I was talking to my friend about Malevolent (because it now lives rent-free in my head) and I mentioned how John is called John, and she was like "haha how weird name for an eldritch god, I would call him... ummm Přibyl", and I was like " I don't think he would pronounce ř correctly" so it merged into Pribyl, which for some reason reminded me of Pribináček (joghurt brand), anyways, here is thing that I'm weirdly proud of:

He's a 10 but he's in a 'complicated' relationship with an elder god

John Doe is a really great eldritch horror monster, he really is, but I cannot take him seriously as one because he sounds like he’s talking through a Pringles can.

Arthur Lester is really The Guy Ever he’s incredibly dependent on the eldritch voice in his head to the point that he can’t live without him and they fight constantly and know each other better than anyone else ever could and he also maybe lowkey thinks he’s an omen of death which is fucked up he’s compassionate but he’s arrogant and hypocritical and he goes right to murder when he feels like he has to but is otherwise appalled by the idea he’s a whirlwind of a human being what the fuck even is he

And then John is really just trying his best to keep the feral gentleman from killing a man

This podcast is a buddy comedy.

here’s another arthur & john song for you guys if anyone needs a small dose of emotional pain before the month is up. true to my pfp: blind by placebo

i've recently taken an interest in the greek magical papyri and i have to say, one of my favorite spells is definitely the one to summon a crocodile to carry you across the nile river

If TMA was an office comedy, there would be a running gag about how Martin has had Every Job Ever before working at the institute.

Ex:

“Martin, where did you learn to drive like that?!”

“Oh, I delivered pizzas when I was younger.”

“Since when could you completely repair my 20 year old laptop?”

“I worked at an IT help desk for a few months when I was twenty.”

wait. just had a revolutionary thought about aeneas

say what you will about cicero but you have to admit that it's funny as hell that he wrote a formula for making callout posts

hi i am crying. i love you trans women ❤

I hope everyone realizes now that Dracula literally cannot steer the ship. The captain tied himself to the helm and a crucifix (he alluded to this earlier in one of his logs) and thus Dracula can't touch it.

Additionally Dracula's powers weaken during the day (iirc he can be in sunlight but his powers don't work) so he has to steer the ship via weather at night.

The man has been buffeting the ship with wind to get to England.

I grew up in a judgemental household, and have far too many memories of my mother saying "I just don't understand how/why someone would [insert common human behavior she didn't vibe with]." I heard it so often that my instinctive response to that attitude became--that sounds like a failure of imagination on your part. I may not share a person's preferences/habits/behaviors etc, but that doesn't mean I can't accept that such people exist, or exercise my emotional intelligence a bit to guess why humans might make some of the choices they do.

There is, however, one thing that consistently puzzles me about humanity, and that is how so many people seem to actively dislike spending time alone with themselves? I genuinely struggle to wrap my head around this.

i love how defensive the last part is, the greenland shark wrote that

every six months a new show comes out that looks like this

Troilus and Cressida is the wildest Shakespeare play because in one scene you’ve got the most boring white bread cishet romance of all time and in the next Patroclus informs the whole room he’s vers

“Other titles that have met the same fate include Everything Sucks, I Am Not Okay With This, Teenage Bounty Hunters, One Day at a Time, and Sense8.”

“we’re not comparing First Kill with Heartstopper we’re comparing how Netflix treats mlm-centric shows to how they treat their wlw shows.”

Here's Why Fans Are Outraged Netflix Cancelled First Kill

Netflix cancelled 'First Kill,' its teen drama about a vampire and a monster hunter in an ill-fated romance, and the internet wasn't happy.

The bury your gays trope has always disproportionately effected sapphic media and now the trope has evolved into entire TV series with sapphic leads getting canceled after 1 or 2 seasons for increasingly shady reasons but are still being pointed to as "representation"

Point blank being told sapphics are good for show but otherwise disposable

the impossible return

the current thing trad losers are losing their minds over is one singular dude on reddit that refurbished and hand painted a grandfather clock and they keep saying the guy “ruined its value” or “threw thousands out the window by vandalizing a precious heirloom” and let me just say as someone densely familiar with the world of antiques, there’s a 99% chance that this clock was a mass produced reproduction and there’s a 100% chance that clock is not as valuable as ppl think it is. when people hear the word ‘grandfather clock’ they’re always gonna assume you’re talking about something that was handmade in a woodshop by a jolly old man when rlly repros take up a waaay bigger slice of the market far more than any handcrafted items. and besides people will repaint or redecorate these ‘oh so sacred handcrafted items’ every day there’s a huge market for them. it’s the same reason why people like long furbies or dolls that have been customized to have like gore mouths or something. this is literally like watching a bunch of pretentious farts make a mountain out of a molehill. also the clock is kinda cool if I’m being honest
