Yes, Greece still exists, we didn't all die 2000 years ago. Yes, people speak Greek. You people are so fucking stupid for real. So many of you claim to love ancient shit but can't even acknowledge the actual living culture of the people whose mythology and classics you romanticize. You keep leaving annoying comments about how you just forget Greek people still exist, thinking you're being quirky because you love ancient stuff soooo much that you forgot about the people it came from. You think about it so little you don't even realize that an actual Greek person has to read this shit, making it clear how little you actually care about the culture beyond the romanticized (and westernized) mythology. Don't claim you love Greece, don't use our mythology anymore if you can't acknowledge that we're still around without making it about how little you think about us. It's mind boggling that you'd think a Greek person would read this and think you're anything but obnoxious. Explode.

After watching Anatomie d'une chute (Anatomy of a Fall) I can say that my toxic trait is that halfway throught the movie I was like "And what if she has killed that man?" and by the end of the movie I had progressed to "actually I think he deserved to be killed".

While I’m complaining I’ll say the hate on Luke Combs for the success of his Fast Car cover has always been aggressively annoying, given Tracey Chapman has openly stated she likes the cover and loves the paychecks it brings in AND she made an extremely rare appearance at the Grammys to perform it with him, so there are clearly no hard feelings there whatsoever. And yet people continue to speak over her and make a problem where there isn’t one.

"For the sake of this old man who loves you all" has to be the most annoying thing Viserys ever said. Why didn't anyone throw their wine at his face the moment he said it? This is a time when no one should be restrained by table manners.
Dracarys on Viserys.

Anyway, I think the worst thing Geoff Johns did to Hal's character is that he just made him boring. The fun thing about Hal is that he's the worst man to walk the earth. He's a trainwreck in the making. Every day he wakes up and thinks nothing and makes 20 awful decisions and messes up everything and goes to sleep content in a job well done and it's great. Hal is the Worst Man Ever™. He's a donkey in human form. By all means his personality and skillset makes him the perfect supervillain but he's a hero and he's imperfect and he claws himself back from the brink long after most people would've given up because that's who he is. That's at the core of his character. Even when he's below rock bottom, he never gives up, and god does he hit it, over and over again.
Johns just... erased all that complexity by making Hal the bestest greatest most precious lanterny lantern ever. Suddenly everyone loves him and treats parallax as just a 'hehe! Whoops!' and it sucks because if you take away the fact that Hal is a garbage human being he's just BORING. He's just a boring stereotypical stoic superhero. Who wants to read that! Who wants to read about Universe's Best Most Precious Greatest Man Gets Praised And Solves Every Problem And Is Never Wrong. Like at least when batman does it they try to give us a detective story. Usually it's not a good detective story but they at least try. Hal doesn't need to do detectiving. He can solve pretty much anything with the ring on his finger. He's invulnerable and powerful and perfect and let's be real, at this point he barely has a secret identity. There's nothing adding stakes to the story, not when Hal the best boy is here.
It's so fucking boring!! It's genuinely an injustice to his character. Hal's much more interesting when he makes every single bad decision, ever, and then has to dig himself out of the hole that he dug. That's someone I can root for. That's a character I can develop complex feelings about. If you just hand me the perfect being in creation I feel nothing. I'm already bored.

being daigo in january 2017 was probably the happiest month of his life because he just got out of jail Again for a crime he didnt commit Again and he's probably thinking how he has to keep running the tojo clan if he wants to respect kiryu even though hes """""""'gone""""""""" or whatever and then some bitch with the newspaper in his ear like 'the governor's trying to evict us what should we do' and i can only imagine the LOUDEST sigh of relief this man had to internalize as he began to flesh out his two-year plan then and there

Also while I'm at it:
Can people please remember that Death is her own person and the only Endless to have two miniseries, a short film, and a manga? She is not simply a satellite whose every waking thought and word and deed is built on the needs of her little brother. She is perfectly capable of making decisions and interacting with him without it being a 'Dream of the Endless is Poochie' factor.
At most any motivation she had with Hob and Dream was maybe that Dream might find a friend, but given Dream is Dream she probably didn't have a lot of faith in that and nor should she. I tend to think that it was about Hob's attitude to life and that she did this for her own reasons and about Hob himself, Dream given the chance sto sink or swim on his own because she's his sister, not his mommy.
Their sibling relationship definitely has its toxic moments. He puts her on a pedestal her actions and her own POV show is unwarranted and never tries to look for or to connect to the actual person or to consider there is one, preferring a goddess on a narrow and tall pedestal to his actual sibling. She is much more feckless than he is about communication and their major interactions show it, which is a further proof that the pedestal is not the actual person because the person he believes Death to be could not repeatedly fail to connect to her sibling like that.
This is true regardless, but at the the end of the day, Death is not Dream's fairy godmother, she is a deeply flawed and complex character in her own right, and her biggest flaws and her worst failures aren't directly related to Dream at all. And yes, I'm going to go for the nuclear option, if they cast Death as the 'hot' 17 year old with the bone pale look, would people still try to make her a mother archetype like they did the 35 year old Black woman or would they just treat her as fetish fuel and none of the deeper problems or characterization matter?

the stupid thing about deciding that being heterosexual makes you bad or annoying, is it means if you think someone is bad or annoying you start thinking they must be heterosexual. darling i promise you those things aren't linked. sexual orientation is the most morally neutral thing in the world it just Happens to you

I don't know how to properly word this, but. Peppino stole my heart and the way you draw him gives the impression of "If he hugged or held me I would feel so so safe and happy past the fact he would be very clammy". Thank you.
This is so CUTE thank YOU
