Woah woah woah Kieran Culkin’s a nazi in Succession?!?! (I have never seen it)

i dont know how to answer this other than with shock and awe that you follow shiv roy canon url but have never been influenced to watch the show lmaoooo

i dont really look at succession posts or anything so i dont know if this is controversial, but in my mind tomgreg should have straight (or not romantically interested in tom) greg. tom should love and desire greg Carnally but greg is there for the money/power/connection and because tom is his only reliable source for that. my reasons are 1) it is the funniest option 2) there should be no chance of happy relationships on the spoiled dysfunctional rich people show 3) i find it more compelling.

Nothing says happy family like fighting over social services since 5am

[st-just]

This family is like if the Successiom family was 80% less repressed about their psycohsecxual hangup and just perverts instead.

the funniest thing about watching successiom after seeing so many posts about it on my dash is that everyones like kendall roman and shiv are toxic siblings ❤! love! and then i watch the show and suddenly there is connor the fourth secret sibling that literally nobody posts about. everyone else im "oh yeah i know you from tumblr" and then with connor im like "who the fuck is that"

This is interesting because my experience is the opposite.

I do think the Greens are more likeable and ultimately in the right, but also that us Team Green fans come from a Watsonian pov while TB is the Doylist one. As being TG means believing that Aegon is the rightful monarch all the people I know who argue in favour of this do it from an unsderstanding of the in-universe successiom laws. We are not TG because we like the characters, we are TG because we believe Aegon is the true king

this show would have been so much better if they’d made both sides way more equal. Because at the moment they’re not. There's a good side and a bad side. Like theres no way I can argue the greens are as ‘likeable’ as the blacks, even if I prefer to watch them. If they were so dead set on making the ‘choose a team’ thing such a big deal (which is all annoying promotional nonsense anyway but that's a point for another day) then I want to be TORN. they could have at least made it so not every bad thing that happens to the greens can be blamed on themselves. the writing just can't shake off the underlying heroes and villains narrative long enough to realise the whole point of this story is these are all meant to be complex, entire individuals who were for the most part just trying to survive. Both teams should be further into a grey area than they are. Ultimately both Alicent and Rhaenyra are just trying to keep their familys alive. That doesn't make them villains, even as it puts them at odds with each other. Why was this not dealt with in a more interesting way? It was right there to play with.

it would have been so easy to make us torn over who to support. Instead, the fanbase is split between a majority of team black, which is usually people who are approaching this from a watsonian perspective where they have bought into the ‘rightful ruler’ thing and also kinda understandably think rhaenyra would make a better monarch than her siblings, and a minority of team green, as people who are approaching it from a doylist perspective, meaning they just find team greens characterisation more interesting and don't rly care about the throne bc everyone dies anyway. And that's disappointing honestly. It should be split more evenly, that would make this story so much more engaging. Holding the greens in some way accountable for everything bad that happens to them and the blacks accountable for nothing does absolutely nothing to flesh out the core reality of this tragedy - the reality that this was always going to be the ending no matter the choices these characters made. It was set in motion before most of them were even born. The shows even written it so the death of poor little jaeherys can be blamed on his family. After daemon sent an assassin into their home!! Like are you serious. Its a weak disneyfied retelling of the original story, which is what literally no one comes to asoiaf for. stop trying to spoonfeed us and give us some real emotional turmoil for once!!!

Cleaned up my sketches of smol Roy siblings + 1 Hirsch cousin!

Personal headcanons: Kendall had a small circle of secret admirers (though he was kind of an acquired taste), Roman was a very pretty kid when he was younger, and Shiv definitely had a tomboy phase

The most realistic part of successiom : how fuckin ugly everybody at the top is. Rich people are so fucking hideous probably bc of the inbreeding idk or maybe that's how certain yts just look.

The least realistic part : how "fat" Chiffon is. She isn't, but for rich yt ppl she certainly is. They love anorexia.
