Today in science we learned that you can never gain cold, you can only have an absence of heat; and it made me think that maybe hatred doesn’t exist, and there’s only an absence of love.
this is the realist shit I’ve ever read
Well, damn.

stop messaging me oh my gosh guys i got like 80 messages, but thank you, and for those who don’t know, this book is called I Need You More Than I Love You, and I Love You To Bits by Gunnar Ardelius.
So… this applies to family, too, right?
Because relevant.

This says all that I feel needs to be said.
At least kids can grasp the concept.
That’s the thing… the kids grasp the IMPORTANT concepts. And yet so many deem them “too young to understand” any of it.
They understand better than we do, half the time. I think adults forget how to understand things as they get older, more jaded.
Adam West is the best character on Family Guy.
sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes writers say ‘lol no’ instead

What’s sad is that I was saying the tag in my head before I read it.

October is, among other things, held up as LGBT History Month.
Amidst that, October 11th, specifically, is ‘National Coming-Out Day.’
Now, this here’s Tumblr… and it’s a fairly safe space from what I’ve seen, and a place where people feel like they can be themselves, but that doesn’t mean everyone who’s “free” or “out” on Tumblr or other internet community sites is that free and out in their daily lives. Or that they CAN be.
I’m not going to go through a super-long post about this or get really personal with my own experience, but I feel it’s important to mention the day and its significance. I feel grateful that I can openly talk about Girlfriend on here (despite our super-complex relationship making that moniker just the best we can come up with), and that I have not received one bit of hate mail or one nasty comment about the fact that I do. It’s amazing… it really is. It’s how it should be, sure, but it still amazes me because I don’t see this kind of openness and safety in the “real world” most of the time.
So while I don’t need to “come out” over Tumblr, and I’m not here to discuss my personal life, I wanted to clear my queue for the day and leave this post up for the entirety of October 11th (it’s going to be hard, you guys, I’m an addict) in support of those who feel they can’t come out anywhere. In support of those who feel like their families and friends will never understand them. In support of those who fear for their lives should anyone find out their secret, or because they already know. In support of those who are bullied, outcast, persecuted and injured. In support of those who have lost their lives because of their sexuality, whether at the hands of others or their own.
I’d never encourage someone to come out just because someone put a name on a particular calendar date, but it’s at least a day to reflect on the act and the feelings and implications wrapped up in it… whether you haven’t yet, already have, or don’t need to, it’s still something to think about.
Sidenote: Today’s calendar designation is 10/11/12. That’s fun on its own, right?

Just One of the Reasons Joseph Gordon-Levitt Should Get Awards:
Found an interview talking about Looper, and some things stood out for me:
RianJohnson: Even though I was writing the part for Joe, the character is nothing like my friend Joe. Besides wanting to work with my friend, largely the reason I knew Joe was absolutely the right man for the job was because of the transformation it would require. He loves it and excels at it.
He loves four hour makeup jobs?
Joe: Three hours.
RianJohnson: Have I told you lately that I love you?
I have a lot of respect for actors who are willing to go great lengths to really make their part WORK, to create a complete character, and to keep that character’s integrity on a physical level, as well.
It’s one thing I adore about Tom Hardy, and I’m loving Joe’s efforts in Looper! Later in the interview, he says:
Joe: [….] But that’s what I love most about acting: becoming someone different than myself. If the character I’m playing reminds me of me at all, I feel like I messed it up. I want to see someone different on the screen. My favorite performances tend to be the ones where the actor really disappears in the role. [….] I tend to like the chameleons.
Well, you did an EXCELLENT job with “Joe” from Looper!!
I was saying to Girlfriend after watching the film, that when there’s a part in which JGL is shown but the character development is the progression of life towards “older Joe,” Bruce Willis’ age range, I honestly wasn’t interpreting the person on the screen as JGL-“Joe.”
I saw him, the same face we’d just seen as “younger Joe,” but my brain was like okay, here’s the other “Joe.”
That’s a serious WIN on the part of the acting. The writing, too, and the art of the film for giving a new setting, a new set of parameters around the character… but Joe had to pull off being different, progressing as this character that his main-thrust-of-the-film character hadn’t gotten to, yet.
But yeah… my film-watching mind forgot I was watching Joseph Gordon-Levitt playing this “Joe,” and just interpreted the face as “Joe” heading for “older Joe” played by Willis.
That’s when character acting really takes off.
Oh Barsad, you sassypants.
Yeah. If I hadn’t already found him eye candy, the lines from those middle gifs were what made me LOVE Barsad. Sassy-ass.
OHMYGOD.
I am in love with the method Nathan Johnson used to create the percussion in this score. That is everything I love about the art of music and sound creation.
I am in awe.
This soundtrack will be mine.
How does this always happen?
That awkward moment when you break 50,000 words on what was supposed to be a quick one-shot… again.
Apparently I just don’t have any idea how to write short fics. Acceptable losses was supposed to be just a quick threesome smut piece… now it’s got entire arcs going on and I’ve written 75,000 words of it.
Clipped was something I prompted hoping someone ELSE would fill then I kept getting all of these IDEAS…and yeah. I get way too into character development.
What is my life?
NO. STOP IT. STAWP. JUST KEEP WRITING. <3<3<3<3<3

This sounds so much like my GF and I… and it’s really not enough to call her my ‘girlfriend,’ and ‘partner’ somehow feels too business-y to me, even. I don’t have a word for this woman who completes me, who makes me part of something more, something better… but this quote just rang true for me.
I just wanted to see what you would do.
The moment the whole theatre fell in love.
ACCURATE
Also, can we just talk about this man’s MOUTH?… *swoon*
