Soo... I've finished Cultish, watched Shiny Happy People and have now moved on to Jesus and John Wayne and what's going on right now, politically, is starting to make sense...
Even in the trying to sell Iran as a Holy War thing going on.

That new UI with Experimental on...
Sure does make the 'Blank Area' skins look super silly.
The Ben 10 series are funny to me because usually I go into a franchise and I'm like "I feel everyone here bisexual" and then I look at Ben 10 and I'm more like "I feel like everyone here is somewhere on the aro/ace spectrum"
'you saw hell and now hell lives within you' is still one of the most harrowing lines i've ever heard and it came from david cages writing team truly a broken watch is right twice a day.

I see so many ACOTAR complaints about the fae characters that go something along the lines of "they've had hundreds of years to change this cultural/structural problem! why haven't they done it!"
But like... the thing about their entire species being immortal is that there's little changeover in their population. The reason we see so much change over the centuries in the real world is because the old die off. It's a lot easier to convince a young person to form more progressive thoughts than it is to change the mind of someone already set in their ways.
Hundreds of years for the fae is NOT the same as hundreds of years for mortals when it comes to progressing as a society.
That isn't to say none of them should try to enact progress, and obviously some of them do exactly that, but to say that it should obviously be done because they've had hundreds of years to do it just isn't a great argument imo
as a writer who both loves tragedy and doomed romance, and happy endings, who currently wants to write a lot of horror gothic whatever... i'm curious as to which impulse i should lean harder into: the tropes i enjoy in media, or the (fanfiction based?) impulse to end things mostly happy
