I'm tired of the tiktokification of being gay. I hate seeing myself sanitized and sold back to me as a quirky identity. We should occlude this shit. If you witness our secret rites you get your eyes plucked out by Roman legionaries.

You want to know why Inigo Montoya remains such an iconic and beloved character even 35 years after the Princess Bride came out?
It’s because he’s one of the few characters in fiction who has a story where he has dedicated his life to revenge, his whole motivation is about getting revenge….and he gets it! and then he isn’t empty or despairing! he doesn’t regret it! he’s totally satisfied!
because so many stories about revenge or rage are about characters “seeing the futility of their actions” or learning “their desire for revenge has only made them the monsters they hated” FUCK THAT.
Inigo Montoya kills the man who kills his father, is allowed to live in the narrative after and be happy about it and it is so satisfying. it’s fantastic. it’s iconic.
let more characters rage against the world, bring it down with bloodied hands, and let them be FUCKING RIGHT about it. Let them celebrate their success with sharp grins, and let them live happy, full lives where they always remain proud/fulfilled for what they’ve done
Another thing that set Inigo Montoya apart from other characters with vengeance arcs is that Inigo’s vengeance drove him but it didn’t consume him. He was wronged and wanted - needed that injustice to be corrected - but his vengeance was focused. Rather than taking his pain out on the whole world, Inigo was a charming, pleasant, good-humored person that treated everyone respectfully, even folks he was fighting. He even asks politely to people he meets about any extra digits they may have.
Would a bitter, angry, vengeance-consumed man swear on the life of his father and help a guy he was planning to duel, then give him time to catch his breath? Would he hand his sword over to his future opponent to lovingly show off his late-father’s skill as a swordmaker?
“You seem a decent fellow. I hate to kill you.”
I think part of what makes Inigo so iconic and beloved is because while vengeance was his story, it wasn’t who he was, so when he achieved his vengeance it was less an emptiness and more of a satisfaction, a story completed, a wrong made right, and a man suddenly baffled at the possibilities before him, not sure what his next story would be.
ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID????? Kindest regards,

Do you ever like physically feel yourself pass your mental breaking point and then all you can think is “oh these next few days are going to be interesting”
Like you’re just sitting there silently and on the outside you seem fine and gathered but in your head you’re like “oh this is gonna hit me like a train any second”
Glad to see all 19k of us are clearly fine and okay

I’m enjoying the new Bee and Puppycat season on Netflix, but the first three episodes just feel off to me.
I know it’s just a rehashed season 1 and they had to fit alot of material into a small amount of episodes, but it felt as though they thought they had to put certain iconic scenes in, but did so without understanding how they worked and why it was effective in the first place.
For example the first episode where Puppycat tells the story of the Space Outlaw, in the original he did it because Wallace was crying and asked for a story. In the new season, he just goes “Here’s a song”. You can kinda tell what moments were brought in from the original because it doesn’t transition as smoothly, they just look like benchmarks the new version thought it had to hit.
As a whole the new episodes fit better with Lazy in Space, but it’s just something I noticed.
#not even mentioning the bee robot reveal and her conversation with puppycat while her arm is being fixed#the og worked so well because it was paced well and conveyed the idea that puppycat didnt care she was different#he just wanted to know more about her#where in the new version they have the same dialogue but that feeling is not conveyed at all#its more focused on the box and her dad and future plot#i guess that is my general issue with the new season#the shift from a character focused show to a plot focused show#plus they took away the Bee arcade birthday episode :'(#still enjoying it as a casual watch though#bee and puppycat#bee and puppcat lazy in space#icy says stuff
As I mentioned before, I enjoy when the presence of the documentary crew is acknowledged in some way. And we had a brief glimpse of Greg the camera guy on the catwalk with them just before the moment when Guillermo took refuge behind him.
[ID: two gifs from season 4 episode 04 of what we do in the shadows. the first gif shows nandor with a sword in hand charging towards the camera that's shaking a lot. he yells "Stop hiding behing Greg!" as he swings the sword around the camera man (greg), which causes guillermo to come out from behind him, finally showing up on camera, also with a sword in hand. the second gif is of the same duel from a different angle, showing greg filming the fight as it happens right in front of him. greg's name has been added above his head to label him. /End ID] - credit for description to @whatsyourid
