Hello :) I’m not used to asking questions on here but I’m just curious and I coupdn’t stop myself. How do you think they can turn this whole season the way so it has nothing to do with Buddie. Because since the first episode of season 7 they’ve been writing their lines with kind of a deeper meaning, in a way that can be understood like a foreshadowing in them going canon (like the whole jealousy plot where Buck is still so obviously confused to what/who he wanted, Tommy’s „MY attention?”, the coming out scene when Buck says he’s relieved and he looks anything but). I have my clown shoes on and I don’t see how they can end this season without giving us a hint at Buddie (my guess is Buck will have some kind of feelings realisation about Eddie) but knowing what they did to couch theory and other times where they crushed shippers hopes showing only their friendship and nothing more I’m trying to brace myself for another dissapointment. Like, we are all just so sure about Buddie, but what if the writers throw another curveball at us? And what could that curveball possibly be? Anyways, hope you have a nice day! 😊
Hello! Thank you for taking the time to send me a question! I’m always happy to answer 🥰
Here’s the thing, the last two seasons were all weird bc we had another show runner who point blank made it clear she wasn’t on board with Buddie being romantic in any way. She legit called that will reveal scene platonic and said it’s normal for best friends bc her mother and her female best friend did the same thing. She was allergic to queer people. We have the return of show runner who was the original show runner. He was always pro Buddie even if he never point blank said so. This man killed off Shannon bc he knew the fans were angry with her for leaving her child. He liked a tweet that said Shannon was Eddie’s beard. He’s been proactively and consistently sharing Buddie content before the season even started. Also talking about how much he enjoys Buck and Eddie’a dynamic and is going to try to hit that in every episode. The first episode was very much a reintroduction and what did they do? They showed Buck, Eddie, and Christopher as a whole ass family unit. They made it clear to everyone tuning in that those three are a family together.
Now I think the reason Eddie is soooo heavily intertwined with Buck’s scenes is bc it’s intentional. I also am under the impression, as I’ve said many times recently, that Tim not only spoke to Oliver earlier in the season about his plans, but also Ryan. There’s a deliberate reason as to why Oliver and Ryan are actively promoting this season together. I will die on this hill that Ryan is fully aware. And we had that confirmed when Lou pretty much said it was originally supposed to be Tommy and Eddie but things didn’t work out. So what that actually tells me is that Tim has plans to make BOTH Buck and Eddie queer. And he’s going with Buck first but will eventually get to Eddie. They already planted massive seeds in 7.05 by bringing up religious guilt and all that talk about Eddie’s Catholicism. It’s happening and that is a far better way to tell Eddie’s story than him being kissed by a man randomly. So I just, idk even with this new interest in Buck and Tommy, I truly don’t think it’s something that will divert the writers and show runner from their original plans, I should hope not. They can’t dismiss 6 years of development for a new love interest especially when said love interest is a literal copy of Eddie. So I don’t think they’ll switch gears and I think we’re on the same page as to what is coming up for them. Literally the fact that they made Buck bi confirms to me that Buddie is inevitable.

also thoughts on jannik/carlos/holger as an entity? i know the need for constant trios in tennis is kind of annoying but they are interesting to me ok
no I totally get that, as much as I hate the need to find a "new big three", trios are SO compelling and well, the three of them have no shortage of compelling dynamics
I actually just made a post about this but carlos and holger being born six days apart is just ridiculous. there had to be some kind of fate involved because WHAT are the chances. that video of them playing doubles when they were kids is so dear to me, and I love how holger is like "yeah you could just tell we were better" because a) that's a very holger thing of him to say and b) is he wrong? no. also the way holger was defending carlos earlier this year just warmed my heart, it's always lovely to see them supporting each other
and ah, jannik and holger. "find the positives." there is not a single tennis player who manages to frustrate jannik quite like holger does and it's just so funny. obviously they had all that monte carlo drama which was just so unnecessary like??? just don't hit the ball at him??? do you know how annoying you have to be to make jannik sinner complain to the umpire. and then there was the atp finals where jannik easily could have tanked to stop novak from making the semis but instead he played an insane epic three setter, after which holger wrote a very long congratulation story and called him a "national hero." and then this year, back in monte carlo... that match had everything. and then of course there were holger's tweets, which weren't directed at jannik but he was definitely involved. they're so funny. "jesus christ 🙄"
and sincaraz. oh sincaraz. I don't think I need to ramble about this one lol, and if I did we'd be here all day
the tennis these three play, both against each other and others, is truly amazing to watch. I'm excited to see how they develop as players and as people in the years to come!

really, really do not understand why everybody’s so insistent that jason todd would not be a red lantern if he were to get a ring
people making lantern aus will put him in the sinestro corps, in the star sapphires, and now he's got a green ring for some reason, and okay? that’s fine? like i’m not about to gatekeep - you should do whatever you want! but the fact is the dude is, like, textbook red lantern
his entire character arc mirrors that of the red lanterns almost 1:1 - right down to the being killed, brought back in a sort of unconscious state, and needing to be dunked in a magical pool to regain their memories/minds
sometimes the most obvious answer is the right one

Saw someone I followed on my dash complaining about how artists are being self-centered and ridiculous and thinking they’re more important and special than they are to be complaining about the upsurge in AI art… they even compared it to being upset if canning vegetables became automated, which is like a completely different subject matter. Then I found the post that incited them to say such things and it was literally tweets from an artist pointing out how their art was literally being stolen and reused for AI art, and this blog that I was following called them (and other artists in general) egocentric maniacs. I unfollowed them promptly after that of course but now I kinda wish I didn’t cause now I can’t find who that was and Id really like to give them a piece of my mind
