Now the AA's can't keep bragging about how great Jensen is for tweeting about Walker before TW. Jared tweeted about TW and GK before WIndy. AND he even waited 5 hours in between, unlike someone who only waited 7 minutes.

Oh, I'm sure they'll find something else to complain brag about. (And we know that something else will be the number of tweets since TW has a larger online fandom than WIndy (even if that didn't relate to actual viewer counts).

“I’ll never ascend Astarion but—“ anything after but is bullshit my friend, you can’t have your cake and eat it too. You can’t enjoy his ascended dialogues if you’re gonna be chronically online & harass people about it in every other regard.

I think if I were really going to insert Harrow into the Ace Attorney setting tho, she'd be a defense attorney. One with an even more extreme philosophy than any in the game so far. She specialises in sentencing trials and plea bargains, representing guilty clients.

She knows that the falsely accused aren't the only ones who need someone in their corner when it feels like the world has turned its back. She learned that a long time ago, from a childhood.... friend. Someone she owes more than she could ever possibly repay, who believed in her and forgave her even when they both knew she didn't deserve it.

special place in hell for liberal zionists on this godforsaken app who are saying it's futile to donate to individual fundraisers and that 'if u care about Gaza 'truly,' u should donate to reputed orgs working on the ground' while sitting in stolen Palestinian homes in tel aviv. what reputed orgs are left when the zionist entity smears and verbally + physically attcks every org working to help Palestinians? it calls the unrwa a terrorist organization and bombed a clearly marked vehicle for the world food programme even after giving clearance to the vehicle

what i hate about these liberal zionists is the fake sympathy for Palestinians like be fr u live on Palestinian land that was stolen through decades of rape and murder and ethnic cleansing thats ur filthy legacy u already have blood on ur hands just be honest about ur genocidal hatred for Palestinians instead of pretending to care while doing absolutely nothing and simultaneously insulting and ridiculing those who are actually donating and raising awareness

Not gonna lie, kinda surprised Anna cares about photo credit since she is soooo far up his @ss. She literally makes new merch every time he breathes. I wonder how long before we get some russian propaganda video game shirts for her to wear at the next con... **

It's funny though that she's claiming "Y’all, yes they used our photos. Yes, we did know about it and sent them hi-res images" but somehow they don't know who they asked to give credit on the post? The fans themselves still have to ACTIVELY ask for credit. If RC "asked" to use the pics wouldn't they already know who they were from? So that half-assed "Apparently there is a 3rd. Working on that now" credit they put on the bottom of the post shouldn't be there, since they asked and all right? No reason for Anna to cover for Jensen.. right?

** just kidding, she ALREADY made multiple shirts... https://twitter.com/kunerksterphoto/status/1625522767180271619 https://twitter.com/kunerksterphoto/status/1625535414307115008

I knew there was a reason I had her blocked. I'd like to say I'm surprised when Jensen's fans act like this, but unfortunately, I'm not. I think we need a sign to tap every time AAs are being hypocritical, and a back-up for when the first sign wears out.

[bananasfosterparent]

Why is it, when it comes to Spawn Astarion's new reactions to Tav sleeping with Mizora and cheating on him, it's "aww pookie is standing up for himself!" and "I'm glad they made it clear he takes no bs from Tav!" and "I'm glad he defends himself and his feelings!"....but when AA does the exact same thing against Tav comparing him to his abuser and being a hypocrite (and then calling him a hypocrite), it's "he's overreacting and being manipulative"??? (rhetorical question, I know why)

Both situations he is calling out Tav's BS and standing up for himself and his feelings.

AA in fact has more reason to be upset because Tav actively and directly helps him do something evil and then turns around and points at him and goes "you're evil! and I'm not! burn the witch!" when they are just as guilty and just as much "Cazedor 2.0" from their own perspective.

If anything, that is a moment he has even more agency to call out their BS, because they aren't just betraying him, they're trying to gaslight and emotionally abuse him.

But the crowd ain't ready for that conversation.

That episode in season 2 of Avengers Assemble where they're having a mini civil war and Steve and Tony pretend to not like each other anymore. Bickering in the middle of the battle but at the same time, making sure the other doesn't die. And then they're pretending to have a verbal standoff again, only for it turn into one of the best moments in AA.

'You don't get it, Cap. Arsenal is my father's greatest creation'

'No, you don't get it. Arsenal isn't your father's greatest creation. You are.

Make him proud, Tony.'

And I fucking cried.... Like, that is such a sweet moment. The soft way in which he says 'Make him proud, Tony' while squeezing Tony's shoulder and giving him that proud, really soft smile......... 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

AA!Steve gets Tony Stark. He is a flawed man who keeps making mistakes, but in the end, he's a hero who's willing to do whatever it takes to save everyone. He's a genius who has not one, not five but seventeen different ways to defeat the bad guys (Steve's words, not mine) and takes any risks necessary to save the world ('Tony Stark does that 5 times before breakfast', Steve says to Fury). AA! Steve doesn't jump to conclusions, isn't judgemental and isn't a hypocrite. He's supportive, patient, loyal and pretty much in love with Tony Stark!

Avengers Assemble Stony is absolutely precious to me!

14 and I'm thinkin' 'bout God again

Ponyboy had never gone to church before. He’d never seen the point in it. No one in his family was a believer, and if he was going to spend a couple hours watching someone talk, he would rather have it be a movie than a sermon. 

But now that his parents were gone, he started wondering where they were. They would’ve made their way into heaven, he was sure of that. But did it even exist? Was someone else right? Was there another sort of afterlife? Were they sent to hell for being non-believers?

Was there nothing? Had their souls just disappeared? Were they really sleeping forever, unconscious? If that was what was waiting for everyone, what was even the point of being alive? The sun would explode and consume everything and they would be gone and all that would be left would be a void. No life. No thoughts. No memories. 

He slipped into the church with Johnny right before the service began, trying to be quiet so no one would notice them and their not-so-clean clothes.  

In the back of our car, everyone is so far from me

Marcia wanted to phase through the backseat and reappear in her bed. Bob and Randy had been drinking and Cherry was glaring holes into the back of their heads and Marcia was exhausted and couldn't garner the energy to join in.

She was tired for everything these days. Too tired for rallies and protests. Too tired to play with her little sister. Too tired to care about Randy and Bob drinking until they threw up. Too tired to pay attention in class. Too tired to care about how Bob being behind the wheel was illegal and about how it was illegal because it could kill them.

She just wanted things to be easy. Why did everything have to be a fight?

Maybe it’d be easier if she just stayed in her room alone and did nothing. Staring at the ceiling, laying on her bed, fading in and out of sleep. Maybe it’d be easier if she just stopped existing. 

17 and I'm feelin' so out of place, I've been movin' too much

Dally slept where he could. Buck said he didn’t need the rent money, but Dally knew better than that and tried to stay away for as long as he could because there was no way Buck would accept any form of payment from him. Not even helping around the bar or cleaning up after they closed. 

He stayed at Tim’s a couple times, but he was definitely an outsider there. Angela always gave him the stink eye – she was friends with Sylvia – and Curly gave him a wide berth. Tim was nice enough, but clearly didn’t want his bad influence around his kid brother and sister. A bit hypocritical, maybe, but imagining Tim palling around with Johnny made Dally understand why Tim seemed three seconds away from strangling him when he told Curly a dirty joke.  

There was Sylvia’s, sure, but they were always fighting and didn't get along too well even when they weren't. The Curtises’ couch was taken by someone else – usually Johnny – most of the time and Dally would rather die cold and alone on the street than force Johnny out of the only place he could call home. 

(Nevermind that it was his, too)

And lately, I've been runnin' 'round in circles every day

Johnny paced the lot for the third time. He couldn’t sleep. Not so soon after. Everytime he closed his eyes, he swore he could hear the low rumble of a Mustang coming around the corner to finish the job. 

To follow through with all those threats. 

He knew he should go to the Curtises’, but he didn’t want to bother them. Darry had enough to worry about without having to pick up charity cases.  

Fourth lap. It was nearing midnight. He wasn’t getting any sleep tonight. 

19 and I'm gettin' too drunk again

It was noon on a Wednesday and Two-Bit was nursing his third beer.

He thought about Steve’s face curling in disgust whenever he smelled alcohol on Two-Bit’s breath. Susie looking at him in disappointment with those big, brown eyes whenever he came home drunk. Sodapop’s pitying looks whenever he had beer for breakfast and Darry telling him about AA meetings and Ponyboy reciting statistics in an attempt to get him to stop. 

He thought about visiting the hospital and seeing Johnny, laying there, useless and in pain. Being useless and watching, helpless, as he died slowly and painfully. He thought about Dally crumpling under a streetlight, seventeen and hopeless. He thought about how he was never going to leave their neighborhood, how he was never going to graduate from highschool, how Ponyboy and Darry would leave and find someplace better and Steve and Soda would open their own gas station and he would be left there alone, still nursing his third beer on a Wednesday morning when he was thirty. 

He took another swig. 

And I'm fallin' in love with everyone just for a minute

She was pretty. A brunette, not a blonde, and brown eyes, not blue, but she was pretty. And she was funny and smart and really liked Soda. 

They’d had fun that evening and she was a bit older than him so she lived alone and they were at her place. He should be happy. He should be enjoying himself. But all he could think about was blond hair and someone else’s kid. 

“I’m sorry,” he murmured as he stepped away, buttoning his shirt back up, “I can’t.”

20 and I'm runnin' away from everythin', I dropped out of school

Whenever Darry had a problem as a kid – homework he couldn’t figure out, a fight with some friends, someone being rude to him –, his dad would always remind him he played football, not track. He didn’t run away from things, he tackled them. He would force him to face the problem head-on and figure it out and not let it rest until it was solved. 

Lately, he’d been thinking that maybe he could replace Ponyboy as the track star in the family. 

Sure, he paid the bills and got custody and made half-hearted apologies when he was too out of line with Ponyboy, but the moment sadness poked its head out, tentatively asking if it could heal his wounds now, he shoved it down twice as hard as last time. He hadn’t let himself cry once in the last seven months, no matter how many times he wanted to. That wasn’t about to change any time soon. 

(It changed a month later as he hugged his brothers in a hospital waiting room when it finally came to be too much.)

To end up wakin' on another cold park bench

Steve’s father was kicking him out more often. It used to be once a month, for maybe two or three days. Now it was practically every week. 

It almost wasn’t worth going back. 

He couldn’t go over to the Curtises’ that often. Not just because it wasn’t fair for them to have to put up with him for so long, but also because it was humiliating. If he wasn’t even good enough for his own father to want him around, then who would?

Johnny would see him at the lot and Dally would see him at Buck’s so he went to the park. It was deserted at night and was on their turf so he could sleep undisturbed. 

He tried to ignore the shame rolling around in his chest when he woke up at sunrise to clean himself up with the fountain’s icy water. 

And I've turned off a part of me 

Soda wasn’t allowed to have feelings anymore, apparently. He wasn’t a person anymore, just a rope. A rope for his brothers to tug back and forth until he tore right down the middle. 

He’d never been all that good at following rules, but this was one he could follow. No feelings? He could do that. He could make himself a smiling, steady presence for his brothers. He could stretch himself thin enough to cover everyone. 

He could keep his family together.  

that I can't find anymore

He’d tried. Ponyboy swore that he’d tried.

But he couldn’t finish Gone with the Wind. He couldn’t. He couldn’t bring himself to concentrate on a sentence for more than a couple seconds before his mind started to wander. Johnny had been better than him at finding meaning in things. There was probably something there that he couldn’t see. 

Why even read if he couldn’t know what Johnny would have thought? What he would have felt? Why should Ponyboy get to read words that Johnny never would?

How was he supposed to stay gold when the golden part of himself was rotting underground?

I'm sick of always questionin' myself

Cherry walked home alone from the drive-in for the fourth time this month. Every time. He got drunk every single time, no matter what she did. 

Was she doing something wrong? Did being a good girlfriend mean turning a blind eye and pretending like she didn’t care? Was it all her fault? Maybe if she was better in some way – not as annoying, more obedient, nicer – he wouldn’t have to drink himself stupid every Friday. 

It’s not your fault, she told herself. It was not her fault. It was Bob’s. She didn’t have to be more submissive, he had to stop drinking. 

But it wasn’t his fault either. He didn’t conjure up alcohol out of nowhere. Store clerks and older kids and adults, they turned a blind eye. They let a boy, a child, get something that was almost a drug so they could put some money in their pockets and he would have the courage to beat up other children.  

And what I'm doin' wrong

Randy watched as Bob swung another punch. He was wearing rings. That was going to scar. The kid was almost crying. 

What were they even doing? Why were they here? What did they want to prove? The kid hadn’t even done anything wrong, he was just wandering around. 

Randy’d seen the guy around school. He was quiet, kept to himself. Had bruises sometimes and always told teachers – the few that cared – that he’d fallen. It was obvious he hadn’t. Who falls into hands around their neck? 

Why were they beating on someone who already had it so rough? It wasn’t the kid’s fault he was a greaser, just like it wasn’t Bob’s fault his parents let him get away with murder and it wasn’t Randy’s fault his parents didn’t let him take a breath without telling them about it.  

It was wrong, it was all so wrong, the way they all thrived on violence, acting like it made some sort of a difference to anyone. Who was watching them and deciding the winner? Who would make the rules change if they just beat on one more innocent kid, made one more little boy scared to walk around at night?

I've been fightin' with who I am inside my head

Sylvia collapsed onto the couch with a sigh, half expecting her mother to come out to scold her for being unladylike.  

Not like that was going to happen anytime soon. She’d chosen herself over her children when she’d up and left with no warning. So now there was no one around to tell Sylvia to wear longer skirts or less makeup or tie her hair back or go back to school. 

School. It was four. Remmy'd finished an hour ago. She had to pick him up. Fuck. She’d let Evie drag her along to a rally and lost track of time. 

The teacher rolled her eyes when Sylvia showed up half an hour later, muttering about whores and how it wasn’t her job to take care of accidents. Sylvia figured she could have nicely corrected her and told her Remmy was her baby brother and she was late because she’d been trying to get equal rights, actually, but she didn’t really feel like it. Saying that bitch’s boyfriend was the father was much more satisfying.  

It wasn’t worth it, though, when Remmy stormed off alone down the street and she had to run after him. He was mad. Of course he was mad. She’d been an hour and a half late picking him up and instead of apologizing and taking him home quietly, she’d picked a fight with his teacher. 

She really was useless, wasn’t she? Every day she told herself today would be the day she changed for the better, but she never really did. 

And I don't know me anymore

Maybe a label was supposed to be enough. Drunk. Brother. Dreamer. Useless. Girlfriend. Greaser. Soc. 

Why wasn’t it?

And I wish I was somebody else

Just to feel like I'm enough for myself

[gingergofastboatsmojito]

Carmy is a hypocrite

Like most cowards are

But unlike most cowards, he had a point.

Carmy was quick to judge his brother and get out of the family household to "show him".

But he didn't take this into account:

Michael Berzatto is immortal

Carmy expects Syd to be legally obligated to push him and let herself be pushed, but when he's pushed he can't handle it:

Carmy wants to change the menu every day but when Syd wants to make changes, he prefers to go his way:

Granted there is a valid explanation for that I already went over

Here → Yeah, right.

And Syd can easily put an end to it by signing the agreement and exercising her rights as a partner. But she's avoiding it and delaying it and making things worse as time goes by, so it's a 50% / 50% here.

But in terms of Carmy's discourse, it's nothing but hypocrisy, no matter how unconscious his behavior is and what reasons he has to justify it.

Carmy wants Richie to accept his apologies because he loves him but he won't accept Donna's who clearly wants to reconnect with her strange son, while he avoids her:

And the list can go on and on and ooooonnnnnn...

Because he is a HYPOCRITE and as with all hypocrisy, it's rooted in what in essence can be labeled as a "lack of balls".

He's clearly not the kinda guy who avoids conflict, as a matter of fact, he's the opposite because he's → Donna's son and → reactive in nature.

But he's scared shitless of true mature behavior, he's not ready for that, as I explained here. And if we dig deeper, we can clearly see that part of his fear has to do with his mommy issues, which I mentioned here. And of course, also with his many psychological conditions that remain untreated, which I elaborated on in previous posts such as:

Let's put the ship in partnership

Carmy Berzatto and his erotic transfer

Or are being incorrectly treated, because the AA meetings are like trying to put out a wildfire with a glass of water, in his case. He needs a whole team of professionals who develop a personalized healthcare plan for him and follow up regularly with him to help him stick to it. Especially since changing his surroundings is not an option.

So summing up, he's a hypocrite.

BUT

He has a point, which is, that if he stops being a hypocrite, he will have to change his ways, which requires courage, and balls, sure, but most importantly, he will have to face the truth about his feelings for Syd, face the C person and act like a man and go on an apology tour, which is something that requires something he doesn't have yet:

MADURITY

He's a kid trapped in a 30-31 year old body. And that's exactly what happens to abuse/trauma victims. There's this arrested development that mentally freezes them up in the time of their lives when the abuse began. And they can look like very adjusted people for most of us, they can look like accomplished chefs, like wannabes who are really into their artistic hobbies that are actually nothing but escapism, like people who "just want to do what's right", perfectionists even, etc... but in their case, that's nothing but a mask that hides their level of immaturity. They can ONLY HANDLE getting their asses kissed all the time, anything else is something they just can't take. Imagine a toddler: if you go and say (in a baby voice, ofc): "Oh you're soooo cute, I love your drawings! Wow! Did you make this? I love this! OMG! It's soooo cute! Awwww" the kid will be all smiley and over the moon, right? They will love it.

But try telling a 5-year-old:

Don't yell.

Stop.

Drop that.

No, you're not right.

Etc.

They will always find a problem with accepting limits and behaving BECAUSE THEY ARE TODDLERS. They will probably even throw a TANTRUM, even in public sometimes... They won't care how it looks. They are not above making a scene. All parents have to deal with that for a few years, no matter how well-adjusted and healthy their kiddo is. It's normal behavior IN A TODDLER.

Well, adults can be toddlers too (mentally). And that leads to HYPOCRISY. Like in Carmy's case.

Fortunately, maturity levels and development are dynamic. Hardly ever static. So Carmy is not a hopeless case.

I'm confident that S4 will be the season in which he will FINALLY GROW THE FUCK UP.

Because he has already reached his breakthrough.

Remember to follow my tag #Gingerpovs

[0dayssincejensenwasobjectified]

You AAs are a buncha fuckin' hypocrites. You go bash Jared at every turn you can, you punch anyone who speaks even a TINY bit of criticism about the Ackles (or implied in your fuckin' ears!), and make sure no one steps out of line!

You are nothing like what Jensen is saying in this goddammit speech!

[lightofraye]

//also stop being so hypocritical, you complain about Danneel cutting of Jensen when Jared does it as well and alot more. You complain when anyone makes a jokes a to Jensen about jensen but is comletely ok when Jared does the same//

Jared and Jensen both talk over each other at times, and actually I’d say Jensen does it more often now than Jared. AAs just rake it as a capital crime when anyone dares to speak over Jensen or instead of Jensen.

The difference between Danneel and Jared making jokes about Jensen is that Danneel's are about tearing Jensen down about how he is as a father, his acting, his weight, sexual jokes he seems uncomfortable with.

Jared's jokes are mostly silly, and they joke with each other, back and forth. Jensen doesn’t joke back with Danneel. They joke about being bow-legged and too tall. Both have said the odd potentially crappy joke, or gone a bit far about each other, but it’s not often. Danneel constantly "jokes" at Jensen's expense.

Also, the only people I take issue with jokes they make at Jensen's expense are Danneel and Misha.

Yeah. Jared and Jensen banter, loose and freely, being absurd, comical, almost puppy-like at times. I've never seen either of them like that with anyone else. Jensen's so stiff around Danneel and reserved with Misha, and for good reason.

J2 forever, man.

[wooimbouttamakeanameformyself]

grow up, and stop using the fucking prequel, you guys are so fucking childish, making fun of people YOU don’t know. Everyone on this fucking planet is problematic so grow the fuck up and a life. And making fun of people’s appearances is DISGUSTING and Disrespectful. You need to get morals and Jared isn’t that good of a person as well so grow up and stop fucking crying over mistakes people make including any actor or celebrities.

First off, Jenn—ANON,

They’re celebrities. They’re going to get hate and criticism from the media. I’m sure they’re all aware of that when they’re actively putting themselves into the public eye.

Can’t exactly argue with you, I’ve said things about Jensen’s and Danneel’s appearance — because they’ve had very noticeable changes due to fillers or other type of cosmetic surgery. I’m not saying anyone who has work done is automatically ugly (because then I’d be a hypocrite) but having excessive work done never has good results, take Danneel for example, she used to be really beautiful before she filled her face with Botox that she didn’t need — to the point where every five years she looks like a completely different person. I just hope Jensen doesn’t go down the same route.

And just please… shut up with your holier than thou nonsense. Because you’re literally bringing up Jared, which proves my entire point of how AAs have to somehow make everything about Jared to deflect criticism from Jensen. I’m aware Jared’s made mistakes, neither him nor Jensen are saints.

Why should I stop using the prequelgate? Because there’s no way to excuse Jensen’s behaviour so you’d rather me just not bring it up?

And what’s with all the ‘fucking’? Did someone learn a new word?
