Officially gatekeeping Ben Hope from people who think Charlie should've forgiven him. Charlie doesn't owe Ben shit, especially not after everything Ben did to him.
#ben hope#sebastian croft#heartstopper#heartstopper season 2#heartstopper spoilers#someone give Sebastian his flowers right now#ben is a fascinating character to analyze but christ are people media illiterate#“bad writing is not giving ben a redemption arc or having charlie not forgive him#be fucking for real#don't get me started on “it's bad rep because this queer character is the antagonist and has bad morals '#he's a complex nuanced antagonist who is also queer!! being queer doesn't automatically equate to being a good person!!!!!#bad rep would be pretending that it does#and not allowing characters to 1 have their nuances and to 2 be imperfect and flawed ie essentially removing their humanity#it's a credit to the writing and to Sebastian that as much as you despise him you still urge him to take that step#you want him find that community that could accept him and help him accept himself#ben could be a better person all he has to do is accept himself and step forward#but he doesn't and god that scene is heartbreaking#he has the potential to be better but it's on him to it to take that step maybe one day he will#but it's on him#and if he does become a better person it will never erase what he did to Charlie and I'm so glad the narrative made that explicitly clear#ben is deeply hurt damaged character who has the potential to be better but he has done unforgivable things both are true#and he has long road to becoming a better person if he chooses that road#he still doesn't understand how horrific the things he did to charlie are he apologized by making himself the victim#he has very long road to go but it's more than ok if we don't see it#heartstopper is Charlie's story not Bens#Ben's narrative in Charlie's story is over it's not Charlie's job to hold Ben's hand and walk him into being a better person it's up to Ben#charlies moving forward towards something better#bens standing still clinging to the closet harming himself which causes him to lash out at and hurt everyone around him#even without every horrific thing ben did to charlie it makes sense narratively that this when these characters should part ways#Don't know if i said everything i wanted or said it correctly but anyways I'm out of tags

you've heard of "quiet quitting," now I'd like to introduce you to the next level, The French Work Ethic:
Do exactly what you're paid for and nothing more
Absolutely refuse to be available to contact when you're off the clock
Never prioritize work over your own health, wellbeing, or family because that would be insane, it's just a job.
Have a little glass of wine
Take as long as you feel like for lunch
Deeply understand that work doesn't matter
Make sure your boss knows they're always your second priority ❤️

okay okay I know the point of this is “White people need to put as much effort into learning how to pronounce Black people’s names as they do foreign European names” and 100% I totally agree, absolutely good point
but this tweet becomes hilarious in the context of this clip:
anyways, absolutely put effort into learning how people pronounce their names. just don’t feel bad if it takes you some time to get it right 😅
(also in case you didn’t watch the video it’s “N-SHOO-tee” not “SHOO-tee”)

People are so stupid about snakes. If there's a little black racer chilling outside just leave it alone, you don't have to kill it, it's probably dealing with all your pests for you, jesus christ

y’all just— thinking about how excited Stanley must have been to host the twins— Alex says he smokes cigars but he doesn’t smoke once in the show— has a beer gut but he only drinks sodas in front of the kids— doesn’t swear when they’re around which must have taken INCREDIBLE effort— Stanley Pines, known crook, buying pancake mix at the supermarket and many bottles of syrup— learning to cook basic healthy meals and burning so many of them before he gets it right— buying new sheets, new mattresses— avoiding bunk beds because it reminds him of Ford— looking at the attic room he made wondering “is this enough will they like me”— trying to act aloof at the bus stop so he doesn’t betray the fact that he was there hours early— watching them goof around and thinking of New Jersey beaches— then the first night they’re there, he watches them debate running away and only stay because Mabel shook a magic 8 ball. That must have kept him awake all night.

This has to be an AU already right? I’ve never seen it. I’m doing it. My city now

The angst potential alone haunts me. How long do you think he waited for Ford?? When did it start to sink in that nobody was coming to save him, that nobody would miss him? Would anybody even want him back? How long did it take for his anger, his heartbreak, his grief to turn into acceptance and a belief that this was divine retribution? How long did he work, how many jobs did he take, how much wealth did he accrue, how many brushes with death did he have until he believed he’d “earned” the right to go home and see his brother?? Many such questions. I need to go deeper

I turn to Ares.
Thanks to Tyler Miles Lockett who allowed me to draw inspiration from his ARES piece for page 2! Look at his etsy page it's SICK
⚔️ If you want to read some queer retelling of arturian legends have a look at my webtoon
