The way Jack speaks of Nico with the same admiration he holds for his brother 🥲 that’s love baby
!! it's just. So Sweet. i wish we could get a real candid interview, article, something about them specifically like the media makes so much of the 1-2 punch, pillars of the franchise thing but it's weirdly underreported? and maybe that's just because they hate to see hot bitches from new jersey win— but it would be really cool to see. especially when you piece together old and new interviews where they talk about each other it's such an intriguing dynamic it's absolutely wild that they've never been put in front of a camera together
Do you get the impression the live action is treating us like utter morons?? Like I thought that making it aimed at an older audience would open the doors for more subtle story telling, but no, they're just using monologues to tell us eveything! Like in the second episode Katara's like 'oh his power isn't that he's the avatar, it's that he ~connects~ to people'. Girl we're not idiots we can see that!! And the first episode with Aang's goddawful 'I don't want this responsibility' monologue
THIS, YES. The word that keeps coming to mind is definitely "subtlety". The show for literal children? Had it. The remake for adults? Not so much.
Coming up short on finding people to help me get the old washers and driers out of my basement and also help me pick up a free piano I have my eyes on :( I have kinda run out of people to ask at this point and I'm feeling pretty bummed.
also i'm sorry but i'm still not over pep saying "he's just stronger than me" about klopp. i'm sure you know that firsthand from experience yeah? and i bet you like him being strong too. i bet you do
I'm just thinking. Luo Wenzhou gave Fei Du the psp...
Fei Du said when he was little, he didn't watch TV, just play games sometimes... I wonder if those were his happiest childhood moments? The ones where at the house with his dad he felt the most like an actual child, escaping into a game and for once in a while feeling like he's experiencing a normal childhood for a little while, and he associated it with Tao Ran giving it to him which associated it with all the moments spent at Tao Rans house (again escaping the home his mom died in and dad abused him in and living a normal childhood helping to fix Tao Rans appliances and doing his homework and being safe and cared for and loved). To Fei Du that game system probably means an awful lot. Is connected to the best parts, kindest safest warmest parts, of him growing up.
No wonder it's such a shock to hear from Tao Ran, that Luo Wenzhou actually got it for him. To learn that behind the scenes, for the past 7 years, Luo Wenzhou has been doing so Much to try and give Fei Du a normal safe happy life, a safe haven, a way to feel human.
if you want a music rec in response one that i like is behind my eyes by jackie evancho (it came on directly after hum hallelujah so i thought of you) it's very Different and has a... purity? clarity? that hum hallelujah doesn't have (which isn't a Problem just an Observation)
"and if you read between the lines you'll see I'm running from my mind" as one of my favourite lyrics
....gonna go listen to hum hallelujah AGAIN after this one tho >.> xD
OOOH i’m about to go to bed (it is 1am on my side of the world) but i’m saving that to my liked songs on Spotify and i’m going to listen to it first thing in the morning!! 💕
twilight was released in 2008 aka about a year after the ending of tkm and i just know that there were a bunch of girls fancasting jean's pale ass as one of the vampires
(bonus points if he is informed live on camera that there is a french one who'd be perfect for him to play)
I’m so tired of my physics lab group because it’s me and then a bunch of guys who went to the same Christian high school in the same town as my university and they just talk about guns all the time.
Today one guy was telling a story about his cousin who’s in Communications so the professors are more liberal so she has to deal with them “talking about pronouns and crap.” Same guy has a sticker on his phone that says “I support FREE SPEECH not ~POLITICAL CORRECTNESS~”
Of course they were all talking about the Citadel shooting in Nashville too and how the shooter was trans.
The human psyche is a fickle thing (many more nominally Significant events have transpired, many more frost heaves have erupted along the paved road of my life, I've gotten a LOT sicker in unanticipated ways with unanticipated consequences, and yet, my agenda for next neuropsych appointment is still "feeling betrayed by [redacted] for acting like the pandemic is over even though she herself is disabled; abiding by communist principles in theory, and very often in practice! but when push comes to shove the most painful part of this weird relationship has been acknowledging & accepting your mom's tongue-in-cheek nickname for her (Bougie [redacted]). Also how she responded to the situation with [nemesis] (doubt, disbelief, asking if you were drunk, if you might have just made a bad decision & be regretting it in the light of day). How if not the former, at least the latter can be legitimately & not-irrationally felt as some flavor of betrayal. The former -- irrationally. And in the future, on this, the centennial of one time history ended during the period we call modernity. How do we move forward (singular-we). How do we make it hurt less.")
pet peeve of mine for any qrow "theories" for v9/10 is that people think he'll just go "welp, i guess they are all dead. that sure is a bummer! let's go tell tai that his kids are dead and i have no idea what happened" like he wouldn't dive directly into the tundra to find if there's any trace of the kids in there
