@mid--20scrisis - Tumblr Blog

has anyone noticed that after the porn ban of 2018 tumblr was essentially killed from the mainstream and everyone flocked to other social media sites like twitter and meta. then those sites got enshittified to where twitter became Nazi Central and meta sites had an entire meme around getting “zucced” aka mark zuckerberg himself would ban you for saying a no-no word like fuck. and then the mainstream shifted to tiktok where infamous toddlerspeak sentences like “he got unalived by a pew pew” were born because if you once again say a no-no word like kill or gun or any other word that isn’t corporate i mean kid friendly then the algorithm will bury your post into the ground. and somehow we’ve come full circle and tumblr is now the most bearable social media site because although we can’t have female presenting nipples we can at least talk to each other like adults. has anyone noticed that at all or is it just me and the flaming skull

i’m not a celebrity worshipper so when i saw negative fans’ reactions towards the characters played by rebecca ferguson, tim roth & barry keoghan got rebuked by other fans of the franchise saying “say whatever you want but cillian murphy personally wanted them for the film”; all i could think of was “well maybe he should let the casting director does their jobs instead of having his dream cast”

but i guess he had that privilege to do so seeing that he co-produced the show + with that script he could do whatever he wanted i guess 😬

#peaky blinders #i am in the minority that doesn’t think rebecca’s character has sexual chemistry with tommy lol #i’m sorry i don’t remember her character’s name #zelda’s twin sister #nothing personal though

Your family were healers. Yeah... a long time ago. Came back when I put my head in a noose. It's like putting your head through a window and seeing the whole world. [...] But I didn't just put my head through that window. I climbed through it. First, I thought it was madness... but no.

TOMMY SHELBY in PEAKY BLINDERS + text from POLLY GRAY

interesting observation from pb film:

- tommy didn’t seem to care about charlie as much as i expected he would (think season 3) considering that he’s his son with grace (the love of his life)

- loved & cared so much about ruby, his daughter with lizzie (whom he seemed to forget the existence of throughout the film)

it’s very difficult for me to accept there was no mention of lizzie AT ALL in the film from ANY of the characters, not even ada who i presumed got updates on charlie from lizzie

it is very very strange writing to me. i wasn’t even asking for his public declaration of love, i just wanted some acknowledgment that she used to be someone present in his life. it’s as if she didn’t exist at all.. if i didn’t watch the series beforehand, i would assume ruby was his daughter with grace with the way they framed this whole thing 😭

i think it would be very interesting if the route they will take with pb sequel/spinoff with new generation of shelby would revolve around charles (the version who returned from WWII) vs duke. it wouldn’t be weird if lizzie (the character) would return as well 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↔️

personally i think natasha o’keeffe has moved on from the role. i love her but i don’t think she wants anything to do with PB anymore.

in the meantime, it is very likely for the franchise aka SK to publish tommy’s book as an extension of the film, which would also clearly be a merch

My toxic fandom take is that I think that it's awful how much we can talk to creators and get answers from them word of god style. We should be out here in a godless place rooting for scraps of lore in the media like truffle pigs out in the fields

i think it's beautiful that cats eat you if you die in your apartment and nobody finds you for a while. i don't know why it's used as anti-kitty cat propaganda as if eating you means they don't love u. if i died and no one found me for a while i would want my kitty cat to eat me bc i love her so much and i don't want her to starve. it's not her fault i'm too dead to give her her fancy feasts. she's going thru something scary ok. i don't know a single cat owner who doesn't feel the same way

you can feel the moment in a tv show when a woman who was an independent character suddenly becomes a love interest. its like a shackle locking onto her ankle.
