Sports are so fucking weird, and the ONLY thing that keeps them from being a religion is the lack of a higher power or an afterlife.

You’ve got: rituals, sacrifices, superstitions, gatherings, songs, festivals, pilgrimages, fellowship, celebrations, talismans, idols. You’ve even got miracles.

These things seem to be more present in certain leagues than others—NCAA basketball and the English Football League come to mind for having teams, coaches, and fans who will go to extremes AS A COLLECTIVE, not just as individuals. They treat their local sports bar like a parish. They have their cathedrals and their songs and their holy-war rivalries.

I understand the inclination to not care. And in many ways, I don’t care either. (American football is a drag at ANY level, and all they’ve got by way of ritual is TAILGATING.) But if you’ve never celebrated a victory—one you truly cared about, one you prayed for—by dancing and singing in the streets with a couple thousand strangers, I recommend it.

On the Leviathan (after the revelation, while Carth and Bastila remain in stasis):

Darth Malak: Now your pilot has a desperate desire to kill you, Revan...

Half-amnesiac Revan: So do you!

Darth Malak: You've never been able to choose lovers, as far as I can see.

Half-amnesiac Revan: I feel like I became smarter over the years... That's why he isn't my lover, as a matter of fact.

Funny thing is, poem 72 is actually from Still Water, his book of prose poems published in 1989.

Uncle Artie has been out there for a bit longer than 2017.

He's been inspiring older generations of fans for decades, and I love that he still inspires younger folks.

Our beloved Bi Emperor. 🥹

finding out art garfunkel is bisexual has seriously changed the trajectory of my life like something just shifted in the universe

Did John really say to Paul "I like it when you're brutal"? Where did that come from?

Yes he did! You can hear it here:

It's a segment of studio chatter used in Eight Days A Week: The Touring Years (2016). The conversation is even included in the transcripts of the film:

Katniss And Peeta! I Based The Prints For Their District 12 Clothes Off Of Depression Era Flower Sack
Katniss And Peeta! I Based The Prints For Their District 12 Clothes Off Of Depression Era Flower Sack

Katniss and Peeta! I based the prints for their District 12 clothes off of depression era flower sack dresses. Also I didn't feel like doing grime on their arena clothes because I'm texture-challenged ): rip. So lets say it's them from right before they go in.

also be prepared for more ouchie revelations, just as a precaution :) every time I rewatch it, there are more things that exist just to pain me

wait! is it giraffe time? I shall try to find giraffes! we shall see how well I do, though, cause I do plan to take a little nap. I watched a no commentary playthrough for it the very time I watched it, and somehow fell asleep during a fight scene? so I didn't miss anything important, but man was I confused. I am just a sleepy little guy

I admire the fuck out of romantic co-stars who are friends in real life because just imagine being like “oh yeah Brandon and I are best buds, couldn’t live without this guy” as though you haven’t seen his O face up close with three cameras running
