nothing here to see.

I do not want to see them as a couple.

I don’t want Sara to fall in love with August.

I do, however, want August to fall in love with Sara. Because wouldn’t that be a cosmic fuck you to him? You call her a freak, make her best friend miserable, kiss her out of no where, fuck over her brother, hook up with her after she finds out you were the one who fucked over her brother, and then you fall in love with her.

And she leaves. Because she’s never needed you. You’ve always needed her.

wilhelm’s plan was to convince his mom to not have to make a statement at all. never had he thought or even discussed coming out with simon. and that’s not at all what simon even excepted or wanted him to do either.

wilhelm was never gonna come out (and didn’t have to). all they wanted to do, is stay in their own private bubble :( they were never “hidden”, they still hung out as friends because they weren’t “hiding” that they knew each other.

it’s when wilhelm suggested to NOT BE SEEN together that simon had to end it, bc (again) they were never “hidden” before.

Yeah I totally agree with that perspective. Wilhelm wanted to live his own life and just wanted the media to stay out of it. He has still barely come to terms with who he is and his sexuality. Simon is probably his first love and relationship and they still don’t know each other that well. He just wanted to be with Simon. Get to know him in their own pace.

People weep and moan for well written representation in film and I’m like “Power Rangers 2017 gave you a team with only one white member, a questioning queer girl, and an autistic hero that doesn’t have ‘magical autism’. He was just autistic and was just like, “Oh, I am autistic, so I’m not going to pick up on your sarcasm.”

They didn’t make autism into a superpower or some life ending tragedy, they had a character with autism who had that inform his character. Billy wasn’t ashamed of this. He was bullied and bad at social cues but the only shame he ever felt was guilt over his reaction to his dad’s death which makes perfect fucking sense.

Trini was in a questioning, confused state and her sexuality is just there and causing her some difficulty. Not because she might be gay, but because she is not sure and doesn’t know how to express this to her family.

Zack was the ultimate subversion of the model minority bullshit people assign to Asians and Asian characters. He was a tactless thrill junkie processing his own hardships.

Kimberly had a nuanced narrative regarding bullying. She was a VERY grey character who legitimately did something awful.

And Jason’s story is basically the ultimate disection of toxic masculinity.

Saban was even hinting that Tommy was going to be a girl in the planned sequel. WE MIGHT HAVE GOTTEN A FEMALE URBAN NATIVE GREEN RANGER. ANYONE who knows Power Rangers can tell you how huge that would be. Tommy was the fan favorite and one of the most interesting characters. Yeah, we might have gotten a superhero film with a female Urban Native lead.

And y'all just dismissed this movie and made Krispy Kreme jokes. Newsflash: the movie was making Krispy Kreme jokes that were better than your Krispy Kreme jokes. If you honestly think “Krispy Kreme… it is a magical place” was supposed to be taken seriously, you are lame and boring and probably like Air Supply.

And gaaaah! Do you know how bad this movie SHOULD have been? Take this from a girl who draped her room in Pink Ranger shit for two years: Power Rangers is pretty fucking dumb. I love it, but nuance, pathos, and realism WERE NEVER CARDS IN THIS FRANCHISE’S DECK. Then this fucking movie, which I went into expecting a lazy, stupid, nostalgia bait had like… real characters, and conflict, and a script written on empathy. People actually worked their ass off to not only make a good movie, but one that was genuinely diverse and respectful and EMPATHETIC.

The movie bombed and y'all wrote it off despite it being one of the most diverse, heartfelt, and nonstereotypical films in recent memory.

i’m posting this here because FUCK i’m desperate.

I hate to do this but I’m stuck in a bad situation. My cat was recently diagnosed with diabeties and it has been one expense after another. So far it has cost $461 in vet appointments to diagnose and treat him as well as $126 for insulin and another $100 for food. He just had another sick appointment because he’s developed diabetic neuropathy and is starting to not be able to walk. Monday I’m supposed to set up an all day appointment to do a curve to check his insulin and glucose levels. I have no idea how to pay for it.

I know that a cat is probably not high priority when there are people that need money more but I love this baby more than life itself so I have to ask for any kind of help. I don’t have any health insurance myself and haven’t had my medications in over a year and I am also facing $4,000 in college debt so far. My car is broken and I can’t afford to fix it to go to college but I care more about my cat than my car. I take care of my mother full time and my cat is the only good thing and only friend I feel I have sometimes.

If there is anybody that could donate anything I would be much obliged. I can return the generosity by helping with any accounting or math homework you may have. I’m also a fairly decent editor so I could look over work if you want.
