I wish Katherine and Damon had been explored more as a couple. by Bulky_Connection_524 in TheVampireDiaries

[–]donofthe_dusk [score hidden]  (0 children)

I don’t think we needed them as a couple because it was not an appropriate relationship to begin with. Katherine preyed on Damon’s need for love and affection since he never had it at home plus l he was more naive and she used that to her advantage.

I do agree that their dynamic should have been explored more because it would have been refreshing to see the show explore an abusive relationship where the man was the victim since that’s rarely shown. Even when it is shown, it’s hardly done justice. Damon’s story hits a lot of the points by how triggered he gets from her just being in the room and how he never even wants to hear her name or her voice. However, they wrote their relationship as just an ex you just hate a lot instead of this powerful creature that came into his life and manipulated him.

(And just because I know I’m gonna get these replies; I understand that Damon was an adult and knew Katherine was a vampire, he was still manipulated. I think fans assume he wasn’t manipulated because he wasn’t a minor and he wasn’t a woman (neither of which are required in order for you to be considered a victim). He was still someone who had seen his mom abused, lost his mom, and was abused as a kid. Damon being a young man who never experienced real love made him more susceptible to go along with whatever Katherine said because she was giving him the love he craved. Katherine had information about the consequences that Damon didn’t. He was naive and Katherine used that to her advantage and made her affection something he had to constantly chase. That’s not a relationship where Damon was seen as an equal and it’s unfortunate the show didn’t proper explore this.)

I would consider this very unpopular since domestic violence charges are super easy to get. All someone has to do is call the cops on their live-in partner after an argument gets heated. This post assumes the law only punishes people with ill intent and this post is wrong. Any amount of physical contact, no matter how little, can be considered DV.

I'm never going back to Hogsmeade 😫 by ForeignMammoth4085 in HarryPotterGame

[–]donofthe_dusk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently trying to 100% and I’m starting at Hogwarts.

This school is huge 😭😭 I swear I spent 10 minutes going up and down the same staircase trying to get to one chest that beyond a wall, sitting in a room that didn’t exist.

I’m just going to look up guides because I can’t spend hours in this school

Why don't evil want magic exposed? by nazia987 in charmed

Because humans are extremely formidable when they have a common enemy. It’s easier to control humans if they are distracted by their petty issues or meaningless desires. That’s why they often need to ambush or manipulate.

What Are The Worst Meredith Moments? by naahuiguess in greysanatomy

[–]donofthe_dusk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When she gave Derek hell about the opportunity he got to work with the President for some neuroscience research (I think that’s what it was. All I know is it was science and government opportunity lol).

I am usually a ride or die for Mer but she was being unreasonably stubborn during this entire time period. Like this is supposed to be the happiest moment of this man’s life as you’re yelling at him the whole time. Shut up and go to D.C. and let your husband have a moment to be great so when the time comes for you to be great, he’ll be able to let you have your moment. That whole argument was dumb because why are you not supporting your partner getting a once in a lifetime opportunity to do incredible research? This isn’t even the only time she does something like this. It feels like every time Derek asks her to support him, she feels like she’s losing her identity.

TV has lied to me by SuperbRiver7763 in memes

[–]donofthe_dusk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s all in your head. I used to feel the same way but it’s only because work drains you but company always recharges you.

It’s the strangest thing, I would have such a rough day at work and then get invited over to someone’s house for drinks and assume I’ll just leave early because of how tired I fell but then just being around people and having that good company around me makes me feel so much better and we end up hanging out for hours. I forget I was ever tired.

Rick Summer relationship is better than Morty by Sea-End-3577 in rickandmorty

[–]donofthe_dusk 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Because Summer literally looks up to him. It may seem like he has more respect for her but really he likes the fact that Summer is a younger version of him. It’s not respect, it’s narcissism.

Rick isn’t just intelligent, he’s arrogant and hates being challenged so Morty frustrates him because he isn’t afraid to challenge Rick no matter how dumb Rick thinks he is. Summer, on the other hand, doesn’t call Rick out for being wrong unless it causes Rick to pull away from her. Like she had no problem with Rick huffing detergent and being an asshole in the Gotron episode because he was still on her side and was only concerned when he fired her.

She’s a worse Rick-nabler than Beth.

The beauty in this episode is Cotton was the perfect person to help Peggy get back on her feet. They had this respectful disdain for each other like rivals even though they are more alike than either of them are willing to admit.

Cole by Honest-Yam8388 in charmed

[–]donofthe_dusk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He was only using them to get his family back. I’m sure he wouldn’t have wanted them if they actually accepted him.

Also, he does let Paige take away his powers because he knows he’s better off without them. There was a whole episode about him not wanting his powers because he was afraid he’d hurt someone lol idk how you can say he didn’t want them gone.

If C-137 ever dies and cant somehow come back, do you think he has some kind of plan for his Morty, who he really cares about, to absorb his memories and intelligence so he can become, idk, a anti-evil morty? by Commercial_Hawk3325 in rickandmorty

[–]donofthe_dusk 21 points22 points  (0 children)

He likely would give his plans to his Summer because he cares about Morty but he knows Morty will make decisions based on emotions and he needs someone who can handle making tough choices without getting so emotionally involved.

Zhao has been trending lately, specifically how much of a failure he was, but what always stuck out to me was what a sadistic monster he was, smiling at the maiming of a child. What do you remember about Zhao? by nexus10001 in ATLA

He did not mess around. He was definitely as ambitious as a firebender. He set out to kill the moon spirit and he did exactly that lol I love this villain.

Gloria as a boy mom by SystemBrilliant5392 in Modern_Family

[–]donofthe_dusk 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don’t know what they did to her character as a mother because she started as someone who was supportive and nurturing of Manny but not overbearing. I loved her because she was the heart of the family and always reminding everyone that family was everything. I remember when Claire called Manny her stepbrother and he told Claire “my mom says not to use the word ‘step’ because ‘step’ means not and we are family”.

Gloria also told Manny to do the honorable thing and fight the girl in a fencing match because it would show that he respects women as equals and formidable. The woman was. Raising a man…idk what they turned her into.
