Trying To Be a Writer

Wait, a character can become canonically queer and not immediately be sent to super mega turbo hell by the writers???

if tumblr explodes you can address a letter to my url and place it in any hollow log. to be clear i will not receive it. but it is an action you can take

we all know about "yes and" and "no but" in improv and ttrpgs, but I feel like Brennan has added a third option called "sorry what" just for playing with Emily (saying her words back to her when she tells him that a caterpillar was chasing a butterfly or that this note was left on the steps of the police house)

@jadeandquartzes peer reviewing: #it's the inverse of gift of gab. rewind the last five seconds not to erase them but to REALLY let them sink in.

“I loved her to the point of invention” but it’s Brian Murphy creating entire worlds and universes and writing complex elaborate beautiful stories for his wife to play around in and also giving her cute girlfriends on top of that

Dropout HANDS DOWN has the best captions team of anything, anywhere, ever.

i’m in love with whoever captions on dropout bc in todays episode there was a moment where the captions just said “the cast trying not to laugh and keep the moment tense”

“and failing”

fanfic where they both turn into coniferous trees. mutual pining

When I tell you my friend screamed when Luke was found to be the lightning thief. I literally just stood there crackling. I'm the victim of a siren, watching you make the same mistake as me from the underworld. Laughing at our blindness to something seemingly beautiful. I watch as you die, remembering my last moments and laugh.

genuinely one of the worst things that’s happened to television in the last few years (exacerbated by streaming services) is death of Filler. going from 20 episodes to 8 because “we didn’t really need that episode where the main characters went to the beach right? it had no long lasting effect” but we DID!!! we needed to see how they act without the Big Bad Plot and to establish the dynamics between the characters and lay in the sun (do they forget sunscreen? how do they react to a thieving seagull? do they get buried in the sand or do they do the burying?). the plot isn’t everything. the action doesn’t hit as hard without the quiet moments. give us character development and our little scenes back

Today I introduced my sister to “the problem of Susan” and I had to explain to her that Susan was left out of Narnia cuz she liked boys and lipstick now and without missing a beat she said but what about Peter? Does Peter not like girls? And I knew she was pointing out the inherent misogyny at the center of the “the problem of Susan” but the implications of that question are a source of much hilarity to meeee LMFAO like Does Peter not like girls? Does he like boys? Is he Gay? Is Narnia really just a homo-utopia where Lucy is also a lesbian and Edmund is a bisexual disaster and Susan was kicked out cuz she was too straight??? Can I make CS Lewis turn over in his grave with this new reading?

…I mean they literally were in the closet…

THEY WERE LITERALLY IN THE CLOSET!!!

Reblog to make C.S. Lewis turn over in his grave

TBH, once the nuances were explained to him, I think he’d find it quite funny. 

@shannaraisles

YES.

Pretty sure they hype each other up

I love that Izzy not only did exactly what brennen asked for so he could hopefully win, but also just ended up responding with just “yeah”

They are. Perfect for each other. (Izzy is an enabler /j)

this might have been a fuck with brennan episode but this bit truly made me really happy
