eroticism of the machine doesn’t apply to iphone….iphone is like a 25 year old instagram model living in LA who practices preventative botox….conventionally beautiful but ultimately sexless. unable to express any form of desire for fear of shattering a delicately crafted facade….iphone is the kelloggs cereal of machinery

I think Neil Gaiman is just out there having normal person reactions and a lot of people are unfamiliar with a celebrity-status person doing that. They expect the kind of fan pandering that influencers do and get annoyed when Gaiman is demonstrably just… running a tumblr blog that people message him on. He’s even less interested in being cute on tumblr than tumblr-famous people, because he’s actually famous.
I wish more celebrities would interact on social media with that kind of “ok, whatever” vibe as a response.
why would martin do this in the first place? when he is also becoming an avatar of the lonely and it is also negatively impacting everyone around him? is that another thing that only he's allowed to do? like he KNEW that this would happen if he revealed jon's feeding. he knew the archive crew would turn on him again.
oh actually saying this rn i think leaving this tape for the crew was a deliberately malicious expression of his own avatarhood... he's being consumed by the forsaken of course he would want jon to be as isolated as possible and remove whatever tenuous goodwill he had built up with the girls
girl real shit you were a POLICE OFFICER i do not want to fucking hear it. how many people have YOU murdered extrajudiciously? at least jon was hungry, you were just a cop
again, it's all good for melanie to be an avatar of the slaughter!! it's all good for melanie to physically assault jon in the archives!! to maul him!!! to stab him!!!! melanie only has this high horse perspective btw because jon saved her life and stopped her transformation! she is only here alive looking down her nose at him because he saved her life.
daisy is so meek here i'm honestly shocked basira is still so deep in denial and so adamant on protecting her because she clearly resents her defanged gf so deeply
and wow the absolute spineless behavior on daisy's end of being part of this mob while knowing that she did more and worse for DECADES but it's an issue that jon's eating people because he doesn't have a badge and a dumb hat
it's only ok to traumatize innocent civilians when you're doing it with a police baton i guess
#s4 did a spectacular job at providing a wide range of people who sucked ass. all of them. it was SPECTACULAR #and then what came of it… #tma #they were all so angry and resentful and hypocritical with one another and despite it being one of the most uncomfortable experience of my #life media wise listening to them basically piling on jon for 40 episodes it was SO well done… it felt purposeful… #how did this not turn into a villain arc for jon tho is beyond me (via @girlcaligula )
this is really really really really it for me like s4 set up a world for 38 episodes where every single person in jon’s life (literally except elias and helen, who aren’t people anymore) turned on him wrestled him to the ground and started steel toed boot kicking him in the kidneys. just psychologically curb stomping him every step of the way. being overtly cruel and cold and vicious. and then somehow the narrative was like [somber] this is a good thing for these people to do and logically jon should be doing everything in his power to lay belly up and take their abuse instead of having a villain arc
like somehow you’ve set up a story where the only place jon can find compassion, joy, or belonging is with the monsters in his life who call to him and then you turn around and are like “here is jon’s beautiful reward for choosing to ‘preserve his humanity’, it’s his shitty coworker who he doesn’t even like!! they’re in love!! there are cows :)”
