since we’re all waiting for s3 here’s an IWTV trailer as an action comedy

[howlerbat]

watching twin peaks is like cooper having a dream where laura goes “what are we, some kind of twin peaks?” so he rushes to tell the PD but the floor is covered entirely in banana peels so they all slip & fall. & the next scene is probably a sinister look at the aftermath of abuse

Why is it always the cool funny best friend who has homoerotic tension with the main character that needs to die at the beginning of the show…

RIP legends

I know Luke Brandon Field is a perfect Daniel Molloy because someone asked him in an interview what his inspiration for the character was and he said Jonathan Harker. And then someone asked him about his favorite vampire and he said Bella Swan from Twilight

Goncharov (1973)

"The Flying Dutchman is the best damn ship in the series. It has an awesome design, a terrific arsenal (the triple guns on the bow for pursuit? that ROTATE?), AND it can submerge underwater and then pull up to other ships like some sort of marine jumpscare?? That is the coolest thing a ghost ship can do

yeah yeah, Black Pearl is faster, blah blah blah, does she have a spooky ginormous organ on board, though? didn't think so"

Black Sails workplace comedy:

1. Billy Bones hates his boss, they got a new colleague who lied on his resume, but he also claimed to 'hate' the said boss. Billy had a lengthy discussion with the said new coworker about the tyranny of their boss. A few days later, the new best friend coworker told him "Our boss? Don't you dare talk shit about him. I just fucked him btw"

2. Everything happened to Jack Rackham.

an insane hill to die on op, rip

"In response to the comments and reblogs in my previous confession (367), first of all I’m queer (trans and acearo), I wont apologizing for thinking your pirate jesus isn’t fruity, also death threats are inacceptable. 1) Some of your answers confuse gender expression with sexual orientation, which is wrong, just because someone wears makeup or gesticulates “weirdly” doesn’t mean they’re queer, you’re stereotyping, this can fall into racist territory too, as not every culture has the same way to express themselves of white people and a good portion of the fans (me too) think of Jack as at least mixed. 2) Actors saying shit during interviews (Johnny Deep “all my chars are queer” and Crook and Arenberg “Pintel and Ragetti are uncle and nephew”) are at best soft canon, if not outright non canonical as there is no evidence in the actual movies, it’s at the same level of the wizards terf saying their magic school principal is gay on twitter. 3) If we look at the factual evidence Jack ONLY FLIRTS WITH WOMEN and, in DMC, when he thinks a disguised Elizabeth (calls her "lad") is flirting with him, he immediately makes up excuses and doesn’t look too pleased by this perceived amorous interaction. 4) Jack is a master at pushing people’s buttons, as shown in the franchise (minus the shitty fifth movie), his interactions with James are like that because he knows that he hates that behaviour, due to his strict nature, also he invades people’s personal space all the time, no one is safe from it (even the governor receives this treatment), because he knows that it can make people uncomfortable fast. 5) There are plenty of examples of people fighting for certain rights but then shitting on other minorities (some gays being trans/acephobes for example), so him being against slavery isn’t a valid point, also he might fight for the freedom of other people because he knows it’s the right thing, but still being icked by certain things, it’s the human nature, it’s full of contradictions. 6) I’m an extreme multishipper and ship Jack with both Barbossa and Norrington, but shipping discourse is as canonical as my takes on everyone’s sexualities in the previous post and aren't a valid counterargument. 7) To conclude, thinking about it he could be considered aromantic, due to a line of dialogue about Angelica in OST (him having caught feelings for her and no one else), but due to the way he behaved towards her I can't think of him like that, for me he's simply an asshole towards women he wants to fuck and can't stand the idea of being vulnerable with them (due to OST storyline) and is squeamish about gays (due to DMC's dialogue)."

me writing fanfic, a medium known for being whimsical and fun and just a little bit silly: if this isn't 100% realistic and accurate in every respect i'll die

[howlerbat]

hot take but I think Claude Frollo is the epitome of “he should have been at the club” type character

[howlerbat]

whats the meaning of life? son, its those little tiny pumpkins. the ones that are mad small.  you know the ones i mean. 

[howlerbat]

when I check a ship tag and see a lot of smut that takes a specific violent or confrontational event from canon and turns it sexual

[howlerbat]

look! the moonlight shows us for what we really are. we are not among the living, and so we cannot die — but neither are we dead.

Some low ratings for Les Misérables that I liked on Goodreads.
