The details of how Charlie got Section 8 housing will haunt me forever.

He obviously does qualify and, were he properly diagnosed, could potentially qualify for Section 811 instead. The question is how he got the government to cooperate. That would have been a bonkers amount of paperwork that he absolutely could not fill out by himself, since he can't read that well. So who helped him?

I really like 'the gang turns black', not only its funny in new ways, but it's one of the episodes with the most shocking (and still realistic) final moments, but still quirky and fun, that gives me chills. It gave me a pretty graphic (and still needed for a non-north american) of systemic racism and police brutality and what it's like to be a poc living in north america -and that I definitely don't want to live over there.

I also like that they tried to correct the racism of the gang, even if it gets to be literal MAGIC to do that (which is not only funny but on character); it's not a coincidence that it's the same season that mac comes out. I think rcg realized, as creators, that the racist and homophobic aspect of the characters was getting old and uncomfortable to watch.  even when they learn nothing at the end of the episode and repeat racist patterns, in a meta way the creators gave a candid look, without abandoning the genre and comedic aspects. I think that makes it even more chilling, at least for me.

also, i love musical episodes.

Irish radio had a section today called “what are the rules” and kept playing clips of the song from The Gang Turns Black it was truly something

I honestly do think that the always sunny musical episode is a perfect musical episode on level with Buffy because it creates a scenario that works for the characters. Much like how in buffy they are singing because of the effects of a demon (something that drives so many of Buffy's zany goofy episodes) it makes perfect sense to have the cast of always sunny start singing, get annoyed about it, and try to analyze why this is happening from a referential standpoint. Plus as much as I hate "it was all a dream" it is so always sunny to make them learn a lesson and then reveal that it was just a fantasy of someone who hates them wanting them to learn a lesson

i have some more bc now i’m curious about your mysterious least favorite and also i’m enjoying your analyses :)

the gang turns black, charlie has cancer (for the mac/carmen plot line), a lot of charlie gets crippled, the gang gives back, sweet dee’s dating a r person (love the rock band storyline tho), thundergun express

it’s hard for me to say i dislike episodes entirely bc there are always parts i like but yeah as a whole i would say these are in my bottom 20

The Gang Turns Black: disagree. I was shocked to learn this one was so hated honestly. I love musical episodes, and I think all their singing is perfectly fine (I don’t know why people say they sound bad??) and the songs are mostly funny and catchy. And I know people think the Quantum Leap thing is stupid but I like it. I like the idea that the gang are so racist it would take a literal magical scenario for them to learn how to be better. I like that the final message of the episode is the reality of systemic racism and police brutality, but I get that’s heavy for a sunny episode and some people find it tactless and I understand completely if anyone feels that way.

Charlie Has Cancer: agree. Honestly I’ve seen this episode so few times specifically because of that plot line. But because I’ve seen it so few times I barely remember it and so don’t have a big rant prepared. But my biggest take away is—it’s one thing to show the characters being transphobic, because they’re horrible people that’s just what the show is, but when the camera is transphobic that’s just the writers thinking the idea of a trans woman having a penis is funny and expecting the audience to find it funny too. Awful. Honestly maybe this one is my least favorite I’ve just seen it so few times and so long ago it’s hard to even remember for me. I don’t even remember the Charlie plot at all or what Dee was doing if anything.

Charlie Gets Crippled: I think agree depending on what you mean by “a lot of”. The stuff about being in a wheelchair getting them free strippers is stupid and based on the false idea that life is somehow easier for disabled people because of pity (wrong and bad). And pretending to be disabled to get attention does make sense for the characters to think of and again it’d be one thing for the characters to be proven wrong but the episode plays it like they’re right and being disabled does get you adoration which uh. If you’ve ever actually been in public with an assistance device you know how wrong that is. But I like the Dennis and Dee stuff and of course our dear friend Mr Tibbs (RIP). I love the opening where Dennis runs Charlie over in his haste to flee from his shitty dad. I love that Frank is introduced as being “manically depressed” for most of his life—it’s a good way to set up the way he acts throughout the rest of the show. But yeah a lot of bad with the good. I don’t watch it often.

The Gang Gives Back: disagree! I love this episode! The gang are so horrible I think there’s a lot of humor in pairing them up with kids (also why I love Frank Reynolds’ Little Beauties). I love Mac and Dee competing to be head coach and I love the horrible dangerous things they tell the kids to do. I love that Frank “trying to bond” with Dennis turns out to be a ruse for Frank’s gambling, something Dennis doesn’t at all seem surprised by, which says so much about Dennis and Dee’s childhood without even directly mentioning it. I even think Charlie using AA to flirt with The Waitress while she’s only interested in Dennis is funny. And it’s hilarious that Frank chastises Dennis for sleeping with The Waitress when he knew Charlie likes her when Frank did literally the exact same thing lol. Just a very funny one for me I think all the character dynamic are really good and the kids are funny.

Sweet Dee’s Dating a: Agree! You found my least favorite episode! Congratulations! I hate it so much even the band parts and Dennis’ slutty little outfit don’t save it for me, which trust me is saying a lot about how bad the rest of the episode is. It’s just. Ugh. Similar issue as the others where it’s one thing for the characters to be ableist, but the narrative itself is ableist too. And it’s not even funny like. Even the band parts aren’t funny beyond their outfits to me. Yeah the scene of Dennis helping Charlie when he’s upset is cute but even that doesn’t save it for me. It’s hard for me to even think about this episode without my blood pressure rising. It’s both boring and offensive! Worst combo. I’ve watched this one as few times as I’ve watch Charlie has Cancer but this one sticks in my mind more in a bad way which is why I say it’s worse for me but who knows maybe if I rewatched both I’d feel differently. But I don’t want to lol.

Thundergun Express: disagree. This one’s another really funny one to me. The whole “we’ll come back for youuuuu” running gag is great to me every time, I love Frank’s awful boat tour where he just rambles about his chaotic life, I love that they’re all so excited for the dong, I love Mac stealing a motorcycle, failing to drive it, and abandoning it in the middle of the street, I love the sewer (yeah, that’s shit in my hair) and I think Frank calling in a bomb threat because he’s so upset he didn’t make it is a fantastic ending. Dennis’ plot is pretty weak but that’s my only criticism, the rest makes me laugh and there’s a lot of great quotable lines from this one.

something about Hatchetfield is so Hadestown coded. something about how it's a sad tale, but we sing it anyway. as if it will turn out this time. (i'll find you in the next timeline). something about how not everyone can make it out, and those that do don't make it out unchanged. something about love that was doomed from the start (wait for me? i will.) (emma, im sorry, you lost) (i'd have to let you go). something about how the scenery changes, but the stories are the same. something about it was a world of gods and men (there are monsters and there are men).

#i am EMOTIONAL tonight gang. i am SAD. #there's no like one-to-one way to jam the narratives of hatchetfield and hadestown together #but the themes man. tgwdlm and orpheus' music. black friday and hades' capitalism. npmd and orpheus and eurydice's doomed love #remember when tgwldlm first came out and we were theorising that the show was all a loop? that they were all infected from the beginning? #someone's got to tell the tale. whether or not it turns out well #originals #hatchetverse #hatchetfield #hatchetfield musicals #hatchetfield series #hatchetfield universe #the guy who didn't like musicals #tgwdlm #black friday starkid #nerdy prudes must die #npmd #hadestown #hadestown musical #hatchetfield meta

[a-nice-egg-offering]

Sorry I’m so emotional over the fact the gang canonically have movie nights where they cuddle up in blankets. Sometimes they can be so soft

#iasip #at the end of squashes beef when Charlie invites them back to his to watch a movie cuddled up in blankets #his apartment is so tiny are they all piling up on the fouton?? I am unwell #and in the gang turns black Dee sat at macs feet I love to see them getting along💔

this scene hits different right after rei’s route 🥲

#slow damage #i’m sorry baby i’ve turned over to the dark side!! #lol ok but reading a bit more of this chapter i get it now #madarame is essentially that toxic ex you replaced his contact name with a gravestone emoji on your phone #who randomly texts you ‘wyd’ when you’re at your most vulnerable #but like….to the extreme lmaooooo #i was so engrossed in this dynamic the first little interrogation sequence surprised me #i was like oh shit that’s right i’m playing a game lmaooooo! #madarame has towa so wrapped up around his finger (and his di—) that i didn’t even know we could influence the guy’s emotions at all lololol #also blond towa??? blond towa?????????? BLOND TOWA??????????????? #blond towa w both eyes intact jumpscared me lmaoooo #i’m here thinking towa’s a natural brunette w blond tips but is it really he’s a natural blond?? #nah that makes no sense why would he waste his time dyeing his hair black lol he probably colored it blond while he was in the gang #anyway that caught me off guard #michi yaps

[ohtobearandomftblog]

you’re right about the not caring about canon anymore because 100 yrs quest fucking SUCKS man it’s just trash… like they’ve destroyed 90% of the good characters making them soooo OOC just to fit them into the str8 ships it makes me so mad especially because this manga was supposed to be about friendship but what ppl ONLY care about is romance and it’s not even good

i saw they royally fucked up natsu. somethin bout him not knowing what a library is even tho the first quest he and lucy go on is to break into duke everlue's LIBRARY. and that one ova and ending where natsu is in the fairy tail LIBRARY.

also something something laxus flirting with the fucking enemy something something laxus giving his COAT to the fucking ENEMY something something laxus KNEELING for the ENEMY bc her bullshit ass magic makes NO SENSE. look i know theyre tryina make laxus more "likable" or some bullshit so itll make sense when he gets with mirajane (bc lets face it its gonna be mira not cana or lisanna or whoever else unless hes getting with that eNEMY) but like. we've known he respects women. we know hes grown since the battle of ft. you dont need to show that hes a sub gentleman who'll kneel to more powerful women so itll make more sense when he gets with the she-devil. like at this point im wanting to boost laxus/freed art and fics even tho i really dont care for that ship. controversial opinion ik

my hyperfixations/special interests/somethin like that have rotated from one comfort media (ft) to another and that other is currently dbz so 1 thats why this has been even less active than before and 2

in dragon ball super they fucked up goku. apparently bitch doesnt know what a kiss is. HE HAS TWO KIDS. what the FUCK are you on about. i mean im 70% sure in db he didnt know what marriage was and thought it was food or somethin when chichi made him promise to marry her when they both grew up. but like. he was maybe 15, living in the wilderness, his grandpa having died some years ago, getting no education. THAT made sense. him not knowing what a kiss is??? I FEEL LIKE WE'VE SEEN HIM KISS HIS WIFE BEFORE. ON SCREEN. WHAT THE FUCK.

it looks like manga authors are in the era of beating more money out of their completed series to the point that theyre just beating a corpse now. theyre tryina squeeze more money and attention outta shit that was still pretty big without new "canon" content coming out.

#ohtobe talks #ohtobe asks #shonens have taken a turn for the worse. these two. boruto. black clover. whatever the fucks happening with bnha #like ive debated on reading 100yq JUST so i can rewrite it better as a fic #just gotta get through the ft anime... bc i am not suffering through the terrible manga art of the first some odd volumes #plus the anime only yet apparently canon to manga too arc #just gotta get past the... *shivers*.... /jiggle butt gang/ #i took a massive break from ft tbh bc dbz was slowly draggin me back in an then i learned abou the dbs movie with piccolo and gohan as mcs #which resulted in me writing a 12k+ one shot in a month and has still got me in a chokehold sdkljfk #ft 100yq #thats all this gets. it dont deserve more.

Also, not to draw comparisons between a masterpiece and a crack show, but the dreamlike scene of Nucky being shown the television in "Eldorado" by a Gillian-coded woman as a sign of a future-of-out-reach is how you properly draw a story to a close and comment on its medium.

#how cool would it have been to have the Riverdale gang receive their memories via comic pages? #or have THIS be the black-and-white episode and things turn color as they remember watching on this 'of the future' color TV #well one more week for you guys to hear my Riverdale ramblings #what can I say? they ended or canceled all my other shows so I have nothing else to grumble about #I will say that redeeming Betty's mom in the penultimate episode is almost as bad as redeeming Ryan's dad in the penultimate episode #man I hated that sublot #Boardwalk Empire #Riverdale
