#there is nothing ordinary about you

Wei Wuxian eats a watermelon. Yep!

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wei wuxian #nothing out of the ordinary here. Just good fandom fun #Watermelon discourse has been going on and I want to let people know where I stand. #This came about because I wanted to experiment with translating the (traditional) PD-MDZS style to a digital format #and while sitting there thinking of what to draw...my inspiration came to me. #This is the equivalent of sneaking vegetables into the spaghetti sauce but its important to get your gotdamn veggies #I'm not very good at organizing my thoughts (evidence: the tags of every post on this blog). #but please do not look away from this moment in history. One person cannot solve it and no one expects you to. #Even if it is just spending time doing some research on the situation and history. Or boosting posts that are more articulate #Any action helps! ANY action! Everyone has a different level of capacity for this and that's okay. Anything is fine. Dont let it be nothing #Anyhow. did I like doing this digitally? Yes but its mixed. It was faster but also spark the same joy I usually get while drawing #I will have to get over it very quickly though. You will all see why in a few days

obsessed with the slutty slutty clothes the man at the center is wearing.

why that bare back with jewels? so that other men can caress it? and those cuffs with no sleeves? so that they can pull you in?

#satyricon #nothing about petronius arbiter elegantiae can be ordinary and I'm all here for it drinking up every detail #this picture is especially funny if you consider that it represents the king of Numidia welcoming Scipio Africanus #the guy looks like: uh there's something in my salad. And the kind is like: nevermind the salad boy look at how pretty I am #king*

I get most people only care about the singularity for memes and don't appreciate his character at all... and he is just a fictional character.... but wow I hate it so much when people call hux, the "transgender allegory" killer, by the wrong pronouns.

He is NOT an "it." his lore literally mentions him changing his pronouns from the ones he was given by humans to ones HE personally identifies with.

the transgender themes are not subtle at all, in any of his lore. there is even a scene in the archives in which he injects himself with genetic material in order to create his "perfect form."

how much clearer can they get without slapping a fucking pride flag on his face?

#dbd #hux a7 13 #thoughts about media #I love hux with my entire heart. and if you do not? well that's not my failure to fix. #but show my man some fucking respect! #he's one of the cooler original killers!!! I like that they took the typical “evil AI bent on destroying humanity” sci fi character- #-and did something different with the idea! #also he has the most graphic mori in the entire game. one that actually makes survivors afraid to be caught. #there really is nothing quite so satisfying as finally catching the little gnat of a survivor who's been annoying you- #-and popping their fucking face right open. #he's got the juice that turns the ordinary- extraordinary! fruit gushers baby ;) #all dbd fans know is how to dick ride felix and vittorio though so I do NOT know why I ever expect better.

#From last year Juneish I think If you ask me not good but I cant say shit about my past self CAUSE #I HAVENT WRITTEN ANYTHINGGGG IN MONTHS AND MONTHS AND MONTHS #Certainly like nothing of note in 2024 #in general something in my brain has shifted since the last time I wrote #every word feels perfectly ordinary and combinations only feel clever and not like a living thing so I can’t write anything I like #I feel journalistic #I feel like I’m way more comfortable in my personal prose/article style from spamming letterboxd reviews #and blogging LOLLLLL #plus songwriting which requires a lot of compromise for meter and rhyme and rhythm for me to like it #but the poetry muscle isn’t there anymore #where before there were pictures the veil has torn and I see them for what they are #which is #words and words only

Would you believe that tv cameras caught the other moment when Jesse was on stage during YLE New Year and also one second backstage (45:44 and 00:28 in the Yle Areena recording)

#come siblings get your pixels #jesse voss #gif #jeskiedes #käärijä #i like him a normal amount #listen i was only looking for the bit when he appeared after bess and dropped something on stage. but i saw that the video starts backstage #so i waited a few seconds wondering if he can possibly be there at that point #i swear i am so normal about him #nothing out of ordinary here #yes you can laugh #also #if someone can extract a better gif please do #m'wife #new year gig #i am in the second gif

i thought lesbians would think I'm an imposter or something because i have a boyfriend and i dont exactly look like a girl most of the time, turns out they love me and support me and what i do and appreciate my art.

#i fell in love with a girl and then he transed and now i love my man #idk.......... #i just appreciate being welcomed #and included #even if i am a little out of the ordinary #idk i told my bf i think i might just be a lesbian and he was like #cool #and then it kinda just clicked in a way #i was like #kinda giddy #cause you know technically i guess i would count as bisexual because i do think men are attractive too #but it just really doesnt feel right #like if i talk about myself and i say i am a lesbian with a boyfriend i just go like WOAAHWH #nothing wrong with bisexual and i think it is very much under represented and i am a little guilty of that myself #but you know #i just feel so very much right #when i can call myself a lesbian #and i realized that and maybe that's why i kept drawing girls in love all the time #maybe it's just the yearning to say something i am but i was a little intimidated #i didnt want to dissappoint my boyfriend or anger anyone because i dont perfectly fit a label #i am a lot more comfortable now

The coolest gender thing in the 2009 Japanese video game persona 3 100% how hard they coded shinjiro as the dead mom

#.txt #i got soooo mad in the car driving home thinking about how his drug addiction is essentially the classic anime heart condition. #in that the only side effect of the suppressants is that they will kill him. like? #i realized for the longest time i had assumed the chest pain and sweating came from the drugs but thats. castor. obviously. #it doesnt affect his mood or his awareness its like a mood stabilizer pain relief pill? #its so odd that hes framed as like. being addicted to illegal street drugs. BY THE NARRATIVE. #when its more like hes on the most insane experimental medication that they wont even test on like. rats. #also im not fact checking any of this before posting. so i might be lying about things. #idk if it was all of strega that had trouble controlling their personas but like. chidori was because of the Experimentation. #and shinjis just like. mentally ill coded. in a bad way 😭 #The inability to regulate a mood/stimuli to the point where he can be unsafe to himself or others. #broad ass symptom of disorders that are not treated well. its also interesting that its not brought on by a specific event. #like the childhood fire is there. but you have akihiko right there to directly compare it to. and hes arguably more effected by it all. #and he seems to be coping well 10+ years on like some coping mechanisms are kind of weird (protein) but nothing super out of the ordinary. #so the problem is really the october 4th incident which was just a pure honest to god accident. #the fact that it gets covered up as a car accident does feel like the best like. emotional equivalent. #because it being shinji being unable to control his persona his true representation of himself and it resulting in death is sooooo bleak #and it weighs on him for 2+ years of being suicidal and unhoused until finally he goes through with his suicide by martyrdom. #i lost the plot a little bit on the gender situation with the vague allusions to fraility when story convenient #acting as dorm den mother and cooking and sewing long hair jacket sillhouette reading like a dress #was referring to that before mental illness took over. woman under the influencing this anime boy. #long way of saying i think he should have a over the shoulder ponytail when hes older. and he should have a mood disorder.

tempted to make one of those old style theory posts where every character secretly represents a mental illness owoooouughg spookyyyyy

but for the akudama

#akudama drive #you know #like the ones people made for mlp or Winnie the Pooh especially #like Piglet is anxiety Eeyore is depression etc #cutthroat is autism 😈 #and courier is... also autism. because they're meant to be like mirrored characters #or foils to each other. as has been brilliantly pointed out to me 🥰 #hoodlum has munchausen syndrome #hacker is adhd #doctor has Rude Racist Asshole Disorder #I mean uh... #is a god complex a disorder? #brawler is perfectly normal #not an ounce of mental illness in that guy #ordinary person is. ordinary. she is the ultimate neurotypical #actually wait brawler has intermittent explosive disorder #I say that knowing nothing about it- #Sniper has every mental illness known to man

dabi finding out that hawks has repressed bird traits and searching everything he can find about hawks (the. bird. not the person) and trying to subtly coax hawks's instincts out

or not-so-subtly. hawks would come home to dabi having built him a whole nest bc he was certainly never going to let himself do it

#dabihawks #dabi todoroki #bnha hawks #keigo takami #bnha #free falling #not explicitly fid related but definitely smthn im doing in it #dabi would be very blatant and smug about it but also act like its nothing out of the ordinary #then hawks starts doing bird things on his own and.....oh. OH. hes CUTE #dabi what have you done

#truly nothing but lesbian yearning in this #it really isn't anything #other than me dipping my toes into... #poetry #??? #i hesitate to call it that #the rhythm and meter is shit #but there is an attempt at structure #and i'll pat myself on the back for that #fizz writes #something something the beauty of the ordinary #fizz is gay #this is kind of embarrassing to post if i think about it for too long #anywaaaaay #celebrating killing the part of me that cringes #into the void you go #silly little writing

can't post about orv anymore

have too much to say and nothing to say at the same time which results in me shutting down

awful absolutely awful, 0 stars

#orv side stories #FUCK THERE ARE REALLY 0 STARS #telling myself to fuck off #you ever want to discuss a part of a book but the only thought you have about it is a 'mood' and an incomprehensive block of letters #totally get your not-trauma lee hakhyun. totally get it #being distraught about not having the colorful experiences like other people and lying about them just to not be laughed at or dismissed or #thought to be a boring person. #lying in itself is telling a story too #so why should one be authentic anyway #you don't feel the writer in their stories but would you even want to. people are nothing like the stories they tell #are you not entertained #you are empty there is nothing in you and at the same time you can be anything - you are an abyss and it stares back #in a world where nothing has happened there is neither joy nor sorrow. #confession time i am a compulsive liar just because my life is so uneventful #and now every time i tell anything at all i tend to '''decorate''' it automaticaly or reimagine it just not to seem boring #i don't have a story to tell but i can invent one #build it from scraps of ordinary things #that's a lie too.

okay i'm struggling again

#she bork #tbd #idk i'll be fine life is just very mean and unfair and worst of all ordinary and dull. i go to work i come home i do nothing worthwhile. #weekends are never long enough and i never get to cram enough into them to enjoy myself. if life was mean but also generous and glamorous i #could maybe put up w it bc for every low there would be a high but it's not. it's just mean and you hit that low and then instead of it #being followed by a high you just end up on a plateau and eventually you hit another low. god i just don't think i was supposed to live in #this ordinary boring tedious life like i'm not made for it. not in a pretentious arrogant way but in a way that's like i'm going fucking #crazy like i have cabin fever but w my life rather than my environment (which tbh maybe they come down to one and the same). idk sometimes i #want to just blow up my life and go somewhere else and do something else and have fun and not feel so weighted down by responsibilities and #bills and worry about money specifically. like i was miserable in high school but now i think i look back on it fondly bc 1. no true #responsibilities or high stakes and/but 2. the stakes always FELT high like i was CONSTANTLY up and down and euphoric and depressed. not #healthy at all but it always felt like something was HAPPENING and now it just doesn't. i have always though that bored was the worst thing #to be and now here i am all the time it feels like. bored. #and again at the root of everything is that life is mean. mean mean mean. sometimes shit just HAPPENS that's bad and fucks you over and #there's nothing you can do about it. and again if there was something guaranteed to make up for it that would be fine but there's not. you #just have to recover and let it go and move on. and i'm not good at that

One (1) more thing

#;ooc #ooc #iconed the creature that p.icrew is so cute😭😭😭 #his lil horns will grow into legs and he'll walk upside down #ok but;; i have a thought; what if his eyes were completely still like those of statues at churches #but it still feels like they are observing u no matter where you stand- #u have to rattle him like a maracca and tell him CEASE! #and he'll chuckle and say he wasn't doing anything (he was) #also on other eerie things he does is; #when u sleep next to him; even while asleep and with his eyes fully closed; u have this feeling that he's not -truly- asleep- #like u know that awareness u have when u know someone is still awake? t h at #its like;; yes he has his eyes closed; he is breathing fine; nothing seems out of the ordinary;;; but- #why does it feel like he's not truly asleep? like if u said a word; his eyes would open abruptly- #its the e vil energy dw about it <3/j

Jacehawk is something that can be so personal. You have the world's most boring self-righteous rigid wanna-be supersoldier paired up with the most evil fucked up pathetic crybaby irredeemable anti-hero

And you find out through the eyes of one another the former is the strongest, most respectable formidable hero who is literally made of light and love and the latter is the sweetest most understanding (poor little meow meow) of a powerful wizard who was brought up in unfortunate circumstances

#and you think wow these two are literally made for each other #BAD FAITH POST #^^ 😬 #and then they kiss #jacehawk is actually about overcoming your circumstances like no matter where you thought you came from the past is wiped clean and all that #is left is to heal what is most painful for you and become the version of you that was always inside #okay so you think you're the most ordinary person ever helpless of changing anything around you. so you fight and you train for years #to become a weapon for your cause which betrays you. well it turns out your real superpower was love and bringing people together #(and becoming a GLOWING BEAST‐) and through this you can save everything. and everyone dear to you. and you'll never give up and you'll #never be truly defeated and your imprint will last and last and last and be defended by everyone you loved #now on the other hand #you think every move you make has to be perfect and love is never available to you because you always fall short. you're not only not- #powerless but in fact the decisions you make so often end up in tragedy and despair that you become a living cautionary tale #and maybe all the mothers DO warn their children about you. and maybe you ARE a monster. and whatever you do you can't seem to claw yourself #out. you can only hurt the people you care about. and so demanding yourself is the only way you can create peace. #and the only thing you can't do. #only to find out that love is all around you and yes even if you were literally a monster you would have love. and you would be saved #and the world is always saving you and transpiring for you to be loved and nothing that's happened defines you #and you look back and the ways you responded were always from the heart. even if they seemed to end badly. it wasn't the end! #it wasn't the end and you did everything you can and someday #you both get to choose who you want to be. and maybe you can't create your circumstances the way you'd like. but the way you respond to them #is everything you are. and everything you've become. and really even if you can't see the good in it yet- #someone will. #and they'll love you and cherish you and someday. you will too #(blows my nose) #hello jacehawks

i wish i had a ghost or spirit creature who was a sentient part of me who could get an outside perspective on my behaviour so i know if i am genuinely abnormal and weird or just an overthinker
