im noticing that for a lot of americans “free palestine” has been an ideological motto and symbol rather than them actually believing in their heart that freedom is attainable and necessary

rewatching the good place and one thing i've noticed is that the immortal beings like michael and the judge go to a general "she" as the gender neutral when stating some ancient rule, subverting the way that many older texts will revert to a general "he". it's fun.

Hey everyone, please consider buying the 2024 itch.io Palestinian Relief Bundle- it's 373 games, game-making assets, tabletop roleplaying games, zines, and comics for a minimum of just 8 USD! They have a goal of 100,000 USD, and as of the time I'm writing this post, they have 8 more days to reach it.

platforming palestinian joy is just as important as sharing the suffering they're enduring during this genocide. despite continued displacement and bombardment, you cannot steal their joy and spirit. happy birthday to this sweet baby 🖤🇵🇸 may they grow up to see a free palestine

One thing I find interesting is the amount of times I've seen Arthur's famous line in 5.03 be misquoted as:
"but my hands.. my hands belong to the devil."
which actually erases such a key component to that line, it's actually:
"but my hands.. these hands belong to the devil."
He considers them as his own and then immedaitely distances himself from them, instantly trying to absolve himself from the blame of what he's just done. It's interesting that it gets misquoted as something which makes Arthur appear less in control, like something is being taken from him. But we see from the way he is with Linda and even Billy Grade, Arthur is much more aware in s5 and the way he utilises violence especially with those two feels far more calculated than it's ever been.

For the character ask thingy:
Tommy 1, 9, 12
(I wasn't sure if I should do more than one character but I will gladly send another ask with another character)
Hello! Thanks for sending these in and feel free to send as many as you like for whichever characters.
I often give more attention to the other characters because of how proportionally underrated they are in comparison to Tommy so I'm sorry that these answers aren't too in depth.
Why do you like or dislike this character?
I do love him because he's one of the most well done 'morally grey' characters if not the best one. Of course I'd say I dislike him for his treatment of women, but pretty much all his other actions have some sort of reasoning or intention that you can understand. I particularly like him for what s2 shows of him - buying houses for Polly and Ada to look after them, his insistence on bringing the family together by finding Michael, and most importantly his sass. I'm going to have to make a gifset on all of his quips etc because I just love him for that, I love seeing him be a little sillier. Another thing I love is how truly accepting and supportive he is. We see the respect he shows to James - the moment he learns he's gay, instead of ignoring him like he would any stranger he meets as usual, he makes a point to shake his hand and show him that he acknowledges him because in that time he would've been greatly denied that and shunned. He does make a conscious effort for people. And in the way he is with Curly. I think Curly does represent as an autistic person sent to do more physical work since being deemed not suited for anythign else. and especially with the way he is better with animals than people, a common stereotype which can have truth in it. But Tommy doesn't see him as less or treat him like he's 'simple'. He respects him for his skill and treats him like any other person where often we see other characters either give him weird looks or tell him to shut up. It makes me happy.
9. Could you be roommates with this character?
Surprisingly I think being Tommy's roommate would be kind of chill. It'd be awkward at first since I'm quiet and probably would hold his opinion of me way too highly lmao, but other than that we'd probably keep ourselves to ourselves. I'd probably try to make jokes with him and he'd just stare at me in disappointment, which would be awkward. And then, it's also likely I'd just never see him because he's always busy, and he doesn't sleep. But he'd definitely be the type who if you're getting shit for something, he'll sort them out for you. So if I had the choice I'd probably go with no, but if I was forced to be his roommate I might not mind terribly.
12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?
I don't have many otherwise so I do have to use the lgbtq headcanons as my scapegoat here. It's particularly cool to see the headcanon of Tommy being transmasc getting quite popular lately, because I've always headcanoned him as such and it fits him super well.
And I don't know how far the notion of tommy x alfie strays into "things that are barely a headcanon anymore because they're so universally agreed upon" but yeah he and alfie are soulmates idk.
I do have a massive notes app document where I throw all my headcanons and fic ideas and there is this one concept that stems from the theory that Alfie does die in s4 and Tommy is talking to his ghost. Except this is the idea that Alfie is alive, but Tommy doesn't know. I think it could work as a fun reading of those scenes - Tommy talking to him like he's a ghost and Alfie thinking well, the man's gone bloody mad in't he. And Tommy thinks about it in contrast with the way Grace appears to him and how she often comes to torment him but Alfie's spririt (which is literally just Alfie) just wants to talk with him normally. And furthermore, Tommy considering that he loves Alfie the same way he loved Grace. I hope this counts as a headcanon, it might just be a fic idea but I don't think it's one I would plan on fleshing out any more.
