#angelica green

[iamfarfromvibingrightnow]

you ever think about how wesley is literally the exact big brother figure that angelica wanted in josh and how she was just looking in the wrong place because wesley actually understands what its like to feel like an outsider and unwanted and the desperation to keep the person that made you feel wanted and the great lengths you go to for that person even though you know what youre doing is wrong or are you like normal

Josh wheeler: the older brother who somehow became the leader of the other three and has no idea how he did it

Wesley Fists: the middle child who tries to keep the peace the gay middle child also likes to get high

Eli cardashyan: the cocky, sassy 2nd youngest sibling he's a shit head but the other 3 love him also just stumbled across the others and decided to stick around but if asked he says he's being kept around by force

Angelica Green: the youngest sister who lives for setting things on fire and loves being a problem for others says she hates the other 3 but would protect them if they were in trouble

[froggos-are-superior]

The duality of Daybreak will never cease to amaze me. I mean, on one hand, the whole show is basically just a giant shit post. But on the other hand, it touches on some really deep and personal topics. The kind of show that has you crying laughing, if you will.

They'll have this scene with Josh where he's like

I GOTTA CUT OFF MY FINGER MAN I DONT WANNA BE A ZOMBIE

And then Angelica walks in and is like

WHAT THE FUCK MAN THIS ISNT THE WALKING DEAD, THE ZOMBIE BITES DO NOTHING

And Josh is just staring at his severed finger like man oh man.

Topics

The entire show is filled with scenes like that but it also addresses things such as

Bullying

Morality

Complex parent relationships

The struggle to fit in

Mental illness

Homophobia

Loneliness

Grief

Sacrifice

A breakdown of the manic pixie dream girl trope

Realizing that maybe you aren't a good person

Having to choose the lesser of two evils

Having to choose between being true to yourself and being the person everyone wants from you

And one of the best parts is that, yes, they do fuck up. A character makes a decision and maybe it was the wrong one. Maybe actions do have consequences. Sometimes they learn from those mistakes. Sometimes they don't. I like this. It makes it feel like an accurate depiction of a human being.

They show everyone as fucking idiots, but every episode has a different character's backstory, narrated by themselves. It makes you realize that even if you think someone's a dick, sometimes there are things going on in their lives that you just can't know about.

Episodes

(Some of who narrates each episode for context):

Josh- Josh vs. the Apocalypse Part 1, Schmuck Bait!, Post Mates

One of the things most apparent from Josh's perspective, is that he loves Samaira Dean. All we ever see are good things about her. But as the plot drags on, it starts to become apparent that maybe Josh's narration is unreliable, warped.

Angelica- The Slime Queenpin of Glendale, CA

Angelica's story is a bit funny, bordering on concerning. It's clear however, that she didn't have the best childhood and all she really wants is a friend, or someone who won't leave her behind.

Wesley- Homecoming Redux or My So Called Stunt Double Life

I could go on forever about Wesley's episode, but the main dilemma is that Wesley needs to pick between two people he loves. Sam advises him to ignore both options- to pick himself instead. It really makes you think that he did too. But in the end, he made a decision and now has to live with the guilt of what he did. Present-day, he's faced with a similar situation once again, and he doesn't know how to make the right decision.

Ms. Crumble- Canta Tu Vida

Ms. Crumble was a tragic character. Her backstory reflected that as well. She had so much character growth as the series went on and I was in tears during the finale.

I honestly have no idea what I was originally going for here but at this point it's pretty much just a Daybreak themed mess. Bon appetit.

Part 6! (Included the bonus from the profiles post! )

Sorry it’s taking me so long to do these. I have ideas but it’s so tedious to execute them! But I’m excited for the next part so yay! Im actually starting to include posts based on my irl/text convos so yay! (Also Monica totally put the divas up to posting the Drake thread lol)

I’m also open to questions about my AU such as ages and who’s dating who and headcanons and what not!

Adults had one stupid job: to teach us how to be good people. But adults are the most selfish assholes of all! And the worst part is, we don’t get our chance to grow up and fuck up the world ourselves!

[addaerontruther]

i've pretty much given up on house of the dragon and will only be watching to support clinton as addam because the show is all bad, most of the fanbase is worse, and there seems to be no end in sight, but daeron is my baby so i have to SAY SOMETHING

there's no way daeron can be criston's bastard without completely destroying his character and everything about him. i understand hbo doesn't respect anything that makes the targaryen's special (having an actual bond with the dragons, magic, being able to control them, etc) but you're either taking away the biggest part of his character or destroying the lore. why would you do either. just leave him out completely.

and not for nothing, but imagine spending the first part of your life listening to your mother, brothers, grandfather, and apparent illegitimate father preaching about how horrible your (fellow) bastard nephews are simply because of a birth circumstance you share with them and then being sent away forever? the resentment, the pain, the loneliness???? he's already an incredibly isolated and tragic character, whyyy would you want to strip him one the only period of familial happiness he ever knew?

no one who appreciates daeron as a character could want that. honestly, no one that appreciates any of these characters can want that? you love alicent but you want every word that leaves her mouth to act as a knife in her youngest son? you love aegon and/or aemond and you want their younger brother to remember the unkind things they said about people of his own birth rather than literally anything else?

idk. it's a terrible idea for so many reasons but as someone that genuinely loves daeron and sees what george's intentions with him were on the page, it's so upsetting to think about them being so careless with him to get the small percentage of audience members watching with their brains shut off to say "oooo" for 30 seconds and then forget about it forever lmao

Overview

One plant that is easily confused with poison hemlock, the stem of Angelica is all purple with three leaflets on the stems that are divided 3 to 5 times. In Iowa, the Angelica atropurpurea species grows and has very similar characteristics. Angelica archangelica can be found all over the northern hemisphere including subarctic regions such as Lapland and Greenland. It is also a popular garden variety. It has a musky odor and a sweet taste, though if you are not sure do not taste as Hemlock is extremely deadly. This is a biannual plant, meaning that it only produces foliage in the first year and the second it produces a flower and goes to seed, dying back once they fall.

When it does flower, it’s usually in May and through to late August and early September. The flowers are semi-round umbels with tiny white, yellow or green flowers. it’s best to harvest when they are mature in late summer or early fall, gathering seeds in dry weather. You will easily find it in the same environment as poison hemlock, namely rich, wet soil.

Folklore

-Archangel Michael-

Upon the onset of Christianity in Europe, a monk was visited by the archangel Michael who revealed to him the curative powers of the plant for the plague that was wrecking havoc on the local village. This also earned it the name “Holy Ghost Root.”

According to Catholic Tradition, St. Michael has four main responsibilities: 1) combat Satan, 2) escort the faithful to heaven after their death, 3) to be a champion of Christians and the Church, and 4) to call humans from life for judgement.

Uses in Witchcraft

Angelica can be used in talismans to ward off evil and sickness. It is a protector, like Saint Michael, so can be hung, added to sachets and pouches, made into a wash, or a myriad of other workings. Try using it as a way to help ghosts cross over or ease ancestors into their afterlife.

Safety Notes

High doses of angelica can cause increased photosensitivity, so it is recommended that sunbathing and other exposure to ultraviolet radiation be limited while using angelica regularly.

Due to its furanocoumarin content, angelica can cause photo sensitivity or photodermatitis. Do a patch test before using as a tea, and wear gloves while harvesting, especially if you are already sensitive to the sun.

Conclusion

Angelica is one that can often be found in metaphysical stores, but if you can find it near you for free, why buy it? You can connect with this plant in a much deeper way when you can watch it through it's life cycle and chat with it as you pass by. Have you seen angelica around?
