Imagine you kiss your "platonic" girlbestfriend on the mouth then watch her get married to your tall man big eye crush because you told them to and then your friend you met not even six months ago goes

😌"... you remind me so much of your father... Osama Bin Laden."

winona ryder's character in stranger things has never been wrong even once and every time the fucking gravity turns off or whatever she says "hey thats weird right" and everyone in a 10 mile radius is like "woah category five woman moment incoming"

if i were joyce byers and somebody told me i was overreacting to anything i would say "remember the time an entire town thought i was insane but it turned out the government actually did fake my son's death after he got sucked into an alien hell dimension?" i would milk that for all it was worth for the rest of my life

So whilst The Testaments has been ongoing I've been rewatching bits and bobs of The Handmaid's Tale at the same time and I've been reminded of something that stood out to me initially and something that stands out to me now still.

That a show centred around religion being used for evil still makes an effort to show it in a positive light.

We see many aspects of characters displaying religious faith in spite of Gilead; June is shown and heard praying and uses Bible quotes in her naration. Rita is said to be Catholic and tells Serena she'll pray for her son. June asks if there's a Bible she can swear on before testifying. Moira and Luke have Nichole baptised because "She deserves to be absolved of their sins". June finds a hidden Quran and prayer mat in the econofamily's home.

Characters are shown taking comfort and strength in their faith in a world where it would be all too easy to either abandon it all together or wonder if God truly does support Gilead's views.

Considering this book and series have been used by some to argue that religion as a whole is bad and damaging, and as a Catholic myself, I really appreciate the fact that the show makes an effort to put forward the point that Christianity and religion itself is not the evil, its the people who twist and abuse it for their own personal gains who are the true evil. And that's pretty damn true in a lot of real world situations historically and today. But in spite of it, we can still have and take comfort in faith and belief of a better world to come.

I’m actually screaming and clawing at my enclosure over how people managed to literally make THE HANDMAID’S TALE centered on their favorite MAN. Or how people managed to make all of their fan content regarding a politically-themed dystopian story about women’s rights center exclusively on the romantic subplot 😭😭

Nick was never supposed to be a good guy!! That was intentional!! He was meant to show how even the ‘nice’ men in patriarchal systems will ultimately still choose the power and security offered to them by the patriarchy over protecting the rights of women. He only ever ‘rebelled’ because he loved June, not because he ever cared about the rights of women in Gilead. Somebody save media literacy because we cannot do the “the hunger games is actually about the Katniss love triangle!!” thing all over again

To the lady at the bookstore who bought a stack of banned books and told me, “I want my child to be able to read these in the future,” I see you.

[wolverineheight]

hey controversial opinion but clean water should be fucking free and people should never be allowed to make money off of it because its fucking needed to live

Strange racists and homophobes on the internet seem to have access to an alternate way cooler version of TV than me. "every white character on TV is in an interracial relationship" "every show has a gay couple in it" "main characters keep having to secretly be bisexual and nonbinary" "every show has gratuitous full frontal nudity" like damn promise?? What channel???

Magical artifacts hunter, supervillain, and businesswoman coats the table, herself, her (recipe-)laptop, and the entire kitchen in flour to make three half-burned madeleines for her son.

[lapaon]

The madeleinse weren't the only thing she burned. That oven is in a better place now.

Suddenly thinking of 1989’s The Little Mermaid and you know what, give Eric some props here because he had the weirdest fucking hour of his life—

Wakes up from hypnosis where he was about to marry a woman he’s never seen before with his mystery girl’s voice, the instant he wakes up then the cute girl he’s actually fallen in love with now has that voice. Then she drops to the floor and has a fish tail, and then the first girl is suddenly cackling “too late!” and bursting out of her skin. So it turns out she’s actually an octopus woman who drags herself over to the real mystery girl - who’s a mermaid?! They’re real?! - and taking her back into the ocean. And Eric has no idea what’s going on here but okay, one of these women is clearly evil and he needs to go after his mystery girl.

And all of this happens/he realizes what he has to do within like, a single minute.

Prior to this he was just living out a sweet romance after having a Meet Cute with a shipwrecked girl, but okay, guess he’s involved in whatever the fuck this is. Acting first, questioning later.

And this is all before the kaiju attacks.

[twinklecupcake]

And let's also remember that Eric is one of the few Disney heroes who actively, deliberately murdered the villain.

He went "Okay then" and killed.

[daughterofscotland]

I mean. Dude has a castle at the ocean. Man is used to killing seafood.

Teen wolf did miss out on the potential comedy of giving the teens some fuckass teen job. Stiles keeps getting in trouble at the donut place for skipping work and for keeping wolfsbane in the fridge and for making out with Derek hale on the hood of a camero in the lot in his uniform, what who said that.

Deaton has to go to a conference and a normal vet takes over for a week. He is not impressed with Scott's work ethic.

[scyllaswrath]

The biphobia in this fandom is craaaaazy, the fact that as a bisexual woman who is marrying a man a lot of people in this fandom would call me not a real or valid member of the LGBTQ+ community is insane. Kitty has had real feelings for girls and boys and has ended up with a man, doesn’t make her any less bisexual!!!
