Dame Maggie Smith
1934-2024
Okay but I have a request: Drunk Kara and Drunk Barry in the same room.
i think out of all the odd things i was up to on tumblr in 2015 skam is the hardest to explain to third parties. YES i was watching a norwegian show entirely in 4-15 minute clips posted at various times throughout the week on google drive. YES I watched the exact same plot play out the exact same way in 4 different languages. YES it was the most beautiful love story ever written. what about this is difficult to understand.
It is the year of our gays 2023 and I am still feral about Power Rangers (2017)
Exactly what I needed! I’m not bawling my eyes out AT ALL
AU where Bianca di Angelo survives and Nico miraculously lives to old age and somehow everything is still tragic as hell
Calypso: You…egotistical… Apollo: You spoiled… Calypso: Disrespectful! Apollo: Deluded! Calypso: Pretentious, pompous! Apollo: High and mighty! Calypso: Self-centered, untrustworthy, ungrateful, impossible, insufferable! Apollo: At least I’m not repressed! Calypso: REPRESSED?! I’ll show you “repressed!” ………………………………………………………………… Percy: (Throughout the Lightning Thief) Look, this is the way it works. First, I actually commit a crime, then you get to blame me for it! …………………………………………………………………. Magnus: And you are? Loki: Loki, the god of discord. You may have seen my likeness on the temple walls. Magnus: You know, they don’t do you justice. …………………………………………………………………. Carter: Do you realize how serious this is?Sadie: Do YOU realize how many times I’ve heard that today? …………………………………………………………………. Meg: So, how do we get down? Apollo: I don’t know. (She stares at him.) I don’t know yet. Meg: You scaled a thousand-foot tower of ice, and you don’t know how to get down? Apollo: Of all the ungrateful–! Look, if you’d rather take your chances on your own, that can be arranged! …………………………………………………………………. Magnus: [after one of the Viking men was eaten and then spit up my a sea monster but goes back to fighting it anyway] Give that guy a raise! ………………………………………………………………… Reyna: (Percy has his back to Reyna) Honestly you are the most boarish pig headed man I have ever met.
Percy: (Turns to respond) Hey Lady! I’ve seen the high born boys your type hangs out with ha… and I’m the only man you’ve ever met. …………………………………………………………………
Annabeth: Do you have a plan?
Percy: Uh… how about try not to get killed? ………………………………………………………………..
Piper: (Plotting how to escape the monster) So. What do we have to work with? Um… ropes?
Leo: Uh… no.
Piper: Grappling hooks?
Leo: Yeah-no.
Piper: (Exasperated) Your tools?
Leo: Hey, I’ve got this!
(Pulls out a knife)
Piper: Oh, great. He can pick his teeth when he’s done with us!
So that happened tonight...
Still in the early waves but seriously, the bill was introduced last week, with a three hour hearing and a laughable inquiry...and it passed.
"Companies could be fined up to $50 million for failing to take "reasonable steps" to keep under 16s off their platforms" but no consequences for parents or under 16 yo who'll eventually end up on those sites.
It's the equivalent of sticking a band aid on an injury without even looking at what the injury is or how it was caused.
It's got 12 months, so maybe, just maybe, there'll be amendments to actually address the issues they're trying to fix, but knowing them, probably not.
