going through the motion

Here's your kicked bloody puppy.

Clark has got to be one of the best-written horror antagonists in recent memory, and the thing I love most about his character is how the film makes you understand his hardships, while at the same time not using them to justify, excuse, or downplay his actions.

You really get a clear idea of how his own hardships inspire the bad decisions he makes. And at the same time, it doesn't pull any punches in showing you the consequences of those decisions, which ultimately resulted in the creation of the Captain Clark entity.

Yes, I don't doubt that he was going through a very difficult time in his life, but it goes without saying that it doesn't give him the right to lash out at everyone and make their lives difficult. And it sure as hell didn't give him the right to take out his frustrations on his spouse or Mary!!!

That's why I love (to hate) him so much! He's not some run-of-the-mill mustache-twirling villain. He's understandable, relatable, and even sympathetic! And at the same time, the film is smart enough to not use those things that make him understandable, relatable, and sympathetic to excuse the harm and hurt he chose to inflict.

"too many authors in the current market are focusing on selling 'spice' instead of telling interesting stories"

"oh yeah, i agree. i started reading one that i heard a lot about and it just wasn't-"

"and it's all of these women reading their fucking mommy porn out in public like FREAKS"

Theyve been so kind helping me out every time I'm in a jam and I wanna show appreciation somehow. 😭♥️

I need to draw the girls more at some point 😔

Constantly trying to get Project Hail Mary right, with every scientist unable to crack the code on astrophage within the necessary time frame. On the n-thousandth try, she finds Dr. Ryland Grace, junior high science teacher. He cracks it within a few days.

And then she spends the next hundred- next thousand loops trying to avoid sending this man, this ridiculous, brilliant, selfish, good man to the stars.

But no matter how she tries, no matter who she brings on board and keeps separate, they're always down a scientist in the eleventh hour. And Grace always has to go. And he never agrees. Every time is a desperate, messy, tear-filled bid to let him live, to find someone else to sacrifice to the Hail Mary.

It's never difficult to ask the others to willingly give their lives. It's never NOT difficult to forcefully take Ryland Grace's.

saw this trend and knew exactly who

we never saw Baby’s reaction during the fansign event but without doubt, this mfer would be likes this 🙄
