#it's kind of irking me

[youreyesaremyfavoritecolor]

not my usual stuff but i want to share because i'm bored and my poems don't get much love :( (which i get bc their not the best)

no one asked for this but why not?

here's a what's in my bag/purse!!-for reference it's a black purse that is super cunt and i got it for like 8 dollars at a thrift stores 3-4 years ago :)

small front pocket-tissues, paint samples, and a folded piece of paper with vinyls to look for.

pocket before the zipper(idk how to describe it)-small journal, expired lipgloss(coconut flavored), bottle opener, and claw clip.

main pocket(zipper pocket)-wallet for cash and cards(an old coach wallet from late 90's early 00's?), wallet for coins(crocheted, bought at a flea), big journal.

pocket after zipper-pencil and camcorder.

okay that's all! when i get my new camera maybe i'll take a picture of the bag and contents? idk if y'all would be interested but if you are lmk.

i'll probably post more poetry tomorrow, or maybe tonight who knows.

Really? A Ramona pfp for your discord? Cliche much Penny?

well usually nowadays since I am an adult i like to do things that i enjoy and that make me feel happy without nearly as much interest in whether or not it would be cooler or more unique to deprive myself of it :) frankly if ur first response to that is to use my interests as justification to keep me in a box that in ur mind u have clearly already put me in, that's a you problem!

This singular frame was all it took to undo my very extreme hatred of Adam, Vivienne Medrano how dare you make me feel sympathy for this man-

Like, Adam before this scene? A blatant misogynist and a hypocrite who unabashedly revels in sinners' suffering. A guy who has no regard for anyone else, and who pisses pretty much every viewer off with patronizing jabs like "sorry sweetie" and "try to chillax, babe." Ugh, disgusting.

As the first man, it seems like he got an easy pass into Heaven. Maybe the angels were just saving face, given that their core pair of humans both took the fruit of knowledge of good and evil willingly, ordaining Adam on the technicality that "Eve did it first." But I think we can all agree that it was not on the merit of Adam's virtue.

And then Charlie draws blood during their fight in Episode 8, and, for the first time, Adam genuinely realizes he can be hurt. Like, for the first time in the duration of the show, in his entire fucking existence, someone shows him that he is not, in fact, an all-powerful symbol of power and superiority. He's just a guy with privilege who is just as vulnerable, just as flawed, just as human as the rest of them.

But once the mask is shattered, revealing the rather unexceptional man underneath, does Adam back down? Of course not—he doubles down. There's nothing worse than a narcissist who is virtually incapable of seeing the error of their ways, even when they're clearly backed into a corner. Bruised and bloody, he bellows that he's THE man; everybody should worship him.

For me, that pretty much hit the nail in the coffin. There was no redeeming a character like Adam (ironic, since he's one of the few characters in the show not in need of redemption).

So isn't it fitting, then, that his death didn't happen in some grand display requiring all of Lucifer or Charlie's might? Isn't it fitting that Adam falls to Niffty—not Lucifer, not an overlord, but a common sinner, who sees him as nothing more than a foot soldier that needs to be eliminated, a pest as easily squashed as a roach? For someone as self-aggrandizing as Adam, this has to be one of the most humiliating ways to die. The perfect end for an insufferable antagonist.

But nooo, Vivziepop didn't end it there.

Because INSTEAD, we hear Lute's heart-wrenching screams as she realizes that Adam has just been defeated; we see the look on her tear-streaked face when it registers just how badly he's been injured. The fear in her eyes at the prospect of living in a world without the angel she idolizes, the man she serves.

She's not concerned that she's just lost her arm, or that Vaggie is standing right there. In that moment, the only person in Hell is Adam, and all she wants is for him to stay with her.

Adam could have easily dismissed her feelings entirely. He could have spent his last breath hurling one last insult at Lucifer, getting the satisfaction of having the last word before his death. He could have thrown himself a pity party and cursed his fate.

Instead, this greedy, selfish, murderous fiend has the audacity to see Lute in his field of vision and flash her one last, tender smile.

We don't know for sure what Adam was thinking in this shot, but personally, I think it was something along the lines of I lost. Proud of you, Lute. I'll miss you. Goodbye.

Whatever his final thoughts are, we can surmise from his expression alone that he's accepted his fate, and that he's grateful his last seconds alive are locking eyes with someone who's important to him. Someone he cares about.

And THAT—that was enough to crack through that thick shell of hatred I'd developed for Adam and shatter it like the mask he wore for seven and a half episodes of the show. THAT 8-second moment was enough to make me reconsider my stance on Adam as an irredeemable villain.

(CURSE YOU, VIVIENNE!!!)

Does this scene cancel out all the heinous things Adam does throughout Season 1? All the lives he destroys, all the pain he causes to thousands upon thousands of souls? Absolutely not. But it does change my perception of Adam from "obnoxious egomaniac with no self-awareness" to "obnoxious egomaniac with no self-awareness that is a product of the flawed system he perpetuates."

And, I gotta wonder, what would Adam have been like if Heaven had been different?

i know everyone is praising ify for how he’s playing this season and i do think he is slaying but some of his moves kinda bother me😭😭😭i didn’t like how he took all the drug juice i feel like brennan obviously had a plan for how that was gonna work with persimmon dead AND everyone would’ve got a cool moment with the drugs but he kinda just took it :/ obviously it worked out and it did lead to that convo w liv and russell but idk i felt like jacob in that moment and i’m not even playing LMAO like i would rather have just seen what brennan was gonna do and got to see how everyone was gonna take it

[ccbatman]

what if i said hal's mom called him "hally" specifically as a play on halley's comet, huh. what if i said she did that because she knew no matter how far he went, he'd always come back to her, hm. what then.

[daffi-990]

Fun (despair inducing) flavor of post on here is a dedicated principled levelhead spending about 2000 words going "No One Is Saying" in regards to the most uncharitable, unreasonable rightwing-paranoiac strawman interpretation of their stance on the left-wing issue du jour. And then you open the notes and it's chock fulla people who are, in fact, Saying

[cacodaemonia]

You know, I get things like "don't tag your hate" to a degree, but I also think it's absurd to demand that no one ever says anything negative about the show/character/whatever that you like. People are allowed to dislike things or criticize certain aspects of them just as much as you're allowed to like those things and talk about how much you enjoy certain aspects. And you can disagree with them. That's also totally fine.

Obviously, attacking or making fun of people who have different opinions is an entirely separate matter, but it's incredibly bizarre to me when someone says, "You're not allowed to discuss what you don't like about this because I like it." In what universe is that a reasonable expectation?

[dragon-cookies]

I'm so immensely frustrated that the turning point for Charlie forgiving Vaggie happened while Vaggie wasn't even in the room. I want to see Vaggie tell Charlie herself that she didn't want to break her heart and reveal she used to be an exterminator. I want these girls to actually act like a couple and talk things out together god

chappell roan is 100% correct when she says fans aren’t entitled to her time because they’re literal strangers. and i will die on that hill, HOWEVER, i don’t want to hear you defending chappell roan if you got mad when doja cat said the exact same shit

I was discussing this in the server but I feel like sharing it here too.

I don’t feel like we talk about the umbrella scene enough regarding Adrien’s point of view and that’s a crime! People argue about whether the feelings he develops for Marinette are romantic or platonic in this moment but I believe that isn’t important.

What’s important is how he’s opened his heart to this stranger who assumed the worst of him and in return created a unique, unbreakable connection that he’s always dreamed of having. A friend! It was at this moment that he opened up his heart to Marinette and kept it open, evident in how he’s always tried to initiate conversation with her or interact with her with baby steps. The admiration he has of her starts from the umbrella scene and hasn’t stopped growing since that day.

I feel like it’s really beautiful. 

And I wish more people in the fandom appreciated it too.

Just read about another (old) drama within the fandom and damn. I was just speaking with a fellow tumblrer how delicate this fandom as a whole is, with opposite ends of varying spectrums trying to coexist.

I guess that's what you get in a fanbase of a pretty, but traumatized to the point of hypersexual numbness game character. Selective perspective at best, blatant distortion of the character at worst.

I literally cannot keep my dash clean of sexual Astarion content, which is something I never knew would be this difficult given the character's story.

I keep seeing people spam "IS THIS LORE???" in every single QSMP streamer's chat whenever anything happens (which is annoying), but I think when it comes to lore, people should think about it this way: it's lore if you want it to be lore.

I personally don't care if the QSMP has lore or not (though I'd be shocked if it didn't) because it's fun seeing my favorite English and Spanish streamers interact. I don't think chat should be pressuring streamers to confirm whether something is "lore" or "not lore". That's silly.

I think the best stories are made from weird coincidences and improv. It's nice to sit back and see how things play out. Karmaland was a perfect example of this, and I hope QSMP gives fans (especially English fans) a chance to learn this mentality. It's a lot more fun!

My personal question: Can Lunar be considered an age regressor? He actively reverts into a younger mental space as a way to cope and feel comfortable.

Cause if he Is, Gemini pretty much just shamed him for being a regressor, and that's NOT okay.

Honestly, I think they can be considered an age regressor, yeah!!

I actually remember watching the therapy episode and thinking like, "oh sweet, big day for agere Lunar truthers!" bc it's a headcanon I see a lot and it's also a headcanon that doesn't require a lot of changing of Lunar's character. It just Makes Sense!

On top of that, you could also read Lunar as having autism and/or adhd (< which was actually canon at one point but I think it's retconned now 😔) which is honestly how I always interpreted Lunar from the very start bc... motions at them. yeag.

But regardless, Gemini did still shame that part of Lunar and whether it's because of age regression or because of neurodivergence or even not because of anything other than They Want To, that's still is just. kinda flat out rude!! I don't think it's causing any problems so like. come on man. 😭
