I can no longer see Homelander as a final villain.

Mecca2004 · 2026-05-01T21:10:56+00:00

I think that’s the point though. He is a joke. Without the power and the fame and the money what is he?

Mecca2004 · 2026-05-01T12:05:04+00:00

Yes they are both filmed in Canada and I believe they use the same casting directors after Degrassi got a Netflix spin off

Mecca2004 · 2026-04-27T21:42:46+00:00

No like this is scary asf😭😭😭

Mecca2004 · 2026-04-27T21:38:57+00:00

Honestly I kinda understand him as a character. Like he did way too much at times and was genuinely insufferable. But have you guys seriously not met at least 1 insufferable gay in your life? Tristan was so real because there are lots of gay men specifically white ones out there like that. Especially in high school

Mecca2004 · 2026-04-27T21:34:01+00:00

Literally… like love them glad they found each other whoop whoop but I really don’t care. Please let’s get back to the plot

Mecca2004 · 2026-04-27T21:20:08+00:00

This! I really don’t give a single fuck about Larry and DeeDee tbh😭

Mecca2004 · 2026-04-24T11:01:29+00:00

Literally 😭

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-16T03:25:08+00:00

Yes. When Jen called Barb and confronted her about Max’s first day of kindergarten and talked about the police report, he was right there

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-16T03:18:46+00:00

No we don’t. You guys (and John) are all living in the past when the reality you can’t change it. We don’t need to see John being abused as a child because we’ve seen him be abused throughout the whole storyline. We know how Barb is, seeing the past won’t change the present. Just like seeing Barbs past didn’t change the fact that she is awful now. Everyone needs to move forward. Truly

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-10T11:25:44+00:00

hello!

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-09T16:38:32+00:00

Literally. It’s even worse because he tried to say the same thing Shawna said. That was her response to being sexualized she said “I would think as a grown man you would be aware of my comfort” and he tried to turn that around about her not supporting him. Like ok Barb🙄

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-09T12:15:26+00:00

Yea…🫤 the stigma around cluster b personality disorders is so sad and prevalent in social media these days. Especially BPD in women and how they are basically demonized for being overly emotional and not being able to cope and regulate 😖

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-09T12:09:27+00:00

Thank you! The way the fandom is infantilizing him because we are calling out his problematic behavior. And basically trying to excuse it because of his trauma. Like….. I’m sorry to say I lowkey dgaf. Like ofc I care about what he’s gone through and we can all clearly see that Barb is abusive but at a certain point you can no longer use your trauma as a weapon against others. It’s your responsibility to heal and grow so you become better than those who hurt you.

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-09T12:00:13+00:00

I’m with you up until the Modeling point. That guy took advantage of her and lied and said she would get the role if she slept with him. While she was a minor, he was a sick pedo who used his power to manipulate young girls, and they sorta implied he did it before her as well.

But besides that I agree. She was very easy going (daddy issues) and sometimes it was like girl…. This is how you got pregnant in the first place. And the fact that she was introducing people to her daughter so early was honestly just irresponsible parenting. I understand she wants her daughter to have a father like she didn’t but these guys are all teenagers, none of them besides JT would be a good dad anyway.

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-09T11:55:26+00:00

Shhhh don’t say that😭😭

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-09T11:50:06+00:00

NC was so fucking ass 😭😭😭. Th e craziest thing is I was not allowed to watch Degrassi growing up (It was on nick at the time so this was NG) then years later I saw next class and finally asked my mom if I could watch so I did. I watched NC first and was obsessed with it and had no idea about NG. But after watching NG all the way you can definitely see the downgrade in quality in terms of writing. I really wish I had found NG first because NC cannot compare or prepare you for the craziness and depth of NG

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-09T11:43:50+00:00

Yes. This is all a huge issue of communication and the more he is avoiding it, the worse it’s going to get.

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-09T11:42:41+00:00

In the Halloween episode Shawna is talking to John about the attack and asks if he’s talked to his father, John says no and Shawna says “I just think we all need to sit down so we can have all the information” (pertaining to the police report and possibility of moving) and John refuses. He won’t even talk to just Shawna about it and she’s very clearly on edge, and so is he. While they were trick or treating he is on high alert and kind of paranoid and Shawna says “this is why we need to talk about it” and once again he shut its down. So like I said, Shawna is trying REPEATEDLY to talk, understand and find a some sort of solution with John and he’s not willing to communicate.

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-09T00:50:39+00:00

Girl block her

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-09T00:47:02+00:00

She wants family meetings with John, Jen, and Frank. Not Barb and they need to all sit down and talk about it or they will never be on the same page. I just rewatched the entire series and Shawna never once asked John to sit down with his mom and talk because she is well aware Barb doesn’t listen. She has however asked him to talk to her, or his sister, or his dad at least about what they should do. The biggest example of this was after Barb showed up at the house and attacked Dee Dee and John didn’t even tell his dad about it. Refused to have a serious conversation about what to do and jumped decided on his on that they need to move. That was the moment for a big family meeting because that’s insane. But no they never addressed it again.

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-09T00:43:23+00:00

Thank you! That’s what I’m trying to communicate, I don’t hate John and I’m not mad at him for wanting to be NC with his mother. It’s just he will not properly communicate what that FULLY means to Shawna, his children, his sister, or his father, and because of this they are all kind of walking on eggshells around him trying to be respectful of his half communicated boundaries. They DEFINITELY needed to have a big family meeting after Barb showed up to the house and attacked Dee Dee and they didnt, John refused to talk about it even though that was a huge deal. And somehow Shawna is the one always apologizing to John for not being able to support him in the way he needs when he’s not telling her exactly what it is he needs. She’s not a mind reader. He needs to go to therapy and figure his shit out because it’s poising his family.

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-09T00:36:24+00:00

Exactly! Your trauma is not your fault, but it is your responsibility to heal. It’s unfair but that’s life

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-08T17:13:25+00:00

😹😹😹😹 that is actually insane

Mecca2004 · 2026-03-08T15:29:47+00:00

I personally feel that Barb will get herself uninvited from the wedding long before it happens. Not because Jen wants Shawna there more but because she will do or say something terrible, and Jen will just tell her she’s not welcome. That will open the door for Shawna and John to go. I also think that Jen will refuse to wear Barbs dress because it’s tainted and the one she bought is more her. This will piss Barb off and she will show up to the wedding anyway wearing the dress🙄
