The Black Widow movie was NOT about Natasha. It was about Yelena. While shes a great character and does add depth to Natashas story THAT MOVIE WAS NOT ABOUT BLACK WIDOW. GIVE ME A NATASHA ROMANOFF MOVIE FFS!!

Understanding that Quackity has made massive mistakes managing Quackity Studios and paying the workers that the studio has employed and recognizing that he does not deserved to be doxxed, stalked, had threats made to his life, and face the risk of being swatted (which is especially dangerous given that he is a recognizably Latino man living in the United States of America and he is not originally from the country) are two concepts that need to coexist. I typically really dislike these types of posts, but this cannot slide. This doxxing is not deserved, nor can it be reasonably justified, and that should not be a statement I have to further explain.

scrolling through the repo! tag and seeing the way people interpret the largos as if they're in any way sympathetic or likeable is such a baffling example of how dead media literacy is.

like in multiple interviews, terrance zdunich and darren smith talk about how the largos are supposed to be so comically unlikeable that even a man as reprehensible of a person as rotti largo detests them. the joke is that the world of repo! is so horrible and dystopian that the comic relief are, in terrance zdunich's words, "a murderer and a rapist".

no, the largos would not go on to denounce their father and turn geneco into a benevolant company that changes sanitarium into a utopia of opportunity and life. like that would NOT happen, luigi is aggressive and power-hungry, pavi is as power-hungry as it gets considering he's a literal rapist who wears dead people's faces and amber is a spoilt womanchild who whines and moans and will do even the most degrading and dangerous stuff to get her way (fucking graverobber for drugs so she can keep getting obscene amounts of surgery). amber is slightly more sympathetic and she is meant to be, she's taken far more seriously than luigi and pavi but she's still a terrible person who intimidates and assaults people (Z'd up shouting at shilo, groping luigi's balls and licking his face, throwing tokens at graverobber, just to name a few)

"b-but it says geneco becomes committed to change!" that's something we like to call in the movie world a "joke". the change they're committed to is absolutely not going to be good - it's ran by a fashion surgery & drug addict, do you genuinely think amber sweet, after having absolutely zero character development and being humiliated and booed offstage, would genuinely want to make geneco, the company she didn't even want, a better/more ethical business?

the largos suck. that's sort of the whole point. you can like them without endorsing their actions, literally every single person in repo! has done something terrible except shilo and that's the point. the whole point is, in this world, the only good person is a girl who was kept trapped in her bedroom her whole life and never exposed to the cruel outside world.

but obviously enjoy what you want, this has been a weird misreading of characters since the fandom originated in late 2008, like i know it's always been here and it's not going away soon. it was just bugging me and this is my repo account so i wanted to share my thoughts lmfao

Pet play that involves actually acting/dressing like an animal and describing yourself as said animal? I'll pass.

HOWEVER.

Pet play that involves me being human yet collared and leashed, pushed down on all fours and compared to a dog due to all that humiliation and debasement while I protest??? I'm eating that shit up

the Eulmore Ran’jit battle isn’t superfluous it’s showing Ran’jit as a foil to you in the Crystal Braves arc. He’s the monstrous enforcer to Vauthry’s grand plans, who’s forsaken morality in the name of the greater good. He’s what you might have been if Alphinaud’s misguided plan for peace had been taken to its extreme

[strangeswift]

if you dislike taylor swift fans enough to maliciously mock them online i mean.. you're free to do that ofc.. but just know that i am performing calculations in my head to determine whether you're misogynistic, pretentious as fuck, or both.

[cameatslemons]

forever mad abt being against animal testing bc yeah, it’s a noble cause, but what other choice do we have? genuine question: when someone HAS to die for us to achieve bigger and better things, and possibly save lives, would you rather it be a rat or a human?

Just saw the previous ask by an anon you answered and wanted to drop my two cents on the Daemon discourse. I would argue that Daemon in the books is a better character than he is in the show not because writers hate him, but because writers try to make him more palatable to general audiences.

Daemon and Rhaenyra's relationship is the prime example for that. In the show they are made into this "star-crossed lovers" thing where it is this grand romance and all. In the books the relationship between these two is icky, and it is supposed to be icky. It literally starts with Daemon grooming and taking advantage of his 14 year-old niece. If they chose to keep that in the show nobody would root for Daemyra, so the writers made it so the two got together when Rhaenyra is an adult.

And the thing is that HOTD has multiple writers with opposing views so one episode we get an air-brushed Daemon who is not really that bad after all and misunderstood and respectful written by a writer who loves him and then the next episode we get evil monster Daemon who is even a worse person than he is in the books.

I think the most defining moment for Daemon's characterization in the show will be how they decide to play off B&C. It is the absolute evilest thing Daemon ever does and they will either go 100% with the book and show it to us like the brutality it is or they will try to soften it which would honestly really mess with the tone and impact of whole thing because B&C is not an event you can half-ass.

So the best we can hope is that for Season 2 the writers will come to a conclusion on how to go forward with the character and we finally get a consistent Daemon.

Love your blog btw, have a nice day! :)

Wew I think this has to be at least 3 cents worth LOLOL HAHAH. Interesting to know, my love. I see your point about making daemon more palatable. I honestly don't have anything else to add other than the fact whenever blood and cheese is mentioned i think of a hunk of soft cheese or a slice of cheese with holes on it and blood spurting on the cheese like an anime nosebleed LOL.

I hope the other anon sees this. And im honored to know you love my blog, twice so that you wanted to share this with me. <3 KISSES

It really bothers me how much shit people talk about each other, and I don't mean people like CEOs and billionaires or even celebrities (although there's a line there too), I mean like all the people working a minimum wage job talking shit about each other like we aren't all literally just trying to survive
