When God closes a door I reach my little paws under it and meow until He opens it again.
Orphan Black, Season 5
that some people respond to any well-foreshadowed reveal with “ugh that plot twist was so predictable” proves bad faith criticism has rotted their brains to the point they think it’s bad writing if they can correctly identify information the writers were intentionally giving them
started watching merlin recently, some rough studies
[image description: an excerpt of text that says:
“It’s funny,” I told Flewin. “We have an old Nintendo Game Boy floating around the house, and Tetris is the only game we own. My wife will sometimes dig it out to play on airplanes and long car rides. She’s weirdly good at it. She can get 500 or 600 lines, no problem.”
What Flewin said next I will never forget.
“Oh, my!”

TL;DR on the article
The husband was writing an article on classic video game records, was surprised to find out that holding the Tetris record is a bit of a big deal, and mentions how good his wife is at it.
The guy he’s talking to mentions that the record is 327, way lower than his wifes usual scores of 500-600.
They travel to a tournament, and she goes to do her attempt. Just after she beats 327, and is climbing higher, a judge brings up to the husband that the specific version she’s playing actually has a different record of 545.
She overhears that she needs to beat 500-something, and keeps going, setting the record at 841.
Obsessed with this

Please please please refrain from paywalling any sort of fanfic. The lack of monetary gain from fanfiction is one of the core reasons we are legally allowed to create/share/read it.
Fair Use doesn't entirely hinge on whether or not we are earning money, but it is one of the biggest factors a court will consider.
The OTW (company responsible for our ability to legally create fanfic; also owns Ao3) already does so much for us legally, and we absolutely do not need to make their job any harder.
me in two weeks after Big Mouse shuts this place down for allowing someone to make money out of fanart of loki getting railed by owen wilson's character:
Whenever I see an Ivan Aivazovski painting the sea monster in me goes absolutely feral
I see this and I've never wanted to sink a ship so much in my life I'm biting through wood as we speak
God if I saw this in person I'd straight up start slithering. Start writhing
Bold talk for someone in cannon range
bella was lucky she didn’t have a cell phone of any kind because you know ya boi edward would be blowing up that phone 24-7 going “saw a snail today…. effervescent” or some shit equivalent
happy 3 yr anniversary to the post that singlehandedly launched the twilight renaissance
in all seriousness. if u are a content creator and u want to make money. do not put your money in the hands of tumblr. like not just bc it will ruin the site but because i genuinely do not trust them to handle ur money. literally just open commissions or use patreon/ko-fi
this is a website that lets you click a tag you see on your dash all the time and takes you to a “there’s nothing here” error page
