#I love frivolity

[zagreusboon]

I do believe that watering down long known fashion movements to silly little trends that are devoid of societal significance is a problem but I also believe it's silly to hold the belief that it's insipid to dress purely for aesthetic and not to a particular subculture or political statement

I adopted a cat on Friday and I’m completely emotionally bound to this creature already. I’ve been home all weekend to help her settle in, and my phone is heading towards becoming 25% cat pictures by volume. I’ve moved furniture so that she can more easily access and sit on every windowsill in the apartment. Just now I turned to her on the couch and asked her what kind of movie she was in the mood for, even though she is a cat and does not know what media is. Her name is Perilla Pickle (Pickle being the name given to her by her foster parents when they found her) and she is the most perfect animal in the world.

yes i'm rooting for m*leven breakup because byler is neat but mostly? i'm rooting for m*leven breakup for the sake of el and mike.

to me, their romance was always a puppy love born out of a combination of social pressures, naïve curiosity, and a lack of true understanding regarding intimacy and romantic love and what it really is. it was real in that they do truly, deeply care about each other and they are close friends, maybe even shared an attraction, but a maturing romance is so much more than that. they've grown up and out of being boyfriend/girlfriend, and that's okay! i think television/film needs to show more often that most of us don't have definite "soulmates" or first childhood loves that we spend our whole lives with. it doesn't mean these relationships meant nothing and didn't impact us, it just means they've run their course and that something else is in the cards, and this is part of life!

i've always felt el was at her best and most confident self when broken up with mike, discovering who she was and what she liked alongside another girl her age instead of just relying on mike for mentorship on how to live in the real world. she deserves more of an opportunity to find herself, her autonomy, and her independence, and to love who she is, and she's made it clear she's felt insecure in the relationship with mike because she isn't being loved and understood the way she wants, needs, and deserves from someone who is her partner.

also, it's okay if mike doesn't love her in "the way he should". he is not obligated to love her romantically and stay in a relationship with her just because she's a girl, because she "needed someone", or because he cares about her a lot. he shouldn't be pressured into a romance if it's not truly coming from his heart. he deserves freedom to find out and honour who he is, too, instead of just staying in his non-functional first relationship — one he got into as a child, essentially — and defining himself that way because it's what's expected when a boy and a girl are close. he loves her in some way, yes, but it's okay if he doesn't feel comfortable or secure being her boyfriend anymore, for whatever reason that is. he's felt insecure too, and that's valid and it matters.

they are their own people and are steadily growing and changing every day. they need time to figure out who those people are, and it's become clear (at least in my opinion) that those people aren't meant to be a couple at this stage.

they deserve freedom. they deserve to grow up and be authentic to themselves and not feel like they need to lie for the sake of a relationship. they deserve to move on from this version of their relationship that isn't making them happy and rekindle the best part of their bond: their strong, beautiful friendship. they don't have to be a couple if it doesn't make them stronger and better and happier people.

i think it would be healthy and wonderful for a show, especially one consumed frequently by young adults, to show a relationship starting, progressing, and ending on good terms in this way. sometimes things don't work out, and that is okay.

I think Aziraphale is always bumming miracles off of Crowley because he's on a celestial budget.

When he gets discorporated in the bookshop, the quartermaster of Heaven threatens to take the cost of the flaming sword out of Aziraphale's celestial wages. What wages? What do angels value enough for it to be used as celestial currency? I'm betting they're paid in miraculous power.

That's why during Revolutionary Paris, Aziraphale was reprimanded for performing too many frivolous miracles. I don't think the frivolity was the problem, I think the "too many" was the problem. He went over budget and Gabriel got extra pissed when he saw what Aziraphale was spending his miracles on.

He gives such pretty heart eyes when he asks Crowley for a favor because girl is broke but still likes having nice things.

I know Neil is maths with his languages and stuff and Kevin is history and Aaron has the medicine biology whatever the title is but other than that and all the ravens doing business I literally have no clue

so unbelievably happy with my deep sea giant isopod figure

Ok it is time to show off my newly acquired blades. Of which there are many.

Yesterday, I got this damascus switchblade and this damascus butterfly knife. Both are things that are hard to find online, since there's varying legalities for them across the states. Both legal in Indiana tho ❤️

& a set of naruto kunai, since I've been so naruto brained recently.

And Today, I got:

A kukri! Which I wanted bc it's one of the blades you can have as Joker in p5

This damascus sword. Which is BEAUTIFUL, and probably my favorite of the bunch. She be oily, as a damascus, but she's so fuckin pretty. Just look at that hilt. I'm in love.

AND FINALLY, the longboy that's as long as my leg. Not as flashy as the damascus sword, but they're both real blades (as opposed to my prior swords, which are all cheap shit, even if they're beloved). And, again. This one is as long as my leg.

So satisfying to hold ❤️

@vitalphenomena as andy said: you should be like a nail.

and then we danced.

she stares at him. he stares at her. it's all very sergio leone. (mutt must have seen that movie three times, at least, and in a different language each time, when it was new and top-billed.)

he reaches first for the proverbial pistol in the side-holster. " i'll nail you to the wall, then, if you bring it up again. "

violent threat his words might be, he doesn't mean it. doesn't mean his voice or expression has to give that away. she should know him better than to expect that.

Listen. Back in my day, when you got popcorn in an assortment of flavors, it came with a cardboard divider to make sure that NONE OF THE DIFFERENT FLAVORS WERE TOUCHING! If you wanted to mix different flavors together, you could do that in your OWN bowl and that was your own business! But now? It's all mixed together! And do you think that "cheese" flavored powder isn't going to stick to the caramel popcorn?! Of course it does! And if you happen to ONLY like the caramel popcorn and not the cheese flavor? TOO BAD! YOU'RE SCREWED! The entire batch is contaminated now! This is an abomination! 😠
