being a jew studying preholocaust european jewish history is just *mourns over what could have been, mourns over what could have been, mourns over what could have been, mourns over what could have been, mourns-*

i don’t know if anyone’s done this before, but i’m genuinely curious — like if you ship codywan, reblog if they’re one of your favorite star wars ships?

ROTTMNT Fic Recs part 2

Here is the follow up I promised to my first ROTTMNT fic recs post which you can find here where I list my recommended works with a completed status.

These are some of my recommendations for ongoing fics. Just another reminder that Leo and Donnie are my favs so I gravitate towards fics focusing on them more than the others.

Like Father Like Son by eternalglitch

I feel like this fic doesn’t even need an introduction. It’s the most popular ROTTMNT fic on AO3 right now with a ton of fan art and videos dedicated to it. But in case you haven’t heard of it basically Leo gets kidnapped by Draxum and forced to do his bidding and a lot of physical/ psychological abuse ensues while his brothers desperately try to find and save him.

A Twin Thing by minumi 

This fic centers around the disaster twins and the special bond they have even though Donnie will say it’s impossible for them to have such a bond since they aren’t actually twins. Each chapter takes place in a different time in the boys’ lives so we get some turtle tot content. Has some lovely autistic Donnie moments though the author is clear they are drawing from their own experiences so it may not speak to everyone.

 Separate Times by QueerBadBitch

When future Mikey opens a portal to the past, future Leo accidentally gets flung through it by an explosion while the 16 year old him ends up in the future. There is a lot of great angst, wonderful moments between the displaced Leos and their family from the past/ future plus some really heart wrenching disaster twin content. The author takes some liberties so it’s not 100% canon compliant. This is also the first fic to have gotten me curious about Leosagi as Usagi is future Leo’s husband, though he isn’t in the story too much. The author has some great side stories for the fic including how Leo and Usagi met.

yknow out of every show/movie/whatever thats tried to do the whole ‘girl power’ subplot, ATLA is the the only one I’ve seen stick the landing. cause like, they didn’t try and condense it down to a one episode problem then never speak of it again, but they also didn’t subject us to constant misogyny during the entire series. and they were also realistic about it! the point they wanted to make was that gender has nothing to do with a persons capabilities, and that is the point they wound up making every time!

probably the best example is the katara vs pakku fight, cause like. any other show would probably have katara kick his ass, and that would convince him to teach her and also drive home the girl power theme. the conflict of the story is katara not being allowed to fight bcause girls are considered too weak; if she loses a fight to a man, then it just proves him right, she has to win. but that’s why the message always falls flat in other stories, because it wouldn’t make any sense for katara to beat pakku in that fight. she’s a teenager with literally no training, and has spent all season struggling to teach herself the basics, while pakku has decades of experience and is one of the most skilled waterbending masters in the world. if katara won the fight, it would be contrived bullshit, and make the intended feminist themes painfully heavy handed, and a blatant token effort. but instead, we get a hardcore two minute smackdown of katara trying to murder the everloving shit out of pakku, and making him work to kick her ass. like yeah she loses, but it’s a vicious fight, she manages to hold her own despite all the odds stacked against her, and it’s the first real display of intense combat waterbending in the show. and despite losing the fight, she still wins the overall argument, because she successfully gets through to pakku about the patriarchal system being damaging to everyone - up to and including him.

my point is katara going absolutely fucking feral against pakku is the best fight scene ever, and atla is a really good show

if you need to hear it, then this is for you: forgive yourself for your regrets. you have grown since then, changed since then, and learned from your mistakes. you’re not the same person anymore, so here is your signal. it’s time to let the pain go.

Saw this tweet, thought of them and laughed so hard

I will always love the trope where lance fell first and keith fell harder

glass onion was amazing and I wouldn’t change anything about it. BUT I do think it would have been hilarious if there was a post credit scene with all of them getting covid, because of course miles’ gun vax thing doesn’t work.

chuuya rockstar au

did anyone actually ever read those animorph books
