#not a criticism of the dick jokes

[restlesshush]

Like the thing about Sera Gamble is she takes over the “monster hunting as a veneer for working through personal problems” show and is like “oh I know! The thing people like about this show is the monster hunting! How about I get rid of all the side characters – all that matters is two brothers in their car”. And that’s how you get 7x02 (not written by her but she’s the reason it exists) which is “oh yeah you remember how our former friend is a villain now and how potentially meaty a concept that is? Well he’s exploded in a lake because he was filled with cannibalistic goo monsters who are now in the water supply but don’t worry!! They’ve decided for some reason that our protagonists are important so they’ll be the villains now instead, which is what matters”. And it’s also how you get a season finale like 7x23 where Dean’s journey is 1) resigning himself to just the endless unsatisfying slog that is hunting/life and 2) getting Cas to knuckle under and join the fight; Sam’s journey is ????; and Cas’s journey is being afraid of fighting / making mistakes, having people be mean to him about it and then eventually capitulating when Dean seems mildly nice. Bobby arguably has the best conclusion by going out on his own terms without ‘becoming vengeful’ – but more than anything that’s tying up a loose thread from the season rather than ending on a satisfying beat for the character, otherwise you’d think you’d give him a moment of catharsis helping to take out Dick Roman, and have him pass on there. Like, we’re not telling interesting stories about these characters as people, we’re just wrapping up the leviathan arc! And this is because Sera Gamble does not think her job as showrunner is to deliver a finale with compelling emotional threads running through it – she thinks all that matters is the monster fighting, and the extent to which the characters can serve it (along with a healthy amount of dick jokes of course)

I'm so tired of people playing Sorcerers and getting upset when Gale clarifies they needed someone studied in magic and being like "But I am sooo much better than a wizard, I was born with it!"

Girl, you might be *check notes* magic incarnate but that means absolutely nothing when he is looking for an academic

"But I was born good at magic!"

Okay, and I was born a native Italian speaker, however if an academic asked me if I have studied Italian I would have to say no, because academically I have not. I don't know a single italian linguist. I don't know how we went from indio european to latin to Italian. I don't even know why sardo is a language and bergamasco is a dialect. I forgot all the grammar I had to learn. Sometimes I talk to Tuscans and I do not understand them. it's almost like those are two entirely different things

#bg3 #gale #l also play sorcerers btw. I love them #I like that they can be arrogant dicks #but it's entirely on THEM not on gale asking if you are a fellow magic academic #also like you are born talented. that is not going anywhere without putting some effort in #also like gale is a former Chosen of Mystra. with all due respect who are you #i know some people just have no idea of what it is to study things academically but like #imagine if he was asking about english lit and you went 'but i am english' okay buddy so i was thinking about a structuralist reading of ac #bg3 fandom critical #this is a minor thing but it keeps getting on my nerves #but I can get all the jokes in boris effortlessy! okay you still are not going to the academia della crusca any day soon #chiedo scusa a tutti i toscani #also people saying he is jealous...girl of what. but that's a different post. (no but seriously)

#idk if somewone made something like that already #feel free to add more #it's just a joke btw #i'm not criticizing or shaming or attacking anyone okie #do whatever you want and like whatever you like! #however not all headcanons are created equally... #batman #batfam #batfamily #jason todd #red hood #dick grayson #nightwing #tim drake #robin #red robin #jean paul valley #damian wayne #fanon vs canon #ah yes jason todd... the everything character! #jason todd headcanons #jason todd headcanon #batboys

“your potential is vast and frightening.. let’s just say that i am glad you’re at orym’s side” :)

not at OUR side, not at the GOOD side, not at the RIGHT side………………….. orym’s side. let’s unpack that :3

#commuting to the tin hat idea that taliesin has bribed matt off screen to be his wingman in his campaign crossing quest to romance a liam pc #JOKING but also canon that keyleth is trying to get her savior blade some titan dick GOODNIGHT #ashrym #critical role #cr3 spoilers #bells hells #im paraphrasing most of that quote bc watched last night but the ‘at oryms side’ bit is VERBATIM bitch

[seal-berry]

another semi prominent twitter artist has weighed in on hazbin and i gotta say my least favorite hazbin take ever is "angel dust is the only salvageable character but i only like him when hes not saying swears and sex jokes" because its like. oh you mean the sex jokes he specifically uses as a litmus test for judgy assholes that you wouldve just failed?

#angel dust #hazbin hotel #very i support survivors but only those who cope in ways i like #people who hate swearing and sex jokes in media i will never make anything for you #i think the crits from the uwu types are the worst because this criticism boils down to #how DARE you depict a hypersexual and crass abuse survivor #noooo dont make the gay character make sex jokes we need to be pureeeee #people rly dont get his character which isnt surprising but its funny to see them pull the “baby please this isnt the real you” #baby please stop making popsicle dick jokes youre limiting how much i can view you as a perfect victim!!!

Daphne's Handwaved Trauma

Ok so I'll be the first to admit I don't like Daphne, but I absolutely HATED this panel.

Why does she look so happy?? Daphne turning into a tree in LO was (at least to me) a tribute to all the women in Greek mythology. The women who couldn't trust the ground beneath them, a flower or even gold coins! It was preferable to be a TREE rather then be r*ped. Daphne's smile just ruins all the emotional weight the panel could've happened.

#anti lore olympus #lore olympus criticism #lore olympus critical #tw: rape mention #I kind of want to do an essay on how rape is treated in LO #and more broadly the morality of LO #like theres just a lot of favoritism #Like Persephone is terrified of Apollo #And daphne is scared for her life here!! #Yet she cant even be shown as scared #And all the jokes about nymph homewreckers #and Posedion and Apollo looking for mortal women #ZEUS COERCING APHRODITE TO SEX #and i like zeus but that was just so shitty #and all the comments were so bad #they were saying shit like “ wow shes a good mom shell suck a dick for her son hahaha” #but only persephones trauma matters #and that doesnt really matter either?? #Hades trauma is probably the most well treated #as hes the emo sad boi #but trauma in general is disrespected #the most infuriating example would probably be Zeus and Metis #which was meant to be a joke #but its so disgusting when you think about it?? #Metis is as old as Zeus's DAD #He was at most 17!!! #and heras situation is bad too #but a little better #i probs shouldn't except so much from a comic that #romanticizes as relationship between a 3 feet 19 year old naïve sheltered village girl and a

spn s1 holds almost the exact same appeal that saw (2004) does. if you were unaware

#low-budget. bloody. charmingly bad jokes. unintentionally super gay. soundtrack makes ur dick hard #it's abt.... sam and dean and john all clawed up by the shadow spirits parting ways after a season spent circling each other #faith healer roy le grange's tent and ''god save us from half the people who think they're doing god's work'' #dean saying ''that's my boy'' after sam tells him he stole a car to come rescue him #john being answered to with ''yes sir'' #luther the vampire saying ''why can't you people just leave us alone'' #dean telling sam over the phone that he's right to want his own life and that he's proud of him for standing up to john #like critically speaking s1 is just okay to me (esp compared to the standout that is s2) but it is also very dear to my heart #spn

I don't overhate the game like most people. I'll openly acknowledge it isn't perfect. Still, I also know it was never meant to be a part of Arkham, and thinking like every game associated with Batman needs to be just like whatever your favorite Arkham game is is just silly.

Like Dick's Romani heritage being mostly contained in a one-liner (or maybe more if I missed some) or even the way they slightly mislead people to think Barbara is magically healed (she's actually not). There are things they could've done more with, but I knew going into it it wasn't going to be perfect, and I'm not wasting my anger.

#I am assuming/hoping that the barbara point did come from the criticism #so maybe they threw in the back brace/reinforcement thing and that scene with alfred idk #but this is me as someone who is disabled and knows people who have gone through physical therapy with similar injuries #and also knowing people who are okay with barbara gordon's injury not being the way that the killing joke portrays them #I also enjoy that it wasn't actually a magical recovery #gotham knights #gotham knights game #batfam #dick grayson #also just more about dick it honestly could've been more with the romani stuff #barbara gordon #btw if you come to stir the pot on this post I literally don't care #I only accept actual nuanced criticism #it's also slightly annoying how easily dialogue can be missed in this game #like I open a menu while someone's talking and it's gone forever

clark being shy and insecure about his very big sloppy alien schlong vs bruce being cocky (pun intended) about his small dick. send post.
