#it was painful to watch

[violet-knights]

Everyone talking about the celibacy and slow burn part of the rg interview and ignoring that at least half of the interview was unnecessaryly gendered and grossly misogynistic

[hoperays-song]

Dating? Never.

Meena: Are you dating Ryan?

Johnny: What? Fuck no, there's nothing going on between Ryan and me. Why would you think that?

Ryan: *walks by*

Johnny: Hey, love! *kisses his cheek* You're looking amazing as always!

Ryan: *kisses Johnny on the cheek, smiles, and walks away*

Meena:

Ash:

Johnny: Anyway, you guys are exaggerating. Stop seeing romance where there is none.

what even was that game?? how did we go from being down 2-0 and pulling ahead 3-2 just to lose in the last few minutes???

[the-box-of-mine]

Huh what a bad day

[chessb0r3d]

Analysis so bad you don't even know what it's talking about anymore.

[unraveling-fast-its-true]

The creators of that and also the 2nd half of season 1 were sick, sick

Society if Black Butler Season 2 wasn't so Fucking Weird

Incredibly alarming that talks of “peace” in Gaza seem to extend no further than a ceasefire. How do you think they’re gonna start off where they left off themselves? Their houses are destroyed, so many have lost mothers and fathers and brothers and children, they still have no clean water and no food. Any area Israel withdraws out of is an area it already knows has been rendered inhospitable. There was even a direct quote by some IOF soldier gleefully stating how he “wasn’t sure Palestinians could go back to their homes.” So what happens when the US “succeeds at negotiating a ceasefire”? Who will be responsible for helping the Palestinians rebuild all that they’ve lost?

I Saw the TV Glow is such a uniquely, devastatingly queer story. Two queer kids trapped in suburbia. Both of them sensing something isn’t quite right with their lives. Both of them knowing that wrongness could kill them. One of them getting out, trying on new names, new places, new ways of being. Trying to claw her way to fully understanding herself, trying to grasp the true reality of her existence. Succeeding. Going back to help the other, to try so desperately to rescue an old friend, to show the path forward. Being called crazy. Because, to someone who hasn’t gotten out, even trying seems crazy. Feels crazy. Looks, on the surface, like dying.

And to have that other queer kid be so terrified of the internal revolution that is accepting himself that he inadvertently stays buried. Stays in a situation that will suffocate him. Choke the life out of him. Choke the joy out of him. Have him so terrified of possibly being crazy that he, instead, lives with a repression so extreme, it quite literally is killing him. And still, still, he apologizes for it. Apologizes over and over and over, to people who don’t see him. Who never have. Who never will. Because it’s better than being crazy. Because it’s safer than digging his way out. Killing the image everyone sees to rise again as something free and true and authentic. My god. My god, this movie. It shattered me.

But if your favorite character isn't on the floor panting and dying and in horrible pain in a terrible situation then what's even the point

[nor5tar]

Oh, wait, is that why so many adult humour shows literally have the characters get ice or ice cream when they’re feeling sexually frustrated? That makes more sense than what I thought the joke was.

Must be🤔 I never thought of that

Reminds me of when I started watching Eileen, and I gave up after like 15 minutes because I thought it was going to be a psychological thriller and was just cataclysmically horny🥲

The main girl literally shoves snow down her skirt in the first scene and I was like??? Girl??? You're going to be so cold and wet why would you do that

[taiturner]

What about you? Do you like girls? Boys? I... I think that I like TV shows.

kon ends up developing a pretty substantial kryptonite immunity and it’s purely cause supers are just…. weak ass motherfuckers with pain. yeah sure it dampens their powers and hurts like a motherfucker but with exposure and not just dealing with a large amount of pain very shortly and only once every so often kon just pushes through it.

he refuses to explain how though and that’s cause he let tim just poke him with a sharp kryptonite shard to get used to being around it so it’s not so jarring when it happens and then he stubbed his toe and sobbed like a bitch and he decided he needed to get higher pain tolerance.

kon refuses to explain how because he is not telling everyone he cried over a stubbed toe and that was the tipping point and tim refuses to explain cause he doesn’t need people think he’s going into supervillain territory again.

this does get revealed by kon getting stabbed with a very sharp shard once on a mission with clark and clark panicking while kon just takes it out and puts it in a container he keeps with him now. he then looks clark dead in his eyes and says “what you think that’s bad? you’re just weak. loser.” and then continues on as normal

there was also a period of time where kon had a kryptonite necklace so he could get piercings without messing the recovery process up. it was a very difficult time period cause he couldn’t take it off or else the piercings would heal way too quickly.

We’ve got forever to figure out the rest

[frownyalfred]

I 100% believe Lois Lane requested the presence of Bruce Wayne in her delivery room.

Nobody, not even the League, understood until it was time to give birth and Clark froze up at her bedside. Bruce was there to coach them both through it, as Clark’s friend and as Lois’ human reinforcements.

(Bruce flew to Metropolis in a helicopter when he got the news. He found Clark ashen and trembling at Lois’ side, eyes clenched shut as she screamed. He slid into place like he’d never been missing, talking Lois AND Clark through it like he delivered babies every day of the week)

we need to talk about the Blue Light.

how it represents a safe passage forward from Death, and more broadly it symbolises the idea of a personal, individual to each person Heaven;

how the person usually isn't as directly lit as Edwin here, but from a side?

and how, when Charles looks at Edwin with the slightest smile and utter conviction in his eyes, Edwin is completely bathed in blue?

and. how Edwin, dead on a technical error, never got to see where his soul really belonged when it comes to his afterlife— and yet it's doubtless, from this shot alone, what his original destination would be.
