Just a little Parma ham cured by Italian monks and some cave-aged gruyère, and of course I make my own fig mustard.

hey you guys → season one

Tørsö, Home Wrecked from the single of the same name (2021).

Meaningless lives

In the sea of the city

No empathy in sight

Just self-pity

Salt in the wounds of the people

Of this town

Never questioning

If we need you around

These streets existed before

Progress isn't for anyone, it benefits you

Benefits you

Benefits you

Wrecked everything in your path

Histories you'll never understand

Never questioning

If we need you around

These streets existed before

Progress isn't for anyone, it benefits you

Benefits you

Benefits you

You're presence

Turns everything stale

Never questioning

If we need you around

These streets existed before

Progress isn't for anyone, it benefits you

Benefits you

Marvel celebrated the Amazing Spider-Man's 200th issue with a double sized instalment with a cover date of January, 1980. Spider-man was able to make good on his past when he helped a security guard who turned out to be the one he didn't help on the fateful night that his Uncle Ben was murdered. Not only did he encounter the guard again, but he was once more put into conflict with the burglar he didn't stop who killed his Uncle. This time an enraged Spider-Man scared him till he died of a heart attack. ("The Spider and the Burglar... A Sequel," Amazing Spider-Man 200#, Marvel Comic Event)

I think Peter Laird should’ve sold the TMNT franchise to a more noble company. Honto nii!! Even his and Kevin Eastman’s 1986 character creation, Complete Carnage, is older than the creation of Venom and the other Symbiotes.

I’ve hated Michael J. Fox, Matthew Broderick and Eric Stoltz as Peter. There are so many people who looks like Peter Parker and Matt Dillon is one of them. He looks exactly like Ron Frenz Peter, Brooke Shields looks like Romita Sr MJ and Keith Gordon would make a perfect Harry Osborn especially with his performance in Christine with the character known as Arnie Cunningham.

Submission message: howdy, would like to submit keith and lance from voltron (lmao)

Submission message: BBC Sherlock and Moriarty / BBC Sherlock and John Watson

Additional propaganda: Now Keith and Lance on the other hand was a whole fucking mess that they then shoehorned in an hetero romance to try and "fix it" but by lord it was bad, everything about voltron is so fucking bad

Anyway this is my Klance propaganda : They were actually bait

Klance's queer baiting by the team was the worst!! We had to deal with NETFLIX ALSO GETTING IN ON THE QUEER BAITING!! If you searched up Kkance during the times for season 6-8, the SHOW WOULD POP UP. The directors would make jokes about it being canon, even Lance's VA got in the joke!

Their queer baiting was the worst for anyone who was even looking for an ounce of queer rep in that show. The only queer rep we got was a man who died after not even 5 minutes on screen, and shoehorned in the credit scene of a gay wedding of a character that was neither Keith nor Lance.

I do not know Agatha and Sophie, so I can't argue that klance was bigger bait or not, I just know voltron was mean lmao. the creators said stuff like "lance will be someone's first choice!" (meaning NOT ending up in a relationship with allura bc she very much chose another guy over him) and heavily implying he would be Keith's 1st choice (or a guy in general bc of point number 2). point number 2: they also released official art showing how super cool and diverse the main cast was! race! gender! LGBT - they had shiro (who was......canon gay but that's a whole other can of worms) and lance hold the sign with LGBT on it and then did absolutely nothing with that w lance at all (he hit on allura, so obvi he's not gay, but at least bi or smt) (UNLESS you count the scenes where he's flirty with keith). I just remember going into the last few seasons being like "klance probably won't be happen be honest with yourself there's like no queer kids shows!! but damn like it so could tho!!! because of how much it's been teased both in the show and by showrunners like I can't have no hope with the way the producers talk about it!" lmao I should have had no hope, but i genuinkey believed there was a possibility it could happen. and actually I discovered after the fact that i think one of the writers for the show who was the main advocate for klance (they had a lot of diff writers for eps, which led to lots of character butchering but ANYWAY) left not terribly long into the show I believe bc he didn't like the direction it was moving in and didn't want to be tied to the show anymore. so it's not like fans just made klance up either - it was written into earlier episodes with the hope and plan to continue developing later, and then just nothing ever happened with it besides INTENSE teasing it to keep queer fans around. esp after shiro's relationship was literally only a flashback and then his fiance thing or whatever got blown up before we even got to watch him interact w shiro as we knew him in present time in s7, so I think they kept being like hmmm klance and the stuff about lance being a first choice before s8 to keep ppl around. also esp bc klancers made up such a big portion of the fan base. then they made a horrible szn and ended it w a flashforward to shiro marrying some random background character who maybe had 1 line? I just remember hitting the flashforward and being like uhhhh who is this dude??? but they did that to hit those diversity points wow first gay marriage in a cartoon or smt idk it doesn't count to me really. so anyway voltron in general is queerbait lol but klance is because it started out as a legit possibility and then they said sike! but only maybe sike bc u guys are mad at us burying our guys in s7 so maybe klance could still happen haha okay now we're serious no it's not happening. anyway I think klance is p bad queerbait and a vote for them is a valid vote, not just u liking the ship.

#im sorry but johnlock is a household name in ther queerbait trenches

I don't know much about blaze runner, but this website made me endure Johnlock FOR YEARS, that ship makes me so fucking angry, and it's so much bait, the whole fucking show is just 4 kinds of bait in a trenchcoat trying to pass as something good, and Tumblr(and the rest of the goddamn world) ate it up like a five course meal. So anyway that's why I'm voting Johnlock

Tørsö - Everyone Is Sick & Pigeonholed, from Sono Pronta A Morire (I'm Ready To Die)( 2015).

can't fix that brain. just give it drugs. half the population needs to feel numb. years of abuse washed down the drain. sedate us all, so we can't feel real pain. captivated by outdated words. don't look to yourself. everyone is sick. there's no profit in health.

policing the parts that are too small to see. taking much more and i'll just want to scream. walls closing in. can't catch a break. wise up - it suffocates me. easy to snap. break over a knee. breaking the mold. can't have your way. wise up - it suffocates me. emasculate. de-feminize. lay it to rest. let it go.

Okay I NEED to know what the current most popular slash ships are, being on tumblr just feels like slash fandom is dying out, and I'd like to look up some ships because even if I don't like them, following other slash shippers feels so much nicer than seeing people bash them all the time.

On AO3, the m/m category is a tag like any other.

That means you can go directly to that tag and look at the sidebar, either in general or filtered for the past year. (No need to rely on those faulty ship stats.)

Broadly, the really massive juggernauts are still going, chugging along on fanon long after their canons have ended or gone to shit. A bunch of fandoms that younger people like are huge. And a lot of older people who used to only be into Western fandoms fell for The Untamed a few years ago and are now into lots of other danmei and BL fandoms. Thai dramas seem to be really heating up lately.
