Older siblings in media are so often misunderstood. Either adored or hated, but never an in-between. The pressure is always there, never enough or too much.
It’s the Steven Crain’s who are hated, the Fiona Gallagher’s who are forced onto a pedestal, the Dick Grayson’s who are reduced to nothing but their mistakes and issues, the John Dory’s who is only ever the oppressor and never the oppressed, the Isabela Madrigal’s who are considered vain and self centered.
It’s the eldest child who has no one on their team because they are the leader, and that is either meant to be taken from them or only ever for them.
It’s the Kate Sharma’s and the Anthony Bridgerton’s. It’s the Bill Weasley’s and it’s the Dean Winchester’s. It’s the Eric Matthew’s and it’s the Elsa’s.
The eldest sibling whose mistakes are over analyzed or completely ignored, who are never seen as humans because they are something to claim or destroy. The first born who is never understood in media or by fans, maybe it’s because acknowledging the fact that they’re human means they aren’t perfect is too much. Or maybe it’s because acknowledge that they are human and therefore cannot be defined by their mistakes and the weight they carry is too much.
They are not allowed to be perfect and yet if they are anything but perfect the world would riot.

Inspirado numa trend recente do Twitter que consiste em recriar um meme de Steven Universo com dois “confort characters” de sua escolha.
O meme é esse aqui, claro.

30 Days of the Cornetto Trilogy Challenge || Day 22: A moment from your past that you would love to relive
I didn’t know how to answer the question so I’m drawing girls flirting with each other because I can. I don’t really have one moment, and if I start saying little things it would be a long eternal list with things like “I want to remember how this sweet tasted when I was a kid before they changed the receipt” or “Watch/read my fave things for the first time” and stuff like that

Hester Street (1975)
Period pieces, like any film genre, are always hit or miss affairs. Some films emulate the era perfectly, by nailing the art direction, the costumes and the speech of the era. Then there are period pieces that lack one or more of the above. Unfortunately, Joan Micklin Silver’s “Hester Street” falls under the latter. While it honors the era of its plot, the way its cast presents it falls short.
Tumblr media
In 1896. on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, recent immigrant Yankel (Steven Keats) has assimilated to American life. He’s changed his name to Jake, works as a machinist, and put all religious traditions to the wayside. At the same time that he’s having an affair with a local woman named Mamie (Dorrie Kavanaugh), his wife Gitil (Carol Kane) and son Yossele (Joey) (Paul Freedman) come over to America. In that time, Gitil fails to assimilated like Yankel, and coupled with his constant infatuation for Mamie, their marriage faces its share of challenges.
Tumblr media
“Hester Street” does a great job at portraying late 19th century New York, with its Jewish enclave on the Lower East Side filled with horse carts, fruit stands, beggars and tenements. Director Silver even turns segments of the films into mini silent films where the characters interact with each other without spoken dialogue. Credit cinematographer Kenneth Van Sickle and production designer Stuart Wertzel for their faithful recreation. That’s all well and good, but once the characters speak, is where “Hester Street” starts to lose a lot of its luster. With the exception of from some of the Yiddish language dialogue, the actors seem like they’re playing dress-up instead of living and breathing the era. The actors’ Yinglish accents seem fake and too pronounced to be taken seriously. There’s acting in a matter of fact way, and then there’s over-emphasizing your lines, and “Hester Street” is filled with that in spades.
Tumblr media
Steven Keats is miscast as Yankel aka Jake. His performance is more like a theme park characterization all the way down to his fake mustache, and it’s all a distraction from what should have been a competent performance. Keats only excels at acting like a silent film actor with pratfalls and facial mannerisms. Carol Kane, in her film debut, is too maudlin to really make us care about her. While her command of the Yiddish language is impressive, Kane doesn’t stand out in anything else. She’s boring to watch and it isn’t because of the way her character is written. With two actors that are all wrong in their parts, you don’t route for Jake and Gitil’s marriage to work and if you can’t identify with the characters, you don’t have a fulfilling film.
Tumblr media
“Hester Street” received an Oscar nomination for Carol Kane’s performance which acted more as a filler than a genuine addition. The most laughable nomination was a Writers Guild Award for Best Screenplay, for a story that crams a generic story into 90 minutes without letting us really get into the characters. “Hester Street” could have been a great insight into the Jewish community beyond art direction, but merely scratches the surface over the differences between religion and secularism like a quick PowerPoint presentation. I wanted to know the full back story between Yankel and Gitil and how they got to this point in their lives, but all I got were two poor schmoes that you can find in any bread line or cramped tenement house.

Glitch, are you gay?
I know that ask problably is for the comic, but I want to answear this lmao
Glitch never seen a person before or talked with one. He doesn't know what "love" means or the feeling to be loved by someone especial. Just like the AU's names says, Glitch forgotten about this feeling and know the basic: Happy, sad, angry, surprised...
But as creator, I think Glitch probably is pansexual. He only loves someone for the personality, not gender and stuff.

Grey! JD and Feral! JD Fusion
(Potara fusion because i love dragon ball and everyone else was doing steven universe fusions but i was in the back thinking about dragon ball)
Tumblr media
Chip is the embodiment of introversion. He has tried to leave the Dory House multiple times. Eldest and Hitman have had to grab one of his tails and pull him back inside because he will just fuck off into the woods without a trace. The collective 20 years + 20 years of isolation will do that to a man.
Tumblr media
He is small but strong. Like x1000 strong
Tired 24/7
Lonely lumber jack vibes
Grey! JD belongs to @ijjstlostthegame B>:]
Feral! JD belong to me :P
