The funniest thing that happened today was when the fire alarm went off at work and I had to go running through the building. So when I hear the apartment the alarm is apparently coming from I thought to myself, "Huh, I know for a fact that apartment is empty." And then after I ran back to it I thought, "Huh, I'm pretty sure I just heard Nathan the maintenance guy go in one of these apartments in this hall." And I thought, "Well I hope he's handling the fire in there!" And then when the person with the keys couldn't get the door open I actually called his cell phone to try to ask him to open the door. I'm sure most of you have caught on at this point, but I absolutely hadn't, so when we finally got the door unlocked and Nathan said, "Good job guys, you knew what to do! This is the fastest response we've had in a while," I was just like

Holy shit el goonish shive is still going?
hell yeah it is - the story even makes sense still!
(possibly for given values of sense? i can follow it pretty easily but i have been reading it for a solid fifteen years or so and periodically do a reread, so, you know, it’s conceivable that the story is not as easy to follow as i think of it)

Was going through my old bookmarks and stumbled on my avengers/mcu ones and u know? At this point there needs to be a tag for 2011 era avengers fandom. Just canon divergent from there. Let the avengers live in the tower and be domestic and soft and occasionally have to deal w some baddies. I am in fact talking about the first season of avengers assemble (2013).

nora going from writing an ace-spec main to a (probably allosexual) bi main, and the difference is so chef's kiss. they're both disasters don't get me wrong, but jean having attraction in his inner monologue even with the trauma he's been through implies to me that neil's demisexuality has absolutely nothing to do with his trauma. hilarious in retrospect because, if i remember correctly, neil in his inner monologue basically blames his lack of sexual attraction on his mother's abuse the few times he kissed girls when he was on the run, but he doesn't have a single sexual thought until andrew lets him in on his feelings in book three,,, meanwhile jean's out here actively fighting his bisexuality like his life depends on it (he thinks it does) (he'll learn it doesn't eventually)

You know what I want to see, I want to see more of Steve, Eddie, and Robin being 1980s small town kids from Indiana, by which I mean;
Robin is The Source of Gay Knowledge purely because her parents host Hippie Christmas and she managed to sneak away to find a neat bookstore in Indiana once. 
Her knowledge is not in depth. It's patchy, woven together through rumors, stories she heard or things she picked up from her parents' old pictures. She's got a handful of zines, one book, and some movies she managed to order for Family Video behind Keith's back.
She acts like she's Queen of the Queers because in Hawkins she pretty much is.
(Max and El ask her what a lavender marriage is once, something they overheard snooping around. 
Robin confidentially answers that it's code for when one woman dresses up as a man, fooling officials into wedding two woman.
She does not live this down two years later when they find out what it actually means.) 
Eddie doesn't spend every weekend in Indianapolis. 
Gas is expensive, his busiest days of his "job" is Friday and Saturday, and he has no fucking clue what the hanky code is. 
He's wearing that bandana because Metallica front singer James Hetfield has one on all their tour posters. 
Eddie does make it down to a gay bar though, by accident. Rick needed some back up for a shady deal. Promised Eddie a boatload of free drugs to sell if he agreed to just stand there and look mean. 
He was warned the bar they were meeting in was 'weird' and to not 'freak out' --which Eddie thought was hilarious given his nickname and general appearance, but whatever.
He doesn't understand when they get there, because it's just a bunch of hot men with hanky's in their back pockets everywhere.
Then he sees two women kissing and it clicks. 
He can't out himself in front of Rick, but one of the bartenders playfully dresses him down for his own hanky, letting him know all about the code and teasing him through his embarrassment. 
He's got an offer to come back and learn what color and which pocket his hanky should actually be in, a prospect Eddie was salivating at until Chrissy Cunningham up and died on his ceiling.
(He still wore the hanky, because the feeling of that bartender tugging it out and stuffing it back in might be the closest thing he's ever had to sex and he absolutely wants a repeat. 
He's young and horny, sue him.) 
Steve Harrington may not be academically smart but he's not dumb. 
He figured out a while back that the basketball team as a unit probably crossed the queer line more than once--or at least it did before Hargrove came in. 
( Brad Handly for example, went around slamming kids into lockers and screaming slurs like a fucking movie villain one Monday because the varsity team got dead drunk at Laura's party on Sunday and hey, look, there weren't that many girls there, okay?
They all had fucking hands and mouths. Everybody but Tommy was single and hot to trot. Nothing gay about it.
Its not even like they were kissing or treating each other like chicks. It was just Brad's first time and they got to tease him later for overthinking it. 
Dude graduated soon enough after and given Steve was on the team as a sophomore, he hadn't thought about the guy and why he might be freaking out so bad in years.) 
Robin's entire panic attack at Starcourt, and a few more after had Steve replaying that whole incident. Reframed it a bit, and, yeah.
In retrospect that had been extremely gay, actually. 
It sat with him a lot easier than he'd thought it would. Partially because of Robin, but mostly because that's just who he was.
Stranger things had happened to Steve and this one didn't want to kill, maim or otherwise eat him, so it got filed under 'interesting facts he should never tell his parents if he wanted to keep his trust fund' and then he went about his day. 
(Or he tried too, anyways.
It caught up to him when Eddie and Robin somehow figured out the other was queer and dragged him along to some bar Eddie had a standing invitation at, with demands for Steve to do what he did best.
Babysit.
Their magical trip was utterly destroyed when Brad Handly happened to be the very same bartender who had given Eddie the invite.
 Considering Brad's immediate bark of laughter followed by a hug and introducing himself as "Steve's gay awakening", Steve ended up having to speedrun through Eddie and Robin both having a crisis for him.
It didn't help that Steve had politely, and laughingly, corrected Brad with a casual; 
"Pretty sure that was Tommy man, but if it helps I think that tongue of yours gave Matt Burdon a crisis."
--which ended up with him answering a lot more gay sex questions with Brad than he cared too. 
At least he, through Brad, was able to help Robin connect to some local lesbians and--after a second crisis from Eddie regarding how Steve managed to have more sex than "the resident town freak and guy who actually knew he was gay, Steve!"-- even helped Eddie out by catching the metalheads tongue with his mouth later that evening.
The last one landed him a boyfriend, trust fund be damned.)

in retrospect, daniel’s entire storyline is incredibly hilarious because while all the other passengers are stuck in a loop reliving their worst memories, daniel is more or less a walking cheat code and he’s somehow having the worst time out of all of them. he hasn’t slept in 8 days and he’s wet all the time. he has a wife who doesn’t remember him and a dead son. he has to watch his wife fall in love with a handsome brooding sea captain over and over again. his only friends are a virtual version of his son who clearly prefers his mother over him and his son’s pet bug. he gets the absolute shit beat out of him by a background character. he’s done this simulation countless times before and somehow his wife is still always two steps ahead of him. the man’s really out there just barely passing an open-book exam. poor little meow meow indeed.

Propaganda
Martha Sleeper (Penthouse, Broken Dreams)— Her eyes are enough! She is one of the most beautiful women in old hollywood and should be more well known
Joan Blondell (Footlight Parade, The Public Enemy)—My Pre-code QUEEEEEN. Joan is a large part of why I love 30s movies. She's got such a flair and presence. She's not known for her voice, but her rendition of Remember My Forgotten Man will grab you by the heart. She played a variety of roles, and held her own with major stars like Bette Davis and Hot Vintage Poll icon James Cagney. She was a hardworker, even as Hollywood stopped giving her prime roles, and continued working in film and television up until her death. She's an absolute firecracker, even in her supporting roles I end up focused on her. Also, I just think it's cute that her name (real!) is Blondell.
This is round 1 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.
[additional propaganda submitted under the cut]
Joan Blondell:
Tumblr media
A pre-code sweetie. Hot, funny and practical.
Criterion retrospective:
youtube
Sharp-tongued, sharp-witted, and beautiful - what more could you ask for from a dame of the gangster film/screwball comedy era? (Also, James Cagney would want you to vote for her!)
with her sunny smile and characters tending to exhibit a blend of happy-go-lucky cheerfulness and scrappy toughness, joan blondell is one of the quintessential stars of the pre-code era. she and fellow fast-talking wisecracker james cagney were close friends, having met when they were in a broadway play together in 1929, and made seven movies together that ran the gamut from gangster pictures to comedies to musicals.
Tumblr media
She's absolutely hilarious and I love her
She's the wisecracking blonde who has been around the block and knows the score, but just look at those big blue eyes gazing at Jimmy Cagney as she burns the midnight oil to help him achieve his dreams and picks him up when he gets buffeted by life
Smart, snarky, and so sexy!
My Forgotten Man is one of the most haunting depictions of the consequences of WWI that I’ve ever seen, knocked out of the park by Joan Blondell’s performance. In one song number it traces sending the boys off to war, bringing them back to die in the streets maimed, drunk, and full of PTSD, then leaving them to starve in the Depression, framed by the suffering of the women who loved them. Holy shit? This is a musical number? They fucking produced this barnburner in a mainstream musical?
My Forgotten Man, in two parts:

In retrospect, VA making a big deal out of abbacchio only being at peace when he’s blindly following orders from a “grand and absolute entity” that is heavily implied to be (most definitely) bucciarati is hilarious bc half the times bucci on screen asks abbacchio to do anything he responds like this

Unintentional Comedy - Dragalia and Feh Artwork Edition
So, remember Alfonse, from FEH?
Y'know, this dude?
Tumblr media
For an okay crutch for those without Gala Euden or Albert or other handy light swords they didn't want to invest in, he was rather popular, only partly owed to any pre-established fondness FEH players had since they already knew him. People liked the more expanded personality we got than FEH's bare-bones story, additionally before they started trying to spice Alfonse up in more recent books.
In his story, however, one of the events that happening is Euden falling off a cliff, shortly followed by Alfonse.
Miraculously, cliff-falling isn't quite as dangerous in Dragalia Lost as in real life (also demonstrated by Leonidas in Stranded Scions, etc...), and the two survive. Alfonse has some sort of injury to his foot, however, conveniently hampering his ability to move but not much else.
Euden, being Euden and unwilling to throw anyone to the wolves, comes up with this idea:
Tumblr media
Nothing atypical here, right?
...Well, as it was revealed in a book published two years later than his debut in Dragalia, Fire Emblem Heroes Character Illustrations, Volume 1...
Alfonse is 180cm tall, AKA 5'11.
Tumblr media
...Is it any surprise coming from 195cm/6'5 and 180cm/5'11 parents? Someone check the Askran royal food for steroids that Sharena has apparently not been consuming, presumably because she's instead dining with heroes in the barracks.
I digress.
Now, as I've gone over before here, here's where it gets hilarious in retrospect.
In short, Ranzal, the resident big buff burly dude of Dragalia...is stated to be 6'1/185 in the joke comics.
Tumblr media
...And while literally nobody else got an even vaguely-official number to their height, Dragalia instead opting for a 'comparison heights' to keep track of who's shorter and who's taller in a pair... Euden often seems to wind up in the 150-155cm/5'0-5'1 range or even shorter when in illustrations with Ranzal:
Tumblr media
At most, I've seen him crack about 5'9/175cm in the comics, which aren't exactly a stable source of art, as demonstrated by these two panels, in which both seem to be on flat ground and standing pretty straight:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I need to stop before I mindlessly repeat the other post, but my point remains:
Euden, by most depictions, is tiny. A literal short prince/king.
And yet, no matter what way you slice it, he's trying to carry a dude that seems to be quite a bit taller, let's say. How much, we'll never know, but the fact remains he'd likely need to pull out a dragon phone to search 'how to carry people much taller than you?' just in case and hurriedly read a wikihow 10-step article explaining some strats, were it not for the fact that dragons would have destroyed smartphones in Dragalia a long time ago (good move, dragons....?).
I will admit that there are a few arts that frame them as the 'same height' but I would more point to the fact Euden, when drawn with crossover characters for promotional art, is usually portrayed on an 'equal footing', so as not to have one take up more space/attention. Also, the Feh team might not have even decided on a height for Alfy boy before!
Even then, he's still portrayed as shorter than 5'9/175cm Joker in some art:
Tumblr media
So yeah. Crossover art is not exactly consistent, and all I can do is look to the general trend in the 'canon game' of him being absolutely dwarfed by Ranzal.
Now, it's one thing for Euden to be lugging about Alfonse for a while.
The idea he might have done so with such a potential height disparity is pure comedy.
No wonder he's so tired after a while, lugging about another human who is both taller, heavier, and also wearing armor!
Not only that, he later tries and partly succeeds in fighting heavily armored soldiers (who are admittedly aiming to capture him and kill Alfonse) with Alfonse 'draped across his back like a sack of potatoes'. Talk about determination, adrenaline, and/or the simple principle of 'small but mighty'!
Tumblr media
Maybe that's why Alfonse was saying "I don't think that's wise" at the start there before he quickly found other rationale besides 'you sure you can give a piggyback without my feet dragging along the ground the whole way?'
My case rests, Your Honor: they unintentionally made part four of Alfonse's personal story a lot funnier to envision by publishing an art book 2 years after he first existed in Dragalia Lost!

What the fuck does Romanian police arresting a sex trafficker have anything to do with American bullshit? Why does the swedish teen climate change activist that laughed at him on twitter trigger them so much lmao
IKR? They are straight up asking for Biden to pardon him, like......THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS. AND YOU CAN'T PARDON SOMEONE WHO HAS YET TO GET A SENTENCE!!! If they had a brain, they'd rather talk about extradition, but these idiots think Romania is the 51st state of the USA somehow... Honestly USAmericans deserve their reputation of being absolute idiots.
And yes, Greta got them real shook. Watching them navigate through the 7 stages of grief to cope with that trainwreck was hilarious.
First they spread straight up misinformation saying Tate got released....by posting months old videos of him partying. Bold of them to pretend to escape from "the matrix" when they are so kin to drown themselves in their own delusion by crafting a whole another reality to fit their own bias....like b, shut up about the "eScApInG fRoM tHe mAtRiX" YOU ARE THE MATRIX!!
Then they said Greta should be ashamed of making fun of the size of his peepee (funny, bc this whole anti bodyshaming thing came from the "woke mob" that Conservatives usually looove clowning for resorting to emotionalism...🤔)
And now they're seething saying that the Greta joke wasn't funny and that the narrative of him being doxxed by his own pizza was fake.....when those are actually just details in this whole fiasco, and tbh people being nitpicky about this just proves even further how they are too embarrassed to handle the bigger picture so they try to deflect onto small details. Whether Tate doxxed himself or not doesn't retrieve anything to the pathetic irony of him being arrested moments after making a lame 2 minutes video comeback bc he got his fee fees hurt by a one liner comeback on Twitter. What truly made people lose their mind was 1)that (low blow) clapback was out of character for Greta. She usually barely engages with anyone on her twitter account, so the fact she chose violence like that is unprecedented 2)the timing of him getting in a stupid twitter beef flexing about his wealth & lifestyle just before getting arrested was just perfect 3)the irony of him being dragged by an autistic girl half his age when his whole brand his the strong unbothered Alpha male is peak poetic cinema. Only stupid moids think they are doing something being like "sO yOu Admit yOu Have a sMalL peNis GrEtA?? tHat'S yOur oWn AdDreSS aMiRitE???🤪" ....like, that's such a typical boomer-tier brand of 1st degree level reading comprehension..... By making a stupider comeback to an already stupid post Greta took the piss out of Tate and there are no configuration in which he could possibly make a compelling come back. Brillant. Sometimes, you have to lay as low as your enemy, and considering the unpredicted consequences of this stunt, that's what made her move retrospectively outstandingly funny. Moids, scrotes and Tate-sexuals can seethe, Greta won💚

rewatching the first few episodes of Junior Year and it is SO funny in retrospect to consider Jawbone's perspective when the Bad Kids meet Kipperlily for the first time
Brennan says Jawbone looks "nonplussed" but you can just imagine his internal panic as his favorite group of kids (some of whom he has literally or essentially adopted) is meeting this girl for the first time who absolutely hates their guts and he just has to sit there and nod politely, knowing she has near-murderous levels of rage and vindictiveness for them
and then Riz tries to steal her file
it's extra hilarious/awful knowing that that file contains pages upon pages of Kipperlily just absolutely foaming at the mouth and boiling with anger about Riz and his dead dad and all of his friends and their associated tragedies
and Jawbone just goes "I wouldn't" when Riz fails his stealth check
can you imagine if Riz had gotten a Nat 20 on that stealth check, Kipperlily's whole spot would've been blown up on Day 1.

🧭 Stray Kids Headcanons - Emeto
🐺 Bang Chan
Will never ever admit to sickness and rather hide in the studio
Doesn’t let you see that he is sick so good luck
Doesn’t want to let the kids down or see him weak, so he might even prefer a manager by his side or one of his GOT7 hyungs or TWICE noonas - though being alone is preferred
The younger members hate it and it causes Lee Know to feel like Chan didn’t think he could rely on him
🐰 Lee Know/Minho
As a caretaker: You’re his baby now
But sheesh, when he is sick
You’re a dongsaeng? He hates you with every fiber of his being
You’re Bang Chan? He still hates you but also you’re the one he feels like he can admit sickness to
He doesn’t want to burden his dongsaengs too much, so he would seek out Bang Chan
But his Hannie is the only one he doesn’t absolutely despises so he gravitates towards him even if not consciously
Very quiet and will try to hide because of embarrassment 
Might get motion sick on planes or tour buses
The others can usually tell when he gets quiet and pale
🐰🐷 Changbin
Has overworked in the gym to nausea before
But otherwise doesn’t really get sick
If he refuses food you should start to get worried
Would go to Chan if he can’t hold out on his own anymore but really doesn’t mind getting fussed over by everyone when they notice
Strong stomach and is the one who will carry you to bed and clean up after you
Very soft for Seungmin and Felix in particular
🥟 Hyunjin
Surprisingly good with the maknaes, especially the three youngest
Probably because unlike the rest of the hyung line he is naturally quiet
Very self-sufficient, yes, he can be a drama queen but not when sick
Will tie his hair back and sit in the bathroom alone but not without telling somebody just in case
The others are seldom able to tell when he isn’t feeling good so it might come as a surprise
Might allow Chan in with him, if he is desperate, or Lee Know
Gets car sick occasionally and needs somebody to hold his hair because he gets so dizzy
🐿️ HAN/Jisung
Nerves make him nauseous, oh god, help him
Every member has seen him puke before
Not good with it when he is sick himself but seeing others be sick? No prob
Is whiny and you will know when he is sick (with the stomach flu)
Constant hiccoughs and holding his stomach
Poor guy really isn’t good at being sick
Kind of scared because it gets so hard to breathe, so hold his hand, Minho-hyung, and cuddle him
Will not make it to the toilet - try to locate a bag or bucket and pray
🐥 Felix/Yongbok
Feels the tiniest bit of nausea? You’ll find him glued to his Channie-hyung
Might accept Hyunjin or maybe even Changbin as alternatives but please get him Chan
It’s not even that he’s emetophobic or scared he just hates feeling unwell
Camps on the bathroom floor
It’s so different to his normal happy-go-lucky operating system that he doesn’t know how to cope
Definitely wants chicken soup when vomiting (don’t tell bbokari)
Seungmin finds it hilarious and has once placed bbokari on the tray with the soup
Felix threw up on him in revenge - I.N. couldn’t stop laughing at Seungmin’s shocked and betrayed face but Seungmin had to admit it was funny in retrospect
Felix does still feel a bit bad about it but justice for bbokari!
🐶 Seungmin
Migraine boy and they make him absolutely miserable and useless
Actively would seek out Hyunjin if he has a migraine because the other is quiet and knows how to stroke his hair just right
Migraines make him so damn nauseous, you’ll find him draped over the toilet at least every few weeks - stress triggers them
He is very loud when sick and ironically it hurts his head even more 
Has thrown up in bed or on the floor before when he already woke up with a migraine
If it’s a stomach bug he would hide it though 
Since he is down with migraines so often he doesn’t think he should go bother his hyungs even more
Has thrown up on Hyunjin’s shoes during dance practice before because he tried to hide he caught the stomach bug passing around
🦊 I.N./Jeongin
kinda learned from Lee Know hyung: he will hate you
No seriously, leave him alone
Let’s everybody know he is sick but threatens to throw up on them if they bother him
Hides with a bucket in his room
Everybody hates that he won’t let them in but respect his privacy
Might seek out Seungmin (or if really desperate Felix) though if he is feeling particularly bad - somehow having his fellow maknae(s) was better than a hyung
