So Far Team Flash Has Managed To Get 3 People To Commit Suicide. Its Kind Of Impressive.

So far Team Flash has managed to get 3 people to commit suicide. It’s kind of impressive.

And I don’t mean that as a joke, but it’s nothing good. Those people weren’t sucidal. Those People wanted to live. Eddie wanted to marry Iris (okay, Eobard talked him sort of out of it), Leonard asked Sara if there was a future for them and HR was practically planning his future with Tracy. And they all ended up sacrificing themselves.

It’s a lot for 3 seasons. I mean one sacrifice once every 3-4 season seems normal, but one every season is a lot.

(I’m counting Snart as season 2, because Ronnie died by accident, so it wasn’t a planned sacrifice and because LoT season 1 plays during Flash season 2, aswell as the fact that what Barry told Snart in season 2 was responsible for him joining the Legends.)

For people who always try to be the good guys and do everything and fix everything, always someone else seems the one who actually fixes it.

And besides Eddie, they all cared way too little over the characters that died. For Snart that is more of a LoT problem, where they spend more time focusing on Laurels death in season 1, than Snarts, but for HR, they practically did nothing. I get that they are happy that Iris didn‘t die and that there is a certain we-did-it-mentality, but someone who was there friend, who spend lots of time with them died and they didn’t grief at all.

Teen Wolf Season 5

I love how Teen Wolf season 5 is part season 5 -new threats, it gets worse every time for the old members of the pack-  and part season 1 the new members of the pack practically being the pack from season 1. They even have a creep who should be in a coma and is responsible for all the deaths.

It’s awesome!

I work in cleaning and I can honestly say this is not true.

I am sorry. I do not give a shit if you know my name.

BUT I do care if you clean up after yourself if you can like a good person would. Or if you greet me when I greet you. Because I have to greet you, it’s part of the job. So even if I have a shitty day I have to say hello and be nice. At least you can be friendly back.

I know a lot of people who do not know my name but treat me great and I like them. And I also know a lot of people who know my name and act like shit around me, or are unfriendly.

Who do you think is a better person? So: be friendly, be kind, but also: not knowing the name of someone you don’t actually know is fine as long as you treat them good.

My boss called me “Tyrone” on accident (My name is Tyrand). She apologized and bought me lunch to make up for it. I didn’t think twice about it, since I’m used to getting called every variant of “Ty-(fill in blank here)”. Then later on I read a quote she keeps in her work area that made me feel kinda special.

“During my second month of nursing school, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions, until I read the last one: “What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?” Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our quiz grade. “Absolutely,” said the professor. “In your careers you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say ‘Hello’.”

I’ve never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her name was Dorothy.“

It’s great how you can pinpoint the exact moment when Len was pulled from the timeline, when everyone seems so confused by it.

Because it’s easily said in the episode.

He has the ColdGun wich means it has to be after the first Captain Cold episode.

But he mentions, that they never destroy anything they steal and in the episode with Mick, Mick burns a painting. So it’s the Len from between these episodes.

I try to stay away from being too open about my belives about a lot of topics on the internet because it’s easier to explain things in person and if someone misunderstands something you can explain it on the spot and clear it up.

But there is one theme, that comes up so often in my dash that I think I have to point out my view about it.

And it is the theme of religon in animation films.

I love animated movies. I reagulairy watch them, I owe a lot of them and I like to reawach and interpret them and get more and more information, because in animation there is a lot to interpret there.

BUT that does not mean that does not mean that what you interpret is canon. And often it is not.

These movies are a lot of work and they are made to entertain adults and kids aswell, which is very hard. But they also can contain very dark or important themes like Rapunzel (her realtionship to mother Gothel) or Up (loss of someone you love deeply).

But because these are for kids aswell mostly certain themes are not shown - often religious belives for example. There are some slight mentions of it in The princess and the frog (voodoo) but on most movies it is let out. For once probaly to attract more viewers. There is a chance that certain people tend to think that letting their children watch different religions will drive them away from the one they are praticing. Which could be right could be wrong - I don’t know thats not the point I am going for.

What I am trying to say, that you should not interpret religious sterotypes into animated movies that are usually very reseached. Even the old Disney movies are very well reseached and they came out in times where the number of racists were much bigger than today and while that was awful and because of that there were mostly white women in these movies they were well done. They looked at the cultures they aproched (and just because they are white does not mean they have the same culture - not even france and germany have the same culture and they are next to each other).

So back to the religious sterotypes. I think you could without a problem aproche religion in animated movies that are also for children. Children want to learn and learning about more than one religion is always good. (I personally am reseaching voodoo right now and I grew up in an area where about 90% of the people are at least officially Christians). But if the theme is not aproched then it doesn’t need to be.

If an animated character is bad it usually has nothing to do with his religion.

Picking up on The princess and the frog.

The voodoo could have been better shown and nothing bad or evil (there are no actual human sacrafices in voodoo for example) but the point is Dr. Facilier was evil- the voodoo spirits he talked to were not. They were promised something and he gave it to them in the end. They did not want him to do something evil, he chose to do that, they only made sure he held his end of the bargin.

The voodoo he uses is not bad. He is, he uses something neutral for his bad cause. Like the apple wasn’t bad, the evil queen who poisned it was bad.

So what I want to say is: in animated movies the religion of characters- if shown - do not have anything to do with the fact if they are evil or not.

JUST LIKE IN REAL LIVE.

You are bad if you do bad things, you aren’t bad because you belive or practice something different than someone else.
