Fuck it I’m about to add historical costume consultant to my resume
#this man#how are you asking to borrow costumes with less than a week’s notice#and he said he’s asking us because he wants to “’get it right for the period’#when the earliest year we interpret is quite literally 40 years after the play is set#like this AD did not even do a cursory google search for “’what did women wear in 1850’#or what year our house was built#or even look at the promotional material from the original production of the play#and like? who is doing your costumes?#I get this is just for a promo shoot and you don’t have costumes for the performance yet#but surely whoever the costume designer is could have at least googled what you’re going for????#this is driving me insane#and also the exact reason I pivoted from working in theatre to working in living museums and living history#if you have the internet to email me these dumbass questions you can google what the fuck Harriet Tubman would’ve worn#(the play is about Harriet Tubman)#they also originally wanted to produce it on our site which#a) we don’t have an actual theatre it’s a lecture hall with the worst imaginable lighting#and b) our guy wasn’t even actually an abolitionist so to perform that here would be giving him too much credit#and c) the historic house next door was owned by an actual abolitionist and anti racist and equal rights activist#there’s just so much to unpack here#museum musings#tales from the servant’s wing

Civilian Gothamites realizing they can get vengeance through Sword!Robin
Gothamites figuring out if they happen to mention a rogue treating animals poorly within hearing range of sword!Robin that rogue will be in custody with at least four fractures and a concussion and Damian being completely aware that like 63% of these people are lying but it’s the only way he can get experience with the nonlethal takedowns he’s experimenting with bc everyone keeps complaining about how he treats his opponents and allies
Like he’s guiding a civilian to safety and they mention that “this would be the worst thing to happen to me today if riddler didn’t stab my fucking cat” and this civilian does not own a cat but they did own a car that was just paid off but riddler fucking crushed it with a stupid ass hot air balloon that’s shaped like a fucking question mark and Damian is aware of this bc he was the one that verified the insurance claim (but he’s been looking for a reason to punch Nygma in the throat since his last Arkham escape when he called Damian a moron)
And he also knows that if he plays along with it and says ‘as if I’d let that gaudy and tactless imbecile get away with committing such atrocities’ when prompted that he’ll get away with barely a slap on the wrist like he gets three half hearted but long lectures he’s not going to listen to and an online sensitivity training seminar he goads Tim into completing (Damian and Tim 100% try to trick each other into doing work they don’t want to do and full heartedly believe the other has no idea what they’re doing)
Bruce’s tendency for finding small crashouts at risk of becoming future rogues in Gotham and deciding they need love & supervision but what actually happens bc he’s so fucking awkward is they get almost the same amount of supervision just with like an hour of intense helicopter parenting a week but honestly besides that they just have more money and resources to do fuck shit
Tim 🤝🏾 Damian: using the manipulation tactics they learned from their mothers then later improved on with help from an assassin cult and bat/cape interrogation questioning techniques on the homies
#Both central city and gotham are referred to as crashout central and no one’s ever sure which city is being mentioned unless a cape is named#random Gotham civilians outsourcing a rogue getting their ass kicked to a middle schooler with a katana is fucking funny#Damian & Tim 100% try to trick each other into doing work they don’t like and definitely believe the other has no idea what theyre doing#Whenever damian gets benched the civilians protest until he’s back on duty#and are just generally unhelpful like ‘answer your questions?? That’s crazy I got a question for you: where’s my guy??’#Random gothamite: Batman’s so mean like free my guy 😔 he didn’t even do anything?? He’s just a little guy#Their friend visiting from out of state who’s pretty sure they saw that kid fuck up a dinosaur with no backup: 🤨 ikyfl#the loa ninja who came for a welfare check: you’re joking right???#Sword!robin#robin 5#Robin V#gothamites definitely tried to count the robins but they change names heights & costumes so often that no one’s really sure#so there’s angry!Robin nerd!Robin emo!Robin blonde!Robin and sword!Robin#but there’s also the theories of robin being an amalgamation of every child ghost in Gotham or a shapeshifter with an emo dad#only in gotham#dc civilians#Damian Wayne#Damian Al Ghul#Damian Al Ghul Wayne#dc robin#robin#dc comics#Civilian Gothamites: that polite young man!!#The bats & everyone else that knows Damian: 🤨#Damian currently using psychological warfare against scarecrow a rogue w/ a doctorate in psych and winning: dr crane?? more like dr cringe#Damian: sometimes I just get the urge to weep inconsolably not out of fear but bc I know you believe yourself to be a threat & that’s false#Insurance companies in Gotham either make so much money it’s insane or every employee has 746 hits out on them at all times

Aging rockstar Eddie Munson who goes viral on tiktok after dueting a fancam of him and Stevie that is backed by the bi wife energy audio.
It's shaky, clearly a spur of the moment response, Eddie is obviously captivated for a second by a clip of Stevie that starts to play. He sighs and directs his attention back to the audience. "I love my beautiful wife, the sun to my moon, the light of my life."
You can just make out another voice from somewhere in the background call out, "Love you too!"
"But I did not survive being an openly gay teenager in the 1980s in rural Indiana to be called a heterosexual!"
He zooms in closer to his face, it's unclear whether this was intentional, "I did not go through a sexuality crisis in the early 90s when she transitioned, to be called a heterosexual."
Stevie comes out from somewhere behind where Eddie is ranting to drape herself around his shoulders, "Oh that's a good picture of us." The original video is a step above thirst trap and the picture in question is a pap shot of Stevie and Eddie from a long past Halloween. Stevie is in the famous Farrah onepiece and Eddie is in first husband Lee Majors' Six Million Dollar Man red tracksuit.
"You just like it cause we actually ran into Farrah and she liked your hair."
"It was also-"
She isn't dislodged as Eddie fails, well practiced at staying on her perch. "I didn't cancel the back half of our 1995 tour because of morning sickness to get called a HETEROSEXUAL!"
Stevie's smile is indulgent and soft, it wrinkles the corners of her eyes in soft crows feet that betray her age. "You can be trans and straight."
"A fucking ally then!"
She's got a sage Mona Lisa smile as the video ticks to a close, "I love my husband, and he's actually bi."
#steddie#t4t steddie#transfem steve harrington#stevie harrington#trans eddie munson#do you ever get the bi wife energy song stuck in your head for weeks at a time cause your brain is broken?#anyway i am enchanted by the idea that both halves of steddie gave eachother little bi crisises#little freshman stevie getting butterflies over this charismatic sophomore#eddie who has been sure hes gay since he can remember being completely blindsided by his attraction to stevie#is this a vecna verse thing who knows#maybe they went their seperate ways and came back together but either way#stevie also likes the halloween picture because thats their first halloween with their daughter technically#eddie had to scrap his original costume plans because he started showing#idk i just imagine a famous eddie keeping his personal life private and then people make assumptions about this guy and his wife#and those assumptions are that hes straight and that just wont stand

the idea that Orym has a death wish has led to some of the most laughable meta I've seen. Orym tells his closest friend - who has a penchant for delightfully wild impulses, is possibly important to the enemy's plot, and is about to see her biological father, about whom she has all kinds of complicated feelings - to not take unnecessary risks and people are handing out pamphlets on "a Treatise on Orym's Belief in Doom; Being an Account of His Deep-seated Hypocritical Actions Regarding The Pact With Morrigan, Hag and Fatestitcher" and it's like. idk man maybe they're going to be separated in a very clearly dangerous scenario and she specifically is in an emotionally charged and tricky one and he is saying "be careful", a normal thing friends might say to each other.
#people will be like Liam O'Brien is a shakespearian actor and professional sadboy (I disagree w/the latter but. that's the consensus)#and then when he plays characters who say kinda dramatic pronouncements they'll be like WHAT DOES IT MEAN WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN#babygirl this is mr. you were not born with venom in your veins he talks like this in d&d all the time good gravy#cr tag#i do imagine people with bad takes especially on twitter handing out pamphlets with bad takes like they're a really stupid Thomas Paine#like FULLY in the town square of Plymouth Plantations or Mystic Seaport in costume crying out about their meta#and i am a tourist like man where's the shop where i can for reasons having nothing to do with this living history museum obtain a geode

h-how do you ever finish any of your work? genuine question because you seem to be productive despite your agreste syndrome and I need to learn your ways. but also how do you ever finish any of your work
unclear. last night i stayed up and finished a report worth 25% of my grade at about 5am, arrived on time for my 9am lecture, and spent about half of it zoned out while thinking about seventeen year old emilie agreste. and i was one of the most active participants in the class discussion
#in some ways it IS the move to go to grad school right out of undergrad#because your body can still sort of operate like a college kid#i’m on about 3ish hours of sleep rn and this morning it felt SO over but now i’ve eaten something and we’re so back#i also don’t really do caffeine. except sometimes i’ll go get one of those panera death lemonades#i might be able to snag a short nap before work#but anyway about seventeen year old emilie. i was thinking abt how she was in that movie solitude and adrien said she was seventeen#WAIT. NO. HE SAID SHE WAS SEVENTEEN IN THAT PHOTO ON HIS DESKTOP NOT IN THE MOVIE#well. okay whatever i’m gonna tell you what i was thinking about anyway#OKAY i’m back i just checked the wikipedia page and then i watched the end of gorizilla. to make sure i’m not lying. because i’m normal.#anyway i was thinking about the solitude film and how it’s super rare and old and obscure and whatever. and how apparently#emilie wrote it herself and andre produced it#and i’m thinking about how gabe was discovered by audrey and that’s how he got his start in the fashion industry#so now i’m like?? did gabe and emilie first meet on the set of solitude? because gabe was designing costumes or whatever?#and that’s how audrey found him? have people already thought about this??#also i just checked and it doesn’t say emilie’s last name in the credits and also it’s ‘graham films’ with the twin rings logo m#so i’m assuming she’s still emilie graham de vanily at that point#anyway it comes back to seventeen year old emilie because i started imagining seventeen year old runaway emilie having her new life in pari#after escaping her british nobility life#and the first thing she does is write and star in an original movie. of course.#and she meets this repressed bisexual punk upstart costume designer who is so the opposite of everyone she’s ever known#and he’s immediately so unhealthily obsessed with her. which she appreciates.#and then they proceed to have the most toxic doomed evil relationship of all time#also she gets cheated because once gabe gets money he represses himself SO hard that he is now exactly like all the people emilie grew up w#but at least he’s still obsessed with her#this is what i was thinking about during class today. i don’t know how i get anything done either.#ml#anna rambles#asks

The scene where WoTW and Howl were running across the yard might have been so confusing and creepy though the Megan's point of view.
Imagine sitting at home, minding your business, washing dishes or playing in the yard, and suddenly this weird-looking lady, dressed as she just escaped from some kind of really unique and rich troop, wearing a dark, gorgeous, medieval-like dress and high heels, that's almost impossible to buy at the store nowadays just... appears before your eyes.
She stands on the grass, leaning on the swing and you're already reaching for your home phone to call the police because how the hell did she find a way into your house?? Except you didn't have enough time to do it because right after that some kind of weird, physical force starts dragging you to this strange, creepy woman, and you want to tell her to go to hell with her stupid tricks, but you can't.
And you kids, waking right alongside you, cannot do anything, too. You can't all possibly be mad, can you?
An when it starts to get even weirder and unavoidable, your jobless, potential-losing piece of a brother, comes into a scene, jumping through the damn fence, dressed in the same weird-looking costume, as If he escaped the same wery troupe (seriously, If you weren't so worried about your kids and unnatural forces right now, you'd think what would happen If people saw this atrociously long sleeves and eye-burning colours), and just...runs at the mysterious woman right away, dragging away your daughter in some kind of sport-like movement. Your brother and the woman then start running across the yard in the most ridiculous way possible.
The force stops. Your brother and the woman go out of sight. You take your kids into the house and pretend this never, ever happened in your lifes.
#look I'm a big fan of “Howl tells Megan and his other fam about Ingary eventually”#BUT REALISTICALLY#this situation is like the worst possible to tell them about it#like “oh yeah this woman you saw was a really powerful witch who wanted to take captive and probably unalive you all#“... because I jilted her a year ago and she didn't like it. Now she thinks she has to destroy everything I love to get me to fight her...”#“...and also I'm a wizard in a magical fairytale other world country btw”#Like sorry but I don't think he'd do that#he's a slither-outer#after all#like he won't just tell everyone everything in their faces#ESPECIALLY when it's his respectable™ sister#(with all my love for Meg)#so it's even more interesting for me to look at the excuses he could come up with in this citation#he can be like guys I joined that magician crew without telling you#and there's was this really strange woman#and one day she's just suddenly gone crazy#and she somehow got into your yard and I run after her in my really cool stage costume and#and she... specialises on you know psychological tricks#so she was able to put this magic trick up#and ehehe I saved everyone so know we're good!#©#hmc book#howl's moving castle book#hmc#howl's moving castle#howell jenkins#megan parry

i think one of the criticisms i have with the new season and gatwa’s doctor is that he doesn’t have a definitive outfit™️
give him a different fit once in a blue moon sure but please keep him in a consistent outfit/elements of the same outfit for the rest of the time. please
#let the doctor wear the same clothes for a few episodes running#that’s all i want please#like every doctor you close your eyes and can see what their costume was but we can’t really do that with gatwa#dw#doctor who#rtd critical#anti rtd#like gatwa has had a different outfit every episode this season including episodes where it wasn’t really needed#like period episodes sure chuck a costume on but random futuristic/modern day episodes??#i hate the disneyifcation of who

Ouhhhh friendship I love friendship……..
#I’m reading volumes 14-16 of the ouran manga OOUGHHH MY HEART#I love this weird little friend group so much its unreal#like u have this charming sweeps you off your feet prince but he’s actually a huge lovable idiot with a kind heart and his friends#who are all misfits that he reached out to and drew in because of his kindness and own weirdness like that shits TIGHT BRO#and the trauma part where he has some deep seated issues with love bc he thinks that itll break a family apart like with his mom#how his family isnt allowed to be together because his mom and dad fell in love and how he says he wants to build a big house#so that way one day everyone will get along as a family like. all he wants is not to lose everyone and the only way to do that is#by maintaining a certain order.. he both wants a complete family so bad and doesnt want anything to sour between anyone#so he assigns each of his friends a family role based on how he sees them and YEAH its mostly played for giggles and tamakis#already weird so its his way of showing theyre close to him but. god damn this boy has LAYERS#it also feels kinda meta towards how found family tends to get thrown around to assign characters as 'siblings' or family roles instead of#using it to describe characters who are close enough to be each others family. cuz tamakis doing that EXACT THING in a way tht#ties in with his character and i have to say its fascinating using that within the story itself and its completely plausible#theres a lot of things i can say about ouran that are good bad and questionable but. god i love it when characters are niceys to each other#i remember i really liked the mall episode bc kyoya and haruhi got to spend time together and their relationship isnt very close#but it was really nice to see their personalities bounce off each other. i think i also wouldve liked to see haruhi alone with kaoru#i also firmly believe all of the hosts are at least a little in love with haruhi and this can be anything like endearing romantic cuz like#who DOESNT love haruhi. kyoya i think would want to study her under a microscope like his fascination with her draws him in#but im fucking obsessed with whatever haruhi and tamaki have going on because YES hes obsessed with her YES he jumps at the chance to#put her in a cute costume but haruhi? she just fucking goes with it because she knows hes fun to be around even if hes a little wacky abt i#theyre all so.

Fallen Sydney is definitely the type that enthusiastically buys all sorts of kinky outfits. For themself as much as their s/o haha
Sydney buying a bunch of outfits she really wants to see on Dee. Forgetting she will have to convince/beg her for weeks to actually wear them
#sydney trying to rizz Dee up to get her into the incredibly tiny bunnysuit: PLEASEPLEASE PLEASE PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEEEEEEPLEASEPLE#im kinda torn I think Dee has a thing for costumes as well but she already has to wear them a lot for the stripclub which is like….#sure.. it’s work.. whatever. but the association sticks#and then on the other hand I think she’s partly embarrassed that she’s into it. maybe even ashamed#smth smth this shitty town makes you feel like a piece of meat so it’s difficult to feel like you have ownership over your own body and kink#I love this hc because it’s so fun and cute but Sydney would need to spend soo much money on custom tailoring for Dee (realistically)#which would be suuuuuper expensive and makes the hc way less fun lmao (like Sydney would NOT have the budget for that)#< I keep doing this but i can’t help and be acutely aware how difficult it is to get cute clothes for anyone who’s not thin#sydney the fallen#dee the defiant#dol pc#on one hand I feel a bit guilty that I keep making these posts about Dee on the other hand… this is my blog I can do what I want and..#the blog name kinda indicates it don’t it (fork spotted in kitchen etc etc)#doldykes

having a complicated emotional experience at the [cultural event]. mitigating with fried dough balls. so it goes
#chatter#on the one hand wow i miss being like very very good at something.#on the other hand i do not miss the exploitation the emotional and verbal abuse and the insistence that i subordinate my every#feeling and desire to the cause of putting a feather in my seniors' caps (my own personal clout and recognition negligible natch)#on the OTHER other hand holy lateral microaggressions batman#on the other other OTHER hand if you yell at my own personal mom one more time i will break your femurs with a tire iron#and i don't CARE that i'm out of line for it.#...on the other other other OTHER hand. why was i never costumed in form-fitting jewel tone velvet. you fuckers.#any recovering dance girlies out there who can hit me with an amen

Honestly it is very funny when terminally online "alt" dorks get past like entry level industrial music and are horrified at the depravity like this is the kinkster faggot genre what are you doing here if youre a pearl clutcher
#this genre was built on the backs of percieved freaks get out if youre not down with that#🐆#and even the entry level stuff is still very visually kink-based a lot of the time like. how are you shocked.#i just think fake ''alt'' dorks think everything actually alternative is a joke cause haha WHO COULD POSSIBLY BE LIKE THIS#and then they meet ppl who really are like that and theyre repulsed bc this whole thing is just a costume for them to wear#but to us its like an actual lifestyle and we are doing it unironically#idk im fuckin drunk did that make sense

Huge fan of that one time Wally time traveled and became a better father figure to himself than his father ever was
Also the absolute comedy of Wally West, The Flash, walking into Wally West's room, which is fully decked out in Flash merch, and asking "Soooo... Big Flash fan?"
Sir.
#Wally West. Sir. you cannot design your kid flash costume for your younger self. have you heard of a paradox#also at one point baby wally was like 'you look like my dad. are you related to him?'#and wally was like '....... YEP. lets change the topic!'#dc#dc comics#the flash#kid flash#wally west#also extremely sad because wally had been talking nonstop about his one uncle who was the first person to believe in him#and he didn't remember his name but wally always remembered what he said and it kept him going through the dark times#like literally he asked max if he knew who it was and max was like '?? do i know a random guy who had a conversation with you one time? no'#AND THEN IT WAS HIM. HE WAS THE PERSON WHO HAD FIRST BELIEVED IN HIMSELF

I think this is the first time in years that I’ve decided on a basic Halloween costume. Like usually I am so original but I couldn’t find anything for the very few creative ideas I had 😔
#like I’m usually so creative and sometimes obscure that nobody knows who I am#like for example I wanted to do Barbie the island princess this year soooo bad but I couldn’t find a dress in the right color that’d work 😔#also wanted to do starlight but that’s extremely hard to make on your own and all the premade costumes suckkkkk#I wanted to avoid being basic so bad that I thought about redoing an old costume I did two years ago#even the time I was Bucky I’d say was pretty original bc nobody knew who that was except these two girls I met in line for the club#and a few nerdy guys I met in the gas station#which now that I’m thinking ab it it’d be fun to just be Bucky again as a second costume#bc I still have most the stuff for one but two id look way better than when I did it a few years ago bc I’ve lost 70lbs since then#so I’d look way sexier but also I already have a bunch of pics in that and I don’t wanna post the same costume twice

I think the reason trans girl mob goes off so hard is because… the show is inherently about a kid who’s an outcast learning to be his best most happy self. Like people always say be yourself yeah but that usually doesn’t actually mean anything.
Mob psychos thesis statement is you are NOT special, and that is beautiful because it means you can be anything. Just because you’re a good artist and a shit singer doesn’t mean you should do art instead of singing, you should do what makes you happy and strive to be as good at it as you can, because mediocre is an achievement when you aren’t special, it’s about self improvement, not being the best.
And then you get a kid, who’s constantly terrified of his own emotions and how they effect others and is seen as naive, who doesn’t fit the stereotypical masculine world well (weak as hell, cares a lot about emotions, pacifist) and doesn’t fit the stereotypical feminine world well either (reserved usually, in the body improvement club, horrible fashion, not able to read a room) and you say part of being the best, happiest possible version of yourself is realizing your gender, and it’s not a sad thing, and it’s not about anyone else, it’s about being the best you possible.
I don’t think mob in show is trans or would be any better or worse at being a girl than he is at being a boy, because it isn’t about that. It’s about the idea that when people do the things that are important to them without regard for what other people might think and only focus on being who they want to be (not who they think they should be, not on who they are, who they WANT to be, who would be both a good person and make them happy) that that is the best, happiest, most successful version of them. And I think that’s beautiful.
#trans girl mob#trans mob#Trans Sheigo Kageyama#mob psycho 100#meta thoughts#trans#just thinking about if everyone’s not special then maybe you can be who you want to be again#and you’re the protagonist of your own life#might be because I saw the episode with the depressed room and the cultural fair again#and how they thought the one guys problem was being unable to grasp his own life#mob and serizawa both having breakdowns about possibly wasting their lives and mob deciding he doesn’t want his age#to be the only thing that changes#and how mob worked really really hard on the costumes and the result was no one said anything good but no one complained#and how he got 70 in the marathon which isn’t a lot but is over TWO HUNDRED places further than before#and body improvement club in general#the beauty in you don’t have to be special and aren’t and that’s fine because everything is still beautiful and impressive in its own way#like yeah I might be living in one room and sharing living space with people I don’t know#instead of my own apartment or house#but I’m still fucking doing it and I’m happy and it’s cheaper than my last place#it’s important to hold onto and chase what matters to you#without clinging to things just because you always have and it feels safe or like you want it bc it used to be important#and to not want soemthing so bad that what you have now doesn’t matter#but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t still reach for something better#anyway I’m rambling if you haven’t watched mob psycho go do it it genuinely changed my life for the better

There are a couple tropes I really love in the space of Miraculous Ladybug fan works, but quite possibly my favorite is when the miraculous holders just get creature from using their powers.
Like yeah, I would say that hosting the power of an abstract concept given sentience, that got shoved into the shape of an animal and bound to a piece of jewelry, would kinda mess with your body a bit.
The little bit of this we get in canon is basically that Adrien loves being a cat and the whole Tikki munches incident.
But I love it when people give them ears and wings and tails, give them eyes that aren't quite human anymore. Fuck with their gender and their sense of body. Sometimes it's body horror, sometimes it's just aesthetic. Love it either way.
I just think it's so fun, a lot of the time it's combined with the like "when a holder and the kawami really respect and bond with each other there's nothing that can be done except having magic bleed into the holder" I think that's fun, but also just making the animal of the kwami a bigger deal is fun. Like if you're going to make it a ladybug you might as well give her wings and antenna and mirrored eyes.
#yes I do like ml#there's just so many characters I like to mess with in my head#also sue me I'm trans and have a certain respect for body horror. for the forced change of your physical self especially when you chose it#anyway I alwasys ramble in the tags#I set up this side blog to hide random writing thoughts I had and oh boy do I have a lot and none of them are on here#and recenetly (and by recently I mean like the past year) I've been hit with so many ml thoughts)#they're all gay#and some of them are cohesive#actually a lot of them revolve around chloe and au's where she gets a meaningful improvement arc#give that gay girl intresting stuff#miraculous ladybug#ml#although one of my ideas is also my very fun very gender take of ml where to conceal their identities ladybug and chat start pretending#to be different people under the masks like they don't need to like explicitly say. they just#switch costumes a lot and they like slyly hint at maybe theres dozens of people who pass around the miraculous to make sure that their#Identities are always safe#and to support the act they also start changing the genders they present as as holders. everyone is like “it's clearly multiple people”#and during this process marinette and Adrien are both like slowly having personal gender revelations#and gabe is like tearing his hair out over having to fight this secret group of superheros that he can never find or catch#but he's still just getting his ass kicked by two kids who're doing the world's most successful costumes change bits#it's like those “fake dating” tropes where they're like “oh but we really do love each other” but with gender#“oh I've got a great idea lets pretend to be different genders sometimes”#cut to “hmh ok so I think I'm not pretending anymore”#oh I do always ramble in the tags
