At this point I even fear getting on the pages of blogs I don't know. There's so much hostility and refusal to see other people's opinions as valid (while not necessarily agreeing with them) that it makes my skin crawl.

Like, I know the last year plus two months has been the hardest many of us have had it. But I feel that this vents out as hostility in many ways here and like... It makes me lose faith in humanity. Not only for interpersonal relationships, but also for how people treat themselves.

Anyway, I think I'll try to keep off a little. I won't log off, will still check in everyday, but I'll be deleting the app from my phone and try to keep myself from installing it again.

After I finally finish the Killian being a sub video, I think I should make a “Once Upon a Time NOT being a family show for x minutes straight”

If you ask me, Colin defending his family from delusional shippers is not something that should have been hidden behind a 6 euros (at least) payment. It should have been in the part that was shared for free on SoundCloud, because it is actually a problem Colin is facing, three whole-ass years since OUAT ended, but I guess I’m just an anti-capitalist stupid millenial ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

(not blaming Colin of course. It was big of him to speak up about it, but I know he wasn’t the one responsible for how the interview would be shared)

WHEN COLIN SAID HE PUTS ON THE PIRATE COAT TO FEEL LIKE HE’S SPECIAL AGAIN

THAT SELF DEPRECATING HUMOR THO I’M LIKE

COLIN

YOU’RE SO FUCKING SPECIAAAAAAL

I WISH I WAS SPECIAAAAAAAL

Once I get a job that pays well enough for me to actually buy the stuff I want and also move into a less toxic environment and grow some self-esteem it’s over for you bitches

I'm getting a lot of notes on my post with the Longest Johns' Leave Her Johnny 500 voices video and I didn't even expect it to get like 10 notes and be spread beyond my mutuals but 🥺🥺 I've been loving sea shanties for like ten years now and it's the FIRST time I see them getting recognized and like, can y'all imagine how it feels like that suddenly I'm not a wallflower with a weird music taste and instead I'm a hipster veteran lover of songs that people are now discovering on a wider scale

I’m looking at old convention photos and I’m thinking damn, it really bugged me a lot before but I never dared say anything because the CS fandom could be vile, and also because of my own wishful thinking that no it can’t be true, but now that I don’t give a damn I’m gonna say it;

Colin and Jen aren’t good panel partners. Jen is a speaker, she has a lot to say and the energy to share it, and good for her. Give her all the solo panels. Don’t put her with someone else, especially someone as reserved as Colin. Colin enjoys having fun and teasing his partners, and that seems to show when he’s partnered with other cast members, like Josh Dallas, or Rose Reynolds, he seems to genuinely have fun with them. When put with Jen, he just sits back and says “I agree with Jen”... and that doesn’t make for a fun duo.

I don’t know, it just feels that a lot of us actually believed they’re not making good partners in panels (not talking about how they were as scene partners) but never shared that thought because of the backlash the fandom might have given us.

When my cat tries to manipulate me into giving her more food by rubbing herself against my legs and meowing adorably I get so pissed like bitch I know you love me??? You curl up in my lap and purr like a jackhammer and you blink slowly at me and 99% of the time you walk around the house with your tail up high!! I know you love me and you love your life here!! Stop trying to use my love for you for your benefit!!

Sometimes I’m just too tempted to delete twitter and never give it any usage records from myself again

And to think it’s because I saw someone else being attacked, not even remotely close to me, that tempts me to delete my account

You know what? I’ve joked a lot about how I’ve seen some weird things for Colin’s sake. None of them compares to actually stepping foot on twitter for the sake of seeing the tweets he makes once every thousand years.

I’m joking of course... only about Colin’s responsibility in this. I’m not joking about twitter. It’s a fucking hellhole and the reasons I hate it cannot be described in a single tweet - which is, funnily enough, one of the reasons I hate it

I should make like, a meta on how Rogers smiles more and looks genuinely happy only after Tilly has moved in with him

I also still have that top ten knightrook scenes gifset series like

someone should definitely remind me, like, pester me about it

I give permission to everyone following me to actually pester me about it until I start posting that stuff

[piracytheorist]

Still not over that "Someone's just jealous they don't get to ride on the hooooooorse" line

[piracytheorist]

You know, I realized I missed something when I made the survey for the top ten knightrook scenes... I kinda missed the fact that I can't gif the entire ass scenes into one post (unless I make small gifs and combine two into one, which is... a lot of work). Like one of the choices was "Killian sings to baby Alice" but, that scene has two "sub-parts". One where he's singing to her, and one where he talks about his mother and giving the baby her name.

So adsfhhgdshfadjghfg.

tbh I'll probably end up giffing the entire scene and just posting the second part as a separate gifset as a bonus because BOTH PARTS OF THE SCENE ARE IMPORTANT, OKAY

Is anyone else in the world aware that Greece is celebrating two hundred years since the beginning of its war of independence or is it just propaganda by the news that "the whole world celebrates"?

why do I have the sudden need to smell watercolor

So it’s such a common trope in media for a character to say “No-one is going to believe me” when something weird happens to them and like... is it just me or do I feel that this is not a thing? Like, if a close friend or family member came and told me that they are experiencing something supernatural, the chances of me thinking they’re pulling a prank on me would be very slim. Like, I would immediately believe them because we trust each other, we know each other, and I’d rather risk them making a fool out of me than risk them going through that on their own. And I certainly doubt I’m the only one who’d do that, so unless those “no-one is going to believe me” characters are friendless orphans or happen to only have toxic people in their close circles it feels a bit unreal, and if they are the latter, the focus of that story shouldn’t be the person experiencing something supernatural, but how they can get out of the toxic circles they’ve found themselves in

I mean idk when the people around you don’t inspire enough trust in you for you to ask them for help with the ghost behind your mirror, maybe the ghost is a better company is all I’m saying
