#AT A FUCKING MILITARY BUILDING

[smokingtiger]

This has to be some type of mental illness… this acc on twt is probably one of the bigger jimin antis who swears up and down that everything that Jimin and Jungkook do together is fanservice. Like, why are they so damn against the possibility that maybe, just maybe, Jimin and Jungkook are incredibly close friends (they literally filed to be companion soldiers)…. But sure, it’s all fanservice.

Also, once again it’s pretty gross to pull this rhetoric after the hardships both the fandom and boys are going through right now. Ship who you want to ship but don’t be a terrible asshole who tries to spread your false narrative for… what, exactly? I seriously don’t know what this account is trying to achieve other than bullying Jimin and straight up calling Jungkook a liar half the time. Like they’re not helping Taehyung either… Jimin is quite literally his best friend — unless they play the song ‘Friends’ on mute.

#bts #Jimin #jungkook #Taehyung #vmin #taekook #vkook #jikook #Kookmin #vminkook #I’m so tired of people like this #seeing them be separated TORE ME APART #but all this person was thinking about was FANSERVICE #AT A FUCKING MILITARY BUILDING #GET #HELP

a lot of people will play dragon age 2 and they'll be like... whoa.... anders is truly a grey character who does both good and evil......

when in actuality anders blowing up the chantry was not only good but based, sexy, and inspirational and he has never done wrong a day in his life

#dragon age #anders #i refuse to believe the non-game added lore by dave gaider - via his tumblr blog - placing several hundred orphans in the chantry #there are no fucking kids in that building in the game. if we were meant to care about a bunch of fucking exploded orphans they'd be there #if we go just by who we the player see in the church a bunch of fucking shitty pastors got blown up #and given the chantry is the nonviolent part of a military org #theyre not like blameless or innocent bystanders lol #any attempt to put children in the chantry is simply an attempt to justify the violent oppressive theocracy they represent #by adding 'innocent bystanders' for anders to additionally kill #thus making him look more violent compared 2 the banality of the true horror enacted by this military theocracy's oppressive violence

Lily Academy has fallen on hard times 😔

This is some of my thumbnailing from my sketchbook that I finally scanned! Some of the character ideas got moved around, and the core idea of this story has totally changed from my original ideas of a sort of psuedo-airsoft with an arms race, as they chase those sweet ad dollars... Now it's a bit bleaker 🤪

#lily military academy #doodle #comic #caffe art #onigiri #I don't even really wanna say my ideas out loud because they're so demented #I'm a coward tho and didn't want to draw anime college girls getting killt so instead it's all nanomachines son #I don't think that would even get the points across that I wanna think about #isn't it so fucked up how in an escalation of violence in our country we still expect kids to go to school like normal? #to behave like nothing is different... as we start to build schools around the reality of mass shootings... #we fill schools with bullet proof glass... places to hide... metal detectors... whatever else #but given that my main inspiration here is metal gear revengeance I'm cranking everything up to 11 #8) #comic wip

punch out but theres a 3rd title defense

HEAVILY INSPIRED BY @matchamabs's punch out title defense 2 posts!! go check their account out!!

Glass Joe - He gets a baguette and beats the living shit out of you with it, if you somehow attack him while he prepares to hit you with it you get a star + his baguette breaks and he has 2 baguettes to beat you with now

Von Kaiser - He gets another haircut and also turns into a cyborg, if you punch his face enough you can reveal the robotic parts of his face, through his cutscenes he malfunctions a lot more

Disco Kid - He wears 80's fitness gear and becomes faster and dances nonstop, also he has headphones in all the time

King Hippo - He has 3 belts to hold up his new jorts and the little tape on his stomach is now covered in duct tape, the belts are still ridiculously loose and can still be knocked off because he hasnt been pantsed enough already

Piston Hondo - He has a entire ass mech that looks like him, if you do a 3 star punch you can break his mech and have it eject him, you gotta dodge the falling mech or you just get knocked out

bear hugger - He tapes an entire maple tree to him and drinks the maple syrup during the fight that has birds & squirrels in it, similiar to normal title defense king hippo: if you knock off the tree from him he becomes a Disney princess and makes the animals attack you

great tiger - He has a genie lamp and fights you with said genie in it, if you punch the genie enough it goes back into its lamp and tiger gets mad at it

don flamenco - He uses his "perfume" (POISONNN!!!) to attack you, if he sprays you with it Mac gets tired for a few seconds, if you can punch it away from his hands he gathers up the pieces and rubs it on his gloves

aran ryan - He gets a brick tied to a rope and is out for blood, if you can somehow punch the brick it bounces back at him and knocks him out

soda popinski - He has one of those hats where you can store drinks in it and sip from it and he has scientists refilling it almost every second, you can jab them to get them off of his back to stop him from getting stronger

bald bull - He befriends the bull from don flamenco's cutscenes and the bull that charged at him during his td cutscene and attacks you with them, if you knock out any of them he gets more involved in the ring and charges at you more

super macho man - He wears 2 sunglasses during the fight & his roots are showing, if you knock of one of those sunglasses he laughs at you because theres another one on it

mr sandman - He gets a tank, an entire ass tank and proceeds to go crazy with it

a small gallery of the milsurp/vagabond looks i've been rocking at work.

top: slovakian windbreaker. boots i bought off a former canadian mounty at a western NY flea market. not visible: hungarian wool socks from the multi-packs on sportsmansguide. everything else is thrifted except the hat.

bottom: u.s. (airforce? listing unclear) sweater (100% acrylic but still pretty warm). german wool socks. swedish military boots from 1965 that i got secondhand two years ago, wear almost daily, and STILL haven't worn down enough yet to need resoling. member's only leather jacket a friend got rid of.

the most expensive item is the swedish boots, which cost me $25. dreaming of the day i can forage for supplies in abandoned skyscrapers, instead of sitting behind a desk in one

#it is funny when other people in the building think i am a troop #funnier still when they think i WANT to pass as one #sir if i was trying to steal valor why would i be wearing a beanie covered in buttons that say fuck #and the emblems of a foreign nations military #have some sense #blog

A Battlestar Galactica post I made in January 2022 is gently breaching containment and I am getting the most wholesome tags from strangers watching an entirely different version of that show from me.

#went down a wikipedia rabbithole tonight and learned some chilean history #specifically around project cybersyn #President Salvador Allende #and the 1973 Military coup #and uh #fucking tragic #i think ive existed in a strange(? maybe its actually relatively common idrk) position as an American leftist where like #the crimes of american imperialism feel so innumerable to where at a certain point you stop learning about them on purpose #so like for years ive 'known' that what the USG has done to South America was awful #i 'learned' about honduras and so I just applied that as a template and went 'yeah some awful shit happened and its the CIAs fault' #but uh getting a bit more detailed knowledge about what our government did in chile has made me realize how callous that was #i dont know that ive nessecarily earned my previous attitude of 'cold detached and depressed' given #that not only did I not live through any of it but also that it was done in my benefit #god maybe this is some milquetoast shit #idk #I think being a leftist in the US is having to fight the passivating force of imperialism constantly #like lose sight of it for a second and it just fucking blends back in with the landscape #the internally defensive structure you build in your brain to protect yourself from complete emotional collapse while buying food #will equally be effective in ignoring the role of imperialism in everything else #anyway #I think this is perhaps a good opportunity to learn more about the other crimes the USG has committed in South America #to actually know the names and pronunciation of the deomcratically elected socialist leaders we deposed and what they really wanted to do #to know how their people felt and thought about things rather than imposing my own assumptions onto a reigon I am utterly ignorant of #it is embarrassing now to know the fullness of history I have ignored #Salvador Allendes words really fucking got to me and to think that there are men like him who I cannot even name is really disappointing #im going to stop self flaggellating and see about that reading #just my thoughts #feeling a little blue tonight

i wanted to look up a certain scene from this movie and saw this instead, and i think its so funny. can you imagine living in the pokemon universe, its like the equivalent irl when the cops get a call a bear or moose is in the neighborhood, except here its giant and revered as a god and is currently on a revenge mission for another legendary in the city

#personal #pokemon #destiny deoxys #rayquaza #the super high tech building looked way more set up for like military shit though #the US would definitely shoot down rayquaza :( #rayquaza in this movie is so funny though #this scene is not a 'oh let the pokemon pass' situation. the scientists were like oh fuck it wants to kill deoxys #rayquaza got a sniff of deoxys leaving its grave and was like thats it. *tracks its ass hundreds of miles* #all bc deoxys just brushed past through the stratosphere #4 years ago!! #while deoxys just wants to find its bff #the movie is kinda bad bc it literally is just that but i think its funny #also this scene showing rayquaza as if its a hurricane w a predictable path lol

eventually I'll get to draw it, but the way that lucullus goes, 'ah. you get it. it's like falling into quicksand only you don't know that anything is wrong, but once you leave, it all becomes clear. anyway,' and walks right back into the house that crassus half ran out of. sometimes it's less about whether or not you will be eaten and more about who you will let take a bite out of you

#its lucullus again and again and again choosing sulla for some fucking reason #and eventually sulla choosing him back when it matters the most #also lucullus and crassus are the same kind of administrative power houses you need when you're doing state building #honestly half the reason that the pompey and caesar fell apart is that neither of them are particularly paper work people #pompey absolutely was not and caesar was off doing military campaigns. so. you NEED. a third person. who will do the paperwork #for sulla et al that was lucullus. then later crassus. #failure. to understand that the boring part of the government. is important. will lead to overlapping conspiracies taking out emperors late #so. in conclusion. i got nothing. there is no conclusion. im writing comics that is all

maybe it's just bc i was raised by a woman who grew up a farm girl during the Great Depression but i just don't understand how people don't use things until they're unusable -- wearing clothes until they fall off and are too threadbare to repair anymore, don't finish their plates (and even more heinous, don't store leftovers and instead opt to throw leftovers away entirely), don't force their old car to run far past the end of its life, don't keep their shoes until they can feel every pebble through the worn-down soles, don't keep their electronics with the glitchy screens until the picture becomes unusable or the damn thing doesn't turn on anymore. we used to fill near-empty bottles of soap and shampoo with water to try to help them last longer. we used to count the exact number of toilet paper squares we used. the living room couch i grew up with was already old and full of holes by the time i was born, and we kept it near 20 years more.it is such a striking cultural difference comparing my family and how we descend and behave from the arms of my great-grandmother and our matriarch, to other people's families that didn't struggle the same, or didn't keep their elders in close enough proximity to be affected by their history. how well did you know your grandparents? did you ever meet your great-grandparents, or hear stories about them?

#eli talks #i was a military brat (both parents in the navy) and disabled #so i spent most of my time at home with my great-grandmother and her son my grandpa #nana and papa :) #or i guess i just call him pop now #spending time with my nana and pop was SO vital to me as a kid #in my childhood memories and in my upbringing and in my values and habits #i even caught my nana's rural Canadian accent. despite living in southern California #so bizarre is it to me that this isnt everyone else's experiences #what do you MEAN you didn't live with your papa? with your nana? #what do you MEAN you didn't watch Who Wants To Be A Millionaire with a 89yo woman while she fed u lemon pudding and talked about the 40s #what do you MEAN you weren't fed fucked up Great Depression era food that makes you feel nostalgic for childhood now? #what do you MEAN you didn't grow up hearing how this whole town was just orchards and woodland up until just a few decades ago #and that YOUR great-grandpa didn't build half the old houses in town #and that YOUR grandpa didn't install half the telephones in the county? #i think being so disconnected from your grandparents n great-grandparents like that also like... disconnects you from history #how recently planes became commonplace or electricity found their way in all homes across america #you could have a relative alive RIGHT NOW that used a telegraph. that had to walk several miles home from school. #have you spoken to them? can you still speak to them?

Egypt first declared independence in 1922, but did not gain independence until the 1950s. This is because during the legal processes of 1922 that reestablished the Sultanate of Egypt, Britain gave itself reserved powers without the consent of the Egyptian government- control over foreign relations, communications, the military, and continued control in Sudan. The 1950s revolution served both the function of getting rid of British military occupation and the Egyptian constitutional monarchy- which didn't have the power to defy the British Empire, as evidenced by the 1942 incident where they forced King Farouk to appoint a British approved PM by surrounding his palace with military forces. Egyptians celebrate July 23 as independence day, the date associated with the 1952 coup against Farouk, not a date associated with the 1922 revolution.

You know the Suez Canal, which you were all memeing about not that long ago? Egyptian forces fought the UK, France, and Israel to gain control of it for Egypt as a country in the 50s. 2000+ to 4000+ Egyptians died in the fight for the canal, compared to only a little over 200 combined for the other three. Before that point it was controlled by British and French shareholders, hence the fight over it still being considered a victory by Egyptians.

#Cipher talk #My feelings about the revolution are complicated #It was led by the military and directly led to the past 70 years of military focused dictatorships #And in the aftermath a lot of Nasser's policies decimated minority Egyptian communities on the basis of them being foreign #And the building of the high Aswan dam which displaced basically all of Nubia in Egypt #But also. Fuck the British. #Anyway sorry I've just seen a few things lately list Egypt as gaining independence in 1922 and the truth is its more complicated than that #This is relevant to archeology as well. My constant gripe with Egyptologists is they don't understand modern Egyptian history.

I still think even now in 2023 it’s so incredibly bold and mature and deep of Hiromu Arakawa to actually state in Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood that a complete and total government takedown/reformation is the only way to reshape a country that was built for the sole purpose of being a militarized state, and even more incredible and bold to have the protagonists reinforce this by acknowledging their statuses as war criminals, acknowledging in their new world they will be put on trial for genocide and still pursuing it anyway because its the right and necessary thing to do 

#I CANNOT emphasize the Necessary #like the characters have emotional ties to their actions but they are like No our military is a brutal war machine and We HAVE to destroy it #its a part of their philosophy Hiromu is so fucking smart at writing characters UUGHFFHJGGH #literally im at the halfway point and everything is beginning to unfold i could kiss her hands her writing is stellar #ALSO building a shrine to BONES studio for their work on the anime like fuck dude #POV you're watching FMA:B and you're an american who was around for 9/11

I wanna draw a cute scenario I thought up for that one "military experiment" P03 AU that I am yet to properly name but today is a Bad Art Daytm and nothing I draw comes out right insert pensive emoji here

#thylacines can talk #im not really calling thay au military experiement because it was the original concept for it but it changed since then #yet i am yet to come up with an accurate name for it #anyway the idea is that P03 gets fucked UP but is being healed by Magnificus via some spells. and the other two occassionsly come by to #check up on P03. and eventually as they're just sitting by Mags and P03. P03 just kinda. falls asleep because the fucker's exhausted and #in pain. and the other free end up sleeping next to them. and later P03 wakes up in the cuddle pile and just feels very comfy and #the safest and most loved he's ever felt in his life. i fucking love this concept because the au deals with p03 moving on from his trauma #and abusive parents and finding a family thay actually loves and cares for him and who want him around for himself jndtead of some #ultrriot motive. and this also comes after p03 just basicslly lied to them for a long time before deciding to come clean and prove to them #that hes not a monster and nearly fucking DIES in the process (thanks Photographer for fucking nuking the place. very helpful). so like. #the other scrybes kinds blame themselves for P03 almost kicking the bucket. #man how does it feel to have these small bits of the au dropped @ u with zero fucking context? #i think its funny. i like to drop just batshit concepts like photographer just blowing up a building and absolutely not elaborating on that #the tags are longer than the actual post now help
