anyone who says tdp "ruined rayllum" can meet me in the denny's parking lot. i will truly never believe that the writers broke up rayllum (physically i mean) just as a plot contrivance. this is not me defending my favorite show and my favorite ship; i genuinely believe this was the right move. even when i was young and dumb and first heard about an arc 2 i was like "pff rayllum isn't gonna break up," and yet in the back of my mind i was just wondering how are they gonna pull this off? like i loved them and i know they loved each other and they were sweet little babies blah blah blah but you cannot sit here and tell me that the two 15 year olds who went through a whole shitload of trauma and grief together and who were already killing themselves for each other out of hopeless devotion within 2 weeks weren't bound to crash and burn. people seem to forget that rayla didn't simply decide to leave just because; she was being tormented by her unresolved issues and could not stand to be in that place anymore, no matter how much she loved callum. of course she left because a) that's all she's ever known and b) because they couldn't last (how they were, anyway). rayla and callum had grown to rely on one another so much that they needed time to grow up on their own, and now, well...

there is no better way to test love than to put it through the ringer and see if it survives, and rayllum not only love each other just as much if not more, truly understand each other on a whole new level despite having been apart for so long, and now are back together and stronger than they've ever been. it was entirely logical and frankly inevitable for this to happen, it was a natural progression for the story, and it has made them better.

BOOOO

I'm not surprised tbh, because like I've mentioned before: COD is a US funded military propaganda game

I'm still posting COD stuff but geez 😒 What a friendly(sarcasm) reminder to not trust anybody I guess

[mollysails]

no because even though I don’t really believe in the coffee theory (like I guess it kinda makes sense but there’s something about it that makes me feel like we’re missing something) *SOMETHING* definitely happened during aziraphale’s conversation with the metatron

like why didn’t they just straight up show us the whole thing instead of aziraphale just telling us the most important bits huh? 🤨⁉️ there’s something fishy there

i feel like they’re trying to hide something from us

but also!

i personally feel like aziraphale has been acting way “bolder” I guess you could say, when it comes to his relationship with crowley

like it really seemed like he was finally ready to “go a bit faster” if you know what I mean

i mean he had literal heart eyes for the entire season, and not only that but like his reaction to when jim said the whole thing about “everything being right when you’re near one particular person”, the banter all throughout the season (HIM ASKING FOR THE APOLOGY DANCE), the magic act scene — honestly this season every single flashback seemed like proof that aziraphale has truly loved crowley for as long as him; on that note, THE ‘BEFORE THE BEGGINING’ SCENE (“look at you you’re gorgeous!” “:D … oh :/” COME ON); HIS REACTION TO GABRIEL AND BEELZEBUB GOING TO ALPHA CENTAURI TOGETHER (which happy for them btw we love to see it)

AND LITERALLY SO MANY MORE

he genuinely seemed ready to finally take the next step with crowley so for him to suddenly say all of that doesn’t feel right

something happened I know it

the way i've been wanting to write an epic albus dumbledore fanfic spanning multiple acts of his life (childhood, summer 1899, post-1899, the war, rest of his life, afterlife) for YEARS but have always given up half-in is so sad.

like the last LONG grindeldore fic I finished was in 2020 with 45k words. since then, I've only written short stories, one shots and unfinished fanfictions.

i've written so many other stories since then, but I think I fear to not do grindeldore justice, so I always get terrified at the thought of finishing a fanfiction about them.

anyways, i shall be brave someday

I don't know if this context will ever make sense to anyone but me, but currently working on chapter 25 of Papa Mia! listening to Epic: Wisdom Saga on repeat. So that that as you please.

Watching a few people give stupid criticism over Gen Loss that makes 0 sense, from being annoyed that not everyone’s a perfect actor to being annoyed that it isn’t Hollywood level stuff.

I also saw someone say “ I can’t suspend my belief because that’s not how online media works” no my dude that’s how fictional media works

when you watch a movie or show you suspend your belief for the sake of enjoying it

It’s the same for watching online horror content, like locks 58 or Walten Files or Mandela Catalogue. A lot of those have elements that wouldn’t make sense in the real world but it’s not the real world, it a fictional one with horror and paranormal elements, you have to suspend your belief to enjoy it

If you wanted high budget stuff, then don’t want indie content online, and certainly do not complain about it that’s so stupid

I’m not saying it’s perfect but like if your complaint that Ranboo ( who funded his passion project on it own like any other artist typically does) doesn’t have the large budget to create something you’d find in the movies, I have to wonder if you respect indie creators at all

I also wonder if we watched the same thing and I midly get concerned with the way we consume media online a little

Why is bitch acting like I’M the problem?🤨

I miss writing fics 😭😭

Someone throw a shoe at me for taking up another job. 😭

man i hate it here :(( my tweet got insta-napped

[m4rs-ex3]

"cause i know you, rayla" i am short-circuiting. yk i assumed if he ever brought the whole issue up, it would be because he was brought to his limit watching her hurt herself, that he would be filled with anguish. and yet here we are: it's just something that he knows, and he's always known it, and KNOWS. HER GODDAMMIT. he knows that this is just how she is, and that it's a part of her, and he loves every part of her, so he's content to simply give her everything she won't give herself, whenever possible. he doesn't bother with telling her to "just do better" when he could just show her what that looks like, and let her be better for herself, and make sure she knows that he will always be there to take her by the hand--literally (placing her hand on the corona, and all). the development from arc 1 is insane--"then you don't know me at all" -> now this--and it makes me so happy to see that he's not just "forgiving" rayla for "what she's done," but actively correcting the mistakes that he made back then, too. all the while encouraging her to do the same with nothing but love and consideration. i'm ok i swear

I could go on for days

[mollysails]

i saw the first top gun film the other day and I must say, in my humble opinion, the most unrealistic part about that film is the fact that they’re constantly trying to sell you that maverick pulls more bitches than goose

[nightshift-clocking-in]

“ I don’t like this art work becuase it made me feel uncomfortable.”

Did you ever think it was supposed to? That make it was to force you to face your bias and view the world through a different lenses? Maybe just maybe being uncomfortable is not a bad thing if you learn from it?

Incoming rant…

I think a lot of people get confused with Mars and Venus. People say that men are from Mars and women are from Venus, but I would say that men are Sun and women are Moon. Men lead with ego represented by the sun. They pride themselves with being King. Moon represents nurture and intuition. That is why women are known throughout many cultures to be a gateway to the spiritual. Why we call it a “women’s intuition” Women tend to be more into astrology. Mars and Venus, however, aren’t completely specific to any gender because both genders have Martian and Venusian energies in them. All creatures can express Mars & Venus. Both positively & negatively.

Mars represents anger, aggression, passion & sexuality. The only reason it was associated with men was because of what patriarchy taught us. Men were the only ones allowed to be sexual, passionate, aggressive, and angry. Even though women feel these same emotions as well. Venus represents love, sensuality, marriage, beauty & harmony. Women are supposed to be beautiful, sensual & non confrontational. Women are told they have to marry & have kids or they’ll “die alone & miserable.” Any men with these characteristics are seen as less masculine. In actuality, women can be sexual, dominant & express anger. Men can be sensual, nurturing, and appreciate love & beauty. Both genders have masculine and feminine energies. And it’s important to keep them balanced.

Venus is also not as soft & gentle as people think, especially like what is taught in western astrology. No hate, they have the wrong perception of Venus. Venus is far more cruel than it lets on. Venus is actually much like Mars as they were once lovers. Thought to be polar opposites but have more in common. Mars is outwardly aggressive, but internally soft. Whereas, Venus is outwardly soft but internally aggressive & cruel. Venus is the hottest planet, scorching & inhabitable. That is why all Venus Nakshatras sit in fire rashis- Sagittarius, Leo and Aries. Also, all of the Venus nakshatras, Bharani, Purva Phalguni, Purvashadha, are ugra or fierce. Representing aggression, assertiveness, cruelty. Which can be ruthless, hurting others in the process. Venus is hedonism especially in Purva Ashadha. Venus will do anything in the pursuit of pleasure and passion, even if destructive, morally corrupt & wrong. Hitler, for example, had a Bharani Venus AK. You’re Atmakraka is your soul’s desire. His soul desire was beauty and pleasure and he did anything even hurting and killing millions of people just to achieve it. Venus/Shukra in Vedic is also the teacher of Demons, but people think Venus is an innocent and submissive planet, really it can function as a malefic. If most women were Venus, the world wouldn’t be how it is now. Us women wouldn’t be in the predicament that we are in.

Men are taught that they are superior like the sun, blinding others with its light. Society teaches men that the ultimate move is to be like the Sun. That’s why men & patriarchy are so drawn to solar men. Women are taught to be like the moon hidden, nurturing, seen but not heard, accusing us of being overly emotional. That we aren’t logical. That were not fit to lead only the sun(men) should. Not to say the moon is weak It’s just calculative & secretive. Naturally, Men= Mars, Women=Venus, but society & patriarchy trains us to be Men= Sun, Women=moon. What Claire Nakti called the “ideal women” nakshatra or favorite wife of Chandra is Rohini, ruled by the moon, but sitting in a rashi ruled by Venus. But, like I said, Venus is far more cruel and ambitious for it’s goal. That is why most women killers are usually not caught. In reality. Women need to start being more like Venus.

Thanks for listening to my TedTalk

So I’m stuck. There’s this really cute guy in my math class who’s like a real life Weasley twin, and I really like him, but I think he has a girlfriend.

Well now I’ve noticed this cute guy who’s in my lunch period, and I’m stuck between the two. I haven’t talked to the guy in my lunch, we’ve just made eye contact a couple times. I really like him because he looks very similar to the s/o I tried manifesting.

Idk what to do y’all. I just want a boyfriend but no boys want me🧍‍♂️

See the horror with something like this (inhales deeply in hyperinterest) is that you're thinking it's about a manga entry but it's not.

It's about how literally anything that isn't in your native language is a translation with an interpretation biased by the translator.

Any movie/book/anime/conversation/media/content is biasied if translated. The Bible and My Hero Academia both suffer from the exact same problem, at the root of it. That people cannot extirpate themselves from things. My personal opinion is that if you don't completely pull out, then you can influence someone a little, even if it's unconscious. You can impact someone's life by telling them "this is my interpretation of that thing", because if you pull the problem further the media/content itself is already a translation, from the brain of a person into a consummable form by others, through storytelling or art or music or or or--

*shakes you* Do you understand?

If tomorrow this MHA panel was translated by a bakudeku fan in english, they would have "seen" that hint because they'd be looking for that specific subtext, and might have adapted the wording.

Am I making sense.

I am, I know I am.
