i'm genuinely having so much fun writing a jock protagonist. can't believe i never tried this before. all these years i've been limiting myself needlessly

you cant ever let yourself forget what it felt like to be 15. how adults treated you. being treated without a shred of respect because people think youre too young to have thoughts and feelings of your own. the lack of autonomy. you cant ever forget that because if you do you might become the kind of adult who treats kids like theyre not people

I have no real reason for it besides personal opinions and some half-formed knowledge, but I think bottled water should be illegal*

*except for emergency purposes or in places where safe running water is unavailable

remember when you used to be able to play snake with the… hold on what’s it called

hmm. don’t think i’ll be calling it that. anyways i was gonna say remember when you could play snake with the buffering circle on youtube but. now i have other concerns

the humble "like" is oft mocked despite what it does for us. "like, three people" is a vastly different statement from "three people". "and i was like 'what the fuck'" is vastly different from "and i said 'what the fuck'". i love you "like" and anyone who says you make people sound stupid will be killed on sight

Truly love how every Star Trek has a canon sex scene/episode/something that is just absolutely bonkers insane. TOS has amok time and spock and kirk rutting in the sand in front of like the high queen empress grandmother of Vulcan. TNG has Tasha and Data getting drunk off space virus and the reveal that Data has a “fully functional” cock that he puts to very good use in the second goddamn episode. DS9 has odo fucking the leader of a facist movement for three days so hard that he lets rom get almost executed. VOY has threshold. ENT has archer curing his ptsd by fucking his ex girlfriend on top of a mountain. There’s never been a franchise like it really truly deeply.

I don't play gacha games, but I'm in online spaces which are adjacent to gacha fandoms, so every so often I'll pop open my notifications and see a thread where the comments are like "ooh, step on me, daddy", and the post to which those comments pertain is a drawing of a waifish anime boy being manhandled by a second waifish anime boy.

people who only use conventional social media are so funny bc they’ll casually be like “can I see your tumblr??” are you Insane. this is no instagram or twitter. this is my vault of secrets

With this preface, what's the bit about the crusades you want to talk about most? (And is it Venice's influence on the Fourth Crusade, because they're the reason the Fourth Crusade was as wild as it was)

I hate how much modern political baggage and loaded narratives there are about the Crusades because I honestly think they're a fascinating period and historical phenomenon but I can't say I'm interested in the Crusades without people thinking I'm a white supremacist or christian nationalist.

i am obsessed with this moment from what we left behind. ira steven behr is basically like, "yeah so were they buddies? ^w^" and andrew robinson in a completely deadpan, 100% serious tone just says "they fucked." he doesn't hesitate, he doesn't miss a beat. he believes in garashir with his heart and soul and that is just so incredibly awesome

I wish I could find the original post but many years ago I was crashing at a high school friends house and he had me sleeping on some couch cushions that unfolded into a “bed,” except the cushions kept shifting and separating as you slept on them. So I had this elaborate dream that everyone on the planet had at some point been forced to sleep at my friends house, and the situation with the cushions separating was a single common experience that every living human had. And world peace was achieved through a movement called “push them together,” accompanied by a motion like pressing your open hands together as if to pray. Rock stars were doing it on stage, politicians were signing historic peace accords and doing the “push them together” motion, it saved the whole world
