#sorry Marina (I love you!)

stop talking about agab. stop talking about agab. stop talking about "amab and afab experiences." stop saying "afab" when you talk about misogyny. you can say that someone who isn't a woman is affected by misogyny without it being an "afab thing." there are gazillions of women who were assigned male at birth who super duper have experienced misogyny from a young age. I'll kill you.

If I had a nickel for every time my blorbo was a fine gentleman

who thought he's supposed to marry a fine woman (and who proposed)

but there was a pirate from his childhood times and boom! The Chemistry...

I would have two nickels.

y'all can all cancel me (again) for this, but if there's even a SHRED of 'who should I pick?' from Penelope in season 3, I am tuning out SO fast because like. . .sorry not sorry, there IS no choice. Debling is some crusty OC suitor she barely even knows and Colin is a man who she has been so supposedly in love with to the point where she'd ruin her entire family's reputation to have a potential love story with him. Penelope and Colin have background, years of knowing each other, intimacy that few people in the Ton can boast of having (letters, conversations about purpose, fights and arguments and makeups) and her and Debling have. . .a dance or two at a ball because he's a rebound for Penelope's broken heart. he means nothing. he has no nuance, he has no weight to the story, he is such an afterthought to me. either I wanna see Penelope going 'you know what? I don't even LIKE this dude. he's. . .fine, but I don't care about him even a shred as much as I care about Colin' or the INSTANT Colin's like 'you know what? we should get married' if it's not an immediate 'say less, you're already my husband, try returning me without the receipt, Debling whomst?' then I don't want it!

like. . .it's just so frustrating to see all the 'I hope Debling sweeps her off her feet and she rejects Colin's proposal and she makes him work for it and and and-' nonsense from the fandom and it's always tagged and no matter how many times I block it, it just keeps popping up. I go into the Polin tag for POLIN. I don't give a SHIT about a male love interest other than Colin. Not one. Not a shred. Not an iota.

and also. . .Debling has the 'benefit' of not having depth, or character traits, or HISTORY, so peeps can project onto him however they want, but I'm calling it now, there is NOTHING he could do or be that would make me like him more than Colin. Colin will always hit different, and I will always love him more. and if Pen's not on that same page? lol bye

you want me to believe Penelope and Colin are soulmates and it's romance for her to hem and haw about how difficult a decision it is for her to marry a stranger who knows barely anything about her. . .

when Marina was out here dropping banger lines like 'You were the only man with which I could see myself being happy' and 'I do not care about any of these men, where is Colin?'? like hello??? and she wasn't even fully in love with him!!!! but we'll demonize her until the cows come home in our fandom and make her the villain in Polin's love story for DARING to get in between Polin, yet Debling, a white man, is a darling dear perfect prince for getting in between Polin? existing in our fandom solely so Penelope can be like 'lol, Colin ain't shit, let me entertain any and everyone else'?

if that's the direction it goes then, ten toes down and on my mama, she doesn't deserve Colin and she can move because I'm on my way to court him my damn self

and that's that on that

For the record I would like to say. Side Order is everything I wanted and more. The things I was worried about it doing it completely avoided and went above and beyond in everything else. The literal only complaints are that I wish there were more modifications/an endless mode, and that I prefer the music of Octo Expansion, and MAYBE the aesthetics. I'm huge on that vaporwave/80s vibe of OE, but Side Order also has extremely good aesthetics so it's really a tossup. On the whole, however, I'd say I enjoy this more than OE

I'm also shocked how much I liked Acht as a character. I think they added a lot more to the game than I was really anticipating, I love their dynamic with Marina and the history between them being something that's actively relevant to them, and how it talks about the affect Marina's desertion had on the Octarian world. A treat for me, specifically, was insight into Octarian childrens toys, the single most niche thing to possibly get excited by but I've literally been going wild over it. Octarian picture books! Toys! Things that they would've grown up with!

However they didn't have the Neo Octoling armor set so unfortunately that's a 0/10 rating from me

Blonde Marina???

I think we as a society need to embrace dark hair and big brown eyes more ykwim

[ninjagirlstar5]

Kikuo's worthless child song makes me think about Minako and Kizuna quite a bit

Oh.

Ohhhhhhh nooooooo.

That huuuurts.

Minako caring for Kizuna but also being a toxic parent as she often puts her down in response to any sort of emotional outburst instead of trying to offer emotional support, and also just how she ends up passing her unrealistic and toxic expectations on beauty standards down to her because "that's all that matters for a girl." And by the end of the song, the child, now older, disappears (a.k.a. die in Kizuna's case) and the parent is left berating themselves for everything that's happened, wishing they can turn back time. But all Minako can do is live with the regrets of the past and the self-hatred that's left behind.

was on facetime with my best friend and was told to stop saying that all of my emotions are “debbie gallagher core”

[irregularbillcipher]

idk is this is a hot take or not but while the soundtrack to the painful is absolutely iconic i think the joyful is more musically interesting and fun

[splattales]

"But did you listen? Of course not. No amount of love can buy you a house. And why do you think people become famous? Earn enough and you'll be in the public eye anyway."

"Marina, I think I might hate your human."

The trajectory of marinas life is so crazy if you think about it it sounds like something out of a wattpad fanfiction

[vse-kar-vem]

🤡🎬⭐

omg thank you for the ask!!!! all exciting questions 💞💞🤭

🤡- describe the song in the worst way possible

bubblegum bitch- marina

ooooh this feels sacrilegious..... but looks like someone was self-centred in highschool. like girl you are NOT some grand manipulator the world doesn't revolve around you 😢😢

🎬- if you scripted/directed a music video for this song what would it like?

porque- luma

OHHH this song is so perfect for this question 💗💗 so i'm imagining somethjng with really bold and unnatural colours-- just the album cover essentially, maybe some green? have it take place in some sort of claustrophobic nightclub that lends itself to strange characters and stranger circumstances, have some funky cool trippy stuff happen-- seduction?? maybe?? i don't actually know what this song is about 😭😭 as the song winds down into the final chorus (with the little echo in the back) we can finally take a breath of fresh air as whoever the pov character is stumbles back out onto the street, backlit by the red lights. a few shots on their manic expression, the world swirling around them, before we CUT TO BLACK!!

⭐️- what are two songs you like that are similar to this one?

床 (lie)- no party for cao dong

omg banger 👁️👁️ uhhh it has that kind of indie rock vibe? ok i think it kind of bears similarities to ne bi smel in a way-- they both Escalate to an extent at the end, although imo ne bi smel has a cynical flavour that really can't be matched 😞 another similar song would be nicotine stains by second thoughts? in terms of indie music. also a banger :^D !!

I think Hawkeye would love the song hermit the frog by Mariana

Ooh!! I'm slightly embarrassingly uncultured in Marina's music so I had to go listen to it! Please someone anyone who is more into this music comment on this please!!

I think that modern day music with characters like this is so interesting! I don't really disagree with you, but I think his stance would depend on whether he had grown up with modern music AND how old he was. Also hmm. i think yeah that it would really depend on how he engaged with it... SORRY FOR MAKING THIS DEEPER THAN IT IT !!! My joke-ish answer is like

Broke: Hawkeye would love Marina and the Diamonds bc he is that bitch

Woke: Hawkeye is an adult man AND from the 50s he would not get it or enjoy it

Bespoke: Hawkeye could end up finding a lot to attach to in this music, and I think that if he actually sat down and listened to it it would end up doing a lot to his psyche. I think that the class clown act and his need to be in the center of every narrative around him stems from insecurity, and this genre of music speaks to that a lot!! If he could listen to it unironically and without people seeing him, he probably COULD end up feeling seen by it. But I don't know if he would find comfort in that?

Anyways I think that listening to Marina and the Diamonds would have fixed Margaret AND made her worse. I want to play Mowgli's Road to her
