I am not immune to best friends who are in love with each other

i love that sophie spends so much of early leverage trying to act kind of impressive or cool or mysterious or powerful, even to the team - BUT the leverage team all know she’s a dork. they’ve known since day one when they first saw her, giving her very awful theater performance, and they really, really don’t care. they love their weird dramatic theater geek grifter friend. she tries to be all cool & mysterious and they’re just like "that’s great soph, but we’ll be hanging out at nate’s apartment the HQ watching a movie when ur done with that".

i think franco did a wonderful job today !! he absolutely killed it and he should be proud of himself . i'm genuinely really glad to see that he's being treated well by williams and is getting the support a driver needs and deserves in this sport .

i also think what should be remembered is that logan didn't get to drive the same car franco is driving right now . and on top of that , jv's "support" of logan this year has been incredible fake and killed logan's confidence . he quite honestly didn't have a proper support system within that team .

franco is driving the williams car with all the upgrades , the same one alex has . logan was forced to drive a car with parts from 2023 . both the front wing and rear wing were from 2023 . a car that was overweight by 15 kilos (33 lbs) . a car that was already bad and only was made worse by the fact that it didn't have the same upgrades as alex did . a car that was absolutely impossible to drive and constantly had problems -- remember how often logan's steering wheel was messed up ??

logan's possibilities of an amazing performance were overshadowed by a car that would get upgrades only to have them promptly taken away . they were overshadowed by the fact that no one -- not even the goddamn commentators , whose JOB is to do the research that we are doing -- could properly do their research on what kind of a tractor logan was driving . everyone was under the immediate impression that logan had the same car as alex when that was the furthest thing from the truth .

and now franco is driving a car that is , indeed , finally equal to alex's car . a car that finally has all the upgrades . of course it's amazing that he's matching alex's pace and i am genuinely so happy for him for that ! but it should also be remembered that he's driving a car that is leagues better from what logan had to drive .

the way that everyone is automatically turning around to talk bad about logan and say "look !! look !! this guy is doing better than logan ever could do !! see !! logan does suck !!" is unfair to logan and shows a lack of proper research . it's truly gobsmacking to see how everyone jumps on the logan hate train and yet they refuse to do any substantial research to understand that logan was driving in a car that no driver could possibly succeed in .

i truly do hope that people realize in the future , specifically the near future , that logan was not treated properly this year . that people realize how logan was constantly given a shit hand and told to make something out of it when that was impossible considering the state the car -- and the team , i mean look at how they messed up with alex today ??? -- was in .

like don't even get me started on how williams messed up with alex today . that was just embarrassing on the team's end . absolutely insane what these drivers have to deal with .

I'm once again asking for part of the fandom to stop Runaan's uwufication

Ezran has all the rights to be pissed, he killed his father. Ezran is a 12 y.o who's going way too much at such a young age in a short period of time.

Rayla loves her father and Callum loves Rayla and knows how terrible losing a parent is (he lost three), that's why he was okay with freeing him, but Ezran has a total different relationship with Rayla and different views from Callum, on top of that, he just lost his kindgom.

Runaan is a grown ass man who killed Ezran's dad and trained his empath daughter to be an assassin, trying to kill her later when she opposed him. He's not a "uwu gay bean" he's an adult with terrible life choices and Ezran arresting him is a total valid response.

“Connor is the worst assassin” Connor is the truest assassin, who fought and nearly died for people who he wanted to protect and also who couldn’t fight for their freedom. And in the end he returned to his village gone. The people he fought for, his home, taken away by people he trusted.

I mean sure he had the homestead and the assassins but he would not have left his village if he didn’t know their safety was at risk, and he lost them anyway. Say what you will of him but he is a good man who continued to fight even after losing everyone he cared for—his mother, his mentor, his best friend, his father. He may not show it easily and has a brutal combat style, but he is loving, kind, and gentle. He only wants what is best— he does what is right, no more, no less. I love you Ratonhnhaké:ton ☹️ I love you so much it hurts.

Sam did not study and try to be like his big brother since he was FOUR YEARS OLD just for some people on twitter to say that “no one in Deans life really knows him except for Cas”. EXCUSE ME. Did we not all watch the same show?? Sam is LITERALLY Deans entire world, no one compares to Sam in his eyes. To say that Sam doesn’t know Dean is saying that you actively don’t pay attention to anything in this show and that’s crazzyy. There’s 15 season of this shit. Sam knew that Dean wanted a fucking slinky without even vocalizing it to him. THAT is how much he knows him and pays attention to him.

I'm seeing a lot of Spite isn't actually a demon theories

But he definitely is, he was a spirit of Determination and his time in the Ossuary corrupted him into a demon of Spite, not even Emmrich argues his malevolent nature and the Mourn Watch do not use the term demon, only spirit

Now if you were to say that Lucanis, and to a lesser degree Emmrich and Rook, showed him a better path for spite, a "good" way to express spite and Spite changed into a spirit of Spite - THAT would make sense

We are told again and again in the Ossuary to stop thinking of spirits and demons in the simple ways we've been taught, that's there far greater shades of each that have never been explored

It's time we really explored how fluid the nature of spirits actually is, we've been told for so long it's two sides of the same coin

But spirits are clearly far more complicated

I can’t take criticism on Mel seriously because most of it is done by jayviks who say she’s pretty and call it a day then act like they love her😭. Like sorry, I’m not taking you seriously when your account is filled with only jayvik and you only talk about Mel to objectify her and seem like you don’t hate “the female character that gets in the way” that’s simply not enough. A lot of these hardcore “Mel is a manipulator” people are very obviously biased lmfao. “Jayce dumped her” except that never happened? They talked and then he left and fucking died lol, one important thing to remember is that these are CHARACTERS and there is writing behind them. What I’m saying is that they were handled poorly by the writers and they never actually “broke up” or should I say he never “dumped her🤓” they just.. had a thoughtful conversation and it was never brought up again. I feel like yall only say he “dumped her” so it fits the shitty narrative that Jayce dumped Mel for Viktor which is NOT true and literally never will be. You guys literally call her an “independent black woman who doesn’t need a man” except in different wording to make her seem unlovable. Yes, she doesn’t need a man but she WANTS a man. Stop acting like you actually want her to be independent, you just want to get her out of the way but also still seem like you’re an “”ally””.

I've been seeing some discussion about Overwatch's new characters and Kiriko on Twitter following the MHA crossover event and, as someone who's not totally in the loop of OW lore anymore, what does Kiriko... do. Like, what does she contribute to the story of Overwatch and Talon and the Omnic Crisis, how is she involved. I know she trained with the Shimada brothers when she was a wee embryo, but what's her connection to... Overwatch. Girl, what are you doing here.

One of the MANY reasons that paramount/Star trek probably won’t give out another fully fledged 7 season Star Trek series with 25ish episodes per season is because of how much the CGI would cost. Back in ye olde times when they were making TNG and others, they would just paint the planets out and use that as a background. But shows don’t really do that anymore, and to have it to the standards of other shows today, they would have to do pretty much everything using at least some special effects.

But the thing is, I would be absolutely fine if they just started painting on planets again? I’d be absolutely fine if they just started slapping glue again to people’s faces for different species? (all this stuff is pretty much the essence of Star Trek)

Like, I would rather have a brilliant, new, well thought out Star Trek show with terrible to no effects than 10 episodes of just boring but amazing looking CGI. Let the people have glue on their faces!!! And I know in the end to compete with other shows to bring in new viewers they are going to keep on giving out 5 episode series and movies with brilliant effects, but in the end, it’ll just ruin the franchise entirely, and it’ll eventually be destroyed and discarded, or just forced to keep on pushing out movies and reboots that nobody asked for. :(

(Note: you could also apply this to pretty much any franchise right now. 🫠)
