the percy jackson tv show is actually great when there isn’t a little shit in your ear telling you it’s not “book accurate”

#it’s book accurate enough FOR ME #god can we just try to enjoy something for once #it’s an ADAPTATION. it is not gonna be copy and pasted from the books #but they have the tone and the humor and the CHARACTERS and the themes right #isn’t that what really matters? #and some of yall are acting like they changed the entire plot when really it’s just small changes that service the tv format #and deepen character relationships and interactions #seeing book fans say the movies are better is the most absurd thing i’ve heard in my life… like did we watch the same movies #every single thing the show does wrong is still light years better than every single thing the movies got right #can’t we just enjoy that please #can you tell i’m sick of the nitpicking😭 #anyways maybe try to have fun for once in ur life idk #also ur allowed to have constructive criticism that’s so valid. or criticism at all #ofc u should critique the media u enjoy #but saying it’s not a good adaptation is kinda crazy to me idk #when it’s so clear how much thought was put in by the creators and cast to get it right this time #pjo tv #pjo tv show #pjotv #percy jackson #pjo #percy jackson and the olympians #pjo spoilers #percy jackon and the olympians #ruch rambles #sorry to hide all that in the tags but it feels very angry and i don’t want to be mean😭 i have the crit tag filtered for a reason lol #i’m choosing joy #but i just wanted to put these thoughts out there

[eebie]

#i personally feel like it's somewhere in between #like sexuality and gender i think it's where you decide to choose what label your experiences/feelings fall under #it's decided between the two people in the relationship #like intimacy can exist in every kind of relationship and it's upsetting to hear people say it can only happen in romantic ones #if i were in a relationship with someone i trusted Who had an intimate relationship with someone else #if i really trusted that person i'd have no problem with it Unless it very clearly started to affect our relationship #i don't think i'd call myself a very jealous person #maybe a little envious but not jealous lol #i think restricting intimacy to one person isn't very. healthy? i don't know #like there should be other people too. support networks #we're a social animal yknow ? #it can't be possible for one person to fulfill every single need #that's an unhealthy expectation that can put a strain on many relationships i think #there's a reason spider webs are made from joined threads of silk #they don't dangle from a single piece They'd get blown away in the wind #reason why i bring this up now is bc i just discussed this with my parents who hold very traditional views #idk how i ended up being so different from them LMAO #thanks steven universe i guess!!!

hey guys am i allowed to say on main that i dont like metadad . am i gonna get beaten up for saying this.

guys i think we all took the term found family too literally and now everythings flattened into a boring nuclear family. guys can we stop. hello . is anybody there

#text #it was kinda charming at first but it feels like everytime i try to look at the mk tag its always the same shit . guys. guys. #we can do so much more w/ their dynamics than just dad and son ugh its so . ughhh. #every since i realized i was like . really really aroace. ive started to grow a bit of a distaste for shipping culture #this is relavant i swear. iwanna talk about metadede #like ok in fandoms right. theres often #the enforcement of specific roles onto characters for a simplified understanding of them for memes and drawing ideas #we want gay rep but we dont quite have it canonically so we make our queer headcanons seem more legit #by giving a char a same sex partner. ok easy we did it. gay people are real now #and we get awesome art and its wonderful bc people are wonderful #but its like . the relationships themselves feel flat a lot of the times. #metadede never seems to be about dedede. its about mk having a boyfriend. bc we need him to date someone. #and im not like . mad at anyone about this. i participated in it back in the day. but like. #ok so. gay hcs are the most popular in most fandom things bc its easy; hot; and sweet #but things like aro or ace hcs? its just. they. how can you depict that in a single framed drawing of a char?so theres none at all. #its not even that i actively hc chars aroace its jsut this is my world view; how i default to reading chars #maybe this rant in the tags is unrelated after all. #but idk. ive got lots of thoughts about things. #anyways as ceo of meta knigth im right about everything #i can talk more about metadad stuff specifically if people want

OKAY I’ve had an idea for these OCs for a long ass time now but I’ve finally jotted them down and I’m about to become such a problem about them. The core idea was literally just “lol wouldn’t it be funny if there was a mini van transformer who partnered up with a soccer mom” and then I thought “actually it’d be funnier if it was a straight up muscle car and completely did not fit the suburban mom vibes at all” so now here we are. They’re co-parenting <33

#transformers #maccadam #tf ocs #original character #I absolutely adore human transformer relationships #they’re always my favorite part of every new cartoon #sometimes you’re just a tired overworked single mom who has an alien robot crash land in your backyard and you just have to roll with it #gonna make character tags for them #Camille Reed #Leah Reed #Niko Reed #Charlotte Reed #Top Speed

There are only so many fanfics that use the entirety of DC as cardboard cutouts to prop up bat family characters that I can read before I go berserk.

I swear to god. Every character that has ever been shipped with a bat or coexists on the same team as a bat is owed an apology.

How many Young Justice fanfics that solely revolve around Tim must exist? How many Titans fanfics centered only on Dick? Why is it a herculean task to find a Justice League fanfic without Bruce as the main character?

And then even when you do find a fic that seems like it's balanced, everything still revolves around the bat. Like Kon, Cassie and Bart have nothing else going on in their lives except Tim and Tim's issues or thinking about Tim. Like Donna and Wally and Roy just cannot function if they aren't spending every waking moment thinking about Dick.

I'm... Guys. I'm at my limit. I swear to god. We need to make a Batman tag and surgically remove all these fics and quarantine them there. We'll keep the actual DC fics and they can do whatever the fuck they want in their own tag. It's getting ridiculous how hard it is to find fanfic that's actually DC related and isn't just 'The BatFam Show'.

#im going INSANE #i literally just have to filter out the batfam characters at this point #and even that doesn't help sometimes #holy shit guys what is GOING ON #seriously if i see one more fic thats all 'haha the justice league meets the batfam and they're so shocked! 😯 because they're crazy 🤣' #i don't know how to explain to you people that THEY HAVE SEEN WEIRDER #a bunch of ninja kids aren't even making the top ten weirdest moments my dude. like. at all. #not even remotely #i can't stress ENOUGH how normal that would be to them #anyway im going fucking bonkers over here #dc #dc comics #or god fucking damnit the YJ fics that literally just have Kon's life revolving around Tim #and Cassie and Bart are just background scenary. and only exist to push Kon and Tim together. I'm going to go fucking nuts #ship whoever you want but at least have the character have an actual character beyond 'love interest' #also jfc. every. single. birdflash fic. that has Wally just be a love interest with literally nothing fucking else going on #except his relationship with Dick. work? family? life? villains?? nope! no he's just madly in love with Dick and cute and thats it! #im GOING INSANE

are we excited to approach qniki with nuance

#eleanor.txt #i have the same issue with courtney whitmore that the fandom excuses a lot of her actions that should not be excused #this may shock some of you. female characters can be flawed #they will make mistakes. and do bad things #i do think half of it is jokingly #but holding women and female characters to this impossibly high standard of moral perfection and excusing their every single action #is not a great move imo #she’s going to fuck up and we need to let her and be normal about it #this goes for qrivers too #qsmp #when i start posting qniki meta and i WANT to post qniki meta. i will be tapping this sign #going to ask that everybody gets real thoughtful real quick #going to request we stop reductive ethics in female character critique. please. for me #it’s very much the same vein as (but not identical to) the reduction of her to her relationships w male characters #she’s going to be friends with some of them and you Have to be normal about it #she may even flirt with some of them! she may be in a canonical relationship at some point on the server! be regular about that #nihachu

Sometimes i remember a comics moment i randomly came across somewhere, where Sam Wilson mentiones a musical and Steve Rodgers says he doesn't like musicals, to whitch Sam goes "Guess that means you really are straight" and even tho i don't care about Cap America or the Avengers, the moment stuck in me for that quote by Sam. And like....Sci, any ideas if straight men actually don't like musicals or is that bullshit?

actually i think i know more gay men who hate musicals than i know straight men who hate musicals. i've had a drag queen stop me point blank when i was about to sing a barbra streisand song, and i know so many gays who pointedly hate abba. so based on my experience i think the inverse is true. most of the straight men i know are kind of impartial about musicals, but gay men? hate.

my theory is that a lot of gay men don't want to fall into stereotypes, maybe. but thaaaaat's just a theory! a gay theory.

#sci speaks #i'm trying to understand the gays. they are a mystery to me. #i've seen a lot more toxic masculinity coming from gay men than i have from straight men. #i think it makes sense. they have less women in their lives. so they reckon with a lot more masculinity. more dick measuring. #also gay men have some of THE most unhealthy romantic relationships i've ever seen in my life. #this isn't a blanket statement on everyone but just from what i've seen. it's such a strange pattern i've observed. #lesbians? healthy. straights? usually healthy. gay men? universally a tire fire that makes me say “if you hate each other so much ??” #“why are you together??????????” #i have never met a cis gay mlm couple in real life that was healthy. every single one of them made my eyes widen in horror. #i want them to be healthy. please treat each other better. #the number of bitchy bitchy fights i've seen between mlm couples in public that make me so terrified #but i know mlm relationships in general are usually less... affectionate than wlw relationships. even and especially friendships. #just an observation. #i hate to say that there is a definite difference between amab vs afab experiences when it comes to relationship dynamics but. #of course there is. there is. as much as i want to say gender and sex do not matter. it really does. #it makes a difference. it does. #which is kind of why i'm glad i was born in the body i was. when people say “trans means you feel you were born in the wrong body” #im like.. i don't think that's true. i don't think that's true for me. #i wouldn't be me if i wasn't born the way i was. and i want to be me. but i'm a boy. i'm a boy but in the body that i have. #my body is still a boy's body. because i live in here. #sorry this went off on a tangent. #but yeah i know my brain would be different if i was amab. and i don't want all those other issues. #i think the only reason i'm so peaceful and serene is because i'm afab. and afabulous. #i see cis guys and im like.. yeah i don't want what you got. #once again! lucky to be me! i'm lucky. im lucky i have a vargooba. thank fuck for that! #couldve been so much worse off. could've been born with a dick and would be fighting for my life right now.

Oh I am *cackling* at the producers trying to claim the show was driven by Loki and Sylvie's relationship when she refused to lift a finger to help multiple times (while platonic bestie Mobius was living out romcom moments by the dozen with Loki), and honestly they could have not had her in the season at all and barely anything would change. Like, I don't like that ship but it's still SO deeply disrespectful to give them NOTHING on screen all season while giving all the cute classically shippy moments to Lokius, and then come out after and claim it was some grand, sweeping romance and also there was nothing intentional about giving all the shippy stuff to Lokius. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Also, as I said in some tags, the "we can't get into Loki's head" like is just....peek absurdity. My brother in Christ, YOU'RE the writers! This character has been in the MCU for like, 14 years, played by Hiddleston who is *obsessed* with Loki. Getting into Loki's head should have been a cake walk! And even if it wasn't, IT'S LITERALLY YOUR JOB TO GET IN THE CHARACTER'S HEAD. Maybe this is why shows are so shitty? Instead of letting the characters drive the plot by getting into their heads and making choices from that perspective, showrunners instead twist the characters into a storyline.

ANYWAY.

#loki #anti sylki #anti sylvie #to be safe #i honestly don't care enough about her to be anti and i think her character (and loki's) got shafted by shitty writing #but i don't need rabid fans in my inbox #i'm in a fair amount of pain so i'm being bitchy but honestly #what a clusterfuck #and after OFMD and GO this year pulled out amazing seasons you gotta turn around and pull this shit? #i am a person who LOVES love stories #i want to see the sweeping romance! i love cheesy christmas romcoms! #and i can tell you right now as a lover of romantic tropes the relationship you're claiming was romantic had ZILCH this season #while your 'platonic' male besties were hitting multiple romantic tropes and moments every. single. episode. #there WAS a sweeping romance being told (just ask your composer) #and if you couldn't see it or you think not showing it in the other pair and claiming it was there in an article after the fact #instead of PUTTING IT ON SCREEN which is your literal job to convey the story in a visual way to the audience #then maybe you shouldn't be the one in charge #if you have to tell people after the show is over that something was actually a romance and something else actually WASN'T a romance #then you did not effectively use your time in the show to tell the story you were trying to tell

After meeting Phantom’s numerous ghostly mentors, Batman finally backs off from trying to adopt Phantom.

Then he meets Danny Fenton.

Danny finally managed to maneuver his way out of being adopted only to have to do it all over again. Ancients, he needed a nap

#danny phantom #batman #dp x dc #up to you if B runs into Danny as Bruce or as Batman #if he’s Bruce then Danny’s gonna think he just has bad luck and is somehow a billionaire magnet #if he’s Batman Danny might just stage an intervention lmao #Batman you can’t just adopt every single child you meet #unfortunately Danny’s relationship with his parents is far more concerning then his ghostly mentors #think clockwork frostbite etc. #he’s gonna have a much harder time convincing ppl to stop trying to adopt him this time around lmao

​Art I made about my twin brother being out of state for a couple of days

#this abt. we share two classes this school year #and I’ve notified his lack in every single one. I don’t usually notice how close we are until he’s gone #how can you notice something that’s always been there? #I was born knowing him and I’ve never known a life without him #I don’t know what I’m going to do when he moves out. I hate having to share a bathroom with him #he wants to get out of here as soon as possible. I don’t blame him. I want to stay #does he need me as much as I need him? could I live without him? could I live without him? #twins #siblings #sibling relationship #artists on tumblr #art

listen, i'll say it

if S3 doesn't give us significantly more Colin scenes, it'll be a failure

Colin is completely underdeveloped as a character. He has gotten just about 0 POV. All we know about him is either filtered through Penelope or in an ensemble scene with everyone else. And at this point, even if S3 is half and half, it still won't be fair. To balance out the discrepency, it should at *least* be 75% Colin and maaaaaaaaybe 25% Pen because we've gotten nothing for him

I ship Polin, I like Pen, but I'm over getting Pen's POV all the time. We've had enough of it. We've certainly had an unfair amount of it in comparison to his. I'm sick of seeing all the Whistledown behind the scenes and all her quiet contemplative moments when Colin doesn't so much as get 5 minutes focused on him being on the boat, or on his travels, writing his letters or talking through a problem to himself.

I love Colin. He's my absolute favorite character. And it sucks to have a favorite character who is *supposed* to be a lead but has had a grand total of nothing. Bton stripped him of character qualities and threw them onto Benedict, gave Colin like 5 lines, and filtered near all his 'development' through Penelope. Aside from his 'everyone says that [I'm Daphne's favorite]', our literal second scene of Colin is through Penelope's eyes. Everything he says, everything he does: it's always through Penelope's eyes. And I'm over it. I wanna see the world through *Colin's* eyes. And it would only deepen the narrative if we do.

Listen, the directors and showrunners have called Colin 'stupid' or 'dim' or 'not smart enough for Penelope'. The fandom has been rather blatant with their disregard of him, calling him boring, that he's not leading man material, writing him as a cardboard cutout in fics, assuming he's an empty charmer (hmmmm, just like what he's upset about in the books), and it's all because he's been denied a narrative. Colin is a rich, nuanced character. He's funny, he's kind, he's compassionate, he rejects toxic masculinity, he's got imposter syndrome like nothing else, he has a very unique role in his family and experienced a very unique perspective after his father died, he has hobbies (writing, boxing, fencing, studying, traveling) and strong values. But we've barely gotten any of it. Sure, we're *told* some things about him, but we never *see* it.

So if S3 is going to be his time to shine, his season, his falling arse over elbow in love era, they *have* to give us his perspective, and I don't fucking want it all to be his perspective about Pen. I am *tired* of Colin as an extension of Penelope. Penelope has had so much room and time and care to be a character on her own. Colin has gotten nothing. And that kind of dynamic does not a good love story make. And if all that underdevelopment wasn't to pull an Uno Reverse on us and give us a season that focuses on him and builds him up, what was it even for?

S3 should be Colin's story

#polin #bridgerton #colin bridgerton #penelope featherington #bridgerton season 3 #yeah yeah penelope's a fan favorite #i wonder why #maybe it's because she has the lions share of scenes and development compared to literally every other character #and i get it: she's a main #but so is colin #why do constantly have to undermine him in order to prop her up? #did we *really* need all those 'pen writes LW' scenes when we haven't even seen Colin in Greece? or gotten him writing letters on the boat? #did we need all that unnecessary backstory when the only scene we got of him processing his broken engagement on his own was him in bed #for 30 seconds? #do we really need to center penelope's point of view for every single aspect of their relationship? #colin is supposed to be falling in love in season 3 too #give us his fucking perspective!!!! *show us* who he is #what he wants and values #AND we'll finally get Penelope from someone else's eyes. . .who ISN'T Penelope #how can you NOT want Colin pov??? #the writing has failed him *and* us because we don't even fucking have POLIN right now #we have Penelope and a sexy lamp she throws her romantic feelings and frustrations and expectations onto #and before the 'bton is aimed at a specific audience' bit (namely women) #some of us wlw (who often find ourselves relating to the male love lead *because* we both love women) also deserve a slice of the story #it's not just you straight girls out here #and as a wlw? right now the fanon version of penelope is the kind of woman i'd run crying and screaming from
