be careful about your cleaning products and dont get yourself injured or potentially killed ok

They find each other in every universe 🤍

am i gay?

I’d say so

Oh, how the foreign lands are beautiful,

And how tempting they are,

And how they lure you in,

And how long your stay there is.

And then you crave the familiarity of home.

You travel back, trekking through hours of travel,

Just to find yourself back where you started.

Hello, hello, hello! This is my first post! I've just made it back home from a vacation, and I thought Why not write a poem? So I did! This poem is about the allure of vacations, but not feeling fulfilled during them, and then, when you get home, wishing you were back on vacation.

One thing I love about Neil Gaiman’s new Netflix show Dead Boy Detectives is Crystal. Crystal is the female lead, and she is MESSY. She makes umpteen mistakes, she hurts people, she’s selfish, she frequently lacks empathy, etc, etc. And I kept expecting Crystal to be revealed as a villain in disguise, because female characters don’t usually get to be messy like Crystal unless they’re bad guys. Male characters can be anti-heroes, sure, but female characters are expected to be likeable.

Crystal is more than a collection of her least likeable character traits, of course. She is brave and tenacious right from the start, and she has growth over the course of the season. But I was fascinated by the ways she isn’t a typical female protagonist. She is allowed to be abrasive, and her sharp edges are allowed to cut other sympathetic characters to ribbons at times. But the narrative never takes the easy way out and makes her a villain for it.
