i need male tv/movie writers to understand that i WILL yell "oh fuck off!" at the screen when they inevitably give every character daddy issues just because they have. guys PLEASE hug your kids and tell them you love them, this tedious trend needs to die with your generation.

negative covid test but i have some kind of plague with a cough and general soreness/tired. rescheduled my winter vaccines appointment cos i don't want to take whatever this is to a gathering of the sick and disabled. i'd skipped the low-mobility exercise classes this week cos of the tired.

I finished watching all 3 seasons of Invasion, I got very into it by the end but I seem to be almost alone in that. It's a bit slow at times and it's not until S3 that you finally get to see all the remaining main characters in the same place at the same time.

i had no idea there was a movie about tennis players having a threesome but this is a thing i have learned this week.

So anyway hi how are you?

Quite interested in how the BBC are marketing the follow up series of The Night Manager, catering to a specific female/gay male appreciation of Tom Hiddleston in a MMF scenario… Look at Tom and Diego Calva touching each other - this is what our lusty dreams are made of. 😈🥵

These three characters had better actually fuck each other in The Night Manager S2 because otherwise the BBC have moved well into bi-baiting territory at this point. They've promised us a bisexual threesome now and if they don't deliver one they'll deserve the online torrent of rage that ensues.

Every year, millions of #tuberculosis cases go undiagnosed. APOPO’s #HeroRATs use their powerful sense of smell to detect TB faster, cheaper, and more effectively—while creating local jobs. More cases found. More lives saved. 💙 #EndTB #TBDetection #GlobalHealth

the night manager but it's a version where the pet shop boys have upped the slash content by almost 19.3%

final part of this 'lokitty and labrathor' meme trilogy, for completeness

Happy Memeday

gravity < the weak force < electromagnetism < the strong force < whatever the fuck attracts dirt to your glasses

It's an older one, posted before elsewhere and maybe here as well, but I still think this is one of my best MCU memes. It's very hashtag relatable.

the most striking thing about Foundation so far is that i can't remember ever seeing so many male characters get fridged for the sake of female ones. and yes the bar for that is low but this show has leapt well over the bar and gone into a stable orbit around Planet Fridge. yay!

what if we started calling billionaires "over-mighty subjects"

In the charity shop they had a lot of Man Historical Novels, where the reader-insert protagonist is a general in the Roman army or a general in the Viking era, etc. I assume he gets to bang the hottest character in the book, but what's the item of clothing he won't wear? It's not a corset, right?

There's a lot of arse shots in Foundation isn't there?

archiveofourown.org/works/706445... Fanfiction update. In this installment the 'Fake/Pretend Relationship' tag at last becomes relevant, because curious eyeballs can be turned into SUBSCRIBERS! 😍💲 I hope the Instagram mug company I invented isn't real. I couldn't be bothered to actually check.

sometimes i know a name in the credits of a tv show/movie and it's *not* someone from doctor who. maybe not often, but it does happen sometimes. (it usually is though.)

The #sylki wedding was well-attended, but not all the guests attended deliberately.

🤔 Seems legit.

he's not wrong, he's just lying

Did you think I had forgotten #FratricideFriday? Well, you're right, I had. But I have remembered just in time!

Actors faking a convincing Scottish accent always sound a bit Fife to me, so I have concluded that people from Fife might also be faking it. Either the accent or maybe Fife isn't even real, like with Finland or pigeons.

look if you're going to complain about "indigenous brits" being "invaded" then yes i am going to be that bitch who asks if you mean the english. not because i think the english don't belong here but because you're being a twat and probably think king arthur built stonehenge in 1066 CE.

imagine being in a fandom where nobody knows who bonnie langford is. go on. imagine.

I can't remember which #FratricideFriday memes we've already had here. I have a whole folder of them though. I am sure this fact will please you.

"Try AI directly in your favourite apps … Use Gemini to generate drafts and refine content, plus get Gemini Pro with access to Google's next-gen AI for £18.99 £0 for 1 month" No, fuck you Google, those are the fun parts why the fuck would I want to pay you to do them for me?

Here is a Venn Diagram, which proves that I am right about this comparison according to science.

jesus only came back once 💚🐍

never forgiving the lotr trilogy for making it mainstream to just a film in the middle and expect us to just hang around until you've made the rest of it. no! this is not television, damn it! you're the "one story in one sitting" medium, i am not paying twice to see the ending!

We’ve temporarily lowered the #AO3 comment rate limit due to bots leaving spam comments.

a friend visited at the weekend and we watched thor: love and thunder and it was great. i really do need to accept the fact that the bits of the MCU i enjoy tend to be the bits the existing fandom can't stand. less controversially, the later ones make better use of hemsworth's gift for comedy.

I sincerely believe that anyone writing about climate change should legally have to declare in the first paragraph whether they will be dead by the time the worst effects hit.

The Baby Bang schedule is out! Please share and help us get the word out! 🐍⚡ #thorki #fandom

Remember when you were small and you watched Dotaman because it was on and had songs and bright colours even though you had no fucking clue what anyone on it was saying? Was the parrot clock thing they did every episode just THAT entertaining somehow? 🦜🤔

Once again it is #FratricideFriday. Feels like it happens almost weekly!

the two seconds of hope between trying to google some information and remembering that google's shit now. Footnotes to preempt mansplanations: 1. yes i know about search operators. they don't work. 2. ditto duck duck go.
