having a job and knowing how to drive on tumblr is like being a knight who has to live with the serfs

This is the best thing I’ve seen in years

New research led by Kazuo Fujita of Kyoto University has found that your dog is the best wing man/woman. The researchers tested three groups of 18 dogs by putting them in rooms with their owners as well as two strangers. The owners were tasked with opening a box, and solicited help from the two other people in the room (sometimes they would help and sometimes they would refuse). After watching their owners either be rebuffed or aided, the dogs were offered food by the strangers — and were much more likely to ignore the stranger who had been unkind to their owner.

In a study, dogs refused food from people who had slighted their owners

Tick tick tick I agree with everything you just said

What's your take of the whole Klaus and Dave thing. Like they're relationship, his death, the way Klaus deals with it, and Klaus seeing him in the 60s. I think they're amazing and deserved better, I also think it was some bullshit that Ben was like eW tHaTs StAlKiNg AnD iTs GrOsS aNd CrEePy. Thank you 🙂

It is maybe not my most woke take but I love all of it. Especially with the s2 development of Klaus saving Dave's life. But I'll go through point by point!

Their relationship: I think that their relationship is a testimate to the skill of the writers. They made us miss it, and they made it feel real. It's clear to me that Klaus loved Dave and Dave loved Klaus. The scenes we get of them in s1 are intimate and sweet and sexy and beautiful. I totally believe in them and that it happened, and I think emphasizing absence is brilliant.

His death: I've often said this is why Tumblr would deem me bad queer rep, but I like sad stories. I think Dave's death is fascinating and beautiful and it does seriously important work in s1 AND s2. In s1 it encourages Klaus to be more vulnerable and more actively caring, because that is who Dave was and Klaus sees he isn't like that. In s2, Dave's death drives Klaus to try and FAIL at being caring and selfless and open in a way that I think will ultimately lead to some very interesting destruction.

60s: I think having Dave be a baby this season was so, so smart. Klaus's best case scenario was that he makes it so he never meets the love of his life. Klaus is not happy and he isn't allowed to be. I think this is all leading to a snap. And I ultimately think it's leading to Klaus and Dave as endgame. I think it's gorgeous.

Ben has always used Dave to influence Klaus. In s1 he says that Dave would expect better of him than relapse, which isn't true. Dave loved Klaus as an addict and did not put stipulations on it. Ben uses Klaus's love for Dave to try to get what he wants, and then this season calls Dave a "Vietnam fling" and it is fucked! I like it a lot. I think it's great writing. Ben has been sidelined and used by Klaus in unfair ways and Dave is leverage and a way to hurt Klaus and it makes sense he uses it. That said, it's fucked and untrue. Klaus trying to save Dave's life without ever engaging with him romantically or sexually is not stalking. Klaus left him alone for 3 years. I think that the relationship between Klaus and Ben had degraded, possibly beyond repair. It fascinates me.

Imo, Klaus and Dave are endgame. We haven't seen the last of them, at the very least. I am excited by what comes next and I love what we've had before.

March has some fucking nerve showing it’s face around here again
