In one story a man goes to visit Freyr for a few weeks but leaves after only a few days because Freyr’s house is filled with gay men which makes the guy super uncomfortable, so it’s absolutely a valid interpretation that Freyr is god of queer men and bisexual himself, considering that he falls head over heels in love with the jotun woman Gerd.
Odin is said to be Tyr’s father in one text, but in another text its Hymer. Neither Odin’s wife Frigg or Hymer’s wife Hrodr are said to me his mother. When Loki is accused of being slutty and sleeping with a bunch of men in one story, Loki says Odin used to do that too. Jotun men can get pregnant, and if you put all that together you can absolutely make a case for Tyr having the manliest family tree ever.
In Lokasenna Tyr and Freyr appears to be close, and you can see why.
The people Deadpool express attraction to in the movies.
I’ve seen people say comic Deadpool is a pansexual who prefer women but who’s most long-lasting and important relationship ended up being with a man, Cable. Movie Deadpool on the other hand seems to be a pansexual who prefer men but happened to fall completely in love with a woman, Vanessa. There might be something to that theory.
It’s pretty obvious that Colossus becomes Wade’s “replacement Vanessa” because he’s the only person who puts his foot down and insists on caring for Wade, so Wade kinda starts treating him like Vanessa because he misses her so much and doesn’t know what to do with all the love he still has for her.
Fun fact, Peter is a beekeeper so that might be why Wade calls him Sugar Bear. I’ve said before that Dopinder is the only man who never complained about Wade hitting on him, and that’s because Peter is too naive to notice such things so his lack of complaints doesn’t really count for much. For example, it’s pretty obvious from Peter’s twitter that his wife is cheating on him but he can’t tell.
I didn’t realize this, but someone pointed out that Dopinder shows a lot of signs of someone coming from a broken home where the parents were constantly fighting. When Deadpool and Cable fight in his taxi he is visibly distraught, and when they start fighting over HIM he looks like he’s about to cry. The whole thing is so upsetting to him that when Wade caress his face he starts to pull away but then changes his mind and push back into his hand, like he hates that they’re yelling at each other but he also likes when Wade pets him. He’s so damn conflicted and upset about the yelling and has to remind himself that they’re not his parents?
In Scandinavian mythology there’s only one person who can beat the god Thor in a wrestling match: the elderly woman Elle.
When Thor was asked to wrestle her he laughed, thinking it would be the easiest win of his life, but he had to admit defeat within minutes because Elle is no ordinary old lady. She is the personification of aging itself, and no one can beat age.
She is the symbol of aging and badass grandmas.
UM I EITHER WANT MAGGIE SMITH, BETTY WHITE, OR CICELY TYSON TO PLAY HER PLEASE
Human: “It must be a dreary existence, unable to love, to eat, to sleep, to laugh… I feel sorry for you.” Robot: “I can laugh. I have a sense of humor, you know.” Human: “Really? I’ve never heard you laugh before.” Robot: “I’ve never heard you say anything funny.”
Hello 911 I’d like to report a violation of the First Law of Robotics, this robot just straight up murdered a human
I think the best piece of character design advice I ever received was actually from a band leadership camp I attended in june of 2017.
the speaker there gave lots of advice for leaders—obviously, it was a leadership camp—but his saying about personality flaws struck me as useful for writers too.
he said to us all “your curses are your blessings and your blessings are your curses” and went on to explain how because he was such a great speaker, it made him a terrible listener. he could give speeches for hours on end and inspire thousands of people, but as soon as someone wanted to talk to him one on one or vent to him, he struggled with it.
he had us write down our greatest weakness and relate it to our biggest strength (mine being that I am far too emotional, but I’m gentle with others because I can understand their emotions), and the whole time people are sharing theirs, my mind was running wild with all my characters and their flaws.
previously, I had added flaws as an after thought, as in “this character seems too perfect. how can I make them not-like-that?” but that’s not how people or personalities work. for every human alive, their flaws and their strengths are directly related to each other. you can’t have one without the other.
is your character strong-willed? that can easily turn into stubbornness. is your character compassionate? maybe they give too many chances. are they loyal? then they’ll destroy the world for the people they love.
it works the other way around too: maybe your villain only hates the protagonist’s people because they love their own and just have a twisted sense of how to protect them. maybe your antagonist is arrogant, but they’ll be confident in everything they do.
tl;dr “your curses are your blessings, and your blessings are your curses” there is no such thing as a character flaw, just a strength that has been stretched too far.
This is such a fabulous flip side of what I’ve always known about villians. That their biggest weakness is that they always assume their own motivations are the motives of others.
i was in a thrift shop the other day and they were playing the most unsettling variations of normal christmas music, culminating in this rendition of the 12 days of christmas except it was like 12 guys all singing over each other and going “no!” and interrupting the lyrics with random other phrases until they deadass just started singing 5 golden rings to toto’s africa. can anyone confirm that this is a real song and not that i stroked so hard i astral projected into a universe where everything is somehow worse than it is here
Okay in my house we have a strange tradition. My mother builds this beautiful Christmas village.
It wraps all around our house through the rooms and under the trees and it’s wonderful.
Every year she hides the Christmas Vampire
This started when I was a very small got child and spread to all of my friends, including my best friend from elementary school who I just so happened to grow up and marry. Now that we have grown up and moved nearly 600 miles away we still always go home for a week at Christmas for multiple reasons, including the Christmas Vampire.
Needless to say we still partake and things have gotten heated.
Stay tuned for the epic conclusion and to see my husband and father in Lin-Manuel Miranda’s sooty costume when I find the Christmas Vampire First!
Happy Haunting!
Dad has no fricken clue how to trash talk and I don’t trust him in the slightest.
The saga continues. Mom hasnt finished the village yet and it’s starting to get to her….
