big fan of shakespeare villains who step onto the stage and immediately announce “I am here and I am evil. I am here to do mischief.” and then that’s exactly what they do for the next two hours. no other motive is ever explained. at the end they fail. kings

I know that there wasn’t time, and I’m grateful that by S3 Black Sails was a show that could deftly use, but didn’t feel it NEEDED sex scenes to keep the audience engaged.
But man…Max and Anne in the cave, dividing the chest of black pearls. Agreeing through their silent heartbreak that they wanted fundamentally different things from their lives, and that they needed to end things with each other before it was too painful. The scene that could have been. Anne above in the beam of light, her hat and her long ragged hair hiding her face, the shadowy feral thing we met in the beginning except that now and then the moon hits her eyes and we see that they are full of tears. And Max, lying back on a bed of wealth beyond the imagining of the little girl she once was, and it is cold and hard and uncomfortable and nothing like the soft bed she made for the three of them, but her eyes are dry and full only of Anne, and her hair spread out in the moonlight is full of pearls.
"i didn't like it" and "I think it wasn't well written" are different. i can personally dislike things that are not bad and i am being so brave about it

Sometimes I wish we would start calling out the performative radicalism on this site for the poser bullshit it is. "Remember, it's always morally correct to kill a cop!" "Don't forget to firebomb your local government office!" "Wow, it sure would be a shame if these instructions on how to make a molotov cocktail got spread around!"
Okay. But you're not killing cops or firebombing government offices. You are posting on a dying microblogging website to a carefully-curated echo chamber that has radicalized itself into thinking that taking the absolute most extreme position on any subject is praxis but that anyone discussing the most practical way to effect actual change is your sworn enemy. You do not have the street cred OR the activist cred to be talking about killing cops, babe.
You can’t deserve a person’s love. You’ll drive yourself crazy thinking like that. They either love you, or they don’t. That doesn’t mean you weren’t good enough for them to love you, because love isn’t something you earn by being good enough. It isn’t something that can be quantified or doled out. Don’t blame yourself for not being loved how you need to, just teach yourself how to look for love where love lives.
