i am already this old

people become so beautiful when you love them. do y'all know about this

idk I think maybe 2000s/10s feminism talked too much about “unrealistic beauty standards for women” that people forgot “beauty standards for women” is already fucked up

now that we’re halfway through ticket to heaven btw, is everyone ready to apologize for doubting aof or are we needing to wait until the last second to admit that energy was crazy in the first place?

I think they made ticket to heaven only have 6 episodes because they knew the human body wasn't built to deal with more than 6 weeks of this

I LOVE ticket to heavens persistent, heavy-handed symbolism. Every time I see bread I’m like quick!! Check if it’s leavened!! Every time I see water I’m like run the numbers and check whether we’re getting baptized rn

i can't even begin to be articulate about it right now but the way in the last scene tanrak is hiding from barth because he (and by extension the audience) knows he has been found out only for barth to turn around and reveal just how much he's also suffering and scared and struggling with his 'you know everything, don't you? [...] that i'm not god's favourite son.' and the way he sounds like he's almost on the verge of tears when he says that he likes men, and that he likes tanrak, and the way, after he kisses tanrak, he asks 'are you mad at me?' of all things..... like he's just a boy. sent away by his own father because he likes boys. abandoned and lonely and frightened. feeling like he's let down his Father too.... bartholomew you have ruined me so profoundly

the thing about heavy handed symbolism is that sometimes. it's fun.

anyone else notice how when "digital assistants" were just supposed to do specific tasks when you asked for them we had Alexa and Siri and Cortana, but now that they're being marketed as smart enough to take actions and make decisions on their own they've got names like Claude and Devin
