My gosh this is super fun. I went and looked up Rex Velvet, too, and his videos are hilarious. Like you said, he doesn’t seem to have done anything truly villainous, at least not in an illegal sense, but he seems to have distributed these “Superheroes not welcome” posters. It’s interesting that he seems to be pro-police, actually, so he’s not nessecarily promoting villainy, just denouncing vigilantism (and brandishing weapons in a vaguely threatening manner, but other than that).
But yeah, the videos turn out to be sketches more than anything, but it’s still really fun. It’s hilarious how he keeps calling Phoenix Jones and crew nerds when he appears to be out-nerding them by leaps and bounds. I mean, he’s sitting there straight up drinking Firewhiskey, and apparently he has a DeLorean? He’s a ridiculous nerd and I love him, even if I don’t nessecarily agree with his anti-vigilante stance. (I mean, there’s pros and cons. We can discuss the legal/functional implications of vigilantism another time.) Anyways he’s also thrown a super swag villain party and he has cat-minions, so.
(This is his intro video with the firewhiskey, his anti-Phoenix Jones premise, and his vaguely threatening weapon brandishing. This one introduces his anti-superhero poster campaign, also featuring the DeLorean. Here is the sketch with his totally not photoshopped cat minions (that might be spoilers, sorry), which is probably the funniest of all of these, and here is his villain party, with some villains who are more swag than certain others.)
Also there were links in the comments section of the first video to more articles about Phoenix. I started reading this interview and it was quite interesting--it explains how he chose his name, for example: “Phoenix is my son's name, and Jones is the most common last name in America, so I did it for my son and for the common person.” But then I got distracted by Rex’s nerd-swag villainy and I didn’t finish reading the article. Phoenix seems really cool, too, though.
Washington State (not DC) is the only state in the union where you can legally have a fistfight with somebody (with police as referees) to settle your differences
What can I say? I love me a good complex light side/dark side ship with hope for redemption.

D’aaw :) I love how Spicy Watson’s art always has such lovely bright colors. It’s really such a pretty art style. Also: overly formally dressed baby children. Plus, all of the family feels :) Very sweet.
just like gertrud…
[PLEASE DO NOT REPOST ANYWHERE]
And I suppose I’d be remiss if I didn’t also reblog the lovely part 2! Dancing, romance, political drama, Kylo Ren with a flower in his hair, and my gosh this art style. I love it :)

I love how soft and whimsical this art is; it feels subtle and minimalistic and yet still very pretty. It’s like something out of a story book, and it captures the aesthetic mood of daydreaming. Lovely :)
Also I still haven’t seen 13 yet but now I own her coat since I dressed as her for Halloween and it’s very fun to swish around in her long flowy coat :) Definitely putting her season on my Christmas list.

I sat "nice try, giant worms" as my main screen and it makes me smile and chuckle every time I open my phone :)
The general WTNV one is my lockscreen and it’s also lovely. I do love that Night Vale’s official color is purple (I have a fondness for purple if you hadn’t guessed) and of course, purple is even better with stars :)
more wallpapers i don’t think i posted. like and reblog if you use!

Boardtober Day 1: Autumn or Falling Leaves
Oh yay I got tagged in a tag game!!
Oh no I am horrible at decisions!
(I cheated and used italics for ones I felt less strongly about, and I also used numbered asterisks to add third options and commentary. I also chose both options more than once because I am incorrigibly indecisive.)
ancient or modern • bitter or sweet • chocolate or vanilla • coffee or tea • create or destroy • day or night*1 • early bird or night owl • freckles or dimples • gold or silver • greek mythology or egyptian mythology*2 • macarons or eclairs • hot or cold • thunder or lightning*3 • typewritten or handwritten • secret garden or secret library*4 • spicy or mild • dark magic or light magic • ocean or desert*5 • mermaids or sirens • known or unknown*6 • rough or smooth • moon or stars • rain or snow
*1. What about like... evening, like from golden hour into sunset into twilight?
*2. Norwegian mythology is my real favorite.
*3. I mean... how do you separate the two? A thunderstorm is meant to be seen, heard, and felt, deep in your core. And smelt, too. Have I mentioned how much I love thunderstorms?
*4. Consider: a secret library inside a secret garden!
*5. Except in the case of the Killjoys, of course.
*6. This depends so much on context...
I’ll tag... @saturnrx , @ravenfal , @mellone-collie (or @frankiemustlive ), and anyone else who wants to do the thing :)

Anyways I saw the new movie and I do indeed have a great many feelings...
But for now, have these cute vintage Star Wars Christmas Cards. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone!
STAR WARS Christmas cards from 1977.
When Dracula was giving his big speech about all the battle triumphs of his family over the years and he mentioned "that great shame of my nation, the shame of Cassova," I lowkey read it as "Casanova" at first and I thought that Dracula was just throwing shade at his weird horny cousin who slept around a lot. I was like "oh I didn't know they were related" until I looked at the word closer, lol.
Welcome, dear traveller, to our fantastical lande shrouded in swirling violet mists. Here we study how stories shape our lives, how words weave wonders before our eyes. Here we are enamoured of love and the connections betwixt people. Here we seek daring adventures in our wild lande, delving into the unknown at every turn. But mostly, here you'll find my obsession with any number of things, like Doctor Who, the Vampire Diaries, or any number of others from the ever-shifting tide of obsessions through which I cycle. My more-used sideblog is blagueofchaos if you ever wish I posted more :) She/her, 28
