i know lots of things about black sails were sort of worked out as it went along but it's awesome how much you can see everyone's entire character arcs in like the first few episodes. silver is introduced as a coward and a (literal) backstabber. flint can fight and scheme his way out of anything but collapses when he gets to his gay and bourgeois house. max wants the safety and stability she thinks money can give her but chooses to jeopardize it for love. eleanor is unable to stop fighting even when running is the only thing that could save her. they're so different from the people they are at the end of s4 but so entirely the same

i think we should start openly mocking male creatives who can't figure out how to write women. like actually i think it's embarrassing that it took elliot page transitioning for christopher nolan to give him a good role. why did it take like ten years to get the first female lead in a marvel movie? why is it a Known Fact that stephen king can't write women? why is 50% of the population omitted from large ensemble works? i asked my friend to name a movie directed by a man with a majority female cast and he said ghostbusters 2016. ghostbusters. ghostbusters. g

Crystal Palace is the character of all time because she spends the whole show telling everyone (but especially Edwin) that they’re sooo weird and annoying. like can you guys PLEASE be normal for just a second, you’re killing me. but at the same time, she’s in NO WAY the sane one there. girl you’re a psychic who made people walk into traffic recreationally. when someone’s being a dick you physically fight them even when you’ve got your acrylics on. you saw enough weird shit that your asshole boyfriend said “im a demon you should totally let me possess you” you were like “this is not only not weird, it is normal and romantic” you are NOT the barometer for regularness

"There's no platonic explanation for this" <-you need to be nicer to your friends. Right now

my favorite thing about louis is he's a business major in a world of theater kids. everyone's playing psychological games with each other through theater and rock music and the fractured art of storytelling and he's like "but what are the margins on my vampire hotel"

It’s so fucking bananas that the last straw for Lestat in that meeting was finding out that Louis was getting 45% of merch profits on his tour. What kind of joker ass motherfucker becomes an investor in their ex’s crash out??? Louis Du Pointe Du Lac no one ever did it like you

the difference between interviewing louis and lestat is that louis has spent the past decades ruminating in depressed silence and it’s going to be very hard to say something he hasn’t already thought to himself. daniel can say “have you thought about how your kid’s death was your fault” and louis will be like “extensively.” meanwhile lestat has been living in such avoidance loops that you ask him if he’d stuttered as a child he won’t answer because he needs to have a party drug orgy about it 

You show a cat something and they're like sniff sniff sniff sniff sniff sniff sniff ooooh I understand now. Don't care
