brennan and ally's friendship is so special to me, he's like a scientist trying to delve into their mind and find out what makes them tick. this clip and also "you know what i like about you brennan?" "what's that" "we're always fighting the church, and that means a lot to me" are two of my favorite of their interactions. it's like brennan's chaos just balances out and becomes milder as it encounters ally's wildly different, more unorganized chaos
Haha it's true! He's such a good friend that he immediately switches from chaos mode to: i really wanna understand whatever the heck you're saying right now
The implication being that Ally themselves didn’t have the thought of speaking these words, but they were instead a vessel for this message to be spoken such that they could hear it.

Today I learned that the top of an hourglass figure is intended to be the chest and not the shoulders. As a lifelong woman and owner of a (granted, not large) chest, I may be a moron.
What are guitar hips I cannot even begin to infer a semi correct answer in my head and I do play guitar. I need to know so I can tell how masculine fertile I am.
@@artuu9846 small but square shoulders, narrow waist round hips and thighs. Hourglass figure, but with a bit more going on south of the border. Basically a guitar shape. At least that's what comes to mind for me. Pair that with some developed shoulders and you got a look that is both masculine, and suggests the voluptuousness that is associated with fecundity. Not sure that exactly matches Alley's vision or that "masculine fertile" is how I'd put it, but I get the imagery. To me linebacker shoulders and guitar hips would be Amazonian. But if you focus more on the shoulders and less on, say the bust or developed chest muscles, and still focused on the glutes, hips, thighs, maybe that would be the look Alley is describing, and it wouldn't be far off.
Ally Beardsley is genuinely one of the funniest people on the planet. I just finished Starstruck Odyssey this week and they consistently had some of the best “It’s like if….” moments across the board, and now this scene is cracking me the hell up. Absolute comedy genius.
Haha yes, the best part is Brennan roasting them for saying it like Masculine Fertile™ is a known thing, and not something they fully coined then and there
ENCYCLOPEDIA (Medium: Success) - My understanding is that “submissive and breedable” was a mainstay of pregnancy kink search terms that got tongue-in-cheek reclaimed and then blew up out of context as a copypasta meme. Usually it’s used for cis men as a semi-ironic twist on Twitter affirmations about normalizing non-heteronormative gender roles (c.f. “normalize platonically calling your bros submissive and breedable,” contra less absurd affirmations like “normalize platonically telling your bros you love them”). It kinda morphed into a funnier way of saying “hot.” But I’m sure plenty of subby dudes actually quite like being called these things in the right contexts.
as a nonbinary person who wants to be perceived as masc but also respects my afab bodily, "masculine fertile" is like taking my feelings and putting them into words
They’re not, but they’re frequently not found together. They said “respecting my AFAB body,” not just “respecting my body.” As in, many people who are AFAB are either cis women or trans men, in which case these two conditions do not occur together. Cis women are fine with being AFAB but do NOT generally wish to be perceived as masc. Some cis women are butch and that’s a notable exception, but arguably they’re also going for “masculine fertile” despite not being trans. Trans men obviously want to be perceived as masc and ALSO they do not try to hold onto an AFAB birth gender or necessarily want their bodies to stay medically the same in any way. So it’s not the most common combination in the world to be somewhat okay with externally female biology and a birth assignment of “you are girl” but still not want to be perceived as femme at all. That’s fairly uncommon among both trans and cis people.
This went on such a journey that I was genuinely surprised when "Masculine Fertile" was finally said (also I think Idris Elba is pretty Masculine Fertile, like he's got that vibe, ya know )
Yes, while it did originate in the 1933 film Duck Soup, Harpo also reprised his role in the mirror scene playing opposite Lucille Ball in a 1955 episode of I Love Lucy. Also, it was Harpo Marx not Chico Marx oh my GOD >:(

Are people really equating body type with gender identity? Do... Do they know that those things are unrelated. Ones your physical appearance, ones how your biological sex interacts with the function of society.
Your physical appearance definitely informs your personal experience of gender expression. Buff dude vs skinny dude vs heavy dude are three drastically different experiences of masculinity
@@hem9483 No they're not. That's completely unrelated to masculinity. Not that it matters because masculinity and femininity have absolutely no purpose in our modern society. They are expressions of one's biological sex, and that has little to do with how society functions at the moment.
@@alexanderchippel That doesn't change the fact some body features are considered masculine or feminine. Pieces of cloth don't have inherent value but in many countries you can exchange that for genuinely valuable stuff like food and water which are needed for biological functions

brennan is a being of organized chaos and so he immediately has to organize the chaos created by ally
"All of that was said out of my mouth to me in the mirror" is such a needlessly hilarious way of saying "I said it to myself."

the ferocity of Brennan’s laugh visibly scaring his cat at the very end though
not a single person here is normal, they are all freaks, and i love them all

Honestly I don't know what I am or what I want to be but I do know that I want to figure it out like Ally clearly has here.
It just proves how transcendent RPGs can be when it lives rent-free in our minds forever afterwards.
It's so good to see Katie again! And I love that they all are so funny just being themselves.

The mirror work reference that Reeva is talking about actually goes back to a stage bit that was pretty common in vaudeville.
Masculine fertile meaning that you could be a quarterbacker but you could also give birth if needed
You've seen quarterback, you've seen quarterbacker; now for a limited time only, you can be the quarterbackest!

They're both wrong. That was _Harpo._
"Virile"
The polar opposite of what has become known as "Submissive and Breedable".
see yeah i ALSO thought mirror work was an acting exercise, if not in front of a mirror, then one where you and a partner imitate each other
I always saw Lars as a camp gay German in Arnold Schwarzenegger's body.
Proud of you. 💙

i had to google like 4 things during this clip

both, i think!
