Tamlin is actually such an underrated character in acotar. Because of feyres very biased narrative she forces readers to ignore the complexity of his character and man. its sad

Tamlin is a character who is genuinely GOOD at his core. He changed so much of the spring court for good, eliminating slavery within the spring lands and mortals having more protection. Hes a morally good character that made a few mistakes and is boiled down to just those mistakes. Locking feyre in the house and the magical/emotional blow up, which are both pretty decent fuck ups (i dont think siding with hybern fully counts as he was a double agent all along and tamlin was decently justified in thinking feyre was being kept against her will. lets be fr here) and even after he’s extremely fucked over by the nightcourt, his lands and court burned to shit, he still saves rhysand. Saves rhysand and tells feyre to be happy, even when he has every reason to NOT do that!

Hes a character that clearly holds himself to a higher standard. throughout acotar he puts lucien and feyres safety above his own, even sending feyre away when she was the only one who could save him. Even though what he did to her wasnt great its not completely irredeemable, rhysand did much worse things to feyre and other people but hes living his best life while Tamlin seems to find himself unworthy of being a person (acosf wheres hes been in beast form for roughly over two years) hes a perfectionist who now doesnt even think he deserves anyone because he accidentally hurt the people he loves most.

Sjm accidentally created a beautifully rich and morally righteous character who is so extremely fucked by the narrative. Which doesnt even work half the time as sjm cant seemingly commit to making him a full villain (seemingly by accident again she gave him quite a reasonable explanation to everything he did ‘wrong’ but still chooses to make him a punching bag)

If Tamlin was genuinely a morally evil character he wouldnt have NEARLY the amount of fans as he does. Hes a character that requires the minimum amount of media literacy and comprehension to understand and i LOVE him.

really obsessed with boy!dad Bruce Wayne and his one perfect princess of a daughter of whom he’s had minimal conflict with now suffering under the reign of feral granddaughters he has absolutely no control over. All of his boys end up having daughters. Dick has a daughter. Jason has two daughters. Tim and Kon get married and end up adopting a daughter. Duke inevitably ends up having a daughter. And Zaydee Bruce is, of course, always willing to babysit. He’ll never say no. But he is so unbelievably out of his element. What’s he supposed to do with them? Should he really be allowing them to go out dressed like that? Mar’i, dear god, please stop shooting star bolts inside the house, sweetie.

Nathalie Baptiste at HuffPost:

For the last four years, conservative and right-wing activists and pundits have been engaged in a culture war that demonizes racial justice, the LGBTQ community and progressive ideals. So, when presumptive Democratic nominee Vice President Kamala Harris announced Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) as her running mate on Tuesday, the culture warriors immediately dusted off their old playbook to attack Walz. Walz, a veteran and former teacher, has been a champion of LGBTQ rights, public education and racial equality — a platform that is anathema to Republican ideology. As governor, he approved a measure that would provide free menstrual products to public schools, including putting them in both girls and boys bathrooms.

Scandalized by the idea, Chaya Raichik, the person behind the Libs of TikTok account, which is dedicated to smearing the LGBTQ community, began calling Walz “Tampon Tim,” suggesting that he should be embarrassed by advocating for period products. But studies have shown that there is still a lot of stigma around menstruation, and 23% of students struggle to afford their own pads and tampons. Elsewhere, Fox News’ Jesse Watters recently took aim at Minnesota’s new flag, which debuted this year, and blamed Walz for the change. “This guy changed the flag of the state to look more like Somalia,” Watters claimed this week. The old flag, which was introduced in 1957, depicted a white man plowing the land while an Indigenous person rode horseback. Native communities in Minnesota asserted that the flag promoted the removal of Indigenous people from the land.

The new flag design was conceived by a state commission created by the legislature. While Walz did sign the bill creating that commission into law, he played no part in the design process. Also, the star design that conservatives allege was a copy of the Somalian flag was actually intended to be a literal representation of the state motto, “The Star of the North.” But that hasn’t stopped conservatives and right-wing figures from making false claims like this and others about Walz. During a recent Fox News appearance, Stephen Miller, who was a senior adviser to Trump, said Walz and Harris would “turn the entire Midwest into Mogadishu,” also citing Walz’s backing of refugee resettlement programs. Meanwhile, Angela Morabito, the spokesperson for the Defense of Freedom Institute, a conservative nonprofit, posted claims on social media Tuesday that Walz kept “pornographic books in Minnesota schools” and “promoted critical race theory.”

These are popular lies among conservatives and right-wingers, who have spent the last three years attempting to ban books that promote racial equality or have LGBTQ themes from schools by falsely claiming they are sexually explicit or harmful to children.

But some of the most unhinged attacks have come from Christopher Rufo, a conservative activist who is largely credited with manufacturing a panic about critical race theory and helping Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ (R) takeover of the New College, a small liberal arts school in Florida. In a series of social media posts filled with lies, Rufo said Tuesday that Walz “shouts ‘trans women are women’ in the shower,” “knows that child castration is life-saving, gender-affirming care” and “speaks fluent critical race theory.”

The right-wing attacks on Minnesota Governor and Kamala Harris running mate Tim Walz are weird, especially the fake outrage about tampons in schools for grades 4-12 and the redesign of the Minnesota flag.

where is the netflix documentary about the 25 people harry says he killed during his military service

[straightasaaro]

A very suspicious little pattern

Call me crazy, but I’ve gotten through two very popular book series and one tv show adaptation (and a friend who read the books of that adaption) and I’ve noticed a little something.

Each series includes a scorn love interest of the badass mc who, if already isn’t abusive to her, does:

kill one of her (could be found) family members

Chase her through all the lands

ignore her demands to leave her the fuck alone or that she has no interest in him anymore

put her through general hell

hurt her or her (found) family members a lot

and yet some how, by the end of the book series, a lot of fans love this very toxic man despite all listed above. They usually list this as their reasons:

he’s conventionally attractive

he’s said that he did it all out of protection of the mc

he has trauma

I don’t get it. Yes someone can have trauma and want to protect someone, but when the want to protect trumps the respect he has for the mc as a person who can make her own decisions; that’s not love. Trauma does not excuse his (usually murderous) actions. Especially when he’s inflicting trauma on the mc and all her friends as well.

I want to know why these fandoms romanticize toxic, borderline abusive men who won’t take no for an answer from someone they supposedly love.

please don’t start a war in the replies; I just genuinely want to know 🥲

Exposition du 28 janvier au mars 2003 Galeries de la Vieille Charité, Musées de Marseille

Associant les techniques ancestrales des tampons de bois en usage à Alep (Syrie) et la couleur traditionnelle des indigotiers marseillais, R. Koraïchi a créé de nouvelles étoffes : aujourd'hui exposées sous forme de bannières ou de carrés, elles se déclinent autour du chiffre 7 et de sa mystique.   L'artiste méditait. Il était venu chercher l'inspiration dans cette cité vieille de plusieurs millénaires. Alep au nord de la Syrie. Comme les couleurs voyagent, il voulait retrouver des traces de bleu sur cette route de l'Inde d'où venait l'indigo. Car en Alep, au fil des siècles, cette teinture avait été l'objet de nombreuses études dont certains secrets furent peu à peu révélés: indigo mêlé d'écorce de grenade avec addition d'eau de dattes ou de suc de raisin noir broyé ou de figues piétinées. Ces macérations étranges conféraient à l'indigo d'Alep une haute réputation dans toute la Méditerranée, Rachid Koraïchi souhaitait aussi acquérir de la soie, chiner de ces tampons anciens que les imprimeurs de tissu utilisaient encore au début du XXe siècle. Il les mêlerait aux siens qu'il allait créer ici, inspiré, comme nulle part ailleurs, par les étoffes imprimées. L'ambassade de France, à Damas, et les responsables des services culturels, sensibles au projet à ce point prometteur lui accordèrent une aide chaleureuse et il fut hébergé en une demeure, vestige du Mandat français, toute proche de la citadelle. L'artiste allait y travailler en paix et remonter la mémoire de l'indigo et des routes de la soie.

I keep loads of basic supplies in my car because there are so many homeless people in my city. I'm leaving the gym, and this dude stops and asks for a light. While I'm handing him my lighter, he asks if I have any water. I say I only have Gatorade right now, and move to my trunk and tell him he's welcome to anything he needs back there. He picks up some soap, sniffs it, and says, "This is all garbage. Nobody wants this," and left. And, like, I'm not sure if I need to rethink what I'm stocking my car with or if he was just an asshole.

[rosenecklaces]

I'm tired of this overused argument but like, pointing out rhysand countless mistakes/ trying to paint feyre like this underlying woman who actually was the cause of tamlin downfall is moronic as hell. Like I don't know how to tell tam fuckers than spitting about rhys instance of canon asshole-ry doesn't make your ugly ass blonde husband less of an asshole either or erase the fact he's-an-abuser. He aaalways had anger issues BEFORE his ptsd that fucking lulu himself was witness of. Sure, Rhys is messed up especially in the first ones, I'm not particularly opposed to that, but one character flaws doesn't mean another one is free from theirs all of a sudden lmao

And again, blaming a fucking victim perfect or not, from A MAN'S actions is plain old misogyny and just dumb all together. He's a woman's beater and yall should just dealt with it like damn fucking adults with pubic hair already

[ervotica]

i’m mad that sjm made lucien sad and not snarky anymore

[cosmicrhetoric]

you know it's my own fault for reading it in one sitting but i can't even tell if i liked chlorine. it really really achieved what it was trying to do but i fr kept getting distracted by how realistic the locker room/team sports culture was........even the gay stuff. especially the gay stuff.
