Does . . . does someone need to explain to YouTube that lightsabers make no sense? As in, they can melt metal (turning it red hot and liquefying it) but don't set people's eyebrows on fire every time they strike a pose with one?

Hell, they can cauterise wounds instantly but don't seem to radiate heat at all. They are crystallised beams of light, the colour of which is not obviously correlated to energy output in any way. You either knock one up in your spare time in a desert hut or have to go on a vision quest to retrieve the mystic heart of them. How the hell does the balance work? Is the laser heavy?!

Quite frankly if they get treated as if they were just, you know, swords, that's really not any less daft than anything else about them.

if you could give one piece of advice to anyone ever walking the earth, what would it be?

Be kind.

Be honest.

Be honorable.

Always do your best, and accept that your best varies from moment to moment.

Don't be a dick.

no my otp isnt pepperony or rhodeytony or stony or even ironstrange. its actually rhodey/tony/strange/steve/pepper/may/nat. do with that beautiful creation what you will. also fun uncles sambucky and fun kids parley parkner <33

[stevie-petey]

do you have any headcanons or ideias for bug and steve’s first time?

i honestly dont really think about them in that way !!

all i can really envision is that when it does finally happen, it happens naturally, it isnt a big deal or something done consciously. they simply just fall into each other one night and dont stop.

in the morning, steve is extra gentle with bug and they share a small, secret and shy smile. they dont say anything, they dont need to. nothing changes. their relationship just becomes a little fuller, a little more all encompassing.

as for timeline, sometime between season 4 and 5 obviously. if we do get the time jump, id say it happens closer to the start of season 5. bug needs time to mourn everyone, and steve never tries anything unless she initiates first <3

might have to dip my toes into the marmalade fandom because looking back the whole movie feels like a thrilling engaging act 1 to a whole 3 act series. I desperately want to follow Otis through the arc he could be having after that ending. I want those handful of shots with gears clearly turning to be the story, the possible implications of every hesitation. It feels like we stopped at the beginning of act 2, screw kung fu panda 4 or moana 2 i want a marmalade trilogy

[astral-catastrophe]

That’s probably not good

how it feels getting trapped in a sleep paralysis/false awakening loop for 40 minutes while trying to take a nap right before having to make a phone call

Monday Philm on a Tuesday. Okay fine, Charlie Wilson's War (2007), you win! Despite what I feel are some major miscasts and the most Aaron Sorkin-y script to ever exist and several thorny issues ranging from casual sexism to 9/11, I think I love this movie. Tom Hanks' dumb accent has worn me down to the point that it's almost a comfort watch. It's remarkably easy viewing, given the subject.

A couple quick hits:

Gus Avocados, my favorite apple importer <3

I just watched a BAFTA interview where Phil said the biggest challenge for him with this role was the hair and the brown contact lenses, which gave him an eye infection (anti-contacts gang rise)

When Mike Vickers says, "Well, I've written it all in a report you can read. You'd be the first one who did." As someone who has sent my thesis to multiple people (upon their request!) and never heard back from any of them, #felt

The window breaking scene obviously gets the most attention (and for good reason) but the tapped scotch bottle bit is hilarious

This week I found a few photos of Phil on set with the real Gust's family, including Gust's son and grandkids. So cute n sweet he spent some time with them. I knew Gust died before the film was made and Phil never met him but I didn't realize he died less than a year before they started shooting.

"I just told you, I paid a witch in Pennsylvania $80 to put a curse on Henry Cravely for me. Do I sound like a typical case officer?"

Just learned other CIA staff members gave Gust the nickname "Dr. Dirty" I don't wanna talk about it 🧎‍♀️

As a 90s kid I will always be comforted by Tom Hanks' screen presence even if he's playing a sleaze (and miscast at that)

Gary Goetzman, the inspiration for Gary Valentine in Licorice Pizza, was a producer on this film!

Gust is so so so soso sosos sosososoos hot he is always eating or drinking or smoking or chewing on something in this film it's driving me crazy❤️

i know the modern society has a habit of highlighting those who get a lot of done and have a lot of energy to do things and that it can feel overwhelming, and to be hard not to compare yourself to them.

but you are good enough even in the times when you're exhausted. you are allowed to take a break when you need one. you are good enough when you go at your own pace.

sending love to all of you today 💕

I'm having another one of those 'damn I make a lot of emphasis on how my characters are breathing and conveying emotions through inhaling and exhaling' moments-
