*lemony snicket voice* police cars say ‘protect and serve’ for the same reason a box of dry, unflavoured rice cakes might say ‘delicious treat’. rice cakes are not a delicious treat, nor are the police there to protect and serve, but if you are unfamiliar with either you’re likely to believe what you’re told.

This phrase has already entered my vocabulary re: media criticism where like. The viewer has a concrete view of what they expect a story to be based on the tropes and cliches they're used to seeing together, and when that doesn't happen, they judge it as a failed depiction of what they assumed it was going to be instead of judging it as what it actually is.

"This show is problematic because the hero didn't kill the villain at the end": When does he steal the bread?

"These two characters who were close friends throughout the series don't kiss at the end! What the fuck?": When does he steal the bread?

"This feels like it's missing a conclusion! Like, the protagonist does bad stuff and because of a critical decision he makes as a result of his major character flaws, meets tragedy in the end! Where's the part where he learns better and brings is love back from the dead and becomes a good guy and gets a happy ending?": When does he steal the fucking bread??

I heard this out as "When criticizing something, you must judge it for what it is, not what it isn't"

TADC episode 9 spoilers

For as cute as I think the intention behind the choice of "Isnt She Lovely" for Jax was, it was pointless whitewash cuz dude just dies anyway and is not reborn as a girl at all 😭

Til the bitter end, he never accepted that part of himself, so the song was absolutely useless and is now associated with a white man who was irredeemable after all 🫠

I will honestly avoid referring to that song when it comes to Jax cuz I just. It feels wrong when it didnt fcking matter in the end.........

Translucent enamel on teeth are kind of a vibe… everything looks better at 50% opacity. Or maybe this is a giant cope after my dentist told me I can’t have energy drinks anymore cause I’m ruining my enamel.
