#get him a barber

[oz-moth]

The internet will never understand the absolute grip BrightGoats version of the Addisons has on me.

The pink fuckass one especially he seems like a pathetic little thing ngl

Also they made casino cups? What drug are they snorting to make them so talented?

Who's Ur plug.

It's funny how Sweeney Todd almost exclusively kills men and it's *not* a feminist thing, it's literally just that men are the ones who see barbers. Of course you could probably get some deeper analysis out of the fact that he mostly kills men, but it's not a feminist thing even though his wife and daughter were horrifically abused by a man and his friend/lover of convenience Mrs. Lovett's husband clearly wasn't great (at least in the movie? I haven't seen the play in a while.) Once I saw a fundraiser for a version of the story where he and Mrs. Lovett are specifically going after male abusers and that could be cool, I hope that got off the ground.

OLD NOVMENBER DAY TWO: TMMoF (Dr. Barber)

my one true love...

[supercantaloupe]

happy sleepover saturday

ummmm kind of looking forward to see what the next season looks like for vaopera— hoping for good stuff.

the bug is snug in a rug...

OH so i actually might have some insider info on that one. vaopera hasn't made a season announcement anywhere as far as i can tell but my friend claims to have the scoop, and given the level of detail he relayed to me i think it's reasonably credible. he says that next season will be la cenerentola, intelligence (by heggie and scheer, of moby dick fame), and aida. this is not confirmed in any official capacity yet, but, much to consider regardless

The thing about Prowl is I don't really think canon was ever trying to frame him as a "necessary evil" or anything along the lines of "he's a shitty person but his work was necessary" like mmm.... That feels very much like something Prowl wants to believe about himself, not something that's actually factually true in reality.

I can't really make a good argument about it because I only remember like a handful of standout Prowl Moments in IDW1 but like... Prowl dropping a bomb on a neutral city and blaming it on the Decepticons is not "a necessary evil," that's a war crime. Prowl trying to destroy the space bridge to Caminus to keep Starscream from getting power over it, dooming the entire planet and its inhabitants to extinction by starvation, is not "a necessary evil," it's a fucking war crime. I feel like trying to frame such drastic measures as him "doing the dirty work of the Autobots" feels way too much like an excuse for actions that actually aren't justifiable. Especially since Prowl himself is far from being the 100% rational guy he thinks he is, considering how often he bases his decisions on things like his anti-Decepticon bias and his general refusal to follow any orders that contradict what he thinks is The Right Thing To Do (TM).

But also I think this is kind of the fault of the narrative of IDW1, since very few Autobots besides Prowl are given the chance to actually be morally gray even when the worldbuilding implicates them in some very morally gray things. Like, for example, JRO adding in the existence of MTOs which implies that the normally squeaky-clean leader Optimus was willing to approve the creation of new soldiers just to throw them into combat (and even the attempts to humanize the MTOs by giving them "an education" were eventually cut down to nothing but combat optimizations). And there's also the fact that Optimus knows about the Wreckers and has been known to call them on missions at least once (Stormbringer), meaning he's very much aware of the Wreckers and their tactics and is willing to call them in for fights when it's necessary.

I don't think you need to use Prowl as a crutch to make the Autobots morally gray. I think the Autobot leadership (or at least, Optimus, since few people besides him or Prowl seem to have major tactical command over the army as a whole) is plenty morally gray enough on its own, because the nature of war is inherently morally gray no matter how righteous your cause is. Reducing the lives of your own people into numbers on maps, harvesting resources, bringing MTOs to life just to die in a war they practically have no stake in, those things are enough.

And tbh it kind of bothers me when people try to saddle Prowl with the "dirty work of the Autobots", not just because it frames Prowl's blatantly evil actions as some sort of savior act taking the blame from the rest of the Autobots (which isn't even accurate, because the blame for war crimes falls on the entire army as an institution rather than one person), but because it downplays the moral grayness of the Autobots and pretends that no Autobot BESIDES Prowl ever participated in morally gray actions, which simply isn't true.

TLDR: Prowl isn't as much of a hero as he thinks he is because committing atrocities in the name of your cause doesn't change the fact that they're atrocities (and may not have even been justified). However, painting Prowl as the "token evil teammate" of sorts also places too much blame for the atrocities of war on him in particular, when in reality that's a burden shared by Optimus Prime and any other members of the Autobot military command structure.

so happy the curly red hair with facial hair lucifer agenda is spreading, I haven't made a full actual design yet but have like an idea of it, he's basically that and I'm not alone LES GOOO also he's fat also idk how him being big would work cause like I was asking around hazbin discord servers (totally reliable source I know), asking people if he could change his body shape and if there was a limit to how long he could stay in other forms, and 2-3 people assumed he can stay in another body shape for as long as he wants, so based off that um I'm guessing if luci ever were to feel insecure about his weight gain hed just simply make himself skinny again so now I'm sad cus I probably cant make him thick MANNNN whatEVER ill make it so there's limits on how long he can stay in other forms I need to push the fat lucifer propaganda (this might change in the future but like as of right now I'm pretty adamant on having him be a big guy ((still short)))

ignore alastor i was having brainrot also i forgot lucifers red cheeks this is like the only thing I have of him that's presentable rn

The swedish royal opera is doing "figaro gets a divorce" in 2026.... That's a choice

[sextuspompey]

connected to the daddy issues poll, some weeks ago i got really into finding out who mucia tertia's mother was (because as it turns out wikipedia treats masters of rome as a credible source) and without going into details, what we do know is that she was related to cato's family according to plutarch and that she may have also been the claudii's mother. and like. that theory is difficult to confirm but i'm interested in it because it makes pompey's marriage plans for his son (first with cato's daughter/niece, then with appius claudius's daughter) kind of Weird since pompey jr would already be connected to these people through his mother. it's as if pompey was attempting to recreate the family connections he lost in the divorce while erasing mucia's influence from the picture.
