The Great - 1.10 – Featuring Voltaire

i am actually insufferable once I get comfortable with someone

while i adore red white and royal blue, the fact that one last stop didn’t get NEARLY as much love and attention despite the quality of the book being just as good very much proves the point that sapphic romance is disregarded and only is represented when it is sexualized for the male gaze. thanks for coming to my ted talk and please read one last stop by casey mcquiston because it is fucking fantastic.

THE MID SEASON TRAILER ARGHFHFJFH

sundays rule number 1: DON'T THINK ABOUT YOUR LIFE

Here is the link! What an amazing idea ❤️

I’m not a perfectionist, but finding a typo or a grammatical error in my own already-published fic is like stepping on a Lego honestly

I laugh every single time I see someone saying that Selena is Dorothea. Like, did you even listen to the song?

This is so funny to me because Selena is not Dorothea nor is Taylor Miss Americana

Dorothea:

Same muse from 'Tis The Damn Season in which Taylor and Dorothea are regarded as an "old flame" aka former lovers according to Taylor's own words in the Evermore prologue

Miss Americana:

It's YOU and ME there's nothing like this, MISS AMERICANA and the HEARTBREAK PRINCE (basic grammar structure)

Both are Karlie Kloss btw. I know, a model selling makeup and magazines by being the face of the brands/covers is a very ground breaking correlation.

I don't understand why people thought that we would get a happy ending for Agathario. At least for now.

I'm glad that by making her a ghost, there is a chance to bring her back to life. Though I ship Agathario A LOT, I want to see Agatha alive and powerful. I want to see her thrive and kick some ass!

Also, this is marvel. Couples usually don't get happy endings. Think about it. Most marvel love stories end tragically or go through a lot of trials before they reach a happy ending.

And this isn't THE END for Agatha. It's the end of a chapter and the beginning of a new one. We will definitely get to see more of Rio.

Now, two last things:

I have to say that being a spirit guide to Billy could actually be quite fun. I mean, she will definitely be the most annoying ghost, but also a great mentor. It would also be interesting to see what powers she possesses as a ghost.

The fact that they keep her as a ghost means that someone could bring her back to life! I really want to see her back in her human form and powerful!! Her powers are one of my favorite things about her! I want to see her having an important role in the marvel universe. She is too powerful to not be utilized in future marvel projects!

Sorry for the rant, but I had to say this.

agatha finale rant

so I’ve been seeing a lot of people complaining about the finale of Agatha and I wanted to give my two cents on their main points: 

1. “they used agatha’s show as a way to promote a man!!” well yes! that’s how marvel tv works im afraid. or any tv, really. wandavision was used to introduce agatha and monica, which led to their projects in the mcu (aaa, marvels). agatha introduced billy, leading to his future in visionquest or his solo series, which will introduce tommy and vision, which will lead to children’s crusade to reintroduce wanda. this is common for any tv show, but especially a big, connected franchise like marvel. i find it so concerning that even after all the promotion that showed us billy and agatha as co-leads, people were STILL shocked when the finale sets up a future story centered around him. like i hate to break it to yall but marvel wants money. and more shows means more money.

2. “they killed off a lesbian woman and not the gay man!” first of all, in the comics, agatha is a spirit guide for the scarlet witch. this form is her most comic accurate yet. also, did yall really think that was an unfair ending? or an ending PERIOD? all her death made me think of was the possibilities for the future with both billy AND rio. and again; rio was promoted as the ‘antagonist’ to agatha since the beginning. i don’t know how people went into this excepting a happily ever after for these two. they were always depicted as tragic lovers, and i honestly think the kiss of death was beautiful and poetic. i also don’t think this is the last we’re seeing of rio. and, as a side note, homophobia is still not okay! it doesn’t matter if you’re also gay; lesbians can be homophobic towards gay men, and gay men can be lesbophobic towards lesbians. and i’ve seen wayyyy too much of both in this fanbase. you can criticize characters and critique actors without bringing up their sexuality. we have enough incel homophobes doing that for us

3. if you’re still complaining about wanda not coming back i have no hope for you

4. this show, since day ZERO, was promoted as a show with billy and agatha as coleads. while i wish we had more backstory for how agatha and rio met, the salem flashbacks involving nicholas, the road scheme, and the song were much more important to the show. the parallels between nicky and billy were explored throughout the season a lot more than agatha and rios story (whether or not you like it, it’s still true (i personally wish we had a bit more on how they met 😭))

5. sending hate to actors about things their characters did is STILL not okay! and never will be!

6. this might be a hot take but if you’re only watching a show for a ship and don’t care about the story at all your opinion is irrelevant to me. like people who started watching after it was revealed in the show that agatha and rio were lovers (because, correct me if i’m wrong, this was never revealed before the episodes dropped) have no right to be upset when the show focuses on other things. and this is coming from a MASSIVE fan of agathario. and a lesbian. i loved the fact that i was watching characters who just happened to be lesbians have their own story. yes, i wish there was more agathario in the flashbacks. but i’m really not upset at all by what we got. and don’t get me wrong, people have every right to be disappointed, but they don’t have the right to hate on the creators and actors of the show. that’s not cool.

this is way longer than i thought it was gonna be 😭😭 hope everyone enjoyed the finale

i love taylor so much because lover ends with declaring that she wants to focus on joy and not heartbreak. then she writes folklore and evermore, two albums about heartbreak. then she ends evermore with declaring that she’s learned when it’s time to move on and that she’s still survived with herself intact, and she’s leaving the past behind. then she writes midnights, an album about going back in time and refusing to move on from the past. it ends with declaring that the lunch tables of her past don’t matter anymore because she’s in control of her relationship and her life. then she writes the tortured poets department (including the anthology here), an album about how she lost complete control of everything and maybe never had it to begin with. it ends with declaring that these stories aren’t hers to process anymore, and she releases them in order to find her freedom.

can’t wait to see how ts12 fits into this
