WOAH, HE'S BIGENDER? I DIDN'T KNOW THAT!
#hey. hey. im just saying. he LITERALLY 'transed his gender' in a diagetic bit in orange. and if that wasnt enough.#in blue he disguised himself as squid jenny specifically with larry's powers (the only thing hes done with them on screen)#got caught by his god-assigned roles-obsessed caretaker. and was given the label of being something intrinsically unescapably deceitful.#while 'pretending' to be trans girl.#like. if i wasnt pretty sure it was all an accident i might even call the allegory here slightly heavy-handed.#with the nccts emphasizing a theme of 'youre not just what people say you are#you can be more than one thing at the same time' with crim#i think crimson can have boygirl swag. some bigender pizzazz. i think he deserves it.#is it REALLY a cpu kerfuffle arc without a subversive narratively relevant gender-transing.#am i supposed to believe the spirit of deviance himself is cis? get fucking real. grow up. /silly#also a lil crimtoinette in there. just for flavor. because i cant help myself.#also sidenote the nccts have given him this cute lil tendency#to tip his hat down to hide his face when hes trying to be Genuine or Thoughtful or Poignant. and i enjoy that little touch#i maybe like this guy a little too much. hes most of what ive drawn for months.#but what do you want from me. i read him as a queercoded villain deconstructed at the metanarrative level.#am i just supposed to be normal about that.#me and zia talked about this in dms and discovered. we came to a lot of the same conclusions. completely independently. lmao#cpuk crimson

thought of the night as i venture slowly further into a new fandom: i have an intense soft spot for gandrel. like i am sorry i simply just do not have it in me to side with anyone but the romani coded individual who experiences egregious in text racism and who has deeply complicated history with a vampire that does not hold personal responsibility for the great injury done to the individual’s community ?? weird to see people talking about killing him and how mean he is for trying to hurt the favorite vampire man. like yeah gandrel is misguided but might we perhaps talk about the racism he immediately experiences 4 a moment. Perhaps.
#musings#i will say this: at the very least the text is aware of the racism even if the fandom does not always seem to be#with btvs the anti romani racism is saturating literally everything#here at least you have the dialogue option to go hey man that is insanely racist. which is a small but needed balm#anyway this is bc i saw a Reddit comment (always a mistake) going ‘’lol i always kill him’’#literally could never be me ❤️#but i DO recognize im coming at this from the worlds most jenny saturated angle#and you cannot be a jenny fan without being aware of & engaging with the antiromani racism in fandom and canon sooooooooo

thinking about elevenclara it could've been So Good like it has a lot of potential but sadly a) series 7b sucks and b) they don't have much chemistry they don't work with eachother the way any other doctor and companion do I find it really odd. anyway so im living in my dream world where the main dynamic of their relationship is that the doctor doesn't fully see her as a person he sees her more as something to study he's fascinated with her because she keeps dying he keeps seeing her die all over the universe (and on that note she should've appeared in more episodes pre being a companion) but his fascination with her is much the same as it would be with a science project he sees her as a puzzle to solve. and I think that aspect of their relationship would really nicely parallel twelves "you don't see me, you look at me and you don't see me" in deep breath. and clara is enamoured with this man she wants nothing more than to run away across the universe but she has to stay in control she can't just follow her impulses so she says come back tomorrow. and he does and they travel but she starts to see how he looks at her and he says things that don't line up and he doesn't tell her he's seen her die. and now she's not in control anymore and it's messing her up and then name/day/time of the doctor happens and suddenly she's faced with a man she doesn't recognise and who no longer looks at her like she's a puzzle he needs to solve and she doesn't recognise him at all. and that leads to the insanity that is twelveclara
#i dont know if i think elevenclara should've been a full season or not.. i think really they just needed better episodes#the only ones i like are journey to the centre of the tardis and the crimson horror but even those i have issues with#i think crimson horror should've been without the doctor i really do. he could've been there for five minutes at the end but jenny and clara#and vastra should've been the main focus

Shadows of Fear: Return of Favours (1.6, Thames, 1971)
"And then they got this funny idea. About you. And this room. Almost as if they could read my mind. Anticipating my intentions. Did you hear?"
"What intentions?"
"I thought they told you on the phone?"
"Oh, yes. They thought you'd killed me. But you wouldn't have the guts. It's all dreams. Pathetic lies. I've been living with them for years."
#shadows of fear#return of favours#single play#horror tv#classic tv#thames#1971#jeremy paul#kim mills#george cole#caroline blakiston#jennie linden#robin ellis#after a short burst of strong episodes‚ this series hits a wobble; it's not that this is terrible or anything‚ it's just a little#muddled and‚ like the first ep‚ feels overly drawn out at 50 mins (and would probably have worked better in a 25 minute slot)#the story (Cole surprises young lovers using his flat for a tryst without his knowledge‚ his strange behaviour from that point leading them#to suspect he has killed his wife) is pure old hokum‚ but not without promise for this kind of mildly 'horror' themed anthology#(tho again like the first eps this would be better described as suspense tv rather than horror). it's stretched too thin‚ though‚ and#drags itself to an ending that only raises more questions than it answers: SPOILERS INCOMING for this obscure and 50+ yr old ep of old tv#Cole hasn't killed his wife but plans to. he does once the couple leaves then engineers the return of Ellis so that he can frame him. but#it won't stand up for a second? as Ellis repeatedly yells at the end of the episode‚ Jennie L is just downstairs and besides the#circumstantial evidence that Cole sets up‚ there's nothing about the supposed murder by Ellis that makes sense. he doesn't even know the#wife‚ he has no motive. also Cole has a bandaged hand all through the ep which he menacingly unwraps at the end to reveal.. nothing#he was wearing it to avoid fingerprints ig? but... why? why not just wear gloves? idk it all feels a little silly and a little#underwhelming in its conclusion. fun cast tho.

Watching Eega right now, which was also written and directed by Rajamouli, and having another one of his movies to put RRR in perspective just makes it even more insanely gay like. In literally one Eega scene he managed to get me so hooked on the main couple like that's LOVE that's DEVOTION that's ART. So he is capable of writing showstopping straight romances, he just chose not to in RRR. This guy is out here making a whole light projector out of a bag of chips so his crush can finish her sculpture more easily, and Raju didn't even write to Seetha for 5 years. Bheem and Jenny didn't even get unambiguously together. Literally obsessed
#the way that there are exactly zero scenes between both bheem and jenny and raju and seetha where intimacy is shown#without the other being present#and not only present but also PART of that intimacy#like sure with bheemjenny you could be like 'oh raju needs to be there to translate'#even tho he wasn't plenty of times and there wasn't any intimacy or romance in THOSE scenes#but WHAT is the explanation for bheem being in the shot when raju and seetha reunite#and then TOUCHING SEETHA PLATONICALLY IN THE EXACT SAME WAY RAJU TOUCHED HER A SECOND AGO?#like. he went OUT OF HIS WAY to make these straight couples uninteresting and to center rambheem's relationship even in the straight scenes#this is no shade to seetha or jenny btw i mean im not super into jenny but i love seetha and i actually dig rambheemseetha polyam vibes#but it is SO funny like it is really obvious that he didn't put in any effort into these couples#rrr#eega#ss rajamouli#rambheem

damnn someone on twitter found this 2021 video and now everyone's shitting on namtan https://twitter.com/tiwporer/status/1653452625193336850
I'm not gonna defend her bc I do not speak for the trans community & especially not the thai trans community, but I think that, once again, inter fans are completely forgetting the cultural aspect as to why namtan might have said that. namtan herself has always described herself as a "katoey" bc she mostly hangs out with queer trans people, and while that doesn't excuse anything it can show you her mindset. moreover, in a culture where "ladyboys" are not really fully seen as trans women, we also have to understand why it's more accepted in thailand to refer to a "ladyboy" as a man or whatever, though I think attitudes are changing with social media introducing the concept of transness from the west to thai people. so I am not surprised at all tbh, when gmmtv have edited a beard on jennie, and most of jennie's humor herself is referring to herself as a man & putting on a fake beard (not saying it's okay, but it just shows the culture surrounding "ladyboys".) moreover, this clip is from jennie's channel which means her & her editors did not find any fault in what namtan said. once again, I'm not saying all of this is okay, I'm just saying that it's not right to not take the cultural aspect into consideration before painting everything with a broad brush, when "ladyboys" have been a reality in thailand for way longer than openly trans people in the west, and also were & somewhat still are regarded as a separate third gender rather than fitting in the binary. in fact, if you are a gay or bi man, you do not fit in the category of "man" either according to thai culture, bc in thailand gender is seen as intertwined with sexuality therefore there are way more than two or three genders. so ALL OF THAT TO SAY that I understand being offended & hurt by this and the many other examples of transphobia or at least insensitivity towards trans people coming from thai actors, but I don't think it's right either to view a different culture through the western lens you were raised with, and cultural difference & history should be taken into account. do with all that info what you will.
xxx
#answers#namtan tipnaree#jennie panhan#for info I choose to use '' for ''ladyboys'' bc I am myself a bit uncomfortable with the term as a westerner#even though this term is common & widely used in thailand without being seen as offensive at all#so I also fall victim to seeing thai cultural things through a western lens - I just acknowledge it & try to challenge it as much as I can

almost cried when chatting to a customer today who said they'd recently started T, and I think that's probably a sign I need to get myself on T like yesterday pls
#for real though it's on my wishlist for this year but I am v nervous about talking to the people who make it happen#don't want to enter my 30s without some bit of medical transition going on#but also im having to actively work through the internalised terf rhetoric of oh no what if going on T is bad#like damn it can't be worse than not being on T for me and even the 'bad' bits like acne would feel affirming#ready to live my best gross teenage boy life at 28#and also! I've wanted to go on T for ages but it's only over the past couple years I allowed myself to want ut#because it felt unachievable so best to kill the agent of desire as jenny holzer said#but now I'm like nope I'm too old not to live my truth#anyway#Nic stuff

do you ever develop strong opinions on a female character from a piece of media you don't even really like, just because someone you know revealed very strong negative opinions about them. bc. yeah
#this isn't about anybody here i was just reminded about two ppl i know irl who could not STAND jenny from forrest gump#i don't even fucking like that movie!! but we watched it for us history class in my junior year of high school#and when it ended and i expressed sympathy for her both my teacher and a friend i've known since we were toddlers#were like. what do you mean. wasn't she just so selfish. she's a horrible person and forrest would've been better off without her#and i just. idek. she was a product of her circumstances trying to find her place in a tumultuous world#and her arc was the single most enjoyable part of that film#so fuck you actually#friday chats

But tbh i think my shipping rather than romantic or platonic is more focused on how athy and jenny parallel each other. I dont know ehat to call it but yeah i do think they're obsessed with each other and have a deep and complex relationship that is beyond family and friendship and romance. They love each and are traumabond and thats what matters
#🪐.txt#literally pitted against each inside and outside of the narrative due to misogyny#both have daddy issues and dead mothers. both have been used as political chess pieces#both fought to be loved and were betrayed and despite everything remain allies#theyre also so fucking sweet with each other. fr i think athyette works because is the only relationship in wmmap that is#well. idk how to word it. but like. both of them are allowed to be flawed without whitewashing yet still remain good people#theyre allowed complexity and bittersweetness and mutual kindness and hurt without the whole#' i killed you but thats fine bc it was due to my trauma and dark magic (that i inflicted on myself) but still im a great father and its#fine bc i hastily apologized in the end and u forgive me and loves so theres no need to explore in depth our generational trauma and#toxicity'#oh oopsie git sidetracked here but u get what i mean#theyre also equals. which we dont see with athy and lucas (lucas is too op for his own good) or athy/jenny with older charas#(not to say that those relationships are shallow for that. just that is the majority and it is interesting on its own right)#(ugh but thats also athykiel should been the main ship. heck even politically it would work)

(the authority 1999-2002 issue #21)
this single panel to me both visually and with words is a big clue into just how important apollo is to midnighter.
in a world where his brain screams at how to kill his targets a million different ways from the crosshairs of his eyes, apollo is without a mark on his head.
what does this mean?
this means his love overrides that concept. he is not an enemy. he is someone who can cradle his love's face in his bloodstained hands and think only about how much he loves and wants to kiss apollo. about how he can watch apollo's sleeping face at sunrise to see his peaceful expression. about how he couldn't ask for a better other half.
that his journey to being a person is always miles behind apollo, where he's taking off and knowing himself while midnighter is still stuck trying to work with a computer brain that never shuts the fuck up.
that it's quiet with apollo and jenny. the thousands of statistics to maim or kill doesn't reach them, it's like traffic outside. those thoughts, those statistics go on mute around them.
how he trusts and loves and works to be better for apollo. apollo could easily kill him, but his computer brain is quiet.
apollo to midnighter is home. home to love, home to return to and repair the damage of mistakes, home to cherish. apollo's an angel, the sun god, the sun king, the sunshine to him.
apollo first was his teammate, aquaintance, friend, best friend, and boyfriend. he's still his teammate and best friend, but he's also his husband and other part of parenting their child together. his other half.
he loves apollo more than the words he can express, more than the nonverbal gestures and gifts he can give. it's hard but fucking hell, he'll try for him.
apollo was there on the start of the fight for a better world but along the way he time and time again made midnighter want to work at being a person. at being a better man. at repairing his mistakes from when he left them.
in a world where there's thousands of code and results for how to break and dispose of a person piece by piece in red x's, apollo is seen through a red spotlight. through a red colored camera lens.
#dc#dc comics#wildstorm#the authority#apollo#midnighter#apollo and midnighter#midpollo#buds reading#*scribbling this down in notes*#now i know there's one comic that implies midnighter has a target even on jenny's head but frankly i don't agree#besides the fact that this particular comic makes me eck for the plot it could literally only be a matter of perspective#we have no idea of knowing unless it was shown again through midnighter's perspective about jenny quantum#i don't believe he's seen her with a target based on how he acts and speaks about her#that unlike for apollo's there never was a target on jenny quantum.#matter of personal opinion about this obviously as some will claim it's only apollo without one which is fine#i just think the concept that apollo lost the target on his head over time and that jenny quantum never had one to be interesting

Unpopular Opinion:
When I actually look at BTS and BP I'm truly reminded of how different those groups are. Both groups have been given everything by their fans, their success is because of their fans. But you have 1 group who does everything in their power to give everything back to their fans, always showing appreciation and doing everything they can for their fans. While the other group wouldn't even give a single fan the time of day. Wild.
Blinks have been the most mistreated fandom by their faves, it's honestly so wild to me how they have fans still. I know Blinks are becoming more of a dying breed rn, but you still have those dedicated die hard who have that glimmer of hope and all I gotta say is: praying for you.
#bts#bangtan sonyeondan#blackpink#blinks#the difference is absolutely crazy to me#bp isn't coming back im sure#Lisa is securing that bag with Fedric and Jisoo doesn't even want to be an idol#Jennie does better at variety shows than anything#Rose is the only one who can't survive without bp
