have a 70’s dress (so actually quite a bit younger than marilyn’s dress) that has a tear so i never wear it and won’t until i can fix it because it’s an irreplaceable thing that i value very much and i’m not fucking stupid. AND it’s not a super important cultural icon!!! it’s literally just a mass produced dress!! To be SO reckless with a delicate piece for no good reason is to disrespect the tireless work that has gone and goes to keep garments like this and obviously also to disrespect marilyn’s memory seen as she was the last person to wear this dress. She was already so disrespected in life, not even posthumously will people let her fucking rest
Important question: no matter how embarrassing the answer is, tag or comment with the first song you can remember really liking as a little kid. The one you tried to listen to as much as possible and thought was really profound. Bonus points if you say how old you were.
i’ll start. the song “i talk to the wind” by king crimson was my favourite song when i was 7 years old … I thought it was so Moving. and it still slaps
you guys who weren’t here will never understand how fundamentally hilarious the rcdart drama was. like imagine waking up one day and suddenly everyone is talking about this one artist drawing captain america fucking weird and you look them up and get hit with these bad boys
and for the record… they chose this. this is how their OLDER art looked like
like. you couldnt PAY me to post this. i would not admit this at gunpoint
sorry but i dont think this post is complete without their attempts at drawing star wars characters
Can’t believe you left out that those depictions of Captain America are meant to be FTM, and are extremely transphobic as well
the nature of social media during the second weekend of june is that people will just make posts going “this looks like shit” “ugh, how pathetic” “there he is, the prince of lies” with zero context and you just have to piece together that todd howard is on stage somewhere talking about video games
