“Bohemian Rhapsody” is used the most, particularly in the first episode, with the demon Crowley (David Tennant) arriving at his meeting to discuss the coming of the Anti-Christ as Freddie Mercury sings that “Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me.” Snatches of the song can also be heard as Crowley receives his orders on where to deliver the infant Anti-Christ and just before his arrival at the hospital, which is set to “It’s A Hard Life.” “Bohemian Rhapsody” shows up again at the end of episode 5 and at the start of episode 6 (though different clips are used) when Crowley dramatically arrives at the USAF base where the end of the world starts, at the wheel of his burning Bentley.

Episode 2 plays “These are the Days of Our Lives” just before Crowley collides with bicycle-riding witch Anathema Device and “Bicycle Race” blares in the background of Crowley’s car as he gives her a lift. Episode 5 opens with Crowley racing through the streets of London to “You’re My Best Friend,” as he tries to reach the book shop run by his best friend, the angel Aziraphale. When Crowley discovers the shop is on fire and concludes that someone has killed Aziraphale, he emerges from the flames to Queen’s gospel-inspired hit “Somebody To Love” having finally come to grips with his feelings for the angel.

“Another One Bites The Dust” is used in episode 5 of Good Omens, as Crowley becomes stuck in traffic on the M25 freeway around London and “I’m In Love With My Car” blasts forth as Crowley drives through the wall of fire surrounding London. Queen’s power ballad, “We Will Rock You,” plays as Crowley and his flame-engulfed Bentley “rock the world” of an unfortunate neighborhood watchmen in the village of Tadfield, whom Crowley asks for directions while seemingly unaware that his car is on fire. Finally, a brass band can be heard playing “Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon” as Crowley and Aziraphale meet in the park just before their respective abductions.

The common cold is the most powerful force in the Thai bl world. For most people a cold is uncomfortable but if you're a character in a Thai bl I am so sorry because you're gonna be on your deathbed. It's been 5 minutes since you first coughed and you're passing out in the hallway, you’re unconscious, you're helpless, you don't know what's happening. Why do you have absolutely no memory of the last 72 hours? Oh right because you went outside in the rain for six seconds and caught an insta-cold and now you're in your crushes' house having nightmares of a past life. The only thing standing between a bl boy with a cold and the sweet embrace of the grave is a bowl of room temperature water and a washcloth

this is ur free pass to talk about ur hyperfixation. i have no idea wtf it is but i want to hear

You dont understand how happy that just made me, I literally giggled and jumped up and down like a little girl.

Ok so it's this show called SKAM, or Shame in norwegian (and I'm deep in it rn). So it's basically this Norwegian teen drama but there's a ton of remakes around the world (so far I've seen Skam France and WTFock which is Skam Belgium, but there's a ton, like Skam Italy and Skam Austin). But the cool thing is when it aired it was in real time and random, so basically if there was a clip of an episode that took place at 5:30 on Monday, it would air at 5:30 on Monday and then at the end of the week they would release the whole episode. But ALSO, they would randomly release texts between the characters AND all the characters had Instagram accounts run by the show that would post randomly. And so basically each season follows a different character and the OG only had 4 seasons but some of the remakes have many many more, and the remakes have to follow the same characters and general storyline of the first four seasons, but then they can do whatever they want and it's really cool.

So basically everyone's favorite season (and the reason I watched) is season 3 because it's about these guys Even and Isak who fall in love (and we love queer romance) and it's actually soooo good. Basically Isak is gay but super in denial and has all this internalized homophobia that goes out the fucking window when he meets Even, a raging pansexual with enough charisma to make a lesbian fall for him istg (ok maybe not a lesbian but at least a straight man I'm sure). But, mild spoiler, Even has bipolar disorder and has this intense manic episode around Isak which fucks everything up and his ex is like super toxic, but then they get over it and have some of the cutest scenes I've ever seen in TV history.

I've really onyl watched season 3 of Skam France and WTFock, and just clips from the other ones, but from what I can tell, Skam France is very similar to the OG, and WTFock is a little darker (like at one point they get beat up on the street by homophobes). But I really like the remakes because the characters aren't exactly the same even though the story is. So like Robbe (Belgian Isak) is super adorable and little tiny baby and like Isak is too but not in the same way. And like Eliott (French Even) has more of a temper and he's a little more "cool guy" and yeah idk.

I also love love love season 5 of Skam France because it's about Arthur who is the love of my life (dear lord he's so hot) and he goes deaf and I think it's a really great story. I also really like television that focuses on a sense (or lack thereof) especailly hearing because you can do some really cool stuff with it. I think the show did some things about it really excellently and some things I would've done differently just to evoke a different or stronger emotional reaction but I still think it was really cool.

Idk I just love it sm it gives me so much dopamine and just like. joy. ahhhhh thanks for letting me rant even if you don't read it I love talking about Skam and my friends are probably so happy I'm talking about it here and not to them anymore haha.

My bf: you could just find an AI voice that sounds like Hugh Laurie as House and make him say "mouse bites"

sometimes you realize you have retained too much trivia about the media you love and you realize this because someone makes a joke post about wolverine going through airport security and laughingly speculating about how that goes

and you can only JUST barely stop yourself from informing them that actually in uncanny x-men (1963 run) #158 this very topic was covered, because wolverine is expected to pass through a metal detector as part of an infiltration mission where the x-men are undercover, and is able to produce his medic card from service with the canadian military/special services to attest that a "good chunk" of his skeleton is metal prosthetics from war wounds, and that this same excuse would more than likely be used for modern airports

and you stop this because you know! they are just making a joke! it's a joke! but you KNOW

Someone said to me when I was into cod. Keegan is based on Brian Bloom and I have never seen such pretty eyes. And a smile as well.

yeah!! Brian Bloom is his VA and face model. He actively participates in COD stuff and actually voiced one of the Shadows in MW2.

Majestic ass bloke

And this is what he looks like at 53!

[potatodonuts]

Finally started to feel that I draw Keegan the way I see him in my head so wanted to share a couple of things and headcanons

A guide? Absolutely not, just things that I consider signature about him

I don't really draw Keegan looking like Brian Bloom (at least not EXACTLY like him) and the reason is quite simple – I draw NSFW content with this character, and I don't feel comfortable with the thought of drawing this kind of thing, using the real person's appearance

And some more additions

Exhausted – he definitely is, considering the fact that he's living in a practically post-apocalypse world and is working like a bitch on an extremely stressful and dangerous job. He looks older, than he really is. You can notice wrinkles under his eyes and his hollow cheeks. (This is probably also the reason why he has big eyes) He's also not really thick, I'd say he's rather lean.

Bald – yeah yeah sorry, I know that buzz cut killed your grandma and yada yada yada... But he's a marine, and his job requires long stays in places where there's simply no regular access to hygiene products. Bro can't even wash his ass regularly, he wouldn't want to deal with greasy hair too imo.

More about hair – The hair. I believe that this man has very good hair, although you can't really tell because he keeps it buzzed. So yeah, probably his ass and balls are more hairy than his head.

Should I say that this is my personal vision of the character? Can I not, please, it should be pretty obvious

So the thing is, right? The thing is that i saw this beautiful loustat fanart based on this photo and I wanted to recreate it with Armand and Daniel.

But then @molgars decided to just take me out back and shoot me by writing the horniest, most unhinged fic ever too, so... you know. Here we are.

granted i havent read lotr since i was 13 but the way legolas joins the fellowship always cracks me up, like hes literally a prince but they sent him as a messenger to basically tell the council like "whoopsiedoodles we fucked up and gollum is gone, that's what you get for entrusting him to the party elves of mirkwood you know how we get" and he feels SO bad he joins this super deadly quest like imagine you're thranduil and you're like "hey son can you go to elrond's house and tell him we fucked up royally" and your son is like sure pops can do but then you don't hear from him for like two months so you call elrond like hey e-dog what's good have you seen my son. and elrond is like. well i dont know how to tell you this but he went on a homoerotic voyage to the most dangerous place on earth. id be so mad
