OK Tumblr Geriatric Ward, Let’s Talk About Your Posture-

you read stuff on wattpad for shit and giggles where most of the fics there are reader-inserted ones written in 1st person pov where y/n is a barely legal white girl with blonde hair and blue “orbs” who’s so smol and fragile that she’s dependent entirely on this morally questionable guy who’s killing people for a living but for some reason happens to have a soft spot for her.

you read real actual literature on archive of our own where it’s two middle aged men, who are each other’s sworn enemies, with tragic past, trauma and strong homoerotic tension. and while they’ve made each other bleed, killed each other’s friends and loved ones out of jealousy / possessiveness, lied and betrayed and manipulated, the rawness, depth, complexity and slow burn will keep you up all night, haunt you during your day and possibly change your life forever. and also the sex isn’t just smut. the sex is poetry that puts Shakespeare to shame

something something about the difference between helena saying "you loved ballroom dancing. i know you did. you took home every trophy," to which eddie responds "i did love it. until you and dad sucked out all the fun and made it all about trophies"

versus how buck is all proud and loving and gushing when he talks about eddie and the tire and "eddie wouldn't do anything illegal. eddie has a silver star"

i cant quite explain it but the way buck is proud of eddie is just different.

episodes that i think every tv show should have:

timeloop

whodunit

musical

beach trip

random genre change (especially if it's to a noir detective thing)

one where they get randomly meta and fourth wall breaky but then never acknowledge it again

one where something happened but we as the audience don't actually get to see how it happened and only see it through the unreliable narrated flashbacks as recollected by the characters

What if you were GAY and you played SOCCER in high school and your team made it to NATIONALS but your plane CRASHED in the middle of the CANADIAN WILDERNESS and you were there for NINETEEN MONTHS and during that time you started DATING an INSANE girl who lost her baby and her BEST FRIEND who she had feelings for and that you guys CANNIBALIZED along with OTHER PEOPLE and then you GOT SHOT WITH AN ARROW and became close a FROG SCIENTIST who had a DAUGHTER and asked you to take a TAPE to give it to her and then YOU GUYS KILLED her and then were RESCUED but after being back you decided to FAKE your death and CHANGE YOUR NAME and then you married the DAUGHTER of the WOMAN YOU KILLED and had a CHILD with her and you are trying to CHILL AND BE NORMAL DESPITE HOW FUCKED UP THAT IS but you still have that incriminating TAPE and you don't give it to your wife and it's HAUNTING you so of ALL Yellowjackets you send it to your ex with a NOTE and her daughter doesn't give it to her and now your CRAZY EX drove all the way to VIRGINIA and she's in your house BITING YOU AND MAKING YOU EAT YOUR OWN FLESH and you don't even have YOUR HAT ON

it really does come down to the fact that people (both the audience and the characters in the show) are horrified with and angry at shauna for who she’s had to become because no one else would. when they caught their first animal back in s1, i know everyone breathed a sigh of relief when shauna volunteered to bleed the deer. and then they just assumed, probably without asking her, that the same would be done when it came time to bleed a 14 year old boy. she had the most gruesome and heartbreaking job just thrust upon her and by the time she realized the reality of what was expected of her, everyone had already turned to face the other way.

and now for the first time, she’s taken a second to look around and see how everyone views her and decided to become exactly who it is they’ve seen her as since she skinned that first deer. a ruthless, cruel, cold-blooded killer that doesn’t stop to think before committing an act of violence because, isn’t this who you all needed her to be?

Glinda really had an entire musical number expounding on the theme of "success in life is not about being highly qualified or even competent, but manipulating people's superficial perception of you." and then she went into POLITICS. truly the #girlboss representation the world has earned
