#god we deserved more of this look

All the jokes about Ken and horses are good but I just wanna say it's such a good parallel to how actual young men get swept into misogyny and the patriarchy.

Like they're told to believe it means men get to be cool and manly and have this power but with that comes extremely rigid commands of what they can be as a man and a cycle of self hatred for never matching those gender roles perfectly. Patriarchy tells men that if they just do exactly what is expected of them, then they get all the "cool stuff" that comes with. That doesn't work though when there's only a small group that actually gets that power, but men will keep trying to fit into those roles in hopes that they can.

In the end there are no horses or the myth men are told, it's just endless cycles of self hatred and ingroup fighting.

#barbie #barbie movie #barbie spoilers #ig #ive got a lot more on how barbie looks at feminism and the patriarchy cause god they did it #not to say there isnt faults such as very little conversation about intersectionality #but i can also understand the impossible task of talking about EVERYTHING in one movie #not everyone will be happy and thats fine #anyway i think something barbie did really well is fight this battle of both wanting so deeply to love (romantically or not) men but also #not dismissing the fact its mens job to solve their problems themselves #that even if women need to be the front runners of breaking the patriarchy men cannot rely on them to solve their own problems completely #also just god im so glad this wasnt a girl boss slay movie #women deserve respect and love and life regardless of accomplishment #we should not have to be ceos and presidents and world problem solvers to gain equality #i can also understand if nonbinary people feel left out/disconnected from the movie #but as always gender abolition and acknowledging the gender binary (ie the one societially impossed) go hand and hand 👍 #just incase cause idfk terfs dni the barbie movie is not for you #barbie literally states constantly that her gender has nothing to do with (non existent) genitals so f off

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #a-qing #xue yang #xiao xingchen #Xue yang is cold because cold blooded creatures can't generate their own body heat #I am skipping over drawing the stories they tell due to the fact this arc is already really dragging #but I think they are very key in understanding the yi-city characters #Even if they are stories that really bring down the slumber party vibes A-Qing was hoping for. #I mentioned some of my thoughts in the tags of no. 76 but to continue on a bit more #I think xxc and xue yangs stories inversely mirror each other on the meaning of sacrifice and what it means to 'deserve' something #to xue yang he has only ever sacrificed - therefore he is in his right to 'deserve' what he wants. And he wants everything. #xxc leaves song lan thinking its the best course of action to atone but my god. No it wasn't. Poor communication crown actually goes to xxc #but it's what xxc he feels he deserves - continued sacrifice to atone. He wants to want nothing. #both are very stuck in the past in ways that are not actually accounting for their actions #It's easy to look at xue yang and go 'dang you need to get over your childhood trauma' #but that very much ignores that fact that we - real human beings - define so much by our childhood pains. #Growth is having to come to terms with it and trying to move past it...and not everyone is ready for that. #I have a lot of thoughts on that matter but I'll let it be for now. #Anyways. Amiguito appears to be one of those words whos meaning change depending on speaker and contextual factors #So as far as I can tell it slides around on the scale on romantic and platonic.

Pictures from the 2023 Brazil Post-Race that made me psychologically and physcially and emotionally unwell:

#of course there are more but ive either reblogged or posted most of them #im just....so unwell over everything today #and all of these are beautiful bcs of nando of course but at the same time many are just really genuinely great compositions #god im so glad the trophy is gold bcs the way sun reflects off it is crazy #HE DESERVES ALL THE GOLD!!!!! #and he looks so gorgeous in the sun #(theres smth vett//onso here to be said about the gold and sunshine HUH WHAT SHHHH SHHHHHHH) #the one where its glowing when hes holding it up in the air is sending me. its like smth from indiana jones or smth #if i wasnt dedicated to seb id probably make all my background on ever device from this #its funny tho bcs the majority of my backgrounds rn are from another brazil gp. interlagos is just the best i guess. #aaaaaaahhhh his podiums are always so good like i dont think anyone on this grid has the same energy as him #none of them ever seem as happy and energetic as he is :/ so when he does get on the podium i always intend to make the most out of it!!!! #kissing him squeezing him loving him #f1 #formula 1 #fernando alonso #we do a little bit of f1 #2023 brazilian gp

Something something Junmo wearing Gicheol's suit and Taeho's watch. Something about Gicheol taking Junmo to his home, his room—a place only Taeho has been to before, while he wears another one of Gicheol's clothing.

(and just Taeho in general tbh *heart eyes*)

#something something INSANITY #like for Gicheol Seungho IS Taeho in some ways–he's almost like a dead ringer to him #if he looked at him for more than a minute their faces would start to merge and Gicheol wouldn't be able to tell who it was anymore #they're that similar #so inviting Seungho into his room is sort a way for him to replicate the feeling that he used to get with Taeho and Taeho alone #good god I will never forgive this show for showing just how unhinged Gicheol was for Taeho and then just...never giving us anything else #about their history together like he's Gicheol's childhood best friend has probably been there for him even before Euijeong #and we just get nothing about him when he's the whole reason Junmo even got an opening into the gangnam union #sigh #im so sorry taeho baby you deserve better #the worst of evil

idk what's worse coming into a fandom that's already 4 seasons long: the fact that everyone is already bitter and jaded and that pessimism and negativity has seeped into the environment

or that your top/bottom headcanons have become passé

#wwdits #nandermo #(hint: it's the second one) #like fuck yalls negativity just leave me and my service top!nandor headcanons alone 😔 #loOK #is nandor a bottom? yES but Guillermo likes dick more than him ok #and honestly he deserves it let the boy get smashed under a dick big enough to crush a mouse #SEE I SOLVED IT #I have decided that Guillermo and I are the same and my god do we need big man hairy chest long haired vampire DICK it makes us look stupid #hi hello im new here just recently finished binging the show for the first time and I have THOUGHTS and OPINIONS

I need our best friend Mr. Adam Ross to come through with those flower crown pictures because I cannot function right now.

(also if they decide to give ii one as well I'll legitimately pass away)

#the pose. that stupid bastard princess pose #🥺😩 #also #is it me or are they enjoying the kissies a lil ~extra~ lately? #cus we had The Pucker 😚 like 2 days ago #and today they lingered a lil bit longer than usual #those slutty bastards are SO aware of what they're doing to is and honestly? disgusting. i want more. #(don't take this the wrong way i don't mean to be weird. they all just seem to be having extra fun lately and i love it) #this one is for the weird Gatekeeper Dude-Bros who act scandalized when people comment they're hot #(obviously be respectful and don't then uncomfortable but you know what i mean) #God forbid women (cus it's almost always targeted at us) enjoy things #ANYWAYS #they look like they're having the time of their lives and it's what they deserve #i hope the rest of the tour goes smoothly for them #sleep token

charlynch is dead again (why charlotte's knee why), but i just really love their november 2023 reunion dynamic. i love becky's solemnity as she contemplates letting charlotte back into her life, i love charlotte's bright eyed delighted smile at maybe being forgiven.

like this moment encapsulates it so perfectly. charlotte's so happy to be forgiven, to be told she can still have value in becky's eyes even after everything that's happened. and becky's... not quite ready for that yet.

#god i wish we could've gotten more of them #charlynch #jrestling #charlotte flair #becky lynch #it reminds me a lot of post reunion ambrollins tbh #all those moments where seth looks at dean with just. these disbelieving and adoring smiles (while dean is focused on something else) #like he cant believe he gets to have this again. he can't believe he gets to deserve this

I just. How are the studios not fucking embarrassed yet? How are they not just wallowing in awareness that they are the baddies? I understand wealth separates a man from his common sense and, uh, soul, but. How are you looking at a bunch of artists who are asking for basically the bare minimum, going “yeah, no, I need my yachts”, and you’re NOT aware how pathetic you look? The biggest loser energy in the world.

#wga strong #sag strong #the rich embarrassing themselves isn’t the least bit new but my god am I bored of them #we need art. we need stories. it’s the most human thing we can do. #and people who make art deserve to like. eat. and pay for their homes. and have lives. #this shit isn’t actually controversial no matter how much studios want to convince you otherwise #fuckin quit throwing a bitch baby fit over your mega millions or billions or whatever insanity and pay your fucking writers and actors #and cgi artists and crews and PAs and fuckin ALL of the people who actually contribute to civilization via the humanities #sorry not sorry I am. Tired of the bullshit. #the longer it goes on the more pitiful the studios are gonna look so just. lick your wounds now and let folks get back to making cool shit #(while also being able to. eat. and live their lives. and not lose their rights and livelihood to AI horseshit. y’know. the basics.)

#its so weird. i feel like march 5th went on for more than a day somehow. i guess that's just bc we were awake for just abt all of it #my dad wanted to start doing things immediately so he was calling and scheduling all day. we went to the funeral home we went to the store #and it was weird bc as we were moving around it was like wow we r a 4 person family now. this is it. and theres so much to do after a person #dies. or at least there is when they were loved so much and jesus christ my mom was one of the best ppl a LOT of ppl knew. she did so much #for so so many ppl. and with her childhood she had every reason to b a fuck up but no she was kind and selfless and amazing. her mother is #trying to bask in the attention of her death when its like: truely go fuck urself. her being such a good person has nothing to do with u. u #treated her appallingly. fuck off. and fucking everyone knows it. god. she is a product of her grandparents kindness. and it sounds like her #dad was amazing like her. but he tragically died in a car wreck when she was 3. she was in the car. no one in my mums family believes in a #god now. too many bad things happened to the shining gems in a collection of wild alcoholics. but its not all bad. my family's staying close #my dad is taking it hard bc this means hes alone now and my mum took care of so many things bc she was so smart and he feels so dumb. he #feels he didnt deserve her. hes working on giving more hugs now. and hes using us to anxiously talk things out the way he did with mom #which is good. i cant imagine if this happened when we werent 3 adults and he was windowed with 3 kids to raise himself. and its funny. were #saying things we never would have told her. we looked thru pictures of her and she was so so beautiful. a total smoke show. my parents were #a cute couple who produced cute kids. and my mom had trouble communicating and being affectionate tho we knew she loved us there was #distance. theres a pic of my dad pulling her close and shes being tippef towarf her while standing away and thats indicitive of their #relationship. they were 2 partners who lived together independently and that worked but its sad bc my mum couldnt b vulnerable in her #expression. ppl r being so kind tho. ill be in ohio now for like 2.5 more weeks as the funeral stuff shakes out. we have to have 2 bc she #grew up away from her and so many ppl loved her in both locations. she was a popular lady. its so weird to b here on pause. but i feel clear #in my head. i think this will change a lot of my outlook on life. its nice to focus on the person she was and not the horrible 12hrs where i #saw her half dead. i cant imagine how awful it was for my sisters and dad to see her downslide into death. she didnt expect this to b The #Fever that killed her but it did and now she'll never finish a million things. and the house is full of pill bottles and all her junk and #unopened amazon packages and a truck with the fuel left on empty. bc she was an absent minded goofball. ay. well miss her so much #unrelated

2009 Brazilian Grand Prix - Mark Webber

#i thought mark deserved some gifs as well bcs even tho he won the race all the focus was on jense haha #the worst was when he got up to stand on top of his car and celebrate and then the feed instantly cut to jense pulling into parc ferme ;; #mark wins his 2nd gp and gets like probably a minute of podium footage LMAO #anyways i like the third gif bcs he looks like in a video game where the character's expression glitched #mark please talk with your hands more cmon i know you love it #the two moments where his hands are in frame absolutely had to be included(dedicated to dru hehehe) #(as always: my god the lighting in these pressers is absolutely horrible) #(it just makes everyone look so washed out and ghoulish LMAO) #(i said this before but still it astounds me. every time before i recolor them im like '...wait do i rly find this guy attractive?') #also i meant to finish this season during summer break but ran out of time!! so ig AD will be next week? #i could do it but like i dont wanna clash w zandvoort and ik its a podium i will rly like too so i dont wanna rush it #but ughhhhhh why does f1 coming back from break have to coincide with my school coming back from break #mark webber #f1 #formula 1 #formula one #we do a little bit of f1 #2009 brazilian gp

#liv in the replies #patrice bergeron #boston bruins #brad marchand #do you ever think about how brad marchand said that when bergy retired he would retire or are you capable of normal thought i'm not at all #please say a gratitude for both my sanity& y'all that this poem (which has been saved in my camera roll with the vague idea of using it for #??? ​long) & not one of the poems i had saved for carey for a really long time & remixed & everything with another poem until i found a poem #that absolutely murdered me in cold blood but there is an alternate universe where i did& then had to explain my unhinged thoughts to you. #anyway how are we feeling about bergy retirement. pspspspsp sara & luna are y'all doing okay like. the doc title for this one was #patrice the hockey player means a lot to me but patrice the person means so much more #which is why the end line of the other poem was so *%"@^)! (you love / what you are) because patrice does. like he is a whole ass good huma #& now since no one asked i need to tell you all the details about everything also y'all please clap i made an edit with NO baby pictures #although i did find one & save it & minimal genres of photo i always use in edits because they're my taste & aesthetic but anyway. #when i saved the first photo and marked it as one i wanted i accidentally wrote “how will he know they love him” which is not the line but #makes me feel feral about patrice & the rest of them all had hurtful names too but also. the third picture is literally a CELLY like brad #just scored a goal & he is clinging to bergy for dear life with that shit i saved that as “oh the agony on his face for unendurable” #& yes it is one of my cliches to have a draft day picture but in my defense the lifelong bond that patrice has/d with boston deserved to be #there even if i put in the love story & YES that picture is from the 2011 playoff right below it shared joy & pain & i couldn't tell you #when the brad marchy photo for together forever is except for the fact that i saw it & just the gut punch of oh my god the way he looks at #things men will praise you for is the stanley cup. duh. but i love the contrast of “some deed” being the stanley cup but then #bergy's choice to do noble deeds (ends up still earning praise &that's my note to his efforts outside of hockey we love a supportive captai #should also mention the first two i came up with & had the photos i knew i wanted for were the first and last one alskaldk but i KNEW i #wanted chara somewhere in the paragraph about leaving & then while i was looking found the one of bergy playing tuukka on accident & yes #i do have to make goalie jokes every time. no reprieve . no dice/no deal/no goal goalies have no rest/reprieve etc etc the one that killed #me though was looking for a patrice award pic & i wanted basically the one that i got for “how will you know any will praise you” & instead #also got the picture of patrice winning the some community hero award for charity work that he does & i love him mama & of COURSE that puck #is from bergy's 1000 game who do you think I am (if you guessed sleepy and emotional about patrice you'd be right) and ALSO please be ready #for all the patrice posts/bruins posts that have been sitting in my drafts to be released on this occasion of patrice retirement #I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT TUUKKA ALSO RETIRED THAT’S WHY HE WAS ON WISE OR SIMPLE NO REPRIEVE AND THAT LATE OR SOON WAS ALWAYS GOING TO BE #CHARA BECAUSE CHARA LEFT FIRST TO GO TO THE CAPS AND THEN LEFT IN RETIRMENT HE LEFT SOON BUT NOT FOR REAL THEN LATER LEFT FOR REAL (RETIRED)

Just past 3.1K words in my Angel Dust fic and counting

hooray! <3

#angel dust #fic writer #ao3 writer #mrblackhaironthestreet #gods you guys are gonna either hate or love this #its a songfic (or songfic adjacent) that explores just. lots of stuff #drawing from personal experience as well as character reference and firsthand reports of similar things that go on in the fic #also occasionally referencing my drug knowledge cuz this fic is def pretty personal for me and i think its good to stay informed if u or #anyone you know uses. chances are theres at least 1 person you know who gets high. obv the fic isn't really psa material about harm #reduction but i squeeze some fun facts in there that you'd only really know if you went looking #and usually you only go looking for those facts if you need them and have used are using or plan to use #i once had to look up how to reverse an acetaminophen overdose. yeah. not my proudest moment #but the good part is that i sought out how to help myself instead of panicking and i think that being more informed can help others not #panic when shit goes wrong cuz eventually it will #knowledge is power. if ur in the scene u should know the ins and outs of it #same w any other scene like idk rock climbing where u know the shorthand 4 things and tricks and how to save urself if something fails #a LOT of hobbies involve risk even serious risk not just drug use #drug use is hella stigmatized tho so we only ever talk about how risky and self-abusing it is #there is no one too far gone to deserve help or at least some friendly advice #idk just. pls stay safe ily guys #and uh i hope u like my fic when i post it

It’s June 10th! So here is Port reading the Lusiads, which is basically a fanciful retelling of the first sea voyage to India with roman mythology in the mix, with Venus being the protector of the Portuguese and Bacchus trying to foil them.

And yes, I realise I clearly like water and history coming out of books lol

#my art #aph portugal #hws portugal #broooo my headache is killing meeee #trevo said Port is looking at the naked lady and YEAH OK IT WASN'T INTENTIONAL but Venus was there for him ok she deserves the attention #i wanted to add more but you know....you know #so we have the two gods and viri4thus and ter3sa and h3nry and afons0 h3nriques #and then the story of eg4s mon1z o aio and ofc p3dro and in3s #4damastor is obligatory and m4griço and his buddies #and the island of loves which is just so funny. trust c4mões to reward his sailors by getting them laid in an island full of nymphs #'god would approve of this' and it did the inquisition approved it good for him #and a lil c4mões up there cos according to legend he saved the manuscript of the poem after a shipwreck #by holding it up while swimming with one arm #anyway i love c4mões and i love that he bitches about getting no respect in this...the national epic. love it #as you can see i prefer to focus on the literary side of today hehehee
