The Boys | 2.08 What I Know

THERE AIN'T NO ATLAS, KID. NEVER WAS.

if you peel him back far enough, there's nothing but a pile of theater masks

like, it's really fun how fontaine starts spiralling out the closer jack gets to him in the final arc of the game and returns to appropriating the image of family (the fake family in the beginning, the flawed father position later) to try and appeal to jack in some way but it's like. buddy. baby. you already took off your mask. anything you try and put on after this is going to come across as cheap and desperate. the magic is gone! and personally? I'm hooting and hollering

Interviewer: So you've announced that you're doing your own streaming platform correct? What's going to change really you know? Ryan: For Ghost Files, I mean it's kind of the thing that's going to allow us to take bigger swings like we did this season, like going international, upgrading some of our kit, and just overall making the show better and more sustainable behind the scenes 'cuz it's a really hard show to make. And then as far as like other series it's going to allow us to make those a little bit better but also allow us to make new series in general, and also bring on new faces to the to the channel that we haven't previously been able to. YouTube is like a little bit of a harder place sometimes for that kind of content to survive…sometimes if something isn't getting the proper amount of views that it would need it wouldn't survive perhaps in that environment but on a different environment, perhaps our own platform, then maybe it will have a better chance and now that we have both it'll allow us to, I guess, really give everything a try. But really more than anything it's just about improving things across the board and then taking bigger risks on our shows.

last thing i’ll say; people aren’t owed free content but creatives aren’t owed financial compensation either

Its honestly so funny to me when people talk about ryan condal's "team black bias" and its like yall... i dont think condal cares about the fictional waring factions of incest kingdom... i think he just thinks rhaenyra is his main character and thus warps the world to suit rhaenyra

From what my instincts instructed me to do today, sometimes not making eye contact can keep me out of trouble.

spoilers so read at your own risk

maybe i'm in the minority here but the idea that helaena's death will fall flat without the inclusion of maelor seems ridiculous to me.

helaena being a dreamer recontextalizes her death in the show and i, personally, like the idea that she dies dies of inevitability. she has seen all of their fates. she has seen aemond drown and aegon on a wooden throne. she has seen that daeron has stopped singing (i subscribe to the cricket theory) and the rat catchers. she has seen everything.

so the idea that helaena dies, not because of her grief over her children, not to avoid being forced to fight, not to avoid being killed by someone else, but rather because of inevitability, because she can't escape this end, because she knows where this war leads and knows there is no peaceful end for any of them is better, in my opinion, than another typical madness grief spiral (especially if they stick to this for alicent later; it would just be 2 versions of the same thing)

helaena would die on her own terms. she takes her fate in her own hands, doesn't allow her life to rest in the hands of any other. wife, mother, sister, queen. no longer. in her final moments, it's her choice at last. she was happier before she was queen. and the moment her foot is out the window, she is queen no longer.

fair is fair

the watcher crew posted an apology you can watch here

I think it's only fair that I posted this, seeing as I've been posting and reblogging and doomscrolling in this tag for three days.

I believe this is a good apology and they addressed basically every piece of criticism

my thoughts under the break have been edited for clarity

I left a comment on the video, which I will report here.

“as I commented on the "goodbye youtube" video with my own gripes, I think it's fair that I comment on this one.

I believe this was a very good apology and a fair solution to sustain your company, I believe a lot of people will decide to support you on this.

I'm glad the callous comment of "everyone can afford 6$" was addressed.

I'm also glad you decided to give free subs to your patrons, as they were the people that would've been fucked over the most.

I think the trust has been wounded and emotions hurt, but this honest apology will go a long way to repair things.

also great that you didn't put music in the background and didn't use tech bro buzzwords, as that would've come off as extremely fake"

this basically sums up my current thoughts on the situation, I'm glad they decided to consider the fans' voices and that they found a way to make this decision sustainable, but I still feel very bruised by everything that happened.

don't misunderstand me, I am extremely glad they decided to apologise, but I think the shitstorm could've been avoided altogether if they had put in more thought from the beginning.

as of right now, I'm still unsubscribed and it will be a while before I sub again, if I ever will. this was a huge mistake, and even if I'm glad for the apology, I'm disillusioned and disappointed.

sorry. sorry. i am still living in the 'the first face thirteen saw after regenerating was graham's' world that i constructed earlier, and in this world where thirteen is having a weird flirtation/doomed from the start lovers/we're just friends or found family we swear dynamic with graham after getting his wife killed, it would just make this entire scene so much funnier:

JAKE: I was supposed to come out and see him launch. Say goodbye as he went off to the ISS. GRAHAM: And you didn't go. JAKE: He knew what he was taking on with me. I don't do emotions. And I'm really not good at sticking with things, you know? Commitment. Also, I really don't like foreign travel. GRAHAM: Wow. So you were quite the catch, then. JAKE: Yeah, he's a lucky, lucky bloke. My husband is an astronaut. Do you have any idea how hard it is being married to somebody that impressive? It sort of sends me the other way. I wallow in being unreliable. Like I'm punishing him.

like. SORRY. but alternate universe where we got a companion sort-of romance for these seasons and it was graham. play with me in this space. do you have any idea how hard it is being married to somebody that impressive, graham. graham, who are you thinking of. your late wife. or the doctor.

take my hand. imagine it. the tragedy of it. thirteen should get to fuck that old man. but not really, they need to never consummate this relationship ever, or acknowledge what's happening. as is good companion romance tradition.

the thing that continues to annoy me about hotd is how ryan condal keeps defanging the female characters

hi 13 second clip that i will be obsessed with for years to come because mikksy and lombo are doing mikksy and lombo things in the bg as they usually do how are you doing

theres something about mikksy looking over to his left and spacing out but when he sees long brown hair in his periphery he turns towards it, sees lombo struggling to pass off the cup and stares at him until lombo comes his way. the pining is palpable. i can feel it from here. he has the targetting program of a turret hes locking on.

also someone seems to either dropped a hat(?) or something of that nature because right as lombo steps forward to where mikksy is he bends down to get it but mikksy seeing him, also makes to reach for it but lombo seems to have it covered so he just bows like a chicken for a bit because his gentlemanly code intiated (rare sight) seeing a beautiful man bend down to retrieve an object...

and then after lombo comes up he immediately gets an arm around him and ushers him into his side. MANS GOT A FULL TOOTHY GRIN ON SEEING LOMBO. TH- AND HE REALISES HOW BIG HE MUST BE SMILING BECAUSE HE JUST CLOSES HIS MOUTH AND TRIES TO PLAY OFF THE FACT HE DIDN'T JUST HAVE THE GOOFIEST GRIN ON HIS FACE.

THE WAY LOMBOS CHEEK IS SO SMUSHED INTO HIS SHOULDER HE BARELY REACHES. PERFECT SIZE TO SNUGGLE INTO THE COLLARBONES. IM SORRY WHERE IS PLAYGROUND BULLYING PRETENSE??? SO WE'VE LOST THAT. WE'RE JUST GONNA COURT EACH OTHER NOW. WE'VE FINALLY ADMITTED TO THE ELEPHANT IN YHE ROOM AND WE WILL BE ACTING ON OUR FEELINGS HONESTLY. IS THAT WHAT WE'RE DOING. IT ONLY TOOK BOTH OF YOU BEING DRUNK. OKAY.
