Keep seeing that post where OP starts like 'Thinking about...grieving the undead' and then adds on about like. Real life situations where people have not died but have left your life and you would have reason to grieve them.

All respect, that's an important concept, but that is not what I am thinking about when I read 'grieving the undead'.

#your brother is a vampire. he's sitting across the table from you chatting with your mother about her day #and he's dead and he's gone and he's never coming back. #he laughs the same and he talks the same but his arm is cold when he grabs you in a headlock and your dog won't be in the same room with hi #he'll still hang around watching TV with you and give you wedgies and make stupid jokes #but you can't tell him about the bullies at school anymore because this thing with your brother's face will just find them and kill them. #and not even stupid fucking Jason deserves what the monster in your dead brother's skin would do to him. #your brother is dead and lost and right there in arm's reach and gone forever with no hope of ever getting him back. #i'm sure there are corollaries to be written about like ghosts and zombies but this is the one i'm personally hung up on recently

downsizing seasons from 22 episodes to 13 to 8. describing miniseries as "8 hour movies". loudly declaring that shows with 20+ episodes per season cannot truly be good. complaining that "it couldve been a movie". complaining about filler episodes. complaining about bottle episodes. complaining about episodes that prioritize character over plot. fr i think y'all just dont like television

#text #personal #im complaining both abt people who make tv AND people who watch it #if u dont like long form storytelling just say that and watch/make movies instead my godddd

"I was thinking more like shoving Nancy into the nearest dumpster."

"is there a Greek god of disappointment?"

"Are you stalking me??"

"oh no. you’re coming with me sunshine."

"I'm sorry." *Annabeth proceeds to shove Percy into the water

PLEASE the one liners are killing me

#percy jackson #pjo tv show #im dying #pjo spoilers #pjo tv spoilers #i apologize to all my jily people #but this will be my personality for the next few hours. possibly days. #annabeth chase

becoming a furry nonhuman otherkin objectum genderweird relationship anarchy freak has made me immune to weird conservative whatifs. "what if people want to identify as animals" let them "what if people want to marry furniture" let them "what if-" is it hurting YOU? personally? or are you just so joyless that you can't conceive a living thinking person that isn't as repressed and deprived of whimsy as you

EDIT: Incest and pedophilia (including simulated pedophilia) don’t count because they do hurt people. I can’t believe I have to say this but things that hurt people aren’t part of the list of things that are weird but don’t hurt people.

#doc talks #proshippers don’t interact!!!!!!!! you’re gross #I always tell myself im above pro/anti shit and then YOU come in all like ‘yes! incest doesn’t hurt anyone!’ fucking what #top ten sentences said by a person that thinks real life incest is glamorous like the incest on tv

I would've worshipped Athena forever that way, in silence.

Then he came

And I felt like he saw me in a way l'd never been seen before.

#the parallel between medusa and annabeth has been driving me insane #they are literally the same person #exept percy wouldnt abandon annabeth the way poseidon abandoned medusa #the writing>>> #we have a whole 5 days till the next episode #ooh im climbing the walls #percabeth #percy jackson #annabeth chase #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson the lightning thief #pjo #pjo tv #percy series #pjo tv show #medusa #poseidon #walker scobell #leah sava jeffries #pjo hoo toa #riordanverse

Poseidon saying “when he knows where he belongs. And fate has revealed to him his true path”. Then the scene cuts to Percy & Annabeth, once again showing us that Annabeth (+grover) is his true path and that he belongs by her side.

#and the side of his loved ones because that’s who he is #he’s the person that would sacrifice the world to save them #like Athena said #percy jackson #annabeth chase #grover underwood #percabeth #leah jeffries #walker scobell #pjo tv show #percy jackon and the olympians

Not to talk about the watcher thing again as I’ve already kind of said my piece, but one of the most batshit insane parts of this whole unbelievable situation is that for some reason they decided that for some fucking reason the BEST time to announce this highly controversial decision was literally DAYS before they would be going on an international tour and having to face irate fans IN PERSON. Guys. What the hell. At least have the sensibility to announce a move that you HAD to have known would make people upset AFTER one of the few times you actually interact in person with your fanbase.

I hope you’re ready to investigate the Tower of London for ghosts, because I have a feeling the Londoners will be more than happy to acquaint you with the building later this week.

Insane move after insane move. Truly.

#watcher #watcher tv #as a person doing political communications literally one of the most basic rules is #‘if your boss is going to announce something controversial do NOT do it before an event where they have to interact with the public’ #you bury that shit on a Friday afternoon after the weekly news cycle is over and everyone has gone home for the weekend #you don’t announce that your official stance is to kick puppies before your fundraiser at the animal shelter #did the watcher team consult anyone at all about this decision? marketing or otherwise??

More thoughts on Alastor and why I don't think he's actually outdated:

I totally understand why many thoughts are going in the direction of him disliking Vox and TV as a whole because it is the technology that more or less replaced radio in the public eye, but I also think that we (so far, as of episode 4) have never really been given any evidence that he dislikes TV on principle rather than because he dislikes Vox and Vox is TV. Like, yes, he maintains a very dated aesthetic and does things like call TV "picture shows."

But also.

He throws around phrases like, "And now he's pissy, that's the tea!" and speaks with a permanent transatlantic accent (commonly used for TV and radio during his era but not actually naturally-occuring) at literally all times. This guy is not clueless - he's putting on airs. He knows modern lingo and he uses it comfortably and naturally.

There's a fanfic that, to save my life, I cannot remember the name of, where Angel Dust asks Alastor something to the tune of, "So what I'm getting out of this conversation is that you know it's called a cell phone and you just talk like you've never seen one on purpose?" and Alastor responds with, "Naturally!" that I think hit the nail on the head.

Especially when Alastor's anachronisms are so pointed. He calls Vox's TV show a "video podcast," which, 1) a podcast is a pretty modern term for him to know, originating at some point in the early 2000s and 2) deliberately reframes Vox's entire thing in terms of an audio format. It's not television. It's a podcast (a form of audio media that originated in the desire to download online radio broadcasts) with some video tacked on, he guesses.

Anyway, the tl;dr is that while I'm sure Alastor prefers his own era, I don't think Alastor is actually outdated, I think he's being fucking annoying on purpose.

Look at him. Look at his smug knifecat face. Bastardous. I love him.

ETA: The fanfic I mentioned is Anguish of the Marrow!

#and good for him!!!! #hazbin hotel #alastor #vox #hazbin hotel vox #hazbin hotel alastor #personal #meta #he very well might hate TV for TV's sake but also I really don't think he's actually stuck in the past #he's just being disrespectful lmao
