SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP WITH YOU OH MY GOOOODODDDDDDDDD

I love Call the Midwife but all I can want is a prequel set in WW2.

Sister Monica Joan in her prime??

Sister Julienne and Sister Evangelina in the earlier stages of their career??

GIVE IT ALL TO ME. Show me them delivering babies during the blitz. Show me Poplar as it falls apart around them.

I don’t really want the 70s. I want the 40s. Show me what we haven’t seen.

haymitch saying that “to her credit effie stayed by my side” and effie continuing to stay by his side for the next 25 years😭😭😭

Haymitch: Our relationship is strictly professional. Effie, sitting on Haymitch’s lap: Absolutely. Only on business.

the year is 2025

scientists are still scrambling to figure out what “zigazig ahh” is so that they can give the spice girls what they really really want

the spice girls are getting impatient

war is upon us

Op I’m sobbing

I imagine at least one time throughout the 25 years Effie has personally had to clean Haymitch up.

He is drunk, has vomited all over himself and she has to help him in the shower. As she is about to undress him she thinks of her collouges and friends that has paid for the "company" of other victors.

"I won't hurt you". She promises

"I know that".

Bringing this back around AGAIN to say I was whorish and wrong before it’s actually Guess by Charlie XCX that’s playing

Morgan, gripping the car door so tight his knuckles are white: Emily! Slow down! Please!

Emily, who learned to drive in Europe where they have manual cars and roundabouts, going at around 150mph: it’s a straight road and I’m driving a go-kart why would I slow down?

Rip Anne Lister you would’ve loved wearing dickies with the waistband folded down

THIS is the content I want to see

I would love for 14 to recount his adventures to Donna tho

14: "Oh right! You know the archaeologist we met in that library who knew me but I didn't know her?"

Donna: "The pretty one you were bickering with?"

14: "Yeah! You are never going to believe who she is, you ready for this?"

Donna: "Well, go on! Who is she?"

14: "My wife."

Donna: *Extremely loud gasping, nearly spills her wine* "NO"

14: "Yes!"

Donna: "NO!"

14: "Yes!"

tumblr is such a different animal than other social media platforms for so many reasons obviously but one thing i really find funny about it is how on other sites if i see something that doesn't interest me i don't follow or don't like the post. but on here if someone i follow starts posting exclusively about something really niche that i have no interest in my reaction is never to unfollow. its just part of the natural environment. like oh mutual is now really into pro wrestling? ok i guess ill be seeing these guys around now

The escort who yearned for the lonely drunk is insane work actually

no but u don't understand. if anything sotr made hayffie that much more tragic. think of effie, eldest daughter trying to make herself invisible, but goes out of her way from helping her sister, by treating the tributes with respect, sending haymitch off to his games with dignity and a promise to deliver his token for him to his love.

think of effie, trying to hide within the shadows once haymitch won, not seeking credit nor attention for her part, but always within distance of his cage, always within a watchful eye in case anything goes wrong and there's anything she can do.

think of effie, who saw the way and how much haymitch loved and lost, knowing full well her desire to care for him is limited only to their meetings during the games every year, as they lose and lose more children to the games.

think of effie, always thinking of haymitch, quietly hoping against the capitol's teachings, that one day haymitch will get better and be okay, and maybe even open himself up for love once again.

think of effie, the capitol girl who rooted for the rascal, the escort who yearned for the lonely drunk.

Comparing Haymitch and Katniss' narrative styles is so funny to me because he's a yapper and she's a gatekeeper. He drops more lore on D12 in the first two chapters of SOTR than she does in the entire trilogy.

Haymitch is like "Yeah, so this person is related to this person who's related to this person and things are this way because of this and this thing actually came from here and this person is actually my best friend and also here's this extra tidbit of random info cause all my lore dropping comes with it's own additional bonus content and all my unnecessary commentary."

And Katniss is over here like "Tf do I care for if y'all know all the lore of District 12? I'm talking about my beautiful husband's beautiful eyelashes."

People declaring they’ve gotten over their Taylor Swift obsession and dramatically taking down their posters of her and stuff on TikTok because they “haven’t really been listening lately” is always so hilarious to me. When I don’t listen to Taylor for a while, I’ll have shuffle on one day and a Taylor Swift song will come on, and then I’ll genuinely have to pause whatever I’m doing to sit there with the song thinking holy shit WHAT a tune! Do you think she realizes what a banger she had on her hands here? And then I go back to living my life with Taylor Swift still in my heart. It has been like this since I was ten years old. We are not the same!
