One thing to notice in P&P is how Darcy started to fall for Lizzy. He is acquainted with 3 women only, as far as we know; Mrs Hurst, Miss Bingley and his own sister and being with them for a long time led him believe that he can predict women's reactions. For example, when Darcy tells Miss Bingley that Elizabeth's eyes have caught his attention, she immediately wished him joy on the prospects of marrying Elizabeth and Darcy was expecting this. He knew that she will not take a moment in ridiculing him for appreciating Elizabeth and will jump to scheming them being married. HE EXPECTED THIS FROM MISS BINGLEY AND SHE PROVED HIM RIGHT. She agrees with him on all ocassions and is desperate to win his attention because she likes him.
However Elizabeth doesn't wish to be the object of his affection, and therefore finds joy in ways, she thinks she can disappoint him. For example, on the third evening of her stay at Netherfield when Jane was ill, Elizabeth joined everybody in the drawing-room where Miss Bingley and Mrs Husrt were performing on the pianoforte. Dracy asked her if she felt to seize such opportunity of dancing a reel but she made no answer and when Darcy repeated the question she said she knew he wanted to hear 'yes' so she said she did not want to dance a reel at all.
Similarly when she was asked to take a turn around the room with Miss Bingley and Darcy refused to elaborate what he meant when he said he would like not to interfere with their two motives of walking; she did not press him to explain. She even asked Miss Bingley to disappoint him by not asking about it.
Instead of agreeing or adding to what Darcy believes, she leads the conversation based on her beliefs and opinions.
So, the Darcy who's always certain of a lady's reaction in certain situations is caught off guard when he meets Elizabeth who is not always agreeing with him and doesn't respond in the manner, he expected. I think he started liking her more when he found his misconceptions being proved wrong.
Thank you for reading the half wit-TED TALK

Have you wondered why did Darcy choose to reveal the scandal, Georgiana was about to get caught into with Wickhan, to Lizzy when he didn't let this information reach the ears of his closest people whom he knew since many years?!?!??!
He didn't reveal this merely because he was blinded by love and wanted the woman he adored to understand the circumstances. He trusted Lizzy. He was sure that she will keep this secret and will not take any pleasure in dishonoring his sister's reputation. And this trust developed from the instances when he saw how dearly she loved her sisters. He saw her loving and caring for her sisters.
When Jane fell ill at Netherfield, Elizabeth WALKED 3 miles very early in the day, in dirty weather and by herself. She arrived in a state which other ladies didn't approve of but all she cared for was her sister's health and not opinion of anyone else. And then she didn't quit Jane's room even for a moment until she started feeling better.
Darcy must've noticed how she didn't want Mary to ridicule herself at the Netherfield ball by singing and looked at Mr Bennet to entreat his interference.
And when he realised how Lizzy declined the proposal without a second thought because she held him responsible for separating Jane and Bingley, he would've secured his opinion of her being a devoted sister who cares for the well being of her sisters. A marriage which would've been advantageous to her in every aspect didn't make her forget the pain her sister was in. She wasn't at all tempted to think about the proposal.
Considering how protective Darcy is of Georgiana, he didn't make the decision of revealing the true character of Wickham and his wicked schemes in an emotional turmoil. He analyzed and trusted Lizzy with this information because he witnessed her taking care of her sisters and trying her best to secure the reputation of her family. This made him to trust her with the responsibility of maintaining the reputation of his family as well.
Thank you for reading the half-witTED TALK.

Gee, I thought these people were the ones who were like “If you don’t like it, you can just move to a blue state.”
And now they’re mad the guy is doing just that?
You can’t oppress and discriminate against someone then be mad when they take their highly useful skill elsewhere.

with everyone rightfully panning that new "adult" scooby-doo show, i thought about the gang actually being adults today. since the original show debuted in 1969, and with them being teens back then, in 2023 they'd be in their early 70s. so have some retiree scooby gang!
fred i just figured he'd be a kind unassuming older gentlemen who still has a penchant for tiny pranks. the kinda grandpa figure who always has a few pieces of candy in his pocket just in case it looks like someone needs one.
shaggy would absolutely be like willie nelson, full stop. chill old dude, knows the lyrics to everything 70s, and often volunteers at animal shelters mostly as a dog walker/socializer.
daphne i imagine would be a graceful ager but embraces her silvery hair like helen mirren or jamie lee curtis, and supports young up and coming fashion designers/models through a foundation she set up.
velma put out a few mystery novels in her 40s that took off and now, similar to daphne, mentors other authors through creative writing seminars. she has trifocals now.
the unfortunate reality is that dogs don't live near as long as people, even ones with a tenuous grasp of the human language. but, over the years, each of them has adopted different dogs and given them as much love as they did their beloved great dane detective.

Spy x Family Code: White
Okay, let me start by saying I've been thoroughly spoiled. I won't say how, just that I know more than plenty about this movie and that even after this, I can't wait to see it in the movie theater when it finally comes out.
Tumblr media
But don't worry, I won't reveal everything (or much). Although, I'm still tagging this as a spoiler, for the people who don't want to know anything about the movie until they see it.
Anyways, here's what I want to say... spoiler ahead, so you still have time to turn back...
Remember what I've told you about Twiyor fake moment and Twiyor real moment? If not, you can read this theory here and here. Well, in the movie it happens too!
Here's Twiyor fake moment:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yup, it almost broke the Internet.
As usual, fake Twiyor moment is exciting and physical 😏 but it doesn't bring their relationship closer.
Now...are you ready for the true Twiyor moment?? Here it is!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yes! This is the real Twiyor moment!!
More spoilers (I'll try to keep it to a minimum): Here Twilight reminds Yor about their wedding vows.
That's it! That's all I'm going to say! You're going to have to wait to know more details about it. Just know that it is real!
Let me remind you again about real Twiyor moment slowly becoming more exciting than the fake one. It has already happened. Believe me, here, the real moment is much more exciting than the fake one.
Did you notice how gentle Twilight is with Yor? She's probably one of the strongest people on Earth, but he treats her heart like a gentle flower 😭
I really can't wait to see that moment on the big screen 😌
