#the body language is SO uncomfortable

Please please please tell me that you’re as obsessed with the little sound he makes at 10:29 as I am :’) - just the little ‘mhmm’ and the way he sucks his bottom lip I CAN’T.

just seconds before the poor man got called a tart 💔

no for real though i am obsessed with it the way i am obsessed with all his little non verbal encouragers, and the way he kind of savours the sound of them as he utters them?? (he does the same with certain words too and i am if possible even more obsessed with that 😭) but yeah, i feel like there’s definitely an undertone of irritation or impatience here that gives this little 'mhmm' a slight edge - which, jesus christ. is NOT surprising given the literal everything about this interview. but yeah, i love how much expressiveness he injects into that one little sound. i love HIM 😭😭

not to ramble about iwtv but i think a lot of people who balk at the unsavory parts of gothic fiction are people who have either 1) never truly had to face an onslaught of the macabre in their own life 2) have not actually sat with the discomfort of the darker parts of existence or simply not learned or had to learn how to process truly twisted emotions within themselves. and i bring this up in relation to iwtv because i see a lot of people pointing out 'problematic' parts of the book or bemoaning which ships are more or less toxic. and it's like it's a cow farm there's gonna be cows on the cow farm.

yeah anne rice wrote some weird shit and some of it is definitely unnecessary, most of those elements were corrected in the show. but a lot of it is just gothic fiction. you don't get to have sexy vampires, romanticism and tortured yearning without the inappropriate attachments, the true face of grief and the blurred lines between violence and eroticism which has evoked great interest in humans for centuries.

"There were a couple of scenes we tweaked quite a bit, particularly one where Lindsay, her boss, takes her home. And it's one of my favourite scenes in the show, actually.

And I think because it is so ambiguous, because it is never commented on after, you couldn't put a scene like that into a modern day show without having some repercussion for it, or having her have a conversation about the specifics of that. But we very, very specifically did not want to do that, we wanted to simply present it. And then the audience has to live with it. And that's the uncomfortable part that they're living with."

"Alicent seduced Viserys because she was an ambitious bitch!!!!" Okay then why does she look like she wants to die everytime she's near him????

watching the twilight zone and seeing a character that is so autistic it’s hardly coded and the narrative treats him with such compassion in his introduction I can only hope his story ends as gently

yes yes tik tok hate and all that but i need it to not be banned because i’m on there to study the call of duty cosplay community. they’re SO fascinating to me. bc previously a lot of tik tok cosplaying was very much centred on the face and often included very overly-expressive facial expressions and movements, but almost all of these guys cover their faces, so communication ends up being done through eye movements and body language and it’s so interesting

palm has to listen to Ben's shit, deal with Mackie's persistent character and then, when throwing a "save. me." look at nueng, see him take ben's hand

Not much can beat the feeling of arriving at a brewery and walking up to the bar as my girlfriend is getting the two beers for us right as some corny old white man says “Is one of those for me har har” and putting my arms around her right as he finishes his abysmal pickup line. He gave me death stares periodically the whole time we were there 😂😂🤷🏾‍♂️🏳️‍🌈

It's so frustrating that (yt) ppl only just now seem to be realizing Pedro is uncomfortable being so highly sexualized.

The amount of times my gut has been twisted up watching him try to politely sidestep those questions is unbearable and the fact that it took this long for people to realize rlly makes me sad for him.
