"But life is due to order, isn't it?" the human said, "our society, the laws of nature, all of the rules that keep our bodies running, where would we be without order?"
The protean laughed. It sounded like a dozen of the least flattering laughs you could imagine, all at once. It was a cacophonous thing, made of pure joy.
"You think life, you think humanity is the result of order? Your body once walked on all fours and climbed in the trees, but your ancestors moved to the plains, so the shapes twisted to serve that purpose. All life is like this. Entropy! The breaking down of the complex into the simple, and re-forming that into energy. Into blood and flesh! No, life has chaos to thank for that."
The human scratched its chin.
"That may be so for nature, perhaps it thrives on chaos, but look at what humanity has made! Laws, society, settlements, what else do you call those but order?"
"Humans love to try and create order, true, but they always fail. I suppose those laws are always followed? And all of you choose to live within society and its settlements?" The protean's mouths grinned, adding, "and even these attempts at order are chaos themselves. You deny your instincts constantly. Deny that which your body cries out for. The laws of humanity are only created by disobeying nature's commands!"
The human frowned. They had been at this for... the human couldn't reckon, and whatever it proposed, the thing opposite had a rebuttal. "We must seem so foolish to an immortal like you," it said after some time.
Another laugh. Louder, more dissonant, more mirthful than before.
"Haven't you been listening? Of course you do! Why do you think we love you so much?"

Every single time I find some new actor to obsess over I have to go through the inevitable process of finding out they have a partner/wife/girlfriend.
Is this man usually 10-25 years older than me?
Yes.
Is it surprising that such an attractive man is taken?
No.
Am I fully aware that I have absolutely no chance what so ever?
Yes, I am.
Does it still shatter my heart into a million pieces when I find out they're taken?
Yes, yes it does.
(This is how it feels lol. Or that scene of Regina screaming and trashing her room. Or that scene of Azula breaking down)

I gotta get this off my chest
I gotta say it
I gotta do it
The gag scene with Silco, I've seen it debated time and time again about where the gag came from. Well, today I'm gonna tell you.
Silco's a literal crimelord, there's probably kidnapping equipment around that's very accessible. He sends people out to kidnap/torture other people all the time in the background lore stories from like when Cait was investigating the chembarons (if I remember where the link is for it I'll put it here, but not in the show, was a background thing for it
EDIT: HERE IT IS Thank you @zkyfall <3)
That's it send tweet

no i can't be normal in fact i refuse. whenever you make your bed you hand me your stuffed shark plush (it's a blahaj) (everyone knows it) (you named it BLEH) but you hand me the plushie before you make the bed , spare it the indignity of being on the floor for even a second
and i think that's why i was put on earth. to hold your oversized shark while you shake the crumbs off your duvet (sorry)
o to be loved like that. o to hold your shark because your tender heart is too tender by far. o to be your accomplice in this act. i hope i get crumbs on your bed for the rest of my life

ok but a parks and rec fexi au would fit so well. lexi being ambitious, hardworker, and passionate about east highland and wanting what's best for the town, while fez is awkward and cold at the beginning, but he's actually just lovable, and a big nerd. they meet working at the government. fez and ash as ben and chris coming to east highland trying to fix the town's financial issues. they have a little "enemies to lovers" at first, not seeing eye to eye with the town's adjustments, but as they start working closer, they fall in love with each other.

florida makes me want to kill myself
if you're unaware or curious; this school, douglas anderson, had a play that was gonna happen but got cancelled due to "inappropriate content" or some shit like that.
i use to go there, so this is important to me.
the play is called "Indecent" by Paula Vogel, and from what I know it includes a lesbian kiss and jewish representation.
but for some reason it's cancelled.
mostly because of the "don't say gay" bill. which is fucking insane. i absolutely can't believe this shit, but guess what, THAT'S FLORIDA FOR YOU
they're changing the play to something more "appropriate" to make it more "suitable for audiences".
they changed it because of "mature" content.
a lesbian kiss? sure.
it just infuriates me to see shit like this. i'm fucking pissed. please share, reblog, whatever just get the word out

Things I've seen tumblr memeing about James Somerton doing à la "How did no one see how bigoted he was!" as if those things haven't been a significant part of tumblr culture for over a decade :
Presenting untrue and bordering on conspiratorial versions of (queer or otherwise marginalised) history without any sources
Completely disregarding and disrespecting any expertise on socio-cultural topics/humanities and distrusting academics and historians (incl. acting as if no academics or historians could be queer or marginalised)
Downplaying the role misogyny played in the historical oppression of queer women and concluding that queer men must have been more oppressed than queer women
Bi women are, at best, not as queer as "real" queer ppl, and at worst, simply equivalent to straight women
Despite nominal trans inclusivity, transmasculine ppl are functionally women when convenient (combined with the above, bi transmascs are functionally straight women)
Despite nominal trans inclusivity (bis), shamelessly attacking, threatening and actively endangering any trans woman who questions them or smth they find important (often by unfairly presenting her as violent or as a threat)
Having absolutely fucking wild and reductive takes about ace ppl, the oppression they face and their place in the queer community
Stating that marriage equality is an assimilationist fight while completely ignoring its direct roots in the horrifying consequences of the AIDS crisis for partners of ppl who died of AIDS
Praising western media creators from the past for queer coding even under censure and in the same breath condemning current non western media creators for being homophobic bc their representation isn't explicit enough
Blaming China for all existing homophobic censoring in western media
Assuming all queer media would be better told by western creators and by western standards
Only out queer ppl get to tell queer stories
Heavily criticising almost all queer media created by women or ppl they see as such (see above points about trans ppl) or involving/starring a significant amount of women for any perceived or real amount of "problematicness", but fawning over and praising and negating criticism of queer media created by and starring mostly or even functionally exclusively men (even when it could be argued that, you know, not involving/seriously sidelining women is a pretty clear example of misogyny which should probably be considered "problematic")
And I'm probably forgetting stuff or there's stuff I have internalised myself and don't recognise as an issue
Like idk but I feel like the takeaway from Hbomberguy and Toddintheshadow's videos should maybe be "be aware of such patterns in your communities bc they definitely exist" and not "this guy is uniquely awful" and I feel like a lot of the discussion I've seen surrounding this has been severely failing at that. Most ppl who've spent any significant amount of time on tumblr prob either have internalised at least one of those thought patterns, have had to de-internalise them, or have had to be extremely vigilant to not internalise them (which is done by, you know, seeking out other sources, which also seemed like an important takeaway from the videos)

I like to think that Vulcans who come to understand that Humans just can’t try to process emotions the same way as them, it’s just healthiest to let it out in harmless ways, decide that venting and stuff should be taken just as seriously as Vulcan’s meditation time, and will encourage the Humans around them to complain about what’s upsetting them
People who are used to aloof Vulcans who avoid Humans at all cost running into one comforting a Human
“-and then they said my cheesecake was subpar, and they didn’t even bring a dish!!!”
“The purpose of this event was that every participant brings a food item of sorts, correct?”
“Yeah!!”
“And they did not follow this rule while insulting dishes that were brought?”
“Mostly just my dish but yeah >:(“
“How illogical”
“That’s what I’m saying!!!”

"keep your friends close and your rival-turned-into something more than what we perceive it to be but everyone see the obvious fact. denying such claims, we keep the 'rivalry' facade we have until eventually we realize when one shows even a glint of their geniune vulnerability and warmth, then and only then do we understand that whatever we could have right now, can be lovelier and lasting than what could make us feel lost and empty if we prolong what we are acting on against one another...closer"
