The Legacy of Knocking and Kicking: The Little-known Traditional African-American Martial Art

Kicking and Knocking, a little-known traditional African-American martial art, has a rich history deeply rooted in both physical combat and cultural expression. Practiced clandestinely in parts of the Southern US and on the Sea Islands, this unique martial art integrates acrobatic movements and musical accompaniment, making it inseparable from dance. Its origins can be traced back to Central…

If some other magicless person got stuck in Twisted Wonderland and tried to take my place, I'd simply let them. Yeah, bitch, now you take care of these motherfuckers and deal with Crowley's bullshit, see if I fuckin care. Have fun babysitting a bunch of sunovabitches who barely even remember you exist half the time.

I love the angst of "they pushed the Prefect away and replaced them only to miss them when they finally leave", but, also, if I were Yuu, I'd absolutely just let it happen. Call me a pushover, but I ain't shedding a tear for friends who left for the newest shiny thing. And it would relieve me from all the trouble. Guess who's not fighting Overblots anymore? This bastard, that's who.

#twisted wonderland #I'm not salty however yes I am #I'd not fight for people willing to replace me just like that #«but you'd be lonely» being accompanied by fake assholes is 10x lonelier #though that gives me an idea #how fun would it be if NRC started trying to replace Yuu and instead of going to RSA‚ Yuu goes to FUCKIN ROLLO #just knocks on NBC and «heeeeey» and Rollo is foaming at the mouth because «they kicked out a MAGICLESS PERSON??» #Rollo: You called me a monster when I lighted that fire‚ but can you call yourselves *men* after abandoning the Prefect #Bells of Notre Dame but instead it's Yuu running to NBC and Rollo taking her in #wait that also means I could make the others get obsessed with bringing Yuu back #so they'd have Hellfire. meanwhile‚ Rollo has a repentance arc through his relationship with Yuu‚ Heaven's Light #... I'm rambling #devaneios de bellee

something thats been in my head for a long time abt vulnerability and comfort and echoes of the past

#shadow the hedgehog #rouge the bat #team dark #shth #sth #sonic the hedgehog #maria robotnik #fanart #id in alt text #dont tag this as ship idk why you would but pls dont #anyway hi the semester started and its kicking my ass immediately #threw the frog in the boiling water #ive wanted to do this for a long time tho so nows as good as any #something something reconciling 'i want x character to seek and receive comfort' #vs 'waht is reasonable comfort for him to seek?' #so he just doesnt like being alone sometimes. he used to sleep on her floor until she was like #'shadow knock it off and sleep in the bed i can make room' #she just throws her arm at him so he knows someones there. its plenty of comfort for him #anyway. shadow standing in the doorway at 2 am rouge i frew up

Going back to the post of the AU where Laios gives the monster manual to Falin before she and the rest of the party got sent back while he gets eaten by the red dragon, I can’t stop thinking of the post where someone said how they can’t get the idea of Falin’s immediate reaction as she holds the bloody monster Manual laying on grass just looking down at it, just the deafening silence before the panic sets in everyone just silent before she immediately starts flipping through the pages scrambling even more than Laios did in canon almost running back into the dungeon without thinking being pulled back by Marcille and Chilchuck

#falin touden #laios touden #touden siblings #dungeon meshi #Marcille would follow almost immediately jump in as well with her but Chilchuck knocks sense into them first #Shuro would try to use going back into the dungeon to show his worth to propose to Falin #But Falin just dosent care #and Marcille would Kick him down before he tried anything #Chilchuck definitely would be the only voice of reason #and Senshi is confused but is willing to help them

jaykyle au where they're theatre kids in the same school but they're not the actors jason's the scriptwriter/director and kyle is the prop manager (i don't know the official terms sorry) and they'd probably do an amazing job on the backstage setting if they could stop arguing for 5 whole seconds about their artistic visions and ideas and how "this would obviously work better this way"

#jason todd #kyle rayner #jaykyle #mypost #dc thoughts #vp of the club: maybe we should find some other people to do the job if they can't get along? #pres of the club: no they're both talented af and i want this to be raving success just knock their heads tgt and tell them to play nice or #i'll make them wear the get along shirt again #WAIT ONE SEC DONNA'S THE PRES and overseer she's pissed bcos kyle played the same role last year and he was chill then #wally's vp no 1 and backstage manager and he's thinking of kicking kyle out #dick's vp no 2 and main lead and he's thinking of kicking jason out bcos it's embarrassing and annoying to work with your younger siblings #kon helps kyle with props and bart is one of the actors and kon is jealous af about it he grumbles a little #roy is the fight scene choreographer #i'm trying to think of something for garth but the only thing that comes to mind i'm not sure are fitting enough #actor manager? weapon manager? oooh maybe pet manager if they have animals... human and pet manager???? hr department but including animals #ooooh maybe pet manager if they have animals #raven can play bart's love interest (in play) maybe (wally doesn't like it and neither does gar for very different reasons) #eddie deals with the contraptions they build for this bubble machines smoke machines lowering and raising anything mechanical #rose and cass helps with the weapons stuff they keep fighting too and roy is TIRED #connor plays the villain he didn't mean to or want to but he got dragged into it and he's really hot and gunned in for next years main lead #he doesnt want this #steph and mia are hair makeup costume department but bart and kon love to hangout and help too #jennie-lynn and bart are in-charge of socials #tim pops up a lot because so many of his friends (and brothers) are here and when he does he helps steph and mia #damian too pops up to help with pet management and sometimes prop art #this is much to dicks annoyance jason is already here can his little brothers LEAVE HIM ALONE SOMETIMES UGH #damian (taking cues from talia and bruce loverenemies dynamic and wanting an artist in-law): we should set jason and kyle up #dick: no / tim: hmm / dick: NO #i want to add the yj girls (cassie cissie greta anita) but i know too little about them right now but imagine they're there and the roles #are to be determined

Johnny Guilty Gear Strive is not a single day under 37 years old. "Age: Unknown" my ass. Face of a man whose frequent all-nighters in his 20s finally caught up with him. I understand, Johnny, I empathize...

#Photopost #Beard Johnny is awakening something in me... #Jk Johnny's always been a babe. Putting a beard on him's like garnishing a good steak #And like any juicy rare steak worth it's weight I will pick him up with both hands and tear him apart betwixt my jaws like an animal #The power went out and there's so much red and bright blue lightning outside it's like an alien planet. My phone is at 50% #The wind was blowing apples off the tree in the backyard and they were bouncing off the roof haha #Tomorrow I need to go see if it knocked down any of the ripe red ones from its apex... They're small but they're delicious #Tree had so many apples this year a big branch snapped from their weight. Bees'll be happy though when the apples fall and rot #Anyway I think Johnny mostly bottoms for men and less so for women but for Johnny/Sol... well... ;^) #I've imagined that Sol only bottoms if his partner can kick his ass #Lmao this took a turn. Bored and stoned. No internet and no lights to even read by. Unfiltered Sol Radguy after dark thoughts #Suggestive cw #Drugs cw

truly I think that Knock Out only joined Team Prime at the end of TFP because the writers knew the fans would riot if he died and truly that makes me love him even more

#TFP #Transformers #Knock Out #Transformers Prime #I do not have an explanation for why Shockwave survived #that one scene made it seem like he was going to get torn apart by undead Predacons #but then he shows up at the end?? #and dips #I have to assume there was an early draft where he died #anyway I was very excited to see the final episode of TFP (before Predacons Rising) but also was tense the whole time #because I did expect Knock Out to kick the bucket #I cheered when he made it to the end of the episode

I don’t think it makes sense to assume that Jason was mocking Mia’s past. At all. The thing that got jason painted as violent back in the 80s was his anger against rapists…how does that turn into mocking a victim? and that entire story was written by winick. Do we honestly think winick intended to communicate that? The same writer who made Jason’s first kill a man who was trafficking children? Who had Jason pause in his mission of madness to make sure those kids were found by the right people so they wouldn’t be in further danger?

#let’s knock on our skulls and kick our brains back into gear okay? #you can maintain that it wasn’t well executed or that the role mia played here bothers you #but you can’t say jason was mocking her for that or even seriously trying to hurt her physically #he was bsing like 90% of the story with his constant ‘we should all kill anyone who inconveniences us! speedy and GA should try to kill me #if they want to win’ like we understand that yes? #but that last part of his convo with Mia was the one serious part #he was wrong! of course he was wrong about ollie. but this was also Jason’s first time meeting ollie #it was ridiculous and unnecessary on his end and it put mia thru the emotional wringer for nothing #but that wasn’t the Intention. it was a stupid thing done by someone who never expected anything to come of it but still said what *to him* #was a way of offering advice #and as for the ppl who go ‘stop reaching abt jason being a victim and just read Mia instead’ #a) there’s more to Mia’s character than her past. anyone who thinks that fits Jason’s past wouldn’t necessarily like mia bc they’re not the #same character #it’s the same way that if jason was confirmed to have been a victim of SA as a kid then all of Mia’s fans wouldn’t love him like they love #her? this is common sense. anyways stop being assholes online and just recommend characters too ppl nicely #b) more than one character can have experienced a similar form of abuse. also common sense #c) it’s not an unreasonable hc #d) it doesn’t hurt you personally. none of this killed your grandma #once again: hate whoever you like but choosing the interpretation that doesn’t make sense just to make up a #‘valid’ reason is serious loser behaviour

hm. yeah ok

#like i don’t even care whatever #passes out from caring #this means nothing i just think it’s super duper when they touch #something about billy aggressive violent touch and steve gentle touch but billy being wayy more affected. whatever !! #billy wanting a fight w steve vs steve refusing to give it to him Whatever #deceptively gentle touch that instantly means rejection #who even cares #billy hargrove #harringrove #sortof insane when you think about steve getting beat the hell up and getting up and fighting after and billy having a total meltdown to the #point he was crying before getting knocked out #walks away with my hands in my pockets. kicks at the dirt #characters who are the same but different but so similar characters who are two sides of the same coin characters who #i think they should fight it out more #i lied it always means something. it is just also super duper when they touch #billy emotionally fragile but refuses to let anyone see it until he breaks vs steve who wears his heart on his sleeve and is desperate to be #needed to the point he puts himself in stupid situations Ok ! #ickyposts
