#and it is valid imo

[profoundmakerdreamerss-blog]

I hate, hate golden trio bashing fics. They have such a ride-and-die friendship like bro they raided a bank together then fled on a dragon they stuck together through so much — while having fights like normal friends do, but the best thing about them? They get back together. No matter what. Thus, coming out of a literal war in one piece, together; if that doesn't tell you how much they love each other then I don't know what to tell you.

#they would die for each other #they are so damn loyal to each other that it's kind of scary #and it is valid imo #like i wouldn't be surprised if they come out of the war being codependent #honestly that would be least of their worries #golden trio #hermione granger #harry potter #ron weasley #harry james potter #i can list all the things they did for each other and i will one #ill make a post on how they fucking complete each other #because they do #one isnt better than each other #they are better #and they are happier together #u dont gotta compare #the golden trio

Can someone please explain this richonne van lore to me? I can't listen to the podcast you mentioned

oh, I will GLADLY. so season 7 episode 12 of The Walking Dead is called 'Say Yes' and is widely known as the rick and michonne honeymoon episode by cast and fans alike. It aired in 2017.

For context, it's not a literal honeymoon but those are the vibes. it's the first episode dealing with their relationship properly after they first get together in season 6. Rick and Michonne hornily volunteer for a sneaky cheeky supply run to go retrieve supplies surrounded by a herd of Walkers.

Rick and Michonne are horny as fuck so the episode has lots of them kissing and so forth. now, the VAN SCENE™ is them in the back of the van they've been driving around making out very aggressively. it's as close as TWD can ever get to a sex scene where people are not having sex because TWD was a cable TV show. It's a very brief scene, less than 30 seconds but it's uhh VERY hot.

after the episode aired, Danai Gurira and Andrew Lincoln were asked about shooting these scenes on a panel (I can't find a link but if I do I'll put it here/if anyone has one lmk). both of them mention that, while shooting the van scene, there was a take where they got so "carried away" the footage would never be released. the director of the episode also joked he keeps the footage locked up. None of them ever really said what was in the footage but....well, we're all adults and we can all have a guess. and that's all we could do.... UNTIL NOW.

So, there's a podcast called Richonne Revelry, hosted by some huge fans of TWD. In an episode they released earlier this year about the trailer for The Ones Who Live, one of the hosts mentioned that they met, TWD director Greg Nicotero. Nicotero directed 'Say Yes' and so the podcast host says that she asked Nicotero to tell her about the van scene shoot.

ACCORDING TO HER, Nicotero spilled the beans. Apparently, they just set up the gear in the van with no crew as a closed set and told Danai Gurira and Andrew Lincoln they could just do their thing, which is pretty standard for scenes like that. BUT, according to the host of this podcast, Nicotero said that when his crew got the footage, it was wayyyyyy too raunchy (she says he told her danai was topless for most of it) and danai and andrew were making out so uh.....intensely that the footage couldn't even be spliced to make it appropriate for the show. Danai and Andrew, apparently, were very shocked they had to reshoot because they were actually really happy with it, but Nicotero insisted they do it again and rein it in so they could have some usable footage. The version of the scene we see in the show is the "tame" reshot version, allegedly.

All of this is alleged, of course. A lot of people joke like it's a sex tape, but honestly nudity guidelines for commercial TV are so strict and specific it doesn't take much for any intimate footage to become unusable. Plus, unsimulated sex is a hugeeee no no in mainstream entertainment. Productions get crucified over it. so if that had happened we absolutely would not have heard about it, let alone hear actors joking about it for years. But anyways, that's the lore! One thing we can all agree on is that Danai Gurira and Andrew Lincoln are DEDICATED to their craft, by all reports lmao. personally, I'm just glad to hear a behind the scenes story about actors getting carried away in the moment which DOESN'T involve anyone getting hurt or mistreated 🥰

#richonne #andrew lincoln #danai gurira #the walking dead #and imo they're so valid for all of that <333 #also ppl thinking they having some type of affair when they're actually just theatre trained so they're insane theatre kids #twd van lore

[ cw: death mention / family death mention / ]

Mhmm I sure love thinking of the reality where we did get more time to really know Karai and her dynamics with the bros. Losing her hit hard in the finale, but it would’ve hit much, much harder had we known Karai longer and really saw her relationships develop with everyone.

I especially would have been interested in her dynamic with Leo, as past iterations often have the two of them clash in ideals and the like while still sharing many characteristics. Two sides of the same coin, and all that. Her specifically being the bros’ Gram-Gram also adds a whole new dynamic as well.

Imagine how interesting it would be, to have Karai start off on Leo’s side for once, showing wholly just how alike the two are at their cores and bonding as family without the worry of betrayal or animosity that other iterations suffer through, only to have Karai die anyway. Their parting hug and the desperate look of horror Leo wears later on would have hit that much harder, I feel.

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rise of the tmnt #rise karai #rise leo #rottmnt karai #rottmnt leo #I think a lot about these two in particular #and how that dynamic could have flourished #the way it was depicted in the finale is so purposefully unique and painful like #that hug man #can you imagine how much more heartbreaking that would have been if we knew her longer #not that it wasn’t already sad but we just simply didn’t know her long enough to be completely attached #also imo having more episodes with her and in general would have presented something I’ve been thinking about since the finale #so like - I like to think each bro kinda immediately leans more toward certain family members #Mikey has Draxum #Donnie has April #Raph has Splinter because this is another one that would be SO GOOD and make the finale moment where Raph sees his memories hit harder #if they had an ep or two more of Splinter and Raph together bc I really do feel like Raph respects Splinter most of the four #and finally- Leo has Karai #and then he loses her #imo? this would align with the movie even more #because it was the act of heroism that kinda killed her in a way - makes sense that Leo would initially be leaning away from that #and yet he ends up exactly like her anyway #haha sorry for rambling I just really love the interesting dynamic these two tend to have #and it’s a shame we didn’t get to see it really explored in rise #but yeah make no mistake while I’m focusing on Leo here I wanted more for all the boys and karai #Mikey’s little moments with her were so sweet and we already know how much he yearns for more family #Karai being from an age long gone would mean she’d be super impressed by literally any invention Donnie has (adult validation!!) #and could you imagine her training with Raph - with this training being referenced in the finale?

NGL Thor gotta be my fav Avenger. Trust this boy with my life if I was in the MCU, maybe im biased because I relate to Loki a ton though? Thors a good bro to Loki and therefore prime comfort character material in my head.

#also the trend of middle aged moms liking thor? #valid hes a fertilty god and also Thor 1 was a romcom from his POV #those middle aged moms where real for that imo #thor odinson #thor

Intellectually I understand where people are coming from, but personally I do THE biggest double take every time someone boils down conservative Christian ideology (and/or secularized cultural reflections thereof) to a kind of dour puritanism that proclaims happiness is sin/suffering is a moral good/everyone should be miserable all the time. Like I get it! I do. But also, institutionally, I have never met a group of more passionate worshippers and vicious defenders of their own comfort than evangelical Christians. There is a reason the common thread between my various weird triggers more or less boils down to "toxic positivity." There is a REASON my exvangelical tag is #walking away from omelas.

#one of my biggest problems with half-cooked critiques of christianity tbqh #and fundamentally it's just the flip side of the same coin #to liberal christians going 'well republicans aren't REAL christians bc they flout the teachings of their own holy text' #religions are socially as well as ideologically constructed! 'real' christianity is christianity as it is really practiced! #valid critique WITHIN the faith perhaps but not that meaningful (and in fact kind of willfully dense imo) take on christianity as a whole. #likewise trying to pin the evils of institutional christianity on some fatal underlying theological flaw is getting the issue backwards #in much the same way that treating race as a biological reality as opposed to a social construct is getting things backwards #empires do not rob and murder and enslave because they are racist. #they do those things out of naked self interest and invent racism to justify themselves and prop up their power. #walking away from omelas #my posts

my personal hot take of the day is that you cannot fully appreciate ten if you don't also appreciate martha and the dynamic they have

#ten's trait of always expecting to be alone in the end but still craving connection more than anything #and that leading to fucking disastrous results bc he can't reconcile these two parts of him #is EXEMPLIFIED in his dynamic w martha. you do not see it w rose you only see it like twice w donna #and imo it's one of the most interesting and honestly relatable things about his character #dr who #10 era #ten and martha #when i watched series 3 i didn't see someone who couldn't love someone else i saw someone #that falls in love (/platonic) SO quickly and SO easily and needs to be around people SO bad it actively scares him #btw the converse of this statement is not necessarily true shoutout to all the people who don't actually care for anything in rtd era #except for martha. keep having valid & true opinions in life like that you guys

[cluster-b-culture-is]

Cluster b culture is being mad that your personality disorders are demonized in media and only portrayed as serial killers in horror movies,,,but also having those same characters being your favorites and projecting your disorder onto them anyways bc "omg they're just like me fr"

.

#cluster b culture is #cluster b #anonymous #bpd #npd #hpd #aspd #mod orange #mood #imo it's totally valid to be annoyed about bad representation while still having fun with what little representation we get #plus reclaiming all the negative stereotypes and poking fun at them is very fun

Buck: I thought we were on track, and now you're standing there looking at me like I'm crazy! Eddie: I'm not looking at you like you're crazy! Buck: You know the last time I invited someone go-kart racing? And helped them repair their damaged bedroom with holes all over it? And gave dating advice to their son?! NEVER! That's when! Very easy stat to remember! Eddie: I loved that you did all that! Buck: And then when I drove you home the other night, there was a moment. I thought there was a moment! Eddie: There was!...There was a moment. (Buck stares at him for a moment, then starts to move closer. Eddie, surprised, backs away a little) Eddie: - What are you doing? Buck: Will you just stand still? (Buck kisses him. They break away, then Eddie moves closer again, and Buck backs away) Buck: - What are you doing? Eddie: Will you just stand still? (Eddie kisses him)

i really hope sonic's attitude gets checked by the end of the series though fr. like this whole time he's been sooo adamant about the shattered copies of his friends being HIS friends. when that's just not true. and forcing that image onto them isn't right or fair. shadow was fucking right when he said they weren't the same people, and i hope sonic ends up agreeing with him and able to see the different versions of his friends as their own individuals. especially since nine himself said to STOP calling him tails. like be serious, sonic </3

#sonic prime spoilers #his insistence on this is a character flaw imo #which is not a bad thing! it's interesting! but i hope it gets treated with the wrongness it deserves instead of being validated

i need to go to sleep. anyways whenever people rag on sally in archie it makes me kind of sad because i KNOW her writing sucks. i KNOWW i know i know. its sexist and reductive and it limits her agency and makes her story revolve around romance about one billion times more than it should. but i loooove her. shes not a perfect leader either! like shes not GOING to be someone who never worries about “frivolous” things, who’s always focused on a bigger goal and who never fucks up her personal relationships for dumb reasons because she was scared and selfish. the things she did in archie werent written in to give her depth they were written in because shes a GIRL and girls are EMOTIONAL and OBSESSED WITH BOYS. but i think her closest friend died and she had one of the worst years of her life and she grew out her hair even though she hated it that long and suddenly he shows back up like nothings wrong and shes terrified of losing him again even though its fucking selfish and stupid of her and she’d never say that! why the hell would she say that she doesnt think that. sonic wouldnt want that *she* wouldnt even want that. but everything is messed up and bad so she said it anyways like she meant it, and she felt horrible about it for months. what kind of leader of mobius’ only force against robotnik says something like that! well the teenaged kind. fuckk. anyways. sally

#txt157 #sth #theres a LOT of valid crit of sallys writing in archie #but a lot of it expects her to be a perfect flawless leader #who only makes mistakes that are like. Cool or easy to apologize for #which isnt any better imo #and like. those sorts of minor flaws are NOT the archie way

Hargreeves sexuality and gender headcanons cuz I’m bored.

Luther-

I 100% believe he is CisHet but he is absolutely an ally. He probably didn’t understand everything at first but Viktor and Klaus helped explain and he got the gist of it. He also maybe uses He/They pronouns? He thinks They/Them just sounds nice.

Diego-

I know a lot of people think that Diego is a trans man and I think that would be cool (as a trans man myself) but I just don’t really see it. I kind of understand it but I don’t really agree. I definitely do think he’s Bi though, female leaning. Definitely He/Him.

Allison-

I also see lots of people thinking she’s a trans woman, and I think that’s a great headcanon imo but I again do not agree. I absolutely don’t see her as anything but Cisgender Heterosexual. And I honestly like it that way. I don’t think all of the Hargreeves siblings have to be LGBTQ+, I think some of them should be straight too. I think Allison might have messed around with girls but she just didn’t really feel a click like she does with males. She/Her.

Klaus-

I think most of us agree Klaus is not Cis or Straight. There is no way. I would probably say he is Non-Binary or Gender-fluid. He never heard those terms until they were a bit older, probably after Five disappeared, and the first time he heard it was someone shit-talking it, and they wanted to look more into it. So occasionally Viktor and Grace would be allowed to go to the library because Viktor usually didn’t have much else to do so Klaus asked him if next time he goes if he could look up those words for him and Viktor obviously said sure. He came back and told Klaus about it and Klaus was like, “yep, that’s me.” They were happy there was a word for it. I also think Klaus is Pansexual, but he also isn’t very fond of labels anyway. They honestly just think everyone’s hot (EXCEPT CHILDREN NOT CHILDREN). Any pronouns but mainly He/They.

Five-

I think Five’s above gender and stuff like that. When they were kids Viktor had a crush on Five and Five just found it disgusting. Partially because they’re like siblings but also because Five does not want a relationship or anyone to have a crush on him. Five also never liked gender roles and was confused why there were differences in the uniforms depending on gender. Five saw Viktor and Klaus wearing each others uniforms and was a little confused why Reggie wouldn’t just let Klaus wear what he wanted but also was kind of confused why Klaus even wanted to wear skirts. Five never really thought about gender much though because he thought it was incredibly stupid and useless. Five always thought that way. But especially whenever Five was in the apocalypse, he had absolutely no use for it. Five wishes that they didn’t live in a gendered society but he we are. If he has to use terms for himself, he’d say he’s Agender and AroAce (Yay AAA battery). Five doesn’t like using pronouns and prefers his name but if it’s mandatory Five uses He/Him pronouns but Klaus uses They/them for him cause he knows Five likes it.

Ben-

I don’t know enough about Ben to give a really detailed answer but I have a simple bit to say. I would like to think he’s Bisexual, but I don’t really think he is. I like the headcanon but again we don’t know enough about him. I think he’s Cis too but maybe DemiBoy? I’d probably say He/Him but maybe some neos?? I’m not experienced in them though so I don’t really know any he might use (I’m also talking more about Brellie Ben than Sparrow Ben).

Viktor-

I absolutely adore Viktor. I know lots of people thought he was a Lesbian before season three but no, that’s not the case. He actually liked Leonard/Harold. Before he found out about all the things Leonard did he actually liked him. And when he was younger it’s confirmed (I’m pretty sure??) that Viktor had a crush on Five. Viktor doesn’t only like females, he actually does like guys. I absolutely think Viktor is Bisexual, possibly Pan. I think he could also be on the Aspectrum maybe? But he definitely doesn’t only like women. I also thought he might have been Non-Binary before he transitioned but now I absolutely like him as just a trans man. He/Him maybe He/They and possibly neos?? Again I don’t know much about neos so.
