Me when I did the most important presentation of my school life to date

when the essay prompt lets me get a little autistic with it

I've recently been thinking, what in your countries education system, was your music class about.

Did it teach European 18th century style music theory and all of the composers or (if not from Europe) did it teach of your own countries music history with it's composers or important musicians.

I'm trying to collect data because I want to prove a point to my music teacher, should that topic ever come up

If you see this, please reblog to spread it and get as big a sample size as possible

Rewatching TOH Season 1 with hindsight...

Rewatching the first season of Owl House with online friends made me realize something. It's pretty much the regular human world just with more fantastical elements, particular with Hexside. Sure it's more authoritarian, but it felt like a world that was independently founded by witch culture, including the whole Coven system.

Belos at first fits into the world perfectly, back when he was considered an actual witch. Getting visions from the Titan, using them to justify his rule, and then planning on mass conversion and supposedly invading the Human Realm in the name of witch imperialism. He's a generic cult leader but he fits well with the theme.

Until you incorporate Philip Wittebane into the equation. Philip Wittebane is a very different character. He is not a cult leader. He is a zealous witch hunter driven by revenge. Revenge against all witches. Such a character would not have come up with such an elaborate plan to kill all the witches with a convoluted plot that takes 400 years to complete, requires him to pretend to be a witch, and requires the witches to blindly trust him. He would have simply amass an army of loyal soldiers that obey him to massacre the witches. And these soldiers would have been his fellow witch hunters or clones of his witch hunters that share his hatred for witches. Genocidal hatred.

This is the paradox of Belos' character. He's far more interesting as Philip Wittebane in that you want to know more about his backstory and why he went from this adorable kid to a lunatic witch killer. But if you ignore that backstory and just focus Belos in terms of present day context, he's a confusing mess of a villain that gives off different, unintended messages.

He's a Puritan yet somehow is respectful of LGBT, blacks, and women in the Boiling Isles despite already forcing their society to convert to the Coven System. He hates all witches and loves humans, yet his entire scheme in Boiling Isles relies on a covoluted plan that would take centuries to complete (and requires him to dress up as a witch) rather than the simple "build the door portal" and rally the witch hunters to a genocidal war against witches. He's the reason why the Boiling Isles went from a utopia to a jackass place, yet it's not really different from the regular human world (and if anything, it's actually better) and thus, it feels more real than the "utopian" past.

Honestly, Belos and Philip should have been two separate characters on opposite sides, with Belos' rise to power being a response to Philip's fanatical attacks on witch societies. Imagine what kind of conflict and grey area would that be for the audience. Heck, what if Belos was actually Caleb and Caleb, in an attempt to defend witches from his brother, became sort of a Magneto tyrant who hates all of humanity and that's why he wants to invade the Human Realm.

And imagine how Luz has to resolve the conflict that cannot be easily resolved.

#imagine belis trying to introduce systemic bigotry #but because it's the boiling ilses it just doesn't #or even if it does just magically disappears

All your life, you’ve been quite accustomed to your psychic powers. Though, as you return to school, your new peculiar classmate has always befuddled you and for one simple reason–you’re unable to read their mind.

Do other countries with mandatory second foreign language classes in middle and high school also draw this kind of false dicotomy (I don't know how to spell that and am too lazy to look it up) between French and Latin (except for French speaking countries of course)

I mean at my school you can also choose Spanish and / or Russian but those classes have rarely more than like 6 students (I think)

Why do metalheads almost always seem like the most levelheaded and wholesome people? I mean like, yeah sure metal is a good vent for emotions but like, that that's not a explanation that covers everything
