snl won’t be funny tonight because they won’t mention how memes about how a gay angel from the show supernatural went to mega hell after he told a homophobe that he loved him were how thousands if not millions of people found out about the US election results and the news about putin possibly stepping down.
nvm yall he’s not a homophobe he’s just an aquarius !
i think a found footage movie that is framed as twitch livestream could be really interesting or a horrible train wreck but i defiantly want it either way.
Im sorry the progression of “Jake has magic powers because uh… he rolled in a magic mud puddle… I guess?” to “Jake has magic powers because his biological parent is an alien who consumes the life force of the mutant children he creates to sustain himself” is. So fucking funny
Tolkien and Lewis are both products of their times & their sexism exerts itself in different ways but my favorite is how every individual Narnia book has the same number of named female characters as the entire LOTR series combined. It’s so fucking funny.
Second place goes to Lewis being deathly allergic to the concept of girls touching a sword and Tolkien just handing one to Éowyn and telling her to go fuck up the witch king
Lets be real im willing to forgive any and all period sexism from tolkien for eowyn. “I am no man”??? In the 50s??? I would have gone buckshit reading this while my useless husband sat for dinner commenting on the commies getting dangerous. Also a warrior woman who actually got ptsd and subsequent treatment and “And then her heart changed, or at least she understood it, and the winter passed and the sun shone upon her” and “i will love all things that grow and are not barren” ??? John Rohn Rohn really poured his heart and trauma into the girl-with-sword trope and no occurrence of it ever since has been that good.
