One of the things that really gets me when it comes to online witchcraft and magic spaces is how hard people push the narrative that beginner magic is dangerous. It really isn't. No demon is going to show up and suck out your soul because you accidentally summoned it. No deity is going to go out of their way to harm you. Most spirits can be dealt with using a basic banishing spell. It is extremely uncommon for witches to hex each other, but you wouldn't guess it from the fear mongering that goes around about it.

What IS important for beginner witches is learning mundane skills like discernment and critical thinking. Because when you're just getting started, the most dangerous thing you are going to encounter is other practitioners preying on newbies. Know how to spot grooming. Know how to spot cult-like behavior. Know how to read books critically. Know how to spot bullshit when you see it.

Have fun with beginner magic. Get messy. Make mistakes. Fuck around and find out. There's no need to be afraid of it. No one ever cultivated a craft or skill by being too afraid to DO.

KINNPORSCHE (2022) dir. Khom Kongkiat — series parallels: then vs. now

[fck-inspector-m]

MY FRIEND, I ABSOLUTELY CAN!!!! 🥰 Starting from the beginning…

PART ONE: ORIGINAL FILMANIA PRODUCTION & FATE

It’s 2019-20, you’re Mile Phakphum Romsaithong, a very rich socialite who plays guitar. You’re bored and you’ve been thinking about getting into acting, and have been offered misc. BL casting opportunities before (1), but never really felt like any of them were For You, so you turned them down. 

Then, one day, you find out that there is a BL currently casting from the studio Filmania, where the male lead is based on you (2), at least your public persona/physically/whatever. Being a puppy of a man, you are delighted, and go read the script, and then the books, and decide you’ll go to the casting call for it.

At casting call, you re-meet Apo Nattawin Wattanagitiphat (3), who you went to college with and had a giant crush on (4). You guys hit it off IMMEDIATELY, chemistry unhinged, and get cast as Kinn and Porsche. Apo takes it, even though he has historically had a bad experience with the Thai acting industry (5). You are delighted by this incidence of FATE!!!!!!

PART TWO: IF YOU DON’T HAVE FATE ON YOUR SIDE STORE-BOUGHT IS FINE

The show gets dropped (6) Something something the authors, something something the company, whatever. I assume, if you are Mile, you are very sad! And if you’re Apo you’re also pretty sad, because it seemed like for once even with all the industry BS you had a cool dude on your side who you hit it off with, and it was gonna be a cool show. On the heels of that, if you are Mile, and have stacks of money, and see your college crush who is an unbelievable actor about to re-give up on acting and call it a wash, you are like, “wait, I have stacks of money and know everyone”.

So you, Mile, call up the head of the small talent agency you’re signed with, Be On Cloud, which is really just your buddy Pond Krisda Witthayakhajorndet in a fake mustache and a trench coat, and go, hey! So! Have you ever wanted to make television? I have a man here I CANNOT allow to be sad under any circumstances, and also, we’re really good at this and there’s an audience here.

PART THREE: BE ON CLOUD, KINNPORSCHE TAKE TWO!!!!

Pond, being just as unhinged as Mile, thinks about it for a second, and is like. Well. How different can making television be from running an event planning company, which is my real job (7). It’s just calling up a bunch of different guys who are good at their jobs and putting them in one place. And I know so many different guys! Let’s do it!

They get the rights (handwaves this I don’t know anything about it) and jump into production. They get their shit together UNREALISTICALLY quickly (6), and on top of that, since they’re starting from scratch and they’re just A Bunch Of Guys led by Pond and Mile, they decide that their priorities are #1 making art and #2 making Apo happy. With regards to #1, they rework the script (8), hire the best acting coaches money can afford, and put the cast through character-building and intimacy workshops. With regards to #2, they toss out all the industry bullshit that has sucked for him in the past – no more crew/cast hierarchy (9), no more homophobia on-set (10), no more fake fanservice (11).

FINALE: MIRACLES IF U BELIEVE ETC.

Magically, it turns out, when you create a great working environment, you get really, really good TV!!!!! Which means that their unhinged plan succeeded beyond their wildest dreams, and now Mile & Apo are internationally famous superstars who hang out 24/7 with their squad of 16 close friends, and we get to watch them do it. And it has been, genuinely, a fucking privilege. 

To end this tale with a personal note, one of the reasons I allowed myself to get so invested in KinnPorsche so fast is because it was evident from every aspect of it – the show itself, the BTS, the actors interviews – that the people working on this show both really cared about the show and were genuinely having a great time. There is nothing like seeing art made by people who are passionate about making it! 

Their enthusiasm, their hard work, and their obvious enjoyment of the process & each other’s company are what made me feel like I could trust what they were making, because you could tell no matter what else it was, it was from the heart. And that’s really something special! Especially in this day and age!! 

And even though they could pull it off this time because of the circumstances (financial and social), I hope that it shows BL television CAN be made in a way that keeps the actors comfortable and safe and happy, and encourages change for the better across the industry as a whole. KinnPorsche shouldn’t be the last wild BL passion project; it should be the first one of a new wave. (bangs gavel) Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

INFORMATION I WAS NOT PREPARED TO LEARN. MAYBE WE *ARE* ALONE. BECAUSE WE ARE SO *EARLY*. IF THERE IS EVER GALACTIC CIVILIZATION THEY WILL NOT REMEMBER US AT ALL. BECAUSE WE ARE NOTHING. CELLS, JUST BEGINNING TO FORM LIFE. SORRY FOR SCREAMING. BUT ARE YOU LISTENING. ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT IT.

in light of eddie munson being vehemently mischaracterized by straight women on tiktok here is my list of eddie munson headcanons

(and personally i believe eddie does half of these things to intentionally piss people off)

- would ask for a sip of your drink and then proceed to drink 95% of it

- eats food off the floor with zero hesitation. literally zero. to the point where it’s kind of disgusting but he just thinks it’s funny

- only uses pet names in the most sarcastic ways imaginable

- talk over tv shows and movies non stop

- unable to listen to a singular song for longer than 30-45seconds before switching to the next one

- does not understand when it’s time to let a joke die and will repeat the funny phrase for hours on end

- interrupts in conversations. a lot.

- chews his nails and then complains when theyre bitten down to the point where they hurt

- asks so many questions. so many. useless ones too. shit like “if you could live anywhere and money was not a problem where would you go”

- NO volume control. at all

- he headbutts people

- does not understand sports. does not want to understand. makes it a point to tell people that he does not understand

- asks for light ice in his drinks at resturaunts. it started as a joke but then he delevoped the idea that ice “waters drinks down.” it doesn’t matter though because drinks so fast the ice doesn’t even have time to melt

- pretends to punch/throw things at people. constantly. half the time he slips up and accidentally does end up landing a blow or throwing things

- is quick to insult people and make jokes (but he makes sure to clarify hes kidding if he suspects the ppl he genuinely likes are upset)

- if the words “i bet you wouldnt” are uttered.. he. will. do it. you don’t have to bet any money, but he would still do anything for $5

- he HATES sweets

- he dunks his pop tarts in orange juice, and the occasional orange juice and cereal combo

One thing I absolutely love about To My Star is that we're tossed into moments of time with these characters and we as voyeurs have to pay attention to the details in order to piece together their story.

There's no scene where Jiwoo and Seojoon go hunting for a new place together, but we're expected to recognize the new setting and catch the brief line about the old place being sold. We didn't see them get engaged, but we're shown Seojoon massaging Jiwoo's hand and that both of them have bands on their left ring finger, so that we understand the significance when Seojoon asks if Jiwoo still has the ring. We don't see their first 'I love you's, but are shown a vignette of Seojoon saying "one more time" and only then do we hear Jiwoo's "I love you" while for Seojoon it's the nth time.

These characters exist whether we're witness to them or not.

I love that. I love the feeling of being drawn into their intimate circle, but also being held at a distance, only seeing what's needed to be seen, only knowing what they want to be known, and being treated like I'm intelligent enough to keep up with them along the way.

Vegas: *tries to intimidate Pete with his whole unhinged psychopath thing*

Pete: bitch I’m crazy too

[fck-inspector-m]

Like god okay Vegas is evil, and like he’s not even one of those villains whose doing it out of some good intention, he’s doing this all out of spite, hatred and jealousy and an affinity for lying and he gives no fucks about being good for a even a second and frankly I love it, like yeah deeper intention villains are interesting, but sometimes all we need is a sinister fucked up lil guy who just wants to go ham on the pain and suffering and rule the world, he a mansplain, manipulate, manslaughter, manwhore, and I for one, love it

japan found its bl market in the guy with a really bad self-esteem who is actually sweet and a guy who only sees the best in the first guy

[fck-inspector-m]

all these posts about people clutching their pearls about seeing bare titties at pride make me laugh because at last year's pride i met a cishet guy who had no idea what was going on and had joined because he saw bare titties and thought "those people look like they are having fun, and also i can see tits for free" and he asked me about what was happening and let me explain LGBT struggles for some time before telling me he had a transgender cousin and he was going to make sure to be there for her in the future. bare tits will be the beacon to world peace

reading facebook comments honestly makes me want to tear people apart. limb from limb with a primal rage i just dont get in person too often.

People in MCU movies got to keep saying shit like "well THAT just happened" cuz the actors don't have any context for their scenes

Okay, I've seen a lot of people claiming that Biden is somehow responsible for the baby formula shortage. You're looking at the wrong president.

I've attached a picture of the man responsible below.

It's a fun picture of Trump with some other suits surrounded by piles of paper cutting a ribbon with a gold pair of scissors. This was to represent cutting regulations. This was the point where everyone who's ever worked in a lab started screaming.

See, those regulations weren't there because OSHA agents were bored and wanted to slap fines on people. They're there because people got hurt.

These were laws that said don't put workers around radioactive materials without hazmat suits--caused by the Radium Girls ingesting radium daily and daily. Don't leave meat out for hours on end and don't just pick maggots off--Upton Sinclair's The Jungle is about the meat packing industry and how unsanitary it was. Workers have to wear helmets where falling is a risky--helmets reduced death and paralysis. Use vents and fume hoods to move gases away from workers--look at all the people with different cancer from breathing in Lord knows what. Provide a fire escape and don't lock workers in--146 people died in the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire. Don't dump waste into the waterway--the Cuyahoga River literally caught fire. Don't produce medical equipment in unsterilized factories with unsterilized equipment--the Dalkon Shield caused millions of infections because it was made in a repurposed Chapstick factory with no sterilization (among other things).

These laws are written in blood.

Every single regulation that is part of the EPA, OSHA, the FDA, and the DOJ is there because people were grievously injuried or died. They're not there for fun. You might say that this is all common sense stuff but right now Amazon is tallying work place injuries faster than a textile factory at the start of the industrial revolution. Tesla refused to paint orange lines around machines, delineating where it was safe to stand. History tells us that capitalists will put profits first, worker safety be damned.

Now I haven't read the very, very long list of all the regulations that Mr. Trump decided was worth getting rid of. I don't think he read that list. But I'm guessing that there was a law about sterilizing equipment for food, maintenance for equipment, and/or consistent inspections that suddenly Abbott Laboratories no longer had to follow. And just like so many other big companies, they decided to put the profit over babies' lives.

Capitalism is the monster here, and this wouldn't have happened if one company didn't have a monopoly on making baby formula. But regulations were a muzzle on that monster and they kept rampant capitalism somewhat in check. With that gone, this is what happens. It's only a matter of time before we lose another important commodity because regulations were erased.

I love this so much
