Corphyeus did feel like a mustache twirling villain at the end of DAI but at least they gave him that cool speech "I saw the throne of heaven and it was empty! God is dead and we killed him! I will lead the flock back to the righteous path now that I know the truth™" but Elgarn'an and Ghilian'nan?? Their whole raison d'etre is 'blighted gods do evil shit' that's it. Meredith had a red lyrium Idol driving her insane, but that is not the whole reason she becomes evil. She had to witness her 7 yr mage sister become possessed by a demon and burn down her house killing her whole family in the process. That causes her to follow the Templar Order, gives her a very negative outlook on mages, and makes her strict in her governance of Kirkwall's circle because she believes she is doing the right thing by protecting mages from themselves. The idol just speeds up the process of her become more and more paranoid about mages, and one can argue, she wasn't entirely wrong about the mage situation in Kirkwall (see crazy serial killer necromancer running around for two whole acts). If they weren't going to do anything interesting with Elgarn'an and Ghilian'nan then they should've dropped them and focused solely on Solas.

#dont get me started on the executors plot point it adds nothing to the story and takes away a lot of complexity from the world of thedas #anything epler has had abt it sounds like cope!!#personally i feel DA games work better for me when the stakes are lower DAI was kinda pushing it but the way u act as a herald of a prophet #made it work it and the way the inquistor looks sounds and acts like some one no younger than 27 feels more believable #that they can be a leader of men BUT rook??#comes off as very goofy 19yr old giving life advice he picked up from reading how to win friends and influence ppl #the saddest part of all this is the elven gods couldve been SO interesting if they wrote the religious and political implications for it #cuz it was very weird posing as Neve's elven man slave when infiltrating the venatori cult #as they worship Elgarnan in all his pointy eared glory as a god meanwhile im just standing there?? second class citizen?? hello???#datv critical #datv #da posting

my take on Edward and Lydia. The graphic novels pulling me back a little wont lie …

#taz balance #lydia edward taz #edward taz #lydia taz #whatever their tag is #idk about the accent colors but the skin tone hair is just always how i imagined them #i love the adaptation but theres a few choices i dislike like wonderland hvaing a clown theme instead of the gameshow feel #i like me a circus but the tv host personas just worked so much better for them also SORRY I hate the green skin so bad #i apologise to the green elf fans i cant stand it #also i have a vague memory of griffin saying they were dark elves that i probably made up but its just how ive always imagined them #also very minor nitpick wish the arc in the novel couldve had one more round so taako got to lose his beauty #its a minor nitpick just cause in the grand scheme of things its not very important and its brought up once #but that conversation with kravitz is so dear to me #tis whatever tho #is it obvious i like using tumblr tags a lot

they shoulda let us see rook's reunion with their companions right when they rescued them from the fade prison. cowards.

#mage talks #da4 spoilers #like... you mean rook was such a good leader that not only did they bring the team together to finally defeat an elven god #but when another elven god trapped their leader in the fade #they all were able to band together on their own and work without rook bc they were all so determined to bring them back????#a team that couldnt even operate cohesively when it was formed despite the fact they were all skilled professionals in their fields #a team that needed someone like rook to bring them together on a personal level as well as professional #a team that clearly could do things on their own now didnt even think for a moment to go after elgarnan and solas without their leader #because they could have. they couldve just written rook off as dead and thought they needed to save the world for the people theyd lost #like god rook was truly their linchpin and the only time we feel that and see it clearly is in that moment when they hear their team #and we just get a cut to the lighthouse meeting #that would have been such an incredible and emotionally charged reunion and we just got the fucking huddle #and the varric thing gets a side mention from... idk i think 2 people?? maybe???#and the time loss i thought they made it seem like it was days but other people are saying it was weeks????#idk i should go to sleep for real for real

Hi urgent question, what does it mean when the friend that left you five years ago remakes the playlist she made you for your eighteenth birthday with the description, "For all that which I needed to leave behind. Tall tales (which was the name of the playlist she made for your birthday), great mistakes, and the time of my life." And another playlist with the description, "My life as it is! Taller tales than ever before." And posts them both to the Spotify she knows you can see? What does it mean? Hello what does this mean??!? I need someone to please present the correct answer because I don't know what to think or feel but I can't stop looking at the playlists and crying, and I'm at work so that's not great, so I just need an answer please.

#i cant ask her because we are no contact and have been for most of those five years #i dont know if its a way to broach breaking no contact or if its just her eay of coping #with the situation st hand #but then she couldve posted them privately if she didnt want me to see them #so did she want me to see them? it seems so because she referenced the playlist she made me and one of them is a remake #so it seems like a message for me. ehats the message?#that she wants to come back? that she never wants to come back and i need to get used to that?#that shes just fucking with me? but shes not cruel like that #she was never cruel like that. she wouldn't post them just to hurt me #and the description of the second playlist makes it seem like an attempt at connection. right?#like a view into her life #but the description on the first one sends a different message #i feel like im standing in front of an imaginary conspiracy board and wuickly letting it consume me #in a way that if i was a detective i would be taken off the case for getting too close #ive been trying to analyze the lyrics of the song choices and what they could mean #some of them on the playlist thats a remake of my birthday playlist are from the original birthday playlist #but when she sent me that birthday playlist she said the order mattered #and now the order is different and there are some different songs so does the order still matter?#if it does. which im sure it does because i knew her. then what does it mean?#im the meme 'what does it mean? what does it all mean??#this time of year and also every day is hard with missing her and such #but i thought i was doing a little better. getting iver losing her. internalizing that shes not coming back #and then i checked her spotify and found the damn fucking playlists and now im spiraling #and i just wish i could talk to ger about it but i cant break no contact #i feel like the guy in paper towns. but in that one the girl didnt want to be found. she left the clues to show she was alright #but didnt want to be found by the guy that cared enough to put the clues together #i am at work and spiraling and trying not to cry in front of coworkers but i cant stop going iver the playlists and #trying to analyze them #can someone please tell me what they mean beyond a shadow of a doubt so i can breathe again?

can russia and north korea just nuke us already this is hopeless

#sorry to be so fatalistic on main i just have zero faith in the american public atp #i just rly wanted to believe that more americans couldve used this opportunity to prove to the rest of the world that we arent all a bunch #of sensationalist/conspiracy-driven/aggressively braindead/violent/bigoted alt-right lunatics #& i never had much faith in kamala & walz to begin with obviously im incredibly cynical towards these status quo gatekeepers and the #downright impotence of the neoliberal democratic party #but this wouldve been an easy swerve away from dozens MORE of horrible awful inhumane policies that will ultimately vanquish #the quality of life for the entire american working class like myself and our already pisspoor education system and our lousy #climate change policies and impossible living standards #but no unfortunately there is no way in hell for americans to prove even a modicum of intelligence or worth we're all basically suicidal #and despite my own immense yank bashing tendencies and complete disdain for our government i really wanted this country & my ppl to defy #our own reputation of being so fucking stupid and backwards i really did. in the tiniest little place of my heart was legitimate hope #& a tiny bit of patriotism thats now been squashed completely & this was just another large-scale international humiliation that we legit #voted that guy BACK IN after everything that has happened the last four even eight years. its unbelievable.#again obviously i dont like kamala but it still wouldve been a grand opportunity to stall against what the gop is already destroying #and with push and shove we could have made slight progress forward as a country and try to protect our social programs #be it as flawed as they are and with enough support we could have strengthened them a little. make drugs less expensive. continue forward #with clean energy decreasing our use of fossil fuels even more.#protect our education system so the up and coming generations could receive higher standards of learning than what the rest of us had #NO ABSOLUTELY NOT. im too poor to continue living here and im too poor to fucking leave !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#SORRY THIS WAS EXTREMELY EXTREMELY EXTREMELY LONG THANK U FOR READING IF U DID MY BRAIN FEELS LIKE MUSH RIGHT NOW SO I DONT KNOW HOW #INTELLIGIBLE THIS MAY OR MAY NOT BE #and if this makes anyone mad @ all then ill just delete it cuz by god i dont need more grief and self hatred !#txt

Still thinking about this bc being a shitty teacher isn't the same as being evil and yet- *gets shot*

#Porter discourse bc good god if theres ever a character that I could write at length about their character assassination its him #Porter becoming comically evil for a bit I can handle but then the grooming being tacked on is like horrific in a way thats like.. okay #but why did that have to happen??#and I don't think brennan meant anything malicious by it y'know? it was more like 'hey! Emily would LOVE this & she'll still play fig!'#And yes the seeds were planted in sophomore year with the nightmare kings crown and Ragh #But we also saw how he was when working with other students and how much he cared for Ragh zelda and Fig like he was proud of his students #HE BECAME PROUD OF GORGUG #So to find out he was basically just grooming Kip is like- and then the seriousness of the grooming isnt addressed #its not handled with the level of seriousness like when the table realizes Bobby Dawn groomed Sandra Lynn #It's played as a bit and it feels like are we eating our cake and then having it too by making him a bumbling idiot in the finale when #he was shown as clever enough to fly under the radar except to fig who in the meta emily kept playing up the porter is evil bit bc no one #else believed it and it was funny to play up fig being extra sus of him #but then its also like okay we dont care about the grooming now also because it was kipperlily who they were beefing with- its just?#I wish the grooming never because part of it and I feel like thats the thing that bothers me about junior year and Porter specifically #AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH #Porter cliffbreaker #not main d20 tagging this bc i know I'll look fucking insane but I do think porter as the big bad couldve been cleaner and it made me lose #a little faith in the storytelling of FH and made me not want a senior year #it kinda turned me off from d20 like i just have been less interested and the last 3 episodes are a massive reason why #and now theres too much shit left hanging so its like.. we kinda need a senior year but its like.. ehh.

thinking about cinderlion kits and how hollytufts reaction to flywhisker and snaptooth leaving to become kittypets was to aggressively call them traitors

#i speaku #rotating these six guys in my brain #i know i said i wish cinderlion had way smaller litters and i still feel the same way now but i can still think about them #w a dynamic of having drifted apart due to the shit theyve been going thru as well as the distance bet the two litters bc of age and stuff #nd spotfur feeling so ostracized from her fam bc of 'gestures at everything'#im ngl the first lotter really genuinely are kinda just there 😭#litter*#i wonder if you couldbe just made them be one singular cat and it wouldve worked better #thats an interesting dynamic i think... a one kitten litter being excited over the prospect of having siblings when cinder n lion announce #the news and getting devastated when two of the second litter decide to leave #maybe they n spotfur couldve beeb close once but the hypothetical only child just xouldnt get rid of those feelings of betrayal and anger #that their sibs left just grew very distant bc of that #i like sibling dynamics have i mentioned that yet

My mom always complaining about how I never spend time with her.... ma'am the last time we had a serious conversation you told me you thought i was making traumatic memories of my childhood up just to demonize you

#i straight up asked her ''do you really think im a liar? do you think you raised me to be a liar?'' and she said ''yeah i guess so'' 😭#literally would rather live in fantasy land than have a conversation where she takes accountability for hurting me #its always bc she had a hard life and couldve made mine harder and everything im upset about is because of a man #aint no man tried to drag me by my hair out of the room because i refused to stop talking about how uncomfortable i was with a violent man #moving in! nuh uh girl that was YOU. and aint no man busted down my door on multiple occasions to beat my ass for #*checks notes* not wanting to continue an emotional conversation after i had already started crying and wasnt able to communicate #no sir that was YOU. that was all you and aint no man was even in the house during those times #and definitely no man ever told me that i was manipulating you and being selfish for telling you that letting a man move back in after he #broke into our house and attacked you made me feel unsafe and made my life worse.#no man brought up how traumatizing ur childhood was and then threatened to send me to live with ur rapist daddy #when i said id like to spend the summer with my dad if my only alternative was living with you and a man who threw knives at your head #and tried to strangle you several times #no man fucking did those things to me. no man ever told me i wasnt allowed to be traumatized by his violent behavior bc he had it worse as a #kid. YOU said that to me. many times. every time i ever brought up my pain to you. and you still fucking do that #you sprayed windex into your mothers eyes when you were 23 during a fight but if i start yelling after you push me to talk to u #and then insult me when im honest then suddenly its ''i Never acted as bad as you did and my parents were so much worse''#no. i fucking remember girl. i was alive for that. you were a nightmare and your parents deserved it #but you werent always a peach to me and when i talk about that its not an insult its the fucking truth #and i cant come to meet you where youre at because youre no longer in the thick of a traumatic and dangerous situation #you and your man are settled down and u felt safe enough to marry him and you run the house and earn all the money #and you've done a lot of work to heal yourself and be better but that man and i had to meet you were you were at when you were at your worst #in order for you to feel safe and secure enough to start that process. and now this is Not me at my worse #i shielded and protected you from my very worst because i always felt like if you saw your kid coming undone it would hurt you #but if you cant even meet me in the middle now then we cant have the relationship you want. it would be a lie #it would be a lie and it would be a betrayal of myself. bc i cant be honest with you right now #every time i try you take it personally and we get into a fight. so dont act like my distance and privacy #is some sort of slight against you or a punishment. i am trying to keep the peace

maybe i do need to go to therapy bc its probably not good that ive been living on autopilot and the last 7 years went by so fast but also bc i was deliberatly Wanting the time to go by to put as much space between me and the events of 2017-2020 as possible all while somewhat knowing my young adulthood was slipping me by and now both my teenage years and my early 20s are gone and i still feel like my 19th birthday was yesterday yeesh!!

#i do feel like im out of time completely and its kind of.making me insane bc its not fair lol #life could be worse! but it couldve been a lot better too #like on one hand i think i had a normal reaction to exceptionally traumatic shit happening to me with no support system.#and everything that happened was caused by shit out of my control and i Know that bc i spent my teen years specifically working hard to Be #in control #like i did make the choice to give up sure. but that was when absolutely every effort had been exhausted #and theres only so much a human being can take especially when i was so young #but on the other hand!! even when i found a support system and things are better now than they were #i still feel like im trapped perpetually in this Waiting period #waiting for life to begin Waiting for an OPPORTUNITY to make my life begin already #and no effort on my part yields anything so i have no choice but to WAIT #but im TIRED. of waiting #im sick of seeing videos of people way younger than me making art ive always dreamed id have made by now #theres also this invisable wall i have always had built around me that is Impenetrable and i keep hitting it #and its gotta be me but it really feels like the universe has some unseeable chains on me which aounds so stupid #but im not allowed to get passed it #im way past the point of even being capable of showing the agony it causes me now like its just a dull joke #ANYWAY the fact ive typed all this makes me think ok. yeah maybe it is time to talk to someone LOL #carry on im fine this happens to me all the time. helps to get it written out at least

The fact that Dawn Summers' favorite sandwich is salami + peanut butter (5x19) will never not be funny to me because the monks did that to her ON PURPOSE!!!!!!! Like why??

They were trying to create a human teenager and in so doing they gave her so many normal teenage qualities like an interest in keeping a diary, being moody, and a need to slam doors and act out and screech at an impossibly high pitch when she's upset which is all fine, totally normal teen behavior

But then they also decided she should be a kid who is gonna get bullied every day at lunch by eating weird sandwiches and liking anchovies on pizza (7x07). And on top of that they made her clumsy and socially awkward and fairly dorky with her mother/daughter book club membership and I swear Dawn thinks her best friend is Janice but she's actually closer to her own family and Buffy's friends and just??? She's already a key, is that not hard enough??

The monks went into create-a-sim and made Dawn Summers. THEY COULD HAVE MADE HER REMOTELY NORMAL AND CHOSE NOT TO I'M????? I mean to be fair she is made out of Buffy who also isn't at all remotely normal AND I adore Dawn exactly as she is and being "normal" is a stupid and overrated concept of course OF COURSE. Seriously, all the love for Dawn being her funky self but like the monks could've cut poor Dawnie a little slack I'm just saying. A hell god is looking for her they could at least make middle school surviveable

#dawn summers #btvs #buffy the vampire slayer #tuserjana #i know theres a chance that the spell couldve just crafted dawn but im choosing to believe otherwise #that one monk tells buffy very clearly that they made everyones memories of dawn and that feels purposeful to me #like it wasnt just random #they crafted those #also theres that whole part where glory thinks tara is the key and says she likes all the 'detail work' the monks did #that they gave the key 'quirks foibles passions'#so even glory is under the impression that the monks didnt just cast a spell and things happen #they created an entire human being #the monks went into create a sim and made dawn summers

Disclaimer im just processing some thoughts im not cancelling the show

have almost thoughts about how i find the like....narrative on here that if you have chronic "zebra" conditions youd want a doctor like House and wouldnt sue for malpractice bc at least youd have a doctor that cares about whats wrong with you but lets take it one step further. so often he does NOT give a shit about the patient and actively endangers them frequently with his god damn heoric era of medicine approach? non zero amount of times he gets a diagnosis but it comes too late, or he gets a diagnosis after their first wrong 3 guesses of the episode shut down the patients kidneys and they either have to get a transplant or they are just, doomed due to other preexisting conditions etc? idk. i know ppl are almost certainly exaggerating and just letting off steam about the very real failures of our current medical systems and the ableism baked in and All That Shit. i just think its weird how ppl romanticize House who STILL, FREQUENTLY, MULTIPLE EPISODES will actively dismiss shit in the exact way that is a problem in our current system, especially when hes being Forced Against His Will To See Clinic Parients, he loves to be dismissive as fuck of symptoms and if he was a real doctor i think he'd be fucking 50/50 on cases he Notices Something To Dig Into vs cases he dismisses as an Anxious Hysterical Woman Who Wants Attention, the only reason he's Right so frequently in his snap judgements is cos it reinforces the narrative. its like a crime drama that has the mastermind serial killer masterfully using "loopholes" and lawyering up all sneaky and dodging Justice and if only our poor little cop protags were allowed to do A TEENY BIT of Justified Police Brutality, they could Save Lives!

and like sometimes in the show they will have a patient die despite his efforts to narratively punish him. not to mention, i think its been at least mildly brought up and glossed over how much they absolutely do not think about insurance costs for these ppl for the insane amount of tests that find nothing and Wrong Medications To Force A Diagnosis they use? i think it was brought up once in the episode following a day in the life of cuddy where she had to fight a lawsuit bc a guys insurance like didnt cover his thumb being reattached but chase reattached it anyway while in surgery cos it was The Right Thing To Do and the guy didnt have the money to cover it and the insurance wouldnt pay unless he sued the hospital or whatever. thats like the only time its come up. whereas like frequently the doctor I go to for osteopathic manipulation tries to check in with me and make sure im covered by insurance etc and that im not going to go broke or get buried in medical debt seeing her.

idk. just some Thoughts. not a defense of our current system and all the flaws it enables and enforces etc. his approach to medicine is really reminiscent to me of what I know of the Heroic Era Of Medicine which i dont...love? and hes framed on here as being an asshole but would kill for his patients to get them a diagnosis etc. but hes definitely extremely paternalistic to patients ? and despite some good clippable lines about ableism and being against eugenics, it honestly feels like his stance on that is kind of a toss up.

#toy txt post #AGAIN THIS IS NOT A DEFENSE OF OUR CURRENT SYSTEM NOR AM I TRYING TO 'CANCEL' THE SHOW #i am simply processing some Thoughts about it #and wishing better doctors upon all of you when you need them #doctors who Listen To You and who Put In The Effort and The Work to figure out why you feel like shit #who also arent calling you slurs the whole time and throwing random fucking medications at you that destroy your liver or whatever #but give them data. idk. like sometimes in the show it does seem like they need to do that! like the patient is actively dying and the risk #to info ratio is such that it makes sense. other times its like you like definitely couldve done other things to rule shit out but you #needed to fit this whole patient arc into a single episode #not to mention i feel like any doctor who approached shit even close to the way he does would Not have his success rate #no matter how smart the payoff would Not be worth it bc theyd kill more patients. they would not be getting lucky everytime. real life does #not have a plot narrative to fulfill if house treated you he'd just fucking kill you #also one more disclaimer I AM AWARE DR GREGORY HOUSE IS A FICTIONAL MADE UP BLORBO CHARACTER #AND THAT MOST OF THE PPL JOKING ABOUT THIS DO NOT NEED THE REMINDERS OR WARNINGS OR DISCLAIMERS ABOUT HIM ETC ETC #IM SIMPLY THINKING ABOUT HIM AND THIS SHOW AND REAL LIFE #and am only a little bit uncomfortable w the level to which his approach is romanticized on tumblr dot com. but i understand why and like #fair enough #anyway watching house MD is like a sawbones episode displaced in time and Very Worrying #i just have the finale of s7 left and then i will start s8 #and i am dreading the aphobia episode. but it cannot be worse than the horrific intersexism and transphobic he's put on display right #right?#i guess its probably not worse in that from what ive seen on tumblr. he is being aphobic to an adult and not a teenager. so #also house is infuriating bc if you remove the doctor bit. i have met this man so many times and i want to kill him ♡#the guy who is just allowed to stampede through life being a total ass with no pushback or accountability and terrorize people #hes a bad employee and a worse boss #okay turning reblogs off on this cos i dont trust ppl. i think i have replies restricting to mutuals too so #that way this doesnt break containment and get misinterpreted

i miss liking helluva boss

#makes me so so sad seeing viv run it into the ground with shitty writing #had so much potential. i loved it for so long..#honestly even stolitz couldve worked but. they went the route of suddenly having stolas be in love with blitz #and making blitz out to be in the wrong and stolas this never wrong sad owl boi and manipulating the fans into thinking it was always true #fucking hate it. fucking hATE IT.#if they had just. fucking. had them sllllowly develop feelings for each other over the course of the show #and SHOW HOW MESSY it is with their arrangement #maybe it couldve been something. but NOOOO.#i hated the full moon i hated apology tour i hated mastermind and the only part of sinsmas i liked was octavia #i love octavia. her song made me cry. shes so real man #idk if im even going to watch season 3 #maybe i will pirate it #why did they make millie PREGNANT. hate it. gross. ick #i never understood the hatred for viv's work but now i do. maybe i just had to mature some #still seems a bit overblown and parasocial at times but like. yeah. a lot of the criticism is entirely correct #and it sucks bc i still love the show. its been with me for years and i love the worldbuilding and i love the art and i love the characters #but viv seems dead set on making me hate them all #sigh. i just dont know man #rambles

the fact that disney is more determined to give us "amazing" visuals rather than good stories and songs anymore is insulting

like they act like they cant have it all. youre the biggest studio ever, you own more companies than anything ever should, you have more money than i can even concieve of.

YOU ARE FULLY CAPABLE OF GIVING US MOVIES THAT ARE AMAZING IN EVERY ASPECT. SO FUCKING SHOW IT

#my post #i watched a video the other day about what mightve been the cause of disneys failure at making musicals in the last decade or so #and it started with. of all movies. tangled! and im still stuck on that #like it was specifically about the 'i see the light' scene when theyre on the water surrounded by the lanterns #the song writers were made to write like 40 songs they had to scrap UNTIL they were finally told the issue #that the team wanted the visuals to come first and for the song to come second. which meant they wanted the song TONED DOWN??#THEY COULD BOTH BE EQUALLY AMAZING HELLO??#it hurts me deeply inside to know. with how much i love that song. THAT THERE COULDVE BEEN AN EVEN BETTER ONE?#and then disney in general is just completely fumbling their songwriters which is why the songs suck #songwriters not given the ability to have a say in the story despite being part of telling the story? being scared to say anything-#-when the whole reason theyre there is to contribute! being told that they arent supposed to add anything new. only execute the plans made!#i have to imagine the storywriters are also being fucked over but the video was specifically about songwriters #my favorite moment in any movie EVER is a moment where the visuals AND the song come together EQUALLY to make the most beautiful moment ever #when moana and te ka are meeting in the middle of the parted sea. the way you can FEEL its the culmination of the movie #the way that te ka is frantically crawling toward and screaming at moana. the way that moana is calmly and confidently walking toward te ka #moana singing this peaceful beautiful song despite the danger. because she knows the truth. she sees te fiti beneath her unwilling disguise #the way that te ka hears her words and reacts by matching that calmness and letting her get close #and everything that that moment is meant to represent and *can* represent even if unintended #its just. its my favorite moment ok. AND IT WOULDNT WORK IF THE SONG WAS TONED DOWN FUCK YOU #i have crossed the horizon to find you. i know your name. and they have stolen the heart from inside you. but this does not define you.#this is not you who are. you know who you are. who you truly are <3 #INSERT MEME IMAGE OF GUY CRYING WITH EARBUDS IN #disney #disney criticism #I LITERALLY LOVE DISNEY MOVIES OK THIS IS NOT A HATE POST ABOUT THE MOVIES ITS A HATE POST ABOUT THE COMPANY #btw the video i watched. i recommend! its 'the downfall of the disney movie musical' by calxiyn cares too much on youtube!#disney critical #this especially isnt a tangled hate post btw i adore that movie and i was so sad that it was likely the start of all of this
