I’d never, ever hurt a lady but I’d be happy to punch a feminist. It’d bring me great joy.
treat yourself like you would treat your favorite character
Excuse me, professor, i have to leave i feel an unrgent need to watch a good man goes to war one more time and cry af
Important to me that Hob Gadling is not understood to be a good man. Or at least; hes been a bad man for far longer than he had been a good one. He was cruel, before he was kind, unthinking before considering, violent before he was mild. Greedy, greedy, greedy. A different kind of greedy, but there exists no man who wishes for immortality that is in any way satiable. Hob is a man who wants for simple pleasures, yes. Fighting, eating, sleeping, fucking. But he probably has killed men for want of things, (hes been soldier and reiver and highwayman and bandit before a printer, and certainly before scholar.) He's probably killed men for less. Im sure there is SOME moral code, but he for a very long time, this is not a good man. Stop treating him as such. I hope we see Hob kill people.
your grandma laughs at my jokes and says that handsome young man is so much better than my worthless grandson
the s1 of the sandman is literally about corinthian and how he tries to deal with his dady issues lol.
I know everyone loves the Corinthian because he’s creepy/sucks/fucks etc but I’m into this character because he’s a poster boy for conditional acceptance.
He’s created to fulfill one purpose. If he doesn’t contort himself into the correct behaviour, he’s scrapped to be remade and remade until he acts as intended.
Morpheus doesn’t seem to have a personal relationship with him like he does with other Dreaming characters. When he kills the Corinthian, Morpheus’ “I made you poorly” speech dismisses that the nightmare is an individual in control of his actions.
Lucienne visibly dislikes him but is quick to forgive Fiddler who also defected. It’s like the Corinthian is treated more like a project or a weapon than an entity of the Dreaming.
I don’t think his ability to attract people affords him any lasting power either. People crave him, his body or his success but it’s a self-interested infatuation. People don’t love him for his personality because he doesn’t have one; it’s polite and forgettable and adapted to attract whoever he’s targeting. He fills the spaces in between people’s real relationships and while maybe it’s fun, ultimately he’s forgotten.
And can we talk about the second Corinthian being obsessed with learning about his previous iterations? That’s fucked up and dystopian.
He’s a really tragic character. Also a horrible violent maniac.
“he’s killed people” ok but have you considered that he did it in a hot pathetic way.
As for me ? I like the eyes 🖤👁
i haaaate when iris by the goo goo dolls comes in when i’m in a store how am i supposed to act normal when you can’t fight the tears that ain’t comin or the moment of truth in your lies when everything feels like the movies yeah you bleed just to know you’re alive
I’m calling it now, “I bet you did numbers on twitter” will become a new insult on tumblr.com.
- ‘u dont have (insert food/music/restaurant here) over there??’ - ‘wait what time is it. shouldnt u be asleep’ - alternatively: timezoned/clockblocked again - ‘do u need a hug. have a virtual hug’ - weird slang terms - ‘i will fight everyone thats mean to u. i will fight them rn’ - vague embarrassment regarding ur accent - ‘dont maKE ME COME OVER THERE’ - ‘oh yeah i have a friend who lives in (insert country here) and apparently’ - no real hugs :(( - suffering - fahrenheit vs celsius - the measuring of things in feet fucks one of u up, probably
Oh, how I romanticise your flawless imperfections.
I love the aesthetic of Wednesday (2022) so much that I don't want to watch this series so as not to spoil my experience with reality
there is something so darkly comical about tumblr potentially outliving twitter
tumblr, which is held together with duct tape and madness, run by three raccoons in blood stained Yahoo! hats and a handful of crabs, its only discernible source of income the sale of shoelaces from an inside joke so inside no one knows the original source anymore and fake blue checkmarks... that website still lives on
truly the cockroach of social media and I love it for that
Unstable
a kafka quote that kept me awake at night
McGregor says that every time he crossed paths with Boyle during their decade apart, it was like “meeting an old lover or something. Ultimately, it was nice to see him, always.”
It was McGregor who first offered an olive branch in 2009, when Danny Boyle was having the best year of his career thanks to the juggernaut that was Slumdog Millionaire. “Someone asked him to present an award to me,” Boyle tells Norton, “and he did it, and made this amazing speech. And I was in tears backstage.” As part of that speech, McGregor gave a nod to their long separation: “He pushes you to find more depth and truth. I felt safe in his hands. I’m in awe of your bravery. Making a movie about junkies in Edinburgh was not an easy choice… I love you and miss you.”
The defunctland video was great and all but the bit that's sticking with me is when they talked about how they would covertly get children interested in fish a whole year before any finding nemo advertising so the film would be more popular. And he went "that's pretty sinister actually" and she just said "Yeah! :)"
Oh...
my entire life is just a test to see if i’ll commit suicide or homicide first
“I am almost never serious, and I'm always too serious. Too deep, too shalow. Too sensitive, too cold hearted. I'm like a collection of paradoxes.”
