#heads up! here comes the director's commentary: #16 Carriages - now listen. i love texas hold 'em as much as the next daddy lessons supremacist #but holy shit. it doesn't hold so much as a candle to this track. #just unbelievably stunning. i'm begging you to give it another chance if you skipped over it the first time #Don't Forget Me - me and kayla and apryl all having ms rogers in this month's list... i think we might be better than everyone else actuall #End Of Beginning - good GOD we couldn't gatekeep djo any longer but it's worth it if only for all the bear tiktok edits. #and thus i have fallen for this track all over again. yes CHEF #Showtime - now if you've known me long enough you'll know i'm an absolute sucker for british indie rock bands #especially if their frontman looks like they might not make it through another winter #so you can imagine catfish has had an inexplicable hold on me. anyway their comeback single is actually pretty good #This Is The Life - fantastic tune. 2007 if you can believe it? #what a time to be alive and at the school disco and you're singing the songs and thinking this is the life and so on and so forth #Loving You Will Be The Death Of Me - tom odell can do no wrong in my eyes (ears?) anyway. lovely lovely new album #Never Need Me - been loving rachel for a while now and this single is brilliant. highly recommended. #plus the video features florence pugh and if that doesn't sweeten the deal then christ i don't know what will #Baby Now That I've Found You - i didn't even realise this was a cover of the foundations until hearing it again recently #because alison krauss just has an incredible way of making them her own and thus it's been on repeat. #Deeper Well - okay so now i'm seeing the country thread through this month's picks. #this is another lovely new one. hearing it on the radio and the fact that they have to censor “i used to wake and bake” is hilarious to me #shoutout kayla again because great minds.. #Stay For Something - CMAT is phenomenal and if you haven't listened to her yet i can't recommend her entire discography enough. #she had her arsecrack out at the brits last night and well. i would die for her #(speaking of the brits. raye... i literally cried for her. go find the recording of her live at the royal albert hall. #-watch it twice and then come back and thank me) #artists-wise - most of these guys are consistently up there. #katie melua is a new feature this time because all my amy macdonald-ing put me back onto nine million bicycles. #used to get that one mixed up with 99 luftballoons but they're really very different. i'm a fool #so tl;dr: fantastic tunes. do listen #tag #receiptify

We need to start having a conversation about how the British commentators talk about and how they refer to the Asian drivers, because we cannot keep normalizing this type of behavior.

#f1 #formula 1 #formula one #alex albon #zhou guanyu #yuki tsunoda #I'm highlighting the British commentators in particular because theirs is the only commentary I have access #but there's been multiple shall we say uncomfortable incidents and they seem to be occurring more and more frequently #it's not even just the sky commentators #the channel 4 commentators have been just as guilty #and it's not a new issue by any means

internet critics tm getting so mad about black mirror doing supernatural themes in their episodes like girl. any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic! also maybe you should consider that the core conceit of black mirror is really “our contemporary unease with the modern world” and not necessarily ‘instagram bad’

#also I thought mazey days was pretty decent (although SUPER in your face even for bm) and demon 79 was great #though I think bc demon 79 went SO heavy on the political commentary you really needed to be british to appreciate it fully #like everyone who has experienced racism and esp indian diaspora can likely relate to a lot of the racism in the episode but a lot of it #was just so specific to the turn into thatcherite uk #also the demon in the guise of the guy from boney m. oh my god #black mirror spoilers #I guess? #people who just didn’t like the episodes I respect. because that’s just personal taste & yeah bm is uh. not the most subtle of dramas #but the internet critics being like ‘bm is out of touch!’ is just SO funny because yeah they were out of sync with ‘really modern concerns’ #like… two seasons ago? #the fact they only just got to stuff about deepfakes and ai is pretty telling lol

so me and Sam FINALLY watched the last season of Capaldi's Who

and tell me how, after literally over a decade and for perhaps the first time in his fucking career, Steven Moffat wrote a not just tolerable but really actually good two-parter and fully stuck the landing. like the editing and pacing were still a bit off but the storyline was original, fun, interesting and emotionally invested, and most importantly, rather than ending on a damp fart or the most furious autofellatio in history, the final part didn't fumble it and ended in a way that felt emotionally satisfying and like it made sense for the characters. like the last time he successfully wrapped up a multiparter in a way that didn't feel cheap and hollowly disappointing to me was literally The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances, and a) that was in 2005 and b) tbh The Doctor Dances is about a tenth as compelling and memorable as The Empty Child.

so after 12 years of either hackery or great ideas that fall apart in the second act, Steven Moffat writes what I would genuinely consider to be a memorable Good Doctor Who serial. it ends with bittersweet pathos, a solid closer for all the main characters, and sends Moffat's showrunning career out on a genuine high despite failing ratings and budget cuts (and the fact Doctor Who hasn't been consistently good since about 2009). good job Steve. with grudging respect I admit you pulled it out of the bag on this one.

wait what's this there's one more episode left? and it stars Mark Gatiss? and you literally spend the whole episode inexplicably just shitting all over the legacy of Doctor Who by inventing a version of the First Doctor that bears literally no resemblance to the character that William Hartnell actually played, just so you can spend the whole episode saying misogynistic things to run yourself off to how much more Totally Feminist your version was than the version you made up in your head of what Doctor Who was like in the 60s? and it added literally nothing to the season except to take all the wind out of the sails of the actually good finale you already wrote?

even when he writes a good episode this fucker still finds ways to disappoint me.

#red said #as I remembered it is by a LONG shot the best that Doctor Who has been under Moffat and I do think giving Capaldi more creative control #helped a lot. cause he's a massive nerd and also he approximately knows how to construct a story. #bill is the first female companion Moffat has ever written with an actual fucking personality #(even if being mean that personality is maybe kind of just what you'd get if you put rose Martha and Donna in a blender) #(at least she's not a blank slate with the words SASSY. SEXY. written on it) #matt Lucas is genuinely surprising bc despite hating the man it's kind of impossible to not like Nardole by the end?? #michelle gomez finally gets some room to get her Anthony Ainley on and be the Master PROPERLY #i was hooting and clapping my hands at the John Sim Master's dumb disguise #like the cast is GREAT #(and while he still can't shut the fuck up about her at least Moffat isn't shoving River fucking Song down my throat 24/7) #buuuuuuuut uhhhh the politics are. incoherent and the vibes are rancid in a lot of the episode plots. #they clearly WANT to do Social Commentary but weirdly keep bringing up colonialism and capitalism and then taking the side of the baddies? #how are you doing to do a piece about the British Empire colonising Mars with a posh villain and a whole comparison to the British Raj #then come down on the side of the British state? same with the ninth legion piece? and the zombie spacesuit one is fun #but it wraps up with 'and then they complained to upper management and capitalism ended forever the end' #uhhhhh in the one with the microbot colony again we conclude the Morally Correct Answer is colonialism #don't get me started on the monks plot which is a) literally just ripping off the Year That Never Was but without the emotional impact #but also b) has some really weird and genuinely fucked up ideas about both geopolitics and uhhhh consent???? #so yeah the philosophical core is either incoherent or Fucking Horrendous in almost every episode #it's frequently derivative but tbh that's often to its benefit bc it vibes like trying to figure out what actually makes episodes memorable #and the budget is clearly cut to the bone bc the visual effects look worse than 2005 and the post edits are really weird and janky #like the pacing and ordering is weirdly off and a lot of the shot to shot transitions are awkward or confusing. #plus the sound design in the first few eps is. unhinged. it sounds like offbrand versions of standard stings it's all just Slightly Wrong #but for real i liked it more than I've liked any other season of Moffat Who. it's messy incoherent and often politically INFURIATING #but it has some actual heart and energy. and it feels like doctor who. and i would say moffat is spending like 10% as much time #wanking over his own past triumphs (and Alex Kingston) #and a lot more time like. trying to write something which works. he's not like successful 100% of the time. or even 50%. #but there's a lot more warmth and creativity. mackie capaldi and lucas have actual chemistry as a core cast #and i think it helps that everyone in the core cast is SO PSYCHED TO BE THERE. like it just wasn't a slog like all Moffat's other seasons.

Wait, aww does dipper sometimes cook for bill? (Well saying making spicy instant noodles is cooking is a little far fetched but still)

I mean, sometimes!

In the Familiar AU, Dipper and Mabel basically grew up with Stan - and experienced the cooking skills thereof. When faced with choosing a life of glitter in his digestive tract, or earnest but burnt waffles, Dipper figured he might as well learn to cook. He's not winning any culinary awards or anything, but he can follow a recipe and make a decent pasta dish.

Besides. The alternative to Dipper cooking for Bill - is Bill cooking for Dipper. And since Bill's idea of delicacies involve terms like 'unholy abomination', 'unbearably spicy', or 'still squirming', Dipper's more likely than not to shove him out of the kitchen.

They mostly get lot of takeout.

#answers #Technically Bill's the more *skilled* cook. He's super old and eternally knowledgeable and all #Seen everything and learned so much. Probably would watch British Bakeoff while really drunk and make rude commentary #In theory he could make incredible human-edible meals - but where's the fun in that??? They're so BORING #He likes to get Experimental instead! #Good thing Dipper's experienced with less than optimal cooking. He's got a strong stomach #Mostly Bill's uninterested in cooking. When he *does* cook it's best not to ingest the contents unless you're feeling really lucky #So mostly Dipper doesn't #Bill may not *intentionally* poison Dipper - but he's risk-averse #Seriously there's a lot of microwave meals and takeout for these two #Dipper's not gonna spend time to cook when he could be doing other things. Something he takes after Ford in #The upside of Bill having very - shall we say - *expansive* tastes in his dining is that even when Dipper messes up a recipe #Bill eats it without complaint. Maybe some mockery! But not like. Bitching about it. #Dipper just shrugs and is glad the food's not going to waste #Time for instant noodles again #I will add the single exception for Bill's culinary contributions - If Dipper's really sick. Or achingly injured #Bill *might* make a pretty decent soup

There are literally not enough ministers left for the government to actually function and attend to legislation cause they've all either resigned in protest or banded together to convince bojo to leave this is killing me

#at this point i'm jusy doing a running commentary which is probably only entertaining to me but i am just losing it over this #i can't not publicly mock him it's too much to ask of me #one does not simply hate the tories privately #boris johnson #british government #british politics #uk politics

the hard way

i have been re listening to the eboys podcast and guess who has been on my mind??? will lenny! so ofc i am going to write some super self indulgent fics

willne x afab!reader

"that's right, baby. scream my name. let everyone know who this messy cunt belongs to”.

you could feel yourself nearing the edge of your bliss, desperate beyond belief for relief. “please will”, you cried out, gripping the sheets in your fists. “i can’t take anymore will, im going to pass out”.

will allowed your cries to fall upon deaf ears. over time he learned the most effective way to instill obedience is through punishment. that’s all you seemed to respond to. if he wanted things done he would have to do them the hard way. he didn’t always want to inflict pain on you but you made him do it- he couldn’t allow your actions to go unpunished.

“mmm you sound so cute when you beg”. he murmured , tightening his grip on your throat. “think you can manage to behave yourself now”?

you nodded eagerly.

“that’s a good girl. now apologize for being such a brat and i’ll let you cum”.

“i’m sorry will- so so so sorry”. you cried out , any ounce of pride you have left leaving your body at once. “i’ll be good, i pinky promise. i’ll be on my best behavior forever please will- please please please”.

will took a moment deciding weather or not to listen to your pleas.

how could he resist when you sounded so pretty begging for him ?

“go ahead love, make a mess for me”.

the second the words left his lips you let go allowing the sheer force of your orgasm to take you out. for a few blissful moments you were seeing stars.

“look at the mess you made lass, you gonna clean it up for me”?

breathing hard you nodded weakly. your muscles tensed with every movement. the sheets beneath you were covered in a mixture of juices but you were eager to please.

you extended your tongue and lapped up at the puddle of cum looking up at will as you did so.

“jesus christ lass, you’re gonna make me wanna go again lookin at me like that”.

I think Crowley should have really leaned into stereotypes and called Castiel an arse bandit at least once

Beyonce cannot recollect the text...

How diplomatic of Beyonce's people denying the text read out in the FakeFlix Fakeumentary in the kindest way possible...

But the snotklap at the end i.e "it was not a life-changing memory moment" is the best retaliation.

And just to correct everyone on the South African terms used here... snotklap is a face slap that sends boogers flying and it is part of a klapping back process, which is when people get into a hit me, I'll hit you back mode. Please note the correct spelling of klap, it is the Afrikaans word for slap. A Klap-back is vicious retaliation. This is interesting because it is an Afrikaans word with an English word, which South Africans love to do for effect, because klap terug does not quite have the same emphasis. It is not clapping as in applause and as in "I am so amused and entertained. " More like Beyonce just said you don't entertain me in the least you unimportant nobody.

Lesson here is don't step on Queen B's toes and if you do it again, you might get klapped into next week.

who needs a functional economy when you could pay for a billionaire pensioner's hat party instead

Why does no one ever have an original thought anymore? Anyways, Public figures get public events. That’s common sense. They’ll stop having expensive coronations when thousands of people stop traveling to see it and billions more stop watching it across several media.

I know inflation is an issue but Charles can’t scale it down to a barbecue or something because people want to see it and it is a very big historical event. Hopefully the celebrations can be cheaper and inflation less of an issue in the future but there’s literally only 2 coronations a century. And just out of curiosity, how do you feel about celebs that have their big-scale polluting parties every week and give nothing to the general public?

#I bet you were excited too even sussex squad was live streaming it #they weren’t even giving commentary they just wanted views and were excited too #anon #ask #coronation #british royal family #king charles iii
