Peter Pan never grew up? Or did he just live..on another planet.. that had a time difference. So he barely aged but every time he went back, it was 10-20 years later on earth. Why else would he only able to be on earth for like 5-10 mins. I mean? It’s a fairy tale .. or do fairy tales have some truth? 😂

I legit think it was Mother Gothel's dumbest idea to tell Rapunzel her birthday.
Like dude you could have told her literally any other date! And then she wouldn't soo much have the longing to "go see the lights". No "I can't help but feel... they are meant for me." She would have the curiosity, even miss the lights on most years just become they were a "random phenomenon" or something.
(Rapunzel wouldn't have left for the lights then... she'd have still left for something else... but anyway...)
Gothel could have prevented the entire tangled movie from happening. Isn't that what you wanted Gothel?

society is spiraling and culture is a wasteland. i know this because i looked and most people prefer things that are fun and easy, making fun and easy things extremely popular. this is the first time that's ever happened, historically.

i’m genuinely of the belief that the megamind sequel/tv show was meant to premiere on nickelodeon in like 2011 alongside their other spinoff shows, but then got shelved after the movie flopped financially and has been sitting around in some archive gathering dust until peacock decided to release it as “new content.”
like, can we just look at the visual evidence alone?

he fits right in with this lineup. peacock, i’m onto you

Hey, do you know what the trope is when men, specifically in the cartoon medium, wear a red Hawaiian shirt with white flowers on it?
The only men that come to mind are Denny from Robots In Disguise 2015, Rango from Rango, and Master Fu from Miraculous.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I know for a fact that there are more but I just can’t remember any at the moment.
Is it, like, a reference to a really old trope in Hollywood?
Is it secretly symbolic in western animation, specifically geared towards the male demographic?
Do artists just like to draw it because men’s fashion is simply boring and they steal that one character design aspect from previous characters that they drew inspo from in the first place?
Am I reading too much into this?
I. Need. ANSWERS. PLEEEEEASE!

Just rembered that Stiles' grandfather is canonically named Elias and I'm just... why would they name Derek's son Eli? Why make him so sarcastic and similar to Stiles, distinctly mention him PASSING OUT at the sight if his fangs, give him that strangely close relationship with the Sheriff, and even go as far as to have Stilinski PERSONALLY GIVE HIM THE JEEP???
At what point does it no longer count as subtext?

Vault 22 was definitely... a choice for a first adventure together. That much can be said.

alright so, i just realized someing bear with me:
A. the opening scene of the Barbie trailer is a reference/ mimic of a scene from 2001: Space Odyssey, (cool amazing love some little girls going batshit)
B. the film that opens on the same day as Barbie, Oppenheimer (ew) is directed by Christopher Nolan (also ew) who says that 2001:SO was a massive influence on him and his films and he loves it a fuckton
so, in conclusion i believe that barbie intentionally put the reference in there as a power move over the film it's destined to curb-stomp at the box office

Het were achilles and patroclus cousins? It's never been said in the illad yet people say that patroclus's grandma is achilles's great grandma , even though the illad never says this??
Maybe.
Here's Achilles' family tree per my Caroline Alexander translation:
Tumblr media
I don't have a digital copy of Emily Wilson's translation, but it is relatively similar.
As you can see, Patroclus is not in the family tree.
Homer does mention Patroclus' father, Menoetius, a few times. He also mentions that Menoetius is the son of Aktor (or Actor). No mention of a mother.
Pindar suggest's Menoetius' mother being Aegina. Sound familiar? It should because Aegina had Aeacus who had Peleus.
Weird, right? Wouldn't that make Patroclus a peer of Peleus. Of course Aegina is a nymph and and nymphs are immortal, so a generation could have passed between her having her two sons.
I remain skeptical. I think if Patroclus had such a famous mother she would probably be mentioned by Homer as Thetis was mentioned. BUT THEN AGAIN these people were SUPER sexist so 🤷‍♀️
Here's the infamous Google family tree to explain the possible relation:
Tumblr media
Here's a better one.
What is that like first cousins once removed?
So given it's not explicit in Homer and the connection and understanding of other sources is dodgy at best, it's really a matter of how /you/ want to define what is canon.
Is your canon The Iliad? Is it the entire Epic Cycle which we only have parts of? Or is your canon all works of Ancient Greece?
I mentioned this in another post, Greek mythology is fucking frustrating for this very reason. We know of a bunch of ancient authors who wrote about mythology and they each had their own headcanons. And of course no two headcanons are the same, just to fuck with us some more I swear.
For emphasis, here's a summary of the different hcs for Patroclus' mother:
Tumblr media
But back to the cousin thing...
At least in various civilizations in Europe, marrying your first cousin was a thing up through the mid-20th century. Just Google search any European royal family. We mainly only now find it "weird" or "creepy" bcs of our modern understanding of genetics.
Google is telling me it was common in some periods and some areas of Ancient Greece. So if they were cousins, it most likely would not have been considered "icky" by their contemporaries through Homer. I mean those ppl in Athens created ritualized pedophilia so I think cousin incest is pretty tame in comparison
Many of the headcanons floating out there by all these dead famous white men are contradictory. For example: there are multiple versions of how Achilles gained his powers, there are multiple versions of Achilles' death. It can't all be true! So pick what you like and move on. Or better yet, make up your own canon for yourself! Don't stress about it.

I would like to take some time to appreciate how disgusting they let Scully be in Fight the Future. Like. She spends half the movie covered in dirt and the other half covered in goop. Every emotionally charged scene she’s in, she’s got messed up hair and a dirty face and the same clothes she was wearing the day before. At the close she still has facial marks from hypothermia and Alien Disease. And they finally show her sleeping without a full face of makeup on. Gross woman rights tbh
