I posted my first art piece n immediately got my first comment from a scammer :( sad n broken hearted ….

For those less familiar with VTM lore, HJ and LaVonte made an oath not to just kill each other on the Golden Gate Bridge, but to do so after usurping the power of Caine, the God of the Vampires and the fourth Human being to ever exist. Also, when a Vampire devours another of a lower generation, they take and usurp those powers for themselves… presuming they’re strong enough of will and mind to fully take over the soul. Which HJ and LaVonte seem confident in. Like, they looked at each other and said “Together we’ll kill god and be better then he ever could before dying together.”

you've met me at a very "yeah i'm trying to work on that" time in my life

I'm going to hold your hands when I say this: Maxwell being called a "rowdy" isn't about his sexuality - it's about his willingness to slum it with normal (poor) people. THAT'S why his dad was rude af to him but chill about Olethra's trans identity. The gentleman fisting jokes are fun because stuffy upper-class culture is deeply homo-erotic even though it pretends not to be, sure, but the reason "rowdy" hit's as an insult is because it's essentially the same as being called white trash/trailer trash. Maxwell and his beat up hands and willingness to go out and do dangerous and wild things are unacceptable because he is a member of the UPPER CLASS. They are financiers. They wear silk suits and sit behind desks and let other people do the dirty work. Every single one of the Gotch brothers could be getting crazy sloppy back shots every night and it wouldn't matter as long as it was from a person of respectable status - but Maxwell is in the fight pits with the randoms and the normies. He's voluntarily entering spaces where his class status is secondary to his physical prowess. Yes the gay jokes are fun, but that's not the POINT of the character.

Love to see big bro get his flowers

I think that some viewers of Marty Supreme didn’t understand the significance of Marty Mauser, a Jewish man, winning in Japan against Japans star table tennis player in the aftermath of WW2. If u thought Marty supreme wasn’t deep or interesting, I suggest looking at it through a historical lens & consider what was happening and had happened in the world while this competition was going on

I hadn't considered that to this level, it just adds a whole other layer too it!!! Looks like I'm going to have to go rewatch it one more time…
