What A Waste - Tumblr Posts
“Right now, you may not want to feel anything. Maybe you’ll never want to feel anything…. We rip out so much of ourselves to be cured of things faster that we go bankrupt by the age of 30 and have less to offer each time we start with someone new. But to make yourself feel nothing so as not to feel anything—what a waste!”
Every year in June, a brave group of daredevils in the city of Alesund, Norway stack up hundreds of wood pallets to a height of over 130 feet, which they then light on fire in celebration of Midsummer and John the Baptist’s birthday.
GRRM writing female characters: l want to explore the depths of woman. Femininity is so complex and really is at the core of any female character, especially in a medieval system driven by the patriarchy. I want to explore that I want to write women as people so here have a widowed mother who’s watching her teen son become a king and she ends up helping his downfall not because she’s malicious but because she’s his mother and was trying to protect him. And here’s two sister wives who arguably were more influential than their brother and husband and king. And here’s a canonically ugly teenager who’s trying to find her place in the world when she can fit into neither the category of lady or knight. Here are two young sisters both using their specific strengths to survive in environments that wants them dead. I am so good at complex women.
Also GRRM writing female characters: look at this beautiful young lady no one is hotter than her. Men from all over the world chase after her hand. A bastion of grace and class and elegance. Built by the gods themselves to bless this earth. Look here she is getting married and being a dutiful wife and mother. What’s that, you want to learn more about the intricacies of her character? I just told you. She’s the hottest girl in the seven kingdoms and she’s a good wife. Also she’s twelve.
So disappointed seeing so many One Piece fanart in artist alleys and none of them feature the older men titties 😔
Endless SPN Edits: Slash Fiction, 215/∞
the twist of that movie felt so anticlimactic like i literally expected him to be a double agent because thats what they were teasing and i feel cheated. like its implied he has some big secret and discredits the n*zi belief system in the first scene and i the fool took that as obviously meaning a gay man infiltrating them but thats what happens when you use queercoding as comedic relief i guess
Man, I think I might be the only one saying this: most of the LOV is nothing but a waste. Their potential to show that they are victims of hero society? Its there, but as the series goes on, they become nothing more than the bad guys turned terrorists.
Were they captured and repented for their crimes? Nope, aside from Spinner, Dabi, and...maybe Mr. Compress? Most of them died without facing the consequences. (Not counting Magne because she died early on)
Shigeraki loses his autonomy as a character during the final fight and gets replaced with AFO. Not only that, but AFO was manipulating his life from the start. Really dude? So what we saw from Shigeraki's downfall was all because of AFO? Really dude? What a way to kill off any sentiment I had for Shigeraki.
Toga...I don't feel bad for this girl. She shows no remorse for the shit she has done yet wants other people to understand her "love?" Her love is not only twisted as fuck, but wrong on so many levels! You don't get to have a break down because both Midoriya and Uraraka disagree with you! Stop playing victim!
Spinner was okay up until the very end. He said Shigeraki was his hero and even praising him. Dude, you were second-guessing yourself multiple times while in league, yet you stayed out of loyalty. He should have bailed when he had the chance, or even better, acknowledged what he has done. But nope! Let's make him sing songs about Shigeraki and have him blame Izuku for killing his "hero." Pathetic.
Dabi was cool, up until the Paranormal Liberation arc. There, he turned into a psychopathic man child with daddy issues. The creator was sooo close with Dabi, he even made Dabi expose his father's crimes to the public. Why did he have to lose his character as a result of his exposure? Was it really that hard to keep him collected? Good god.
The only LOV villain that was well written in my eyes was Twice. I legitimately felt bad for the guy. His backstory, personality, and his motives struck a core with me. Just wanting to be accepted for who I am and wanting to be useful to others, it's so damn relatable. Truly a shame that he was killed.
What a damn waste of antagonists to such a fun series.
thanks for wasting 8.5 years of my life and love
so thanks for nothing.
