following weird horny furries who are into shit like pooltoys and transformation and stuff is enrichment. the vitamins and minerals of posting

once you get over your ass and realise you will never get some people and that’s ok you are basically immune to right wing fearmongering. otherkin? none of my fucking business

I must not fall victim to disgust. Disgust is the heart-killer. Disgust is the little-death that brings total apathy. I will face my disgust. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the disgust has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

what absolutely makes the end of brand new day for me, with ned remembering and recognizing peter, is that … it’s so in character. like jean says it earlier, mj would be sick at the idea of a perfect fairytale kiss waking the princess up ooh so cute BLEGH!! she would hate that. ned, on the other hand? ned would LOVE the idea that they broke the spell and got his memories back by doing their super special best friend handshake, ned would love the whole fairytale magical remembering thing, he would just be all over that.

I was impressed with how NOT tropey they managed to make MJ’s relationship with Peter after having forgotten him. We don’t dwell on any sort of disbelief where she’s convicted it can’t possibly be true. She knows it’s true, and that’s part of why it hurts her and confuses her. We also don’t have any type of “she doesn’t care about him anymore” sentiment meant to punch us in the gut. Yes it’s very sad for Peter that she doesn’t love him, but ofc she doesn’t since you can’t love someone you can’t remember—but she does care about him. Because you don’t actually have to know someone intimately to care about them, so even though MJ has none of the memories of her intimate relationship with Peter, she still has intelligent and curious conversations with him, then finds out their history and feels for him and is honest with him and sees his bravery and deservingness and invites him to come meet Ned because she knows that will mean a lot to him. Because MJ is a caring person, not just to her best friend and boyfriend, and so as painful as it is that she doesn’t remember Peter being the love of her life, it was so much more bearable than it could have been, because they didn’t murder her character to contribute to Sad. There’s a reason MJ made Peter so happy to begin with, and she’s still that same MJ, memories or not. She still has all the same qualities that made her fall in love with him and him fall in love with her, even if she doesn’t have the memories and feel that same love. And I kind of love that actually.
