#and she doesnt deserve the hate

[ecsta-zi]

I've been a little mermaid fan since infancy

I had one consistent thing in my life that has followed me from infancy all the way to adulthood. That is my love for the little mermaid. Every single household item you can think of it is Little mermaid theme I have tubs of Little mermaid collectibles because every tiny little mermaid themed thing my mom found she bought for me I have a Hallmark ornament from every single year since I was a child of The Little mermaid. My transition from adolescence to childhood is very similar to Ariel's story. I even have a tattoo of her on my arm.

Ariel from The Little mermaid was my Disney princess that I have loved unconditionally my entire life.

Speaking of entire lives I have waited for the live action remake of The Little mermaid my entire life. I have patiently watched Disney make every live remake of every popular Disney classic out there except The Little mermaid. Now that there is a possibility for me to finally see The Little mermaid in live action it turns out to be a huge controversial issue. Just breaks my heart.

Imagine being so excited and waiting your whole life for something just to see all of the nasty things that people have been saying and the nasty things that people have been making about it.

Racist.

I will judge this movie like I judge every movie. I will judge the actress on her ability to not only sing but to portray Ariel and her story correctly. I will be critiquing the amount of energy and CGI work they've put into this movie. I will pay attention to dialogue and I will pay attention to the details of the movie that I would for every movie.

If you're a little mermaid fan who is so devastated over the fact that the lead character is black you were never a Little mermaid fan in the first place.

If you were a real fan you would know that there are numerous mermaids that have melanin. I have watched all the movies and have seen the show there are mermaids of color.

The argument "that mermaids can't be black because there's no sun underwater so therefore they can't have melanin" is the most dumbest excuse I've heard

The most rational one I heard is oh she's Danish it's based on a Danish story. I personally don't give a fuck it is not the end of the world to me. I just want to see the movie I've waited my whole life for.

I thought it was common knowledge but yes the sun does reach underwater. Another thing is if you watched The Little mermaid all of their movies including the show you would understand that they are up at the surface a lot. The story behind Ariel's mother's death proves the fact that mermaids like to hang up on the surface sit on rocks and sunbathe that is how Ariel's mother got caught and killed. So how many times have we seen Ariel hopping up on rocks and shit and going up to the surface and how many mermaids are up at the surface. Point is mermaids get sun bro. Therefore the possibility of there being a dark-skinned mermaid out there makes sense.

But we're speaking fictionally here: but if you want to get down to facts- if mermaids were real they would look nothing like Us they would not have half human skin half fishtail... they would have reptilian like skin everywhere. They wouldn't have hair they wouldn't even have the same eyes as us.

I'll be more than happy to elaborate more on this when I'm not tired and not fighting through my sleep meds

So do a us all a favor and shut the fuck up. Nobody cares that you're not going to watch the movie we will do just fine without you.

okay seriously why are people still (at all actually) hating on jodie whittaker

like i just saw a rly sweet interview clip where she's talking about how she's so excited for the 60th and she has no idea what's happening in it and half the comments are shit like "she's the reason i stopped watching the show" "wish i could just delete her era"

like ??? let her exist??? if you didn't like her seasons you don't have to talk about them but there's no need to say shit like that she doesn't deserve it

SHE DESERVES ALL THE LOVE AND HUGS AND CUDDLES IN THE WORLD

[vultures-and-scavengers]

there's so many ~rules~ around fancy dinners, the courses, the silver you use, names for foods you might never have heard, and i imagine its far worse in orlais, where everything is over the top and meant to be seen and judged.

and josephine and leliana can navigate that fine, and depending on the inquisitor (especially trevelyans), i imagine they can handle themselves.

which leaves the last member of the leadership quartet, who spent the first 13 years of his life eating rural ferelden fare and then spent the next 16-17 years likely eating in mess halls between duties.

and how do you then represent the inquisition in a world where you are the outsider and everything about the world you are stepping foot in is meant to keep you and other commoners out? when this world is the one that plays with the lives of commoners like toys?

making staci go bald and then later revealing she worked at a hair salon and made people sure they looked beautiful was DIABOLICAL

It'd kind of weird how..Persephone has a closer relationship to Hera than her own mother like 🤨

Demeter literally gave you everything you could ever want, she just didn't want your dumbass running around with the Olympians FOR GOOD REASON?? (And low and behold as soon as she left the Mortal Realm everything went shitty and bad things immediately happened to her 😶)

Like..you wanted MALE god friends so bad?? Cuz ig Hermes wasn't enough?? All the nymphs, Athena, Hestia and Artemis weren't enough?? Fucking weird.

Like I'd get it if it was about hee wanting to go to school but she only did that for like one WEEK or less, before she pussied out and got distracted by Hades and all his riches.

Demeter should be disappointed that she put so much effort into Persephone only for her to become this ungrateful, spoiled, tantrum throwing, sugar baby. Like holy shit--

She was raised around nymphs but she takes every chance to terrorize them, but let a God actually insult her and she just grumbles and pouts and let's Hades deal with it. (Unless it's Zeus for some reason?? She has no issue getting bold with the literal king.)

Like her act of Wrath was because of her two nymph friends dying and yet..she clearly doesn't care about nymphs. Or anyone in the Mortal Realm for that matter.

(Also.. she doesn't seem to like Hermes or Artemis for that matter either, easily replacing them with Eros and Hades, despite Hermes being her first male friend and Artemis LETTING HER STAY IN HER HOUSE. Also..Eros got to ealk her down the isle.and not of her nymph friends were there except for Daphne?? What the hell.

my toxic trait is thinking jude will somehow see the lost letters from cardan (lady asha burned each and every one of them, each and every time)

[fleshandwires]

Everytime Love in Paradise starts I begin to sob for what’s to come

[erenfox]

you know what breaks my heart the most?

seeing sylvie hate in the sylvie/sylki tag

or if not hate, just straight up passive-aggressiveness and praises abt l0kius

in the, lemme remind you, sylvie/sylki tag

[witchykale]

okay i need to talk about what i think is the most wtf thing in MID that nobody brings up for some reason

that scene in the haunted maze where steve is breaking up with lorelai and avas watching like “wow this guys an ASSHOLE am i right” so she KNOCKS HIM OUT and just LETS LEIF BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF HIM???

like, it would’ve been different if he actually was being an asshole but like. he wasnt. he was actually being incredibly reasonable and telling her that he just didnt think it was going to work out

and to add context: steve was kind of a dick for most of the series. he talked about ava behind her back and disregarded lorelai’s feelings a few times. but it wasn’t like he was straight up abusive; its pretty obvious that him and lorelai are both young and got in petty arguments because they’re both immature

but like the one time he really ISNT an asshole is when hes breaking up with her and its like?? WHY did ava do that??? even when i was like.. 13 watching it for the first time i thought that shit was weird lmao

idk as someone who supposedly “should” relate to blossomfall because both of my brothers are diagnosed autistic while i’m not and they got more attention than me because of that. (which tbf is a much more nuanced situation bc im actually disabled too) i never saw her as anything more than an utterly unpleasant and meanspirited character because the narrative is so disinterested in briarlight’s feelings on the matter and just cares about how disabled people ruin families or whatever

[foolbo]

audrey rose they could never make me hate you

[seoafin]

you're thinking of gojo im thinking of shoko and megumi
