#they’re entitled

[nyaagolor]

Something I adore about ace attorney villains is how often they don’t have deep motivations. Manfred, Engarde, Kristoph… there’s no deeper meaning, no resounding tragic past or lofty justification for any of it— they’re just callous, petty human beings. It makes the tragedy of their crimes hit that much harder because when the people they hurt look back at it, ask themselves why people had to die, why lives how to be ruined, there’s nothing there. There was no reason, there’s nothing to untangle— just a couple of guys who would do anything to get what they thought they deserved

#ace attorney #manfred Von karma #Matt engarde #kristoph gavin #the entitlement of it all is so juicy. they killed because they wanted to. because they wouldn’t let others get in the way. #because they wanted an iron grip on things they thought they were owed. #and they’re my three weed smoking girlfriends. yippee #mod vex

Every critique I see of pjotv, I have to hold myself back from unleashing a 5000 word essay on why they’re wrong.

#everyone’s entitled to their own opinions but they’re also wrong! #we have a total of three episodes out right now and y’all are talking about things that need time to develop 💀💀 #like why are we jumping the gun here #and also the pacing issues is just you looking at it through a book lens because from a non-book readers’ lens it’s fine! #percy jackson and the olympians #percy jackson #pjotv #pjo series #pjo disney+

I desperately want to live in the fantasy world that people who go on about “the importance of representing healthy platonic male-male friendship in media” live in. clearly, these people live in a world where gay romances are super common in media, and platonic male friendships are extremely rare. They certainly don’t live in our world, where it feels like the majority of all media centers on platonic friendships between men, or het romances. I’d love to live in their bizarre little world where queer romances are so common

#this is a subtweet about those posts that routinely go viral in the lotr fandom #I never want to see another post about how no homo is a progressive political statement XD #You can just not ship something. it’s fine #you really don’t need to morally justify your preferences #you do not need need to morally justify your disgust or repulsion #you can just feel it #everyone is entitled to their petty fandom opinions #I don’t ship a lot of things too!!! XD #why is the lotr fandom so silly (its because it’s infested with conservatives) #(and people easily fall for conservative talking points when they’re dressed up in faux progressive language)

I think what I hate most about the Teen Wolf movie is that there were at least three instances where Scoot was parenting Eli and basically stealing formative moments from Derek in an attempt to endear the audience to an Eli and Scoot relationship and prime us to accept Scoot adopting Eli….

Crime #1: growling in Eli’s face to get him to transform??? What dude? How does that even work when Eli faints at the sight of a transformation? And if it’s that easy then Eli should have transformed anytime Derek flashed his eyes. It’s so messed up because Derek would have LOVED to be there for his first transformation, even just partial, but it was ripped from him bc Scoot wanted to be Mr. Alpha badass.

And no, I don’t think Derek guiding Eli through his first beta shift makes it better because Derek should have had the opportunity to guide him from his very first shift and help him maintain that shift so he could do it at will.

And don’t try to tell me it was necessary because super strong and fast alpha wolves should be able to carry fifteen year old scrawny boys.

And super strong and fast alpha werewolves should be able to outrun their half dead ex girlfriend without breaking a sweat.

And don’t get me started on Derek being injured. Actually I will get started!

when you consider Derek was originally hurt bc Scoot didn’t just go after Allison with his fast werewolf speed or sniff her out with his super werewolf nose tells you all you need to know about Scoot and his connection to his werewolf. he won’t be a great wolf teacher BECAUSE HE DOESNT KNOW SHIT. And I am blaming him (for the reasons above) for Derek being injured in the first place, so Scott set the whole stealing Eli’s first transformation from Derek thing into motion.

Crime #2: Derek is basically begging Eli to practice with him, but Scoot is the one who gets to play with Eli?? No way. That’s stupid. I reject it

Crime #3: DEREK DIDNT GET TO WATCH ELI PLAY OR MAKE THE WINNING SHOT??? After he convinced coach to give him some time on the field?? Blasphemous.

ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING he was only prevented from doing so bc of some stupid shit that didn’t even really involve him?? Like none of that shit was his business???

It’s like Jeff is trying to make Derek seem like a bad parent who doesn’t know how to help his own son and Scoot is a natural born parenting genius. He posits all these moments of good parenting but gifts them to Scoot instead of Derek. Derek is trying and trying and instead of having even one scene where Derek and Eli aren’t being standoffish and frustrated, Jeffery attempts to give us some easy as pie, natural, buddy-buddy relationship with Scoot and Eli.

we were given crumbs for Derek and Eli’s relationship and it’s sick, really.

And I will never forgive Scoot for being tongue deep with Allison THE MOMENT Derek is BURNED TO DEATH (a crime punishable by life in prison)and RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIS GRIEVING SON (have some class! You’re thirty or whatever!)

There are so many more crimes in this movie but I’m trying not to remember the movie at all, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#teen wolf the movie #teen wolf spoilers #girl when I say #fuck jeff davis #I mean he can choke #and why did Allison feel entitled to adopt the son of the man she stabbed and shot through the neck some 24 hours before he died #did Derek even get a chance to say he loves his son before he was the sacrificial lamb? #because I don’t think he did #anti scott mccall #listen I don’t go out of my way to hate that guy #but it’s so very easy to hate that bland man #also!! why did every jog softly instead of genuinely run and then get surprised when they’re caught? #dearest you were even moving of course you got caught #leelee gets real #and don’t get me started on the pacing #it was fucking terrible and I couldn’t tell if we were in the same day or not #Derek Hale #eli stilinski hale

I cannot express to you people how much I want to see Stede trip and faceplant into the romantic hero trope. I want that man backlit by a sunset, shirt billowing in the wind, confidence and love coming off him in waves, etc. I want him to woo the shit out of Ed all over again simply by existing and maybe by yelling sonnets at him from the brig after Ed tosses him in there so he can bite his knuckles in lust in peace.

#obviously they’re gonna get back together #Ed is just entitled to lock Stede up for being a jackass for a little while #please have a conversation boooooooys #and then please make out passionately and go on fun adventures #our flag means death #ofmd

-LIVE-BLOGGED THOUGHTS ON TODAY’S STREAM-

FIRST OFF - one little thing that I want to say:

(This is about the characters, obviously.)

I am totally on Bad’s side about locking his base down and not letting anyone in. If he wants to do that, there’s nothing wrong with it. I get why Forever and Baghera might be upset but holy shit it’s his house. And also: Trust is always gifted, never owed. The fact that he’s letting them inside his base at all is a privilege that very few people on the server have and I don’t think they realize that.

Yes, maybe they trust him with everything but that’s their decision and Bad isn’t somehow required to reciprocate equally as they see fit. I’d even argue he is reciprocating equally - but his idea of “I trust you as much as I possibly can” is just different from theirs.

I saw a lot of people telling Bad in chat that Baghera had a point but like - trust is not really a transaction like that, or at least it shouldn’t be - trust is something you earn. Forever and Baghera have earned more of Bad’s trust than any other people on the server but that doesn’t mean they’re entitled to anything he doesn’t feel comfortable sharing with them if it doesn’t concern them. Especially if it’s his LITERAL ACTUAL TOP-SECRET PRIVATE HOUSE WHERE HE LIVES.

That’s not to say I don’t understand where Forever and Baghera are coming from - obviously it probably does come across like he doesn’t trust them but. Even if they’re right (they’re not), if he doesn’t trust them then trying to guilt-trip him into giving them complete access is not gonna. make him trust them more so. Y’know. Skill issue.

OKAY NOW THE LIVE THOUGHTS

- Lmao Bad is explaining his potential proxy representive democracy style government to Antoine and he really just said “if any candidate tries to assassinate anyone else I’ll just kill them” like he knows how stacked he is. People ask “What if someone assassinates Bad?” And my answer to that is: they can certainly try but they’ll probably fail miserably.

- Bad: “Everyone thinks they’re powerful until a mine is placed in the right location.” I am so glad he’s not evil because everyone else would be screwed if he was

- Bad: “I’m gonna be honest: I don’t want a government. I do not want a president. But if we have to choose a president, I want a president that will do as little as possible [without full community support].” My anarchist king. A man of the People.

- Bad has decided he wants to talk to Phil and try and convince him to run because he doesn’t trust anyone to be a ‘good president’ and thinks someone who doesn’t want the position at all would be the best choice. He also said if Phil won’t, he will run himself with an anti-government stance. If he doesn’t have a chance of winning, he will throw his support behind Forever or Baghera and help them win. I really want to see a Phil/Bad team-up though, or at least see them discuss it.

- Overall, Bad’s whole monologue about his stance on the election was super cool and he’s so Right and Correct. He didn’t explain it very well during the debate but god damn is he cooking

#qsmp #qsmp analysis #q!bbh #q!badboyhalo #like I genuinely do not understand how anyone is somehow entitled to Bad’s base and resources #even if they’re his best friends he still should be able to kick them out at will. like that’s just straight up His House

Finding out I was aromantic was fine. It was the fact that characters who I closely connect to and relate to often have these defining moments with romance and or romantic partnership that I will never fully grasp. That’s what hurts.

can some fucking people stop being to celebrities like “oh this person is either gay or queerbaiting because their personality is making me interpret them as queer because they act ‘stereotypically’ gay and that if you act like this you have to be queer. so we’re gonna either force this person to come out via peer pressure when they may not want to or be ready to or bully them for acting a certain way if they’re not queer because that’s the only way i can accept these people acting this way.” it’s really fucked up, based on toxic patriarchal values, and plain homophobic. analyze these parts about yourself and put a stop to it. it’s not funny. it’s not doing the lgbtq community a favor. it’s an asshole thing to do and you better be leaving that shit in 2023.

#this shit upsets me so deeply i hope you noticed #kit connor #harry styles #billie eilish #shawn mendes #honestly i’m not even a huge shawn mendes fan but what some people did when they were look omg he’s gay bc he acts 💅 #fucking disgusting #let’s not even start with how people made gross speculations about him and camila’s relationship #don’t forget the fact that billie had to come out bc she was put on the spot and she can’t just exist as a queer person #it really rubs me the wrong way all of it #and the kit connor situation is self explanatory #oh right i forgot to mention #taylor swift #like read the prologue please #also i feel the large majority of the community drowns out the g*ylors but it still clearly gets to taylor y’all #she’s stated multiple times she’s straight. stop insinuating otherwise. #even if she didn’t #the public doesn’t have to act like they’re entitled to sensitive details of someone’s life bc they’re famous. #gain some empathy. grow the fuck up #lgbtqia #lgbtq #queer

Feel like there’s not very much attention paid to the S2 trauma of Tommy being coerced into use as an assassin.

(and, from a few of my notes during the S2 rewatch, the men he killed were sufficient to trigger great hostilities w Ireland; effectively he killed those men and (re-)started a war?) ‘The Chosen One’ / ‘I am Chosen’ / ‘May the Chosen One smoke?’

And then Churchill letting Tommy think he was being executed ‘Chosen One’ and crawling out of the grave owing his life to Churchill ‘I am Chosen’; the way Tommy asked for his last cigarette before that execution ‘May the Chosen One smoke’; his rage and disgust in both scenes, the coat on the meat hook and reminiscence of hanging…

The way he has to ‘give up on grace’ just prior to committing the first assassination, the way he has sex w Lizzie like eating a last meal he can’t even taste; the way he gives up on actual Grace as well as grace, just before he resigns himself to his own execution…

I mean, I’m nonsensical about it, can’t quite explain; at S1 it is a fairly hopeful ending; his personal ‘schemes’ for S2 reach high but aren’t wildly out of reach. To that point, when he’s killed it’s primarily been in the heat of battle.

But then he’s pulled off the street and forced to cold premeditated murder.

That first assassination he committed I feel did him some serious, serious damage, and that was the point that he did release any idea of ‘grace’ for himself, with everything that followed just further embedding that belief.

#I mean I just get really interested in the glossing over of what Churchill did to him repeatedly #these mini prompts have done much to re-enthuse myself to writing that Churchill dinner scene with Charlie watching his dad in confusion #Churchill fucked him from the first season and hasn’t stopped by S6 #Mosley’s tame by comparison as that readily recognisable enemy entitling apocalypse #Churchill is subtle as the Establishment which must be preserved for the People at personal expense #Tommy saying ‘I’ll work more with Churchill’ as atonement/a good thing for murdering the Barwells gutted me #You want to know the enemy you’ll never defeat…the enemy you can't defeat because they’re as pervasive and necessary as air #Etc #I disliked the use of Churchill initially as Twee; as time’s gone on I kinda like it because we’re all predisposed to automatically put him #—as Good. When it’s a lot more grey than that.

I just know they think they ended domestic violence directed at women. If only you knew. Oblivion is peace

people on tiktok well on all social media sites actually will loudly critique the fact some people (especially those who only watched the movies) “didn’t get the point of the hunger games” and then turn around and say gale is the worst person in the universe and treat him like he’s a monster, and that all these traits are innate characteristics completely isolated from the circumstances in which he lived and the people around him. like girlie i think maybe YOU didn’t get the point here either.

#obviously this isn’t to say you need to or were “supposed to” like gale #there are a lot of good reasons to criticize him. esp wrt his sense of entitlement to katniss. #but he’s not supposed to be a Villain™️ #like he’s a poor traumatized (brown coded) boy whose very valid anger was used to groom him into a perfect soldier. #kind of almost like it’s a critique on the militarization of young boys. esp those who are underprivileged. #which doesn’t excuse his actions & it doesn’t mean you have to like him #but it’s enraging when people act like he is a heartless monster who is unredeemable or whatever. like. oh that’s not…. #bonus points if they babygirlify cato and clove (and marvel and glimmer) and cry about how they’re just kids #+ “they were only the way they are bc of the capitol 🥺”. #like yes it’s a big point that they were kids groomed to be child soldiers because the capitol pressured and “rewarded” career districts #to churn out child soldiers and whatnot. but that. ok. #truly just how do you hold the belief that to an extent excuses them or at least makes them sympathetic— #—but then not extend that empathy to gale. side eye. #esp bc a lot of the stuff is taking potshots at gale to uplift peeta/everlark. #like. uh! okay! #obligatory disclaimer i don’t actually like gale. however i am at my limit on weird and bad and inconsistent takes on him. #yeah he sucks. almost like that’s because he was horrifically oppressed by the captiol + then was groomed to be the ideal soldier by coin. #crazy how that’s the point. #and AGAIN. doesn’t EXCUSE what he does. but it’s important to acknowledge bc it v much contextualizes who and what he is and does. #the hunger games #gale hawthorne #i don’t think i need to tag this in the anti tag but lmk

bmc tiktok recently went to war over wrol!jeremy vs wcon!jeremy (they have this discourse every few months), fighting the bloodiest battle known to man… i watched from the corner and made no plans to intervene, clutching troy!jeremy in my content-starved hands

#so that’s why i prefer bmc tumblr #we’re all friends here (for the most part) #troy!jeremy supremacy #I LOVE ALL JEREMIES THOUGH they are all so good and idk why people fight so much over this #they all got hired for a reason #they’re all able to play the part well #however the bmc fandom needs to calm down when people disagree with them #we are all entitled to our own opinions and the best thing to do is respect them even if we don’t agree #except if the opinion comes from a squipjer shipper #fuck squipjer shippers #and other problematic people here #remy’s rambles #be more chill #bmc #be more chill musical

I remember seeing a post a while back that was from a sexual assault survivor speaking about Astarion’s experience. And how some people considering him more asexual after that experience belittled SA survivors experiences.

But like, all due respect you’re belittling asexual people and more specifically asexual people who are that way because they’ve experienced assault. Directly calling people who would consider Astarion asexual as considering him broken. Asexual people aren’t broken just like people who’ve been SAed aren’t necessarily either.

#labels aren’t permanent things #they’re subject to change #if someone identifies more with asexuality after years of sex abuse I think they deserve that comfort #even if they later change it or realize they were just using it to cope #the queer community is supposed to be welcoming and loving to people in all walks of life #and I think people are entitled to give Astarion that label if it gives *them* comfort #it isn’t coming from a place of malice for Allo people who’ve experienced SA it’s for ace people who’ve experienced SA and been belittled #for it ‘not being able to move on’ #grrrr #possibly delete later

Equal Opportunity Asshole Monoma? I wanna see how you make him an asshole, the fandom usually overdoes it.

Monoma who sneers about people not having the same amount of power he has. He’s been told all his life he’s got a weak Quirk but it’s not true! Not when he can have any power he wants just by touching someone! How do you like your Quirk turned against you? How do you like a taste of-

Wait.

Why can’t he copy this one Quirk?

Monoma being an asshole because he becomes obsessed with Izuku and his Quirk. He’s always around asking for answers, trying to argue that he deserves to know, just he’s gone feral.

Sprinkle in some entitlement issues to. Why should Monoma ask for permission before using someone’s Quirk. He has every right to do what he wants, he’s got a copy Quirk after all! Which ties into his demands for answers because he views Quirks as his to use how he wants.

Eventually he pushes to far and receives a punishment where he is forced to take lessons on consent and entitlement.

#bnha #bnha au #you could also go entitled to date Izuku #as he is the only one he can’t copy #meaning they’re obviously perfect for each other #equal opportunity asshole
