#which is just uncool

[shoulderfins]

I got rejected by a guy friend I really like and he cited me being "too queer" as one of the reasons he couldn't see me as more than a friend. this has sent my gender crisis into absolute overdrive (probably about time, no hate) and I'm oscillating rapidly between "guess I was too much of a man for you to handle, bro" and "please give me a chance to be a girl I can be so girl I'm adorable please :((("

#he told me I shouldn't try to date straight men #which is just uncool #but also yep never discussing potential nonbinaryness with a guy I like ever again

big big big fan of found family relationships with shithead sibling dynamics

sure, yeah, they had no one in the world until they found each other, and they will fight tooth and nail for each other's safety, but they will also eat the last of the other's cereal and put the box back in the cabinet or tell the other's significant other every embarrassing story about them or greet each other by means of full body tackle and chokehold

#ragsycon exclusive #mark and pip have this dynamic and it gives me so much joy #she gives him so much shit for being awkward and painfully uncool but she will not hesitate to stab someone for being mean to him #he's focusing on something & doesn't hear her come in the room and she slaps him on the shoulder which startles him so badly he alert barks #which he is instantly mortified by the fact that he just literally actually barked and goes 'please don't tell anyone that happened' #to which pip responds by showing him her phone screen where she has just texted literally everyone that this just happened #...... #hall of fame

chetney: he’s hittin on my girl..

imogen immediately: is she really though.

#critical role #cr lb #IMOGEN PLEASE YOU HAVE TWO HANDS #which just furthers my insane isolated propaganda that imogen was silently infinitesimally uncool about him getting with her

bill cipher is the character ever. he swears in cartoon sound effects. he has beef with a baby. he didn't know what colors were until he was like at least 27. he's the most powerful being to ever visit earth. he only exists in dreams. he's an alcoholic. he's a victorian. he almost certainly worked retail. he doesn't know about his own gender. he also doesn't care about his own gender. he's depressed. he likes silly straws. he knows everything. he's stupid as shit. he thinks that normal is just a setting on a washing machine. he's touchy about his sides being uneven. he's a flatland oc. he's owned by disney. he responds to "willy." he thinks in all caps. he has a reddit account

#i always think it's really funny when people rewatch gravity falls and are like 'oh bill is uh. kinda stupid' like yeah!!!!!!!!! #that's why he rocks so much!!!! he's just a pathetic little man with a manipulative streak and godlike powers banking on the sales skills h #was forced into learning as a flatlander!!! he's so uncool in every way and that's why he's great!!!!! #his whole plan is just 'manipulate people a bunch so i can throw the sickest rager with my pals because i'm a repressed victorian' #which is DELIGHTFUL! it makes him one of the most funny characters ever #also i purposefully put 'touchy about his sides being uneven' next to 'flatland oc' for a reason #another url i considered was irregularbillcipher so. that's my highly specific hc of the day

giving psych another go after having watched the first season and a bit a couple years ago before stopping because I hadn't really been feeling it

only like six or seven eps in this time, and I am enjoying it, and I would like to stick with it this time, but god, now I do remember why I gave up on it in the first place. for all the show has going for it (which is a lot!) so much of the tone (and shawn is usually the biggest offender) falls back on those really insufferable attitudes from the mid ’00s of like. hit on every woman you see, getting laid is always the biggest priority. kneejerk disdain for anything nerdy or "uncool." I'm a guy and that means I care about porn and sports and that's it

#like yeah it's fun when shawn gets blindsided by a woman (bc she's hot ofc) only to get a reveal later that she was the bad guy #but also I'd rather he just. treated women like people in the first place lmao #and I'm sure he does later! like everything I've seen of late series him and juliet looks good and intriguing #but we're starting from such a rough place. and like. is the show aware? #bc then you've got gus who doesn't conform to those same masculine behaviors (often to set up a punchline for shawn) #but gus himself doesn't feel like a punchline or stereotype. he feels well-rounded and is often validated by the circumstances #it's just bizarre. wondering if this is one of those cases where s1 of a show feels least tonally accurate #e.g. how it's initially pitched or what it plays up for viewership or attention vs. how it settles into itself down the line #but man I'm over s1 shawn. like I'm watching the convention ep and he's being so unnecessarily dickish and dismissive to gus and everyone #because it's nerd shit? it's uncool? this just feels like such an outdated sensibility #(which it is. it's 18 years old at this point. these sensibilities are now legal adults) #but I'm glad we as a culture moved past this energy and I'm ready for the show to do the same #psych #kayla posts

23 is young and i don't wanna go acting like it isn't but sometimes i see stuff from baby zoomers and i feel fucking ancient. skibidi toilet? i have yet to understand what that's referencing. reality shifting? i was into new agey stuff as a teen and i get the whole law of attraction/manifestation thing, but the rest is all greek to me. a good half of the aesthetics i see talked about online? literally got overwhelmed when i stumbled on the aesthetics wiki last year and i feel like an idiot seeing all these kids list off like 4 different hyperspecific aesthetics to describe themselves 😭 girl what does any of that mean? patiently explain it like i'm 85 when it comes up, or don't expect me to know what the hell you're talking about. i'll just end up smiling and nodding like your out of touch grandpa who loves your energy but is frightened by cellphones and the concept of smartfridges 💀💀💀

#i genuinely am not dunking on any of this stuff (i have no idea what any of it is in detail lmao) and i think it's lame #as hell to dunk on young ppl stuff just bc it's enjoyed by young ppl. regardless i have no idea what's going on with the youth sometimes #and i don't think that's ever gonna change. i don't rlly care to devote a lot of time to stay Cool and Hip bc i'm NOT steve buscemi and i'm #okay with being viewed as uncool but it still surprises me the extent to which this is already happening to me and i'm not even 25 #back in MY day we had gangnam style & vine compliations & i was only mosscore with a hint of dark academia and that's how we LIKED it! /s #i honestly feel more in touch with millenials then i do anyone too young to remember the great recession or life before the omnipresence of #the internet. that's surely due in part to us being legal adults but also bc i think anyone who HASN'T experienced a childhood without #smartphone access or one free of years of economic struggle has a much different life experience than i do. i didn't get a phone til 12 and #i didn't get a smartphone til 14/15ish. i never complain abt gas prices like my parents do bc i grew up when it was $3-$5. i can't eat #canned peaches bc they remind me of '07-'11. this isnt to say i had it harder - i wasn't a kid during covid - but its slightly harder to #relate to #len speaks

why are you, as an adult in 2024, still hung up on reylo. why are you still mocking the shippers. why do you believe yourself to be superior only because you dislike a stupid ship from a fucking space fairytale. girl (gnc) get a grip

#it's ridiculous. this ship is... stupidly cliché. like if you know fandoms at all #you could easily guess why people would be into it. hello?? have you tried to watch tfa without your hate-on-kyle-ron goggles? #did you watch their scenes together? you don't have to like something to recognize the hints #hell. at the time i didn't really like jonerys but i realized they were going to be a thing when i read agot in 2011 #like folks. it's been nearly TEN LONG YEARS. let it go. LET IT FUCKING GOOOO #and for the lucy/cooper shippers out there who think reylos are (again) delusional when they compare the two ships: #no. *you* are being delusional only because you think reylo is unsexy and uncool (which is your right to think btw. obv) #if you can't see why someone would like both of these pairings for similar reasons... idk what to say honestly #people compared it to hannigram... honestly. again i see why they would appeal to anyone who's into both ships #i really do. but... unpopular opinion (since i'm more of a clannibal fan than i could ever be of reylo): #they are more similar to reylo than will/hannibal. there i said it #i'm not talking about the writing (admittedly the quality of it was questionable). i'm talking about tropes #never mind that imo the ghoul is more akin to vader than kylo but whatever #hannibal is an unapologetic kind of villain. he's not gonna have a redemption arc and that's okay #cooper is an antivillain who used to be a good man and became a disfigured cruel bastard. a parody of himself #lucy is him. him before the bombs dropped before he discovered the person he trusted the most wanted to commit genocide #nice. moral. polite. infused with the Good Old American Values™. he's basically her dark side #all of this is very hannigram/clannibal. i'm not denying it at all #but what'll likely happen is that lucy's actions will have a positive influence on the ghoul and remind him of what it means to be a man #and that's way more reylo-like. sorry. #beauty&thebeast/villain with some hidden good in him+morally righteous heroine/enemies to lovers etc. #i mean. hello??..... having said that. i'm not so much of a reylo shipper anymore and tbh never was. i really liked it at the time #but i was never fond of the st era. my fav characters are vader and leia and revan from the old eu. just saying #*and* it's also not impossible lucy gets darker with the ghoul as her traveling companion. in fact i wouldn't dislike it at all #if done well i mean #but i would still like for people to be intellectually honest and less puerile. god knows i have my notps #but i really don't give a fuck about the shippers. good for them i guess? i have better taste lmao but that's heavily subjective #val rambles in the tags #val speaks #txt

(mgv) good morning. picture this: house's leg acting up while wilson is over so wilson offers to massage it for him. house gripes for a second, jokes about them not beating the homosexuality allegations, but relents. and while wilson is working out the knots, the relief is so palatable that house lets out the purrs he's been keeping a tight hold on ever since the spasm started. they're good ones, too, the tone and breathing just right to let you know he feels good. at that point house has relaxed back into the couch with his eyes closed so he doesn't see how wilson visibly perks up when he hears it. mr needs to be needed, bitching provider, doctor husband -- compounded with his status as an alpha, having proof that he makes house feel better, that he's good at what he's doing, he preens, working the muscles harder with a smile. it's so domestic and soft that wilson starts purring too, his lower and more rumbling compared to house's.

(they don't talk about it once the moment's over. back to the status quo.)

#house md #hilson #the fact omegaverse stuff has like nearly no universal rules means i have even more leeway to make shit up #it's great! barbies unlimited!!! #hc that not all alphas can purr (not all omegas can either but if an omega can't purr it's considered a defect) #(which is uncool and just discrimination. and like sexism 2. especially bc purring alphas are considered sexy by most) #omegaverse worldbuilding can be very fun if you stop thinking about the sex stuff that's a hill i'll die on #purring alphas are like 40%~ of the population | purr-disabled omegas are at about 20% #neither instances are rare but they're uncommon enough for genpop to have opinions #neither instances have any links to physical ailments but can in the case of omegas supplement mental illness via -> #<- the stigma (depression anxiety etc for being found less desirable by partners) #some alphas may also bully those who can purr on the basis of them resembling omegas themselves #but societal movements mean over the years such incidents become less common #mgv

crude humor warning

------

"Okay so Estinien is avoiding Aymeric because he's worried about . . . about - "

"Hang on i'm running from the Halonic Inquisition-"

"-Phew, got away - anyway Estinien doesn't want to hang around Aymeric and keep his hopes up because he's worried his come counts as dragon's blood now, y'know, bodily fluids and all that, maybe even spit, and he doesn't want to risk it-"

a giant spear of light streaks across the heavens and stabs me through the neck, killing me instantly

around the corner, Estinien passes gil into the hands of a shadowy figure in church robes. He mourns, but he does not regret

the world shall never know the truth

(mild DRK spoilers: Rielle's mom did not instantly turn inside out into a dragon from her snatch after sleeping with her husband, so this is likely to not be a real concern. Buuuut with Nidhogg himself affecting Estinien, who knows?)

#im going to the seven hells. which one? all of them. #crude humor #estinien varlineau #estinien #estimeric #aymeric de borel #ffxiv nidhogg #estinien wyrmblood #aymeric x estinien #fantasy illnesses/transformations as A!DS metaphor are extremely uncool actually #j/k/r can suck my clitordick #this is just a joke

Often I look back at my life and in particular my debased, pusillanimous fear of catching myself enjoying cringey neckbeard geek shit and I am overcome with shame and guilt and self-revulsion, but I can at least console myself that I was an unabashed homestuck. That has to shave off a few years of inauthenticity-purgatory

#faildaughters of the world unite #idk if I can live down not being a Weeb when it was mega uncool #tbf I think I just did not know about anime in hs and filled this hole in my heart with wikimedia shunga instead #and early 20th cent bushido fetishism #which is probably about as cringe? #I was SUCH a disgusting coward in college tho #a permanent indictment of my underlying character

Updated my carrd to be more in line with my current feelings. Mainly changed my list of friends, like removed some and added Sim where he belongs.

Also, I moved Levi and S-tan into friends too because that better reflects how I feel about them atm and how I've been writing my SI's canon.

And I don't feel like sharing my two remaining romantics. If we're mutuals already, it's perfectly fine. Just not with people I don't know 🥰

#I love Levi and S-tan very much but lately I just feel like Im performing the romantic aspects #which is like totally uncool #all the other characters are platonics too but I really don't feel like listing every single one #so these are the top ones #but know that I love them all very much 🫶 #sunny speaks

it honestly crushes me to no end that my sibling hates sleep token with a burning passion.

they are one of the most musically literate people i’ve ever known, bastard can teach themself any instrument they want in minimal time. (for example, they were early to a piano lesson so in the 15 minutes they had to wait they taught themselves a song on cello. they had never touched a cello before)

but their hatred of sleep token means i have no one with a similar (and stronger) musical knowledge to discuss the music in depth. my theory is shaky at best and i’ve never liked it, but my sibling knows all of it. and i so desperately need someone i can scream about the musical genius that is vessel. his arrangements and vocal choices and breath control and and and…

there’s so much to cover and no one in my life with the knowledge to go over it with that will enjoy it. it’s awful lol

#sleep token #ramble on exie #sleep token vessel #siblings #music theory #why are siblings so uncool sometimes #my sibling is one of the coolest people i know but their music taste baffles me sometimes #how can you listen to the prog sun genre of literally anything and not like sleep token? #they love prog metal! which is the weirdest part! #i love talking music with my dad because he was in a band #but his theory is about as good as mine (read: not very) so we have to just talk vibes #my mom has no musical background to speak of #none of my friends are musical either like how did i get cursed like this

[obstinatecondolement]

I find it deeply weird when I see other white people make sneeringly condemning posts about how corny and/or stupid white people are for things that are completely unrelated to racism or stuff that upholds systemic racism in any way. Like... dude. My guy. I do not think this is the substantive allyship to people of color that you believe it to be.

#also just saying but 'white people are uniquely corny' is not entirely harmless as sentiments go #since it implicitly denies the full breadth of humanity to... most humans #by positioning white people as uniquely capable of the flaw of being dumb and uncool #and positions entirely fucking harmless things as irrevocably tied to the violent and unearned privilege of whiteness #which probably is not awesome for poc who happen to be corny in the ways being decried by these posts?? #also not to 'we are all africans' but like race is a social construct and whiteness is just a made up idea #which arbitrarily groups together completely unrelated cultures of people with the intent to punish people outside the 'being white' club

watching spring break! I believe in you! part 1 (continuing from yesterday) and i think i figured out why i dont like galicaea, the part where she says the goddess of mystery got rid of her name on purpose bc it "fit her brand" completely contradicts what we've learned as part of the season's lore, and it goes against what we saw in the temple- why kristen's dead in the first place, AND the way brennan says it just makes it sound so dismissive, like "yeah thats my wacky sister she's so dumb she got rid of her name just bc she thought it'd make her cooler lmao" like thats so not cool galicaea

#galicaea feels really uncool and also i think she's trying to poach helio's chosen for herself #which is very in line with how gods view mortals #just. hey that's a shiny little toy i want it #except the toy is a whole person with feelings #fantasy high #fantasy high sophomore year
