The inherent romanticism of constantly chasing after the one person who is everything you think you need to be, while they’re chasing after you for the exact same reason, when you two are polar opposites.
Can you imagine being two halves of the same whole the way Katsuki is Victory and Izuku is Hope and together they make the heart of a hero? Constantly being inspired and driven to do and be better because your other half already is and you can’t be left behind?
Relatable. (Now give me a Glen Powell interview that is basically like that Chris Evans cover story from ten years ago where they got wasted and the interviewer went on a meet-cute pub crawl with him on GQ's dime while fantasizing about him taking her to the Oscars.)
I lost a friend today. He was a crust punk like me, really hardcore. His death is a bit of a gutpunch for me. I made this stencil, anyone that feels like it can spread it around.
Rat was always a menace, let's keep him around as one.
like i understand starguardians are supposed to be anime and cute and whatever the fuck but league already doesnt have women that leave the mold or leaves the mold without having necessarily conventionally attractive traits (like two of the older women having close to no wrinkles and curvy bodies) and idk man, i know its not that important but it feels weird removing all the seams and gaps from orianna even if she’s not a real human (without mentioning now she just looks like riven with a dress LMAO)
who is at the wheel in this fandom keeping it from going offroad?
And a similar anon ask: who would you elect as president of this fandom?
An excellent question, anon 🤔
Now, I am but a baby here in the tumblrverse and therefore have yet to meet many of the lovely humans in our cm fandom
That being said I would nominate @criminalskies
Aside from being the kindest soul who’s so super supportive and never fails to make me smile, I think they keep us all sane and tbh would be level-headed enough to run our batshit lil fam/country
As an American, I declare that Rome would win the popular vote AND destroy the electoral college
About the Lula comment: I do wish he was doing more for the situation (trying to send help for Palestinians and actively going against Israel) but honestly the fact that he publicly recognizes it as a genocide of Palestinian people and not a "war" is already tons better than a lot of world leaders🙃 also with the way Israel is blocking any kind of aid trying to get into Gaza(most definitely with help from the US) I'm worried there might not be that much that can actually be done right now beyond condemning it... It's so frustrating.
I will admit my bar for lula is quite high lol in the same way that my bar for bernie is on the ceiling because they're generally so much better than most people.
but yes definitely lula is a real one and is far better than most world leaders on most issues, but definitely on palestine.
it's the us that I hold most in contempt (I mean along with israel ofc) and I am damn lucky I live in delaware where my vote for president does not count at all* because I will not vote for joe biden. I desperately hope that other world leaders step up like lula.
if I had a shot every time someone called this a war I'd be dead from alcohol poisoning three times over
*anyone who has ANYTHING to say to me, learn the fuck about the electoral college already and also respect that I know a little bit about the political workings of my state.
if you were working on something and you told us what it was about, and we just shat on it without even seeing what it looked like, you’d feel bad, wouldn’t you? i ask because I’ve been seeing that a lot lately. people judging things before they even get to know them . It just ain’t right, you know?
I gave the first movie a fair chance though by watching it. My criticisms don't come from a place of ignorance.
Regarding your other point, I've received plenty of criticisms from colleagues, professors, bosses or customers on my work throughout my years as a career artist. Regardless if it's "fair" or not, do you think I'd have made it this far if I weren't able to bear that and still keep moving forward? It comes with the territory and if you cannot take the heat, you get out of the kitchen.
Life is a struggle. You pick the cross you're willing to carry and you haul it by God's grace for as long as you can go. That's how I've managed to keep going. The abrasive honesty or even outright insults I've received over the years at least give insight on how I can do better.
Of course harsh criticisms and words hurt. I'm only human. I feel pain like anyone else. But life's too short to get hung up on what other people think of you. So long as you take the criticisms that ring true, apply them and just keep working on improving yourself, that's already a step in the right direction. And any professional worth their salt know this.
As the saying goes:
I don't fear failure. It's a good teacher so long as you're willing to listen and never give up!
