In no universe should Louis de Pointe du Lac be lighting his own cigarettes❗️

no offence but the reason tumblr is “dying” is, well, yes, of course the cursed like/reblog ratio and the change in user behaviour (because of people being used to how instagram and tiktok work) BUT also the lack of weekly shows. i say it with my whole chest, they don't produce captivating and engaging stupid weekly tv shows anymore because streaming killed that so you have spikes of activity here when Something happens in general fandom or up to three days after a new season of whatever drops and then it's a wasteland. this is obviously an old woman yelling at a cloud missing supernatural and the vampire diaries and pretty little liars and all these other shows type of post but honestly give me back weekly tv shows where i have something to watch for 40 minutes almost every day of the week after work so then i can read and reblog it on tumblr give it back for the sake of my sanity

friendly reminder that India didn’t even have diplomatic relations with Israel till the 90s and had previously denied them visas. supplying them with drones in 2020s is a frighteningly short time for our government to change the fabric of our state.

this clip will be playing on loop at my funeral

watching ilia go viral among people who aren’t actively following figure skating is wild. it’s like your neighbor barging into your house while it’s on fire and saying they love what you’ve done with the place.

sydney and carmy established relationship headcanons:

carmy’s a pet name guy. he’s been weaned on pet names his whole life (‘bear’ ‘sugar’ one could argue ‘cousin’). he uses the typical ‘baby’ for syd, which she loves, but one morning she walks into the office and upon seeing her carmy murmurs a “hey honey” and she gets flashes of a kitchen with a window over the sink, an herb garden, something warm and expanding and joy joy joy

they get found out by the rest of the staff at family. well, it’s a series of family dinners. they start sitting next to each other, then carmy’s arm is on the back of her chair and syd’s rubbing his back after he chokes on some rapini. what confirms it for everyone though happens on a lull in the conversation so everyone hears it. sydney needs something from the kitchen and as she’s getting up, for the bit, carmy motions to scoop the last piece of marcus’ take on a pandan chiffon cake out of her plate. she turns to him with a quickness and a huge fake grin and says “carmen, I will literally fucking kill you” as she backs away, to which carmy laughs (laughing!? carmy?!). then he puts his own slice on her plate. richie and nat share a look and the noise at the table comes roaring back to life before carmy realizes it even left. shouldn’t spook those bears.

they move in together and both feel really good with sharing everyday life with someone else. they go to farmers markets and change the garbage under the sink and get a drawer for carmy’s vintage denim. they leave notes on the fridge, much like they do on the whiteboard at work. there’s photos and take-out menus and also vague post-it notes from syd like ‘quail eggs!!!!!! not real’ or ‘break into 45th and Syracuse – man in farmer hat (durian connect??)” and lame weird inspirational quotes from carmy “There’s no one thing that’s true. It’s all true❤️” and sydney’s like what and just thinks they’re funny and doesn’t really make sense but loves him a lot

when carmy can’t sleep he makes sure the blankets are warm around syd and hangs out by the open window for a smoke. he doesn’t smoke as much as he did before and he’s working on cutting it down. sometimes syd wakes up and comes out the bedroom to find him and says “carmy” and sleepily perches on his lap, arm around his shoulder and curls her head into the crook of his neck. her fingers hold onto his gold chain and he stubs out his cig and plays with her hair instead.

no one likes age gaps the way they used to :/

u all need to wake up!!!!!! fight back!!!!!!!

you people don’t even sexualize Gerard anymore what has happened to this once glorious app

one thing I hate about watching supernatural like ten years too late is that I have to watch this stupid show for the first time in an era where there's no porn on tumblr. I can only imagine the amount of J2 lookalike gifs people were trafficking back then

about age gap fics

before writing an age gap fic I (@notjoelmiller) am going to legally require you to write a paper (8-10 pages, double spaced, 12 font, Times New Roman) about how your fic isn't just romanticizing predation and fetishizing youth/innocence. If you can't then i will be asking you to rewrite your fic. This especially includes step father and dad's best friends fics.

There should be no fic where your "legal" character has the emotional maturity of a 13 year old. Write an age gap fic- I really don't care. But in doing so you need to be mindful of what you're putting out. It may not seem like it means a lot, but this type of content has been popping up more and more recently, and I fear for the slippery slope that fandoms may be going down.

Making sure that we're protecting minors through 18+ warnings and blocking underage/ageless accounts isn't the only step that we need to take online to protect minors when making sexual content. As writers we should not be publishing materials that fetishize youth. While it's not an immediate way to protect minors online, it is something that is important (at least to me), to ensure that we are making the internet and the greater world safe for the youth.

Stay down

Anyway...

Mike is an extremely complex and interesting character. He has fears, insecurities, trauma. He has his own motivations and his own reasons for doing things. He has obvious mental health issues. Like extremely obvious. He has an - at the very least - uncomfortable home life. His parents are in a loveless marriage and he seems to know it. He has an inferiority complex. He has an extreme fear of abandonment. Honesty is extremely important to him, which is ironic, considering he is constantly lying to himself. He's queer in the 80s and that terrifies him. He's in love with Will and that terrifies him. He's an important character and he's multifaceted. He happens to have struggles similar to other characters, they just present differently. The acknowledgement of that is not a dismissal of any other character. It is simply an acknowledgement.

just got punched in my fucking gut by feelings
