#the power of fear is mine

[hundehelm]

i have an indeterminate amount of time that could be between 8am and 6pm tomorrow to clean my 3br house, do repairs, and temporarily evict my excess cats and one extra person. i am doing arts and crafts type shit to the hole in the ceiling. i am spraying chemicals. my boyfriend is pacing and baking bread. he is really stressed and not enriched at all due to the cost of living these days. he hates the pellets.

"I have many fears, most of them about Lucrezia." — Cesare Borgia (The Borgias, 2011-2013) + hints of insecurity

that she adores someone that much / if she will reject his dark nature and act of love and violence as Ursula did / if he truly is not part of her desires / that she easily forgets him

// (The Magnus Archives SPOILERS!!)

Dual Pull of Fears on Avatars

something notable about The Magnus Archives, which I think is under discussed, is that almost (if not) all Avatars turned to their Dread Power to avoid another Fear Entity.

John is marked by the Web and turns to the Eye to feel control, Jonah fears his End above all and turns to the Eye to learn the secrets of immortality, Mike Crew had his youth affected by the Spiral and welcomed the Vast as a reprieve to freedom, Jane feels Lonely and joins the Corruption's swarming hive, etc etc etc.

Every character is bound to (at least) two Fear Entities, I believe - one they reject, and one they embrace. One that hunts them, & one they seek. This is REALLY neglected by the fandom when the questions of "what Avatar would you be?" and "which Entity do you fear most?" are, mistakenly, conflated as the same thing.

(I don't remember if attention is ever explicitly drawn to this in Q&As or the show itself, but it's very key to understanding the greater picture of TMA, imo)

man the thing about beauty standards and being ugly and being pretty and being insecure is that ultimately you do just kinda have to Decide that youre pretty. like ultimately thats how you become pretty, or hot, or sexy. you have to just Decide that you Are. you have to recognize that its made up, its arbitrary, its subjective, and that people might disagree with you about it, and as much as you are able, you need to completely and utterly disregard their opinions on your appearance, and decide that youre pretty now. and THEN.

you need to find beauty in "ugly". you need to recognize that ugly is made up, that its arbitrary, that its subjective, and you need to be able to find the beauty in it all. and this means you cant bodyshame people. you cant body shame shitty celebs or politicians. you need to base your criticisms on the substance of their character and misdeeds and unhinged horrific opinions and not give a shit about what they look like. you cant go calling people ugly for being shitty. you cant go calling people ugly for looking A Way You Dont Like.

and then if you wanna really galaxy brain this shit you start using ugly as endearment. OBVIOUSLY do not fucking call other human beings ugly. that shit is far too loaded, its just Rude. Dont call specific features of people or even characters ugly cos thats also too loaded. as a term it has baggage. but you can see the ugly in tacky, loud, garish clothing, and it can be Good. you can see the ugly in a distinctive, horrible tiny car from the 90s, and it can be good. you can see the ugly in animals that have evolved to look the way they do, without a single thought of what humans find appealing. you can see the beauty and the freedom in "Ugliness". you can break out of this shit altogether and feel nothing but disdain for anyone who stoops to insulting your appearance if they disagree with you about shit. you can get completely out of the cave of these beauty standards. you can find it so freeing to revel.in letting yourself be ugly. in recognizing that the way you look and exist might be ugly to some people, and youre out of the cave enough to simply recognize. thats just your opinion and it doesnt matter. didnt ask.

you can look at ppl arguing about the correct amount of skincare products to use daily, the Correct Amount of makeup, and whether or not its radical to conform to beauty standards or defy them and argue about is it really conforming if visible makeup pisses men off, and you can say, well I dont care about any of that, I recognize the societal pressures of flawless skin and all that but you see,

I just want to look like a silly little clown :o3

It’s so hilarious President Snow, in order to avoid suspicion that he was the one poisoning his political opponents, would eat the same food and be like, “see I’m not dying, couldn’t be poison or me teehee 😊” but since he was, you know, ingesting poison, it’s impacting his health to the point he very obviously smells likes blood and death.

Capitol citizens: wow President, all your enemies keep dying from poison like symptoms… any thoughts on the matter?

Snow: probably poor constitutions, in the picture of health *coughs up blood*
