#it's genuinely baffling

[official-saul-goodman]

The ghost files series and the puppet history series were such comfort shows for me, sad. No longer.

#it's genuinely baffling #the streaming service isn't even available internationally #and most of the fan base are international #they could literally earn more money if they spent their energy on the YouTube projects #whatever this is what being in LA does to you

Dear (Dutch)tumblr, I have a question for you all:

Would love it if people reblogged to increase the sample size and/or to reach more Dutch blogs! 🙏✨

#nedermemes #dutch #horses #tumblr polls #polls #dutchblr #horse #dutch shit #I am asking this because it is genuinely baffling to me if a dutch person has never seen a horse up close before

been watching mashle and oh my god, the eugenics???? the way lance's parents were so ready to give up their daughter??? no second thought???? just "why did this child have to be born to us?"???? um everyone talking in mash's face about how non-magic people are inherently worthless???? the triple line dude fucking making dolls out of people and somehow no one??? is??? checking him???? and then when questioned immediately jumping into "well humans are little more than mindless beasts and i will become a creator deity and reshape the world in my liking!"????? the, um, corruption in the government??? the way this story is so clearly "h*rry p*tter if it was actually funny"??? the slytherin coded characters are blood purists???? they took out hufflepuff??? one of the magia lupus' mage's powerset was just big shuriken???? another one is rip off kisame???? lance is a siscon and the first thing mash says is "that doesn't make it better"???? lemon is genuinely so fuckin funny??? dot is incel-coded but like in a funny way??? dot says that lance is playing life on "easy mode" cause lance has a good face??? dot likes tea??? dot has good manners??? everybody only has one spell they can use??? finn ames is like if you transported is regular human into this stupid ass world??? i think the old man and the cop have explored each others bodies.

#so many baffling things #the show is genuinely funny tho #mash and lance have something going on and i stg this isn't just me putting my shipping goggles on #also lance is a siscon but like in the most non-weirdest way possible??? like he just doesn't want his baby sis to die #and like yeah the power of her photo is enough for him to fling himself backward into a wall hard enough that it cracks #but he's not like in love with her or whatever. bare minimum victories ig #also when the rap starts it gets sooo hype #not to talk about h*rry p*tter in 2024 but why did they take out hufflepuff?? #that was the only good house #everybody else in that world seem insufferable but hufflepuff seemed like you could get along with them #also they need to stop talking shit about non-magic people in front of mash's face #mashle magic and muscles #mashle #lemon irvine #dot barrett #finn ames #mash burnedead #lance crown

i genuinely would like to see a study on how the fuck the hannibal nbc fandom has remained not just active but thriving online when the show ended in 2015. other more recent shows have come and gone in the years since then but we’ve still got new fics and art and posts happening daily?? how does that happen

#the only other equivalent i’ve seen is supernatural. but that’s supernatural yknow. they built fandom in a cave with a box of scraps #and the hannibal fandom is so much smaller as well but i also think that contributes to us being very close knit? #i also genuinely think that the whole “oh you can’t be normal about hannibal” thing is for real. i don’t think it’s a passive interest #but yeah if anyone has insight please lmk because it truly baffles me #hannibal #hannibal nbc #will graham #hannigram

#honestly in a finale of absolutely baffling choices this is one of the most confusing. in what world #did some (maybe all? we literally don't even know) crew members forgive him? yes #did they love him? jasifjioajfiosjdfjsk #what kills me is i wish. i GENUINELY wish this were true. i would've wanted to see that season so bad #it would be satisfying and make sense and this line would feel earned instead of like a mad lib #ofmd s2 spoilers #ofmd season 2 spoilers #ofmd negativity #shan't be tagging this one further #**

Tbh the best part of feedism is like. I woke up today and went “What if I made myself a whole pizza and got a two-liter of soda and a cheap cake and ice cream and had a birthday pizza party except it isn’t my birthday and it’s all for me” and now I got the pizza in the oven and I’m doing it. Other days I’m like “I just want to have a nice salad today”, and I’ll do that too. It’s so nice to just listen to my cravings ❤️

#tbh also why the ‘you have to force yourself to eat fast food every meal to gain’ mentality baffles me #the days where i eat healthy keep my body from being too mad at me + the insane gluttony days are hotter when it’s following a genuine urge #cain.txt #trans feedee #queer feedee #feeding kink

people are arguing on twt over whether Mikasa or Historia understands Eren the best, when the clear answer is Armin

#baffled because it's literally canon that Armin understands Eren better than anyone else #& Armin is the only person Eren told the whole truth to in the end #so like 🧍‍♀️ #cl thoughts #armin arlert #eren jaeger #eren yeager #Mikasa has her own unique understanding of Eren that is no longer (as of s4) shielded from the cruelty he embodies #Historia understands Eren through their similar roles & experiences & also does not like the guy. They Get each other. begrudgingly #mikasa ackerman #this is not a slight to any other character! #but it's genuinely canon that armin understands eren best #historia reiss #also leave hisu out of these fights #girly keeps catching strays #eremin #erearu #attack on titan #shingeki no kyojin #aot #snk #but also it's hard to rank bc many characters understand different parts of Eren & who can determine which part's most important?

I will never understand how the slightest bit of physical contact with one’s crush will send lightning through their body, make them red as a tomato, and cause them to go crazy and make a fool out of themselves?! Like, my dad told me how “when you get to that age”, even a little bit of contact is gonna cause a lot of feelings?! No?! It doesn’t sound real to me lol

Respectfully, anyone who believes that Roxas shouldn't have come back in kh3 is wrong and also doesn't know how to make a satisfying end to a characters narrative.

I could maybe forgive thinking Naminé or Xion shouldn't have returned, as they at least got to make the informed decision to return to their counterparts themselves. It would still be wrong but I can at least forgive it.

But Roxas? His entire story is about being allowed to be yourself regardless of what anyone else around you says you should be. It doesn't/shouldn't matter if he comes from Sora, because he is someone else entirely. It's his life, not Sora or anyone elses. Having a story like that end with him being violently forced to return to Sora when he doesn't even know anything about what's going on is flat out bad writing.

Did he accept that he had to die for Sora? Well, sure, but only after getting to beat him within an inch of his life. Only reason he accepts it is because he literally has no other choice but to. He can't keep clinging to the anger and misery at his circumstances forever.

And, you know, it probably helps that the person this was all for also fucking hates it. In no way is Sora happy about what happened to Roxas. Of course he'd bring him back, it's Sora. The situation is so unfair and tragic that having it end with him just staying in Sora forever would literally go against the essence of the entire series.

Kingdom Hearts is, at it's core, a series about bonds. Roxas was established basically immediately as having very important bonds! His best friend literally died for him! He has friends that don't even know it because it was another version of them, but they still feel that bond to him anyway! You really think they should've just thrown away a character whose bonds transcended the boundaries between data and reality just like that? Get real.

#sorry not sorry but roxas' narrative is genuinely so important and it baffles me that there are people who genuinely think he shouldnt have #come back in kh3 #like dude do you just hate satisfying happy endings or what? #the ending that roxas got in kh2 is terrible #his entire everything in kh2 is terrible actually #the only one involved in that situation thats on his side (aside from axel but hes not counted) #is also the only one who couldnt do anything until it was too late #and like. in ddd roxas outright says that the reason he could be okay with this #is because its sora specifically #because sora *wouldnt* be okay with it #because hed actually care to do something to fix it #ansem the wise also says exactly that! #that the reason roxas could exist seperately to begin with is bc of soras love for other people!!!!!! #im rambling again but whatever. sometimes people have such astronomically bad takes that it astounds me #roxas #sora #kingdom hearts #kingdom hearts 2 #kh #kh2 #xander rambles

hey i work at [unspecified plastic building object] land and here are some ninjago statistics i’ve collected from actual children who watch the show in present day from the past few weeks:

“who’s your favourite ninja?”- 95% of the time it’s lloyd. any other time its jay. one time it was nya, another time it was kai. the children do not yearn for glacier.

2. there is a sculpture of nya in ninjago the ride queue that always generates a conversation. however, this sculpture is based off season 5 nya with short hair and her reddish blue gi. the most shocking thing to me… KIDS DONT RECOGNISE HER. i’ve overheard so many “who’s that?” followed by “i don’t know”s and it’s actually whiplash. why are we old

3. a lot of young girls like ninjago! this is really awesome actually because i remember being a little kid and being one of the only girls in my class at the time who liked it and it was heavily marketed as a “boys toy” so it’s nice to see that they are making ninjago for everyone . . . because it is. like everyone can enjoy these little ninja people

4. the ninjago is still IN. i actually before i started working here was worrying ninjago was falling off and the newer generations wouldn’t really care about it but u guys the children DO still yearn for ninjas and it’s very clear. which was a pleasant surprise :3 it’s truly becoming a generational thing as silly as that sounds

i can’t make these into a whole bullet point, but here is some assorted other stuff that i find funny:

kids actually just wear the ninjago pyjamas to the park like as clothes like straight up

the fang blades, jade blades and nya’s sword pack (which btw what even is that she does not use dual swords) fly off the shelves and i truly wonder why because these kids weren’t even around circa tournament of elements era. perhaps they just like throwing swords around

sometimes they dress up in ninja clothes and i always compliment their outfit and show off my keychain (luckily i had a lloyd one on me one day when a kid was dressed as him) and kids LIGHT UP when they know i know what i’m talking about. it’s one of the best parts of my day actually

tune in next time for more [unnamed colourful building toy] land stories everyone

#it’s so so funny watching the parents be baffled thag i also know about ninjago in great detail #i told my managers i’ve genuinely seen every season multiple times and they position me in the ninjago area on purpose #ninjago lloyd #lego ninjago masters of spinjitsu #lloyd garmadon #lego #legoland #definately not that #place i do not work #ninjago #lego ninjago #work stories

desperately need people to understand that alicent is a victim but she’s also an abuser and a perpetrator

that she actively makes choices to harm other women because of jealousy and envy and the greed deep in her bones because submitting to suffering didn’t get her what those women fight to grasp for themselves.

she is absolutely a victim, in show.

that doesn’t change that she abused rhaenyra and her children, her own son, most likely helaena given how she flinches every time her mother touches her, and is actively weaponizing the patriarchy of westeros against other women- rhaenyra primarily, but also mysaria and dyana.

she isn’t the moral, righteous force of good that even she thinks she is, she’s a wounded woman directing all of the rot, pain, and fury inside her at the wrong people and forces.

#anti team green stans #anti team green #anti alicent hightower stans #i don’t wanna say it’s anti alicent bc honestly it’s more ‘accept her for who she is bc she’s so much more complex and interesting when you #but i made this bc someone genuinely tried to say that the reason people hate her is that they don’t see her as a victim #most rational people know show!alicent is a victim #it’s the point that’s she’s an abuser as well #that makes them dislike her #that she’s a hypocrite and a traitor #i don’t even like young alicent bc i don’t at all think she was a good friend to rhaenyra #‘it’s not your place to question the plots of lords and men’ to the named heir #dismisses rhaenyra’s hopes and idealism entirely out of hand #is baffled that rhaenyra is more worried for her fathers happiness and mother’s wellbeing than her position #she knew as early as ep 3 that otto was conspiring against rhaenyra and never told anyone #condemns ‘targaryen customs’ only to wed her daughter to her son even younger than she was when otto dangled her before viserys #acts entitled to rhaenyras secrets whilst condemning and judgemental even though she did not give rhaenyra that same courtesy #made no attempt at apology for the insensitive comment of aegon’s birth #though rhaenyra DID try to apologize for the ‘imprisoned in a castle’ line and tried to comfort her #uses her power as queen to push past the space rhaenyra is trying to create because she feels heartbroken and betrayed #rhaenyra took part in alicent’s culture with prayer at alicent’s urging because she cared about alicent and alicent was trying to help her #alicent is never once shown to return that favor instead condemning it for ‘queerness’ and growing to later #erase and remove all targaryen and valyrian heraldry from the red keep to replace with her own #like alicent is a victim and i DO have empathy for her. but i don’t like her and never will #especially not after the way her stans behave #she deserved better than otto’s machinations and viserys’…. viserysness #but that can also be true whilst i condemn her actions and behaviors
