Loki surveilling the skyline of New York from the top of Stark Tower and clocking that his favorite paired set of buildings are gone. sad
#everyone wants thor and loki to have visited earth a bunch of times and obviously they wouldn't be too invested in earth politics#but i think the concept of much time passing between visits should be taken advantage of#like what if one of them missed seeing the statue of liberty on their past 3 visits and now that's 'suddenly' a famous historic landmark#Loki like wow I sure hope that restaurant in the Soviet Union is still around!#and Natasha's head whips around so fast like you mean Russia or one of the surrounding countries that used to be part of the USSR#Loki: uhm. well. what's the difference#Natasha: here is a map of the countries does this help#Loki: it does not help but thank you for trying#Thor: what do you mean Rome is gone???? Rome was HUGE?????#Tony: well it's been a few centuries since then Europe is very different now#Thor: (visibly distressed) so the the sweet effeminate men enjoy the streets no more??#Tony: ...I don't keep track of foreign border laws about that#Thor shows up after 3 years and there's a new president and he's very confused through the entire meeting#brodinsons being so detached from the political scene but being so used to realm politics they come to correct conclusions about things#even though the timeline and how long things stay the same on midgard still messes with them#Loki: at least Egypt is still around#Thor: China also#Brodinsons visiting New Zealand(Aotearoa)/Australia/various British mandate islands before the British formally showed up#returning 2 centuries later and 'the gene pool has altered drastically' 'must've been a war'#well it's either that or since Asgard seems spared of colorism they treat all humans as the same and don't notice. which might be worse#on the colonisation and liberation side of things

My gf was listening to "White Blank Page" by Mumford and Sons and I once again told her that song is SO much better if it's gay.
She doesn't listen to the lyrics of songs but she's extremely good at literary analysis and this time she actually looked up the lyrics and has now come to the following conclusion: "It makes no sense if it's not gay."
My (objectively best) reading is this:
The narrator was in love with a guy who strung him along, never willing to be in a committed (or public) relationship with him and maybe insisting that it's extremely heterosexual "helping a bro out" sex, except in more intimate moments. Finally out of nowhere guy is suddenly committed to a woman and when Narrator confronted him, guy spat out homophobic vitriol and claimed he's not gay like the Narrator.
(For extra flavor imagine them as closeted, straight passing Midwestern flannel wearing, love-bonfires-and-camping guys who sat next to each other at church and elbowed and annoyed each other like best friends do and were each other's go-to source of emotional support! And then to suddenly shut Narrator out for the first time ever, by abruptly marrying a woman and insisting that he's always been straight and their relationship meant nothing...)
Here are the lyrics:
Can you lie next to her And give her your heart, your heart As well as your body? And can you lie next to her And confess your love, your love As well as your folly? And can you kneel before the king And say, "I'm clean! I'm clean!" ? But tell me now, where was my fault In loving you with my whole heart? Oh, tell me now, where was my fault In loving you with my whole heart? A white blank page and a swelling rage, rage You did not think When you sent me to the brink, to the brink You desired my attention But denied my affections, my affections So tell me now, where was my fault In loving you with my whole heart? Oh, tell me now, where was my fault In loving you with my whole heart? Lead me to the truth and I Will follow you with my whole life Oh, lead me to the truth and I Will follow you with my whole life
Why call multiple people "you" in a totally unclear way? Why would you claim that your female ex's new man can't love her AT ALL (not just as much as you did, AT ALL)? And invoking the judgment of God is so fucking tedious if you're just shaming your female ex for moving on or even cheating/getting with your friend. Also you look like a creepy asshole if you think a girl broke up with you for "loving her too much".
This song is tepid, badly written, and makes the narrator look like an asshole if it's NOT gay.
The gay reading is the ONLY compelling one.

One could claim many reasons for why Canada is a good place to live. Healthcare, slightly-less-on-fire-politically than the US, etc etc.
For me, it's easy access to Jaffacakes

I just wanna say how happy I am Syabira won Great British Bake Off. I called it from day one. She brought Southeast Asian culture and flavors into British bakes and it rocked the judges minds. She embodies sharing culture through food. She deserves the world and everything in it šŸ’™

one of my Semi-Popular Tumblr Posts (ie one that gets occasional reblog-flurries for a day or two) is the "Do It For Her[/Him/Them]" meme and the photos are Christopher Eccleston/Nine but the thing is I don't actually like Nine very much (Eccles himself is great though, obvs) but also I forgot that things in the tags don't get reblogged and thus are gonna be invisible to future rebloggers and also i deleted the original and so nobody who reblogs it in recent times knows that the original post was encouraging Queen Elizabeth II to hurry up and die, because CE (rightly) hates the monarchy and it seemed like it might cheer him up if she did that.
(further Historical Context: the meme was made/posted around that point where those of us in the UK were looking at the BBC News front page and going "they're all heading to Balmoral now? omg is this THE FINAL COUNTDOWN??")
so anyway she's dead now but Do It For Christopher Eccleston apparently lives on.

My theory for the reason why Americans seem so grossed out at the idea of eating beans on toast is bc they think it's served cold??? Is that why??

so I found your blog pretty recently and can I say how OBSESSED I AM??!?! YOUR ART? ICONIC. All of the designs are just uttterly perfect and 11/10!! (Also for the modern au citation needed piece in particular, I've been trying to focus on writing an essay all day and keep getting MYSTERY LEMBAS~ stuck in my head at random internvals and just losing it)
Tumblr media
Aww, thank you so much!! Itā€™s so fun to find people who share my niche sense of humor. (Also thank you for the reminder that one of these days I need to redraw that comic with the new Modern AU designs X-D)
Iā€™d apologize for getting ā€œMYSTERY LEMBASā€ stuck in your head, but Iā€™m not sorry >:-D Thanks for enjoying the blog, and for leaving such a sweet message! Good luck on your essay!

what i do really like about 13 (i say as if theres only a few things?) is how instead of the casual insults previous doctors would throw at bystanders, she'll throw out casual compliments. it's a great improvement i hope it sticks

my phone isabout to die but i need to complain abt how people draw martin tma RIGH NTOW
#LISTEN LISTEN TO ME. HE IS NOT WHITE & BLOND/GINGER HE DOES NOT HAVE CIRCLE GLASSES OR WEAR WOOL VESTS DO YOUUNDERSTAND.#no one gets me & my polish/filipino martin hc it is so sad#i do love that he is usually drawn tall & fat but he does not look like a BABY AUGH#plesaaase give that man some eyebags and stubble and acne scars esp in s5 i am on my hsnds and knees crying#makes me annoyed how people see a guy who is sweet and a lil clumsy and turn him into the image of british innocence . do u know what imean#he isnā€™t a child he isnā€™t a doormat heā€™s a whole grown man and itā€™s awesome#and jon . it bores me the way ppl give him gaunt or chiseled features n a sharp jawline like . he is the definition of average .#n the fancy clothes ? please he is so painfully uncharismatic at work he wouldnt even have a cool tie. heā€™d have piercings tho that is true#andthe way people make him ambiguously brown .. i wish people took more care to accurately draw ethnic features#or at least figure out what ones theyā€™re trying to represent#face shape variation is really really cool if u pay attention to it !!#also my personal propaganda is jon is hoh in the right ear & wore a (gray) hearing aid and had super generic glasses pre-coma BTW#i should draw season lineups for them i love them so much#i just have to figure out how long jonā€™s hair isšŸ˜¢thatā€™s something i have 0 thoughts onšŸ˜­#WAIT ALSO. u know how people draw martinā€™s hair turning white during the Lonely segment. i donā€™t get why they donā€™t just give him vitiligo#it makes perfect sense to me and it would be so swag awesome but iā€™ve never seen anyone draw it but me .. falls over#talking tag
