This was the moment where i fell in love with them btw
this was their second episode btw bonus:
Do you…
…sometimes…
…think about how…
…Maddie was an only child…
…for 3 minutes and 17 seconds?
[because I do think about this often 🫠🫠🫠]
I think is criminal how i haven't seen one video edit of Agatha Harkness to that song that goes "I fucked the reaper cause i knew my time was coming, can't you see? I was either gonna die at twelve or ninety-fucking-three"
Especially when the chorus looks like that:
There's been some discourse going around that tries to connect Neil Gaiman writing about problematic things and him being awful to mean that everyone who writes that kind of thing is also awful or should be placed under suspicion.
Correlation is not causation. You could just as easily blame the fact that he wrote about mythology and fairytales. It has the same amount of weight as blaming dark subjects.
The truth is, there have been tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of authors who write/have written about dark/problematic/complicated subjects who have never hurt a soul and who never will.
Now, you could say people who have endured trauma and abuse are more likely to write about dark subjects. I'm not positive but I think this bears out in statistics. But again, the vast majority of people who have suffered abuse and whose past abuse informs their writing do NOT go on to perpetuate that cycle of violence.
I know we all wish that predators were easy to spot. But if they were, they wouldn't be predators. They'd be criminals operating in broad daylight.
The disturbing fact is that truly bad people who operate for a long time are incredibly hard to spot. They survive by manipulating those around them into providing cover for them and carefully craft personas to make it difficult to accuse them of wrongdoing. They will also use fame and money as a shield and choose victims with the least ability to fight back.
Using what happened in your crusade against dark topics and your push for censorship in fiction is incredibly disrespectful to the victims and risks making writers part of a witch hunt.
It also makes it harder to spot actual predators because it perpetuates the idea that these people have easy tells. They do not. That's what makes them monsters.
In retrospect, can we pick out certain themes in his work that aligns with the allegations against him and hints at who he really was? Yes, but hindsight is 20/20. Someone else could have written about the same subjects and been a saint of a human being.
When Bob says something like “the highs are so high but when it’s low……” I had tears in my eyes. One sentence, that I myself have said so many times but hearing it caught me so off-guard.
If anyone finds the movie’s ending stupid, all I can say is this: sometimes you just need enough people to care. You just need someone to force their presence in your life. You need to hear, over and over again, that you are enough - not because you’re not listening the first time someone says it, but because your own voices are much louder and much more recurrent. It’s someone bringing you back to a consciousness that helps you realise you’re not as worthless as you actually feel… as useless. And sometimes, having that helps so much that it will get me through the day without a black silence echoing all around me. And that’s what Thunderbolts does. That’s why it actually matters beyond being in the MCU and being a movie.
I was getting pretty fed up with links and generators with very general and overused weapons and superpowers and what have you for characters so:
Here is a page for premodern weapons, broken down into a ton of subcategories, with the weapon’s region of origin.
Here is a page of medieval weapons.
Here is a page of just about every conceived superpower.
Here is a page for legendary creatures and their regions of origin.
Here are some gemstones.
Here is a bunch of Greek legends, including monsters, gods, nymphs, heroes, and so on.
Here is a website with a ton of (legally attained, don’t worry) information about the black market.
Here is a website with information about forensic science and cases of death. Discretion advised.
Here is every religion in the world.
Here is every language in the world.
Here are methods of torture. Discretion advised.
Here are descriptions of the various methods used for the death penalty. Discretion advised.
Here are poisonous plants.
Here are plants in general.
Feel free to add more to this!
Don't come in my blog, where i said i liked someone, just to send me anons about how you hate her.
IDC about it, i've already seem all the hate she gets and it didn't change my opinion on her. Your anon ask is just gonna get deleted.
(NOTE: I did not even post about her, you are getting mad at a sentence in the middle of other post. Don't like my opinios? The block button is free)
There's one thing about Jason Todd that just gets to me. It's poetic, it's ironic, it's painful, it's mildly infuriating, and it's kind of hilarious. To me at least.
So. You know Jays? Like, the type of bird? These fancy fuckers?
Also these
Yeah, Jays. Jaybirds. [insert Roy Harper joke here]
Let me tell you a funky thing about jays.
Their scientific classification, do you know what family they're in?
Fucking Corvidae. JAYS ARE CORVIDS. Y'know, like ravens and crows and magpies. The kinds of birds frequently associated with intelligence, wisdom, and DEATH. The kinds of birds known for STEALING SHIT and HOLDING GRUDGES.
And the fact that NONE OF THIS WAS INTENDED IN JASON'S CHARACTER? I can't handle it. And my body can never decide if it wants to scream or laugh or cry when I think about it so I'm just sitting here vibrating over it.
Looks like the One Tree Hill sequel series is set to start filming in Los Angeles on November 3rd, 2025. The Ackles' are on board to executive produce, with Danneel in talks to reprise her role as Rachel Gatina (x)
Is it petty? Yes it is but a really hate that a series about "Greek Gods and mythology" would choose to use a story written by a Roman who wrote so he could defame the two greek gods.
In the actual greek myth Medusa and her sisters were born that way and i really don't see why changed from the original (or why from all of the tales to use choose the roman one)
Medusa was always a symbol of protection already and i really don't see a need to try to paint her as a survivor of abuse bc now you have a bunch of people misinterpreting what her myth was actually supposed to be and now they will have to change or at least expand more on Sally's relantionship with Poseidon and they will have to choose between putting her in two abusive situations or just ignore "Medua's story" (what will make it worse in my opinion)
I do love the show but i don't think that a season 16 should be made, i know the finale didn't made a lot of people happy (for one reason or another) but it was very circular and definitive. But i would like the universe to continue beyond their bad score with spin-offs.
If it was up to me i would go back to the themes of "you can't scape The hunting life no matter how much you try" they had for Mary and early seasons Sam but using Dean Jr as a lecagy character
Proshipper, Multishipper, don't give a fuck as long as my fav is being loved-shipper
