td spoilers episodes 9-13 (long post; more in depth thoughts towards the end)
ep 9:
the dudes being there for priya awwwww that was so sweet !!
hey julia, is that car cool enough :)
sighhhhh mkulia
julia is that tiktok lumberjack lesbian,, i think shes canadian too
ep 10:
listen, i think we could all agree that the moment damien found that immunity idol way back when sealed his fate that he was NOT going to be a finalist,, so i wasnt surprised, just saddened
julia manipulation truly is everything i love evil women
ep 11:
MACARTHUR??!?!??!??!? truly not the cameo i expected, but i did not mind it!!
can we stop this annoying distrust arc between priya and caleb?
cant believe they killed off raj
so like,, did dinosaurs just never go extinct in the total drama universe??? is this one of the insane lore bits like 9/11 never happening (or happening some time after 2009???) 9/11 was the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs
CANT BELIEVE THEY VOTED OFF RAJ NOOOOOO IM WAYNE FRRR
ep 12:
Tumblr media
me 🤝 priya afraid of lighting + thunder
OLD MAN TENNIS YAOI????!?!?!?! PULLED THEM OUT OF THEIR GRAVES FOR THIS CAMEO WOW
can we stop this annoying distrust arc between priya and caleb? pt2
i dont ship juliayne (juliayne shippers i do not hate you please do your thing i love you), but goddamn i want more interactions between theyre sooooo silly
ep 13: listen, i think wayne winning is fine. do i love himbos? yes. was i rooting for him in the finale? yes. in the grand scheme of things, do i think he is a good finalist? no. we can all agree that hes very much an owen, and i dont mind that!! i actually think having a fan favorite, comic relief, underdog third party winning makes sense in this season, because i dont think caleb or julia winning would be a satisfying end (especially how they were handling them by the end)
caleb's story was messy, and at the end of the day (and i know that the intentions changed), he did start his alliance with priya to use her. him winning, after all of the drama, after priya was gone, wouldve just idk felt shitty. he did get the girl in the end, which concludes his story better than him winning it. (if im comparing this to the tdi 2007 final three,, i guess hes the gwen)
as for julia, she had two seasons to be villain, and it was amazing. she is so good at what she does and she is such a joy to watch. and we all know how total drama handles its villains, they need to get their comeuppance. did bowie double cross her last season? yes. and she came back still was the main villain and was AMAZING at it. but she was still the villain for another 13 episodes, AND HER GETTING PRIYA OUT LAST EPISODE, she cant win. was her just desserts satisfying? meh. nice callback to heather (we all know julia is the heather of this comparison), though i can understand people who dont like this callback and think its tiring or something. they couldve done something else, but im not mad (i kinda fuck with the mullet). i just see no satisfying way for julia to win with how she was presented in these seasons: she was not world tour heather, with three full length seasons and a greater threat to overcome; she was island heather, and therefore could not win.
overall thoughts of the season:
im someone that thinks the hockey bros jokes nearly always land, so i enjoy the shit out of them (i think im in the majority?)
im someone that did not like priyaleb at first, grew to being more neutral about it, but still found it to be a bit tiring. i like priya, i like caleb, i dont like tiring romantic subplots, and it sucks that that was the entire thing for these characters this season
the julia mk duo was AMAZING, one of the highlights of this season and one that i never wouldve expected to be real. mkulia wins in my heart and i hope they start their podcast (JULIA WAS GOIGN TO USE THE MONEY TO START THE PODCAST WITH MK HOLY SHIT GIRL IS IN LOVE)
it sucks that certain characters really got nothing this season (millie, nichelle, emma, and even axel to an extent).. but i get that characters like millie and emma already had a lot of screentime last time and someone has to be an early boot (just realize the ones i listed off were all women,, damn the writers fr just hate women)
at the end of the day, i really enjoyed this season. and i think the most important part of that enjoyment was this was the first time i got to watch a season and have no idea what was going to unfold. i watched the first four season of total drama when they were airing, but i was a little kid with poor comprehension skills. the first three seasons aired before i knew how to read (i learned to read late). and with tdpi, rr, and tdi 2023, i watched them after the fact and knew who the winners were going in. this was the first season i watched were i truly did not know the winner, and that added to my enjoyment. not to mention this being the one and only time i was present in an online space to talk about show as the episodes dropped. this season was a bit messy here and there, but it delivered some great stuff. i found myself laughing out loud and just having a good time, which is all i need out of my silly little cartoon

Alif ba ta song for kids

Alif ba ta song for kids series#
I should have studied harder." Īfter graduating from the boarding school, Khan returned to India and worked for an advertising firm in Delhi for two months. When I applied myself, which was not often, I stood first. My classmates went on to Oxford and Cambridge, but I was not academically inclined. He next enrolled at Winchester College and explained that "I did not take advantage of my tenure. Khan studied at The Lawrence School, Sanawar in Himachal Pradesh and was later sent to Lockers Park School in Hertfordshire at the age of nine. As a child, he recalls fond memories of watching his father playing cricket in the garden, and has emphasised his father's education and background as having a lasting impression on how family life was conducted. Speaking about his childhood, Khan said that he was exposed to a "life beyond movies", and his mother described him as someone who was "not an easy child He was impulsive spontaneous." Saif grew up a Muslim. Hamidullah Khan, the last ruling Nawab of Bhopal was his great-grandfather, and the cricketer Saad Bin Jung is his first cousin. Khan has two younger sisters, jewelry designer Saba Ali Khan and actress Soha Ali Khan, and is the paternal grandson of Iftikhar Ali Khan Pataudi who played for the Indian cricket team in England in 1946, and Sajida Sultan, the Nawab Begum of Bhopal. Following Mansur Ali Khan's death in 2011, a symbolic pagri ceremony was held in the village of Pataudi, Haryana to "crown" Khan as the "tenth Nawab of Pataudi," which Khan attended to please the sentiments of the villagers, who wanted him to continue a family tradition. Khan's father, who was the son of the last ruling Nawab of the princely state of Pataudi during the British Raj, received a privy purse from the Government of India under terms worked out in the Political integration of India and was allowed to use the title Nawab of Pataudi until 1971 when the title was abolished. Khan was born on 16 August 1970 in New Delhi, India to Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, a former captain of the Indian national cricket team, and his wife Sharmila Tagore, a film actress. In addition to film acting, Khan is a frequent television presenter, stage show performer, and the owner of the production companies Illuminati Films and Black Knight Films. He has four children-two with Singh and two with Kapoor. Khan was married to his first wife, Amrita Singh, for thirteen years, after which he married actress Kareena Kapoor. He has been noted for his performances in a range of film genres-from crime dramas to action thrillers and comic romances-and his film roles have been credited with contributing to a change in the concept of a Hindi film hero. Khan has won several accolades, including a National Film Award and seven Filmfare Awards, and received Padma Shri, the fourth highest Indian civilian award in 2010.
Alif ba ta song for kids series#
After another string of under-performing ventures, Khan was appreciated for essaying a troubled policeman in Netflix's first original Indian series Sacred Games (2018) and the main antagonist in Tanhaji (2020), which ranks as his highest grossing release. His greatest hits as solo lead include Race (2008), Love Aaj Kal (2009), Cocktail (2012) and Race 2 (2013). Khan earned universal critical acclaim playing a manipulative businessman in Ek Hasina Thi (2004), an apprentice in English film Being Cyrus (2006), a negative character based on Iago in Omkara (2006) and a terrorist in Kurbaan (2009). He had his first solo box office hit in Kya Kehna (2000) and won awards for applauded roles in the ensemble comedy-dramas Dil Chahta Hai (2001) and Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003) before earning critical and commercial success with the romantic films Hum Tum (2004), Parineeta (2005) and Salaam Namaste (2005). He failed to earn hits with solo lead films in the 90s and had rare successes only in superhit multi starrers like Yeh Dillagi (1994), Main Khiladi Tu Anari (1994), Kachche Dhaage (1999), Hum Saath-Saath Hain (1999). Khan made his acting debut with the flop Parampara (1993). Part of the Pataudi family, he is the son of actress Sharmila Tagore and cricketer Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi. Saif Ali Khan ( pronounced born Sajid Ali Khan Pataudi 16 August 1970) is an Indian actor and producer who works in Hindi cinema.

"Why Indian comic industry not performing well" case study by Kiriti Rambhalta
Case study by Kiriti Rambhatla on "Indian Comic industry". In this article he explained why our industry failed to earn billions against America's Marvel & DC and also how indian comic industry can come back in its full form.
Actually Indian Comics was on peak in 70's-90's. While Marvel & DC were doing transition to TV and reaching to wider range of audience and indian comics were stick on only their printing method. I think transition of comics to Animated formats (like series or feature films) will be best way, also it will help Art industry to grow together with other sub-fields.

AU where The Big Bang Theory isn't low key sexist & scared of gay people where Sheldon Cooper is gay, let me elaborate
- So basically Sheldon spent MANY seasons being completely unbothered by girls & physicality. And I KNOW this is because of his neurodivergent nature, I am neurodivergent too and I relate to him on many levels. But!!! It would make so much sense to me if he came out as gay. Is this because of the fact that Jim Parsons is gay and my brain now associating to this thinks that Seldon could be gay too? I don't know! I was just thinking about this...
- Like for seasons he would be oblivious to why he isn't feeling anything towards girls.
- And since the show started at a time when queer people weren't talked about in public as much, but reached a time where they (we) now are, he could start learing about the LGBTQ+ community by just simply reading stuff on the internet or watching shows, or seeing gay couples in comic books.
- Maybe in one of his favourite TV shows a gay romance would unfold, and while he would still be against any form of human touch, he would realize that the scene is oddly comfortng to him.
- Or maybe Howard would make fun of a queer scene in a comic book, and Sheldon would et really defensive, and destroy his friend wit logic and mean words - but would be a little more defensive than usual.
- He would dream about these gay scenes a lot, and he would probably believe that he has simply gone insane for obsessing over such a stupid thing as TV/comic book romance.
- And then after driving everyone around him crazy be telling them that he has lost his mind, he would finally have a heart-to-heart with Penny who would be very understanding towards him and would tell him "Sweetheart, I don't think you've gone crazy, I think you are just gay, and there's nothing wrong with that."
- Eventually Sheldon would come out to Leonard who would be extremely supportive & tell him that he isn't uncomfortable. (Sheldon would obviously tell him in a very straightforward manner that he isn't interested in a short, lactose-intolerant man who's work is basically just a joke lmao - we all know his standards).
- I can totally imagine Leonard getting offended and saying that he would make an amazing gay lover - to which Sheldon would reply "don't be ridiculous"
- Howard and Raj would't find out instantly because Sheldon is afraid that they would make fun of him. Bernadette would find out through Penny after a while though, and she would tell Howard, who would start to feel bad remembering how he made fun of Sheldon in the past for seeming too gay, etc. Howard would tell Raj, and that is the point where they would go over to Sheldon's and tell him that they know, and it's ok, and they would apologize and promise not to tell anyone if he doesn't want that.
- Sheldon wouldn't really know what to say, but he would thank them for being discreet and understanding. (People at the university don't find out until he gets a boyfriend - and even then only a few select people, since when appearing together, him and his bf would act professional and distant, and only after a looooong long time would they finally be out and proud and hold hands in the cafeteria and stuff)
- He wouldn't find a boyfriend for a long time and wouldn't really find anyone attractive - he would probably think a few very specific fictional characters would be ideal to him if it came to finding a partner tho.
- Eventually Howard & Raj would find him a parter the way they originally did with Amy in the show, when they started to feel bad for Sheldon being alone, they registered him for a dating site without him knowing. -They get together eventually and the rest is history <33
- One more thing about the university, I could imagine Sheldon growing frustrated by comments he hears behind his back, speculating, etc., and one day he would flip out and shout to the entire cafeteria about how he has a boyfriend and he isn't araid of people finding out since he is still the amazing genius he always was. People would ofc be shocked by the sudden outburst, but everything would settle back into normal pretty soon.
- Everything in the show would be the same, (but without the sexism and homophobia, racism - y'know a person can dream). It's just that he wouldn't slowly grow comfortable with a relationship thanks to Amy, but thanks to man. There could've been so many cool storylines and emotional scenes regarding his coming out...
That's it, thanks for reading my rambling. Maybe I should stop binging that godforsaken show...

I'm sorry it's 2 AM as I'm writing this (and I'm also in a terrible mood) but as an Indian myself, I would like to talk about the two terrible characters we received as "representation" in PJO and ToA. (Yes, yes, I know I'm late)
Presenting to you Raj Mandali and Pranjal, the only two characters of South Asian (and possibly Indian) descent in the Greek/Roman universe being written like absolute trash.
Raj Mandali: This dude appeared for like one chapter in the Sea of Monsters and I hated him the second Percy said "oH hE wAs a cAlCuLuS wHiZ". I'm sorry, but I've had enough of the stupid "mathematical genius" stereotype in media. He was, once more, portrayed as this "supporting character who mainly exists for comic relief with no personality traits apart from being extremely smart" (like every other indian rep in hollywood) while also casually throwing in the "white saviour narrative".
Also, that one line he said in Urdu before rushing out of the gym or whatever and Percy just assumed it to be some extremely cliché line because Rick here thought it might sound "fUnNy" to the readers??? (I don't even know why it's cliché in media in the first place because no matter which language, I don't think anyone in real life even says that. I know I personally would never be caught dead saying something like that, I'm sorry.)
Pranjal: Fast forward all the way to the Tyrant's Tomb where we meet our south Asian head healer of Camp Jupiter!!!! Of course he's the smart head healer™!!!! Because the parents over here totally do not force us to "become doctors, engineers or lawyers when we grow up"!!!!
I honestly feel bad for the actual kid on whom Pranjal was based on. I know Rick's trying but it just takes a few words to search up on the stereotypical tropes of not just one, but all ethnicities in the media, especially Hollywood. (Or he could have just asked his friend before making Pranjal after his son, but you know.)
Imagine messing up characters in the only few chapters they appear in as a form of "representation".

4x05 Chapter Sixty-Two: Witness for the Prosecution
Be forewarned: Sweater discourse. 
Tumblr media
(I merely include this moment because Betty is technically in the frame.)
Tumblr media
But contemporary Betty begins the episode in a pink-and-white knit top with short sleeves. She’ll end the ep in a pink-and-white knit with short sleeves, too, but standby.   
Tumblr media
Betty wore this knit top to help Jughead torch the trailer-turned-Fizzle-Rocks-lab. We get a better glimpse this time around (glad to know it survived all that soot and ash and car sex.)
Tumblr media
Love the little two button-detail on the rear-sleeves.
Tumblr media
Ten Little Boy Scouts. 
Tumblr media
Well! I guess you gotta dress the part. 
Off the top of my head, I can’t recall another instance of Betty in this very true-blue shade. It’s more of an Archie color. But the FBI has a brand, so. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(It’s delicate. But potent.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
We get such extreme and vivid close-ups during Betty’s serial-killer-savant moment that I felt compelled to include them. Love the eyeshadow.  
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She pairs the Junior FBI polo with a dark skirt (possibly high-waisted shorts, but I’m leaning skirt.)
Tumblr media
The Legend of the River Witch. (In red.)

(Bret wears black crew socks, he’s the worst.)

Purple and green! Betty’s all over the range in this episode, fittingly. The ribbing and the scalloping of the pink collar are all motifs we’ve seen before. It reminds me of the scalloped and ribbed top she wore in 219.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Purple pants though, that’s new!
Tumblr media
This is the first we’ve seen the bag, but it is a cousin of sorts to the one that appeared during the Stonewall tour in 402. 
The existence of a Dr. Patel in the Riverdale universe leads us to conclude, logically, that somewhere out there in the greater Maple State there exists a Raj Patel. (But when was Riverdale ever logical?)
Tumblr media
Betty’s the only girl in this Junior FBI Program (so Kevin’s odds of finding a gay guy here are decent-ish?), but she seems to be the only one with a kid size polo.

Girl zooms right outta there in her white tennies.

I love old yearbooks. I cannot tell if he is épée or foil, fencing squad pls come thru (I actually think it might be inconclusive given so much of the diff is in the weight of the weapon, no?)

FPJ I could get it. LOOK at that James Dean curl. That Jones fam furrowed brow. The out-from-under gaze. 
(Also, these names.)

Betty’s subconscious! We haven’t really been here since 209? Lots of visual 209 connections in this episode... Betty spent 209 trying to hunt down and stop the Black Hood, and when she and Archie seemingly finally did...she felt like it wasn’t the end of the story (and she was right.) 
Tumblr media
Anyway—short overalls are a Betty classic at this point, and she’s paired them with a pink t-shirt and her pink low-tops.

405.

209.

I’m not going to engage with the fact that she’s wearing a bra/lette to bed (this is such a network TV thing)—but these two shirts are really similar. Their color difference might just be slightly too disparate to be down to a difference in color grading—but I do think we’ve all noticed a difference in the color and light in season 4 versus season 2. (Oh how I long for the clear tones of season 1, if only for the clarity of screen caps.)  
Tumblr media
I love this whole party scene, but doesn’t it feel like it might end up being significant beyond this episode?

Anyway, back to Betty the Serial Killer Whisperer.

It’s a good thing she didn’t burn them when Alice suggested it.

Little Betty! At one point, pink-and-red seemed to be connected to Betty’s relationship with Archie, but here I’m honestly not drawing those kind of conclusions. This scene has a different purpose. 
Little Betty’s wardrobe is consistent between Teenage Betty’s dream and her retelling of the Caramel Incident to Kevin. Of course, it’s simply easier to have a single wardrobe for these things, but Riverdale’s made the decision to mix it up before (albeit on higher budget episodes.)
Let’s interpret this costuming consistency as the narrative giving Betty the benefit of the doubt. She’s able to see some things clearly, even if she’s repressed some deeply upsetting shit her father forced her to do. I’m having Old Yeller flashbacks.

I don’t even know if I’m implying anything, I just really like the visual parallel and that I’m being forced to think about it.

It perhaps takes a special kind of zeal to take your half-brother’s confidence that he, too, possesses the serial killer genes and decide not that it means you’re gonna be just fine—but that instead, he’s sus. 
But I dunno, gotta break some eggs in order to make an omelette, etc. 
Tumblr media
I’ll just repeat that genes are not destiny.
Tumblr media
Stripes, ribbed knit, short sleeves, pinks and blues—all very Betty. 
Tumblr media
However, not sure we’ve ever seen Betty in a baseball cap before, even in previous investigation modes! 
Tumblr media
I think this might be her purple non-investigation jacket that we first saw in 213 (and most recently in 314.) It’s the sturdy jacket she wears when she finds herself in...less savory efforts, shall we say. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But! Another flash-forward!
Poor Archie.
Tumblr media
“What’s happening?”
Tumblr media
“Wait are we getting up?”
Tumblr media
“Okay okay I’ll get up too.”

This sweater is, apparently, divisive. I’ve actually already talked about it a bit in response to an ask. It reminds me of something a Sweater Girl would wear, and I find it really interesting to consider Betty in that context. A sweater is ‘wholesome,’ but a Sweater Girl is seen as sexual—and therefore as something dangerous and corrupting. A patriarchal society fears nothing greater than a woman with some agency. FP storms into this classroom and declares Betty—this whole trio—to be under arrest for murdering Jughead.
This sweater is a bit like Archie’s dial television, or his rotary phone. It’s almost so anachronistic as to be noticeable. 
Tumblr media
To be brief—there’s something about this sweater and the context of this scene that gives this whole flash-forward a very strange vibe. 
Everyone is so shifty-eyed, they have no poker-faces. FP barges in here with two goons behind him, shot Wes Anderson-style. There’s a comics vibe to it. Coen-esque. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But also I just think it’s something Betty would wear: it’s pink, it’s got a Peter Pan collar, it’s got some lace trim. It’s Betty Cooper in disguise as Betty Cooper, and it’s not the first time she’s tried that. 
Summary: I think I’ve got a count of 9—that includes 3 separate instances of the Junior FBI uniform, Teenage Betty’s dream outfit, and the flash forward—but doesn’t include Little Betty. So let’s make it 10. 
Is Betty a River Vixen??: Again, just on Jug’s wall 
That backpack?: Yes, multiple appearances of Backpack 2.0.
The floggingink Memorial Peter Pan Collar Count: The Sweater!
Best outfit: u know wut I’m gonna be staunch and say The Sweater. (I also really love V’s floral crop top in that scene.)
