Listening to this statement and I felt it in my bonessss, now I’m an eye and corruption guy don’t get me wrong but something about it just resonates so deeply with me. “He’s with the sea now” he’s home? He’s where he always belonged? He’s returned to the home from which we were all created? Being put to an endless sleep by the washing of waves over his shoulders then ears then submerging him completely before the tide pulls back out then washes over him again? Yeah alright cheers bro, I’ll drink to that.

that was so good :( poor dewy man
Omg you’re so sweet!!! I’m so glad you enjoyed it.
I’ve definitely been on a big swissdew angst kick, especially exploring dews grief with aether leaving and exploring his relationship with Swiss considering phantom. I could probably write a whole novel on my thoughts and opinions on what exactly transpired with everyone after aether left. So I’m literally kicking my feet and giggling that everyone else is enjoying reading about it too

bastille has done more for the queer community by just making all of their love songs about "you" instead of specifying a gender than taylor swift has in all of her discography. thanks for coming to my ted talk.

listen I know it's heartbreaking that Claudia dies and it's understandable to wish she didn't, but let's please not accuse the writers of fridging her. to do so is a fundamental misunderstanding of the story and is frankly insulting to the intelligence and skill of the writers of the show.
Claudia's death, and the overwhelming grief and regret her parents experience because of it, is quite literally the point of the entire story. she dies because Anne's daughter Michele died of leukemia when she was five years old and there was nothing she or her husband could do to prevent it.
writing IWTV was how Anne coped with the unimaginable loss of a parent losing her child. she created a story about a little girl that could not die and then killed her anyway. Claudia's death is a senseless, unavoidable tragedy, just like Michele's was. the grief that haunts Louis and Lestat for the rest of their lives is the same grief that haunted Anne and her husband.
so when you're accusing people of killing Claudia off to benefit a story about two men, please remember that in real life sometimes parents lose their children. please remember Michele Rice.
she's the reason Claudia exists.
she's also the reason Claudia cannot be saved.

People on here are always like "fuck capitalism, why can't things be weird anymore" and then write up a whole dissertation about how the biggest IPs need to change to be weirder.
Like, you are so close. You are so close to getting the point. "Big" IPs *can only exist because they are normal*. They will *never* be weird. They will *never* do what you want. Go find some smaller IPs. Bring back discovery. Bring back never having heard of a book before you buy it. Bring back watching obscure anime online that none of your friends know about. Bring back trying new things, even if they're bad or cheaply made. That is how you get *weird*.

Watching never stop blowing up has made me realize that 80s action movies would probably be my favorite genre if it weren't for homophobia/lack of representation being a thing.
Kingskin being a bisexual king running into his exes around every corner, characters just being fine with it when the PCs accidentally refer to the characters with different pronouns, when Jack/Paula talks about his ex husband to a bar tender and hes just like
"my ex husband is in Tampa, he got a new boyfriend :( "
and jacks like "HES GAY?" Right after talking about his ex husband.
Background characters having top surgery scars, real excited for the complicated mess that's probably gonna be Jennifer drips and Matilda Drops.
Brennan Lee Mulligan is just so aggressively an ally and I love him so much for it. That man has so much love and support in him.
