#far from it

[leandra-winchester]

Gonna black list the word "Hamster Wheel".

If Buddie never goes canon and Buck, in season 15 of the show, is happily married (to Tommy, or someone else who's well written and matches beautifully with him), adopted a kid, bought a house, has a dog and cat, slowly but surely dealt with all his trauma and anxieties, is progressing in his career and taking on new responsibilities, and has healthy and loving relationships to friends and family outside of work - the hardcore Buddie stans: "Nope, he's still on that damn hamster wheel. It ain't good if it isn't Eddie."

#Evan Buckley #911 #Tommy Kinard #FirePilot #I mean I'm not saying buddie isn't or shouldn't happen #far from it #but you all are being so petty about this it's embarrassing #you can't even examine the story objectively #no you must interpret everything to fit your own narrow agenda #lame #kinley #tevan #bucktommy

you know what hill i'll die on? terzo is not the sluttiest emeritus

I mean sure, he's the most dramatic and the most outspoken about sex, and he gave us Mummy Dust which is its own discussion-- but I sincerely don't see him, in his private life, being so promiscuous. Like out of all of them, I'm the most certain Terzo would be either monogamous or have a few regular partners at most, but I don't think he'd be big on casual flings. Frankly I don't even see him having sex that much at this point, he seems more attached to it as a concept than an actual activity he regularly engages in.

You know who's the inverse of that, though? The one Tobias himself calls a pervert? Secondo. There's your whore. I know he looks big and mean and authoritary but let's be honest, half of Infestissumam is about ritual sex and he's out in Vegas on the regular with more women than he can reliably satisfy. He says it himself that he became Papa because "he likes a sexy beat". THERE'S THE EMERITUS WHORE, AND I'M CERTAIN OF IT

#the band ghost #i'm not trying to be like. puritanical by saying this #far from it #it's just like #i feel terzo is often stereotyped as hypersexual #and i feel like that's because he's for lack of a better word the most queer-coded papa #i just don't think he should be THE slutty emeritus yknow? because when i think about him i think of other things #he's the greatest showman among all of them and the way he grew disillusioned with the world is tragic #he's the only one (so far) to have gotten a grammy #he's the first to treat his ghouls like proper friends #the only time we see sister imperator actually afraid is when he shows up #like there's SO MUCH and obviously i'm not saying or even thinking that a character's sexuality is less important than other features #all the papas encourage a celebration of sexuality #i'm just saying i feel like people stop at that. and don't look at terzo any deeper #and that's tragic because he's a HELL of a character #and when you look at the bigger picture i'm sorry but i just can't think he fucks as much as secondo. sorry #give mr worldwide the recognition he deserves ok #and also give terzo proper characterization!!

Timelapse for this painting I posted

#process #video #the song is the coppice by wickerbird #I know it should be the opposite but I feel very weird posting time lapses and sketches with all the a/i bullshit #cuz I feel like I’m inadvertently contributing to these asshats learning how to duplicate the sketches and brush strokes and shit #like showing how it’s done #but I’m not gonna stop sharing #cuz I love exchanging knowledge and experience with people who are learning to paint #my skills are not 100% technically sound or perfect #far from it #but I learned something from someone else and it’s my turn to pass it along and try and knock down the fear of making something #anyways I drew a horse and some grass

time to start gatekeeping gen v twitter from insufferable white women.

Yes I know that Elonistan wouldn’t know a good take if it gave them a hard, wet kiss on the mouth and it’s my own damn fault for being annoyed but still…

If you thought Marie and Jordan weren’t well handled queer rep then what the hell makes you think Marie and Cate will magically be superior? It’s the same writers you dumbasses 🤦🏾‍♀️

#limoreau #marie x jordan #mariejordan #gen v #is the notion that mascjordan got more screentime even true? because i really think it was about even #and if ppl didn’t think kissing/sex was the only way to show romantic development then they’d see femjordan and marie got plenty #the morning after scene? #the tik tok? (which actually did include a kiss) #jordan sitting on the corner of marie’s bed giving heart eyes? #it wasn't nothing #far from it #can y’all just watch yj and leave us the hell alone? #*edit* removed the screenshots because i rethought posting negativity in the limoreau tag #but they’re right there for anyone to see if you’re curious

To this day these are the only posts I’ve made that ever ended up trending (??? didn’t even know that was possible) and like… why? What kind of soulmate shit was this?

So I'm currently reading the memoir of Felix Yusupov (the guy who killed Rasputin) and I cannot put into words the emotional whiplash this sentence gave me-

#this isn't even in the top 10 unhinged things in this book #far from it #this is probably the only historical memoir I've read that actually made me laugh out loud #felix yusupov #lost splendor #russian history

Did Monty get over his crush on Y/Ngineer? Is that why his string showed up?

Nah, but he’ll get over it eventually. His string showed up eventually because the glamrock band was reunited, and it was the right time!

#ask #so(u)l spoilers #no signs will show up unless it’s the perfect time #it may not FEEL like the perfect time #far from it #but it always is

One thing that bothers me about Discovery is that it takes the grimmest possible view of Vulcan culture in general and Spock's family in particular, in ways that I don't think are justified by prior Star Trek series.

On the one hand, I think there's absolutely room in the Star Trek canon to portray a flawed, xenophobic Vulcan society. It's right there in front of you, starting in the original series. We all know that Spock grew up being bullied for being half human and not Vulcan enough. Dr. Miranda Jones is a human who studied on Vulcan and also has a complex about not being Vulcan enough (S3.E5 "Is there in Truth No Beauty?"). The inherent hypocrisy of Vulcans proclaiming that they value "infinite diversity in infinite combinations" while treating atypical members of their society poorly is absolutely worth exploring.

On the other hand, Discovery takes the portrayal of Vulcan callousness to the absolute extreme. Why on earth would Michael and her Vulcan classmates be contained in isolated orbs at school, practicing rapid-fire rote memorization? Vulcans aren't just computers who spit out facts and figures; that's a stereotype other species apply to them. Vulcans like to philosophize, to debate. Vulcans sincerely value the arts, music in particular. Spock even refers to dances that young Vulcans are taught in preschool (S3.E14 "Whom Gods Destroy"). None of those things are compatible with an education style that keeps kids isolated and interacting with no one, neither peers nor teachers.

Further, I don't for a second believe that Sarek would squash and deny Spock and Amanda their humanity. Yes, he has a complex about it and insists consistently that Spock is a Vulcan and must be treated as a Vulcan and yadda yadda yadda. BUT. Though he and Amanda choose to raise Spock on Vulcan ideals, Sarek is someone who clearly values human ways. He likes when Amanda and Perrin show him their human affection. He values human music, and is moved by it! And Spock, whose education was heavily influenced by Sarek, is fully versed in human history and literature. Often more so than the full, raised-on-Earth humans he serves with. He has read Byron and Shakespeare. He has detailed knowledge of wars, of governments, of even niche gunfights in the ancient American frontier (S3.E6 "Spectre of the Gun"). Sarek also relies without question on Spock's human friends to save his son's life, entrusting them with the most intimate of Vulcan rituals after assuming that Spock had already done the same. And their big father-son conflict? Sarek wants his son, of whom he is very proud, to contribute his talents to Vulcan society via the Vulcan Science Academy and stay close to home rather than going off into space and joining an organization with more military power than Sarek approves of. That's it.

All that is to say, there's no damn way that Sarek would "forbid" Amanda from exposing Spock to human literature and ideas. She would have read Alice in Wonderland to both her kids and he would have pretended not to be interested from another room while secretly being gripped by the story.

#star trek #star trek tos #star trek discovery #listen sarek is not a perfect parent #far from it #it's absolutely true that he values vulcan ideals over human ones #and prioritizes spock's vulcan side over his human one #and holds spock to impossible standards and gives him an identity complex #HOWEVER #a) sarek believes that humans and vulcans can and should coexist and values humanity in his personal and professional life #b) amanda ALSO chooses to raise spock as vulcan! she's not an oppressed wilting flower! #she tells kirk in S2.E10 “Journey to Babel” that the vulcan way is “a better way than ours” #yes she gets frustrated with spock for not showing human emotion but that is a consequence of HER parenting as well as sarek's

percy weasley and regulus black are similar characters and it is not a crime to point that out

as someone who likes both characters, may I present:

- reserved

- fucked up and owned up

- both astutely academic.

- younger brother syndrome/complex familial relationships: both sirius and ron re: their brothers have a similar perspectives on them in DH (wdym sirius was dead? fake news): ‘i hate you but I still miss you like a little kid’, which is imo consequently how harry views them

anyway harry compared regulus to percy simply because they exhibit the same desire to not be bothered by their families in their rooms, which is valid.

#percy weasley #regulus black #I think they are not the same characters #far from it #but they do share visible similarities

Went down the recolor road but now I'm thinking I should redo this chibi style 🤔

#literally so tired #jalen hurts #philidelphia eagles #eagles #baker mayfield #tampa bay buccaneers #tampa #nfl #sports #football #national football league #Superbowl #nfl playoffs #meme #art #kind of not rlly #far from it #everyday they ask me where the ass photo is and i dont have it im working on my Trevor Lawrence waffle house fanfic its going so bad #replaced the image cause the saturated one like. scrubbed up everything

[jinmukangwrites]

Am I the only one who genuinely thinks that if main character is some sort of wanted criminal, they HAVE to get captured at SOME POINT even for a terrifying moment? Like it doesn't matter how good they are, it doesn't matter if it's the government or some bounty hunters or a betrayal of someone they trusted, they HAVE to get captured, just once, just for a moment. It's always so exciting when it happens idk

#not to say that if the character never gets captured its not good story telling #far from it #idk its a personal preference i think #if a character is wanted alive then not getting captured is a HUGE PART of their day to day life #and when they're finally captured or arrested it's just so good #angst drama character development #theyre completely different people after they escape because now they know their own mortality #jin rambles #delete later

The Great Cyber War was better, if a bit long-winded. I’d completely forgotten about the emotional Revenge Cybermen, goodness knows how.

But the end… whu-huh?

#i’m not complaining #far from it #i might be able to stand audacity a bit better if this is indeed going to be the set-up #sfs listens to big finish
