#anyway. Just Thinkin.

[aeide-thea]

also totally unrelated but like. thinking abt how many american transmascs have identified with figures like disney's mulan and joan of arc and how it's like. i super get it but also that identification rests on such a violent wrenching of those figures out of their original contexts…

#like once you find out joan is like. a mascot of modern-day french right-wing nationalism it just. doesn't taste the same. #similarly like. yeah we all have feelings abt when will my reflection show &c #if i were truly to be myself / i would break my family's heart #however like. kinda textbook appropriative‚ no? #this is really a reaction to the 2020 remake but it's an interesting readable overview of ways the story has been positioned: #https://www.thenation.com/article/culture/disney-mulan-review/ #anyway. Just Thinkin. #(also possibly something 2 be said here abt tumblr takes on caeneus.)

being a person is so weird bc i’ll be like “i wish my brain was kinder to me esp when i’m already having a hard time,” and then i remember that i’m my brain and i have to be kinder to me and that nobody else will do it for me

#🍜 #just thinkin. anyway that means i need to get breakfast #ok to rb

Fearne has seen a version of herself that has gone down a very bad path in EXU. […] She doesn’t know where in the timeline that Fearne was, and if every sort of step that I’m taking, “Is this gonna lead me down to that path - to the bad Fearne?"

#critical role #ygifs #fearne #cr3 #thinkin my dark girl fearne thoughts and all the pacts she just ''selfcares'' herself into lately :) #skips around the room giggling thinking about the high warqueen elmenore and her fearne plans #I say thats my abandoned emotionally fuckedup ruidusborn downbad chaos girly and I want her evil but I want her safe😵‍💫 #I do love fearne's interaction with evil fearne literally was just fearne being like lol but how cool are u hmmmm #and yet fearne is actively concerned about That fearne while actively taking steps more likely to lead her there hmmm #also like I don't Need there to be payoff for ollie's plague nightmare of fearne but like dot dot dot #anyway fearne moments are the hottest moments next #my galpaloway

something I do appreciate about red vs blue is its particular brand of “came back wrong”. you were brought back, but you’re just a memory of the person you’re supposed to be. you’re just the expectations of them. you’re just the pieces everyone else saw and remembered. you’re tough like the original, but you’ll always fail no matter how tough you are, because the original failed, too. you’ve got a personality like the original, but it’s not quite right because you didn’t actually live the life they did. there’s this person you love- who you would kill or suffer or die for- but you don’t know why, you just know you’re supposed to be together because that’s what you were made for.

#thinkin abt tex and epsilon at 4am on a thursday #anyway thinkin about the fact that tex and church were never *actually* together outside of blood gulch #she tried to save alpha. she failed. he didn't know who she was and she was forced to leave him. #but realistically? he'd never met her before. because she wasn't allison and he wasn't leonard #they were both just copies that knew who they were supposed to be #and epsilon never met tex. he only had the copy based on alpha's muddled memories. #and then when he brought her back... she was just even more wrong because she was a memory of a memory #and even with all of alpha's memories #epsilon wasn't alpha. he was someone different because he'd been through different things #alpha didn't remember what was done to him. epsilon did. alpha didn't know what he'd lost. epsilon did. #alpha lived his life. had relationships with the reds and blues. epsilon just remembered it. #and with that in mind you have to wonder... #what did tex actually remember? who did she think she was? what did she think the director and alpha were to her? #because epsilon had alpha's memories but beta didn't even have that. #anyway yeah roommate agreed to experience rvb with me and we watched seasons 1-10 together and hooboy #I'm back on my bullshit #red vs blue #rvb #Agent Texas #tex rvb #Leonard Church #church rvb #epsilon rvb #alpha rvb #beta rvb

just had (evil) thoughts

so Ed gets rid of the silk first, right? He lets it go to the wind. then he gets rid of Lucius, then all of Stede's nice things, then his crew (save for Jim and Frenchie).

he puts on the Big Bad Scary Kraken persona and says this:

"Farewell Bonnet's playthings. Onto the next."

does that. does that mean he views his red piece of silk as one of 'Bonnet's Playthings' as well?

does that mean that Ed thought his heart was being toyed with? but does that also mean that he nevertheless believed it still belonged to Stede?

like yes, you may have been reckless with it, but it was yours anyway.

and maybe that's part of why he abandons it. maybe he didn't think it belonged to him anymore. maybe it became Stede's the moment he held it with both hands and treated it with care despite how 'tatty and old' it was.

#im sorry for this post #truly sincerely but i was just thinking about the order he gets rid of stuff for my wip #also i find it interesting that he calls all of stede's crew and his stuff 'playthings' because like #that implies that stede wasn't a real pirate. just a child playing with toys #but we're shown throughout the season that ed very much believes that stede is a pirate #he doesn't doubt that of him for even a second #even when stede tells him he traded gunpowder for marmalade ed is like yep that's a sound decision to me #anyway sorry for the tangent sorry for this post i just had to word vomit ok goodbye #ofmd #our flag means death #ofmd meta #gentlebeard #blackbonnet #edward teach #stede bonnet #oh we thinkin?

back on my hobbyhorse ik but

i kind of feel like at some level the phrase ‘a woman’s right to choose’ is actually rhetorically cordoning off this particular aspect of bodily autonomy from the overarching, universal human right to bodily autonomy, not to mention turning ‘woman’ into a euphemism for ‘pregnant person,’ which… i thought was pretty precisely what we were trying to resist?

#anyway like. i know i'm fussy abt this but just like. this language IS in fact doing things! it functions in particular ways! #abortion #language #reminds me a little of the way 'ladies' room' actually makes no sense if you think about it #like. room for what? it's a signpost that doesn't actually point anywhere unless you supply the meaning yr socialization tells you it has #it's just this weird euphemism that's serving to reinforce the idea of bathrooms and what one does there as being fundamentally about gender #anyway. just thinkin. #like it's not necessarily the case that framing a thing in terms of its benefit for a particular special interest group is always bad #but. see also all previous arguments abt how cissexism in this case is not just an issue in itself but an issue of a fundamental misframing #if you're doubling down on pregnancy = women you're also i think pretty unavoidably doubling down on women = pregnancy to some extent #just in the sense that like. insisting on the association is in fact insisting on the association #anyway. i am actually trying not to rehash precisely the same ground over and over‚ not that you'd know it #but i just think like. cissexism is not only bad for trans people‚ it's also actually bad for cis women #bc it reduces them to a stereotypical idea about their biology #which has been said many times before but. just thinking abt little micro ways that manifests itself on a language level. #ok that really is it. for now anyway.

DISTRACTIONS sometimes its the drive to help and save our friends that pushes us to learn and to succeed. unfortunately its normally ''unethical'' to replicate that in a classroom setting. I ONLY JUST FINISHED THE LAST PAGE HERE, THE FIRST TWO WERE LITERALLY FROM LAST YEAR, N A FEW MONTHS APART. LOOOOK AT MY EVOLUTION. im very proud of this and bled REALLY HARD FOR THE LAST PAGE. PLEASE ABSORB THIS.

#gillion tidestrider #jrwi fanart #jrwi show #jrwi riptide #the last page honestly just took super long bc i dropped it for a long while. only recently wiped the dust off o it. #IM RLY PROUD OF ALOT O THINGS ABT THAT LAST PAGE #LIKE THE PERSPECTIVE N THE WIDE SHOTS OR WHATEVER #IT WASNT EASY BUT I MADE IT LOOK GOOD!! IM SO HAPPY WITH IT #I ALSO just really love drawing gillion as soooo small #just a little guy with the weight of the world bolted to his tiny tiny shoulders #n yknow what while im here ill talk abt the first two comics aswell. i like taking inspo from JTHM for this kinda stuff #more specifically SQUEE n the way his dad was just sooo honest and cruel to him. 'yeah its your fault my life sucks' n all that. i imagine #that gillion prolly dealt with alot o that too. i know weve already seen the elders #but i did initially imagine them to be very much like the Tallests from invader zim. they just hate this little guy. hes so small n lame #hes prolly had teachers like that im sure. i like thinkin about gills experience in school!! #i fell in love with him the moment he said that he wasnt good at being a student like girl ME TOOOO WAAAAAA #HE SUCKS In school and everyone is just sooo tired of him but they gotta put up with him bc hes the Chosen One #but GOD they wish they had someone more competent i bet. it was prolly a relief when they banished him #could u imagine being that? someone so insufferable that people sigh in relief when youre gone. poor poor gillion #ANYWAY THATS ALL MY THOUGHTS #TALK ABT UR THOUGHTS IN THE TAGS TOO DIPSHIIITT CMAAAHHNN
