hey bro can we like adopt paralleling themes and symbolize opposites but in a two sides of the same coin kind of way? it doesn’t have to be weird. wait what do you mean thats gay

It is my wish for you and all of us that the bullshit stops soon. You know. Whatever unnecessary horrors that happens to be for you

#for example #I woke up with a sore throat at the worst possible time

wake up sheeple !! the notion that katara is the overbearing, responsible member of the group was a lie peddled by Big Toph to distract from the fact that the actual overbearing, responsible member of the group (sokka) also happens to be her favorite.

#toph and katara are just two stubborn rebellious girls who are constantly at loggerheads #we shouldn’t listen to their baseless insults and accusations #for example #toph is very wise and poised and mature and sensible #and katara is very mischevious and cool and funny and fun-loving #they’re just both . middle schoolers who must assert their dominance #katara #toph #sokka #katara&toph #sokka&toph #also anyone who thinks katara is the mom friend needs to rewatch book 1 especially #(my favorite katara season tbh. she is especially cute and sparkly in it)

I know we joke about it but it is vital for something to be at least a little bit badly written and/or tragic for me to want to write fanfic for it. It's gotta have cracks for me to wedge myself into, you see, otherwise I might like reading it but my brain will not get feral about it. But you give me an unresolved/botched ending? Kernels of brilliant concepts/amazing characterization in a mangled plot? Sign me the hell up, see you in a couple of weeks with an absolutely brainrotting amount of fix-it fic

I believe that the true Clone Wars fan experience is thinking you’re going to fall in love with one clone trooper but then absolutely losing your marbles about an entirely different one.

#for example #I thought I was gonna be rude or die for Fives #or Rex #and I am #but JESSE #LOVE OF MY LIFE #FINEST MAN ALIVE #MY BABY GIRL #MY POOKIE BEAR #yeah so I instead was jumped by Jesse #and I’m not complaining #the clone wars #clone trooper jesse #arc trooper jesse #sag’s stuff

Update/follow up to this post: It looks like Neil responded to the Douglas situation on Bluesky...

I'm not sure I entirely trust this reply, as his tone here seems as curt as Douglas's was on Instagram. Also because "moving onto other projects" doesn't normally involve the extra steps of unfollowing someone and removing mentions of the show from your bio and deactiving your Twitter.

So I stand by my assertion that this feels like something personal has occurred, though I don't think we will ever know what, specifically (and it is still for Neil and Douglas to resolve between them, if they want to). Sad days indeed....

The act of of agreeing with a particular kind of person that “crystals are full of energy” and letting them go on with their post-Aquarian emotional voodoo spiel for a bit before hijacking the conversation in the direction of semi-conductor engineering and manufacture and seeing how long they can endure

I think it's important to remember that a critique of a thing is not inherently a critique of either the people who like the thing or the people who create it, either individually or in aggregate.

#elumish blogs #for example #critiquing fandom is not a critique or criticism of women #and neither is critiquing romance novels

People do realize that Fred is canonically autistic in Mystery Incorporated right. It's not just a popular headcanon, it's an actual thing

I keep seeing people asking "why" people think he's autistic and I've also seen some people downright imply that believing he's autistic is ableist or something so I just wanted to make this post to clarify that.

#scooby doo #fred jones #scooby doo mystery incorporated #as a neurodivergent person i think his representation is handled super well #for example #he's shown multiple times to have skills/intellect that are unrelated to traps #like in season 2 where he uses the names of establishments to spell out the message to his friends

tfp au pharma gets turned into a baby lol

This is just a snippet of a comic idea I want to work on. The premise will be Pharma, while on Griffin Rock, accidentally gets turned into a child due to Doc Greene’s invention. Before they could reverse the effects, Pharma goes missing. Fortunately, all that happened was that he crawled through the groundbridge back to Team Prime’s hideout. So while the Rescue Bots and Burns freak out about where Pharma is, Team Prime is busy trying to care for a child (that they didn’t know was Pharma until Ratchet told them).

Am I the only one who likes to explain away the himbofication of Luther and Diego, and some of the more questionable sibling decisions of s3 especially, with 'time travel messes with your mind'? Sure, Five and Lila are used to it, but the rest of the siblings aren't. After two jumps let's just say their brains aren't functioning like they used to.

Makes everything that grates you in s3 so much more tolerable, I promise.

#tuamre #tua #I'm not as negative about s3 as most #it has some really great character moments #but it's hard to see luther's progression as character growth tbh #for example #he's just so dumb in s3 #let's call it time travel brain and be done with it #the umbrella academy #umbrella acedmy

I love Neuvillette and find him so interesting to compare to other characters he shares characteristics to—I rlly wasn’t expecting them to go the route they did for what kind of character he was going to be but I’m so on board with it he’s so fun

First comparison I’ve been thinking about I suppose is him and Zhongli. They’re both distinguished old men (tm) who r powerful non human entities, but the way they both go about this are both enjoyably distinct. Both of them are both capable of deep gentleness, but Neuvillette’s gentleness feels a lot more “innocent” than Zhongli’s does. Zhongli is gentle from a place of experience of having to be not gentle in his time as an Archon who had fo hold his country together through apocalyptic war and calamity, but while he is gentle from a place of certainty about himself and what he’s learned/will learn about the world, I feel Neuvillette is gentle from a place of uncertainty and feeling he still has much to learn about himself and the world

We still don’t know a lot about Neuvillette’s history as of 4.1 but it’s interesting to me Neuvillette feels like a non human character who hasn’t had a lot of unique suffering tied to being physically nonhuman, and/or calamity intertwined with him learning about and building a relationship with humanity, like a lot of other non human characters we know have. A lot of his hardship in this vein feels very…grounded on a human level (see: his SQ) and different than say, a Scaramouche or any of the Archons

Neuvillette seeking out humanity and the way he connects to communities and other societies I think can have this additional sad edge to it because I wonder if you could frame that as being influenced by the fact he doesn’t really have any community of his own kind around him to feel a sense of identity with. So like, compare how Neuvillette engages with humanity, compared to how characters like Yae Miko or Xiao—I feel there’s a level of disconnect and difference in how they want to/feel they should engage with humans because they have a sense of identity as youkai/adepti that Neuvillette might have never really had a chance to develop, because of the circumstances with his own kind

The way he forms bonds with humanity and the melusines just feel very distinct to me, and feels like he’s been able to explore it with a less jaded view than a lot of other characters have been able to do. That’s sort of what I mean when I describe him as having this certain feeling of “innocence” to him

He’s just very earnest in a way that’s honestly really endearing. I like how he sincerely responds to Paimon’s silly suggestion to refer to himself as a “dragon out of water” rather than a “fish out of water” because he’s just genuinely spending a lot of his time trying to learn and understand how to communicate and engage with others very often. It’s funny how it’s not even like Neuvillette isn’t jaded or doesn’t hold strongly worded opinions or dislikes of things. His earnestness about this sometimes manifests as him being kind of sassy and it’s honestly hilarious. He’s very a impartial judge who cares a lot about fairness but also he must scoff at a lack of respect towards the Art of drinking water and Zhongli + Venti LARPing normal mortal humans , you see. Love this guy

#neuvillette #zhongli #genshin #fandomferns #fern.txt #neuvillette’s occasional ‘sass’ is something I also find funny when compared to Zhonglis humor #because zhongli gets his amusement out of being kind of playfully mischievous almost #for example #I am jestering to the entirety of lantern rite 2023 #no wonder xiao is so vaguely tormented the entire time #(of course this is the first thing I think of)
