Absolutley no hate, i just wondering why you dont like Colonel Potter?

I was going to hold off on answering this until I had time to write something properly, but a) the chances of me feeling like I ever have that time are slim and b) I realised if I really Got Into It the answer would be long and winding and UTTERLY boring. So I tried to wrap it up lmao.

Just to be clear, for me there are two main ways to 'like' a character? There is liking them as if they were a real person - reckon you'd get on with them in real life maybe - and then there is liking them as a character, finding them entertaining or useful within the narrative.

I don't like Potter as a person. And on some level, I do like Potter in the latter way... Harry Morgan is excellent and regularly makes me properly laugh, which is what you want from a sitcom character, and I think he achieves what he is meant to achieve in the story, he fulfills his role. I just don't like his role.

For me, Potter represents a lot of what I don't like about the messaging of the post s3 show in regards to the military - namely the sort of milquetoast "some good army" idea, the way it is painted as being full of 'good eggs' without enough disection of what that means. He is also used as a character that upholds a lot of the less progressive ideas in the show, without much challenge, and while it's useful to push the sitcom plots along... well. It doesn't half piss me off.

Ultimately though this sort of thing is often putting a reason to a feeling rather than the other way round, and there are other characters that I have similar issues with that I like a lot more so I cannot discount just personal preference I guess!

was rewatching fabian’s baron moment on account of it being the most delicious piece of pvp in my recent memory and ally beardsley’s growth as a player just shone through so brightly and with such clarity. after dusting off their shock they immediately asked about the nemesis ward, had enough knowledge about fellow pcs stocked to remember adaine’s ac with such like frustrated confidence and certainty, suggested to siobhan to dimension door out of adaine’s room, like. they came into this making a character with 4 dex. and now the dice deity offered to roll a check to sense if adaine was in danger. making decisions, asking questions, getting invested in the story, trying so hard with the tools they have to save characters from danger; ally beardsley is an incredible d&d player.

Not the first, not the last, but certainly the most prominent indication that I’m crap at skin tones.

Anyway I love her.

I genuinely cannot listen to some ppl criticize the substance because they have no media literacy and think they’re intelligent when they have no brain capacity like wdym it should’ve had a happy ending or Harvey should’ve got his karma? Is that all u got from the movie?

and don’t get me started on the ppl calling it anti feminist or still male gazey because the point flew over their heads
