Looking at the poll results...it's pretty sad that the most hated/disliked Pirate101 worlds are the beginning ones. It pains me to hear ppl quit when playing through Monquista or Cool Ranch when the game DEFINITELY picks up later on. (Aquila is a pain, but Valencia is worth getting to again, imo)
I implore you guys, PLEASEEEE keep playing, Cool Ranch is awful but it feels good when you finally get out of it, I promise

the thing about “cynical” superhero stories is that the reason why Invincible works but The Boys doesn’t is that no matter how much shit sucked or how horrible things became, Invincible was still a hopeful story and The Boys is simply not. superhero stories are entirely built on being hopeful so any subversion of the genre still needs to maintain that otherwise it just flops, it doesn't even work as a criticism because a criticism needs to actually Say Something and not just display the utter loathing for the very genre of story its trying to tell. Watchmen has a perpetual spiral downwards as a narrative but never once is there any idea that things will forever be nothing but suffering and it serves as a significantly better criticism of superheroes as a genre

i feel like “uptown funk” is to future historians what shakespeare’s “hamlet” is to us and the best part about this is that “uptown funk” makes an absolutely BANGER pair with “hamlet”

when will said it was "strange knowing who it was this whole time" and "he's hurt, he's hurting, but he's still alive" was he not talking about henry? am i insane? did i misinterpret that scene? why are we acting like will is connected to anyone other than henry bro what is Happening 😭
that was henry that shaped the mind flayer into that spider-like form and it was henry that used it to possess will and it was henry's thoughts that will was experiencing against his will and it's henry that he's still feeling because the connection/"vecna's curse" hasn't been broken. they physically extracted the mind flayer from will's body, yes, but his connection to henry was never broken. henry can't exercise complete and total control over people without the mind flayer's power, which is why will has free will over his body but his mind remains connected to henry.
the characters, and by extension the viewers, thought it was the mind flayer behind everything, because they didn't know what season four revealed to us.
henry wanted to control will's mind and body—a complete and entire violation of everything will is. that was Not the mind flayer, and they tell us that more than once. with all love and respect what are some of you on about because you're starting to make me feel like my memory is genuinely broken or something lmao like i thought.... the big reveal was that it's always been henry? they literally say that? eleven, henry, and will all confirm it? the mind flayer was not a separate entity acting alone... thus will has beef with henry most of all because henry's violation of his mind and body is still ongoing... Where Are You Guys Getting Your Information From 😭 hELP
will's rape—because that's what possession is, he never consented to having his mind and body controlled by anyone else—is an important part of stranger things; both to the general plot and will's character. to say that will only has beef with the mind flayer and not henry is reducing what henry did to him and reassigning blame that very much falls on henry's shoulders. henry was controlling the mind flayer and henry is the one still in will's mind. henry used the mind flayer to have control over will. henry and will are connected. the show literally tells us that over and over again. when you decide to needlessly reassign blame, not only are you misunderstanding and misconstruing the plot, but you're also... not understanding what happened to will at all. like, what really happened to him and how that's used in the show.
henry very likely was the one that kidnapped will. henry is the one that will has a psychic connection to. henry is the one that raped will / possessed him if you prefer that term instead and used the mind flayer to do it. henry is the one that will still knows like the back of his hand, because henry is the one that's still in his head. it's not the mind flayer. it's henry. please stop saying that will doesn't have more than enough reason to want to kill his ass. please!!!

It'd sure have been fucking nice if after the Avengers Infinity comic appearance Shroud just became Jessica's cool weird guy best friend especially considering they are historically friends instead of going through once more the Ableism Vortex but I guess we can’t get actual nice things ever huh

fr tho why did badlands rumble include a fake out vash death when we all know there's literally no way he would actually die. besides the general he's the protagonist thing if it's supposed to take place at some point within the anime/manga timeline, where we know he survives, it's such a ??? choice

Listen when i say petsites tend to have racism and cultural appropriation issues know that I'm not making up guys to be mad at this shit happens literally all of the time.
Literally one time i saw that a petsite i just joined had a kickstarter to keep the site up and running and they introduced new creatures amd i was like "oh fuck yes dinosaurs!" And then i scroll down and see. That they named one of the new creatures as a w*ndigo and I'm like hm (<- having flashbacks to all the tumblr discourse/informative posts abt this) and then i look in the comments and fucking. Ok so someone is like "hey isn't this cultural appropriation/offensive to use? Did you contact the appropriate tribe about how to portray this?" And the head mfer literally says "oh yeah we contacted a tribe and we're waiting to hear back. But doing some more research has led me to think i should change it's name" LIKE WHY DIDN'T YOU WAIT..... WHY DID YOU DO RESEARCH AFTER YOU DECIDED IT'S NAME.... HELLO???? THE FUCK'S WRONG WITH YOU
