Okay, that Lucifer and Amenadiel vs. Michael fight was batshit insane. What a way to end the episode.

#lucifer netflix #lucifer morningstar #amenadiel #michael lucifer #lucifer season 5 #this was a crazy episode #it really put me on the edge with chloe getting kidnapped #and then it takes a whole new turn #the whole time stopping effect was insane #the visual effects on the netflix budget #it was so cold of mazikeem to betray Lucifer like that #god showing up was so unexpected #they were fighting like little children #i am blown away by this episode #you have me caught up in lucifer and chloe's relationship and now they pull this out of the bag #the ending to this episode had me hyped like 🤯

something. about. the horror of being sent on an impossible (death) quest and obligations and hospitality politics. the trauma of not having a home, and then the trauma of being in a house that becomes actively hostile to you, one that would swallow you whole and spit out your bones if you step out of line. all of this is conditional, your existence continues to be something men want gone.

it's about going back as far as I can with the perseus narrative because there's always a version of a myth that exists behind the one that survives. the missing pieces are clearly defined, but the oldest recorded version of it isn't there! and there's probably something older before that!! but it's doomed to forever be an unfilled space, clearly defined by an outline of something that was there and continues to be there in it's absence.

and love. it's also about love. even when you had nothing, you had love.

on the opposite side of the spectrum, this is Not About Ovid Or Roman-Renaissance Reception, Depictions And Discourses On The Perseus Narrative.

edit: to add to the above, while it's not about Ovid, because I'm specifically trying to peel things back to the oldest version of this story, Ovid is fine. alterations on the Perseus myth that give more attention Medusa predate Ovid by several centuries. this comic is also not about those, either! there are many versions of this story from the ancient world. there is not one singular True or Better version, they're all saying something.

Perseus, Daniel Ogden

Anthology of Classical Myth: Primary Sources in Translation, edited & translated by Stephen M Trzaskoma, R. Scott Smith, Stephen Brunet

#it's all greek to me #perseus #danae #komiks tag #long post #every other week i start to say something about how greek heroes are a good case study in diaspora and exile trauma #but man perseus makes me so sad. so does danae. she loves her son :(#perseus turning a whole island to stone is a huge mood. i would also do that if i were him #anyway (salutes) take care everyone i gotta watch yunho's new video it looks like a fucking movie im so excited #(i singled out ovid bc i remember the fucking shit perseus discourse that ran through this site. i remember #im preemptively loading a gun and pointing at it before it can touch this post #it hasn't died out either i see it on twitter all the time in the most ANNOYING ways possible i am TIRED #esp bc they're actually doing medusa a narrative disservice like congrats! you made it worse! stop telling me it's better!!!!)

i hate how commodity and capitalism has ruined so much storytelling . i hate how sequels and prequels and whatever else all ring like merch sales; i hate that i as an author have to include any social media following i have as a marketable trait; i hate that everything feels like a xerox of a copy of a dream of a memory.

i hate that my nostalgia has been turned into profit. i hate that companies fear consumer backlash so no real commentary may be made; i hate that companies care more about quantity over quality. i hate that so many artists and creators are being overworked to the point of complete collapse rather than being allowed to tell the story their way. i hate that every point of representation has to be fought for. i hate it i want us all to go back to living in a cave .

when you sit with friends over a bonfire and the night is getting long and people start telling this slow, almost hypnotic story - in this quiet voice, like they don't expect you to listen while they say the most fucked up shit you've ever heard - that is storytelling. who cares if the punchline is car hand hook door. storytelling has always been about community, about us all sitting in the dark, choosing to fill the silence while the last embers are dying. we forgot that storytelling is spellwork. hallucinating together, our breaths held, waiting for the ending we already knew was coming.

#this is specifically due to my rage and undying hatred of megacorporation #disney.#and specifically bc i think there COULD have been a really good series of new #dinosaur island t rex movies #if they had just fucking gone the distance #stopped with the fucking bad CGI #and made the whole thing about late-stage capitalism #do you wanna know what would ACTUALLY sell and work on the big screen more than a trex screaming in front of a volcano #(u absolute jerkweeds)?#so they've rebuilt the island and the park. but the narrative is 100%#that nobody wants to fucking work there and it feels AT BEST cult-like and insular. nobody is paid well for this #at EVERY possible place they are cutting corners. the dinosaurs might have higher walls #but the handlers are paid 5.34 an hour due to island laws. the corporation has RFID tags in their costumes which they are forced to wear #the employees are not allowed to drink water in 120 degree heat bc it would be upsetting to guests #u know real things i experienced working for disney #(but it was 8.90)#anyway it turns out the park CEO knew the risks and just didnt care bc bottom line BAYBEE.#it would be so much more sobering and fucking GOOD if it was like. scientists being like ''i am an environmental scientist''#''after the epa was slashed this is literally the only job i could find. i literally HAD to take it or i couldn't feed my family.''#''i hate what i do. i am disgusted by it. i literally CANNOT STOP because the company also charges us 400 dollars a week to live here''#the dinosaurs escape EARLY in my movie. like minute 45. and then... 1 week later #the park reopens.#half the staff are missing. they're just fucking gone. it doesn't matter tho the company tells everyone to work 2x as hard #that those people weren't loyal enough or they are tragic heroes bc they died doing what they love #and the movie isn't like ''wow dinosaurs scary!!!'' it's...#that in a global fucking pandemic disney kept sacrificing employees.#but it'll be disguised bc the pandemic will be dinosaurs.#this my beloved is what we call an ALLEGORY but unfortunately certain companies have never heard of them #allegories require critical thinking and that doesn't test well with audiences

still on my bucktommy bs, I'll be back to buddie but i'm too obsessed with tommy/lou to think about anything else rn lol

so here's a bit of something short I'm wiriting for 7x05 from tommy's pov, idk what this is, what it's gonna be, but I wanna finish it tonight or maybe by the end of the weekend so posting it here to motivate myself and also tell me what y'all think bc the more i reread all of it the more i doubt myself lol

___

It took him some time, plus a lot of self-reflection and just taking it one step at a time, letting himself look at other men, this time consciously and sometimes deliberately, noticing how hot they are, how they make him feel. He let himself feel how they make him feel. It took a minute to stop feeling guilty and ashamed, and to rework all those internalized prejudices that had been ingrained in him his whole life.

He gave himself time, a lot of time, started with just chatting with guys on dating apps, later got the courage for some casual dates, and when he met the man who would be his first actual boyfriend, his first gay relationship, that he genuinely liked, he felt ready to pursue that. It didn’t work out then, that’s just life, but it was a good relationship, because he was ready for it. Now he feels settled and comfortable with himself, feels confident, and knows what he wants. And he wants- he wants love. He doesn’t want to put any pressure on any relationship he might start, but ultimately, that’s the goal. Love.

He really doesn’t mind being this first to Evan. He likes Evan. He has those bright blue eyes that seem to shine their own light, and that wide, excited smile that makes it impossible not to smile back, with that adorable dimple accompanying it, that makes Tommy melt a little every time he sees it. Plus, those perfect, kissable lips he can’t wait to taste again, and the distinctive birthmark just adding to the charm. And he’s big and strong and so hot, too. And he’s just so nice, and so adorable and endearing, and he’s so easy to talk to. Tommy just wants to keep getting to know him, spend time with him, develop this relationship and see where it can go. And with any luck, maybe this one could last, could be something real.

The thing is, Tommy is ready for serious. He can take it slow, give Evan time to figure everything out, but he’d also like to know where he stands. He would never want to pressure him to come out before he’s ready, but he also knows he doesn’t want to be anyone’s dirty little secret. Been there, done that.

Still, he would be fine with keeping it just to him and Evan for now, for as long as Evan needs. But then…

Doctor who hot take incoming. A lot of people are like, “Doctor who has always been left where the heck did all these conservative complainers come from? I bet they’re fake fans,” and while I do understand this sentiment, I also think new who does have a more conservative bent in some areas than classic. This is an American perspective so take it with a grain of salt.

In s2’s tooth and claw, the Doctor and Rose, with help from Queen Victoria herself, fight a werewolf in one of the queen’s castles in Scotland and the Koh-i-Noor diamond saves the day.

Meanwhile in classic who s16’s the Pirate Planet, the Doctor, Romana, and K9 find a planet that travels across the universe pillaging and capturing other worlds all to prop up/extend a nearly dead queen’s life and increase her power. They save the day by destroying the bridge, as in what is controlling and allowing the planet to move like this, and the queen herself.

In new who, the spoils of colonialism and imperialism save the day.

In classic who, destroying the mechanisms of colonialism and imperialism saves the day.

I’m not saying this was an intentional shift. But it is noticeable and why I think some conservatives have gravitated towards New Who specifically.

And I realize the counter argument is that this is s2, there are 11 other seasons you can look at where they grew past this. But based on what I’ve seen so far I’m honestly not sure about that. (I just finished Hellbent) But that’s a whole other argument that can be saved for another time. My point is that in new who’s most popular era, the 10th Doctor, this is the subtext, intentional or not. And I am not trying to say classic who is some bastion of leftism. My point is more there is a nationalist bent in new who. So it’s not a stretch to see why it’s got conservative fans.

#doctor who #classic who #classic doctor who #new who #nuwho #Doctor who discussion #hot take #Doctor who analysis #I could also bring up the christmas invasions ending but I’ll leave it here cuz that’ll turn into a whole other thing #the pirate planet #tooth and claw #doctor who meta

an upside-down truth / a fallen star

#the dragon prince #tdp #aaravos #gif #aquanutart #hi i would like to thank everyone who said on my last pic 'i am reblogging this for the puffballs'#as well as 'your tags have murdered me' etc #truly made the whole experience worthwhile. i still can't tell if anyone got the joke but i no longer care #next in our series of 'it's 2022 why don't you make a brush' i should really make a star brush #instead of sitting there going dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot ...#even traditional art has a shortcut method for this (it's called putting masking tape on everything and then: splatter)#(advisable to do this first before drawing anything else...)#the good thing is it doesn't actually take a long time to do the dot dot dots it's just kind of repetitive #and you get bored and start writing about it in your tags and then it takes longer because you're not working #i listened to the ff8 soundtrack while making this #i had actually planned to listen to the triple triad music the entire time but #it turned out i couldn't take it for several hours #even though i quickly realized my mistake i ended up having triple triad stuck in my head the whole time anyway. i did this to myself #anyway i was determined to finish this before season 4 dropped #because i also had the idea three years ago and i need to post it before the new season possibly makes it obsolete #threw a wrench into my own schedule by deciding at the last minute that i needed to animate it and i don't know how to animate #then tdp kind of also threw a wrench by releasing the first episode a week early but it's okay i'm still basically in time #i'd personally like it if aaravos were someone who warps and twists the truth and/or has a warped perspective rather than outright lying #i'm convinced there's a meaning to the upside-down star arcana and maybe rotating the key of aaravos can unlock something ??#saying this suddenly gave me flashbacks to the rotation keys in skyward sword rofl what if he's being held in prison #by his own startouch marking being upside-down because it's out of alignment with the universe or something #TWO MORE DAYS let's GO i've been waiting three years to have my theories blown apart

AND IT'S COMPLETED! Last chapter finally posted!

The Torchwood team manages to get themselves dumped into the middle of the Korean War and have to struggle their way through injuries, medical staff, time anomalies, demon hunters, and more general confusion than even they're used to dealing with on the regular in order to find a way home.

Meanwhile the MASH crew get a bunch of British spooks who just may win for being the weirdest patients they've ever had, and that's saying a lot.

#torchwood #mash #mash 4077 #fanfiction #normally i only post when i start a new fic but by god i've been working on this one long enough that i want to celebrate finishing it #i am very satisfied with how it turned out and it was beyond fun to write - i really needed something this kooky when i started writing it #and going through afterwards to edit and get all the pieces lined up was an excellent way to unwind #and against all expectations there are actual people reading it? which stuns me? i thought this was going to be a For Me Myself And I sort #of crossover #so to everyone who has ALSO been reading and commenting: thank you - you sustain me you're magical people i am giving you all little kisses #also the number of people who only know one of the franchises or the other... wow i'm so flattered you'd try reading a whole crossover for #series you don't even know #hopefully it was easy enough to follow even without knowing hte other show bc both of them have such bigger cumbersome casts...#for anyone interested who is a MASH Exclusive sort of person - they finally show up in chpt3 #it takes a minute for them to get there but i promise you that they do and they get to cause all sorts of problems on purpose

Hey just wondering who is your favourite Julio Claudian emperor?

caligula, no competition. my bio on here used to read ‘full time cassius apologist, part time caligula apologist’

#fuck the rest of those guys. Nero can stay for a second tho I need to figure out what was up with the whole gender of theater thing #going on. he takes whatever Caligula is doing up to a new and also worse level. fascinating.#idc abt the rest. literally my brain turns off once Caligula gets assassinated. I would not be able to tell you anyone’s names past #him. I also cannot tell you anything abt the Roman Empire past him. Caligula is the hard cut off for me #ask tag

Sappy ReiMobRei Marriage ... 'ficlet' (?)

Reigen & Mob "marry" in a small circle of friends and family, the one's who they trust, who accept them.

When they have their kiss, soft and tender, all the bouquets start to flourish. Every last closed bud blooms open within a few quick seconds.

Some of the guests think it's a planned stunt, there's cheers and applause. Ritsu thinks it's tacky, must've been on Reigens insistence.

But Reigen himself is confused for a moment. And when Mob reacts slightly embarrassed & apologizes and it dawns on him that it was simply his feelings overflowing, Reigen can't hold back his own either. He's so touched he doesn't even try to find an excuse for the tears. He just takes Mob's face into his hands & kisses him more & Mob puts his own on Reigen's kissing back & there's hiccuped laughs between their lips.

This just hasn't happened in years. Mob is well in his 20s by now & hasn't had issues controlling his emotions or powers in a very long time. This is a thing of their past, of all their overwhelming first times.

Well, it is the first time they marry.

And in this moment, if this is how much Mob loves him back, Reigen can sincerely believe it will also be their last.

#reimob #mobrei #mp100 #mob psycho 100 #I'm sincerely embarrassed by my feelings for them...#I've been used to 15 years of emotionally stunted psychopaths & other tragic/stupid/both gays #and even with mp100 the whole fucking premise of the show is Mob being shit at dealing with his feelings #but damn is it new that by the end of it these two idiots have actually become better at dealing with them. wow. such innovation #guess my brain takes it as a free pass to dump all the fluffy things my other ships miss onto them and turn it up to 100% fluff

I am heavily contemplating on buying myself a dvd player soon and buying all the DVDs for a ton of movies and tv shows I grew up watching cuz I miss the magic of dvds

#hear me out on this one okay. but the Barbie movies were magic on dvd back in the day #and I do wanna see if stores are still selling the old strawberry shortcake dvds before I go online for those #I wanna snort that nostalgia so bad #and of course I’ll need to get the dcau on dvd #like all of it cuz I’m so bored with the dccu since we don’t get as much new stuff #it’s always Batman or superman and love them but I’m kinda bored from always seeing a new bman or sups movie #Wonder Woman I wouldn’t mind a new actor for her but I know she’s not gonna be a muscle mommy which I’ll be sad about #give me a Wonder Woman that is built like rhea ripely god damnit #the flash is eh cuz I found out this whole time I’ve been watching the Wally west flash #but yeah Wally is who I want and then there’s the green lantern like dude is so cool iams all we have is the 1 from 2011 I think #sure I could watch some of the tv series they have but I have too many shows on my watch list it’s overwhelming at times so I skip over lots #tho I will have to pray like crazy cuz some of the things I know I want are probably gonna be expensive as fuck even as second hand #saw a class of the titans season 1 dvd going for $81 cad 💀💀💀#the world is not kind to those who don’t love the digital age #I prefers my dvds cuz I own it and no one can take it away from me unless they physically steal it #omg I’m turning into my grandma cuz she still had the vhs player with some tapes too #just wish she never donated the tapes for swan princess 1-3 and Anastasia and ferngully and basically all my faves that she owned #like Ngl a part of me wants to hit up value village just to see if maybe they’re still there or if I’ll find other copies of the same things #cuz a perk about cities with older people is that you get so much older tech and other items it’s insane

I'm curious... Granny April will always be Granny April, but how do the turtle tots see Casey Marie? Since you said they know most of their family history, does this mean they know Casey wanted to train them for war? How do they feel about this? Are some of them still a little resentful or are they already at peace with what happened and are ready to have a relationship with her?

The tots actually know April has a daughter! Even if Mikey makes a sour face whenever she does, April talks about her kid to the babies and tells them that they have a cousin. Even if the kids are aware of her existence growing up they don't really question why they've never met Casey because they know that New York is still somewhat of a war zone and that their cousin is basically the leader of the rebellion so she's definitely busy (she's somewhat of a very stranged family member since the start lol). The kids never truly talk to Casey until they are adults though. Mikey felt very strongly about them being old enough to decide if wanting to meet her after knowing she created them for war and all.

Since Michelangelo was actually able to save the babies from a child soldier life, the kids are rather forgiving of what Casey did because in the end that didn't happen and by this time Casey actually is remorseful of her way of thinking when creating them and just wants to get to know them as a family member. It takes a bit of time though (the kids, even if willing to forgive her and move on, are still very much on high alert around her (cough Uno and Moja cough). After all, they know of Mikey's life story and feel a sort of kinship of anger directed towards her (It fades away in the end though).

Definitely not resentful but still not the most buddy buddies straight from the start.

#i feel like i need to make a timeline chart at this point #so explaining more #the rebellion wins back new york a few years before the kids turn 18 #thats actually when april starts visiting mikey and the kids in japan #so before that. casey for the first few years had no idea that april was communicating with mikey and the babies #but after casey finally decides to focus on leading the rebellion #april tells her about them (the kids and mikey).#but for the sake of mikey and his good mental health they decide that casey is not to communicate with mikey or the kids just yet #SO #after april starts going to japan is where april starts talking with mikey on how they would plan the whole telling the babies the family #lore and how they came to be #so when the kids get told #they do want to meet their cousin because. these kids didn't grow up traumatized and they are just curious of their cousin #and they know casey has no ill intentions anymore (april and mikey told them this)#it takes a few visits from casey trough the years but they end up having a good cousin relationship!#enough that mikey feels safe enough with going back to new york sometimes now that its safe (with the kids of course)#and after seeing the kids actually having a good relationship with casey marie (not being scared of her) mikey also starts to develop #the nice uncle and niece relationship they had years ago when casey marie found him.#its all coming together in the end #im so happy for them #just realized that i continue calling the kids kids even when they are told to be adults #this is just like when a parent keeps calling their kid kid even if both parties are very old #peepaw and babies au #ask

The huge irony in The Little Mermaid (1989) essentially being about a teenage girl who desired to be understood by those around her, so she went to a drastically different society in order to achieve that, and it's one of the most misunderstood movies that Disney has ever released. Disney Princess movies already get a bad rap, but this movie, in particular, gets the worst of it. It's truly amazing.

#disney #the little mermaid #meta #disney meta #txt #the reputation this movie has earned thanks to the pretentious dipshits who tore this movie apart for no good reason led to the stupid #useless changes in the dreadful remake #ariel never left her family or the ocean just for a boy she already longed to be a part of the human world #she had a WHOLE SONG about it well before she even laid eyes on him. jesus christ #eric was the catalyst. he was the final piece that united everything #he was like the bridge in this movie. he is a representation of the beauty (literal and figurative) ariel sees in humanity #but she also views him as someone who can understand her. that was the point of his character and the remake did not understand this #listen i know a lot of you are more into the “spiritual twin” kind of couple and that's fine #but they didn't have to have EVERYTHING in common in order for them to like each other #the point of their relationship is that they were indeed from different worlds (again literal and figurative) but he still seemed so close #to her #that was the purpose of his character. the final push for ariel to say “i'm gonna take the risk and go there”#it was about her wanting to be understood and that is precisely what eric provided #the new version just turned him into the male version of ariel which minimizes the point of his character #that's why their way of showing that he would definitely understand her but considering how ariel viewed the human world #she wouldn't have been as excited then lmao #if anything it'd been more logical for her to take eric away from there lmao #i went off tangent #but yes it wasn't just him tho he became a part of that desire. the piece that was missing. the final push
