levi & mikasa’s platonic relationship development is HEAVILY underrated in the fandom and for what
the fact that people barely realize it has always been odd to me because it’s pretty clear how differently levi treats mikasa ,, he’s always treated her with a softer approach and i’ve always been under the impression that he’s acknowledged a parallel between them during the female titan attack so he understands; especially during the ackerbowl scene. i genuinely was not surprised that levi didn’t get mad because he probably sees the younger version of himself in her actions.
mikasa’s development towards levi is subtle. she doesn’t wear her emotions on her sleeves, and it’s not a thing that has started immediately like levi’s mini-analysis of her during the female titan attack, but she trusts levi. she trusts his ability. mikasa’s view on levi has changed and her original resentment has morphed into respect.
this is a big thing because the ema trio represent different things, and mikasa represents pride. she’s prideful in her strength. she’s the muscle of the group and she understands how worthy she is.
not only that, but she’s protective when it comes to her loved ones and this is shown in multiple occasions. ironically, one of the most noted scenes of her protectiveness is when levi beats up eren during the trial and she surges over with armin having to hold her down.
this is why her showing trust in other people is a big deal in her development ,, she’s protective, but instead of relying on her strength only, she learns to trust others on her own will, like eren, armin, hanji, and even levi.
trust & family are two big themes in aot — levi & mikasa’s platonic relationship shows both of these aspects as it develops. mikasa trusts levi, and levi becomes aware of their shared bloodline in s3, creating even more probability that levi continues to look over mikasa from a distance.
anyways levi and mikasa survive and have an ackertalk challenge go

soooo much of the modern conception of gender is based around products and consumerism that people can’t even identify actual misogyny anymore. People reply to posts “It’s sexist to hate on something so many women enjoy” and that something would be a Stanley cup

Everyone wanted to be thicc but nobody wanted to be fat. Everyone wanted the dad bod but nobody wanted to be fat. Everyone wants fat mommy milkers but nobody wants mommy to be fat. Everyone wants to be a bear but not like, an actual fat bear. You get what i’m saying

What's that bro? You began interacting with a media from a different country than yours and/or was made in time period different than the recent present day? Haha that's sick bro! Keep expanding your horizons bro! You're remembering to take into account that sociocultural norms, gender roles and genre expectations are different from what you are used to and meeting the story halfway, instead of forcibly superimposing your ideals into the story, right bro? Right? Right?

Also, Astroglide is fucking terrible lube. Gotta go for the ol' Kentucky Jelly
you’re probably not sick like me so you’re not spectating the delusions but there are people publishing daily bulletins about their ‘progress’ to manifest a cancelled tv show back into reality, and it includes things like “one of the actors posted a selfie today” and “an intern at a content farm wrote a blog article about it”

"this fandom is annoying" every fandom is annoying dipshit. it came free with being passionate about something.

We as a society have to start acknowledging that someone having a different perception of the same event is not a Gaslight. The foundational film you're thinking of is Rashōmon.

sad reality of the fanfic-to-published work economy is that the weirdest people are willing to do it. that's why there's now hundreds of shitty no plot cishet hate-to-love enemies-to-lovers books that are ex reylo fanfic. and it's not even good. that's because the people who wrote book-quality steve/bucky and kirk/spock fic are too normal to think to themselves "i should get this porn published". they're too busy working in local government offices

The idea of there being one American accent is very funny to me. I don't even have the same accent as people who grew up in the same city as me.
it is literally almost 2am and im sitting here being scared of the united states like what the fuck there are so many people there!!!!! and they're all just speaking with their american accent like hello??? how do you not just laugh all the time. americans wake up and go to their american jobs and american schools that's so fucking weird. i imagine it as a fake place because it's where everywhere on tv is.

Alternative readings are good, I say, while grinding my teeth because I don’t like this particular one
