me too!
Ruby Rhod is one of my favorite characters in sci-fi ever because he is Luc Besson’s vision of the hetero sex symbol of the future: a flamboyant, emotionally labile man who wears skin-tight leopard print or decks himself in roses, a man who accessorizes with big jewelry and dabbles in cosmetics. And the ladies love him. Everything about him screams “gay” according to our stereotypes, but he’s portrayed as a 100% straight sexual dynamo.
Besson is one of the few directors I’ve seen who actually recognizes that our ideas of sexuality and gender performance might have changed drastically in the future.
He also has one of the most jarring entrances in a movie. Like the entire movie screeches to a halt because he bursts onto the scene well into the second act and it’s so strange and arresting and Bruce Willis is just like “what the fuck is even going on anymore?”
It’s p. great.
also? hot. :D
What struck me about the character was that essentially, he was in the adventure movie “flighty dame who is mostly there to shriek and occasionally hit a bad guy with a lamp or something,” position.
You know, the one that gives housewives/full-time mothers a pension— wages for housework?
It’s ONLY A HUGE VICTORY FOR FEMINISM, SOCIALISM, AND WOMEN OF COLOR. Not a big deal or anything. Tumblr is mysteriously silent about this.

its entertaining for a bit then boring because she has no creativity in her insults
and by most she just acts like a 15 year old girl with stability issues except she’s like 100
“LOL” YOUR LIFE IS NOT EVEN ENTERTAINING FOR A BIT. JUST FUCKING GOD AWFUL. I BET YOU LIVE ON FOODSTAMPS. OH MAN YOU HAVE 10 DOLLARS LEFT ON IT? BETTER STEAL SOME CORN FROM THAT FARM ACROSS THE STREET.
At least they didnt buy frozen corn and say that they made it…
Amy has no idea where food comes from. It’s no wonder she thinks frozen = homemade. She thinks corn farms are things across the street from people and accessible to the public, and not gigantic industrial compounds located in the middle of nowhere and kept under tight security. Most people get food from grocery stores, Amy. Even when they don’t pay for it.
Complete divorce from reality right there.
And I’m still sort of marveling that there are people who think “you’re on food stamps” is some kind of sick burn.
HAHAHA YOU ARE IN POVERTY, SO THERE! *goes to church, gives when the collection plate is passed*
Is it actually her though? I’d assumed it was a troll/joke blog.

This is an adorkable story.
When I was going over my photos from the Acen Hemostuck shoot, someone laughed and pointed out that some of our cuddle pile shots looked like overly dramatic 90’s TV promo posters.
I’m not sorry.
This is perfect and wonderful.

I want to do this too, though I am not currently RPing, so characters/fic questions might be a thing?
…really? We’re really gonna play that game?
Because if so, I can tell you right now:
Oh wow. That is a deeply shitty thing to say anon, seriously. (Also strangely funny considering the number of smut writers I know who have kids.)
Terracotta Vase in the Form of a Lobster Claw
ca. 460 BC
Greek, Classical
Because so many aspects of Greek life depended on the sea, a vase in the shape of a lobster claw is not surprising. It is, however, exceptional and may be a variant of the askos—a bag-shaped oil container provided with a vertical mouth and strap handle. The Dionysiac iconography of the lobster claw suggests that it was a novelty item used at symposia (drinking parties).

This is cool as hell.
So is the nugget of information that “symposium” meant “booze-up.” I feel this definition should be reinstated posthaste. Academia would be a hell of a lot more fun.

Karkat has the power of adorbs.
The last episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer aired ten years ago today on May 20th, 2003
I didn’t get into Buffy until it was on the air, which is a real shame. It was smart, clever, and did a wonderful job of getting “real” points across.
I didn’t start watching till the Angelus arc. It was one of the odd fandoms where I started reading the fanfic, before I started watching the show.

This is how I feel about most of the movies/tv shows/comics I love.
