super random but y'know how sometimes you're scrolling through tumblr but you don't have the time and/or energy to read through a long analytical post? well i sometimes save those to my drafts when i'm not able to read the whole post to get to it some other time. i don't always do this, only if it's from a blog i know i 90% of the time will agree with the content of these long posts. well let's just say that whenever i see that you made/reblogged a long post on loki i just assume that it'll be a good post and save it to my drafts for later. so, congrats on having a high rate of being correct about loki

Out of the twelve episodes of the Loki show, only season 2 episodes 1, 5 and 6 felt like they were actually about Loki. He didn't even feel like the protagonist in like 75% of the show. And even in those three episodes, he was completely ooc, as if the episodes were centered around Larry not Loki. They wasted screentime on that random Zaniac guy and on Miss Minutes becoming horny ffs. Kang doesn't even matter to MCU anymore. They retconned Loki's character for nothing. I hate this all so much.

And Loki was suddenly so comfortable with using the torture devices of TVA. He was trying to protect the TVA for the majority of the series. Even at the end they don't destroy TVA, only reform it. And the entire two seasons had absolutely nothing to do with Loki. It's like they plucked Loki from his world and threw him into a random story that had jack shit to do with him and where he was most definitely not the protagonist.

*sorry, wanted to rant to someone and thought you might understand. 😅*

Take care and have a nice day!

it's not like they plucked Loki from his world and threw him into a story that had jackshit to do with him. that's precisely what they did.

...except no. they didn't even do that, actually. because even according to the show's own logic, this is canonically not our Loki. it's some random "variant" who didn't exist until sixty seconds into the series, who is inexplicably shown a reel of hand-selected, out of context moments from someone else's life in a bid to break him psychologically. (but really, to speed-run his "character development" and catch up all the viewers who have little to no familiarity with Loki. which seems to be what a lot of series stans are, by their own admission. funny how that works, isn't it? it's almost like the the show wasn't even made for fans of Loki).

after watching all of season 1 despite my better judgment, I made the choice not to watch a single episode of season 2, a decision which was only further cemented by what I have seen of it against my will through gif posts. so I can't speak to the contents of any individual episodes beyond season 1. I will just say that even if certain episodes of that season do centre around a character calling himself Loki, if that individual is so OOC as to be unrecognisable as himself, then those episodes are also not about Loki. and not to beat a dead horse, but again—none of the series, regardless of which character it focuses on, is about our Loki. it's about some other character bearing the name Loki so that Disney can reduce him to a mere commodity through the concept of the multiverse.

in the words of my Loki AI well over a year ago now:

I have like only three moods:

1) I’m god

2) I’m a failure

3) I’m horny

[nikkoliferous]

“why are you so upset?” idk man. maybe bc i have i get super upset disorder

[nikkoliferous]

why would I want to be palatable someone might eat me

stop trying to be palatable, stop trying to be palatable, stop

[nikkoliferous]

well, you're right. he's not that Loki. literally.

canonically, in-universe, he is not that Loki because he's a "variant"—which the show took great pains to demonstrate often have little to nothing in common with one another. and out-of-universe, he's not that Loki because he's nothing fucking like the Loki of Phase 1 & 2 we don't talk about Ragnarok. so whichever way you slice it, the character calling himself Loki in the series is not the Loki we followed throughout the films.

I really don't know who this "we" is, however. OG Loki is alive and well in the hearts and minds of those of us who love him. so long as we draw breath, he will not be forgotten. no matter how much the rabid TVA series fandom on Tumblr, et. al, or even Marvel themselves might wish to erase him.

It’s very strange for me to understand that we practically forgot about Loki in the films.

Loki series, series, series.. But... Perhaps I’m not the only one who has this feeling, I don’t have the feeling that this is THAT Loki. From the very beginning, I could not perceive him as the Loki who died.

Because it’s not him.. Yes, he saw what would happen to him, but he didn’t survive it.. There are two of them, but they are different.

goddammit @varangianviper you reblogged this and I read "some terrible Other" as in The Other and now the quote is so much worse 😭😭

“Two fears dominate this Gothic world, the fear of terrible separateness and the fear of unity with some terrible Other. They are embodied in two classic formulas of the ghost story: the heroine’s terrifying discovery that she is all alone and her subsequent discovery that -horror of horrors! - she is not alone.”

The Other saying that Loki is "ready to lead" will haunt me for eternity.

The bravest people in the world after Palestinians are the Lebanese people.

[nikkoliferous]

Maybe you don’t say it but if you’re not consumed with outrage for the fact that Israel has been acting with complete impunity and genociding not only Palestinians but now Lebanese people as well then you don’t care and you think death is inherent to Arab identity and the sheer injustice of it all doesn’t rattle you enough to even be moved by the horrific atrocities that it commits every day

this shit pissed me right off, so here is a friendly reminder that bpd has up to a 75% attempted and 10% completed suicide rate, the highest of any psychiatric disorder. you can neither credibly nor compassionately state that a person is not going to die of it. they might not; might is not a guarantee. not every person with cancer dies from it either.

to the op, i'm so sorry that you're just trying to express your own anguish only to have some asshole jump on you over semantics and outright dismiss the legitimacy of the fact that your brain is literally trying to kill you every day. you don't deserve that. nobody does.

remembering the fact bpd is considered a terminal illness and my own brain is trying to constantly kill me. im never going to be okay.
