beardo | E-rated Good Omens bullshit @e-rated-beardo.bsky.social · 13/07/2026(Firstly I'm so happy to see both of yous apologising and nuancing your responses, you help keep my hope for the fandom alive ❤️) Morally I don't care either way re tagging, but I'm mildly concerned bc excluding tags is trickier than including. (There's a recent study abt AO3 that shows this, fwiw.) 010 0
beardo | E-rated Good Omens bullshit @e-rated-beardo.bsky.social · 13/07/2026As it is, they're coloured by my complicated feelings about the rest of the finale. Needless to say, I wish I felt differently; I'd much prefer to just be able to enjoy everything about it. Anyway, this changes nothing about my opinion of human AUs, which I still write and read happily. (3/3) 030 0
beardo | E-rated Good Omens bullshit @e-rated-beardo.bsky.social · 13/07/2026disintegrated/unmade/whatever. A&A are so entangled with that ending that it becomes hard to appreciate them for themselves. Human AUs arent entangled with any canon events that hit that hard, so it's entirely different. I personally would probably have liked A&A if they had been a human AU. (2/3) 130 0
beardo | E-rated Good Omens bullshit @e-rated-beardo.bsky.social · 13/07/2026Dislike of the ending has nothing to do with ones opinions on human AUs, and Im confused that so many ppl who liked the ending think that it does. People have many reasons for disliking the ending but generally what they take issue with is that the original A&C and the original universe were (1/?) 130 0

beardo | E-rated Good Omens bullshit @e-rated-beardo.bsky.social · 08/07/2026Ive seen those posts too, and I find them disingenuous and mean. Im totally on board with not understanding the opposite POV, most of us likely share that problem, but everyone needs to bloody respect that others' feelings are genuine. No need for mean-spirited corollaries just to make ppl look bad. 230 0
beardo | E-rated Good Omens bullshit @e-rated-beardo.bsky.social · 08/07/2026Nobody has a duty to accept TV canon as canon, but on your other points, I (like, I would hope, most reasonable people) agree. TV canon is, after all, on par with the 1992 movie script, the radio show, and the musical, all of which many people in the fandom happily ignore. 150 0

Been thinking of writing a post somewhere asking finale enjoyers to explain and help change my mind, bc I'd love that to happen, but...

beardo | E-rated Good Omens bullshit @e-rated-beardo.bsky.social · 19/06/2026For sure. I just feel like a tiny bit of exposition, or a clear hint that reincarnation actually exists in this universe or whatever, could have been squeezed in. Evidently it's just as easy to read the epilogue as 'clearly reincarnation' as to see that reading as simply HC. Which is unfortunate. 150 0
beardo | E-rated Good Omens bullshit @e-rated-beardo.bsky.social · 19/06/2026Well, this is true for most people, including a lot of the ones that hated it, but there are some that took the ending so badly (eg depression badly) that no ending might have been preferable. There's a huge range of feelings, and some are more negative than I think many of us wholly understand. 010 0
beardo | E-rated Good Omens bullshit @e-rated-beardo.bsky.social · 19/06/2026Most people who were disappointed by the finale aren't being arseholes to the crew, thankfully. Pity the minority that are, are so loud about it. But I guess that's always the case with that sort of thing... 🫤 020 0
beardo | E-rated Good Omens bullshit @e-rated-beardo.bsky.social · 19/06/2026There is a Pratchettish vibe to them ending up human, but I'm not sure he would have let the whole world die and be rebooted. Or at least it would have been clearer that's what was going on... which, yeah, would probably have been way less divisive and felt a bit less upsetting to some folks 180 0
