When I say "defending jason online isn't enough, I need a gun" I'm SO fr i literally left the percy Jackson subreddit community on reddit because I see like atleast 5 comments/posts of people going "jason is so worthless and deserved to die, look! Percy is so much better" atleast 3x times a week.
Don't y'all get fucking bored for posting the same stale ahh shit to get upvotes lmao. The goal is to get internet validation from strangers, and the only way to do that is use Jason (aka one of the most hated characters in pjo) as the punching bag
The reason Annabeth was blonde was literally to fight the dumb blonde stereotype that was popular in 2005 with celebrities like Paris Hilton, Kate Hudson, and Brittney Spears. I was 12 in 2005, and the dumb blonde was an insanely popular media trope. Rick wanted to show that stereotypes of all kinds are unacceptable. That’s why all the kids have ADHD, dyslexia, diverse backgrounds, trauma and quirks that set them apart from other characters in the YA genre. Annabeth was the product of an era, and her physical aesthetics were directly linked to a sexism problem of the time.
You know what the biggest target of abuse is in the US among teens in 2022?
Black girls.
Rick is making an overt point. You will not, under his watch, write off black girls into the same corner. The “sassy ghetto black woman” stereotype needs to end, and especially in a post Ferguson world, it’s more important than ever to showcase a character who defies those stereotypes.
The choice to cast Annabeth as black DOES NOT go against Annabeth as a character. It is the logical next step in her evolution from 2005 book to 2022 screen, and I for one am here for it.
Sometimes when people pass on, it's nice to look at what they've accomplished.
God speed Techno.
No one owes you their sexuality.

You are not entitled to anyone’s sexuality. Period. No questions asked.

i can hear him going “nooooo my brand- bruhhhh”

I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. I would know him in death, at the end of the world.
- The Song Of Achilles, Madeline Miller
c!crimeboys is so fucking insane wilbur is like "i am the worst thing that’s happened to tommy, i made him a soldier, i made him an exile, i made him love me when i know i don't deserve his love. he'd be better off without me but i can't leave him because i need him. i was never who i promised him i was and i hope he can love me despite of it. he's my brother." and tommy is like "wilbur made me who i am, and gave me a home, and a purpose, and being his right hand man was the most 'me' i ever was, and he's done terrible things, and he's hurt me. i don't know him anymore but i know him better than anyone, he died when he lost the election but he's still alive somewhere inside. sometimes it hurts to be around him but i'll follow him to the end of the earth because i need him. i'm a shell of the kid he's left behind and i hope he can love me despite of it. he's my brother." and when they both see each other they see nothing but pain (past and present), and feel nothing but love (timeless), and they grieve what they were and will never be again, and when they laugh it's like nothing ever changed. they're brothers.
