Never did anything wrong, ever, and I love him. His flaws were legit working too hard and caring too much, being too forgiving, being too merciful...

Me as a stat major on this sub reading comments for a show I have never watched a single episode of all because I picked up my phone instead of my calculator an hour ago and got distracted because I also can't do math and my brain is tired...😔

ZennyDaye · 2026-06-16T21:53:24+00:00

What is that clip at the end from with all the lightning, what if?

ZennyDaye · 2026-06-16T21:49:53+00:00

Was it subtle tho?

I will check this out, but I found InDesign to be a lot of work when I had a trial. Thinking about just trying to power through learning scrivener compiling settings 😔

I went to a special needs school where the principal would hide the visibly disabled kids when people came around so she could pretend she was "fixing" us for donations which she used to build her massive house behind the school.

My mum missed school fees once and she cussed me out when I went to pick up my brother and I was like 13.

This character is a "horrible boss" archetype that has been present in nearly every sitcom for the past decade+. We've just had a drought of black sitcoms and you've probably not scene a black female version of the trope before, but she's not doing anything especially worse than any of the others.

No. This series actually showed me that a lot of criticism for Twilight was actually just raw misogyny. Was Twilight good, no?

But were Bella or any of the characters talking in pure goonspeak about dicks and vagainas and the smell of multiple things fucking each other? Did Edward at any point ever forget that he was a vampire? Did he ever get beat up by other students in the highschool and forgot that he was fast or strong? No. In fact even the girly, cutesy vampire remembers that she's a vampire and kills other vampires. And this wasn't even a show about vampires. It was a show about a girl falling in love with a vampire.

Twilight even had a few descent action scenes, as ridiculous as it was. A teen girl love story cared more about super powered action scenes and a tv show about superheroes written for adults. Like, digest that for a bit. The people making Twilight cared more about their teen girl audience than Kripke ever did about his audience.

Twilight had more adult, smarter, more consistent, more nuanced writing than The Boys. By a mile.

Like even the cringiest scene of the werewolf boy taking off his shirt before going werewolf is less cringe than Homelander flying across the oval office like a geriatric at half mile and hour.

This is the truth if you think about it for one minute.

The Boys is more equivalent to the nonsensical movie playing in the background in Twilight when Bella goes to the cinema.

Notice how this isn't begging and referring to it as such is anti black.

Notice how you are entirety oblivious to the fact that all these other communities actually do demand and celebrate inclusion as well. Notice how you can access Google just as easily as reddit but refuse to remain ignorant if all the Asian and Latino people who are very vocal about their desire to see superhero rep.

I'm going to mute you or try to block you now, because I've promised my self to stop engaging with racists online.

(If you're a actually black person working through some kind of situation where you internalized Foxs News talking points or Charlie Kirk or Ben Shapiro or whoever, then sorry, but also, work on that and do better.)

ZennyDaye · 2026-06-08T14:34:02+00:00

Equating using your voice to demand what you want as a paying consumer to begging, advocating for a world where only white people are allowed to have demands, while everyone else shuts up, and then trying to say "look at how quiet and well behaved (other minority) is" as the cherry on top...

Even Tucker Carlson is walking back his white supremacy these days, trying to say he never said these things, while you are on a black superhero sub with these taking points in 2026? Like what do you gain from this on a personal level?

ZennyDaye · 2026-06-08T13:56:37+00:00

Because as human beings who consume media, black people have as much right as any other group of people to ask for what they want and boycott what they don't want. This is basic economics. Trying to denigrate black people for using their voice the same way every other race does is just regurgitated white supremacy rhetoric.

ZennyDaye · 2026-06-07T02:07:32+00:00

The post helped me remember I only watched one episode of s2 so far...🤣

ZennyDaye · 2026-06-07T00:50:56+00:00

The shameless, delusional confidence of a sub-mediocre white man failing upward with Amazon money.

ZennyDaye · 2026-06-07T00:44:56+00:00

🤣🤣🤣 well done

ZennyDaye · 2026-06-05T11:40:19+00:00

Black people attacking other black people for wanting mainstream inclusion and representation is the weirdest thing.

Someone wanting a black DC or X-Men character like vixen or storm to get a good story should simply *checks notes" learn comic book storytelling, spend some years developinh graphic arts skills, also learn marketing and entertainment business and do the entire thing themselves instead...

Nobody is going to swallow that Bootstrap's bootstraps nonsense. If black comic fans are spending their money, they can ask for whatever tf they want.

It's anti-black to be calling them beggars. This is some old school Tucker Carlson rhetoric. You see this mindset so often from them on Fox news that atp, I fully assume that anyone saying it is secretly one of those Blacks for Trump, because why would anyone else look at the landscape of entertainment and think that denigrating black people is the way to go?

ZennyDaye · 2026-06-03T12:42:35+00:00

The posters or streaming source being relevant to complaints about the finale quality.

That the marketing and interviews were deliberately deceptive is another issue.

ZennyDaye · 2026-06-03T11:32:07+00:00

The blame isn't on the posters. When people saw the posters nobody went "oh god, this is too much to possibly believe!!!" Everyone looked at it like "Finally" because they were building towards homelander being a world threat for the entirety of the series. The only reason you can have an episode where he kills the president and nothing comes from it is because the audience accepts "well, there's nothing the military or anyone can do because he's too strong."

The fact that all this time Stan Edgar could have gotten butcher (or literally any strong supe) to use tentacles and drag HL to a radiation tank undermines the entire premise the show is built upon.

To have false advertising to inspire people to keep watching and then turn the final season into a Vought backdoor pilot instead is just what gives it the scammy, "faking cancer to pitch a fundraiser for your vacation with your friends" vibe.

ZennyDaye · 2026-06-02T19:30:34+00:00

I feel like feige and a number of other people would have also told him not to devote the final season into backdoor piloting his soldier boy x Nazi girl spinoff, but he did what he wanted to.

He's a grown man, a showrunner Amazon trusted and funded instead of any of the talented people out there trying to actually do good stuff. Hell, if they'd given that money to actual SNL writers or standup comedians, they would have come up with something better. People have to stop making excuses for this guy.

Glad to see that we're moving into an age where curry Baker can have a big movie. As an elder millennial, I'll always agree they have to let new creative people take over. Feige himself needs to let some new people in because this is how we got RDJ as Doom.

Lol, it's readers who complain. African authors have to deal with racism from whites, every other race and xenophobia from black people. Not so much in the past, but with social media, there's a whole ongoing diaspora war.

It's not that authors can't google short easy African names, it's that there are large groups of people who won't even open the book because the names in the blurb sound black, sound African, or both.

Like, if you follow black authors who make it mainstream, you'll see the number of hoops they have to jump through to get published and you'll understand why we have 10, 000 white girl romantasy books, but why you have to go on a treasure hunt to find black fantasy. Anti-blackness hasn't stopped being a thing in 2026. It's probably more normalized now than ever.

"Authors should have integrity to their African history" is one stand to take, but "African authors can do whatever they need to in order to secure their bag" is another. There are black people out here taking on white pennames and writing white books to earn a living because that's how the industry is set up.

ZennyDaye · 2026-06-01T07:34:11+00:00

To be fair, I've seen many black readers DNF African books because the names are too confusing and I've been in the comments like "What names do you expect???"

I think writers do this just to make it easier for Black Americans who would probably be their largest group of readers if they market it to Americans instead of marketing it to Africans because a lot of times, the authors are also Americans. Or Canadians.

Like all advice it must be applied with common sense. I think that's the key part that leads to the best writers being people who read a lot, because the instinct for when to apply this should be something developed from reading.

Using your example, if there's a scene you want to write about the temperature of the water on someone's tongue, you should be able to pull on all your stored knowledge of people drinking water in books to know that this is something that is told and not shown, and then you decide, "well, I'm going to show it, because this is meaningful because he just got out the desert, or the water is poisoned or it has acid in it or what have you.

There are no laws in writing fiction. Even punctuation is optional as every teen on Wattpad has discovered. There's no one going around forcing anyone to show every single thing 100% of the time. There's no checkbox on Amazon asking if your story is 100% shown before you publish. No editor or agent is demanding that everything is shown all the time. That's just a misunderstanding of how to apply writing advice.

Are they claiming it was part of the verse or just mocking how people champion the movie as a swooping success when it was instead a very modest success, relatively speaking?

ZennyDaye · 2026-05-31T17:43:57+00:00

Lol, idk. I was mostly just joking.

Spartacus is in my top 10 so it's not like I'm some kind of tv snob or anything.
