"lying is easy. it's what i do" / "fighting is easy. that's what i do" do you get ittttt

like what if there was this thing that you felt was all you were and you hated yourself for it but in reality it was just what you needed to do to survive

and what if that very thing was what someone you cared about deeply also needed to survive

and you see that person and what they are and you understand why they've become and maybe

maybe if they're not a monster then you aren't either

Arcane S2 possible Spoiler!!!!

Don't read if you don't want any possible spoiler!!!!!

Okay that said:

1) I understand now when people say you should be scared of the quiet and gentle people going into a rage, like Caitlyn darling you scare af

2) Not sure if anyone thinks different or not, but at this moment lo-key Vi's a bit of a jinx too, because like bruh you did tell Cait to take the shot and even if she did hit the kid she most likely would have hit Jinx too

3) The kiss! (we won)

4) The angst :( (and also lost)

5) The animation and soundtrack :D

6) I can't wait for people to start posting about all the little things they've noticed

7) Fanfics/fanart I can't wait to see you

8) This show is going to absolutely destroy people, including myself and I can't wait for the rest of the episodes to drop

9) I really want to know why Caitlyn's shirt is black in the opening and everyone else's is white, definitely a metaphor in there, maybe something about losing innocence or the fall of her kind believing in good of people I don't know. Tumblr sleuths do your thing

I'm as grateful for cellphones as the next person, but sometimes I think about how everyone having a phone on them at all times really did cause us to loose some things as a society. I mean - for example, kids these days will never experience their car breaking down and needing to find the nearest place with a phone they can use. They're never going to have the opportunity to tentatively approach a house only to discover that it's full of queer people having a party hosted by a transvestite to celebrate his creation of a sex homunculus, stay the night, and loose their virginity while unintentionally partaking in cannibalism. It's tragic, that kind of gay sexual awakening just doesn't happen these days because of cellphones.

throw the man a bone batman geez

[ID: A fancomic featuring Batman and Superman in a diner. Superman sips coffee while saying, "You know... I DO show off sometimes, only to impress you." Batman looks shocked before he narrows his eyes at Superman. "Impress... me?" Superman smiles, says "Mhm," and takes a long sip. Batman, frowning: "You're Superman." Superman throws up his hands and replies, "RIGHT? It shouldn't be this hard. Why are you making this so difficult?" End ID] described by @nebulations

you know you're in a special circle of tv hell when you start hypothesising that maybe it was written bad on purpose

No, because what do you mean Arcane has completely rewritten the rulebook on queer representation in media, and it did it so effortlessly that it puts so many other shows to shame. Like, how are you going to tell me this animated series—ostensibly a spin-off of a video game—has given us some of the most nuanced, unapologetically powerful sapphic characters ever without reducing them to stereotypes, side plots, or, worse, trauma porn?

Vi and Caitlyn? Their dynamic is ELECTRIC. You’ve got Vi, the rough-edged, fiercely loyal, scrappy brawler with a tender side that could wreck anyone emotionally, and Caitlyn, the sharp, principled, deeply empathetic enforcer with a heart of gold. The way their relationship is built on mutual respect and trust while navigating all the insane, tragic chaos around them? Literal chef's kiss. And not once do we get the tired, lazy "coming out" narrative or the "but what about the gays?" rhetoric. Their queerness isn’t the story—it’s just a beautifully natural part of who they are. And THAT is revolutionary.

And let’s not even stop there. This show handles gender like it’s been waiting for everyone else to catch up. Characters like Sevika, who could give you chills with her sheer badassery and gender-nonconforming energy, exist unapologetically without the narrative ever feeling the need to spoon-feed us explanations. It’s just there, woven seamlessly into the fabric of the world.

So many shows claim to want to "normalize" queer relationships or push the envelope, but Arcane has quietly dominated the space by just writing characters who feel authentic. Their struggles are about class, power, loyalty, trauma, not token representation or forced diversity. This show said, “We’re just going to make some of the most layered, compelling characters you’ve ever seen—and oh yeah, some of them are gay. Keep up.”

Like, the bar wasn’t just raised—it was launched into the stratosphere. What do you mean this level of representation isn’t the norm yet? Arcane said, “We’re not asking for permission to exist. We’re just existing.” And that? That is art.

Percy Jackson is against bullying.

He is however very sad that neither Annabeth, Clarrise or Drew had met Octavian in camp Jupiter, because as much as he frowns on it he would pay any kind of money to see those three tear him a new one for acting like a little bitch he is.
