lisa frankenstein and jennifer's body both have an inviting traumatic incident and i think the way that both of the rest of the movies are centered around how two teen girls react to it is soooo choice. with lisa it's all about being changed to be unacceptable to society, to have something fundamentally wrong with you and unable to be fixed. and w jennifer it's all about continuing to pretend everything is fine, the internal normalization and the moving on too fast in a way that leads you to becoming further from yourself.

5.10 into the woods & 6.10 wrecked - they both show up in the other’s bedroom (in black), wake them up, & take them to someone buffy cares about who is into something seedy. they turn around while the other changes, flustered by their nudity.

all goofing aside I genuinely don't understand the urge to reimagine Taylor Allison Swift as a secretly queer icon when the pop music scene(TM) is like. literally overflowing with women who actually like women. Gaga and Kesha and Miley and Halsey are right there. Rina Sawayama and Hayley Kiyoko and Rebecca Black and Kehlani and Victoria Monét and Miya Folick if you're willing to get slightly less top 100. Janelle and Demi for them nonbinary takes on liking girls. like what are we doing here. like I'm not even saying you can't enjoy Taylor but why would you hang all your little gay hopes on her.

I've been spending some quality time on the Discworld lately. And upon re-reading some of the books about The Watch, I had to draw me some Lady Ramkin. No offence to the official illustrators, they're great artists and all, but I could never see what I see when I read when I look at any of the artwork out there. So I made my own.

1. Sybil Ramkin wearing a black dress & black wig, and some family diamonds, looking like the night sky. And winking at Vimes.

2. "It's my bloody dragon!"

3. Almost certain that there won't be any scale growth. Almost.

if you like a piece of media that is good eventually youll more or less run out of things to say about how good it is but if you like a piece of media that is objectively pretty mediocre but also somehow deeply compelling thats how the demons get you

Hi there. May I ask what you studied in college?

I got a BFA in illustration, with a creative writing minor.

we still get immediately shoved out of our immersion in tv shows or films when The Girl find a dead body and immediately shrieks - we just don't find it realistic because we're pretty confident most people would gasp rather than shriek (i.e. sharp inhale rather than sharp exhale) and it also feels unnecessarily (and predictably) misogynistic too, as men encountering corpses almost never do the same on screen

also of course please do tell us if you've actually encountered a corpse unexpectedly, because tumblr is absolutely a place where some people have done this thing and we love a good anecdote

suddenly imagining "burst into song" as a potential response

#I’ll say gasp #but from personal experience it’s less a noise and more… a startled freezing

you can be both an ethereal faerie dream girl and a horrid little dirt gremlin creature. the duality of woman
