This isn’t normal. This isn’t how life is supposed to feel. There is still time. It's scary but that's the point. Anyone else feeling decidedly abnormal here

[karmelarts]

i saw the tv glow being such a powerful work of existential horror that even trans people who havent seen it yet are fearful to watch it

procrastination is starting to have its consequences finally

Ever since Taemin came out with his own lightstick, I’ve been fantasizing about what the other SHINee members’ lightsticks would look like 🤔💎

fucking hate when I have a drawing concept stuck in my head that I simply can not do justice with my mediocre artistic "talent"

[dykedteach]

tried to do that hack where you use the back of a hairdryer to suck out the air of a bag like a vacuum type function and I think I almost set a fire

My Opinions on Dream’s Canon Romantic Relationships:

(Spoilers) (Don’t take this too seriously)

Nada - A dumpster fire that lasted like, what, a day? Two days? Nada lost her whole damn kingdom, fucking died, and got sent to hell for 10,000 years when Dream went full Nice Guy and couldn’t accept her rejection. Basically a woman gets punished for a man’s shitty behavior. I’m glad she slapped him. At least the sex was good? 😐

Calliope - Seemed to be a decent but not great marriage for most of it. Ended messily. Fortunately it was the normal kind of messy divorce and not, you know, being thrown in hell. She’s the mother of what seems to be Dream’s only child, and disagreed with his parenting. Probably for good reason. No idea how a Muse/Endless union produced a mortal.

Killalla of the Glow - Dream’s oldest known relationship. They seemed to be pretty happy together, though Dream was waaaay more into her than she was into him. Shockingly, Dream wasn’t responsible for this relationship ending. In contrast to Dream’s other exes, her life after Dream was pretty good.

Alianora - While we don’t actually see why they broke up, I’m gonna go ahead and believe both Alianora and Desire when they say that it’s Dream’s fault. This woman was literally hand picked by Desire for Dream and saved Dream and the Dreaming, only for Dream to be a shitty boyfriend (husband?). At least she got a skerry and a dreamstone out of it. That’s kind of like alimony, right?

“That female on—what’s that pretty plane with all the twinkly lights? You know where I mean.” - Never shows up in the comics, but Desire says “what [Dream] put her through wasn’t pretty at all” and, yeah, that tracks.

Thessaly - Thank fucking god we didn’t have to see this relationship on page. Thessaly is a fascinating character but an awful person. They were apparently sickeningly in love, but Thessaly was smart enough to realize that the relationship was Definitely Hurtling Towards Something and bounced. The real victims here are the residents of the Dreaming. They had to put up with post break up Dream.

HONORABLE MENTION:

Nuala - Girl, you are so lucky Dream never returned your feelings. You dodged a bullet. There is no way that relationship would have ended in anything but disaster.

[mercyburned]

thinking about k.aeya and r.osaria being the two least religious people in m.ondstadt + dark academia religious imagery and themes but only when it involves each other and the way he never steps inside the church of fa.vonius unless he's being paid to do it but he worships at her altar at every opportunity // @maquiscursed
