Starting a a series where I post things my wife says in their sleep. Part 1
"Oh my god this is weird" I turn over and look at them and ask "what's weird, are you sleep talking?"
They promptly reply "hmmmm yeah maybe"

Some people say that there are no stupid questions, which is blatantly false. Of course there are stupid questions, and if you have one, you had better ask it, before you go and do make a stupider mistake. Stupid questions are more important than intelligent ones. I’m willing to bet more people die because of stupid mistakes than because of intelligent ones.
Unpopular Opinion: I do not want Arthur and John to be canon gay.
While I absolutely enjoy the love and romance and sexy fanfics of them, and actively seek them out, and talk all the time about how gay they are, I do not want them to be a homosexual couple.
I like that Harlan stated they will not be romantically involved. I love how that's essentially established they are queer platonic partners. They are not friends. They are not lovers. They are something altogether different but just as powerfully connected.
I think there is a devastating lack of aromantic and asexual relationships in all media, and this, what Arthur and John have, is so pure, so concentrated, and just as powerful, it makes me want to rip my skin off and cry tears of unfathomable joy.
Hear Me Out So- there is this Podcast musical called 36 Questions... I only did some of the first song, but do you see the vision??
Nowhere on air fanart, based on episode 49!
mutuals can always dm me but be warned i talk like your coworker who is trying too hard to get to know you and my response times are akin to the response times you might get if we were communicating by letter
this new year, remember to be NEW:
Nasty and
Extremely
Weird about something that will alienate most of your followers
not to hype up my malevolent playlist again but it is consistently so funny to me that I have this shit organized like the navy in painstaking order with attention put to every single song choice and placement with very intentional vibes per season from the chaotic rough minor key of s1 to the horror soundtracks and liminality of s2 to the grief and betrayal and hurt of s3 to the meandering and rediscovering and new faces of s4 to the lost but finally synced up and driven s5. and also bonetrousel is in there for yorick fwsjahdjahfj
and also i refuse to change the name because i think its funny
The reason Harlan had to wash away Oscar's letter was because he couldn't physically write a version of it where he didn't graphically describe passionately making out with Arthur with tongue and censoring it wasn't an option. He had no choice but to destroy it

mutuals look we are in the planetarium together
I like enemies to lovers not as a reflection of myself but because I like seeing other people who think they are unworthy or unlovable being proven wrong
Do you like enemies to lovers because it’s hot or do you like enemies to lovers because you think of yourself as unlovable & unworthy of love and therefore like the idea of someone seeing all the worst in you right away and still falling in love with you anyways
What if your skeleton isn't holding you together, it's holding you back
You've been isekai'd into a fictional setting. Spin this wheel to find out which one.
Everyone's talking about their Helluva Boss theories for next season and I have thoughts!
What if there's a time jump? Flash forward even a handful of years, and we learn from flashbacks about MnM baby. Either suddenly they have a kid (or more) or... they don't and we just see the aftermath, the changes that loss put them through.
We could see Stolitz happy-ish? Still not quite right without Via, maybe they're still fighting for a way to reach her, or they've mourned in a way and Stolas has resigned to not seeing her anytime soon and Blitz or Loona are the ones still fighting to get her back.
Literally just episode 48-49

I'm writing an analysis of gender performativity in The Silence of the Lambs for my gender and sexuality class and in the course of my research I have encountered so many bad takes!! I can't not say anything so I've come to Tumblr to rant.
The most common criticism I see is that the ending of "Hannibal" discredits, undoes, or diminishes Clarice's feminism, autonomy, or power, or that it ruins the message of SOTL. That indicates a complete misunderstanding of Clarice and the point of the books! The point of "Hannibal" is to show that it does not matter how amazing, powerful, or how much of a feminist you are: if you are a woman in a career, especially a federal career, the system is designed to put you down and keep you quiet. I think there is nothing more she could have done and nothing she could have done differently to prevent her disgrace. When the system is set up to put men in power and keep them in power, your talent and integrity do not matter if they decide they don't want/need you anymore. There is nothing she can do to prevent the label of "female officer" from haunting her credibility. Even Crawford, who respects her and fights for her, sees her with the caveat of "woman." The one man who does not consider her gender any sort of detriment or a reason to treat her differently is Hannibal Lecter. They have genuine mutual respect. When she chose to be with him, she chose respect, love, and comfort over a life of fighting to be recognized, respected, or listened to. Just as much as it is respectable for women to fight for their right to be recognized in their careers, we must also recognize that that fight should not need to exist in the first place. So, why should there be any shame about choosing not to fight that fight anymore? She spent years in an uphill battle, and she probably never would have escaped it (to no fault of her own!). The ending of "Hannibal" is Clarice raising a middle finger to the system, the FBI, misogyny, and the patriarchy by recognizing that she deserves unconditional love and respect and that the system she fought so hard for was, in fact, completely undeserving of her talent or presence. Her decision is powerful and empowered!
"She was brainwashed!" she literally wasn't. Hannibal tried that (I believe because he was so unfamiliar with the idea of love or family that he didn't know how to understand Clarice outside of the lens of Mischa) but he was unsuccessful. If she was able to resist his efforts of brainwashing while in an altered state she certainly had the strength of mind to make her own decisions. Her decision was not impulsive. Also, I think it serves as a testament to her influence and power over him. She gained control of the situation and he didn't resist that. Ultimately, Clarice chose to spend the rest of her life with the one man who ever truly saw her as more than just a woman, who admired her intellect, and who respected her enough to challenge her. That is not weak, submissive, or misogynistic. Quite the opposite. She chose to leave behind the life she put years of effort into building (because she knew it would be fruitless) in favor of being finally honored and appreciated. That takes courage! She knew her worth, and she knew the FBI didn't deserve her.
Also, anyone who paid any attention to the books saw the romantic tension throughout the story. It didn't come out of nowhere. She really just needed an opportunity or an excuse to be with him, and she was finally presented with it.
I think reading the ending to "Hannibal" as anything other than empowering is a mischaracterization of both Clarice and Hannibal and shows a lack of understanding of the message of the books. I think it reflects a shallow understanding of not only the books, but of how feminism operates IRL (especially during the 80s/90s).
I also must give the disclaimer that I do not think these books are epitomes of feminism or representation. The transmisogyny, racism, queerphobia, etc., are obviously inexcusable. Just because I interpret their message as a story of caution about how misogyny operates, and how it is respectable to choose a path that does not work within that system, does not mean I agree with everything presented in them or any of their harmful rhetorics or stereotypes. I have a STRONG love/hate relationship with these stories and I don't ever mean to undersell the "hate" part of that lol.
Thinking about how one night, now that they’re actually in the same space as one another; Loona off to a party, Blitz will turn on the tv and play some smooth jazz.
He’ll do a little shimmy over to Stolas, cracking a smile as he holds his hands out, asking Stolas to dance with him.
Because Blitz saw at Verosika’s party how delighted and surprised Stolas was that someone had actually asked him to dance and Blitz never got that opportunity. (A very small (large) part of him also wants to show up that ‘bird stealing cock bag’ but that’s neither here nor there.)
Blitz will grab Stolas’s hands so gently, pulling him up out of the kitchen chair, smiling wider at the slight blush on Stolas’s cheeks as he pulls him in front of the couch.
At first, mainly because of their height differences, it’s a bit awkward, figuring out where hands go, but eventually Blitz places his hands on Stolas’s hips and just sways them back and forth, maybe adding a little twirl when he feels bold enough. Stolas runs his hands over Blitz’s horns.
They loose track of time, not even really moving to the beat of the songs anymore, just basking in the fact that they can finally touch one another, finally have a moment of peace to just exist together. To just be them. Just Stolas and Blitz.
no one was making the obvious joke, i gotta do everything me self
Am I getting a good grade in tumblr mutual?
I have a disorder that makes me want to headcanon every nonhuman character with the ability to purr regardless if it makes sense for their kind or not. It's called being right. With enough research i could justify a tree purring if i wanted to
