for real though i really don't get why - okay, let me rephrase that. i entirely understand why, but don't particularly like how in some swiftie spaces it's seemingly taboo to acknowledge that taylor might have motivations beyond pure self expression in how she writes about her life & relationships. like she's not a teenage girl sitting in her bedroom wistfully penning songs about her high school crushes anymore, she's a grown woman and a billion dollar marketing machine, not to mention a self proclaimed "mastermind". acting like she is just trying to write songs about her life 🥺🎀 when she makes certain creative or promotional decisions is frankly doing a disservice to her intelligence and business acumen. she knows what she's doing lol and just as it's okay to acknowledge that i think it's also okay to not particularly enjoy her increasingly heavy pandering towards fans who are desperate to pick up every little easter egg and piece together every last bit of Taylor Swift Lore (because yes, she knows she's doing that too, let's be real she's not going to put "lover" on a denial playlist with zero awareness of the frenzy that's going to stir up among her fans)

Holding a phaser tactical John Wick Center Axis Relock-style is one of many things about modern Star Trek that just looks so fucking uncanny

Honestly another thing that annoys me about Gabe's death in the show is that the downplayed nature of the abuse makes his fate, for lack of a better word, inappropriate. Gabe being an explicitly physically and emotionally abusive bastard was what warranted him dying in the book. Yes, he is still financially abusive in the show, but he's more of a pathetic slob than a monster. Contemptable, sure, but hardly worth killing. At best, his death is a tasteless gag. At worst, it's disproportionate retribution.
fr like. after the first episode i was like well what the hell are they gonna do at the end of the series? from episode one it was always gonna be either don’t kill off the loser and commit to erasing a woman and her child’s story of surviving abuse, or do kill off the loser and have it be a completely unjustified killing (not only bc of the reduced abuse but bc they outright state sally divorced him!! book sally had no other alternative divorce financially was Not on the table!!). he might have been killed by his own hand in-universe, but the writers made that call, purposefully, to condemn his actions so severely they warrant death. i’ve seen people who don’t even believe in his death was warranted in the books just out of the principle all killing is wrong—my opinion is firstly it’s fiction but secondly it sends a pretty clear fucking message that you don’t get to be an abusive fuck and walk away scott-free. self-defense and justice have a right to serve consequences, and sometimes those consequences are your wife with righteous blood lust and a desperate need for education funds
