292. Fairies (Song)
I don’t relate with music written by girls who sing like fairies,
Playing the harp, or ukulele
They make me want to take a shotgun, and blow their fairy heads off —
I’m not a fairy, but I don’t know who I am?
I’m not elegant,
I’m violent,
Leave you in bruises,
Red and violet —
And I don’t relate with music sung by pretty girls who sing like sirens,
With orchestras and violins
Well, maybe I’m just jealous?
I want to take a pair of tweezers, and pull their pretty tails off —
I’m not elegant,
I’m violent —
Leave you in stitches,
Blue and violet —
I’m not an Angel, but I don’t know what I am?
I don’t sing in the choir,
and I don’t coo like a dove —
And I don’t write pretty love songs that you can give to the one you love;
I’m always on the run,
A gypsy witch and vagabond —
I want take a pair of scissors, and clip my demon wings off;
I know I’m elegant,
And violent —
Black and blue,
And red and violet —
I’ll always leave you wanting more,
But that’s just what we’ve got in store.
— A.M. McGee

What really sold me on Red Shoes and the Seven Dwarfs was the part of the movie where Snow can't get the shoes off (because deep down she's no longer so sure that she wants to be who she is without them).
It's one of the most realistically accurate scenes I have ever seen in an animated kids' movie.

Konekomaru: Hey exwires, here's a pro tip: do not write an email to your cram school teacher while you're seriously sick.
Signed, a person who somehow came up with "dear hello, I am sick and not sure if I'll be alive to come tomorrow and I'm sorry, best slutantions, Miwa".
Shiemi: I mean, if someone wrote that to me, I'd probably believe they were sick.
Renzo: "Slutantions" has me crying laughing
Rin: i once emailed Shura with a migraine. a mistake.
"I amsick will not to training because i have a heache. i Hope its very and i am so sorry
love,
blue"
the subject line was "OW"
Izumo: THE SUBJECT LINE IS THE BEST PART
JSJFISJDJS JUST IMAGINE GETTING AN EMAIL WITH NO CONTEXT OTHER THAN "OW"
Mephisto: As someone who runs a cram school, please send those emails because 1) We WILL believe that; no one would write that on purpose and 2) we need a laugh sometimes.
Ryuji: On the other side of this, once after getting taken to the ER by ambulance, I got an email from Sideburns, and the message had no text, just the subject line "you good?"
Yukio: Claritin makes me weird, but I have allergies so there’s about a month and a half block of time where I’m taking Claritin and am just weird most of the time.
Anyway, last year, I got the flu or something and was also taking Mucinex. I told Shiro I couldn’t work one day by email except I couldnt think of what to say, so my medicated self decided to make a Fry meme. I think it said something like “Not sure if I can go perform an exorcism with a head the size of Gehenna, bottom text.” I didn’t think until the next day that it probably wasn’t socially-acceptable to tell the Paladin you weren’t coming on a job via Tumblr style memes. When i woke up, i found that he’d printed it out and taped it to the fridge.
Yukio: Oof you guys i turned on my laptop that I used to use back then.
IT WAS ON THE DESKTOP. THIS IS WHAT I SENT.
It’s even worse than i remember it

My #1 post of 2022
Apparently my best friend has never seen any of the How to Train Your Dragon movies, and I'm due for a rewatch, so we're watching them together.
We're about halfway through the first and there's two things that really stand out to me this time around:
Hiccup is funny. Like, really funny. (Sure, he's funny in the later movies, too, but there's something uniquely amusing about the self-deprecating humor of an awkward and lonely fifteen year old with absolutely no filter. It's great.)
All things considered, Stoick is actually.... a pretty decent parent. I mean, I've been reading a lot of HTTYD fics lately, and many of them portray him as this awful, domineering guy who doesn't care about his son AT ALL until he becomes "useful" or whatever. And watching the OG movie, especially from a more grown-up perspective on things, he's really not all that bad. Sure, he's not exactly getting any 'parent of the year' awards. He's a human, and he makes mistakes, but, considering the circumstances, he really is trying his best.
