the question of free will is a common one. i think everyone has contemplated it at oen point or another. when once put on the spot to explain my own view of it, i came up with the answer: "everyhting you do is a true, genuine choice. it's just that, because of the circumstances of the universe, you'd never pick anything else than what you ended up with". which might seem like a load of paradoxical nonsense, but to simplify it, let's go with a metaphor. you get to choose between two meals, one of which contains an ingredient you really don't like. you pick the other one - not because you had no choice, but because the circumstances are that you don't like the other and would never eat it. at least that's the closest i can get to explaining it
i think that, if i were an avatar, the web might be the most likely. i think it's the only one i'd ever give myself up to voluntarily, at least. the web is interestring, because it's presented as a lot more aware than all other entities, but, i mean, is it? does it really do any more than provide power to its avatars? it's tricky, but i honestly don't think the web has any more consciousness than any other entity. maybe the ability to make it apear like it does, but no true, actual thinking
annabelle is really interesting in that case, because she's sort of a driving force in this all. hell, even her own free will can be put into question, because i don't think there's anything that really implies she's exempt from the manipulations of the web. it's hard to know whether she's a proper instigator, or just the middle man between the web and the rest of the world. she's so well spoken and eloquent that you don't get that impression, but i think that very much could be the case
Can we still be friends?
Never have I been more grateful for Philza’s borderline paranoid cautionary tendencies built from being a hardcore player. I was so worried for Chayanne but the man built him a a reinforced bunker with no entrances

I think it's Luz coming out as bi to Camila for the first time but we already saw a bi pride flag in their house before and I love to think it's just Camila starting to notice it even before and just encouraging Luz to come out or just showing her its a safe place for her
I love Camila
I wish all moms were like Camila
Friendly reminder that there’s a chance Disney leaked For The Future in the hopes that it would decrease the ratings when the episode officially came out, giving them a reason to not continue The Owl House in some way. WATCH IT ON YOUTUBE. It doesn’t matter if you watched it on TheOwlClub, watch it again. Put it on in the background, Watch and rewatch your favorite scenes. Force your friends to watch it. The overwhelmingly large number of views on Thanks To Them is what led to Disney regretting the cancellation. As of now, For The Future has 1.7 million views. Make that number higher. If we want an Eda and Raine spin-off, if we want Luz’s Journal, if we want anything after Watching And Dreaming airs, get that view number up.

People with personality disorders are not evil or subhuman. In most cases they are people who faced so much ongoing trauma and neglect during their upbringing that it damaged their development to the point of permanent disability. These are traumatized people who deserve compassion, support and resources, not further dehumanization. They are victims and survivors, not perpetrators
