If you think about it…. the acronym KYS isn’t saying “kill yourself,” it’s saying Kill Your Self. Three words. As in, kill the concept of the “Self” - your consciousness’s perception that it is an individual, that it has one meaningful isolated identity that is “you,” that it is not but a droplet in the grand ocean of interconnected souls of all living beings in this universe. I think this is beautiful. Embrace ego death and become one with everything. Everyone should KYS
the sirens wouldnt even have to sing beautiful or anything. id still come over to the shallows and rocks to see whats up see whats happening. whats all going on

all of my interview with the vampire stuff
[A scan of a children's book titled "The Beckoning Blue," the copy of which washed up on the river shore near the city walls along with a couple of unidentified bones; the copy seems to be in a pristine condition.]
Sir Terry Pratchett is a master of the written word but he ain’t shit for the way he trained me to accept dumb naming conventions because i got three missed calls on my phone from Scam Likely and I spent like half a day wondering who I knew named Scam.
Thinking about IWTV, as I often do, and I think for me Lestat is Claudia's mother, in a sense. There is a real toxic mother/daughter vibe to their relationship - both of them being jealous of each other over Louis' affection, how Louis begs Lestat to make Claudia a vampire - kind of analogous to a man pressuring his wife into having a child when she's the one who's got to actually go through the pregnancy. The fact they piss each other off in part because they're so similar - they dislike their own reflection in each other. But Lestat does love her, so deeply, but by the time he can actually get past all of that petty bullshit, it's too little, too late.
A bad day is just a bad day ☀️
There are Sooo many people that don't like or even hate Lestat because they've only seen the show
It's nearly impossible to dislike Lestat if you read the books, not only because he's literally the main character, but also because you get to see the complexity of his character
He's not a villain, and it irks me to no end that the show has portrayed him as such up to this point
I'm praying that season 3 will change some minds
fyi i will be extending some dark tendrils across the sky later today. just a heads up
My odes to Brando Sando so far 🫡
What the actual fuck is up with all the conservative advertisements on Tumblr?
No other social media has ever shown me ads that were further than what I want or even expect to see on my feeds.
I don't give a FUCK about maga hats or tailgate festival. Like where am I? Do they know who uses this platform?
"Why? Why do you care?"
Redrawing this. It was the second ever Stormlight scene I drew, from one listening on the audiobook, and I didn't much like it even before I got the kindle version and realised how far off my depiction was. So now, have a sufficiently wet and miserable Kaladin. And a very cute Syl.
adolin with the horsie spren … cries
the streets named after people from mistborn era 1 in era 2 is so funny. like these are figures of legend. and also street names. imagine survivor street. tensoon avenue. vin road
Okay but I've been thinking about this more, about how the Aes Sedai are so similar to the bene gesserit.
It is so amazing to me all the media that has taken inspiration from dune so directly
Now I have not read the books, and do not know in what ways the show diverges from the source material
But I got to say, the wheel of time season finale was a play by play of dune (of which I have read)
Like, the foretold chief of a desert people, who was not raised amongst those people, yet swiftly learns their ways, who can wield great powers and see the history of that people, and brings water to the desert
That IS Paul Muad'dib Atreides
