i don't think I've ever enjoyed a birthday party with friends as much as today i am genuinely getting a bit teary eyed

#initially i wasn't planning to do anything but then i thought what the hell what if we go out to drink something #except it was all very up in the air so a good deal of folks couldn't come (which is fine that one's on me)#but the two who COULD make it are genuinely some of the funniest motherfuckers I've ever met and one of them brought his gf along #and we hit it off IMMEDIATELY and THEN we ran into another pal I hadn't seen in a while and hadn't had the chance to invite in person #who also joined in after he finished hanging out with other people and they got me a present????? 😭#i haven't had a birthday with friends in fucking . 3 years between covid and everyone i knew moving away #I'm so happy i think my heart is going to explode #which ik. hey isn't that a very boring and simple hangout YES but also not to me baby i have been in a depression isolation all my teens #i started to genuinely enjoy my day to day life like. 4 months ago ever since starting uni #it feels like turning a new leaf yknow? like. i made it. i made it out. god i could cry #sorry I'm a little drunk

no of fence to jon snow fans who for some reason care about his exact age, but these discussions just annoy me no end. not only bc there's no way any weirwood flashbacks bran has to rhaegar/lyanna will come with time/datestamps, but also bc there's always comments like this:

SEVERAL turns of the moon (ie, months)?! have these people never seen a human baby before or just have no concept of their ages? even if we take into account travel time from the toj to wf, meaning jon was not a newborn too fresh out the oven when catelyn and robb arrived, there's still a difference between a newborn and a 3mo and an even bigger difference between those infants and an older baby 5-7mo. there's very good reasons these lines were cut. whatever birthdates can be worked out internally for jon and robb from when they're first mentioned as 15 and 16 don't matter in the end, bc grrm doesn't care about a consistent timeline and the actual text of catelyn's pov and ned's convo with robert about cheating on her should outweigh any guesstimates about jon's official nameday wrt robb's. catelyn may not have cared for jon, but she would sure as hell have noticed his nameday if it came before robb's and made him ned's firstborn. if jon's birthday canonically came before robb's then either ned's cover story would not involve adultery (not impossible for him to sire a bastard before his wedding), or he'd just give jon a new nameday along with his new name to fit the adultery lie. it makes no sense for him to lie about one and not the other, undermining the big lie with a little public clue of his story not adding up. whatever else she was as a stepmother, cat wasn't stupid and a bastard who was actually the eldest son being raised alongside her trueborn heir could be an even bigger insult than whether he was born of adultery or not.

BUT, the unknowability of jon's true birthday is not the only reason this annoys me, it's bc this is all based on the assumption that jon must be older since rhaegar/lyanna ran off together before ned married cat, as if both boys must have been conceived asap as robb canonically was when his parents consummated their marriage. and that's not how human reproduction works! even if you don't understand how fast babies grow in the first year, you should know that people who get pregnant do so through ovulation cycles and a lucky sperm finding an egg and all that, not just immediately getting knocked up as soon as one has p-in-v sex for the first time. not unless you only know mean girls sex ed where if you have sex you will get pregnant and die. (even tho lyanna did die, there's plenty of canon examples where pregnancy did not lead straight to death. also examples of people who did not get pregnant right away and even some who are/were sexually active and childless without always having moon tea on hand.) we can't know how long lyanna was having sex before that sperm+egg match happened or even how long she was with rhaegar before losing her technical virginity. if they were married, doesn't it make sense to think they didn't consummate their relationship until the wedding night either? that's the only leverage there is to ensure a status as wife rather than just mistress.

and while i just said grrm doesn't care about exact timelines and a lot is still foggy surrounding the rebellion and esp rhaegar, there is one timemarker wrt robert's rebellion he voluntarily threw in, time and time again: that stannis was besieged at storm's end for almost a whole year. that siege, which mind you, did not match the duration of the entire war. it only started after robert won his battles at gulltown and summerhall, returned to storm's end, and then went out and lost the battle of ashford, leaving his homeland open to the reachermen. the same siege which only ended when ned made a detour there after the sack of king's landing, before going to the toj. even if lyanna may not have given birth that exact day ned found her, she could only be waiting in that bloody bed for weeks at the most, not months. so if rhaegar knocked her up the very same night he carried her off and jon was still a newborn when ned found her after the siege of storm's end had ended, wouldn't that mean lyanna was pregnant for well over a year? that's not how human pregnancy works either! so, maybe that's proof that jon and robb, whichever order they were actually born in, were actually very close in age as babies, much closer than if they were both conceived asap.

and really, jon's actual birthdate does not matter imho, when he was raised not just as the bastard to robb's trueborn heir, but with robb also known by catelyn and the world as ned's firstborn (which he was, in any case, as jon was ned's nephew by birth). what difference could a birthdate before robb's make (even were there some means of discovery) after ned, cat, and robb are all dead? if one is looking only at his birth parents then he's only a firstborn child on lyanna's side, but definitely a second son on rhaegar's side. maybe he was always meant to be a second son with a not much older half-brother! even if the aegon fka young griff is not in fact rhaegar's son, he'll still be known as aegon vi targaryen, meaning jon will never be known as any father's elder son. if i may reference mean girls again, it's not going to happen.

#valyrianscrolls #asoiaf #asoiaf meta #robb stark #jonathan snowflake starkgaryen #i want him to succeed me as king in the north #jon snow #ned stark #lyanna stark #like this isn't prompted by anyone except that reddit post and its comments this has just annoyed me for so long #that's why i made that show!robb/show!jon coming of age gifset years ago bc narratively jon is always a second son #bc robb did everything first as elder bro and the only milestones jon will hit first will be the those robb can't since he's dead for good #(obviously starting with jon being first male stark to be brought back from the dead)#not that everyone interested in this debate thinks this way but it just feels tied to the idea of jon being a trueborn heir #not only was he never a bastard he was an eldest boy! eldest surviving boy with those pesky half-dornish sibs gone! point missed.#sorry i just dont think grrm means for a targ restoration with king jon any more than fake eldest boy kendall roy could win his succession #(c)lsb #i had to look up all the quotes on the big storm's end siege bc it makes me feel like i'm taking crazy pills #thinking what abt stannis starving for a year while others are like we just can't know how long rr was. was it even 9mons?#like yeah lollys's pregnancy doesn't add up but bc grrm really slowed the tl down postacok prob w/o really thinking #thats diff from repeatedly saying something lasted almost a year when he didn't have to give such a timeframe!

Interesting licorice cookie fact: he loves food. Any time hes shown with it its generally treated as a big deal for him (and that 1 time he literally cried happy tears over it)

(for the first one its too long to add but this whole bit he goes on to talk to his fans on his story but he keeps getting distracted by the food🙏)

In the Cake Shop event, every time he asks for a cake, he always asks for a lot of toppings. Never a little, never a specific amount, always a lot.

(i have a point abt all of this but i think its cute and in-character that hed always go for the overzealous choice of just adding a bunch of something rather than a sensible amount. also side side note i think its a cute contrast to pomegranate, who always knows exactly how many toppings she wants)

In ovenbreak, when you give him a Licorice Skull Candy, he responds with "This is all for me, right? I'm not sharing!" (Something ill ADD once i find a SCREENSHOT OF IT😡💥)

In the Cake Shop event, (again, in the story) he's really stingy with his cake, and hates the idea of sharing it with anybody

Also licorice is canonically noticeably skinny

Sad licorice cookie fact: when people don't consistently have food (due to neglect, poverty, etc.) its typical for them try to hoard food when they do have the opportunity to get it, even if they're no longer in a spot where they need to do that. Its common for them to take more than they need if its available, usually in an attempt to save what they won't eat now for later.

😶.........idk💀

#source? me.#my therapist brought this idea up to me like a year ago and its literally changed my view on how i treat food forever💀#anyways this isnt as good as my other analysis type post i just feel like posting licorice content :p #licorice cookie #slrry if some of this doesnt make sense im a little tired #i think aout him a lot #hopefully ppl also get this 1 idk i think its too long #sorry 4 taking up the licorice tag🙏🔥#i have a kot of thoughts #hopefully this makes sense :p #whrraaaggh explodes

my for some reason unpopular opinion is that it's boring when Fitz remains unhinged levels of self-deluded and closeted actually. Why does he have to be doctor who's answer to dean winchester, huh? why would this man in his mid-thirties who has spent at least a decade traveling in time and space still have weird insane hangups about being attracted to dudes? why does that need to be the thing about the text that we all collectively think is worth taking at face value? it's boring and fucking depressing and honestly doesn't make sense when the future of humanity in doctor who is that bisexuality is the cultural default and completely unremarkable.

#like geez I don't think that making it to thirty+ years old and still being afraid and filled with self-hatred is funny actually #eighth doctor adventures #eighth doctor #fitz kreiner #megan whines into the empty abyss of cyberspace #it's also weird because this definitely wasn't the attitude in fandom ten years ago #my suspicion is that Steve Cole's confirmation that Fitz was always meant to be bi made people start taking the text literally #in a way folks didn't before when slash shipping culture was just used to reading against a text as a default #like I vaguely recall a post going around shortly after that was confirmed in 2019 #that brought up how Fitz being canonically bi meant that all his weird hangups couldn't be handwaved away now #because if fandom made him bi against canon then you could just ignore his weirder no homo moments #but if he was intentionally written as bi then he was also intentionally written as deeply closeted #and like. that's true. but also you can just do whatever the fuck you want with canon no matter what #and also like #sure many of the writers were writing him as queer intentionally #but like the writing in the EDAs is so inconsistent of course some people are going to write weird no homo crap #because those writers weren't comfortable with queerness even if Cole's intent was that Fitz was bi #like The Gallifrey Chronicles's whole thing with Fitz and Trix is one long lance parkin no homo moment #does that really matter more than textual evidence that he is attracted to men and knows this about himself?#like I just don't know how you reconcile 'Fitz will bend over backwards to pretend he's straight' with #'a consideration of his chances of [...] getting laid by the Doctor'#or for that matter 'with the Doctor it's the real thing'#or the really really heavy implication that he and Sasha had a one night stand in History 101 #or that he and George went on a date in Camera Obscura which led to Fitz being invited on the Siberia expedition in the first place #and again and I can't emphasize this enough: why is this the thing about 'canon' that is so worth keeping?#why is Fitz being depressing levels of in denial more fun than him being openly bi?#destielification of Eight/Fitz smh

anime resale stores here always have absolute mountains of love live figures from every iteration of the franchise with every character and costume you could imagine...except i've never been a figure girlie so i always just look over the shelf in awe because i can't really see myself buying anything. except, that is, for the early love live sunshine aqours figures with no legs. that, i would buy

#were these the first aqours figures ever?? they can't be right?#either way i remember just how early into lls this was #it's really burned into my memory i have no idea what they were made for though #i just always remember them. and their lack of legs #those shops always have the nice boxed up figures and then the ones that were brought to them without a box #left to sit forever in plastic bags on hooks on the store walls (until someone buys them)#some of those come in multiple pieces? like maybe stands or removable parts...?#but i always think it's gonna be one of these and i'm always so disappointed #cmon rashinban sell me one of the ugliest and most baffling love live figures of all time #personal #honestly it's not just figures i'm just really not much of a merch girlie #living in japan is slowly curing me of that though just because of how normalized it is for everyone to have character merch #i bought a really cute kanan keychain a while ago but then it fell off of my bag when i was out :( i still have no idea where i lost it #the normalization of it really helps though honestly #if you'd told me 2 years ago that i'd be buying little nitotan plushes of my fav characters to hold up to scenery while traveling and #take pictures of i definitely wouldn't have believed it #but that's just like a thing that anime girlies do here. i think it's really cute actually #i still haven't gotten around to actually bringing any of those plushes on trips because i forgot 3 times in a row #and then the next trip i took after that was with my family #nooooot a chance. oh my god there's no way i could've explained that and had them been like oh okay

some ppl that work in healthcare... really shouldn't work in healthcare.

(heavy heavy tw for medical situations & death/child death in tags, do not read if you're sensitive to it... I'll delete this later just had to vent)

#ceci speaks #nonsims #delete later #was just thinking about all the terrible things ive heard while being a hcw #from fellow hcw #and reporting it never helped because it was all shitheads all the way up #then i see more assholes going into that work and its like #really #ive experienced so much death since covid started and truth be told #it messed me up pretty badly and changed me as a person #im not the same person i was four years ago #and i wonder #would it affect you the way it affected me #would you change and grow some empathy if you had to see that many people suffer and die #even with some of them being terrible people it still hits you somehow #you think youre tough and youre hot shit when youre in school #and a couple years later youre not even blinking when youre trying to get blood out of a dead three month old #but when you go home you hyperfixate on the fact that it could be you or anyone you know at any time #i remember the christmas i watched three people code and die the same day #and the baby that already had rigor in their little feet bc theyd been dead in the crib way before they were even brought in #im not even a nurse im in lab for gods sake #but lab and rad dont escape this shit either #and i think if youre already a person with low empathy #the trauma must turn you into some of the people i worked with that just hated everyone they came into contact with #being cruel to patients or discriminating against them #why even go into that work if youre that kind of person #and i dont mean hcw have to be angels #its a difficult and grueling line of work that is underpaid and understaffed #but how hard is it to not be fucking evil #dont become a hcw if youre a discrimatory evil fucking piece of shit is what im saying

Never thought Chima would enter my realm of consciousness again, but here we are

neither did I, neither did I... but now we live in a world where, because of one idea the Hagemans randomly decided to throw in as a joke in season 5, a whole other show exists in the Ninjago canon and there's a scary possibility we'll see them again.

#I think itd be cool if they brought back the Scorpion or Spider or Bat tribes or members of them for some new villainous faction #would prolly not happen but a raine can hope can he not?#also i wonder if chi's been distributed to the other lands as well. god how did chima even fucking merge #bc at the end of the show they reveal that the land we're familiar with is just one floating land and theres such a huge and vast land #and theres so much more life and shit like what the fuck ...#WAIT CRAZY STUPID CRACK THEORY THAT PROBABLY WOULDNT WORK BUT WOULD BE REALLY REALLY CVOOOOL #OK OK OK SO SO SOOO #IMAGINE #IF #THE LAND WE SAW AT THE END OF THE CHIMA FINALE #ALLL THAT LAND #IS GONNA SHOW UP AGAIN #BUT ITS ACTUALLY THE MERGED REALMS #WOULDNT THAT BE BIZARRE?#LIKE THEY RE-PURPOISE THE GIANT VAST LANS BENEATH CHIMA AS THE MERGED REALMS #TAKING ONE IDEA FROM YEARS AGO AND VASTLY REPURPOSING IT #ninjago #asks #raine's rambles #twistedmashup

Me and my wife at the end of episode four- Sobbing over horny murder demons cuz HOLY FUCK ANGEL BABY NO

#hazbin hotel #okay but actually this is good #i did like the pilot a LOT #but I am really really liking what the show is giving us #i love that we learn more about WHY Charlie wants to help sinners so much #i love love LOVE that we learned more about Husk #I love that we saw all of that about Alastor #I am SO CURIOUS about what happened seven years ago because THAT number got brought up twice #the fucking music is all good Poison is fucking #oh i love it #episode four IS hard like its rough but like #i don't think any of us were expecting anything else from Angel's story #and they did warn and bump up that age rating so like I knew what I was getting into #also HHHH ANGEL'S REAL NAME #and I think we also hear his real VOICE???#none of the act he puts on just him and that broke my fucking HEART

I don't know if it's rude to ask, so apologies in advance if I sound mean, but… how come you repeatedly bring up old posts of yours from three or more years ago? Do you remember each original post you make and intentionally bring them back? Like, I don't think there's anything wrong, your blog can be whatever you want, obviously, and your stuff is always funny or curious in some way, just… I'm kind of lost as of how it came to be, I guess? I don't think I remember my own posts after 6 months, much least if I have to go back to 2020!

ahaha no it's usually just because i'm going back through a tag looking for something else! i recently went back through my entire "my posts" tag (which contains...1468 posts, dear lord) and while i was doing that saw several posts that i felt like reblogging for whatever reason. so it's usually not that i remember them and go looking for them on purpose, it's that i come across them incidentally in the course of doing something else.

if you want to know why i reblog them after coming across them, 1) usually i don't! you are seeing the tip of the iceberg lol, and 2) it's mostly because it's hard to resist the "sooo true, bestie" urge, even when the bestie is just...yourself.

#sometimes...things that are written by me...are things i agree with #but oftentimes they are not once a few years have passed lol. i mean i just looked at 1468 posts by yours truly #and queued probably 1% of them #oh i also went through my asks tag which was another 500 or so posts #if you want to know why i'm putting myself through this it's for a really ridiculous reason #namely: several nights ago i had insomnia brought on by (get this) being too excited to sleep because my brain wouldn't stop #coming up with crosslinguistic french/english puns #and a couple of them in particular i was like oh god this would be a great tumblr username!#however as i've said before i had no plans to ever change my username (even though i don't like it)#because doing so would break any links that contain my current username #i had resigned myself to just living with this username forever. but once i thought of some usernames i actually like #it became harder to resist the urge to change it...#so now i have this convoluted plan to try to identify and tag as many of the links as i can #so that after i switch names i can go back and fix the links #however i'm not sure how feasible this is. there are a lot of links #and no matter what i do short of going through all 45k posts on this blog i will be bound to miss some of them anyway #(i think getting a domain would solve this problem but i don't wanna get a domain bc i'd have to give wordpress my legal name)#indecisive superhero meme w the buttons 'the need to have punny username' vs. 'the need to be able to find things on my blog'#asks #anon #actually anon probably the majority of the time i rb something i wrote 3 years ago it's bc i forgot about it #i come across it and am like oh yeah! this! and it's like a brand new discovery so i put it back on the dash lol #anyway thanks for your ask! i got a kick out of it 😂

Hey shout out to the person that just commented on a fic I‘ve hated saying that they really like it and they hope I continue it. That person just made my fucking day. That fic kept getting negative comments (Who the hell writes that they aren’t interested in a fic UNDER IT and give reasons?) which made me really ashamed of it until that person commented.

Anyways moral of the story: fic comments mean a lot even if you don’t think so

#talks with buzzsaw #That mean comment was over a year ago but I’m still pissed at it #They gave two reasons and one of them was just saying it was an overused plot like wtf???#I spent the entire first chapter talking about how miserable life is for them and you get mad that it’s about separating them?#Like I get my characterization was off. I’ll take that. Yuya is hard to write post canon with. But maybe don’t bring it up after the first #time that you commented it. Maybe you’re the one overusing stuff because he wasn’t even selfish in the chapter you brought it up #Those two comments made me think my writing and characterization was bad for months (which is more of a me problem)#So for somebody to say that is was actually good and not bad or cliché #:) :) :) :) :) :) :)#Happy!!!!!!

It's always fun to take a character and slap them into multiple different scenarios. Like. I have... multiple versions of my CURIEs.

I have my base post-game CURIE, I have my Bad-end Apocalypse- who is actually split into two. Canon, which is the one I talk a bit about on my art acct, and the Zeta bad-end which I RP All The Time in DeltaHub. Then there's ALSO a MHWorld version, but at that point it's more OC than anything. Urayne exists as a Palico, but he probably needs a different name.

#mav rambles #au rambles #I have had brainrot for DH Apoc since I brought her in and oh my GOD #She had been through so much shit. Also straight up ditched kellyn's ass but i think thats rightfully deserved.#Apoc also deciding to split Lucille from herself like a year ago was still her best decision in her eyes.#She's been on a wild ride for the last... almost 2 years lolll

not to evangelise classical music but I need to hear your opinions on Rhapsody in Blue (as long as those opinions are positive)

sorry for the late reply, thanks for reminding me of this one i had a listen through and it's great fun!!!

#my main association with rhapsody in blue is that in grade 11 maybe so like 6 years ago (jesus) me and georgia were publically arguing on #tumblr about whether mozart or gershwin was sexier and she brought up rhapsody in blue. WHO REMEMBERS #asks #ibraesil #george gershwin #<- that tag will bring up the post i was thinking of lol #music
