#this episode was silly ‘was I this bad’ ‘no/yes’

[emberphoenixisgoingtolive]

I know I can just say this in reblogs or comments but YOUR HEADCANONS ARE AWESOME!!!

You might have already done this but by chance do you have any n6 camping headcanons? (Post island) :D

camp fam going camping headcanons:

i’m so sorry this is like. mostly silly shenanigans and also a month late :’))

general:

i think nublar put them off camping for a solid year afterwards, but they kinda came around to the idea after a fair bit of therapy

so what do they do? they plan a giant fucking camping trip with the whole group, their parents, Mae, Dave and Roxie

the tent groups go as such:

Brooklynn, Yaz, Sammy

Ben, Kenji, Darius

Dave, Roxie, Mae

Simone (Darius’s mother), Brand, Ash and Trevor (Brooklynn’s dads)

Evelynn (Ben’s mother), Nadia (Yaz’s mother), and Sammy’s parents

Dave does a bbq every evening for dinner and he loves it (and yes, be brought his own bbq from home)

they have a campfire every night. the campfire confessions are wild. one of the camp fam makes the most dark and morbid joke ever, and the other five are laughing their heads off while the adults are sitting on camping chairs a few metres away blinking in horror

when the camp fam go, the girls all have their period at around the same time (they planned this trip sooo badly oops) and the first night, the boys are super loud and chatty and kind of annoying and the girls get almost no sleep, so that morning, at 5am, Yaz wakes up and empties their bin of (wrapped) sanitary products all over their tent floor. Kenji’s screams of disgust wake the whole group (and half the campsite) up. when the adults work out what happened, they’re laughing their heads off. Kenji turns to Dave and says “can’t you say something? do it for me, guy to guy?” and Dave, cackling with laughter, goes, “sorry buddy, you're on your own”

as revenge for the Period Prank, Ben puts a live cockroach in Yaz’s sleeping bag. this then sparks a massive incident later known as the Bug Wars. everyone is finding the most gruesome critters to sneak onto someone else’s unsuspecting limb/shoulder or into someone’s unsuspecting tent/sleeping bag/duffel. the creatures are slowly getting more and more gross and creepy. it started as girls vs boys but alliances were made and broken. it’s everyone against each other

this is all put to a stop when Ben and Kenji try to train a coyote to steal clothes and both get bitten

Dave, Roxie and Mae are trusted to take the kids hiking one day while the camp fam’s parents explore the town, and they actually have so much fun exploring and being in the wilderness (yk... without dangerous dinosaurs and threats to their survival). Dave and Roxie are actually very fun people to be around when they aren’t responsible for the kids’ safety on a dinosaur filled island

Dave, Roxie and Mae also tease the campers and give advice. they’re besties guys trust

by the end of the trip, the camp fam’s parents have a newfound respect for Dave, Roxie and Mae. honestly they understand why they struggled keeping the kids under control. individually they aren’t so bad but together they are the most feral children they have ever encountered. together we make us so much worse (more chaotic) vibes

Darius:

FINALLY gets to finish telling that campfire story he never finished in season 1 episode 3. he’s making everyone listen to it

went camping a few times as a kid so he knows how to set up a tent and everything. he’s the one teaching Kenji how to camp, and bless him he’s so patient but Kenji is such a disaster

helps Sammy with the cooking/washing dishes stuff

Brooklynn:

biggest overpacker. brings a hair dryer before realising there is no power at the campsite

she stays up SO late chatting and whispering and giggling. Sammy and Yaz hit her with pillows to make her stop and it turns into a full blown pillow fight. from the outside of their tent it looks like they’re fistfighting a flock of seagulls

Yaz:

hits Kenji’s hand with a hammer by mistake when they were putting up the tents

every morning (stupid early morning. 5–6am morning. before breakfast morning), Yaz goes on a run and every time, she takes a different person with her. she takes Sammy, her mother, Roxie, Brooklynn, Ben, Darius, and the last morning she goes alone because Kenji refused to go running

Sammy crawls into her sleeping bag at night (to snuggle only) and it’s the best thing ever

Sammy:

crawls into Yaz’s sleeping bag at night and it’s the best thing ever

accidentally stepped on Brooklynn while she was going to snuggle with Yaz and Brooklynn muttered “stupid fucking sapphics” in her sleep

in charge of washing the dishes and general cooking stuff. she LOVES cooking food on the fire, she finds it so charming and quaint

Dave is basically a grilling expert, so he teaches Sammy how to use a grill and they have so much fun doing barbeques together

Kenji:

by the end of the trip, the camp fam come to the conclusion that Kenji must’ve angered the wilderness somehow because it fucking hates him

he gets scratched by brambles, accidentally falls into poison ivy, stung by nettles, stung by wasps, stung by bees, bitten by a coyote, and twists his ankle in one week

somehow he still manages to have a good time

he also learns a lot about taking responsibility (in a non near death situation) and is very enthusiastic to help out around the campsite

Ben:

his mother fully expected him to be wary of all the germs/wilderness and is so shocked when he does shit like plays in the dirt and eats bugs

drags his sleeping bag out of the tent and sleeps on the ground. or he forgets his sleeping bag entirely and falls asleep on the grass

adores the campfire. stops toasting marshmallows and straight up sets sticks on fire, waving them around like torches. this continues until he accidentally sets the boys’ tent on fire and he stops

wants to camp in the most remote locations; the others make him compromise on a camp site near a woodland area that he spends most of his time exploring

I appreciate the bit where the vanguard confirmed john wasn’t lying about the stairs seeing as how john lying about things not being there is quite the touchy subject!

gob forbids a character goes through grief falls into depression and then reacts badly after some random people came to him telling him his daughter's soul is alive and was put into an animatronic body, the random people being robots and including the killer of his daughter in his eyes and comprehension, that apparently is now her adoptive dad just because he can, and even better they're all taking her away from him (he has no idea how much away they're taking her) and gets treated like the scum of earth for falling intro depression and addictions after losing his beloved daughter, god forbids he wants revenge and god forbids he's in a terrible mental state, cause surely no human would ever get mad and desperate for their kid dying and coming back and then taken away by the killer himself

surely

ep 43 had me tearing up in a fucking shopping centre ‼️‼️

b+w alt version that I truly couldn't decide if I liked it more . Also I included a lot of thoughts in the tags but they're somewhat incoherent<3

Welcome to the sloppy drinking olympics!

[spinnysocks]

What aspect about s3 of tlg did you struggle with?

mainly that the outlanders just aren't in it XD

that doesn't mean i don't like it or don't watch it though!!; i liked the sendoff the pridelanders gave the guard, i absolutely adore travelling arcs in any media so i really liked the first few episodes, and i liked the exploration of new characters as well as old! we all know how much i love yun mibu :]

the first few episodes were pretty great, but once they arrived at the Tree it kinda dropped off for me. my intrigue for it kinda just.. stopped. i guess i'm not really interested in kion x rani, but i do like baylio so there's that

i wouldn't say season 3 is a bad season, but it's just not for me personally! i like that the show continued into the guard being older, but other than that it's just not about the characters i think about most is all! ^^

also, if nothing else (which its definitely still more), jenny summarizes why the 'townie' episodes are good to have in the first place

"steven, youve been under a lot of pressure. dont you think you deserve to have a little fun?"

Did something to plan the next year of my life today and I’m not gonna lie it scared the shit outta me

Thank god we get more Wang Xiaobao this season. This is going to be so funny.

look as much as i love exaggerating the weirdness of plots i like, i think some people would be surprised at the weirdness of the average plot. like, MOST stuff is sort of odd and hard to explain. so when you say "explaining the plot of this to someone who's unfamiliar must sound insane" i think youd be surprised with how much strange writing most people can hear and go "ok. huh. damn really? thats weird lol. uh huh. ok." about

I need to say something and I need y'all to be calm

if it isn't actively bad or harmful, no representation should be called "too simple" or "too surface level"

I have a whole argument for this about the barbie movie but today I wanna talk about a show called "the babysitters club" on Netflix

(obligatory disclaimer that I watched only two episodes of this show so if it's super problematic I'm sorry) (yes. I know it's based on a book, this is about the show)

this is a silly 8+ show that my 9 year old sister is watching and it manages to tackle so many complex topics in such an easy way. basic premise is these 13 year old girls have a babysitting agency.

in one episode, a girl babysits this transfem kid. the approach is super simple, with the kid saying stuff like "oh no, those are my old boy clothes, these are my girl clothes". they have to go to the doctor and everyone is calling the kid by her dead name and using he/him and this 13 year old snaps at like a group of doctors and they all listen to her. it's pure fantasy and any person versed in trans theory would point out a bunch of mistakes.

but after watching this episode, my little sister started switching to my name instead of my dead name and intercalating he/him pronouns when talking about me.

one of the 13 years old is a diabetic and sometimes her whole personality is taken over by that. but she has this episode where she pushes herself to her limit and passes out and talks about being in a coma for a while because of not recognizing the limits of her disability.

and this allowed my 9 year old sister to understand me better when I say "I really want to play with you but right now my body physically can't do that" (I'm disabled). she has even asked me why I'm pushing myself, why I'm not using my crutches when I complain about pain.

my mom is 50 years old and watching this show with my sister. she said the episode about the diabetic girl helped her understand me and my disability better. she grew up disabled as well, but she was taught to shut up and power through.

yes, silly simple representation can annoy you if you've read thousands of pages about queer liberation or disability radical thought, but sometimes things are not for you.

I am once again asking what is the evolutionary advantage for an edible to take 3 hours to set in. Why am I high now, after watching 4 Breaking Bad episodes stone cold sober

Part of the enjoyment of watching stuff like The X-Files or Buffy or Star Trek or whatever is that like. Yes, there are some excellent episodes that are truly incredible, but sometimes an episode is the dumbest shit you've ever seen in your life AND IT'S DELIGHTFUL.

I mentioned this to a friend yesterday and she was like "Oh yeah because you know there will be good episodes again so it doesn't bother you!" but no. The bad episodes are fun on their own for me. I don't always want a slick streaming series with 8 episodes where each one is a work of tightly written cinematic excellence. I can enjoy that, too, but sometimes I want an episode with the dumbest premise known to man. Not all dumb, not all the time, not badly made or created as a joke, but just...silly but heartfelt.

Like yeah, okay, I love getting an episode where Brad Dourif is channeling the dead and it's beautiful and tragic and thought provoking and powerful, but sometimes I also enjoy "the problematic weirdly sexy genderfluid Amish people turned out to be aliens you guys" performed without a breath of irony.
