but genuinely I will never stop thinking about the museum scene. like it's upsetting in all the obvious setup-to-the-plot-twist ways, but more than that: the quietness of Steve’s presence vs. the booming grandiosity of the exhibit itself. The question of whether he had been previously (my guess would be yes) and if so, what a morbid, ghost-like ritual to perform just in order to cling to your memory, to remind yourself that it was real. What a blunt, reductive manifestation of not only everything you’ve lost, but the fact that your life and memory have become so entrenched a part of the public domain to the point that you’re viewed as about as much of a person as any one dusty item in that exhibit; the fact that you can’t access any of your world outside of yourself unless it’s through about a dozen second-hand, funhouse mirror narratives not only entirely co-opted by war but also tailored to fit a certain purpose. This one very public fucking horrific way to keep torturing yourself is one of your only remaining tethers to what you remember of your life. I mean. jesus christ steve

Not So Faded Memories 👻✨

~

My friends and I were talking about Mario being afraid of anything with portraits or (maybe mirrors?) considering he's been trapped not once, twice, but THREE times now. I think he'd have major PTSD moments and a little paranoia haha.

Also sorry for my piss poor handwriting it was late and I should've done the text thingy but wasn't up for it rip 💀

sometime in the past few decades movies stopped being movies

whatever happened to throwing a dart at a board and coming up with the most random plots that no one else could ever think of? what happened to weird kids and disgraced scientists needing to come up with 1.21 jig-o-wots (not how it's pronounced btw) to power their time machines? what happened to saving a town by dancing? what happened to stealing the declaration of independence? what happened to dinosaur fossils and wax mannequins coming to life? what happened to towns of anthropomorphic chickens being attacked by aliens in want of acorns? what happened to mean girls getting hit by a bus while storming out of a school left in shambles by teen drama?

what happened to cinema?

Snapped this by mistake last week whilst at the museum and thought to myself "that reflection is probably something Ahab hallucinated seeing outside his window, lol". A few days later, I came down with tonsillitis and during a fever dream I had this image of him standing in his kitchen in the middle of the night, dressed in a night shirt, holding a half-eaten sandwich in his hand and staring out at a Moby Dick apparition. Maybe I'll doodle it some day.

peglar papers facsimile...... THE SEQUEL !! 🫶 I only have this one page for now because the high res versions of the pages are very expensive so I fear it'll be a bit slow-going to get the other pages for right now..... but yeah........ (gesturing) here's how my insane person project to make this dead dude's handwriting legible is going

Haunted by the Past

Upon the conclusion of episode five of Peaceful Property, I just want the record to state that in regards to Home x Peach being a couple,

I now ship it HARDER.

I know what Home did to Peach was messed up pero like . . .

I'm into it.

I like GMMTV's non-BL BLs with Tay in them where one of the leads directly causes the other's death.

Something about these men's recklessness causing unintentional harm, yet somehow they get a second chance when the ghosts of the past make them confront the secret they tried to bury just really pleases me.

It brings a nice little "restorative rather than punitive justice" vibe to the narrative that sits well in stories about ghosts.

Because these men can't change the past.

But the ghosts are there to make sure they don't repeat it.

And the beauty of it all this is the ghost story doesn't actually begin until the one they 'killed' reappears and fate forces them to work together to rid themselves of all the other ghosts.

Because these men aren't really being haunted by the ghosts. The ghosts are there to help them along their journey to redemption. What they are being haunted by is their pasts and now they are tied to the one person who constantly reminds them of it. And the best part of all this is they are haunted by a living and breathing human who has no idea just how badly these men hurt them.

Unlike the ghosts who just need one final deed done to give them justice so they can move on, it's not that simple to atone for the wrongs done to these living and breathing humans. They already died once.

And then they came back.

But not for revenge or even for justice.

So maybe that's why I'm willing to mess with los espookys in these stories because it all seems so romantic that even though one was killed by the other, not even death could keep them apart and that the reason they came back from the dead was to keep the other from continuing down a horrible path. It's a story of healing, it's a story of forgiveness, and most importantly, it's a story of liberation.

And it's all because Death decided both of them were worth saving.

Think you know every reference out there in other media to Gravity Falls? Well, in this video, I go over some lesser-known examples of references to Gravity Falls in TV shows, books, YouTubers and more. Some you may recognize and others you may not…unless you really know your references I guess, lol.

A huge thank you to the Gravity Falls wiki for their hard work in sourcing many of the references you’ll see on here. This video would not be possible without them and the many fans who take the time to catalogue all of these.

Giacomo Balla (Italian, 1871-1958)

Dinamismo di un cane al guinzaglio (Dynamism of a #Dog on a Leash), 1912

oil on canvas, framed: 45 1/2 x 53 1/8 x 3 3/4 in. (115.57 x 134.94 x 9.53 cm)

Buffalo AKG Art Museum 1964:16

“Balla painted this amusing study of a skittering dachshund and the staccato steps of his or her owner in May 1912 while visiting one of his students, the Contessa Nerazzini, at Montepulciano, near Siena. The lively background, with its vibrating and contrasting streaks of pink and green, is said to represent the white dust of the Tuscan countryside shimmering under the bright summer sun. The feet of the woman, the leash, and the dog’s body from nose to tail are all blurred and repeated. To enhance the impression of speed, Balla painted the ground using diagonal lines and placed his signature and the date at a dynamic angle. This rhythmic gesture also extends to the frame, which both contains and continues the composition.”

Listen listen L I S T E N

Idk if it's your jam but I've never seen this AU and I think you'd like it. It's not a request, but maybe it could be an inspiration for something? Or just a thought I want to share because I need to get it out of me!!! 😂 Now hear me out...

MuseumGuide!Bucky !!! I went to this interactive art deco museum which is like an apartment that is decorated in 30s furniture exactly how it would've looked like back then and all kinds of gadgets from those times. And the guide was such a hottie, all covered in tattoos and talked with such a passion i couldn't get my eyes off him. 😩🥵😍 And he showed us all the gadgets and even gave a glass of champagne.

Now imagine museum guide bucky and him not being able to take his eyes off you from the very start. Maybe showing you all the gadgets first, 'accidentally' brushing his hand against yours... 🫣

Okay, lovely. First, that guide sounds HOT and I love that for you.

Second, I read this earlier. Twice. And then I had to scream at @tavners because of how much I LOVE THIS! She had the BEST idea that he dresses in 40s garb at a WW2 exhibit.

She also has AN AMAZING idea for a date between our reader and museum guide and my muse is tempted to go crazy with it.

What do we think, lovelies? Do we want this man?

Love and thanks! ❤️

Some more museum goodies, old cockpits are a dream of heavy duty clicky clunky buttons and knobs and switches from the 1940s-60s. <3<3<3
