i really don’t care if they don’t follow the book 100% faithfully, but this stuff, if it’s true, has nothing to do with the characters we know anymore.
they’ve been going OOC with aemond for the entire season, same with alicent, but at a more gradual speed. now they’re just completely decimating team green and they look like a parody of themselves almost????
it’s just sooo disappointing. how did we get here? why did we get here???

Round of 16 v. Sweden??? With Rose & Girma with a yellow??? There is no chance if they play like this again. PERIOD. This is not a World Cup team. If they clean up and make it past the round of 16, Japan most likely. Japan's level of play is so concise, clean, efficient. They've cleaned up 100x since she believes, while we have slipped.
I am seeing so many blogs on here get hate for having criticisms of Harry concert last night and like why?? Why are some of you so bothered if others didn’t like his outfit or thought the show wasn’t fully polished or were upset it still happened because we’re still in a pandemic? It’s ok to enjoy something and still have criticisms about them like that’s the whole point of art (in all forms including live entertainment)!!
Let people have an opinion and acknowledge that the show wasn’t perfect because it was his first and they haven’t fixed some of the kinks out yet. So in case people need a reminder:

One of my biggest fears is that I'll never find a job I truly enjoy. I know it's pretty uncommon for people to have careers they love doing because of the need for money and stability and stuff, but I'm so scared of spending my life to work in something that I don't like.
I've changed my mind so many times growing up of what I want to do, from working in a hair salon, to looking at fashion marketing degrees, to studying journalism then on to marketing, and switching to nursing, and I'm so scared that I'm wasting my time at uni because I might change my mind again.
I feel like I'm not enjoying things as much as I should, which to be fair the situation right now working is a little difficult with covid, having to stay in a new place for a month, being a first year student which means I can't legally (and competently) do much and my work not being in the specific area I was wanting, but what if it is genuinely not for me?
I'm scared of looking who I am because of work, I don't want to only be eating and sleeping so I can be ready for work the next day, I don't want to never do the things I enjoy because I'm busy at work, I don't want to be waiting so badly for the weekend just so I can get a break.
I love being busy and I love putting my time into things so working makes me feel like a have a purpose, it's just I want it to be something that reflects me and makes me feel content and fulfilled.
I really struggle knowing what my passions are or what I'm interested in, I've never really been so interested in something that I've wanted to make a career of it and I've never explored much to know the options.
I'm scared that changing my degree was a bad choice, although nursing is a more stable and rewarding career so I guess, even if it wasn't the right decision, I have that to come from it.
I think also whenever I've thought about careers I've always tried to go for the highest positions, like being a manager, a therapist, a creative director- something of a higher position, and yet when I think of careers that would make me happy, they're so much smaller like owning a little cafe (not saying that owning a business is smaller by any means, that's a lot of hard hard work, but I mean not being so focused on earning tons of money or having power).
I want that feeling of having a job that makes you feel like you're never working, that you love so much you'd rather do that than anything, but I just don't know what I enjoy that much.
Okay, so I recently got back into Yuri!!! On Ice (I’ve delayed in rewatching the episodes since I want to do draw alongs and haven’t had the time or energy for that yet.) But I have an opinion that I’ve always wanted to express.
I really like JJ’s character.
When I first started interacting with the show while it was airing, I didn’t have a Tumblr or anything. A lot of the opinions and discussions of JJ I saw were totally negative (and still are.) And to me that’s very disheartening, especially since we see JJ have change (even if slightly). (Now, as I haven’t watched the show in three years it’s not quite fresh in my mind, but this is what I’m feeling as of current.) JJ is an asshole, but I like that.
JJ is cocky. He’s a bastard. There’s no, “oh well he was pressured into this” because all of the skaters experienced pressure in their youth. We see it in the show’s run with Yurio and we can pick it up in the dialogue of the other character’s (maybe especially even Viktor). But what we see toward the end, when JJ flops his last skate, is he is King JJ. I think it was a super powerful moment in Yuri!!! On Ice where we see JJ have his break down and instead of falling to that break down, once he knows he’s plummeted, he loses JJ Style. Do you know how awesome that is to see a character own their loses like that? JJ - whose entire character has been “I’mma win the gold, bitch” - flourishes into this character of “well, I’m still a boss ass bitch.” In fact, if we forgo the personality of the two characters entirely, this attitude is what Yuuri should have had in the previous Grand Prix. Yuuri had that same break down and same plummet, but instead of being sure of himself, he crumbled.
I’m not saying that JJ isn’t an asshole. He is an asshole. His personality can be toxic. But I like that. I think he’s such a cool character. Would I be friends with him? Probably not, but then again, seeing that end of his, I think the lose sort of humbled him slightly. Maybe he didn’t have the large character changing arc that others did (Georgi and Mickey [who we’ll get back to], or any of Yuuri, Yurio, and Viktor) but he had his own change. His own change that he could still lose and still do it in JJ Style. He’s not a loveable character because of his flaws. He’s a well-written and human character that I admire very much because he’s an asshole. It’s actually hilarious because he’s actual such an this is how other people see Americans trope and he’s Canadian.
Now, for people who hate the character. They hate the charcter and not the person and I think that’s unfair. They act like he’s the only toxic character written on the show. Hell, all of the characters have their own version of toxic. Georgi and his dependency on a romantic relationship and Mickey and his dependency on his relationship with Sara are two prominent ones. Honestly, I think Mickey is sort of way more toxic than JJ (at least, in my opinion. Hence the I think. None of this is like, research or anything. It’s just my opinion and how I consumed the show and the characters.)
But Mickey, well, no one wants that. Emil, Sara, and other characters all acknowledge that his near obsession with his sister is not healthy or helpful. And while I’m not saying that I hate the character (I actually love him supremely, I love the growth of him ;~;). I just think it’s a bit odd that we hyper-fixate on JJ as “the Jackass™️” and don’t acknowledge that there are other characters who have those moments. Maybe they don’t play out as the story’s “antagonist”, but really, every character had their own antagonist and half of the time it was themself.
Hell, even Yurio falls into this category of antagonistic and jackass-ish. The first time we even see Yurio he’s introduced as a psuedo-antagonist. (We learn, however, that Yurio is not Yuuri’s antagonist. Yuuri’s own self-confidence is his antagonist. His battle with his doubt and anxiety, etc... [but that’s it’s own novel, isn’t it?]) Yurio verbally berates Yuuri (after his dog has died, even if Yurio didn’t know it) and he battles Yuuri for Viktor. Granted, Yurio goes from jackass to insecure 15 years old real quick, but why does Yurio’s acts get forgiven “because he’s young”? He’s recognized as an adult to some degree since at age 15 he’s moved to the Senior League, right? Or even still, JJ is only nineteen himself. Who the hell is an adult at 19? We’re still flabbergasting our way through life by either pretending to be confident in what we’re doing or screaming into the void. My point is, all of the characters are actually fairly young and they’re still learning.
I’m not saying that JJ is hanging out with the group and is part of the “and they all lived together happily ever after” ending. I’m just saying I don’t get why his character is constantly either thrown away or treated like the series villain. Yeah, sure, he was certainly Yurio’s villain for a while. And Yuuri’s too. JJ is an asshole, but I think acting like he’s the only asshole is really detrimental. Or really, I think avidly hating a character when there are people who like him, admire his ability to lose in JJ style, is one of the huge downfalls of fandom. Any  fandom that I am in, there’s always that one asshole who everyone shits on (and I have been guilty of it from time to time but I’m trying to not do that) because tryying to look for JJ content and getting only putrid hate for the character sucks ass.
Anyways, TL;DR: I love JJ’s character and I think the loathing that he gets as if his name alone brings vile to someone’s throat sucks ass for people (like me) who actually super love the character.
