I LIKE IT. SLAP IT ON A T-SHIRT.

but then he started singing and the dancing began and I realized that he wasn’t meant to be a joke at all. This is the most open and happy we’ve ever seen Izzy and the show treated it that way. Not mocking him but instead celebrating this moment.

When we talk about queer representation it’s usually just focused on queer relationships, but what I love about this episode is it shows other sides of being queer. That moment where Izzy saw Wee John doing his makeup and had a realization that he wanted that too? That is what being queer means to me. The crew singing along and cheering for him? That is what being apart of the queer community means to me.

Mobius: Don't worry, that devil's afraid of us. We're gonna take care of him. And we're gonna put you back where you belong.

Loki: What is this place?

Mobius: Come on!

Mobius: You do know yourself.

Loki: A villain. ( Sighs )

Mobius: That's not how I see it.

Ravonna: But Loki is an evil, lying scourge. That is the part he plays on the Sacred Timeline.

Mobius: Maybe he wants to mix it up. Sometimes you get tired of playing the same part. Is that possible? He can change?

Loki: Okay. Why are you in there sticking your neck out for me?

Mobius: I'll give you two options, and you can believe whichever one you want. A, because I see a scared little boy, shivering in the cold. And you kinda feel bad for that ice runt. Or B, I just wanna catch this guy, and I'll tell you whatever I need to tell you.

Loki: I don't need your sympathy.

Mobius: Good, 'cause I'm runnin' out of it.

Mobius: Hey! These people are scared.

Hunter D-90: They're about to die. They should be scared.

Mobius: Okay. Not of us.

Mobius: Look at me.

Hunter C-20: It's real. I wanna go home.

Mobius: We're gonna get you there. Call the TVA, let the infirmary know...

Mobius: You were right, about the TVA. You were right from the beginning. And if you wanna save her, you need to trust me. Can we do that?

Loki: Yes.

Mobius: Okay. You could be whoever, whatever you wanna be, even someone good. I mean, just in case anyone ever told you different.

What we're NOT getting is that 'slow dopamine' that's more sustainable and engaging. That's the kind we get from DOING things that take effort but are ultimately rewarding.

So like, she suggested that writing fic and making fanart are ways to balance the quick dopamine of watching a show/reading fic with the slow dopamine of working at something that takes effort.

FOR SCIENCE!
