today we have some jmart vibes (though maybe I only think this bc of a very good fanfic lol):
day 5- I Want To Hold Your Hand {The Beatles}
its been stuck in my head and this is a very good song:
day 42- Vogue {Madonna}
Reblog this picture of me holding a Family Size box of Honey Nut Cheerios? I’d really appreciate it.
today’s song gives such elias bouchard vibes
day 3- Dirty Imbecile {The Happy Fits}
for today I went with a song that I saw a post about, listened to, and promptly decided that I entirely agree with the post in that said song totally gives jon vibes:
day 37- Gods {Nothing But Thieves}
I feel like we really lost something when we started looking at writing as a reader-centric product meant to appeal to the desires of a specific audience rather than a writer-centric approach of someone writes whatever particular thing particular compels them/whatever weird thing the demons in their head want to talk about, and people out there who are also compelled, and/or relate, find that writing. A lot of discussions of writing really center around what readers want rather than a writer's exploration. Sometimes as a reader I don't know what I want. I click on a fic or pick up a book I'm not sure about but that looks interesting, and I love it. Reading what I expect to get is it's own joy, but we always need to expand our horizons and not get mad at creators for not always writing what we want/expect.
to everyone who doesn’t like good omens or neil gaiman anymore, i implore you, READ HITCHHIKER’S GUIDE.
i am being so serious. it’s like if monty python was sci fi and the main character was chuck bartowski with an anxiety disorder.
it needs more fandom and has so many hilarious jokes and the two main characters are shippable to the level that crowley and aziraphale are.
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is its full name, and im sure many have heard of it, but im telling you to READ IT. pleasepleasepleaseplease i need more zaphod beeblebrox fanart in my life. i am suffering.
(sorry if this a little ooc I was just bored and I wanted to write something and this was the first thing that popped into my head, also I’ve never written with them before lol)
{“Ah, Peter, good evening.” Elias didn’t look up from his paperwork when his husband (the divorce would be finalized in a week) appeared in his office. “Good evening Elias.” He didn’t elaborate, instead leaning on his husband’s desk and watching him work.
“Did you need something?” Elias glanced up as Peter shook his head. He watched as Peter reached out and gently trailed a hand over the lapel of Elias’ jacket. “This office of yours is so dusty,” Peter murmured. Elias chuckled. “Yes, I suppose so.”
There was a short pause before he added, “Are you doing anything tonight?” Peter seemed startled by the question for a moment before amusement overtook his annoyingly handsome features. “Are you asking for a date night?”
The shorter man’s eyes stayed on the paper in front of him and his voice was carefully level as he answered, “Not exactly, but something like that. I thought perhaps we could go for a walk. I know you enjoy them, Peter.” The captain was quiet for a moment before he replied, “Alright, yes. Sounds quite nice. Maybe if you’re lucky we’ll both get a meal.” Elias chortled darkly. “Yes, because asking people on the street for a statement will be such a good contribution to my already wonderful reputation.” Peter shrugged. “Well, you never know.”
He slid off the desk with practiced ease before looking back to his husband. He held out a hand, and Elias, having finally put his pen down, took it, allowing himself to be pulled to his feet. Peter pulled him a bit further than strictly necessary, until their chests were nearly flush. The captain closed the distance between them and gently pressed his lips to Elias’s before the latter took a small step back.
“Really, Peter? That was hardly necessary.” Peter gave him a small smile but didn’t deign to reply, instead leading them out of the office, towards the outside.}
thoughts?
it drives me bonkers the way people don't know how to read classic books in context anymore. i just read a review of the picture of dorian gray that said "it pains me that the homosexual subtext is just that, a subtext, rather than a fully explored part of the narrative." and now i fully want to put my head through a table. first of all, we are so lucky in the 21st century to have an entire category of books that are able to loudly and lovingly declare their queerness that we've become blind to the idea that queerness can exist in a different language than our contemporary mode of communication. second it IS a fully explored part of the narrative! dorian gray IS a textually queer story, even removed from the context of its writing. it's the story of toxic queer relationships and attraction and dangerous scandals and the intertwining of late 19th century "uranianism" and misogyny. second of all, i'm sorry that oscar wilde didn't include 15k words of graphic gay sex with ao3-style tags in his 1890 novel that was literally used to convict him of indecent behaviour. get well soon, i guess...
