IMPORTANT

“I’ve been a massage therapist for many years, now. I know what people look like. People have been undressing for me for a long time. I know what you look like: a glance at you, and I can picture pretty well what you’d look like on my table. Let’s start here with what nobody looks like: nobody looks like the people in magazines or movies. Not even models. Nobody. Lean people have a kind of rawboned, unfinished look about them that is very appealing. But they don’t have plump round breasts and plump round asses. You have plump round breasts and a plump round ass, you have a plump round belly and plump round thighs as well. That’s how it works. And that’s very appealing too. Woman have cellulite. All of them. It’s dimply and cute. It’s not a defect. It’s not a health problem. It’s the natural consequence of not consisting of photoshopped pixels, and not having emerged from an airbrush. Men have silly buttocks. Well, if most of your clients are women, anyway. You come to male buttocks and you say – what, this is it? They’re kind of scrawny and the tissue is jumpy because it’s unpadded; you have to dial back the pressure, or they’ll yelp. Adults sag. It doesn’t matter how fit they are. Every decade, an adult sags a little more. All of the tissue hangs a little looser. They wrinkle, too. I don’t know who put about the rumor that just old people wrinkle. You start wrinkling when you start sagging, as soon as you’re all grown up, and the process goes its merry way as long as you live. Which is hopefully a long, long time, right? Everybody on a massage table is beautiful. There are really no exceptions to this rule. At that first long sigh, at that first thought that “I can stop hanging on now, I’m safe” – a luminosity, a glow, begins. Within a few minutes the whole body is radiant with it. It suffuses the room: it suffuses the massage therapist too. People talk about massage therapists being caretakers, and I suppose we are: we like to look after people, and we’re easily moved to tenderness. But to let you in on a secret: I’m in it for the glow. I’ll tell you what people look like, really: they look like flames. Or like the stars, on a clear night in the wilderness.”

— What People Really Look Like

Jade, to Kit: I may not get the same amount of daily sleep as you do, but can you do THIS? Jade: *gets up and immediately faints*

i need need need to have a mini-rant about call it what you want in s4e6 of hsmtmts.

if you rewatch call it what you want in s4e6, you can can clearly see maddox realizing that the song is about her and ashlyn when the camera switches to her after the "are we friends or somethin' better?" in the first verse. it's like she was paying attention before, but now she's like, completely focused on this. I personally feel that you can see some sort of shock in her eyes, realizing that ashlyn just might like her back. anyway. thoughts.

Tanthamore is basically perfection. The arc. The looks. The denial. . The 'she is my world' faces. The smiles. The emotion. DAMNIT! IT'S TOO MUCH FOR MY MORTAL HEART TO TAKE

Some of yall needed to hear this

Very interested in how Qimir kind of let his mask fall when he realized “Mae” was actually Osha in ep 2. Like immediately when he says “you look just like her”, his whole demeanor changes from the jovial non threatening potion master that he played for Mae, into a character much more similar to the version we see when his literal mask falls in ep 5.

This is terrifying

#if i had a nickel for every time something like this happened in star wars, i'd have two nickels, which is not a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice

Just found out The Acolyte is not being renewed for season 2 and I’m fucking pissed. Filoni gets to piss around in his Mandoverse using nostalgia points to mask shitty writing all he wants but the first live action Jedi-centered TV show that pushes the boundaries of what Star Wars can be while still staying true to the spirit of it gets canceled? I hate it here
