ohhh antony is carrying the show on his back 😭 https://x.com/screenrant/status/1805265919741989352?s=46
i don't want to discredit the work that writers do, especially in laying the groundwork for a character like homelander and crafting a compelling arc for him with every new season. and i'm sure they were very involved in the making of ep 4 as well, despite kripke generously giving credit where it's due here. however...
it is nice to know that antony starr has not only elevated the character with a superb performance but also made some pretty valuable contributions to the script :) obviously i'm biased but i think he is the standout of every episode. i'm throwing emmys at him

"evan, i find you adorable". adorable as in able to be adored. as in capable of being adored. as in i find you worthy of adoration. adorable, from the latin adorare (to worship) to adorabilis (in the sense 'worthy of divine worship') to the current day adorable. as in maybe if we had made it to the movies or if eddie didn't show up, i could've showed you just how much i want to worship you. as in i look at you and there is a font of adoration in my heart for you. adorable as in i flew into a hurricane with you and yet this date is a thousand times more thrilling than that. adorable as in there is a person in your building who saw me jump up and down like a little kid in the lobby after i had kissed you for the first time. adorable as in i kissed you and immediately thought fuck i could do this forever if he lets me. adorable as in i want to press kisses to your birthmark. adorable as in i spent the entirety of the days leading up to our date wondering about you, if you liked your coffee with two sugars or one. if you liked storms or if the lightning strike had put you off on them all together. if you liked cats or dogs or if you were the kind of weirdo who liked goats instead. if you thought about the kiss as often as i did. if your stomach tangled into twisted knots as saturday drew closer. if you would be agreeable to sitting in my lap. if you would blush as prettily as you did the day i kissed you. if your world also realigned when our lips met. if our orbits had matched up now that we flew into a hurricane together. if the gravitational pull between us had finally been too strong for either of us to resist that night in your loft. or maybe, more simply, adorable as in, "evan, i find you adorable."

Every time I speak up against trans/gender ideology, I'm terrified of being harassed and doxed like many other women have been. I'm terrified of being stalked and cyber bullied like countless other women have been for sharing our opinions on our own reality and sex. This is not normal. I and other women should not feel terrified talking about female oppression and biological sex. The fact that we feel this scared in 2023 talking about feminism because it will offend men, blows my mind. Seeing trans people on tumblr and twitter make violent comments like 'shoot a bullet through every terfs pussy' or 'every terf should get raped' or 'women should stfu about oppression because it's terfy' and the fact that no one calls them out and the minute they do, they're instantly doxed and bullied off by being called a bigot? When trans people make comments like this towards women, it's no wonder, we do not want to share our spaces with you people. Our concerns are valid and not born out of bigotry or transphobia like so many claim it to be - it is an exact reaction to the violence shown by tra/trans women. At the end of the day, trans ideology is more about male entitlement, male violence and further oppressing the female sex.

see i don't ship kimjean but i do find the concept extremely funny specifically because my brain automatically jumps to "ok and where is harry". realistically if kim and jean became a formal Thing and harry isn't in on it, he will NOT take it well. harrys all "oh im becoming a better person im doing better im healed :)" and then he finds out that his new and only bestie is going out with his depressed ex that hates him and is like well this simply won't stand. i am uncomfortable when we are not about me? like kim and jean are trying to just leave to go to dinner or whatever and harrys like "have fun :)" and kim is like "thanks" and harry just stands there like "and my invitation? 😊" and kim is like what do you mean. and when harry realizes this isn't a new throuple thing and he's not invited he does NOT shut the fuck up about it. harry is like you OWE me you wouldn't have met without me. please let me come on the date please please please i'll be your butler

not sure how this works but
mafia front restaurant au maybe?
WIP Wednesday (4/24) | Mafia Front Restaurant AU (Part 145)
During his next turn, Neil puts down a card all by its lonesome and Andrew stabs his finger at it. “What is that?”
“I’m playing my eight off yours.” Neil says, gesturing to Andrew’s half of the table.
“You didn’t mention that in the demonstration. Cheater, cheater.”
“It slipped my mind.” Neil says. Then he moves his cards around and puts down a couple of jacks with a two. “By the way, twos are wild. Count as anything.”
“You are very good at withholding useful information.” Andrew mutters. He’d just put that two down a second ago and Neil snatched it up like it was a brick of gold.
“The FBI thought the same, I’m sure.” Neil says. Then he bites the inside of his cheek.
“FBI? What ever could they want with this family-friendly restaurant?”
“That was before the restaurant actually. And it doesn’t matter.”
“Hm. How rude to mention something so interesting and drop it.” Andrew luckily draws a two and plays it between a jack and a king. Now there’s only one card left in his hand. “Uno?”
Neil laughs. “Not quite. Throw it down and the hand is over.”
“What then?”
“We count our points. Don’t worry about it. I’ll do it for you.”
“No, thanks. I don’t trust you.” Andrew says, making Neil laugh.
“Smart.”
“How do I count them?”
“It’s five points for everything between two and ten. Ten points for tens and royalty. Wild twos are what they’re played as. You take what’s left in your hand off of what’s on the table and that’s your score.” Neil explains in a flurry that almost has Andrew’s head spinning. But he twists it back into place and soaks it all in.
“What about aces?” Andrew asks, since Neil left them out of the lineup.
Neil huffs out a breath. “They’re fifteen points each.”
“Like pulling teeth.” Andrew tuts. But he counts up his points quickly, then Neil’s. “Oh, I’m winning. How about that?”

My friend just got back from a week tour of Italy and I am so envious that he was able to go. All he could talk about was the food compared to shitty USA restaurants(understandable tbh) and all I could think of was the beauty in my phone that loves sports and incest fic and museums and being gay🥺
ANON IF YOU'RE EVER IN MY NECK OF THE WOODS HMU I'LL TAKE YOU OUT FOR COFFEE
