Tom Hiddleston, books, Marvel, cute animals, food, Pokémon, Sailor Moon, history, current events(politics, what's going on in the world, that kind of stuff), among other things…
no offens but people being overworked to death in industries like animation and making video games is a huge issue… like holy shit i’d prefer my favorite anime being delayed or a video game’s release being a bit late if it means people don’t suffer under intense conditions and stress
“Crunch culture” is not some immutable fact of those industries. It’s an indictment of the shitty project management skills demonstrated by those in charge. “Crunch culture” means you, as a manager, done fucked up and shouldn’t be in charge of a bowl of ornamental fruit, much less other human beings doing work on things.
im gonna go ahead and add on here that this culture being normalized by higher ed institutions in undergrad and grad school, especially in one-year masters programs, is just as toxic and dangerous, if not moreso because theyre paying for the privilege of making themselves sick.
this is a fantastic concept, i was tempted to write a proper fic
When you thought of a bakery, you envisioned a cute, pastel coloured building that oozed cheer.
Loki’s Sinister Treats was a black building and the only colour was the emerald green paint that spelt the bakery’s name.
Your best friend had recommended the place to you, stating that every baked good inside was to die for.
Glancing at the bakery you couldn’t help but wonder if she meant that literally.
However a pleasant surprise awaited you behind the front door.
Inside, everything was brightly lit and a mix of white, green, and gold. Classical music played through the speakers and the aroma of numerous treats had your stomach growling.
Never judge a book by its cover, you had mused to yourself, a phrase you kept in mind when you were served by the owner himself, the name Loki sown in gold thread on his green apron.
The man was tall and while muscled, had a slimness to him. His black hair was tied in a bun at the nape of his neck, a few loose strands tucked behind his ears. He wore black pants and a black, long sleeved shirt, the sleeves pushed up and covered in flour. A frown of sorts sat on his face during your entire interaction.
But, the food you brought had been to die for.
You became a regular quickly, stopping in every afternoon on your way home from work.
You discovered through watching Loki serve others, that he only seemed to have the one facial expression, making you wonder how a man who looked so… sour, made such sweet things.
However, one afternoon would change your perception on Loki.
Your day had been shit, and it was obvious. Looking like a tired mess, your eyes had a redness around them that suggested tears would soon be falling.
Standing at the counter, you had ordered one of your favourite treats in a monotone voice, dreaming of a hot shower, crap tv shows and bed.
You paid no mention to the bigger than usual bag you were gifted, just paid and left.
Arriving home, and after showering, you went to pull out your treat and was stunned.
Though you had ordered one thing, six sat in the bag, all different – a mixture of your favourites – accompanied by a note.
Hopefully this helps cheer you up, we should leave the frowning to me.
A giggle had slipped past your lips, and for the first time that day, you felt happy.
The next afternoon you waltzed up to the counter with a beaming smile.
For the first time, Loki’s lips moved from their straight line to form a small smile.
‘Feeling better love?’ the nickname made your stomach twist.
‘Thanks to you and your amazing baking skills I am.’
Loki huffed a laugh, but you swear a touch of red showed in his cheeks.
‘I never did catch your name.’ his smile changed into a smirk – one that screamed mischief.
Something told you your life was about to get a whole lot more interesting.
People need to realize that there’s a difference between straight people and Straight People™

Straight Person™: No homo, but your haircut looks good on you.

Just like how there are white people who are gay and then there are the White Gays
White people who are gay: “I’m gay.”
White Gays: “I can’t believe I got accused of racism after calling that person a racial slur! I mean, I know what racism looks like because I’ve been discriminated for my sexuality. How is me being racist even possible? I’M GAY!”
