Like, obviously The Sea of Monsters is going to be great on screen. Obviously. Grover in a wedding dress, Percy as a guinea pig, Clarisse character growth, the chariot races, Annabeth facing the sirens, we've got a full-on Odyssey and it's fantastic. I don't want to wish away all the good things coming! Season 2 is going to be so much fun.

But. BUT. Season 3, man. The Titan's Curse. Thalia. Zoe Nightshade. THE DI ANGELOS. Holy shit, season 3 is going to be excellent.

THEY WERE GONNA GO TO BRAZIL AND DO SCIENCE TOGETHER, WHY

For Izzy to die for Ed and/or Stede in the finale, it would spit in the face of the entire character arc he's had this season of discovering himself outside of that relationship

And I fully believe they're better writers than that, especially after being told how much these queer stories mean to the fans. They wouldn't let him grow so much only to pull a "burry the gay for his tragic unrequited love."

It's going to be okay

On one hand, I feel horribly guilty for having a couple weekends where I've committed to absolutely nothing to the point of backing out of volunteering at a local dog show.

On the other hand, I have dog sport events literally every weekend and practice or class at least twice a week throughout the entirety of October and November. I think I get a free pass for a couple weekends.

Had a vision this morning, tried a new perspective :]

Suggestive drawing of Ori under the cut

Those tela-novelas sure are interesting to watch when you have company, eh?

That is all

Have nice day :]

Good news I guess: they cancelled the live action Loud House show.

by far the most interesting part of LMK s4 (to me) is, well, them finally addressing the aggressively positive attitude MK has had about sun wukong the entire show. the entire series has emphasized this heroic narrative and almost entirely sidelined the circumstances that got him on the jttw,,, all his (delightful) shittiness has been intentionally obscured, and s4 completely reframes it as MK himself being uncomfortable with the fact that the Monkey King has this dual legacy of being a great hero celebrated for his role in the story and, you know, everything else about him as the trickster monkey archetype.

he reads perfectly as the kind of kid who idolized someone from a young age and has had to fend off accusations of them being ‘bad, actually’ in the past and now finds himself walking in those exact footsteps with suspicious ease, and now it’s been implied to his face that it’s because he’s going in reverse. whuf

Aang being a shitty dad is fine, but it's the way tlok makes Aang a shitty I have a problem with. You're telling me a guy who's entire culture was whipped out and whole family was massacred wasn't overjoyed at the possibility of sharing his culture with his entire family?

Would Aang have given more attention to Tenzin? Probably, them being the only airbenders would have almost certainly fostered a complex dynamic between the two— even to the extent that it would damage the father/son relationship. I think it's also worth pointing out that Aang was raised in a culture without the nuclear family dynamic we see him participarting in with Katara and their kids, and it's not out of the realm of possibility that Aang would fall short of the expectations and responibilities being a typical father figure brings especially when he himself never experienced that dynamic. Especially, especially compounded with the task of rebuilding a struggling world and maintaining peace.

However, do I think he would neglect to show his kids his culture? Their culture? No. Certainly not the extent he did, and especially not when we see how excited he is to share it with his friends in the show. Why wouldn't he be excited to share it with his kids? With all his kids? How the writers of The Legend of Korra make him a bad dad is a complex series of failures not the least of which stem from racism, the unwillingness to even attempt an understanding of multicultural families, TLOK originally being a 12 episode miniseries that then got greenlit for another season and was suddenly taxed with building upon a world that was never intended to exist beyond its original scope, and a fundamental misunderstanding of Aang as a character.

tldr:

It's impossible to describe the experience of watching Total Forgiveness to people, like how do I explain that this is one of the most compelling shows I've ever watched and it's even one of my comfort rewatch shows but also I cannot rewatch a good third of the series because it makes me so viscerally uncomfortable and this would absolutely never be greenlit by the Dropout of today but it's also essential viewing for understanding not only the development of the company but the public personas of many of the key people involved in Dropout. It's funny and then it's painfully dark and then at the last minute it's hopeful and heartwarming again but damn if it isn't raw all the way through. From the crushing pressure of living under late-stage capitalism to the severe toll on personal relationships that the very premise of the show enables. Also there's a jaunty little soundtrack. 11/10 will rewatch again and again. Except the MLM challenge. I am psychologically unable to watch that again for any sum of money on this planet.

Hannibal (the TV series) seasons in one sentence:

Season 1: The least amount of police procedural you will ever see in a police procedural.

Season 2: Reins are off now, fuckers, let's do some goddamn character work!

Season 3: Wherein the first half is Hannibal writing fanfiction and the second half has completely new main characters.
