also people need to realise that 'the hunger games' is not about a 16-year old starting a revolution, it is about adults in power using children for their political games! both for better or worse!

Egotism?

Since Amazon Prime started streaming Teen Wolf again, I'm seeing a resurgence of takes that drive me crazy.

Such as this gem: "Scott demonstrates his egotism by trying to have a fluffy romance with Allison in Season 1."

I mean, I shouldn't have to explain why this take is just dumb. It must be due to either inattention, racism or misogyny. Most likely, it is a combination of all three.

A werewolf attacks Scott in the woods; another werewolf (who doesn't bother to explain that he is not the monster who bit him) suddenly says that they're family. Does Derek take the time and effort to get to know Scott and explain how his life has changed? No.

He lures Scott out into the woods on Scott's first full moon with Allison's jacket.

He breaks into Scott's house, assaults him, and threatens to kill him.

When finally forced to tell Scott about the alpha (Uncle Peter), he conceals information and says that if Scott doesn't do what he says, Scott will kill everyone he loves unless the alpha kills him first.

He also demands that Scott treat Allison as an enemy, a girl who doesn't know that werewolves exist and who was 7 to 11 years old when Derek's house burns down, because Derek was deceived by Kate, but he won't explain that to Scott, he just insists that he has the right to tell a boy he had never met three weeks ago how to live his life.

Who's the egotist again?

And we're not even talking about Peter Hale. Scott was so self-centered to spend time learning how to anchor himself so he wouldn't kill those he love or trying to fight off Peter, who threatened to turn his mother, who kidnapped Stiles, and literally mind-controlled Scott into killing his friends.

Or they talk about how Scott's desire to date a girl is somehow an insult towards Stiles, Scott's best friend, because if you have a best friend, you can never have any other friends, right? After all, Scott should have spent the majority of Season 1 taking care of Stiles's problems. What were they again?

Obviously, it was about Scott not somehow enabling Stiles's and Derek's epic romance which consists of insults, death threats, and Derek bouncing Stiles's head off a steering wheel.

I can see how Scott and Allison's romance was so cloying. They were nice to each other! They cared about each other's feelings! They did things together! So gag-worthy. Now, about the nightmare hallucinations of Scott killing Allison or Allison breaking up with Scott because he lied to her about werewolves or Allison's dad running Scott over with a car, twice or Allison shooting him with exploding flash arrows, why would we want to watch all that fluffy stuff?

I mean I suppose you could call Scott an egotist if you insist he should only exist to service the needs of white male characters like Derek and Stiles and Peter. If you want to dehumanize him enough to say that it doesn't matter that he was transformed into a werewolf against his will, beaten, blackmailed, or being physically and mentally violated; nothing should keep him from being the Hale Family minion or Stiles's servant. I mean, you can do it if you hold your nose enough to overcome the stench. But it's possible, since Scott never acted selflessly in Season 1.

Unless you count him stealing a bullet from Allison's house to help Derek not die in Magic Bullet (1x04).

Unless you count him stopping Derek from killing Deaton in Heart Monitor (1x06).

Unless you count him going to get the keys from the janitor's corpse in Night School (1x07).

Unless you count him (and Stiles) engaging in a high-speed chase to save Derek from the Argents in Wolf's Bane (1x09).

Unless you count him stealing a necklace from Allison's house to help Derek (again!) in the same episode.

Unless you count him stopping Derek from murdering Jackson in Co-Captain (1x10).

Unless you count him rescuing Derek from Kate in Code Breaker (1x12).

My, that's a lot of things you have to NOT COUNT in order to say Scott never did anything for anyone else.

It's 2025 and I can't believe I have to defend Scott from charges of egotism when these people can't even explain why a victim has to put the wants of the people who attacked him before his own wants.

Ancestors are cleaning up this week.

saw that the jukejoint was boarded up and locked at the end because stack was still inside, so i realized that he probably watched smoke die.

maybe when night came and he could come out, he went over to his brother’s body and held him. spoke to him, maybe even cursed him out for not letting him turn him. he just holds him. all night. until the sun comes up.

his dead brother in his arms. maybe that was the last time he saw his brother and the last time he saw the sun.

Ah, Elijah and Elijah, my beloveds.

Oh, okay. I see. You think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select out, oh I don’t know, that gaslight gatekeep girlboss meme, for instance, because you’re trying to tell the world that you think modern feminism has been co-opted by corporations. But what you don’t know is that that meme is not from Instagram, it's not from Twitter, it's not from Tiktok, it’s actually from Tumblr. You’re also blithely unaware of the fact that in January 2021, Tumblr user missnumber1111 posted, "today's agenda: gaslight gatekeep and most importantly girlboss." And then I think it was a-m-e-t-h-y-s-t-r-o-s-e, wasn’t it, who reblogged it with an image of the phrase edited over a piece of "Live, Laugh, Love" wall art? And then gaslight gatekeep girlboss showed up in the feeds of eight different Twitter repost accounts. Then it filtered down through Instagram and then trickled on down into some tragic “alt side of Tiktok” where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that meme represents millions of notes and countless Tumblr users and so it’s sort of comical how you think that you’ve made a choice that exempts you from Tumblr when, in fact, you’re wearing the meme that was selected for you by the people in this room. From a pile of “stuff.”

ExCUUUUUSE ME?!?!!!??!?!?!

Interviewer: What was your favorite thing to listen to on set?

Ryan Coogler: All the characters had their own [song].... So the characters Mary and Stack they had a song, it was "Ex-Factor" by [Lauryn Hill]. And then Smoke and Annie had a Sade song called "By Your Side" (Source)

Wowowowowoow.

Wow.

Stack and Mary: https://youtu.be/r3p3G0tZunE

"It could all be so simple, but you'd rather make it hard. Loving you is like a battle and we both end up with scars." (Lyrics)

Smoke and Annie: https://youtu.be/C8QJmI_V3j4

"You think I'd leave your side baby? You know me better than that. You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees? I wouldn't do that." (Lyrics)

and another thing. Smoke's daughter would've been a problemmm, do you hear me? Smoke as a girl!dad? that little interaction with baby girl outside of the Chow's shop where he taught her how to negotiate? he spent less than 5 minutes with her and the lesson he provided in advocating for herself is the kind that lasts a lifetime. i'm sure she remembered that her whole life. Smoke as a girl dad is teaching his daughter the same things he'd teach his son (he wouldn't discriminate at all). how to negotiate. to know her worth. how to fight. shoot a gun. how to be tough in a hard world and maintain her softness in the comfy one that he'd create for her. he'd try to be stern and principled and being principled would work cause that's the kind of man he is, but stern? it wouldn't last long. she'd have him wrapped around her fingers and he wouldn't mind it at all. if you didn't know her you wouldn't understand her quick wit and her sharp tongue but once it clicked that Smoke was her daddy it would all make sense. she could be an angel or a little devil depending on how you treat her. she'd be strong willed and determined, fair but with a low tolerance for bullshit. she might even be spoiled and possibly a bit bratty cause she always got her way with her daddy but Annie would provide the balance. she'd be a safe space and provide so much nurturing, but she'd also make sure babygirl isn't spoiled "rotten". between being worldly equipped (from daddy) and spirituality equipped (from mama) she'd be a force. and don't let uncle Stack get too many days with her or take her on too many side quests once she's older cause that man wouldn't hold a damn thing back. how to hustle? check. the value of money? check. how to take up space? check. how to do anything a man can do and do it better cause women have a certain kind of ✨power✨? check. between Smoke and Stack Annie would actually be sick of it 😭
