Hes Not - Tumblr Posts
Call the Midwife the historical drama that provides an endless resource relating to our 21st century reality.
Apologies for reusing this sequence, but I am also sorry it is still relevant.
It's hard to fall in love with someone that's not a five star+
He's just a silly poet
I don’t want to say it will look like that but
I really said that few times before and it looked like that oops 😐 like man you can hate Quackity all you wish, but making Tubbo and Ranboo victims of this situations if it escalates (like few donos intended) is just so weird to me
if it escalates it’s going to be 100% of their fault and nobody else
The actual happiness I felt when Blake implied to Sunshine that he was going to off himself just cured my depression.
And then some bitch sovereign pulled him out of the river and now I'm back to hating my life again.
another thing I dislike is how everyone talks about kevins exy obsession throughout the series.
it's always mocked or used to just take a dig at him yet they don't try to understand where the deep rooted obsession has come from.
kevin is obsessed with exy for the same reason neil is. it is all kevin has (or had).
kevin was praised, for his exy. kevin was noticed, for his exy. kevin is alive, for his exy. kevin is connected to his mother, through exy.
exy is the only safe thing in his life apart from alcohol. something that hasn't hurt him or caused him fear.
when he plays, he's free. he's safe under the light of the court. he has a true propose when he has that exy stick in his hand.
it gives him a reason to try. gives him a reason to prove himself.
of course, he's obsessed with it! it's his only real security blanket!

me at the Wedding Impossible tag:
It's strange how hated Loghain is in the fandom but how loved Cullen is.
Loving Loghain elicits disgust from most people, while loving Cullen is generally accepted. Even though both of them have committed horrendous crimes. But the difference is that Cullen is constantly coddled by the fans and the devs.
Whereas Loghain is not, you can give him a punishment that fits his crimes. The "best" case scenario for him is getting forcefully conscripted into the Grey Wardens and getting shipped off to Orlais, of all places. The "worst" - well, you get to literally behead him, in front of everyone attending the Landsmeet and no one will oppose you except Anora who just got sprayed by a gallon of her father's blood.
Meanwhile you can't even be particularly rude to Cullen, let alone call him out on his bullshit. And he is never truly faced with consequences for his genuinely abhorrent actions. Also the "redemption" he gets is frankly nonexistent.
Yeah Loghain was a main villain...but so was Cullen...?? Did his fans collectively forget about that?
Yeah Cullen has a tragic backstory...but so does Loghain? Does that excuse their actions? No, but a whole lot of Cullen fans try to bring all that into a conversation when someone criticises their fave.
So allow me a similar luxury. Not to excuse Loghain's actions of course but to get on even footing with everyone trying to wave away Cullen's crimes via invoking the power of a tragic backstory:
During the Orlesian invasion Loghain's family lost their farm due to increasing taxes, essentially making them homeless.
The resistance they put up was futile in the face of the Orlesian soldiers who easily overpowered them and subsequently made Gareth and Loghain watch them violate Loghain's mother before brutally murdering her.
After fleeing Oswin, they were on the run until Maric unknowingly lead the Orlesians into their camp. Loghain ran away with him, however to buy them time, amongst others Gareth sacrificed himself.
Loghain had no siblings and both his parents were dead at this point.
He had that whole situationship with Rowan that he could not realistically pursue in good conscience as she was betrothed to Maric. This put a strain on Loghain's relationship with them both.
In 9:25 Dragon, Maric disappeared. Loghain tirelessly searched for his closest friend for two years.
Shortly after, in 9:28 Dragon, Loghain also lost Celia, his wife.
I'd say he lived around 80% of his life in utter misery. Not that it nullifies anything vile he has done but since so many people love to bring up Cullen's past while defending him...
So let's not be hypocritical.
Either be hellbent on hating Cullen too- or have mercy for Loghain as well.
