What would you guys think about a Friday the 13th movie with a fully supernatural Jason?

We have seen him kinda supernatural when he came back from the dead and just a regular guy in the 2009 reboot (underrated film, one of my first horror movies so holds a special place in my heart) but we have never had him fully supernatural. They tried and failed with the concept in "Jason goes to hell" but i think it could really work if done right and do something new with the character.

Other than his regular powers just taken to another level and actually giving him teleportation they could maybe give him control of the land around camp crystal lake? It would be something new for him and could lead to some interesting kills.

Not sure if this would be a cool idea but I think if executed well it could work, what do you guys think?

I think the fact that all of my Twisted Wonderland OCs are based on Sofia the First characters says a lot about me.

(some) exam results came in and I got the highest score in three subjects !!!

I believe this is because I again dedicated my studying to Alexander Hamilton. I wrote a letter to him before every study sesh :3

screw positive vibes only, i want real vibes only. kvetch to me, tell me how you really feel and why. i don’t want to bond with a fake version of you, or myself.

What is your stronger side? I am very curius about psychk. I love this rabbit hole!

me rn bc you've induced some major brain vomit from me about this particular subject and I'm about infodump like a mf ^^^

aHHHH ME TOO!!! I'm hyperfixatin' on it 🕵️ I believe my stronger side is my right side, which presumably controls the left hemisphere of my brain aka the more logical side, which is BABIES because I'm a very creative, think outside of the triangle kinda person so I'd think I'm more of a right brainer. but it also kinda makes sense that I'm a lil' stronger in my right side since it's my dominant side and I do like to overanalyze & overthink things in a logical way (I need to change that belief as a matter of fact) 🤔 hoWevEr I have heard that it's important to use both sides of yer body to keep yer brain strong and lessens the chances of gettin' Alzheimer's and dementia (which I'm manifestin' a cure for both bc hell nah that shit is wack)

heads up, im about to ramble.

when I was readin' up on psych-k and the whole brain state, I stumbled across this new idea that's like 'brain gym' and I didn't think much of it until YESTERDAY when I was like... hm, are there other ways to make both sides of the brain work simultaneously while I'm awake??? cause psych-k is workin' for me and all but I'm sure there are other ways to communicate with both sides of my brain simultaneously to make affirmations stick in a much more efficient manner. when ya have both sides of yer brain workin' in harmony while affirmin' ya get like this deeper level of saturatin' yer mind aNd I wanted more of that bc it gives my brain the t i n g l e s. should also be mentioned that workin' yer entire brain is also a form of what can be referred to as 'super learnin' isn't that fuckin' gnarly??? i think it is. lIke could ya imagine that with this information now ya could literally just sit down and study somethin' with the utmost efficiency and whole brain thinkin' just by crossin' your damn ankles???????? wish I knew this shit when I was still in school--- wait nvm I'm still doin' classes.

there's this weird lil' exercise which is BASICALLY psych-k but ya stand up and do actual movements (super weird but also kinda fun for my monkey brain) iTs cALlEd the cross-crawl and there's a whole bunch of benefits for it (imma copy paste them below) this is all from this website I tried it for a few seconds yesterday and it was weird and cringey so I stopped but imma try it out again today for science 🧍

• Build your core strength

• Release stress and tension

• Enhance whole-brain thinking (get your left and right hemispheres to work together)

• Calm your mind

• Energize your body

it's pretty much a lil' funny dance where ya march side to side— its an actual exercise so y'know

ANYWAYS, it should be known that I am an avid method hopper because all methods work for me and I can do anything I want and it still works, sO I was thinkin' of a crazy ass combination of methods that involves psych-k, cross-crawling, and reverse psychology from @/charmedreincarnation which they described in detail in this post

this sounds insane and all over the place, I know, but I can't help it its because of how my brain chemistry works 😭 im like a mad scientist with manifestation methods at this point

BUT BUT BUT BEFORE I FORGET!!! THERES ANOTHER EXERCISE THAT STIMULATES BOTH SIDES OF THE BRAIN AND INVOLVES ONLY YER HANDS. This bad boy right here

also... why did I find another brain synchronization exercise video... I need to slow my road. but here it is anyways

I had no idea Tai Chi was a form of brain synchronization exercise holy shit???? but ig that makes sense since it is a state of meditation

i could have infodumped WAY more but I forgot most of the other things I wanted to say... 🤡 TY FOR ASKIN' THIS QUESTION!!! ask me more questions if ya want me to info dump again, I'll try to keep my thoughts organized

What is your favorite type of fairy?

I would say my favorite types of fae are selkies and nymphs.

However, the one that I relate to the most are probably changelings. I've been told that I have an odd personality so sometimes I like to believe that I've been left to replace a human baby by my awful fairy parents.

Guys the voyage home is so funny and great and now that I have watched it for the first time, I need to explain my thoughts on how it’s like no other Star Trek movie and that’s why IT WORKS!

The two movies before this were intrinsically within the Star Trek universe between all the conflicts characters and development around the main plot of the two movies. Like, wrath of Kahn brings back an old villain, we see the different dynamic of Spock captaining the ship shortly, the ceiti alpha ear worms are so grossly sci-fi, and of course as many know (spoilers for this old old movie) Spock’s death!! Then, the search for Spock gives us more lore about Vulcan society and stuff: finding out how Spock put his mind into Bones’ brain and that you could reconnect that mind back to its body. Plus, the movie revolves around Klingons being villians (a classic Star Trek trope) and the aftermath of the Genesis planet. Kirk’s son dies! His ship explodes! Spock doesn’t have all his memory!

The voyage home breaks away from these archetypes by setting up a whole new problem: that weird whale signaling space buoy that was making earth. Where did it come from? Why did it go to earth? Ok gang we need to find humpback whales! Fun! Oh no they have been extinct for a long time what are we gonna do? Jump in our stolen Klingon ship with our OG crew and fly around the sun and slingshot ourselves back in time to get some whales. The gang gets to go on wacky adventures!! Spock literally swims with the whales and bonds with it!!!!! Scotty accidentally on purpose gives this corporate guy the means of making transparent aluminum!!! Chekov almost dies!!! Bones, Kirk, and the lady that tags along with them who is a marine biologist, break Chekov out of a hospital with police in tow!!! This lady hops onto Kirk at the last moment while saying goodbye so she would be transported with him and go to the future!! Everyone is so happy to finally have each other safely while the whales are released!! Kirk gets demoted to captain of his own ship because the other 8 charges against the fleet were disregarded because they just saved the world!!!!

Guys it’s so wild and out of nowhere. It’s full of comedy and suspense. There’s so much love between the crew. They get their happy ending in this one! No more trauma put onto them!!

Wicked

By Gregory Maguire

Hello again! This is going to cover the college years of Elphaba, her meeting Galinda and the insanity that ensures during her time at Shiz. Oh my God, this is a lot. There is so much to discuss in this part of the book. It feels like so much happens in this chapter and at the same time absolutely nothing at all. I’m trying really hard not to just summarize the whole thing so please bear with me. (I pretty much summarize the whole thing 😅)

⚠️Warning! Spoilers for the book and it’s musical counterpart! ⚠️

⚠️Content Warning! This story contains explicit language, mild violence, and racial issues! Read at your own risk!⚠️

Gillikin part 1

This chapter covers a lot of stuff in the span of 146 pages. I gonna try to skip the stuff I don’t have a whole lot to talk about. This chapter skips directly to Ms. Galinda on her way to Shiz University, which in the book is an all-girls school. On the train, she meets Dr. Dillamond, the Goat professor (love him). During this time we’ve learned The Wizard of Oz came to power via hostile takeover, and is rolling back the rights of Animals. Animals with a capital A refers to Animals with souls, and the ability to speak. Galinda is incredibly bitchy to the Doctor, strictly because he’s a Goat. Galinda is a shallow, classist, naïve girl that has no concern or care for anything outside of herself. No surprise there. She gets saddled with Elphaba as her roommate because her chaperone (named Ama Clutch) was late and couldn’t vouch for her. There is continued discussion of the rights of Animals and all. We are introduced to Boq, who is smitten with Glinda and attempts to get close to her with the aid of Elphaba (who finds the whole thing absolutely hilarious).

In comparison to the musical, Boq and Elphaba strike up this very interesting friendship. During the summer months the two build an unlikely friendship (along with a gay couple that I desperately want to see in the movie, but know I probably won’t) as they attempt to help Dr. Dillamond provide validity to his existence. Boq works in a library that is barred to Animals and women alike. Galinda goes to a summer lake house one of her friends own.

Moving on from the summer, Elphaba and Galinda are roomies again and for the start of their Sophomore year. Then, the worst, most terrible thing you could ever think of happens.

DOCTOR DILLAMOND IS MURDERED!!

I wanted to scream so bad when I read this scene. All the poor Goat wanted was rights and he was murdered! The murder is so gruesome and bloody! Like no one is gonna believe this is anything other than murder. And it gets worse! Ama Clutch saw the murder from Galinda’s and Elphaba’s room! The head mistress (Madam Morrible or Horrible Morrible which I agree with very much) had her servant do it! This bitch made Ama Clutch go insane to cover up the murder!

With their chaperone out of commission, Horrible Morrible has Elphaba’s old nanny (conveniently named Nanny) come up to Shiz to take over as chaperone to the two girls. She of course has to bring Nessarose with her as she is responsible for her. The thing about Nessarose is, she doesn’t have arms. She was born without arms, and struggles with balance and in turn walking. More can probably be said about this but I’m not exactly the person for that. Nessarose is much like her father, very religious. She is also the father’s favorite, so she’s very spoiled. Which honestly breaks the middle child stereotype (yes, they also have a younger brother named Shell, but he’s not important). Nessarose is described as stunningly beautiful, with her only flaw being said lack of arms.

Without a professor for the girl’s college, they connect the boys and girls college, letting them take classes together. This is where we are introduced to Fiyero.

Now Book Fiyero and Musical Fiyero are incredibly different. For starters, book Fiyero is explicitly a POC, and it is integral to his back story. Before I say anymore, I feel I must preface this with the fact that I’m very white, so I will not analyze these parts of his character as I am not equipped to do so. I ask any POC that feel comfortable in giving their insight on the character please do so. I’m gonna go through really quick and give all the information about Fiyero that is in the book but completely written out of the musical. I also should mention at lot of this reeks of “written by a white guy in the 90’s” so please approach this with caution.

Book Fiyero:

is married at the age of seven (he does reassure us that he hasn’t done the “marital duties”)

is often described as Ochre-skinned

has blue diamond tattoos all over his face and body

he is the crown prince of his tribe during his entrance

his clothes are described as strange and all other characters act like they’ve never seen a POC before.

Right now, Fiyero is a little more of a background character at this moment. He comes into class late and is attacked by a pair of sentient antlers (which my favorite gay couple saves him from). A side character, yet for some reason still friend to the rest of the main characters (named Alvaric) makes blatantly racist comments about Fiyero. Elphaba comes to his defense and that’s kinda it for now.

Now this class they share is run by a professor Nikidik, and this man is a menace to society (and not in a good way). This man kidnaps an orphaned baby lion, who is too young to speak, if it can. He plans to hit this baby lion with a mallet to see if it can feel pain (like what?!). Everyone freaks out (and rightfully so), and two girl students grab the lion off the table and run out of the classroom with the baby in their arms! (The cat distribution system at work!) And this man is so confused why they’re so upset. I imagine this professor’s face to be very punch-able.

After this Boq kinda gets over Glinda all on his own. Like, he still thinks she's pretty but, he doesn't see her as this unattainable goddess and more of a person he can call his friend. However, that interest has not moved to Nessarose. And on this same page, Nessarose gets the shoes. Yes, the red ruby shoes, that is the catalyst for the entirety of Wizard of OZ. So these shoes are a gift from their father. No gift for Elphaba though. I think there's enough people who break down this part of the story, and there's no time Ama Clutch is dying!

Glinda's original chaperone is dying. In the infirmary, surrounded by Glinda, and Elphaba, she has a moment of clarity. Confessing that she did see Madame Morrible's clock work servant (named Grommetik) kill the Doctor Dillamond. And with this horrifying revelation she just dies. Like fully dead. I remember this scene being absolutely mind boggling. Like these two college kids take this so death and murder witness moment so, well (or at least better than I would). Then we cut directly to Ama Clutch's funeral. And this is a "modest" funeral, which of course they mean to say cheap. And this is obviously acknowledged by Nanny of all people.

Ok but this next scene is actually kind important, narratively speaking. Morrible has a private chat with the three leading ladies (yes, she even makes Nanny leave the room). It's here that she:

Admits to commissioning the murder of Dr Dillamond (which I'm still mad about)

Admits to putting a spell on Clutch to drive her crazy after witnessing the murder.

Places a spell on the three girls right then and there. So they can't tell anyone what she just confessed to.

Confesses to be the shadow government in a way. She wants them to be the ruling hands after The Wizard is dead, or something like that. Big idea here is that she wants to put these girls in charge as they're all great at magic and should rule the world.

Morrible ends the spell and the girls kinda collapse. The spell immediately takes hold.

Final thoughts

I didn’t know where to put this in the overall review, but Imma tag it on at the end here. Just like in the musical I think Galinda changing her name after the death of Dr. Dillamond to be pretty shallow. I understand what the attempt was here, and it definitely comes off better here than in the musical. Glinda sees that she was a really shallow person and begins to understand the world outside of her own head and the privileges she comes from. It just feels like she flipped a switch instead of ever having any kind of character growth that the readers can see. What might’ve fixed this would be instead of Galinda spending her entire summer break with her snobbish friends, she goes back to the school early and helps Boq and Elphaba with their research. This would give Galinda the opportunity to experience more in the injustices of Animals. I can just see her asking “why can’t women go to the library? Not like I’d want to of course, but just the principle?” during one of the meet ups.

I don’t know if it’s just me but there are things about the way Elphaba is written that I read as autism-coded. I don’t know if anyone else had that reading, if you did, I would love to compare notes on the subject!

There's definitely a lot of sapphic undertones to the relationship with Glinda and Elphaba, but there's been discussions on that and maybe it'll get and entire separate post on it's own.

Overall this chapter really packed a punch with its content. I hope to do a full character analysis when I’m done the book. If I skipped anything you wanted me to talk about please let me know. I admit I’m rather nervous to keep reading. Coming off of Good Omens, I had really not expected a deep dystopian conversation about rights and the injustices of the systems that revoke them.
