Kate Winslet as Rose DeWitt Bukater in TITANIC (1997)

There was this myth, I think, that was created by the media that the films entire success was based on 14-year-old girls going back to see it over and over again because they were in love with Leo. Certainly, that was a factor. But I also think they missed a critical point, which is teenage girls love the movie because it was about them. And they related to Rose. — James Cameron (Director)

So when I decided to write the book on it and I went to see the movie again, there were two teenage girls sitting behind me and they were weeping. And I said, "How often have you seen this film?" And they said, "Oh maybe six or seven times." And I said, "Why do you love this film so much that you keep seeing it?" They said the payoff in the movie for them was seeing those photographs at the end. It was seeing this old woman who had been the young woman and that she had lived a rich and really full life. And that she had survived all these troubles and had made something of herself. And that was so inspiring.

— David Lubin (Author of BFI Modern Classics: "Titanic")

charlotte: i don’t understand why the templars are also rebelling 🥺 i thought they were working with the chantry to keep us all safe!

miranda: it’s because the chantry is run by women. men will do anything to avoid taking us seriously

samantha: well, i’ve known plenty of mages and templars, and the only difference was that the mages didn’t need lyrium to get it up

carrie: big is moving to treviso

Another thing fandom needs to start doing more of is projecting on tops.

There are delicious amounts of psychological distress you can inflict on that guy once you get into his head. The brainworms of forcing agency and initiative on someone who genuinely is Not Fucking Ready For It are exquisite.

I thought you liked catholics?

That’s a fetish. Good for roleplay but not earnestly irl. I like their horny art. But ultimately the Catholic Church is an enemy of humanity.

Joining the war on queerbait on the side of queerbait bc after a time you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting. It is not logical but is often true
