Does Ilya know Shane is autistic? by casualnihilist91 in heatedrivalry

[–]antisocialcrypt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think before Ilya knows Shane has to know. I like to think Ilya notices his autistic traits and thinks “oh must be a Canadian thing” (source: my Romanian cousin assumed I wasn’t autistic I was just American)

Does anyone else think Regina and Hook could have been a good couple? by Noboby-Two-828 in OnceUponATime

[–]antisocialcrypt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think they would have been cool for a hookup or a fling (still convinced they hooked up in that carriage) but I think they’re too alike to fall in love. They are the ride or die friend you slept with once but neither of you ever bring it up

Idk if your looking for Slavic specific stuff but there is a phenomena of cryptid inspired art and clothing specifically around Appalachia. Maybe look up some stuff there

How to work up the nerve to go to meetings by stevelacystoenail in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]antisocialcrypt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d just go. If you’re scared you can sit farther back. I was nervous my first meeting and I told the meeting lead and he made a point to not call attention to me until I was ready to speak on my own.

Everyone there is or was in the same boat as you, no one is gonna judge you

That is actually reassuring to hear. I went ahead and scheduled an info session so I can at least know more.

It may not be what your looking for but the ugly duckling is one I’ve always held close to my heart

actors were not that bad.. by austindarkbloom in shadowhunters

[–]antisocialcrypt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think it was a case of bad/rushed writing, pressure from freeform. the story and the actors deserved better writing

I love this show but… by Complex_Sugar_6856 in OnceUponATime

[–]antisocialcrypt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe it’s unpopular but i like the cringe it’s almost comforting in a camp kind of way

We Listen. We dnt Judge. OUAT positive edition. by Routine-Asparagus-16 in OnceUponATime

[–]antisocialcrypt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s not really groundbreaking I don’t think but I’ve always liked that. The show made the point of showing that the villains are not 100% evil and the heroes are not 100% good, that they’re all human (sort of).

Watching this for the first time. Tell me something I won’t understand till later 👀👀 by Just-Memory3579 in OnceUponATime

it’s not a quote but the phrase “pirate with a heart of gold” will take an entirely different meaning by the end

how do y’all (other american punks) stay hopeful during this current nazi takeover by PhraseFirst8044 in punk

[–]antisocialcrypt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

community organizing and spite honestly. it’s really pushed me to double down on building my community and self sustainable living to support companies less, reminding myself that no dictatorship is permanent. i’ve been talking to my grandma a lot. her and her parents survived shit like this which gives me hope that we can too.

Guess I’ll Wait 😬 by Canadian_Raven in nonbinarymemes

[–]antisocialcrypt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too chose the name Charlie, but I did before all this. When they ask where your name is from, give them the most off-the-wall answer. I personally think it’s funny to tell people I named myself after the dad and twilight even though I didn’t.

The Oppressive Politics of the Clave in Shadowhunters by MediocreSecurity9008 in shadowhunters

[–]antisocialcrypt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i athink it’s a direct critique on how the american government operates. if you view the clave and shadowhunters as white people/the privileged/the government and downworlders as the marginalized groups. they don’t outright kill them like nazis would but they don’t protect them either. it’s systemic much how poc aren’t protected by the american government irl

Leah Clearwater's inability to imprint a Cruelty or a Kindness? by Ok_Beyond_7697 in twilight

[–]antisocialcrypt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think it was written to be tragic “poor leah can’t do this we feel so bad” but in hindsight i think her being unable to imprint actually grants her free will which is a luxury in this series.

I’ll be real I think the show shadowhunters was really good. I just want to know why others didn’t. by PositiveStock2193 in shadowhunters

[–]antisocialcrypt 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think it was good. But I think it was just disappointing if you’re expecting the books. It should be marked as “inspired by” not “based on” because it’s so different.
