can someone pls tell me why they had to make australia disappear as part of the danger days lore. cus I feel like it was unnecessary idk man

in that one video where they talked about it they were like “yeah so the government is BAD and there’s a little girl that is an orphan or whatever. oh, and a whole entire CONTINENT disappeared - but don’t worry about that. here, look at party poison instead. woah, arent they so cool? oh, you want me to go more into depth about what happened to Australia? NOPE! you don’t get that. GAYBOY.”

HOW DOES THAT EVEN HAPPEN BY THE WAY??? HOW DOES A WHOLE ENITRE COUNTRY DISAPPEAR?? 25 MILLION PEOPLE JUST GONE???

“oh yeah so australia is gone. yep. we don’t know where it went lol. oh, is that a problem? I feel like we’re fine without it idk man. how many people even lived there? like three? three people living in australia? yeah. we’re good don’t worry”

WHO IS THE WOMAN IN THE PAINTING. WHAT WERE THOSE WHISPERS.

[unhhhhbelievable]

We need all of the thoughts and feelings bestie... Because I'm sorry but them pretending they have nothing to talk about... It just breaks my brain

Overall thoughts? I have many. LONG POST ALERT.

In a dramatic turn of events, David had something to say about what we did.

I'm sorry, the tone?? The shade. Like, David came in ready to shit on everything. Even Dani had to carefully be like, well we can't really block the bar or this pathway... fuckin yikes?? The designer picked up on his attitude!! JESUS. I'm glad I don't have to see him anymore.

The lobby and check in, so much pink. SO MUCH PINK. It's boujie. I can't sit on anything in that hotel, I'd feel like a hobo.

Juno Birch was SO FUNNY. And Jaymes!!

The queens at the party, both in and out of drag were so cute. Manila?? Loved her jacket. V sweet to see Trixie's band, too. Hi, guys!

NO ONE APPLAUDING DAVID AT THE PARTY WAS SO FUNNY THOUGH AGSIAHDSK

NOW, ONTO KATYA:

My BuSiNeSs PaRtNeR kAtYa

"Katya and I have been through everything together. We've traveled the world, we've done television, we've done music together. (What??) And only a good Judy like her will tell me how this motel actually is." This is so accurate. And also means that Trixie needed Katya's opinion like she needs water to live. How very gay of her.

Katya showing up and IMMEDIATELY snapping open her fan made my heart flutter. I'm gay. Dump.

She looked so fucking good. Just, oversized frock, but still gorgeous. I love her in red shadow.

MUCH older sister, please lmao

Katya clocking the trash outside the gate was SO funny. "I was told it would be ready today, this does not look ready."

Katya going in on Trixie's absenteeism for months, my heart.

"For the last about four months, Trixie has been MIA, working on this stupid motel. And basically ignoring every other responsibility she has, like working with me, um, getting ready for our tour, she hasn't been rehearsing. So if it's not... absolutely perfect and stunning, I'm gonna kill her."

This bitch is out here feeling that Trixie should only honor her commitments to HER and no one else. I'm fine, this is fine. JUST SAY YOU MISS HER.

This bitch needs her bestie, too, goddamnit.

SORRY I'M LATE. I DIDN'T WANT TO COME.

Katya trying to climb the wall was so fucking funny to me. Her gay little run?? Dani opening the door and straight up LEAVING THEM ALONE? Katya's face when Dani leaves and the door slams?? Hysterical.

Holy shit-

I know.

It's VERY pink.

I hope you like it.

🥺🥺🥺🥺

THEIR LITTLE AWKWARD SIDE HUG.

Katya opened her arms first and then changed COURSE. CHANGED COURSE!! SHE SMILED AT TRIXIE LIKE SHE WAS THE SUN AND THEN SHE REVERTED BACK TO AWKWARD HUMOR because sincerity?? With TRIXIE?? DON'T KNOW HER!!

TRIXIE WAS SO DISAPPOINTED. Layers of makeup can't hide that little face, MY HEART. MY GAY LITTLE HEART. HUG HIM, YOU MONSTER.

Trixie cannot help roasting her though, the curtain comment!

Them going over to the terrazzo bar and Trixie hitting it because Katya hit it was SO FUCKING CUTE. WHAT DORKS. Love when the dorkass man shines through the drag.

Trixie hiding her smile when Katya humped the tree, though. Jesus.

The montage of Katya opening the doors and Trixie just going I KNOW!! off camera?? Poetic.

The Scooby-Doo entrance into Flower Power.

Oh my gawd, ya can't find textuh like that anymore, HI, TRISH. (Please continue to massage the velvet heart!)

Katya being Katya in every room!! Stretching her leg on the bar, licking the leather, THRUSTING ON THE BED and pretending to get caught naked in the shower, both in THE QUEEN OF HEARTS ROOM!

Katya saying, "You're the do-uh, I'm the not do-er." HELLO BOSTON ACCENT LMAO

The realest part of this entire show was those two sitting down on the couch to talk. Katya saying it was stunning and that she was impressed, and immediately turning around and MEHing the rest of Trixie's career. THE WAY THEIR LOVE LANGUAGE IS VIOLENCE.

Watching T's entire body go rigid for a second after Katya asked her what she'd do if the whole thing flops, why are they like this 🥲

THE CUT TO THOSE TWO HOMOS IN BED TOGETHER. WITH THE HEART-SHAPED HEADBOARD FRAMING THEM. IN THE FUCKING QUEEN OF HEARTS ROOM. CAN YOU GET MORE ON THE NOSE. CAN YOU G E T MORE RIDICULOUS. THE UNIVERSE IS SCREAMING, BANGING POTS AND PANS TOGETHER.

Those TWO ASSHOLES, trying to pretend they had NOTHING to talk about?? The queens who have made careers out of their conversations with each other?? The TWO BONEHEADS, who have a PODCAST and TWO SHOWS based entirely around how they talk to one another??

The idiots who had a tour ready to kick off?? My god, the stupidity of television.

And THEN, Katya mentioned the weather, the parallel of her FAVORITE UNHhhh episode ever?? WHY.

Goodnight, Katya.

Goodnight, Daisy.

Shut the FUCK UP, MY FEELINGS.

The last time we saw Katya on the progruhm, she was in bed with Trixie.

I was also right when I said David would be NOWHERE TO BE SEEN whenever Katya came to visit. The way that man probably can't even tolerate how Trixie is around Katya because it's just so much.

It was so sweet. Trixie was so excited to show Katya everything, pointing out all the little details and sharing tidbits, and LAUGHING. The whole show, Trix was nervous and stressed and did have some sweet moments with the guests. But she was laughing with Katya. It made me so happy. Their little moment on the bench.

Trixie got the stamp of approval she needed.

And so curious to me, that Katya wasn't shown at the party. Wherever there is David, there will be an Absence of Brian.

The funniest scene in the movie.

[cactusbaseball]

Blackbeard is so fucking hot in season 2. Oh my god

[egophiliac]

IT WAS ERIC AFTER ALL!!!! I'm so glad we got to meet him (before Vil snaps him away with those Infinity Gauntlets) (can't wait to see what happens when we get the matching Infinity Tiara to go with them, there will be no survivors)

(sorry to be so slow/rough lately, just got a lot of stuff on the ol' brain at the moment! alas, if only I could spend all my time drawing incredibly stupid characters I mean I do but)

Finding something cool and thematically rich and wanting to see what other people think abt it and all I find is shipping

tfw you're the only one in the group not obsessed with some has-been

[throesofincreasingwonder]

You know what? I want a whole post for this:

Sex Repulsion is not the same thing as, or an excuse for, Sex Negativity

non-negotiable!

I am a sex-repulsed asexual. This means that I am uncomfortable and repulsed by the idea of engaging in sexual acts. This does not mean that I have an excuse to be repulsed by other people's sexual attraction or the right to police how other people engage in or express sexual acts or attraction.

Young queer people need to learn the difference between sex repulsion and sex negativity, and actively work to unlearn sex-negative attitudes. Asexuality, even sex-repulsed asexuality, is and should be fully compatible with sex positivity.

If you are uncomfortable with the idea of other people feeling sexual attraction or engaging in sexual acts that do not involve you in any way, that is not sex repulsion it is the cultural Christianity and you need to seriously work on that.

crows use tools and like to slide down snowy hills. today we saw a goose with a hurt foot who was kept safe by his flock - before taking off, they waited for him to catch up. there are colors only butterflies see. reindeer are matriarchical. cows have best friends and 4 stomachs and like jazz music. i watched a video recently of an octopus making himself a door out of a coconut shell.

i am a little soft, okay. but sometimes i can't talk either. the world is like fractal light to me, and passes through my skin in tendrils. i feel certain small things like a catapult; i skirt around the big things and somehow arrive in crisis without ever realizing i'm in pain.

in 5th grade we read The Curious Incident of the Dog In The Night-time, which is about a young autistic boy. it is how they introduced us to empathy about neurotypes, which was well-timed: around 10 years old was when i started having my life fully ruined by symptoms. people started noticing.

i wonder if birds can tell if another bird is odd. like the phrase odd duck. i have to believe that all odd ducks are still very much loved by the other normal ducks. i have to believe that, or i will cry.

i remember my 5th grade teacher holding the curious incident up, dazzled by the language written by someone who is neurotypical. my teacher said: "sometimes i want to cut open their mind to know exactly how autistics are thinking. it's just so different! they must see the world so strangely!" later, at 22, in my education classes, we were taught to say a person with autism or a person on the spectrum or neurodivergent. i actually personally kind of like person-first language - it implies the other person is trying to protect me from myself. i know they had to teach themselves that pattern of speech, is all, and it shows they're at least trying. and i was a person first, even if i wasn't good at it.

plants learn information. they must encode data somehow, but where would they store it? when you cut open a sapling, you cannot find the how they think - if they "think" at all. they learn, but do not think. i want to paint that process - i think it would be mostly purple and blue.

the book was not about me, it was about a young boy. his life was patterned into a different set of categories. he did not cry about the tag on his shirt. i remember reading it and saying to myself: i am wrong, and broken, but it isn't in this way. something else is wrong with me instead. later, in that same person-first education class, my teacher would bring up the curious incident and mention that it is now widely panned as being inaccurate and stereotypical. she frowned and said we might not know how a person with autism thinks, but it is unlikely to be expressed in that way. this book was written with the best intentions by a special-ed teacher, but there's some debate as to if somebody who was on the spectrum would be even able to write something like this.

we might not understand it, but crows and ravens have developed their own language. this is also true of whales, dolphins, and many other species. i do not know how a crow thinks, but we do know they can problem solve. (is "thinking" equal to "problem solving"? or is "thinking" data processing? data management?) i do not know how my dog thinks, either, but we "talk" all the same - i know what he is asking for, even if he only asks once.

i am not a dolphin or reindeer or a dog in the nighttime, but i am an odd duck. in the ugly duckling, she grows up and comes home and is beautiful and finds her soulmate. all that ugliness she experienced lives in downy feathers inside of her, staining everything a muted grey. she is beautiful eventually, though, so she is loved. they do not want to cut her open to see how she thinks.

a while ago i got into an argument with a classmate about that weird sia music video about autism. my classmate said she thought it was good to raise awareness. i told her they should have just hired someone else to do it. she said it's not fair to an autistic person to expect them to be able to handle that kind of a thing.

today i saw a goose, and he was limping. i want to be loved like a flock loves a wounded creature: the phrase taken under a wing. which is to say i have always known i am not normal. desperate, mewling - i want to be loved beyond words.

loved beyond thinking.

"Well, this is a bad idea," Tim says, hands on his hips as he surveys the mess they’ve made in the cave.

"Nah," Danny replies, twirling his screwdriver in the air in what is probably meant to be an impressive trick to inspire confidence, except he fumbles it and it clangs to the floor loudly, "we good. If a younger version of myself hasn't come forward in time to stop me, how bad can it be?"

"Shouldn't it be the other way round?"

"What?"

"Normally, it's an older version of yourself going backwards in time to stop you, right?"

"Not in my experience."

Danny's grin is impossibly feral and a shiver runs up Tim's spine.

"This is definitely a bad idea."

how it started vs how it’s going

[literallylaezelswife]

I feel like Lae’zel asking her lover to protect her is severely under talked about in the fandom

The strong githyanki warrior, who will never admit weakness, telling her partner that she wants to be protected. Her going from seeing them as weak and inferior to seeing them as someone who can provide her safety. Seeing them as someone she can be vulnerable and soft around. Someone she can trust to save her when she gets herself in trouble and that she can trust to watch over her when she sleeps.

And they’re probably the first person she’s ever felt this way around. All of her classmates could slit her throat at any sign of weakness, her teachers could beat her for the smallest mistake. But her partner? She can make mistakes around them. She can be vulnerable without fearing a dagger to the heart.

And no one ever talks about it. It’s so good, but it’s completely ignored.
