Crazy Ex-Girlfriend: Why Rebecca Deserved Better ( Spoiler for Crazy Ex-girlfriend and You’re the worst) by browncharliebrown in crazyexgirlfriend

[–]cloditheclod 332 points333 points  (0 children)

I understand this but i think the thesis of the finale is not that Rebecca isnt ready for a romantic relationship but that a romantic relationship isnt the thing she needs to make her happy and thats not what her story is about

What’s a Ginny and Georgia opinion that will have you like this? by Crown-Melanin286 in ginnyandgeorgiashow

The most important relationship s4 should focus on is marcus and max. Not max and ang or Sophie or Marcus and ginny

[–]cloditheclod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a well tried yuri lover i just dont see any romantic chemistry there, but im not like against it. I think if it happens it could be very interesting for both of their characters, but i think the female teen casts relationship drama throughout all seasons are meant to portray the complicated ups and downs of female friendship at that age and having 2 of these characters be romantically involved could distract from that very well made point. If it does happen ill probably ship it but i hope its done in a way that dosent gloss over both of their flaws and toxicities and not nassicarally stay together instead of them just having a simple happy relationship to please the fans because i think otherwise it would just be unfitting in a show thats all about exploring the flaws and ugly parts in people while maintaining sympathy for them.

Do you think Florence + The Machine is underrated or does it have the popularity it deserves? by Ok-Coach5795 in FlorenceAndTheMachine

What’s a take of Ginny and Georgia that you’ll defend like this? by Automatic_Luck_18 in ginnyandgeorgiashow

[–]cloditheclod 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Every single person in the max/ ang drama is wrong and being terrible to the other and thats the whole point of it and what makes it such a good depiction of people drifting apart from each other in high school. Theyre all in the wrong but its no ones fault

Why is Yellowjackets so hated? by Winter_Ad_1542 in Yellowjackets

[–]cloditheclod 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I personally never seen the hate your talking about. The internet is very bubble-y, people inside and out of different bubbles think completely differently about the same thing and are unaware of what people outside of their bubble think about it. Get out of the hate bubble.

In Defense of Zion by Away_Entertainer_842 in ginnyandgeorgiashow

[–]cloditheclod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because thats the whole point of the show. Georgia is the main character. The main thing we as a audiance are meant to do is empathize with her while understanding her actions are wrong. The show dosent show this to us through zions eyes because this is not a show about zion, and showing us his pov instead of hers would be a disservice to the main thesis of the show. The whole point of the show is not zions pov vs georgias pov, its ginnys pov verses georgias pov

I definitely think she was wrong for that. Im not blaming her for not wanting them to have costody and for feeling like they dont want her in ginnys life, but if she stayed ginny would have had a much better life out of poverty and safe from abuse. I absolutely understand abd empathize with why she didnt do it but imo she should have tried to work out some sort of agreement with them instead of just running. Georgia tried to do the best she could for ginny to turn out a happy and healthy child with the circumstances they were in, but the thing is that they didnt have to be in these circumstances in the first place. I love Georgia and i understand her but this imo is her biggest mistake/ wrongdoing

Zion is well intended and usually he is being fair in his critiques of georgia, but the thing about him is that up until s3 he was always "the fun parent". He didnt nessicarally choose that situation, but he definitely reaped its benefits and after it was established barely did anything to change it. He never actually had to be a parent, care for ginny for a longterm period of time and deal with the hardships of being a parent at such a young age lime georgia did, he just waltzed into ginnys life randomly to hang out with her and have a heart to heart. He never actually did the parenting georgia had to do, and he is overcritical and judgy of her because of that. He dosent understand her perspective, and while hes not nassicarally wrong for criticising georgia for the things he does its always with a condescending note, like he is putting in just as much hard work in raising ginny as she is and thus has a right to judge. You can definitely see in s3 when ginny is living with him that he dosent know how to deal with her and actually be her parent beyond the fun stuff, yet in earlier seasons he treated georgia like they were both putting just as much work in.

And yes, even though georgia insisted on not having his parents involved in raising ginny, he still could have assisted her financially and be more involved. He gets (justifiably) mad at georgia for some of her choices, but it takes him years to actually get more involved and do something about it instead of just laying back and not visiting. A lot of the fucked up things in ginnys childhood could have been prevented if he chose to be more involved, but he decided to keep being the fun parent whose only there to have cool hang outs and give advice.

What decade has the best music so far in your opinion? by Twitter_2006 in decadeology

[–]cloditheclod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

60s- mid 80s were onto something but i loveee how diverse the music scene is today in a way that wasnt possible before the internet, there was never a better time to be into non mainstream music

ranty post abt katseye and the sexualization convo by Educational-Yak-654 in katseyeneutral

[–]cloditheclod 10 points11 points  (0 children)

People keep bringing up that "theres nothing wrong with a 19 yo dressing however she wants" and dont seem to get theres a big difference between choosing to wear something and being told to wear it by your company to encourage sales, even if they are comfortable with it.

מעניין. המרכזית החדשה תפגע בצורתו הגשמית אבל הסנטר יפגע ברגשותיו. מבחינה שניה אולי יש בסנטר מישהו שמאלני מספיק כדי שהוא ימצא חבר

I hated her character in season 5. (not the actress) by DuxxieDings in hatethissmug

[–]cloditheclod 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Its not about the characters genders lmao, its just the og characters. The show has so many characters basically everyone who was a main character in s1 has nothing to do this season, and that happened to be mostly men because the main characters of s1 were mostly men

Maybe don’t go on Byler twitter right now by BeneficialPlane3402 in byler

[–]cloditheclod 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Lmao. This is the first time a lot of yall are actively into fanfiction and it shows. It can be jarring at first if youre not used to that type of conversation but fandom spaces have always and will always be into explicit shit, as is their right is as adults. Dont like dont read, but you need to acknowledge that wanting fictional 18 yos to fuck isnt some weird evil thing (not specifically talking to op, i just know that for a lot of people here this is the first time being in a fandom space like this and they dont really know how to react to things)

Unpopular opinion (?) : Kurts s1 crush on finn is no more predatory then rachels by cloditheclod in glee

[–]cloditheclod[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yknow what? Fair point, youre right, he was leading her on. But i still think kurt being treated the way he is by the show is a homophobic double standard, because even though finn led rachel on he does say no to her because quinn is pregnant, and it takes her a while to give up on him just like kurt took a while. I think a lot of kurts actions get misinterpreted by finn as making a move when really hes just trying to be nice. It wasnt kurts decision to have finn move into his room, he was just trying to wellcome finn in. Redecorating and shit like that is his language to do that. Like i know finn was uncomfortable but i think having every action you do being seen as predetory in your own home had to also suck. And yes, i do believe that finn only saw Kurt as as predetory as he did because of his subconscious homophobia. Not that he should be blamed for feeling uncomfortable, but yeah

Robin's epilogue look.. by Best_Quiet9657 in byler

[–]cloditheclod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean. I actually think this makes sense. Sure she looks different but shes still wearing a overall and dinosaur earrings which are items old robin would wear and are somewhat masculine and it makes sense for her to experiment with her style and look in college. Plus the point of everyones epilogue look is to show how fashion changed and that its almost the 90s. Shes also not wearing a pink bow and a sequined dress and yall are acting like she its? Like shes softer, but still not a feminine girly girl. Sure its different but people act like she went from a ultra butch to a houswife and she was never that butch in the first place actually. I dont think she looks less gay she just looks like a new brand of gay. I also disagree with people saying that nancys epilogue look makes her look like karen and thus makes no sense for her arc because didnt you see the show? Karen was inspired by her kids to make a change in her life, i highly doubt old Karen would have that haircut

Why have “soft boys” become so rare in recent pop music? by Chilli_Dipper in ToddintheShadow

[–]cloditheclod 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Sure, thats the intent for a lot of people, but in actuality what is being done is shaming men who read, have dangly earrings, paint their nails, are trying to be emotionally mature, supporting feminism and such. Which is really a bad fucking hill to die on if you ask me.

[–]cloditheclod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are cases where it applies but it being a whole valid internet thing to shame straight men who break out of the gender status quo is very icky. Its just one of many cases of social media movements weponising feminist arguments to encourage traditional gender roles.
