One of the main reasons I don't think Renee was originally intended to be terrible IS the fact that the miracle wonder baby is named after her.

Think about it: in the original Twilight, Renee's just kind of flightly. But she canonically tells Bella she doesn't have to exile herself to Forks and if she changes her mind, "You can come home whenever you want―I'll come right back as soon as you need me." She's emailing Bella pretty regularly ("Write me as soon as you get in. Tell me how your flight was. Is it raining? I miss you already. I'm almost finished packing for Florida, but I can't find my pink blouse. Do you know where I put it? Phil says hi. Mom.") and calls when Bella's emails sound 'off.' She shows up at the end when Bella's in the hospital. Sure there's the stuff about "lol Bella's been paying the bills since she was 10" but that could be hyperbole (that's how I originally read it). She's eccentric and forgetful but Bella calls her her best friend and she seems attentive and loving.

Forever Dawn was the original sequel to Twilight that was eventually reworked into Breaking Dawn to account (somewhat) for the stuff that happened in New Moon and Eclipse. The baby was always named Renesmee. She was named that before New Moon or Eclipse existed.

I genuinely think Renee got retconned somewhere along the line. Starts with Eclipse when she doesn't show up for Bella's graduation because of Phil's broken leg (although I still feel like this is mostly an Author Choice -- Bella and Renee already had their moment on Bella's trip to Florida, SM didn't feel like writing another one -- rather than a Character Choice), but accelerates in Life & Death (where Beau and Charlie basically say Renee needed custody because she couldn't care for herself) and Midnight Sun (where she's pretty much canonically a neglectful narcissist with a latent power to get people to do things for her).

But I don't think SM would have named the baby RENEsmeE if Renee had always been intended to be this narcissistic nightmare. I think SM's ideas about Renee changed as she kept writing but that originally she was just the quirky extroverted mom that the serious introverted daughter loved but didn't understand.

Just finished marineford with my mom. She cried (I did too) but that's not the point of this post. What I wanted to share was actually me telling her about the crocodad theory and she was INSTANTLY on board.

She was like "he must have had a love affair with Dragon 😏" and I didn't even say anything she just started shipping dragodile on her own.

Anyways that's it. I just think my mom is iconic.

Feeling insane bc like a week ago I told my mom about part of a fic I'm writing where Hannibal and Will are debating if it is antithetical for a doctor to know how to kill based on the idea that the doctor should know how to kill so he knows what not to do, and my mom has apparently actually been thinking really hard about the concept and I was just stunned to know she thought about it at all after I told her.

But she brought it up completely unprompted today in the car and I was just like "👁️👁️ you've been thinking about that this whole time?" and she said "yeah. I really don't like Hannibal but it's a provocative thought and I'm interested in figuring out how a doctor could acquire the knowledge to kill and actually use it without falling into the pitfalls of a god complex. Anyway at Walmart today-"

MAMA WHAT

watching dead poets society with my mother and i cant make a single queercoded analysis this must be hell

I used to wonder when did Eda get so motherly to her kids

Then after rewatching season 1, even in episode 2 (Witches Before Wizard) after Eda and King made fun of Luz because of the “chosen one” thing, Eda went upstairs to check on Luz right away

And she went into mom mode when she realized that Luz is in trouble

Her mom instinct is always there whether she likes to admit it or not

Chloe: Dandelions symbolize everything I want to be in life.

Rachel: Fluffy and dead from a gust of wind?

Chloe: Unapologetic. Hard to kill. Feral, filled with sunlight, bright, beautiful in a way that the conventional and controlling hate but cannot ever fully destroy. Stubborn. Happy. Bastardous. Friends with bees. Highly disapproving of lawns . Full of wishes that will be carried far after I die.

Max: *scrolling through her phone learning about dandelions* They're also edible.

A few weeks ago a coworker got into an argument with me about whether Hanukkah Harry was a real thing (it is not, her argument was that she saw it on SNL, which... I guess she thought maybe it was parodying a real thing, instead of a bunch of jewish writers using it to parody santa but OK) and she was like real aggressive about it! And then yesterday someone tried to sell me an "advent calendar but for hanukkah" and let me tell you-- hanukkah has a built in count! we literally count every night!

We absolutely do not need anyone else's traditions to legitimize our own and frankly it feels anti semitic! We already only celebrate Hanukkah the way we do because of its proximity to Christmas and Jewish americans wanted to give gifts. Secular German Jews had Christmas trees!! (and look how well that turned out for them. :/ )

I know this is just the commercialism of ANY holiday but honestly there just aren't enough of us to make this truly profitable!!
