one of my favorite things about dead boy detectives is that it doesn’t take its monsters too seriously because the monsters themselves aren’t the scary part - it’s the symbolism, the things they represent, that are truly scary. yeah, teeth face and the sprites and the demon that apologized for dragging edwin to hell are goofy because they’re not what we’re meant to be scared of. the real horrors are parental abuse, internalized homophobia, xenophobia, bullying, abusive relationships, stalking… i could go on and on. anyway this show is brilliant and i need 20 more seasons of it please and thank you
i am listening
So what ive gathered from the recent charity stream is that next we should gather all the hermits and set them loose on a lazer tag course in the dark just to see who comes out of it breathing. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.
reblog if it's okay for your mutuals to message you and create an actual friendship, not just interactions
I saw a post that was saying how great it would be for David Tennant to play Sherlock Holmes and I'm sure he'd do a great job but please entertain my counterpoint: David Tennant as John Watson and Catherine Tate as Sherlock Holmes
one thing i need to start living by is “become the thing that you want” if i want friends who throw themed parties maybe i should start throwing those parties. if i want someone who writes me love letters maybe i should start writing letters for the people i love. if i want to hang out at museums and pretty cafes maybe i should invite my friends to these places. and maybe even then i won’t find the kind of people i want to be around. but then i would have become the exact person i want to be around. and maybe that’s good enough.
