Lee Pace and Tracie Thoms in WONDERFALLS // 1.11 “Cocktail Bunny”

I think the funniest dynamic for arranged-marriage royalty would be a queen who came here 100% prepared to murder her future husband and rule as a widow queen in her own right, only to discover that the king is autistic as hell and responds to her wish to rule with "oh thank god please do, I don't want to be bothered by these people. I can just tell them to go bother you instead, if you really want that. I've got beetles I wanted to study."

"I'm really not good at it," the king admits with horrible, aching grief. The country is in disarray. Peasants go hungry. Nobles trade power amongst themselves with impunity.

So the queen takes over and ruthlessly sets things to rights. Fires several generals, hangs nobles, redirects wealth to the peasantry. It isn't long before the first assassination attempt, which she expected.

She did not expect her docile, beetle-obsessed husband to go absolutely feral and fling himself at the assassins wielding a pair of sharp knives.

Also, the beetles are intended to attack and kill a certain type of invasive worm that has been killing off the gourd and potato crops for decades. He’s been trying since he was a child to crossbreed several native species to be hardier and better diggers. When he finally gets it right it’s all over for you bitches (“you bitches” being mass starvation of subsistence farmers).

Mad Scientist and the Head of HR ass dynamic

there's an episode of malcolm in the middle where he just shuts up and stops complaining for awhile and it immediately starts to significantly improve his life but also it causes him an ulcer and by the end of the episode he is literally spitting up blood and i have always deeply and unshakably believed that is exactly how the situation would play out for me too

sid… you know what to do

No song nor poetry can convey tragedy like a cat who wants through a door

i need all the weird neo-puritans of tumblr and toktok and twitter to realize that people have been having fun casual sex for literally all of human existence and that’s a good thing

you think our ancestors weren’t making sexy eyes at each other over a mug of mead and fucking nasty behind the tavern??? you think cavepeople weren’t having fun animalistic sex??? pull your head out of your ass

the people of pompeii: *openly have brothels and dicks on the floors and picture sex menus*

2023 twitter user: people are only having casual sex because their brains are rotted by porn and capitali- what’s that? yes i was raised catholic why do you ask?

drai answering in german and hyman is impressed 😂

@irrelevanttous THANK YOU!!!

some interesting things to note about draisaitl’s german, for non-german speakers: he has some very characteristic markers of canadian assimilation. it’s incredibly subtle, but his accent has touches of someone who’s lived in north america for years who speaks more american(/canadian) english than german in their everyday life, it’s not a regular “hochdeutsch” accent any more. his sentence structure is also very anglicised, to me it sounds like he’s so primed to giving these interviews in english he seems to almost have to translate himself from english back to german (and he leans on english words anyway; “momentum” exists in german, but it’s not commonly used, and not in this way either, and the way he borrows it from hyman speaks to the sudden switch giving him “Wortfindungsstörung” (sensation when you can’t remember the specific word you’re looking for)). my guess is since his flavour of bilinguality has phases of exclusively speaking english or exclusively speaking german throughout the year and he doesn’t switch off a lot in everyday life, that when you catch him when he’s still sweating from the playoff game he just played he’s just a little more stuck in english that he’d usually be.

oh yeah, he also instinctively calls hyman “hymo” which is hilarious because that’s like. german way to make a hockey nickname (equivalent to the type of nickname where players add -er after first syllable of someone’s last name, e.g. nealer, pronger, etc.)
