Joey in Redeeming 6 , was not a good brother imo . Other than the fact he was away more than he was there at the house , he left the note only for Aoife and refused to talk to anyone but her when he was in rehab . Darren was completely right about them having a codependent toxic relationship .
I felt so bad for Shan and the boys when he refused to speak to them .
this is super complicated and i honestly feel like i don’t remember enough of the details to really comment on it tbh. but im still going to because duhhhh i love to give my opinions and this time it isn’t even unsolicited
i do think you’re being WAY too harsh on joey. of course he was a bad brother….he was battling a drug addiction! typically addicts are not known for being stable forces in their families but it’s not something that’s not redeemable (no pun intended - especially considering this isn’t really a pun) or understandable or forgivable considering his HORRENDOUS life circumstances
the whole point is kind of that he was bad but he was doing his best and also that he never should’ve been put in the position to face that struggle. you aren’t supposed to think he’s perfect or never did anything wrong when it came to the way he raised the kids and his life choices but there’s nuance in there beyond “he is a bad brother”. it’s complicated on purpose and you’re ignoring so many levels of what was going on
also you can’t read a series like boys of tommen and then be mad that there’s a codependent toxic relationship 😭😭😭 this is what you signed up for and if you don’t like it that’s totally fine but you should go find another genre outside of this specific romance subset
also, darren doesn’t get to speak on ANYTHING imo. he shows up in the final hour to try and control joey’s life and criticize his relationship to the one person that actually supported him??? maybe if darren had been there for joey he wouldn’t have developed an addiction or an unhealthy attachment to one singular person but that was not the case….darren should never have been there criticizing joey for problems that darren directly caused. if it seemed like he was actually trying to help joey and present actual solutions that would be different. instead he just berated and blamed joey for everything that went wrong which is so beyond insensitive and problematic. medical professionals were recommending one thing for joey and darren was refusing to take their advice because of what HE thought was best….🙄 fuck off. as if he ever did what was best for his siblings his whole entire life….dont ever defend darren to me that man SUCKS
#sorry i don’t even like this series but sometimes internet discussions of addicts drive me bananas#actually not sometimes all the time#i will NEVER forget the way people talked about daisy jones when the show was airing omfg#and i shouldn’t say people i should say camila stans#also lily calloway 💔#needless to say even though i don’t like bot this is a touchy subject for me in general#and i WILL defend joey#the guy grew up in an abusive household and was poor and was abandoned by his older brother which is ouch on its own#but then that forced him to take on the burdens of an entire household and provide for his mother and take care of his baby siblings#all while he was like 12 or 13. give him a break. who WOULDNT turn to drugs#those kids were hearing their dad rape their mom on a regular basis and now you’re turning around like ‘he was a bad brother for getting#addicted to heroin’ BYEEEEEEEEEEE#yeah he was not always the best brother but it wasn’t his job to be. he was ALL they had#he was so drugged up and STILL was the best parental figure those kids had#you want to say joey was a bad brother when darren was the one that LEFT? when their father was ABUSIVE? cmon now#i say this as an oldest sister to FIVE little sisters i would NEVER and i mean NEVER do what darren did#he shouldn’t have been in that position either but he WAS and unlike joey he was significantly older and an ACTUAL ADULT#like thats the key difference here is that while NO older sibling should be in a position where they need to RAISE their younger siblings#let alone while they live in a house with their abusive parents#one of them was 18 and the other one was 12. it’s OBVIOUS who that responsibility should’ve gone to#and darren was AWFUL for abandoning them. if joey had been the 18 year old he would’ve gotten custody of those kids and given EVERYTHING to#provide for them. he would have found a way. darren never even tried#asks#anonymous

I find it so funny how even though Joey is always the one who starts the yo mama jokes/tomfoolery, Jason only ever yells at Merwin about it

Every single fucking thing about Joey’s character makes sense when you consider he has internalized that physical abuse is a good thing

This supermegashow video is insane ? like ? people are just saying shit like that about them since 2019 ? ? i mean not sure if they are wrong or that much misinformed apart from dan's wrong words but still insane !!!!!!!!! 'i bet they have crazy sex going on' like randos just say shit like that about them publicly ? yooooo like do they even do that for beyonce and jay z ? do anyone says they have crazy sex ?
people should shut the fuck up about dnp unless they actually know enough to talk about them. i hate misinformation so much. gosh, i hate everything about that. at this point it's just disrespectful to not only Dan (which is like, whatever, some of these people don't know him), but his whole story and experience. like, you can literally watch the video before speaking. you don't have to read someone else's (incorrect!) interpretation of Dan's words. this is fucking bizarre.
we talk about hard launch. and despite me not seeing how anything dnp could say at this point can be considered as hard launch simply because of how much they have already told us and what we know since 2009, i see the point in making a statement for headlines for the outsiders to shut up. like, omg, i know dnp don't really care what these people say because it doesn't change anything. but wouldn't it be fun to just shut them up and take that "hehehaha for clicks" away from them? a launch that is hard not for us but for these mfs.
this is so annoying. all 3 instances. there's a difference between respectfully joking about dnp and just talking shit for no reason. shit that is not even funny! (okay, Trisha was a bit funny, but only because of how unbothered she was about the whole thing. misinformation was still wild).

Feeding the one (1) Death Sentence fan on here
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ermmm I kinda wanted to practice drawing the brothers and maybe add some headcanons or whatever .. idk .. I could talk about the gang for HOURS but the little notes I wrote are only a VERY small portion of what I think in my little head .. Mostly because I don't wanna clutter up the canvas – Let me know if I should make these for the other members too !
Anyways here's an animation I worked on as well (if the quality is dookie blame Tumblr cuz I had nothing to do with that)
Tumblr media
Since it's a movie from the 2000s I think this is an obligatory thing to make . Also my first time drawing Nick wao
I also practiced drawing Billy a lot :3 Here are some doodles of varying quality
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I was drawing on Magma with my friend !! Check him out if you're into TF2 :P
Yeah that's about it from my end ! If you want , there will be some extra info/ramblings below :3
Tumblr media
RAAAHHHHH I mentioned in the last post that I will be posting during break !! But I didn't !! Cuz I was procrastinating on that full body Billy drawing because of his tattoos !! Now break is over and we're back in exam season !
Also no Halloween post this year .. Sorry ! I thought about drawing one but had no motivation so womp womp :p I'm really bad at keeping up with seasons and drawing stuff on time whoops
Also if I'm gone on April and haven't posted in that time frame , then that means I'm probably busy with concert prep and attending it !!
Tumblr media
Speaking of - I've been thinking about posting some of my art of Void & Aura on here too instead of just keeping it on my Insta – let me know if I should turn this blog more into a multifandom thing or not , I wouldn't mind :p gives me an excuse to gush over my favorite music .. which is mainly MCR and Chase Atlantic at the moment .. uhmm ..
That's about it !! See you guys next post :3

For years, I've been trying to put into words Why I give a single iota about Bendy & the Ink Machine, but it's such a tangled mess that no thread can be seperated -- they're all interwoven in a way that makes it hard to pick them out. The game, overall, makes me miserable, because I can see that there was love put into it, but a lot of it is thrown to the wayside in favor of a story that I think was retroactively improved by the sequel's recontextualizing of it, but is ultimately not worth the price of admission & majorly drops the ball.
It's easy to list things I don't like about it -- the gameplay is sparse, the combat is uninteresting, none of the chapters feel connected, the bugs that assault all my playthroughs & kill my saves are consistent & fill me with dread every time I open the game, the lack of thought in the contents of a chapter (chapter 3's wheel ""puzzle"" & the animatronic Bendy from chapter 4, in specifc, really grind my gears), which speaks to the amateurish & rushed way that the game was crafted -- there's a lot to hate, & it's easy to hate it. But I don't. Despite all that, I am compelled by this game, by what it's trying & failing & trying again to say.
It's really easy to understand why you dislike something. I couldn't have told you much about what I did like, in Ink Machine.
& then, I played Dark Revival. I didn't realize I liked the story of Ink Machine, until I played Dark Revival. It's a better made game, it's just not fucking interesting, to me, because it doesn't have a story worth tuning in to.
#em.txt#negative#idk how better to word this. at no point did i ever consider ink machine to have a good story. it's quite bad.#the devs admitted they spliced in fan ideas & tossed out things as they went in response to the fandom#& it still somehow comes out as more. something. like more substance#& see I didn't think the story was that bad when i played dark revival. & then i rebeat the final bit to unlock#the archives -- much beloved btw. glad they brought them back for the sequel -- & read a character's blurb#& i realized the writers live in an alternate dimension where the ''twist'' they ''put in their game'' actually happened#Everyone i have ever seen play dark revival sees wilson being super telegraphed as evil thr whole game#& gets confused when audrey is like 'okay but he's a good dude though' bc nothing makes that make sense#he does nothing that can be viewed as good except oh wait i need to tag spoils now#batdr spoilers#okay. except for throwing malice in cycle breaker jail bc yeah from Audrey's pov that's prolly a good move#she does try to kill you. that's it though. like it's not that they have a common goal she just decides he's good#from nothing. HE KILLS YOU IN THE FIRST 5 MINS OF THE GAME WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT#she spends a lot of time outbursting at alison bc she's been turned inky & hates it but alison didn't do that she just lives here!!!#she gets more mad at joey for telling her he swooced the ink machine than she does at wilson for trapping her & killing her#& summoning his horde to attack her which causes everyone to become hostile towards her#which btw. he never revokes that even when you defend him & are chilling in his manor#so you're still being attacked & shit even though he's actually like good thoughghhh#& it just makes audrey seem stupid for not realizing the obvious villain is evil & mean to her friends for no reason#i need to stop talking now i am going to explode

the fact that people are still ragging on willy for the migraines and sitting out of the first two or three games, when it was already said he got ocular migraines (aka the man CANNOT SEE AND WAS LOSING VISION) like?? and then he proceeds to be the reason why the leafs even forced a game 7 ??

So just to start, at least this was another serviceable Phoenix finale, even if we shouldn't be here for the finale! It was awesome seeing Truex going out up front for all of about one stage in that beautiful throwback scheme! Okay, now time for the word vomit.
I could go off on this system, but I know for sure that people way more talented than me are going to talk about that way better over the next few weeks. So I'll just say this. The playoffs may be a historically bad system, but it's a system that none of the drivers make and all of them have to play by, and Logano arguably plays by them better than everyone else. Just like how Jimmie ran with the Chase format, Gordon and Earnhardt excelled under the Winston Cup format, and the Petty's somehow won under whatever the hell NASCAR was smoking before that. I'm not even saying Logano's nearly as great as them (especially since this run was so lucky and Mickey Mousey even by playoff standards), but he's perfected playing by his system just as they did with theirs, no matter how much better their systems were. (Except for the pre-Latford systems, those were fucking terrifying.) This playoff format should have been torn down years ago and NASCAR is only hurting itself by keeping it around, but for as long as it's still shifting along, everyone has to win under it. And I think I'm done doubting Logano can do just that until he's written every last signature on his retirement papers, at least in even-numbered years anyway.
And hey, it could have been worse. It could have been Byron and Chevy. I'd rather see a driver win far and square under a crappy-ass system than a driver benefit off (his manufacturer) using the crappy-ass system to manipulate their way into a title. At least that's how I see it.
