#and on a more serious note-

Hate it when j&h adaptations give Jekyll a female love interest, like bitch, he HAS a love interest who is introduced on the first page, and his name is MR UTTERSON THE LAWYER.
#well technically it's “gabriel john utterson' but those are the first 4 words of the book#my random stuff#dr jekyll and mr hyde#jekyll and hyde#and on a more serious note-#it tells me that the adaptation understood nothing about the novella#because the queer subtext* is almost domtext#*and yes i say subtext as opposed to coding because#Stevenson's purpose was to oppose the repressive victorian social structures#and the unspoken social codes and unnecessary laws surrounding what people could and couldn't do#and; yeah sure there were plenty of those for straight relationships#but doubly so for queer ones#queerness is SO important to this novella even though it's never overtly mentioned#edit: just saw a post that reminded me of this one and I'd like to add:#adaptations that give jekyll a female LI seem to make her ONLY a love interest without any development#and usually they only exist to get raped or killed by Hyde#it's. not great.

“these characters should be mentally healthy before they get together 😌” ummm no I actually think we should smash their mental illnesses together like clumps of play-doh and see what colors it makes
#they should live under each other’s skin in a way that’s weird to everyone else. actually.#also on a more serious note since this is getting notes mental illness does not preclude people from deserving love#or the ability to give and receive it#it also does not make you inherently toxic#sometimes people are just toxic anyways of course#and a lot of people enjoy a toxic ship and are relating that to this and that’s cool!#but like#if you believe that’s the only option you’re wrong buddy#people can be worse together but they can also be better#acting like a character or a person has to ‘fix’ their trauma or what have you to be worthy is. a fucking weird mindset.#but anyways!

"life doesnt get better, you just get stronger" does NOT include ages 11-17. life does in fact just get better from there. those years are dogshit. like, you do get stronger but its mostly just a factor of not being 11-17 anymore. positive thinking helps but it doesnt fix whatevers going on at 15, you have to brute force through that one raw
#i originally posted this as just a 'hey remember how fuckin bad middle/highschool was? shit was wild' type post but now#there are a bunch of teens in the notes being like 'oh my god are you serious? it gets better? im not stuck in hell forever??'#and im reminded that the only people who told teenage ella 'it gets better' were speakers at mental health assemblies#aka the least relatable people alive who were seemingly born to lie to you#so. uh. yeah im a certified adult who isnt here to lie or sugarcoat the realities of being a teenager#the only thing more certain than the pain is the transcience

Look at me. In the eyes. Lookatmeintheeyes. You're gonna train your dog to be comfortable in kennels. You're gonna teach them to tolerate strangers. You will do this for me. Because your dog will get sick. And it will go to the vet. And I will have to interact with your dog. And if it howls for twelve hours straight and tries to eat me whenever I touch it. Well I'll still be nice to it. But I would prefer if it was kennel trained at the very least.
#on a more serious note aggressive / anxious dogs cost more to hospitalize simply because they require more drugs to be handleable.#so if you wont do it for me. do it for the money it saves you.#it also delays care if we for example have to sedate for every xray. and limits treatment options to an extent.#hospital schmospital

thinking about how sanji is simultaneously one of the coolest and lamest characters in all of one piece. a suave badass with a heart of gold AND a pathetic, wet paper bag of a human being. every time he's on screen i'm swooning over him while also fighting through twenty layers of cringe. truly a man of multitudes.
#being a sanji fan is so hard#lol but on a more serious note i actually like that sometimes sanji can be....like that. it's endearing#one piece#black leg sanji#sanji

I see so many Locked Tomb posts about people saying they just realized Jod was lying in this or that scene, and this is where I realized that I interact with these books fundamentally differently from the rest of y’all. The moment I found out Jod set G1deon on Harrow everything he had ever and would ever say was considered null and void. To me he is a pathological liar and nothing he says is ever to be trusted. I’m obsessed with him.
#Tlt#john gaius#harrow the ninth#htn#htn spoilers#On a more serious note i firmly believe everything he says in nona is true to him but has to be filtered through the lies he tells himself#Eg that he is not a terrible person#And so still falls under the untrustworthy liar umbrella#The locked tomb

'Because it's not meant to be...'
#Bluey#brandy cattle#more run-off from Twitter#I'm bad at cross-posting -blows kazoo-#my art#on a more serious note ; I watched this and bawled#this show is an anomaly (to me) because it actually manages to live up to the hype#it's incredibly poignant#and....it happens to be about cartoon dogs

#this is a joke#as you can tell by the post directly below it#but everyone in the world reblogging it immediately took it seriously#and even people who know it is a joke will be confused regardless#because the idea of someone thinking like this despite them not being real is upsetting#I use a spoon it makes sense for my kind of rice#lots of people use their hands!#lots of asian countries have hands as the standard for eating rice#saying chopsticks is the main one in the notes is more stupid than the poll itself be serious

Favorite (derogatory) thing abt the Dr who fandom is that whenever anything gay happens in the show everyone freaks out like it’s the first time Dr who has ever Been Queer like this hasn’t been happening since before 2005
#doctor who#like are you guys ok did you forget about. everything#the doctor kissed a man in 1999#idk and that’s just one thing. there’s infinite examples#gotta say on a more serious note it’s pretty dismissive every time as well#just say you hated bill potts and go#maybe im just an edas fan but it’s been like firmly in my head for a decade at least that the dr likes dudes#are you people ok what do you want
