If there's one thing I can be counted on for it's the fact that if someone hasn't heard the Veggie Tales cover of Jesus Take the Wheel before, I WILL make them listen to it

I get my media recommendations the old fashioned way: by watching someone I follow on here go on an unhinged reblog spree of media related content until I eventually decide to go "alright, what's all this then"

i do kind of like what hardison's absence in redemption does for his legacy... like, obviously i miss him all the time but he really did that! he takes care of not just one but multiple crews, he's learned to keep the big picture in view, he coordinates and he leads and he makes decisions not just to prove himself as the best but because he knows now what he wants the world to look like.

and people who know him recognize it! hardison started out with this restless energy, this frantic drive to get the others to see that he's worth it. and obviously he always was, but there's something beautiful about him being secure in the knowledge that the people around him value him and know his level of ability.

and i feel like in redemption that's consistently reinforced through his legacy (breanna), his partners' commitment to him (parker and eliot) and the underlying infrastructure always described, all the groundwork he's done. i do get a kick out of that, it really shows what he's built and what built him as a person.

The eternal question - is it worse to read the words of someone who hates a character you love but is accurate/respectful in their points/portrayal, or someone who loves them more than you do but strips them of all nuance and greyness to legit "they did nothing wrong" when they did SO MUCH WRONG?

#fandom things #fandom wank #fr fr lmao #someone who hates the character but gets them and also respects the fact that i'm a real person and the character is not #will always be preferable to the second esp bc the second so often comes with people #who need to touch grass bc they'll harass real people who disagree with them

okay americans i gotta ask because as an European i grew up with lots of american shows and cartoons and in a lot of them there was an episode where they give the protags a doll or an egg or a bag of flour or whatever and told them pretend to be its parents or something

#polls #misclicked bc i didn't actually get to #but my high school did flour babies till someone used theirs as a weapon the year before i would have had to #and they didn't change it to anything else so i didn't do it

drives me up a wall living in a very very red district, like “no democrat is ever going to win any local election, let alone a real leftist” district, like “our school board members ran on who was the most anti-mask” red, like “I pass white supremacist signs on the way to buy weed” red

and being in the local leftist community and the guy who runs the anarchist book club and the lady who helps keep the warming shelters open and the people who marched on city hall when a local business was getting death threats for having a drag show are all members of a discord and we get on this discord and have frank discussions about how best to vote

the people who do the protests and the mutual aid and all the real work

going “okay, they’re both fascists, but this one lacks ambition and seems happy to just glide in the position” or “they both suck, but this one can be reasoned with if you frame it patriotically enough” like we don’t even have a democrat to vote for. we know what a vote is. we know what we hope accomplish with it. we know what it can do, and we know what it can’t.

and going from those discussions to here where people think that your vote is some kind of fucking??? enabling maneuver??? as if someone isn’t going to end up in that seat regardless of what you do???

we didn’t build this system, we just live in it. we’re just trying to survive. a vote isn’t a statement of your values, it’s not an endorsement, it’s not a marriage contract, it’s a strategic play you make to keep alive.

the biggest mistake I see leftists making is overestimating their own popularity. “well but everyone would be leftist if they just-“ no, stop, 1) you can’t possibly know that 2) everyone will not just
