Ok I'm sorry but this is like literally making me nuts cause the more I watch IASIP the more I realize this is Legit Charlie and Dennis everytime they interact for more then 15 seconds

#i take Dennis ' hate of loud noises and lack of social cue awarness/emotional dysregulation #and Charlie's Misinterpretations of social clues as well as his chaotic and sporadic energy #and i mash then together in a big cup #and consume it #they have a lot more un common than i thought initially lmao #i cannot express how much i love the fact that they are simultaneously So good and So bad at masking its beautiful #i find these rat men so relatable #charlie Kelly #dennis reynolds #iasip #charden ?#mayhaps charden

can you speak to sexual vs aesthetic attraction a little more, regarding bnf!crowley? i absolutely love ace crowley as an ace person myself but i struggle to differentiate the two.

especially with ARMS, ANATHEMA because i think i might feel similarly to crowley -- correct me if im wrong -- in appreciating things about people without like?? wanting to have sex with them about it?

sorry if this didn't make sense.

YEAH it's so hard to describe but aesthetic attraction makes me, like, clench my fists and scream. it gives me the same feeling as watching "ultra satisfying compilation!" videos where the head of a vacuum cleaner fits perfectly between a couch and a wall. like. YES. ffffff yeah. excellent. gonna have a good day now. everything is good because i'm lookin at this.

#ask a rat #ghost scribbles #this is what i mean whn i say i want to bite something #or im like #lickin my screen #it's just so good it makes me LOUD #bnf au

my favorite scene in the great mouse detective is when they showed basil and ratigan having hardcore gay sex mousetrap bondage

I THINK I'M GONNA BE SICK !!!!!!!!!!!!!

also watson is there (he's in the cuck chair)

Also it has occurred to me basil just “takes it” cuz he wants to be the bigger man (mouse) and convince Ratgan he’s not bothering him. but it really comes off like. Homosexualismo

#suggestive #sighs so loud #GET A ROOM YOU TWO.#im not making it any worse than it already is this is just what happens in the movie.#basigan #basil x ratigan #ratigan #there it is #i would feel bad maintagging this #analysis #im not making a seperate account for this. you're going to have to live with it.#gay rats

I sent my dad (he’s a larrie) screenshots/the story of what happened today at H’s show (the unhinged bluegreening). And he told me to “stop larrying & get a job”. I can’t believe he doesn’t take my work as a full time clown seriously🤡

Tonight we will be fundraising for humanitarian aid for the Palestinians under Israeli bombardment in occupied Gaza.

Lizzie will be streaming Planet Zoo from 5pm GMT till as late as people want. Donations and spreading awareness keep the stream running!

Our main charity of choice is Medical Aid for Palestinians

However we recognise many are concerned that insignificant aid is getting into Gaza, and would rather donate to activist organisations. Here are some we suggest in the UK:

Palestine Solidarity Campaign

Stop the War Coalition

Donations of money or your time to activist groups in your country are encouraged! There is no obligation to donate but we hope to encourage and facilitate it <3
