i love you guillermo del totoro

[ID: Four gifs of Guillermo del Toro in an interview. He says, “I think the sublime confusion is from 19 to 29. You think you are late for everything, you’re a has-been, nothing is happening, there’s no opportunity for you, the world is closed, everything is a disaster, you wanna die. And then you’re 30.” /end ID]

He once gave a class in Guadalajara and said “Ustedes los jóvenes están en la edad exacta de la desesperación. Yo nunca me sentí más acabado y viejo que a los veintitantos. Decía ‘ya me pasó la vida y no hice nada’. Pero estoy aquí para decirles que no: tienen un chingo de tiempo

Which translates to “You young people are in the exact age of desperation. I never felt more done and old than in my twenties. I’d say ‘life has passed me by and i did nothing’. But i’m here to tell you that’s not true: you have a lot of fucking time

A lot of the substances we think of as protection against the supernatural (e.g. salt, silver, garlic) are actually antibacterial, and would have helped stave off infections and illnesses that people once attributed to supernatural influence.

Based on this, I want to see a story where vampires are repelled by hand sanitizer.

mormonism is sooo funny to me because its straight up one of the few Religion Religions that isn’t regarded as a kooky cult despite the fact that it’s like 100% based on a weird racist scam but we all have to play nice and pretend that its real because there’s like a couple million of them living in utah who are very invested in the whole thing 

Like it really goes to show that the only difference between a cult and a religion is having a membership number high enough to get some senate seats and an Entire State

everyone mostly just jokes about it if utah comes up in conversation, even in utah when you’re part of the 20% that isn’t mormon

my mom says she’s not a hugger. but when i put my arms around her on a gloomy day or after bad news she’s the last to let go. my dad says he doesn’t want gifts on his birthday, but i see the way his face light up when i get him a card with a nice message and a box full of chocolate anyway. he’s just a kid inside, still. it makes him giddy. my brother never says i love you. but when i tell him “i just need to finish the dishes before i vacuum!” he wordlessly goes to vacuum the entire house before i can, and if he sees me struggle with a wrapper or a jar or a bottle he mutters ‘c’mere’ and opens it for me without even sparing me a glance. the thing is, people love you quietly, and you love them quietly, and the air is buzzing with tiny but grand gestures & once you look for them, you find them everywhere. i think that’s really beautiful.

i know we're all ecstatic that england as a nation lost, but that the three english players who missed their penalty kicks were Black means that racist english fans are about to get a million times more violent. and that is not worth celebrating

sure, it's nice that the royal family and all of the it's coming home nonsense got kicked in the teeth (i myself am giddy with schadenfreude), but rashford, sancho, and saka are going to scapegoated for england's loss in the absolute pressure cooker of anti-Black racism that is england right now. please be mindful of this

The abuse is already rampant, not to mention domestic abuse incidents increase by close to 40% when England lose. I am thrilled that football fever is over but the aftermath isn't pretty
