STILES IS THE FREAKING BEST I SWEAR TO GOD!!

Even when he says that he's gonna leave Scott for dead, we all know he would NEVER leave Scott behind.

As much as he loves and respects his dad, Scott means too much to him, and he would jump in front of that bullet any day, no matter how much of a risk it was.

And while he may have stumbled a little bit (...okay, a lot bit XD), we gotta give this boy ALL the credit for thinking on his feet (which, as an aside, he was THIS CLOSE to figuring out the random keys gosh darnat. Oh well. I'm sure it'll come to him any minute now. XD).

And then the fact that the conclusion he DID come up with while thinking on his feet is something his dad already said...LITERALLY his father's son I love him.

And THEN, to top it ALL off, he just goes AFTER Rafael and I am HERE for it.

I know I'm not supposed to know what Stiles is talking about in that scene (about how Scott's dad got drunk and accidentally pushed Scott down the stairs and knocked him unconscious when he was little and that's why he left), but honestly, I think the fact that I do makes that scene soooo much better, because it just accentuates how protective of and loyal to Scott Stiles really is (and also how protective of his dad he is, 'cause he was willing to call out Rafael in that moment to not just defend Scott, but also defend his dad's honor <3).

Okay but, like, my understanding is that this happened YEARS ago, right? Like, when Stiles and Scott were KIDS.

Which means Stiles, at the mere age of, what...seven? Eight? MAYBE nine? He heard that conversation, and he held onto that for YEARS, and he didn't say ANYTHING to ANYONE, but he filed it away for a moment EXACTLY like this, where he could tell Rafael to shut the f*ck up, because he knows the truth, and Rafael is the last person that should be judging anyone for their struggles and/or parenting decisions.

Get yourself a best friend like Stiles, because holy sh*t, if that's not loyalty and love, I don't know what is. <3 <3

Anyways, as a random aside, Danny and Ethan are so cute and I love them so much and I hope they officially get back together, because I love them.

But SERIOUSLY!! Stiles is one of the best, smartest, funniest, most loyal human beings on the planet and no one can convince me otherwise.

I love this man so much. <3 <3 <3

(The little face he made at realizing he and his dad were on the same page I love him and his relationship with his dad so much. <3 <3)

Update: LEAVE ETHAN ALONE LEAVE ETHAN ALONE LEAVE ETHAN ALONE LEAVE ETHAN ALONE--

UPDATE PART II: Okay but let's not sneeze at how great of a friend Scott is too like... The way he was like "hey we don't have to do this, let's figure out this thing that's bothering you". And then the way he was sooo excited for Stiles when that girl came up and kissed him. STOP I CAN'T WITH THEM! XD <3 <3 <3

Rewatching Truman Show for the first time in a long time, and the detail that’s stuck with me this time is the set design.

The characters drive modern cars and hock modern products, but it’s all presented with a veneer of 1950s wholesome applecheeked Americana. Truman’s life is presented as an escape for the audience from the drudgery of the modern day, and the aesthetic they’ve chosen for this is the post-war economic boom. This is the simple time, the movie says. This is the good time. Doesn’t the modern day suck? Let’s go back and see our friends from the days when life was good.

And it’s a lie. Truman’s life is a lie, and the image of white picket fenced suburbia they’ve presented is a lie. It’s an elaborate construction to recreate a false memory that’s comfortable for advertisers. The movie is a satire, but it’s also a very blatant statement against the nostalgia for a golden age which never existed. It’s a lie. It doesn’t exist.

I don’t know. I’m spitballing. I’m biased because I despise mid-20th century Americana and I naturally treat it with hostility, but it’s very gratifying to see a movie kind of agree with me.

That ol’ chart of mine makes the rounds online periodically and it drives me crazy because it’s frankly not very good. So, I finally got around to remaking it.

I doubt this will get anywhere near as popular, but I wanted to make it.

Good reference for animation, comics, and for visualizing phonetics!

After months of research and development and market testing and perfecting the first item I feel confident selling online, I have realized... that it is an incredibly niche item that only a specific subset of absolute nerds would want to buy, and I will have to do a ton of explaining the basic idea over and over again before people generally get what it is I'm even selling.
