Actually no one should be having sex. All of us are aged-up minors and the passage of time is inherently problematic
because time is made up we are all still minors so. cancelled :/

This is how I expected the world to work.
it’s a shame that VTMB isn’t as popular on here as it should be cause y’all would eat so many of those characters up. I think the Lestat girlies would appreciate LaCroix, but more importantly, all sapphic vampire appreciators would lose their shit over Pisha
Pisha lived rent free in my head for years, her voice was everything
Gav’s Tavern Hi, I hope you like this. It is different from what I usually do. Also it was a lot of work.
as far as i'm concerned all "yuri" is "toxic yuri" because women are ontologically evil thanks to eve's original sin
If you see ‘analyses’ that mention that the Emperor is an AbUsEr, then block the authors of those ‘analyses’ because there is no point in reading such ‘analyses’.
But even more, I love the 'analyses' that make the holy assur-cringe-of-the-gate look like a ViCtIm and the evilllll Emp look like an AbUsEr.

“we live in an uncaring universe” yeah dude and I live in an uncaring house. and I shit in an uncaring toilet. but do you touch an uncaring lover? do you comfort an uncaring child? do you guide to sleep each night a cold and uncaring self?
please hurry up in reblogging this I wanna jorts it before someone puts it in one of those heartwarming tiktok slideshows
you know how you can go and watch a movie you watched a bunch as a kid and the version of a song in it is different? like they actually changed it since you were a kid? that isn't normal. we didn't do that until like, the last ten years. it's fucked up.
This is a post about how the Extra-Special-Super-Limited-Collector's-Wet-Dream versions of Neon Genesis Evangelion that cost $250 on ebay don't have "Fly Me to the Moon" in the credits even on the ADV dub.
i know I'm playing this off as me being pedantic but i really shouldn't.
Up til about the last 10 years it was widely understood that if you licensed a song to be used in a film or a video game or a television show that that song would be in that film or video game or television show in perpetuity.
Then, about a decade ago, things started changing. I don't know the exact point in time it changed, but the first time i became aware of it was around 2017 or '18 when some video game, i think it was Grand Theft Auto IV, got a big patch that did exactly one thing and that was remove a bunch of songs that had been in the game because the licensing expired.
And I remember being angered by that but going "oh well, that's video games, right?"
But then a couple years later when Netflix got the rights to Neon Genesis Evangelion and not only put out a new dub but took "Fly Me to the Moon" out of the show, even on the above ultra-fancy collector's Blu-ray set, which included the old dub.
And then recently i was watching From the Earth to the Moon, a HBO miniseries about the Apollo program that I've watched many many times in my life. It was one of my favorites as a kid, and i saw that it was on HBO Max. The thing that made me wanna watch was that it was remastered in 4K. Up til a couple years ago the only version available had been on DVD and I was, you know, really excited because I'm a bit of a cinephile (as you all may have gathered from my, uh, everything) and it's something I'm very familiar with.
Now as you might expect from a docudrama about the Apollo program, there's a lot of 50s, 60s, and early 70s music in it. Episode 5, "Spider", opens with a montage of space age art set to the theme song for Fireball XL-5.
So I'm watching this episode, which mind you, is one of my absolute favorites both as a space nerd and a machine fucker. (When you are done reading this post, please take the time to watch this clip that was formative to me as a robot girl.) So I'm on my nostalgia trip and i get yanked the fuck out because the song playing is not the right one.
It's still the theme song to Fireball XL-5, but its a cover, clearly recorded much later than the original, and it's really fucking jarring. Because the original is the exact sort of kitschy, early-60s space-age stuff that is being montaged in this opening scene.
And the really nutso thing is, I can't find anything about this anywhere. It's not that I'm crazy or that it isn't happening, its that it's just...gone. They do that now.
This is not normal.
It is not normal for companies (because this is 100% corporate pissing contests) to be able to retroactively change pieces of art because they don't want to lend their "intellectual property" to it anymore.
You should be angry about this. It's disgusting. And it was not normal until the last decade.
Reading the notes on this it’s apparently an even more prevalent thing than I realized????
reblog if you believe fanfics are as valid as books that were published and sold by authors who write as their main careers. I'm trying to prove a point
Hi! This post is a huge collection of all my writing tips in one place. I will update this list daily and add new posts
I feel like a good shorthand for a lot of economics arguments is "if you want people to work minimum wage jobs in your city, you need to allow minimum wage apartments for them to live in."
"These jobs are just for teenagers on the weekends." Okay, so you'll use minimum wage services only on the weekends and after school. No McDonald's or Starbucks on your lunch break.
"They can get a roommate." For a one bedroom? A roommate for a one bedroom? Or a studio? Do you have a roommate to get a middle-wage apartment for your middle-wage job? No? Why should they?
"They can live farther from city center and just commute." Are there ways for them to commute that don't equate to that rent? Living in an outer borough might work in NYC, where public transport is a flat rate, but a city in Texas requires a car. Does the money saved in rent equal the money spent on the car loan, the insurance, the gas? Remember, if you want people to take the bus or a bike, the bus needs to be reliable and the bike lanes survivable.
If you want minimum wage workers to be around for you to rely on, then those minimum wage workers need a place to stay.
You either raise the minimum wage, or you drop the rent. There's only so long you can keep rents high and wages low before your workforce leaves for cheaper pastures.
"Nobody wants to work anymore" doesn't hold water if the reason nobody applies is because the commute is impossible at the wage you provide.
remembering that octopus brains are donut shaped cause their esophagus goes thru the middle of their head and sometimes they die from brain damage from meal too big, and saying a long prayer before bed every night that if something like that happens to me i will be able to handle it gracefully
now i lay me down to sleep
i pray the lord my soul to keep
and hope my brain does not explode
from lunch or dinner overload
but if i die from eating good
i know the haters wish they could
and every day i thank my god
i was not born a cephalopod
and as we all know most prayer is silent so while there are no further words it continues for twelve minutes or so
oh excellent I needed a warmup exercise, thank you!
Two houses both alike in dignity never establishes the level of dignity they both obtain. This is usually assumed to be high, but could in fact be extremely low. Thus an adaptation of Romeo and Juliet with both houses being rival clown troupes would not be in opposition to the text. In this essay I will
