Already said this but since everybody is too busy on the failmance happening im gonna say it again: Vi starting their confrontation by saying ânever thought [my sister] would orphan kidsâ only to be stopped from killing jinx. By an orphan kid.
#its about how jinx specifically calls vi her sister. thats WHY she has to kill her she wont balk from that#but vi disowns her as a sister (crazy bc she was her only blood family but thats nbd in zaun) bc thats the only way she can kill jinx#vi just GASSED zaun and is a COP now jinx should be disowning her#it wouldve been SO good if jinx flipped the s1 finale situation#and started asking what vander or mylo or claggor would think while wearing his stolen goggles#if vi wasnt so hot yall would actually call out her bad decisions or red flags but go off ig#bc this scene is also after she watched jayve KILL a kid. not even orphan one! and she was LITERALLY like âso? kids be dying.â#anyway the fact that isha is also aware of cait trying to shoot jinx so she hugs her. puts her head in the mf WAY on purpose#and vi has to have the same moment as jayce. âwhat have we doneâ you became the very thing you swore to hate sweetheart :))#to have a child from zaun. your home btw. look at you in an enforcer uniform and shes full of fear and rightous fury.#its that day on the bridge again. vi had that same look in her eyes when vander carried her away. when did her lines and her values become#so easy to sway. well bc she loves someone of course. but she betrays you too. i can only laugh#its stupid bc s1 jinx is literally only doing what vi grew up wanting to do for vander. like actually.#bc its the same that they cannot steal from topside so it wouldve meant stealing and fighting and eventually killing people in oposition#like your sister was building nail bombs at 9 years old. you encouraged her. âtheyll work eventuallyâ and then she kills and vis like đ°đ°đ€ąđ€ą#bc she only sees silco. ugh kill me#can somebody talk about THEM please yknow one of the main focuses of the show#arcane#netflix arcane#arcane season 2#arcane s2#arcane spoilers

Atla live action đ
#thats my honest reaction đ#to be fair ive only seen 20 minutes of the s1 finale bc my parents are watching it but. mmmmm kinda mid#like. the casting is definitely an improvement since the last time they tried a live action but it feels like the writing falls flat#or maybe im being harsh bc ive only heard negative criticism on it beforehand. but fr anytime u bring up the original its already#good and not just because its the original. so much fucking detail went into it to the point of someone noticing azula wielding mai's knive#to how well thought out irohs character is used as a way of uniting the cast especially as zukos foil#i heard that sokkas sexism was toned down and i have to agree that feels like a cheap move. like i get WHY they think it would be better#but its not about how that reflects on real world its about how it affects the story. sokka starts out as a misogynistic asshole because#it makes it that much more impactful when he changes. toning that down makes it flatter and makes his character development weak#and someone pointed out they didnt even make him wear the kyoshi warrior uniform and i know it feels like such a small detail but#come on man. they did that in the original because not only does it help him really walk in their shoes - wearing 'feminine' clothing and#makeup and having suki explain its significance but it also ties in with the shows theme of harmony and intersectionality#i was also disappointed when they had the fire sages explain how the water tribe draws power from the moon because in the original it was#IROH who explained it to aang and everyone else BECAUSE we as the audience is under the impression hes with the 'bad guys'#and it builds up to how he learned from the other nations which reconciles his past as a war general and his character overall#AND its an excellent starting point for the cast and audience to understand how the nations arent as closed off as you would think#plus you would think its only fire nation doing propaganda but they expanded on that with earth kingdom censorship and it WORKS#a lot of things in the live action also feel arbitrary like. they gave momo a near death experience for 5 minutes for no reason#im firmly on the stance of bringing back filler moments instead of putting major events right after each other so that u give your#audience a sense of time passing and to really absorb the story. but i think thats more like shock value than filler and yeah its a small#thing to gripe about but those things build up and its really annoying. the thing abt avatar filler moments is that however small#its at least meaningful. hell even the beach episode emphasizes how isolated zuko and his friends are as child soldiers#i also swore to never watch the first live action since it was that bad but i really liked the stylized tattoos they used for aang#anyway. those arejust my thoughts. im not gonna watch the rest because im a ride or die for the original aftr growing up and#rewatching it at least 20 times as a kid. but theres definitely room for improvement and i wish ppl wouldnt take it as 'better' just cuz#netflix is adapting it. i wouldve killed for them to just reanimate the entire avatar series and touch NOTHING ELSE no redub#no changes to the story. just reanimate the thing and leave the rest alone and youd make easy money just the same#ALSO its very jarring not hearing jack desena and dante basco voicing sokka and zuko cause their voices were the most recognizable to me#i get that its because its live action but im allowed to feel a little sad abt that. and uncle irohs accent was really soothing#yapping

i remembered that writing my own little reviews was supposed to be part of my whole âwatch a movie every weekâ thing and i had a surprisingly large amount to say about the nutty professor
#so like the only criteria for this movie thing is i just have to watch a movie ive never seen before#that one won this week bc it was easy to find browsing netflix and not too long and didnt seem like something id care about#sometimes that helps when youre worried about your ability to focus#so like i expected it to be fatphobic. the weird part was the entire message of the movie was its fucked up to make fun of people for being#fat. BUt the movie ALSO does that ITSELF? and i guess its a 'love the sinner hate the sin' kinda mentality#but even that doesnt explain the cognitive dissonance???#anyway im just so hung up on that

take care of me (like i take care of you) pt.1
pairing: jemily x adhd!reader word count: 2.4k warnings: emily smokes in this one (SMOKING IS DANGEROUS LADIES, GAYS AND THEYS pls dont ruin ur lungs), reader is mentioned to vape but it is not shown, female terms of endearment - "little miss", y/n has a minor flashback to a previous relationship where they got belittled that leads to an rsd breakdown a/n: THIS PART GOT TOO LONG AND I DIDNT EVEN GET TO THE MAIN PLOT POINT UNTIL 2.4k WORDS IN so its being split into two parts teehee :) also... i should have put this in the first part, but the house they live in is jj's house from cm evolution bc i'm quite literally obsessed with it anyway pls ignore the fact that it's clearly not three femme presenting humans holding hands i couldn't find a gif like that anywhere
you all had been blessed with a whole week off. a whole week that you got to spend with your favorite people in the entire world and not have to worry about being called in.
it had been ages since you had a whole week where you didnât have to worry about a single work thing bothering you. the last time you had done this, you had convinced your then best friends to take you to their favorite park and have a picnic, go to the movies and even take you to the trader joes to get your favorite snacks. but this week, this week was different. firstly, you were now dating your best friends, and had been told to stay at theirs as long as you wanted to. you hadnât left except to go to your apartment and grab a suitcase full of clothes. secondly, the case you had just finished drained the hell out of the three of you. a majority of the time was spent curled up on the couch cycling through shows on netflix and amazon prime, everyone taking turns picking a show to watch while eating leftover chinese food and cuddling. but today you were determined to get out of the house.
the local zoo was holding a sale to celebrate the birth of a new baby giraffe, which happened to be some of your favorite animals ever. so naturally, you got three tickets for the three of you last night and made sure you were up before both of your girlfriends to ensure you got your hands on tickets to feed the giraffes. it had been on your bucket list for a long time. ever since you were little, giraffes had intrigued you. they just looked so soft and cuddly. and you wanted to touch one. so, so bad.Â
which is how you found yourself up at seven in the morning, squeezing yourself out from between the two older women and seaking downstairs, curling up in the armchair that you had claimed to yourself and grabbing your ipad. well, technically it was emilyâs but she barely used it so therefore it was yours. you had all your favorite games on it anyway, so it was only fair that you used it more since you liked to play games on the jet. making sure you got to the website bright and early, you went to the page where you needed to buy the giraffe experience tickets and waited patiently until 7:30am hit and the first wave of tickets were sent out into the interwebs. within minutes, you had the three tickets you needed in your email. the next step to buttering up your girlfriends for a day at the zoo was to make breakfast.Â
you knew exactly what breakfast each of them liked, and had memorized it a few weeks prior for moments like this. emily loved her bacon crispy, her eggs over easy and a marlboro gold by the bay window. jj, on the other hand, loved when you made the pillsbury biscuits with honey and butter, some sort of potato and getting kisses from both you and emily. considering emily usually woke up a little bit before you and jj on a typical day, you decided to start on hers first. you grabbed the box of cigarettes from her purse and put it over by the seat next to the kitchen table, opening the window so the cool dc air would flow through the kitchen as you cooked. sometimes you were tempted to light up a cigarette and see what they were like, but you couldnât let go of your favorite fruity little flavors. that was another thing you added to your mental list of things to never let emily find out, since you knew sheâd give you the look that she gives you whenever youâve somehow disappointed her.Â
jj had found out by a total accident a while ago, clocking your antsiness before you even did. you had stepped out for a breath of fresh air, not realizing that jj had followed you until you were mid hit and felt a presence behind you. while she had been disappointed, she knew that the oral fixation couldnât be stopped if you werenât chewing on your chewy necklace. you did your best to wear it, but sometimes the need for the nicotine buzz was stronger than your little necklace and you wanted to feel the dopamine. she sat with you outside while you tried to explain the way it made you feel, and she sat there the whole time and listened to you. she made you promise to lower the nicotine level, which you agreed to, but kept forgetting to go down whenever you stopped by the shop.Â
despite the fear looming over you of disappointing emily, you couldnât help but realize everything had been so easy with them. from communicating your needs to even just asking for them to sit with you. they made sure you were their number one priority. to this day, you were still scared of waking up in your dingy one bedroom all alone and still single. but now, here you were, slowly moving your stuff into their apartment and preparing to leave most of your old appliances at the local goodwill. it was a pleasant change, knowing you were moving somewhere nice and calm and where people supported your every move. where they wouldnât yell at you when you forgot to refill the soap, or restock the cheese drawer after a grocery trip.Â
shaking yourself out of your thoughts, you heard the bedroom door creak open and the padding of emilyâs sock feet grew louder as you started smiling.Â
âyouâre up early,â emily beamed at you. âwhatâre you doing?â
âtaking care of my girlfriends.â you shrugged. âcigs are on the table for you next to your window.âÂ
emily narrowed her eyes playfully at you. âyou have a plan for today, donât you?âÂ
âmaybe i do, maybe i donât.â you playfully smiled back at her. âyou gotta wait for jayje to wake up.âÂ
âyou know, you can be bad at hiding things sometimes.â emily came over to you and wrapped her arms around your waist. âyou have the cheesiest grin on your face right now.âÂ
âcan i not just make breakfast for my girlfriends when i want to?âÂ
emily placed a peck on your cheek, then captured your lips in a kiss. âyouâre a devious little thing, lovey.âÂ
âand you adore me for it.â
âthat i do.âÂ
you placed another kiss on emilyâs lips before ushering her over to her window, grabbing the sheet pan of biscuits and slipping them into the oven. you relished these small moments with emily, where it was the two of you. you got these moments with jj at night, since emily typically stayed at the office later than you guys did. taking the mornings with just the two of you was something you tried to do more often than not, since you craved quality time with both of them. you loved having time with both of them together, but alone time with each of your girlfriends was something you cherished. you made sure to get emilyâs coffee mug filled just the right amount and bought it over to the table, wrapping your arms around her from behind as the smoke flowed from between her lips. you had at least five more minutes before you had to start cooking the bacon and eggs, which meant you could sit with emily and bask in the moment.Â
before you knew it, jj made her way into the kitchen, smiling widely as she came and wrapped her arms around you as you stood over the pan. your eyes momentarily closed as you leaned back into the blonde, letting her place a few kisses on your neck before turning around and capturing her in a kiss. you smiled at her before turning back to the bacon, making sure that side was crispy as you could get it before flipping it around.Â
âwhatâs all this?â
âwell⊠i uh, i had a plan for us today.â
you saw emily struggle to hold back a chuckle out of the corner of your eye.
âcan you guys both be ready by nine thirty? no wait, be ready by nine fifteen and in the car by nine thirty because we need to be at the place by nine fifty in order to beat the crowds and get to where we need to be on time for our tickets because our tickets are for eleven.â you paused, looking at your girlfriends. âcan you be ready by nine fifteen?âÂ
âi mean, yeah.â jj looked over to emily. âdo you know the plan?â
âjust that little miss over here woke up before us and i woke up with no blankets on me because in the midst of everything you stole all of them.â emily joked, poking her tongue out at jj.Â
you started rocking up to the balls of your feet. âso um⊠there might be a new baby giraffe at the zoo and i might have gotten us tickets because i really really wanted to see the giraffes and theyâre my favorites and they were running a sale because of the new baby and--âÂ
jj chuckled. âyou are adorable, did you know that?âÂ
âis that a yes?â
âof course it's a yes, bubs.â jj placed a kiss on your cheek. âiâd love to go to the zoo with you.âÂ
âemmy?â you looked over to emily, the new nickname slipping out of your lips with ease. âcan you come to the zoo with us? youâll probably say no which is okay because i can always invite penelope or tara but-â
âwhy would you think iâd say no?âÂ
negative feelings overflowed your system as you remembered vividly the face that had been pulled when you asked to go to the zoo or do anything you considered fun. you felt yourself slipping into a dissociative state, fingers looking for something to stim on as you worked through your feelings. the harsh words of âwhy the fuck would you want to go to the zoo?â reverberated through as memories of one of your previous flings flew to the front of your mind. the shame you felt for wanting to enjoy your time together became unbearable and overwhelming, making you realize that your girlfriends could become annoyed with you like that and change their minds. what if they thought you were childish? what if they figured out you were too much for them?
emily looked over to jj. âdid i say something?âÂ
âi donât know. i donât think so?â jj looked over to you, your eyes glazed over. âum.. shit wait, okay, i think theyâre having an rsd episode, iâll get their work bag. the marble fidget they use to calm down is in there.âÂ
emily scooted out from behind the table as she put her cigarette out, sneaking behind you to grab the pan off the stove before the bacon burned. she put her arms around you and pulled you close, running her hand up and down your back lightly as she waited for you to come out of your funk. she locked eyes with jj as she came back into the room, digging through the bag for the fidget toy in question, sticking it in your hands before you could start scratching at the side of your nails. a few minutes passed before you came back, the feeling of both emily and jjâs arms around you grounding you in the present, pushing the negative feelings to the back of your mind.
ââm sorry.âÂ
âit's okay, lovey. do you want to talk about it?âÂ
âum⊠can you just⊠iâm not too much, right?âÂ
emily pulled back. âwhat makes you think that?âÂ
âwhenever i asked about doing things that i liked, nobody really wanted to do them.â you looked down shamefully. âi shouldnât have presumed youâd want to go with me.âÂ
ây/n y/l/nâ blue eyes looked into your own. âyou don't need to hide yourself with us. never hide yourself with us. youâre allowed to have your likes and act on them.âÂ
âbut-â
âah ah,â jj tilted your chin up, making you look at her. âdonât you dare.âÂ
it was almost as if a switch had been flipped in jj, her eyes darkening slightly as she stared at you. it caused your legs to turn to jelly, rendering you practically useless in your girlfriend's arms. you werenât entirely sure what was happening, but it sent a wave of excitement through your veins.Â
âweâre going to the zoo with you, weâre going to have fun, and weâre going to have a good day.â jj shot emily a âwe need to talk about thisâ glance before continuing. âgo get dressed and ready for the day, weâll finish our breakfasts and go enjoy the zoo.â she gave you a pointed look. âcapeesh?â
all you could do was nod, your eyes widening in⊠whatever this feeling was that you were feeling.Â
âwords, y/n.â
ây-yes.â you swallowed. âokay.âÂ
jj smiled, switching back to her normal self and placing a kiss on your lips. âthank you for breakfast, by the way. it smells delicious.âÂ
you shyly smiled back. âi wanted you to be in a good mood before i asked you to go to the zoo.âÂ
emily pulled you in for a hug. âyou never have to do anything for us to be in a good mood around you. we-â she paused. âthereâs nothing you could do to put us in a foul mood.âÂ
âare you sure?â
âweâre sure. now go get ready, lovey, weâll be up in a little bit when we finish our breakfast.â it was emilyâs turn to kiss you. âdonât forget your meds.â
âoh shit, my meds!âÂ
emily and jj watched you run out of the room, both of the older women chuckling. emily wrapped her arms around jj, placing her head on her shoulder.Â
âweâre going to need to work on talking about feelings, huh?âÂ
jj nodded. âit seems like it.âÂ
âwould it be too much to castrate the exes who hurt them?âÂ
âuh⊠yes? weâre not castrating anyone.â jj lightly slapped emilyâs arm. âgo finish your bacon, we have places to be.âÂ
âwe do need to have a serious talk with them about it, at some point.â
âyeah,â jj agreed. âlets just⊠they need to know weâre here for them. letâs focus on them the rest of the week and go from there.âÂ
emily nodded. âweâll go from there.â

the camerawork is So weird for no reason & nami & zolo seem to be competing for worst actor
the frenzy with which tumblr is advertising one piece netflix is sad considering its not good so far
#the writing is also rly bad i think this is just the work ethic of netflix#bc cobra kai's dialogue flow is very similar#& on another note zolo's actor is nothing like him??? he was never monotone & aloof#same w nami the girl cant act either so they both resort to monotone sarcasm bc its easy

Just pitching in since I see so much discourse about will they or wonât they that I think we kind of lost the essence of the story: I mean yes, Netflix is promoting the whole are they going to be endgame or not, tune in to find out but I think thatâs just a generic marketing tactic.Iâve honestly been ignoring it.
Also, Lisa doesnât strike me as the type of writer that would push only her own personal agenda or politics to a tv show, especially one that has critical acclaim as yr. Thatâs not what true storytelling is about. Please bear with me (apologies in advance for the long response !) but hereâs my v long winded reasoning:
The theme has always been love v. duty & the monarchy is the enemy. Wille is on a Heroâs Journey - he is ultimately the Main Character; the Young Royal. Whatâs great about The Heroâs Journey is that itâs easy to follow and makes for great storytelling despite its predictability. I think some people here may have touched upon this so I am simply expanding:
As a viewer, we follow Wille and get to know him. Heâs a likable character and we easily root for him and feel for him when we learn about the power dynamics in play; specifically how he feels caged as a prince. Then we enter into a Call for Adventure: him falling for Simon and the high stakes he enters when his brother passes and he is now Crown Prince.
This, then, propels the story forward, given the stakes are stacked up and itâs not looking good for Wille, especially after he/we find out August was the offender for sex tape leak.
After that, we enter into The Refuse to Call for Adventure; i.e, the hero (Wille) realizes he must face the challenge. We also step into the Meeting the Mentor, which is Boris, who helps Wille learn how to stand up and ultimately fight for himself (and Simon). While I see others thinking that W might push everyone away, including skipping his appts with Boris, I do not think thatâs the case. Boris was set up to be the Mentor that W needs to realize the challenge heâs been facing and we may continue seeing him open up to Boris.
This will then allow W to âCross the Thresholdâ and reinforce the central theme and conflict of the story - if W continues to stay with the monarchy and his obligations as Crown Prince, he cannot choose Simon. Love or Duty? Which will prevail?
S3 crosses that threshold and produces tests and obstacles that would make the fight for his relationship w S so much more complicated (basically everything we saw in the trailer). This stage in the Heroâs Journey is meant for the audience to doubt the Hero - Wille. Itâs already a testament as we are debating if W is going to denounce his title or not just from the 2 mins of what we saw from the trailer. Itâs intentional. We need to doubt in order for the central theme to drive home and also portrays the monarchy to be the overarching enemy of this story, without Lisa forfeiting her own political statement.
We enter the next stage of the Journey - which is the Cave - meaning the Hero and protagonists need to regroup and prepare for a counter attack (generally speaking) because the tension is continuing to rise and there are outside forces that wish to disturb the Journey (in this case, public opinion? paparazzi? Hillerska shutting down?).
Next, we enter the Ordeal - which makes the Hero break down bc he enters a mental barrier and is pushed to a corner. However, the Hero, typically comes out stronger after this stage in storytelling.
Ultimately, we reach the end: The Reward. The Hero makes the âattackâ or choice and defeats the enemy/antagonist.
Imo, with how everything is set up, I do think itâs set up for W and S to be together in the end at least the end of the show (everything else after is obviously left for the audience member to interpret).
I have no doubt that W & S are going to come up on top and still be together in the end bc like some people mentioned - what would be the point? It was never a question whether they would end up together. The question is if Wille, our Hero in this story, would make the final choice and choose between love or duty. I think Wille would choose love. What better way of making history, especially with everything thatâs been happening in real events, then choosing love? That would make for a strong ending.

some thoughts on netflix's adaptation of atla:
kiawentiio was done dirty cause she has so much of katara's bite and sass in her interviews
u can really tell the writing is the series' weakest point because the actors have what it takes to bring those characters to life but they'll only be able to do so much with the script and direction they're given
the wigs are SO ugly. yue had it the worst imo. she deserved better
suki was perfect
LET SOKKA WEAR DRAG U COWARDS
why the fuck are ppl just bending without bending forms and stances. why is aang able to fly without needing to lose his earthly tethers
why are they randomly cutting and pasting scenes in weird places
why is the swamp scene combined with the spirit world????? that was important in setting up toph's introduction????
the fact that the writers knew it made no sense for katara and sokka to end up in the spirit world with aang so even the characters said it and they just handwaved it bc plot lol
so much exposition. clearly the mark of a good story is when the character have to TELL u everything that's happening đ«
the writers are such big kyoshi stans
like why is she taking other characters' roles
why is gran gran doing katara's intro
iroh and zuko are cute
zuko's choreo is so good
zhao is still a dumbass
his death is unsatisfying. what happened to getting fucked by the spirit world if u fuck with it. where's the ocean spirit dragging his ass to its demise. why is iroh providing his sentence
mai and ty lee are doing nothing but have terrible wigs and give exposition on ozai's motives that they somehow knoe about
aang: *gets told there's no easy way out in being the avatar*
also aang: *gets told everything he needs to know*
badgermoles are empaths now????
bumi they nerfed u
aang they nerfed u
gyatso u deserved a cooler fight to the death they really nerfed u
it's so fucking stupid that aang has to be in shrines to talk to his past lives
kinda cool they go into more detail of the past avatars' lives ig. even if only slightly
katara vs pakku was so lackluster
these bending fights are so lackluster unless ur zuko ig
no srsly how are some ppl just bending without forms. like sozin in episode 1 roasting that dude by just holding him
jun exists only to flirt w the dragon of the west and good on her, me too girl
what's the point of sokka getting suki's fan if he's not even gonna use it...
there's no stronger relationship than sokka x momo
oma and shu are gay i think. love that for them
why tf did aang spend this entire story not even trying to pick up another element. katara literally offers to learn with him a few times and he just didn't feel like it lol
OG azula was impressive and scary. netflix azula feels more like the eldest asian daughter trying rly hard to get her parents' approval. idk she's just alright
so much expositions
ok sure let's have time sensitive plot A not conclude in one episode, have it stretch to the next episode, and still only rush in concluding it at the very end in the backburner of plot B. let's just handwave the fact that those people definitely should've died in like the three days it takes them to resolve plot B
the cabbage merchant is cabbage merchanting
effects are good

The Umbrella Academy Season 4 Final Thoughts
I have opinions I need to share. Obviously spoilers ahead so⊠enter at your own risk?
Firstly, the positives
To give it some credit, this was a beautiful ending. It was technically the only way they could end it bc it was clear no matter what they did, the apocalypse would follow
I loved the reference to them saving the Eiffel Tower in an alternate timeline, like they did in the comics
âŠyeh, thatâs it
Oh wait, I loved Klausâ relationship with Claire. I love Klaus. I love everything about him. Thank you. End quote
Now for the negatives - this will be in no coherent order so bare with me
Itâs embarrassingly clear that this needed its usual 10 episodes. I think I read somewhere that the director felt that 6 episodes were the perfect amount so maybe Netflix didnât cut it, or perhaps he was trying to make the best of a shitty situation. But every scene felt like it was missing something.
Where was the family dance sesh???
Five and Lila. No. Just. No. Theyâre begrudging step-sibling and that is it. And even if they did want to go down this direction, even if I wasnât so opposed to the ship, I just didnât care. You canât just time skip 7 years in 1 episode and simultaneously get me to feel invested in their relationship. They needed 2 episodes at least to make me feel the impact of those 7 years. I know for 5 thatâs probably nothing compared to his time in the apocalypse, but to Lila, that wouldâve driven her insane, and in her breaking point, thatâs when she goes to 5, bit like how they did this. Not to mention, they come back looking the exact same. 5 is supposed to be, what, 27 at this point? I sure as hell donât see it. I wouldâve much preferred a scene where, once Lila releases theyâre going back home, frantically tries to clean up and cut her hair to look exactly how she did before so that her family still recognise her. Ugh that entire point was just so shit
The baby shark gag was not funny
Why did Diego and Lila have to have twins as well. I get it, theyâre tired parents who miss their glory days. But if you want us to feel really sorry for them, and later mourn them when Lila has to say goodbye, maybe let us see the family interact as⊠as well as family. I was so excited to see Diego in his real daddy era just for him to talk to his oldest daughter maybe once? ALSO why does Lila get that whole emotional goodbye to her children and Diego just, nothing? âGet the family out of hereâ umm hello, even if you didnât like the in-laws, those are 3 of your fucking children that youâre saying goodbye to forever. I think Iâm just upset that they reduced Lila to being a tired mother (to me anyway) and forget Diego was the father. I wouldâve so rather seen him being the dad that he never had in his life.
Like putting the family on the Subway to nowhere. Literally. Itâs not like she knew how the Subway worked so she was just sticking her family on the train and hoping for the best. They made it seem as though they had never found a world safe enough. Like truly the best place for them to stay was the fucking Greenhouse world, so how did she expect the family to survive, and with no powers mind you. And also didnât thy know at that point that all ultimate timelines would be destroyed, except for the main timeline. Was she hoping theyâd magicallly be taken to the main timeline orrr? Iâm just so fucking confused man
The Subway. What a fucking missed opportunity oh my fucking god. Its only true function was to have all the Fiveâs meet up to tell Prime Five the super duper important convenient information that would bring upon The Finale. It was such a cool concept and we saw⊠none of it. Firstly, they made it wayyy to easy that Five just happened to find a journal his future self made that worked out the tunnel system. Youâre telling me that in 7 years he never worked any of it out. Uhhh I just wanted to see how the Subway worked and we couldnât even get that. AND they only showed us 1 world!!!! I think alternate timelines are such a. Fun concept because you can explore multiple worlds that are like your own but a little more freaky with little to no consequences in your own world. I LOVED seeing the Phoenix Academy so much but⊠that was it. Imagine a montage of Five and Lila visiting a ton of worlds like our own with messed up Academy. Can you imagine if we saw a comic accurate Umbrella Academy??? Omfg the ultimate homage. Iâm tearing up just thinking about what we couldâve had.
Gene and Jean were rly fun but again, what waisted potential. I loved my quirky not-so-instance parents sm
Uncle Five? Uncle Luther? Gone. Maybe Iâm misremembering but they always seemed so excited to meet Claire. Ik theyâre pissed at Alison or whatever (but theyâre literally not though) but youâre telling me we never see them interact, despite them being some of the only sibling to care about Claire??? Oh okay, okayyy
The powers. Does nobody care that some have multiple powers now orrr? So Lila had laser eyes but could still mimic everyone else. Also the running gag of not being able to control her eyes couldâve gone on for so much longer. And Alison. Was she just so powerful she could rumour ppl without saying anything now? And when her eyes went yellow, that was a completely new power, right? And did Viktorâs powers seem different to you guys or is it bc he absorbed Harlanâs powers last season. Me personally, I think theyâre shouldâve gone down the Tinkerbell: The Pirate Fairy route and swapped the sibling powers with each other or completely different ones
It wouldâve been such a good plot twist if after learning that the Cleanse restored them to the one true timeline, they all think itâs their original lives as a misdirect and they the horror sets in as you realise that theyâre actually part of an ultimate timeline. They just couldâve done so much more than that. I know with limited episodes they had to wrap things up quickly so after they learned they had to be erased they just kinda had to accept it but I wouldâve loved an entire episode of them grappling with the fact and saying goodbye and reminiscing about their past and maybe even being in denial and self sabotaging or whatever (kind of in the style of that ep in s2 when they have an hour to meet up
Why was Jennifer in a squid??? Why? did she get all the durango? Why werenât there 42 other kids who got ur? That couldâve been such a cool parallel like cmonnn
I always suspected Benâs death to be connected to Reg in some way so I loved the reveal⊠but I hated Jenniferâs involvement. Like it just felt tooo convenient. And I understand why they did it from a writers/ directors perspective that they wanted to wrap everything up but I just felt it couldâve been done much smarter. ALSO I just realised that Klaus doesnât know how Ben died. Diabolical. I will not stand for it
Reginald didnât recognise his own wife??? Like when Fake Gene called him âloveâ and Reggie didnât clock it???
Speaking of Reggie ARE WE EVER GOING TO DISCUSS THAT HEâS AN ALIEN ROBOT BITCH???
Soooo Luther never once asked Reggie about Sloane???
Ray. Whereâs Ray? Maybe the actor was working on something else and they had to get rid of his character
WE NEVER EVEN HEAD ALISON SAY âI HEARD A RUMOURâ NOT EVEN ONCE like I get sheâs powerful enough to the point she doesnât have to say it anymore but that line eats down every. Single. TIME!
Lastly and most importantly⊠the soundtrack. The songs didnât slap. Simple as.
Final Statement
I think I covered all my points. I doubt Iâll make a part 2 bc honestly, the show isnât worth my time and energy anymore. I just needed to rant bc I donât know any ppl who watch this who have any lick of media literacy.
The finale was painfully underwhelming. It didnât feel like the same TUA Iâve grown to love over the past few years. I can accept the ending but the journey to how we got there was one massive slap in the face. Iâm going to ignore this ending ever happened thank you <3

tag from @babyrdie and @greekmythologylover234 .
been a lot of tag games recently huh! thanks for remembering me đ€Ł
9 people you want to know better
i don't know enough people on here, but i'll be tagging @amnesiaa-on-ice @akhillaous @whorewhouse @naurumii @elnbnt @peggy-sue-reads-a-book
here are the questions to copy-paste:
three ships
first ship
last song
last tv show
currently reading
currently watching
currently eating
currently craving
my answers to them are under the cut so only those who are interested will be reading it (because i'll be yapping) lol
three ships
- patrochilles (duh; probably going to be my favorite, if i'm honest)
- kavetham (admits this semi-shamefully because the rest of the fandom is ass-- but i've left it. glad i did because the recent toxic community will never do me any good. i stressed, i die. simple. was a huge hyperfixation for a year or so though.)
- vashwood (it's been a while, but i really got obsessed with them and the show. watched 1997 once, stampede 3 times, not inclusive of the scattered episodes)
first ship
tbh no idea. it may or may not be solomon and saya from blood+ (great show great show) but i was around 7 when this happened and was just tagging along with whatever my sister had to say about things like these? i'm not a super shippy person either-- i'm not big on these things and certainly a lot less when i was younger. didn't have a lot of interest in couples prolly bc i had no idea what difference it had with friendship. just that you kiss and fuck or something. and i thought that was weird, or well, nothing much to it.
i guess you could say that the first pairing i've ever wanted to defend was zuko and katara from ATLA đ€Ł nowadays i understand mai and zuko's relationship and i think it's pretty sweet, but back then i was fixated on zutara chemistry so wheeđș
last song
i haven't been playing music recently since i've been over at my partner's, but "done for" from epic the musical has been playing in my head since i woke up so there's that lol
last tv show
we were looking through netflix for an "easy" show to watch for dinner and got through 2 episodes of the exploding kittens show đ€Ł played the game a lot when we got it, plus fond memories of things that happened whilst prompted us to check it out. it's an american tv show i guess, and i've never really vibed with those so it was alright, i guess. the kitties were cute.
currently reading
nothing. finished madeline miller's circe 3 days ago or so, though. my odyssey reading has been suspended for 2 weeks now but i guess it's because i'm pretty much kept up on the plot from randomly reading shit about it on the internet? i'm generally more of a "how did the story go?" person when i get into a book unless i become super obsessed with it. then, i'll dive into the nuances of text and its analysis. which hasn't been happening recently. i'll probably be balls-deep in academic text soon considering i haven't been a good student (our research adviser told us to start doing our thesis papers over the summer holiday so the process will be smoother... guess i'll be disappointing the prof who actually likes me â)
currently watching
nothing. finished castlevania (as well as the released season of nocturne) last month and i think that's my quota for shows for a while lol.
currently eating
fast food because the rain started pouring so hard. in time for lunch or so. it was a sign from the lord to spend and have a good time because the world might end tomorrow or something.
currently craving
the other items on the menu i didn't order- kidding lmao. a calzone for some reason, as well as a fizzy drink i usually get from a local cafe run by a nice old lady and youth on the drinks. ok, now i want her pesto sandwich.
ight i'll just eat now brb

Ok idk if anyone said this re: Greta gerwigâs narnia on here already I only pop in from time to timeâŠ
But it seems like Liam Neeson will return to voice Aslan and Tilda Swinton is set to return as the White Witch?
There was also a comment in an interview saying it wonât change peopleâs conception of narnia, but just make it bigger (I think that was the phrasing, or close to it).
So Iâm cautiously optimistic. That makes it sound like they want to get the audience on familiar territory â hopefully it lands! To use the same actors and then depart to dramatically from the 2005 version would be pretty jarring, so maybe they want to recreate that movie relatively closely as a launchpad for the rest of the series? But they still gotta make it their own which makes me nervous lol
Netflix handled the Shadow and Bone adaptation pretty well so maybe Iâll be pleasantly surprised đŹ
The only thing is that Greta Gerwig seems emphasize messaging and themes in equal measure as plot. Little Women deals prominently with marriage, expectations of womanhood, wealth/class, etc. Barbie is theme over plot, Iâd almost say, given the virality of America Ferreraâs speech, Iâm Kenough, and the overall impression of Barbie having an awakening to being a human woman or whatever. I havenât seen it so maybe thereâs plot Iâm missing but that seems to be the idea.
This kinda thing doesnât work for narnia, imo. I donât want to hear Susan give a speech about womanhood in the war era, or some remark on femininity, firstly because itâs so overdone in movies these days but also bc if youâre going to put any theme/motif/messaging on equal footing to Narniaâs plot it should be faith.
Iâm not saying Christianity has to slap you in the face. The Disney adaptations handled it well I think. It was there without the movie overdoing it, and there wasnât any sort of moral or speech or sound bite to sell to the audience otherwise. It was a fantasy movie.
Susan would make an easy target, and I really hope Gerwig doesnât fall into the âlipstick and nylonsâ trap everyone argues about. First of all it should hardly be foregrounded bc it doesnât really become an issue until after sheâs left narnia in which case sheâs offscreen. The Last Battle maybe, but again itâs brief. My two cents on it though are that I always took it to be her grief for not being able to return to narnia forced her to try to move on, and maybe the resentment over her loss broke her faith. Sheâs still a character to sympathize with. People say Lewis couldnât get past her being female and hence the lipstick and nylons but I think thatâs a bad read. She was a queen, an adult woman, and cerebrally mature only to return a boarding school student. Of course she didnât return to her dolls. I also think that it happened because sheâs so logical and calculated and careful (neither good nor bad as a trait on its own) that loosing something she loved only augmented her original doubts and made her stubborn. So again itâs not about womanhood nylons and lipstick, itâs grief and sort of an internal self-defence kinda thing. If Gerwig were to explore anything with Susan as sheâs older I would say doubt and logic versus faith and responsibility would both be true to the character and far more original/interesting for audiences.
I would love to see how they handle The Horse and his Boy, the Golden Age and how the kings and queens earn their titles (just, gentle, valiant, magnificent). I would love to see a Jill Pole who is allowed to cry, to be a scared school child, and also brave and stoic and thrust into an underground world on a rescue mission. I will be fascinated to see their concept for The Last Battle, because again itâs very much so a Christian story.
So I really do hope Netflix allows the series to live past the first 3, so we get new material. Caspian and Dawn Treader are gonna be a test for Gerwigâs strengths before sheâs allowed into fresh territory with the other books.
I just think that if youâre intending to strip it of the intention behind the story â lost faith, found faith, tested faith, resilience, trust, redemption, all through a Christian lens, then maybe donât adapt it at all. Iâm not saying you have to make Christianity so foregrounded it feels like a sermon, but you cannot have narnia without that being the lens through which the world is understood. They arenât separable things.
AND going back to the casting hopefully itâs not Timothy chalamet / Saoirse Ronan / Florence Pugh. As much as theyâre great actors, I think for narnia as a reboot to land, they need a bunch of unknown, fresh faces and actual kids not people in their twenties/thirties. Even as a background narnia cameo it would honestly be distracting.

Holy cow, the mainstream Mormon church is just as wild as the polygamist sects when you dive deep enough. NewNameNoah on YouTube has hidden camera videos of EVERY ritual (thereâs also a transcription floating around somewhere to help you understand when it gets fuzzy). Jordan and McKay (ex-Mormon couple) have reaction videos where they watch the temple videos and provide additional commentary.
There are very active debates about where the events of the BoM took place, because supposedly ancient Israelites sailed to America and became the Native Americans after many generations. Some âscholarsâ believe the Mayan pyramids are proof the BoM is true because theyâre âclearlyâ Nephite temples. The three pyramids is Teotihuacan supposedly represent the three kingdoms of heaven. There are a disturbing number of tour companies in Mexico that cater to Mormons, providing guided tours of âThe Holy Landsâ (Chichen Itza and Tulum in Mexico, Lake Atitlan in Guatemala).
Yesterday I was listening to some historianâs presentation on YouTube. He claims the BoM was set in the Midwest, and some of his âproofâ (because clearly genetics and the archaeological record ainât backing him up) is that the names in the BoM end in â-ahâ like a lot of Native American words. One of those words he cited? Scotia. LikeâŠmy dude. Do you really think Nova Scotia is what the Miâkmaq called their land? And not Latin for âNew Scotlandâ? Because a cursory google search will corroborateâŠitâs the latter.
Also, check out Murder Among the Mormons on Netflix if you havenât already. Itâs a wild rideâenjoy!
Murder Among the Mormons is a wild ride lol highly recommend four anyone that likes religious true crime docs.
It is so fascinating to me how mormonism has created such a solid foundation of belief in its relatively short lifetime. it's not the only religion that makes wild claims about its history obviously but I always felt like the major world religions got a lot of their legitimacy just from being so old ya know...... hearing a story from 5k years ago about Jesus doing something magical is like, sounds fake but who knows what was going on back then, the continents were closer the oceans were colder, maybe magic was a thing. But all of Mormonism lore is less than 200 yrs old, maybe 7 or 8 generations ago....... it's like why did God wait so long to reveal all this information lol and why do basically everyone else's stories not line up with yours at all??
But like you mentioned, it's got its claws so deep in the believers they have deep theological discussions about where biblical things happened in North America, something that seems so ridiculously easy to disprove bc we have soooooo much evidence to the contrary (including the actual Christian Bible). It feels like the early isolation of mormons in Utah just really sped up a lot of things that took other religions hundreds of years to achieve, idk it's so interesting.

hiii! i hope ur doing okay <3
i was wondering what writers you would recommend that have a similar style (romance and comedy) to you since i'm new on tumblr :'P
omg wait this is sort of sweet đ i dont really know what my 'style' exactly is, BUT i have been waiting for this exact moment!!!! (ranting about my favorite writers my favorite beings in the world and fangirling bcs that is clearly in my nature)
OKAY OKAY LETS DO THIS!!!
i recommend
-> @jjunis
first writer i got into when stumbling upon moablr!! LITERALLY THE CUTEST SMAUs (i know i dont really make those but i swearrrrr give her soobin one a shot its so ROMCOM-ESQUE) AND all her oneshots are fluffy and cute and and
my favorite piece from them is their beomgyu smau (bcs im a struggling bamtori that eats up anything beomgyu) my beloved GHOSTING. its on hold but its soooooo fucking good, like slow burn at its core and i LOVE it. its not romantic yet but i swear its sooo worth it, the topics it tackles and the character development and the effectiveness of the flashbacks and how real each character feels ...this is the IT smau!!!!
-> @tqmies
i held off on reading for soooo long even when i found each and every summary of her fics sooooooo interesting but then one day i had free time and decided i should finally tackle my reading list and !!!!
i soooo recommend each and every fic, like its all SO good??? FOR WHAT??? so easy to read but her vocab isn't limited, and i just love that balance so much. everything is good. i recommend EVERYTHING.
but if i had to choose ONE, just ONE thing to recommend, it would be love again because i am a whore for best friends to lovers and this was the most perfect beomgyu b2l ever.
-> @minastras
um if mina isn't one of the best writers on moablr then who is????? i'd recommend for starters her yeonjun fic mr. vice president literally captured the essence of academic rivals to lovers arc so well (ill fangirl over this more on my official rec list bcs i have a lot to say but trust!!! minas the writer you're looking for)
also has a cute ongoing taehyun smau, read that too!!!
-> @tyunlatte
the most adorablest, cutest, tooth rotting fluff i squeal over their fics. im still going through their masterlist but FUCKKKKKKK everything ive read so far is SOOOOO good. also totally someone worth following, my dash is blessed every day they're the cutest!!
i'd personally recommend her entire drabble event, but my favorite has to be stay stay stay because im a pureblood swiftie and i love soobin my heart hurts
also ALSO recommend cool hot sweet love. i'm the biggest sucker for love triangles (i mean hello, two cute boys fawning over you??? sign me up ????) and the fact that we get both endings????? hail the great alex!!!
-> @hueningshaped
i can't even pinpoint one fic i'd recommend, literally just go through their entire masterlist it's all so fucking well written (hello if u see this i literally freaked out when you followed me back ur literally my idol, i am your #1 fan rereading everything youve written forever)
-> @ijhyo
absolutely insane writer, blessed this site!!!! i'd recommend their slasher series (can't find the link but im sure youll find it). i know that isnt necessarily romcomy but it was so good (i guessed the insane bitch correctly and therefore i will forever love the series for making me feel smart!!!!!)
OMG ALSO THEIR BEOMGYU FIC!! how to get the girl! once again, i am a whore for b2l.
-> @beomgyuslilracha
i havent read an entire series yet but from what ive read so far..ugh pls beg them to be a scriptwriter i need her fics on my screen, on NETFLIX, ON HULU, DISNEY+ whatever!!! plz pull a 50 shades of grey
-> @gyu-xiao
they only have three things for txt but each one of them is so good, i squealed over each fic. my favorite hyuka fic comes from them!! had me biting my knuckles trying not to scream like damn đ
okay these are the writers i could first think of đ i swear i feel like i forgot three or four but oh well, enjoy your tumblr cruise đ

For pillow fort friday<3
If I had to make you a drink I would do a simple whisky cocktail ! (I hope you like whiskey as much as Saya doesâbc I know I do!)
-Whiskey on the rocks with a homemade spiced* honey syrup *(cinnamon, ginger, orange, honey+ water/sugar) -A dash of Orange bitters and a weee bit of fresh lemon juiceâgarnished with an orange wheel
You pick a movie/tv show/anime! (Or 5?) I could use a good rec! :)
good morning, kaz! i'm so sorry i missed this last night, i was busy singing my lungs out very poorly at karaoke, ahaha.
that cocktail sounds fantastic, i will take two, pls & thank you. whiskey (and scotch whisky particularly) is my preferred liquor most of the time, though gin does edge ahead a little bit in the summer when i enjoy a nice fizz with fresh fruit. that cocktail sounds perfectly up my alley! <3
let's see what i can do about recommendations below the cut because they got looonnnnggg (sorry)...
tv shows:
ted lasso. i was very late to this one, but just binged all three seasons and really enjoyed it. on apple.
BEEF. it's sooooooo goood and bizarre and wonderful in the worst (best) ways. on netflix.
trial & error. was an nbc comedy over too soon. on peacock, i think.
the river. likewise cancelled early, but it's horror on the amazon and i loved it a lot. idk where to find this one, but i'm sure it's streaming someplace as all things are these days.
not dead yet. which finished its first season recently is an easy watch & pretty funny. the MC is very relatable in an, "i am a mess" sort of way alsjdf;adfs. i think this is nbc, but i watched it on hulu.
movies:
everything everywhere all at once. i can't wait to watch this again. it was my first time in a non-socially distanced movie theatre post-quarantine and it was such a joy to hold my spouse's hand while i laughed my ass off and cried and yelled. love this fucking thing (as does everyone else, as they should).
you won't be alone. this is horror. body horror. it's pretty messy in parts but so so sooooooo soooooooooooooo good. it's also primarily in macedonian with subtitles and i'm not sure how hard it would be to track down.
the impostors. with stanley tucci and oliver platt is a comedy from my youth that i still think is one of the best of all time.
a goofy movie. idk, y'all, i just showed this to my spouse because it was referenced in an episode of atlanta (another great fucking tv show) and it's still just so funny and heartwarming and the music they made for powerline is so good.
spiderman: across the spider-verse. haven't even seen this yet but my god i want to so badly and i just know it's gonna be killer because the first one blew my mind.
anime (i'm probably not gonna come up with much here you haven't already seen or know about tbh but let's see):
blue period. especially as an artist, i think you might enjoy this one. i binged it in like a day and a half and thoroughly enjoyed it all very much. on netflix.
maid-sama! i actually enjoyed watching this anime so much that i then went back and read the whole manga because i needed to know how it ended. it was cute and expected and exactly the sort of low-stakes shojo i needed at the time.
ghost hunt!.i fucking love this little horror anime and am so disappointed it didn't get to go longer. there is a manga and also a light novel that are very worthwhile if you ever have the time.
i think three is all you're gonna get outta me for this category, but i hope something there sparks your fancy! thanks so much! <3
