Hello! I’m just curious if you would recommend the man from uncle series? I’ve heard about it and it looks fun but idk anything about it really other than it’s just like another 60s spy show. Im wondering what makes it special? I’ve been watching other 60s/70s shows so I’m hoping I’d like this one too :]

yes i do recommend the man from uncle (though i do want to add a caveat for period typical racism and xenophobia/occasional mild sexism)! i think that the show's earlier two seasons are their strongest, a good balance of stakes-driven drama and smart moments of comedy; napoleon solo and illya kuryakin are also just very fun characters and robert vaughn and david mccallum have great chemistry; overall i find it a good show to put on while winding down or to have on in the background while doing other tasks, never super heavy but with enough seriousness (for the most part) to keep the viewer engaged

Being a perfectionist is actually the worst thing to have happened to me because why am I chronically all or nothing about everything in my life

New rdr2 playthrough experiment: find an abandoned house/building with a bed that Arthur can sleep in and just pretend it's your house for the whole run.

If any of the gang needs ya, they can come and pay you a visit!

shout out to this scene from the last Olympian that’s been kicking around my brain since 2013

image description under the cut

Start ID.

Image 1: a digital illustration of Percy Jackson holding Pandora’s jar. Inside the jar is the spirit of hope, emitting a glow onto Percy’s face. Percy is looking at the spirit and smiling tenderly. Percy has tan skin and black hair, with a grey streak. Standing protectively over Percy and the jar is Hestia, smiling down on them.

Image 2: A close up on Elpis, the Spirit of Hope, inside Pandora’s jar.

Image 3: A close up on Percy’s face.

Image 4: A close up on Hestia’s face.

Image 5: An excerpt from The Last Olympian by Rick Riordan. The last three lines are highlighted. The excerpt reads:

“I picked up Pandora's jar. The spirit of Hope fluttered inside, trying to warm the cold container.

"Hestia," I said, "I give this to you as an offering."

The goddess tilted her head. "I am the least of the gods. Why would you trust me with this?"

"You're the last Olympian," I said. "And the most important."

"And why is that, Percy Jackson?"

"Because Hope survives best at the hearth," I said. "Guard it for me, and I won't be tempted to give up again."

The goddess smiled. She took the jar in her hands and it began to glow. The hearth fire burned a little brighter.

"Well done, Percy Jackson," she said. "May the gods bless you.”

End ID.

on today's episode of making the grishaverse make sense: trying to come up with somewhat historically plausible title for nikolai

in thinking about the ways that people write meta and analysis on this website i think a great number of people have a hard time distinguishing between deliberate intentional meaning and naive interpretation / what can be read in a work purely but was unintended by the creator and to conflate the two to support a One True Reading of a work is quite frankly stupid lol

yaz being confirmed lebanese kills me bc she doesn’t give lebanese AT ALLLL. the lebanese stereotype is that they’re soft spoken and dainty and not that assertive. the way they speak arabic is notably way softer spoken and melodic. the culture is very relaxed and outgoing to everyone. she is making it her personal mission to defy every lebanese trope

[butterflysweety]

Wait, we all know that for yasammy, sammy fell first and yaz fell harder and for kenlynn, brooklyn fell first and kenji fell harder (or the opposite idk but still kenji was so head over hells for her)

But i gotta know for benrius

[mainalias]

thinking about compiling screenshots of golden/silver age batman exclusively calling dick his ward to combat the allegations that it was “initially a father-child relationship”

[fistfightinganxietyandlosing]

Imagine if Benrius had actually become canon in the show. How do you think the writers would have tackled it or better yet - how would you have tackled it?
