israel doesnt gaf about its own citizens so it is actually insane to imagne theyre trying to prevent palestinian civilian casualties
Tumblr media
also: israel currently has thousands of Palestinian prisoners in israeli jails and many of them are charged under 'administrative detention' - which means pretty much nothing; it is an empty excuse to hold Palestinians hostage. their families and lawyers dont know where theyve been kept and for what theyve been arrested. many of these prisoners are children.
israel recently killed 2 Palestinians in idf custody while Palestinian resistance released 2 israelis on humanitarian grounds even tho the state of israel refused to receive them

I saw your post about dumb points people make so that Dimitri and the Kingdom come off as worse and to justify Edelgard invasion and I was wondering if you have heard the one about how people try to use Duscur amd Sreng as a excise?
Like they claim that the Kingdom bad treatment of both nations makes them morally evil and that they deserve to be wiped out and conquered in return or that Dimitri has no actual desire to free Duscur and is just using them.
But they always conveniently forgot that the Empire has done the same thing to Brigid and Dagda in the past or even the fact that Edelgard is openly using Brigid
Imo that also explains why Petra completely falls flat as a character, because we have the situation where she is Adrestia's hostage, and could really bring something to the table about imperialism, power (in)balance and...
We have Nopes, where, iirc, Pat tried to lolcalise the part where she wonders why Faerghus used to see Duscur as something else than a land to be conquered before the Tragedy, when Adrestia always set its sights on Brigid - but bar that?
In this situation - a character being a literal hostage of another - I would have expected more than 5 throw away lines and the insulting (Petra is a princess, not the daughter of a fisherman, you really want me to believe she never learnt the language of the juggernaut trying to invade every saturday? Apparently Brigid people know how to speak Fodlanese, if her paralogue is any indication!) trope of "doesn't know the language".
(and yet it speaks volumes about how Adrestia treated her, even if it's not realistic : the child under house Goneril's "good care" is more fluent than her even if he has difficulties to pronounce Mercie's name, whereas the commoner who was saved and cared for by the prince is perfectly fluent in both languages, and even taught him some Duscurian in return!)
But ranting about Petra will take another post altogether, especially how she is perceived in certain, hm, corners of the fandom.
Let's say people living in said corner of the fandom embraced their favourite png's rhetoric, and the famous "Adrestian double standard" even in their real life interactions (with other fans). And it when it doesn't apply, they just create it.
I remember early on after the first Nopes leaks how people tried to piece out (10k years of lore!!) how Sreng and Faerghus's borders came to be, and some "devoted fans" immediately jumped on the Faerghus BaD wagon.
But conveniently ignored Wilhelm the Sailor, writing how he utterly failed his campaign to invade Dagda, off handedly mentions how Brigid people are "savages" and prefers to die there than to face the Emperor of the time who's going to be very pissed that he didn't manage to invade Dagda.
It's more or less (10k years of lore I'm telling you!) explained Sreng and Faerghus/Gautier fight over ressources, but why the fuck Adrestia wants to "adrestianise" Brigid and Dagda? For ressources or just to spread the might and glory of Emperor Ionius III ?
Saying Dimitri doesn't want reparations for Duscur and to cleanse Duscur's name is like saying Rhea's ears are round - you have a better chance to win an argument against a potted plant than against some people who aren't even talking about the game.

Hey!
New fan here!! Absolutely love your blog!! A big fan of the way you have sorted all of the tv shows and tropes!! It makes it soooo easy to find em!! I was wondering if you could possibly recommend any whumpy tv shows or fics with hostage, gunpoint/knifepoint whumps?? I love Hudson and Rex, Republic of Doyle that kind of shows. And cant forget Magnum PI!!
Also, if you havent watched it, I highly, highly recommend Republic of Doyle. Its just sooooo good!!
Hi! Welcome!! Happy to have you here! And thanks! I work hard to keep everything nice and organized and somewhat easy to search. I'm so glad it's been useful!
Whump recs with hostage/held at gun or knifepoint tropes? Oh you bet. Here ya go:
Happens all the time Hawaii Five-0 and The Mentalist. Stargate SG-1, NCIS, Graceland, Magnum P.I. reboot, and Burn Notice all have quite a few instances as well and are great shows.
Also take a look through my tags for #held hostage, #hostage, #held at gunpoint, #gunpoint, and #held at knifepoint for more examples.
Enjoy! And yeah I really need to watch Republic of Doyle. It's been on my list for ages and I haven't gotten around to it yet.

kittilumpo said: Planet 51 (2009) starring Justin Long and Dwane The Rock Johnson
Certainly a variation on this theme although aliens would not be bound as signatories to the OST. Also this
green extraterrestrials live peacefully in a society reminiscent of the United States during the 1950s
fills me with disgust. Could they not put any effort in whatsoever

quick apology
[ // sorry to everyone I have slightly longer threads with; I keep getting brain fog and random chronic illness related pains and it's making it hard to write properly. my head feels full of cotton, I think it's because of the pollen triggering my symptoms or whatever.
just wanted to give everyone a heads up because I really don't want anyone thinking I'm ignoring them or I've forgotten about anyone. I have a whole bunch of things saved in my drafts that I need to get on, but the words are getting a bit jumbled in my head.
i just really didn't want anyone to think i was avoiding them if you see me posting memes or posting other replies before yours. sometimes i want to focus on making a longer reply look pretty so it takes longer to get on it, but it doesn't mean i'm ignoring you, it just means i really liked your reply and felt like you deserved a quality response.
anyway sorry for the delay. i'll delete this when i'm less out of it. thank you so much for being patient with me! ]

Rhea was an amazing villain in CF. She finally wasn't a hapless uwu victim waiting to be rescued, she took charge, kicked ass, showed her determination to take back control by burning a city down while she was in it, and went down fighting without any "mommy are you there?" nonsense like in SS. Also Cheremy turned in an epic performance showing all the rage and tragedy as her millenia of work collapsed in on itself. 10/10 female villain with agency, would experience again.
I'd say antagonist, rather than villain, but sure, the lack of uwu is surprising!
There's no "sad uwu" with sad music and violins and "choices" ending with a very meaningful "i wanted to walk with u" to a person she might only have talked to 3 times in the past 6 years!
CF!Rhea shows her determination, in a twisted way, as she loses more and more control and relieves her PTSD, doing everything she can to survive and failing - failing to survive (well duh she's killed), failing to reunite with her mother, failing to live with humans, etc etc.
Seeing her lose more and more and her ultimate breakdown when Flayn'n'Seteth is really something - I have already made my point known about the different VA directions - and while Cherami Leigh's anger is really well conveyed - Inoue's performance conveys how you litteraly broke her! There's anger yes, but also despair and sadness.
She wants to reunite with her mother, even at the end - that's all she wants, and it's Inoue's peak performance between anger, anguish and despair that really sells Rhea as a character.
I think I felt as bad when this was over as that moment in ToX1 where you defeat Muzét on Jude's route, and she begs Maxwell to help her, only for him to, uh, don't do a thing. Then she goes bananas, and the ultimate line to Gaius where she replies with anger to his "well think by yourself" with her own "I don't know how" is just - that awesome. It's the perfect blend of off-putting, to make you understand that this character is more than just angry, but this character is feeling "feelings" (duh!) and they're shovered in your face, and sometimes, those feelings are uncomfortable and you can't ignore them.
In ToX1, imo, we're supposed to think that yes, while Muzét is an ass a bit too happy to be a perfect tool, the second she is abandonned she's a complete mess - and why the old fart abandonned her? Well...
Ditto for Rhea - her actions grow and grow more desperate, culminating with Bernie's Firdhiad adventure - but that anger and pain? They can't be ignored.
Alas, where ToX1 ends Muzét's breakdown with Milla accepting to make a place for her by her side (as unsatisfying as it is!), CF ends with...
Well, nothing.
But back to your post (I disgress too much lol) :
Yep, CF!Rhea isn't brainwashed, lobotomised, randomly "berserk" or anything, nope. Now, we can have other discussions about a genocide victim being hunted again and forced to relieve her PTSD until she breaks down.
But for a female character with agency, who decides how she will go down and is fully on board with her own plans, I think Azure Moon's Edelgard takes the cake.
She will meet Dimitri and her enemies in her palace, even resort to transform in her Hegemon Husk form if it means killing them to make her ideal world see fruition. No uwu, no crest stones used as poke balls, nope, nothing. It's only her, her ideals and her vision of the world.

I honestly don't give a shit about Carlos and I have a distaste for him overall, because of his associated with right wing politics family and they just have overall bad vibes, like they're hunters, spanish, etc. Saying that, I don't understand why so many are angry at ferrari for asking to review his penalty, even if it doesn't change anything, I don't think this will hurt any other part of ferrari, like it's not like "focusing" on this means they're not focusing on other stuff, they have enough people and money. low key think a lot of people are just upset because if he gets the points he will be even further on front of charles on the chanpionship. and I get it, because I hate seeing him on front when he doesn't deserve and charles should be on front if it wasn't for that dnf/penalty, but idk complaining about reviewing it's not gonna change that and it just makes charles fans look jealous. I'm half preparing myself for a 2021 repetition because charles lack of luck seems worse this year and it doesn't seem like the car can win races, so it will be harder for him to pass Carlos.
I think the problem is it's not a given that he'll get those points back. From the articles I've seen it sounds like the FIA could bin their appeal if they find their argumentation/evidence presented warrants re-opening the case. The way Fred spoke about the case it feels like the point is more about "reopening the discussion" rather than them being confident they'll get those points back. As others have pointed out, it's also possible that the FIA will look at their arguments re: penalty inconsistencies and penalise Pierre and/or Logan, while Carlos's own penalty will still stand.
As someone on Twitter put it, the whole thing is a really contested deserved penalty case. At the end of the day Carlos was careless on the restart and hit Alonso. He was found to be at fault for the move. Even if the other two, or at least one of the other drivers, also gets a penalty, that doesn't mean Carlos's should or will be removed, necessarily.
The season is long and I'm sure Charles will have plenty of chances to catch up, closing the gap to Carlos at least, if Ferrari doesn't manage to match Aston/Merc even with the upgrades. I'm not really holding my breath for any race wins - hell, with the state they're currently in and looking at their closest competitors the lowest step of the podium would already be a massive success, which 🙃 But it's totally possible for him to consistently rack up points.
