I think Danny Devito would be great as the voice of Spider-Ham though!
Husband and I have a fun game called “Against Type” where we speculate on either Improbable Roles for an actor or Improbable Actors for a role. The results frequently make for better movies than the original casting. Some of the best combinations so far:
Betty White as James Bond (With Daniel Craig as her Bond Girl)
Danny Devito as Spiderman
Arnold Schwaznegger as Any Teletubbie
Julie Andrews as Batman
Gilbert Gottfried as The Phantom Of The Opera
Lucy Liu as freakin’ anybody. Seriously, any role I’ve tried to imagine her in I can only imagine her fucking killing it. Captain America. Mary Poppins. Hannibal Lecter. Doc Brown. Elizabeth Bennet. Darth Vader. She’d be awesome.
Samuel L. Jackson as Dolores Umbridge
Taika Watiti and Lin Manuel Miranda as Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson (the musical)
Some notes from the game:
It’s harder to do this with actresses than actors because they tend to be more versatile.
Adding “The Musical” or “Directed by Mel Brooks” to any serious movies improves it by 500%
Christopher Walken is equally awesome/terrible at anything you put him in
As I librarian, I love the idea of the queer community being more like a library than an exclusive club. Huge thanks to FYA for choosing libraries as examples of open, welcoming, inclusive places!
Any aspec feeling down because of the posts telling not to go to pride, I've seen plenty of posts banning enbies, trans people, pans, bis and in one particularly baffling case, lesbians from attending. With literally the only group escaping these posts being cis gay men, I think it's safe to say they're rubbish. Gatekeepers can have their own super exclusive pride in some dark cave with rest of the council of evildoers.
I told my friend today that I think people see the queer community as this exclusive club and you must dress and appear “gay enough” to be allowed in, when I think the queer community should be more akin to a library that can host events. Because the exclusion of any dampers the pride I feel down until I don’t want pride symbols and colors everywhere because I don’t want to think about the heartbreak we do to each other 24/7.
Leafy sea dragon mermaid! [swoon] (Ok, they’re all cool, but I have a soft spot for leafy sea dragons.)
5/15 mermaid design challenge i made for myself (also happens to be during #mermay)

Vote to queer the narrative. Vote out of spite. Vote like your life depends on it, because that's true for some of us.
Hey, everyone! You want to pull the ultimate prank against the Republican party? I mean this would be EPIC!
On November 5, 2024, all 50 million US citizens between 18 and 30 need to take to the streets and demonstrate against the erosion of civil rights for women, BIPOC, disabled, LBGTIAA+, and transgendered people. Take to the streets...and march right down to your polling station and vote! (Or, you know, early vote.)
This would be the flash mob to beat all flash mobs. The Republicans would never see you coming, because their whole strategy depends on keeping you depressed and disengaged.
Don't like the direction the Democrats are going? Take a page out of the Tea Party's book--they changed the direction of the Republican party by voting for it, and now they own it. Vote Democrat and nudge it leftward this election--then keep nudging it until you can take the wheel. Because the alternative is a hard right turn by the Republicans.
Not only would this be a lifesaver for countless people who are not "White male Christian Conservative Americans", it would also be funny as hell. Want to see Trump have a meltdown on international television? Want to see pollsters and political pundits say "What the fuck?!" Want to see the newspapers suddenly flock to gay nightclubs and college campuses to interview "average voters" instead of rural diners?
Squee! I’m a Tiny Water Dragon. It’s very appropriate both for me and for my sister who is in the same date range. (She might have preferred Jack Ass or Safari Horse though.)
I’m a Safari Horse! What are you?
I think most of the people following me know me well enough to know that I’d be fine with questions, but I’ll reblog just in case.
I feel like a lot of people don’t want to ask questions they have about gender/sexuality to LGBT people because they don’t want to offend them because we talk about cishet people asking stupid or intrusive questions a lot
But actually when you’re questioning it’s really helpful to be able to ask some ‘stupid’ questions although you’re too afraid to
So can y'all LGBTQIA+ people reblog this if you’re totally fine with people asking questions about your gender/sexuality, as long as they do so respectfully
Reblogging, with love to my sweeties!
Reblog if you’re polyamorous/open to polyamory in the future/in a polycule or open to one/interested in polyamory I want to see how many of us there are
And like if you think polyamory is okay, can be healthy, and doesn’t “go against human nature”
If you haven’t read Tab’s Minority Monsters comics, I highly recommend them! I’m about to succumb to the added temptation of the ace succubus charm and buy the print copy for myself. (I’m pretty sure I can find someone who would like a charm if I win the giveaway, too.)

I love InspiroBot!
someone created a random generator that creates randomized inspirational quotes overlaid on random images in a soothing fashion and each and every image is comic gold
it’s pretty much the best thing ever and here are some of my favorites so far
so good
I’m getting this one made into a motivational poster for my home office
PLEASE GO MAKE SOME OF YOUR OWN RIGHT NOW
I’m convinced that this is Antler Guy and Neighbor Steve’s favorite show. They never miss an episode and spend the entire last season with a box of tissues on the couch between them.
An old and homely grandmother accidentally summons a demon. She mistakes him for her gothic-phase teenage grandson and takes care of him. The demon decides to stay at his new home.
