Joe and Lupita in the Glambot

[giveamadeuschohisownmovie]

One takeaway I had from “A Quiet Place - Day One” was that it made me realize we usually don’t get this character dynamic from the leads. While it’s not uncommon to have a story about a cynical, depressed protagonist who rediscovers their humanity by meeting a well-meaning, good hearted stranger, it’s usually the opposite in terms of gender. It tends to be the man who is depressed and the woman who pulls him out of his funk. For example, “The Last of Us”.

So it’s pretty neat that Lupita got to be Joel Miller while Joseph Quinn got to be Ellie Williams.

A Quiet Place: Day One finally proves beyond a doubt that cats are indeed the best creatures on earth and they have been slandered in horror media for far too long

A post made me think about this again. No fault to anyone who does this out of complete ignorance, but I do hope if you do realize it you don't continue to do it anyway.

I need aspecs to specify their allos. Need them to start specifying really bad. Some use "allo" to mean "not aro/ace". So, are you included if you're alloace or aroallo? Or do you count towards "home team" more? What if you don't like that division? Is it allorose or not?

Either way, allo isn't even just on the romantic and sexual spectrum. Plenty of people who say "the allos" or similar blanket phrasing are, themselves, allo! They're alloplatonic, allofamilial, alloalterous, etc.! At least, they often tend to be. They just don't think about them, because if you've always had them and never questioned it, you don't really see yourself as "allo", you see yourself as "standard". Not always done out of malicious platonormativity and other normative ideals, but typically out of ignorance. Plenty of alloroses are not "just allos", they're alloalloapls or alloalloafams, or any other assortment of things. They're still aspec, but also allo. This isn't even getting into spectrum labels that can be both allo and aspec at the same time for the same attraction. So, can we get specific? Because really, in a community this big, it's necessary.

I just... need aspecs to realize "allo" is a prefix. You may use it as a word, but it is a part of a word that plenty of things shorten to! It is not that much more effort to type "allorose" or "alloromo" or "allopl" or any other assortment of abbreviations that specify who the hell you're talking about.

SPOILERS FOR A QUIET PLACE DAY ONE

This movie is lowkey a love story. The little meet-cute between Sam and Eric where he just follows her around cuz he's lost and wants to connect with someone. Dude is traumatized and far from home but still got rizz! He took her on a little "date" with pizza and performed a magic show for her. It was so adorable and sweet. Now, when I say love story, I don't explicitly mean romantic love. Yes, there's a touch of that, but it's deeper than that. Sam is dying of cancer, so she's disconnected herself from people and Eric is a stranger in a strange land. Two people who feel cut off and out of place but at the end of the world, they're CONNECTING. On a basic human level, they're touching in the quiet. Also, no one in the movie does sign language (makes sense cuz there's no convenient deaf daughter) but there is convenient rain so characters can talk without breaking the whole "one sound and you're dead" rule the first movie pushed.
