The Show (going Out To Get Groceries. Making Myself A Nice Dinner. Showering And Opening The Windows.

RIP Gideon Nav. You would have loved bbno$.

The thing I was thinking the most while watching Conclave was actually a classmate I had in uni who is a nun. She talked about the role of women on the church and how there should be a woman pope. And like, years ago she was given a scholarship to study philosophy in Rome, except she couldn't. Because the nuns had to perform all the domestic labor for the priests and the workload was too big, add to that stuff like how no one could leave the dinner table before the archbishop and he liked to talk so sometimes he would make everyone stay until late at night and ofc the nuns had to clean up after that, or when the priests wanted to give the nuns an easy day they would decide they would have a picnic, but the nuns still had to prepare their picnic. My friend just couldn't find the time to study, so she dropped her scholarship and came back to Mexico.

And Conclave does such a good job of making this work visible, even when if only Sister Agnes speaks, there is always shots of nuns working. For everything the priests do, it's always shown how the nuns make it possible. Benítez standing out early on for being the one person to thank them. The film ending on a seemingly unrelated shot of nuns walking.

It's a very poignant statement given how reproductive labor is often invisibilized.

very funny to me when people act like animal farm and 1984 are revolutionary anti government texts that the Powers That Be dont want you to read when they have literally been a part of every standard middle/highschool english lit cirriculum in the usa and beyond for decades. precisely because theyre such convenient primers to propagandize that Commies = Bad. the government is quite literally making kids read them

I know the thought of Charles beating the daylights out of The Cat King is delightful.

Even the thought of Edwin being the one to throw his first ever successful punch into TCKs face.

But Crystal is the one who canonically takes her earrings out and beats the shit out of someone for a small slight. Imagine the damage she'd do if she found out that TCK was harassing Edwin.

She knows fuck boys. She condemns sexual harassment of others. She's a fierce protector of her friends.

Charles wouldn't have the chance to pull the cricket bat out of the bag before Crystal has TCK on the ground to curb stomp him.

Hello chronically ill TLT fans (I don’t know how to find you but hopefully you find me). It is time to announce your headcanons for what chronic illness(es) each necromancer has. When I get a new diagnosis I just assign it to a necromancer to cope which is a fundamentally emotionally healthy thing to do. Please share your thoughts/totally-not-projections!

“Tell me about yourself” ok do u wanna know my past trauma or my fave color?

Locked tomb style

there is still time. there is still time. until your bones are in the fucking ground there is still time.

After months and months of Gideon spewing the most bonkers goth pet names at Harrow, Harrow, on her deathbed, pulls out “first flower of my house.” Was she… trying to reciprocate?

Like she literally says earlier on to Gideon, “You’d better stop it with all this twilit princess garbage because I may start to like it.” I can just see the gears turning in her head. “I like it when she calls ME pet names, therefore the best way to show my affection is to also use a fancy epithet for HER” and then she shot right past “goofy teasing” and landed in “irrefutable romance” territory.

Harrowhark but she's Blood of Eden and her name is Spooky Scary Skeletons Send Shivers Down Your Spine. Is this anything.
