wait, WHAT?!?!?!

The only way to save the JD lore is for something insane to happen. I think Mihaly needs to have canonically killed somebody.

I know the writers gave Nacho's character huge amounts of iconography and symbolism, and the flower is the one that's mentioned/referenced the most, but my favourite has to be this shot in which the "halo" doesn't quite reach his head.

Like yeah, he died a sacrificial lamb, a martyr and a twisted christ figure, but he'll never be a saint.

I think it really speaks to something that while I still hold an emotional attachment towards Fairy Tail since it was my first anime, in my mind it’s still “that anime with the Worldwide Orgasm Attack”

the thing about horses is that they know what it means to sin and they revel in it. horse heaven exists yet it is barren because all horses knowingly gallop into the fiery pits of hell when their time comes. they welcome it with open hooves

I love IDW Prowl, he’s my beloved tragic-bastard. But also, every time he is treated as the default version of Prowl, so much so that ‘Master-Manipulator-War-Crimes-Mcgee,’ is attributed to him by fans no matter the continuity, an angel loses its wings.

“Perhaps it was something that hit me, perhaps it was something I ate. But out of the blue, I dreamed I met you, and you said to me, "Hi, ya Gate!" Millions have heard you play Chopin, the critics applaud and approve. But millions more would simply adore to hear you get in the groove!”

— Judy Garland & José Iturbi, “The Joint is Really Jumpin’ in Carnegie Hall”

Dipper makes a deal with a salesman who’s new in town. The salesman has more points than most, and sharper angles than should be possible for a single person, but Dipper knows better by knowing, and sees him for what he is. He’s not a person. He’s a relic of Dipper’s childhood, of nightmares that are frequent but regular. Regular as in normal, not tinted gold and compelling him to scratch his eyelids off when he wakes. It’s the kind of thing that the human mind dreams up on its own as a defense mechanism against some horrible trauma. They’re a product of Dipper’s own mind, and no one else’s, and that is a comfort, in a way. Bill Cipher is not back from the dead because he was never dead to begin with, but he’s come back all the same. It’s not an issue of what, or even who, but rather: how much can Bill Cipher do for Dipper? When the fate of Gravity Falls once again hangs in the balance—that, and the sanctity of the entire dimension—shaking a few hands is the least of Dipper’s burdens. Anything to ease the way.

Bill & Dipper in the same universe

In 15 seasons Supernatural we had only two female main cast members and that too for only one season. Homophobia may have been SPN’s biggest problem but misogyny was definitely a close second.

Someone asked me about that "Utility Engineering" AI safety paper a few days ago and I impulse-deleted the ask because I didn't feel like answering it at the time, but more recently I got nerd-sniped and ended up reproducing/extending the paper, ending up pretty skeptical of it.

If you're curious, here's the resulting effortpost

*I dip my toes into the pool* Idk, I think what's happening with Helluva Boss is still a failure on a storytelling level, even if things are going to be addressed later on.

Even *if* Stolas hypocrisy is going to be addressed later, there's a *reason* people are getting So Mad about what he said during Apology Tour, and that's because the narrative has failed to challenge Stolas' perception of himself and the situation.

Blitz, the affected party, doesn't challenge this despite the fact that he can absolutely challenge the idea that Stolas doesn't look down on him, or just ANY other part of that rant.

He gets this, thoughtful (?) expression. He's thinking about what Stolas is saying. But doesn't push back with ANYTHING. The A.) The fact he felt objectified B.) How exploitive the book deal was (also, Stolas said the deal was wrong, but now gestures with his book on "support you" was the deal wrong or was it him "supporting" Blitz? You'd think he'd know the difference by now).

He doesn't even push back against the "You couldn't be bothered to come help me" with "My DAUGHTER was getting her VERY RARE, HARD TO BOOK SHOTS AND SHE WAS TERRIFIED" Any ONE of these could've been shown, to push back against Stolas' narrative but it's not. In fact, Blitz buys the premise when it comes to Striker, when Stolas says he sounds like him he says "No I dont!"

And that's only using the instances that Blitz himself could've challenged Stolas' narrative. There are opportunities that Verosika could've done the same, but are equally as passed up on. Her interactions only strengthen the idea that he's correct imo.

All of this makes it seem like Stolas' reality is the correct one, and Blitz's fumbling around isn't a reaction to gaslighting but him being made to look Silly about what he thinks Stolas is doing. And people with long-term memory are very rightly going "Wait...no???"

No amount of "Those will be dealt with" from the creator will make up for the fact that the narrative gives No acknowledgment that Stolas is even objectively incorrect, let alone that he had his hand in the way this shook down.

It's not "good story telling" to be able to use Canon evidence to point out how wrong he was, because those should be the supporting evidence that the show gives us, along *with* the *current storyline we're seeing* showing those nuances, even if it chooses to focus on Blitz's faults at the time.
