#this gave me so much life #Barnaby's laugh is something else #the whole skit with fantoccio turning into a pickle also ascended me #man there is something about a villian who seems softspoken and well mannered but as soon as they whip out a maliciously hoarse cackle #i immediately make myself scarce #billie bust up barnaby #barnaby bbu #his va was sure having a hoot #blackgryph0n #marry poppins #sketches

Hasn't anyone told you that if it's unnecessary, leave the minor family alone. Why's that? I don't know what's going on with your families. But if he talked to me nicely, I'd talk to him nicely. Manners, you know?

#kinnporsche #kinnporsche the series #apo nattawin #mile phakphum #bible wichapas #kpedit #kinnporscheedit #thai bl #thai drama #bl drama #my edits. #manners you know he says while talking rudely #malicious compliance #not vegas waiting for his chance the whole damn day to light porsche's cig #how did he even get into the building??

idk curse of darkness makes me think cause theres a lot of things you can chew on when it comes to trevors character and like the thing that really gets me is what the fuck was he doing not telling hector about what was in the seal? like? this implies a possible habit of withholding information for 'others benefit' and i NEED to know if thats an actual thing he does regularly or if he was just having a weird day because its. interesting.

#especially because arikado does the same goddamn shit although definitely in a far more malicious manner

SAIYAN LORE & CULTURE HEADCANONS #1 - SOCIALIZATION.

In this post, socialization refers to how each Saiyans greet each other, common phrases, and other such things.

HANDSHAKES: THEY DO NOT EXIST.

Instead, Saiyans grip each other by the forearm, and shake roughly/firmly or gently up and down, twice. Three times is pushing it-- reserved for strained bonds or to quietly say "I don't like you", while four shakes is considered mocking/disrespectful. Most times this is done silently, but there can be verbal greetings to accompany this 'arm greeting' (or replace it entirely).

GREETINGS & COMMON SAYINGS.

"May Yamoshi guide you/her/him/your childling/sister/brother [insert other bond/relation here]." This is the Saiyan version of Bless you/May God bless you/Good morning or goodnight. There is a belief system/religion/spirituality amongst the Saiyans, and it is called Yamoshism. Depending on one's philosophical standing, Yamoshi is either a Patron Saint for the Saiyans or the equivalent of an Ascended Master/Saiyan who underwent a process similar to apotheosis. Either way, this is the best thing to hear if you are a Saiyan or carry Saiyan blood as it is usually impossible to utter it maliciously. It denotes a large amount of care and thoughtfulness.

"May Eelnana shine upon you/grace you/smile upon you/your troop, etc." It's the same as above except it involves the Goddess embedded in Yamoshism. Depending on one's philosophical slant, Eelnana either exists as a separate and real entity (hint: Maiz is a believer in this school of thought), or she's purely symbolic. To be told the Goddess of External Power, Inner Strength and Innovation/Change is smiling down upon you and/or guiding you is no small thing to say. This is explicitly saying you are trusted to know what you are doing, and who you must be.

"May our suns rise on you/never set on you." This is the non-religious/non-spiritual version of the above two sayings.

CHILDLINGS & PROPER CONDUCT.

Baby Saiyans are called childlings up until adolescent age (16). Other affectionate names are not translatable into Universal, or other dialects as easily, but the pronunciations are suspiciously similar to the following words: hellspawns, hellhounds, critters and runts. Childlings who stay on the planet are expected to learn hand-eye coordination as soon as they're able to talk. Childlings are who sent away, aka "infiltration babies" are typically abandoned/not talked about until they come back stronger. Until then, they are out of sight, out of mind. Childlings staying on the planet are treated nicer than their weaker counterparts (unless like Maiz, they have a visible birth defect that can impede their ability to fight and defend themselves). In this case, they are pushed harder to overcome their limitations and only then, are they treated with more grace than their counterparts. Outside of that, childlings are typically encouraged to interact with their environment and make connections. If it turns out they're the type of Saiyan who cannot bond easily, this is when they figure that out and plan "ahead." If they can bond, their lives will be a bit easier-- they'll have a second family to fall back on (Team Bardock as an example). However, just because a Saiyan can bond doesn't mean they will get close with everyone. (Ex. Karne was atypical in this regard; she was warm and bubbly on the surface and actively sought out friends, but she was picky about what bonds she wanted. She was insistent on becoming Bardock's first friend* even when he was being difficult. She genuinely loved and doted on Seripa/Fasha, who took over as the more "hot-headed personality" as they both grew up. She ruthlessly killed Artichoke after confirming her pregnancy with Maiz, who she actually wanted. She was emotionally available for her daughter and spoiled her rotten with love and affection. She loved her so much to the point of shoving her into a space pod to save her life during the Genocide). Maiz is the same way, and she's aware of it to varying levels**.

Most Saiyans were either trained to be independent or part of a collective. Individualism spiked post Yamoshi's generation, but especially under Frieza. Incidentally, King Cold didn't do much meddling; he found their ability to work as a collective amusing and intriguing. It was Frieza who took issue and thus, started nitpicking at them little by little until a schism was later created-- one that would give rise to the very thing he feared; a union of Saiyans. (This union and their old, ancient traditions that were taken underground would later give rise to the legend he tried to erase: the Super Saiyan).

#{{ it's saiyan lore time. >:3 be well fed my moots. muahahahahaha!!!! #Headcanon: Who Else But a Saiyan? #{{ * my version/portrayal of Bardock as I always clarify. #{{ **Maiz can decide to be less malicious/hostile/aggressive/antagonistic but she's PICKY about who gets that effort. #{{ I know I make Frieza comparison jokes but she's really more like her mama than anything. Karne was picky when it came to partners/folks. #{{ And look at Maiz.... only heart eyeing men who remind her of Bardock or have the capacity for violence in a specific manner. etc. #{{ She's so picky when it comes to everything that I really should be making Karne jokes. 😂😂😂 It's her fault tbh lmaooooooooo. But ye. #{{ Maiz is a mama's girl. so that means she's terrible and we all love her for it.

some things said abt tommy.................. you would not survive being finnish

#do i like tommys demeanor and mannerisms bc theyre familiar to me who has grown up around finnish men? maybe! #even in 7x03 some of the comments........... #yeah you may think hes rude and unemotional but im like thats my neighbour uncle tomi and hes cool 👍👍👍 #also hes not even as unemotive as finnish men so it actually works in a tv show while being familiar to me #but like the biggest thing is the accusation of rudeness (and on other sites malicious intent) like i dont know think what you want i guess

[xulips]

how does it feel making THE an shrimpaishi anon cry. sob, perhaps. potentially even wail. like a child. in the william squilliam wonkabonk chocolate factory. who is not getting chocolate for SHIT, might i add. i hope it crushes your soul into cheerio dust. /j /j /j the art is as good as always but this feels like a double whammy w the addition of my debilitating cold rn 😭😭🦐

IM SORRY FOR MAKING YALL CRY IT WAS (definitely) NOT MY INTENTION

#ask #im not evil. i say. as i rub my hand in an evil and malicious manner

[theteaisaddictive]

the very concept of a 24-year-old not understanding the internet was ridiculous in 2013 and is still ridiculous in 2024. just for the record.

#rae rewatches doctor who #i remember Discourse about 11 being weird and creepy standing guard outside clara’s house — which he is to be clear #but on rewatch clara is so clearly into it that i find myself recontextualising in a twilight-esque manner. like how everyone else on the #planet finds edward watching her sleep creepy and stalkerish but bella herself is actually into it #there’s a cursèd comparison for you and i promise it was not made with malicious intent fjskfkfk

What is going on in ur little dog brain pochita…….

#csm #.txt #denji #cc #I really don’t think he’s malicious #I think just. IF this somewhat taunting colder version of pochita isn’t just denjis warped perception of him #from his own issues #I just think pochita is probably just caring about him in the way a devil wouls #like. he’s not human (obviously) so it wouldn’t be surprising for him to have inhuman manerisms #and I mean if I were pochita I would be so upset and frustrated having to watch all the shit being done to denji #and I think maybe that’s starting to show even if he’s still trying to be comforting/supportive to denji #what r u cooking…… #I think he wants what’s best for denji (or what he believes is best for denji) and is trying to push denji to like #get OUT of this whole terminal situation he’s been in for like the entirety of part 2 #like I really don’t like the idea of pochita being ~secretly evil~ #(by which I mean. being purposefully harmful to denji) #bc 1) hasn’t denji gone through enough. and 2) it would just go against all the themes surround pochita so far #I don’t think it would make any sense #anyways. I do think pochitas current mannerisms are a combination of all of the above #ie. Denjis perception of both himself and what ‘family’ means which spills onto his perception of pochita #and pochitas possible frustration with denjis situation #and just simple the fact of pochita being an inhuman being with different morals

"I don't like looking at a guide to understand tone tags!" Fam the youth of today make up new slang every five minutes nowadays. I'm getting whiplash trying to understand* Skibidi Ohio rizzler gyatt whatthefuckever, but I'm not trying to stop the rest of the world from using it

*I appreciate you taking the time to try and explain it, but I've done some research and... it's not sticking. I don't understand, and I'm okay with not understanding

#let people use tone tags for goodness sake #they've helped me so much over the years #they don't have less value because they don't help everyone #we don't stop people from using sign language just because some people don't understand it #you can learn how to use it yourself #it's up to you to decide whether you want to #but don't make other people feel silly for using something that works #besides #doing this (emotional insinuation) is never used in earnest anyhow #everytime i see (affectionately) (maliciously) etc being used #it's used in some form of joking manner #tone tags are an attempt to be sincere #because i and others need that clarification #because i'm fucking paranoid and think people are repulsed by me 24/7 #ugh #i didn't mean for this to be a rant #tone tags aren't hurting anyone

"oh, yeah," we think, "we could probably cross this over into Li nked Uni verse if we actually draw out the canon for long enough, smacking different versions of the same character into each other is always fun especially when it has the potential for massive cultural differences and shit like running into things where the thing that has been forgotten has significance beyond the things that are remembered. Hey, we should probably check the comic in order to comply with the six-month rule, we don't think we ever finished-"

We return from the reference images. We have remembered why we didn't finish looking into the base comic.

#we speak #negative chatter #moving one level of fandomization away from og LU to merely use them as inspiration for bootleg LU with more base game inspiration #we forgot why we had the author blocked. we remember now #we probably wont elaborate further on this because we keep a firm policy of not publically shit talking folk at random #we just kinda got Unexpectedly Sandblasted by them being weird abt furries&otherkin in a random twi light reference post #we are censoring this so it does not go into their tag btw! no one likes random shit talk and this is just us being vaguely pissy #the wording is vague enough that they feel like theyre like. they dont mean to imply they DISLIKE this group #they just find them strange and offputting and they strongly dislike that they project anything onto A Character #as we do not control their life and theres nothing we can do to force them to Not be uncomfortable or act Strange towards a group #all we can really do is like. scrunge up at an attitude we find it VERY difficult to mesh with and go our separate ways #the multitude of takes on these characters and the way that their fandom is so creative about them and produces so many different Ideas #is very fun! and we heavily enjoy reading it sometimes! however we cannot enjoy the base comic #because though we know that the author likely didnt intend it to come off like that and we know accusations of hate would be FAR too strong #we cannot shake the feeling that we are the sort of thing that they would look upon as a deeply offputting aberration #and they merely avoid voicing that out of a mix of manners and a wish to not get into discourse while hundreds of people are watching #so it is best to keep our distance where we don't have to be uncomfortable at the subtle bias that will pervade through all art #and they dont have to get grated against in ways that may negatively impact things from us having little shame in our existence #which is to say theres like a solid chance that the bias is not malicious and is in fact just like. lingering cultural bias type shit #however we arent gonna deal with that and us being a huge obnoxious weirdo might be liable to push them against us via abrasion #being exposed to smth more often can very easily actively push you against that thing by virtue of dislike of the people who like it #and though our individual action may not mean much in the scheme of things it will do less harm to both of us if we back the hell off #give that shit some time to soak without being prodded at too hard and hopefully someone else will be able to open the conversation better #because with bias especially you CANNOT break it down with one or two discussions #and you very much have to have the person with the bias willing to step back and examine that pattern of bias and unravel it #because if you go up at people like “this is WRONG and heres why” theyre far more likely to get defensive and feel attacked #and then double down because they feel attacked and don't want to give in to people who have been Nothing But Rude To Them #its a pattern of thought that can be a real bitch to deal with and we really arent capable of the subtle approach it requires to break thro #anyways. where were we. oh yeah we forgot why we blocked someone and now we're making a tumblr post about it

i hope you dont me saying but its great seeing the joy buying meat to prepare brings you and im really happy you can find that joy i wish you all the best barbecues in the future o7

Thank you! It's my favorite weekend activity to cook some meat/recipe thing using stuff that was on sale and that takes a lot of time to make good (along with baking). It makes me very happy to get to an end result and find that it slaps.

Ultimate goal is to someday have a house with a little land where I can have a chest freezer, a smoker, and a grill so I can transmogrify into my final form: twice divorced single dad who's a Little Too Into Feeding the Gay Neighbors, except I have no kids or failed marriages nor do I drink Busch Lite, let alone any alcohol... and I'm the probably the gay neighbor. Its more about the aesthetic, really.

The ultimate Midwestern aesthetic.

#jacq answers #making pumpkin snickerdoodles again on monday at the request of my coworkers #cooking is for me #baking is for forcing upon coworkers and friends in an entirely malicious manner #i know too many divorced dads who fit that joke description #my fucking step dad included #he (despite being a conservative dipshit) is Very Excited to tell you about fishing trips with his gay bestie

> information on the wikis on the pantheon of faerun and the pantheons that would BECOME the pantheon of faerun imply there were gods that either changed to become another god or were overtaken

> the term "pantheon of faerûn" means that there are gods for the other continents of toril

> ao is the head god of *all* the deities of toril, which ties into the above point abt other pantheons

> we dont know shit or fuck abt osse

> :3c

#deciding that urius was born on another continent rather than faerûn was so sexy of me actually #im kind of going the durge route in that theres a definite blood tie to a deity #but it's not in such a malicious manner as the durge is #ITS STILL GOTTA BE SAD THO!! THEY ARENT SCARRED AND TERRIFIED OF DRAGONS ANS HAVE AMNESIA FOR NOTHING #osse is the toril equivalent of aboriginal australia btw! i got sick of how obnoxiously western everything is so #chattering #urius of naporia

[mexashepot]

The summary of today in my personal life

#it was so fun to observe it unfold from the side #but nooo one of the idiots involved turned to ME for emotional support #and tried to play the victim when she in fact fucked something up :) :) :) #and I'm an incredibly honest person so I cannot provide emotional support to the person I think is at least 50% to blame for the situation #so it was Rough #I sent a mutual friend to console her instead lol #and then explained very politely and in a very censored manner my perspective of things #(miscommunication of everyone involved #no malicious intentions from anyone. but y'all are too blame bc you need to speak clearer) #the uncensored version of that was 'y'all are very irrational and immature and are driving me insane please open your mouth and communicate #i don't want to be the responsible adult i want to be the sleeping/chilling adult leave me alone and grow up and stop being so childish #and immature and irrational. just COMMUNICATE your intentions for fuck's sake and leave me out of it #just because i did not publicly take a side does not mean i do not agree with you' #but you know i cannot say that so instead i just offered my prescriptive v politely #but it was exhausting #there is a reason i always stay out of drama. do not drag me into it.

I keep thinking about the not-things (and the midnight entity, the scherzo creature, the solitract, etc.), and how they all, in their own ways, specialize in mimicking people. Copying voices and faces and thoughts and mannerisms is ubiquitous for creatures that live in the fringes of spacetime. Which makes sense; how else is a kinless creature from an empty place supposed to learn and evolve if not by latching on and copying the first tangible thing they encounter? What's a better way to escape into that wider universe than looking like the people there, encouraging them to bring you back to their world? Integrating into our universe is functionally their equivalent to leaving the nest and learning how to fly, whether that be malicious or harmless, conscious or instinctual. So, on that note: Consider the Doctor, another being found on the fringes of the universe. Consider how they imprint on people after regeneration ("like a chick hatching from an egg", to quote a deleted line from the Christmas Invasion). The way one time lord in the audios regenerates into a bird after spending years on a bird planet, and the Doctor, after spending so much time on earth, has been described as half human. Consider the way the child Tecteun found just happened to look Gallifreyan, the way this is directly paralleled with the Qurunx, a creature that takes on a form that "we instinctively want to protect, as a defence". Consider this:

The Time Lords view regeneration as a conduit for immortality, but what if the actual purpose, the naturally evolved trait that would matter to a lonely creature from outside the universe, is mimicry?
