When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie That's Amore

I actually had nothing planned for his birthday, so have this silly doodle that is thanks to my brilliant word association whenever someone calls PL moon face.

From ancient worlds I come To see what man has done What's fact and what is fiction To judge the contradiction

you know a joke that never EVER gets old is when a character says smth like “I will NOT go to [place] and that is FINAL” and then it cuts to them in that place I eat that shit up every single time

I saw this meme a while ago, and have felt the urge ever since to Caligari-fy it.

also i think this has been figured out at this point but the whole "i miss queerbaiting" convo is like... the part of queerbaiting that ruled was because the show was usually putting forward two dudes, those two dudes got to have character arcs and motivations and writing behind both of them. they could both be interesting individually. because neither of them were shunted into 'disposable romantic interest' for each other.

but if a gay couple on tv is now supposed to be there, writers can fall for the m/f trap of 'only one of these characters needs to be fleshed out, the other is just here to explicitly be the love interest and maybe die later' except now they can both be dudes. it's not that queerbaiting was inherently better it's that unfortunately people have always been bad at understanding what makes fictional romance compelling, which is 'who the fuck are these people in the first place and why should i care'

i love watching TV shows that absolutely suck and being like "this would be so good if it was good"
