Sonic Spocket-Wrench: For when logic could be a little more sonic. Ari. 20. I like to think, often about fictional characters. Shameless meta-junkie (so if you know a blog, hook me up...) and I'll probably post a few of my own once I get the time. Supernatural, Sherlock, Doctor Who, Avengers, Merlin, Hunger Games, Harry Potter, Once Upon a Time, Firefly with a lot of random other things, and occasional (calm!) social justice. *Please*, come talk to me. Seriously, just do it. I don't bite (unless you ask nicely.) |
I couldn’t decide where I wanted Coulson to be sorted, so.
Too adorable, could not not re-blog

My AP euro teacher wouldn’t let our class watch Les Mis so we barricaded the door and screamed “VIVE LA REVOLUCIÓN” when he tried to get in.
that is the face of a man who is 24601% done
No.
He did nothing in the name of the Doctor.
Therefore, he does not count as the “Ninth Doctor”
We had a system, Moffat

THIS FUCKING MOVIE OHMAGAD
Nonono, you all don’t understand.
Do you realize how important this line was?
DO YOU EVEN REALIZE???
Because when you’re a young girl seeing this scene for the first time, it makes no sense at all.
The movie starts out with the handsome prince and the beautiful princess hitting “love-at-first-post-pubescent-sight” basically right away, dancing on goddamn clouds to romantic music, kissing, and the man declaring that they’ll get married. At this point, (because you’re young and have no concept of timing) your thought process is “pretty girl + handsome guy + kiss = happily ever after, YAY! story is done” and you are COMPLETELY OKAY WITH THAT, BECAUSE YOU’VE BEEN TOLD OVER AND OVER THAT LOVE REQUIRES NOTHING MORE THAN FIRST SIGHT. Healthy love, in your mind, is a swoopy feeling and a first kiss.
So when Odette doesn’t just go with it, you go whoa whoa whoa, why are you questioning this?? When she outright refuses him because he can’t give a better reason than “beauty”, YOU ARE ON DEREK’S SIDE BECAUSE YOU HONEST-TO-GOODNESS CAN’T ANSWER THE QUESTION “WHAT ELSE IS THERE?”. YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN TOLD THERE NEEDS TO BE SOMETHING ELSE.
You have seen in countless other stories that the princess is beautiful and the prince loves her right away and this is true love. If nothing else is considered, then beauty must be enough… if nothing else is considered, nothing else matters.
In my case, even after Odette answers the question with “I needed to know that he loves me for just being me” I didn’t get it. Love and Beauty were so intertwined that I didn’t understand there was a difference. By the end of the movie, when Derek says “I love you for your kindness and courage, I always have” it had started to make sense a little. But only a little. I still remember re-watching and forgetting the answer to “What else is there?” but the thing was… I expected an answer.
This movie taught me that I am not defined by beauty, that when society asks “What else is there?” I can respond with “There’s me.”

So my mom and I have been working the same waitress job for 5-6 years now. She had been waitressing years before, but this is recently. Anyway, about… 15 minutes ago this guy she waited on left and told her to take care. Just that. Prior to this she had talked to him about Italy. Her people are from Florence, this and that, and she said she’s never been. She’s got 8 years of art education and she’s working a waitress job. It’s pretty… Sad and disappointing, I guess. Her and my father divorced 6 years ago and she hasn’t had a real job ever. Just been stuck in a small town she’s not from.
This man who we have never seen before tipped her 1000 dollars for a trip to Italy. Walked out, not another word.

Something I’ve observed from watching Cas. I am planning to cosplay Castiel. Part of that is getting the body language right, and not just in an RP sense, but literally so that the clothing will hang correctly. I studied Misha pretty closely, and there was something OFF about the way he stood and moved. The first thing I noticed was that there were NO “excess” movements. He operates the body like someone who has to do everything on purpose, and a little like CGI in that sense…there is nothing unconscious, everything is a tad too smooth, too graceful, too deliberate, and in between there is an utter stillness that’s particularly noticeable compared to Dean.
That brought me a lot closer, but it was still Not Quite. So I started experimenting with stance, with carriage, with posture. His posture is excellent, but not military-at-attention, but there was something closer there…and I hit it when I had a minor epiphany about Misha as a practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism, meditation, and yoga, which intersected with the idea of wings. I moved my center of gravity from the heart chakra (breath, mortality, love) to a posterior placement in the throat chakra (spirituality, drive, duty). Simultaneously, I discovered that now my “Castiel Stance” was perfect, and that I had to use my core muscles in a way that was akin to when I hike with a well-fitted frame pack…or, in other words, have a weight hanging off my upper shoulders from the back.
I actually said out loud “you brilliant bastard.”
OOOOOOOOO
snowlantern replied to your post: Ive seen you mention Cas wing-influenced center of gravity a couple times now, but unfortunately dont have the time to rewatch enough to check. Is that in fact something youve observed in Cas (in which case, add one more to the column of holy shit Misha and his Acting On Camera skills) or just a really neat bit of headcanon?
It will be VERY interesting to see if he (as human!Cas) shifts his center of gravity towards the heart chakra next season. That would make so much sense.
He already has. It’s part of why people are saying he looks “more like Jimmy” now but can’t put their finger on why. Look at how he’s holding his shoulders and body and how he’s moving, how much more forward and lower he’s carrying his weight and the awkward little shifts and how much more subtle movement he has. He’s IN the body now, not driving it. And it’s wingless.
Let me explain you a thing.
When I say I adore Misha Collins, I don’t mean because he’s attractive or funny (though that comes into it), I mean because he is a genuinely nice person.
I was at Asylum 10 this weekend, and for Misha’s autographs he wasn’t allowed to personalise things because of time constraints which is fair enough. However, when I was getting mine, I managed to blurt out (I mean it I was shaking really hard) how important it was to meet him, as Asylum 10 was a goal for me not to kill myself.
The second I said that he stopped writing and looked up at me, and his response was:
“You need better goals.” I almost laughed but I was really trying not to cry, so I responded with:
“No. I don’t.” At this point, he reached across the table and grabbed my hand, pen still off the paper. He looked up at me, shaking and almost crying and smiled and said the simplest thing. At this point he let my hand go.
“See you next year?” I nodded, I was shaking really hard and I picked up the picture and went to leave, but he grabbed my hand again and pulled me back a little. He asked for my name and then wrote what it says on the top left hand corner. He squeezed my hand and smiled and then let me go.

Black Man to Lose Scholarship For Refusing Racist Assignment
Timothy McNair is a graduate student of opera at Northwestern University’s famed Bienen School of Music. McNair is at the school on a full scholarship, but the 25-year-old is standing up to his school after his professor, Donald Nally, gave him an assignment to perform a song created by a racist American poet named Walt Whitman. McNair asked his instructor if he could be assigned to perform the work of other artists but Nally denied him the opportunity and told him if he didn’t turn in all of his completed work by Friday, May 17th he’d receive a failing grade. McNair refused.
“Certainly I do not deserve to fail this class. I have a 3.7 GPA. I’m an officer on three committees of this university. So what is deserving for me? Is to be able to perform two pieces and have the third piece removed because of the insensitivity,” McNair told Chicago’s WGN news station. Although the piece McNair is instructed to perform does not contain any blatant racism, McNair believes it is still offensive that he was asked to complete the works of a devout racist. “We know (he) was historically racist. He’s called African Americans ‘baboons’ and was for oppressing voting rights,” McNair said of Whitman.
But let a white person had to sing a song written about Osama or Sadam that shit would have been on every new station.
UGH now I can’t even enjoy walt whitman goddamn it.
This is not acceptable, so speak up.
“Tell the university’s president Morton Schapiro that Timothy McNair deserves another assignment. He can be reached at 847-491-7456 via phone or nu-president@northwestern.edu via email.”

Dean has a genuine love of all-American “road food” as a comfort, but is starting to explore and stretch his boundaries a little. So I’d riff off of...

What if I summoned a crossroads demon and made a deal to live forever, or...

This will be the best audio post I will ever post.
My heart breaks every time when I hear this. I don’t even know why so much, I’m just crying.
