I’m sorry but nothing will ever beat Finn’s drive playlist that he made during s3 filming, with songs like Me and Michael, The Basement, Gay Thoughts and No Woman lmaoooo
#byler#stranger things#in all seriousness#finn has already confirmed he listens to music on the way to set to get in the zone for his character#millie and noah have said when asked that he’s the cast-member most likely to be listening to music on set#do I think every song on there is byler-coded? no#do I think he made it specifically for byler fans to witness and read into? no#but i do think there is a middle ground here#since byler is happening... yeah there are gonna be songs that get him in the zone for byler scenes#and yet there are also probably gonna be songs that he likes rn and wants to use to feel inspo for filming in general#aka plenty of songs just there for the way they sound/the vibes that get him more comfortable getting into character#but then again he also could have made the playlist private to avoid people reading into it#he’s known for years people have seen his playlists and hasn’t made those private either#so I don’t think he cares if ppl read into it#(at least for now...)#but fr that drive playlist still haunts me to this day#i remember when he mentioned listening to music to get in the zone for filming#he specifically mentioned that he listened to it when driving to set and ppl went crazy connecting it to his drive playlist lol#so i mean who knows#maybe he makes the names confusing/random but also sometimes with a hint of truth bc he knows people are gonna deny it or read into it#and he's playing with that possiblity#but i wouldn't die on that hill by any means.#but the drive playlist is why idrc if people read into the STurn one bc i mean....#yeah those songs that sound eerily like mike's emotions in regards to will probably are that way for a reason

That feeling when you're absolutely certain you've read an article on a topic but you can't find it, or anything quoting it, or any reference to it, and you're beginning to think you imagined it and it never existed in the first place.
#I SWEAR IT EXISTED#somebody has written about emer's lament for cu chulainn and cu chulainn's lament for fer diad#RIGHT?!#i have found one relevant comparison of comrac fir diad with deirdre's lament for naoise that i can use in a pinch#but i could swear there was an emer-specific one#please i have found a Verbal Echo and i am absolutely certain i am not the first person to find it#... well. not absolutely certain. because OCC. but.#finn is not doing a phd

Since I started comparing lis1 and lis2, the one thing I can say number 1 does better is the scene on the roof:

And this is for a simple reason: you can fail.
With all the rewind power Max has, she has just one shot at this, and if you're not attentive enough, if you didn't figure out which family members she's close to, or said the wrong things to her you can fail. Or you can pass by intuition alone.
In LiS2, however, I found this moment a bit lacking. Considering that playing as Sean, a mc without powers, you should be able to fail a lot, however it never felt severe enough.
There was one scene which I thought would fix this, and it's episode 4:

The problem is that no matter what you choose to say or do in this level you just can't fail at all
When trying to talk Daniel into leaving the church, on my first playtrough I was convinced you could fail at convincing, and would have to force daniel to come with you, (by eliminating the reverend yourself or getting beat up enough that daniel just snaps and kills everyone in the church except for Karen and Sean without the player getting a choice to spare them). Which could've been great for storytelling imho, as sort of "worst outcome"
IDK I just felt like there should've been something, as any option of dialogue in the church leads to the same outcome
#you could say finns death is that moment#but there's only two ways for him to die#both needing you to either have a gun and decide to use it or have a high enough brotherhood level for daniel to do nothing#i guess i just liked the roof scene a lil too much#life is strange 2#life is strange#lis#lis2#rant

Oh and also less important: Jere saw me and shouted me out as Denmark Guy again so I havent been forgotten yet 🤣
#tbh that short interaction was all if not more than i could have hoped for#back to being excited over the small things :'3 <3#that said i also met Mikke and gave him stickers for himself jere and Häärijä#had wanted to meet h himself since it was his face on the sticker but we got kicked out too dang early so no use#also there is an almost 100% chance jere saw me wave to him when on our knees for the second ccc#he lifted his glass my direction and made heart and i made thumbs up back#only later i learned that the finn next to me (and my roomie for this trip) had waved at jesse too xD#so i guess either of us could have been the object of jesse's acknowledgement 🤣#käärijä#my gig#london heaven gig#micahs foolery

The Last Jedi AU: Ignore whatever’s supposed to happen or where people are in this movie. Paige Tico is foiled in her attempt to release the bombs that would take out the First Order ship. Her ship is boarded and she’s taken onboard the Star Destroyer as a captive intelligence officer, but before she’s captured she’s able to relay a covert message to Rose telling her what happened.
Instead of the diversion to Canto Bight, Rose is the one with the knowledge of splicing into Imperial ships and she and Finn impulsively plan to jet over to the Star Destroyer in an escape pod Rose had been experimenting with a cloaking device on, the two of them breaking in on their own.
Finn finds Poe to tell him of Paige’s capture and his and Rose’s plan. Poe knows that he can’t condone or contribute resources to it and knows for a FACT Leia won’t allow it, despite the fact Paige is a friend and the same rank he is. He’s torn between getting her back but needing to stay and lead, so he he tells them to take BB-8 and does that Mr. Incredible thing where he tells Finn and Rose what “NOT” to do to get into an Imperial flagship, him planning the distraction from the outside and still screwing with Hux over the comms and keeping eyes turned his way as Finn and Rose sneak onboard to find Paige.
Can you imagine if like they manage to get into some labs while they’re doing recon and Finn senses something? Can you imagine him hesitating as they move, telling Rose they have to go back while she’s hissing for him to keep moving? Her either hacking into the tech to redirect First Order troops away from their location, or going off to find her sister herself while Finn stays behind? Finn finding schematics and draftings alongside old codexes and scrolls before eventually coming to the humming, fractured kyber crystal in the next room, hanging suspended in midair above the equipment? Realizing as he’s digging through the odd mix of both scientific and semi-magical texts what it’s for, but that Ren hasn’t been able to force it to conform to his needs, too unstable to be housed even in his own lightsaber? Finn starting to configure and piece things together even as Rose tells him they’re running out of time?
As they’re sneaking around, gathering pertinent information to the plot and finding Ren’s plans for Rey and Skywalker, they’re nearly caught— Surrounded by First Order troops and with seemingly no way out, Rose and Finn prepare for the worst, when all of a sudden one of the troops goes rogue and eliminates all of their fellow officers instead. Paige Tico managed to escape and had disguised herself, just happening to be lucky enough to run into them in the lower levels. Paige tells them of some of the other rebel prisoners aboard the ship she was planning to break out, and the three of them, finally united, start plotting their means off Ren’s flagship when they overhear Hux in the corridor talking about Ren meditating in some inner sanctum with an order to be left alone with his own retinue on pain of death as he searches the Force or whatever for the location of Rey and Skywalker
Back onboard the New Republic ship Poe and Leia confer with the other generals as to what the Sith’s next move is going to be when they receive an incoming transmission from Kylo Ren himself.
As Kylo Ren and Leia Organa face off in what was to be their last confrontation, the tone and gravitas of their conversation somber, something flickers over the feed, and everybody on the New Republic ship’s bridge sees a blinding arc of light as one of the First Order troops behind Ren steps out of line and carves a blade of shimmering green in a downward arc directly behind him.
Outraged and caught off guard, Ren blocks the attack with his own blade, both lightsabers flickering with different energies, and as Finn’s voice shouts over the holo Poe realizes that not only has Finn given them an opening to hit Ren’s flagship, he may have even been able to stop this war in its tracks.
#sequel trilogy#Finn#Poe Dameron#Rose Tico#Paige Tico#Kylo Ren#Leia Organa#star wars au#I just…….. did not like the plots of the sequel trilogy movies that I DID see#Haven’t seen Rise of Skywalker#The other two just weren’t good#The whole Canto Bight sequence was silly#The idea of trusting Benicio Del Toro was ridiculous#Poe’s weird storyline#Just. All of it tbh#Iknow it seems like I make a lot of ‘This Character Lives! AUs but have you considered#Using characters more effectively in the beginning of stories can lead to more meaningful deaths later when you DO use that as a plot point#And like with this you can obviously be following Paige’s escape and sneaking around the Star Destroyer in between Finn and Rose’s scenes#as well as Poe’s scenes#Idk what Rey’s doing. I thought the writers’ and directors’ use of the OG characters was disappointing and ooc#So I don’t… especially care about Rey if I’m honest#Finn should have been the Jedi#and/or Rey should have been a Kenobi#‘‘Or’’ a lot of things#Lot of ways you could have done those characters#hounds speaks

the love of my entire life
#valtteri filppula#no one cares but i'm still gonna rant about this because you don't understanddddd#he's objectively one of the most succesful finnish hockey players. no not just in my biased opinion he really is!!#no other finn has won the triple gold (the stanley cup + olympic gold + world championships gold)#in the latter two he was also the captain of the team 😭#1000+ games played in the NHL#he's also won the swiss league and the CHL#he could have retired. moved to florida and bathe in his money#but what does he do? comes back to play in his home team 19 years after he left#(if we don't count the few games he played here in the NHL lock-out season 2012-13 before he got injured)#in his home team that currently does not even play in the top division??#as one of the owners of the team?? practically for FREE?!#because he wants to give back to his team and help them back to the top division 😭#i mean. what kinda person does that?? 😭😭😭😭😭#i'm bawling at how he walked in the locker room for the first time and introduced himself to everyone (with his nickname!!)#as if all them didn't know exactly who he was. come on he's a living legend??#he said he wants to be treated like everyone else in the team. they're just some boys#and he's won pretty much everything you can win in this sport#look how stark the locker room is in comparison to what he got used to in the fucking NHL and the swiss league 😭#at 40 years of age he's gonna be sitting in the same bus with these youngsters through the darkest of finland's winter#again i cannot emphasize enough that he could have retired to e.g. florida where he used to play for many years#(and where i think his wife is from? but i'm not sure so don't quote me on that)#he's so humble so smart so polite so friendly and on top of that he is handsome as fuck 😭😭😭😭😭😭#i've never had the chance to meet him but this season i really hope i can. although i'll probably cry loads and make an idiot out of myself#i was bawling my eyes off just watching him skate on the ice in his first match this season. it all felt so surreal. he's home again 😭#i've loved him for a thousand years (or just 20. but it feels like thousand years)#i'll love him for a thousand more 💙

everytime i see a show focused on a female character and all the fandom obsessing over some other guy i get skeptical but holy shit is that old dude fascinating
#BUT I STILL LOVE FIONNA… she needs more love she’s so fucked up. in ways she could never fathom#like it goes way beyond finn’s level of adventure seeking she felt so aimless in her life it’s manifested instead as#impulsivity to the point of actively harming others for her own enjoyment. which is!!! a fascinating character trait for her to have!!!!!!!!#what’s going on showrunners i love it . cant wait for her reckoning#plus it’s so funny that simon’s out here literally trying to ruin his life for them and they’re just like#ugh this old man who’s following us around and is lame. sure dude thanks for the help#so many fascinating choices. what a show. still sad most of the PostingTM ignores her wackiness#jay stop making posts where the whole post is in the tags#text✨

They say I did something bad
#Julie Finlay#csi crime scene investigation#csi cbs#csi vegas#the gig harbor killer#season 15#the fic in gifset form#all the violence hold the coma#that dumb sentence has been in my head since I used it in the tag#but seriously CSI#you could have given homegirl a fair fight#its not like she can't throw hands#so out of character to get blunt force trauma and then die#everything about finn after a certain point was ooc#because they knew she was done#and cue sadness#whether she was done personally or in character terms we will never know

I just don't think human brains were designed to get this many emails.
#if there is one (1) thing i could change about being a phd student it would be the number of emails i receive#roughly 2% of them are actually useful#but i have to read them all to figure out which ones are the 2%#finn is not doing a phd

Tommy's 'i have no limitations' after he shoots michael dead via bullet to the eye = his most depressing rote realisation, that he will do pretty much anything? (kill and fuck?)
there is the other way to read that line, which is that supposed god complex reading that the sigma boys enjoy, but TBH every time tommy goes near that line (or even the "you're not God" / "not yet" exchange he has with Charlie) it's usually so bitterly tongue in cheek it sounds like he says it like a blatant inverse relevation OF his limitations.
but the way Tommy says that after Michael, after killing his cousin which he...probably didn't really want to do except for the way Michael absolutely wouldn't let him be. Tommy couldn't guarantee everyone's safety back in England (especially Charlie) after his own impending death unless Michael and his vengeance campaign was out of the picture.
Therefore: no limitations. he does what it takes
#that 'you're not god' cracked me up so much. my then-6 year old screaming it at me when i was ordering him to help make his own bed#'i don't have to do what you say! you're not god!'#i choked back the 'not yet' by pure raw willpower#the other line that reeks of inversion is 'i am just an extreme example of what a working class man can achieve'#yeah nah mate. working class =/= serious crime empire#and tommy KNOWS that#anyway speculating here because the evolution of the 'no limitations' motif when he is so constrained is fascinating#also i consider a lot about michael and tommy's motive to kill him#because i think similar to finn tommy would have been satisfied just letting them walk away#i always felt he had a grave regret for his 'in' to Jack Nelson needing to be via Michael because otherwise they could have just....moved o#alas circumstances conspire and tommy will use what he had

thinkinggg about. race in adventure time
#random thoughts#adventure time#okay so in the original show there were very few characters of color because humans are basically extinct#and ive seen some people discuss how at appropriates aave despite the mc being a white boy#and (more importantly in my opinion) most of the staff being white#and then in fionna and cake they decided to make marshall lee physically black#and you'd think his mom'd be white right? because marceline's whole thing is her being divided between two halves of herself#which could be sooo an allegory for growing up biracial#but like? they made his mom also black?#which i assume they did because they didn't want to make it a 'white parent is toxic towards their black child' storyline#buuuut since marceline's physical characteristics were tied to her demon bloodline and marshall obviously takes after his mom...?#like you could make the argument that they're implying SOMETHING there#and adding onto the theme of characters voiced by white actors being voiced by poc in the genderswap (marshall y cake)#DID YOU KNOW FLAME PRINCE IS VOICED BY HANNIBAL BURESS???#which like. i was thinking about how flame princess's role in the show seemed kinda like#okay so there's this video by harriyanna hook about the disposable black girlfriend trope in svtfoe specifically#and flame princess (from what i remember dude i gotta rewatch at) seemed to have been used by finn narratively to grow as a character?#and also there's the whole 'pb stealing a part of fp's culture for what she claims is the greater good' thing#and her dad's voiced by the president from rick and morty. and he's a strict dad who won't let his daughter date a white boy#(which is SUBVERTED when he reveals he keeps her contained for safety purposes or whatever but it's still there)#at is kind of fucked with parents in general tbh#god i need to rewatch it. analyze it

im thinking abt making a tiktok explaining why the lich's wish altered reality existing in adventure time makes sense, because ppl don't seem to get it and i understand that because it is soo confusing but i've thought about it a lot and i'm confident i FINALLY figured it out
#instafuck#at#its confusing because you have to realize that prismo knew something we didn't the entire time#which is that people can be wished BACK into existence#as finn is after jake's wish. so prismo knew the lich could be wished back into existence#and after choosing to help jake had to get him to make a wish that resulted in the lich still existing in their reality AND having#used his wish so he cant be wished back into existence#and can no longer make a wish#its really cool actually i could explain it here too but idk

i think half casters is just the way to go for me when playing dnd, or a multi class that gives me meleee and magic. i love having the Option for magic esp utility magic but in combat i get Too overwhelmed if i only have a list of spells in front of me. so estelle has been a blast as a paladin and valentins rogue magic shit has been great
#i do gotta figure out how to bard combat for finn tho lol#i was worried id forget all my cool shit since im starting valentin at level 12 but it went well :3#also combining rogue w bladesong is great but Wild tbh like. w bladesong active at lvl 12 w 20dex and 18int his AC is 20#and thats without using shield or mage armor two spells i have access to if i really wanna fuckin go wild#i WILL get fucked up if i get hit but during the combat last night he just. could not get hit#the one spell save was a dex so i could evasion it

That would have been an amazing storyline for him and a truly beautiful scene. Now I am even angrier about the wasted potential in the sequel trilogy.
you know what? I hadn’t thought about it in a while, but I am actually still very upset that we never got to see John Boyega give an impassioned speech to an army of hostile stormtroopers, and partway through the speech just one trooper lays her blaster down and takes her helmet off, and by the end Finn has won them over and they all take their helmets off as the music swells, which signifies their change of allegiance and also reminds us the audience that underneath all those indistinguishable white helmets are people with faces and personalities and hopes and dreams and connections to the Force, people who will be led by one of their own as they rise up in rebellion against the fascist empire that treated them like interchangeable cannon fodder.
we should have had that in a movie! and we didn’t! and I’m still mad about it!
#i have been angry about that wasted potential ever since the final movie came out#and honestly#i probably always will be#they can call me an over-dramatic fan#they're probably correct#but i will never forget how they gave us characters like rey#who could have shown that you don't have to come from a special place or bloodline to be a hero#and finn#who could have been a beacon of hope to the stormtroopers#reminding them that they are so much more than throwaways for the empire and the first order#and then they took those characters and did...what they did😔#(sigh)#i have to stop now or i'll be ranting all day
