So I know people hate Kipperlilly and that's valid, but the tragedy of her existing as she is especially after the most recent episode actually makes me feel so bad for her. I hope the rat grinders get redemption.

Kipperlilly has wanted to succeed for so long, she had irrational hatred for her peers because she wanted success and glory and was unremarkable in her life. She was jealous and trying and thought that her unremarkable existence could be overshadowed if she simply was the best. But everything she did to get success only further cemented her into being forgettable. She gets so angry over this and as someone who was an irrationally angry teenager I get it so much.

And she was aware of this. She regularly visited Jawbone and we can't pretend it wasn't because she was selfaware of her own shortcomings. She knew her anger was messed up and I just know she was trying to figure out some way to get rid of it. Because being that angry all the time is horrible. She was probably frustrated and just wanted to cope. And jawbone helped. He wasn't perfect but he helped and that's why this girl from freshman to sophomore year kept returning.

She was self aware enough for his subtle questions to help her calm down. And yet an adult in her life was made aware of her mental health problems and chose to exploit them. Things she confided to a trusted adult got turned back on her leading to her and her party becoming tools, or dying if they refused.

Now kipperlilly isn't faultless. She's killed people, she's antagonistic and cruel, but her being a victim and a teenager just trying to get help makes me so incredibly sad for what she's become.

#kipperlilly copperkettle #molten rambles #fantasy high junior year #fantasy high spoilers #dimension 20 #that much anger is so fucking tiring and frustrating #sometimes all you can do is just cry because you know it doesnt make sense and you dont want it but its there #the fact that she probably wouldve continued to not exist on the bad kids radar if she wasnt exploited kind of makes me crazy #if jace stardiamond is actually fully aware of what hes doing ill kill him myself tbh

Riz has spent this whole season, struggling so much and trying so hard to squeeze blood from a stone, to be in a dozen places at once, to stay afloat, to secure his future, to save the world (again), barely having time to spend with his mom and literally having to be in hell so he can have a few blessed minutes to chat with his murdered father about work (which yes, is an act of love when a Gukgak is doing it but God, he's so tired).

And Kipperlilly is watching this kid, who is taking stress tokens for his friends even though he's at capacity himself, whose blood is more coffee than anything else at this point because you can't solve problems when you're asleep, who signed up for an exam with a 100% mortality rate for lack of other viable options, and saying to herself, "You lucky bastard. It's not fair."

#every bit of rat grinder lore makes me more fascinated by them #theyre emotional teenagers who got manipulated by someone in a position of power over them #and it makes me want to know more #i want to dig into their brains like we did with Kipperlilly #its so tragic to because she was handling her rage #and someone used her for their own means #i cant wait to see what happens after this #fantasy high junior year #fantasy high spoilers

If I had a nickel for every time a cleric of Helio died, met Helio, and then starting worshipping a dead deity instead I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's hilarious that it's happened twice

no fr which WT employee is currently any%ing the platform into hell

this is so fucking nuts esp when you just KNOW it's because of their stupid fucking "super likes" thing that they don't want to be affected by the far superior crowdfunding platforms out there

canvas creators aren't even affected by all the contract bullshit that's been coming out lately but they definitely WILL be affected by this shit if it sticks

#itll be a while before i post any comic content #but this does help me once and for all decide to completely avoid webtoon #this is insane

Well I got unknowingly charge 30 dollars by skillshare despite never getting an email reminder because I forgot about the free trial and canceling my membership. And they won't let me refund because "You're not in the free trial stage anymore" despite me trying to get a refund on the same day as the charge.

Fuck skillshare man, what the fuck.

#i literally cant afford random 30 dollar charges #im so fucking pissed off rn #who the fuck doesnt let customers refund 30 and 100 dollar charges they accidentally received #never buy skillshare what the fuck is wrong with them

You ever read a webcomic that is so emotionally draining and painful but well written that you're now hooked. But you also know not to look in the comments because people won't think about the nuance of the plot and just side with the MC even if the MC is flawed.

Can't recommend it to anyone probably but here's an emotional mood board to explain my mental state after just 15 chapters:

#like if i recommend it ill have to add trigger warnings #but damn if the author doesnt do a great job of making the situation fucking complicated and painful #like no these two cant have a happy romance #the ml is angry and his anger makes sense #the fl isnt flawless and maybe she was naive and innocent but the author doesnt use that to excuse pain she unintentionally causes #no one in this story is above criticism and it hurts

I got in 1 of 2 albums from a band I like who broke up almost a decade ago and haven't released music even separate since from what I've seen. Their most popular song only has 89k views on YouTube but I just know if they promoted in the age where accessibility was easier they'd have a larger fanbase.

My two favorite songs off their second album because I need people to enjoy them as I do.

#music recommendations #speak band #molten rambles #heavy metal war was on repeat for me junior year of high school #Spotify #we can complain about tik tok all we want but at least musicians were easier to hear about than before
