OK, In This Week's Episode, 'Now', He Stumbled, Running Toward The Gate, And Actually Fell. That's All

Starz is looking to build buzz for the project by promoting the search for the right actor to limn the lead character with the social-media effort #CastingShadow, inviting fans to weigh on who should get the gig.

Starz is finally finally FINALLY moving ahead with American Gods!!! (http://variety.com/2015/tv/news/neil-gaiman-american-gods-bryan-fuller-starz-1201520765/) So get those fancast gifsets out of your archive and start tweeting so that maybe they don’t cast the same white bread and mayonnaise sandwich you know they want to cast?????

OK, this will require some thought... :)

Perfect, reminded me of a lot of stuff in the comics I forgot, explains everything really well, yay!

An Analysis of Rick and His Pursuit of Jessie

It is a truth nearly universally accepted that the Jessie/Rick “romance” from The Walking Dead comic has been fraught with issues – big time issues. I will not catalog all of them as others have written lengthy analysis on the topic (from the sexist trope of women in refrigerators, from the worrying way they portrayed domestic violence, to Rick’s predatory behavior around Jessie prior to learning she was in trouble, etc.). What keeps tickling my brain is: why did they botch it so very badly?

(Note: This is not necessarily a defense of Rick, but rather an alternative way of looking at his behavior. It made me feel better writing it.)

okay so I’m doing a little experiment, hopefully it will turn out cool, but I need a little assistance from my Tumblr peeps first :)

so reblog this post and tag it with your Hogwarts House and your Zodiac Sign <3

So much awesome

I find it fascinating that, in this, season 6 of The Walking Dead, suddenly Rick Grimes is, literally, stumbling in altercations. It feels like it has to be intentional, usually Andrew Lincoln’s fights are really clean, but both the confrontation with Carter in the pantry from the premiere, (‘First Time Again’,) and the fight in the RV in the third episode, ('Thank You’,) have Rick stumbling.

In the pantry confrontation, after he disarms Carter and turns to face him, it looks like his right ankle twists, and his foot slips under him. Bugged me at the time, cause they usually don’t have mistakes like that? Then in the RV, after he knocks both guys down, and turns to shoot the Wolf in the front, he falls onto the bench on the left side of the RV, pops right back up, and shoots them.

Is it just me, or is that odd?

This little guy is such a brave (and very cute!) little soldier!

Cats really are against their people reading, meditating, all the things that make them less responsive to the cats. Computing is another one. Weird little beasts, lol

It is all true, cept the not keeping secrets of others part.

Slytherin Characteristics

Slytherins often feel like they have too much responsibility on their shoulders.

Common Slytherin Boggarts: Failure, death, being trapped, wasps/bees, being buried alive, and being alone.

Slytherins are more likely to develop OCD or Depression.

Some common Slytherin talents are acting, writing, playing piano, and dancing. Things that require great skill and practice.

Slytherins are firm believers in, “If you want something done right, you’ve got to do it yourself.”

Slytherin’s can’t keep a secret unless it’s their own, in which case they guard it with their lives.

Slytherin’s don’t “Forgive and Forget.” If you did it once, you can do it again.

Most Slytherins can be really friendly. (To those people who deserve it.)

Slytherins fear facing you after you’ve seen them cry.

Slytherins aren’t assholes, people are just too sensitive.

Slytherins are likely to come up with ‘What if?’ scenarios. These thoughts might even keep them up at night.

Slytherins hold grudges. They may not bring up what you did, but they’ll never forget.

Slytherins enjoy horror movies. But, less so if they’re watching them alone.

Slytherins don’t like relying on other people.

Slytherins can’t stand it when people ask stupid questions, especially when the answer is obvious.

Slytherins like to push the limits and see how much they can get away with.

When a Slytherin cries, it’s probably from stress, not sadness.

Slytherins fear failure.

Slytherins are their own worst critics.

Slytherins are often very misunderstood.

Slytherins keep arguing even when they know they’re wrong.

It’s typical of a Slytherin to struggle with religion; they have difficulty putting faith into things that they can’t explain.

Slytherins don’t get mad; they get even.

A Slytherin won’t forgive you for causing them pain until they’re sure you’ve recieved just as much (or more).

Sometimes Slytherins keep fighting long after they’ve forgotten what they were fighting for/about.

Slytherins are likely the most stubborn and persistent type of people.

When upset, Slytherins detach themselves from everything. If someone asks what’s wrong, they’ll lash out.

Many Slytherins use music and lyrics to express themselves.

Slytherins hate to be told, “You don’t understand” or having their competence questioned. 

Slytherins have an odd interest in the mentally ill/disturbed.

Slytherins tend to believe that they’re never good enough.
