Finished Wives and Daughters (1999) and I loved everything except the ending, not because it was bad, but just because … the romance? It needed more romance! I have spent 700 pages and something like 6 hours of screen time waiting for Molly and Roger to kiss, and I don’t even get that?? What is this!!!!

Other than that, I loved this adaptation, I think it’s one of the best cases of book to screen I’ve ever seen, and I am very tempted to find and purchase a copy for myself 👀

#on the other hand!! something so perfect about Roger having all these things he thought he needed to say to convince Molly #and at the first indication that he’s going to profess his love she just says “yes” yes!!! naturally! how could it be anything else?#it just needed a bittttt more romance at the end #and also Molly in pants? highly questionable but I give it a squinting pass #SQUINTING!#elly's posts #wives and daughters #w&d 1999 #don’t look bestie

really love dynamics that are like 'it honestly doesn't matter if you view them as romantic or platonic, the point is that they love each other. the type of love is inconsequential, all that matters is that it's there'. gotta be one of my favorite genders.

#who cares if its platonic love who fucking CARES if its because they wanna kiss like the devotion and the tenderness is there no matter what #mainly brought to you by: jack and anne from black sails but also probably sydcarmy and msr #sydcarmy #msr #rackhanne #the bear #black sails #txf #the x files #mulder x scully #sydney x carmy #jack rackham x anne bonny #oh wait perhaps also theonsa if you squint #maybe not

blah blah blah colour theory but jayce went from piltover’s pure and golden boy dressed in white to being in mourning black for all that he’s lost (“my partner died in that room”)…

#rambles #arcane #arcane season 2 #jayce talis #jayvik #jayvik if you squint #he’s not playing a part anymore! he’s just going through it!#may also be the first time he’s dressing as himself as cued by the rolled up sleeves (letting down defenses/armour)

i don't really like when people say dungeon meshi is accidentally good autistic representation, because while i understand not wanting to make conclusions without explicit confirmation from the author, there's always the weird assumption that non-western authors somehow don't know about things like neurodivergency/queerness/etc. (on top of the assumptions that east asian authors are somehow more naive or oblivious to "western" social issues).

given that dungeon meshi started being published in 2014, it's not really a "work belonging to its times"—it's as contemporary as any other media we discuss on this site, which means it should be fair to assume it engages with contemporary topics (and at the very least, you shouldn't say that the representation is accidental with so much confidence)

but anyways, the chapter "perfect communication" in ryoko kui's "terrarium in a drawer" is some of the most straightforward autistic representation I've seen, and from now on I'm going to assume that laios's character writing is absolutely intentional in that regard:

#beepbeep.txt #dungeon meshi #ryoko kui #this is me trying to explain h/ollow knight lore #also yayyyy reading new things. chapter 18 'spring' is basically UFUT if you squint (sorry for the jumpscare if you know UFUT)#but the last two pages were such a surprising gut punch....it's hard not to see it as a metaphor for both the experience of raising childre #and of taking care of your parents in old age....aughh....

Okay but Stan is ALSO trans and has yet to tell either of them so it’s fine (as soon as you put he/him in your bio you become horrible at communicating I fear)
