its not much but yk how on most roadtrips you rotate between drivers so one person isnt driving the whole time? yeah well tgat doesnt happen here, peter drives the whole time. its not just that though; all pf them have their own little spot and theres an unspoken agreement that everyone stays in their spot. so example elias rides shotgun the whole time, simon rides in the back on the drivers side, etc.
oh also simon is that little bitch who annoys everyone (mostly peter though) by going “are we there yet” every five seconds 💀
I finally watched (part of) hairspray and all day this has been stuck in my head:
day 79- Good Morning Baltimore {Nikki Bolonsky • Hairspray}
every night I think “wow this might be the night I go to bed early” and every time without fail I fuck it up
I’m picking him up as taking him as one of my own (this is the 4th or 5th child I will be adopting)
itty bitty baby ezekiel comes up to you and says "DADDY! DADDY!"
what do you do
ok I don’t want to get into any shipping wars but the things I saw while trying to tag a tma fanfic are actually wild 💀
I think my personal favorite wild ships I saw were -Stranger Entity Breekon/Stranger Entity Hope/Reader -Elias Bouchard | Jonah Magnus/Gertrude Robinson -Martin Blackwood/Jonathan “Jon” Sims | The Archivist/Reader -The Beholding/Jonathan “Jon” Sims | The Archivist -Gerard Keay/Gertrude Robinson -Elias Bouchard | Jonah Magnus/Jane Prentiss -Nikola Orsinov/Jonathan “Jon” Sims | The Archivist
and my two personal absolute favorites:
The Beholding/Elias Bouchard | Jonah Magnus The Once-ler (The Lorax)/Gertrude Robinson
today I chose a song that is from one of my personal favorite movies and is a song I love:
day 44- Ghostbusters {Ray Parker Jr.}
(also theres an absolutely amazing animatic on yt by Katherine / Radish with this song and its like my favorite tma animatic ever)
This won’t make your blog look ugly. How could you not reblog this? REBLOGGING THIS COULD SAVE A LIFE!!!
the first time I listened to this my only thought was how elias core it was lmao:
day 67- Kiss Me, Son of God {They Might Be Giants}
(this might be long and trigger warnings I will talk about death and the mafia)
okay so it’s a known fact that Leon is an orphan because his entire family was killed by a rival mafia group but they never so farther than that and I wonder, did Leon have siblings? And if he did could it be possible that he wasn’t the only one who survived? Like i don’t believe ALL of his family was killed because that’s kinda hard to do but also the wiki talks about how a police officer saved Leon which lead him to want to become a police officer so did anyone else get saved? I feel like it would be weird if no one else was saved from this mass murder but that’s just me and there’s another thing, how old was he when this happened? I headcannon he was about 6-7 but the wiki doesn’t specify other than he was in his childhood when it happened, I reckon this was because the creators didn’t want to do too much work for the characters backstory but still I wanna know how old was this man when he had his cannon event? If Capcom doesn’t want to make the backstories then I will and that’s another thing! Characters don’t have very good backstories besides “oh uh yea they have/had a family!” Which I still reckon is because no one would care for the story but I CARE I CARE FOR THE STORY
edit: I do not count the live action movies cannon BUT I DO COUNT THE ANIMATED ONES (and the show!)
today’s song is jon vibes bc it’s been stuck in my head all day lol:
day 13- Unraveling {The Crane Wives}
a quick psa to anyone recently getting into greek mythology and is a victim of tumblr and/or tiktok misconceptions:
-there is no shame in being introduced to mytholgy from something like percy jackson, epic the musical or anything like that, but keep in mind that actual myths are going to be VERY different from modern retellings
-the myth of medusa you probably know (her being a victim of poseidon and being cursed by athena) isn't 100% accurate to GREEK mythology (look up ovid)
-there is no version of persephone's abduction in which persephone willingly stays with hades, that's a tumblr invention (look up homeric hymn to demeter)
-as much as i would like it, no, cerberus' name does not mean "spot" (probably a misunderstanding from this wikipedia article)
-zeus isn't the only god who does terrible things to women, your fav male god probably has done the same
-on that note, your fav greek hero has probably done some heinous shit as well
-gods are more complicated than simply being "god of [insert thing]", many titles overlap between gods and some may even change depending on where they were worshipped
-also, apollo and artemis being the gods of the sun and the moon isn't 100% accurate, their main aspects as deities originally were music and the hunt
-titans and gods aren't two wholly different concepts, titan is just the word used to decribe the generation of gods before the olympians
-hector isn't the villain some people make him out to be
-hephaestus WAS married to aphrodite. they divorced. yes, divorce was a thing in ancient greece. hephaestus' wife is aglaia
-ancient greek society didn't have the same concepts of sexuality that we have now, it's incorrect to describe virgin goddesses like artemis and athena as lesbians, BUT it's also not wholly accurate to describe them as aromantic/asexual, it's more complex than that
-you can never fully understand certain myths if you don't understand the societal context in which they were told
-myths have lots and lots of retellings, there isn't one singular "canon", but we can try to distinguish between older and newer versions and bewteen greek and roman versions
-most of what you know about sparta is probably incorrect
-reading/waching retellings is not a substitute to reading the original myths, read the iliad! read the odyssey! i know they may seem intimidating, but they're much more entertaining than you may think
greek mythology is so complex and interesting, don't go into it with preconcieved notions! try to be open to learn!
