You are my daaaaad

You’re my dad!!

✨Boogie woogie woogie✨

What a thing it is, to fall in love, to want to know everything there is to know about a person and yet, at the same time, to find the smallest detail—a blade of loose skin peeling from the lower corner of the fingernail—entirely overwhelming, too lovely to bear.

Oh no now I wanna write something with this show. My million unfinished drafts are screaming at me currently

trying to write more than 100 words in one go is getting so damn hard lately 😭😭😭

The Bent-Neck Lady remains one of the most devastating and exquisite episodes of television ever

Do you think that they explored each others bodies while in the games because we don’t know how long the two been there for but it was probably a good long while so I have a feeling that they explored, a lot actually.

Like something in my brain convinces that they definitely would fuck each other but that’s unfortunately my batshit stupid theory and my headcanons of them being sapphic are getting in the way

I just realized something:

The Red Room was a reading room for Olivia, a game room for Steve, a family room for Shirley, a dance room for Theo, and a tree house for Luke.

They never once show or mention a room Nell has to herself, even though she's arguably the most connected to the House besides Olivia. She only asks for presents for her siblings. She only writes about the others. She's always there for everyone else. And she never gets anything in return.

UR MIND. AUGH. pov hill house can't give you anything bc all you've ever wanted was for your siblings to be happy. god. god.

I just have to say. I think one of the most beautiful pieces of cinema, one of the most beautiful moments in film or television that I have ever seen, is the moment when The Captain sees his own personal ghost of Havers leaving as the opening theme to the 2001 Space Odyssey plays in the background

i finished the first draft of the last chapter of my fic .... its. its all written now. the whole thing. there are no more chapters to write. what the FUCK .

Emotionally I’m still back with season 1 Edward holding two champagne glasses for himself and Nell (wedding foreshadowing anyone?) and then looking at her like that, like he was just so softly romantically drawn to her… and next thing he’s having sexi with Lexi? Lexi and Edward throwing barbs at each other could have been a running gag, maybe leading up to a platonic* friendship or even some one off sex a bit further down the line where they choose to remain friends, but this was. Abrupt. All that potential Lexi/Edward hilarity is ruined now. It can’t be undone. This show feels a little too earnest in the wrong places. Use your actors wisely! Lexi/Edward could have been comedic gold.

Thanksgiving (2023)

Summary: Plymouth, Massachusetts is terrorised by an axe murderer in a John Carver mask at Thanksgiving.

A bloody thrill ride that provokes many laughs and also vindicates my defence of Eli Roth films.

Rating: 4.25/5
