i wish i could take the time to parse through my taylor swift is/isn't a gay icon thoughts on here but i fear people on this website don't know how to behave

#like she isn't a gay icon. but she is a lesbian icon? but like in different ways than gay icons have historically been gay icons #basically what i'm trying to say is that her status as a lesbian icon has literally nothing to do with her interactions with the lesbian #community. like i don't feel particularly revered or nurtured by her in the way someone like gaga has taken the time to #actually sit with and deliberately cater to gay culture for example #like it's different. #and almost entirely fandom-led #whether taylor is actually queer is also irrelevant to this #am i making any sense? #like okay i think you could argue she did a little bit of it in 2019 but we all know how that felt/came across #she's better at being a gay icon when she's explicitly not including the queer community in her work or acknowledging them in any way #because it's literally not of her own volition #and i'm honestly not convinced it's an aspect of her art or fanbase she considers #sometimes it feels like it actively makes her uncomfortable #and yet she really has become entrenched in modern day lesbian pop culture iconography in these last few years #anyway this isn't me Saying Anything. i'm just thinking about it #vi is typing...

Getting stuff out of my system so maybe I can sleep. So obviously I loved The Giggle and loved the Toymaker, but as a Thoschei shipper I can't express how important it is to me how impersonal the Toymaker was about the whole thing and while my dreams of old men making out have not been realied, the ghost of the Master hanging over the episode really emphasised that. Like, welcome home cheater jokes are great and I was getting lowkey irritated by how both the fans and the writers were making ALL of the Master's actions about the Doctor.

But I was also worried that with a campy game loving villain that would also have a love hate obsession with and resentment for the Doctor, RTD would basically say behold the Master only +++ this obviously had nothing to do with CC giving the Doctor a literal speech about being better than the Master introducing a Dia de los Muertos villain that has soooo much history with the Doctor but is also soooo very powerful and then reiterating that the Master hates themself and only wants to be the Doctor but can't because of essentialism posing as existentialism. nothing whatsoever.

But no. Again, I am a bit tired of the Master being presented mainly as not-Doctor and I do think that if Ten didn't timelock the Tardis, they wouldn't have chosen their pet planet specifically, but compare Saxon's No. This is my turn. Revenge. Best. Served. Hot. to the Toymaker's cold Best of three. Compare the Master drawing pleasure from playing Satan the accuser about humans-turned-toclafane to the Doctor specifically because it's their pet species to the Toymaker being himself attracted to humans because of their nature sth sth Johan Huizinga sth sth homo ludens and play as the foundation of culture sth sth 2001: SO with bone and ball sth sth murder as kickstarter of culture and play as kickstarter of culture. Look at Ten's addendum of If that's what you want to the offer he makes the Master in s3, emphasising that he wants to understand what is it that the latter is after, and at Fourteen's certainty that the Toymaker really is only after games.

Don't get me wrong, I'm far from throwing monogamy at either the Doctor or the Master and they probably both made out with the Toymaker, both individually and menage a trois. But if after literal weeks of holding my breath for an actual cameo I leave the episode fully sated after a gold tooth and laughing sounds and people from outside my Davy Jones' Locker stuck ghost ship notice it too, then I'd say RTD did some really good job hanging the Master's ghost over the story. And that was not just to fan serve. It also made a point about the differences between those relationships.

Thinking about the concept of Memetic Hazards and Memetic Weaponry in the SCP-verse. Thinking about the Antimemetics Division. About living ideas; ideas that feed and propagate and multiply and evolve.

Thinking about Gods; the stories we tell that influence our behavior, these narratives that shape the logic behind personality. The spirits that needn’t be real for horrors to be committed in their name.

Thinking about the parasitic worm of Fascism working its way through Civilization, finding itself fat and comfortable both in the hallucinogenic kaleidoscope of Hinduism and the austere purity of Protestantism.

Thinking about Snow Crash; the origin of the term Avatar in its modern usage, about the villain who weaponized language to hijack people’s nervous systems with gospel and computers.

About the holographic model of the cosmos. The holographic model of the mind. The natural laws as a kind of operating system for reality. The implications of miracles in such a context; what nature of being undermines the code.

Living Ideas. Gods that cannot die, because they were never alive, but are like Life, living as a signal in the air, a song or a story; a pattern of lights, the printed page, the phone; Viruses in the Operating System of Civilization. Self-propagating, mutating, evolving.

I dunno. I can’t find the right words to express it. But. There’s a. Pattern. There’s a signal in the static. I can hear it, but I can’t pick the notes apart. But. There’s an Insight, wedged into the crack. There’s something True lodged in there.

I’ll sleep on it. That usually helps.

Am I the only one who thought the The Captain becoming Kitty’s Fairy Godmother in the panto kinda showed Kitty’s relationship not just with him but with Mary? Like Fanny having to double up (even though there were “extra” roles like Buttons which could have probably been removed) shows there is a gap left behind by Mary. Furthermore, had Mary been there, she would have been cast as the Fairy Godmother as she is the most motherly (nylkies and all that). So The Captain stepping in shows that he’s now that support for Kitty and that he’s her best friend and I love them <3

just had an oh shit fuck realization rope is pulling him down and ed killed his did. my strangle him with a rope that’s gotta mean something right? something something childhood trauma and guilt ed killing his dad still haunts him and even in his dreams where he is being killed it’s with rope because he thinks he deserves to be killed in the same way he killed that awful man because he is also a monster (or maybe i’m just reaching idk)

can't explain it properly unfortunately, but

something about Meli's fire being connected to life and the world in general with how often her butterflies are found and how often they are next to campfires

something about how the theme of her character is life and hope and her being a fire (or rather a spark) in the darkness

"Go away. Quit staring. You guys are starting to annoy me.

...At least you're kinda cute."

Day 12 of Piktober was Crossover. I am not participating too heavily in the event (as I do not have the brain for it this year), but I did wanna get in a couple days, one of which is today's prompt.

This is Tsubakura Enraku from Len'en Project, a Touhou inspired work where just about everyone's gender is left up to player interpretation. I have a whole Len'en/Pikmin AU in my head, but for now this piece will work as a clue of what to expect were I to ever go any further with it.

Tsubakura themself though is...a poor choice for a Pikmin protagonist lol. They're too lazy. They are funny at least.

#len'en #len'en project #len'en art #pikmin #pikmin art #ppiktober2023 #tsubakura enraku #blue pikmin #i have no idea what to call this au lol #Tsubakura is like a weird foil character to Olimar once put in the same universe #they're a renown supergenius #he's your average delivery guy #they're a complete asshole #he's one of the nicest characters I've ever met #put them in a survival horror situation #where they have to rely on cute alien creatures #(that may or may not the best of intentions for them when you really think about it) #he gets attached and is awed by everything #they find them annoying and just gives up #am i making any sense? #I hope so #I like Tsuba but man would PNF-404 not be fun for them #which checks out considering Len'en plans to make their life about as hellish as Olimar's from the looks of things #...also they eat soap and ink #thank you for listening to me ramble internet

While I’m thinking about identity n shit I trust genderqueer ppl and other trans people doing Weird Shit with their genders to refer to me with gendered terms infinitely more than cis ppl (and honestly most binary trans ppl)

Like if a demigirl or gender-fluid or genderqueer or whatever person refers to me as a “girl” I automatically assume they mean it in some inherently queer, gender fuckery way. If a cis person referred to me like that, I automatically assume they mean they think I Am A Girl And Nothing More

okay so. taps microphone.

basil is not dendro-coded at all to me. if he’s dendro because he knows knowledge considered “forbidden” (the incident), then so many characters in genshin would be dendro. childe, wanderer, albedo, etc. would all be dendro because they know forbidden knowledge and/or are connected/have gone to the abyss once. dendro is not knowing something, rather it is seeking out the knowledge of something—forbidden or not. this ties well with how the characters are either scholars seeking out knowledge, or professionals at their field due to them seeking it out. we can see this with the sumeru characters! especially those in one of the 6 darshans (tighnari being in amurta which seeks out knowledge about biology and medicine, al haitham being in haravatat which seks out knowledge about ancient runes and linguistics, and kaveh being in kshahrewar which seeks out knowledge about technology and architecture). while we do see those of other visions be part of darshans, it is the level of dedication to the pursuit of knowledge that makes them dendro. we see how dedicated kaveh is to architecture, as well as how tighnari uses his knowledge to aid others through medicine (and also is able to help use during the AQ where we passed out due to the incense).

knowing something doesn’t equate to seeking out the knowledge of something. basil being the only one other than sunny to know the events of the incident does not make him dendro. being knowledgeable does not make you dendro either—because if it does, other characters like lisa, for example, would be dendro.

#OMORI #BASIL OMORI #OMORI BASIL #genshin au #i keep seeing dendro basil and going #errrrrrmm… guys…. #dendro isn’t knowing something it’s more of WANTING TO KNOW SOMETHING #knowing something =/= seeking out something #which we see in most dendro characters #and yes #while it make be argued that basil’s knowledge of flowers makes him dendro #bear in mind that knowldge doesn’t make someone dendro #also it reduces his character to his like of flowers 😭 #just like how saying he’s dendro because he knows the incident therefore he knows forbidden knowledge #reduces him to his involvement in the incident #am i making any sense?

It's interesting how our relationship wants change with time,

As a teen, all i wanted was a cuddling partner.

But now it's all about paisa, gaadi, mehenga ghar.

I need a man to give me all that

honestly i truly cant understand why so many ppl are surprised about variations of coquette (mystic, classic, bubblegum, etc) and how can they all be the same subculture, as if thats weird or an exeption when its usually the norm. like, just to compare it to similar subcultures, for example lolita or gyaru, have multiple very different sub styles that fit into the the subculture itself; in gyaru for example you have himegyaru, kogal or rokku gyaru, and for lolita you have deco lolita, classic, sailor or gothic juts to name a few
