ngl, jinx kidnapping cait out of her shower has got to be one of the most psychologically terrifying and disgusting things i’ve seen in arcane.
kidnapping someone from the comfort their home is already bad enough. kidnapping from the comfort of their room is even worse enough. kidnapping someone from their fucking shower while they’re still naked?? ENTERING their shower?? not even having the decency to let them LEAVE the shower and enter their own room first??
this is genuinely one of the worst things jinx has ever done imo, nvm the mass-murder of all those enforcers (bc i mean… who RLY cares that much lmao) bc of just how predatory and evasive it is. never mind a breech of privacy, this is even more extreme than that.
someone attacking you when you’re THAT vulnerable, both literally/physically and emotionally (cait was LITERALLY just thinking abt vi, being very vulnerable w herself and her emotions and was probably going to try and find her again somehow) and being COMPLETELY dehumanized is beyond scarring and terrifying, it’s honestly absolutely unforgivable as far as i’m concerned 😭

I think people sleep on this moment in the Odyssey...
If I'm wrong, not getting full context, or see something that isn't there, feel free to give evidence to explain why.
Here he crept under a pair of bushes, one an olive, the other a wild olive, which grew from the same stem with their branches so closely intertwined that when the winds blew moist not a breath could get inside, nor could the rain soak right through to the earth.
(Book 5, Rieu)
I think this is about Penelope and him.
Obviously, their marriage bed is made from an Olive tree. If it's just about Athena then why are there two mentioned? Why did Homer mention two when he could've just said he took refuge under one? Or a completely different type of tree? Why mention them being intertwined?
One an olive: Penelope, who has been with society and "safe" in Ithaca ("Safe" because of the suitors)
One wild: Odysseus, who has dealt with literal monsters and immortals and has just escaped from Calypso. Literally naked and filthy, a "wild man".
"which grew from the same stem with their branches": Them both being together at first, before being separated.
"so closely intertwined that when the winds blew moist not a breath could get inside, nor could the rain soak right through to the earth.": Despite being separated, they are still "intertwined". Whether you want to think of it as them being likeminded or simply connected, even though they are apart, nothing could get in between them. 🥺
I don't know what else Homer could be referring to other than them.

I’m gonna be honest I don’t understand why Shuro/Toshiro gets as much hate as he does. I can understand why people don’t like him or are put off by a few specific things in particular (not being honest w Laios, his double standard w Falin, and the Izutsumi stuff), but some stuff definitely goes beyond general disinterest or dislike.
I dunno I just don’t think any of his misunderstandings, miscommunications, or assumptions are THAT much worse than the misunderstandings, miscommunications, or misunderstandings of the rest of the cast…

Hyperfixation can actually feel very similar to love

sometimes I end up shipping things just to be contrarian. like not on purpose or anything I just get insulted when people say shit like “these two unrelated characters, who are roughly the same age but have wildly conflicting perspectives on the world, would never work in a relationship.” like okay. you are joyless and unimaginative btw. i’m picturing them in my head rn and it’s the greatest drama of our generation. they’re kissing with tongue. jsyk.

Sewing to kids movies, as you do, and I have toy story 3 on and I'm perpetually confused as to why Andy has to, at 17, remove all of his belongings from his room to go? They ain't moving, only 2 other people live in the big house and they did not mention his sister getting his room even once.
Random mom, if you were gonna cry at the sight of his empty room why'd you force him to gut it even tho he's gonna be home for like, Thanksgiving soon???
