the more i think about Oppenheimer the more disappointed i get because at its core it’s such an interesting story to tell. like the whole manhattan project catapulted the entire world into a new atomic era that we could never go back from whether we were ready for it or not. and the fallout from the project not only changed and devastated the lives of hundreds of thousands of people (including of course the victims in hiroshima and nagasaki + the people living in new mexico where they tested the bomb) and the continued generational trauma of the bombs. also just the general mass panic and fear that the Cold War instilled into every citizen in the states who were literally waiting to one day be just annihilated by a nuclear attack. the whole creation of the atomic bomb had so much impact on the world. so doing a deep character study of both oppenheimer and his colleagues on the moral ambiguity of their work in the project and the outcome of it is such a great movie concept. but the film didn’t feel like that at all. instead Nolan gave us the watered down story that he’s best at and spent almost three hours forcing us to watch whether oppenheimer had to lose his disneyland government fast-pass due to his communist ties or not (spoiler: he does) and how strauss doesn’t like him because he got his feewlings hurt once. all the other scientists and physicists were given one or two minutes of screen time and were really just names to a face. the actual bombs creation was given a sidelong glance and trivial explanation at best. and of course to tie it all off the main female side characters were either naked/having sex for 80% of their screen time or was given the character depth of a piece of tissue paper

don't mind me just thinking about the intimacy of someone repairing/inspecting someone else's android parts and mechanisms,,,

How did you read the post-destruction fic I’ve been working on before I even put the words from my brain on the page

so you’re asking for some prompt ideas :) that’s great ! i love your small dark comic and hope to do more (i love the lore) but i was wondering if you could the captain being angry or mad or smthg and hold dark wrists and says don’t. basically that scene in iswm. Or some Mack stuff thanks!

“I’ve almost got it, Captain!”

‘Take your time. No rush.’

OKAY ONE LAST DON’T MEME. ONE.

Also extra heads up, I won’t be making comics for every one of the requests I actually pick. I have no idea how I kept up the momentum, but I’m pretty close to hitting burnout again lmao. 

(For the record I did want to do the Mack stuff, but this started as a sketched out meme and ended in a comic because I’m insane. Also vaguely inspired by one of my other asks which involved some of the characters playing cards at the end of the universe.)

I wouldn’t fuck with the Courier on like a normal play through but especially not after they go through the Sierra Madre.

I know for a fact that after that, anytime someone tries to fuck with them they just give them “I will kill you with a hammer” stare. Cause in all fairness an experience like that would make me want to kill someone with a hammer too.

the irrevocable damage that must’ve happened when joel lost sarah. I’m stating the obvious here but like. that broken watch stays broken forever. there is no toolkit for a potential repair. there is no mending that kind of wound. the very structure of joel’s identity was pillared by his role as a father- a role he internalized- and that frame of identity was shattered the night sarah died. when something so tragic like losing a child strips away your whole sense of being, like…how do you breath air. how do you taste food. how do you feel anything but a jaded shell of a person roaming the earth aimlessly

i swear if i have one more shen jiu thought today i’m walking over to the granite countertop and biting until something breaks

Everybody in Penacony: Oh is this your girlfriend, Firefly? Your wife? Your lover? The apple of your eye? The girl you would kill for? The girl you eloped with in Penacony? That Firefly? The one you got that ring for? Man it’s nice to finally meet you Firefly what are your intentions toward our train’s resident raccoon? Please be our in-law

the bridgerton writers really said we can delete racism because our white woman lead needs a poc to SA and manipulate into staying with her but we’re gonna keep homophobia because otherwise it’s just not realistic

to anyone dealing with ptsd, has there been anything that has helped relieve some of the symptoms?

reading lord of the flies is like: here are the attractive people that everyone listens to. here are the uglyass bitches that everyone hates.

i will ALWAYS love seeing, in movies/tv shows, the things parents will do to protect their children. joel shooting any and everyone he encounters without mercy or hesitation in order to save his babygirl will forever give me chills. you could literally see the very moment when joel decided that they all were going to die. he chose ellie over humanity and he would do it every time.
