fave lyrics from "helpless"?

ahahaha, i am only laughing because i already know what bonus i'm gonna give you with this one (& maybe you know it too...). let's go:

laughing at my sister cause she wants to form a harem/i'm just saying, if you really loved me you would share him! - it always makes me laugh i swear

i'm dying inside as you wine & dine, & i'm trying not to cry cause there's nothing that your mind can't do - i am actually convinced lin wrote this line about himself, come on

eliza, i don't have a dollar to my name (...) - this entire verse actually, but again, too lazy to type, i just looooove alexander's part & especially the last line: as long as i'm alive, eliza, swear to god you'll never feel so... (because of the way he sings it, it's doing things to my brain)

bonus 1: lin's notes from hamilbook:

bonus 2: HUAEEEEEEEEEE ok, so maybe some of you don't know that first version of helpless was actually called "this one's mine" & it's completely different than the final version, now, this demo exists, i'm gonna post it here so you can have a good laugh (wtf is this video):

enjoy!

#i'm just gonna leave it here but i don't want anyone to say bad things about lin after this #it's funny yes it really is #you can laugh #i am laughing too #i don't want you to start hating on him tho #just behave guys #i trust you #& remember if you say anything negative about him i will find you #you can't hide #lmm #lin manuel miranda #hamilton #your sentences left me defenseless*

[ttrpgsmoved]

IM SO TIRED OF PPL MAKING FUN ON EA GALE YOU DONT DESERVE HIM. i wish we still had that chubby face

#nullsense #and yes i know about that lin manuel miranda ea gale meme i do not care

[asshatproductions]

Look, I know we all cringe at Lin’s rap verses now especially in Disney films- and while I hate the chokehold Disney has on “children’s culture” across the world, I can step out of that for a second and see how much the kids around me love Encanto, or pretending to be Moana as they attempt to hit the last note of “How Far I’ll Go” (improving and discovering their natural talent each time). Already, several kids have told me that “scuttlebutt” was their favorite part of the new Little Mermaid movie- and of course it is! It’s dumb and silly and yes of course it looks cringe to us now, but look! The kids are having fun.

#also not to mention- #rap is like SUPER in rn with young people!! #i mean sure in a way it always has been #but Lin I feel is taking the genre to a place that feels more accessible #yes you could argue if rap should be a genre that’s palatable and family-friendly #but with how many people enjoy the genre and with all of the violence usually associated with the genre #I do think it is nice to have some figures that take the genre in a unique direction while also being (somewhat) taken seriously #the little mermaid #lin manuel miranda #and think about all the video essays that are going to come out 30 years from now titled: #’the TRUTH about the man behind all your favorite disney songs’

[fuckwhoeverpickedallthefunnyurls]

Exasperated fan once again asking an adaptation to just follow the fucking source material

#Yes this is about PJO #Is it that hard?? #Like I get budget stuff but. You don't need to be doing all that in other places. Really #Get Lin-Manuel Miranda out of my face please #pjo #pjo tv series #pjo tv show #percy jackson and the olympians

[potato-lord-but-not]

what’s your opinion on Hamilton?

I have a lot of thoughts on it- BUT yknow it’s alright, I’m not a fan but if you like it that’s your thing go crazy girl

#are the songs catchy as hell? absolutely #is it weird as fuck? definitely #is it HILARIOUS? yes #like ?? I know people make fun of Hamilton fans for shipping the founding fathers #BUT MY BROTHER IN CHRIST #what did you expect ?? #we’re talking about theater fandom. gay people. teenage girls. as the target audience #AND the characters are written to be more relatable and modern (in a way) #THIS WAS BOUND TO HAPPEN #not a fan of lin manuel miranda tho he’s a weirdo #ask

[farglefarf]

Me when I'm disarranged

#yes this is about a kitchen nightmares episode #yes the one with gordan ramsey #why is lin manuel miranda in this show??

[blankinsidecards]

in a devastating turn of events, my sister, who (I thought!) knows me better than anyone in the world, has bought me a Hamilton tshirt because she “knows” I’m a “big fan”

#shocked and upset #like. YEAH I listened to the soundtrack back when everyone was obsessed with it #YES I know an absurd amount about Lin Manuel Miranda but that’s mainly due to the McElroys #but that’s IT #can’t believe she’s done this

[earmo-imni]

I cannot listen to Insane Clown Posse (I am extremely picky about rap and also just don’t enjoy extreme gore) but goddamn if I’m not a little obsessed with juggalo subculture.

#how picky am i about rap? literally the only rap i like is lin manuel miranda’s stuff and this one song by a lesbian abt her experiences as #a lesbian. that’s it. and yes #I’ve tried other rap. including icp. can’t do it #honestly i think hyperfocusing on subcultures is just a thing i do #this isnt the first time ive done it #and yes the jnterest in juggalos is largely bc of gamzee #what can i say? i love my clown boy #marijn talks #random

[sexhaver]

i’m sorry i’m like this too.

but this site is so fucking WEIRD about john green. the cock monologue is whatever, but you also have a post about green being “weirdly chummy” with fans and. come on that was the actual problem in 2014. he was getting accused of pedophilia and grooming which was disproved at the time and remains completely untrue.

john green wasn’t predatory for writing YA novels with teenage girl main characters. he wasn’t predatory for interacting with fans who sought him out. he wasn’t predatory for creating an online community that remains safe for minors to participate in currently. he’s not a predator and he isn’t weird to his fans. it’s genuinely messed up to imply and keep implying that a YA author was being predatory towards fans after it was disproved. he had a public social media account before it was common for authors to engage that way. we were teens and we got weird about it.

it is actually serious to say john green was being inappropriate towards children and it’s important for all of our safety that we stay Very Very Clear about what predation is and who is Actually Dangerous To Children.

first off, no, you're not sorry, if you were sorry you would realize this ask sounds ridiculous and not send it, and yet here we are.

what really gets me the most about idiots such as yourself is that you make such a painstaking show of recounting How Things Really Happened, as if there's a massive conspiracy of historical revisionism afoot with the end goal of smearing a middle-aged YA author when like. i was literally there. i used this website before john green joined. i watched him get popular, i watched as we all took the piss by editing his text posts like we edited 10000 other text posts, i watched as a teenage girl called him a "creepy uncle at a pool party" and he responded by siccing his adult YA author friends and fans such as yourself on her so hard she deleted, i watched as he called nerdy girls an "underutilized resource" in a video targeted at boys, i watched as he jerked himself off in the notes of a gifset of his own movie ("is this the FIRST TIME the GIRL has kissed the BOY????"). i was (and still am) mutuals with the guy who edited the iconic copypasta over his announcement about hitting 100k followers or whatever.

i did not suffer through all of this, the worst fucking years of this hellsite, to be talked down to by tiktok users who deign to cite the deep magic to me. he was not targeted with post editing copypastas (yes, plural, it had been ongoing for months) for being neurodivergent. he wasn't even targeted for being creepy or predatory, although that was definitely a discussion being had at the time. he was targeted because he was fundamentally cringe before the word "cringe" had been discovered, and because he took himself so seriously that you were guaranteed to get a response from him every time.

imagine if Lin Manuel Miranda made an account on here now, and you could edit his posts, and every time you edited them, he would reblog it back from you saying "haha, very funny guys, but this is an edit! i didn't say this!", which you could then edit again, and so on and so forth. and then imagine if, a full decade after this happened, people who weren't even there started calling this practice "violent harassment" because someone edited his post to the "what the fuck did you fucking say about me?" copypasta once. and furthermore imagine that when you laugh at these people, they get really really indignant and demand you take them seriously and imply that somehow you're losing the debate by refusing to engage with them, and also that this is a debate all of a sudden instead of them embarrassing themselves

Andrew Garfield talking about his girlfriend for 8 minutes video

Word Count: 1.2k

Category: Fluff

Warning: None

Summary: A fan makes a YouTube video of Andrew Garfield talking about you for 8 minutes straight.

..

When the news of you and Andrew dating got out three years ago, fans and the media had a field day.

It wasn’t because you were anyone famous—quite the opposite. Being someone with a normal job, you and Andrew had basked in finally going outside as a couple, and it was how adorable the pictures looked that had everyone freaking out.

One picture was of you laughing, Andrew’s arms around you from behind as he wrapped his coat around you as he wore it, a grin on his face.

Another picture was of you looking at him, eyes set on one another with his hands tangled in your hair, while the other was of him kissing you and despite the photo not being one in high quality, everyone could still see the small smirk he had as you kissed.

It was no surprise when fans posted edits of you together, and although the content they got was minimal, considering your lack of presence in interviews and public press, it was always a field day when you appeared beside him on a red carpet or when you both did as little as grab yourselves some coffee.

Andrew Garfield talking about his girlfriend y/n for 8 minutes straight

The 8-minute and 29-second video started with lofi music over an advertisement for marvel hoodies that everyone seemed to promote, before a sound of glitching television sounded and the video started.

The video started with Andrew and Zendaya’s Actor on Actor interview when they first started talking about Zendaya’s performance on Euphoria.

“Makes me want to cry. I didn’t feel like there was any acting. It felt like you were living through something in such an authentic way,” Andrew said, “And I remember I watched episode 5 with Y/N—with my girlfriend, and she was just like, ‘Andy, can you check up on Zendaya?’”

Zendaya smiled, being her usual self who got flustered at any compliment or praise, “She did text me that night, I remember.”

“She did,” he nodded, “She was so heartbroken over the episode.”

The video then moved to show Andrew during his Wired Autocomplete interview, the foam board in his hand as he took off the sticker that hid the question.

“Does Andrew Garfield sing in Tick, Tick…Boom?” He read, “So, Andrew Garfield does sing in Tick, Tick…Boom, yes. Thank you,” he answered, “I worked very, very closely with an amazing vocal coach, Liz Caplan, and all of Lin Manuel Miranda’s amazing musical direction team. They enabled me to open my voice up to the point where I could honor Jon’s songs and feel confident enough to belt them out as he always did when he was doing his one-man show,” he nodded slight, “It was a privilege to be able to learn a skill that I’ve always wanted to attain but my girlfriend wouldn’t really agree,” he chuckled, looking at the camera, “Y/N’s had enough of my singing, because every time I’d learn something new, it’d be the only thing I’d be doing around our home and she’s incredible, she has a job that she needs to focus on and rest from, but I was always there singing and annoying her,” he laughed, “She’s a gem for putting up with me.”

Another clip then played as Andrew read Buzzfeed’s thirst tweets, headphones on his ears.

“Andrew Garfield if you see this on your secret Twitter account, I’m free this weekend if you want to get lunch or drinks or something, just let me know. If you want to do it earlier, I can do dinner during the week,” he chuckled as he read the tweet, “But I’m usually busy before six,” he finished with a laugh, leaning back in his seat, “I love that. That’s very, very—I like hyper-vigilance. I like specificity of plans,” he said, “But I’m going to have to give you a rain check on that because I’m actually busy on the weekend, unless you want to join in on my girlfriend and I’s date, then it’s fine by me,” he laughed, “I can do lunch during the week though, but we’re going to have to have that at Y/N’s office because that’s where you’ll usually find me having my lunch.”

The clip then moved to Andrew on the Ellen show, getting asked about Spider-Man: No Way Home, and having to lie to people.

“Who knew? Beside your agent, who knew that you were doing this? I mean, how hard is that? To keep it to—I mean, your family knew?” Ellen asked him.

“Yeah, my dad, my brother, and my mother at the time,” he answered with a smile, “Yeah, just kind of us. It was fun to keep it secret,” he grinned, “Because you know when you’re planning a surprise birthday party for someone, and then you’re like, tell me, you know I hate surprises, but I can see it on your face that you’re just like ‘I’m not gonna tell you’,” he shook his head with his wide grin, “So it felt like I was part of organizing a surprise birthday party for a bunch of people whom I knew would appreciate it.”

“Did your girlfriend know?”

Beaming even more, “Y/N had no idea,” he said, laughing, “And—lying to the media, to the fans, that was easy and fun, but lying to my girlfriend has got to be—it was one of the most agonizing and terrible things I have ever done.”

“You lied to her for what? Two years?”

“Technically, it was a year and a few months,” Andrew pointed.

“And how—how did she take that? I’d be pretty offended.”

He laughed, shaking his head, “She wasn’t, she wasn’t. I knew she’d appreciate it because she knows how I feel about my experience with the character, and it was—I’ll tell you something,” he sat up, smiling, “It was worth every single moment where I had to tell her I was shooting for another movie when I saw her reaction when we went to watch it together,” he said, “We had to watch it again because she couldn’t really focus after I was on screen,” he laughed, “But yeah, it—it was definitely hard having to lie to her, and it definitely made her tease me about trust for a while, but she supported me throughout without even knowing.”

The clip then moved to the last one, being from a recent interview with GQ of 10 things Andrew can’t live without.

In a t-shirt and sporting a full beard, he held a silver necklace with a compass on it.

“This is a necklace with a compass on it,” he said, holding the necklace in his hands before the camera zoomed on it before it showed him again, “My girlfriend Y/N gave this to me in a period where I needed to trust the direction I was going, even if I didn’t know where I was going,” he chuckled, looking at it, “It’s become such a symbol of our relationship because in a way, to me, it feels like it navigates us both back to where we have always met, toward our common interests and our differences that initially made us attracted to each other. But she’s always been very persistent on her support for me and my journey in my career, and my journey as a person, so this necklace is just a reminder from her that the direction I’m headed in is always one I can find value in,” he smiled, “My relationship with Y/N is very essential to me. She’s just—She’s truly my person, and this necklace is a symbol of the deep connection we have with each other.”

I can't even form coherent thoughts or complete sentences about Swifties bashing Lin-Manuel Miranda on Twitter. What part of Taylor Swift sent (SENT) him the album do those racist f*cks not understand? I am now fully convinced she is a fan of him and has been since the 2010s, and THAT.IS O.KAY. I'm not going to waste my time writing out why I love him because this would then become an essay with a minimum of five paragraphs. Most Tumblr users seem to be excited about the possibility of them doing a collaboration together, and that makes me happy. Let's normalize two things here:

Musicians being a fan of each other.

Musicians, let alone celebrities, being a fan of Lin-Manuel Miranda.

I feel like I have more to say, but I'll end my message here. Thank you for reading my TED Talk.

twitter swifties are much worse than tumblrinas tbh... that's why i'm here where it's not THAT bad. but i also like lurking in the shadows from time to time, so i usually know what's happening on twitter. i always regret it after.

she never even mentioned him before, i think, but let's not forget about their collaboration from 2009... i don't even know if swifties are aware that this happened. but yeah, i agree, she is probably also a fan of his work.

now i actually started thinking, dear anon, i don't know if you've heard about it but taylor is also working on her own movie... & i am thinking thoughts.

#if that's a musical & lin is involved... god help me #idk this is just one of my crazy theories but i hope i'm wrong about that #don't get me wrong i am really happy about their possible collaboration #but i want a song #nothing else #& i don't wanna hear a single complaint from swifties if this ever happens #also yes this fandom is racist as fuck that is confirmed #lin manuel miranda #lmm #ts #i saved every letter you wrote me*

PJO Episode 6: We Take a Zebra to Vegas 

I think it's important to say two things before I begin, first of all, I am a book reader, and second, I absolutely have loved this show so far! I thought the changes they have made have pretty consistently been improvements/adaptations to the screen that make sense and enhance the story.

Episode 6, and specifically the Lotus Casino is the first time I have been disappointed.

30-minute episodes are a detriment to the show. For me, it felt like they were speed-running for time instead of letting us get lost in the story. We moved from point to point, this then that, without feeling like those points really mattered. (Even Percy and Annabeth's relationship feels like a speedrun instead of a 5 book slow burn).

What makes the casino scary is the slow realization. For Medusa, practically a pop culture icon surrounded by stone statues on a Satyr path in the middle of the woods, it makes sense to know who she is. But why would you suspect a busy Las Vegas casino to be evil, and who remembers the Lotus Eaters from the Odyssey. If you know what the monster is from the beginning you take away its power.

The Solstice: Why have they passed this major plot point? In particular with the race against time, why take away the time limit and instead make it about a determination to finish what you've started? Is it to maximize Percy's loyalty?

The Pearls (Spoilers for TV-only watchers): If Percy has 4 instead of 3 pearls, what is going to happen to that 4th pearl. It's kind of incredibly important there are only 3 pearls, especially with the original time limit and the desperate need to get away as fast as possible. Long story short, how is he losing it - just like he must fail to save what matters most in the end.

What I did like:

I actually really enjoyed the Luke/Hermes dynamic they have set up since it really shows just how deep Luke's anger runs, especially regarding his mother. Also, I enjoyed Lin Manuel Miranda's portrayal of Hermes as saddened and trapped within a system himself. He isn't trying to cause harm, but he did anyway.

Grover and the animals. Just that whole section was great. Also, Percy's dreams I think are just the right amount of ominous each episode!

When the Nereid/Naiad shows up. The love and just care they have for Percy gets me every time.

I love the show, and I am sure once the entire series is out my overall opinion will change. But yes, this episode is the first one that left me feeling disappointed instead of practically jumping around the room.

TLDR: Pacing and tension are key elements of the show. If you let us know the monster at the beginning, we won't have the chance to become scared along with the characters. The slow realization is a key part of showing that these are children on a seemingly impossible quest!

Okay I HAVE to say it: the slander lin manuel miranda gets is unjust.

Is he annoying? Yes. Is he a GENIUS???? Yes.

His word play alone? Outstanding. His ability to weave in musical motifs? Almost unmatched.

The thing about how he writes for disney is that the songs are deceptively simple. We dont talk about bruno has multiple verses with their own unique patterns over the chord progression. Then, in the last verse, they interlock over each other. It's surprisingly hard to have that NOT song like garbage. (this style is called a Madrigal-- which is the name of the family!!!!)

Disney's new bland music is def an attempt to copy his style without the actual thought he puts into each work.

#can i sound insane #it seems like people got mad at him for his cringy white fans
