#now to tag everything

[wanderingmind867]

Sometimes (whether true or not), I get an indignant anger and depressed feeling, thinking about the cynicism of modern culture. When characters like batman are written as dark and violent, and when money rules all, and when everything is about meanspirited comedy instead of simple love and respect. Where'a the optimism we desperately need? I don't know. Maybe it's everywhere and i'm just missing it. But it more or less feels like innocence dies more and more each year. And by the gods, it should not be this way. I should not be having to get optimism and hope from almost exclusively old tv shows and old music (with some exceptions, like a good majority of Bob's Burgers). But I swear...either i'm 20 and pining for ages i never knew (which could be possible), or i'm depressed and reading cynicism and darkness into everything, but I hate it. We need hope and light and beauty. We need something to make us feel life is worth living. Even if that thing is merely a beautiful blue sky with bright green grass. We just need these things.

This is why characters like Superman and Wonder Woman need a renaissance at DC. Or even Captain Marvel/Shazam. These characters are fun, whimsical, optimistic. They can't be dark. If they're dark, then they're not Superman or Wonder Woman or Captain Marvel. These characters are the embodiment of that old school style of optimism and hope. Wonder Woman was the embodiment of compassion with strength. Captain Marvel is just a kid in an adult body. Superman and his main villain are both humanitarians, of a sort. When your villian is Lex Luthor, then you know things are almost always gonna automatically be somewhat left wing politically, while also being incredibly hopeful. Because Luthor is rich and misguided, but he's not complete evil. The man has a heart. And that alone shows faith in mankind. To have your main villain occasionally do good things...It's a sign that life is good. Life is good, and we should live it.

my favorite genre of fictional character is like "i am terrifying to almost everyone, i'm very good at killing, i can endure anything, i've become exceptionally good at playing into my reputation, and if you try to give me positive social interaction i will react with confusion and cower in a corner like an abused animal. and i may try to shoot you. but there is also a chance i may imprint on you like a feral dog receiving its first loving touch! good luck."

I was absolutely befuddled when I saw someone say they loved your Eunuch so I went on your page and saw it was your cat and I was like "oh okay that makes sense now." I must say your Faithful Eunuch is exceedingly adorable.

LOL honestly it's really funny seeing how much tumblr loves my cat bc he has that effect on people irl too, including but not limited to the vets

THE THING IS THE THING IS. is that irving and helly get each other!!! they're both fucking suicidal and that sounds ridiculous but that's exactly why irv did that! he knows helly would rather die than be used as a pawn in lumon's game and he knows that because HE FEELS THE SAME WAY! ever since the start of this season when he tried to kill himself because he saw more meaning in choosing death than continuing to serve a regime that took everything from him. for both of them at one point or another dying has been their only means of fighting back. and irv knows this. he knows what he's doing is probably going to be the last thing he ever does, and he does it anyway because helly would never forgive him if he let her be used like that. and up until his last moment his conviction never wavers. he would die just to prove they don't own him. he would die just to prove they don't own helly. or any of them. he would die to give helly another chance to fight back. I can only hope she does not squander that chance he gave his life for

I keep having fun with the concept of hare Henry x) He's not a big hare, it's just a hare-sized forge hahaha (and the horseshoes are probably for hare-sized horses or pony)
