Flare, Volume 36
Dennis keeping binders about his friends always makes me so sad cuz it appears controlling while it's actually just out of pure love. To Dennis, being known by someone else is what he desperately seeks and he offers that freely to the rest of the gang.
"They ruined Britta" by what, fleshing her out? I'm so sick of this take being used anytime Britta is shown as flawed. She's an activist because she's super opinionated and she stands up for what she believes in, and that's her strength as well as her biggest flaw because she also gets caught up in her own perception of the world and fails to factor in other people's thoughts and needs (like when she paid the deaf girl to spoil Abed his book). She gets caught up in her jokes, gets caught up in her need to "treat" her friends, gets caught up in proving she's right. And sometimes she's right and she succeeds, sometimes she takes it too far and hurts people. It's her coping mechanism after having had to run away and to prove herself to everyone. She wanted, no, needed, people to see her succeed so badly, she sometimes fell into self-centeredness, even when her intentions are never malign.
So no, she didn't necessarily get ruined, it always made sense for her arc and she's a much more relatable character that way.
old iasip animation i never finished. i might at some point idk
I was trying to explain to my friend why Dennis is a teenage little girl and then I had to get more serious into why I believe his emotional development stopped at 14, so I pull out the quote and uh-
I had totally forgotten the end of that sentence, that couldn't be broken by anything but marriage.
Dennis is expecting fairytale happy ever after to save him from his trauma and break his shell like a lover's true kiss-
Like I rest my case man...
They would be fucking insane in something together
Nothing is more devastating than this. The UN World Food Program has officially suspended aid delivery to northern Gaza, citing violence and lack of safety as major reasons the aid trucks aren’t getting through. Israeli officers are liberally shooting at Palestinians who try to approach the trucks in hopes of getting even the smallest morsels of food, despite the fact that Israel has allowed only one crossing for the already woefully low numbers of aid they’re permitting entry. Reportedly this number has fallen from 140 a day in January to just 60 a day this month, and now 16% of all Gazan children under 2 are “acutely malnourished.” Meanwhile, the US vetoes a call for a ceasefire for the third fucking time. It’s so inhumane in its cruelty it’s actually shocking to see it being allowed to go on and on, and on an international level no less.
girl/girl dont like dont look
For every man in your camp, there are thousands somewhere in the West Indies living under the same yoke, chained in fields, pressed on ships, sold into indenture. When they see a sitting governor protected by His Majesty’s Navy, deposed by an alliance of pirates and slaves, how many consider joining that fight? How many thousands of men will flock to Nassau, join your ranks, and help you defend it?
