I Haven't Listened To Chuckle Sandwhich In A Hot Minute Tbh Because Life Has Been ROUGH Recently And

The Despicable Me theme song- for some reason. I haven't watched those movies in literally YEARS 🙃🫠

ATTENTION

If you see this you are OBLIGATED to reblog w/ the song currently stuck in your head :)

So I've been seeing a lot of theories n stuff floating around bc of the new OFMD trailer and teaser. One thing I couldn't stop thinking about was that Izzy seems to be somewhat protective (or at least tolerant) of Stede in the teaser.

It seems like maybe he's training Stede to fight properly. And theory I've seen most recently is that Izzy realises how badly Ed misses and needs Stede, and so is training Stede for the sake of Ed's mental and emotional health. And while I'm all for character development, this doesn't seem completely plausible for Izzy.

All that said, here's my theory for Izzy's reasons for training Stede and actually helping him:

So I realised- assuming that Ed really had been shipwrecked and ended up stranded somewhere- the crew no longer have a captain that they truly respect. Izzy may be incredibly intimidating, but we can see how resistant to following orders the Revenge crew was when Blackbeard wasn't around, and how willing they are when Stede or Ed are the ones giving the orders.

The Crew won't listen to Izzy. Only Ed and Stede. They don't like Izzy- they don't respect him. And if Ed is absent, and Stede manages to find the rest of his crew around the same time Ed goes missing, Izzy would have really no other choice than to secede the role of captain to Stede so Stede can lead the crew and pirate well enough to find Ed again and restablish him as captain.

What's a show that you ABSOLUTELY LOVE- but you've never ACTUALLY seen the intro/title sequence to?

Read "The Ones Who Walked Away From Omelas", bc of a recommendation from someone I admire (AmericanBaron). Not that good, actually. Sad, and philosophical, and well-written- but not what I was expecting. Thoughts?

If ur having a rough end of the day like me, please enjoy my cat looking way too intelligent for how dumb (/fond) she is <3 <3 <3

Okay but THIS THIS- is why the ineffable breakup literally made my heart skip several beats in utter despair- because there was that MOMENT where the Metatron asks Aziraphale if he's ready to go/if he needs to bring anything with him- and the HESITATION PRACTICALLY SCREAMING OUT OF AZIRAPHALE as he flits his gaze and his stance and his position between looking out the window at Crowley (being closer to her, walking AWAY from the Metatron) and looking at the door to his bookshop (being closer to Heaven, walking AWAY from Crowley).

He's making a major life decision, and he KNOWS it- and there is something inside them that is screaming THIS IS THE WRONG DECISION- RUN TO CROWLEY RUN TO CROWLEY-

But he's determined- to change Heaven, to reinstate Crowley- I don't know. But she's got a plan and she's gonna stick with it because under everything she really does fight for what she wants and what she loves- I just hope it doesn't become their downfall.

tragedy enjoyers (hi) talk a lot about inevitable tragedies where the character(s) were doomed from the start, but to be honest as someone who does not believe in fate/destiny/etc. irl, the kind of tragedy that Really gets to me is the kind where you can see exactly why and how this didn’t need to happen, and you can also understand why the choices were made that made this happen, and you watch an entirely unnecessary but devastatingly predictable tragedy unfold due to a series of understandable choices

I just think this is neat T-T

Aziraphale's favorite color is yellow

Started watching the Musketeers (2014, on Prime) recently bc I had a lot of free time on a roadtrip across the US. I wasn't sure if I was gonna like it- I love it period-pieces/historical stuff, but I tend to unintentionally have a specific taste in stuff that I'll continue watching on my own time.

But I am not exaggerating when I say that I don't have the words to convey just how much I absolutely love the show.

I'll probably bullet-list my favourite bits about it some other day, but I'm watching season 1 again, and I thought i should share my favourite line from the show.

Context: a woman (Comtesse) who advocates for women's education is being put on trial bc 17th France has a toxic patriarchy, but it particularly stems from the King's advisor (played by Peter Capaldi- I know! : D ) in this show. The Queen of France comes in right as the woman is sentenced to death for "being a witch and consorting with the devil", and essentially pardons her.

Comtesse stands to leave the court, and looks the king's advisor directly in the eye.

Comtesse: I have never consorted with the Devil unti this moment. I am looking at him.

And then- completely outside of Comtesse, the king's advisor starts choking on poison lol

What's the quote from Ted Lasso?

"Teenage girls are dark, and mysterious, and dangerous."
