Just… just… thinking of the generational trauma of the Gukgaks.

What was it that Baron said to Riz? That his friends will never see as more than the little thing that finds the clues? That they will never understand him? Because I’ve got to imagine that’s not just a sentiment that applies only to Riz among goblins. That even the people who don’t see goblins as monsters see them as sub-person. As weird little creatures to be amused at.

In the first season, Sklonda talks about getting drinks with her coworkers but none of them seem to be there for her when her pension is stolen. Pok literally died for Solace and his widow and child don’t have enough milk between them for two bowls of cereal. We don’t know much about Sklonda’s family but we know Pok’s dad was an immigrant who worked for the police department around the clock, sacrificing his relationship with his family for his job.

A whole family legacy of giving everything to people who treat you like shit. To people who only care about what you can do for them. To people who don’t see you as a full person.

And we and Riz KNOW that the bad kids love him. Fabian crashed a boat in desperation to find him and ate glass. Fig writes him notes about how loved and appreciated he is and doesn’t even sign them as herself. Kristen gave her last greater restoration to save Riz instead of herself. We know that. Riz has come to know that.

But Sklonda doesn’t see any of that. Sklonda just sees Riz creating study and college plans for them, and helping their presidential campaigns, and taking on stress for them when otherwise he would have no stress. Sklonda hears them call him The Ball and isn’t that SO funny? GET IT? Ya know, CAUSE HE’S SMALL AND THEREFORE NOT LIKE THE REST OF US?

Just… Sklonda breaking a toxic generational cycle by leaving the police department and thinking her son is falling back into it. Of giving everything to a thankless job just for the chance to be accepted when you never will be.

Meanwhile, what is actually happening is Riz is following in a completely different family tradition: working night and day and tirelessly and self-sacrificing for his family.

Thinking about the Bad Parents this episode because like, imagine your child, who's constantly burdened with the fate of the world, comes to you after school and says it's not enough. That they have to take the Last Stand exam and it's tomorrow. You have no time to take time off work to be with them, to be able to wait for them when they get home.

And then the next day you say goodbye in the morning, you kiss them on the head and tell them you love them. But you know that the next time you see them they will have died. You know that all the day you're at work, your child is fighting for their life in a drastic last stand. How do you focus with that knowledge? How do you move on, wondering if your child is already dead? That while your working or doing chores, your child could be lying on a sandy flood, dead, while all their friends fight for their lives?

How do you move past it? How do you live out that day?

there’s a new potent drug called “the bed” out on the streets. just one hit of the damn thing and you’re passed out cold, tucked in, multiple blankies, honking and shooing for hours. scary stuff.

Hey, kid, get out of the road!

[angstyavocado]

Very intrigued by the amount of people (myself included) who are saying they didn’t like ghost/mystery files as much as buzzfeed unsolved.

Because this means we were sticking around for loyalty. Because we wanted to see Watcher succeed. Not because of “tv level content” or expensive shows or whatever else.

some of y'all need to cool it about demonizing steven lim so you don't have to adapt the perception you built of your ghoulboys

I am just. So weirdly tickled by this Watcher situation. Like yes, initially I was very disappointed and upset but honestly now I just think it's funny. I can't remember the last time a creator or group of creators misread the room this hard. Like they really thought they were cooking with this one. They had a countdown to this. They announced their paywalled streaming service with their whole chests and expected rapturous applause. Instead, there has been a non-stop chorus of boos and thrown tomatoes for days now. They would have probably gotten a better reaction if they had posted a video where they sprayed a dog in the eyes with soapy water.

It's all so pleasantly... low-stakes. The consequences are nonexistent. It's not like the Ned Fulmer situation, where a friend group is destroyed, real life relationships are ended, and young children are potentially subjected to the trauma of divorce. Nah, all that's happening here is three idiots will be making a lot less money than they wanted. Maybe they'll learn something, maybe they won't. Either way, they brought it entirely upon themselves, and that makes it okay to laugh at in my books. So I will!

I’m so emotional about dinosaur stuffed animals,,, there are these creatures, extinct long before any of us were alive, but we found their bones and their eggs and their footprints. And we made drawings and models of what they could’ve looked like. And we made them into stuffed animals so we could hold them. We made them soft so we could love them. I’m sobbing

Im curious.

#greys anatomy spoilers #i was ready to sue when they killed deluca #and i didnt even like him that much until like three episodes prior

[angstyavocado]

Kinda in love with the idea that different places on other sides of the world can look so similar. Something something universal human experiences

It IS true that being on here gives you a tumblr accent. This morning my mother asked me something and i replied "i don't know i've never heard these words in that order" and she nearly choked laughing. It wasn't even that funny

#i said “those are all words” to my dad once in reference to an incomprehensible sentence #and he freaking lost it he thought it was so funny #ive definitely said things in public before though that are Internet casual and real world psychotic
