It was the best moment of my life. The abstract? perfectly aligned with my claim. The data? perfectly citable for my evidence section. perfectly analyzeable for my claim. I fear that I will never be as happy as the moment I read that article.

Natalie's arc in n2n is so wild. she's afraid of becoming like her mother. her mother doesn't remember her. she's smart and accomplished but it's going down the drain. she doesn't want to be crazy. she's on the same drugs her mother is and she's 16 years old. everything is about her mother and nobody is there for her. makes me cry every time.

his acting in N2N was crazy good and honestly while his singing is definitely not at the level of Caissie Levy or Jack Wolfe his performance made me sob and I'd rather have that than perfectly executed notes. his performance brought so much more depth to the show.

I'm gonna need everyone on here to start being nicer to Jamie Parker😭he might sing like Kermit but he emotes through song like nobody's business

watched the PBS proshot of N2N. Am I okay? no. Was it one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen? absolutely yes. Will I ever shut up about it? never. I didn't know that it existed yesterday and within the span of less than 12 hours I have gone from confused about its existence to absolutely sure that it is a masterpiece. Jack Wolfe as Gabe? the CHARACTERIZATION?? Natalie and Henry? the parallels between Natalie and Diana? The fear that she'll be like her mother someday? it hits HARD

healing is a great power. to take the absence of life and fill it up. But the overgrowth, the festering: they're just as horrifying. And you look at the enemy, look at their face spattering with the blood of their friends, and you know what to do. And you look at them, you see them for all they are: not just a person, but a colony of bacteria, but a cluster of cells. And you tell those cells, those bacteria: live, live, live. and the microbiome inside of them multiplies, and their red blood cells multiply. blood leaks from their every orifice, their features go huge for a split second, before they burst. And you stand on the battle field, head turned up to their warm rain of blood. You are not a cleric: you are something far worse.

You were the healer—the last light of your party. But now your final ally dies in your arms, and there’s no one left to save. The enemy jeers, calling you useless. You look up, eyes hollow and black. The light is gone. The Void answers. You're no longer a cleric. You're something far worse.

There were so many things that could have been expanded upon in the finale to make it more interesting - but they just didn't?? Like I want to know where Ray is and what happened to him and why Diego and Lila are both so unhappy and what everybody's life is actually like. They drop that Viktor's dated everybody in town, but they don't expand on the changes in his character that made it that way? And where's Sissy? Aside from all of the very odd plot choices (cough cough, Five and Lila) I feel like in s4 they didn't expand on the characters enough to make me genuinely care about any of the characters.

The first thing Klaus took from that box was Dave’s dog tags and they just don’t talk about it. Viktor has trouble committing to relationships and this problem is not further elaborated upon. Ray’s abandonment is used as a dig against Allison. Luther seems to have given up searching for Sloane and only mentions her once. Diego and Lila are not content with family life and an unnecessary love triangle is formed between them and Five. The writers absolutely had no interest writing captivating personal drama or stakes for the Hargreeves in their final season.

I thought that the season was weird basically as soon as it was brought up that Viktor apparently had turned into a fuckboy??? Which just felt like a strange decision - but compared to the rest of the season, that inaccuracy pales in comparison.

you're laughing. The umbrella academy's final season destroyed every character's personal growth and semi-healed traumas, left huge plot-holes, completely abandoned some of it's most beloved side characters that were crucial in previous seasons and you're laugh-oh. You're crying. My bad. Go ahead. Let it out. Understandable.

Full name is pretty common but the name I actually use is spelled a little oddly - for some reason they used a spelling they saw in the newspaper, used by a science writer. There's exactly one person who's even kinda famous with that spelling and lots of ppl bring it up. So I don't know what to say? B/c the pronunciation of my name is super common, to the point where people just started calling me by my last name, but the spelling is very rare.

No clue. Literally none. She's sort of a cross between a blanket and a stuffed animal sheep (we think). 'Tis is a mystery as old as me.

Right, considering the current state of corporate politics on this site, and that it seems that only those affected seem to be actively speaking on the matter, it is up to I, the only fucking cishet on tumblr, to drag this out to a wider audience.

REBLOG IF YOUR ACCOUNT IS A TRANSFEM SAFE SPACE.

We need to show these higher ups how much we truly value them.
