A Star Is Born

I love Vincent x Thomas with my heart and soul because with all that forbidden love legit all they want is vanilla marital sex. They are not angsty, no hate, just romantic love.

They are the older couple in the house next door. You look out the window to the beautiful garden they have grown having been in the neighborhood for decades. You ask them how they met, and they gush talking how they found each other at a time they both felt lost and it felt like a second chance. They are both retired. They are active participants in the community. They go to church every Sunday. Their sons and daughters visit every other week, the yard filled with noise of their grandchildren playing. They are that soft quiet love that make people wish they grow old together for.

But he is the Pope and he is the Dean.

Psst, the script for the deleted Conclave scenes just leaked 🙌

imo kai (who i think was probably bi and was definitely dating jennifer) wanted to be with mickey because she had just witnessed her partner die gruesomely and was struggling with the concept of mortality for herself & her loved ones, which she’d never really faced before.

she wanted mickey because he would always be reprinted and she wouldn’t have to suffer the pain of losing him forever. she would be ‘safe’ from facing that grief and pain again because mickey can’t die permanently, as she sees it.

also, he’s a sweet guy.

One of the things that confused me about Mickey 17 was Kai's character cause what

I thought the barebones of her character was interesting, a harsh and steadfast individual, who is compassionate but not actually easy to get close to, and how is unwaveringly loyal to the system but does not care for the leader of it (honestly she's exactly the type of character I like)

And then she tried to jump on Mickey, which was especially confusing cause isn't she a lesbian

Like I genuinely thought that the dinner scene were they continually called her and Jennifer friends was meant to show how little the Marshall's cared or understood the people they ruled because it really seemed like they were trying to say that she and Jennifer were more than friends and Kenneth who hadn't even got Jennifer's name right or Yifa who only cares about image and not at all about people, just didn't care enough to know or even consider that they were more than friends

And sure, she clearly cared about how Mickey was being mistreated but I thought that was because she was a good person

So to go from the dinner scene to her trying to jump Mickey was whiplash

And then the last scene we see her in was one where a different female character was draping themselves all over her

So I'm just confused

And you can argue that Kai is bi, entirely possible, but then why Mickey, because if she is bi and was dating Jennifer than why did she try and jump Mickey after the dinner party where she is clearly still upset about her girlfriend's death, and once again why Mickey, what about Mickey is attractive to her

But then if she's not bi and she and Jennifer are just friends, what's with the lesbian subtext, why include it, at all

I'm just confused

What was the point of it all

The Character Design of Hazbin Hotel

The output of the animation studio Spindle Horse has rapidly gone from the personal OC playspace of an enthusiastic animator to a merchandise-funded animation empire, attracting attention and financing from A24 and Amazon, besides doing millions and millions of views on YouTube.

Hazbin Hotel, the animated musical series that was picked up by Amazon Prime and which probably introduced a lot of people to the sensibilities of the studio's output, is in my opinion kind of a 7/10 sort of show, but it has attracted a fanbase that operates on K-pop stan levels of intensity. This is usually a pretty good sign that something interesting is going on artistically, so... let's have a look, I guess?

“it is the parents responsibility to keep their children away from media that contains any vulgar/mature content and we shouldnt blame the media creators for it” and “hazbin hotel has writing that specifically appeals to fandom teenagers” are two opinions that i feel like can coexist

thinking about how victor was so horrified and disgusted by his creation because when he animated it, it didn’t instantly heal itself. that’s why the creature was so repugnant to him—he was mismatched moving parts, lacerations sewn shut. when victor created something, the open wound of his mother’s death didn’t instantly heal itself.

all the world will be your enemy, prince with a thousand enemies

Just admiring how well these Gatsby postcards go together 💛
