When all is said and done, our lives are like houses built on foundations of sand. One strong wind and all is gone.

Im enjoying the longevity of tumblrs recontextualization style of humor. a seemingly innocuous post followed by like "posts that a gnome would make" or like "are you a phone"

#the ‘I miss Vine’ one makes me laugh every time #laugh rule

#I have one #it means something important but it’s also fandom-related

i know you guys are all super into reclaiming slurs and stuff, but you can’t just go around calling random people faggots.

Fundraiser masterpost

Latest update: 28/04/2024.

This is a masterpost for the evacuation fundraisers I've vetted so far, a few other fundraisers I find trustworthy but have not been able to vet (inability to communicate with the organizer), and a few semi-completed fundraisers or fundraisers for a different purpose (like house rebuilding, or aid distribution). The numbers next to the names have no significance beyond ease of navigation for me for when I check their progress in the future. You should look at the disclaimers instead and focus on those. Occasionally I will update these with new info, including new fundraisers, and the amount of cash that's been raised. Check in regularly on the original post when you see it being reblogged. In all likelihood once its reached you it's already outdated. Also please don't overlook the Sustainable Aid options near the bottom! The brain drain is already creating problems but having another way of keeping or creating new knowledge and key members of a functioning society is important.

Tigers, which I’ve loved for longer than I can remember

Penguins

Maned wolves, which look like foxes on stilts

If you're still taking these: Top 5 Frodo scenes!!!

These are in no particular order

Volunteering to take the Ring to Mordor (books and films)

The first time he addresses Gollum as Sméagol (films, and possibly my favorite Frodo moment in the films)

When he watches the army set forth from Minas Morgul and is so overcome with despair that he weeps (books - I think we get a little hint of that in the film, but it’s much more explicit in the book)

When he is too weak to walk so he uses his remaining strength to crawl (books and films, but it’s especially impactful in the films since we have the visual)

When he says the Shire has been saved, but not for him (books and films)

your top five homoerotic movies

I’m going to do a mix of canonically gay movies and movies with varying levels of gay subtext

Moonlight (2016, Barry Jenkins)

Portrait of a Lady on Fire (2019, Céline Sciamma)

Lawrence of Arabia (1962, David Lean) - it’s about as textually gay as it could be at the time, plus Lean said the intent was for Lawrence to be “very if not entirely homosexual”

The Handmaiden (2016, Park Chan-wook) - nothing better than lesbians getting back at the men who wronged them!

Becket (1964, Peter Glenville) - Peter O’Toole said the censorship board made them insert the line about Henry II having an unhealthy and unnatural obsession with Becket, and I’m presuming that’s because they thought it was too gay

Honorable mention: Disobedience (2017, Sebastián Lelio), a movie about a lesbian romance. I’ve only seen this once, and there are things about it I don’t like (there’s a plot point that seems like a fakeout death that rubs me the wrong way), but on the whole it’s underrated, and Rachel Weisz and Rachel McAdams have terrific chemistry
