I wish more people watched Person of Interest... I get why for some it'd be a difficult show to get into. it starts as a more contained, procedural-y thing than what it's slowly, purposefully setting itself up to become; you have to be willing to stick with it for the rewards, and you won't love everything they do and you'll have difficulty with several choices made and you'll turn everything around in your mind this and that way and this and that other angle... although I do love that about it xD

also: The Machine, Shaw, and Root are three of the most spectacular, outside-the-box female characters ever written and I'll always adore the show for it.

#other characters in the show are great but these three are TRULY one of a kind #one.of.a.kind #each othe them #they do NOT make them like this anymore!#talking to the void #my thoughts #poi thoughts #person of interest

https://x.com/pipeotanoup/status/1789710526206857335?s=46 Pipe cozinheiro do almoço de domingo, boyfriend material sim ou claro?

eu não consegui abrir o link but I JUST KNOW💋💫 que é o story dele mostrando uma feijoadinha (ou algo assim), e nossa eu penso em TANTAS coisas sobre isso. especialmente sobre um noivinho!pipe que é literalmente uma vibe de "tenho tudo sob controle", e não porque ele se esforça, mas sim porque ele naturalmente tem um q a mais pra cuidar/ser atencioso. é lógico que você como noiva dele não deixa a desejar, por exemplo foi você quem escolheu e decorou o apartamento que estão morando, literalmente, desde a cor até a compra dos móveis e decorações pela internet, além de ser organizada e ter um caderninho com as despesas anotadas.

o cuidado do otaño, em contrapartida, é cheio de charminho e cuidado. ele gosta de ser "o cozinheiro da casa", ama que você fique sentadinha no balcão enquanto ele prepara uma massa ou algo que você sequer consegue pronunciar e que ele aprendeu com a mãe dele (é cheio de chegar em ti só pra dar selinhos assim, acabou de refogar x coisa? um beijinho. pegou sal no armário? outro beijinho. abriu a geladeira pra pegar o molho? 😚), ama te pegar no colo igual uma garotinha quando é 1 da manhã e te dá sono - estavam maratonando bebê rena -, te levando pro quarto, ajeitando os travesseiros e te cobrindo, "já venho, princesa, vou lavar a louça e desligar a tv".

assim como eu disse em uma ask passada (não si lembrarei-me qual🤓), ele com crtz é do tipo que independente da ocasião (festinha, bar, almoço de família, praia) vai te abraçar por trás e perguntar bem discreto e baixinho se você tá bem, se tá gostando, se quer ir embora ou fazer outra coisa. além de que, qualquer coisinha que você precise ele JÁ preveu antes e tem na mão. "amor, lembrou de comprar o ab-", "uhum, coloquei no armariozinho do banheiro", "mas😔 eu nem disse o que era...", "linda, ontem você chorou assistindo batman porque ficou com dó de ele ter perdindo os pais criança", e você toda sem graça porque até em perceber suas mudanças de humor ele é bom.

e pra fechar com chave de ouro, ele é do tipo que fala do futuro. como noivinho!pipe, o pedido ele já fez, mas um dos passatempos que ele mais gosta é nos finais de semana que vocês compram alguma bebidinha e comes pra ficar de bobeira na sala do apê, imaginando em voz alta como vai ser a vidinha de casados, se vão ter dois bebês ou três, se vão ter cachorro ou gato, etc. cheio de fazer planos. e essas noites sempre terminam com você sentando lentinho pra ele - ainda conversando sobre as resoluções de futuro -, soprando que não vê a hora de poder chamar ele de maridinho e de ter a casa recheada com mini felipinhos correndo e brincando (e que vai se aproveitar bastante da situação pra chamar ele de "papai" também hihihi🤭🤤)

#.｡.:*✧#peço que venham aqui na minha casa me interditar pois n aguento mais #geniousbh thoughts #queria ser noivinha dele pra ouvir ele cnvsndo com alguém e dizendo “minha mulher consegue te indicar uma pessoa blablabla”#tipo mulher dele💋❣💯💄#pipe otaño reader #pipe otaño brainrot

I will never apologize for being anti harassment and anti censorship and if you don’t like or understand that then you’re free to block me.

I’ll never change my mind about those two things bc I have been against those since long before the days of the internet, let alone my time in fandom.

#I don’t plaster ‘proship’ or have a dni bc I don’t think I should have to do either #but I am definitely not an anti and never will be #I don’t think anyone should tell an adult who isn’t causing any harm what to do with their free time and creative energy #and have never thought wishing death on someone was appropriate #anti censorship #anti harassment #poi og #damn this blew up #100 notes #200 notes #300 notes #400 notes #500 notes

Hi okay so I rewatched the entirety of Person of Interest a couple weeks ago, which was fun cuz I got to revisit the characters I know and love and see their development knowing how they’re gonna change and grow as the seasons progress, and this time around I found myself paying attention to one character in particular:

Shaw.

After coming onto tumblr, I got to read a couple poi analyses, and the Shaw ones were always fun, so I got to see certain scenes in a new context! But, I also started seeing smth that I hadn’t seen anyone else talk about. And idk maybe I just haven’t stumbled across the right post, or maybe I’m reading into it too much, but…

She’s aromantic, right?

Like, that’s what we’re supposed to take away from her character, right??

She said it herself that she doesn’t ‘do romance’ and the only attraction she felt towards anybody really only seemed to be sexual; no lovey-dovey cutesy stuff.

And I know this could all be chalked up to her being a sociopath, but then there was her conversation with the Machine in ‘return 0’

“You always thought there was something wrong with you because you don't feel things the way other people do. But she always felt that was what made you beautiful. She wanted you to know that if you were a shape, you were a straight line. An arrow.”

THAT MEANS SOMETHING, RIGHT???

If nothing else, I’m headcanoning Sameen Shaw as aroallo.

#as a person who realized they were asexual only last year #and seeing shaw again through another lens #i feel like it would make a ton of sense if she was aromantic #idk these are just my thoughts but I haven’t seen anyone else discuss this so I thought I’d put it out there #person of interest #poi #sameen shaw #🎶song sings🎶

I think it would do us all good to remember of course that Shaw saw the photo of Root in the library, declared finding her her hobby, declared that next time she saw her she'd shoot her and "not in the knee" implying she meant something more lethal, and then shot Root in the shoulder instead

#person of interest #poi #sameen shaw #sarah shahi #root x shaw #shaw x root #and yes the latter instance was also having started getting with the program a bit #but she hadn't officially joined the team yet!#anyways smth smth the team all changed each other for the better. idk #but i feel like i talk about root and not enough about shaw wrt their relationship esp and i love shaw #unfortunately while i can somewhat easily summarize my thoughts about root #mine about shaw are mainly !!! like the pepe silvia meme #i do not have the words needed to express the level of love i have for her #but i sure do be having it and she sure do be making me absolutely feral

Build Jakapan Case Update + My Thoughts

It’s the middle of the night for me but I thought you all should know that it was announced that Poi and Build have settled in court. Both have published letters that agree and admit that Poi lied about everything and Build is innocent.

Here is Build’s Letter and translation:

And here is Poi’s letter and translation:

(Both translations done by @.yakibbb on Twitter)

This likely isn’t the end as her admitting her falsehoods will have to be a condition of the settlement and there will likely still be a hearing to nail down the damages she has to pay. But her settling like this confirms what I suspected for a long time: she has no evidence. Everything she’s ever accused him of came from her own mind. I suspected that from the start when she came out so strong and said she was going to sue him, and then just… did not.

I have some concerns. I will admit I haven’t been neutral in quite a while because Poi gave me no reason to trust her and every reason not to with her inconsistencies and Pinterest-picture evidence. I like to believe victims but i also firmly follow “trust, but verify” as a mantra. And I couldn’t verify anything she said. I could, however, see the inconsistencies and the coincidental timings and the conveniently cropped screenshots she shared as “proof” of him being so awful.

I digress.

I am concerned that since a mere couple of days ago she was slandering him live on TikTok that she won’t stop now, even with the settlement. I’m equally concerned that a settlement won’t be enough to clear Build’s name in the eyes of his neutral fans. I had hoped he’d take the case all the way so that the evidence would come out. But then again, this is a deeply private matter so I don’t blame him for wanting to keep his evidence private.

I have absolutely no hope that this will change the minds of people who are determined to hate him. But I do have hope that people who went neutral will see this and appropriately change their minds about him and this matter.

I am a bit concerned about what a case like this means for “believe the victim!” Since Poi obviously exploited that exact mentality as she defamed him, knowing it would ruin him to even be accused of something like this regardless of if he did it. I don’t think it’s a bad thing for more people to take the “trust but verify” approach… however I’m concerned that cases like this will be pointed to when discrediting real victims and dismissing their cases as simple misunderstandings. Because at the core of it, it seems like this was a messy break up that went really, really wrong.

I have no real closing thoughts here other than:

1. This isn’t quite over though I don’t know if we’ll get exact settlement details in the future.

2. I’ll be watching carefully to see if she actually stops with her erratic, defaming behavior or not. I’m not entirely sure she’s capable of stopping, so I’m concerned he may end up having to sue again if she breaks the settlement.

3. I think people need to be a bit more critical about believing people blindly BUT should still default to believing the victim in most cases to avoid using bad examples like this to discredit real victims.

4. This will do nothing to change people who are determined to hate Build’s mentality and I don’t expect it to. It was never about abuse for them, only blind hatred.

5. It’ll be interesting to see how Build’s life and career progress after all of this, especially juxtaposed against all the other Thai BL actors who are having problematic behavior come to light lately…

#this got longer than I meant it to #but I have many thoughts and this was just some #I also feel a soapbox about toxic purity culture and cancellation in me somewhere but that can wait for when it’s not 4am #build jakapan #poi #Build and Poi #build jakapan puttha #Build Jakapan case #Build

Weirdly shaped mouth

#dunno how many people here keep up with DTFA but fun fact! i was the one who gave mod poi the idea for Toshiro's design #aka Kizuna's shitty dad #since giving Kizuna this weird little mouth shape is just part of my design for her at this point i thought #hey maybe she gets it from her dad #she's gotta get SOMETHING from him #tho i feel like if she had this in canon she'd probably hate it #because of how much she cares about appearances n stuff she'd probably see it as something ugly idk #dra #danganronpa another #Kizuna Tomori #Minako Tomori #Toshiro Tomori #hyena scribbles

GOD ok I have to ramble

My dad and sis started watching Person of Interest about a month ago, and I wasn't there for the first but, and sometimes I'm not there to watch with them, but GOD. THERE'S THE QUEEREST VIBES?? BETWEEN THE 5 MAIN CHARACTERS (3 DUDES, 2 WOMEN), THE WOMEN KISS AND 2 OF THE DUDES GO UNDERCOVER AS A COUPLE MULTIPLE TIMES.

A BYSTANDER MAKES A COMMENT TO HAROLD ABOUT HOW GOOD-LOOKING JOHN IS, AND HAROLD JUST?? DOES A LIL EYEBROW ACTION?

anyway this is hilarious to me because of the actually super queer vibes and my ultra-religious homophobic family doesn't seem to have picked up on them EXCEPT to barf at Shaw and Root kissing.

But now Root is on the warpath to find Shaw because she *has* to be alive.

And my family's too invested in this series.

So (my parents especially) now they have to watch the rest of the show. Trying to convince themselves that Root on the warpath to Shaw is just gals being gals and it's HILARIOUS.

The fact that Shaw endured over 7000 simulations and not once was able to kill Root and then finally escapes and reunites with her (and the team) but ultimately loses her at the end (┛ಥ_ಥ)┛彡┻━┻

#like she killed the other team members including herself in those simulations #but not once did she kill root #and then she reunites with everyone and they do the whole last stand against SAM #and she’s the last one standing essentially #Fusco seems like he’s out #Finch is back with Grace #Reese is dead #Root (who would fake her death but would she really do that to a question her reality Shaw???) is dead #The Machine but she’s a newer version of herself #at least Shaw still has Bear #ne ways i’ve been having some thoughts about poi again #Sameen Shaw #Person of Interest

.

Although I hadn't been particularly following Build or the Kinnporsche actors in general, that show was my entry point into BL fandom and I still see a lot about it and the actors crossing my dash. I tend not to seek out behind the scenes or "real life" information about actors (with occasional exceptions of hyper-fixations on specific people) and stay well aware that I know next to nothing about what actors and their relationships are really like, that what they show about themselves is crafted and intentional and may or may not reflect reality. And so I was slightly surprised to find myself feeling emotionally discombobulated by the news coming out about Build and Poi.

I do not know what happened, and I offer no opinions and guesses on what actually happened, and who in their circles knew what. This post is about me, not them.

I have the urge, always, to know what's happening, to seek out information, to understand the truth of the matter. I thought could stay "neutral" about this, that is, not seek out information but calmly consume what came across my dash. But I just now filtered all the relevant tags I could think of. I want to understand, but the truth is simply not available to me right now. And may never be. And while a part of me feels like it's disrespectful to the victim, whoever they maybe, to not want to know the truth of what happened, the fact is my knowing or not knowing doesn't change a thing about their lives. They don't know me, I have no power over their lives, and that is how it should be.

I think I find this upsetting for a couple reasons. First, I did like Build as an actor. He was the one in the cast who's acting I found most compelling, who seemed the most skilled to me, and I have been curious to see what he does next. So there is that feeling of loss, or worry about loss, that if these allegations turn out to be true, I will not get that. Because even if he gets to keep acting (although the climate for a relatively unknown Thai BL actor is very unlike that for someone like CK Louis so I suspect if the allegations are true he wouldn't get more work) I would not be able to watch him anymore, and so that would be a loss. And, even though I hadn't thought I'd had expectations for him as a person (and even less so after I'd heard bits and pieces about previous bad behavior of his) I am surprised to find I do have a sense of betrayal about it. He does seem like a nice guy. I do like the way he presents himself, at least in the little bits I've seen.

And of course, abuse is just unpleasant. Thinking about real people hurting each other of course is going to make me feel unhappy. In fiction, it's safely contained, there's a narrative arc, and no real people were actually harmed, so I can analyze it, get in my feelings about it. But with rumors of abuse by real people, there is no catharsis available.

And then lastly, there is the confusion of it all. They both have bad reputations in some way or other, there is evidence presented that may or may not be credible, I'm getting everything third or fourth hand and through at least one layer of translation that may or may not be accurate. Fans have strong opinions on either side, "she is a known awful person and so she must be lying," "she posted photos so he must be guilty," and I get overwhelmed by the certainty they show, the stregnth of the connection they seem to feel for these actors and writers they don't know personally.

Most of the people I follow have much more measured takes, recognizing that we (that is, everyone outside of Poi and Build and their inner circles) don't actually know what's happening, but it's only natural to have opinions and guesses about it. And I'm finding that even reading those makes me feel like I too should know what's happening, even though I don't need to and in fact it's impossible for me too. My internal tension between, believe victims, accusations are rarely lies versus everything I've read about her makes her sound like an abusive harasser versus of course that doesn't mean that she's lying and abusers can also be abused themselves versus I don't know what stories that I've read about any of them are actually true. And perhaps a few of the facts I could verify, but, as I said above, it wouldn't help me understand much more and only make me feel worse.

I was reluctant to post anything, because I don't want to add to the speculations and unfounded opinions about this, or clutter up the dashes of anyone else trying to avoid the topic altogether. But I decided for my own sake I needed to get this stuff out of my head and onto the page, so here it is. Not sure if any of the words make sense or manage to convey what I'm feeling, but at least its not rattling around in my brain poisoning my mood.

You are all welcome to come talk to me about your feelings about this news, and how it's affecting you personally, although I'd prefer not to get speculation about what happened, or opinions on who is telling the truth.
