Just feel like I need to re-introduce everyone to these wholesome behind the scenes- feel free to add:
And my personal favourite:
howard and tony / tony and morgan
well written badass heroines and incredibly attractive complex villains/anti-heroes that slowly go from enemies to friends to in love are my aesthetic tbh
university is also just *rereads email wording for twenty minutes* *pdfs* *waits for bus* *lofi beats* *bounces leg* *forgets student card* *forgets laptop charger* *forgets lab coat* *refreshes email* *tupperware* *prints something* *stares at wall for ten minutes before getting out of bed* *makes tea* *waits for appointment* *daydreams on bus* *climbs stairs* *stares at google calendar* *almost gets hit by bike* *recycles*

it’s fall, ladies 🍂☕️
music should always be a space to just purely feel whether it’s joy or sadness or hope, I’m glad in the face of this pain there is a celebration reminding us all what music means
unpopular opinion but i think a lot of the things that people think are “pretentious” aren’t actually pretentious - they just require a little more effort & intentionality on the reader / viewer’s part to understand. but bc we’re so used to mass produced media and instant, consumable content, we’ve come to take for granted that knowledge & information can be instantaneously grasped, digested and absorbed without any real participation or action from us. if people were actually looking to criticise pretentiousness, they would call out the classism & racism of ivory tower intellectualism and its cultural manifestations, not whine about how “inaccessible” media that don’t treat their audience like idiots are
I think the best part of the Power Rangers movie was that the magic rock things that turned them into superheroes got rid of all their injuries, like Jason’s bad leg was instantly fixed. But Billy was still autistic after he became a superhero, which means there wasn’t anything wrong to fix and I think that’s such an important message. Power Rangers: doing shit right.
2x13: doing everything right

Ok so let’s take a minute and talk about how the three repeated pillars of Jeresa’s relationship are:
“We’re in this together.” Meaning they have each other’s back. They protect each other. They don’t have to go through any of this alone and they share that responsibility no matter what. They are partners.
“I’m not leaving.” They’re here to stay. Which for someone like Teresa who has a history of abandonment and trust issues is super important to know you have someone that’s not going to leave you. That cares enough to stick it out with them. And I bet you my entire ass, she’s also the first person that ever came back for James. This is really probably the first time either of them have someone to count on to not leave them behind no matter what. Someone that’s gonna stick it out through the struggles and the danger because they care enough to.
“You don’t have to hide from me.” Um fuck me up with this one. For James, who basically hates himself for the things he’s done and Teresa, who isolates her feelings because she can’t trust people this is big. They can be who they are. They don’t have to pretend or hide parts of themselves because their relationship is open and that’s why they can have these conversations about their fears and their insecurities and work through all their problems. They understand each other and there’s no judgement just acceptance and the shared need to move forward.
Like um excuse me, have you ever seen such a healthy, mature duo in your life? Yeah they have problems and they fight, but they work through it because it matters. I am such trash for them. This is the kind of partnership I deserve. Ugh they’re so powerful.
