I've said this before but valjean's view of the bishop throughout the book gets me so bad because like. he knew him for what, a day maybe? and it absolutely had a vast & profound & positive impact on him. but then he goes on to spend the whole book comparing himself to his idealized vision of the bishop & finding himself wanting & feeling guilty and miserable about every petty or selfish thought that crosses his mind. but it's so fucked up because like we as the readers know the bishop better! we've read the whole first book and we know he came from a privileged & wealthy background, that he was a rake when he was young, it wasn't til he was in his 40s or 50s to have some sort of change of heart & become a priest (a similar age to valjean when he met him!), that he has moments that seriously shake him, that he has some dubious politics left over, that he still has moments of pettiness he has to work through on the page (his initial approach to the member of the convention, e.g.). and also he's just kind of a weird old guy (affectionate). and like this is not to criticize the bishop, I think he's a genuinely really good guy, just that while the bishop has a realistic view of himself & his past ("he described himself with a smile, an ex-sinner,"), valjean is not getting any of this except maybe like. what would be mentioned in the newspaper when the bishop died. so his whole view of him is of this one shining moment where he changed his life and he feels he doesn't live up to that. which is sad! because the bishop understood him more than he realized & wouldn't have wanted him to feel that way
#haven't edited this post so hopefully it makes sense#there is also something to be said for the other way that i think valjean comparing himself to the bishop unfavorably is unfair because#like the bishop is very much coming from a place of privilege & respect & authority not just in his background but in his current position#which is not to devalue any of his truly good work ofc!! but just that in many ways it's Easier to be good & charitable & humble & kind etc#if you're coming from a place of security y'know? <- and this is something the narrative of the book gets even if jvj doesn't#thoughts#les mis#anyways this is one of the reasons why the bishop sections are important & any abridgement would make the text poorer

Just a girl who wants to be her mother’s daughter in the ways that matter
#Such a tenacious go getter & the smartest woman ik#Has NEVER looked back at a man twice. Knows she’s beautiful & that attention is guaranteed. Never desperate for male validation ever#The best fashion sense ik. She’s the epitome of classic & vintage#Doesn’t gaf what others are doing / is always tunnel visioned on her own goals#A mega workaholic and like. Maybe I���d rather balance but still she’s still an overachiever#I feel im becoming more and more like her by the day but still I have some work to do#Need to be more focused & to stop entertaining little boys fr#I just want to move w the unshackling confidence & elegance she seems to emanate effortlessly#I swear that woman was born that way!!!! So unfair for the rest of us mortals#Why does no one talk about the psychological torture that comes w having a naturally gorgeous genius mother#I’m dying over here I just wanna be like her but im pushing that boulder up the hill all the time#Meanwhile she’s always just On#HOW#Just an eldest daughter having a crisis about her mother who is also#The eldest daughter out of her and her two brothers#I need to journal about this I need to meditate#How to manufacture the drive that your mother was simply endowed with at birth#Not even joking I just got off my internship and now im sitting on a swing under the late May sun having a crisis about this

seriously though, can we stop associating redemption with forgiveness? redemption isn't about being forgiven, it's about trying to do better and be better, even if you're not forgiven.
sometimes you make mistakes that people can't forgive and that's okay. the important thing is to remind yourself that you're on the right path, and you're going to be a better person regardless of whether they want to forgive you or not. that's their decision and they're entitled to it.
sometimes people forgive you and sometimes they don't. but you shouldn't stop working towards being better just because someone refused to forgive you. because you shouldn't be trying to fix your mistakes solely because you want that person to forgive you, you should be fixing them because it's the right thing to do.
#talking about fiction mostly but it applies irl too#so many fictional redemption arcs are so hyperfocused on forgiveness#and it just comes off as unfair and unrealistic especially if the character being redeemed is like an abuser or a war criminal#no one is irredeemable but some people are unforgivable#and that's okay!#make your characters unforgivable#redemption arc#writing problems

can i confess something else that will absolutely get me stoned in the town square since im dropping my unpopular opinions. I don’t like altean broadsword Lance. i already disliked red paladin Lance. the broadsword was like rubbing salt in the wound. why couldn’t he have his own niche. why was his character development just making him keith. i understand that it was like “he accepts that he doesn’t have to be a leader and excels as a co-leader and you can find happiness that way yada yada yada”. but you could’ve done that without making him keith. also now give him something unique, cool, that falls in line with his sniper bit. i’m not saying just give him another gun, im saying give him something quiet and lethal. like a garotte. yeah i want garotte lance.
i yap a lot more in my notes by the way if you were interested in other unpopular opinions. don’t send me hate messages or comments i won’t read it and will block viciously i also will not be debating this this is my hill to die on <3
#voltron#if you wanna hate on me uh maybe don’t#i just also think everyone’s writing was lazy except allura’s by the end#i don’t go into RP/BP klance posts and hate on them so don’t come into my space i’m warning you im liberal with the block button#that’s my OPINIOOONNNNNN#voltron legendary defender#moths unpopular opinions#i hate red paladin lance and black paladin keith im not sorry#i also dislike the idea that the black paladin has a designated right hand man (figuratively)#that feels unfair in a way i can’t explain#to me#black paladin is someone that creates harmony in the group#not necessarily is the Ultimate Most Important dude#but the guy that can listen to all the noise and filter it out and come up with reasonable ideas and facilitate discussion#and make well informed snap decisions to guide the team#i don’t think there’s space for a right hand#moth speaks#lance mcclain#and i hate that shiro got side lined because they shot themselves in the foy#foot#anyways having a lion swap betrays the fundamentals of voltron we were introduced to#you can’t introduce a hard magic system and then say no thanks#like oh ok i guess it doesn’t matter if the lion chooses the paladin whatever#which by the way is my biggest issue with season one#i think it was structured badly and having allura designate lions from the get go also betrayed the principle#which you could argue for the lion swap using that argument but lance is really the only one who was without a doubt chosen by his lion#so#no#anyways#thanks for listening to me yap

Okay, the one thing that does bother me is that Mt. Lady is the highest ranked female Pro Hero and not Miruko.
#look she's cool (mt lady) is cool and all BUT COME ON#i feel like miruko should have been higher than her#yes may be coming from bias#and even though mt lady has had been more involved in the story (debuting first)#i feel like it's unfair to miruko who is a hero who moves from place to place constantly no sidekicks#has worked with other heroes with complaining about it#does carry her own weight#don't get me started on the limbs..#people probably find mt lady more 'likeable' in the sense she's always been one for the camera#meanwhile miruko isn't really like that she doesn't come across that way to me#and maybe could something else 👀#but anyways yeah i think miruko could have at least been number 3 or 4#just kiya's thoughts#bnha#mha#boku no hero academia#my hero academia#bnha spoilers#mha spoilers#bnha manga spoilers#bnha 431#mha 431#miruko#mirko#rumi usagiyama#usagiyama rumi

on some level, it's kinda funny that even with all the arguing going on right now about different readings and perspectives on C3, this level of CritRole discourse is RELAXED compared to, like, earlier in the campaign let alone compared to the endless and vicious trenches of the C2 discourses
#remember when people got brigaded for saying “maybe it would be interesting if Laudna didn't come back and that narrative was explored”#and one specific person called a bunch of us “death-obsessed” and “sick in the head” and “had something wrong with you”#including someone who survived a terminal illness? for thinking it might be interesting to explore sudden and unfair death in a story?#and that's not even to remark upon the larger early campaign backlash against people who said that Laudogen simply wasn't doing it for them#good times. good times. (it was not. it was the only time I got called slurs over a fandom discourse.)#tbh like idk I'm not even like feeling like I'm FIGHTING here or upset or anything. this is like going for a brisk walk for enrichment.#Critical Role things

i think theres a conversation to be had about how taash's story explores gender roles and transness in ways that could be seen as reductive but if your take away is "they could've given us a butch lesbian and instead we get THIS" about a canon nonbinary character i simply don't want to hear anything else you have to say about it
#can nb's have anything lmao....................#the problem isn't that taash is nb instead of a butch lesbian#and if you think it is please stay away from me#datv#anyway i think their story could have been handled better with regard to gender but i think some people are being unfair about it too tbqh#yes equating Non Femininity to automatically be nb is a little silly#many women hate wearing dresses and presenting feminine and that doesn't take away their womanhood at all nor does it make them nb#bc gender roles are nonsense#but hear me out .#sometimes when youre nb that IS the first hint you get that something is not aligning somewhere#and thats also valid !!!! just saying!!!!!!!!!#there are many different experiences out there and they don't necessarily negate anyone elses#also futher more yes you can love to wear dresses and be feminine and still nb#like i agreee that they presented it in a quick and surface level way and that comes with its own problems too#but again. AGAIN. this is ONE CHARACTER'S experience. let them have it. and let those of us who relate to them have it too.

i'm not american but the condescending reaction everyone in the rest of the world has to shit like this has got to be so exhausting to endure
#like i'm sure most people living in the usa know it's shit. they don't need you smugly telling them that#especially coming from countries with their own far right surges like.... look within first#idk maybe i'm just too on my period it just seems unfair to laugh at them for living in a horrible situation like that#i was talking to one of the american women in work and she was like 'i don't want to talk to non americans about this today'#because they're all too condescending like fair enough girl!

rip ethoslab you would have loved dti lana lore 😭🙏
#i just think the way u have to figure everything out on ur own and really go searching for the answers would appeal to him#like the way he's always saying he doesn't do like tutorials he likes to find things out through gameplay#plus also it's So fun imagining him playing dti#i think he would be so annoyed at the unfair voting and every time an “i joined late” player wins#“oh come onnn guys” he whines at his computer as he gets tenth place for the fifth time in a row#joel is watching very amused knowing that he voted etho one star just to get this reaction#oh god i want to make a fic now#the voices are getting louder#stay in the box NO#nya talks#hermitblr#trafficblr#ethoslab#etho#dti

I imagine a lot of Hawke's birthdays played out something like this. It's not fair, having a father who is a mage, and he won't even fulfill your one wish of being turned into a dragon :( Every year the anniversary rolls around I'm left absolutely baffled by how I've managed to keep this up all these years. Thank you for staying with me, for joining along the way, for your support, and for the laughs we've had!
If you want to support me, or just want to see more stuff that I do, there’s Patreon and society6. Or just reblog, comment and tag it with something fun, that helps too.
#champions and heroes#Dragon Age 2#malcolm hawke#Hawke#d#Leandra Hawke#12th anniversary#it's baffling tbh#it doesn't feel like 12 years#and no one has turned me into a dragon yet either#which is also super unfair#come on Malcolm#get on it

love the idea of no superheroes knowing batman's identity but still all knowing alfred. they've all seen him, all know he's bruce wayne's butler. he refuses a codename and a mask. but nobody puts the pieces together because they all know enough of brucie wayne to never believe he's batman. they also think brucie has no idea that his butler is secretly batman's boss. so funny to me.
#they also think brucie has no idea that his kids are vigilantes#because obviously alfred recruited the batkids and tricked bruce into adopting them to give them a cover#they kinda feel bad for brucie but he seems happy enough#and what he doesn't know can't hurt him#one time someone tries to talk to batman about how it's kind of unfair to bruce#and batman goes off about how much he hates brucie and that he deserves to be tricked#there's a rant about billionaires that sounds like it comes straight from oliver#bruce wayne#batman#alfred pennyworth

You've got to be effing joking
#the way martin's talking about this is almost like he's certain come 2026 max will go to merc and kick out george#Nico at least said some sense and said George is one of the best qualifiers out there and Kimi will find it hard to beat him#what is this#this is most unfair on Kimi most of all#also they misquoted nico on that he's just saying George has to show he can soundly beat Kimi (when asked about what is expected)#f1#kimi antonelli#george russell#mercedes#sky sports f1#my post#martin brundle#nico rosberg#italian gp 2024#monza 2024

Some of the takes in the notes on that T S G-related post are wild. I am going to have some Things To Say this spring.
#random personal stuff#my calling in life apparently is to tackle the absurd number of misconceptions about this one particular book#and it looks like this year's Issue will be:#no this is not a book about Those Dumb Victorians thinking sunshine is a miracle cure for any and all unspecified illnesses#(they're not even Victorian they're Edwardian!)#because Colin does not in fact have an actual physical illness. and that's the whole point.#I'm too tired to elaborate but anyway: full discussion coming to you in a few months#I am begging this site at large to be normal about history and set aside those stereotypes and assumptions about certain eras#I get the sense that somehow the Victorian Era is becoming a sort of 'Dark Ages' for some people#(as in 'everything was miserable and horrible and everyone was foolish and ignorant')#which is just as inaccurate and unfair a portrayal for then as for the Middle Ages
