Happy May 27!

I always thought Nicola was beautiful but DAMN!!! s3 Penelope is next level hot.

Get ready to fight,Colin, i'll steal your girl.

Someone today will read Shakespeare’s hamlet and say omg he’s just like me fr. Another person will read moby dick and proclaim Ishmael as an adhd king.

A person grieving for their recently deceased lover reads the iliad and they watch as Achilles rages and rages and god how righteous anger fueld by love is so devastating that it’s ramifications still affect the world several thousand years later.

We might one day settle down and read the epic of gilgamesh and watch as a king has to accept the death of the person he loved the most. One of the very first stories ever written and it was about coping with death, and how to grieve.

We don’t read classics because they’re old, we read them because they remind us that we are never alone. That a character created over 500 years ago struggled with the exact same problems we all still have today. That even a king from centuries past had to deal with death just like me. That’s what makes stories so powerful–they prove to us that we are never truly alone in what we are feeling.

“You’re miserable for nothing. I don’t know why you’d want to live…”

Happy pride month!

bring back tumblr ask culture let me. bother you with questions and statements

best ship dynamic is everyone thinking person a is a badass and person b is a softie but it turns out to be the other way around

mickey running away when he and ian are confronted by the cop in s10 is so funny. not just because of the obvious comedy of mickey immediately hopping a fence when a cop so much as speaks his name, but for the fact that he completely ABANDONS his literal boyfriend???? what was the thought process, leave ian to be arrested or brought in for questioning while you make a run for it LIKE GIRL WHERE ARE U GOING!!! i like to think that if ian had actually went in for questioning that very moment he'd return at like. dinner time to see mickey casually eating at the table and would give him the world's biggest glare and cold shoulder. mickey my stupid little criminal (affectionate)

Savage Bilbo is the best Bilbo

Lobelia Sackville-Baggins: Well, if it isn't Little Bilbo Sunshine.

Bilbo: Little Bilbo Sunshine died. I'm Little Bilbo Go Fuck Yourself.

I'm tired of seeing the word grooming taken out and used all the time by people who probably don't understand its definition.

For the record, Christine was in her twenties, when she met the Phantom / Erik. She was a fucking adult, in a society that for the time considered her a spinster. She never turned 15 or 16 in the original story, as people are so fond of claiming.

Also, Erik is not a villain but an anti-hero character. I'm tired of seeing him constantly demonize, like he's just a bad guy, when he doesn't.

Erik and Christine are basically twisted versions of Beauty and the Beast, Hades and Persephone, and Romeo and Juliet. Without forgetting that they are also, among other things, the incarnation of death and the maiden.

Erik also symbolizes Christine's sexual awakening and coming of age.

Whether you like it or not, they have a romantic and sexual connection in the original text.
