The scene where Drax pets Rocket in order to comfort him after losing Groot in the first Guardians movie hits so different now after watching Vol. 3. When Drax first puts his hand on Rocket’s head, you can see him tense up, probably because most of the physical contact he has had up until that point has been followed by the infliction of pain. It also broke my heart when I realised that this was also probably the first time that Rocket had ever been patted or stroked in an affectionate way by anyone in his life 🥹

Here’s a hot take
Let’s stop vilifying or putting on a pedestal everyone in this damn show. They’re all flawed, that does not make them villains.
It’s okay. It’s okay to like Debling and still root for Polin. It’s also ok to not like him. But liking him or him with Pen does not mean you are anti Polin or whatever else. You do not have to hate or dislike lord Debling to prove your devotion to Polin. Liking both is acceptable.
It’s ok for Colin to have a sex life before Pen (emphasis on before, if not I’ll catch that boy, but I HIGHLY doubt it from mr. That’s my wife Bridgerton), it does not make him an awful person. (I hear the whole watching part and yeah we can argue about it, I don’t like it, but this whole thing seems to have taken really big proportions and we still don’t know what it actually is). BESIDES bookColin is really not a virgin so why do we have a fixation on that? Do you go around in real life judging people you meet or potential partners on how much sex they’ve had until then?
Hell it’s ok for Pen to be confused and maybe go with Debling for a while. Also let’s be honest my girl also has other problems than just those two boys. (I’m gonna make a post about this later because I’ve seen people ask: But what of Pen? How will she react?)
My point is, the season hasn’t come out yet, we don’t ACTUALLY KNOW what the season actually has in store for us. We’re getting angry from things published by unreliable sources. So let’s not vilify everyone just yet. If after the season has come out and there are issues ok, it’ll be fun, it’ll lead to a whole new series of posts.
But let’s remember that none of them are perfect and they all do questionable things, and that’s also part of what this season is about. It’s about being flawed and being human and dealing with things we might not be especially proud of, or happy with.

Best of 2023 Music #6: *NSYNC “Better Place”
Unexpected trilogies can bring unexpected results and surprises.
One of the biggest nobody saw coming when it came to Trolls 3, involved a bit of history being integrated into both the plot and reality.
Branch was unexpectedly revealed to have been part of a band with his four older brothers named BroZone. Of course creative differences in trying to make a family harmony would result in the classic break up trope we’ve seen many times before.
But at the wedding of Gristle and Bridgette band leader John Dory would come back into Branch’s life sending him Poppy and Tiny Diamond on a trip to save the other brothers from a pair of singers wanting to have their own musical experience.
The final scene would reveal one more secret as Branch was part of another group setting the stage for a reunion of the members of *NSYNC for the first time in 20 years.
And with this jam about ironically creating the perfect harmony we saw that Justin, Lance, Chris, JC, and Joey still have what we’ve seen before from them.
Time really does improve things.
SUM 22: The third Trolls film would unexpectedly bring back the members of NSYNC for a reunion and jam that served both the movie and reality quite well.

Honestly, this is for me to just say why I like him so much and what I would do for a day with him.
To all the Assassin’s Creed Fathers, especially Haytham, the man that got to see his son grow up without ever knowing he existed until that fateful day. So happy birthday to me and Happy Father’s Day to Haytham Kenway (my birthday is the same day as Father’s Day this year and I’m 20 years old… yay…)
Haytham. I say his name in like every post I make about him or when it deals with the Kenway family, Shay, the Templars, like almost everything. But he means so much to me.
I don’t relate to him that well. He has more of a life than I will ever have and he lived it to the fullest. Even if the life he lived was short, and filled with betrayal, murder, brutality, different values and views, and even the making of someone he regrets having him become, if he was told how his life would go, from beginning to end, he would probably do it again. Because it made him see so much about the world at the time, seeing a new continent, a new colony and seeing that the land was full of people and riches and things no one dared to dream of. He would do it again to see his love once more, to see his son that he had the opportunity to fight with, and die by his hand. He’d do it to change the fate of his life. He’d stay with Ziio, raise Connor to be more of a man than he was, and, if he had the choice, he’d pull out of the Templar Order and go join the Assassins. Though, that may not be likely.
If I was there, if I was there to see him, I would want to be his childhood friend, I would play with him when no one else would, I would happily see him grow up to be a man and join the Order, but that doesn’t mean I would join myself. I would, then, go to America (I actually live here), and maybe I would see him again. I would not indulge into his love life, like I’m doing here with this blog, but I would like to see all that happens. The fights, the tears, the happy times they share. If I were to become a close friend of his, I might become friends with Ziio as well, and even help her in her dark troubles as he’s off to find his sister in the other side of the world. Right down to his last breath, I would want to be there, or at least know he’s gone. I’ll cry, of course, but I’d spend the rest of my time trying to be well, maybe even spend the rest of my days with Connor and the people in the land he’s living in.
Haytham. His accent and his walk, that’s what locked my eyes to him. His senses and attractiveness that he brings with his voice and confidence, that’s what intrigued my interest, and my love. Even his damn name. I’m such a joke. I can barely keep my mind in tact.
Today, I only wish he was here. I would like to talk to him, show him around my town in America, See how life has grown, and how life has turned chaotic. Maybe even tell him the day that it is, and him telling me what he did that day (which is the British marching from Philadelphia).
Possibly I would let him listen to music I listen to, or just classical music and we can dance together. Weird dream right? It would be fun though. And it will end with cake and tea, and me saying goodbye to him as he leaves back to his world.
