You've been writing about vampires eh... can I ask is there an aspect about vampires that you wish was portrayed more across media, be it televised or literature?
Of course, if there is it's probably included in what ever you're writing, so if you can't answer this because it may be a spoiler, that's fine :)
ohohohohohoho this is a fun question.
i actually talked abt this not too long ago with someone else, but i really wish more vampire media would focus on the Hunger of it. obviously modern vampire stories are a hit or miss especially if it's a romance (twilight did irreparable damage to that subgenre) but i just want my vampires to be nasty and hungry and i want to see them struggle with it.
what i've been writing is a mix of things but one of the main characters is a freshly turned vampire, and she doesn't really understand what's happening to her or how she got here, so a big part of the narrative is her trying to remember what it was like to be human as well as coping with how she has to live now and the violent things she's done. her (human) partner is trying to salvage their relationship while going through all of this as well, and she's also being forced to do terrible things to protect her girlfriend and keep them together. the third character is one that's outside of them and she's older and been around longer and she's just really lonely, and she is also doing (you guessed it) terrible things in an attempt to feel a part of something and someone else.
i don't like vampires being perfect and beautiful and hundreds of years old, i want them to be young and messy and stupid! also STOP making confederate vampires what the hell is wrong with you...
i also wish people would stop trying to be "too cool" for vampires. i don't mind people changing certain parts of vampire lore (i've changed some things myself) but i really dislike the disdain some people seem to have for classic vampires. why are you writing about vampires if you don't even like them or think they're silly! i feel like this can be applied more generally to a lot of things these days, though, there's definitely this fear of being "cringe" permeating everything and people seem to only enjoy a lot of stuff "ironically" and i just don't get that.... anyways i want vampires to explode in sunlight again

hey gamers: ive currently been craving to watch some cartoons so i can get invested in more fandoms (old and new cartoons) though i cant find any good recs, so feel free to reply with some 👍
note: i wont watch a lot of adult swim shows or animes since they arent really my cup of tea as of late, nor will i watch anything that features a bunch of horror-related themes (i also cant watch dhmis due to the derealizing themes present.)

Do you recommend for all mankind? What platform is it on?
it depends! if you like star trek ds9 and battlestar galactica or the cold war or alternate history stories you might like it! that said tho, it's not structured like any other show i've seen before, and the constant time jumps can be jarring. i found the first season a little slow but by the second season i was really into it but i can totally see why some people just couldn't get into it at all! i don’t tend to recommend shows to people whose taste i don’t know tho tbh so it’s hard to say 🤷🏼♀️ anyway it's on apple tv+

No because I was rewatching nimona ofc and it just hit me full in the face that the director did not mean what we thought she meant when she said this.
In the beginning when, before the knighting, she says this to Bal, she's already rigged his sword, she means that the kingdom will see him as a villain, as someone who doesn't belong and who should never have been a knight. ShE'S TRYING TO SAY THAT YOU DONT BELONG AND I KNOW IT AND NOW THE KINGDOM WILL KNOW IT YOU FU-
Like i k this is probably obvious and I'm an idiot for not noticing before but oh god it just hit me so hard-
This re-watch is killing me and I am dying dying from holding back I want to talk TALK ABput this movie it's so GOod but I keep telling my friends to watch it and I have always given fabulous recommendations and yet they don't listen ugh
