Wuthering Heights:
I find Heathcliff's treatment of Linton more appalling than his treatment of Isabella. Other readers often seem to view his abuse of Isabella as his darkest hour and not care as much about Linton because they don't like Linton. But to me, while of course what Isabella goes through is horrible, there's something more uniquely horrible about Heathcliff abusing his own mortally ill teenage son. It doesn't matter that Linton is an unpleasant person: he's still a dying teenager and he's still Heathcliff's own child. This more than anything else is why Heathcliff "stands unredeemed" to me.

馃敟 Cassandra opinions
I use a picture of her with a flower crown as an icon/avatar on some of my private socials lol also I introduce her as "my wife" when people I know approach the games for the first time. I love her to death
But she's fucking terrible. Asking a non human inquisitor to welcome the Maker in their pantheon? Using violence on Varric out of frustration? Also, I'd love her to explain to us what happened to Dairsmuid's circle, since she has been the right hand of the Divine for a while.
We put her on a pedestal she doesn't deserve. I love her, I'll reiterate it forever, but she did some nasty stuff and we need to acknowledge that

No disrespect to mutuals-only blogs. I use to run this blog under that same style back when it was a tertiary account and not my strongest muse.
With that being said, I'm actually really enjoying my current style of selectively following but still being open to all interactions. Yes, I miss things - like opportunities to interact - because I'm not seeing them on my dashboard. But my fear-of-missing-out is much better than it was before, and with it being virtually gone my negativity has gone down too. I'm happier, more content with the blog, and vibing along. Plus, it's not that hard to pull up blogs I do genuinely take interest in but can't follow for whatever reason and just do a lil back reading once in a while. I might be late to the show but I was going to be anyway.

馃敟 Action scenes?
Keeping an action scene engaging is hard or at least a lot of recent films have struggled to hold my attention recently. Part of the problem is that they're big CG smash-em-ups shot in ways that are incomprehensible due to too many cuts or too dim lighting. Another problem is that they often propel the plot but not character. They don't reveal anything about the way the character thinks or relates to the world and thus feel kind of flat.

How do you feel about the new upcoming Pokemon anime? I'm quite interested by the new designs. Here's the two designs that interest me the most. Also, here's a link to the trailer!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I liked both of these!
A few notes:
(1) The design for Latios/Latias doesn't seem to have made it to the final version. This was because one of the Pokemon company people who actually worked on the anime came to the design team with his thoughts on how this character should look and it had a big influence on the final design, which they liked a lot. They ended up just leaving Latios/Latias alone, but then when they designed Latios/Latias they wanted to go back and add some things like a darker blue color scheme for Latios, more white markings, a bit of a horn, a bit more of a "dark" color for Latias. (I like Latios/Latias as is; I'm a huge fan of "punchy"/somewhat unhinged-looking characters with more white than anything else on their color schemes. I guess if there's an example of this in the Pokemon world it is the "Pikachu/Raichu" line, or if anything Pokemon Gen 6. In the future I would love to see an anime focused on thematically different kinds of unhinged characters like they had with Gen 4's starters.)
(2) I've heard from people who have actually been working on the show that this animation style is very different from any previous Pokemon show. I don't know how to feel about that. (On the one hand, some people say that this style works better than others, so it's not necessarily the case that the style of the show will stay this way all the time. On the other hand, many people have expressed fears about animation styles becoming too different from the previous style, and this has certainly already happened in a lot of Western animation, so it would make me nervous if the anime went in the direction of not looking like any of the other ones.)
(3) I also liked the trailer, which was weird because I'm not super fond of CGI-animation or computer-generated imagery generally. The fact that the animation in the trailer seemed much better and more "real" than in other trailers in the series did not reassure me.

Unpopular opinion: why is emet-selch a sexy man?? All this fanart makes him look hot and then in game hes looks like a wojak meme
Sorta agree, but you gotta understand that he's a sexy man bc of his personality. I wasn't a fan either and then that fucker stepped out of the shadows and did a dramatic pose and he fucking got me. Instant KO.

Should I pick a fandom?
Okay, I'll pick... Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
I think Quasimodo and Esmeralda are mutually better as friends then as a couple, and I think the fandom is too hard on Quasi for his supposedly "toxic" feelings for Esmeralda. Yes, it's true that he doesn't relate to her as an equal the way Phoebus does, he idolizes her as an angel and sees her as better than himself. But Esmeralda doesn't relate to Quasi as an equal either: she pities him too much. When she rescues him at the Festival of Fools, she calls him "this poor creature" (dehumanizing) and "that poor boy" (infantilizing). Why are the fans so quick to cry "toxic objectifying" when he innocently calls her an "angel," yet don't seem to care that she calls him a "creature"? Just like she needs a partner like Phoebus who loves her as an equal, neither a "Madonna" nor a "whore," Quasi needs a future partner who loves him as an equal too, neither a "monster" nor a "poor boy." Esmeralda is more of a nurturing, protective older sister figure to him, which isn't a good basis for romance on either side.

馃敟art and/or htf
as always, when you give me a choice of two topics, i choose to do them both 馃榿
on art, my most controversial opinion is that giving unwanted/unasked for critique to artists is rude as fuck, and the easiest way to scare off casual or beginner artists. we've all seen the memes about the young artist who can't take critique, but i am of the firm opinion that they should not have to. art, first and foremost, should be fun! it should be enjoyable for the artist! and maybe it's just me, but nothing sucks the joy out of me faster than when i work hard on a piece, really like it and am proud of it, and post it, just for some random to give their unsolicited advice about what i "should have done" or point out some trivial mistake i made.
(i am very passionate about the subject if you can't tell 馃槄)
and on the ooother hand, my unpopular htf opinion is that a chunk of the fandom is SUPER weird about how much they hate certain characters. i'm not going to sit here and pretend i'm head over heels for every character myself, i definitely have my favorites and ones i don't care for, but the genuine vitriol some people seem to hold is. concerning. i'm always tempted to look some of the fans in the eyes and just go brother. they're pastel animals with the structural integrity of a wet paper towel. i'm all for giving them depth but maybe we can take a step back and relax a bit.

馃敟 Solas. Solas. Scramble the egg!
I'm okay with him, actually! I don't adore him, I don't hate him, I just think that personality wise he's a proud nerd with a great level of enthusiasm and many pearls of wisdom to share - if you want to have partial information on stuff of course lol
*gather whips and bowls* but he's so fucking blind and deaf to opinions that differ to his, he doesn't understand that the world has changed and it's normal for this to happen. He started it, he's responsible for it but instead of dealing with the consequence of his actions in a constructive way he just wants to make things even more complicated - like, does he really think that elves won't be harmed in the process??
I can understand why it's difficult to accept that his actions backfired on his people and who's beyond the Veil, but what he wants to do is not a viable solution for all problems. Like, the political social and cultural environments are way different from back then and most of the time it's fucking bad and oppressive, but he doesn't contemplate that below the structures there's just people trying to survive a hostile world. Those will be the ones that will get harmed.
I don't think he's a villain, I think he's irresponsible and I can't wait to see what's next

Reblog karma has done absolutely nothing except make the problem of not sending each other memes even more hurtful than it was before reblog karma became a Popular "Rule" to adopt. Like, it's extremely and painfully obvious when people are reblogging a meme they just saw someone they're following post, and decided that they wanted it for themselves but didn't want to send anything to the other person.
I get that sometimes the meme might not work between muses, and that's fine. You absolutely should work off of what fits and probably leave what doesn't fit. But when it's something as simple and noncommittal as a "send a symbol/number for a head canon question" then there's no fucking reason to be dodging the meme. That's selfish behavior, you're actively contributing into the issue of nobody getting any asks to answer, and you have no right to complain about it. This is an interactive, collaborative hobby. Fucking interact and collaborate.

馃敟 movies
I had to think long and hard about this one. Was it going to be an old person rant about too-long movies that don't even have an intermission or something specific? I've decided to go with something specific, specifically about Marvel films and how done with them I am. Look, I get that they're designed to make Disney all the money by forcing you to watch every single one in order to understand who all these people are and what the fuck is going on, but I don't want to any more. At a certain point, staying current with a cinematic universe starts to feel like homework and that's no fun.
