“You sensed that you should be following a different path, a more ambitious one, you felt that you were destined for other things but you had no idea how to achieve them and in your misery, you began to hate everything around you.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Netochka Nezvanova

Enemy to parent is a trope we have to popularise lmao
As many of you may have seen, there's been a lot of disrespectful discourse happening regarding Ewan's privacy on various social media right now.
You may have seen a discourse on twitter of people trying to doxx private information on Ewan, his family or friends. But a lot of people on tumblr recieved anon messages with various media links claiming it is him. Do not open or engage with these. Please do not share or respond to this person. If you do want to respond, screenshot it and blank the usernames within those links isntead, whether or not it is him, family or a stranger (since it is disrespectful to either party and it clearly appears to not be him regardless of anything).
We have said this before, Ewan is a very private person and there is a reason for that. Not only is he in his right to be private about a life that is his own and not that of strangers to invade.
Seeing as people are sharing things (whether real or fake, just don't) and demand to find anything that is only for his and those closest around to see, hear and know. This isn't the way to go about it to want to know more about him, especially with him keeping everything about himself and his life offline to this point. If anything it is disturbing and horrifying to see people trying to seek out anything to track him down and stalk the internet (if not in person) to find it.
Know it is behaviour like this that will scare him off even more in wanting to engage with any type of media and potentially in person. But most of all it could do harm to and strain him and his life, that of those closest around him and his career. Which is something we don't nor should want.
We urge everyone to respect Ewan's wish to remain private, as he is in his right to remain and is more than understandable especially with what is happening now. And lastly do NOT disclose any personal information about Ewan and respect his privacy as much as you would to protect your own.
Don't turn this into the discourse many have already seen happening with Joseph Quinn, it really isn't working favours for either him/loved one nor the fans.
please note that if there is any negative engagement with this post (or any other posts on this page, including disrespecting his privacy), it won't go unseen and without consequence of being blocked.
something about percy winning against ares by drawing first blood, not giving a fuck that it’s the god of war he is making an enemy out of vs him being caught totally unaware by luke and luke drawing first blood because percy hesitated, because this is his friend, because making an enemy out of a god is way more preferable over making an enemy out of a friend. percy winning against insurmountable odds vs him losing because his loyalty is truly and undoubtedly fatal.
this. this here is everything. like the smile, the expression, he is in LOVE with her, percabeth the best ship everrrrrrr
percy: the sun is shining, my crops are flourishing, my grades are up, my depression is cured 💯
The pain and terror children in gaza live with constantly. He's trying to keep himself together, developing a tolerance for horrors that no child should ever witness. Where are the human rights activists? Or save the children organization? CALL FOR A CEASEFIRE NOW.
“60s horror movies reflect an era of rapid change and uncertainty, and a yawning generation gap. the social stability of the post-war years crumbled as attitudes to everything from hemlines to homosexuality underwent a seismic shift. horror movies, especially those made for low budgets outside the mainstream studio system, offered ways to process and interpret the rapid pace of change. they often served as cautionary tales about the dangers of abandoning traditional values.”
I think the most radical thing the hunger games does is tell young people that the most revolutionary thing you can do is have unconditional love for humanity. Katniss throughout the entire series is guided by a deep sense of compassion for the people around her. It is what causes her to volunteer, to bury rue, to mercy kill cato, its why she tries to save peeta, why finnick telling her to remember who the real enemy is works, and even though her compassion for the larger world falters when peeta is kidnapped, it comes back when she visits hospitals and asks for mercy for other victors and ultimately, it is love and belief in a better humanity that makes her kill coin. Through it all, she maintains an unfaltering belief in the fundemental goodness of humanity, which is diametrically opposed to dr gaul's and snow's worldview. Peeta is even more unwaveringly compassionate
So the series tells young people that the most revolutionary thing you can be is compassionate. Let compassion drive your politics. Let yourself believe in the fundemental goodness of people. And i think that's deeply important in a world that touts the superiority of pure reason or logic, to allow yourself to be guided by something as emotional as compassion. Katniss everdeen tells us that your politics should be rooted in compassion in a world that thinks detatchment or cynicism is intelligence and i think thats v cool
How I want Ewan to look at me
How he probably WOULD look at me
