You ever just see people talk about the Percy Jackson books and know somewhere, deep in your heart, that none of these people have understood that this is a series made for middle schoolers. And that fandom will very frequently lie to them like, all the time. No, that character probably isn’t ooc, you’re just thinking of what the fandom turned them into. No, this book isn’t a horrible stain next to the others before it, literally all of them were like this. It’s Percy Jackson. It’s cheesy and occasionally makes a very questionable writing decision.
You gotta be in this for the long haul or jump ship my guys. Be cringe and free or be gone
#percy jackson#tsats#solangelo book#rick riordan#percy jackon and the olympians#pjo#the sun and the star#text post#yall are astounding me in ways i didnt know was possible god bless#also this was mostly written by mark not rick. like yes he signed off on it but still this is mostly mark#but its still Fine??? its fine?????? besties a book abt our favorite gays not being perfect is not the end of the world#did i cringe? hell yes. but was i free? tremendously. and i had a lot of fun i think#'bianca is in elysium but she was reincarnated??' yeah thats odd. anyway that scene was cute wasnt it#'everything is so on the nose' yeah its for middle schoolers and percy jackson isnt known for subtlety. its very rare#'will was ooc' weve literally barely gotten anything on him and no povs until now this IS establishing his character#'the puffs remove nicos whole trauma' no it doesnt. its a fantasy way to sort of explain that nicos trauma is now open instead of repressed#do i wish it wasnt sometimes explained as 'now the trauma is gone'? yes. but i think its moreso meant to be a way of nico dealing with them#he still HAS that trauma fellas. hes still going to be living with it. its just gonna be easier now. thats part of healing besties#also we dont know how these puffs are gonna act in the future so like. hush. shhhhhhhhhh. shut. it was literally never going to be perfect#its pjo. i love this series to death but. its pjo. it is. in fact. sometimes badly written. as it has been many times before in books before#and what else??????? it may not be written the greatest but its MY series that isnt written the greatest square up

you know the contrast between how Vergil is presented vs thinking too hard about Vergil’s story is pretty funny. Man’s reputation is this iconic badass, the pinnacle of what video game rivalries can be, the coolest guy to play as, the guy who breaks every game he’s added to,
and then you go to the story and like. man’s lost his free will and autonomy at 19 and then came back a fractured man half of which was a lovecraftian eye beast the other half of which was a chronically ill goth man. and then he reunites and hes in like his 40s now I believe but legit the last time he was actually in a game where he wasn’t being mind controlled when he was 19 which is both sad but also thinking about how this guy who’s considered one of the top badasses of gaming has never really lived life outside of being a teenager.
Anyways this is the secret comedic potential of post DMC5 for Vergil because not only has the human world probably changed a fair bit in terms of technology, if he’s sticking around Dante he’s gonna actually have to learn in depth how taxes and grocery shopping work. Amazing.

i wrote this as a joke because I wanted to strangle a guy watching tiktoks without headphones on the bus, but im genuinely disturbed that we've gotten to a point where convenience comes first. and it depresses me even more that its used to justify and monetize greed
#like we have so many ways of doing things that could help us in the long run but because we're told it requires more work we just cant#its too resource intensive. or maybe its too much to maintain. we have to overlook benefits so money can go into more important things#we teach each other to do things a certain way so it works for everyone but who was it convenient for first? what abt who it might hurt?#i have to wonder if the rules our current system uses is worth listening to or following if it doesnt have our best interests in mind. u an#me and the ppl around us.. would we be better off if i ate my meals knowing the person who grew it wanted to feed others the way they could#feed themselves? and that isnt to say we're going to be happy doing it but i guess satisfied that its helping someone instead of quietly#accepting that itll eventually go in the dumpster behind a grocery store because it stopped looking appetizing or it wasnt on sale anymore#what about building homes so we can shelter each other? what if we were satisfied with what we did because we knew it would be paid back#with kindness? isnt that what we evolved to do?? heal each others bones and tell stories and help each other??#why dont houses come with solar panels or generators unless we find a way to make people pay to use the sun? why is our pooled money used#to fund genocides instead of education and hospitals? whose interests and convenience came first when we started this??#i wont pretend to know the answer because i dont. but we all know we're miserable and im sorry to say that i cant see myself fighting#for a world that wont fight for me too. why do we work if we cant live from it?? why did they stop us from plucking more teeth from our#bosses until they could build more walls around themselves and then go back to underpaying us??#im so tired. i cant even imagine making it to age 70#yapping#vent

i think its so crazy the way having power as a shinobi always seems to be such a double edged sword on naruto. like on one hand, u need it, its a tool for survival and it earns u respect from ur peers. but on the other .. it can also lead to the exact opposite. if u have too much power it can lead (or contribute) to isolation and becoming ostracized from ur community bc it makes people fearful of u .. this is applicable to madara i think and to naruto and gaara as well. madara isnt ostracized only bc of his power, it is also his lack of skill in forming bonds bc he has trust problems but his power is a major contributing factor. he is feared for his power (but also admired) and the more he gets isolated, the more he starts building his own identity around it as well and starts thinking its the only thing valuable abt himself. naruto as well is feared for his power as a jinchuuriki even tho he is also a bit of a special case since its only the grownups that know abt this so his peers ... they ostracize him for the opposite thing. he's a failure at the academy and a difficult learner so he gets no respect. it is only when he starts gaining more power (or controlling it better) and using it for the sake of the village that he gets everyone's respect and acknowledgement. he's a hero even all of a sudden. but gaara is an even more extreme case. gaara is also a jinchuuriki and he's ostracized for it to such an extent that he does not get to build bonds at all and in a bit similar fashion to madara starts self-identifying only over his power. both him and madara end up consumed by their power but while madara decides to use it for the sake of saving the world, gaara just fully decides to just live for himself, fight for himself and love only himself ... madara also becomes a bit self-absorbed but its not something he does purposefully i think. gaara just goes, well, everyone fears me and despises me anyway, so i might as well give them a reason. my only purpose in this world is to kill ... i have no other reason to live. i forgot where i was going with this but .. something something isolation, objectification and dehumanization from others on account of ur power and it leads to the person internalizing it and seeing themselves also as either below or above being human .. madara perceives himself to be above it, he develops a god complex and comes to think that he is the messiah who will solve the world's problems (with power) and gaara seems to perceive himself to be beneath it .. as a tool and a servant. both to his village and to the bloodthirsty voices he hears in his head.
#gaara#madara#naruto#posts#.. had a whole other chunk of text here that i deleted bc i thought it wasnt that relevant to the topic of thr post#but i still think its interesting so i'll put it in here#when i said gaara hears voices .. i was going to say mdr doesnt but then realized that thats not true? mdr also hears voices#presumably. he heard kuro zetsu speak to him in his head during their first (well majority actually) time that they spent together#in the cave. mdr seperates him from himself when he gives him to obt. and he seems to believe that to have been the moment of his creation#anyways but i think its so interesting how both him and gaara have a seperate identity with them that benefits from this?#they benefit from their corruption. the ichibi benefits from gaara's bloodlust and hatred and kuro zetsu benefits from mdr's power lust#and they both drive them to further pursue it ... there is something in there i think. something abt how experiencing isolation etc#will make u susceptible to ill-natured manipulation or influence. from the outside#gaara apparently can handle having to live with shukaku after he gains his first bond (naruto). and he isnt susceptible to it anymore#mdr wouldnt have gone down his path either if his bond w hsrm hadnt fallen apart#naruto is saved bc he does not give up on trying to find bonds. putting aside how it kinda sucks for him to have to prove his worth#to his village first. it is ultimately abt him never giving up. always trying ... and eventually finding the right people#to bond with#mdr never finds this up until the end of his life ... and its the reason he cant find his peace ever before#but i also think its interesting how both kuro zetsu and the ichibi .. i mean they dont outright manipulate their targets#theyre moreso just feeding into whats already there .. its why mdr/zetsu work great together narratively i think#but it also applies to gaara as well. gaara wants to shed blood bc he wants to share the same kind of pain he has experienced#just like mdr wants to gain power/become god cuz he longs for control and is fearful of depending on others#and both the ichibi and kuro zetsu want that as well. the ichibi hates how the humans have treated him. he hates being confined to#a jinchuuriki's body. he wants to be free. and if he cannot be free he will use his host to go punish the humans who did that to him#and kuro zetsu well ... he wants to be powerful i guess. but he moreso wants mdr to think that he is#so that he can become host to kaguya who will explode the fucking shit out of him#there's more even .... gaara seeing himself as a tool to others since he believes the voice to be his mother's .. and mdr seeing himself#at the center of everything cuz he thinks that the voice is his own. mdr bc of this being even more self-centered#but then also more altruistic. bc he's the savior. running out of tags here unfortunately but yeah .. much to think about

just listened to the lost boys novelization and some of my highlights include: sam biting michael being the reason theyre running around the house, sam quoting bruce when they get to the boardwalk because hes overdressed ("i wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face"), high michael staring at dwayne skateboarding and wondering when marko would come with the food (real), david making a move on michael to be inturrupted by marko with the food, sam tearing off a leaf of grandpas marijuana and trying to smoke it, star saying the boys are her family multiple times, star biting michaels neck when theyre making out multiple times, david catching michael after he falls off the bridge, paul trying to cheer up star, and michael saying david looks like the lord of the vampires when he first sees him in the final battle

you know what fuck it c!sausage loved the roseblings so much and it came out most often in his protectiveness. in one episode fwhip runs to him after Xornoth makes an appearance and hides behind him, and Sausage makes a point to shout and yell at the demon and keeps repeating ‘i’ve got this!’ ‘nothing to be scared of!’ and doesn’t tease him for being afraid.
“we’re fine, we’re fine, we’ve got this!— … just stay in here, stay here, don’t worry, I got this!”
later on in another episode gem runs to him after seeing the demon and even /with/ her concerns that he’s somehow entangled in all of this, she asks that he come back to her kingdom and check that its safe, and that he holds her hand too. he agrees Wholeheartedly, not a single moment of judgement, and when theres OBVIOUS HORROR happening, he denies everything that’s happening and promises gem that everything is okay
“Yeah it’s fine Gem, don’t worry about it!”
“I’m worrying about it!”
“Nah, I’ll protect you.”

RE: the pope saying priests can bless gay couples
(from an ex-homeschooled ex-Catholic apologetics-trained queer)
Reaction 1: wow I can’t believe he even dared to TRY saying that in the modern Church, especially after the shit that’s gone down with the recent synod
Reaction 2: how the FUCK?? Does that work with the Catechism’s pretty darn specific language about being careful to not even slightly condone people choosing to live in a homosexual lifestyle?
Reaction 3: oh my god the various schismatic groups are going to lose their shit and this will be VERY interesting. “Pope Francis isn’t a legitimate pope he’s a plant influenced by Satan blah blah blah. not MY pope” etc. get fucked lmao. die mad. you might finally cause enough ruckus to get officially excommunicated and join SSPX in war-of-attrition limbo! you already basically divorce yourself from the slightly more normal devout Catholic crowds because of how you act anyway lol
Reaction 4: this is going to shred the USCCB and all the current devout practicing Roman Catholics in the U.S. my god this’ll be interesting.
Reaction 5: I am so glad I no longer have to hear EWTN and Catholic Answers every day now. I cannot imagine how much Catholic Fox News is going to focus on this in coming days and months
my main thoughts:
I genuinely don’t understand how this is possible when the official Church doctrine still describes “same-sex attraction” as a “disorder” of “Natural Law” and clearly states that while people who bear the cross of being queer can be faithful Catholics, they have to be chaste and never act on their desires, and that the homosexual lifestyle and acts are not allowed for Catholics and cannot be condoned??
Blessing queer unions would sure fall under the category of “could be viewed as at least partially condoning homosexual lifestyles”.
I can’t wait to hear the reasoning behind this one. It’s sure going to give nuclear firepower to the “Francis isn’t a legitimate pope, he’s a plant from the Satan-influenced Jesuits and leading the Church astray” near-schism crowd!
