PART 1

people talk abt riverdale all the time as an example of ridiculous television bc archie fought in world war one and then got raptured or whatever but they all really forget that once upon a time was the og. remember how runplestiltskin was also the crocodile from the captain hook story (in addition to being th beast from beauty and the beast) bc captain hook fucked his wife but they're both unjted in hatred for peter pan bc peter pan was rumplestiltskin's abusive father. And that was all established by season two

 Desperate Housewives Thoughts:

Ok so i am only in the middle of season 2 but this show has become my new obsession!!

Gaby: probably my favourite character. in my mother’s words she is at her best when she is being awful. she’s fiesty, funny and selfish but sharp. i love her little machinations and her constant plotting either to get what she wants or against Carlos. aside from her affair with John (which was super uncomfortable) i always enjoy her scenes. her fighting with that nun, and her and Carlos’s arguments are easily some of the best moments of the show. Carlos is an ass and their relationship is a trainwreck but thats what makes them so entertaining. especially when they are being awful to each other. 

Bree: funnily enough the reason i started watching this show was because i saw twitter talking about her and andrew’s turbulent relationship and it has not disappointed me so far. I love her so much more than i originally thought i would. we completely differ on politics but i can relate to how repressed she is and her discomfort with any kind of public emotion. who hasn’t turned the tap on and cried in the bathroom and then pretended it never happened. like how can you not love her? also her speech about freud not only cemented my love for her, it made me realise that i was going to really really love this show. 

Edie: what can i say? every moment she is on the screen is PURE GOLD. what other character has every been so iconic and unapologetic while casually committing arson. i also love her hidden vulnerability and the fact that she is desperate for some friendship but would die before admitting it. only complaint is that she needs to be in more scenes. they don’t make characters like her anymore.

Susan: lmao i know its really common and popular to hate on her but she she always makes me laugh. at best her clumsiness leads to funny moments and at worst she is mildly annoying. sometimes you just want to sit her down and tell her to get a grip lol.

Mary-Alice: i dont know if this was done on purpose but i love how slowly over time her tone becomes less serious and more amused by her friends antics. like she is removed from some of these emotions she had when she was alive. the longer time she is dead the more removed she thinks like human. drives home the point that she is looking in from the outside. she is dead and has become less attached to the worries and squabbles that plague the living. 

Lynette:  easily my least favourite housewife purely because everything about her life is my worst nightmare. every scene with her husband and kids raised my blood pressure. i think her family situation and life are so common in reality which tbh makes her story the most depressing imo. i like her better in s2 when she is working and her storylines don’t revolve around her family all the time.

Felicia Tillman- very cynical but i love her little monologue about about people being vultures and the fact that she gave martha’s dentures as an engagement gift to edie lol. absolutely insane thing to do.

Martha Huber- lmao what a nightmare. but i loved how her first solution for everything was to resort to blackmail lol.

Betty Applewhite- a brilliant actress who was wasted on this storyline tbh

Tom Scavo- HATE THIS MAN!!!!

hot take but i actively miss when tv shows were like 20 episodes a season. slow down. let me get to know the characters. let them do something dumb and not consequential to the plot for one fucking second i’m begging you.

Man all this talk about "GALE IS A WAR CRIMINAL" making him sound like he had this super powerful position. Like he was a general or lieutenant or something. When he was basically just a glorified intern whom the boss liked.

The fact that the "BEYONCÉ?" "I just know his dick is big" "I'm so sorry this ugly bitch would say that about you oh my god" "You are the only bitch in this house I ever respected" "Why don't you take a look at the material?" reaction pics are not only all of the same woman and all happened within the same season of a show... that's herstory.

i don't understand the recent "how often do men think of the roman empire" trend. one of the most well-known recent academic and popular historians of the roman empire is a woman, mary beard. why do this? it isn't cute or funny if you think about the implications for more than five seconds

Need a little sign taped to my forehead that says “Very busy. May burst into tears if given a simple task.”

feel like the fact that israel bombed balata refugee camp, nablus (west bank) has been unintentionally overshadowed by everything else that’s happened in the last few days (namely, israel targeting practically all of the hospitals in ghazzah, forcing evacuations and bombing several schools) but don’t think that that was something insignificant. don’t let what’s happening in the west bank go overlooked. because (as far as i know anyway) that was the first bombardment in the west bank since Oct 7th and it came amid rapidly rising settler violence, arrests (~3000 made since Oct 7th) and targeting of hospitals and medical staff in the west bank. ghazzah is the main target for now but don’t think that means the west bank isn’t facing the same threats.
