Paolo e Virginia (1844) - Alessandro Puttinati
my biggest red flag is that im a lesbian who likes boobs and whenever im watching a show with obvious fanservice and all the girls have their massive tits hanging out of their bras being held together by string, my first reaction isnt to go "god im so tired of all this oversexualization of women". i go WOOOOO BOOBIES !!!!!!!!!
A sudden Guardians of the Galaxy crossover because I think this scene suits them
thinking about the disney princess debate again and it’s kind of messing me up because i’m thinking. cinderella is wish fulfillment for every abused person. cinderella is being hopeful about your situation by thinking ‘what if there was this girl who was just like me and was trying her best but nobody cared and even took advantage of her trying her best and mistreated her because they could. what if someone helped her get out, what if someone saw her and noticed her and fell in love with her, someone who wouldn’t mistreat her and would show her the kindness everyone deserves, what if she could get out of her abusive home without being haunted or harassed the rest of her life over it.’ it’s a happy ending most people don’t get. it’s imagining that everything goes right, that everything goes the way it should be. i don’t call this a coping mechanism, i call this a glory, i call this a testament to the strength and goodness in people that when they suffer cruelty they make up a story where that doesn’t happen and people are good. it’s not demeaning. it’s empowering.
“But just because you’re strong and resilient doesn’t mean you never need someone to be there for you, to take care of you.”

Sometimes you meet someone, and it’s so clear so immediately that the two of you, on some level, belong together. As lovers, or as friends, or as family, or as something entirely different. You just work, whether you’re in love or creating things together or foxhole buddies or partners in crime. It’s so clear, right off the bat, that this is what you’re supposed to be doing, that this is what you’re for. You meet these people throughout your life, out of nowhere, under the strangest of circumstances, and they help you make a life. I don’t know if that makes me believe in coincidence, or fate, or sheer blind luck, but. It definitely makes me believe in something.
