The Dream SMP fandoms is the most chaotic fandoms I’ve ever been in. If you miss one week with other shows you can just catch up after an hour or two of binging, but with the DSMP you miss one week and your behind 2 major plot points, a canon death, another character having a villain ark, and have to sell your first born to know whatever the nethers happening to Ranboo.
I’m gay and absolutely simping for Ryan but omg Steph is perfect for Alex pls help

actually fucking insane that the moment posts about mohammad and shaima's fundraiser turned their focus on the boys of their family still stuck in khan younis, donations slowed down so drastically. it just goes to show that people truly don't care for arab men, because to them arab men are not worth the same care and effort as women and children. and that really hurts me bc i can't even stand to think of my uncles, my cousins, my dad in the situation so many palestinian men have found themselves in - let alone teenage palestinian boys. please donate what you can and help spread this. arab men deserve your sympathy as much as anyone else.
and these ones that werent fake CCs but were still funny
they gave him highlights, britney waves, a diva lime green coat and they put him in glittery makeup with blood spattered all over his face while he cries and makes terrible jokes all the while daniel in the background pretends he’s dying,, and then he sings like he’s in the rocky horror show????? absolute EPIC serve incoming that will change the course of tv history
sam is straight up making Tommy clean up the server without him even realizing and it's the funniest thing ever
i care so much for techno and i am just utterly heartbroken but god i'm so amazed at how he's able to keep that same sense of humor. techno truly is such a good person and i want nothing more for him to be okay, to not feel pressured by anyone, especially the fans, and to focus on himself. he deserves it.
okay but techno finding comfort in playing games and continuing to make videos to post because it’s what he loves despite going through chemotherapy which truly can be such a rough process is making me so emotional holy shit. he always manages to keep such a positive outlook on things and i wish nothing but the best for him. he’s going to make it through this <3
the funeral (a grotesque display of two queens’ grief, forced on them against their will) being interjected by images of aegon beating blood into a bloody ruin says something about how women’s grief is exploited and paraded around as a virtue while male grief is only allowed to exist in conjunction with violence.
female sorrow is expected to be public, dignified, and even noble, it serves as a symbol of quiet strength and resilience. otto uses it as a tool to gain sympathy for their cause. notice how he forced alicent and helaena into it, while he allowed aegon not to participate. wouldn‘t the king being at the funeral send a powerful message? yes, it would. but otto looks at aegon with contempt, the other councilmen and alicent do not know what to do with his tears. the realm cannot be allowed to see the king grieve. not like this.
male grief is denied its own space and validity unless it manifests in aggressive or destructive acts. aegon realizes this to some degree too— he lashes out publicly by killing the rat catchers. he shows his grief by being violent, by spilling blood.
the toxicity of it all is very effectively shown at the end when aegon is crying by himself. did he retreat there to be alone and finally let it all out? his mother is either letting him have that moment alone or she’s deeply uncomfortable with it and chooses to leave. no matter what motivated alicent in acting the way she did— the moment still reveals how male vulnerability is something people fear. it shows that even the most human expressions of pain are not acceptable for some.
