âDid you see the way that little girl looked at me? Kids. Little kids. They grow up believing that they can be a hero if they drive a sword into the heart of anything different. And Iâm the monster? I donât know whatâs scarier. The fact that everyone in this kingdom wants to run a sword through my heart or that sometimes I just wanna let âem.â âWe have to get you out of here. Over the wall. We wonât stop until we find some place safe, okay? Weâll go. Together. No matter what we do, we canât change the way people see us.â âYou changed the way you see me⌠Didnât you?
NIMONA(2023), based on the comic by ND Stevenson, who came out as transgender in 2022
Okay so like, this is a hound right, they’re bred for large groups and the bark is more of a bay, and they bay both in their pack (group singalong bonding moment) and also at prey.
This? This is not an unhappy dog. That tail is loose, wagging slowly, and the dog is having fun.
This dog is demanding that their human gets up and does a group singalong with him on the piano (because humans can bark right but perhaps the piano sounds similar enough to him that it passes the vibe check) and she does (which reinforces the behaviour, hilariously).
So yeah, this is a group singalong: hound-dog-style
Iâm getting so pissed with people who are saying Gwen isnt trans. Like theyâre trying to explain why her dad has a trans patch on his jacket and why she has a trans flag in her room, by saying she supports trans people⌠wtf???? Literally what ally has a TRANS FLAG, IN THEIR ROOM, BECAUSE THEY SUPPORT TRANS PEOPLE??? Thatâs some shit closeted me would tell my parents when they saw me drawing rainbows. People that are saying this shit are literally just transphobic and dont want her to be trans. Gwen is trans and fuck everyone that argues against that.
which one of these is the so called âamerican flagâ
In Gwenâs universe trans people took over America and made the trans flag the national flag.
Vampire thatâs dirt poor, doesnât have a sprawling manor or vast riches accumulated by interest. Canât afford those black leather boots they really want. Travels as a bat to save money not cuz they like it.
Vampire that was super ugly in life so the vampiric glow up just made em a solid 5
Vampire too socially awkward to seduce/compel ppl to feed off them. Has to have their Chadier vamp friends to do it or steals blood bags from the hospital.
Vampire who turned into mist in a steam room and couldnât figure out which parts were him vs water, so he got stuck there for weeks
vampire whoâs afraid of flying so anytime they turn into a bat it makes them incredibly queasy
Vampires having a âwineâ tasting trying out different types of blood, discussing various textures and tastes and stuff like that. But one vampire honestly canât tell the difference cuz they donât like the taste anyway.
vampires who donât like the taste of blood so they have to disguise it by adding artificial flavors (fruit punch, watermelon, strawberry kiwi, NEVER blue raspberry lest it change the color too much and the other vampires judge them) in order to stay properly hydrated
Vampire that was obsessed with skincare when they were human, but now mirrors donât work for them so theyâre constantly looking for ways to see their reflection.
vampire that doesnât really need a familiar because when they were human they were just some working class schmuck used to taking care of their own business so they just pal around with them instead
Vampire that brings a night light to coffin cause theyâre to scared of the dark
Vampire that while in bat form hangs out with regular bats thinking theyâre also vampires. This goes on for weeks before they realize theyâre just normal animals.
The beaver-dragon post broke containment in under four days. Apparently beaver-dragons hit a nerve! Now there are facebook groups talking about how I forgot magic exists and overthink things, to which I must say: overthinking things is how you get more interesting fantasy and sci-fi worlds.
You could just say “The dragon magics its preferred home into existence.” You can totally do that!
It’s just kind of boring.
Tumblr, by contrast, tends to be ‘yes, and…’ so people take the same idea and ask “How does acid breath change this?” which is way more fun.
The “yes, and” approach is SO much better!
If a dragon has acid breath, then it doesn’t need gnawing teeth, and it can still be just as pointy and terrifying to prey!
Do you think it uses its tail to slap mud down around the logs, or is it smart enough to use hands? Cuz if it uses hands, then that opens things up to proper civilized decorations too, and I’m imagining some fascinating decorations made from adventurer gear.
every gym leader is like “I lost!?! UNBELIEVABLE!” buddy you live in a world where every ten year old child has always been offered a free fire breathing monster at least once and you brought nothing to this fight but anthropomorphic flowers
gym leaders’ whole job is to provide a specific challenge, a battle of a certain type and difficulty level. if you’ve brought the tools and skills to complete that challenge, you’re going to win by design. the pokémon in that battle are probably not actually the strongest pokemon they have.
when gym leaders go “argh, how could i lose??” they’re acting to give your victory legitimacy because you’re 10. they’re like a villain cosplayer letting a baby knock them over. they’re being nice!!
It occurs to me that there are people who werenât on this website in 2012 and therefore never saw the magical gif that you can actually hear:
Itâs been over five years and that still impresses the hell out of me.
wdym you can hear it?
Basically, itâs a form of synesthesia, movement-hearing. In this case, you expect to hear a thud, so you do. Itâs estimated that 20% of people experience this type of synesthesia, as opposed to 2-4% for other kinds.
YO what the FUXK
The longer you watch it the more you get convinced that you can hear a distant thud and the air displace.
I heard the thud. I closed my eyes and the thud stopped. I opened my eyes and I heard the thud. My goodness but human brains are a mess.
This was easily the first ever viral post on Tumblr back in 2011/12. Perhaps even before the great âwhat your leg feels like after falling asleepâ followed by a picture of a static teevee channel.
I THOUGHT I WAS DONE BEING HURT BY THIS BUT NOPE. I WAS WRONG.
the idea behind a grim (a big friendly ghost dog) is that because the first soul buried in a burial yard would be its guardian they would bury a Very Good Boy there first so a human wouldn’t be stuck at the gate so to speak. so in that way Laika is continuing an ancient tradition of a guardian spirit protecting the souls of everyone who passes after her.
