i feel like the only reason gustholomule is as popular as it is is bc matt is gus' only friend who's actually around his age

not complaining about this at all, because i am an alenoah shipper but i find it really interesting how if you sort fics by hits on ao3 on the total drama fandom tag, literally all of the ones that come up at the top are alenoah longfics, i always forget how popular they are on ao3. as they should be

[hate-bracket]

Bro I just saw obsession and I'm legitimately gonna have to re run the hate bracket to include Bear holy shit fuck that guy

Leave any suggestions for the hate bracket below because damn Bear fucking sucks holy!

I hate how the fandom sees Alador as this character that didn’t know about his wife’s abuse and as a floozy. I don’t like Alador because not only did he participate in his wife’s abuse, but he neglected his children as well. His redemption was utter nonsense, because it doesn’t make sense. He was an absent father and clearly played favorites like Odalia did. He molded his children to only be work tools and when they weren’t useful, ignored them. His abuse, while not as demeaning as Odalia’s, is still abuse. He needs to have a serious evaluation about himself before even getting close with his children, they don’t really know him either. He also had so many chances to stop her too and didn’t.

I hate how the fandom just decides Odalia was the be all and end all of all evil when BELOS was the one pulling the strings and making her environment the way it was, OH BUT SHE CARES ONLY ABOUT MONEY, yeah because her products weren't selling, she probably was in debt thanks to that, Alador's absentmindedness, and her shareholders threatening her to kick her out of the company and if that happened or she went bankrupt then no source of income, no food, no home and on the boiling isles where the rain burns you and there are dangerous creatures out to eat you a home is important to have, OH BUT SHE WORKED WITH BELOS WITH THE DAY OF UNITY! yeah because belos created such an environment of fear that if she didn't she'd either be punished by the titan or by belos' goons, not to mention the fact that he's the most powerful being on the isles save for the collector so it was done in the hopes he'd spare her family! OH BUT SHE HATES LUZ AND WANTED TO KILL HER, yeah because Luz is a wanted criminal who lead a raid on a jail for a FRIGGEN PAPER CROWN! of course she doesn't want Amity or her kids around someone like Luz! OH BUT SHE'S ABUSIVE! so she was a little hard on her kids, that's because she saw they had the potential to become something great and on the boiling isles where its a "might makes right world' of course she has to push them to get good grades and succeed! God the media illiteracy in some people!!!

Just saw Backrooms movie, please see it before film twitter tells you it actually sucks

So Matthew Rhys (the voice of Belos) is starring in a show (Widow's Bay) where he's the mayor of a town plagued by supernatural events?

Oh my God, Owl House fandom get on making AUs/crossovers based on that show!
