I am watching "My Happy Marriage" for the first time and I really want to like it but it's hard to get past the amateur level writing, and the unnecessary magical element. As a period romance it also seems to lack any adherence to the time period it chose, and it's a shame cuz I think it would be far more interesting if it solved it's drama by adhering to the societal rules surrounding marriage and laws at the time.
I'm powering through it but it feels like I'm reading a poorly researched fanfic.

honestly i like my characters with huge glaring personal flaws. “this character is a perfect angel” “this character has never done a single thing wrong in their life” ok you have fun with that. sounds boring to me

Ranting in the tags isn’t enough so I’m going to say one more time that just because Maximus isn’t morally gray doesn’t mean he isn’t complex
#i would even argue!!! that having predominately morally gray characters is actually has been detrimental to storytelling!!#but y’all aren’t ready for that conversation yet#i just think maximus is a perfect example of a “good hero#the kind who isn’t swayed by temptation#doesn’t have a ton of skeletons in the closet#isn’t constantly fighting back his wicked desires#just genuinely does his job wants to do the right thing and loves his home family and emperor#like??? how is he boring for that???#he certainly doesn’t lack in angst and internal conflict and character development!!#people saying maximus has no character development: did we watch the same movie???#just because he doesn’t have to overcome his own evil nature doesn’t mean he isn’t complex or developed#he is a fully fleshed out person#and!!! he does have flaws as a character!#he has blind spots in being too trusting of the security of his position#he believed in the good of rome and didn’t foresee what could happen#he gives in to bitterness and hate for awhile while he’s grieving his family#he literally gives up on life and tries to let himself die multiple times#and those flaws shape some of the things he goes through!#yet beneath all the hardships he remains true to who he is#a noble kind patient logical loving loyal gentleman who treasures the right things and is willing to do whatever he must to stay honorable#something to chew on: maximus is between 30 and 35 years old in gladiator#he’s not an 18 year old kid who’s trying to learn life lessons#he’s already learned most of them!!#he’s already who he wants to be!!!#and dont even get me started on all his little quirks and mannerisms#all the things that make him REAL#gladiator#maximus decimus meridius#text posts#russell crowe

I get the vibe that even before Martin was arrested Malcolm was still kinda an outcast. I think his dad was really his best friend which made everything even worse. So it was even easier for kids who always thought Malcolm was kinda odd and weird to bully him after they found out about his father being a serial killer. And Malcolm must have felt so alone, with his mother dealing with her own grief and Ainsley being much younger and his father gone and everyone seemed to blame him for everything that went wrong and Ugh

Y después de casi 4 meses pude entender que a pesar de mi error, yo no tuve toda culpa. Espere 6 años para poder hacer todo lo que me dijiste que haríamos, te apoyé por 6 años, te di todo el amor y comprensión que pude por 6 largos años, me estanque para poder vivir la vida junto a ti. Y cuando más necesitaba que entendieras que también soy humana, que también me equivoco y que puedo arrepentirme, simplemente me crucificaste, me abandonaste, comprendiendo la magnitud del error que cometí, solo me culpe a mí. Me sentí inútil todo este tiempo, culpable e inservible. No te importo si volvía mi depresión, no te importo si yo quería matarme (casi lo logro), no te importo ni un carajo todo lo que dejé por ti. Me desvalorizaste al punto de borrarme de tu vida, borraste 6 años, me bloqueaste, borraste todo de mí de tu vida, me humillaste, me trataste de lo peor para estar con alguien más 2 meses después de dejarme. Intenté volver porque traté de darte el espacio necesario para que pudieras estar tranquilo, pero al final todo fue inútil y en vano, solo recibí repudio de ti. Y siento tanto el estar así por ti, tú, que jamás me diste nada, solo palabras bonitas y promesas rotas, tus te amo eran solo de comodidad, de zona de confort, nunca fue real, porque a mí no me vengan con “el que falla lo saco de mi vida”, porque si me amabas realmente no hubieses querido sacarme así de golpe. Jamás me burlé de ti, jamás te mentí después de eso. Si, cometi dos veces un error distinto, pero como un demonio, como quería arreglar lo nuestro. Solo tenías que decirme que había alguien más, y que no te costó soltarme, todo hubiese sido más fácil, me hubieses ahorrado la humillación, pero obvio tú querías que te rogara, tú querías alimentarte de mi dolor para seguir destruyendome. Ay dios! Que dolor este que me haces pasar, no era suficiente con la vergüenza y la culpa que quizás merecía, ahora también tengo que lidiar con ser reemplazada y borrada de la vida de alguien que era mi todo. Sé que lo arruine, pero no merecía tanto dolor, no merecía querer morir por alguien que no me ama y quizás jamás lo hizo en realidad.
No quiero hundirme otra vez por alguien que no le importo

I like that Yellowjackets went the "actually, the supposed mental patient is, in fact, a prophet" route.
It's the true horror for Lottie, the Wilderness being real. It's something inside, yes, but it's also a mystical force. It's everywhere. It's the true God (well, Goddess). It's so poetic, I love it. I could write a litany about it. The show executes the "actually, insanity would have been a comfort" trope so well.
I think, the Wilderness is a Lovecraft-level eldritch primordial entity, but folktale instead of sci-fi.

A local artist I have been vaguely resenting/envying because she does something I wish I was doing (makes giant objects, e.g. huge lollipop, six foot long paintbrush, for window displays and permanent installations that companies are presumably paying her a decent amount to do) turns out to not, as I thought, be like 25, and is in fact about to turn 40. Embarrassed how much the resentment has retreated in light of that fact

actually it's kind of funny how people will say Alex's fatal flaw is that he 'doesn't ask for help' and that it's his determination to handle things on his own that leads to his deterioration and eventual death when his whole introduction to the present-day timeline was a very literal cry for help that simply went ignored
#N posts stuff#like even if you think alex was lying throughout the entirety of season 2 and he was waiting from the Moment jay showed up#JUST to kill him (Which again i don't think makes much sense when he could have killed Tim & Jay immediately instead of#breaking Tim's leg. anyway) EVEN IF alex spent that whole time lying it doesn't actually change the fact that he would have at least#been Pretending to Ask For Help and if he wasn't lying then he was Literally Asking For Help and it doesn't Actually matter#what intention Alex had because the text is Ambiguous about Alex's honesty during season two; what isn't ambiguous is the way#other characters (specifically Jay) respond to him; like yeah - S2 Brian/Tim were never in one million years going to help Alex with shit#so sort of any argument that brings up Tim as someone who asks for/offers help is borderline meaningless in this era of the series#Jay had the 'opportunity' to help Alex (and i'll get back to that in a sec) but DIDN'T - Jay wasn't Interested in actually offering Alex#'help' bc Jay is ultimately curious about Answers and 'Offering Help' and 'Getting Answers' are two Wildly conflicting goals#Jay thinks Alex has answers and when Alex doesn't Offer these 'Answers' to Jay on a silver platter Jay gets pissed off and paranoid#and starts Stalking Alex bc he thinks it's 'Suspicious' that Alex won't give him the Answers (that Alex probably doesn't Actually have)#ANYWAY. ultimately this post is about how it's absurd when people argue#that individual character choices could have made a difference in the way this series played out - specifically wrt Alex#because EVERYONE in this WHOLE series are being affected by influences outside of their control ; including Brian Tim and Jay#so it's silly when people are like 'if ALEX had just made a different choice For Himself this could have all been avoided' WRONG.#bc Ultimately there's not really a way to 'help' someone else out of this situation - Tim tried and failed Repeatedly#the comics proved he even failed with Jessica - like MH isn't a horror situation where you can kill the big bad#'getting help' is a meaningless argument - what would successfully helping or getting help even look like? anyway.#the sub argument of this post is that Alex's biggest 'sin' is that he doesn't perform emotions the way other people want him to#like Alex is a character with a kind of flat affect - instead of LOOKING scared or grieved he LOOKS bored or angry#and everyone judges him based on that - so Alex is 'Suspicious' he's 'Lying' he's 'Guilty' but all of these deductions are predicated#on the belief that Alex isn't reacting to his circumstances the way a 'Normal' person would - so it MUST all be an act and so he's guilty#so everyone treats him like he's guilty until the end of season two when he's like 'Fuck it FINE i'll be guilty then' and so it goes#not a self-fulfilled prophecy but being Cornered Into a prophecy and then Blamed for it - SAD. anyway

Just saw a comment on YouTube that said "It baffles me so many people didn't kill Astarion when he tries to cut your throat upon meeting him". I have a few things to say about this.
Astarion has his reasons. He has been in constant survival mode for two centuries, and now he's been kidnapped and saw you running around free reign on a ship. Of course he'd be suspicious of you!
He's literally not going to cut your throat in this scene. He's threatening you for information, and immediately puts the dagger away when he realizes you were also kidnapped.
I don't kill potential companions unless I absolutely have to. I'm a "collect as many as I possibly can" kind of person.
Why do you care so much about what other people do in their games? It sounds like your gameplay style is dreadfully boring, but to each their own.
Last, but not least, all of the best FICTIONAL love stories start out with threats of violence. 💕

low/no empathy is Minorly Othering in terms of interests (in my experience) because almost everyone i know prefers fiction over nonfiction, because it's more interesting and easier to digest,
but prefer the opposite for the same reasons. nonfiction is MUCH easier for me to parse through. i stress myself out a lot whenever i try to imagine a characters thoughts and feelings, and i end up usually just misunderstanding entirely. oftentimes it's so frustrating i just put a book down and never try reading it again. i understand rhetorical devices, messages, themes, symbolism,,, i understand the book on a technical level when it comes to the artistry of how it's written. but i, for the life of me, in the moment, simply cannot fathom a character's thoughts and feelings
comics are only a little easier bcs they have added help of drawn depictions of thoughts and feeling, but even then it can still be hard. i just can't enjoy the same literature many ppl are into just cus i find textbooks n stuff more easy to read
