thinking about ed's speech at the end of 2.01 about the impossible bird and never going back to land, and about how in 2.04 the lyrics "listen, lonely seabird, you've been away from land too long" play over stede coming back to find him and them walking off together

🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

#and the contrast of stede coming back right away like he said he would vs. ed having to wait for him in 1.09!!#this show is really doing it down to the last emotionally overwhelming detail!!!!#i will shut up about all this in november okay #dollsome's deep thoughts #our flag means death #ofmd spoilers

love that they introduced Ed as this menacing and intriguing looking guy who's smoking his pipe in a dark room and speaking cryptically to his little henchman and truly personifying Blackbeard, and then proceeded to spend the rest of the season telling us that we fell for his act he's actually an adorable man who wants nothing to do with that shit he only did it cause he was bored and it looked cool like 😭

#ofmd #our flag means death #meow speaks #I spoke to someone who started watching the show #and Ed comes up and she's like ~ that's your guy right?#well first of all yes lmao #but second like just your wait he's gonna burrow his way into your heart ✌️🥲#and I remembered that yep the first time I watched the show #it was the perfect intro and I didn't know what to expect from him #cause I had no idea who taika was?#and look at me now barely alive

litany of the martyrs (click for better resolution!)

#at some point i wanted to make an illustration for each character but in retrospect maybe each is multiple song-coded..#drew the sketch for a quincy thing after a chat with a mutual reminded me this song existed dfsghjkl and then spent weeks rendering this #quincy cynthius martin #adamandi #i'm finally done with this! the saints especially were joys to paint and the halo a menace.... this has been the most ambitious one so far.#but it also took quite long because i only worked on it <engages with quincy> when mentally okay to deal with the themes. i'm not religious #but i do identify with the irrational(?ish) guilt + family legacy + academic achievement + disregard for self. also more complex thoughts #about love [but depsite quincent being a large part of quincy's character this piece deals with mostly the Rest of it. so another time..]#anyways! in the original sketch- the saints had heads bent towards quincy so the halo spikes pointed at him. but this worked better! halos #of the saints implying/creating one for quincy was a concept from the start though. in the show they don't touch him directly here but #differences in mediums i think- i don't have time in an image to craft a narrative so everything has to be happening. also artistic liberty #misc inspiration for this includes stained glass windows. i might have maybe misinterpreted the saint costume but i think i logic-ed it out #as the cloth part following a nun's habit w the hood. and then halo above. the material is also more transparent originally but i had. um.#too much fun painting fabric folds.. if you look closely you can see the basis of faces though behind the cloth; but only the vague shapes #because smth obscurity + inhumanness// cassian is the only one i gave a mouth though. that stems from melliot's post about the saints and #st cassian as spokesperson (<- did research teehee!) that's also how i found out which costume = which saint. speaking of which.#left to right: 'st lucy take my hand' // 'st lawrence give me strength' (presses quincy forward; but hand on shoulder connotates guidance)#/'st cassian help me smile' (quincy's mouth is btwn a grimace and a smile; tilts up at side. also no direct touch bc added insidiousness.)#//'st jude [...] i hope your causes burn' (jude's hand is in two places to show movement- nearing the flame and then snatching back; burnt)#other notes: at the midst of the flame the core is shaped like a human heart /the saints and their wax are all melting like the candle for #fun visual effect and also this way they are even less tangible <real>. perks of painting as a medium i guess. // also insp from icarus?#wax and burning imagery; looking at the halo and rays as parallel to sun that burns. too close to the sun; melting; hurting; hurtling //#candles at bottom are a nod to the frankly gorgeous set// also the entire composition kind of stems from the lyric <what use is a candle if #both ends aren't burning>; the two sides between the concepts of catholic guilt and academic perfection that spur quincy #the halo above (saints and guilt; litanyofthemartyrs) and the 'halo' below (academic papers; insp from choreo for perfect at school)#the papers were originally supposed to be more glowy. but i like the idea of it now being a reflection of how quincy's priorities shift #also of note is that <candle> in centre = quincy; w burning candle + aforementioned heart in flame -> most human; idea of love + passion #last thoughts: kneeling + hands close tgt = prayer //wax dripping onto the red As make an effect that looks like blood. because i like #hiding that within the adamandi pieces :OO continuity!! // i've run out of tags but yeah! had fun with this one! every so often i go a #little insane in making art and the final result astounds even me. ngl i'm quite proud of this one. pretty colours <3333

literally tell me again how i erase ed’s flaws and minimize the harm he caused. tell me how i don’t appreciate this character fully, how i don’t acknowledge the things he’s done wrong.

“ed was violent and scary and it traumatized the crew” doesn’t even scratch the surface. i am not the one minimizing ed’s actions.

#txt #mine #og #edward teach #if this post is in the izcourse tag no it isnt u just dont know how to use tumblr #ofmd fandom crit #context is my long ass post right below this one #anyway ed traumatized the fuck out of the crew and the show wants you to have sympathy for him anyway #sorry some of y’all can’t manage that

In the end it's Choso's death that snapped him completely.

And putting his flashback with that gentle smile, between two expressions of Yuuji, that damn matching scars across their noses...That single tear at the corner of Yuuji's eye...foul play. Totally foul play.

I'm sad again.

#jujutsu kaisen #jjk 261 #choso #yuji itadori #itadori yuuji #im so bitter that yuuji's highlight being stolen again right at the peak of him turning into merciless monster but i cant even get mad cz #the one who showed up is Yuuta and Gojo...the former mc and the face of jjk...soo #its frustrating #suddenly Yuuji just got ko-ed with a knock like that???#but yeah it was very dangerous i get it #but like....cmon man Cb #Choso didnt give his life so Yuuji can be put down by that single blow hes supposed to finally take the limelight but wtf was that

On one hand,

Yakumo getting an event SR means that he's... somehow popular enough to boost income? Which.. good for him! more yaku content!

On the other hand,

*YANKS HIM BY THE COLLAR AND BEAMS MY RAGE DIRECTLY INTO HIS EYE HOLES* why are you here. I was going to have a perfectly fine fun time with ONLY reiblade the sequel (silly version). I was excited that goofy killer sharkdroid would at l a s t get his time to shine after the mASSIVE wait *SHAKES HIM. THE STUPID LITTLE BELL ON HIS COLLAR JINGLES* you should not be here. I willGRAB your lack of hips and debone u like a trout

#do i look like a whale to you #u are illegal right now.#u cannot. should not. be here.#not so u can spring another SSR on me in who knows what sudden freaky timeline the devs are on #wait. a yakumo sr showed up before an ed one? how is this possible #YOU DEFY LOGIC I'M GOING TO *SHAKES HIM SOME MORE*

Moral Orel doesn't seem 100% like a show I'd feel seen in if you don't know me but then I remember the episode with the special ed kids and underneath the usual satire on extremist bible belt religion it reminds me WAY too much of how actual special ed departments treated me and other kids growing up.

Like the writers must HAVE BEEN THERE IN LIFE, man. I'd kill to sit down with Dino Stamatopoulos and find out what the fuck inspired him and the other writing staff that day.

#husbandothings #moral orel #bonus fun tag rant? bonus fun tag rant...apparently #in those departments you are immediately written off as a tragic forever toddler by at least 50% of the staff regardless of your disability #there's good ones but the bad ones bring the fun spicy trauma #it doesn't matter how smart you actually are you gotta draw the sad face on that boy on the comic sans worksheet at the age of 15 #in your free lesson spaces that you got because of reasons #if someone tells me they're a teaching assistant or have “qualifications” in autism and special needs development i immediately distrust #because I have never met a neurotypical person with those qualifications who knows how to treat kids like humans especially autistic kids #funniest part? I was mostly in the special ed department because of my hearing and not totally my undiagnosed autism #and a little because of wonky emotional development from get this...a freaking religious school #like i see adults in the show and i see the headteacher who tried to tell my parents i should forgive the bullies because jesus would #even though the truth is way more nuanced but he just wanted to wash his hands of it #it's funnier than it should be because that teacher would fit right in to this show for that and additional reasons I won't state here #my family were atheists but thought the school would be good #the weird thing is at that time as a little kid I liked the idea of believing in god but nothing that happened proved Him to me #and moral orel hits because it resonates with the fact i genuinely believe religion can do good and it's all about the people #the ones who want to use that faith for good in the world and surviving rough crap and not to do things that would make jesus flip tables #that has stuck with me for over a decade as has the people who felt the show reinforced their christianity #but anyway

my most insane belief is that the isabella arc could have worked if gotham treated it like old testament levels of karma for edward's actions against kristen and old testament levels of karma for oswald's gluttony of power and riches

#gotham #gotham fox #gotham 2014 #nygmobblepot #edward nygma #gotham edward nygma #gotham isabella #i dont even think isabellas actions should be changed i think eds reaction to them should change #like you mean to tell me a man with pyschosis is perfectly fine after having sex with a woman dressing up as his dead gf? yeah right #that man cant consent and you know it show!#accidentally entering a abusive relationship only to have someone he cared for try to maniuplate him into dating him after it is done #i do not tihkn oswald was the only one wrong here but #do u get my vision its like its happening all over again its nightmarish almost

I have successfully boiled my problem with most of the izzy reads that i hate down to a sentence:

he's not sexually repressed, he's emotionally repressed.

#they are different and ihave paragraphs and paragraphs of thoughts on it #but dressing like a leather daddy and holding your hand over an open flame and literally everything else he does #is not the behavior of a man who doesn't know or realize what gets him going #he's not closeted. he's not homophobic. he thinks having Any Positive Emotion not related to violence makes you vulnerable #[and he's right for his experience and circumstance but i won't touch that now]#his conflict is emotional; ed's ability to captain isn't compromised by his being attracted to a man. it's compromised by Having Feelings.#their ability to survive a world that wants them dead isn't compromised by either of them being queer; it's compromised by being SOFT #by having WEAK SPOTS #pets are a weak spot. lovers are a weak spot. get rid of them to stay safe. not out of spite.#not out of a disdain for those relationships themselves. out of disdain for what Feelings Do To You #idk man maybe i am simply emphatic about this nuance because i get—more than I would like—the impulse to be SAFE #even at the cost of your self and some chances at being happier #he doesn't even care that lucius is gay in the deck scene and i'd go so far as to say he doesn't really care that lucius is slutty #insofar as. like. he doesn't know him and pete are open. from a monogamy-normative perspective it's a betrayal.#your partner being unfaithful when you expect them To Be is ALSO A THING THAT CAN GET YOU KILLED #like idk i just. i think people don't get how much of him is about safety?#and i know the show's created this atmosphere of 'homophobia isn't a real threat'#but they haven't removed the violence and danger crews other than stede face for Other Reasons #so. he's very security-driven. and that's why he speaks to me.#and it's annoying that people just make 'lol izzy's closeted' 'peak homophobic gay' jokes instead of. engaging. with the shit izzy AND ED #went through to make them emotionally closed off the way they are #THE SENTENCE IS A SENTENCE BUT THE EXPLANATION SURE ISNT

so wait, since i was just reminded of the recorder thing donna talked about in the giggle, i now have a question for uk ppl: do yall learn the recorder in school? like in a music class? and like how much do yall have music class over there?

#this is a very interesting topic for me as a music educator from the us #ik a guy from ireland and he said there was no music class in schools for him and like not the same country BUT same island #(as northern ireland. not the others in the uk but still)#and its so wild and fascinating music education is a fascinating field and the way we do it in the us seems to be largely vvv unique to us #for clarification on how things are different so ppl have a better idea on how to answer my question lol:#in the us music class is standard in elementary schools and most places have general music until abt 5th/6th grade (year 6/7)#(general music = basics- music games learn recorder SOME notation-reading; often classroom instruments eg boomwhackers claves maracas #orff instruments if you're lucky/from a school district that isnt poor. also some world music)#its less standardized after that and not every school will have music after middle school but concert bands and choirs are both huge here #choirs start right on the heels of general music classes (sometimes start earlier + students elect to be in choir instead of general music)#bands USUALLY start in 4th grade (year 5) but sometimes can be later 5th/6th (year 6/7) or even 7th (year 8) (WAY less common)#depends on the state generally 4th is most common i think (choirs start at around the same time i think so probs 4th but choir isnt my area #orchestras are weird bc theyre a lot less common but can commonly start younger bc of one of the big approaches to music ed (suzuki method)#so like maybe 3rd grade (year 4) maybe 4th w/ band (year 5) but i have a friend who teaches at a private school #& said they have 1st/2nd graders (year 2/3)!! orchestra is also not my area though #also marching bands: vv common! usually just in hs (starting 9th grade / year 10) bc it supports the football team at games #but starting in 8th grade (year 9) is also common (sometimes even 7th / year 8)#theres two different styles: collegiate/show band and competition. former is very rah rah pop music etc; competition is more abstract #show bands are clearly designed to entertain whereas competition is designed to be more impressive and tell a story #so more impact moments abstract shapes/lines on the field and has movements - opener ballad closer (fast-slow-fast)

ughhhh this is so annoying i can't remember what lucius's actual job at the gcpd was in gotham so i google it and his wiki page literally. "he quit working at wayne enterprises bc it was bad there and now he works at the police :)" and doesn't elaborate, it ends there, the wiki doesn't care about him, the show doesn't care about him, what else is left

#like they hired him as some kind of consultant right? what was his actual job?#bc for some reason i thought he actually took a position similar to... ed in forensics or leslie as the M.E.#and he serves this purpose like functionally in the show but not like... that's not his job. right?

1) bisexual as fuck

2) horny as fuck
