studying jewish history in various countries vs studying basically any other ethnic group's history in various countries
jewish history: they banned us and killed us, but only, like, once? amazing! truly awesome! go denmark! denmark is a refuge for jews! other history: they killed them? and banned them from coming in? dear god, how does anyone live there? they must be ragingly anti-[group]!

to ashes and blood by woodkid is such a cool song with that wordless chanting-sounding thing they do and also a perfect musical companion piece, both lyrically speaking and with the general feel of it, to convey 'vi what the fuck are you doing. why are you a cop. why are you trying to murder your sister to make your cop girlfriend happy and protect piltover's peace of mind that the system will never be disrupted. this isn't you. stop it.' and then she just ends up with caitlyn anyway with no resolution of the fact that that means compromising her morals and beliefs and where she comes from and also she's never going to see her sister again. caitvi might as well not have even broken up in the first place because by the end of the show vi won't stand between cait and hurting innocent people OR jinx and her crazy suicide plans. this empty shell of a person I'm meant to believe is vi would stand aside and let cait shoot her sister in the head and if she hits an innocent child too OH WELL!!!!! I hate it here

still thinking about the concept of wyll’s heroism influencing shri’iia’s decision to pursue the oathbreaker route btw it is soooo delicious to me i so love concepts where the kindness given out becomes reflected but I don’t think shri’iia is aware that he influenced her. she is not that Self Aware i fear but it’s also when you’re around someone so much that you end up adapting some of their traits. shri’iia who is currently so out of her home environment, stuck in a completely new land with new rules and surrounded by people living a different life from her, she is bound to mimic them in some way whether she is aware of it or not.

interesting to think about how constantine isn't commonly read as being the most morally upright of characters, and that's generally a fair assessment. but at the same time he can still be a surprisingly ethical character, particularly in terms of the values he holds synonymous with being a good community member.
a couple examples of (what i think are) his most consistently held values throughout the hellblazer series:
constantine feels very strongly about things like defending people's bodily autonomy and showing kindness & compassion towards society's more vulnerable demographics, especially kids & unhoused people.
he frequently & sincerely upholds the basic principles of xenia (showing hospitality towards foreigners, guests, and anyone whose fate is in your hands), and possesses a deep, innate sense of justice that he is unafraid to uphold when he feels it necessary to do so.
he personally values survival above honor but still has a healthy appreciation for people that are committed to a code,
he respects integrity more than he'd respect a good liar (even if he fucking hates you, at least you're being true to yourself; can't help it if yourself is just a prick),
and he is CONSTANTLY PLAGUED by a deeply personal sense of social responsibility to try and nip potential threats to the world, to his city, or to his friends in the bud if he thinks it might be within his capabilities to do so.
of course, it's key to note that constantine's code of ethics was also founded primarily in accordance with the principles of '70s-'80s counterculture + still largely abides by the social beliefs of the same-era punk community, and thus also includes more subjectively-judged tenets such as challenging the establishment, defying the government, protecting individual liberties, taking direct action in support of your community, putting people above possessions at every turn, and actively addressing social issues wherever / whenever you encounter them. so he's not always viewed by other characters (particularly upper-class bootlicking ones) as being particularly ethical. doesn't change the fact that constantine still adamantly maintains certain major ethical principles in accordance with the social systems he inhabits and was raised in.
#( ooc. ) OUT OF CIGS.#( character study. ) A WALKING PLAGUE OF A MAN.#don't @ me for referencing xenia si spurrier has nothing to do with this. i just love the concept#i had a very interesting twofold coincidence that led to this post (well. interesting to me probably very mundane all told)#was rereading hellblazer 12 and when ritchie demanded that john find him a body to hop into? john's response was verbatim:#'a body? jesus mate. hang about. don't you think there might be a question of ethics here?'#and i giggled at that a little bc john constantine? ethics? come on now. but it made sense given his own struggles w/ autonomy#but then i saw a post later on that read 'let's do something unethical together. just for fun' and thought it was silly#and when i went to reblog it for john i stopped and thought about it and realized. no he wouldn't find that very fun actually#cue rabbit hole into morality vs ethics with a side jaunt into what the hell is moral nihilism#plus a dash of key recurring themes in hellblazer (bodily autonomy. standing up to injustice. compassion towards the vulnerable.)#i may be getting ahead of myself but i now think compounding morality + ethics into a uniform behavioral monolith#or else mistaking one for the other. Might Be a very big reason why john gets SO mischaracterized in later dc adaptations#like yes! he often has to resort to behavior / making decisions that are (to us) Obviously Morally Wrong in order to save the world#sacrificing gary lester to a demon. leaving ritchie trapped in a computer. lying to get baron winters' help against the brujeria.#and yes! that Morally Wrong behavior can and does involve causing harm to the people around him (albeit usually inadvertently)#Doesn't! Mean! He Has! No Sense! of Decency! or Empathy! or Right! or Wrong! just because he Had to Resort to an Immoral Act!#there were still Valid or at least Understandable Ethical Reasons behind ALL THREE EXAMPLES i just listed above!!!#that's why two of those examples are GUT-WRENCHING!! bc he betrayed his moral beliefs in support of his ethical principles!!#i can punch someone in the face and still feel compelled by my cultural norms to help a little old lady cross the street right after!!#upon reflection: whoa nelly. i fear i am getting needlessly heated over this. Anyways#if you've followed me for a bit you're already aware of how i feel about the continued mischaracterization of constantine in media lmao#i've said my piece. i've done my morality and ethics homework. i can rest now#and i'll say upfront that it would be Extremely funny if i wrote all this out + later find out i've been mixing up the two. bc it would be

They have already tried to pull this "she slept her way to the top" bullshit on Kamala Harris. And it will only become worse and more prevalent.
Please remember, when someone says that about a woman, what they deeply believe, and have absolutely no problems with, is that men in power withheld promotions from women unless they were given sexual favors.
But they may not think that is what they believe. What they think they believe is that the woman they are insulting is some kind of sexual predator, who could use the act of intercourse as a magical way to enslave men. So that these poor men, even though they are grown ass adults, just become slobbering fools at the suggestion of sex. They cannot be blamed for anything because obviously they are just perpetual bags of hormones in heat, but without the morals. So a woman could ask for anything, blank checks, blank contracts, any position they want in an organization, and the man would have no choice but to give it to her, because SEX! The man can't be held responsible for taking advantage of a power dynamic, or betraying a possible spouse and children, because what else could they possibly do when they are offered sex?
Understand that when someone uses the insult of "she slept her way to the top" they believe one of the above to be absolutely true, and absolutely normal. That is the kind of person you are dealing with.

Nooooo nobody gets it this isn’t about Cassian becoming a rebel hero (that’s rogue one) this is about Cassian losing his agency until he’s nothing more than a weapon for the rebellion to use at will (how he starts Rogue One)
#it’s not his choice it’s not something he’s dedicated to as a person because he IS a person still of some sort#or he’s trying to become a person again#and the whole point is war is dehumanizing war WILL kill you one way or another if you let it#Luthen sacrifices all his human decency and becomes something frighteningly close to a monster#vel. Bix. Cassian. even syril. they are being turned in to tools to sacrifice#they are being shaped into sacrifices#no one around. no other way. choices continually taken from them#that’s the POINT#you don’t get to choose!! you only get to choose to fight!!!#and that’s WHY Jyn is so important. she rolls up to a terribly Luthen-esque operation and is like guys we have a CHOICE#and I’m about to make some!!#and Cassian goes wait fr???#it’s nuanced tho! because he *cant* just run away. that can’t be his choice#but it’s the only thing he can choose in situations where the fighting means following#so he thinks. and yet. he’s got to have the complete selflessness and he’s got to choose it#by rogue one he’s a DROID. he’s got K2 and tbh K2 is now voicing all the things Andor Cassian would say#but now he’s. more machine than the machine.#he’s a weapon. the droid on the other hand. has become human#it’s HIM#anyways!! it’s about being turned into a weapon#and the balance between fighting what you hate and saving what you love#he wants to save Bix but Bix understandably on some level wants to fight what she hates#she wants to win. so she gives him up to that goal.#so he’s a weapon to fight what he hates too#but in the end. like the end of S1. he’ll be saving what he loves again#it’s about what would you sacrifice? and should you sacrifice that.#andor spoilers

Just read oficial translation vol1 and 2 from to rule in a Turbulent World and I'm pining horribly for the rest of the story. It's almost 3am, i have to get up at 8.3am and I'm furious the Spanish fan translation was pulled down when it's not licensed over here. Fuck it.

THEY GAVE GERMA 66 A WHOLE MAGICAL GIRL/SUPER SENTAI TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE
I’m dying. They even gave their character intros XD they really did save the proper raid suit introductions for the best possible moment.
Where’s Sanji’s tho? We can’t get this far and not have Sanji join in the family power up!!
