#AND THE SAME AGE RANGE TOO

[weightedblankettt]

JUST. JUST HEAR ME OUT.

So, i normally don't tend to gravitate towards crack ships, but I saw a post by this one nsfw account that wouldn't stop posting on the main tag, and i couldn't help but take a liking to this silly little pairing, so. ahem. presenting...

cat fight. hakomaku. whatever you want to call them. i'm losing my mind and it's a thursday evening and oh my god they're so cute. PLEASE. HEAR ME OUT. PLEASE, PELASE, PLEASE

I think one of the most surprising parts of transition, specifically going on testosterone, is just how... normal it felt to me. When I was watching other people go on testosterone and describe how they felt, I anticipated that I'd feel the huge emotions, the spark, I guess. But I didn't. If anything, I went from being a neurotic mess to being... normal. Almost painfully normal. It's like I've gotten a cloth and dusted off this thing I call my body.

I honestly think it's interesting how natural I feel on testosterone. I never really thought I could feel this normal, but I do. It's like I can stand in a crowd and not feel like eyes are watching me, like ants crawling on a log.

#trans #transgender #lgbt #lgbtq #ftm #nonbinary #HAVING FEELINGS #like i watched this guy talk about how... almost explosive it feels for him on testosterone... #...and he was talking about it like 'RAAAAAGH FUCK I'M SUDDENLY FILLED WITH THE URGE TO PUNCH DRYWALL' #'ANGRY...HUNGRY' and i think that's completely fine. but it was weird when i didn't experience that #instead of being like... i guess hormonal??? i just feel like i can take a deep breath for once #(though i do relate to when he was like 'I NEED TO EAT EVERYTHING IN THE HOUSE 🤬') #but yeah... i guess this is me just being fascinated at how the same exact hormone even at the same levels will feel and look so different #like to me that's magic. like the human body is the messiest result of pure magic to me #i guess to me it's so interesting that people have an intense experience on testosterone when i just do not #(and my levels are normal for my body/age range. it is painfully in the middle of normal in fact) #(though i am overdue for labs. i was JUST talking about labs with my dad too 💀)

Forget about all my other aus tbh. To appease my own hyperfixated mind, I made a swap au with no demand whatsoever. Welcome to my Soukoku <--> Suegiku au! A quick rundown on everyone below.

CHUUYA: After the incident following Verlaine and Rimbaud taking young Chuuya out of the labs, the path changes when he's given to the government as planned. Raised to be the most ideal weapon an ability user can be, he's perfectly loyal, perfectly powerful and perfectly emotionally stunted, as a tool should be. Akin to a little victorian boy in how little he knows about the world.

DAZAI: Previously involved with criminals, he accepted a deal to change sides in order to be a powerful tool for the government after being caught at an young age. Why? Mostly out of curiosity. His previous life didn't give him what he wanted, so maybe this one would. A bad choice from a teenager as now he can't leave no matter how much he may (deep down) want, so he's quite jaded. He has no care whatsoever for the people he's protecting, buut he's really good at lying.

JOUNO: The ‘pale harbinger’ of the port mafia, the youngest Executive in its history. He deals with people that could come up as… complications in the mafia’s day to day operations. Surprisingly sweet to his subordinates, though how much affection is genuine and how much is manipulation is a grey area. A constant thorn in Mori’s side, but a needed one that makes the PM stable. The brains in double black on the times they work together.

TECCHOU: An executive of the port mafia, but it would be more adequate to call him it’s dog. He specializes in assassination, but he also deals with protecting the trade routes for the other major port mafia businesses. A very aloof figure to even his subordinates, of which he doesn’t have many as he’s a one man army and prefers to work that way. The overwhelming might of double black when they work together. He delivers justice how he sees fit, working with the mafia under the genuine believe they do what's right.

how jade & the harpers look according to my brain:

jade — skin is a warm tan, smooth to the touch. beauty mark beneath the corner of her right eye. wavy, black hair that stops just below mid-back, cut in layers for volume. lips are plush, usually painted with red or nude gloss. long eyelashes. green eyes with golden flecks that convey her emotions and thoughts better than words can. a small tattoo of a pink lotus flower on her left breast, and a faded scar on her sternum from vandal savage. lean, curvy build, but one cannot accurately gage her strength by looking at her, unless they’re prone to underestimate. gold hoops, gold bracelets, gold necklaces—all gold jewelry.

roy — sporting a perpetual tan, one might call him sun-kissed. auburn hair that lightens to ginger in the summertime, straight and pushed back by sunglasses. nose is crooked from one too many injuries. silver hoops or studs in his ears, depending on the day. eyes the color of a lake, blueish-green. light dusting of freckles on his skin, particularly his back. beard that tows the line between stubble and scruff. the physique of a rugby player; thick arms and legs but softer stomach, broad shoulders. several scars all over his body, most notably the bullet wounds & surgery scar on his chest. two tattoos: navajo one on his right arm and lian’s initials over his heart.

lian — face is her mother’s but younger, softened by lingering baby fat, and dotted with a light smattering of freckles. skin is a light, warm beige. hazel-colored eyes and full lashes. dark brown, nearly black hair with a brown balayage, usually tied back in a ponytail or braid unless at an event or hanging with friends. double pierced ears and a cartilage piercing on the left ear. she smiles like roy. athletic build, only a few inches shorter than jade but gaining on her. couple of scars on legs and fading bruises from playing sports (lacrosse, skateboarding, etc.). always has one headphone in her ear. combines metals when she wears jewelry.

#📝 #jade nguyen #roy harper #lian harper #long post #now lian’s description is more for an older version of her #high school age range #again i say she looks a lot like her mom but a lot of her mannerisms are from her dad #same smile and same way of carrying themselves #what a pretty family let’s talk about it #maybe i’ll rb and throw tommy and uncle dick in there later #since i have specific images of them in my head too #when you read my fics this is what they look like #even if i might not describe it all that well loll

ok so im doing some deep-diving on swindle's origins and....if we take djw's tweets into account...would this mean swindle is around 2 BILLION years old???

im gonna be honest. idk how to feel about that

that quite possibly puts him in the "old fart territory" with ratchet and megatron

is...is swindle OLDER than those two??? or is he younger?? and by how much???

im so conflicted rn

#i thought he'd be around 70 million or so #i figured he'd be in the same age range as megatron #but if the whole protectobot thing is actually canon... #that makes our boy swindle here an actual fossil #a historical artifact #if you will #lock him up in a museum #send him into a retirement home #he's too old to be in the arms dealing business #ofc there COULD exist the possibility that swindle is actually just 70 million years old #the autobots and protectobots couldve coexisted around the 750 million to 12 million mark #but idek atp #im going to shut up now #tfa #transformers animated #tfa swindle #swindle #tf swindle

[the-mononoke-facade]

Nevermind trying to figure out whether they're talking about flowers or one of the characters (the o in front of Hana actually makes that quite obvious, who'd've thunk it)

Are these little girls or are they young women? Are you talking about a dad or a husband? Which girl's perspective are we even dealing with here? Augh!

#mononoke #mononoke book #adventures in japanese #seriously who the fuck uses the exact same word for “dad” and “husband” help me #and then shoujou was used interchangably with musume in the last story (young girl vs girl of marrying age but also daughter) #so the fact that they're using shoujou here too actually does shockingly little to clear up the general age range were talking about #besides life stages in japan were determined by dress anyway at this time not actual age #which makes it even more confusing in text #its not like there are a lot of character descriptions #like the only one ive seen really get any sort of in-depth description is kusu every time #and i think thats really more to highlight just how much his appearance stands out from the norm than anything #and people can just translate between these two wildly different languages like its nothing like holy shit #how

i feel like i see posts like this so much and it's kind of weird bc this applies only to like. a very specific subset of people (ppl who are into phineas and ferb + aware of the "two nickels" thing being repostet a lot) which is like. a subset of people in a fairly specific age range (the right age to have watched phineas and ferb so like. idk 15 - 30 year olds probably being generous) AND are active on specific social media platforms to have seen this joke repeated a lot so it burrows into their memory bc most people who just casually watched phineas and ferb aren't that likely to remember this specific moment (i know i didn't without the meme). and idk this is not a big deal i just find it interesting how often people online will post about something that is extremely specific to them and the social circles they move in as if it's a really universal experience

#im def thinking about this too deeply but i see this a lot w very online young people #even where they'll be like 'omg everyone in gen Z is like THIS' and its like #no not everyone in your generation is a certain way it's just that #you don't really interact with people outside of your specific circles #be it online or physical #like online you probably algorythmically get promoted things that confirm your world view bc that is the things you're interested in #so you get a sort of feedback loop of people in your same age range #who get promoted similar content based on age and browsing habits #and you're not gonna really break out of that unless you really look for it #and physically you hang out with your friends who have the same interests as you and are likely in similar economical and social situations #and are likely at your school or uni so you're in really similar situations #its even happened to me bc back in the day i never liked using twitter but my friends who were on twitter were really confused when #i didn't get the 'twitter idioms' even though we move in similar circles i just hadn't been introduced to things specifically popular on tw #twitter #so things that seemed universal to them were completely new to me #and the other way around too where i think smth is extremely generally well known but people i talk to have no idea what's up #my sister who's two years older than me probably doesn't even remember phineas and ferb that well just bc she wasn't that into cartoons #idk. all that to say. #your experiences are not universal #the life and times of brows

idk if this is controversial but tbh in stardew valley-like games i think that tons of developers create way too many characters, especially dateable characters. like one of the strengths of stardew valley was that the characters were interesting and unique, but there weren't so many that you forgot who they were

#ankelia talks n talks #stardew valley #like i was playing coral island and that game is good but also theres WAY too many dateable characters so they dont stand out #same thing with my time in portia #also in stardew its nice that all the dateable characters are a range of ages so depending on your headcanon you can pick someone who fits

Does anyone in the Tomorrow series ever actually... tell Ellie that what happened in NZ wasn't her fault?? That it's absolutely different to what Lee chose to do, in that she had her choice taken away? That it's not lame or weak or a reflection on her in any way? Because I know the way she's dealing with it is realistic for a lot of people but I also think it's really important that a series aimed at kids acknowledges that it wasn't her fault instead of inadvertently teaching them that it's okay to internalise all this, and by extension that Ellie was right to blame herself. Idk. I just know that if I had read the series through when I first started it at 12, I would have learnt from Ellie, and it's getting hard to read now, thinking that some kids would have.

#tomorrow when the war began #ellie linton #ellie tomorrow when the war began #the tomorrow series #tomorrow when the war began books #anyway I just read the bit where Fi is telling her that Lee sleeping with the enemy and risking all their lives is the same as Ellie #sleeping with the guy in Wellington and I know Fi doesn't know that Ellie was coerced and raped but it's still bloody hard to read #especially because Ellie says about how she wants to tell Fi that he got her drunk and forced her into it and she didn't have the energy to #fight back but then she says 'But I knew it'd sound too lame.' Like I know. I KNOW that's a reasonably normal reaction to something like #that happening to you. But equally it's not actually true. And while the character might not recognise that the author and audience should #It could have at least been phrased as her Feeling like it would sound lame instead of Knowing #because it's phrased as a fact not the character's thoughts and feelings and I don't think many people in the target age range of these #books will be reading it critically enough to be thinking about how she's an inherently unreliable narrator as all first hand accounts tend #to be. They'll read something phrased as a fact about a topic that they haven't really learnt anything else about and assume it's at least #little bit true

"SL Ragnarok is a BL" just has to be one of the funniest things I've heard on a hanging threat like– mate I freaking wish but is there literally anyone out there in the SL world that wants Sung Suho as a partner?

Not a single girl with romantic interest has approached him in the span of 150+ chapters, it's definetly the same for boys.

Jin woo at least showed some attraction with JuHee and Cha at this point in the story, meanwhile the only thing on Suhos mind is killing.

#the only person that adores him is also his own shadows #its quay honestly #its quay #Baek Miho? the only reason she was interested in him was because they had to catch a villain toguether. on both arcs #Esil? Sure she is there for him for a long time but nothing romantic has happened between them like at all #the rest are either with someone else or too old/young or out to kill him (Arsha) and none too central to the story tbh #funniest shit is that Ryo Sigh has the highest posibilities to be a good boyfriend figure to Suho xdxd #Is not bloodthristy. Is prob the same age range as him. Spoils Suho. gives Suho a ring on the first day they meet (out of context xd). #Helps Suho wherever he can. doesnt outright hate demons or beasts. precious uwu bean must protect. #actively trying to learn korean for him and also apologizes for his mistakes that he didnt too but still were trsuted upon him #appears in more than one arc #has the guts to willingly go and protect Suho from Thomas fuking Andre 💀 (he didnt but the thought is what counts) #all of this just to get suho to join his guild #fuking love that guy i wanna see the webtoon interpretation of himmmm #solo leveling manwha #solo leveling spoilers #rangarok spoilers #sung suho

been rewatching atla recently and its wild to finally recognize Just How Much this show impacted me not only artistically but also just like.. fundamentally as a person

#how fucking spoiled i am to have been exposed to this show at such a fundamental age #i would not be the same person i am today without avatar i think #its hard to give specifics too because its just.....So Much..... #like i Could give specifics but id just end up writing an essay #to this day its still one of if not my biggest artistic inspiration #rewatching atla with my current 'artistic eye' has ben hilarious honestly WHAT a fucking impact this show has had on my style #like i Knew it impacted me obviously like its obvious but also like...i was kind of shocked watching it shdfjks still a huge inspiration #even after all these years #i love u avatar #not only ur style but also ur wide range of subject matter and cast of characters will always be so inspirational to me #like Thats the goal #atla is required viewing in this household #it speaks

[memorys-skyscraper]

man im watching clips of y8 with the eng dub and its uh. i mean, kasuga and chitose sound alright? robbie daymond makes a decent zhao too (and can sing, damn), but the rest...............

#rambles #yakuza liveblogging #i think some VAs were straight up miscast #like kiryu and adachi sound WAY too young #and them + nanba + yamai all sound like theyre going for a voice thats way lower than their normal range #so it sounds very forced/unnatural- they shouldve just cast people with deeper voices if thats what they wanted #but others seem like a case of poor direction #like tomi sounds too...... peppy? i guess? #his character is very reserved/introverted so in jp he speaks with a pretty flat/monotonous affect most of the time #but in the dub he talks like a pretty normal somewhat outgoing dude so you lose that dimension of his character #same with joongi and seonhee- in jp they speak with a particular precision/sophistication #theyre leaders of a huge organization and as such are very careful with their words and you can hear that in their tone #but that element is completely missing from the eng dub #how kiryu's eng voice has been handled in particular is baffling- i know they recast him after 7 with some youtuber #which like. not knocking youtubers as a whole but the dude simply does not fit the part #and i looked up the VA they'd used for kiryu previously and he's fine? like nobody can ever be takaya kuroda but the old VA fit way better #plus hes like. actually close to kiryu's age (58) vs the new guy who's 32. and of course VAs can play characters of a variety of ages #but when the main problem with the new voice is that he sounds too young and you had a guy who sounds better and is the right age.... #why recast him??? i dont get it. even if the old VA was no longer an option for some reason *surely* there was a better fit out there

//so...i'm just learning about some BL comic where one of the characters looks like this

and turns out that he's also apparently some gang boss (he's in his mid-30s, so like.. 10-ish years older than PB!Speebs), and he's also tall and buff too?????????? The lighting here doesn't really show it, but he appears to be blond in almost every other colored pic I've seen (his hair curly/wavy)

#[i rarely ever read BL stuff bc it's usually full of the Traditionally Bishounen Types of guys and 'clichés' and whatnot] #[so this caught me completely off guard and its quite a pleasant surprise too] #[ngl i'm kinda considering using him as a faceclaim for speebs in those verses where he's in that same age-range (30s)] #[obvs after he cut his hair and etc] #[might have to do something about the tattoos or completely ignore them tho lol] #[would that be Controversial in some way?] #[idk anything about this ma/nh/wa save for some of the info in the tv/tro/pes page] #[i also don't know anything about ma/nh/wa fans or if anyone would get mad at me for borrowing him as a fc if i do lol] #[one of the reasons i rarely -if ever- do fcs for speebs is the fact that there are not a lot of characters out there who share similar #facial features as him (scar on the same spot. those 'lines/bags' under the eyes. thick eyebrows. etc)] #[so this is like a huge surprise due to all the similarities there] #[the other thing i'm fearing based on the summaries i've read so far is that there might not be a wide range of expressions for this guy] #[so there's that too uu] #;tbd #[any opinions mayhaps?]

Why do people like. Make me feel weird about being attracted to people my own age. Like I’m 24 and I’ll say that someone who’s like 22-26 is cute (anyone younger than like 21 is probs a no for me) and people will be like um they look like a fucking child you freak. Like sorry not everyone I’m attracted to looks like someone’s parent? Sorry I wanna feel worthy of people in my age group being into me too? I’m in college and want the life experience of having partners who are also in college? But then when I have partners who are 30+ people tell me I’m a victim. Why is everyone so ready to make trans and disabled ppl feel creepy for not just being fuckin ace I don’t get it WHO am I supposed to like

#mine #txt #got reminded of this bc of a post where someone said it’s a red flag to be attracted to the percy jackson guy bc he looks like a baby #my coworkers do this constantly like I’m known as Guy Who Fucks Older Men #but then if someone my literal same age is into me and I’m into them too it’s like ‘um wtf they’re not my personal type so you’re weird’ #like yeah lady you’re in your late 30s it makes sense for u to think someone in their early-mid 20s looks young FOR YOU #and same w people my age like. you have the privilege of dating within ur age range so u don’t know any other experience #but it’s like fucked up of me to want that? #its similar to how ppl treat gender and attraction like ur literally just not supposed to like anyone #bc it’s all sinful just in different ways #should not have to FUCKING say this but don’t use this post to justify any actual whack shit #my whole point is DONT equate attraction to like 21-25 year olds w attraction to like. minors. #like if you’re pro fucking whatever don’t touch this #also for context almost all my long term partners have been specifically 2 years older for some reason #so it’s not like it’s Only old men who like me but that’s just like. the most common demographic #I know I’m making many different points in the tags don’t mind me I haven’t slept

What is it about Servamp in particular that keeps giving me new rarepairs?? Like I have some in other fandoms but Servamp is unique in just how many.

#I keep waiting for the point in my Nart rewatch where I end up rotating a character the wrong way and ending with a new ship but nada #Like maybe one or two but but meanwhile in Servamp they just Keep On Coming like. why where are u coming from. #i just finished Jun x Tsubaki and now I added Jeje x Gear and Yumi x Youtarou to my list I'm??? #I know we on Tumblr like to say ''I want to study/dissect this person's brain'' but at this point #The one whose brain I wanna dissect is me WHERE ARE THESE IDEAS COMING FROM WHY ARE THERE SO MANY?? #Guess these characters will have to smooch each other in increasingly unlikely combinations. For some reason. #Also why do I end up with so many Jeje ships. Why is my brain so determined to make people smooch Jeje. #I've written him with... Mikuni Tsurugi Belkia Shamrock... Started one with him and Nicco... Aforementioned Gear in my Todos... #I may only have one brain cell but it is a very determined brain cell #It just aims its determination in weird directions #Welp I didn't mean for this to end up in the tag/search but I'm too lazy to go back and censor all that so uh. So be it I guess. #At least I remembered censoring Nart that fandom is somehow still intimidating #Maybe my brain cell is gonna get Activated by that show once Akatsooki shows up. I do remember being very obsessed with them lmao #And they do have what was it? 12? members that are all about the same-ish age range iirc. give or take one-two. So lots of possible combos #Maybe after that the Nart fandom also turns less intimidating lmao #But I need more Characterization Refreshers before I start writing Fic

AYE! You liked pop? pop! by csr? I recently found the song and omg it's so catchy and reminds me of the innocent cute concept I think? Do you have any thoughts on the group's concept? I find it cute that all the girls are the same age like actual high school class! I realized that's not too common in kpop or at least I can't think of any groups that everyone is the same age off the top of my head

yea i did! however i know truly fuck all about the group, so i don't even know what their concept is. i think that's kind of fun as an idea? they're doing age appropriate stuff too so that's good i suppose. to be honest i am not really interested in following them actively bc i only really liked pop pop and not anything else from their eps, and i don't really find them interesting to watch. also i'm too old for a high school concept lol

#nu'est was almost entirely the same age! #4/5 are 95s (cursed to know theyre the same age as me) and aron is a 93 #also i think the nu'est boys are all like within four months of each other (and me lmao) birthday wise so they really are all the same age #i think their concept was also school based? or at least it was for debut bc face was about bullying #face my beloved......nu'est i miss you so goddamn bad #ateez is 5/8 the same year which is more than half. plus theyre all within a three year range so i count that as being the same age #a lot of the young bgs are all within a few years of each other #just b is like 4/6 01 and two 02s i think? #but yea its pretty rare for groups to be entirely the same year bc it means you have to be rly restrictive with who you cast #or also. theyre lying about birth years lol. since it doesnt matter so much with girls (no enlistment) #restricting casting by a specific year like that instead of range is not at all a general practice #i'm sure there's a lot of options for trainees now but imagine getting someone incredible auditioning and then not casting them #bc theyre one year too old. like that's SUCH a bad idea from a creative standpoint #limiting something by an arbitrary/purely logistical number like that is really dumb in terms of actually getting good talent #csr w #text #answers
