You might be frustrated by the library never having a complete manga collection on its shelves at any given time, but the 12 year old checking out 14 volumes of One Piece at once is vital to the library ecosystem. He's like the sea otter keeping the kelp forest from being devastated by an excess of sea urchins.
To those curious some other keystone library species include:
—the retirees who’ve read more murder mysteries than I’ve had hot meals
—the paperback romance girlies (gender neutral) who check out every single bodice ripper the second it hits the shelves
—the dads very slowly making their way through a ‘1001 movies to see before you die’ list
—the one-man criterion collection who checks out like, three movies per day and brings them back the next. (TV series are only a minor roadblock.)
—kids who like Minecraft
---The new parents checking out 47 picture books for their 7 month old baby who clearly has nothing going on in their head except the Wii Sports Resort theme song

You did not kill him. I did.
so this morning i was playing with the slow-mo mode on my phone, hoping to get a majestic vid of a bumblebee taking off
but instead i found this dumbfuck
Oh my god its little flailing legs. I’m dying.

Aren't you worried about what we're gonna have to tell people? All of the lies we will have to memorize and be on the exact same page about? Everything we've done out here, what happened to Jackie, and Javi, and... No matter what, we can't trust the scientists. Oh, shit. We're gonna have to kill them, Van. And even then, someone could slip up when we get home, and then everyone would know what we did, and I don't know what would happen, but it wouldn't be good for us. Our futures would be fucked. This will follow us for the rest of our lives. This place will follow us for the rest of our fucking lives. Why is no one thinking about this?

#flashing back to 'scared? of what people think?' and 'just not interested in the drama' #and how it was gentle and ribbing back then #but how real it is. how real it's always been. because this isn't 2025 #it's 1997 #it's almost no queer characters on television #it's ellen coming out being a truly gargantuan deal #it's van saying okay i'm willing to try because what do i have to lose #and taissa saying i'm not only a lesbian but a young Black woman and do you know how much that puts on my shoulders? #and neither of them actually being willing or able to SAY it #both of them knowing they are so in love. they need each other so much. #but what happens when you're out of the woods #when need is refashioned under 'civilized' rules #when van's love and need are the same thing #and taissa's are not #what then. well. we know don't we #we know exactly what happens next (via @novelconcepts)
My friends are all roasting me for living a fanfic cliche when I just want to get swole on the cheap 😔

Kinda fascinated by the implications of enforcement here. Like, are you gonna have some huge, muscley personal trainer follow you home so you can prove you’re in a relationship? Would y’all need to bang in front of them like those old bedding ceremonies?
sorry that you think my fictional ship is illegal. I actually consulted a fictional lawyer about it and he had a talk with a fictional cop about the fictional laws and then they both looked at me, and very seriously said "we'll allow it because it's hot."
REMEMBER THAT EPISODE WHERE REESE THOUGHT MALCOLM WAS GAY AND MALCOLM THOUGHT REESE WAS GAY AND THEY TALKED ABOUT IT BUT LIKE THIS I’M CRYING
I know I’ve reblogged this and commented before- but my favorite part is that immediately after this, Malcolm is like “so anyway I got you these” and hands Reese some pamphlets about accepting yourself as queer that he got from the guidance counselor, and Reese is like “oh, I got you these” and hands him a grocery bag full of gay porn.
