If iwtv s3 doesn’t open with Lestat doing a genius lyric breakdown video or wired autocomplete interview mimicking s1 opening with the Daniel Molloy ad,,,, that’s a missed opportunity
#rolin jones take NOTES#I want to see some somber ass pretentious ass lyrics being sung by Sam Reid to no music only to have him go#‘uh yeah this part is self explanatory’ or go off on a huge tangent that gets abruptly cut half way through in the edit#imagine Lestat flinging those little foam boards after answering ‘Who is—XYZSongTitle—by TVL about?’ for the 6th time and it’s just Louis#iwtv#interview with the vampire#loustat#the vampire lestat#lestat de lioncourt

Thinking about how Suzanne Collins writes romance in The Hunger Games along the lines of the soulmate myth where two halves of a whole complete one another
#and thg is very inspired by greek mythology so the soulmate myth was very likely incorporated on purpose#the concept of needing someone to be yourself#annie and finnick always being described as one being especially gets to me#like thats just platos concepts verbatim#also another tangent but hunger games explores the different types of love like agape or eros all of which were coined by plato#its all really done well because at the end of the day miss collins penned love is necessary and it shows throughout the entire story#love that everlark not only represents choice between war/peace but also your other half that makes up for what you lack#the hunger games#thg#katniss everdeen#peeta mellark#everlark#finnick odair#annie cresta#odesta#greek mythology

Here's a reminder that Frank does not have adhd or dyslexia like most demigods, so he was stuck on the Argo II with at least five to six other teenagers with adhd at all times. I wonder what that was like for him...
#5-6 bc it was the rest of the 7 and then nico after percy and annabeth fell into tartarus#and nico def has adhd one look at his chaotic thoughts in his pov chapters confirms this#also think about his behavior as a kid. 100% he has adhd#so frank stuck on a ship full of adhd kids for like a month and a half to two months#i wonder what that was like lol#i mentioned this to my sis (who doesnt have adhd) and she said it was prob vary chaotic#she has a lot of friends with adhd and i have it too so she has experience being in franks shoes lol#i wonder how many conversations he just got lost in cause they kept going on tangents or smth#it must have been an experience for him#riordanverse#rick riordan#frank zhang#argo 2 crew#heros of olympus#pjo hoo toa#pjo verse

No clue on ur policy on cursing but if you do not like it pls delete this ask and I’m sorry I cursed but the concept was so funny.
Batfam au where Damian accidentally ends in the past (by himself or if any of his siblings join is optional) and needs to quickly stop himself before calling Bruce, Father.
So on a slip up, he accidentally calls him Fuckboy instead, and has to continually use it.
I see this going one of two ways depending on how old Bruce is - if it's teenage angsty Bruce then there will be a fight which will result in Bruce getting his ass kicked bc teenage Bruce was just constantly looking for a fight but couldn't hope to win against Damian - if its Bruce post training/ early batman Bruce then he will recognise that Damian looks a mini talia and realise this kid is his son or maybe a younger sibling of talias either way calling him a fuckboy is definitely deserved
#ask#anon#im tickled that you think id be offended by swearing#its very nice and considerate of you#but does now just make me wonder#if theres people on this website with their swearing preferences in their bio#“like swears are okay but if i see one of you fucking cunts use the lords name in vain your getting blocked on sight”#...wait is god a swear#i was listening to songs in the background on youtube the other day#just letting the algorithm choose the next one#and i noticed one of the songs was like jumping weirdly#so i click onto it#and someone had uploaded a clean version of the song on youtube#which had taken out all the uses of “god” too#which was half the song lol#anyway this was a weird tangent#opps

You know, throwing this out there completely randomly, we really don't talk enough about Zhao from Avatar. Like his story is absolutely wild. Man was trained by Jeong Jeong, freaking found Wan Shi Tong's library, found out about the solar eclipse from the library, burned a section of the library down, escaped from that alive, captured the avatar, successfully breached the walls of the Northern Water Tribe which had never been done, and killed the freaking moon spirit. Like he is a bastard and regularly loses to teenagers, but you can't deny it's quite the resume.
#can see why he made admiral#ozai could never#very much not defending anything he's done#not my poor little meow meow#but you do have to acknowledge what kind of driven unhinged person could do even half of what he did#ATLA#weird tangent#was thing about the day of the black sun today#zhao#also quite frankly he's lucky to have lived as long as he did#assuming he's dead in fog#man had zero self preservation instincts when it came to powerful spirits

overall a very weird dw season to me. i really like the middle 4 episodes, and thought the first 2 and last 2 were okay-to-bad. for only 8 episodes 50/50 isn't a bad track record but i think the season arc and character drama doesn't land so the season is less than the sum of its parts. much better than chibnall era, still not on the level of s1-10 dw and probably my least favourite rtd series. and yet i have hope!! bring on season 2 i want to see varada sethu
#blahs#dw#in terms of rtd seasons i think s1 and s4 blow this out of the water spectacularly#series 3 has a similar ratio of episodes to me in that i remember liking about half of it and not really liking the other half#but the highs were higher for me and as flawed as the tenmartha conflict might've been at least it like. existed lol#martha felt more defined than ruby as a character and had a more interesting push and pull with ten#so i think it came together a bit more?? though last of the time lords is my other least favourite rtd finale#and s2 i don't love either but i think it's consistently decent and sometimes great and again just does character better#even though imo tenrose largely rides the coattails of ninerose it still builds to a solid tragic conclusion based on their bond#like e.g. sarah jane as classic companion is deployed with much more precision than mel in this season#in terms of how she contributes to the character/story arc happening with tenrose about inevitable separation/abandonment#ANYWAY this is a massive tangent my point is i miss the character drama :( as i have been saying for the last 2 months :(

solas is bisexual in our heart. ive heard they went one gender romance route bc of time + avoiding a "bisexual villain" trope (only heard though) (istg everything about inquisition is "running out of resources")
i hc that he had male lovers in the past because. vibes. can't help it
the bisexual villain trope excuse will haunt me until the day i die because what is that. i'm assuming they meant queer villain which is fair enough for 2014 because i know they didn't want people writing essays comparing solas to gay disney villains or w/e, but at the same time if there are multiple queer characters in your story it's literally fine. the hypersexual bisexual trope is far more common and noticeable . and yet bull is there!
#it was definitely due to a lack of resources tbh which is fine i get it.......#but tbh if you cant implement it fully dont do it at all and use the resources youd use half doing something to improve#on the other things you were only half implementing!#i still think dai would be 10% better without solas romance#sorry that was a tangent. this game is eating away at my soul#ask#anonymous

Hi, I remember that a few years back you've stated that you oppose the BDS movement and said it "doesn't give a shit about Palestinians" but as of late your stance seems to have changed. Can you explain what made you change your opinion on BDS?
Exposure. I grew up being propagandized daily in Zionist schools and I didn’t shed that in one swoop. I was grossly misinformed on the nature of BDS, how it began, and the actual goals of it. Actually talking to Palestinians (both online and in person) and generally becoming more aware of history and geopolitics essentially made me realize I was playing the mark and needed to challenge whatever notions I had in my head more throughly and critically. Frankly I don’t even remember what my argument against BDS even was, and it was probably baseless ignorant drivel that I wouldn’t back up today.
#also as a general heads up to people who have not followed me long#my old takes and opinions are worth very little to me#my lack of effective medication used to result in going on long half intelligible tangents#combined with this blog originating back when I was like an orthodox school kid with socdem sensibilities#I also used to be much more prone to bickering and pointless nitpicking#but yeah generally I do not stand by almost anything I said before becoming an adult and leaving my cult community

Everytime I read or listen a Grant Showbiz intervew he's like trying to say Moz was madly in love with Johnny and that there was something else going on, but without saying the actual words lmao
right?? lmao one of the most interesting things he said imo is when he talked abt feeling "physically threatened" by morrissey when the band was recording those cilla black & elvis covers, right before they split up... bc morrissey had apparently been drinking (which i mean... THAT was quite ooc, i wonder what led him to do that... 👀) & he was acting erratically... showbiz also kept the recording for that Elvis cover (A Fool Such As I) for a while, even tho part of the song was allegedly wiped by the sound engineer & therefore would've been unusable, but THEN he ended up giving those tapes to johnny "for safekeeping" & bc it was "the right thing to do", which like... sure, but if the song was deemed unusable anyway, why not just getting rid of it? why hold on to the tapes? but according to a recent BBC interview, johnny still has those tapes, even tho he hasn't listened to them in a long time & it's apparently the only Smiths' song that's yet to be released... interestingly enough, he said he doesn't plan on ever releasing that bc it reminds him of a bad time & he "doesn't want to put that out into the world"... (no mention of the song having been partially wiped tho... 👀) which leaves me wondering... was that song really the problem? was morrissey's rendition really THAT bad? or was there other stuff that ended up on tape while they were recording? stuff that had to do w/morrissey's erratic behavior & that they don't want anyone else to hear bc it would reflect badly on them, possibly painting a picture that would affect the band's legacy & that would make ppl see johnny & morrissey's relationship in a different, potentially more intimate way? 👀 i mean, at one point the song literally says: "you taught me how to love & now you say we're through"... are we really meant to think nothing of that, given everything else we know? 👀

The Situation tm in my dnd party right now:
Characters 1 and 2: actually getting shit done, has figured out plot important things and is making sure no one gets killed
Character 3: really sad angsty backstory shit
Character 4: aggressively trying to flirt his way into a minor villain’s polycule(is succeeding)
#Also said minor villain is the brother of one of the characters who’s actually trying to get shit done so that’s fun#During this session people’s wifi was cutting out every 10 minutes and we spent half the session going on random tangents#But it was still one of the most lore heavy sessions we’ve had yet#the dnd tag#rambling

LEGO Elves Cameos In LEGO Friends
The most obvious case of crossover would be an update made to the app game Heartlake Rush. In the update Emily was added along with Rowan, Cyclo, Eagle!Lumia, and an Elvendale themed minigame.
(I downloaded the game recently because for some reason I thought this was a permanent addition and not, like, an event. Imagine my disappointment.)
youtube
I've only watched Friends up to episode 7 of the 3D show from 2012, so we're still pre-dating Elves by a fair bit. If I see anything in future episodes I'll update on that, but for now the show hasn't given anything other than shared character names.
Getting away from in-universe crossovers, some of the recent Friends sets have had nods to Elves, most notably the posters in Andrea's Theater School. One poster features an oddly colored Noctura. Another features an Emily-like silhouette with a red and gold amulet.
Aliya's dog is named Aira. She frequently has books depicting elven characters. And her room has a movie with a Pegasus in front of a castle, which could be a reference if we take enough yoga classes.
#lego elves#secrets of elvendale#lego friends#lego friends the next chapter#ya girl went on a tangent in that crossover ask before realizing it was about headcanons and not canon canon#what am i supposed to do?#completely delete this half of the post??#absolutely not!!!#Youtube
