Having rewatched Pirates of the Carribean several times, I have noticed something interesting. Will Turner is often the only survivor of massive shipwrecks, like the one that killed his mother or the one with the kraken. Other times even when hes alone he survives drowning in ways he really has no right to, like the destruction of the Interceptor. He just often conveniently finds a perfect sized piece of driftwood or something. Remember what Calypso said? About him having a “touch of destiny?” I think that the sea could never kill him, will always cradle him and protect him, because all along he was destined to be the captain of the Flying Dutchman. The sea could no more kill him than a human could cut off their own arm.

#gonna mentally pair this with that post about how elizabeth heralds death #every man she kisses shortly afterwards dies at sea #and she sees the ghostly black pearl as a girl when no one else does #and at the start of the story elizabeth - the sea’s own psychopomp - sees will floating past and sounds the alarm to save him #and she falls in love with the one man the sea will never kill (@aethersea​)

i love them forever

There’s another thing that Elizabeth does that absolutely is because she’s the Ocean’s Psychopomp - when they’re bringing Jack back from the land of the dead and the Black Pearl is sailing through the sea with all the ghosts in the boats, the crew is warned to not try to talk to or rescue them because they can’t even see the Pearl anyways (”we are naught but ghosts to them"). But when Elizabeth sees her father she calls to him, snd then COMMANDS him to hear her and he responds. Shes the only one who interacts with the ghosts who aren’t supposed to be able to perceive them.

I refuse to believe that the writers weren’t doing this on purpose, I think they absolutely were writing Elizabeth with this in mind.

If you are using undocumented immigrants' tax records to find and kidnap them, then it was never about them paying taxes. If you are showing up at their place of employment, then it was never about them not working. If you are showing up at courthouses, then it was never about getting them to "do it the right way". If you are kidnapping women and children, then it was never about criminals. If you're refusing to give them due process, then it was never about the Constitution. If you are building concentration camps in Florida to keep them here in cages, then it was never about the border. If you're spending billions to do this, then it was never about the economy. And if you're doing all this in the name of a 34 time convicted felon, then it was never about following the law.

the reason going viral on tumblr sucks is because instead of money you get death threats over statements you've never made in your entire life

me: I like pizza

my notes: most employees at pizza restaurants make minimum wage so this is problematic. if you cook your own pizza you're an elitist because having a kitchen makes you one of the bourgeoisie. stop appropriating italian culture. op why are you supporting a classically white food? I guess you want every other type of restaurant to go out of business. pizza is masculine and so it's evil. you're promoting obesity by mentioning food. kill yourself btw

my bank account: you have 31 dollar
