Columbo S10E4 “Death Hits the Jackpot” (1991)

Fern...spotted at 3:25? Do we think a print of a drawing counts?

Not happy with that? Well, how's a painting of a fern?

Finally, at a funeral, we get a real, albeit cut, fern.

Finally, because I'm stubborn, here's a real, live, uncut Boston fern in the ultimate combo, at 1:22:46.

JUST DROPPING IN TO SAY AGAIN

PIER

THE SWEETEST BOY EVER

Ok Byeeeee <3 <3

He says thank you. :3

[serendipnpipity]

Thank you for living your truth, @danielhowell. You've helped me live mine, too.

[illustrated YouTube notification: “Daniel Howell uploaded ‘Basically I’m Gay’”]

Five years ago today, I was lying on the couch in my family home, watching the words of a person I had grown to find pieces of myself in as he bared his soul to the world just to make somebody like me feel a little less alone.

He said something at the end of that video,

[Illustrated video screenshot of Dan saying “You are valid. It gets so much better.”]

And I’ll never forget hearing those words. Never forget drying my tears, quickly, before my parents came back. 

[Three panels: girl wiping tears from face, putting phone down, silhouette walking through front door]

See, the girl on that couch was planning far, far away futures. She couldn’t believe his words just yet, but now she could hope to.

Five years later, today, I wish I could tell her:

You don’t have to move halfway across the country to set a flag out on your desk. 

[school building and stack of books]

Your parents are coming over tomorrow to help bring you home for the summer. (They’re only an hour’s car ride away.)

[cartoon sun and car]

And see that?

[rainbow flag in a mug with a cat whiskers design]

Yeah, that’s the one decoration you haven’t packed yet. 

And that something he said at the end of the video, I still quote it to this day. 

[computer playing the Dan birthday livestream with "Misty" on a Zoom call in the corner]

Better yet, I believe it now. 

[same girl, older and with shorter hair, holding mug with flag and looking back at someone off-camera that’s saying “Ready to go home?”]

Happy five years of Basically, I’m Gay!

Super Brain Dead

3/3

Danny always hoped his soulmates wouldn’t hate him. as the experiments continued, all he could do was pray and hope that his soulmates would not hate him and curse himself for getting caught by the GIW.

They were in the middle of another experiment on him when the alarms sounded. Danny was aware of agents rushing around and yelling, but he could barely focus through the pain.

The door was busted down, and he could barely make out the members of the justice league. He mostly focused on red hood, the EO signature, toxic, but real. He winced as red hood undid some of his bindings, not noticing how red hood’s eyes went wide at the side of the injuries.

Red Hood picked him up bridal style before tapping his helmet.*Guys, I think I found Red Robin and Superboy’s soulmate* was the last thing Danny heard before he slipped off into unconsciousness.

The good kind of goths, not the rip out your jugular vein kind of goths! Not only is drinking blood messy and immoral — it's just so passe.

i feel like being in love with benjicot (davos) blackwood is a lot like “feelz” by lil peep…. just like complete and utter devotion for the person he knows is truly his. he would do anything to keep you with him; would cut down any man who dared to lay his eyes on ur pretty face.

“ i would never put a knife in her back, the love i give her is kinda creepy, but fuck it, she orders and i deliver ”

like yeah… that’s benji. he loves you so so so much. betraying you, giving you up, watching you suffer, these are thoughts that fill him with ire. he would truly do anything for you, anything you asked him to!! and sometimes it may be overbearing and concerning and extremely suffocating to feel that amount of love and devotion coming from one man. but sometimes you look at him and just know he would burn all of the seven kingdoms for you, like a true born dragon, if only u would ask.

“ baby you got nowhere to hide i’m coming for you, your parents could never fathom the levels to i adore you ”

god and if u were a bracken! pls ur actually never getting away from him and his love and his devotion. no matter how forbidden or against it ur parents may be. i mean now that he’s lord blackwood who’s going to stop him from having you, from stealing you if he must. ur poor parents trying to send you away, trying to starve off the war the comes with benjicot and his desires. the war that comes from keeping him away from you. i can imagine the day they finally yield, giving him the location of their precious daughter so he may go and steal her for himself and end the war along with it.

god he would make you his home. sigh idk just a feelz kinda love with benjicot.

Everyone always says "I'm going to make a self-depricating joke! (remembers Siffrin) Actually my friends love me and would be sad if they heard me talking like this." and that's super valid and correct!

But also what I personally took away from isat's worldbuilding in terms of how to deal with mental health issues are Mira and Isa's comments about having to Change.

Change means destruction, you might hurt people by changing yourself, including yourself. Growing around yourself little by little, until you're comfortable with yourself. Change is work.

But also you have the option of staying the same. People shouldn't force Change on you, neither should you force yourself into following perceived societal norms. You need to remember that while Changing can also hurt yourself that is not the same as Changing into someone that hurts you to be.

Celebrate who you have become, the progress you've made. You also don't need to forget the people who you used to be. In a world where Change is constantly happening, choosing to not Change is also a form of Change.

I just watched the movie bonds and shino single handedly destroyed like three warships, avenged the attack on Konoha and then he just he just walks out of the water like a goddamn bond girl in an episode of ex on the beach and i was like ???????? well i guess the movie ends here ?????????

after that I didn’t even wanna know what happened to naruto, i just enjoyed me some badass shino and sai, some mild badass shikamaru and some lazyass kakashi that did nothing the whole time, sasuke's and naruto's sexual tension was on the background after that

Columbo S10E5 “No Time to Die” (1992)

Feather leaf fern spotted at 2:19!

This episode is notable for being the only Columbo episode not to feature a murder, as it is about a kidnapping. It also features my favorite non-recurring character, Tubby Comfort. He's absolutely written to be fatphobic comic relief, but as a person of similar appearance and stature, I would love if my job was to be a criminal informant with a weirdly cuddly nickname who lounged in the sauna eating fruit all day. That sounds awesome.

[the-insomniac-emporium]

hey @k-0re remember how you made that post about music for the maid dlc. and how the different Dimitrescu members would have different music? what if I told you I did a quick improvisation based on an existing chord progression for Alcina-

anyway ignore the mid recording (it was done on my phone), I'll probably make a musescore version in a couple days (also for the daughters. probably just tiny concept samples, 30-60 seconds)

the real version would have a clearer difference between "lady d is close" and "SHE'S RIGHT THERE AND YOU ARE SCREWED"

sometimes, i think about how crazy the meoto plotline is

[kenisle]

are there any fics about the existential/body horror and everyday idiosyncrasies of being wolverine — indestructible heavy metal skeleton, knife hands, healing factor, amnesia, and eternally chained to this mortal plane cursed to watch everyone around you age and die except this one really weird guy you can’t fucking stand who also happens to be from canada — with maybe a dash of homoeroticism? or at least just minimal heterosexuality? is that too tall an order?
