#it's like y'all want only the most perfect 1 to 1 remake or nothing
Text
I'm on the second half of the season, now, and I feel like y'all are trying to gaslight me into not liking it.
Especially the Zuko/Iroh stuff is very good. It's just that this story is condensed into 8 episodes.

Rank your top 5 Belmonts And if you have the energy/desire to do more: Rank your top 5 Castlevania games Rank your top 5 Castlevania tracks
5) Richter. I don't think much of the guy, but undeniably he is a very important figure, the symbol of the cracking of the Belmont legacy. At first, he's a hotblooded shonen young warrior, full of energy and life and will to fight... and then we learn that the will to fight is actually an issue, because after he defeated Dracula at age 19, he found no other reason to live.
4) Simon. Got higher up to the list in recent times <3 he's the Belmont, without any drama or obvious flaw. But I've come to like that about him, and admire his feats in Simon's Quest that show that he's not just a formidable badass, but a very noble man too, willing to even bury his foe out of respect.
3) Leon. He deserved none of that :( Leon is another Belmont mainly defined by his noble nature, perhaps to a fault (my good man why are you storming a vampire castle without a sword). His shining moment is, of course, him rejecting Mathias' absurd proposal: he may be full of anger against his former friend, to the point of swearing vengeance and dooming his descendants to a lifetime of fighting, but he also refuses to fall into the pit Mathias won't escape from, and has the perfect rebuttal for his inane logic and indirectly Dracula as a whole: "But defeating him... No, preventing others from suffering the same cursed fate... That was Sara's dying wish... Granting my beloved's wish. That is all I can do to prove my love to Sara. Eternity without her would be nothing but emptiness."
2) Juste. The golden child in deep denial :D It's a bit unfair that he gets reduced to "Alucard Belmont" and at most praised for his OP powers, but hey, he's not the only one. He has an interesting personality if you read between the lines, from his brashness that contrasts with his angelic looks, to how fervently he forces Maxim to keep Lydie in the dark. Also he's the king of interior decor :P
1) Trevor. He's the Sonic of Castlevania. He invented the Superpower of Teamwork™. He's kind and helpful to those he considers his friends and a terrifying menace if he thinks you're in his way (he won't ask first). He has the Legs of all time. His theme slaps an inordinate amount of ass. He's shaped like a friend and I love him <3
(a close runnerup would be Christopher, because I really like the concept of an older Belmont, who thought that could retire, nyooming to rescue his son from Dracula's influence <3 a prelude of things to come <3)
~
I was sure I had already ranked them, but perhaps I need to remake the list anyway...
5) Adventure ReBirth. Admittedly it's been a while since I replayed it, but I have fond memories of it as far as Classics go. It's simple, it's well designed, it's fun, it has kickass remixes (Aquarius <3) I wish it wasn't so obscure because I think it's the best entry point for those interested in the genre.
4) Portrait of Ruin. Y'all sleep on this title unfairly. Jonathan and Charlotte are very fun to play as, the gimmick of the paintings allows for new locations rarely explored in the series, it has an interesting mission system that makes the game more fun to master, and an OST that seriously deserves more love.
3) Curse of Darkness. Yes, it's noticeably flawed, from the mindnumbing level design to the obtusity of Forging. It's not a game I can pick up whenever I want, the only reason I can't put it in first place. But aside from that, it honestly feels like it was designed just for me and my tastes lmao. The fighting/crafting/raising loop is incredibly addictive and reminds me of the Sonic Adventure games <3 and ofc, as you could tell, I'm in love with the characters and story :P
2) Symphony of the Night. The one, the myth, the legend. Describing it feels like a waste of time. It's a timeless classic for a reason. It may not be perfect, but much like Super Metroid, I think the atmosphere is so well crafted that it pulls you in regardless of any issues you might have. It's an experience to be had.
1) Harmony of Dissonance. Oh yeah. This game is stupid fun to me. I just pick it up and play it to wind down. The ability to dash in both directions makes it a 10/10, then you add the spells that are fun to experiment with, the breakability, the COLORS FEEL SO RIGHT, the eerie music (yes it's good! it's good!!! fight me!!!!), Maxim Mode...
~
I was also sure I had this list... how could I pick only 5 tracks from this giant, beautiful repertoire...? D:
5) Chapel of Dissonance. Unlike many of the tracks in this soundtrack, this one is perfectly hummable and sweet. It fits the beautiful sky like a glove, and it may subtly reference Divine Bloodlines which is a stroke of genius :)
4) Lost Painting. SoTN abunds in jaw-dropping tracks, but this one feels uniquely magical, and it plays just in the right areas of the castle (a chapel, a library, and icy caves). It sounds like a sad lullaby sung to Alucard, and I hear reluctance to venture further and fight.
3) Garibaldi Courtyard. I have no clue why this mundane area in the game has music that brings me to tears. Similar in atmosphere to Lost Painting and Fog-Enshrouded Nightscape, but with CoD's more modern sound. I don't know how to put into words the profound sadness I hear here.
2) Dracula Battle (SCIV). I cannot gush enough about the genius of this track as the final boss theme. It never gets faster, or drop a harder beat: you only get these long strings and this complex arpeggio for an unsettling atmosphere. I said back then: "It sounds like you're quietly resigning yourself to your fate. You will die. But that's alright. He will die too."
1) Leon's Theme. This could pass for a classical piece. It's perfect in every way. You can almost touch Leon's sorrow and anger - you can hear the fingers pressing on the piano! It gets you pumped to reach the end of the game, and you get to grieve with Leon for the terrible night he's going through. Special shoutout for the part at 1:34 for sounding like the aforementioned Dracula theme.

you know, everyday I am in this fandom and everyday I notice how mlm and wlw ships are not given the same treatment at all.
people were SO QUICK to drop eskam after Irene said that (and I'm absolutely not excusing it, whether she apologized or not it was wrong) saying it's a problematic show and it sucks and we shouldn't watch it anymore.
1) Irene isn't the show itself, there are plenty of problematic actors in other remakes but this was never a reason to drop them for these same people.
2) while eskam has absolutely some problematic elements (whitewashing Yousef, making Cris skinny, a good part if not all season 4, not many race and body diversity etc) that we absolutely need to call out, they also were one of most revolutionary remakes for a reason (making Isak a girl, focusing on women, giving a pov to all the girls, calling out the toxicity of noorhelm and making a season about abusive relationships)
the same people who refused to watch eskam after that are often the same ones who watched wtfock and skamit and constantly make content about it (and by content I mean Sobbe and Nicotino only stuff)
it's so clear that they just wanted an excuse to not watch the wlw season and the anti Noorhelm season and drop eskam so they could ignore the sapphics and the actually good message and have a "good" reason why.
and it's not all about Crisana because even Kietou and Mayla aren't afforded that same grace.
after the whole "it was just a kiss, nothing more" thing people were so quick to compare Kieu My to Tiffany Prigent and William???
and while I do see a lot of love for Kietou I mainly follow skam blogs who's users are other wlw (like you, which btw.. I love your blog) so it's clear they enjoy having this rep.
but the same people who hyped Matteo and Davenzi? hello? were are they? because they weren't there for Fatou's season but suddenly they were there for Ismail's when they found out their LI was a cis skinny white abled boy.
and then they refuse to even watch Lola's season but then will not stop talking about Lucas's season.. I see all of them, and how they claim to care about gay Rep but said rep is cis white skinny abled mlm only.
i could write a whole entire essay about the mistreatment of wlw ships in this fandom for real
like not only do so many people refuse to watch eskam which, fine, after that horribly insensitive selfie irene posted a few months after s2 aired i can't even really blame anyone, but even before that while the season was airing so many people called crisana toxic because of their fight and how cris called joana crazy, and tbh yeah, as someone with bpd i would also criticize that moment and i do think it was a choice(tm) and not one of eskam's finer moments but the same people will still support s*bbe despite robbe calling sander a literal slur?? and also, i mean y'all know i love them, but having matteo shout at david in their reunion was also a choice, but all the mlm evaks get excused and are still perfect soulmates but crisana is toxic, give me a break (though tbf davenzi definitely also often gets more criticism that other white cis mlm evaks but i digress)
same goes for what you mentioned with the "it was just a stupid kiss" comment, idk if it's everyone being way more personally involved when it comes to wlw ships or what but that comment was absolutely unproblematic and just petty teen behavior yet people reacted as if, like r*bbe, kieu my had called fatou a slur, or as if she bullied fatou
i've said it before, i will defend the three wlw seasons no matter what, i have issues with all three and my personal attachment and love are quite different towards each of them but representation matters and it's so sad to see how people willfully ruin these seasons for wlw fans and not support and even trash them more than any other season, it's like wlw seasons need to be flawless to be considered even passable while mlm and other seasons get a pass for literally high-key offensive stuff like slurs, racism, sexism etc.
(and thank you for saying you love my blog 💜)

So i found a couch while head browsing with Alex and i loved it i said it's perfect!! But it's been used since the 1960s. Which is great. I have no problem with that. But in Quarantine... I mean... Brand new feels safer!!.
So Alex redisigined the sofa an put in a custom order.
But then he told me the color... And i said but baby you can't do,that. We got a little lover that thinks the sofa the,same color as him needs some pruning.
Alex changed the color and he said he was torn on this beautiful purple... So he went safe on blue.
So he told me and i said baby you got all this waisted space we need to put shelves cause some the kids love little Nik nax on the shelving. Then some play with them like dolls. He said ok he would build shelves for me and the kids.
Which is better because then the kids can move it and then play on both sides with more people.
So then i said did you arch the arms like I like? He forgot then we were looking and we said if we arch the bottom because he just put a board there to block the space. I said open it and the cats and puppies can,go,under wirh archs with leaves then,we decided to put a life tree at the arms the decor it for safety with diamonds that are pointed. The smaller animal can go play under. A free safe space.
I'm at photo limit so I'll edit this sofa i found.
We were looking for the perfect shape. And this $15,000 1960s sofa with God knows what on it. From God knows where...,was the perfect shape.
So yall brands thinking that we ripping you off. We're not.
So the after i designed it with Alex I then looked at other sofa and chairs for INSPIRATION.
Alex's furniture store is high priced. But its good long lasting eternal quality.
I love it because my grandparents had an Upholstery store named Jennings Upholstery and Repair.
I love designing. I love architecture. To get my hands on software where i can build something perfect and then someone makes it. I LOVE it.
So,we did a design for comfort for both our smaller animals and children and human guests to sit on.
Then I said what you got behind the sofa? Because his room so big it's split.
So he has animals he said bird has a cage and a pooping area.
So i said baby potty train him to just use the toilet. Dogs and cats too
Then we can instead of having a newspaper toilet we can make him a little chair throne of his own miniature size. And Thwn have royalist chairs for all the animals. All different shapes and sizes. Then the shelves to play
So we. Have rhe loving sofa to,cuddle and lay on and relax then a 7x14 space to quality talk and chat and mild loudness. So
On the sofa we can look over and see what's going on and then also have that space to conversation and create. A down stairs working area.
A working play area old world Victorian style.
So it goes in a flow From plain basic boring modern to high rich Victorian.
So the room has its own growth. To inspire. Calm ajd4 destroy enimels with. Peace. In the middle is the tree and comfort so much room for people and so much room to be alone in. Its like a safe zone.
That was my intones of creation. The benefits to be cuddles.
So then the working area smaller areas for cuddling. Like a small sofa or two to be able to sit and combine thoughts while creating and designing. Chairs to think alone in and have social distancing.
Then,chairs owned by animals. So it declares ownership and territory m the rights to be Alive and have things for US. IT INITIATES FREEDOM.
The basic modern is just a TV and bookshelf and bathroom and fire place. Old boring normal stuff
What is normal. What i grew up with and loved. Nothing other than simplicity.
The growth is designed as to what we had to what we earned.
So, I'm,in,this cloud of love and i think everyone should have the fanciest sofas an S chairs I can think of.
So,for $200 dollars starting price. I think we can sell something that he would sell for much more.
So what i would try to get him to do is to drop a zero.
So let's go to the top of our chairs.
Brown chair with tassels he would sell for $9,000
The chair to the right with the crown.. $1500
Next. Funny dog tounge chair $7,000
Small chair with silver ... $2,500
Rose chair-- $3200
Next is actually a dog bed. As a dog bed he would price it at $3,000 as a human chair $18,000
Red chair he would sell for $7,000
Gray sofa $14,750.
So, this is what he does. He would buy the rose chair for me for $800. So then he doubles the price for profit. 1600 then he doubles it for beauty. $3200.
That is how he prices.
How much HE would pay personally based on quality and workmanship. Now if it is for me ... I hate being ripped off so he actually bases those prices lower. Then double doubles. For the 1%
Like the rose chair. The dog chair he said $7000 because he can tell there is something there that is special but can't figure it out. So he said $7k because i know there's something special there.
Although the chair is very basic.. And doesn't look as difficult to make as the 3d rose chair... He would pay $700 so he just added a zero. Simple. Because it's simple to,see its a dog tounge.
So pricing is quite loco in his stores.
But what I'm asking the people if we sold ar lower prices to cover labor and costs. For a temporary time only make 10-20% profit.
Would y'all be interested in the type of old world furniture I have posted?
The ornate type m obviously I would use my skills to make it different than above. But base it on life and love
Like our leaves are heart and oval. For our vines.
So the furniture i would design at no cost. But ask the extra profit.
Now I explained a sofa so you see how much work goes into the design. For free. No cost added for free.
Alex charges $175 to design each piece. He said he would charge $30 only if I help. That is to impute to the computer and then send it to be processed.
Then he charges $800 each time he checks the process. At a minimum of 4 checks.
This is how people get rich and greedy.
But you know alex takes 3/4 of his workload profits and puts it in a savings account for me.
Then 1/4 he keeps to live on
So obviously we are fortunate enough to cut prices for the low income and,the poor
And I,give you guys money so most of you have enough to upgrade your furniture.
If you give us all your old furniture youre replacing we will take off 15% from the 20% profit thus making 5% on the sale.
Then we will take Your old stuff and tear it apart and recycle the materials.
Now we definitely will NOT use it in this factory because of the high quality. We want to keep,it the best furniture you ever had.
But we don't want your old couches in a landfill.
We could donate some to schools and such... What is good can be reused and not recycled. So we would keep the old separate from the new. I promise you that.
Old is landfill gross. In our minds. So then we have to figure out what to do with the "trash" and put it someplace good. But if we use it on furniture we will advertise its recycled goods.
So
Like some couches are structure and workmanship great. We would clean the stuffing and sanitize it and then,sanitize it all. Then use like an outdoor protective cloth to cover it and then it would be a brand new outdoor sofa just like an indoor one. So we would take it apart. Then reassemble and add things. Make it amazing. Then sell it back to you lol to put on your porch.
So we would do a system If you wanted to buy it/keep it... We would actually work with you with 3 designs. You pick and then we remake and then you pay 50% Mark up. Which will be like... Cleaning labor. $50 "undressing" $35. Rebuild and dressing $175 then cloth about $120.
85+295= $380. Then it's half of that So plus $190.
So $570 and that is super expensive to me.
But then if i did something to Give you $3000.
This is like money laundering!!!!!
Then you give it back to us and have better furniture and more comfortable surroundings
Look y'all might be in a mental place where you'd kill someone for $3k to pay the bills!!!
So, this is something we do on the ship...
Definitely after Alex comes and,gets me,and puts me as HIS POW.
So may be before the ship... But..,i have to design too. So.
I want to know is this something you're open to
This is the perfect time to ask because Quarentine in order to,save our Earth. Aliens have to see the difference between humans and them.
That is why we have had to lock you up.
Not because I'm angry I'm a POW without my soulmate. They have to stop fighting us and accept us as who we are.
So your asses are on the couches, and chairs in your houses.
I want you to appreciate everything you've worked for.
But also I want you to know things will get better.
So Alex and i decided that together we can do this. With the furniture.
So yall can daydream and design anything your world can imagine.
And what we will do is open a website where you design. The same exact designs software his factories use.
Trees will get your design and say but hey you can put a drawer under your bed or a shelf or stool you can pull out to sit on with velvet on top you and me can design.
Will stop your design from going into creation. To make it better than you can imagine And something more worthy of your time and space.
So secret places ... Push a button and a door flaps open and twda,secret places just for you
Social distancing.
This way it's more like how i would design.
Also we will make designs.
And then you design for free. 10% off profits.
Now remember we have delivery and pick up which is seperate. But included in the cost of the furniture. But when we discount the profits we don't discount for delivery.
So I cut you down to 5% profit if you to give me your old stuff. Then you design. Then my profit on the furniture is actually -5%
We don't make money. We end up paying 5% of the cost of your items.
Now delivery can Not be cut at all. We got trucks AND gas prices and oil changes and all that So we need a cusp of a safety net for us.
What will happen is we will charge $3 for gas.
Gas prices will go down to 25 cents a gallon. Eventually. Its $1.75 now here in town.
One reason you're on quarantine because gas is lowering and we don't want those long lines at the pump if you fill up now for fuel storage you'll find out next week you got ripped off.
But we will charge $3.00 per gallon of gas to deliver to you. Then labor at $15 per hour to set it up in your home. White glove delivery.
Its currently only for USA because we only have one furniture factory.
Canada is a wait of at least 5 orders going the same area. And an extra $2 dollars per gallon.
Mexico is an extra $4 per gallon.
Now the reason for the gas prices as we labeled is the time it takes to drive to you. Someone is sitting in that truck. We have to pay for hotels. Even if it's a free room in our hotels we have to pay the maid to clean when they leave.
As it now it's averaged we will lose 35% profits.
To pay delivery man and your design and your old furniture discounts.
Losing 35% of a $1,000 bedroom suite. Dresser bed and all.. That is a loss of $350
If one million $1000 orders came in...
We would lose $350,000,000 for our company..
That would cause us to go bankrupt.
I'm suicidal. You can tell.
But behind all that is a cloud of love. Faith. Caring and compassion.
So my question is. Not will you allow us to go bankrupt.
But will you allow me to give you money from my heart that I fought for the death of me to buy furniture from me and Alex?
To make me feel better that you have all the luxury and comforts in your home that you need to make yourselves feel good and safe and want to live alongside me?
You know... That I'm Jesus and i died in one of the most pitiful of ways.
Trusting the wrong people. Aliens. I refused to marry to allow them to control our kingdom and me.
I didn't die for me. I died to learn a lesson.
So consider your homes. Feel your couches and wonder do i want this out side? Think about it.
Daydream. Float on a cloud.
And let me know here if you want an upgrade.
Its my apology to you. For not being the greatest of all and caring too goddam much.
The company has 75 billion in profits. Alex took from the rich and greedy. We will break even
Tree predicts with a loss of profit at an average of 35% ... We will still have banked a total of $842,791,861.39 and This is after we hit worldwide....
We could declare bankruptcy legally a lot of companies do.
I want Your kids rooms. Your living room. Outdoor. The kitchen. Your room. Your parents room. Your hall. Every thing
EVERY THING. The 1% that stole our people will Pay for it.
Because that is what we do. Right a wrong.
I'm suicidal. Alex is angry and he fucks them bitches up. Ripping them off and stealing their money. Legally with their stupid permission.
Ying and yang. He's my soulmate.
He doesn't let me fall into a pit of demons. I take myself there. For you humans that live on my planet. To protect you.
So promise me this. You'll live in a home filled with luxury and good. What you always wanted.
Because I've always wanted Alex.
So he can't and won't do this Furniture Adventure without me.
So you praying and you promising me you'll fix your house up good.
Prayer works in mysterious ways. And we need help. Because the aliens are trying to kill Alex.
So you connect the dots
You want and need a new sofa. Your bed has a broken Spring in the butt. Dude I've had that. Duct tape helps but it don't last long.
You using your energy to create peace,and a wonderful place to,stay in your home.
Will help me and Alex to get together to make it possible for us.
So you will save the Planet
I am offering 1 deal of a life time.
If you want it. Then you want your king and queen to be together.
I have this whole side of America and Queen Elizabeth II her side of the Planet
Hers is 92% settled.
America 74%
But I have to,fight and destroy the entire US government.
And i am alone. And i need my soulmate.
Its so painful.
So a deal of a lifetime. A furniture factory that ripped off the richest people in the world. Want to gift 35% back to you.
The whole world. We will create a factory in New London. Australia. Africa. South America. To save on gas and time.
So your energy will create a protective shield for us to be together as soulmate as DNA4U has described m
It will keep me from being suicidal and Snoop says him too.
You can upload a pic of your favorite piece of furniture. And edit to your desires.
Some of y'all have historical pieces. My couch is so beautiful the way it is at my house I would never
But I need a new bed and tv stand and table next to the tub. My kid needs a bed. I need a whole built in shelf for the toy room. I need a lot
But certain things like my couches my kitchen table and chairs made in 1964.
But i need w more comfortable dining table chair for me for my pain. So i would upload the fabric. Vinyl. To,match the pattern exactly then i would design the chair... Like a baby high chair somewhere for my feet to put a certain type of pressure on my back. A place for cat to lay underneath because cat always does at the computer.
I would have rhe same exact chair for ky computer in,the kitchen with a back side picket organizer for important papers and if i have a toddler things for her to do at,the bottom
A toy and some equipment... For her.
So i would have all of everything i need to make my life effective.
I want a safe that is very ornate and is hidden and is fire and water proof.
I want beautiful library shelves
I have a 4 bedroom house and my kid sleeps in the couch.
So 2 bedroom to play in
Its a trailer. Just a simple double wide.
If someone Didjt want their recycled outdoor couch i would buy on3. I hav3 nice Wal-Mart furniture. But w couch??? Oh luxury.
So y'all think about YOU. I doubled up and bound a safety prayer and a gift for you and me. Of mystery and luxury.
So when you desire. Its a prayer for me to be with my soulmate.
Even more so it is bound to something solid.
And although it's bound to evil it's how we ruptured their piggy bank.
There fore a flag waves on each order EACH desire to buy and make,a change in your home, POW.
That states "you got ripped off suckers and we don't believe aliens should be on Earth and seperate our king and queen for your greed. Get the fuck off our planet now!"
Everytime you want.
Aliens will,feel,their greed and laugh when,they desire. Because they are praying to,be killed.
Double down. Buckle up.
You help me. I'll help you.

2. Disney or Dreamworks: Disney was my entire childhood omg (fun fact: I did a seven minute speech about the history of Disney once for school)
3. Coffee or tea: Probably coffee? But not like, hardcore, straight up COFFEE. It’s gotta have a good couple tons of sugar/creamer/cinnamon and junk.
4. Books or movie: actually I like movies better! Books are great but the visual and audio components of movies are really interesting to me
5. Windows or Mac: I actually know zip about computers and stuff but I’ll go with mac
6. DC or Marvel: Marvel
7. Xbox or PlayStation: no clue tbh
8. Dragon Age or Mass Effect: another thing I know zip about: video games. But dragons are lit though so I’ll go with the first one?

10. Cards or chess: Cards bc I’m too lazy to learn to play chess
11. Chocolate or vanilla: chocolate for SURE
12. Vans or Converse: I will wear my converses to my grave
13. Lavellan, Trevelyan, Cadash, or Adaar: Cadash is the easiest one to spell so let’s go with that
14. Fluff or angst: fluff! I’m too impatient for slow burns. Cut to the sickeningly adorable goopy stuff
15. Beach or forest: have y'all seen those posts with all the weird fish that live at the bottom of the ocean??? I’m staying on land where I can guarantee that all of my appendages remain visible and attached. (Also the noises of forests are so calming and I love being around plants and trees and stuff)

21. Would you rather forever be a little too cold or a little to hot: my school is a literal ice box so by now I’ve been desensitized to cold. Plus, being hot also makes you all sweaty and icky. You can always just pile on more blankets and sweaters if you’re cold!
22. If you could have a superpower, what would it be: healing powers of some sort because there’s no way they could backfire in some sort of Carrie-esque incident. Plus I could help a ton of people.

26. Team Cap or Team Iron Man: I honestly have no opinion on this
27. Fantasy or Sci-Fi: Sci-Fi!! Fantasy is fun and it’s what I grew up on but sci-fi is just so interesting to me!
28. Do you have three or four favorite quotes? If so, what are they:
“Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart.” “I don’t understand it any more than you do, but one thing I’ve learned is that you don’t have to understand things for them to be.” “Music is a world within itself, it’s a language we all understand.” “I would like to be remembered as someone who was not afraid to do what she wanted to do, and as someone who took risks along the way in order to achieve her goals.”
29. YouTube or Netflix: Netflix!
30. Harry Potter or Percy Jackson: Harry Potter for sure!!!
31. When you feel accomplished: when I create something! It doesn’t have to be anything big but to me, the feeling that you’ve made something that no one else can exactly replicate is the best feeling in the world
32. Star Wars or Star Trek: I haven’t actually seen Star Trek!! But I love Star Wars!
33. Paperback books or Hardback books: hardback because I’m so clumsy and messy that all my poor paperbacks get beaten within an inch of their poor, rip-able lives within a month of having them. (yes, i’m a monster. rip.)
34. Handwriting or typing: handwriting! I can’t type for shit!! I do the old “confused elderly man pecking at keyboard like vision-impaired bird” maneuver.
35. Velvet or satin: satin
36. Video games or movies: movies
37. Would you rather be the dragon or own the dragon: own the dragon!
38. Sunrise or sunset: depends on the day of the week! (Aka am I waking up to go to school or waking up to do something fun)
39. What’s your favorite song: currently, it’s Glamorous Indie Rock and Roll by the Killers but I have so many favorite songs throughout the course of a month I can barely keep track
40. Horror Movies yes or no: a resounding HELL NO.
41. Long hair or short hair: short hair because it’s way easier to deal with
42. Opera or theater: theater!
43. Assuming the multiverse theory is true and every story ever told has really happened somewhere, which of the movie/book/tv show/game/etc world’s would you pick to travel to first: the buffyverse if not for the sole purpose of giving Tara Maclay an incredibly well-deserved hug
44. If you had to only eat one thing for the rest of your life what would it be: it’s gonna sound lame af but probably a salad. why? bc you can put whatever the fuck you want on a salad. As long as it includes some form of leaf, it’s a salad. There are no rules. Fruit on some leaves? Salad. Vegetables on lettuce? Salad. Chicken on kale? Motherfckin salad. So you could get all the nutrients you need and have plenty of diversity in your meals! Yes, I have thought about this a bit too much.
45. What instrument would you like to learn: I play the cello already but I’d love to learn piano!
46. Can you art: sort of? I can draw okay but it’s nothing awesome

48. What is one social norm you could do away with: oooooohhhh boooooyyyy. i could write a few dozen essays about this one but a big one is probably heteronormativity and I’ll leave it at that.
49. Fluffy or flat pillows: fluffy, but not too fluffy. There’s a perfect level of fluffiness.
50. What’s your favorite book: A Wrinkle in Time bc it was my childhood and third grade me lowkey had a huge crush on Meg

"how is wtfock more harmful than Eskam's panphobia?" Please, tell me that si sarcasm. Because first of all, the show in itself isn't panphobic, perhaps some of the actors are but again, they are not the same thing. Nora, a cishet girl clearly uneducated about lgbt labels thinks they are the same because they are objectively similar. That's not being panphobic, 8ts being uneducated AND Spanish (this doesnt mean Spain is panphobic, it means that their lgbt history is different and as such, the +
Labels evolve in a different way). But you can call it panphobic all you want, that's fine we are not going to discuss that now. We are talking about how it is more problematic (coming from a wtfock fan). 
1. The blatant biphobia: just like y'all like to talk about Eskam's panphobia, as wtfock fans you should address the utterly biphobic definition that the show gave and was presented as correct by the characters. 
2. The mlm and minor fetishization: "but it is sex Ed!!! Teens have sex". True!!! Some teens do indeed have sex. But was it so hard to present the sex scenes in a respectful way? It's not sex ed, its literal porn (softcore porn, but still). 
3. The misogyny: I do agree they had a rather nice s2 (the bar was in the basement, but still!!! It is in the Top 3) but the way they write most of the female characters makes it clear or makes it seem like they were written by men (or sexist women) in the way they embody some real harmful sexist tropes. 
4. Their writing of poc characters: Yasmina didn't have a surname until what, s3? And how convenient is it that the homophobic guy in the boy squad is poc.
With this I'm not saying that eskam is perfect, but to act as if wtfock wasn't one of the most problematic remakes (it is in my top3, and I'm a wtfock fan) and acting as if it's perfect (like the wtfam always does) is incredibly stupid and harmful to those affected by the writing. And I haven't gotten into the SA accusations because as a victim of it, it was so disgusting and triggering to see the portrayal of it. And tbh, it was scary too. Because those false accusations are keeping others from getting justice. And I'm not getting also into the Chernobyl thing. About it I'm only going to say that it was disgusting to see the way they used it. And it is sad to see how bad and harmful s3 is, because I had so much hopes for it. And they ended up harming people in different communities. But the wtfam acts as if it was perfect and the best. And that's why fans like me would rather not get involved with you. Because the lack of critical thinking and empathy and understanding the wtfam has shown is making fans like me start hating the show and it is ultimately harming a lot of communities
thank you for sharing, i have nothing to add, and i hope this will end this discussion once and for all (if not i will just choose to end it by not answering anymore asks about this topic)
