#Bitches MIGHT love Lauren.....idk tho

[sillyg0ose4527281]

erm... I think bitches love lauren....idk tho

[langst-wins]

the last thing i'm gonna say about voltron, unintentional queerbaiting, and major s8 plotholes, and then imma shut up and let y'all be free from my long bitch ass s8 posts so we can get back to regularly scheduled klance fanfics & fanarts

yes, they queerbaited us with shiro as rep. not in the sense that he wasn't queer but in the sense that they hyped us up for his relationship with adam, made us think we were gonna see an adashi reunion, and we ended up getting like 90 seconds top of LGBT content over the entire series.

no, I highly doubt they did it intentionally. yes, they did admit they fucked up and apologized several times. yes, I appreciate the apology and I understand that they're human beings and people make mistakes and overlook things sometimes. like they said, they never meant to make anyone feel baited. they really thought they were going to get a good response. lauren called voltron a "learning experience" in the open letter to the fandom after s7. I think she meant learning experience in general ofc but I think she also meant they've learned how to and how not to do LGBT rep in a show.

but I will absolutely be taking any promises of LGBT rep from lm and jds with a grain of salt. i will absolutely be watching their future works from afar and not getting myself too invested until the series ends and I can watch it as a whole while knowing what to expect.

I dont think they MEANT harm but y'all...they fucked up. they know it, and they apologized. it shows maturity that they apologized in that open letter after s7 and at the final nycc panel, and again, I appreciate that.

but I would rather they have not said anything about LGBT rep, ever, and just let gay shiro be a nice surprise. then, the minimal rep we received would have been wonderful and a nice warm surprise instead of a huge disappointment. it was only a disappointment because it didn't live up to the hype they made for it. and I know the hype was partially due to marketing they had no control over, but it was absolutely partially them, too.

they didn't promise LGBT content in LoK and canon korrassami ended up being a nice surprise even though it was minimal. that was how they SHOULD have done shiro's sexuality if they knew it was going to be a small thing. I would rather they have kept their lips zipped about LGBT, not announced gay shiro ahead of time, and just it be what it was when seasons 7 and 8 came out.

again, I dont think the bait was intentional, but it was bait all the same.

you are not crazy or too sensitive if your feelings are hurt/you feel baited by this show. you are not a shitty person if you just dont trust them right now. dont let people tell you otherwise. it's okay to take a step back from their work and wait to see how their next show plays out before you get involved.

i really do love voltron, even though s8 was confusing af, seasons 1-7 were LIT. I enjoy bits and pieces of s8 but mostly it was a let down. not only because of rep, just because a lot of things didn't make sense to me and a lot of the problem solving just felt way too convenient.

like I feel like every conflict in the plot was resolved way too easily and/or in ways that didnt make sense. and I feel like most of the characters' futures in the credits didnt really match up to those characters personalities. specifically lance, hunk, and keith.

lance staying on earth with his family, spreading allura's message to carry on her legacy? makes perfect sense, valid af. lance becoming a farmer? not so much. I feel like he would have been better suited as teaching classes as a pilot instructor at the garrison or smth similar. altean lance still gave me whiplash and left me confused af but he looks so damn 👌👌👀👀🙌🙌😭 with his cute ass altean marks that I'm just gonna let that one go for the sake of aesthetic.

hunk becoming a chef? not ooc necessarily but I feel like he would have been better suited as a diplomat. y'know. ambassador to earth sort of thing.

keith aiding in recovery efforts and being a humanitarian (...alien-itarian...? idk). okay let's be real we all knew this edgy boi has a soft ass heart. I think hes just mature enough now to let his walls come down and not be afraid of caring ig. which is sweet and nice and all. but I feel like he wouldnt...JUST be doing that. like he would still want the battle and the adrenaline and the badass mf fight sequences. that's kinda his Thing.

shiro marrying a rando? I would have preferred adam to not die and them end up getting back together once shiro returned to earth. i just feel like there was no reason to kill off adam? shiro has already suffered so much, what was the point? but i'm not gonna hate on curtis bc we dont know jackshit about him and for all we know he could be a bombass dude. shiro looked happy tho and it's better than him being forever alone so I can hesitantly accept that ig. but on one condition and one condition only: their ship name must be shirts. if their ship name is not shirts then I dont want it

allura's death was pointless. i havent seen anyone disagree with this one so far. her life was full of suffering and then she died. like can we all just agree she was done dirty and it was entirely unnecessary.

dont come @ me with "you just dont like s8 bc your ship wasnt canon"

that's not it at all.

they could have made this season so amazing and still not have made klance canon. they could have left me disappointed in no klance but still happy because the finale made my heart go dynamite BOOM. I could have ended the last episode with no canon klance and still been smiling because the plot was bitchin' and the characters were all alive and happy.

but they didnt, so I wasnt. it just...wasnt a good season. it had good aspects, yes, but as a whole? meh.

season 8 was poorly handled. it really was. it had so much potential to end with EVERY character having a positive ending and still have an actual satisfying conclusion to the war. I know they wanted to show how heavy and serious and heartbreaking the war actually was, but you can make an emotional, heavy finale without killing off a main character and leaving her main character love interest lonely and grieving. like im sorry killing allura and leaving lance sad and lonely was not necessary at all to the plot it just flat out wasnt. they did those characters dirty and they did allurance shippers even dirtier.

allurancers cheered seeing their ship canon then had it ripped out from under them and my heart honestly grieves worse for my allurance and allura stan fam than my klance fam. they did y'all so wrong and i'm sorry it had to go down like that.

sheith shippers got fucked over when all that development and relationship and growth culminated into basically nothing in the final season. like as a broganes stan even i was taken aback by the sudden radio silence between them so I cant imagine how let down actual sheith shippers feel.

us adashi shippers? obvious. adam's death was not necessary. and dont tell me it was to show the heaviness and realness of death in war because vld does NOT have a track record of dead characters staying dead. they could have at least gave us some mild development with shirts (lmfao im so sorry but shirts) and let us see more of curtis as a character. like...literally just two 60 second scenes would have been nice. they could have easily fit that in.

us klancers got fucked over by unnecessary parallels to canon ships. they could have made it a cute platonic friendship in s8 and let us enjoy it and proceed to enjoy fanon klance without all those blatant parallels to shay/hunk that just left us confused. and the parallels in earlier seasons. like why did you have to make so many parallels to romantic moments and romantic tropes if it was platonic. why did you have to go and do that. what was the point.

s8 could have ended in such a way that shippers of every ship in the fandom were satisfied with the finale because their faves were treated right and the plot was fire. it had so much potential in the first half and could have been so damn good.

it wasnt though. the entire thing was so confusing and nothing about it felt like vld. It feels like a spin off or a reboot. I dont like s8 as a whole and I doubt I ever will. it might grow on me in time but I'll never fully like it, y'know. everything about it felt so tilted and off and just wrong.

but it really just be like that sometimes ig.

6, 22, 23 and 25 🥰🧡

Thank you Eve!!

6)  three songs you wish you could erase from history (because they’re terrible)I care **a lot** about lyrics, so that’s what makes me hate the following songs. They make me angry and they glorify awful, shitty behavior. And btw the last two songs are ones that played regularly at places I used to work, which meant I heard them...all the fucking time. Ugh. Honorable mention to LFO’s “Summer Girls” bc the lyrics are so asinine that the first time I heard it I thought it was just a really long Sprite commercial. 

-Blurred Lines by Robin Thicke: can you hear me gagging rn?? not even linking this trash song. fuck rape culture. -Elusive Butterfly by Bob Lind: man turns into a spirit to creepily creep on the girl he likes. what? -Watching You Sleep by Bleu: yes, this IS a song about standing outside someone’s window and watching them sleep. The only good thing about this song is that my ex and I would sing it if one of us needed to pee while the other was in the shower, substituting “pee” for “sleep.” 

22)  three songs you listen to when you’re sad When I’m sad I wanna cry it out. I rarely listen to pep me up music, and would much rather just roll with the ache. I have a mix of songs that I made when I was really depressed and these three are highlights. But like, in a good way. 

In the Picture by The Julie Ruin: for when I’m sad about past relationships and general weird co-dependency shit. Trouble by Cat Stevens: I first saw Harold and Maude when I was maybe 9 years old, because my grandmother liked Cat Stevens and weird shit. I can’t hear this without thinking of Maude’s death scene. This Year by The Mountain Goats: I know it’s trite, like this is everyone’s “I’m depressed and kinda don’t think I’ll live but GODDAMN IT, I am **really** trying! to! make it! But yeah. It works. 

23)  three songs that never fail to get you pumped upThese songs make me dance or wanna dance or just make me feel ALIVE! The latter two have been songs that I had sung instead of the birthday song because they pump me up and feel like elemental energy songs. (seriously tho, fuck the birthday song, it never sounds good and it’s generic af! pick a song that feels significant and play it! ppl can sing along or not) 

I Don’t Feel Like Dancing by The Scissor Sisters: I wish the video to this song was a party full of people looking bored af and slowly being infected by a wild ass gay dancer moving past them til the whole place is shaking! Don’t Stop Me Now by Queen: How can you be down when you sing “I’m a sex machine, ready to reload, like an atom bomb about to oh-oh-oh EXPLODE” ???!!!! You can’t. Or I can’t, anyway. This was my birthday song for 3 years I think. Girl Almighty by One Direction: That kicky little beat! The bizarre but empowering lyrics! The idea of floating thru the room on a big balloon! HAVE ANOTHER TOAST, bitches!!! YES! This was my birthday song this year and I think it might make it to my 40th/The Meg Gala. 

25)  three favourite songs of 2017SO. The trick to this is that there were some great 1D solo songs that came out!! BUT if I use one I’ll feel I’m neglecting the others. So they’re off the table. I had to google songs from 2017, time doesn’t work in such a way that I can single out certain years anymore. 

Love on the Brain by Rihanna: HOLY SHIT WHAT A TUNE!!! idk what else to say about it? I love a song that feels like it’s slow, sexy, and powerful. She’s going for the thing she wants even though it’s bad, and that’s so unrelatable for me but I can’t even care bc it’s RIHANNA???What Ifs by Kane Brown ft. Lauren Alaina: I stumbled across this dude listening to spotify country station mix, and he was singing a song about his small town and I was like, “haha, that sounds like my small town!” And then he referenced something in my small town and it turns out he’s from there?? And then I found this song, which is a duet with a girl my family has known since she was a child (they had a CD she made when she was 8 singing standards). It also includes one of my favorite lyrical tropes: “it’s our last first kiss.” DAMN, it’s good. Praying by Kesha: Ooh, a song that will truly rip your heart out in a gorgeous way. And the song (and album) that she deserved to put out!  LISTEN i know nobody else wrote an entire novel on these 3 song things, but I did??!!
