i think all quiet on the western front and the lord of the rings are in direct conversation with each other, as in theyre the retelling of the same war with one saying here’s what happened, we all died, and it did not matter at all and another going hush little boy, of course we won, of course your friends came back

from the ask game!! what fascinates you about humanity?

My dear Fox, this is an excitingly impossibly huge question to answer but I will say. soap bubbles. like......... hhhhhhh I'm torn as to whether I should explore this from the beginning or the end but like

children love playing with water & bubbles (adults do too but I digress), & I was thinking the other day abt those little bubble-blowing tubes u can buy at any dollar store — hours of fun from something as simple as soap & water!! & how probably for centuries, mums & aunties & grandmas have been amusing children with suds & blowing soap bubbles for them in the course of laundry work.

it's such a unique form of play in that probably for a long time it was always a by-product of a household task, not a specific game like chase/hide & seek or a specific toy like a doll/ball. but it is a specific toy now!! staple of parties & summers!!

so like...who first thought to make it a Thing? who thought to pull it out of being an aside & into the focus of a toy shop shelf? who saw their child so amused by blowing bubbles while washing their hands, something I myself used to do even as a teenager, & thought to make this a portable experience?

that part of humanity — our endless capacity for play & fun, & our persistent potential to prioritise it, whether realised or not — is what fascinates me

idk bubbles are just such a pretty transient simple harmless thing but they bring so much joy ;-; like seeing bubbles in places where u least expect them is

actually post cancelled. what fascinates me abt humanity is this thing I just drove past on the side of the highway

#the way I thought they were shrines to car accident victims at first glance #but no. just a gnome village apparently 💀 #anyway. this got away from me #THANK U FOX 🤍🤍🤍 #ur always a joy in my inbox :) #I thought for so long abt this answer & the moment I was finally settled on it‚ I saw That #utterly stunned #the ability of humour to sneak in everywhere is also something abt humanity that fascinates me ig #don't invite me to yr funeral. I will laugh 😔 #frigidboy #asks #thanks again my friend!

i love u characters who are victims who don't show things in a way that's appealing i love u characters whos trauma leaves them with anger issues, with violence issues, with issues with connection and trust and being truthful i love you characters who don't get "better" in a way that's palatable, who don't find growth and meaning in their trauma

#characters #ALDONZA/DULCINEA FROM MAN OF LA MANCHA MY BELOVEEED #I was listening to the soundtrack again the other day & thinking how much I love her #& how cathartic it would be to perform Aldonza (the song) on stage #the sheer amount (& particular form) of trauma & violence she has endured...... god #she's nothing but sarcastic & bitter & jaded #& then here is this man‚ this wonderful delusional man‚ who is in rapture over her #treats her like a queen ADDRESSES HER like a queen #& goes on & on abt her beauty & elegance & grace #she lets herself believe it for one tiny moment ... & gets slammed back down to earth so hard #that the next time she sees Don Quixote‚ she tears him a new one T_T #The Self-Loathing Monologue of All Time. & she's not just loathing herself but also him! #for daring to tell her she was worth anything more than a piece of garbage!! #for showing her how life can be anything other than despair!!! #god. characters who've never known love & respect experiencing it for the first time & reacting with violence. GOD #& still he respects & cares for her! no matter what she calls him no matter how much she hates him! #'can't you see what your gentle insanities do to me? // rob me of anger and give me despair #blows and abuse I can take and give back again // tenderness I cannot bear' #her little voice tremble at even having to utter a word like 'tenderness' when it applies to her. I'm- #THIS MUSICAL!!!!! blowing myself up #3 minutes of loud angry violent insistence that she's worthless #& him disagreeing w her #& even while firmly declaring 'I'm no-one I'm nothing' at the end u can hear how rattled she is #she's just saying it out of habit. I think deep deep down she knows she's more than that now #it's just too hard to face even as a positive change #how dare he upend her world so abruptly & convince her she has value? how dare he ask her to accommodate such a change? #I'm sick over them. sick

Tina Turner - GoldenEye 1995

"GoldenEye" is a song written by Irish musicians Bono and the Edge from the rockband U2, and performed by American singer Tina Turner. It served as the theme for the 1995 James Bond film GoldenEye, starring Pierce Brosnan. Depeche Mode was initially approached in 1994 to sing the main theme song for GoldenEye, but were coming to the end of their Devotional Tour and could not meet the schedule. Instead, the producers got Tina Turner to agree to do the song. After being informed of Turner's involvement, Bono and the Edge were next to join, and agreed to write the song. The track was produced and mixed by British producer/remixer/composer Nellee Hooper, best known for his work with Massive Attack, Madonna, U2, and Björk. The track reached number ten on the UK Singles Chart and became a top-five hit in several European countries. "GoldenEye" was less successful outside Europe, reaching number 43 in Canada, number 63 in Australia, and number 2 on the US Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100.

"GoldenEye" was first released on the original motion picture soundtrack and the following year it was included on Turner's album Wildest Dreams. The music video for the song was directed by Jake Scott. The song has been covered by Nicole Scherzinger for the 2010 remake of the GoldenEye 007 video game.

"GoldenEye" received a total of 73,5% yes votes!

#FINALLYYY #ooh fuck yes u know I gotta have #Goldeneye #on this blog #James Bond songs r genuinely so good for being 15 & visualising AMVs on the way home from school. trust 👍 #songs #Tina Turner #James Bond #music

how to find literally any post on a blog in seconds (on desktop)

there are so many posts about ~tumblr is so broken, you can’t find any post on your own blog, it’s impossible, bluhrblub~

I am here to tell you otherwise! it is in fact INCREDIBLY easy to find a post on a blog if you’re on desktop/browser and you know what you’re doing:

url.tumblr.com/tagged/croissant will bring up EVERY post on the blog tagged with the specific and exact phrase #croissant. every single post, every single time. in chronological order starting with the most recent post. note: it will not find #croissants or that time you made the typo #croidnssants. for a tag with multiple words, it’s just /tagged/my-croissant and it will show you everything with the exact phrase #my croissant

url.tumblr.com/tagged/croissant/chrono will bring up EVERY post on the blog tagged with the exact phrase #croissant, but it will show them in reverse order with the oldest first 

url.tumblr.com/search/croissant isn’t as perfect at finding everything, but it’s generally loads better than the search on mobile. it will find a good array of posts that have the word croissant in them somewhere. could be in the body of the post (op captioned it “look at my croissant”) or in the tags (#man I want a croissant). it won’t necessarily find EVERYTHING like /tagged/ does, but I find it’s still more reliable than search on mobile. you can sometimes even find posts by a specific user by searching their url. also, unlike whatever random assortment tumblr mobile pulls up, it will still show them in a more logically chronological order

url.tumblr.com/day/2020/11/05 will show you every post on the blog from november 5th, 2020, in case you’re taking a break from croissants to look for destiel election memes 

url.tumblr.com/archive/ is search paradise. easily go to a particular month and see all posts as thumbnails! search by post type! search by tags but as thumbnails now

url.tumblr.com/archive/filter-by/audio will show you every audio post on your blog (you can also filter by other post types). sometimes a little imperfect if you’re looking for a video when the op embedded the video in a text post instead of posting as a video post, etc

url.tumblr.com/archive/tagged/croissant will show you EVERY post on the blog tagged with the specific and exact phrase #croissant, but it will show you them in the archive thumbnail view divided by months. very useful if you’re looking for a specific picture of a croissant that was reblogged 6 months ago and want to be able to scan for it quickly 

url.tumblr.com/archive/filter-by/audio/tagged/croissant will show you every audio post tagged with the specific phrase #croissant (you can also filter by photo or text instead, because I don’t know why you have audio posts tagged croissant) 

the tag system on desktop tumblr is GENUINELY amazing for searching within a specific blog! 

caveat: this assumes a person HAS a desktop theme (or “custom theme”) enabled. a “custom theme” is url.tumblr.com, as opposed to tumblr.com/url. I’ve heard you have to opt-into the former now, when it used to be the default, so not everyone HAS a custom theme where you can use all those neat url tricks. 

if the person doesn’t have a “custom theme” enabled, you’re beholden to the search bar. still, I’ve found the search bar on tumblr.com/url is WAY more reliable than search on mobile. for starters, it tends to bring posts up in a sensible order, instead of dredging up random posts from 2013 before anything else

if you’re on mobile, I’m sorry. godspeed and good luck finding anything. (my one tip is that if you’re able to click ON a tag rather than go through the search bar, you’ll have better luck. if your mutual has recently reblogged a post tagged #croissant, you can click #croissant and it’ll bring up everything tagged #croissant just like /tagged/croissant. but if there’s no readily available tag to click on, you have to rely on the mobile search bar and its weird bizarre whims)
