#Rally's works in the making

It's crazy that people still uphold show!Sansa as a well-written character and pretend that liking her is the pinnacle of feminism when it would be infinitely more impactful to acknowledge her terrible and misogynistic writing. This is the same character who, while written by two men, was thankful for the abuse she suffered because it allowed her to grow. The same character who we had to be told was smart because the writers were too lazy to develop or show her intelligence. The same character who had to rely heavily on the men surrounding her and ended up accomplishing nothing on her own merit ( and no, thinking that she deserved to be Queen doesn't mean that she earned it). She is not well-written, she is not complex, and she is not a feminist character. Which is fine! If you enjoy her then good on you, but please stop pretending that she's something she isn't just because you feel the need to justify liking her character

#anti got #anti d&d #anti show sansa #anti sansa stans #like literally one of the worst written characters on that show because they tried so hard to make her the most important #while being entirely incompetent and their only method of doing so was to steal from other characters which ruined the plot #the only arguable achievement was defeating LF but even then it's written in the script that she had to go to Bran to explain things #/she rallied the Vale army!/ no she didn't 😭 she wrote a letter to LF and he did everything. instead of showing her arc in the Vale and #her learning about politics to rally them herself they took the quickest route to give her a /badass/ savior scene #which only ended up making her look selfish + power-hungry for putting her brothers' lives at risk for not telling anybody about said lette #and idiotic in the aftermath after relying once again on LF even though he was very obviously manipulating her #/pawn to player/ sounds catchy on paper but without seeing that growth/development it doesn't work #Arya was terribly written but at least we /saw/ her training in a way we never did with Sansa #and people try to apply this same logic to the books and think she's gonna suddenly spring forth as a political mastermind #when that's not how George writes...we see characters develop and make mistakes on page and get actual earned growth #feminism isn't defending the writing of two men who gave her a rape plot not in the books because they thought it was /interesting/ #when the only aspect of that plot they adapted was a woman suffering abuse :/ #and as per usual with stansas their only /evidence/ of her being well-written is accusing you of being misogynistic if you don't like her

Happy 31st anniversary, DS9!

Because 31 is the Sloan number, I hereby challenge the fandom to collectively post at least 31 new fanworks tagged "Luther Sloan" on ao3 this year (2024) to celebrate! >:)

(The original air date of the first DS9 episode was Jan 3, 1993.)

#luther sloan #ds9 #section 31 #sloanshir #let's all go post sooo many fics and arts about this horrible man who was only in 3 episodes <3 #i can make up some Sloan prompts later if that would be helpful #(btw for reference: in 2023 there were 40 works tagged Luther Sloan.) #(so basically just keep up the great work y'all. but also: LET'S DO THIS!) #anyway. this is def inspired by hellostuffedtiger unintentionally rallying us all to post a bunch more sloanshir at the end of 2023 haha <3 #and obvs almost all sloan obsession in the fandom is dill's fault <3 #anyway. pleaaaase write some sloan fics for ds9's section thirty-one-st anniversary i am begging #star trek deep space 9 #deep space nine #star trek deep space nine #you can post your sloan things only on tumblr/whatever if you prefer. but ao3 makes it easy to count. so that's the only stat i'll track

Also since im tryna be active again lemme set my stance clear, FREE PALESTINE FOREVER! 🇵🇸🇵🇸 Don't ever let em think we're done. Every week every day every hour don't let the world forget innocents are being murdered en masse. NO business as usual & DONT let the words 'Free Palestine' fall out of trend. Palestinians deserve justice & their homeland. We keep going STRONG! Help in whatever way you can. We cannot give up hope on them, not for how much they've endured already.

#palestine #free palestine #protest #i struggle with making posts in general so ive vowed to compensate by making sure i go out in public to rallies every moment i can #we can all help in different ways so find whatever way works best for you #every small action can amount to something big because we are many #so we can do it! lets make an impact and save lives and honor innocents who have been martyred #hope for a better future and get our hands worn fighting for it

I'm not sure how to elaborate on this but Hilbert is such a fun character in the way he actively rejects redemption. He thinks he's irredeemable and has come to terms with that, but he also is desperate to avoid the responsibility that comes with actually trying to be better. He is absolutely hellbent on not changing or learning his lesson. He believes in his cause and is entirely unwilling to give it up or compromise on it. What a guy.

#Eiffel desperately trying to babygirl-ify him. Lovelace trying to redeem him or use him to work through her insecurities or whatever that #was. Hilbert beating both of them back with a tennis racket. dead set on staying a horrible little science man #Its been almost a year now I should really relisten then come back and elaborate on this properly #curio chatter #wolf 359 #alexander hilbert #He makes a good foil for Eiffel I think but like not in a way where Eiffel can rally actively project on him #but Eiffel doesn't so much want to avoid that obligation to change than thinks he doesn't deserve redemption? idk

perpetually pingponging between having competitive dog ambitions and wanting nothing to do with the dog community ever again 🏓

#dogblr #dog sports #anyway i finally got a dt launcher #ive been wanting one since mav was a baby #they arent even that expensive i just was too nervous to ruin my dog #(a dt launcher shoots a blank and launches a toy to teach gundogs how to retrieve and be steady to gunshot) #i am semi confident in my ability to work rory to it without ruining her #if i get it soon i can spend like 6 weeks making her wild about the toy it launches #indoors and in the city #and then once the snow melts it should be simple to introduce the shot #anyway im having field test dreams #but at the same time LOATHE many of the people involved #anyway #thats where im at #i did buy the launcher though so we'll see #semirelated: the person who got top rally brittany this year got huge praise from the breed club president #who refused to acknowledge that mav won it last year #it doesnt matter but it made me so sad #someone on the breed club told me how important it was that i stay involved and i push for change #but they lowkey broke my heart by being so mean about mav #cant handle me at my worst (beautiful perfect out of standard dog) dont deserve me at my best (beautiful perfect in standard dog)

My secret superpower is straightbaiting miserable men into improving their lives and being better people 👍

#ra speaks #personal #TWICE. HOW DOES THIS HAPPEN TWICE. #the first time it was like haha yeahhh sorry dude I’m gay and I was really trying to make this work on the premise that I might be bi #but this ain’t working out :/ sorry #him: oh wow this kinda sucks but oh well *leaves his family’s evangelical cult* *keeps coming to community service events* *etc.* #but a second time??? a guy wants to ‘hang out w me’ so I end up dragging him to protests and rallies and community service events #and when I break the news like hey dude you’re cool but I am a capital D dyke #and he’s like *sigh* yeah I figured. but can we still carpool to that protest on Saturday? #like ?????? I’m not even trying to fix you. you’re the one trying to fix me. and I reverse psychology you into being a better person. what.

why craig are take over world

essay by me (craig)

As much as Craig may seem like a simple doodle of a cat, his potential for world domination should not be underestimated. Despite his crude appearance, Craig embodies the essence of adaptability and resilience, traits that are essential for any aspiring ruler.

Firstly, Craig's simplicity works to his advantage. Underestimation is a powerful tool in warfare, and many would dismiss Craig as inconsequential. However, this oversight allows Craig to operate in the shadows, biding his time until the perfect moment to strike.

Secondly, Craig's lack of defined features makes him a versatile symbol. He can represent anything from innocence to cunning, depending on the narrative spun around him. This ambiguity allows Craig to appeal to a wide range of followers, from disillusioned citizens seeking change to opportunistic power-seekers.

Thirdly, Craig's handwritten signature adds a personal touch to his endeavors. In a world increasingly dominated by digital signatures and impersonal interactions, Craig's handwritten mark harkens back to a simpler time, fostering a sense of nostalgia and authenticity among his followers.

In conclusion, Craig may appear unassuming at first glance, but beneath his simplistic exterior lies the potential for world domination. Through adaptability, versatility, and a personal touch, Craig has the tools necessary to rally followers and reshape the world in his image. Beware the power of Craig, for his ascent to global dominance may be closer than we think.

the terra prime subplot is so wild because usually when a hate group is trying to dehumanize people broadcasting an image of a really cute baby on all frequencies isn’t the move

#this dude is literally like what’s more dangerous than an alien? a child #it’s become a lot easier to suspend my disbelief in these matters over the years bc I’ve come to realize ppl do shit that makes no sense #all the time in real life #but like. literally no hybrid babies existed. and then they made one. to rally people against the threat of hybrid babies #and it’s just a fucking baby with pointed ears #it’s not even weird looking #and this is their big terrorist moment? #THE GREATEST THREAT HUMANITY HAS EVER FACED. AND THEN THEY CUT TO A BABY #I would buy this more if canonically the terrorist organization was so deep in their own koolaid they genuinely saw a baby as a threat #and then the rest of the planet watching was just like wtf… #like the delusionality of terra prime thinking they were doing smt with this could work. but it’s just kinda played straight #brains liveblogs ent

no thoughts head empty only minister of magic sirius black

#hE<3 #look. charisma that would make voldemort WEEP #he comes across as fiery and able to rally the people #and he is! and he also has a Very ambitious list of policy goals #BUT HE GOES ABOUT THEM THOUGHTFULLY #EVERY MASSIVE FIERY SPEECH IS DESIGNED WITH A VERY SPECIFIC GOAL IN MIND #AND HE'S DOING WORK BEHIND THE SCENES TOO #HE'D BE GOOD AT IT

saddest part of a poll is watching fans mourn their guys 😭 I'm sorry I was the mechanism for such loss

#joui jouki fans you fought so hard and you believed....redcloak fans you really rallied....guiman fans he WAS just a little guy... #easthies fans he DID look cool as hell and I wanted to see him in the next round. alas #oh sorrows and pain...I want everyone to win #also all this talk of voting makes me sound like a fuckin lib #what if we work together instead of trying to compete asjuasydkjs #anyway. back to the tournament #I may be a socialist but this is a bit and I will commit to it #mod speaks

love my digital art class but god it is filling me with rage and hatred for adobe.

#my post #i hope im able to use my tablet in classes when i transfer #bc good lord. this shit is impossible #i would be done with this project already .. but im not even halfway through. #its due on friday too and i cant get adobe illustrator on my laptop and work on it outside class bc adobe wont fucking COOPERATE WITH ME. #its trying to make me pay. girl the school is already paying for it for me what the hell are you talking about. let me in #i should talk to the professor..oogh but theres so much other stuff i havent done for either of the classes i have with this professor #bc of that unnecessarily long quarantine i had to do right at the beginning of the semester putting me behind #and i would feel bad abt asking for an extension for whats basically the only assignment ive actually done for both of their classes #i would feel less bad i think if i had accommodations for this kinda stuff. but i never actually went to get any and now it wouldnt be worth #it bc im not gonna be at this school next semester. and i only have these two classes that i have anything to do for #oh right this post is abt adobe #.. i dont think id be able to fully finish this assignment on time even with an extension #bc adobe illustator. like i said. is filling me with rage #it is so tedious and finicky and unnecessarily complicated and doesnt have the tools i like and i cant find a fill tool or how to make the #eraser smaller and im using a fucking. mouse. a mouse that i cant right click with btw bc we're using apple computers and the mice are lite #rally just one button. #i love this professor and i enjoy the projects but good GOD. i hate the tools so much #maybe ill ask them for an extension and if i could do it. not on adobe

I get wanting to claim that Blake's bisexuality is confirmed canon, but if you compare how the show handles canon m/f attraction to Blake's sapphic attraction, the difference is obvious

Jaune: consistently flirts with Weiss, attempts to woo her with music, wants to ask Weiss to prom, seeks advice from his team on how to pursue her

Weiss: visibly affected when Neptune calls her a cute nickname, changes her opinion on fog machines to agree with him, tries to switch mission roles to be with him, asks Neptune to prom

Pyrrha: shows interest in being on Jaune's team multiple times, visibly upset after giving Jaune dating advice to the point Nora comments "practice what you preach," shoves her tongue down Jaune's throat without his consent before sending him to safety

Nora: rambles about how she and Ren aren't together in a tone that very clearly conveys she wishes they were, reluctantly rebukes Jaune when he assumes they're a couple, declares Ren is "her man" in V6, has that weird run-around conversation about feelings in V7, shoves her tongue down his throat without his consent

Qrow: tells a story where he's taken down by a "waitress's tiny miniskirt"

Blake (m/f): doodles Adam in her book, called "my darling" by him, blatantly said by Ilia to have been chasing after him

Meanwhile...

Blake (sapphic): has no visible reaction to Ilia's confession, holds hands with Yang, visibly affected by Yang's staring after cutting her hair, goes to a dance with her, only teams up with Yang during combat

Every single m/f canon attraction, requited or otherwise, is explicitly told and shown while any queer attraction is relegated to hints and implications. This is why it's difficult to believe Blake is confirmed when she doesn't follow the pattern that's been fairly rigid for 8 seasons now

People want the show to give her and Yang the same respect they gave the straight couples, and they so easily could in a single sentence, but they haven't. That's the biggest disappointment of all

#rwde #left out married couples bc its hard enough to remember the main cast and im at work so cant go back and check lol #also marriage is like the ultimate confirmation so no need to really bring that in #really hoping v9 has that conformation bc its been far too long theyve been hamming it up since v6 cmon guys #not entirely sure i should put adam stuff here but that my darling nonsense makes me laugh every time #its so obviously tacked on last minute #but its mainly there so showcase how even taurudonna got onscreen acknowledgment #also dont care abt any non show queer. if it aint in the show it dont exist #also also coco is literally based off a nazi so maybe not the greatest girlboss to rally behind
