i hate grizzly so fucking much that fucking white boy is like “hey let me make yet another skinny twink character with washboard abs” and i fall for it every time because behind the repetitive design choices he is so good at making these really elaborate characters who present this overt sort of lie about themselves that builds them up usually into a respectable person or a larger than life figure but they play so far into this lie to the point where it becomes woven into their identity and they not only have no clue who they are outside of it, but they also don’t know if they can be loved outside of it. and eventually their luck runs thin and they have to admit it and yet every single time despite the fact that they crumble and shatter before the other party members and display the most vulnerable, ugly, broken parts of themselves they are always loved regardless. they have to face that it was not the lie that those people loved, and even if it was, it’s okay to start anew. it’s okay to meet for the first time again. because those actions they took, often selfless, protective, and/or heroic actions, were still their actions. and they can’t shoulder the immeasurable weight of a false identity forever, and they are not a monster for being themself. they can be weak and they can be vulnerable sometimes and they can even do bad things and make mistakes but that doesn’t make them a monster. and no matter what, even if they sometimes try to avoid it, they are always stricken with this inexplicably strong love for the other party members that is so strong that sometimes it may even be a detriment to them. they may sacrifice themselves or overexert whatever power they have to save the others. grizzly pcs know how to love and how to lie and in the end they always have to admit their lie and learn how to turn that love back around towards themselves and accept themselves and it fucks me up every. single. time.

I'm rewatching all the Marvel Defenders shows on Netflix and as much as I mock the MCU now, I need non-Marvel fans to understand that I was and still am a fan of "Daredevil fighting the gentrifying assshole who bought out the police force because ACAB both as a lawyer and vigilante of the community" and "Jessica Jones fighting the man who mind controlled her into doing unspeakable things and forming a community of fellow survivors and allies while dealing with PTSD in a range of both healthy and unhealthy ways" Marvel. God I love these idiots they carried so hard

When you buy or stream MaXXXine, Breaking Bad, The Mandalorian, Godfather of Harlem, Westworld, Kaleidoscope, Captain America, Megalopolis, Abigail, The Electric State, The Boys, Parish, The Gentlemen, Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, and many Spike Lee films, you're giving money to Zionists. Giancarlo Esposito wants to be in the zionist entity.
