They Really Had No Shame In Doing Chat Noir Dirty During That One-on-one Fight With Alya No Fucking Shame

they really had no shame in doing chat noir dirty during that one-on-one fight with alya… no fucking shame…

This is gonna live in my head rent free what the FUCK

the fact that dentists and doctors are kept in separate fields of study is super concerning because doctors being kept entirely in the dark about an entire area of the human body is costing people their lives. my dentist was able to tell me my jaw was shattered on one side. my doctors, some of which are top of their field specialists in pain disorders, all said they did not deal with teeth area issues and glossed over it as if having 5.5 teeth held up via calcium deposit and bone shrapnel isn't unhealthy. one of them is literally an ear nose and throat specialist. come on

I can’t be the only one to find this shot sad, rather than romantic? I don’t Adrien is at the ‘in love’ stage. He loves ladybug deeply, but it’s not purely romantic. She is his whole world, poor boy. And things keep changing, it’s hard to figure out your own place in the world, independent of everyone else! Especially when you are used to the loss of the people you love. He still looks terribly sad and vulnerable here, minimally comforted…

Our system is broken.  It is cruel.  It is dehumanizing, degrading, and it’s vile nature is so, so unnecessary.

We need universal healthcare today in America.  We needed it 40 years ago.  It’s cheaper, it’s simpler, it’s more efficient, it’s more effective and it is so, so, so much less cruel than what we have.

Universal Healthcare Cost in America would be cheaper by trillions of dollars

The US has worse life expectancies than socialized healthcare countries

We have worse generalized healthcare results

We have the most expensive care

Our system is so cruel and unique that doctors from other countries literally can’t believe what happens here

I can’t tell you where or how to activate to help solve this.  There are politicians, groups, and activists pushing for this in so many ways.  I can tell you when, though.

Now.

May I Whine for a Minute?

So, Hack-san was a fairly enjoyable episode for the most part.

Two parts in particular that I really liked are this adorable little DJ WiFi smooch and the fact that Marinette specifically told Alya to make sure that she laughs at Chat Noir’s jokes because it makes him happy. ^.^ Look at Marinette worrying about her partner’s happiness.

I feel a little cheated, though. The scene where Ladybug and Chat Noir talked about things was way too short. I feel like they didn’t really talk and that this big, plot-relevant thing was squished into thirty seconds at the end of the episode. ^.^;

I guess this is what fanfiction is for? I’m glad that Marinette did talk to him, though, even if Alya had to prompt her to do it. The look on Marinette’s face tells me that talking to Chat Noir wasn’t even on her radar. It just goes to show how overwhelmed she still is that she doesn’t have the bandwidth to consider how her actions are affecting Chat.

By the way, he’s totally lying when he says that he’s not sad about her revealing her identity to someone. He may not realize it, but he’s definitely sad that it’s not him she’s relying on and trusting. I think he’s just more sad about his realization that he could lose her, so that’s what’s at the forefront of his mind. It’s a lot to unpack, and he’s not nearly done processing.

I would also like to take a minute to hold up this episode as an example for the people who always bug me about my characterization of Adrien as getting sad and turning in on himself instead of getting angry and blowing up at others. I don’t know why people want me to write angry Adrien, but it just doesn’t fit my understanding of his character to write him as getting angry all the time. In canon, we usually see him getting frustrated but then turning that in on himself and wondering what he’s done wrong or why he isn’t good enough. Years of emotional abuse in his home life have taught him not to express anger but to internalize those feelings.

On a lighter note, I love the soft Lady Noir moment here. ^w^

Also, the reflection of her in his eyes is lovely. I really like this shot.
