Women: “our hormones fluctuate so much that it’s normal to have thoughts of murdering our own children.”
Same women: “if women ruled the world, we’d have world peace.”
Sunday gift: My ultimate guide to what makes The Sopranos the greatest show ever.
The lesson is that we've all always been LARPing, including the people we LARP as.
This meta-awareness and the critique of therapy culture are its greatest insights. https://t.co/SiEl0bEhn5
The final episode of The Boys was amazing!!! 🔥🔥🔥
- Homelander goes on a 20-minute rampage, smashing satellites out of orbit and sending them crashing down across the world, effectively hurling China and Europe back to the Stone Age.
- The Boys set a trap for him back in Washington D.C., with Kimiko as their secret weapon.
- Sensing the ambush, Homelander crashes the entire White House down onto The Boys, critically wounding Kimiko and taking her out of the fight.
- With all hope seemingly lost, Homelander pulls Butcher from the rubble.
- He begins slowly breaking Butcher’s fingers while delivering a triumphant monologue.
- Soldier Boy suddenly snipes Homelander with a devastating energy blast.
- Queen Maeve appears, revealing she was the one who freed Soldier Boy. She still had clearance to the Vought building because Ashley never removed it.
- Realizing he’s been depowered, a terrified Homelander crawls and begs for his life.
- Butcher knocks Homelander out with a crowbar and raises it for the killing blow... only for Soldier Boy to step in and stop him.
- Soldier Boy looks at Homelander one last time and knows a better fate for his son.
- One year later: A cancer-stricken Butcher lies on his deathbed, surrounded by Hughie and the rest of the gang, along with his son.
- Hughie and Starlight are expecting their child soon, as an old Homelander poster passes them by.
- Cut to Homelander and he is shown on the floor of a maximum-security prison, enduring daily beatings as guards take turns violating him with nightsticks.
- Scene cuts to Soldier Boy, as he rides off into the sunset on his motorcycle, heading for Mexico with a grandma sitting on the back
Oh wait...
That was all a dream!
THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN!!!
What really happened is that The Boys writing staff suffered from a severe case of TDS. They doubled down every time critics called it out, and in the end, they delivered one of the worst possible series finales.
What we could've had...
When I saw this scene it finally hit me - Homelander was the bad guy. This man who I had spent five years idolizing was actually not a hero at all. He would even engage in homosexual activity to save his own life which is the worst thing a man can do
Thomas Massie has been OUSTED. The guy spends months and months calling Trump a "pedophile defender" and now sees the fruits of his labor. Good riddance.
@AllyJKiss Someone’s gonna interview Tucker and ask “do you believe Trump casts spells” and he’s gonna respond “spells? I don’t even know what spells are? Is that like magic?”
