Eloise should have been the villain in season 3
Listen, I'm the biggest Eloise apologist ever but I can't keep on defending her. She should have been the villain and it could have solved SO MUCH of the issues with the stories.
Eloise has been rejected by society the reality hits her hard after Penelope, rightfully, called her on her bullshit with the “not everyone can be a pretty Bridgertons” speech. And when she was at her lowest she learned that her friend is the one that betrayed her.
She was trying to make amends and to listen to her friends... And where did that get her ?
She's tired of society, she's tired of trying to fit in she just doesn't care. She's mean, she's unapologetic, she laughs when a suitor asks her to dance with him. She's gone. Because what's the point anyways ? She has already lost everything.
There's a lack of drama ? Eloise will GIVE that drama right into the household. Plus I mean a Bridgeton villain? With their capacity to get away with everything ? And it frustrates her because she's just proving Penelope right but she can't stop, she's on a rampage.
And here comes Cressida, always the mean girl, who sees in Eloise the reflection of what she is inside and she makes the first step towards her. What's more beautiful than her and Eloise both evolving out of this cycle, maturing hands in hands.
Eloise learns that people CAN change and as Penelope doesn't write about any of her wrong doing, she starts to see the light.
But she doesn't need to become directly bff with Penelope again, it's not realistic. People change and mature (which is an undertones of this season I'm kinda seeing ?). Things will never be the same again.
Also their friendship wasn't benefiting for none of them. Penelope and Eloise need to make their own space their own friends and grow.
Every MAGA accusation is a confession.
First Felon is building a concentration camp at Guantanamo, Cuba.
It had a previous capacity of 800, but First Felon wants to increase to 30,000.
This is a call to action.
I know most people don't care about anything unless it has to do with the U.S. but can we please start talking about the Canadian election.
Please don't vote for Poilievre. He's basically the Canadian Trump and plans to put in place laws that harm trans youth, and lots of other shit.
Please vote istg this is the only way anything will get better. Poilievre has been kissing millionaires and billionaires asses. He'll make life even harder, and he loves Trump.
Reblogs are appreciated, especially if you aren't Canadian.
I never understood this mentality that people only care about an issue unless it affects them. People are so quick to put down people who are crying out for help (one example is Palestinian fundraisers). How can someone, or even a lot of people in our society, be so goddamn heartless? What makes you so special over everyone else? News flash.. you’re not. I hope one of Trumps nazi supporters one day needs help and everyone laughs at them like they did the Palestinian, Jewish, disabled, etc
Grow some humanity.
Y'all ate this post
So more thought on that :D and why I think it'll work like a charm.
In the book (yes I read those that's why I'm allowed to shit on it) Pen slow down herself the gossip during her book.
Thing is
She defenitly ain't slowing down in the second part of the season. (But if anything I do hope she stop doing it and use her talent for something else than destroying reputation.) Wich could mean she abruptly stop and that would defenitly ruin the tempo of the season.
Here enters Eloise. As Cressida married Lord Debbling, and is learning to tend to the estate, she cannot come to the season. Eloise would then start sending her the gossip so Cressida knows what's happening (actually it's because she misses her and do not know how to communicate it). THING IS Eloise is terrible with gossip, she's not excactly good at reading people is she ?
Wich leaves us with an unreliable narrator (gaps dramaticly) as we slowly start to notice leaving us with a lot of frustration and tension. Excactly how Cressida feels about Eloise ! In the end of the first a,d the start second part of the series she makes it clear to Eloise who slowly slow downs the gossip, talking more about herself, so we see less and less of the narrator. Thus leaving us with a natural transition of the Bridgertons without Lady Whistledown
🚨Support amani and hre children to rebulid their lives 🚨
I am Amani Hasan from Gaza strip, I`m married and a mother of three children.
In reality, we live in the Nasr neighborhood in Gaza City. After the threat of eviction by the occupying army, we fled to Khan Yunis on November 14, 2023, then moved to Rafah after the military operation launched by the occupation on the city of Khan Yunis on January 20, 2024.
We now live in displacement camps in Rafah that lack the minimum essentials of life, with no electricity, water, or medicine, while this area faces constant threats of invasion and ground incursion.
As we face this bitter reality, we are trying to embark on a new hope, which is to travel to safety outside of Gaza City, but the cost is extremely high.
With your support and assistance, we can turn this story of despair into a story of hope. Every contribution can pave the way to a safer future for my family.

I just finished the episode “Tick Tock” of Bridgerton and what the actual FUCK. It wasn't THAT bad but Eloise ?!?
I'm sorry but “I wish I could do something" girl ?!? You're telling me you can't help ? Can't talk about it to your family? Mind you nothing would be my priority but helping a girl get out of a marriage with a seventy years old man.
I wonder who that handsome qpr might be/silly
Hi ! I'm part of the population that apparently no longer exists since an orange man said there were two genders ;-;
If my mutuals can’t rb this then we can’t be mutuals
We do not see much politics in the Bridgertons but as sexism exist you cannot brush over or make racism disapear in what 40 years ? I try to be sensible about but as I am a white individual I might make mistake and apologise if so and will correct it.
At first we would still keep the same hierarchy of power than the one in real life and, I assume, in the show.
Secondly let's talk about THE thing that changes everything in the Bridgertons : the Great experiment.
The Great experiment appeared for the same reason than show in Queen Charlotte but it's a bit more subtle. It was introduced mostly so Charlotte could marry the king George but never did the royal councils intended to actually give more power to the "other side" of the society. Even if people could now get invited and participate in activity didn't mean they'd be invited or treated well.
Queen Charlotte is actually the one who shacked things up, after mostly focusing on her marriage at first she slowly woke up and saw that despise what was said her own were still being rejected and treaded unfairly. By attending Lady Danbury ball, she shoke things up. When some titles were left without any heir she would think first of giving it to the "other side" (that's how Simon's dad became Duke) etc.
Even thought the Queen Charlotte promoted tolerance things didn't completely work out that way. The "original" Ton felt jealous and left alone and while they couldn't reject the other side at the more little scandal possible they would directly reject a familly. And while young did marry racized Lord it was almost UNFATHOMABLE that an eligible white Lord would marry a girl of colour. It got a little better but there is still a lot of pression on racized people. A few Lord did actually mary girls from the "other side" the most known one being St-Clair, Abernathy and the Sterlings leaving a lot of preassure on their children because they represent this new kind of union and must be perfect. So it is a big deal that so many of the Bridgertons will have union with people of the other side as they are one of the most old and respected familly.
