When cats lie on their backs and look at you upside down with their little vampire tooth sticking out reblog if you agree
I don't know who needs to hear this but liking something in fiction doesn't mean anything about who you are as a person.
Liking a male character doesn't make you less of a lesbian, liking a villain doesn't mean you agree with them or condone their actions, finding something awful like murder to be intriguing doesn't mean you condone it or romanticize it.
Things appeal to people for different reasons. Maybe I like that male character because I relate to his backstory of being abused or his backstory of losing his entire family. Maybe I like that villain because I empathize with what started them on the war path and find it interesting that they never stopped where a normal person would. Maybe I like that character doing something horrific because of the morbid curiosity that sometimes people do inhumane things and fiction is a safe way to explore the worst sides of humanity.
Or maybe I just like how they look aesthetically, or I want to look like them, or I find the sound of their voice soothing.
If something isn't for you, it's fine. If something is for you but it doesn't match up with who you are as a person, that's also fine. I find there's an increasing attitude where people are only allowed to like fictional characters and storylines that match up with their real life 100%. Which to me defeats the purpose of fiction. It's a means to explore things outside of the self, and sometimes you'll find things you do relate to that you didn't expect to. And I just think policing what people can or can't like stifles that exploration and potentially self discovery.
need a bi4bi t4t m/f pairing where the girl is a giant freak and not in the "cute manic pixie" way but in the "unethical experiments in my fucked up laboratory" way and the guy is a golden retriever who thinks he can fix her. and he brings her cute bento lunches and she's like "bradley shut up put on your fucking gloves and hold this possum down so i can graft these giant grasshopper legs to it"
impusively kissing! kissing when laughing! kissing cheeks to say thanks! kissing noses! kissing foreheads! kissing hands! kissing wrists! kissing temples! kissing fingertips! lazy kissing! goodbye kisses! see you later kisses! wait for me kisses! be right back kisses! that is so stupid but i love you kissing!
This with the time they used a real knife instead of a prop and jensen ended up accidentally stabbing jared in the thigh.... starring in supernatural is an extreme sport
the time they trapped their leads in a room with 65000 live bees
and then didn't use the take and eventually decided on cgi bees
our friend's daughter is at the age where she is extremely chatty and speaking in full sentences, and i love kids' use of language.
apparently all strangers used to be "ladies," but now they are "neighbors." since they speak english exclusively at home, "neighbors" speak german; it was very distressing to hear her mom speak german once, because, in her words, "you're not a doctor or a neighbor!"
When learning how to talk, each one of my 3 sons went through a phase where I was the only person they said "She" for. Obviously, SHE was Mom, and HE was the rest of the world
Three sons, and I was the only female in the household (dog was male too).
i love the idea of a mode of language where the human noun classification system is “one’s own mother” and “everyone else”
I realized I never posted these here on tumblr! 2020 did unspeakable things to my mind and body…I staggered away from lockdown with a whole pitch of how I would make an animated Cats adaptation. I got the whole thing up here *taps skull*—it would be Very Good. I can’t think about it too much lest I awaken my sleeping obsession…still want to finish Old Deut and Macavity one of these days.
Fun fact: The term "Jellicle Cat" is actually the cats’ mishearing of the term "Dear Little Cat" (this gives me much joy)
