I love Raph and haven’t said that enough so to be more specific I love that Raph is a soft boy who loves bear plushies, a gross boy who eats an assortment of things that are definitely better left alone, a smart boy who is more than capable of taking down villains through planning and fortitude alike, a strong boy who is dedicated to training his muscles and fighting prowess, a teenage boy who loves his brothers but is more than happy to tease and roughhouse with them, an angry boy who sometimes lets his anger take a hold of him to cover the fear, a gentle boy who is generous with hugs and affirmations to those he loves, a capable boy who takes on more than should ever be expected of a teenager, a good boy who just wants to be a hero and slowly comes to realize the cost of that duty, a good boy who has no reservations about putting himself in the way of harm coming to his family, a good boy who’s a great brother and son and person and deserves only the best the world has to offer.

I wanna say that like 80-90% of the time I just feel like a guy bein' a dude, but then there's this 10-20% where I just feel like. A goblin. A werewolf. A certified creechur. I can't really extrapolate it better than that with my limited vocab.

Most of the time I wanna grill and learn woodworking and make puns. Sometimes I wanna gnaw on femurs and scuttle around and be indecipherable but approachable as an Entity. And I don't really know what that means yet tbh.

I don't think anything has shown media bias more strongly than the time a few years back when Women's March people got upset at the pro-lifers, because, "How dare you host your pro-life rally on the same day as our Women's March?" only to be told, "We've been doing this on this date since the '70s, with turnouts several times larger than your Women's March ever had, yet you've never heard of ours while yours dominates every cable news station for days."

HISTORICAL DEPICTIONS OF CERYS CELTIGAR.

the true character of lady cerys has been difficult for the historian to ascertain. grand maester munkun writes positively of her as the protectress of the future viserys ii and as the one who made his rescue and return to westeros possible. septon eustace attributes less noble intentions to her, depicting her as a scheming, treacherous woman. he strongly doubts her claimed dragon dream, noting only targaryens had ever been confirmed to have them, and suggests her discovery of the prince in essos was coincidence and that she manipulated the situation to secure a return from disgraced exile. mushroom's salacious stories of cerys celtigar are more suited for the brothel than for the history books, and her long list of purported lovers on both sides of the dance cannot seriously be considered true, but among some circles she is still remembered as the 'great prostitute' of both the blacks and greens.

March–April 2024. A very strange, frequently tasteless, mostly inexplicable black comedy political satire from the creator of SUCCESSION — though more strongly reminiscent, presumably on purpose, of the 2017 THE DEATH OF STALIN — THE REGIME is a six-part miniseries starring a self-consciously frumpy-looking, outrageously hammy Kate Winslet as Elena Vernham, the egomaniacal authoritarian chancellor of an unnamed Ruritanian state somewhere in Central Europe.

As her hapless husband (Guillaume Gallienne) and self-dealing underlings tiptoe around her growing list of neuroses and increasingly erratic mood swings, a soldier named Herbert Zubak (Matthias Schoenaerts), notorious for his role in a brutal massacre of striking mine workers, is recruited to play a hard-to-define, ever-shifting supporting role in Elena's ongoing psychological breakdown and various political confrontations.

Winslet seems to have been having fun, although she overacts shamelessly, and what accent she thinks she's doing seems to vary from moment to moment; the median could best be described as "Margaret Thatcher, very tipsy, trying to pretend she's not sucking on an Everlasting Gobstopper." Schoenaerts, for reasons that are never clear, plays Zubak like a punch-drunk boxer trying to walk off a life-threatening concussion, leaving his character a perplexing cipher throughout.

Like THE DEATH OF STALIN (which I thought wildly overrated), THE REGIME is more often crass and uncomfortable than actually funny, and its smug misogyny would be offensive if taken seriously (which is admittedly very difficult). Also, given the current state of the UK, watching the largely British cast mock the political instability of a fictitious "Middle European" autocracy causes some seasickness. (Whistling past the graveyard, perhaps, but still.) CONTAINS LESBIANS? No! VERDICT: Much more "funny strange" than "funny ha-ha," and because it's basically a one-note joke, it becomes like one of those terrible SNL skits that just won't end.

This is purely an observation, but I think there is something to be said about parallels between Young Justice and Transformers Prime.

Both are animated series that debuted in the early 2010s, they were darker than the usual adaptation of their respective franchises, and they got screwed by corporate shenanigans (The former's first run's airing was apparently a mess and got axed because it wasn't selling enough toys with boys, the latter's third season got a last-minute director change and the beginning of the end of the aligned continuity, and a ballooning budget for both).

And most interesting IMO, both had an extremely passionate fanbase behind them and while there are still plenty of people in their respective fanbases, I'm seeing more and more people talking about them in a more critical light.

i feel like hating on a media has an expiration date

like i don't mean legit crit but like

shitting on shows su-crit style even if like i objectively agree that i don't like parts of a show it kind of just makes me tilt my head and go

you're running a salt blog on this show? several years after it's over? reiterating the same points SEVERAL times ad infinitum? like you're in the fucking trenches of the infinity war on this cartoon? i don't even think this is that constructive of media crit on this show at this point?

I'm not even mad about any of that it's just that in my experience. how do you even find the time.

i have my hands full actually commenting on and experiencing and creating shit i like. how do you find the time for this??
