I’m sorry Jake stans but I seriously can’t stand this twink like I’ve never felt this much seething rage at a character and I’ve watched an episode with Ronaldo from Steven Universe
Tom's line about Shiv being selfish and "find[ing] it very hard to think about me" is actually so telling because while it's absolutely true that she rarely takes his position into consideration, Tom never once thinks about what he can do to help Shiv unless it also benefits him.
Every single time he makes a move or sacrifice that might help her, it's always something that he thinks will give him a leg up. He volunteers to take the fall for cruises, not for Shiv, who is in no way implicated, or even for Waystar, but because he thinks it'll ingratiate him to Logan, and the second it seems like he might have to actually follow through on that, he immediately tries to get out of it and even throws Shiv under the bus. Meanwhile, for all that Shiv disregards his interests, there are a number of things she does that only help him, and she's the one who actually sacrifices something and undermines her position with Logan to beg him not to let Tom go to jail.
It just makes it so clear that no matter how much he might love her (and I think he does, in his own compromised way), for him their relationship was always built on the underlying assumption that it's her job to prop him up, but it's not his job to help her.
does adult mav canonically have pre braces TC teeth or did sometime during the early 00s maverick mitchell wear adult braces
some thoughts
1. my knee-jerk reaction was characters are not their actors so who cares let mav’s teeth be whatever you want
2. But engaging w/ this honestly i see a couple possibilities
3. possibility A is that yes mav has fucked crazy bigass teeth (see my post on ice calling him ��Peter rabbit” for more on this)
4. possibility B is that part of trying to reinvent himself during their brief divorce era (post pulling rooster’s papers ca. 2002-2005) was getting adult braces and the like 4 times ice saw him during that period he was just so bewildered he didn’t think to comment on it at all
5. (can navy fighter pilots have braces?? i feel like it would immediately obviate any call sign you had and everyone regardless of rank would immediately start calling you “brace face” and that’s what they’d stencil on the side of your f-18 or w/e… Pete “brace face” Mitchell! honor is everything im not sure mav would tolerate that! you lose a LOT of social capital when you have braces as an adult unless you’re actually tom cruise! which mav is not!)
6. Possibility C mav got invisalign circa 2015 when it really started getting popular and had his retainers in during the TGM mission cause why not. that’s funny. you cannot lose a SINGLE day with Invisalign or it sets you back so much. even if you have a suicidal navy mission to drop bombs on a sovereign country ... still gotta wear your Invisalign dumbass
NEVER STOP!!! everytime I get mad over DOTC I just come onto your page and read your Gray Wing slander and immediately feel better, thanks muchly! 😌✨️
I am but a humble DOTC Slander ranger, riding across the sunlit horizon with a big iron on my hip, putting every hater's formless frustration into the words you felt but did not realize how to say ✨️
In honor of homeward bound almost finishing (which btw im definitely gonna cry when that happens) i decided to draw as much fanart as i could for it while i listen to it in text to speech. For @thompsborn thank you so much for writing this amazing masterpiece ily like actually
based on this excerpt
also i now realize that maybe college people dont wear backpacks or maybe they do idk hopefully they do because its too late to change the pose 😥 okay im gonna yap in the tags cause its gonna be too long of a post
bro now it’s actually pizsing me off the hate this poor young woman is getting for playing Juliet in some random play in London like not even a Hollywood movie but a random play 😭😭
Don't take offence, but you are very negative as a Tom fan. If you even are that. His wins or losses don't really affect anyone but himself. All these anons and you are losing your mind over a rumor.
A rumor online that isn't a reflection too the love he gets in real life on any socials that isn't twitter.
You are worse than Antis. You hate everything he does like hes an athlete on pitch. We are just lucky to consume his art and maybe travel to see his show, and that's it. It's deranged. You hate marvel, tomdayas but claim that you being a solo fan means anything other than going in fake stan wars to the voices in your head. There a plenty of white male actors who have the career you tumblr fans claim he needs. Go follow them and save the paragraphs for the drafts.
Club Chalamet has her disciplines lol.
I love the play, I love TCR, even Cherry, and I'm even open to the idea of him possibly doing that book adaptation, just to give you a few examples. You're just heated because I have a different opinion than you, and every time I say something you don't like, it's like you've been waiting in the shadows to come to my inbox and twist my own words against me. Except, I know exactly what I said and exactly what I meant. This ask and the other you mentioned Spider-Man 4, your attempt to gaslight me is not going to make me explain myself over and over when I already made myself very clear. Where are you when I'm posting 'positive things'? Nowhere to be found because you don't fucking care, 😂.
Why Ally leaving Jake in the bear cave is a dumb reason to hate her:
“She left Jake to die she left Jake to die.” Yeah, she did, but we can’t hate her for that. It’s weird that some people use that as a point, even??? And here’s my one and only reason why:
WHAT WAS HOMEGIRL SUPPOSED TO DO??????? FIGHT THE BEAR??? RUN OVER AND DRAG HIM AWAY??? THE THING WAS CHASING HIM… SHE WOULD’VE ALSO GOTTEN MAULEDDDDD
Is this what we thought she was gonna do???:
Everyone dogs on my sister for leaving Jake behind, but what would you have done?
What would you have done…
Cuz I know I would’ve RAN and unless you can fight a bear, you would’ve too… So don’t diss my sister for the wrong reasons, cuz we all would’ve done what she did let’s be realistic.
SIDE NOTE: Who woke the bear up? Who? THE TWINK. And Ally was supposed to save this man?????? If he didn’t snap, nobody would’ve needed to be saving nobody… Why should Ally ALSO get mauled because Jake wanted to argue and woke the damn thing up😭😭😭
im guessing no mangy devil chihuahuas or rescues (compacflt can't be seen with anything but a purebreed) golden retriever might be too on the nose, how about a malinois or a german shepherd maybe an english bulldog (ugly)
idk. i don’t really have a dog in this fight (i don’t care) (pun intended). but it definitely would have to be like a Real Dog. yeah nothing smaller than 70 lbs. a Real Dog. other than that i don’t have any opinions. could be a mutt or a rescue! but it would have to be, you know, handsome and upstanding and like, a Real Dog that you can, like, do stuff with. it is very cliche and on the nose and maybe im only saying this bc i, like, don’t care at all about dogs but ice does seem like the white lab/golden retriever guy and mav strikes me as a german shepherd guy. there are many reasons i don’t think they would ever have a dog (what would they do with the dog?) but not being able to agree on the breed might be one reason they never get a dog. arguing and bickering etc
hoping tom and wade quit the police force after learning about project shadow
yeahhh me too. im honestly kinda worried about how theyll handle the stuff with cops in the third movie if it does turn out to have a similar plot to sa2 since sa2 probably has the most anti military and anti cop story of the whole series. the movies already have the anti military part down but also one of the main protagonists whos a really important person in sonics life and is supposed to be a good guy is a cop. so hopefully you can understand why im a bit concerned about how certain themes in sa2s story will be handled. again assuming that sa2 is even going to be the main inspiration for the next movie we still dont know for sure
in the first movie toms arc was realizing he doesnt need to be a big city cop to help people so im hoping they will complete that with him realizing he doesnt wanna be a cop at all after seeing how awful they really are and not wanting to be a part of that
