television history

Another booktok thing that never fails to make me chuckle its when they just do a Ship of Theseus with a plot and call it a reteling when it's a whole ass new story like

"Would you like to read a snow white adult retelling but it's a mafia romance enemies to lovers Stockholm syndrome thriller set in 1960s Italy"

"Would you read an adult retelling of Aladdin but it's formula one romance modern fantasy with a faerie love interest and vampires"

My reaction is always like "not my cup of tea but you got me intrigued "

Helluva boss season two is a telenovela for people who used to read south park Yaoi in middle school

Really nice guy who hates only you

Academic rivals except it’s two teachers who compete to have the best class

Divorce of convenience

Too much communication

True hate’s kiss (only kissing your enemy can break a curse)

This actually explains so much of what is wrong with this show

For me one of the biggest red flags for the Hazbin cast is how proud their creator appears to be that she has had (most?) of them since junior high. I mean kudos to anyone who has a concept they came up with when they were 11 that still works, but for me it doesn’t exist. Any characters I created at that age would need to be entirely remade in order to have any appeal now. And even then I’m not sure I’d want people to know that that was their origin, that my ideas of writing and character creation haven’t evolved much since childhood.

Medrano's designs have a " I had a a pastel gore phase in 2014 and never grew out of it" vibe i can't unsee

I want to ✨️boop✨️ rhysand

And by ✨️boop✨️I mean whack him in the head with a meat mallet

[angel-maybe-alive]

No no no you dont get it alright, Acotar is a dark romance and you shouldn't apply real life morals to it when it comes to rhysand and the IC actions theor crimes are justified by the narrative and themes ,Now if we are talking about Nesta and Tamlin then acotar is feminism and psychology 101 and we should sentence them to hell for their crimes

In other words schrödinger dark romance

After watching mostly of helluva boss and some of Hazbin hotel I can say for sure that the biggest problem with the vivzie verse it's that miss medrano clearly wanted to make a seth McFarlane style of edgy adult comedy but also a Steven universe style of politically correct lovey dovey lesson of the day show so now she attracted both type of fans and they are tearing each other online like this is civil war

In other words she tried to make family guy for white liberals and caused world war three

Sjm is incapable of writing good representation for literally anything other than IBS

I just love how in Sarah j Maas books the solution for a lot of problems involves some form of Dick either its being dicked down so good your trauma vanishes or being fated by the universe to a proper dick of a guy so he can make your problems vanish

I just discovered foodtimeline.org, which is exactly what it sounds like: centuries worth of information about FOOD.  If you are writing something historical and you want a starting point for figuring out what people should be eating, this might be a good place?

Look I'm not saying anything

But those are all from different books

I'm not joking all those characters are different characters

I'm not going to say anything

How's everyone week going?

I just saw a couple of instagram comments calling the handmaid's tale "the author's barely disguised fetish " and calling it smut and now I lost completely any hope for the reading comprehension of this generation

Pack up everyone literature is dead porn killed it

If you haven’t done so yet you can vote on the other polls as well

Look

I got into formula one recently (it's a long story) but you know what it changed me

I can respect now romantasy authors who only write cliche about their psycho fae dream boys it's not good literature, far from it actually i still believe its fucking up a lot of girls spectations about sex and sexuality, But I can respect

Now I was made aware of an author who wrote a full on erotica about a real life formula one driver with his full government name in it, no Hardin Scott type of shit, no no no the guys actual name and his full apparently ai generated face and Slightly more ripped body in the cover.

What happened to shame

This is the type of shit you wrote on wattpad and kept there. If you got too popular, then you would change some stuff, especially the guys name, and maybe publish it, but mostly it would die as free erotica on wattpad.

By the way I'm not against rpf as fanfic because let's be real no multimillionaire is out there on ao3 and if they are they know what they were signing for, something something the fourth wall between celebrities and their fans

But this woman just bought a hammer to the fourth wall with no sign of giving a fuck

I'm baffled, okay.
