i've been having smoothies for breakfast lately and today's combo of cherry + raspberry + cucumber is one of my favorites so far.

He's so happy to see you! You've been gone for a looOOOoong while, friend, but he's so glad you're back! You two can play games, tell stories about your adventures outside the daycare, and have an extra long snack time! Won't you stay a while?

I bet none of those GOP are man enough to cry in public lol drop a pair and even have some hot sauce but nah that would literally end their egolives haha

but seriously have you ever considered the might of a stoically weeping ripped jacked dude talking about something he's passionate about and shedding a tear? This is of course my vibe on da blog here...

I mean when Reagan shed a tear the GOP ate it up and it cemented his leadership, and I don't hate him or fault him for that though I know many on the left thought it was just an acting job. Maybe his whole life was an acting job. I'm just also a former method actor and I know the best acting is method acting where you really do feel the emotions of the character and even become the character, and live and die as the character, and may, with lacking caution, accidentally revert to the character in real life during times of crisis, it gets weird, this is why as a method actor you don't take roles you don't relate to; I have actor friends that this happens to. This is partly why existentialism is my happy place. Anyway. So...

When Walz Jr here sheds a tear in public the GOP sic on him like dogs? and he's still just a young adult? ffs there's no dignity on the far right

Anytime characters swap bodies I always think about which of our silly little guys gets a break from their usual trash bod/brain.

Can I just say how much I appreciate that Arcane isn’t afraid to make their female characters “unattractive”

Often times in television, directors will tell their female actors to make emotional scenes seem less painful, or that they should try to look “prettier” on screen.

For an animated show that quite literally designs every frame through a long and detailed process, the show never tries to sell their female characters’ anguish short, even though they easily could

This entire scene hurts every time I watch it, and not just because of the phenomenal voice acting, but because these expressions carry so much weight

Or even in the show’s final scene, Caitlyn’s silent look of realization as the rocket is fired is gut wrenching

These animators did not pull any punches for their expressions goddamn

I have personally always disliked Amanda on account of first appearance involving slapping Spock for having medical autonomy, but the fandom has always loved her and talked about what a great mom she is. So it is on some level gratifying to have Discovery confirm that she does indeed suck as a mom, but oh, it's so awful to watch Michael go through all of this

hiiii lily what is this ‘orv’ i have been seeing…..

HIIII MIKE. SMILES. orv is Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint! it's a webnovel with an ongoing webtoon adaption and it is making me Fucking Crazy. basically the premise there's this really unpopular really long webnovel called Three Ways to Survive an Apocalypse, and for years, Kim Dokja has been the only reader. when the novel finally ends, the author sends him an email with the txt file of the whole novel, and then suddenly the novel is wiped from the internet and in that instant, the events of the novel begin taking place in Kim Dokja's world. the apocalypse begins and humanity is subjected to cruel scenarios and challenges livestreamed for the entertainment of these powerful entities called constellations, and as the only one who read the story to its end, Kim Dokja is the only one fully equipped with knowledge of how this story goes (or at least, how it originally went)

it is SO good. it lures you in like "ooh this is a normal reverse isekai" and then ends up being CRAZY. it deals with questions about the boundary between characters and Real People and whether that distinction really matters, and it's one of those stories that looks the audience dead in the eye and dares you to look away first. literary devices are made Real (oh fourth wall we're really in it now...) and it plays with narrative voice and pov and unreliable narration in such fun ways. it is ultimately about the value of stories and the value of being a reader and the choice to wrestle with the story that's been written for you in favor of the story you really want to tell. it's also about Kim Dokja having something Deeply Wrong With Him skdlfjlksdjf the journey i went on with him was "okay he's a reader insert who reads novels as escapism, i get it" -> "oh actually he has something wrong with him" -> "oh he has something Wrong With Him" -> "WHAT. WHAT THE FUCK. HELLO. WHAT WAS THAT." I'm obsessed with him.

I read the webtoon first which I think is a pretty effective onboarding point! some of the art had my jaw on the FLOOR it's so cool. the webtoon has adapted roughly the first third of the whole novel so far, and if you want to read the novel just dm me and I'll hit you up with the epub file lol (not just mike but anyone who is interested!)

i just had a dream where The Incredibles came out with a metal popcorn bucket, but it was just Mrs. Incredible's butt cheeks, and there were tweets online desperately asking, "how am i supposed to buy one of these things??" and one tweet showing off a bunch of official sales listing for the thing, and one of them was listed (emphasis on official) as: "The Incredibles Mrs. Incredible Big Ass Popcorn Tin"
