Hi there. May I ask what you studied in college?

I got a BFA in illustration, with a creative writing minor.

we still get immediately shoved out of our immersion in tv shows or films when The Girl find a dead body and immediately shrieks - we just don't find it realistic because we're pretty confident most people would gasp rather than shriek (i.e. sharp inhale rather than sharp exhale) and it also feels unnecessarily (and predictably) misogynistic too, as men encountering corpses almost never do the same on screen

also of course please do tell us if you've actually encountered a corpse unexpectedly, because tumblr is absolutely a place where some people have done this thing and we love a good anecdote

suddenly imagining "burst into song" as a potential response

#I’ll say gasp #but from personal experience it’s less a noise and more… a startled freezing

you can be both an ethereal faerie dream girl and a horrid little dirt gremlin creature. the duality of woman

#seeing as a lot of people just straight up hear Alice instead of Alex and I’ve incorporated into a long running joke and respond to it #mostly it’s just funny because my name isn’t hard

Yes this poll is very biased in favor of North America lol

#Cartoon Network #literally was talking about Grim & Evil today #with a client I tattooed Courage the Cowardly Dog on #but there was definitely a lot of Animal Planet

The whole "You love me? You love me?" interaction where Lisa has to ask twice because she's so used to being unwanted (ouch, same) is cute and all, but at the same time it's like girl. Girl. He literally crawled out of his grave for you Hozier-style. He cried sewage tears when you rejected him. He whacked your stepmother over the head with a sewing machine for threatening you. He chopped off the hand of the guy who assaulted you. He got you off with a vibrator and the next day drove you to your dick appointment despite clearly hating the idea. He killed the guy who scorned you and nearly killed your sister for taking part in hurting you. And you never clocked that he was ass - over - elbows besotted with you? Oh honey.

When I was “I want him” about a male character im not saying I wanna fuck him. I want him like a spoiled little girl wants a pony, I want to him so I can put him on my shelf for safekeeping, I want him like a good hearty stew on a winter’s evening, I want to put him in a jar and shake it.
