Ok i think im really sick of this so i'll say it - it is very obvious how much of a higher standard people here hold max up to compared with the rest of the cast and im really sick of people pretending they don't do this.

You are not smart for saying constantly "oh max is an asshole" and not providing any other further explanation for that same statement. You all will ignore the times that other, worse written characters have been rude in the show in favour of reiterating the same point over and over and over and over and im really sick of pretending otherwise. Like no shit max is an asshole id be a dickhead too if my entire worldview was based on the fact that my parents are too busy to give a fuck and i have only myself to rely on in this world.

And if i said this is also heavily because of the fact that max is an indian child and a lot of people have issues with seeing children as people by themselves along with how poc are adultified socially id be the bad guy. I'll likely elaborate on this more in a later post but I simply have so many issues with how this fanbase treats max and im really sick of this

finished dhes & kel's character pages so here are the lil edits i made for both of em :-)

Some. Sort of spectrum. From most likely to least likely.

And by kitten-pile I mean This

I'll put a transcript under cut for easier reading! 🫡

How Likely Are They to Kitten Pile?

__

Mirabilis: "are you tired..? do you need a break...? ohh we could take one together..."

If she likes/trusts you even a little, she wants to cuddle about it!!!

-

Sharena and Peony: "Okay! 💖 Yay! 💖"

Shari: The only thing stopping her is social conventions -- making her MORE likely to jump at the opportunity!

Peony: Learning social awareness as she goes, and is surprisingly good at it?

-

Triandra: "Aren't we a bit old for that...? But... even so..."

Embarrassed, conflicted, but feels strangely nostalgic at the notion...

-

Plumeria: "I'm not so petal-soft that I'd resort to such INDECENCY, I mean even if your intentions are Pure USE YOUR HEADS YOU FOOLS!! Girl, the IMPLICATIONS!!!"

Desperately wants to join the kitten-pile, but her Issues and Pride gets in the way.

-

Moe: "aw, so cutes!"

Generally touch adverse, extremely picky even with the people it likes/loves -- everything is entirely on its terms.

Me, reading before bed: I don't think I know how to recognize what it feels like "put my heart into" things because I struggle to recognize most positive emotions since I dissociate so much by default and kind of just passively exist in life. Passivity is my default state and it blocks me from experiencing and feeling things.

Loki, fully aware of the dissociative disorder and trauma this all stems from because we've had this conversation before: Yup. Let's maybe hold onto the realization this time, shall we?

embracing the vampire autism i have going on apparently means combing through 500 vtm books and making notes on the lore and contradictions in the lore and potential implications and what was intended to be taken from some things vs things that actually make sense in context/with better research and sorting through what was included for mechanical gameplay vs worldbuilding reasons and combining all of this + the information intentionally left vague so i can form my own ideas into an amalgam of schrodingers canon with which to try to figure out what i personally tend to view as canon in-universe and then still figuring out how to insert the contradictory information/alternate interpretations in as like. character opinion/intentional misinformation/etc.

okay so we know that tech's helmet is made to go over his goggles , they don't catch on the rims or anything thus tech's helmet would have had to come off before his goggles did if they somehow managed to whilst he fell ??

i highly doubt tech has an seal on his helmet due to it needing to be open for his goggles thus perhaps is less secure ?? we even see his goggles being moved round & nearly dislodged when he is flying with omega so they aren't very tightly on his head.

yet hemlock said 'i'm afraid this is all that I could salvage' when talking with hunter about the smashed goggles ...

so with all that air support that imperial base has & the threat any clone from clone force 99 poses so they wouldn't just leave it an unknown if tech survived thus they would search for his body right ??? but hemlock couldn't locate tech's helmet , other armour , or even parts of it , let alone his body ????? only a shattered pair of goggles ...

which is entirely probably that hemlock just finds tech's goggles because when tech is falling , it looks as if he's flipping over which makes sense if he wants to face the ground so he can find a possible handhold / grapple hold to escape & it could be a reason why his helmet may slip off with all the air rushing by same with his goggles or because he's being whipped round as he falls ?

or say tech does catch himself hitting the ground , he leaves his goggles on the ground , breaking them in hopes that hemlock's arrogance would blind him to searching more ?? assuming that hemlock would think they flew off in the fall as well ??

or maybe tech sheds his armour sporadically to throw off his trail because he's now wearing stormtrooper armour to conceal himself ??? then when wrecker , hunter , & echo come to get omega & crosshair , they get some sudden help from a stormtrooper who is actually tech underneath !

You ever wake up at a random time but its okay because your cat is there (and he loves you) and your roommates are just a few rooms over (and they also love you) and you have other friends out there (who love you) and you just sit there for a minute like... wow...thanks...<3

I feel the need to acknowledge that hitchhiking holds a very special place in my heart completely regardless of whether or not it’s my favorite on the mcou albums. because it was the first song to play at swc5 and now every time i hear it i suddenly revert back to being 16 and feeling my soul leave my body in the 9th row of the shrine theatre in LA

I was reading the reasoning behind why you chose Quinn as Catherine Parr for your Glee Presents: Six the Musical gifset and you said she has a brand of white feminism. Why do you think so? 🤔

Oh man that's kind of a big topic that definitely deserves more of an answer than I'm able to give right now, but if I save this ask for later I'll just end up never getting to it. So I hope you don't mind me giving a sort of half-answer with the potential of further elaboration in the future.

To be fair, in my mind I conflate Quinn's brand of pop feminism with more specifically white feminism a lot. But what I mean is that Six's well-intentioned but ultimately kind of flat message conveyed in Parr's song reminded me of how Quinn gets "woke" after getting pregnant. You know, the "boys objectify us all the time" and "women earn less than men" sort of thing. And to be clear, those are correct statements. The Glee guys objectify the girls all the time. The show does too, in fact. And women do statistically earn less for the same work. But these are the sort of "water is wet" generic statements that teen shows attempting some sort of feminism would say in 2010 without actually exploring patriarchal issues in any sort of depth.

The way I see it, Quinn became Glee's spokesperson for feminist phrases that often aimed to do one of two things. A) genuinely try to highlight an issue or B) poke fun at pop feminism and use the rich white girl who always ends up centering her life around men to do it. The problem with A), like in The Power of Madonna, is that Glee doesn't even get close to saying anything useful about issues it highlights and solves sexism with the boys singing What It Feels Like For a Girl. Okay? Now, that isn't on Quinn, but when she's so often the mouthpiece for meaningless buzzwords and generic statements of the kind of #girlbossery that 2010 took seriously but we make fun of now, it's hard not to associate it with her. And in the case of B), such as her wild Gloria Steinem spiel in I Do, well it just feels disingenuous for a number of reasons, and this is the part we probs don't have the capacity to get into today.

But what I'm trying to say is that Quinn was given so many of these #girlbossery lines and, when I rewatched season 1, I realized just how many of them also reeked of what we'd now recognize as white feminism. And far be from me to downplay Quinn's trauma and struggles, but she just ain't the girl for intersectionality with her WASPy background and distinctly feminism 101 approach to things. Maybe this is more of a vibe I get from her, and to be clear I blame the writers entirely, but I've talked to others who got this same vibe from her statements. I think any sort of feminism Glee attempts is also white feminism, though, so again I'm not blaming Queen Bee Quinn the ch. It's just the vibe that she'd point out the wage gap, something that doesn't actually affect them in high school, but ignore racist made at the expense of Santinacedes. I also get the vibes that, in-universe, even her feminism 101 only comes post-pregnancy when she experiences just some of the discrimination women like Mercedes have always faced. I mean, I love Quinncedes do not get me wrong. And this whole post feels like I'm dragging Quinn when I'm not lol. But they explicitly make the parallel of being black and pregnant in Quinncedes scenes and it's like, girl.

It's a Man's Man's Man's World, basically. Watch that performance. That's what I mean. And like I say it's sort of intentional on the writer's part but it's also sort of just how Glee operates when it comes to gender dynamics and (the lack of) intersectionality.
