We Don't Talk About Judas (Biblical Encanto Parody)

PETER

We don't talk about Judas no no no

We don't talk about Judas

But

It was the Passover

ANDREW

It was the Passover

PETER

We were all together and we're passing the bread and the wine

ANDREW

Passing the bread and the wine

PETER

Jesus comes through

With some upsetting news

ANDREW

Traitor!

PETER

Are you telling the story or am I?

ANDREW

I'm sorry dear brother go on

PETER

Jesus said 'I'll be betrayed'

ANDREW

Why would He tell us?

PETER

Upon this news, we're all dismayed

ANDREW

The whole room was in chaos!

PETER

Who of us would dare betray?

ANDREW

We're not naming names

But we'll just say

BOTH

We don't talk about Judas no no no

We don't talk about Judas!

MATTHEW

Hey! Grew to be weary of Judas's intentions

None of us suspected his crime beyond comprehension

I equate him to the sound of coins hitting the floor (clang, clang, clang)

How could we remiss

With a kiss, he touches

Failed to keep our Rabbi out of the Romans' clutches

Choking on his guilt until he can't breathe anymore

Gone forevermore

JOHN

Thirty pieces

Of silver in his sack

When the night ceases

He stabs us in the back

He had seeled our doom

Led Jesus to His tomb

ALL

(Hey) We don't talk about Judas no no no

We don't talk about Judas

JEWISH VILLAGER 1

They say He was sacrificed

To pay our cost! (No no)

JEWISH VILLAGER 2

The Romans had dragged Him off

To Pilate, their boss! (No no)

JEWISH VILLAGER 3

He said that Jesus of Nazareth

Would hang on the cross! (No no)

ALL

The Hebrews mourned

Our most devastating loss!

MARY MAGDALENE

He told me

That upon this day three

Not to worry for He will soon rise

He told me

The Messiah will come

And our souls will be made divine

PETER

He told me

Before that next morning

I'll deny him times three

Upon the cock's crowing

It's like I hear it now

It's like I hear it now!

I can hear it now!

MATTHIAS

Um...Judas

Yeah, about that Judas

I really need to know about Judas

Give me the truth and the whole truth

Judas!

ZECHARIAH

Hey the King of the Jews is here!

ALL

He has risen!

(Overlap of Peter/Andrew, Matthew, John, and Mary Magdalene verses)

ALL

He's here!

Don't talk about Judas

MATTHIAS

Why did I talk about Judas?

ALL

Not a word about Judas

MATTHIAS

I never should've brought up Judas!

yes @thecrazyashley-blog!!!!!! Absolutely correct. The characters in Encanto are human, and humans aren’t perfect. Agustin is an amazing father.

On the post you rebloged about Disney movies and generational trauma, I really want to see one with a father and daughter at the core. Most of them have been about women, but I sometimes wonder if the lack of men can be the problem. What I mean by that is in 'nuclear' familes, most of the time, men are emotionally or often physically absent, leaving women to raised the families. I kind of want to see a movie focusing on a fathers absence in that light.

I agree. Disney has several stories about a father’s absence creating conflict (Treasure Planet, Aladdin and the King of Thieves, Strange World, Percy Jackson and the Olympians, etc.), but those fathers have only sons. I wish Disney told more stories where an absent father is equally bad as an overbearing father.

What’s especially frustrating is when Disney shows a parent being physically present but emotionally absent, and suffer 0 consequences for it. It also means they do very little to move the plot. They might as well not exist. Like NPCs. Sometimes I think Disney’s ticking a checkbox to show certain characters, but without writing those characters well.

(This is one thing I loved about Encanto. Agustin faces harsh consequences for being an emotionally absent father, and eventually learns to protect his daughter.)

A Word.

Having to do this in an image post because of people not wanting acknowledge what they said was unnecessary and inflammatory.

The word below.

Seeing as how both of these lovely people have me blocked, and that 1eos has outright admitted on other posts that they are "too young and sexy to read all that" this won't reach them. That said their "points" are drivel, and should be addressed.

per fangirl411007 ""At this point I'm just genuinely concerned that grown adults have the time to overanalyze media made to stimulate the senses of prepubescent children...""

Media analyzation has been an academic pursuit for decades, if not centuries. To the point that it is taught in college and learning it is part of the science of film making. "Children's" stories are no exception to this. Fairy tales are some of the oldest surviving oral traditions known to humanity, and studying their origins can lead to discoveries in the movement of ancient people, language evolution, and several other archeological fields.

Adults create the media for children, young adults, and their family. They have studied how to best make it enjoyable and valuable to multiple age groups. Disney especially would not hire Broadway acclaimed song writers and Hollywood acclaimed directors if there was no value in "Children's" media

More over, "children's" media is quite often and on purpose the first introduction children have to complex subjects like emotional intelligence, death, not all people can be trusted, healthy marriages, unhealthy marriages, overcoming obstacles, the consequences of actions, interpersonal relationships outside of family, threats of violence, and multiple other things that are taken by professional writers, musicians, artists, voice actors, animators, and many others to be presented to those children in both a manner they can feasibly handle. It is also, when done well, purposely created with adult audiences in mind in a way they are able to also be entertained, because they are the ones that will be buying the tickets for their children.

Per 1eos ""right? it's giving jobless, friendless, hobbyless etc. like we had a movie night years ago for my nephew nd watched inside out nd i thought it was cute but i can't imagine being 22 nd legitimately obsessed with inside out 😭😭😭😭 like i just checked nd encanto already has 3k fics on ao3...... these ppl need to do their taxes""

I am truly mystified at this supposition that things "meant for children" must be abandoned upon reaching adulthood, especially considering you are above the age of majority. Will you abandon your love of K-pop or Persona 5 now that you are above the age of the target demographic? Should every single fan of Mario, Studio Ghibli, Pokemon, or any other beloved IP fully and completely abandon them upon their 18th birthday for a life of dullness and misery?

Not seeing the value in something is not a reason to malign it. NOt understanding how a piece of "children's" media, (especially ones that have such resonating messages as Encanto about recovering from generational trauma, or Inside Out, about the struggle that being uproote, put in a new environment, and trying to understand the frightening changes of puberty that nearly every adult went through,) is not an excuse to be nasty to the people that do find value in it. The only K-pop I'm even vaguely aware of is PSY and BTS, but I'm not going to mock the fans of it simply because it's not to my musical tastes.

""it's giving jobless, friendless, hobbyless""

I know many people through my time in the Encanto fandom. Many are in their late 20s-early 40s. Many have resonated with the storyline of a family overcoming their own communication issues. I work in aeronautics and the naval reserve. Three other either are, were, or are studying to become lawyers. One just finished writing her thesis. Another just finished veterinary school. Many are married or engaged. Some, including myself, are married with children. We are not one dimensional cardboard people dictated by someone else's assumptions about what the ages above them do for a living.

And yes, some of them are handicapped and on disability, and cannot work, or are students, or have been laid of thanks to the economy being awful and the job market being just as bad. I was quite under the impression that things outside of someone's control was not something civilized people mocked them over.

We have a multitude of hobbies from doll modding to gardening to home repair to car care to...well the list goes on and on. Our blogs are simply a place for one of those hobbies, which has a strong focus on a single piece of media because it resonated with us thanks to circumstances across our childhoods that still effect us to this day. Because children grow up to become adults, but the past does not leave once you cross the threshold of adulthood.

Regardless, what is the purpose of this petulant post? Making fun of others for things you personally don't understand is quite possibly the most childish thing one can think of. Gloating about it after your easily findable thanks to keywords post was in fact found by someone in the community you're insulting and then getting surprised that 2022 is not that long ago and that perhaps you shouldn't insult people is equally immature. Immediately blocking people and then boasting about it after you post something insulting rather than spend the time to think about what you said is the internet equivalent sticking your fingers in your ears and going "na na na na na."

""these ppl need to do their taxes""

Adulthood, it may come to surprise you, is not some bastion of boring activities until we shrivel up and die of old age. You're in the US, since you think we all "do our taxes." If you're 22 like you say and no longer in school, you need to do yours as well. You aren't exempt unless you're still in school, and that will only last two more years. Also tax season is 2 weeks in April. What, pray tell, should we do with the other 50 weeks of the year?

This is truly a sad outlook on life if you think simply because we reach a certain age, we have to stop enjoying things. It also speaks to a lack of breadth in your life experiene. I enjoy many things I learned in my childhood. I like gardening. I like walks in the woods. I like art. I like going to the zoo. I like collecting colorful pens and playing with stray animals and catching frogs to show my son. These are all things I learned to enjoy in childhood. I did them as a child, which, per your limiting view makes them for children. Will you also give up everything you loved in childhood once you reach some arbitrary definition of "adult?" or do the rules you've established only apply to people you don't understand and feel the need to denigrate?

In the words of the great C.S. Lewis, kindly do grow up.

“Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”

"Today is Mother’s Day in Sudan….

To all the mothers who had to give birth in the most difficult circumstances

To all the mothers who have to constantly worry about their children’s next meal

To all the pregnant mothers who don’t have enough food

To all the mothers who are victims of sexual assault

To all the mothers are literally sacrificing everything to save their families

To all the mothers who have to hold their sick or starving child

To all the mothers in Sudan.. Happy Mother’s Day. I hope next year’s Mother’s Day finds you surrounded by peace and love, celebrating the joys of motherhood without the weight of hardship and suffering."

Agustín, talking to some rude townsperson: We have three very talented and amazing daughters, thank you very much! Mirabel is the biggest academic I have ever met and I would venture the most intelligent young lady in all of Colombia. Luisa is a brilliant sportswoman and can literally carry the weight of the world, she is a complete idol of strength and power. And Isabela—

(Cut to Isabela who is beating someone with her cacti)

Agustín:

Julieta: Are you going to finish or…?

Agustín, sniffles: Sorry, I’m just so proud of her

[aurelia11fan]

we stan Alma in this house 💯

So… has this been shared here yet? Or it’s the kind of thing all the Alma haters who plague this fandom don’t wanna see? :)

If you like Jared Bush’s tweets, take this one: Alma wasn’t as stern before Mirabel’s failed ceremony, what happened that night scared the hell out of her and she changed after that. Also: before that, she was probably starting to put more pressure on the family. She was starting to, when she was on her sixties. And that’s probably because she was getting old and anxious towards the survival of the town and the miracle after her death. So no, I’m sorry, she wasn’t a horrible monster who abused her family and destroyed their lives since her children were five years old. Big surprise, people grow and develop and change all over each stage of their lives. The 25yo Alma wasn’t the same than the 40yo Alma, and that wasn’t the same as the 65yo, as well as none of them was the same as 75yo movie-Alma. All of them were traumatized, but that trauma manifested in different ways throughout her life, with different kinds of attitudes, responses and reactions.

Are you going to take this as canon or are you going to ignore it?

BuT sHe HaS bEeN tRaUmAtIzInG bRuNo HiS wHoLe LiFe!!!¡!

Ok, good, let’s discuss this further under the cut.

Just want every young person terrified of becoming older than 23-25 to know that I'm currently 32 and my 20s were fucking miserable and while life isn't wholly perfect right now I wouldn't trade my 30s for my 20s for the LIFE of me. The idea feels as ridiculous as trading my 20s for being in high school. FUCK no. And I'm sure at 42 I'll feel similarly to my 30s and so on and so forth. Embrace the passage of time and be grateful that you get the privilege of growing old, bitch. Life's sooooo much better past your mid 20s.

Important rules/tips I've learned as an adult that helped with anxiety

If people are mad at you, it's their responsibility to tell you, not your responsibility to guess

If they're mad at you in secret anyways, they're the ones in the wrong, not you

If people don't like what you're doing, it's their responsibility to tell you

If they say it's fine when it's really not, they're the ones in the wrong, not you

People are allowed to be wrong about you

If they are wrong about you, wait for them to bring it up, because if you try to, you will inevitably overcorrect

Some people are committed to misunderstanding you. You will not win arguments against them. Yes, even if you explain your point of view. They do not care. Drop it

The worst thing that will happen from a first-time offense is being told not to do it again. Maybe with a replacement if you broke something

You can improve relationships and gauge willingness to talk to you by giving compliments. It's like a daily log-in bonus and nobody thinks twice about it

Most things are better after you sleep on them

Most things are better after you have a meal

Most things are better after you shower

Your brain makes up consequences that are irrational. If the worst DOES come to pass and someone acts like they do in your head, they are overreacting, and you are entitled to say "what the fuck"

If your chest hurts after you feel like you've made a social error, that's called rejection-sensitive dysphoria. It means your anxiety is so bad that it's causing you physical pain, which is a good indicator that you're overreacting. Tense yourself, hold it for 20 seconds, let it go, then find a distraction

If you're suddenly angry at someone after you feel like you made a social error, that's also rejection-sensitive dysphoria. You are going to feel annoyed about it for awhile, but being genuinely pissed off is your anxiety trying to find something to blame to take the responsibility off your shoulders, and getting scared because it can't justify itself. Deep breaths, ask yourself how much you ACTUALLY want to be angry at that person, then find a distraction

"Sour grapes" is more healthy for you than stewing. Deciding you don't like someone who's perpetually annoyed with you, won't talk to you, etc. makes letting go of anxiety over them easier

If people don't like you, they will find reasons to be annoyed with you when they otherwise wouldn't. If people do like you, they will find reasons NOT to be annoyed with you when they otherwise would. People do not ping-pong between the two

You DO have to make a conscious choice not to think about something. If you're having trouble circling back to it, say out loud that you're done thinking about it and why. Then find a distraction

When you're upset, part of you is going to want to make false bids for attention (suddenly texting differently, heavy sighs, etc. but when someone asks you about it, you tell them it's nothing). Do not listen to it. You gain nothing from it except more misery

People like to help people they care about. It makes them feel good about themselves

If you think you're insufferable for needing help, see above. Yes, really. They get a serotonin kick from it

If you think you're insufferable for mannerisms you have, you either have to consciously choose not to do them, or accept that they're part of the package that comes with you. Being apologetic about existing does nothing except make you more miserable

If you do things you don't like when you feel meh about it, it makes it easier to do them when you hate it

If you avoid things you don't like when you feel meh about it, it reinforces and magnifies how bad it feels when you hate it

Seriously. Read those last two points again. If you can make yourself make a phone call when you've got nothing to lose, you will slowly lose that panic you get when you have to make a phone call you haven't prepared for. You do have to CONSCIOUSLY take that step

Hobbies that make you care for something get rid of that nagging feeling that you're not doing enough. Go grow some rosemary

If you don't engage with your hobbies regularly, you will feel miserable, and anxiety will spike

Hobbies are things that give you a bit of happiness. They do not have to be organized or named to do that. Go be creative in something. Play with coins. Make up lists. Start a new WIP

No one cares what you look like

If people point out things they don't like about how you look unprompted, they are being rude. You are entitled to say "what the fuck"

People who like you will find you pretty to some degree. Minor things about your appearance go completely unnoticed. Literally, scars and dots and blemishes do not register to someone who likes your company

You looking at yourself in the mirror is 10x more closely than anyone is going to look at you

If you're anxious about your body type, and you're creatively inclined, make/write an oc with that same shape. Give them nice things and make other characters love them. Put them on adventures. You'll start to see yourself in the mirror more kindly

You care about wording and perfect lines/colors way more than anyone who views your work ever will

Sometimes when you're upset, you're going to feel like not eating. Do not do that. Not eating makes you more miserable

Same with things you normally enjoy. Denying yourself helps no one. You are punishing yourself for being sad. Stop it

Both of these will take conscious decision to break the habit of. Make yourself do it anyways, and it will slowly get easier

And again, to reiterate: If someone is mad at you, it is THEIR responsibility to tell you, not your responsibility to guess

[aurelia11fan]

I refuse to believe the best years of my life are behind me. I refuse to believe the best years of my life are right now. I refuse to label my years as being the best of my entire life. Good times are always ahead. I have to believe there are always better times coming.

Anyone who reblogs this post will have their user written on a poster saying "We Stand With Palestine" that I hope to put up somewhere in the village I live in, or the town that the village is next to.

[aurelia11fan]

it's like i am literally never going to own a house or find authentic love or escape the clutches of late stage capitalism so really what am i living for

[aurelia11fan]

I hate to be the one to tell you this but give up on not annoying people. Bother them. Text your friends first. Sing out loud to that song you like. Say hi to strangers. Take up space and prove you exist because no one is waiting around to ask you to.
