#Fuck Disney but the way

i know people are good because of this: the universe often assigns me side quests. in a circular strangeness; despite my inability to locate my-own-anything, i am almost-always finding someone else's lost things. dogs, coats, phones, cash, laptops. it happens so often it's almost tiring; suddenly being looped into a tiny amount of detective work.
but when i'm with other people who are not used to this: the response is almost invariably delight. yes, maybe they are simply thrilled by the mystery. it's just... they light up so much. i think maybe more... i think they like the opportunity to do something kind.
a few weeks ago, i was at a bar and i found a wallet as soon as we stepped outside. i felt nervous to ask for help, worried i would be holding up the night. i picked it up and said go on without me, i should help this get back to its home.
instead, three people pulled out their phones - to find him on facebook, to help cancel his credit cards. two people went back into the bar to tell the bartender, two others went calling down the street. group texts, facebook posts, instagram stories. people, without even seeing what happened, start offering help to me. fifteen minutes and: someone knows someone who knows the guy. the cheer that went up - just for finding him, just for this small thing. someone gets him on the phone. strangers dance around me, hopping on their feet - are you the girl that found that wallet? good for you, that's a good thing you're doing/same thing happened to me and somebody did what you're doing and i thank god everyday for people like you/i can't believe you found him so fast this is so exciting
i gave it back to him in a parking lot. i watched his shoulders sag with relief. there was cash in it still - he checked the pocket, and then sheepishly held the money out to me. i didn't take it. i held up my hands. "it's no problem, man. i know you'd do the same for me."
i don't know him, to be honest. i don't know if he is the same kind of person i am. but he nodded at me.
and i know people are good. i know people are good, because the way this story ends isn't surprising. we wave goodbye awkwardly. my friend loops their arm around me.
"i can't believe we got it back to him," they said. "i'm going to be riding that high for weeks."

charlie bushnell the actor that you ARE. the pain and resentment and horror on his face throughout that scene. his hesitation when he was about to kill percy. the simultaneous regret and determination. the fact that he hated annabeth seeing who he had become but like charlie said in an interview, is willing to do anything. luke is supposed to be an empathetic character. the way he narrated "look, I know you didn't want to be a halfblood" at the beginning of the episode paralleling percy, showing us just how easy it would have been for percy to end up like luke. both percy and the audience are supposed to understand exactly where luke is coming from, to empathise deeply with his disappointment in the gods and the desperation that resulted from it. and my god did charlie bushnell achieve that

tv & movie producers when you tell them to make a movie about fantasy racism that doesn't argue that racism is actually an entirely valid response to the very real evil thing that the fantasy Black/Indigenous people actually did do to the fantasy White people

Gay ships getting screwed over by homophobic producers/writers as soon as they get wind of it is nothing new, but what has been done to stucky really is uniquely cruel. 
I’ve never heard of a gay ship having one member’s importance to the other simply... written out of the show/film? (Has this been done?) 
Never heard of a gay ship having decades of important source material about them deliberately sabotaged just to spite a  gay ship (that wasn’t even canonically gay or ever going to be so, anyway?) 
Or having the (heterosexual-ising) female character literally put into the male character’s canon place, using his gay-inspiring scenes, with any other ship. 
I’ve never heard of an actor’s brilliant performance, which made certain lines iconic; whose skill as an actor is the very reason they’re iconic...  simply being taken away from him and credited to an untalented actress who never said them. 
Just to damage an un-canon gay ship?! 
Imagine they brought out new Trek shows with Kirk and Spock and said ‘anyway, Spock never meant anything to Kirk, every Spirk thing he said was actually said to/about his new wife Spacky (Woman who joined the Hating-Vulcans Society and hired guys to torture Spock) and here’s a flashback to Spacky as Kirk’s Chief Science Officer all those years. Also we will be buying up other media and editing all tie-ins to reflect that they are nOT GAY.’ 
It’s unprecedentedly monstrous.

getting so fucked up listening to Kevin Perjurer talking to Adam Conover about how the Disney channel theme documentary was only supposed to be twenty minutes. How it was supposed to be a joke, the punchline being “it’s just four notes, it’s not that deep”. He was just gonna find the guy who did it and do a silly ironic interview, and then the story behind the theme unfolded and hit something true and meaningful.

my biggest beef with disneys star wars shows is that none of them can ever MEAN anything
disney DID their trilogy! they told their big story!! now any of the shit they churn out will be functionally meaningless because THE STORIES ALREADY BEEN TOLD!!! din having the darksaber doesn't mean anything because it CANT! ahsoka finding ezra wont have any real effect on the GFFW!! thrawn doing whatever, means absolutely nothing!!
thats why we have shit that's so interesting until it fizzles out because they cant go against the canon theyre written

Sometimes your found family consists of a whore, an alcoholic, a grumpy lesbian, a cheery bisexual who low-key has some hidden rage in them, a child who looks kind but secretly bites ankles, someone who would be prefect as a cooky disney villain, and someone who should be in either jail or a mental institution

Possible Hot Take: I want Disney take over the Kane Chronicles and turn them into a tv show. Netflix has a bigger chance of ruining the story with a few movies. And I know Netflix typically does alright with their original stuff but still. TKC already doesn't have as big of a following as PJO or HoO. Rick still needs to be part of production and everything, but Netflix should just leave it alone.
