#I don't cringe

[starpros-sunshine]

When others enjoy things in an overly emotional and enthusiastic way I find it tacky and rebarbative. When I do the exact same thing though it's different. Then it's appropriate and justified. Obviously.

#mind you I am not ralking about the concept of cringe #I don't cringe #i just think it a bit silly #but to eaxh their own whatever makes people happy I suppose #as long as it doesn't harm anyone I don't care #but you have to admit sometimes it's really very silly #honey no you have not got it. you haven't even placed the order yet. #when I do it it's fine though #completely fine #the funny thing about this is that i really hate hypocrisy #see there's a fine line between self loathing and pushing an ego the size of the universe and I walk it perfectly #so perfectly in fact that they balance each other out #I don't hate myself I think I'm too good for that but I also don't like myself because lets be real. I'm really not It. #so what I end up with is a healthy dose of self criticism and a differential worldview #because who am I to judge #god I am so good at this being normal thing I really really am #delete later #I'm not awake enough to keep up the usual attitude of youthful cheeriness and charming idiocy you'll get your regular clownguy back by #well tomorrow probably #if the humiliation of self exposure allows me to make the return ans not just lynch this blog immediately #we'll see #not that it matters anyways

“I hate the script, the vault dwellers sound so cheesy—“ my Brother in Steel you realize that’s the point, right? They were bred to act like the physical embodiment of an HR e-mail. Did you not catch the memo that Vault-Tec put out regarding their experiment facilities?

#fallout #fallout tv show #fallout tv series #they were raised to respect the Golden Rule they’re a bunch of fucking kindergartners #theyre MEANT TO BE CRINGE #plus if you keep watching you’ll SEE WHY THEY DO THAT #don’t quit in the first episode when you have so many more to explore wtf is wrong with them!!! it’s a good show!!! #sometimes I think people like to hate things just to hate them and I understand. truly. i am a certified hater too #but don't dog something that has reasoning!! you're meant to cringe! and you'll see why!!! #GIVE IT TIME IT WILL MAKE SENSE I PROMISE #fallout spoilers

'recovering' or 'healing' by starting to hate your former self + shame or mock others for being the way you used to be isn't actually very healing. you can acknowledge + be grateful that you have changed without transferring all your self hatred/shame onto others.

#i see so many ppl like omg i was so cringe with my b/w depression blog + my angsty posts + attention seeking #like no you were just. sad. that's how you were sad then. it's not how you are sad now. #you should have empathy for ppl like that but you don't because you still hate yourself #and you can't stand to see yourself in others because you haven't. actually done much healing lol

I'm reading the lord of the rings and I'm once again amazed at how... good most characters are. Like, they are genuinely good people. They are a bunch of kindhearted, gracious, caring people, coming together under adverse circumstances and trying to figure things out and find a solution and support each other through it all. Like Frodo and Sam meet Faramir and Faramir is a bit suspicious at first and kind of implies Frodo may be a spy, and then when he hears his story and he's like Frodo, I pressed you so hard at first. Forgive me! It was unwise in such an hour and place. And this blows.my.mind. He wasn't even particularly mean or threatening to him in the beginning, he's just such a kind, considerate man, recognizing the kindness and honesty of another man. And they're all like that. Even Gollum starts slowly changing (for a short while) when he encounters Frodo because that's the thing about kindness and humility and grace, they are contagious. They transform people, even a creature like Gollum cannot be immune to that. Like, you may consider all this simple and basic and I get it but, hear me out. It is quite rare to see that in modern media and it is also pretty difficult to pull off in a way that is not corny and simplistic. It is mind blowing that you actually don't have to present the entire palette of human cruelty and vice in order to tell a compelling story, contrary to popular belief. Lotr does the exact opposite, and it is just beautiful and it warms my heart. Especially taking into consideration tolkien's pretty grim growing-up experience, him being a double orphan without a home, raised between an orphanage and a priest and having no family apart from his brother and then the war and then he almost dies and then he's poor as hell and then a second war and it all makes sense somehow. He writes to his wife who is also an orphan two days before the marriage "the next few years will bring us joy and content and love and sweetness such as could not be if we hadn't first been two homeless children and had found one another after long waiting" and, yes, yes! The love and sweetness just radiate from his work, the entire lotr series is a little radiant bubble of hope and love and grace that he imagined in his head to deal with a dismal reality and then he just gave that to the world, and isn't that what imagination and art is all about after all?

#i literally wrote this because faramir said 'forgive me' #like that was the inspiration here #terminal brain damage don't mind me #BUT #i have a point #i do! #i am cringe but i am free #i love these books so much #i love this man so much #lotr #the two towers #frodo baggins #faramir #gollum #the lord of the rings #aspa rambles #tolkien #aspa reads tolkien

when your waterdhavian crush ambushes you with extremely cheesy flirting and to your deep horror, it works

if you respond equally cheesily — "Read it? I could've written the thing 😏😏😏" — he hits you with this:

i'm afraid there was simply no one else for me after that

#i cringed through the entire interaction and it was a delight. wouldn't change a thing #don't let this comic fool you tav is just as bad #terminal levels of earnest swaglessness in this galemance run. love that for them. sorry for the rest of the party #sky does bg3 #gale of waterdeep #gale dekarios #mayhew #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #galehew

and angel was so proud of himself for being able to carry mr-hollow-bones husk over here

based on the hc where husk died from falling, and that's why his demon form is an ironic mix between two animals that should not be taking fall damage

so yeah he's afraid of heights and that's why he doesn't fly

aftermath:

they'll be okay

#hazbin hotel #angel dust #husk #angelhusk #huskerdust #angel dusk you're too tall look at that you scared the kitty #i posted this to my new twitter account since when i checked this morning i was finally unshadowbanned #BUT THEN WHEN I CHECKED AGAIN AFTER I POSTED I WAS REBANNED?? #i'm gonna punch muskrat in the face #i was kinda embarrassed to post this with how heavily headcanon this is but uh.. #fuck cringe #i'm proud of this #also you know in episode 3 where vaggie is throwing the gang into the trenches and husk runs away? #i don't think that was just bc vaggie scared him #i think he was genuinely terrified of being thrown off a high place again #sun art

No matter how weird the questions are that Neil Gaiman gets (or for the matter we see because he answered them), I would like to remind everyone, that having around 80.000 asks in your inbox gives you a lot to choose from.

Meaning, that Neil Gaiman probably actively chooses from these 80.000 questions what he answers.

So for the love of god, stop bullying the people asking "cringe" questions. They probably didn't expect to get an answer anyways, and Neil chose to answer them.

#good omens #the sandman #← tagging these because they're the most frequent 'cringe question' source #neil gaiman #just think of the weird bot questions you get and decide not to answer #it's not like he's obliged to answer those questions #this is just a theory tho maybe he keeps answering them because they're the first and he kinda made a system #I'm by all means not all knowing #just a hypothesis #maybe you know or think that too but I saw enough notes and tags that say that at least a small group does the same #and if you don't like a question you don't have to react to it ffs

the catholic rejection of it all

#one piece #op #trafalgar law #monkey d. luffy #gear 5 luffy #song is big god by florence and the machine #religious symbology? in my shounen anime protagonist? it's more likely than you think #im 24 years old it's the end of 2023 it's MY turn to finally make a cringe amv for christmas #to be clear. i dont think law sees luffy as his god. but i definitely think he's helped law regain some faith #i.e. catholicism (yeah hardy-hah one piece character is an ex-catholic its all very silly but let's take it unironically for a second) #it would've drilled into law as a child to believe in one true cause (that cause being god). and that will supposedly carry him through lif #give hope purpose etc. but a lot of former catholics choose instead to find that in something else. in law’s cause: #the freedom and hope corasan gave him #the freedom that luffy brings. the will of D. the goodness in the people around him #it's a transfer of faith that feels real and tangible #it's a neat concept and I don't see it talked about much #CJ's op watch-through #corasan #donquixote rosinante #sun god nika #CJ's edits #op analysis #amv
