arcane s2 stans who shit on any act of zaunite retaliation against piltover but defend the use of the gray are the same type of people to watch Andor and say Luthen was just as bad as the empire and he should have fought an active fascist regime with the power of peaceful protest

I truly believe that none understood the doctor more than Rory Williams the man that never shied away from telling the doctor exactly how dangerous he is how unhuman he could be but still saw him as his family and loved him like his family , Rory is one of the few companions that saw the doctor for who he truly was with all his faults and still accepted him and let's be honest Rory is the most similar companion to the doctor
it really frustrates me to think about how people are inevitably going to take Remmick’s one (1) singular statement about how much he resents the way the Irish were colonized and forcibly converted to Christianity and use it as fuel for “actually he had a point” and “he was right actually” and “he’s not really the villain here” posts, when the whole point is that Remmick is, through the vampiric hive mind he’s creating, forcibly assimilating people into yet another manipulative and parasitical system. he doesn't value the cultures of the people he assimilates—notice how all the vampires he turns dance to his culture's music using his culture's dances, and how he only uses the languages or knowledge other vampires have to offer when he needs to manipulate someone. Remmick is extremely transparent about the way he sees the people he turns as resources to exploit.
he’s perpetuating a cycle that he claims to hate and resent, and I think the movie is pretty damn clear about the fact that he doesn’t see anybody as valuable or useful to him except as prey and as pawns—otherwise he would just, you know, focus solely on people who actually consent to being turned. but he looked sad in that one scene and he’s an apparently attractive white cis man so people are gonna bend over backwards justifying all the harm he did.
if you have any helplessness anxiety about the current state of the world right now please for the love of God do not watch Rogue One
My favorite flavor of character is the hardheaded booksmart female sidekick character but not in a "I'm not like other girls way" but in a "I understand their sensitivity and their feminity and the way they channel their trauma and the way they cope in a way no one else does and their just babies really and shouldn't be responsible for these stupid boys." And this makes me want to gatekeep them because so often in fandom spaces male characters are over glorified, over analyzed, and the female characters are there to either fight them, fuck them, or make them feel better but no one's doing that for the girls.
Examples of such characters include:
Annabeth Chase
Hermione Granger
Leia Organa
Katara
CJ Cregg
And to be clear I HAVE seen fandom spaces where these girls are given the love they deserve and some of it is definitely to the fault of their writers. ALL THAT BEING SAID, I'm really tired of seeing so many potential ways to dive into characters and watching it be ignored by the fandoms.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk
Close enough. I love you nurses on the Tardis <3
Me, feral and foaming at the mouth as security hauls me off the Doctor Who set: "YOU LEECHES!!! YOU CAN'T KEEP THE WARDROBE ROOM FROM US FOREVER COWARDS!!!! SHOW US THE COMPANION ROOMS! WE WANT TO SEE BELINDA'S ROOM, RUBY'S ROOM, EVEN THAT ONE ROOM THAT'S JUST A VOID WITH A CHAIR IN IT! YOU CAN'T KEEP THE TARDIS'S OTHER ROOMS FROM US FOREVER! WE HAVE RIGHTS!!!" (bites a guard and vanishes in a puff of chronon particles)
rule one: the doctor lies
:3

the close-up shot on Fiyero and Feldspur’s legs as they walk into Shiz proper kills me, you’re telling me those two are so in sync they’re literally in step with each other even off the saddle? Fiyero struts about the place like a stallion cause his bff is a Horse? Is he wearing blue so they match??
Okay, but hear me out - In the movie, the sequence of the scenes where Elphaba learns about the horrific treatment of Animals and then meets Fiyero is soooo important. This transition between the two scenes highlights an emotional turning point for Elphaba. Dr. Dillamond's revelations intensify her awareness of injustice, leaving her searching for a way to act. Enter Fiyero, who not only contrasts the bleakness of the previous scene with his carefree presence but also will ultimately influence Elphaba's growth. As we know, eventually Fiyero is a foil to encourage Elphaba to transform her ideals into action, giving her the courage to make her voice heard. The scene order underscores how pivotal Fiyero's presence is in shaping Elphaba's journey from bystander to the unlimited badass she becomes later on. And Jonathan Bailey's version of Fiyero is much softer and is given a lot more space to be kind than stage!Fiyero, and I just really love how that, in contrast to the cruelty described in the previous scene just highlights the differences but also ties them together for Elphaba's story.
Cynthia and Jonathan singing as long as you're mine will simultaneously fix me and make me so much worse

having feelings about Josh and CJ both having tunnel vision during the transition stage between administrations, and both Danny and Donna use the same talking points on them.
on brothers

Okay so like I had a thought of like professional and platonic connection that really lends itself to devotion, both couples sort of have this thing where they match each other on a frequency that no one else in the world does. And there's the power dynamics of it all. Within sydcarmy, though they are technically partners, Carmy is still her boss and is at this point classified as a famous chef, while she's sort of an up-and-coming ingenue. And he continually says over and over that he'll listen to her and then he doesn't. But he still needs her desperately. It's the same thing with joshdonna, Josh has always been donnas boss, despite how much their professional relationship is more like a partnership than anything, she is still his assistant. And Josh is the deputy fucking chief of staff, he's a political mastermind, and again she's an aspiring political operative with half a college degree. And she asks for progression in her career and doesn't get it. But Josh still needs her deeply and desperately. And then there's the parallels between the industries they work in. Both of which are time consuming and mentally taxing and are all about "serving the people" And narratively there's a similarity, as there's a point of breaking for both guys, and then there's a point where both girls get fed up and then there's a divorce era. Also both boys have dead siblings and a found Family.
joshdonna and sydcarmy are incredibly similar and parallel and I would like to talk more about it but idk if anyone cares
