I love them so much, it's incredible how much I think about Lovro and Ivan every time

[yvesln]

what a lot of people outside of the balkans don't seem to fully get is that while sram is an adaptation, it is portraying our reality. i find that ivan and lovro talking about homophobic violence is more compelling than a cuddle scene, because these are actual conversations we have to have and fears we face living in a conservative region and they're being discussed on national television. that underwater kiss means something because queer stories aren't told by our media and i'm glad that, today, teens here can see this. i couldn't have even imagined it.

[tiredlylaughing]

praising sram for its accurate depiction of queer people's fear in a homophobic country and judging it now that lovro outwardly expresses that fear by pushing ivan away. i'm reminded again and again people who haven't lived it will truly never get it

[skamiverse]

This clip had everything: breaking and entering, lovro apologizing for shoving ivan away, ivan pushing lovro in the water, an underwater kiss

[know-ill-keep-moving]

i just love how the context of eastern europe and the homophobia present here influences this remake, cause yes there's still homophobia in the rest of europe as well but in most of the other versions it felt like isak was more hindered by repressing his true self and being unsure about his own feelings, meanwhile lovro seems more aware of there being something between him and ivan but rejecting him feels much more motivated by fear than anything else

"Oh but both sides have it bad."

Palestinians are dying by the thousands, whole families are being wiped out in seconds.

Israeli's are posting "get ready with me, war edition" videos where they bake bread for soilders.

While the Palestinians are eating bread caked with blood just to survive.

The Israelis are posting cheering as bombs land and hoping more Palestinians die.

Signing off videos with "hastag stay thirsty."

Knowing that the Palestinians have no clean water, and they are drinking dirty water which makes them sick just to survive.

The Israelis are going to the beach, they have access to public transport, they have the freedom to move around and do whatever they wish.

The Palestinians are writing their names on their hands so they can be identified when the bombs strike.

This is not a war.

Their is no both sides.

This is genocide.

[sapper-in-the-wire]

The thing is, Israel more or less knows where everyone in Gaza lives. He was absolutely targeted again.

[miss-galaxy-turtle]

Jew here with a friendly reminder that:

Criticizing Isreal ≠ antisemetic

Supporting Palestine ≠ antisemitic

Believing in the Free Palestine cause ≠ antisemitic

BUT ALSO

A random ass Jew just living their life oceans away has nothing to do with the Isreal-Palestine conflict

Palestinian Jews exist

Jews that support Palestine exist (I am one of them)

Calling out ACTUAL antisemitism ≠ supporting Isreal

Ok mate, thank you for the Starlinks, but here's why this can't happen:

This creates a precedent for territorial wars being allowed and tolerated by the modern world, which leads to a repeat of this situation in Ukraine (until it's fully under the russian rule), Georgia, Moldova, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Finland, Czechia and Slovakia. Maybe Alaska and Japan. This has been stated by Russian politicians and religious figures repeatedly.

Nuclear countries see that nuclear blackmailing works and gain reasons to use it, since it's effective, so Iran and North Korea get ideas.

China gets the message that the world won't fight for the smaller countries' territorial integrity and tries to take Taiwan

This sparks territorial wars all over the world and hightens the likelihood of the use of nuclear weapons for leverage, intimidation and brute force in territorial debates

Simply, the world will see that agreed-upon territorial sovereignties don't mean anything unless they have military power to defend themselves, all treaties can be ignored, and the only thing that matters is willingness to flex the superior weaponry and to have valuable resources. Which was the rule that literally led to all wars before this. This will lead to many, many wars after.

Russia is testing the lines of what will be tolerated, and what the consequences for crossing those lines will be. The world is watching. If this behavior is accepted and rewarded, it will be repeated on a much larger scale.

If Destiel Was a Movie

If Destiel Was a Movie. It is a truth universally acknowledged that every hetero rom com could be vastly improved by turning it into a queer love story. Over the years we have been often asked to find a destiel fic based on a popular book or a movie. And we get it! There’s something magical about combining two of your favorite things, right? Thus we have recced quite a few fusion fics and we keep them on our Crossover tag. Sorry about the misnomer, most of the fics there are fusions ie based on another story, and not true crossovers where SPN characters interact with characters from different canon. We also have a Reference post with a huge collection of fusion fics. Here are some of our favorite movie fusion fics. Now, grab that popcorn!

All links go to our fully tagged reviews except for those fic that are recced on our Reference post, in which case links goes directly to hosting site.
