hahahaha alex and claire painting each other’s nails black, sharing plaid, talking about their fucked up childhood, bonding over rebellious tendencies and loving their badass mom jody mills
I am really interested in these tag posts so here is another
the cry baby love see ha happy perfect
Cas was told he didn’t have the will to win. Dean rushed in to save him and failed. Because Dean can’t save Cas from that. He slid the blade over and Cas made the decision. He made the decision to fight, to live, and wow. I’m so happy right now
against my better judgment i’m really excited to see how Dean and Cas’ relationship developes from here
they were so great in this episode, so raw and genuine and so stubbornly trying to look after each other. Cas trying to assure he’s fine and that he’ll be there in a couple of days and Dean telling Cas for once look after himself because Dean’s knows Cas, he knows how much he always wants to help others, telling Cas to come home because Dean’s willing to work it out

One more day until the start of Season 9.
metatron walks into a random office in heaven and sees a dozen desks situated in a half-circle facing the door. it’s odd, though, because the large leather swivel chairs all have their backs situated to him.
“hello?” he calls out, hesitantly.
as one, the chairs swirl around, and metatron feels himself pinned with the righteous, furious gazes of nine people, all with their fingers steepled before them, all glaring at him.
metatron’s head turns slowly from left to right, taking them all in, feeling his spirits sink as his eyes slide past the cold fury in the faces of ellen harvelle, bobby singer, rufus turner, jo harvelle, linda tran, jimmy novak, mary winchester, jessica moore, and victor hendricksen.
the silence hangs heavy for a moment.
bobby’s gruff voice breaks it.
“heard you were fuckin shit up and messin with my boys.”
Chivalry is dead and feminism killed it.
GOOD.
Chivalry is an outdated, archaic social code built on the infantilization of white women and the dehumanization and erasure of women of color.
Maybe worry less about emulating idealized notions of medieval knighthood ethics, and focus more on just being a polite person, yeah?

TL;DR I’ll always feel empty on the inside cuz America.

And this is why I hold queer relationships in a much higher regard than straight ones(in general, I know you can be queer and in what’s considered a straight relationship, don’t get it twisted)
Just functioning alone on a totally different script is commendable as hell

Critiquing SPN: A handy guide to spotting problems in the writing (also: just because you're feeling betrayed doesn't mean the writing is bad)
One of the things I’m loving about SPN is that the show inspires a lot of critique. Critique isn’t a bad thing (not by a long shot). In fact, if you’re a writer (or any artist, really, but writing is my craft so that’s what we’re focusing on) engaging in critique (both of your work and the work of others) will help make you a better writer. One of the things you have to do before you can improve your craft is to learn how think critically about a piece of writing. Spotting flaws and recognizing weaknesses in others’ writing is an important step in flushing out your own flaws and weaknesses. And while it is also equally important to recognize what a writer does well (and certainly a well-written critique will do both) right now all I really want to do is give you a handy cheat-sheet for things likely to crop up in the writing of a television show.
And while this isn’t necessarily limited to the SPN fandom, I will be using SPN as a point of reference. I also feel it necessary to point out that I’m not a television writer, so take from this what you will, but don’t take it as gospel.
Some people spend their entire lives trying to decode words written in the stars, searching under each grain of sand, and clearing the dust from every surface, but they never find what they’re looking for.
(That’s because it was never there — the answer, that is.) Nothing in the fabric of the universe exists to tell you “why” — the atoms don’t owe you explanations, nor would they have any to give if they so desired.
(The point is, meaning isn’t waiting to be found; it’s waiting to be created.) But maybe one day you’ll look at the stars or the beach or the windowsill, and suddenly you’ll know the meaning you always wanted to bestow upon the universe; and the universe will not thank you, but the stars will take shape and the sands will be softer and the dust will be a canvas for your eyes and feet and hands.
- Eisenberg suggested to Fincher that Mark should be seen eating Tuna fish out of a can and Twizzlers for the film. Fincher was apparently against the idea, but despite his protests, Mark can be seen eating Tuna during the facemash aftermath and Twizzlers when Eduardo shows up in California. (x)
The premise of the film project is simple: a woman is asked to read an excerpt from a personally elected body of literature. (x)
It’s called “Hysterical Literature,” and I have never seen a better example of questioning why it is that educated women (whether self or otherwise) always seem to be showcased as having no interest in sex. They all choose interesting books, and they all get off, and it’s fabulous.
It’s also brought forth a lot of comments (on youtube and otherwise) and WHY WOULD SOMEONE DO THIS. IT’S SO DIRTY, and I feel that’s part of the point: Why is this considered so scandalous? It’s just sex. In fact, we don’t even SEE the sex, so the only thing that could be making people uncomfortable while watching it seems to be watching a woman enjoying getting sexual pleasure.
And maybe some of those people just aren’t into voyeurism and that’s cool. But I’m betting a lot of them just don’t like to consider that maybe they think women having sexual pleasure is weird and that they think that you can’t have sexual pleasure as a woman and also have other facets and appreciation for “finer things.”
What I’m saying is, this whole series gives me a lot of thoughts.
Always reblog because Hysterical Literature is the sexiest thing I’ve seen in a long while.
Pretty sure I’ll wanna watch this later soooo
I think some reasons for why the people who probably do watch porn are made so uncomfortable by Hysterical Literature are a little more involved, since there’s definitely a decent market for porn in which women masturbate solo. It’s not JUST that each woman is experiencing sexual pleasure, it’s the combination of a bunch of aspects that are specific to this series:
- each woman is without a partner, so she’s not servicing anyone;
- she’s without a partner, so her attention is focused inward — this is completely about her enjoyment only;
- she’s without a partner, but she does have a vibrator and her own body, so she isn’t dependent on any other human for her orgasm;
- she’s reading a selection of her own aloud with some serious dedication, demonstrating that there are things she finds just as interesting as sex;
- we don’t get any of the visuals or the melodrama or the POV that are usually considered to be the point of porn, so we can’t be titillated by her body (or her partner’s body/actions, or her reactions to her partner’s body/actions) — we don’t get to see what’s causing her pleasure, we only see how it makes her feel.
The whole production is actually super-dismissive of mainstream (straight) porn and its primary audience (dudes), in that it’s not particularly staged for the viewer’s pleasure (there’s no pretense that there isn’t a viewer — it’s just not about them) unless the viewer happens to be a person who gets off on the idea of women having some fantastic selfish orgasms, even when the viewer is in no way invited to imagine themselves participating. :D
FANTASTIC.
