Astarte's Cradle

She/Her. Very queer. History nerd, fantasy lover. I enjoy mythology so much it hurts. D&D definitely made me satanic, but now I've started my Pathfinder Era and I'm glowing!

This isn't about shame. This is about privacy. And the fundamental right of self determination, which are exactly the principles on which the struggle for queer liberation has always been fought.

i just remembered that t100 really had a scene where bellamy was sleeping on the couch while clarke was in the same room, working on the list, and i just....the intimacy of that??? correct me if i'm wrong, but i don't think there was another scene in this show where one of two characters was sleeping unless they were involved romantically. that is just so loud!! i cannot believe. i guess technically, there was another bellarke scene like this lmao. where clarke was sleeping by the fire and bellamy was watching her sleep...AGAIN ARE YOU KIDDING

YESSS.

And i always found the parallel with Marcus and Abby (who weren't together at the time) in 3.01 very telling.

The closeness, the intimacy, this "togetherness" was just so heavy.

All of Season 4 was about Clarke and Bellamy becoming more and more emotionally intimate. The List Scene was probably the most obvious example, but there were others.

And all of this — this journey they took towards one another for the entire season — had only one purpose. And that was to make it all the more heartbreaking, all the more gut-wrenching, when they were cruelly ripped apart by fate at the very last moment.

And then Season 5 just rubbed salt into the wound, both for the characters and the audience.

Then finally, in Season 6, the plot was all about the terror they went through before they found each other again, and they did that when Bellamy brought Clarke back from the dead through the sheer power of his love for her.

That’s what they wrote, folks. A great romance. A truly epic romance, with all the tropes and all the bells and whistles. By 613, they were 98% there.

And then, in Season 7, the writers forgot all about Clarke and Bellamy. They dropped them back into the story only briefly, and only so that one of them would have a chance to kill the other.

Now I ask you… who the hell writes a story that way?

It really freaks me out that people think body hair is unsanitary. Like y'all are just so brainwashed if you believe that body hair is perfectly normal and fine on men, but on women its suddenly dirty? Use your critical thinking skills for a few damn seconds, I’m begging you.

we need to start being annoying the same way blue eyed people have been annoying for years. my eyes are coffee brown with a hint of olive and earthy soil, but on rainy days they become, like, more wood brown? you know like king arthur's table i guess? if you look at them in the sunlight they become almost golden though so it's really hard to pin them down haha. yeah no it's crazy i was just born like this i guess

Just so we're all on the same page with the writer's strike.

If during the strike, it's announced about AI generated shows. We are not watching them. Not even out of curiosity. Let them fail every AI generated show they try make.

The human voice can not be replaced by AI. Don't let them try.

My favorite response to “that’s not a word” is “then why do you know what it means?”
