#Seems otherwise good but

[doberbutts]

Google: hello I recommend this show to you based on your interest in 1600s Japanese modern period dramas and animations

Me: oh actually this show is pretty neat, I like that the Japanese characters actually speak Japanese and not *winkwink* they're totes talking in Japanese but for the viewer's sake they're using English *winkwink* and from the sound of it traditional Japanese at that because this is sounding very antiquated and out of date compared to my rough knowledge of modern Japanese

Show: :)

Show: have 10 minutes of a character being tortured by being boiled to death in a large cast iron pot :)

Me: ...

Me: WHY

#Seems otherwise good but #I wish shows had better warning than 'may contain violence' #Like yeah it's a samurai show of fucking course it has violence #I'm expecting to see people's heads get chopped off not Human Soup #I know I know it's an actual torture method that was used back then but come on #At least narratively I had plenty of warning so I muted the fuck out of that shit and looked away until he wasn't actively dying on screen #And tbf most of it was background noise during an exclusively Japanese dialogue bit so I could just read the subtitles and not listen #Also maaaaajor yikes on the origin of the English word 'Japanese' #English speakers don't be racist challenge: impossible

sure ango may have betrayed every organization under the sun but tachihara put in the effort to build up the perfect stereotypical gangstersona and act his silly little heart out for the perfect plot twist so we all know who deserves the award for best port mafia betrayal

#ango should have created a gangstersona too… it would have been a bit more spicy #although I do admit that not knowing where ango’s loyalty lies does make the betrayals in dark era good #but I guess similar things apply to Tachihara too which is why chapter 77 hits so good #Rimbaud gets third place for pm betrayals ig I like that his motives are about gay love but otherwise it’s just an okay betrayal #dazai isn’t even on the list because no one except Chuuya seems to count his defection as betrayal lol #I giggled so much during the episode because Tachihara was so dramatic throughout the episode ^_^ he is so funny #bsd #bungou stray dogs #bungo stray dogs #bsd season 4 #tachihara michizou #bsd tachihara #ango sakaguchi #bsd ango

there's no way the bathroom at peppino's pizza is actually that big but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ . hey ummm anyway.... i care them...... anyway there's a lil ramble on my take on fake pep's like psyche or whatever in tags on the og post if ur into that kinda thing :y

hey! it's a series! fake peppino world tour: [noise] [noisette] [peppino]<- u are here [gustavo] [gerome] [noisette again]

#ramble after realtags yeag. shoutout to serrangelic btw suggesting the silhouettes thing bc i would have Died otherwise #pizza tower #peppino spaghetti #fake peppino #gustavo and brick #arting #pizzaposting #so anyway i think fake peppino has like. a general awareness that he is supposed to Be Peppino and that he was Made to do that #and likewise he does generally try to...do that. the thing he does NOT realize is hes like really goddamn bad at it #not to be mean but like...c'mon. they are pretty distinctly different kinds of guys even beyond the physiology yknow. #he's neither on-brand nor fooling anyone dsjdsjjkgfsd. BUT! #since the rest of the cast generally likes him [at least as I play it] he thinks hes doing just fine #he's like 'oh they r happy with me so i must be getting a good grade in being peppino :)' #so getting told that 'yeah you actually really suck at that but that was never the reason people liked you' #and told that by og model peppino no less--yknow THE guy he's supposed to be living up to #who's already a bit intimidating for that and who ALSO totally wrecked him TWICE in the tower #making him acutely familiar with just how formidable the guy is and how much there IS to live up to.... #it's a Moment for sure. not really a sad or hurt one though. just... contemplative. #thinking abt people liking him for being the guy he's already naturally been being even though that guy is Not Peppino #i don't think he's gonna be super broken up about realizing he has a bad grade in peppino given everything else hes got now #nor do i really think he cares enough to go like reinvent himself or whatever after the fact #he seems to b pretty clearly having fun with it already so i think he just keeps doing that #and in some cases he still has the pre-installed peppino traits/instincts like to cooka da pizza. and that's fine #is this projection. yes. but if youve been following me awhile you know most of my character writing is ghdhfdgf #gonna kinda expand on all this in the gerome one which is...one after next. itll be a bit but man. #anyway peppino will never admit to anyone and especially not himself that he's gotten a little attached to the guy. hee hoo #pep tends to be kinda surly but he certainly has his ways of showing he cares. all of which are on display here #''that thing is not my son'' says man currently watching thing's antics with the 'bemused dad' arms crossed pose. yeah ok buddy. #gus is totally onto him already but hes not gonna say anything. #if u read all this ur prize is not having to go decode fp's rot13. his lines are ''meant to be you...?'' and ''wrong question.''

billy & max in stranger things 2x09 "the gate"

#in the good stranger things in my mind this is where their relationship started to heal #and actually i think it is because max seems to care more about billy in season 3 and vice versa too. #otherwise he easily could've sacrificed her and the rest of his family to the flayer. #i mean it's not like the flayer was worried about getting him caught #stranger things #billy & max #billy hargrove #max mayfield #stedit #siblings #what we could have had #mygifs

Can we stop referring to JKR as a "violent transmisogynist" instead of a "violent transphobe"? Unless you're specifically discussing the transmisogyny aspect of her bigotry, only acknowledging her transmisogyny erases the significant damage she's caused to other trans people. Her words are influencing laws even in America that are targeting young trans men, transmascs, and non binary people specifically, so it's about time we stop pretending she's only a transmisognynist instead of an all around horrible transphobe.

#transandrophobia #exorsexism #transmisandry #jkr #jk rowling #transphobia #since the release of her new book i have only seen people refer to her as a transmisogynist and it sucks when an otherwise good post is #ruined because the op only wants to acknowledge the harm of One Group jkr has targeted #i could write a whole post on how it seems people tend to prefer using transmisogyny in place of transphobia because they believe it sounds #more impactful with the underlying suggestion being that they believe transphobia is not serious unless directed at trans women #note: this is largely cis people who are doing this

fuck it. plaguesona

#i thought of this a couple weeks ago on the bus a couple seats away from someone loudly coughing into the open air #i think something snapped and i decided to make a fuckin. medieval ass plague sona. horseman of pestilence fursona #this is also why i was asking abt animals with medical symbolism.. originally i wanted a two headed snake like the staff of caduceus #but it turns out thats actually hermes symbol. the real symbol for medicine is the rod of asclepius which looks pretty similar #the difference is that theres only one snake and its twined around a stick. ironically mercy from overwatch's weapons are named after #the caduceus despite the misconception LMAOOO #snakes were the most consistent medicine related animal i could find even across multiple cultures so it couldve really worked #if i could actually draw scalies.. one of my earliest sketches had a cobra with a syringe at the end of its tail like a rattlesnake #and it had markings similar to the syringe tube but i didnt have much else going on so i scrapped it #i was also recommended animals with less obvious ties to medicine like jellyfish and horseshoe crabs and learned something new ^_^ #im not confident i could pull off a non-mammal furry but they were really good ideas i might put into smth else.. i also thought of #axolotls bc of their regenerative thing and growing back limbs but i think that would suit smth like a surgeon or amputation... #possums and bats were also an option bc theyre actually really resistant to most diseases like rabies but i feel like ppl wouldnt know that #if they saw it so it looks a little ironic at a glance. rabbits rats and mice were my second option bc of animal testing and lab rats #less obvious reference but the moon rabbit in chinese mythology is loosely connected to medicine bc it makes the elixir of life #otherwise lab mice in a pharmacy / modern medicine setting seemed fitting and jerboa tails remind me of cotton buds #and. ironically. jerboas are more closely related to elephants than rats and mice. can you believe it #my art #myart #my oc #sona #plaguesona #cottonbud #fur #furry art #character design #ref sheet #oc ref sheet

"I thought you would leave if you didn't need me" "But I do need you"

God this is probably the fastest I've ever shipped something in my life. Like I've had hoking moments of going "Wow I ship them" but no this isn't a funny haha these two are gay and I love them

Also I probably got the colors wrong for Geo, it was hard to find good reference images for him since all the ones I could find had weird lightning.

#ninjago #lego ninjago #ninjago dragons rising #my art #ninjago spoilers #ninjago dragons rising spoilers #lostshipping #that seems to be the ship name we're all agreeing on #cole brookstone #ninjago geo #also for geo's skin i just used a normal geckle for the color reference #since again finding a good reference with normal lighting was really hard #idk i might change the colors if i draw him again in the future #also i was too lazy to do an actual background #otherwise i would have gone like... full redraw mode with this scene #GOD I just can't get over how gay these two were like holy shit they are homosexual

I'm telling you, everything's gonna be all right as long as we're together!

#mario movie #mario movie spoilers #super mario bros #super mario bros movie #super mario bros movie spoilers #cherrysip edits #i've seen so many screenshots and a few scattered gifs but it doesn't seem like anyone's actually done a proper gifset SO #I AM SO NORMAL ABOUT THIS SCENE. SO UNBELIEVABLY NORMAL. I DIDN'T WATCH THIS CLIP 60 TIMES AND CRY EVERY TIME #YOU CAN'T PROVE ANYTHING #but seriously it is unbelievable how sweet these brothers are. i am SO grateful that the movie is actually giving a lot of emotional weight #to their relationship! i just can't get over how mario is wholly focused on soothing luigi because that's what's important to him #and how luigi does relax and smile because he trusts his brother wholeheartedly #PICTURES TAKEN SECONDS BEFORE DISASTER :( :( :( :( :( :( #i also love how you can tell mario genuinely did not know that luigi was sucked in too (this is confirmed in the newest tv spot too) #and so he's kind of in quiet awe of where he is and then HE SEES LUIGI and PROTECTIVE BIG BROTHER MODE activates instantly #their reunion in the movie is actually going to end me. i will leave my mortal body behind and rejoin the sea. IT BETTER BE GOOD #but after this i don't see how it CAN'T be. this relationship is clearly the heart of the movie - if it's already emotional in this scene #then they've got to pay that off at the end!!! it's the law!!! otherwise things will just fall flat. i believe in u movie don't let me down

AWH... I'm skipping through Roier's QSMP Day 1 VOD because I'm looking for a specific thing, and I just noticed that when Jaiden stands in front of the group to do her introduction and her mic isn't working, Mariana laughs (not in a mean way, I laughed too) and Roier immediately smacks him and tells him off for laughing.

[Timestamp ~36m 50s, volume warning for Quackity's awful mic]

It's such a little thing, but I think it's really sweet in retrospect, especially considering how Roier and Jaiden have become such good friends in recent weeks :')

#i talk #qsmp talk #legitimately though I frickin adore Roier and Jaiden's friendship IT'S SO SWEET THEY'RE SUCH GOOD FRIENDS... #Jaiden was so nervous the first few days of QSMP and she talked about how she was too anxious to talk to people she didn't know #So this Egg event really helped her (and a lot of other people too) #It gave everyone a chance to make friends / bonds with people they might not have interacted with as much otherwise #it's just really sweet #I've got a special place in my heart for Jaiden I like her a lot #I used to watch her animations a bunch because my little cousin loves her #then I just kinda stopped because I don't watch Youtube creators much and my memory is awful #But QSMP made me start watching her again #and I found out all the stuff she's had to go through and I watched her videos where she talks about more serious stuff / her personal life #and like not to sound parasocial or whatever but my ''protective parental instinct'' went nuts after hearing all that #she's been through the wringer but it seems like she's doing a lot better #she's really funny and cool #but social anxiety is still a nightmare #I'm really glad she got Roier as her Egg partner -- he's so friendly and nice I think it really helped her relax a lot #and she's actually learning more Spanish despite saying she had 0 Spanish knowledge whatsoever when joining the server!!! #Idk man I'm just really proud of everything everyone's been doing on the server #and I'm really proud of Quackity for bringing people together like this. It's amazing #I love him so much and I'm so grateful this server exists. #First and Best Multilingual server baby!!! #Anyways I forgot how bad Quackity's mic sucked from literally everyone else's perspectives on Day 1 LMFAO #Roier specifically says ''Don't laugh!'' and ''Give [her] a pass!'' (for the mute issue) #alright I added a clip I can't not put a clip for this

Kia has decided to retire her winter wardrobe all over my everything

#kiadanta #my cats #ragdoll #cat #the fluff heap in the last picture is what i brushed from her yesterday and today #it seems to be working though!! i can pick her up and only have a 30% opacity fur coating on me afterwards #instead of the 80% it was at the start of yesterday #I'm glad shes receptive to being bribed with treats to be wetted down and brushed extensively for such long sessions #she has a good time with everything except belly brushing #which i have to do much more coaxing for #but with treat bribery i can recall her to the brushing spot pretty much instantly whenever she starts to wander off #and while she doesnt like her coat being sprayed directly she's fine with me cupping water in my hands and wiping it on her #i find it's much much easier to brush her when she's damp #otherwise the fur is all so stupidly fine it just floats away and i cant get much of the loose stuff onto the brush at all. just goes whoosh #summer shedding be like that

the fact that ophelia is on stage and hears all of “to be or not to be” already makes me scream sob foam at the mouth etc. but what if hamlet knew she was there and was speaking the monologue to her. just venting to his friend. there would probably need to be a few cuts for it to make sense but i cannot stop thinking about this now

#i love when productions emphasise their relationship beyond whats in the text #like the andrew scott version with ophelia comforting hamlet in act one #that was good shit #like!!!! #we need to see their relationship as it was before the play in some capacity #otherwise hamlet just seems like an asshole #hamlet #hamlet prince of denmark #ophelia #shakespeare #willy shakes

Musical Touken Ranbu: Gou on Stage ~ Satomi Hakkenden; New Edition english sub

At long long last I am able to present you the subtitles for the senshuuraku of Goumyu! After a very turbulent year, I'm glad to be lowkey picking up subtitling again. For this performance, though, I won't be able to do a tl notes file. If I were fair to myself, I'd allow myself to write my grievances with what Goumyu's plot does to what had been established for Kogitsunemaru and Mikazuki when those are relevant, but if I were fair to you all, I wouldn't give you a file that's 90% complaining and 10% actual notes or background.

Don't let my grievances distract from the performance though, it's still genuinely fantastic even if the theming choices may be painful to me. Especially Oodenta is fantastic. Goodness gracious.

Keep in mind that this is only the subtitle file, timed and tled to the DMM senshuuraku. The archive version will have a talk at the start, so the starting times of the subs will have to be delayed accordingly.

Download the subs for Goumyu here!

#gou on stage #goumyu #shinpen satomi hakkenden #touken ranbu #toumyu #Water's translations #I may not be able to do a tl notes file in good faith #but in perhaps slightly more neutral faith- if it is wished for- I could still write the #“how goumyu deconstructs Kogi's themes and generalises them/hands them to others” essay #I'm especially mad about the omote/ura thing #and the way mukau tsuchioto seems to be invoked #as well as the subtle nagoritsuki #ngl goumyu is THE reason why I dread the upcoming myu with Mika without Kogi #closely followed by TKO #anyway yes Tamazusa!Oodenta can step on me #and goumyu is a lovely meta-commentary on what it means to put on a stage performance #it works really well with toumyu's themescape otherwise it just. chooses to Undo Kogi (hyperbolically worded) #it also hooks into and contextualises TKO further-- which is part of the problem (Sui...) #ANYWAY. DUE TO NO KOGI I SHALL BE DOING TSUWA NEXT #WILL ALSO SERVE AS GREAT PREP FOR THE NEW MYU FOR EVERYONE INTERESTED #if I can make even a single person see what I saw in Toumyu (in general but also for KogiMika up to Kotobuki-) I'll be very happy

sometimes I think about the fact that bacta lost his virginity to tryst's sister. who looks enough like him that they easily pass for each other when they swap clothes. *touches ground gingerly* something psychosexual happened here. (good for rendezvous honestly it isn't her fault her brother is too emotionally dense and/or dysfunctional to get in there.) and then the next morning he found out the first person he was ever in love with probably isn't dead after all and never contacted him. it's a lot, to be a bacta in this world. single father despite having three co-parents, harried husband and grieving widower who's never once been married but is sometimes for sure divorced, teenage boy at his first real party, 'as your doctor I feel compelled to point out -- okay, that's, you're doing it anyway, sure, why not ', haunted veteran at the tender age of 17, owner of what must be the most common face across the galaxy, parentified oldest sibling despite being the youngest adult on the crew, sole qualified clipboard holder....... he's somehow doing it all at the same time and he's doing it on phindar, while making cupcakes

#'I have lived with a valentine for five years' he says in the voice of a man desperately trying to make this marriage work by will alone #campaign star wars #bacta #bactatryst #is that the ship name? I feel like I've seen that around it seems right #I feel so free in terms of campaign star wars ships honestly it's the only taste I've ever had of the peace of being a multishipper #zeblue is way too intense and weird and fucked up for me to wish it on anyone else to get involved in that (affectionate) but otherwise... #it's all good baby. no wrong answers here. is this why multishippers seem so chill you guys have escaped samsara I guess #anyway I love bacta with my whole heart. he tries so hard and it matters so much #even when it doesn't matter at all it matters so much #rendezvous looked at mr bacta 'black widow' mynock and was like 'that sign can't stop me I'm a valentine I can't read' and she was RIGHT TO

Astarion alone meets the other spawn and again, the scene is different. He immediately tells them Cazador intends to sacrifice them.

#I have already found some of these scenes for the other companions... so I will be posting those as well #we can almost never make choices in these scenes...but it's not always super interesting... #sometimes they just say the dialogue they would otherwise say and the scene simply plays without choices #but there are usually some small unique moments and lines of dialogue so cool to experiment with this #bg3 #bg3 mine #video #links #youtube #baldur's gate 3 #astarion #dalyria #pale petras #my post #my posts #Youtube #bg3 spoilers #I can't wait to play the companion origins because I suspect that this is how scenes will play out there #and it seems like in moments where player choice is removed and he is already on a good path ... he makes far more good guy decisions #which makes sense for scenes where companions are played as origins because they have to get that character development on their own
