Unpopular opinion: I actually really like Boromir. He's one of my favorites. I love the complexity of his character and how his worst enemy is himself. I also love him because I went into his character organically hating him and left his character organically loving him. That happens for only a few characters and they all end up being some of the most beloved for me

“Poor Boromir! I could not see what happened to him. It was a trial for such a man: a warrior, and a lord of men. Galadriel told me that he was in peril. But he escaped in the end. I am glad. It was not in vain that the young hobbits came with us, if only for Boromir’s sake.”

ive been watching downton abbey with my roommate 🤡

People said the queer coded villain was tired but I ask my fellow friends, romans and countrymen to remember Thomas Barrow. No man has ever nor can they ever serve that much evil cunt swag and all for a show whose median age demographic would probably be in the 60 range. Nobody has ever or will do it like him.

i always feel like a gay little freak when i talk abt downton abbey irl to like. old women. they’re always like “oh…you’re favorite is thomas? the gay evil footman…?” YES THE CUNTY GAY EVIL FOOTMAN. god why is that so hard to understand.

tw: brief mentions of miscarriage and suicide attempt

the dichotomy of the level of stakes in each episode of Downton Abbey will always be funny to me. Some episodes are like

“Thomas is on the brink of being fired for being gay”

“it’s the actual World War I”

“Sybil could very well die in childbirth”

“Bates has been arrested for a murder he didn’t commit”

“one of the staff caused a MISCARRIAGE of someone from Upstairs”

“Thomas has been found half dead in a self-inflicted bloody bathtub”

And then other episodes are like

“Will Carson let the staff go to the town fair”

“who will win the flower competition”

“The cooks dropped the chicken on the floor”

“Sybil is wearing pants”

“Branson is still fraternizing with the Downstairs”

Women can be evil if they’re funny about it and men can be evil if they’re gay about it.

when usually well-groomed male characters are in emotional distress and their hair is hanging about their face bc the product has come out <3

[much-brighter-ink]

My favorite part of Downton is actually when Thomas's job is almost over after O'Brien outs him and Robert is like "I explored many men's bodies back in my day at Eton... anyways CRICKET. WE MUST HAVE CRICKET" and it's never mentioned again

[kaaaaamii]

Thomas Barrow:

it just reminded me so much of him

[kidcataldo]

Thinking how future historians in the downton abbey universe will wonder if the crawleys were actually murderers, bc there’s just an excessive amount of deaths on record to make any of it look innocent

And like an entire subreddit would exist to prove lord grantham was some type of mob boss in the aristocracy, who killed anyone who wronged his family. The descendants of the granthams are constantly in the media trying to disprove these theories, like “no great grandad was just a guy… we think” but they don’t really have any solid evidence to disprove any claims bc the family took those secrets to the their graves

It’s so bad that people wholeheartedly believe he was the one who sunk the titanic and caused World War I

you know, at this point I’m just asking one thing of the new downton movie, and that is to see Thomas be a rich gay in America and have him throwing gatsby-like parties and just be a bitch to everyone because he can and because he deserves to be a little (a lot) mean about finally getting a good life

special points if he manages to give Carson a heart attack

sport scholarships were invented when Lord Grantham suddenly accepted Thomas Barrow's homosexuality as soon as he realised he was decent at cricket
