#I really invested in this

[catmask]

the 'all marriage is gay as far as im concerned' except its me watching a man and woman character in a show i like and accidentally saying 'theyre so gay' because i literally forget thats not the word for romance because to me all romance is gay

#normally i find the way m/f pairings are written to be really frustrating #not because its like 'i hate straight people' or whatever i literally just want them to actually like each other and communicate #or have an interesting enough dynamic i can stay invested #also i am bisexual and m/f pairings can be nice. but liek they actually have to Be Nice and like eachother or be funny at the very least #txt #scratchpost

[foundfamilywhump]

being aromantic and into whump is like. shoutout to whump for being a great opportunity to engage with stories about intimacy and vulnerability and powerful emotion and physical interactions with other people and intense relationships that are not presumptively based in romance. what would i do without you.

#gav gab #what WOULD i do tbh #i was cursed to be someone who is profoundly romance repulsed and also REALLY invested in narratives #about emotional and physical intimacy and character relationship and vulnerability and relying on one another #and thus: whump my beloved #one of the major draws for me hands down

☀️N O T E S☀️

Thank you to the lovely and incredibly talented @thedreamlessnights for tagging me! If you are as obsessed with Viktor as we are, please head on to their blog from that good, good Viktor sustenance❣️💕

You do NOT need to add your thoughts about the songs like I have! I just had time in my hands and thought it would be fun! 😆

🌙S O N G S🌙

1. “Sensitive” by MOTHICA

Holy shit this song is so good, if you like alternative rock with a synth-pop overtone, please give it a listen. Absolutely nasty electric guitar motifs in it! Not to mention MOTHICA’s voice is so buttery and delicious 😩

2. “Go for It” by Djo

Joe Kerry has made his way into my heart with his 80’s synth pop swagger ways!!

His new album DECIDE truly is such a work of honest and artistic goodness and has been on repeat for me these days! This song is a good one form the album but admittedly not one of my faves! Can’t wait to get my hands on the vinyl of this incredible album!

3. “I Wish” by Hayley Kiyoko

Oh our lesbian queen Miss Kiyoko 🥰 This song used to get me sooo deep in my gay feels when I first really came to terms with my identity. It is so gentle, so soft, and so bittersweetly honest about the feelings of loneliness that often tags along the existence of being queer 💕

4. “Shukumei” by Official HIGE DANdism

Oh this song is anthemic as FUCK❣️ HIGE always manages to get me imagining myself as the protagonist in the fluffy ending OP of a dark-ass anime sksksks

But seriously, the brass instruments 🎺 + modern synth and mixing 🤖 + Satoshi Fujihara’s light tone & scratchy timber 🎶 = lighthearted, hope-inducing goodness!

5. “Baby” by Relient K

Oh god, the “epilogue” song to the song “Savannah,” is truly a work of art. As a stand-alone song it is brilliant. Alongside its sister song, it truly feels like the beginning of a love that lasts forever. Together they paint a picture of affection and devotion so thankful and honest. It get emotional every time I heart it!

6. “If Only My Heart Could Speak” by Cody Fry

I’m a bit in love with romantic music that make me feel like I’m in a dance sequence in an animated / Disney movie with an orchestra accompaniment!

Cody Fry is soooo brilliant at making backtracks for the movies in my head! The swell, the tenderness, the romance of it all! Ahh!! 💕

7. “A-Yo” by SHINee

Oh my god 🥺 My babies SHINee (all of whom are older than me sksksk). Lucifer is such an iconic KPOP album and one that I feel was part of the greater shift KPOP had in the early 2010s. “A-Yo” is so lightly anthemic and is written and mixed with with hip-hop and R&B influences. So sweet, so nostalgic, and so fresh!! ✨

8. “I Hope of You Think of Me” by Lily Williams

Oh my god this song has been in repeat like no one’s business. The sweetest and softest friends-to-lovers song of the century that I use as the background song to my Steve x Y/N and Eddie x Y/N daydreams 🥰

Lily’s voice is the voice of God’s favorite angel, and twinkle of the brightest star. She is so lovely and so is this song 💕

9. “Just the Girl” by The Click Five

This one is a classic of early 2000’s-boy-band-with-a-guy-pining-so-fucking-hard-over-a-girl-way-out-of-his-league sksksksk

This song was popular for the generation before me but god, I’ve loved it with them since FOREVER. Early 2000’s pop rock is sooooo fun and so nostalgic and so recognizable. One of my all time favorites!!

It also makes for a great gay anthem if sung by a girl 🏳️‍🌈❣️💕🥰✨

10. “Split” by NIKI

This song is sultry and melancholic and has an old Hollywood / winter / holiday vibe! Definitely for the days I need to wallow in a mood 🖤

As an Indonesian person, seeing NIKI come into the international limelight has given me so much pride! 🇮🇩💕 She is such a talented individual with so many fuckin’ pop bops!! Please support your POC artists!!

🎶 T A G S 🎶

I tag @kentoswifey • @faeology • @gh0ullie • @playfulcl0ud • and anyone else who would like to do it!

#I really invested in this #honestly worth it bc it was so fun to reminisce on these songs #wrote my thoughts as I listened to them #a wonderful and lovely way to spend a bit of my Friday evening #🥰💕 #about matahari ☀️

[sunburstsandmoonshadows]

it remains extremely funny to me that freddie wong accidentally (?) made Dan Fucks, embodiment of pleasure, so distinctly ace-coded. like, Dan talks a big game about sex and seems to view it as interesting and desirable, but when presented with such an obvious in for it he completely ignored Avaricci's come-ons to just talk about non-sexual pleasures like goddamn cold pillows. he's not paying attention to sex at all when it's not personally convenient or expected of him to do so.

100% Elias is ace and just doesn't realize people genuinely crave sex and it's not a metaphor or exaggeration like it is for him yet. bless him.

#mentopolis #and thats that from a local ace #i say ''accidentally'' since ofc i dont know freddie's thought process #most likely he was just trying to avoid getting too outright crude on the show #or thought going on about pillows and haircuts would be the funnier option than playing the horniness straight #but in-universe it paints him as only vaguely invested in actually achieving the goal of having sex #which means elias doesnt really care that much about sex #outside of cultural pressure to have it and its status as an easy in-road to physical contact #which he does desperately crave #plus its known that ace people are the most willing to make a joke out of sex lmao

making things right...

(this happens a ways into the story after both eon and sylveon have developed more as people btw)

after things boil over in a one sided argument w sylveon(sylveon figuratively ripping eons head off)("youre a geriatric eevee who clings onto his everstone like a security blanket! you dont understand evolution as much as you think you do!") eon eventually goes downstairs to apologize...

hes wanted to make things right w sylveon for years now but...he could never make himself go down there long enough in the basement where...his own father....

and idt eon could really...conceive of how he needed to. just be there for sylveon instead of what. lying? telling it they didnt mean what he said way back then? say that he didnt care? that he didnt actually love them and to forget about that? just go down to the basement where his own father did all these horrible things said all these horrible things just to add his own...maybe thats another reason he couldnt do it.

but. he finally does go down there to apologize. and i think sylveon also wants to better their relationship by this point too...they just dont know how...so they talk until(see above picture)...

idt eon intended to evolve when he went down there. he probably didnt even think it was a possibility tbh. but he did think about what sylveon said and purposefully left without his everstone...which sylveon didnt realize until...

sylveon like most of their siblings didnt think their dad would ever willingly evolve...much less...for them...

+bonus :]

Relief...

You are light...

I'm at the chimera ant arc and every episode my heart crushes a bit more tightly. I suspect it will soon explode.

I really want to do more fanart, hope I will find the time (I wanna draw Kurapika sm). I actually have several complete HxH animatics in my head that I cannot do, it's frustrating af (literally the only free time I have I spend it watching this shit, i'm doomed).

Anyway this anime has occupied my entire brain lately. Or maybe 80%, the 20 other being a random book I'm reading (that I will soon do fanart of hopefully).

#hunter x hunter #hxh #killua zoldyck #gon freecss #killugon #you are light #man these scenes in watercolor where killua rambles about gon being his reason for living #this shit manages to make me laugh and then bam the most tragical thing happens #they made me CRY jesus fuck #i really am invested in this #everything #from every characters to each storyline #immaculate truly

[bigboobshaunt]

I know it's largely a waste of time because the people I've seen peddling this idea don't really care and are just doing it to add pointless discourse, but I am bored at work so at least I'm getting paid!

The idea that, although Kabru cares about Laios, Laios doesn't care about Kabru is wrong, even before he becomes his royal advisor and the new interactions they got post-canon, and insisting otherwise shows a lack of understanding of the dynamic.

I think it's clear to everyone that the confession scene mattered to Kabru, so the camp pushing this lately isn't even arguing that, but I don't think they're thinking from Laios' side.

The entire scene is meant to be a parallel to Laios and Shuro's fight way earlier in the manga. Laios hasn't known Kabru for nearly as long, but he was still someone who was ultimately lying to him (a façade in Kabru's case, wrapped up in his own trauma) and someone that Laios built up an ideal version of in his head... so why is his reaction to Kabru coming clean so starkly different? Simply put, it's his character development.

Instead of angry and betrayed, he doesn't even initially believe anyone would go through the trouble of braving the Dungeon to be his friend. Such a ridiculous idea!

But Kabru IS sincere. He is sincere in his desire to get to truly know Laios. He has his own wrong ideas about what makes Laios tick, but differently from many, many people in his life (especially with his childhood and his complex feelings towards his village and his parents who ostracized him and Falin) Kabru is willing to make an effort to understand him. That's huge.

#Laios Touden #Kabru #Dungeon Meshi #I've been ruminating on this post since I saw that shit start popping up and it made my eyelids twitch #anyways he immediately asked Kabru out on a restaurant date after that #no really. that happened in canon in case you don't remember #Labru #it works platonically too! you don't have to be invested in them romantically #but denying the bond is just... dumb

As pure as snow❄️✨

The chilumi drought ending in fontaine is really funny to me but I’ve been loving the feast! This is my first genshin ship with my first 5 star so the love i have for them is vast🥰

The fact we learn what happens to people who loose their vision and Childe just gives it to Lumine just like that?? The level of trust and the promise to see each other again is just🥹💙

Shirtless Disaster Pt. 1

So. pretty sure the emperor cusses. just. never had the reason to say out loud. or has a filter on when they talk. Until Greygold happened. You ever try and look with the emperor's perspective when Tav makes decisions and go, 'H-how are you not ceaselessly cussing like a sailor at Tav?'

ANYWAY- HERE'S THE THING. TRULY. Always had my squinty-eyed caution on Emps. Trying to ascertain if they were for real with their words/actions/intentions or not. but. Squid buddy sharing their feelings of caring was the uh snowball that started this avalanche. Can't fake feelings huah, GREYGOLD FINALLY FOUND THOSE MUSHY BITS HUAH.

I ain't gonna let y'all wonder what Greygold's answer was, so uh. Bonus!

#Update: getting invested in s/kk isn't working if I don't get new ss/kk content now I will explode 😔 Which isn't optimal #The thing is I don't even think we're going to see them soon because a change of pov isn't really on sight. #Not when the action in all other circumstances is over.

Whenever people who are entrenched in diet culture talk about how terrible chemicals are, I just want to whip out this:

#diet culture #diet culture tw #described images #image description in alt #'it's got CHEMICALS in it' and so do you! and me too! IT'S ALL CHEMICALS ALL THE WAY DOWN #instead of running from this world we must learn to embrace it #i'm not particularly angry at people who say this because it makes me think that they're incredibly invested in diet culture... #...i just don't want the whole 'food = bad' or 'bodies = bad' to go unchallenged... #...part of the reason why diet culture seems just as prevalent now (if not moreso) is partially because it isn't really... #...challenged or questioned without provocation. it's just assumed to be correct because it makes you 'feel in control' #when chemicals are bad you can control what chemicals you consume. it's individualistic and places the blame onto you for 'being good' #it places responsibility onto the person in such a way that it becomes impossible to fulfill #it isn't that i'm upset that people want to treat their bodies in a way they think is responsible... #...moreso that the *way* they go about it ensures that they're stuck in a cycle of self-blame and even self-hatred #because the METHOD is ineffective. not the desire to treat your body well #also the state of ohio looks stupid and i do Not respect it #it looks like a ball that is simultaneously deflated and over-inflated #also their state flag looks silly to me #it looks like the person who was making it fell asleep making it #i'm just clowning on ohio at this point. have never been to ohio but. are you guys okay
