I’m gonna say the one thing that I feel like everyone will agree on: season 3’s soundtrack is considerably weaker than season 1 and season 2.

#i needed to get this off my chest #season 1 had all the hits #istanbul? perfection #I think we’re alone now? iconic #dancing in the moonlight? fun asf #happy together? the superior version #don’t stop me now? always a hit #barracuda? slayed #season 2 was great too #season 3 was meh #we deserve get lucky #the umbrella academy #tua #tua s2 #tua s3 tua season 3 #the umbrella academy season 3 #sparrow academy

They all expected Stede to be mad and he's just...really disappointed.

Because they didn't trust him enough to tell him the truth. They didn't explain to him what happened. He had to hear it from Izzy, who lied to him. And then all he gets is Izzy going, "OK, Bonnet, give me your worst."

You're not fucking important enough, bro. You're not a member of his crew. You're not his friend. You didn't sail with him. You didn't trust him. And he's still gonna save your sorry ass, because life means more to him than revenge.

#ofmd #our flag means death #stede bonnet #rhys darby #gif #ofmd season 2 #it's a great little moment #stede needs to get more credit for saving the people who killed the man he loves #because he knows why they did it and how it came to that #because he loves them too

Suddenly remembering the best and funniest Good Omens fanfiction I ever read which was set at a mutual Heaven and Hell "work party" and all the demons had bets to see who could bed an angel by the end of the night. It was hilarious and of course you read it presuming that Crowley will win but be gentlemanly enough to not claim the prize - which of course is what happens, but at the last minute it hits you around the face by revealling that Beelzebub hooked up with Gabriel

and well.

I think I'm gonna go reread that fic...

#true story this fic was the first time i even considered ineffable beurocracy #i dont think i even knew the ship name until after i read that fic #I hope the writer is having a great day today #once my emotions have calmed down and I've stopped spiralling over the last 10 mins of GOS2 #I think its really gonna hit me that they made a former crack ship canon #BEFORE CROWLEY AND AZIRAPHALE #unbelievable #Neil Gaiman I do wonder if maybe you've spent too long on tumblr #you clearly think like one of us #lmao #good omens #good omens season 2 spoilers

i tried to write this ficlet four different times but i'm having a day so. take whatever this is.

aziraphale with fake vampire teeth. he loves them. crowley HATES them because you can just grow them angel, this is humiliating. i'm a fucking snake. i have fangs. take those things out of your mouth.

but aziraphale is doing his dollar-store dracula roleplay because it's halloween! he has to wear a costume when handing out the candy to the children!

"oh also crowley here's your costume-"

"i am not wearing a costume."

"you will wear the costume."

"this is embarrassing even for you angel"

(if there's one thing aziraphale is shamelessly good at, it's making puppy eyes at crowley until he gives in, and oh does he want him to wear the bloody thing)

"... fine. but you owe me" "yeah yeah just get ready"

and THAT is how soho gets to experience count aziraphale and his trusted companion, the bat crowley, who looks particularly dashing (and very much not scary) in a black turtleneck with tiny wings on his back. at least his eyes can be on full display, even if just for tonight, and the kids LOVE them so much crowley's complaints die down rather quickly. he might even have *gasp* a good time!

(and if it was more about getting him back into the turtleneck than the costume - well, aziraphale knows how to keep a secret)

#alex talks good omens #good omens #ineffable husbands #crowley #aziraphale #good omens season 2 #go2 #aziracrow #crowley x aziraphale #happy halloween and all #not feeling too great so if you see me going to bed at nine pm no you dont

Everyone’s rightly talking about Aziraphale’s face in this scene

But what about Crowley’s face in THIS scene

Look at that. Brow raised. Lip bitten. That is the definition of lust.

Damn, they are thirsty af for each other and it took two wonderful lesbians to make them see it too...

Jingles a little bell in front of you to convince you to do tasks.

[First] Prev <--> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #jin ling #wei wuxian #lan jingyi #lan sizhui #A-qing #Not tagging XXC its too mean #Season 2 is underway! This episode has so much going on but it's a great season start #I adore how the juniors bicker in the opening scene....especially jin ling #I know there's more to him wanting to help out than just the jingle jangle of the clarity bell but also #from the outside it really does look like wwx jingled a little bell in front of him and made him go from 'not helping' to 'fine I'll help'#I also have failed to capitalize on the fact little jin ling has a bell on him. It has meaning and emotional weight. However.#JC really said: 'this little boy keeps getting underfoot and lost in crowds. I'll put a bell on him'.#Its stated that *all* the yunmeng jiang disciples had a clarity bell. Which is 1) funny to think they all wander off at times 2) owwww #Also extra 'Owww' the audio drama adds with this scene is the weight on how wwx never got to give baby JL the bell he carved as a gift #That little bell can hold so much significance to so many aspects of these character's lives.#'Clarity' as an adjective here is also pulling some fun weight. JL slowly coming to truly see myx/wwx as someone more than the rumours #have made him out to be. Teen discovers that you should make your own decisions about someone! Good for him!#JL is a great character and I like him more than my silly little comic design implies.

another lovely thing about heartstopper season 2 i wanna say: i love Love LOVE that not only did they have elle find a trans friend group but one of her friends be a trans girl with a deep voice to show that that's just as valid

#personal crap #heartstopper #heartstopper spoilers #heartstopper season 2 #tbh i do get voice dysphoria so it's really wonderful that they show a trans girl character played by a trans actor whose voice does pass #but no one has to pass to be valid and it's great that they showed that too with naomi (and the head at the arts college actually)#transgender

Maybe I've just curated my dash well but anecdotally, I haven't seen almost anyone express disapproval of the Izzy arc in this particular way, which I would agree is judgy and unproductive. The main concerns I've been seeing (and hopefully expressing, although maybe not effectively) have been from:

People reminded of traumas/relationship dynamics reflected in Izzy and Ed's s1 relationship in general, or specific parts of it like Izzy telling Ed he was better off dead than acting so f*ggy.

People who feel like point number 1 is being retroactively minimized by the narrative (not the characters, the narrative) not acknowledging the role Izzy played in setting off Ed's Kraken era.

People who have seen their abusers get to control the narrative around harm they caused, which the narrative silence around points 1&2 seems to underline.

People who have been gaslit about their traumas and/or felt like the only person in the proverbial room who remembers that something harmful happened.

People who see Izzy suffering and then being granted grace, and walk away concerned that the message is being sent that suffering is the path to forgiveness, which would be a dangerous message period but is especially perplexing from this show in particular.

(I'm not here to argue with any of those interpretations if Izzy or his actions so save us both the energy, I'm here to talk about the post I linked.)

I can understand how, from any of those perspectives, the Izzy arc has felt like a sour note in an otherwise great season. I certainly haven't been able to engage with it as fully as I had hoped to do when I first saw hints of where things might go while watching the first episodes of the season.

I don't need a big speech or conversation about it all or even that much screen time devoted to it. But if the narrative wants me to buy a redemption arc for Izzy, the narrative needs to acknowledge what he's being redeemed for in the first place. When I talk about what's "earned" I'm talking about what the narrative has earned, not the characters. And right now, the narrative doesn't feel like it has earned more than me holding my nose to get through Izzy redemption scenes. And that's sad for me, because I've never felt like that about this show before.

I don't believe you earn forgiveness, or that you atone for your actions for someone else's sake. True forgiveness is something that the wronged party grants for their peace of mind. True atonement is something you do for yourself to make peace with yourself what you have done. Neither is "earned", much less through groveling or suffering. But both require acknowledging and reflecting on the truth of what happened, and that lack of narrative acknowledgement is the missing stair so many of us are having to learn how to work around when it comes to watching this season.

#and yeah I guess you could make some kind of metatextual argument about the missing stair #and how it's a perfect metaphor for Izzy the character too #which should allegedly make it fit within the narrative after all #but if that's the case then the execution is still lacking something and that makes me sad #because so many other things this season have been great!#our flag means death #ofmd #ofmd meta #ofmd s2 spoilers #ofmd s2 #ofmd season 2 #ofmd spoilers #ofmd season 2 spoilers #izzy hands #fandom #ofmd fandom #the discourse #the izcourse

I'm still not over it, so I'm gonna talk about it even more. The scene at the shooting range with the 5 main cast members? One of my favourite scenes from young royals, hands down. I loved the intensity of it all, that we see just how far the whole situation has been pushed to the point of that kind of violence. Plus, I think Edvin did a fucking incredible job in portraying his anger and rage, and showing Wille's dangerous and assertive side.

#Edvin is such a good actor honestly #like he did great in the field scene from season 1 #which i heard was improv too?#and now this scene #GIVE EDVIN AN AWARD #young royals #young royals 2 #edvin ryding #prince wilhelm #omar rudberg #simon eriksson #nikita uggla #felice ehrencrona #frida argento #sara eriksson #malte gårdinger #august of årnäs

It's alright everyone. As much as I would have liked Jay and Pixal to show up in the plot, it just doesn’t make narrative sense.

I mean, the season would be like one episode if they were there. They would bust in and solve everything with their insane strategy and power level, and then we just wouldn't have a show. So really, this is better for everyone...

Primal 2x10

Of course Spear pulled the ''I sacrifice myself heroically number'' and sacrificed himself, part of me suspected something like that, but didn't want to accept it. I won't lie, there was screaming and a few tears flowed. Btw, this was not the way I imagined Spear's and Mira's physical union, but it was still pretty darn touching (The episode, the whole season, not this weird sex scene) and our hero had a (relatively) worthy end. He protected the ones he loved.

And that moment when you see how the two little dinos have grown and Spear's and Mira's daughter, look at her, like her father.

#genndy tartakovsky's primal #primal #primal 2x10 #primal 2x10 spoilers #spear #mira #fang #don't touch me ... it's still too fresh #Season 2 was great ... but that doesn't mean I accept canon

Season 6 of The X Files slaps so hard. Going into season 6 knowing that the filming location moved from Vancouver to Los Angeles the show lost a part of its classic scenery and feel but made up for it in what I would say is comprised of some of the best episodes in the entire series. I mean come on....

Triangle: a banger

Dreamland I & II: both bangers

How the Ghost Stole Christmas: another freaking banger

The Rain King, Drive, Tithonus, Agua Mala, Monday, Arcadia, Milagro, The Unnatural, Three of a Kind, and Field Trip: ALL FREAKING BANGERS

#honestly even all the other episode are pretty good too #this season had the best stand alones of any season #season 3 is my other favorite season #seasons 1-7 are all great #season 2-6 are peak xf for me #the x files #random text post #just wanted to show my love for season 6 #they went so hard in s6
