BELOVED WHAT YOU MEAN ONE OF THEM IS DATING A GUY

@benkaaoi I am assuming you are talking about my tags on the MaxTul post I reblogged recently.

I discovered it a while back thanks to this post by @lurkingshan

In the post she links to this instagram post

Were Mew Suppasit confirms that he is dating Tul.

#ask #benkaaoi #trilled to be the one to inform you of this #i am still baffled

My physically disabled sister (who has never walked and uses a motorised wheelchair and who also requires a 24/7 ventilator to breathe) was talking to my able bodied aunt about disability the other day.

She was explaining to my aunt that she dislikes when able-bodied people refer to disabled people as inspirational or heroic just for going about their daily lives. My aunt’s response?

My aunt…I kid you not…looked my sister dead in the eye and told her that she should put herself in able-bodied people’s shoes and understand where they are coming from when they say things like disabled people are inspirations. She literally said that. To my disabled sister….

I just wanted to share that the folks at Walmart curbside pickup thought organic garlic was an acceptable replacement for a red onion. Not a yellow onion or perhaps a small bag of onions instead of individually sold ones, no. A whole bulb of garlic.

#I am still baffled #I had to go back because they didn’t put they made a replacement #they just DID IT #so I went back like uh I don’t approve of this replacement I need my onion #and the lady at customer service laughed pretty good then told me to go pick out an onion then leave with it LAMO #lmao not lamo #I got escorted out with my onion since she couldn’t figure out how to make the computer say I had the onion ‘exchanged’ or whatever

Zephrah actively postpones ruidusborn births. It is believed that the actual number of ruidusborn in exandrian history is much larger than has been officially recorded because the stigma of it was so intense that people lied about it. Alyxian, one of the few recorded ruidusborn heroes of the calamity who received direct blessings from three different prime deities (our very own Changebringer, the Archheart, and the Moonweaver) , has been all but forgotten (read: likely erased) by history.

The Archive of knowledge that revealed the truth of Predathos and Ruidus was never some forgotten thing—it was intentionally hidden by the elites in Vasselheim. And we have no idea how long they have been operating with that knowledge. We have no idea what they have been doing with that knowledge, what silent wars have been waging for years or decades or centuries. But we saw what they were willing to do, in Hearthdell. We saw the violence and suppression they were willing to commit. We saw the pettiness of the exandrian pantheon in the Dawnfather’s response to Deanna’s: “Are you worth saving?”. In the Changebringer’s manipulative change of course in her pleas to FCG. In the Wildmother’s rejection of Opal. In the knowledge we have that Imogen spent so much of her miserable time in Gelvaan begging the gods to aid her to no avail—just for Kord to reach out only to demand that she not let them down.

Liliana’s point that Vasselheim and the other faithful elite of the world will hunt ruidusborn down to negate even the potential of this happening again isn’t new, it isn’t something this solstice and the machinations surrounding it caused, and it isn’t some unsubstantiated, fearful claim—it has been happening.

The vanguard—and Liliana—are unequivocally wrong in their means. But can you really fault them in their desire? Can you really fault the conclusions they have drawn from the experiences they have lived? If you spend your entire life being rejected by the people and the pantheon of your world for means you could not possibly control, would you not seek out someone and somewhere that would accept you? And if you found it, if some being that has been connected with you your whole life welcomed you home and wrapped you in an embrace that felt like your mother’s and says that it is starving; well, aren’t you, too?

There is likely a holy war brewing. At the end of it all, is it truly the sole fault of the people and not the organizations and society that expelled them?

#critical role #liliana temult #cr spoilers #bells hells #critical role meta #i understand that tumblr isn’t the place for god or vanguard nuance but I wanted to extend my thoughts here For Posterity #it just baffles me that some people still think Ludinus doesn’t very clearly have motivations of his own #and that the vanguard and liliana and very likely even the weave mind are all pawns in a greater scheme #which just kind of renders all the attempts to claim that empathizing with the vanguard means agreeing with Ludinus completely moot #and also just. doesn’t allow room for far more interesting questions about exandrian society and faith #and to be more clear. CLEARLY there are bad people in the vangaurd i am not saying they are good please be normal #in general i think people get really caught up in certain characters’ perspectives and not the wider ones we as the audience have #which. to me. is a loss. these are interesting and extremely relevant and poignant questions to ask

[rhaenyradelights]

love that saying “rhaenyra is equally obsessed with alicent and equally as damaged by their parting” gets you jumped by….. people who love rhaenicent? bc alicent only gets to be the suicidal slay lesbian if rhaenyra is the heartbreaker that doesn’t care i guess cjdjdjdjxjxjsajdjddj like guys the red string of fate choked the shit out of them both and continues to choke them 😭

#the dragon leaving the princess in the tower sure but like. that was her princess. she wanted them to leave together. everything that #happens is still filtered through her #i am not wading into this we are not doing any of this this year but the takes i have been seeing on twitter are baffling #text

Just read some comments on an article saying Gideon and Harrow have a sister like relationship in Gideon the Ninth. Bro what are you talking about? “I am undone with you” I also would say that to my sister (no I wouldn’t)

#griddlehark #it’s the lesbian necromancers in space book #you can’t tell me that their relationship is sisterly #I’m baffled #tlt #the locked tomb #gideon the ninth #harrow the ninth #I mean I didn’t ship them at the start #but by the end of GtN I was obsessed and still am

So of the various things Bhaal is served by, for reasons that escape me, which fall under the label "various tentacled monsters" (which are all aberrations, by the look of it)

We have, confirmed: gigantic carnivorous amphibians, the size of a cow at smallest, with leathery black skin covered in mucus which appears to be a mass of 50 tentacles of up to 20' in length covered in eyes. They're intelligent, Chaotic Evil, and vengeful. They can hypnotise people, as the charm spell, and generate force fields. [Darktentacles]

And what looks like a floating brain with barbed 5-8' tentacles that inject paralytic venom, and it has a beak. It eats people. Bhaal favours the ones that are exceptionally intelligent, ruthless, malicious and aggressive. And they're also wizards! [Philosopher Grell]

...I guess the illithid invasion and Bhaal encouraging you to chug tadpoles via Sceleritas makes more sense than I thought...

There is absolutely nothing I've ever seen to suggest that Bhaal has any inherent connection to aberrations or tentacled horrors, so I guess he just thinks they're neat or something??

#(wHere is my pet aboleth father?) #Bhaal encourages ceremorphosis I guess: you become a tentacled horror that eats people and he's never been prouder #I bring you only the most accursed of knowledge #And am still baffled #how are aberrations linked to Bhaal #how is this on theme?? #the idiot three #edgelord hours

im still baffled by the general response to ep 8 btw. sure the dialogue got a little cheesy at times, but the dialogue in this show is always like 15% cheesy? that’s why people like it lol.

i thought ep 8 was really good, plotlines were moving, drama was happening, characters and relationships were being tested. juno temple acted her ass off. i wish the whole season had been like this!

i really don’t understand why everyone disliked this ep so much. am i missing something? am i just looking for something different out of this show than everyone else is? i agree that the season as a whole has been… scattered, but i thought this past ep was really good.

am i missing something?

#i also feel so bad for keeley hazell #it seems like this ep was probably somewhat based on personal experience for her #considering keeley is based on her #and i really felt that genuine voice come through in the plotline and dialogue! #for the keeley parts anyway #but people are being brutal towards her specifically #i just. i’m baffled #sure the locker room scene was maybe a little preachy but like. literally this whole show’s premise is ted #standing at the front of a room and telling everyone to be nice #like i thought that was part of what we were signing up for lol #anyway. even with minor issues like that i still don’t understand how it could deserve a 6.6 on imdb????? #that’s lower than signs! i hated signs! #well not hated but yk #i certainly liked it less than this one lol #idk man. im just so baffled. like am i the wrong one here? am i missing something? #ted lasso spoilers

“Claude in Hopes is exactly the same way he is in Houses! He’s always been like that and has the same feelings/morals!”

Claude in GW/Hopes:

Claude, literally, in Houses:

Let that speak for the fact that Claude was written with a 180 characterization in Hopes.

Claude wants peace and to bring everyone together; not to tear them further apart. That is his character.

#I’m still in the middle of answering this ask I got but yeah #even Edelgard noticed Claude really loves bringing ppl together in WC #when she says ''you really value that sort of thing don't you'' after the Eagle/Lion (+Deer >.> ) battle #like if Claude's goal was to destroy Fodlan and just leave a mess of it A+++ you did an astounding show stopping brilliantly done job #if your goal was peace well you fucked that up pretty good buddy #in Hopes too like he's literally arguing with Lorenz about it while Lorenz is like ??? bruh wtf ??? #literally who cares what some politicians did 300 years ago certainly not Houses Claude #in fact Claude said fuck our history sideways with a cactus let's make peace and be friends #AND he got the approval from the whole roundtable and that's all we know on the topic bc it's all we needed to know #versus in GW where it's explicitly stated that it took some doing for them to allow Claude to be king #meaning the roundtable was not up for what he was suggesting and needed to be convinced #they needed it enough that Lorenz pointed it out to everyone and from a narrative standpoint #AM Claude doesn't need to say how the meeting went and all we need to know is that it worked out #but in GW it's told to us that the meeting was very long and it took some doing for them to trust Claude's judgment #the meeting is presented in a more uncertain light with how the lords felt abt it whereas in AM #it's not told to us how things went bc it's not important. a negative aspect (i.e. the roundtable not being able to come to an agreement) #is an important thing to note and if there was any negative aspect of it in AM they would've put it in there #meaning the roundtable trusts AM Claude's judgment enough when he tells them he wants to put their two nations together again #idk how else to explain that so I hope you get what I mean lol #I just find it completely baffling that people actually say both Claudes are the same person and that he was always like how he is in Hopes #like you can like his character in Hopes and enjoy that portrayal of him but at least admit he's written differently you know? #I hate when I see people say that Claude fans didn't understand his character in Houses at all bc they don't like him in Hopes #when you have literal staunch polar opposite sentences coming out of his mouth in these two scenes #the Claude we get in AM is the same Claude - the same person at his core - as he is in VW and all the routes #Houses Claude does not blame whatever the fuck Leicester and Faerghus did 300 years ago on the people living in their present #he also doesn't blame Dimitri or anyone else presently in power for Daphnel #GW Claude there is just grasping at unimportant and insignificant straws to justify his invasion #pretty sure AM Claude would be like ''hey dimi lemme borrow failnaught back real quick'' and smack GW Claude with it #then kindly hand it back to Dimi and smile and wave
