Spooky Mulder? More like Pookie Mulder AMIRIGHT???
— Ursula K. Le Guin
Absolutely hilarious to me that the ton is gonna be speculating on why and how Penelope and Colin ended up engaged and there’s definitely gonna be some entrapment/pity rumours going around but the actual truth of it is that Colin chased a carriage down, fell to his knees and went “please please please please please please please”

Throwback to when I just finished watching the X-Files—for the first time—a few years ago and then immediately started up the first episode again...
can someone rewrite criminal minds but elle’s storyline and trauma is more explored, less of making her seem like a villain!!! and maeve plotline is better and she lives and they have children and also jeid NEVER happens pleek😭😭😭😭💔
ao3 writers GET. TO. IT.
truly the wildest thing about all the Bridgerton discourse about "is Nicola Coughlan too FAT to be a convincing love interest???" is that in many ways she actually looks better in the period costumes than her thinner counterparts because she has the figure to really fill them out. those dresses are incredibly flattering on larger bodies because they emphasise the bust and cleavage whilst creating a very elegant silhouette. there's something unintentionally hilarious about hearing pearl-clutching in the distance over "idk is this FAT WOMAN sexy enough to be believable as an object of lust??" whilst Penelope Featherington's majestic heaving bosoms are almost spilling out of her dress in a category 5 titty event. if anything she's too sexy. they had to spend the first two seasons putting her in ugly dresses in a desperate attempt to conceal the fact that she's serving more cunt than the entire itty bitty titty committee combined
If there's one thing supernatural has taught me, it's that. Gay love can pierce through the veil of death and save the day.
bones is my emotional support copaganda show because never before has a straight couple exhibited such homosexual levels of yearning
i lied, put your clothes back on, we’re actually going to talk about how brennan and hodgins are best friends and how they’re one of the most underrated pairings in the show despite being buried alive together, and hodgins being brennan’s counterpart in every au the show has done and them knowing each other from the main cast the longest and enjoying little pieces of each other that the others think are odd
*puts hands on hollywood exec's shoulders, staring unblinking into their eyes* listen to me. you will never get people who hate musicals to like musicals by making your musical less of a musical. if you hide the fact that your film is a musical in the advertising, you're going to get a lot of low ratings from people who hate musicals and went into your movie not expecting a musical and got one anyway. people who hate musicals will hate them no matter how realistic and diegetic and lowkey you try to make it. they will hate musicals even if you completely excise anything complicated, over the top, silly, or even slightly challenging. they will hate musicals even if you cut half the songs. they will hate musicals even if you cast that a-lister who can't sing worth a damn. stop trying to market to people who hate musicals. they're a lost cause. your audience should be people who love musicals. this half-assed middle ground pisses off both camps. just embrace the fact that your movie is a musical. lean into it. don't try and trick musical haters into coming to your film when you could be marketing to the theater kids. better cringe than a coward.
So I've decided to watch The X-Files for the very first time after doomscrolling on Pinterest and being Intruiged.
I know this much about the show from the Internet:
- Very Important show in the sci-fi genre and cultural zeitgeist
- the MulderxScully ship invented the concept of shipping
- it's about aliens?
- the title sequence music gets used in all the meme videos
- Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny hate each other, except maybe they don't, it's really fucking complicated
Also I've decided to document this journey on Tumblr bc why not?
