#in our year of 2023

[nedlittle]

it drives me bonkers the way people don't know how to read classic books in context anymore. i just read a review of the picture of dorian gray that said "it pains me that the homosexual subtext is just that, a subtext, rather than a fully explored part of the narrative." and now i fully want to put my head through a table. first of all, we are so lucky in the 21st century to have an entire category of books that are able to loudly and lovingly declare their queerness that we've become blind to the idea that queerness can exist in a different language than our contemporary mode of communication. second it IS a fully explored part of the narrative! dorian gray IS a textually queer story, even removed from the context of its writing. it's the story of toxic queer relationships and attraction and dangerous scandals and the intertwining of late 19th century "uranianism" and misogyny. second of all, i'm sorry that oscar wilde didn't include 15k words of graphic gay sex with ao3-style tags in his 1890 novel that was literally used to convict him of indecent behaviour. get well soon, i guess...

#the picture of dorian gray #lit #this is a pointless text post #guess what i read for the first time in the year of our lord 2023 #and yes this is a real review on storygraph that i took a screenshot of. you people are so stupid god bless #girl he literally censored it himself did your edition have 0 introduction or background at all #greatest (s)hits #book discourse

some (extremely) quick doodles to celebrate the glorious return of glorious masquerade! I haven't had a chance to do much personal drawing lately, but I didn't want to let it go by without doing something!

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #glorious masquerade #every time they do a rerun event they should make everyone's hats bigger #i feel that this should be true of every game #i think eng might be getting it this year? if so someone PLEASE tell me if they keep the 'be cool' line #the only localization that matters to me #meanwhile aside from foxman and catboy our halloween event this year is shrouded in mystery #i know they want to do a big fancy announcement and i am looking forward to it! #but it is pretty hilarious to look at the schedule and see basically just 'halloween event 2023 - wait for the abema' #look twst i just want to know if i need to save my keys or if i can waste them all in another bid at masquerade malleus #how pretty are the cards going to be. i need to know.

it's david tennant's world and we're just living in it

#david tennant? reprising BOTH of his two most iconic roles in the year of our (time)lord 2023? it's more likely than you think! #[insert 'UNFOLLOW ME NOW THIS IS GONNA BE THE ONLY THING I POST ABOUT FOR THE NEXT WEEK I'VE WANTED THIS FOR YEARS FUCK WHAT THE FUCK' here] #david tennant #the doctor #10th doctor #tenth doctor #14th doctor #fourteenth doctor #doctor who #crowley #good omens

Love that the TARDIS remodelled with a bunch of entirely unecessary walkways seemingly for the sole purpose of letting David Tennant run around them like cat enrichment shelves

#hello I've finally been drawn back into Dr Who in the year of our lord 2023 and am about to be momentarily insufferable #doctor who

The thing is Clara Oswald was always insane. But she is an insane woman who also happens to be a control freak. So she controls herself very very tightly.

When she first met the doctor, she ask him to come back and ask her tomorrow. This is not because she doesn't want to travel with him let's be real, we are talking a bout a woman whose most important possession is a travel book. She WANTS this. She wants this so bad she is afraid she has to test herself by first refusing. Test that she is still in control. So she asks the doctor to come back tomorrow.

This denying of herself to prove that she is still in control is imo what her story with Danny is. She wants the doctor. She wants the adventure, the travelling, all of time and space and the excitement of it all. She is also in love with the doctor, so much it scares her. So she put boundaries: the doctor is a hobby, she only does it on specific days. She is not in Love with him : here is the proof, she will date someone else. She chose Danny and that's why she stick to her plan even when their first date sucks ass, even when their relationship is rocky. If it feels forced it's because it is, she is forcing herself to be normal. "life would be so much easier if we fell in love with the right person, but then there'd be no fairy tales" Danny IS the right person, he is even cosmically mandated because she saw their descendant, but he is not the one Clara loves, because they are in a fairy tale.

When Danny dies it's her control slipping, she is now fully embracing her addiction to an unhealthy degree that yeah, might be fueled by her grief, but I think was always there, under the surface, tightly controlled by the control freak.

GRIMS COMING!!! You gonna pull for him??👀👀

I'm gonna try, but...

I have mere hours to decide if I want to make one last attempt at Malleus or save a few to try for Grim...and this is all before the new event reveal on the 16th. truly the most difficult choice of our modern times. the gacha is getting its revenge for all of my Lilias.

#art #of a sort #twisted wonderland #glorious masquerade #can't believe that malleus still won't come home two years in a row #okay. okay. so we'll get a free 10 pull for grim and then if i use ALL my keys and gems that'll get me up to...ugh. numbers. 91? #literally 9 short of a guaranteed summon. oh my god. #curse you trey why is your birthday just too late to get me another 10 set when i need it #i was really trying to ration but i still spent too many of my hoarded keys failing to get masqeralleus #my hubris... #and this is assuming that i won't even want any of the 2023 halloween ssrs which is. unlikely. #may we all get ridiculously lucky and get the fancy ssr on our first pull using the free event keys #it can happen if we all BELIEVE #(sobs)
