#I'm not tagging the inhumans

[why-the-heck-not]

me, a responsible being, working on the coding project as I should vs. me, a dysfunctional shithead, getting distracted by reading about brains (once aGAIN damnit (it's my favorite "I need to study my field but bc I should do that it's an impossible unthinkable feat now, so I'm reading about something else to fool my brain I'm still being productive"-topic))

like the motogp unlimited moment where joan is kinda terrified of him and marc looks like he's trying to figure out whether he can muster the energy to eat him

😂😂😂😂😂😂

This one is going to carry me through the day. Picturing cat marc contemplating with his tail swishing if he wants to raise his paw and squish this thing or go back to nap.

(extremely belated follow up to this)

referring to this clip from motogp unlimited, on the off chance anyone hasn't seen that masterpiece yet - in which we get to see mir on camera criticising marc for his towing addiction, mir panicking about the media reporting how he criticised marc for his towing addiction, and then mir telling first the honda guys and then marc himself how the media had made up that he had criticised marc for his towing addiction

say what you will about that show, but this clip is just absolute perfection. it has been living rent free in my head from the first time I saw it. the editing is on point... how it completely stitches up joan with the juxtaposition between him literally criticising marc and him insisting he totally hadn't been criticising marc... the way it cuts to a random clip of marc entering a building with the air of a trigger happy warlord, as if he's about to order joan's execution... joan talking to the honda guy - the "you'd better say to his face" line, mir visibly deeply unhappy at this response... hard cut to mir's tremulous explanation to marc. mir's gaze wandering somewhere bottom right while marc is serving full cannibal realness and is staring right at mir with a wide grin and dead eyes. the painfully obvious relief on mir's face when marc accepts his explanation. if you told me marc was sky high on painkillers during this whole conversation, I would not question it for a moment

this is not a grin I would want levelled at me. it's the kind of grin where I'd start worrying if I might find myself chopped up in pieces in the other guy's freezer in the immediate future. at this point in his life and his career, marc had bigger things to worry about than being criticised for something he had been repeatedly criticised for already and would be criticised for again countless times. this whole episode does matter in the vague sense that mir was the defending world champion who had replaced marc, but realistically it's just not the sort of thing marc will have spent more than two minutes thinking about. which was really mir's best hope - that marc simply could not be bothered to make space in the freezer for him

I compared this moment in the mind games post to casey suffering a mild case of headloss because he thought valentino had deliberately hidden his tyre compound from the competition (bridgestone had run out of paint) - and there is something to how your reputation for mind games can become so strong that eventually you don't really have to be doing any work because your competition will freak anyway. marc isn't actually doing anything in this clip... he's just vibing. admittedly he's doing so in that uncanny valley ever so slightly inhuman way he has about him, like he's currently hashing out the logistics of sauteing your liver, but he is just vibing

Idk man the more I think about it the more I feel like the idea of Vax becoming not just de-orbed but brought back mortal is like, maybe the most simultaneously literal and figurative Monkey's Paw allusion one can get, on top of missing the core themes of every main campaign character Liam has played.

Broke (2016): BBC Sherlock is a phenomenal piece of media and anything that seems like a flaw just hasn't been fully explored yet

Woke (2020): BBC Sherlock is an incredibly flawed series run by an egotistical writer, it never deserved the hype and is actively bad on so many fronts (especially representation)

Bespoke (2024): BBC Sherlock is flawed and bogged down by increasingly poor writing, which many fans refused to see while it was airing, leading to hugely misplaced expectations (particularly for the final series), AND it has the seeds of some compelling characterizations and portrayals, some genuinely solid performances, and touches--albeit imperfectly--on complexities that are still being discussed today (particularly as it relates to the relationship between Sherlock and John). The huge cultural impact of the show has created a massive pendulum effect in its public perception, leading to most people today remembering a caricature of the show (whether positive or negative) rather than appreciating its nuanced merits and failings...that being said Season 4 sucked

sometimes i think about writing a post-canon human loop who, by the time they rejoin the party a year or two later, has become terribly addicted to alcohol. but even though i'd probably find it satisfying to write i think it would be miserable to read lmao

lays down and stares at the ceiling. really wish it was as easy for me to ignore casual exorsexism as it seems to be for so many of you

[bucketsofmonsters]

Would you guys want me to post fanfics on here if they're still monster romance?? I asked this before for a one-shot and people said yes but this would be a long series I'd be posting weekly so I feel like I should gauge interest again.

I wish people talked more about headmates that act out the trauma the system has been through. I wish people acknowledged more often that we exist. And I hope that anybody reading this who does that in their system knows that your role in it doesn't make you unlovable if you don't want to be.

If you think that it is okay to make s*x a duty for your wife even when she doesn't want it and push her to do so, you're a vile man and not a patriarch and certainly not a Godly man.

Man if Marcy keeps ending up with like child protection services in all these fics over her parents being slightly distant then my parents should be in JAIL

Fuck it Friday

Tagged again by @theotherluciferr ahhh <3 <3 <3 We must share a similar time zone cause it is also Saturday for me but currently 1:30pm.

No idea what the rules of what you should share in these tag games are, so I decided to put up a snip from the next chapter of 'Lifeline' because I just had to laugh writing this and the chapter will be out tomorrow anyways. And also I have to go to work soon.

"Buck!" Christopher's loud voice from right beside his elbow startles him. Buck jumps, nearly losing his balance as his shoulder slips away from the door frame. He manages not to fall, catching himself on the doorframe and pulling himself upright, his other hand splayed dramatically over his heart. "Jeez, Chris, you scared the sh- uh, daylights, out of me!" "That's cause you were too busy pining after Dad," Chris retorts, rolling his eyes with a sly grin. "I called you like four times!" "You what - Pining after - I was not -" Apparently, his brain has forgotten the concept of how to English in the wake of Chris' accusation. "Do you even know what that means?" "Ugh, I'm thirteen, Buck, not three. Of course I know what it means. And," Christopher gives him a smug look. "You were totally pining." "Dios mio, how is this conversation even happening right now," Buck mutters, trying to ignore the heat building in his cheeks. And as if triggered by the sound of Buck using Eddie's favourite Spanish phrase so casually, Chris succumbs to uncontrollable laughter. He bends over, his laughter echoing through the room, a joyful chorus that even Buck's good-natured grumbling can't suppress.

I discovered how to find my mutuals but still have no idea who to tag and don't wanna in case it's bad form or they've already shared or anything so yup o.o
