did you see that deniz camp was announced as the writer for absolute martian manhunter?

I woke up to this news and many of my friends pinging me (thank you friends I love you all)

let's get the elephant out of the room: WHY IS HE WHIIIIITE WHY I HATE IT

I mean I get why he's white- it's part of the pitch that this alien is the ultimate outsider possessing the ultimate insider, so it looks like they're leaning towards a buddy cop scenario instead of J'onn shapeshifting into and impersonating a dead human but. Isn't that just Halo. An Alien possessing a human? I get that there's some crossover with impersonating the dead here but this isn't technically a new concept.

I thought the appeal of the Absolute and Ultimate lines was rearranging the chess pieces of a Superhero's story and showing how even when you make drastic changes, they can still feel quintessentially Batman, Spiderman, Superman, etc. Bruce can be working class but still Batman. But right now this pitch feels like disregarding Martian Manhunter lore entirely except for the most superficial parts kept intact. Also DC seems so allergic to racebending for their Absolute line compared to Marvel. We get Polynesian Hulk and Native Two Spirit Hawkeye (from Deniz Camp also!!), but this line can't even give us Black Martian Manhunter? Part of why Black!J'onn resonates with so many people is because it grounded his character by making his marginalization as an othering alien (especially compared to Superman) relatable to humans (the whole point of stories). Trading that humanizing element of J'onn for more sci fi wackiness is only going to make J'onn struggle in the long run. It's such a bummer.

I've had a suspicion that instead of DC taking Martian lore and rearranging it into something new that could revitalize J'onn, that they just don't have the creativity to see any potential in the mess they made of him, so they'd just toss it all out. And that's disappointing. If you told me this was a Tom King pitch, I'd believe you. Because what is this.

tie tying doodles w ramblings on it in tags

i said this all in the tags of abigail’s post, but it was so long that i’m putting it in its own post

i completely understand where this breakup came from, and i am not upset with either of the characters involved in it. i appreciate the slight insight it gives into tommy’s lived experiences and his expectations, as well as the deep seated loneliness that he has alluded to in nearly every episode he has been in. the longing and the hope for connection and family and stability.

so yes, the breakup feels a bit self-sacrificial and self-destructive because he’s doing it now in an effort to protect his own heart. he thinks breaking things off now and dealing with that heartache now would be easier than waiting for it to ‘inevitably’ happen later when he is even more invested. and that makes sense!!! it does not come across, to me, as out of character at all. josh’s great speech even highlighted the scars that come along with queer people’s struggles (pre-glee) with themselves and with their relationships. there are so many experiences that could’ve left tommy scarred that would lead to this feeling that he cannot be buck’s last relationship. so this breakup, while it hurts, makes sense based on tommy’s reasonings, experiences, and conclusions he has come to.

but he also deserves for someone to prove him wrong.

my struggle with this breakup comes from the finality of the post-ep interviews. without the interviews, as a viewer who just saw the episode and is waiting for the next ones to come out without knowing any bts stuff or reading any articles, this would feel like a great path forward for buck to learn what he wants and to go for it — to fight for it.

buck discovering his bisexuality and being in a relationship with a man was never going to automatically solve all of buck’s issues with himself and with relationships, and specifically his place in relationships. but for the past 13 (?) episodes we have seen buck become more secure with himself and his space — the loft has had so many homey and cosy little decor changes, and it has been so interesting to see him feel more comfortable while making his place more comfortable. all of that makes the breakup feel sudden and unexpected, but that was the point. tommy surprised himself too, he even said so. they both felt comfortable and happy, but they also both have their own hangups. but also, they both actually want the same things. they both want love, stability, and mutual care, respect, and understanding. tommy thinks that buck will inevitably, accidentally, not maliciously, break his heart. and tommy does not think he can handle that, which i understand. buck has the opportunity to prove him wrong. but it seems (from interviews) that this is the last we will be seeing of tommy and their relationship.

now to take all of that, and have his next step be to just let this relationship go completely as he uses his old (self admitted) unhealthy coping strategies could be an interesting narrative arc to go down, but, for me, it would really only be worth it if he recognizes this old behavior coming back again, understanding where it’s coming from, and finds security in understanding what he wants. i want buck to feel happy, secure, safe, and loved. no matter who that is with — be it tommy, eddie, or some other person he happens to meet later. no matter who he is with, he is bisexual, and i will always be thankful that we have had this journey of self-discovery with him (which i hope we will continue to see ore development of — would also love if they would actually use the word ‘bisexual’ on the show). buck deserves to have growth and stability within himself and in his relationships, which is very clearly something he wants. he deserves to have that after eight seasons.

at the end of the day though, i will still feel upset for this end to tommy’s story, because he also deserves to feel happy, secure, safe, and loved. i hope he gets that one day. for now, that is what fan works are for.

Death is terrible for anyone. Young or old, good or evil, it's all the same. Death is impartial. There is no especially terrible death. That's why it's so terrifying.

so i completed my first ever fan binding, everything from start to finish - barring writing the fic myself - and i wanted to share the results!!

the fic is the certain things we lack by @deanpendragon on ao3 (it’s an incredible fic, if you haven’t read it already, you really really really should!!)

if anyone wants to bind their own copy using the typeset i made, i’ve put a fully formatted and print-ready pdf along with some instructions for how to go about fan binding (and links to people who can explain the process better than i can) on my google drive!
