casual intimacy kills me every time. grand gestures are cute and all but seeing two people who are just totally comfortable with having each other in their space, who dont think twice about leaning into each other and thoughtlessly holding each other while doing unrelated things….. thats love
Y’all know Jim parsons left the big bang theory cuz its toxic right??
Y’all know he os a gay man with moneywho is actually a really cool dude in rl??
Why all this “sorry gay/bi ppl gotta deal with this” from the straights??
Fuck you straight people, I am excited to see where this goes
Yea outside of TBBT he’s been a huge queer advocate, and shuts down homophobic bullshit. Like for example when Love, Simon came out and everyone was like “don’t we have enough of this/isn’t it too late for this?” He was like “do you people say that about every straight rom com that comes out??”
TBBT was his big break, he was a nobody before it. And unfortunately he got stuck with it for a while. Although he wasn’t afraid to use his newfound fame for a good purpose. And now that he’s free of it? We’re only gonna see more of his queer activism side.
Don’t forget that he’s an actor, not the character jfc. A gay guy trying to get a break signs a contract and gets stuck with a show, playing a shitty character….. Like. That’s not…. Don’t hate him for his first big role, yea?
The saxophonist is Big Jay McNeely, who died on Sept. 16th 2018 at the age of 91. He was a crucial part of LA’s postwar R&B explosion and helped lay the foundation for rock and roll.
In May 1953, Ebony magazine reported, “A young white lad got so hepped up over Big Jay’s music that he jumped out of a balcony onto the main floor, where he miraculously landed without hurting himself and went into a riotous dance.”
a bard so skilled he can grant twinks immunity to falling damage
character being all “you expect me to do X?” Gilligan Cut to character doing X
the squad gets captured and interrogated separately, and they’re all telling equally terrible, completely contradictory lies
people completely missing the completely unsubtle, very visible dangerous thing in the room with them
alternatively, people absolutely seeing the completely unsubtle, very visible dangerous thing in the room with them and just not giving a shit
bonus points if it’s a beleaguered minimum wage employee who just goes about their business like “yep same shit as always”
someone pretending they don’t know another character is eavesdropping, only to casually reveal at the end of the scene that they know (*leaving* “tell tom that he can come out now” *tom drops from the ceiling in spy gear, irritated*)
choosing to deal with the villain by just leaving them alone in a room with another character
the “hands go down” trope
example: “any questions?” *everyone’s hands go up* “…that AREN’T sarcastic?” *everyone’s hands go down*
how could all y’all forget “ACT NATURAL!”
These are all great but let’s not forget two characters giving extremely biased flashbacks to the same event that each paint the other as an incompetent loon
i would like to respectfully add: scenes where a character walks into a room, sees something scary, and turns around and walks out with no reaction or change of expression
a high-stakes zany action scene forced to come to a complete halt while some characters take a very, very long elevator ride
I also will never get tired of a dramatic description of something, somewhere or someone, then a sudden cut to the person doing something stupid, the place being average, or the object being used stupidly
I know Black Mask can genuinely be an intimidating villain (which I hope he is for the Birds of Prey movie) but the #1 version of him that I’ll always love is him in Under the Red Hood when he just has one banger line of dialogue after another. Also his beady little eyes are so fricken funny.
