Wait, you know what I just thought of that I HADN'T thought of before??? If this is indeed the intended light of the sculpture, for how long have we been drawing love-hearts like that???????????

cemetery of laeken, brussels.

the story of a marble worker evrard flignot who devastated by the death of his wife built a mausoleum for her. at first look inside, there is a mourner reaching out to an empty wall. but, once a year, on the day of the summer solstice, the sun draws a light that recalls this love for almost a century.

Metal head musician Eddie Munson’s black cat Strider who loves pop music and screams at Eddie every time he picks up his electric guitar.

Strider’s favorite is pop princess Steve Harrington’s newest album. Eddie knows each song word for word (he’ll never admit it)

When I was 25, my mother and sister both responded laughingly when I said "You're old. I'm old. We're old. We're all old."

But I went on to explain: making it into adulthood is a privilege that a lot of animals don't experience. The fact that any of us made it this far is incredible. We survive things today we could never have survived before. It's a feat to reach 20. It's a miracle to go beyond that. It is beautiful to age. Even when it's horrific.

The capitalism issue of access and cost aside, 5 people are now cured of AIDS.

Remember, history was awful. Never trust the romantics.

Jason looking his actual age.

Random panels from RHATO N52 that vibe with my mental image of Jason’s appearance. RHATO sucks but I do love how Jason looks in a lot of it. I just need him to look like actual fucking teenager and not a middle aged man and I am so desperate for it that I will take it wherever I can find it.

Saved these because I kept thinking about it after @ghost-bxrd’s ask post with crack about Red Hood being adoptable. (Tagging you 'cause it seemed like you may like having these.)

Got turned around on the road to York. Made the most of it by picking apples.

My Pompep Secret Santa 2024 gift for @psi-onic. Happy Holidays and a Pompeppy New Year! 😄

Prompt: College Danny refuses to go home for Christmas due to his parents' nonsense. Vlad shows him that some Christmas traditions can be nice when they're not tainted by constant fighting.

POV your favorite Ninja fanblog stopped posting like five years ago and you assumed it was because of Ninja stuff and then you see that he just posted this:

i need ghoap frantically making out against a door finally taking the leap on their feelings. need ghost grinding against soap, expecting to find him just as hard as him, only to feel nothing

and in all his wisdom and experience, he concludes soap was tortured and never told him

he’s trying to think of a delicate way to say he understands, that he’s been through it and it doesn’t change anything about how he feels (and who the fuck touched him so he can hunt them down and rend them limb from limb)

meanwhile trans!soap’s just trying to find the best angle to grind his cunt on ghost’s thigh

just it never even entering ghost’s head bc he’s never known a trans person but he has met plenty of people who’ve been tortured - himself included - so of course that’s his logical leap

soap takes off his shirt and he sees his top surgery scars and ghost asks if he wants him to kill the one who did it and soap just hums like, “actually, man did pretty good, they healed real well,” and ghost’s just teary-eyes with awe at how well he’s coping, “looking on the bright side, that’s my johnny.”

imagine he thinks johnny was fully castrated but sees he’s determined to still have a sex life with him so he buys packers and straps to help him bc hell yeah healing and soap’s just like, “holy shit i’ve never had such a thoughtful partner before, such a sweet man, lt.”
