so i’m riding the elevator up to my apartment when the emergency phone in the elevator starts ringing 

and i just stand there for a second because this thing is like thirty years old and has never rung or even been used from what i know

but eventually i answer it thinking maybe something’s wrong with the elevator?? it’s an emergency phone it’s probably an emergency??? i dunno

except i shit you not it’s a telemarketer 

a telemarketer that’s as confused as i am when i finally interrupt him mid-spiel to inform him he has the wrong number and then interrupt him again to explain further that “uh, no, seriously, this is an elevator phone. i’m standing in an elevator. talking to you. on the emergency phone. i really think you got the wrong number”

“oh,” says telemarketer guy.

“yeah,” i say.

there’s some mutually-confused silence.

“so, this is my stop,” i say. “i gotta go.”

“oh,” says telemarketer guy.

“good luck,” i add, because telemarketer guy seems like he’s having an existential crisis. and then i hang up on him, because he’s having an existential crisis and won’t actually end the call, and because again i’m talking on an elevator emergency phone and, you know, this is my stop, i gotta go.

i’m just a big fan of the tone in which the ending was told

murdershegoat:

leo dicaprio was nominated five times in twenty two years

amy adams was nominated five times in eight years. 

it took her less than half the time it took him to get the same number of nominations.

her performances are poignant, subtle, always beautifully delivered. 

the fact she wasn’t even nominated for arrival is an absolute atrocity.

this is the hill on which i die.

i’ve lost 4 followers over this and gotten a few asks which is equal parts a relief and super distressing so let me just repeat: 

if you see a parent/child relationship between a 40-something year old man and an Actual Literal Child and decide that it would be More Exciting For You Personally if they were in a romantic/sexual relationship, please block and unfollow me! if you write porn featuring a 40-something year old man and the Actual Child he is a father figure to, please block and unfollow me! If you ship mcu peter parker and tony stark please block and unfollow me. 

me asking for you to keep this kind of thing away from me is not me telling you that you deserve to die, or condemning mentally ill people to hell for their Fictional Preferences. It’s me thinking that the concept of parental figures wanting to have sex with the minors in their care (regardless of whether or not they act on those desires) is extremely upsetting on multiple levels. I don’t want to come into contact with people who think that it’s fun and cute and who refuse to take another look at why this kind of thing could possibly be Really Upsetting to a lot of people. I don’t care if you quickly googled the age of consent and decided that that was enough for you. thank you goodbye
