is there anyone in Gotham City who DOESN’T have daddy issues ?
STIMMING ISNT ENOUGH I NEED TO KILL
Okay but my favorite part about OP’s claim is the fact that somehow we all collectively decided to just shorten and bastardize the Esteemed Bard’s name.
It’s only a matter of time before Will-I-Was Snakesgear turns into the sonnet-writing version of Bickerbrine Cummersnitch
Okay hear me out!
What if, what if I say Willy Shakes has established the norm that every disaster bisexual icon would have:
1. A short fun fling with a woman of colour.
2. A longstanding intense romantic love affair with a white boy.
no but wait listen– THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON TILL TODAY. IN MAINSTREAM POP CULTURE.
Exhibit A:
Exhibit B:
...
I hereby rest my case.
Anybody who even dares to oppose, argue with the fvcking wall.
it's not always a case of "i could fix him" but sometimes, "I will fix him"
It’s easier to think of someone as “lazy” than to face the fact that school costs too much, that better jobs are inaccessible, that childcare is unaffordable, that people are forced to work so hard for so little that there’s no way they could have enough energy to attempt schooling or finding better work, and that what we give to people who can’t work is insufficient to the point of being shameful. I could say that calling people lazy is, in itself, lazy, but it’s not just an intellectual shortcut. It’s a defense mechanism.
nick carroway, noted heterosexual, meets a guy for the first time and immediately describes him as:
He smiled understandingly—much more than understandingly. It was one of those rare smiles with a quality of eternal reassurance in it, that you may come across four or five times in life. It faced—or seemed to face—the whole eternal world for an instant, and then concentrated on you with an irresistible prejudice in your favour. It understood you just so far as you wanted to be understood, believed in you as you would like to believe in yourself, and assured you that it had precisely the impression of you that, at your best, you hoped to convey.
the least gay thing about the great gatsby is the implied gay sex scene
all of this. I think it could’ve been done well without putting down Azula, and give some nuance and humanity to the royal family. The way it was done made no sense. Sadly, the more you think on the logic, the less sense it makes lol
i don't think ursa started a new family because she hated azula, i think she wanted to forget her past. with ozai being as controlling as he is, ursa never thought she’d see azula and zuko again. however, the comics portrayed it awfully
I’m actually so pissed about season four of The Umbrella Academy, like it was kinda atrocious. Was the whole different dimension train thing cool? Yes. Was sober Klaus one of my favorite things ever? Yes. Was there genuinely so much more potential for the cult thing? Yes!
But over all there were massive plot holes and aspects about characters that seemed to have been completely forgotten. It almost feels like when a kid has four pages of an easy left and after trying to hard and too long they just give up and make chat gpt take over the rest.
It felt like the makers of the show felt like they just needed to get things over with so instead of attempting a satisfying ending we got half assed “And then they all died 🫤 …. But everything else was a-ok! 🙃”
And from a viewer standpoint that is a very frustrating thing, especially because in seasons prior we got to see these characters actually adapt and grow around each other like any other good show. They learned from their mistakes and achieved new abilities. This season however I feel like by episode 3 or 4 they all just reverted into half baked stereotypes of their actual personalities.
Sorry, I’m rambling. Point is, characters and their quirks are extremely important to me they are to everyone, they make the story happen. So to see them dissolve into weaker distorted versions of themselves it makes me sad.
I dont know if anyone caught this and I really hope people see this but I have come to a realization:
"Solas" in Dalish quite literally translates to pride, further more there are common phrases within the Dalish language that speak of pride ruining everything and blah blah blah here's my source.
What I find funny is that Fen'Harel/Solas shows up and is like "YEaH iTs ME, YOuRE LocaL ELVen ApOSTAte PrIDe" and if your playing a Dalish inky they don't question it or mention it, it's even funnier if your a Dalish Mage because then you're the First of your clan and you're supposed to know this shit. Like they're literally like "Suspicious amount of Fade knowledge, weird ass name, able to drag me into the Fade... Yeah isn't shady at all lemme continue to trust this guy."
Furthermore, Solas' fear is dying alone and the Dalish sayings are quite literally "Dirth ma, harellan. Ma banal enasalin. Mar solas ena mar din." Which roughly means: "Your pride is responsible for everything that has gone wrong; you will die alone." And there's another one thats: "Dirth ma banal. Mar solas ena mar din" which means "You have learned nothing. Your pride be your downfall." The wiki also says that these are common Dalish phrases so...
This likely means that Solas is probably super self aware and we, the fandom, can take this a bajillion ways. One way is that past Fen'Harel was often told that he was prideful and that it would lead to his misfortune and so in DAI he brands himself by his shortcoming to stick it in the faces of his fellow mages but fast forward to DAD, pride will be Solas' downfall and the DAD protagonist will leave him to die alone and pondering what would of happened if he wasn't so arrogant because he wouldn't have lost his friends, his lover (if romanced), or his future.
Let's talk about fanfiction real quick, and more specifically the "reader" character and why I think it's absolutely genius.
You've created a premise, you've created a person to experience this world that you have created, then created the option for your readers to experience it one of two ways: as though it's actually them or as just another character. Literally that's amazing writing and an absolutely marvel of writing creativity.
In other stories, a reader could immerse themselves but there will always be that disconnect. In fanfiction, with "y/n" that disconnect is lessened or totally not there. And to be able to create a reader!character well is a sign of absolute mastery over writing imo.
Idk, the fanfiction community has me in a chokehold. I love y'all, keep doing what you do <3
Oh to be a naked tragic lady in a Renaissance painting

Am I the only one upset about how Padmé is almost erased from Star Wars lore and history. Like there’s so little about her without just focusing on her marriage or her being the twins mother, especially in SW art. I get those things are extremely important to the plot and narrative but Padmé Amidala was sooo much more than that?!?! She was the elected Queen of her people, she was adored by her people and she loved them back, she stood up for what was right even at the expense of herself multiple times, when her time for her queenly duties were through she didn’t retire like she obviously could have, NO she knew her people still needed her, her voice in the senate would be of use so she became a senator in a time of uncertainty. She was so powerful the separatists (ol’ palps) sent assassins after her to silence her! This was all before her secret marriage!!! Not to mention all the bills and plots she uncovered or had to be lead astray from during the clone wars!! Padmé was amazing, she even did her duties while pregnant with twins! She deserves more recognition for what she accomplished by being herself, not just Anakin’s wife or Luke and Leia’s mom!
