#but i had a good laugh

[beamorgan]

One time in primary school they rented a May pole to teach us May pole dancing, presumably for reasons of Joy and Whimsy. During the second lesson, the teacher gathered us around.

"This is a May pole," she said.

Yes, we'd been introduced in the first lesson. It was still perfectly identifiable with the long ribbons hanging off it in different colours.

"Please," she said, with the air of a woman with regrets. "When you tell your parents about it, call it May pole dancing. I am not teaching you pole dancing. That is something else."

Turns out one of the kids was less than precise in his recounting, and his mother came in with Concerns. Oh to have been a fly on the wall for that conversation.

To this day, I cackle at the image of the teacher, on the cusp of retirement, deciding she had no fucks left to give - she was going to teach twenty eleven year olds to pole dance

the public reaction to i saw the tv glow is like a perfect case study into how cis people take up queer spaces and unknowingly mock and enjoy trans suffering. sitting in the theater, i had a pit in my stomach the entire time. so many times, i would tear up and then someone else in the theater would laugh. and i wouldn’t cry because how would they look at me when the lights came back on? because they don’t see it. they don’t see the pain. they think it’s funny. i left the theater completely silent, not saying a word to my boyfriend and he didn’t say a word to me until partway into the drive home. the people around us immediately got to picking it apart, explaining what it all meant to each other, dumbing it down, making theories. cis people see the the movie, just like transness, as something to debate. a conversation. something to dissect because it makes them uncomfortable if they don’t understand it in their easily digestible way.

When the misunderstanding is mutual but they’re both so sweet about it (coffee shop au edition)

Inspired by the tags below (originally on this post) from @blahblaheverythingisgay and @lovelyprincejehan accompanied by some thoughts:

thank you for bringing this GALAXY brain take to my attention 😂 this guy comes in, all cagey about his past and his scars, always wearing baggy clothes but complaining about compression clothes (being on the run does a number on your joints and muscles), picking out a name for himself??? OBVIOUSLY he’s trans right

They somehow manage to have like three separate conversations about it without realizing they’re talking about two very different scenarios. Andrew only was so wrong for so long because scars on their own (and even being a criminal lbr) are such non-issues that it didn’t even occur to him that Neil could be talking about anything less important than being trans lol

Andrew had his little crisis about it and landed pretty solid on yeah he’s still into Neil regardless, and yeah he’s still super gay. He’ll figure out the rest from there. The only thing he didn't prepare for was Neil being uh. Cis

I love how Twilight literally made the minimum effort to disguise Franky as a woman XD Realistically, it should be easier for him to disguise Franky, a 1'66cm tiny guy as a woman than to disguise himself, a 1'87cm muscular guy. I know he did it on purpose just to make fun of Franky.

Look at him, that's the face of someone who's laughing his head off inside

Even the first thing Twilight did when he met Franky was to laugh at him, i cant- HASDG

But now that I think about it, that was probably the first time Loid laughed in a long, long time. Damn this post was supposed to be funny-

I often see canon Holmes and Watson's default state pictured as

and I think that's a lot funnier

This is how the conversation actually went

brought to you by me and @stravaganza being silly <3

while i was sick i had an idea and wrote down the following note for not-sick crabs: "pickle boy sun"

so i present to you

pickle boy sun

(based on the brooklyn 99 meme of course)

when he's not working, Sun enjoys experimenting with new dishes! one of those is his pao cai jar, a Sichuanese pickle brine that can last for years if taken care of properly. Sun's is almost 20 years old and it was a gift from his late Boss before he passed.

bonus! when it's Sun's turn to prepare family meal at the restaurant:

Moon doesn't like the pickles (he doesn't like sour things)

I just ordered a custom candle for Hermes from Darkly Divine Crystals and I’m OBSESSED!!! It smells like the forest and has citrine, pyrite, malachite, bay leaves, and chamomile in it!

I asked Hermes his thoughts on it and the conversation basically went like this:

(I used tarot cards, upright was yes, reverse was no.)

Me: Hermes, do you like your candle?

Hermes: No.

Me, getting a little anxious: Do you dislike your candle?

Hermes: No.

Me: Okay, maybe I need to be more specific with my words. Do you love your candle?

Hermes: Yes :D

At this point I could feel him laughing at me, and if that’s not an accurate representation of his personality I don’t know what is

Many thanks to @rewuyuu for the commission!

hello everyone do you have a moment to learn about Sampo and Jing Yuan friendship propaganda because IN THIS ESSAY I WILL--

(based on that one Jason Momoa meme, because this is so their energy)

Edit: said essay--

(obligatory these are just personal headcanons of a friend and mine other interpretations are valid)

-They both go :3 they are both some of the few characters that make that face and it is adorable.

-They both conceal their true deeper feelings behind teehee funny man/lax eepy personas [this is assuming the Funny Bone video is canon to Sampo. It was made for Hoyofair but Hoyoverse showcased it in the Live concert event so I consider that canon until Hoyoverse says otherwise]

-On the topic of that both had a tight-knit group of friends they hung out with when they were younger and were ride or die with. Unfortunately, this turned out to be die as all of their friends died (some of the HCQ are still alive but are either reincarnated or so changed/driven mad from Mara the version Jing Yuan knew had died) while Sampo and Jing Yuan were the only one out of their pals to survive.

-But both had to move on and continue to anyway, whether they wanted to or not

-Due to these things in common they would understand and relate to each other in a deep, meaningful way that few others in their lives could. There would be a certain level of liberty to their friendship because of it. They'd be able to release pent-up emotions and trauma as well as sympathize and empathize with each other. They'd be able to support each other and trust each other with the burdens of their pasts because of it. While not easy for these topics to come up initially, once they did they would find a safe space in each other for these topics. And from this would form a strong bond of trust.

-Not to mention Sampo would be a great way for master strategist ™️ Jing Yuan to keep tabs on what is happening throughout the galaxy in other places or gain valuable information for the Xianzhou Alliance. AND as Jing Yuan has expressed a lot his daily life is quite boring and loves to hear tales from the Astral Express's adventures he'd also love to hear all the wild antics Sampo gets up to because you KNOW Sampo has some wild tales to tell

-In happier news Sampo is very outwardly mischievous while Jing Yuan is also hella sneaky but in a different way usually. But when put together they bring out the utter gremlin in each other and are constantly messing with each other or having a prank war but it's all in good fun. It makes them both genuinely laugh a lot, breathing new life into their days.

-Also Mimi is either really affectionate with Sampo or bullying him (safely and gently) but it freaks Sampo out because she so beeeg. Jing Yuan finds it hilarious.
