What’s your opinion on bjhm ships? bc I see almost everyone has a different opinion on this

i'm personally not too big on ships, i feel like the show ended so perfectly and i honestly wouldn't change anything about it. for me personally shipping feels like it would disrupt that perfect finale and i can't bear to do that. but i really love how other people find joy and are passionate about some ships because it just goes to show how people consume media differently. to each their own and i love seeing how people turn their favourite ships into art or fic or whatever it is!

(also thank you for the ask ily)

mr blue

sometimes i choose not to read too deeply into this song being the ending song for bojack horseman. sometimes i know the writers probably just chose a nice sounding song to close it all off

and sometimes i think i told you that i love you please believe me. i think if bojack has ever believed that he was loved for a second. i think, by the end, does he still believe it's how he sees it in the movies? that love is huge, grand gestures and screamed declarations in the rain? sometimes i think i have to go now, darling, don't be angry and how it's time to let go. sometimes i think about how losing diane was truly bojack's worst consequence, to have someone who understood him and made sense of him so deeply and genuinely, and she has to go. it's time, they are not of each other any more, they have lost a connection that ran so deep and beyond comprehension. sometimes i think i know that you're tired, know that you're sore and sick and sad for some reason, i think how diane was the person who truly understood him, she knows he's tired and sick and sad, so goddamn sad, and now he's lost her. and he's been losing her for a long time without realizing it, and there's no going back now. sometimes i think, i'll leave you with a smile, kiss you on the cheek and you will call it treason, i think that there was so much left to say. so much that could have been said, should have been said, so many unclosed wounds, so many unspoken apologies, but diane leaves with a smile. she leaves bojack with peace, with closure, with forgiveness although he has barely apologized. sometimes i think of the tragedy of it all and the wrenching beauty of the goodbye. sometimes i think i told you that i love you. please believe me. please tell me that you see it, that you believe it, that you know it. mr blue.

on penny and bojack

Recently replied to a reddit post about penny and bojack that was basically trying to pin most (if not all) of the blame on Penny for what happened after her prom. This was basically my reply (edited for tumblr). Also if you find my reddit, no you didn't!

Spoilers below.

The first time I watched this episode, I also thought that Penny was being stupid during this part and was partially to blame for what happened. She definitely needs a little lesson on taking a "no" and consent, but I came to realize that Bojack was also, once again, being selfish and wrong during this storyline. Remember, Penny is JUST over the line for sex with a major to not be considered statutory rape. Bojack at the time is in his 50's. That's pretty disgusting. I concede, Penny definitely shouldn't have kept pushing and accepted Bojack's no. Her behaviour isn't excusable either and shouldn't be simply written off, but we have to keep in mind that Penny is only 17. She isn't aware of the implications of this sexual encounter. She clearly needs to relearn a bit about consent and accepting rejection, but she is a TEENAGER and the fact is that she shouldn't be in this position in the first place.

Bojack isn't stupid. When he dances with her on the top of the water tower and tells her she looks like her mom, he knows he still has feelings for Charlotte. He knows his history of sleeping with younger girls that he is a father figure to (ie: Sarah Lynn) and making terrible shitty decisions. [OP said] it was common sense for Penny to know where this would go, because Bojack has a crush on her mom, but Penny didn't know that at the time. In fact, I would flip it around and say that it's common sense for BOJACK to know where this is going to go. Bojack knows that he still wants Charlotte, he knows that Penny is young and vulnerable and willing. And very similar to her mother, as he says on the water tower. He knows his history, his feelings, his recklessness better than anyone.

I also don't believe Penny was ever "playing the victim" or trying to ruin Bojack's life. We see when Bojack goes on the bender with Sarah Lynn that Penny almost has a panic attack when she sees Bojack. One of her first questions is, "Did you come to find me?" It's heavily implied that Bojack literally gave her a panic disorder. And this is all without even being able to see how Bojack has affected her relationships and ability to trust people! Bojack was a father figure or at least an older man that Penny looked up to and trusted. I'm sure him wanting to have sex with her has affected her future relationships and caused her to be deeply mistrustful of anyone who shows interest in her.

Although he refused the first two times, that's just proof that he knows how fucked up it is when he eventually accepts. He knows he shouldn't and he knows exactly how wrong it is, and yet he does it anyways. There is no excuse for this. If Bojack weren't so self-centred he would have gone straight to Charlotte to tell her what Penny had done immediately to make sure it doesn't happen again. But he doesn't, because he's selfish and a coward. He wants to stay here longer, please, just a bit longer, away from LA and from the mistakes he's made and the people he's hurt and the consequences of his actions.

If anyone disagrees or wants to discuss anything I said, please do. I've lately come to realize more that Bojack is actually just a really shit person as a whole (not to say he can't be redeemed or he isn't deserving of love) so this post is more Bojack-negative. Will tag Bojack neg with #bojack neg so anyone can mute if they don't want to see it.

[dizzybojack]

what's your least favourite fruit and why?

Hmm… don’t really like raspberries and blueberries. Not a huge fan of the flavor and the texture is weird to me. Strawberries are the only berries I like that I know of.

I’m fine with the flavor in candy tho. Probably because candy flavors aren’t really accurate lol.

A funny thing, though. On the flip side, I like oranges but hate orange flavored things

[dizzybojack]

If you could hug one person (or animal ig) from bjhm who would it be?
