Your header is my favorite 🤩 cockles moment. They are so cute together. And watching them look like husbands on the red carpet being all cute and shit makes me giddy
yeah the 300th episode party was giving gay husbands goals.
and then this happened
it's the filter for me.
and then tv guide decided to insist.

Wait the Eternal's localized names are old English???
I thought they were just made up, I'm so sorry
And also, yeah, I totally also read the e in Seofon until just now, apparently

YES. YES THEY ARE. i mean most of them are!
youtube
The justification was that since the Eternal's Japanese name came from all over the world it would be confusing for a non-Japanese player who could recognize the numbers (like Siete would be confusing for Italians who'd just see 7 around, Quatre would be confusing for French speakers who would just see 4 around, Six would be confusing for most Latin Language ect) so they went instead with a version that is no longer in use.... and focusing on English.
I personally am not fan of the change because i think the international aspect of the initial name was to show that the Eternals are watching all over the skies, all over the world basically, and limiting them to Old English just... well. is limiting.
But at least there was indeed some thoughts into it.
and yeah same. French and Japanese are both Syllabic languages so it's basically easier -ish for French ppl to read romanized Japanese because we do have like 90% of the same logic in prononciation and there's just a few sounds that are not similar, but at least the prononciation logic is consistant (*side eye at English*)-- and i was taught that you need to pronounce every syllabe the way they're written. So even when they are using foreign name i tend to use this logic and i always read it Sé-o-fo-n . But that's so wrong because English still is there to spite me.
But oh well the more we know!

>Join a union
>Hear people constantly complaining that the current union leadership is super corrupt, it's all just the same ten guys making all the decisions in secret and nobody else in the union ever gets to know what's going on
>Go to the monthly union meetings that are completely open to all 1200 union members
>The only attendees are the same ten guys every month, giving detailed reports about everything that's going on

hey! there's zero esims left for the connecting gaza campaign as of today. i remember you promoting them earlier. could you give them a much needed boost?
oh dang! unfamiliar with that particular campaign, as I always donate via crips for e-sims because it's super easy to do, but regardless let's go people!

If my mom sees a significant amount of blood she gets lightheaded, and has fainted on some occasions. Once it happened when we were kids, I wasn't there to witness it but I heard the story from my dad. Basically my brothers, around 7 or 8 at the time, were playing outside while my mom was making their lunch, and she accidentally cut her finger. It wasn't anything serious, but it drew a fair bit of blood and she passed out. My dad saw this and rushed over, but he didn't really know what to do so he just sort of started slapping her to wake her up (not recommended, but he had no idea and panicked)
At that exact moment my brothers both came in from playing, and all they saw was our mom unconscious on the floor and our dad slapping her. So, like, without even saying a word to each other they both just INSTANTLY start whaling on him, like, full blown attack mode to defend our mom. Which obviously didn't help the situation, but she did wake up and everything was fine.
Now our dad says that he's actually really glad they attacked him over what they thought was going on, because it means he raised good boys. And I still think that's true, they're very good boys.

I Saw the TV Glow is such a uniquely, devastatingly queer story. Two queer kids trapped in suburbia. Both of them sensing something isn’t quite right with their lives. Both of them knowing that wrongness could kill them. One of them getting out, trying on new names, new places, new ways of being. Trying to claw her way to fully understanding herself, trying to grasp the true reality of her existence. Succeeding. Going back to help the other, to try so desperately to rescue an old friend, to show the path forward. Being called crazy. Because, to someone who hasn’t gotten out, even trying seems crazy. Feels crazy. Looks, on the surface, like dying.
And to have that other queer kid be so terrified of the internal revolution that is accepting himself that he inadvertently stays buried. Stays in a situation that will suffocate him. Choke the life out of him. Choke the joy out of him. Have him so terrified of possibly being crazy that he, instead, lives with a repression so extreme, it quite literally is killing him. And still, still, he apologizes for it. Apologizes over and over and over, to people who don’t see him. Who never have. Who never will. Because it’s better than being crazy. Because it’s safer than digging his way out. Killing the image everyone sees to rise again as something free and true and authentic. My god. My god, this movie. It shattered me.

the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"
just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible
