#it is the same

Now I know who Astarion‘s voice reminds me of! I know it‘s not the same guy, but Astarion sounds exactly like Lucifer from the Fox Series.

Just realized how evasive Mike was in his apology to Will in season 4 in one specific way.

He apologizes for ignoring Will since the fight but does not explain why he didn't keep in touch; we know that. But he also does this:

He addresses Will's core concerns. Will asks him "why didn't you keep in touch? Why do you ignore me when El is around?" He uses the classic strategy of replacing it with the easier questions "did you want to keep in touch? Do you still care about me as your best friend?"

He tells Will he does. And because this validates the core of Will's concerns, it seems interchangeable. But it isn't. He arguably used the same tactic with El, it just didn't work on her. "Why can't you tell me you love me" "I do care about you". He attempted it, but because it was a direct response and not two days later it was easier to see the inconsistency between the question and his answer.

But with Will, Will asked why Mike treats El differently and Mike answered "it isn't because I love her more than you". Had it been back to back like El's was, I think it would have been more visible that, however nice, that isn't what Will asked.

Mike is essentially pulling the "I can't tell you why, but trust me: it's true," and so many people including Will fell for it without even batting an eye, at the very least on the first watch - I know I sure did.

But all Mike is doing is raising more questions. Before we had "why do you treat Will and El differently?" Not too "queer" a question, is odd behavior but doesn't raise NEARLY as many eyebrows as "I can't tell you".

Mike doesn't want Will to feel bad or blame himself so he apologizes. He prioritizes Will over his pride and takes full responsibility. But to do that and still do it so surgically, feigning resolution to avoid further questioning, is to admit to the audience "the answer to this question is one that I will take to the grave". And whatever the question was could never be nearly as suspicious as that.

Hate to break it to ya but little old bookstores have customers, too.

I honestly feel that working in a little old bookstore would solve all of my problems.

I love that I share my house with one of the most efficient apex predators millions of years of evolution could produce. I love that two of nature’s most prolific machines met and were like “hmmm. We should lay around and do nothing together”. Now we’re both fat and happy and full of meat. The hedonism of it all

Lyra, my beloved cat of 13 years, passed away this year on Father's Day. She's been by my side through very difficult times and was my little rock of steady and unrelenting love. I struggled a lot drawing this, and struggled a lot posting it, but I know I would've wanted to read a comic like this that validated my grief for her when I lost her.

Wherever you are, Lyra my little summer star, I love you always! Thank you for being the best thing in my life.

I know that realistically you can only fit so many movies into a list of approximately 100, but I cannot take that "How many of tumblr's favorite movies have you seen?" list that's been going around seriously because there are some truly egregious omissions.

Some of it is very clearly recency bias, which makes me wonder if the op truly wasn't on here in 2013 or so, but you're telling me you made a list of "tumblr's favorite movies" that doesn't include Pacific Rim or Mad Max: Fury Road? Because, like, I was there, Gandalf.

nothing but respect for our troops (smut writers) but listen. i dont want to be the person to tell you this, but not every character is going to be a dom or a sub. some people. and i know this is hard to hear. but some people do have vanilla sex. and some of those people might even be The Character.

watching death note with my family and after the college entrance episode my mom asked offhandedly if anyone had ever pictured L and light as a couple before. it felt like one single white dove had landed on a crystalline lake in a beautiful pure clearing. no i dont think anyones ever thought of that before
