When did he say he hated her?

All I remember is him saying he'd kill her. Which can happen out of (perceived) necessity, whether or not hatred is present.

Re: New Year's Resolutions

I knew I wouldn’t be able to stick to it for a year, so I didn’t ingest any sugar/honey/added sweeteners in January 2019, and didn’t gain energy, lose weight, or see any positive (or negative) effects. I have managed to walk 1.4 miles a day over last year’s record, which was 5.1 miles/day. This year I’ve done an average of 6.5 miles/day, or 2372.5 miles total this year. I am, if anything, slightly fatter now than I was in January. But if my doctor tells me I can’y possibly be exercising enough I can probably kick his legs from under him with my “walked 2,300 miles” legs and sit on him with my “are you sure you’re not pregnant?” body.

My 2020 resolutions are to call at least one congresscritter (mine are democrats so it’s not as crucial, but I need to work on my phone phobia), keep up the walking, eat more veggies and fruit, work more on my garden, and make at least one non-work friend.

May they roar with awesome recovery followed by prosperity, and not another market crash or other nasty disaster.

A Bride's Story was the best comic I've read.

Whut? I mean, I get you enjoy slashing things, but why tf should we worry about people who can't deal with gay relationships in media? Let 'em get used to it or die off.

Yeah, I'm gonna say I have to agree to disagree on this one. You're welcome to your opinion, but my main fandom is old shows with lots of subtext (intentional and not) and while the wink-wink is cute, it's also frustrating and exhausting. Older shows (like twenty years old or more) can sort of get away with it because it was so hard to get any representation where the queer characters didn't end up dead, a stereotype, or both, and that was with the characters we *knew* were queer. Subtext was basically the way to go. And for shows that are 20 years old or more, I can roll with it, because I grew up in the 80s/90s in a conservative-ish house and town, so I get it.

But now? Nope. No excuse. Now subtext like that--if it's intentional--is rightly called queerbaiting. Somebody doing intentional gay subtext in the 90s because otherwise their show won't pass the censors--sucks, but okay, other shit was going on. Shows now? It's basically to get brownie points without having to take any risks, and it's not really something I'm okay with.

And I get the appeal of wanting some characters to be ambiguous, to have that room to question. But there's also a real-world need going on, here, and hey, if you like your gay subtextual, as someone else said there's hundreds of years worth of media where the gay was subtextual.

TL;DR: You go with what you like, but I'm not surprised a lot of people don't agree with you. And yeah, I do think you're being a little blind re: the creators winking at you. Sometimes it really wasn't intended, and when the creators realized it, they backpedaled like crazy.

Like, actor/actress age gap, or character age gap? He's only six years older than me and I don't know who the girl is, so I am not sure what the gap is between them.

I don't know why, but 'ate a lobster' to me sounds so much more horrific than 'ate/had lobster'. Like in my head you just grabbed a whole lobster and Ozzie'd its head off.

I don't agree with your reasoning, but that's what I want out of out of focus remancises. I don't want to see every lazy, supid, and gross serotipe played out to prove true love.

Same same. I enjoy slow-burns and nuance.

Debating whether or not to stay up again this year. I did not the past two years. I like sleep. It is only 9PM here. I'm tired and not sure I'm going to make it 3 hours.

You don't understand nonchalance, do you?

(Anonymous) 2020-01-01 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
I've only ever seen people bashing the female obstacle to an M/M ship, sorry. In... hallucinatorily vicious ways.

I'm not saying it doesn't happen - if you've seen it, you've seen it. But daaaaaaamn, the misogyny is unpleasant to see.

Well, when you threaten to kill someone when you first meet someone, that doesn't add much is any romantic value to their relationship.

Nobody has to prove anything to you.

Someone doesn't like what you like. Deal with it.
