this is because Dolly Parton is the equal or better of most strung- instrument players you can name, a fact often obscured by the vocabulary of iconography sometimes used to discuss her work. thanks for coming to my presentation this’ll take about half a hour

"Battle stations!", the starship captain cries. All of the translucent touch-screen control panels immediately retract to reveal synthetic wood-grain consoles covered in plastic toggles directly behind them.

Porn and erotica are important and societally valuable forms of speech, and the defense of them, in the face of state and church attempts at repression, is a necessary political act.

This is my favorite headcanon and it's a great example of how readers can offer a different reading of a text that the author never considered and did not intend, but is nonetheless validated by the text itself.
A shitpost so great Billy Joel actually heard about it

I have now seen the first episode of #HeatedRivalry and fortunately I have all of you guiding me along this road so I don't have to scream "what in the AO3 trope tags" out my windows.

Gets dark early this time of year, so I bought Rocket a light up collar.
But you see, he’s very floofy.

On the one hand, the extreme dramatics of this dog’s attempt to get early dinner need to be shared. On the other, a whole pile of you lot are going to come out of the woodwork to say “Sure, he’s had like thirty treats today, but that’s not ENOUGH!”

If you've never had a good look at the eyelashes on a greater roadrunner (Geococcyx californianus), check out the second picture. This one practically ran me over but stopped long enough to glare. Photo taken at Tingley Beach, Albuquerque on December 18, 2025.

my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

Had a dream last night that was the usual mess, but at the end, I was watching a giant polar bear walk toward me, carrying a volcano like a snailshell on its back.
“Welp,” I said to the person next to me, “that’s either a god or a Pokemon.”

Dammit, retailers, when I search for “dressing gown” I do not want a selection of flannel bathrobes, I want the one Hercule Poirot wore in the first season of Agatha Christie’s Poirot.
