mcyt artists get praise for making beautiful character designs out of ugly minecraft skins but i think animators and pmv makers need to also be praised for making very emotional works of art while using crunchy ass shitty stream audio

The reason why I first thought Goncharov was real, wasn't because of the cast or the poster or the extensive cinematography analysis...It was because the posts that waxed poetic about the homoerotic subtext were higher on the trending page than those that actually explained the plot.

trying to describe black sails to people is my personal sisyphean task. “it’s a pirate show” bad. “it’s functionally a prequel to treasure island but also it’s not at all” bad again, and also confusing. “it’s about pirates trying to destroy western civilization” mostly only true of the second half of the show and also doesn’t fully capture what i love about it. “it’s a pirate show about the power of stories, how civilization uses shame to keep people in line and turns them into monsters, and the power of queer rage. it’s got some of the best acting, writing, everything of any show i’ve ever seen.” the most accurate, but way too long and makes me sound pretentious and insane. send help i just want to talk about my favorite show.

Sick Days 3

[ 1 - 2 - 3 ]

The unfortunate thing about getting sick in a big family is that when one person falls, the rest follow like dominoes.

My poor brother… he was always the one to get sick right after me. He’d always insist blame on whoever was sick first and grumble about it when we checked on him lol

Also you bet that if Donnie lost his voice his brothers would absolutely be teasing him about it. Someone would be all like “I feel a close kinship with frogs, we’re both amphibians” and he’d be seething in the corner typing furiously about the differences between reptiles and amphibians but no one would open their phone.

the dialogue choices in this game should be more diabolical

AND!!! AAAAAND ☝️☝️☝️ (im going insane all of this is probably in my head)

Viktor looks worried and unsure in the beginning, brows furrowed a little, he sees Jayce pull him closer but he looks uncertain until Jayce's hand reaches his neck, that's when Viktor's expression really shifts, first by raising his eyebrows, then lowering them and shutting his eyes and I'd even argue his eyes don't close in one movement, he sort of has a split split split second where his eyes seem to look further down Jayce's before closing (could be looking at his lips, could be just an eye movement animation thing to fit the very ''alive'' quality of body language but i know u know we all know)

PLEASE LOOK AT VIKTOR'S FACE

Jayce's hand on Viktor's neck (the thumb on the angle of Viktor's jaw then under his ear...) seems like it's pulling him closer with the arm movement, he looks at Viktor briefly and closes his eyes, clenching his teeth (to brace for impact I guess), and u can see in Viktor's eyes that he watches him do that THEN also closes his eyes and goes for the forehead touch... he trusts him and follows his move...

also this might just be me but Viktor's expression reminds me of the younger Viktor (obviously he does look younger/healthy here anyway on purpose but yk) bc it feels like a sorta ''oh, okay we're doing that now'' moment he used to have with Jayce of following his lead when he had a hunch or something, it feels genuine, earnest and most importantly, trustful.

idk I might just be insane

I love libraries.

I'm browsing the WWI shelves (as you do) and notice a very old book about the war. I glance at the first pages that talk about how one day the war will be over and we'll look at this place and not see any signs of the battlefield.

Then it hits me. And I check the publishing date.

This book was printed before the war's end. Not written. Printed. The physical object was created in 1918, while the war in question was raging and the end was as yet uncertain.

Now I'm standing on the other side of the apocalypse, with this physical link to that era in my hands. I'm living proof that the war did end and life did go on and we can all look at the end of the world as a long-ago memory.

Reading old books is cool enough, connecting our minds and hearts through the ideas of people who lived long ago, but there's something extra profound about holding a copy of the book that comes from the time that it was written. It's a physical link between the past and the present connecting me to those long-ago people. A piece of the past come into the future that gives me the chance to almost take the hand of some long-ago reader, to hold something they could have held, connecting not just mentally but physically to their era, a moment of connection across more than a century.

Excuse me while I go weep.

i don't like the growing opinion that people are being 'too hard' on deku for his failing to save shigaraki.

i've seen quite a few people complaining that a lot of the bnha-critical crowd are being too mean to deku for getting tomura killed, arguing that it isn't really his fault, and that hes a 16 year old child soldier who's been failed by almost every adult in his life, why should we be putting all of this on his shoulders? hes just a kid after all?

and the truth is, they're right. deku IS a 16 year old boy whos had the fate of the world thrust on his shoulders. but the story itself just plainly refuses to acknowledge this.

the narrative doesn't acknowledge how fucked up having a school that trains literal children how to be combo cop-celebrities is. it only tentatively acknowledges the fact that a universe having combo cop-celebrities is fucked up, and even then the only people who ever point this out are antagonists, who are portrayed and treated in-universe as untrustworthy. the narrative doesn't care how fucked up dekus circumstances are. the narrative treats deku like hes a fucking messiah here to touch the hearts of the evil depressed villains with his magical empathetic heart of gold before they get blown up or just sent to fucking superhell for daring to challenge the status quote.

deku isn't a person. he's barely even a fucking character at this point. he's a plot device, and a mouth piece for the objectively shitty themes bnha is trying to spout. the themes that tell you that if you're mistreated by society and want to do something about it, you're a villain. that disrupting the status quote and refusing to repent to some random teenage boy spouting empty platitudes at you means you deserve to get sent to fucking superhell. the themes that portray people fighting for civil change as mass murdering supervillains. the themes that look the audience dead in the eye and can call deku the greatest hero to ever live.

deku, who barely spared a second thought to lady nagant telling him the truth about the hero commission. who spouts meaningless platitudes about heroism and morality at nagant, and aoyama, and toga and shigaraki, when even the thought that he should question the world around him comes up. who's constantly talked about as this truly kind, empathetic person, but hasn't spared an empathetic thought to literally anyone who is classified as a villain. who listened to every authority figure around him except the ones who asked him to question his worldview. who saw la bravas tears, shigarakis various breakdowns, himikos plead for understanding, chisakis catatonic state, lady nagants truth, and barley batted a fucking eye. deku, who killed tomura shigaraki.

people don't criticize deku for failing shigaraki because they just hate deku. people criticize deku because of what he represents. because hes a mouthpiece for the atrocious morals and themes of this ideologically rotten manga. because any character he had was chopped up to bits in favor of the incomplete husk we have now. people criticize deku because hes the main character of my hero academia. theres nothing more damning then that.
