#GOD I need to rewatch this it’s absolutely peak
Text
good evening to you all and welcome to cockmojo where tonight we will be counting down my personal top ten terror cocks
those unaffiliated with footyblr may be unfamiliar with the term cock as it’s being used here: all will become clear in time
special mention before we start to the netsilik hunter (sexy man, deserved a name and some screentime) james clark ross but only in the first episode when he’s all rugged and his beard’s grown out, and mr blanky, who, much like knife dad, fuccs like a broken train but he runs on time if you know what i mean
in a very respectable tenth place finish, billy gibson. i didn’t see the vision until 1. it was pointed out to me that he looks a lot like pau torres, who is himself very cockable, and 2. i rewatched the scene where he breaks up with hickey. known shagger, massive hater, a very pointy nose, he’s scraped a place on this list.
a surprise entry at ninth is john irving. inarguably cute in a sort of late 2000s british indie band bassist way, and while i’m not sure i could fix him (he probably needs a man for that) i do think i would have fun trying. ultimately he’s not higher because he’s kind of annoying and his eyebrows piss me off.
representing the dilves at eighth is doctor macdonald. he’s entrancing to me he has this vibe of like gentle paternal indulgence... like even if you were annoying he’d be very fond of you. and i need that. when he said “i’d like to run that man through” and rubbed his eyes and looked so tired, i really felt something. the crow’s feet, the widow’s peak, the hair, yes!!
doing it for the feminists, in seventh we have harry goodsir. the loveliest guy on the expedition until he goes nastymode, and i’m fully on board with both versions. this picture was chosen for a reason and it’s bc his long curly hair full beard miserable expression era was simply unbeatable. unfortunately, and this is maybe the most insane thing i’ve ever said about a man, or at least top ten, when his half eaten corpse was laid out face down, and it had noticeable back hair, i got the ick. just to add insult to injury :/
i’m as surprised as you are that he’s not higher, number six, james fitzjames! he is my pretty pretty princess. nails, hair, hips, heels. high femme queen in his cunty little outfits ordering the men around. i want to brush his hair, one hundred strokes minimum. i think this is less sexual than some others on this list, it’s more appreciation. but my god do i appreciate him.
stay alive, number five, it’s thomas jopson. most beautiful haunted doll in the arctic, but that pretty face is covering up a seriously compelling #WeirdGuy underneath. all the shiny hair in the world can’t hide an obsession with his boss that in the modern era would be getting him a very serious meeting with HR. what a character, servicetopson you rock my world. but at the end of the day he loses points because i hate the beard. garrigan looks great with a beard in other stuff, i really don’t know why the scurvybeard was so foul. terror hair and makeup department GET IT TOGETHER.
number phwoar, henry collins is here! he’s big he’s sweet he’s deeply mentally unstable he needs a cuddle and we’ve all seen that gif of him in aliens. would love to make him a really nice cup of tea (seems like a two sugars man), pet his hair as he rests his head in my lap, then fuck up my hip flexors.
and now... we enter our top three. who’s made it to the prestigious cock podium?
first up, the winner of our bronze cock medal, which presumably he’ll be flogging for an unreasonable price to someone he’s assured it’s solid gold, “cornelius hickey”! people will bitch and moan about how he’s a violent lunatic who’s killed people like i’m not a cuti romero stan 🙄 i can see beyond that, my third eye is firmly open. the potential for a fun toxic relationship is absolutely off the charts bc that’s the only kind he has. and he’s very pretty when he cries. i can forgive a lot of crimes for a man whose nose entrances me.
in second place, such a close runner up, i have to award this honour to edward little. a pedestrian choice, you might think, if you don’t know the lore. i couldn’t fully explain my feelings towards this secondary character who’s not especially exciting on first watch when i started the show until i googled his actor... although i lacked the words to express this at the time i was cocking this man when i was 13 and he first appeared in misfits with a stupid neck tattoo and a horrible suit, and i cock him again now. this is a cock that’s followed me all my life, even though i forgot he existed for about a decade in between. who else can truly say they’ve EARNED a spot on my list like he has? he’s sad, he’s sopping wet, i could make him cry extremely easily. mwah
and finally...
number one. it had to be him, it was always going to be him. solomon tozer, take a bow and i’ll take ten cranberry pills. sol is thee top cock for so many reasons and chief among them is versatility. whatever you need he can be it. handsome soldier boy in a fancy red uniform that shows off his trim little waist? COCK! hostile violent mutineer throwing his life away in a rebellion? COCK! broken man inducted into a cult who cries about it? COCK!!! sexiest man in the damn arctic i know he was beating the boys off with a stick. there is a certain level of sexiness a man can reach where nothing he does is an ick, and i knew he’d reached that for me once i saw him in that insanely stupid hat at sir john’s funeral and didn’t give a fuck. call him tom jones the way he can leave his hat on. keep thotting it up in heaven/hell king i miss you every day. i know it was huge. my heart hurts.

when the truth comes out - tory nichols
request: hello :) i was so excited to see that you take requests for tory, could i please request s5 tory x fem!reader (either an imagine or headcanons) where reader is a member of miyagi do/eagle fang and maybe she tells reader the truth about cobra kai and being forced to break the stone because terry and kim brought up reader? honestly whatever you’d like to write is totally fine with me 💖 thanks so much!
warning(s): swearing, blood(?), scars, angst and fluff hah
word count: n/a
pairing: tory nichols x fem!reader
a/n: finally writing these, sorry schools kinda pushing back schedules due to me missing a few days :/ i had to rewatch this episode but i absolutely love this idea !! also new dividers for fall !! woohoo 💗💗💗 this also feels so rushed im sorry, not proof read btw
it was late, like really late. sensei larusso, chozen, and lawrence had made classes go way over then they were supposed to and then hawk and miguel just needed you to go grab something to eat with them.
you didn’t mind though, you loved spending time with those goofs, but they wore you out.
you joined the miyagi-do/eagle fang dojo with robby earlier in the summer. he had convinced you since you weren’t going to deal with silver’s bullshit. you didn’t miss cobra kai one bit, but there was someone you missed.
that person? was tory.
due to going to separate dojos, you had a falling out and it lead you to break up. it hit you hard, you wouldn’t talk to anyone do anything for days on end until robby checked up on you. you missed her a lot, and you hadn’t see her since miguel’s party where her and sam got into an argument. you tried to chase after her, but she had gotten away before you could.
you had just gotten out of the shower, putting on a clean pair of pajamas shorts and one of tory’s old t-shirts you never gave back. you wouldn’t dare give it back, it’s one of the only things you have left of hers.
walking into your room, drying your h/c hair with an extra towel, you let out a sigh. practice today was tiring, most had been recently. thank goodness your parent’s weren’t home for the weekend so you could have to whole house to yourself.
you almost didn’t hear the frantic knocking at your door, but you did. it made you jump a little, who in the world would be knocking at this hour?
you slowly crept downstairs, the knocking still going. “i’m coming, i’m coming,” you mumble to no one really.
making your way to the front door, you let out a slightly shaky breathe, reaching out to turn the knob and slowly open the door. you opened the door excessively slow, peaking out until you released who was standing in your doorway.
“tory…?” you muttered.
she looked up at you, slightly teary eyed. “hey.”
“tory! what are you- uh. what are you doing here?”
the blonde let’s out a sigh, looking around outside before looking back at you, “can i come in?” she asked.
“yeah, of course-,” you start, before noticing her knuckles, which she had been rubbing gently. “oh my god, what happened to your hand?”
“that’s what i came here for.”
“okay, uh… follow me.” you say, getting out of her way to let her in, shutting the door and leading her to the kitchen.
she sits at the counter, watching you grab an ice pack from the freezer and hand it to her. she rests it on her knuckles.
“so…,” you rock back and forth on your heels, “what’s up?”
tory let’s out a shaky breathe, “my whole life is a fucking lie.”
you quirk an eyebrow, “what.”
“everything is a lie. i’m living a lie. silver paid off the refs at the all-valley last year. cobra kai cheated so i could win against sam.”
“tory- slow down, i can’t keep up. silver paid off the refs?”
“yes! and it’s been eating me alive for months. i wanted to get back at him so bad. i’ve been visiting kreese in prison and all he’s been telling me is lies! i’ve been telling him everything for nothing! i feel like a fraud. my life is a living hell, i’ve lost all of my friends, and more importantly; you.”
you walk up to her and kneel in front of her, looking up at her. “hey, hey, hey, you haven’t lost me,” you say, “i’m not going away at all. we, miyagi-go and eagle fang, can help you. they went to stingray earlier. he basically admitted that silver assaulted him. he’s too afraid to go to the police.
“i knew silver was involved, i just didn’t think he did it with his own hands,” she said quietly.
“yeah, but we don’t have anything to prove it.”
“if it happened at the old dojo, maybe we can..”
“really? are you sure?”
“yeah, but can we not talk about this right now. i need a break for at least a night. can i stay here tonight? i don’t want to be alone.”
you nod, “of course, you don’t even have to ask. just tell me one thing; what happened to your hand?”
“they made me break pure stone, y/n, but i couldn’t. until they brought up our break up… then bam! instant break,” she said, voice breaking at the end of her sentence. “i regret breaking up with you so much. i miss you.”
your heart broke at the sight of her sounding so weak and broken. “hey, it’s okay. it’s okay. those people are sick. i miss you too, and maybe once we go through with out plan, we can try again okay? when we broke up i was broken, but i want us to try again, please.”
tory nodded, “yeah, i’d like that a lot. the worst thing about cobra kai was losing you and i refuse to let you go that easy.”
she placed a chaste kiss to your forehead before you giggled, standing up. “we’ve gotta keep this a secret for a bit, how romantic.”
“this is why i won’t let you get away too easy, juilet,” tory gave you a smile.
“come on, let’s go upstairs romeo. we’ve got quality cuddle time to make up for.”

LBFAD rewatch observations part 9
1. His little touched expression when Xiao Run says "whats mine is yours, my friends are your friends" 🥺
2. Both of them feeling confused and guilty about Xiao Run and Lady Wanqing and naturally gravitating towards each other. Her saying "I'm in bad moood, chat with me." Him telling her I understand your feelings, I'm feeling them as well. Aahhh. Cutie patooties. 🥰
3. XLH hugging Danyin after realizing it was her because she had missed her!! "This expression, this tone, you used when you used to bully me eeeekkkk!!" *happy baby*
4. Danyin posessing the only brain cell in the entire Mortal Realm Arc and immediately saying "What, why the heck would Xiao Run kill his bride? With his personality? You dum dums planned your whole game on this ?!?"
5. Danyin really said "Gurl I will cut you! Don't test me." And I love her for that.
6. Ronghao using all his master manipulation tricks to guilt Xiao Lanhua but her still hesitating and being brave enough to say "DFQC is not a bad person". 🥺🥺 And it wasn't the threat to Changheng's life or Lady Wanqing's life that finally breaks through to her. It was when Ronghao reveals that DFQC plans on releasing the soldiers to wage war against Shuiyuntian that we begin to see her mind shift. The concept of "one person vs all people" really is at the core of her. (also it was the fact that DFQC lied to her that further pushes her...but gurl you lied too -__-)
7. Earlier, her telling him: "He is Xiao Run not Changeheng, he is not your enemy." And then later when she says I thought you and Xiao Run were friends now! and his reply of "Yes. He is Xiao Run. Not Changheng." *chefs kissess* 🤌🏼🤌🏼
8. Im gonna lose my mind. DFQC yelling at Shangque to find Lady Wanqing and Xiao Run and make sure no mistake happens because Lady Chidi's spirit is the most important thing right now. And then LITERALLY 5 SECOND LATER he kills Lady Wanqing without a second thought because she was about to kill XLH. THIS MAN. THISS MANSSS. He really just says "Xiao Lanhua >>>>>>" over and over and over again.
9. That badass music that usually only plays for DFQC scenes being played for XLH 😍😍😍😍😍
10. I swear they extended Dylan Wang Hedi's eyeliner or gave him even more lashes after the mortal realm arc cuz no way he is looking even more puppy/doe eyed than usual without even trying. Like he has got the "boy you're in love" look all overr him even while talking about politics.
11. The way she peaks out from behind the curtain and looks at him?!? The cute little bright sunshine smile she gives?!?!? The way he looks in her direction expecting her to pop out from there?!?!?? IM DYING THESE 2 KILLING ME.
12. DFQC : Why are you smiling?
Me: BOY why are YOUU smiling like for real boy you have not stopped smiling since this post mortal realm scene started like boy get in control your love is spilling out EVERYWHERE!!! people are tripping and sliding and falling all over it. There are injuries! 😄 I love them.
13. Uhmm him just taking the medicine without protest, taking deep breath, grimacing, then swallowing it down only to look up at her with thr puppiest of EYESSS like loook I did it are you happy?!?!? 💀💀💀💀 im dead
14. XLH LOOKING AT HIM WITH ALL THAT LOVE LIKE GURL STOP IM DEAD PLEASE STOP KILLING ME. Like we have seen so many DFQC gazing at her with love scenes but god this is her first full blown "I am in love with this man" look and it is ETHEREAL!! it is sunshine breaking through the clouds!! I need a gif of it.
15. Ya'll this whole scene seems too damn personal. Like I feel guilty for intruding. Like I should not be here in this room watching these two absolute babies just gaze so softly, and smile these small soft smiles, and bat their pretty lashes at each other, and DFQC stumbling awkwardly after her and then reaching out and holding her hand so tenderly conveying everything he is too shy to say. like this is tooo invasive. This intrusion is a crime.
16. The way he SENSES that she probably heard what they were discussing and is distressed!! The way he immediately goes to her!!! 😭😭😭😭😭
17. "Jieli said you wanted to be alone. I can accompany you" !!!!!! Insert that one Winnie the Pooh quote about Piglet offering to just sit in silence with Pooh when he is feeling down.
18. OH MY GOD CHANGHENG. FIND A BETTER TIME TO POP IN YOU LITTLE MENACE! Do you not see them having a MOMENT! Begone! (DFQC immediately turning the sky stormy and lightening... same honestly-_- fry him up and serve him for dinner King)
#love between fairy and devil#cang lan jue#lbfad rewatch#cdrama#xiao lan hua#xiao lanhua#dong fang qing cang#dongfang qingcang#this was in my drafts for so long

Rules: List 10 of your comfort shows, then tag 10 people
Tagged by @sorry-bonebag and @shouldiusemyname TY very much tag games are so fun! (sorry it's taken me a while to get too!)
I read "comfort shows" and my brain stalled out. Like define comfort? Am I sick? Am I sad and in need of cheering up? Am I angry? Am I hurt? Am I tired? Am i overtired? Am I emotional? What negative emotional state am in dang it??
I started this list thinking there wouldnt be many BL or wider Asian shows but then I remembered prior to this year I almost never watched TV...so it's Asian focused after all! (I went no books allowed or it would have been 3/4 books lol)
Added later: I remembered anime and I have no idea what to do because it's gonna sweep the list...okay, 1 anime per category.
Also I tend to be a CHRONIC rewatcher (Or rereader) even when not in need of comfort so the sheer amount of New content I have consumed this year boggles my mind and is definitely a break from tradition so I am not quite sure yet how much of it is going to stay with me...
But anyway I am using some categories to help
First up: Comfort when I'm sick/run down/tired:
Being sick tends to leave me too tired to read and very much desiring not to use my brain more than necessary so, Shows that gives me the warm fuzzies:
1. Ascendence of A Bookworm - Just sneaking past two others who jostle for the top spot, this is my favourite anime of all time and is absolutely peak comfort, it's given me three beautiful seasons so far and I continue to sit in quite hope for more
2. SOTUS S I am dying to rewatch this series, the emotional resonance I felt to Arthit's journey all the way through is still possibly the most connected I have felt to any character ever and this soft story of growing love and finding your place in teh world with someone by your side is absolutely peak comfort for me.
3. Sing My Crush or more broadly many Korean BL. Most Korean BL is absolutely my comfort zone, it's soft, warm and fuzzy, it's the shows I watch right before bed to send me off to good dreams. Korean BL is definitely comfort for me, and while Sing My Crush isn't my favourite Korean BL, it's definitely my most comforting so far.
Second: Comfort when I'm sad/hurt/down:
E.g. cheer me up shows:
4. Doctor Who, my favourite tv show of all time remains my favourite cheer me up show. Early to mid of any season to keep crying to a minimum.
5. Avatar the Last Airbender, I don't even think this one needs am explanation.
6. Tonhon Chonlatee (and many other Thai BL) I find a lot of Thai BL pretty funny and I found TC utterly hilarious, I definitely plan to use rewatching this one as a pick me up in the future
7. Crash course in Romance, What's a list without some Kdrama! I am still dying to expand my watchlist with Kdrama's but I have to get through all the BL on it first lol...I'm about to reach 100 BL, maybe I'll make a post about it
(also the anime for this cat is: No Game No Life, so bonus show)
Third: Get me out of my own head
E.g. shows that make me feel a lot (some of the above shows also fit this criteria lol)
8. The Eclipse My equal favourite Thai show (along with SOTUS S) and another one where I felt crazy resonance with a main character. In this case the emotional tone is more intense for me, though It's still definitely comfort!
9. The Irregular at Magic Highschool A.K.A Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei (and various spin offs). The third anime of my top three trifecta and one that also has fed me multiple seasons. This one is such fun but also pretty intense so I love it for a myriad of reasons.
10. Goblin the Great and Lonely God, My favourite Kdrama so far, just beating out crash course in the rankings. Even writing the name leaves me dying to go back and watch it all again.
ahhh @plantsarepeopletoo and @thegalwhorants tag me in your answers since you've already been tagged I'll add...
@sparklyeyedhimbo @visualtaehyun @callipigio and @slayerkitty
sorry if you've already done it, and either way no pressure to play!

8 shows to get to know me
my bae sufa @heart-ming didn’t tag me but let’s just say they did teehee. i literally mostly watched kdramas before i started bls so this list will admittedly be kdrama centric 🫣 in chronological order (i think):
that 70s show: has this show aged well? no. but there are still so many iconic moments that it holds a special place in my heart. twelve year old me would race home after school to watch re-runs. twelve year old me also thought peak romance was eric and donna dancing to abba’s fernando in the drive way in front of the vista cruiser 😭😭
reply 1988: i never thought reply ‘97 could be topped (esp after the disappointment of ‘94) but reply ‘88 knocked it out of the ball park completely. i loved every single character sm, it rlly felt like home :’) and rip to those who had sls but i’m different 💅🏼 (jk i usually have a chronic case of sls dsjkfnksjd but everything in this drama made sense, esp deok seon and taek). who else was there for soompi forum user @ packmule using colour-theory, dialogue, and frame analysis to guess who the husband was before the show finished airing???? packmule on soompi forums u will always be famous xoxo
my mister: the grip this show had on me should be studied like. i made my first fandom sideblog for this show?????? i wrote my first fanfic for this show??????? dskjfnkdjnsk the scene in which park dong hoon sits in his living room after everything is finished and then bursts out in tears and then the background music cuts off and we just hear him sOBBING in silence...... i will never recover, i fear
2gether: speaking of shows that had a grip on me ksdjfnkdsjnf i gotta be real and add this to the list since y’all who have been following me since this era bore witness to my absolute obsession. i def can objectively say that 2gether is not a good show but tine and watine remain a special place in my heart forever ♡
ofcc & cherry magic: LOL I’M CHEATING AND PUTTING THESE TWO TOGETHER but they’re both about gay salarymen so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ idk there’s just an underlying sadness to both these fluffy jbls that i fuck with heavy
i told sunset about you: no matter how much beef i have with p’meen, p’boss has done nothing wrong in his life ever and itsay tehohaew remain my babies. y’all alrdy know itsay had me in tears weekly (i still remember watching ep 4 during class time ((covid college core)) and then my prof started saying something after i finished the ep and i BURST into tears and haven’t recovered since tbh)
to my star 1&2: god daseul invented cinema and romance, actually. this show (s2 particularly) had me on twitter spaces talking about jiwoo and seojun’s depth and complexity for 8+ hours 💀 i literally could write an entire thesis on it—have probably, if u combine my tumblr tags and tweets 😭😭😭 tms surpassed my 2gether rewatches (which @phukaoapologist & @pranpat can attest that is A LOT), and will always remain that bitch
the glory: every girliepop has a lil’ bit of blood lust in them. sometimes u need a cute lil’ revenge drama on ur list and a man that would tell you that he’d kill for you xo
tagging!: @nonkul @itoldsunset @phukaoapologist @pranpat @earthpirapat @dirhwangdaseul @ohmybitna @jaehwany @junghaesin @fordallan @deshimango @kinnkittisawasd @freensrcha @jiustian i’ll only tag a few since i bet a lot of ppl have alrdy done this but if u want to and i didn’t tag you consider urself tagged ♡
#tag game#tbh i haven't rewatched my mister in a minute and i'm sure there are shows i enjoyed more but it's solely on the list because of t#the GRIP it had on me like i was insane sdkjfnksjdnf

Hello, this is a rant post because I need to evacuate some thoughts, I know this blog isn’t for it, but don’t hesitate to respond in anyway, if you agree or not. I would seriously really appreciate, this blog is the only place where I can really discuss about stuff with people outside of my work environement (because my work is my life, and funnily enough I hate my work.)
Upon rewatching Hellsing (the 2001 show) and now ultimate (the ovas) I’ve come to realize something.
See I’m not usually one for the edgy, I tend to find it more funny and litteraly cringe than cool, it’s not that I don’t like a bit of edge, A dark character can be very cool when done with an appropriate tone or contrast, or just being an evil fucking bastard, for example ruin from UU is very very edge and cringe, but I don’t consider it bad writting at all, he’s litteraly an overzealous fanatic who think he’s god favorite very probably because he got 2 UMA in him who groomed him into thinking he was gonna survive ragnarok, ill never say that the edge in berserk is bad for example, (well I do for some of the stuff that comes before golden age. Before GA guts is a dark sasuke on steroid and outside from the halucinations, I can’t take him seriously)
But anyway, even without my not trully appreciation for the edge, nowadays when someone tells me "oh that show is so cool it’s dark and mature" I’m SUPER OFTEN disappointed. I mean come on guys, really, solo leveling is "the peak of maturity and badass?" "Omg sun said arise, and summon tons of ex bosses he fought that constantly praise him like fangirls" (And for those who haven’t read the manwha, I’ll add that those shadows are among the best characters in the series, and they aren’t great or profound.) or to change series "wow rimuru is so cool now that he transformed into a demon after eating one". "Annos is peak badass, he killed a guy then used magic to resurect him and killed him 100 times!" or even mentioning how there’s people out there who consider stuff like kingdom of ruin or redo no healer "deep and mature" because girls get r*ped in it. Rudeus being labeled as a good guy for doing absolutely no effort in helping a girl who is trap in this world with him because "ugh real world was bullying me" where we’ve seen him do litteraly no effort in real life at all.
It made me realize something, for a while I thought that "yeah it’s just not your age anymore" or "don’t be a boomer, you were cringe too back then" "you lack objectivity" but fuck it I’m gonna say it those series ARE trash, mid at best, but if you consider stuff like THAT peak, really ? You clearly haven’t watched good series, and it’s not an issue of "but it’s the genre / trope" you want good mature show ? They exist, you want a good isekai ? Same, log horizon’s worldbuilding and not have the entire world rely on the powerfull but not op protag is right there, you want a good power fantasy ? Ever heard of fucking dragon ball ? (I know it’s a shonen neketsu first, but really shonen neketsu is power fantasy except with a minimum of depth and characters with personality)
I won’t spoil in details Hellsing / Hellsing ultimate because I really think it’s a story that needs to be watch, but it’s not just good because "ahahah ultra badass psycho vampire, girl with huge boobs and even huger guns and English lady boss kill nazis" the whole story is a parallel about moving on from traumas of the past and the idiocy of following dogmas / the past without thinking, and that’s just scratching what’s good.
Meanwhile what does a show like solo leveling teach us ? "Be on the grind and a sigma male and be super handsome rich and strong because that’s the only way girls and people will care about you and respect you ?" "Be a piece of shit to people and you’ll be rewarded" "every Japanese is an asshole" (ok in all seriousness that last one is something in manwhas in general and it can easily be understand that Korea has a grudge against them because of history)
Anyway all that to say, I’m tired of pretending that mediocre, or even bad series are good just because duhu they’re popular and it’s the new style. There’s PLENTY of good new stuff. But people don’t focus on it and it’s fucking pissing me off.
Just in the shonen genre : dandadan, yozakura familly, undead unluck (duh), jjk ( i mean it’s not very "new Gen" and tbf the last arc crumbles because of gege’s writing and him being stuck with underdeveloped characters that no one care about because he put all his eggs on just a few chars. Basically it was very good for a while, like mha really (even though for mha it’s because the author takes 0 risk and just wants to please the fans) didn’t paid off, but you can respect the work) sakomoto days or yes even kagurabachi (throw in the memes) and even BIG SHOCKER one piece.
And that’s JUST SOME of jump’s content (well dandadan isn’t in the main magazine but shut up) AND I just talked about the most apreciated genre of battle shonen, staying in jump you got very fucking cool stuff like blue box, akanebanashi, csm, witch watch, elusive samouraï.
And once again, that’s just from jump and currently running. If you want good writen stories of any genre theres TON, and I can assure you that you will find badass and cool characters you can self insert into, difference is that they have actual care put into them, and say stuff, and have more than 1 character.
To chill me out I’ll remember than frieren and apothecary diaries got freakishly good results and that’s very fucking cool. I’ll also remember that we have very good non shonen targeted stuff like some high quality rom coms (dress up darling (in its first parts, gojo’s continuous depression and self doubt is getting on my nerves personally, they made him regress and it sucks) komi can’t comunicate, bochi the rock or dangers in my heart come to mind) Go watch them (the diaries have like, no action at all, but at the minimum go watch frieren, there’s a reason why people are saying it’s a new goat on the level of a fmab, as long as you have two neurons and now how to focus on a story, you’ll have a wonderfull time, it’s also plenty epic)
Anyway all that rant to say : it’s ok to like trash, I do to for other stuff, everyone does, it can even be your favorite thing. But please for the love of god and anything sacred, do yourself a favor and actually watch / read good stuff, varied at least, try to analyze what makes a good story and don’t be a slave to market that copy paste formula harder than an ai fucking could. It’s so fucking tiring to see authors and passionate project crash when next to them a copy pasta formula who does no effort and just rubs the viewer in the good way to have them brain disconnect on it. I know that anime and manga is a distraction, it’s for fun, but respect work and creativity for f sake (Queue the joke about the fact that a person who does ai art says all that)
#cowede talks#cowede orders you to watch / read unul its peak#cowede isnt feeling too good atm#cowede talks about series

Rules: list eight shows for your followers to get to know you better.
Tagged by @aeide!
1. black sails. OBVIOUSLY. it's got everything. drama, intrigue, ocean gays, lying little wet rat twinks, anti-colonialist uprisings, caribbean history, grimy period-appropriate costumes, heartbreak, monologues, toby "saturday chillin don't fuckin @ me i'm chillin" schmitz calling himself daddy. everybody slays absolute cunt. it is THEEEE most perfect show ever created.
2. parks and recreation. rewatching p&r is an interesting experience because it was such a product of obama-era liberal america and the optimism just oozes out of every scene. also we don't like crisp ratt anymore. but it's also so genuinely funny and heartfelt and comforting! this show had a massive impact on my sense of humor, as well as i think framed failure in such a positive light: every character failed drastically at something over the course of the show, but through caring for each other were able to pick themselves back up and never let their shortcomings define them. i first watched it at a point in my life where i really needed that, so it has always stuck with me.
3. leverage. my comfort show to turn to when living in a post-capitalist hellscape that continues to reward billionaires for their moral bankruptcy while shitting on everybody else gets too depressing (so… like every day). is it campy and unrealistic? yes. do i care? no. sometimes you need escapism via direct action, heist hijinks, and extreme displays of bisexuality. also aldis hodge is one of the most beautiful human beings on planet earth.
4. supernatural. yeah yeah it's the hehe destiel meme show. but it was also tons of fun to watch every week, the worldbuilding started out fantastic (and then got progressively more and more insane), i think it's really the epitome of "really cool ideas with mostly lackluster execution". the bloody mary episode remains one of my favorite episodes of tv ever, and the fandom drama just keeps giving! i also met some of my dearest friends through the fandom, so maybe the real destiel love memes were the friends we made along the way.
5. twin peaks. the only show that made me so insane i went and got a tattoo of it. impeccable vibes, the experience of watching s3 and then memeing about it on reddit with everyone else who were all equally confused is an experience that will never be replicated.
6. love island uk. listen. fucking listen. i don't want this show to be listed here any more than any of you do, i'm sure. absolute bottom of the barrel brain rot that consumes my life and brings my workday to a grinding halt (thank you timezones) for the 2 months that each season is running. i absolutely have nothing good to say about love island uk other than it's sometimes really funny, usually unintentionally. but iain stirling's voice and those stupid neon pillows/beanbags and atrocious cursive font and catchphrases have wormed their way into my brain and nothing short of a complete lobotomy can remove it.
7. how to get away with murder. this wouldn't even be on here if saff and i didn't go on an insane binge of all six seasons last fall. but since we did… here we are. michaela pratt is an icon and has never done anything wrong ever in her life and i will die on this hill.
8. cunk on earth. this is probably recency bias speaking but oh my god i adore this show. it is exactly my brand of humor and i have so much respect for all the experts and miss diane morgan herself for making it through those interviews without breaking, because i would be fighting for my fucking life. this is the show that i will henceforth be recommending like a madwoman to all my friends.
honorable mentions: american vandal, derry girls, naruto, south park, dexter, elementary, orphan black.
i'm tagging: @winedark @seance @assassiyun @thatsouthernanthem @potsticker1234 @ciaramedba @doomcountry @thychesters <3

Lol yeah Mike should pay us for breaking our gay hearts and tormenting us with his beautiful but heartbreaking stories. LEXA IS A TRUE U-HAUL LESBIAN!! She saw something she liked and went for it. I'd love to have her conference. If there wouldn't have been a war then Lexa would have married Clarke immediately. YOU HAVE TO WATCH THE SHOW!!! IT'S FANTASTIC! (Aside from season 3 and the last 5 minutes)
HOUSE OF USHER WAS SO FUCKING GOOD!! I loved it. Everyone in this family was a gigantic asshole and they lowkey deserved their fate (not Camille though, she is mother and can't do anything wrong). The cinematography, the metaphors, the shots. Everything was so beautiful and once again Mike managed to create such a wonderful story with great horror elements. I love that guy. And I'm so happy that I called the "twist"/reason for everything that's happened around episode 4. Usually I suck at predictions but now I'm so proud of myself 😁 You really have to force your brother to watch Hill House! Everyone must see this masterpiece at least once in their lives.
My day was good. I had fantastic food for lunch, hung out with the chickens and binged House of Usher. And read many more Wanda/Nat fics...
Look at her. Why couldn't she have gotten more screen time 😭 https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGJTkWVBe/
My tiktok is full of her now... https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGJTBrwgL/
And to complete the hot trio, here is Mel https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGJ7P3v1K/
I don't understand how one person can be so beautiful
Honestly, everyone should aspire to have Lexa’s confidence and her U-Haul lesbianism!!! I mean, Lexa basically did marry Clarke when she swore fealty to her in season 3!! I definitely do need to watch the rest of the show sometime!
THAT SHOW SO WAS FUCKING GOOD AND ONLY FOR 8 EPISODES?!?! IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN 10!! Kate Siegel try not to serve cunt challenge (impossible)!!! I loved all of the little references to Edgar Allan Pie’s story, especially the name ‘Fortunato.’ I had to explain most of the references to Poe’s work to my brother because he never got to read them in 8 grade because that was his covid year sadly, but he really loved that show!! It took me a hot minute to guess the twist, but I eventually did around episode 6 😭 I’m probably going to rewatch it again but after I read Poe’s stories, just so I can get a better understanding of it. And oh my god, I actually ship Verna and Madeline!!! Her final monologue in episode 8 was peak Mike Flanagan, and every word was written to perfection! Trust me, my brother will watch Hill House whether he wants to or not!
I’m glad you had a good day and some fantastic food!! Reading Wanda/Nat fics is the best way to end a day!
ALL OF HER OUTFITS WERE AMAZING!! ESPECIALLY THAT ONE WITH THE SNAKES
Those are my two favorite eras of her hair!!! Winter Soldier and Civil War are chefs kiss 😩
I absolutely love Melissa so much, how can she be so hot?!??
Also, I don’t know if this is true or not, but I’ve heard some things about Mel not returning to play Sam in the Scream 7 🧍♀️ I don’t think it’s true, because Sam is the new face of the movies, but I don’t know…

EVERYONE SHUT UP AND GO WATCH THE NEW SPIDER MAN MOVIE IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY !!! PEAK ANIMATION PEAK SOUNDTRACK PEAK CHARACTERS PEAK EVERYTHING
(spoilers below the cut)
just a love letter to this film <3
oh my god i literally had chills run down my spine when 42 miles was revealed with the prowler theme in the back. the MUSIC? THE FREAKIN MUSIC THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE FILM IS SO TENSE AND AMAZING AND FITS EVERY SCENE PERFECTLY.
don't even get me started on the character designs. they're all so unique and different and christ - HOBIE? the way he moves at a lower frame rate is so cool. i absolutely love the gorgeous animation style of these movies.
i was so hooked that me and my brother literally looked at each other and cried out in agony when the credits started rolling, like, THERE'S A SECOND PART? I'M SO EXCITED BUT IF I HAVE TO WAIT I MIGHT EXPLODE !! but pls sony take your time and make the next one a product of love because god these movies deserve it.
the witty humour in this movie is also great, it got some genuinely really good laughs out of me. and the way the voice actors play off of each other is so good, they have so much natural chemistry bouncing off each other. especially miles with other characters, they just really hit it out of the park with this one.
okay, that's all i have to say rn but maybe i might need to rant some more about how much i adore this film. and even though i saw it just 2 hours ago i already want to rewatch it again and again. it's just that good. it lives up to being the sequel to the first movie which was already a 12/10 movie imo.
tldr; GO WATCH THIS MOVIE! IF YOU WATCHED IT ALREADY, GO WATCH IT AGAIN! IT'S AMAZING!!!

Lmfao GOD HOW COULD I FORGET BUCK'S SCENES 💀
(In my defense though I've only Eaten Alive once)
Still though, his stuff and Inkubus' table scene have NOTHING on Mr. MC in general, good god 😵💫
Also yes I agree, the tastefully unbuttoned shirt was a nice little bonus 😂
I've only seen it once too!! I have been thinking about rewatching it lately though. But it left a lasting imprint XDD (To be fair, for most of that scene I was hiding behind my Jason plushie thinkin this is a little more of Freddy then I needed to see- but I did peak and uh yeah, some things stuck)
Absolutely agree XDD Its ironic, considering Inkubus is supposed to be a sex demon- but he has class, so we can't fault him for that XD
Yes omg XD It was almost enough to distract from the horrors... *sigh* if it weren't for his lack of eyebrows... XDDD

let's talk: canon events! how'd you get into the dream team? what brought you to dtblr?
oh god ok my like. origin story of how i started watching dteam is insanely convoluted so i’m going to put it under the cut and like. to preface i just need u to know i’ve never been normal about anything in my life like i am so completely incapable of having passive interests. that is really crucial to understand
ok. So. basically i’ve always been super into mcyt content, i was a Massive cube smp + cube uhc stan back when that was a thing, i was like. 12-14 at the time but i was on stan twitter, wrote rpf on wattpad, experienced the severe trauma of ccs i wrote about Finding my fic and talking about it very publicly. The whole experience. and then when cube smp started to die my overall mcyt interest heavily faded, i’ve still always been incredibly fixated on minecraft itself i used to be super into uhc and other competitive gamemodes but in terms of actually watching content creators that was like. something that kinda faded in and out i’d go through long phases of watching nothing at all sometimes for entire years then randomly get slapped by nostalgia and fall back into it and rewatch old series’, etc.
but anyway. i had other interests, i had a different main fandom, i was still on stan twitter (kpop twitter to be specific) when dream rly started blowing up and. All i ever heard abt him was negative. because i was. on kpop twitter where like everyone was just excited there was a New Most Hated Fandom on the internet so he was an extremely common punching bag and i just Solely knew of him in a negative light and i’d never actually watched him to form my own opinions because (and this sounds so absurd) i also had this very irrational Jealousy toward the like. “new wave” of mcyt stans in 2019-2020 because suddenly it was a COMMON mainstream fandom and it ABSOLUTELY WASNT back when /i/ was a teenager and at my peak obsession so therefore all i felt was very misplaced dislike because How come this massive fanbase wasn’t around when this was My interest ? anyway.
Then like. sometime still in 2020 ? my irl friend sent me a manhunt and was like u NEED to watch this (because all my irls know i am. Very abnormal about competitive minecraft content) and i was like. Huh is it time for me to finally watch this dream guy. and i watched it and well it was very inevitable i got hooked because manhunt is soooo comedically perfect in terms of how me-catered it is, it is Literally everything i could ever ask for in terms of youtube content so it was absolutely over for me and i binged the entire series over the course of like. a week. and at first i really did think i would just be a passive youtube fan, because again. all i’d ever heard about dream was that he was a Bad Person and therefore i really did Try not to get invested beyond just thinking the videos were good but ofc as soon as i finished watching every manhunt that was out at the time i moved onto other dteam videos and i just fell reallyyyyy really in love with their dynamic and it was like. MAN! i had to accept i was growing attached and i Wanted to know more abt them at this point. i watched every single video on dream’s channel by the time i accepted Okay im in too deep now i want to know more.
this is the part that is going to make me sound incredibly fuckin g crazy so i need u to just hear me out. so i started googling dream and looking at the dsmp wiki (because as a youtube-only viewer i knew Nothing about dsmp other than people on my side of twitter hating it) and i was so surprised to realize hbomb was a member i’m crying because i knew him from CUBE SMP!!!!!!! i was like whta the fuck. now i feel Obligated to care like this is my Past combining with the present… it’s like fate… so then. naturally. i Looked up like. Reasons Dream Is Problematic threads on twitter. because i was like if im going to do this i need to know what exactly i am going into here i want to know why this dude is so hated and i unironically went through every single thread and callout post i could find, looking at Every reason someone gave for hating him then looking up the original clip with full context and watching it for myself so i could make my own judgement of it and also looking into how he responded and that was how i realized Oh like 87% of this is exaggerated and the stuff that’s true is either kind of nothing or he seems to be trying to do better. And that was how i decided. He is just some guy who seems very well-meaning and is making efforts to Grow and Now i can allow myself to . watch his stream vods? i know ho w crazy this sounds im crying but u need to understand i genuinely waited to watch any vods and grow attached to his content in a non-casual way until after i was SURE no secret horrible misdeeds were going to catch me off guard and i’d realize i didn’t actually want to support him i’m fucking crying
and then naturally ijust got incredibly fixated on mcc when i discovered That and that was what led me to watching a ton of other streamers, i was never super into dsmp but i Did get very into watching non-lore dsmp vods and just. tons of vods in general. i got severely fixated on mcsr around this time too which was awesome until it Wasn’t and i made a lurker account on twitter like literally a priv with 0 followers where i only followed ccs because i didn’t want to follow them from my acct with all my kpoptwt mutuals and get Called a freak for supporting dream. i also kept up very closely with any drama/situations involving dream even before being on dttwt in any capacity because again. i just like to have full context for everything so this was like. when i was unfortunately a very active dwt2 user because that was mostly how i stayed in the loop with things and tbf at the time it was actually a pretty good place for nuanced discussion this was before it got terribly unbearable but. Yeah. i started reading heat waves “ironically” while it was ongoing like i was reading it bookclub-style with my dranti friends and pretending i knew nothing abt dream or george outside the context of the fic (I AM TERRIBLE) but i ended up getting curious about what other fics were out there and that was how i started reading dnf earnestly.
i didn’t start writing until wayyyyy later after i came out of the dream stan closet to my friend reyna (still the only one of my kpoptwt-era friends who knows i am. the way that i am) in like. mid 2021? and i got them invested in dteam too and then in december 2021 we made our ao3s + new twitter accts together and both started writing fics
as for dtblr in specific i am relatively new here i guess ! i have been a long time lurker as i’ve always preferred tumblr for fandom discussion compared to twitter but i was always too shy to actually make my own account andddd because i started on twitter and had exclusively used twitter in my previous fandom it just like. Came more naturally to me and it’s so good for fic promo i just. Accepted it. but then after october several of my friends and like at least half of my mutuals at the time all became antis and once i was back to feeling. normal about consuming fandom content in like late october early november i desperately wanted to have a place where i wasn’t being made to feel GUILTY constantly so i finally made an acct over here so i’d have at least one space where i could Talk Freely about fandom things without expecting 10 people to tell me to kms for it. (don’t worry i eventually did finally make a new priv and i’m no longer held hostage by ex-stan mutuals on twitter but it was ROUGH at the time like so many of my friends have told me they assumed i’d just lost most of my interest and was only still in the fandom for the sake of writing because i never talked abt anything anymore for so long IT WAS BAD I JUST FELT SILENCED but im free now i promise) so yeah.
but don’t worry now i am here less out of “i have nowhere else to go” necessity and actually just because i Do enjoy it and i prefer it immensely to maintwt i am so content now with basically solely talking abt fandom things here and on my privtwt and just using main for fic talk life is beautiful !
sorry this is really fucking absurdly long i am so normal
#incredibly long story but if anyone has ever been curious this is the Full lore of how i got here#sage.talking#ask

@urban-sith replied to your post “@urban-sith Ire do I have permission to go nuts...”:
go bananas with it, even
Bananas, you say?
But yeah Doctor Who aka a show about a time-travelling alien called the Doctor who travels through time and space in their blue police box (it’s bigger on the inside) yada, yada, I assume you know the basics.
I think the thing that makes me go nuts over this show is how versatile it is, because yeah that episode that I mentioned does slap (even though it has a weak subplot), but some episodes are absolute garbage.
That’s what makes this show so good. I feel like there are two kind of Doctor Who episodes:
Deep, emotional episodes that question topics like mortality, existence, power relationships, grief, identity.
Episodes that you have to watch in order to have a good fucking time and laugh at a weird moster of the week.
Like, I rewatched some banging episodes like The God Complex, which questions automatic authority and faith, and The Waters of Mars, which delves into limitless power and morality, or Heaven Sent, which is a complex mental maze to work through grief.
And then there are some episodes with farting green aliens. Or a space pig. Please remember that Britney Spears’s Toxic is played as an homage to Earth.
So it has some raw as shit lines, like the ones that I put in my WIP Wednesday. Like “The day you lose someone isn’t the worth. At least you’ve got something to do. It’s all the days they stay dead.”, “Sometimes the only choices that you have are the bad ones, but you still have to choose.” or “Good men don’t need rules. Today is not the day to find out I have so many.”
And then it has lines like “Do you mind not farting while I am saving the world?”, “Always bring a banana to a party”, “Don’t be lasagna.” or “Why are you running like a penguin with its arse on fire?”
This show can be super overwhelming, because the new Doctor Who (2005 - current) already has 13 seasons, so if you want to know what to skip lemme know (lmao, some episodes are trash (degoratory), not even trash (affectionate)). But yeah this show is buckwild and it’s both peak television and utter garbage and that’s why I love it.
TL;DR: this show is nuts you should watch doccy whomst

Top Ten (plus some) Movies Lore Watched in 2023
Before I get ahead of myself, Metropolis should certainly be on here - but I haven't finished it yet. Shameful, I know.
I considered just doing ten, which would've been bad enough, but then I thought I'd share even more unasked for opinions about movies I watched this year. It was a weird year, for me personally and for the world. But then. When it isn't a weird year? I watched a wide variety of stuff, not all of it great, and had lots of reactions I didn't have time to initially get down in writing.
Under a cut because I will not inflict endless scrolling on even my worst enemy.
BEST five movies (in no particular order) I watched this year. Highly recommend. You haven't lived until you've seen them:
Nope - It absolutely lives up to every bit of hype. It deserved more hype, actually. Jordan Peele doesn't fuck around except when he does but he really doesn't. Excellent balance of straight up terror, compelling characters, unpredictable moments, and subtle-yet-powerful social commentary. My personal favorite of his movies. (New to me)
And God Created Woman - Personally, I love a pretentious 60s French film about a woman's burgeoning sexuality ruining the lives of those around her (and imploding her own life). Don't examine me too closely. Devastating, feels like a fairytale collided with a small tragedy. Very tumblr-core, surprised it doesn't do more rounds tbh. (New to me)
Pinocchio - Guillermo del Toro can do whatever he wants forever. Nightmare Alley should be here, but I think I only watched it the whole way through in 2022. I was ready to cringe watch this but it captured my attention and my tears in the first five minutes. Stop motion is true cinema wizardry and we need more of it. The musical numbers felt unnecessary to me. (New to me)
Laura - Easily one of my top ten movies ever. Delicious film noir-esque murder mystery with sophisticated (for its era) gender and class commentary just beneath the surface. Striking dialogue, gorgeous fashion, and smooth, cool repressed characters who shatter at the end. Feels like it was written by Dorothy Parker, kinda. (Old fave)
Forbidden Planet - Ham-fisted Freudian/Jungian "psychology" filtered through a highly stylized retro sci-fi film overlayed on a Shakespeare play (but wait! There's more!). Gorgeous scenes, fun sex appeal, creepy monster, daddy issues. This movie truly has everything. (Old fave)
Akira Kurosawa's Dreams - Honorable mention. See how I don't obey my own rules? This could easily boot one or more of the above off the list, but I play favorites. I wish I had watched this movie sober, but the long, wordless scenes were extra impactful while I was high. (New to me)
New movies I loved, from most enjoyed to less:
The Menu - Fun, slightly camp, like a Bryan Fuller Hannibal episode but a feature length film. Stellar cast with brutal performances. Peak final girl energy. It's a Hannibal/Clarice AU fanfic to me - TO ME.
The Pale Blue Eye - We need more lowlight, moody, New England gothic films that are true to the spirit of 18-19th century American literature, even if not straight up adaptations. I got all the pleasure of reading a Poe or Hawthorne short story with an excellent mystery/true crime plot and, I think, one of Christian Bale's most underrated performances. Maybe not his best role ever, but certainly under celebrated. So much to unpack and paw over. It's a treasure chest, not just a treasure.
Asteroid City - Wes Anderson is a great director, I'm sorry, we just have to accept it. I was high when I watched it; I had so much fun tuning into small character moments. I can't make heads or tails of the scifi plot or 4th wall bending, and I'm not sure it was the THC's fault this time. But it has phenomenal rewatch potential, unlike a few of his other movies. I'm also going to unapologetically celebrate every halfway decent movie that isn't a reboot or franchise installment or toy-selling ruse.
Godzilla Minus One - Top three kaiju movies for sure. I felt the message was a little heavy handed, but only a little, and it's a freakin' kaiju movie so who cares. Godzilla was scary yet sympathetic, the characters were lovable, and the loss and tragedy felt almost too real. Needed more kaiju.
Enola Holmes 2 - Cute, high stakes teen mystery-action-historical movie. The first one was better, but this was a solid sequel.
Top TEN movies (no particular order) that were brand new to me:
Into the Spider-Verse - Again, I liked this less than the first, but it was a solid sequel.
Valerie & Her Week of Wonders - Love a movie that's like a waking dream/nightmare. Again with the burgeoning sexuality.
Paprika - I put this movie off for years, to the point where it didn't live up to my own internal hype, but it was still very good and I'm looking forward to exploring the rest of Satoshi Kon's oeuvre.
The Black Phone - I was surprised at how much I enjoyed every second of this movie. It was tense and sad and weird. Perfect balance of leaving the mystery intact. Creepy clown adjacent. Ethan Hawke should be creepy and evil more often, please, for me.
Malignant - James Wan doesn't always land for me, but when he does... Woo!
Leon the Professional - Well. I did say I love pretentious French films about burgeoning sexuality and tragedy...
The Notorious Bettie Page - After finishing, I thought, "This wasn't that great. Kind of a waste of time. What was that ending?" But then it stuck in my brain. Plus, the star's performance is incredibly gripping, I kept forgetting I was watching a biopic and not just... Bettie Page. Directing / editing was flawed.
Ginger Snaps - I have too many thoughts for this post. Teenage girl repressed violence burgeoning sexuality hunger as power, you get it, you get it.
Porco Rosso - A Ghibli movie I put off for years because I figured it wouldn't be that great. It was excellent and shot up into my top five Ghiblis.
Titus - 1999 film w/ Sir Anthony Hopkins & Jessica Lange. Images from this movie keep popping into my head months later.
Old Faves that I Saw with New Eyes:
Beetlejuice - [redacted]
The Black Cat - I watched this once years ago and though, "Lame. Boring. Two or three different plots that aren't speaking to each other." This time, I enjoyed how weird and ahead of its time it was. It's still 2-3 plots that don't speak to each other.
In a Lonely Place - Even Humphrey Bogart almost can't make this guy likable. Interesting gender stuff. Psychological portrait masquerading as film noir - or film noir masquerading as romantic drama, idk.
Batman Forever - specifically should be enjoyed back to back with professional wrestling, with a tough guy who lets his mask slip and indulges his inner child with you post-coitus. I know it's a specific vibe, I'm sorry.
House on Haunted Hill - Will make every list forever always. One of my top three films ever, I think. It's just so fun. I want Vincent Price to choke me out.
Nightmare Alley - I'm not sure if I first watched this in 2022 or 2023 but I caught the middle of it again just a few months ago so I'm counting it. One of del Toro's best. Highly underrated / under-watched. We should be talking about this movie more.
Spider Baby - This is probably the third of fourth time I've seen this movie. I love it more every time. Burgeoning sexu- *I am shot to death*
The Invisible Man - (1933) Fucking magical special effects for its era, hell even for today. We don't even see Claude Rains until the very end but he fucking delivers.

I'm already super picky about what I watch, cuz girl needs that high octane action animation to keep squirrel brain engaged, so rewatching something two or more times is a living hell. It's honestly why I like American cartoons a little more bc 15 minutes is about all I got to give for brain power 💀
ok winter as a ship name? even as a meh non shipper that is cute as fuck. It'll never end up end game bc lord knows Disney fans are ravenous about breaking creators to do their ships and nothing else (looking at you Starco shippers shame on you) But Hunter and Willow is just so...so refreshing. (we don't share super similar body types as I am a brick of a human with boobs) It's just so nice to see a possible love interest with a fat girl who's unapologetically herself. Like lemme live vicariously through Willow and Hunter bc sometimes being a fat chick is tiring and we just want cute boys to like us 😭
petition we run away together and live in the woods. I'll brush up on my mushroom knowledge and my butchering skills. We can rot away in peace from adulting bc god this shit isn't what I signed up for 😩
honestly that is super fair. i just like rewatching stuff because i need background noise for literally anything i do or else i will go crazy. so leaving out the anticipation of not knowing what will happen, background rewatch static it is.
i fucking adore willow. god the new haircut they gave her? peak. i love it. its perfect. and winter is the perfect ship name 😭 also bc i always think of willow being hunter’s spring after the winter aka his fresh beginning ahsjjsdk they make me so soft i adore it. god don’t remind me of svtfoe💀 the story had so many good idea but was absolutely destroyed by the disastrous shipping in it (and a lot of the execution; the whole plot point with eclipsa was so cool and then they never did anything with it lmao.) willow could 100% bench press hunter and scrawny boy is so here for it lmao.
god literally please i was not made for the globalised world😭 my family (especially my uncle) is super connected to nature and shit and taught me so many survival skills and like… society is like “great u can survive in the wild but can you make an excel spreadsheet?” this is bullshit imma sue. lemme be nourishment for the soil thats all i was ever meant to be smh.
#;momo’s rambles#;yuichi ro🌸#shipping can be fun i swear!#but god the majority of the fandom? awful atrocious i absolutely hate it#especially when u disagree with one of their takes#that a majority of ppl agree with#i have gotten death threats about it#idk why people cant just do this fun thing of#‘keep scrolling’#i do the same thing w shit that makes me uncomfortable#if u don’t like it#ignore it#bam#problems solved

My rating of Ninjago seasons so far
0. Pilot: personal beef with the fact that they don’t include this in Netflix, 8/10
1. Season: well what do you want me to say, it’s the classic but also very funny and how I remember Ninjago in general, 9/10
2. Season: now I feel like the second is a bit of a first rip off but anyways, 8/10
3. Season: underrated, loved it and I have no fricking idea why, the love triangle was very funny and I loved pixal, 10/10
4. Season: MY FAVORITE SEASON AS A KID but now that I rewatched it I’d say 8,5/10
5. Season: This is the season before the PEAK WRITING so I’m gonna go with 9,9/10
It was so good I loved it with my entire heart and sincere apologies to Morro, he needs a hug
6. Season: PEAK WRITING, PEAK COMEDY, PEAK CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT AND STORY, Jay felt very human bc he did A LOT of mistakes which is I think good to show in a series like that and also I loved Nadakhan AS A VILLAIN because he rlly made the viewer uncomfortable and that’s a skill so an absolute 10/10
7. Season: Bruh. 0/10. Absolutely boring and lame, I fell asleep so many times on this one, only thing helping me watch it was Acronix or whatever his name was, loved him
8. Season: honestly good for a reboot but not rlly good as the other seasons, a solid 7/10
9. Season: I don’t remember it and now that I googled it I can say that this season was even weaker than 8, despite all the praise it gets, 6,5/10
10. Season: bullshit I don’t remember??? 5/10
11. Season(Snake bullshit): Bad and boring but didn’t deserve THAT much hate, 4/10
11. Season(Akita and the ice emperor thing): I honestly enjoyed this season a lot probably bc I hate harumi and loved to see Lloyd move on but also Akita is very precious and ZANE VILLAIN OMG he deserves his villain arc, 9/10
12. Season (prime empire): now this is where I feel like the Ninjago writers caught the thought of their own show again, a solid 9,5/10 for the plot, characters and especially the dude who found out he’s in a video game
12. Season(The princess Vania and cole thing): Uh. Uhhhhhh. How do I say this? I couldn’t keep watching it was very boring and idk why so many ppl love it :(, 4/10
13. The island: eh, 7/10 I liked Zane and Lloyd
14. Seabound: GRRRRRR FAVOURITE SEASON EVER ITS SO GODDAMN GOOD NYA DESERVED HER ARC AND I WILL STAND BY THE FACT THAT ITS GREAT, I LOVE BENTHOMAAR AND ILL REPEAT MYSELF, ITS GREAT, 10/10
15. Crystallized: I loved it, a worthy end for the franchise and a good ending of some of the story arcs, they could’ve pulled out more but it’s a series for kids so it’s fine! 9/10
God, that was a journey. Finally finished this list after almost a year but I’m glad I did :)
