i've just finished my s7 rewatch and it's kinda so funny to me how much discourse people created over every bucktommy interaction when their whole arc boils down to tommy being patient and vulnerable with buck and showing up for him. like when you are not wearing shipper goggles under the name of "analysis" and don't try to reverse-engineer every word and look and shot with utmost bad faith, that's what it is. a simple and sweet story of a new exciting relationship with a guy who's understanding and willing to show up. literally the two things buck needs from a relationship but never had with his previous love interests. they are kinda sickeningly sweet and well-communicating actually lol
#yall are too serious and too strict about a show being written two weeks in advance like i love this show but picking out bits and pieces#and trying to make it all fit a narrative is kinda doing too much no one in the writing room is being that deliberate or precise or#enigmatic with their word choices as they write for a prime time network tv procedural#sometimes when a joke is played as a joke it's a joke#when a character says a character is good for another character thats what they mean#this show does not require reading between the lines for subtext it's just asking you connect the dots with common sense#and it's okay if you dont like the execution you can just say that without trying to make it an issue of morality or becoming#conspiracy theorists#anyway rant over#bucktommy#they are so precious i hope abc doesnt mess up this once in a lifetime luck they struck with tommy and continue the overall#beautiful dynamic they captured in a short few episodes#tevan#911#also not saying this to bash any of his ex girlfriends i actually liked all of them for different reasons except for natalia who was#unfortunately just a blip#mimi.txt

the way Ricky's death is shown is so fucking cool too like obviously they can't show someone get jfk-d so they cut to a different angle and don't show any blood but instead we're put behind him and the red light shines just right to make you feel like his head got blown directly onto you
#UGGSGGSGDGSHHHFH INCREDIBLE FUCKING SCENE TOO LIKE WHAT A HORRIFIC WAY TO DIE. MAN#literally xmen first class 2011 dir matthew vaughn. sorry for saying that#doctor who#dw spoilers#ricky september#dot and bubble

#project sekai#tsukasa tenma#emu otori#nene kusanagi#rui kamishiro#wonderlands x showtime#my art#u can tell who got drawn first and who got drawn last that’s all I’m saying#based on their initial unit outfits but with many creative liberties taken#tsukasa was a pain in the ass bc his outfit is boring but I mainly focused on his gay little Diamond belt#originally his costume was darker hence the dark outlines but it didn’t read as his initial costume so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯#emu got stripes bc 1 her sock 2 her dress skirt. had to include the orange and red in her hat tho lesbian dress reigns supreme#nene got polka dots bc they’re cute that’s it#& rui I just had fun with#oh their makeup is based on their world link card suits 👍🏻 does not read well w the hair but what can u do#one day I won’t draw super tiny on a canvas that is normal sized and have to do the crop of shame#but it is not today#one day I will also make a serious drawing again probably but I am lazy

okay so now that it's actually crab day i just realized another thing that bothers me about it. it is still disability pride month. you're telling me. that we're throwing a Tumblr Fundraiser Holiday. in the midst of countless real disabled ppl trying to speak up about tumblr's unwillingness to fix massive issues like regularly letting dangerous, seizure inducing content get blazed and then suggesting that photosensitive users pay to make it stop instead of fixing the problem. during the month specifically about celebrating and listening to disabled people???
#people were trying to say that 'the creator being a bigot has nothing to do w the idea of the fundraiser'#but guess what! if you let a bigot come up w your event and choose a day they aren't going to take ppl outside of their bubble into account#people like say. the disabled people who have been raising these concerns.#sigh.#crab day#tungle dot hell#disability#disability pride month

sorry, i'm still hung up on how bad the writing for sarevok was in bg3. it's not even just "he's so out of character!!" bad. that is just straight up not him. literally who is this man, what the hell is he talking about, and what has he done with the actual sarevok because nothing he says makes ANY sense like....
just as one example of how wild the contradictions/retcons are, this is how bg3 has him recount his resurrection in bg2 -
and this is (parts of) how it actually happened -
like??? it's so bad and weird and dumb and for WHAT???
#larian critical#jaheira HELP my idiot brother has some sort of dementia and he's down in some weird cave telling people we made him forget how to piss (?!)#idk it's just so weird how he absolutely did not need to be there#just make orin's dad some random like this literally does nothing for the plot. i do not understand why he's even included#ppl being like 'it's just fanservice!!' girl..... which fans are being serviced by this??#bcs people who know the og series hate it and people who don't have no idea who this random man is. literally for what !! WHO is this for !#what was the reasonnnnn !!!!!!!!!#replaying bg2 is just making me annoyed all over again rjgnkjfnv#no sarevok in bg3 girl that's koveras#idk.. i have Things To Say about this and other things broadly bc it has me thinking..... the wheels..... turning.... connecting dots#i'm gonna be annoying and make an actual thoughtful post about it soon probably sorry <3

people who date taylor swift or others like her at this stage are so brave it's not even about the songs it's just the ticking clock before you get Commercialized that would make me run for the hills
#not saying these are poor little men who must be defended from evil witch songstress mind you.#idc if she threw those mfs into an active volcano literally or metaphorically#it's just the tmz-fication of music and art that irks me so much#like she's not being inspired by her personal life to write music be so serious that's not what she does#she very consciously and masterfully picks references she knows her fans will pick up on and connect the dots on#but she's not selling music (not only at least). she's selling gossip#i'll admit there's at least more artistry involved in that than in a paparazzi walk but in principle they're the same#she's not the only one who does it btw.

seeing people say "oh my gosh ricky september's actor is so (hot/great/cute/etc) he should be the next doctor!!" is actually so jarring because like. we watched the same episode right? how did the point fly that far over your head??
it is insane.
#doctor who#dot and bubble#ncuti gatwa#fifteenth doctor#15th doctor#ricky september#like it's. what???#saying he should've been a companion is ONE THING but saying he should be the doctor is a whole other thing#time and place??#don't ask me where i saw this i don't remember#prolly an instagram comment section#bailey has thoughts

me reaching for my phone and opening tumblr.com/dashboard as soon as I wake up: wow, I can't believe lindy opens her bubble as soon as she wakes up. talk about chronically online
#doctor who#doctor who spoilers#people are saying dot and bubble isn't a criticism of tiktok and social media#and to them i would say#no sorry it actually is#it's just that what it's criticizing isn't so much ''lol tiktok is ruining society because dances and tide pods''#and more ''social media has become increasingly insular to the point where we forget to see outside of our own perspectives''#and also ''surounding yourself only with people who are like you and agree to perpetuate your status quo…#…even in spaces where difference is encouraged and celebrated is detrimental to you those around you and society in general actually''#which is also critiques one can make about white supremacism#and ignoring the criticisms the episode makes about social media#imo ignores a big part of the message rtd was trying to convey in this episode

following on from this. not to always bring marc into everything (sorry marc) but if assen 2015 had happened against jorge, valentino would have very likely pulled something similar again imo. rather than what he actually did, which is approach marc almost immediately for a nice normal friendly handshake and backing off during the podium celebrations. should be noted that during laguna seca '08, valentino was very much committed to yapping at casey on the podium with the world's biggest smuggest grin on his face
partly that disparity is because jorge not marc was the direct title rival, partly it's because valentino was treating marc with kid gloves right until the second that he wasn't, which marc was seemingly entirely oblivious to. if anyone other than marc had said what he said in that presser, had then continued on with similar rhetoric during sachsenring, valentino would quite likely have gone nuclear. he's done it over less than that. his fondness for marc made him continue to exhibit uncharacteristic restraint... except that fondness unfortunately is what left valentino feeling so very betrayed when (to his eyes) marc could not leave well enough alone
#it's so delightfully tragic isn't it. a lot of 2015 played out the way it did because valentino genuinely wasn't looking for beef#but then felt backed into a corner and decided he had no other option than to blow this shit up#if casey says 'what I think is that we won the race' valentino would've torn him a new one then and there like...#if sete had called assen his best race of the season valentino would've reached for the chalk and incense even sooner#though fwiw I do think the relationship was basically doomed from that point. something would have happened sooner or later#2015 is so funny conceptually because there was already something *off* about it most of the way through. you have the familiar beats#but they shouldn't be HAPPENING with marc. they should be happening with the actual title rival - who vale never properly fought all season#assen 2015 should've been laguna should've been catalunya hell it should've been assen 2004 but it couldn't be#valentino kept accidentally inflicting the psychological blows on the wrong guy because jorge just refused to end up in a straight fight#assen SHOULD have been a pivotal race. but of course it couldn't be because what psychological blow was jorge lorenzo being dealt?#btw the unwillingness to beef doesn't just extend to marc. valentino makes a concerted effort to be uncharacteristically friendly to jorge#still think he would've rubbed assen in his face but. overall! he was trying! which again. very ironic#funhouse mirror ass season i love it dearly#//#brr brr#slowly dipping my toes into dropping 2015 hot takes on tumblr dot com... for so long these have been between me god and my google doc#i love jorge i think he's been involved in a lot of iconic battles i think it's funny not a single one of them happened in 2015#minus kinda phillip island but even there it did feel like the other three were Doing More than him#also just a different vibe to a proper one-on-one. a WEIRD title run where the third man that whole year walks away with the trophy#idol tag

Everyone says they love a devastatingly painfully slow burn romance until I, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia—
#macdennis#iasip#it's always sunny in philadelphia#text#pay no attention to the tags behind the curtain hashtag normalcore hashtag silly#meme#anmmbposts#*girl who still has faith in them and trusts the structure in spite of it all*#*girl who has thoughts on the tragedy of stagnation in the sitcom format and parallels and contrasts to waiting for big mo in the themes of#change and what must happen first in order for such a lasting change to occur*#meant to say waiting for g*dot but anyway#ignore my tags look at my post#it wouldn't be the gay gay*ss love story for the ages without the excruciating wait because of who they are and what the show is#and what they're trying to break and subvert#as long as there is eventually follow through which i again do still have faith in/think they're legit building towards even if it feels#like a tease because of how many ways other media has burned us but they still have time to make the build up mean something

All adoptees who feel personally victimized by the absolute trash fire that is Ruby Sunday’s birth mother complex should receive a check from RTD for $1000 bc seriously what was that shit.
#doctor who#doctor who spoilers#ruby sunday#my post#what a bad lesson to teach adopted kids and foster kids#i don’t want to go into it on tumblr dot com but just#as someone who had a similar birth circumstance and was adopted#i disagree with the writing of ruby sunday almost entirely besides some of the things carla says#also disagree on a pure writing logic level with Ruby actually finding her birth mother bc what#anyways if you are genuinely interested in hearing my thoughts about it you can send a dm i guess

What a whimsical looking young man I wonder if he has received any job offers recently
Original photo
#my art#project sekai#rui kamishiro#if u saw this get posted before: no u didn’t#forgot to schedule the post for the morning incident 60 dead 600 injured.#i feel obligated 2 say I actually post abt pjsk on my main (apotelesmaa) frequently (I have brain worms)#& I only post on this blog once in a blue moon and it’s usually not serious art atp#so do not expect anything.#curtain call. what an event. love rui he’s such a good character. I hope he explodes.#he is so full of love and so bad at recognizing his emotions and problems.#‘I don’t have any emotional hang ups about anything’ says the guy who has so many emotional hang ups#rationalizing pulling back as safety measures instead of fearing abandonment/concern of hurting tsukasa (or others) again ->#rationalizing accepting asahi’s job offer because it’s the best for his future even if it’s not the best for himself#also tbh I think to some degree u could argue accepting the job offer was his way of getting ahead of being abandoned#not that it would happen and not that he’d recognize that to begin with#negative self awareness king! he is not processing his emotions at all!#would love for him to mention the job offer in a future event. even just offhandedly. shaking him by the shoulders. talk to ur friends moron#me when I’m in a not recognizing what I’m feeling and how it effects me competition and my opponent is rui kamishiro from hit game pjsk#etc etc. anyways.#once again falling into the ‘sure whatever this can go on the art blog’ category#in that I used simultaneously too much effort and very little in creating it#once again: [hope you’re hungry. for NOTHING] dot jpeg. as is typical here at hallowclave dot tumblr dot com.

one of the best things about eiffel is that he manages to be a guy whose personality revolves around 80s / 90s pop culture without being even a little elitist or gatekeep-y about it. genuinely delightful. but you must never forget that he does fantasize about being in a ready player one scenario where trivia that amounts to "hey, remember the 80s?" and acting out movie scenes from memory will make everyone think he's soo cool and awesome and get him laid.
#wolf 359#w359#doug eiffel#and i want him. so what does that say about me.#i think he should give hera some book recommendations. i think that would be very funny.#he's exactly the kind of guy who loves to read Lists of Things He Recognizes. horus if you see this i can't stop thinking about#'he's like a wikipedia boyfriend but for tv tropes.' hauntingly real. doug eiffel you would love the random page button on tvtropes dot org

it must have been so confusing tutoring subaru from a lugnican perspective, like, how the hell do you invent an entire syllabary all on your own and still be completely fucking illiterate
#re:zero#they dont know its japanese...#BUT in one of the side stories subaru does explain that its from ''his village'' to ram and teaches it to her#which is a fun reversal on their tutoring dynamic esp bc ofc ram is a better student. but also seeing their interactions is so fun#i love their bickering friendship. they trust each other more than anything but also cant not insult each other for 2 seconds#BUT THEYRE BOTH IN ON THE BIT! they both know its jokes#but whats actually the MOST interesting part of that story is how at the end ram says she RECOGNIZES those symbols from somewhere#and that still hasnt been addressed in the main story#maybe its dots we're supposed to connect on our own somehow but#WHERE AND WHEN would ram have encountered symbols from earth just in general?? how???#shes literally just some girl. who is the reincarnation of a god. but is mostly just some girl#i have theories but none have been proven as far as i can tell#fucking mystery

tma au where everything is the same except the Eye doesn’t let people say swear words in their Statements. As in, it censors them. You get your trauma ripped out of you and, to add insult to injury, The Eldritch Horror of Not Minding Your Own Damn Business forces you to describe these viscerally awful things that you’ve experienced using the word “unalive.”
#the magnus archives#tma#the eye#i just think it would be really funny if someone walked into jon’s office just in time to hear him saying some shit like#“Statement of Trevor Herbert regarding his life as a self-proclaimed vampire unaliver”#i think this would actually be beneficial to the Eye bc it could feed off the shame and humiliation of#having to say the word unalive in public against your will#i’m sure i can’t be the first person to have made this post. i mean. what is the eye if not#the embodiment of those kids who films strangers in public to post on tiktok dot com#*film.
