okay. but tonights episode.
attn: pearl haters
teen titans go is just so unpleasant to watch
Damn them for appealing to children
i just literally watched an ep where robin wanted to build a pool instead of a senior’s centre because he wanted to see starfire in a bikini and rub lotion on her and acting fucking creepy as fuck about it like what child goes through wanting to see one of their peers wearing a bikini how is this appealing/relatable to children like
there was also an episode i saw recently where the team lost their memory except for robin and he spent the entire episode convincing everyone he was their leader and he like, raised and saved everyone or something, basically convincing them to worship him, but when it came to starfire he tried to convince everyone she was his girlfriend and she seemed confused and uncomfortable but robin was like “ha ha! just a bit of couple banter! love you sweetie!” and refused to stop treating her like they were dating until she got her memory back? like? what message does that give. robin is a creepy bastard towards starfire in every episode i catch on tv. ttg is not a good tv show for children. it appeals to them through humour and designs and easy to follow storylines but that doesnt make it a good show for children, especially when they pass off someone like robin as a protag.
There was another episode where Cyborg was shown stalking Jinx, like he knew her favorite bands and foods and what she smelled like?? And they basically put a highlight on stalkers because even though she pointed out it was creepy, and he said “I know” in a comedy bit to brush it off, they ended up dating happily.
What is that teaching young boys and girls? That stalking is okay? That stalking is romantic? Come the fuck on.
LOOK AT WHAT YOUVE STARTED WITH DEO. ARE YOU LOOKING? GOOD. ITS AMAZING. THANK YOU. (PFFT Seriously this is great to watch)
white male voice: “there’s nothing wrong with capitalism”
And both places pay better than my current job. Funny.
“Money doesn’t buy happiness” ok and poverty buys what exactly
where is the lie
Out of poverty creates strength and compassion. It’s weird how that works.
i sure wasn’t feeling the strength when i was skipping class because i was too weak to walk there after going 2-3 days without food, and i definitely wasn’t compassionate when i was checking every time i walked home to see if there was an eviction notice on the door. stop trying to fucking make it seem like a good thing.
I hate people who romanticise poverty
People who romanticize poverty never lived it.
I wasn’t strong when we lived in a mobile home behind a payless shoestore and all I had were hand me downs. I wasn’t compassionate when I went days without eating.
Money might not buy happiness but it can buy basic living conditions, food and a chance for higher education and the freedom to peruse your interests which is pretty damn close.
So Capt Jack got his ‘Pirate’ brand for liberating slaves. Yes I want this story told.
This is why his soul is worth 100 souls. Because he saved 100 slaves. The Black Pearl has its name for a reason. It’s a slave running ship.
Actually, that’s not quite correct. The reason the Black Pearl has it’s name is because it burnt down. The original name of the ship carrying slaves was called the Wicked Wench. Jack Sparrow captained this ship during the time he worked with the East India Trading Co. After refusing to haul slaves, he was arrested and personally branded with a P by Lord Cutler Beckett. Then, as punishment, was chained to his own ship while it was lit aflame and left to die. However, as he was dying, he made a pact with Davy Jones to bring both himself and his ship back for thirteen years in exchange for 100 souls. In doing this, Davy Jones made it the fastest and most dangerous ship in existence (besides the Dutchman, of course). So the reason the Pearl is black is not because it carried slaves, but because Jack Sparrow gave his life to save them.
Why do they keep making dumb movies like the Fountain of Youth when they could make a great Captain Jack backstory movie
HOLY SHIT
NEED PREQUEL MOVIE NOW
I WANT A FUCKING PREQUEL
