PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS

PUSSY.

BIG FLAPPY WET JESUS PUSSY.

JESUS' SOPPING WET PUSS-PUSS

[Edited months after posting to discourage catholics from replying to this post after finding that both the nice and much funnier not-nice responses to this were equally bad for my mental health. I didn't wanna delete it bc I was quite proud of some of my responses and it helps to have a visual reminder of why I left an abusive organization. Also, this means that any catholic who has reblogged this in an attempt to convert me, has now reblogged a post that, if clicked, links back to this. Use MY post for propaganda, will you!]

Thinking about how it was never made clear to me in Catholic school exactly WHY Jesus died for our sins. I just remembered that I was literally never clear on who the dying helped??

I've heard theories as an adult, but basically what I'm saying is pointless martyrdom seems a little pointless, and also with enough propaganda the big logical gaps in a belief system get really hard to see. Especially if questioning anything is blasphemy.

I would have gotten in so much trouble for insisting the teacher explain how Jesus helped us by being tortured to death by Romans even when God could have prevented it! God sent his only Son, they would have said! Be grateful, they'd say! Be guilty! Stop asking why he did that!!!

#original #religious trauma #<- what's up guys why did he do that??? for real i was raised catholic and it is FUCKING UNCLEAR but also the basis of a huge chunk of #my childhood?? like WHY though? my friend madeleine said it was related to animal sacrifices with the lamb of god stuff and all #this was NEVER mentioned in my school. i thought he was the lamb bc he followed god but maybe not #no wonder my impulse as a person is to constantly sacrifice myself unnecessarily #i think martyrdom is a bad gift. but i guess torture your son to death or whatever dude. but it's weird to do that and say it was for me #like...... thanks?? you're literally omnipotent but this is like the worst possible version of a cat leaving a dead mouse on my bed #Christianity #thank goodness i was too much of a fag to stay. i was so unhappy there. #the good place actually addresses a lot of my issues with Christianity as a whole while also not being all about Christianity #like what does it mean to condemn a person capable of change to eternal hell?M #*hell?? #the good place #god pays the devil's rent y'all. like in that post that made my long beautiful essay about this irrelevant by #summing it up with 'girl they are in cahoots.' i think about that post all the fukn time nothing i can write longform is as punchy as that

i would be such a good monk or something or idk, just that my ability to ignore hunger in favor of whatever i am hyperfixating on is unparalleled at least within the sample size of my social circles

Can we talk about The Dying Swan moment in Coda? As someone who was once a very serious ballerina, I need to talk about the Dying Swan. Here's your context --

CHAKOTAY: Harry's clarinet solo was okay. I could have done without Tuvok's reading of Vulcan poetry. But the highlight of the evening was definitely Kathryn Janeway portraying the Dying Swan. JANEWAY: I learned that dance when I was six years old. I assure you, it was the hit of the Beginning Ballet class.

Have you seen The Dying Swan? It is dramatic.

Here, take a minute:

First of all, this dance is much too advanced for a six-year-old, even if they’re doing it in demi pointe. (Six-year-olds emphatically should not be in pointe shoes btw.) The dance is almost entirely bourees and arm movements done to very subtle musical cues, not the foundational ballet moves typically taught in Beginning Ballet.

This is a very vulnerable, dramatic dance that is effective because of its subtleties. The performer would need to embody that vulnerability in some way for a convincing performance. It's short, but it's a solo piece -- all eyes on you. I mean, it was choreographed for a prima ballerina, BUT THAT'S NOT MY POINT

Can you imagine our unflappable Captain Janeway willingly getting in front of her crew to do this ballet? I get that it’s thematically relevant to the plot of Coda, but since Janeway is only vulnerable in front of her crew when it means putting herself in harm’s way, it seems like a wild decision. She tends to hold herself apart from her crew, maintaining the professional distance of the captain. Further, when she does any creative pursuit, it is almost always in private, since her sister was the artist in the family and she was the scientist. As a captain, she commands Voyager in a much different way than she would as a dancer with this piece. I'm not saying she never shows vulnerability because she definitely does, but not necessarily in this way. Then when she talks about it with Chakotay, she just casually brushes it off with a laugh like no big deal.

There’s also the question of costume – would she have gone full tutu? Done it in her Starfleet uniform? An impeccable yet flow-y white suit? She does get into costume and command a performance in Bride of Chaotica!, but Coda is still kind of early days for our captain. Arachnia aligns more with what we know about Janeway's character.

Granted, it is Chakotay laying down these complements about her dancing ability and he is clearly biased. To be fair, Neelix does too before they leave in the shuttle. If she did this dance and performed it poorly or amazingly, I feel like the crew would look at her a bit differently afterwards.

Canonically she did The Dying Swan, but I certainly have trouble picturing it happening.

#does everyone let it slide because she gets mind killed a bunch of times and attends her own funeral? #this throw away line has been living rent free in my mind for months now #coda is also a ballet term fun fact #star trek voyager #coda #Captain Janeway #this death doesn't mean anything though because no one else is saved so not janeway self-sacrificing goals #yes yes they probably just picked the first artistic performance with death in the title cause it's thematically relevant #i've thought about it much more than a normal person probably should #No one said I was a good ballerina but I did it for a long time #may or may not have filmed a video about this in my cosplay for a different platform #maybe have been sitting on it cause of editing and weird dudes being into me like why no #also let tuvok read his poetry i bet it's great #alien grim reaper dad is a great concept very creepy bring him back for more angst #just a little insane about the dying swan don't mind me #also insane about coda and voyager and janeway in general ok you got me #meta #I was falling asleep on the couch but then I had to rant about coda I’m sorry

Why are you fully rendering fanart for something you hate so much why are you fully "redesigning" the entire cast of something you loathe why waste your time if you truly despise it and everyone and thing involved

#hazbin hotel is tge only thing ive seen this happen in #half the “redesigns” also reek of not even opening a wiki page #like thats just a whole ass different dude #cimpletely devoid of intentional design choices made to link them to the setting #just make an oc and dont weirdly try and ride a popular thing you dont like #vivziepop lives rent free in your head #like dont tag it with the same shit fans tag actual things with thats just bad tagging etiquette #its just annoying trying to find good fanart and stumbling upon the most Annoying People #like “IM so much BETTER AT DESIGN” ignoring basic things like #style difference changes made for animation and basic cohesive schemes so everyone fits #just because you dont like the style doesnt mean its inherantly bad #idk im annoyed #if you dont like something thats cool #dont be a bitch about it and shove yourself into fan spaces to loudly complain and declare yourself arbiter of quality #hazbin hotel

OKAY MY NEWFOUND AGENT BISHOP TMNT AUDIENCE. ANY THOUGHTS ON WHY THERE ARE

two of them?????

#or at least why he had time to change his jacket to a coat in the middle of a fucking invasion. #dude's got his priorities when it comes to actual alien threat knocking on earth's door in every iteration huh #anyway my theory: those are 2 diff bishops. one may be a clone. the 1st one references 2012 version more while the 2nd is straight up 03 #so i think there is smth up with that. also 1st one's face is catlike like in ff. and both ff and 12 are good bishops! im onto something! #also the headphones but s4 bishop03 battle armor look also had them i think #anyway the person on rise team who saw an alien invasion story and decided to insert not 1 but 2 bishop cameos in there is a genius. #like i feel this decision on every level. there are not enough xenophobic (or not so) fuckers out there. #i expected his cameo ever since i read the synopsis (tho also on the future part bc ff rent free in my head) and i was Not Disappointed. #you do not want to know the level of insanity i instantly reached when i first saw rise movie and got to the second one. #hell im still not over the fact they gave him WORDS #fucking printing those on a tshirt cause THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE WIN #agent bishop #agent john bishop #tmnt bishop #rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rise of the tmnt #rottmnt the movie

Have some tact here his girlfriend is super dead and you’re kinda being a dick about it! #cy art #cy fanart #also I know Mimi is typically portrayed with her hair down but the ponytail just felt Right ya dig?

[vizybs]

a little rant this is not targeted at any specific users, i quite literally cannot name users who have done this off the top of my head but, i see it happen a bit too often so here we are.

guys i beg of you… stop making our little demon brat “feral” it is weird he is a passive aggressive well spoken little guy who has murder tendencies when provoked or when he assumes he’s been wronged okay?

Damian’s not some animal they put on a leash and go “aw shucks no biting!!” —absolutely not, he is a sophisticated little brat who takes action when he feels he needs to and he must be respected! Like seriously the lowkey jokes at him bein feral make me wanna start swingin hands

This is not pointing at any specifc fics or posts btw its just… no. its jus disappointing his character has been boiled down to this sometimes hes not even amongst my top fav characters in dc but i still feel so wronged whenever i see him being reduced to that.

Theres a thing about growing up and learning to ignore things you dont like, but i just.. this is like. gross. I wish people viewed characters outside ‘haha mom friend’ ‘haha feral one’ ‘the sad one!!’ because most of the time they start putting characters in these boxes so often they end up entirely misinterpreting them and their whole character w/o even noticin.

Yes Damian tends to be the one shown as the first to throw hands but that doesnt mean he is the ‘feral one’—a brat and a menace sure but he doesnt act without reason, he has a very streamlined thought process and is an intelligent little dude whose figuring this new world out, albeit absolutely not in the best way but thats what makes characters interesting!!

Please dont take characters at their face value and make that their entire personality. Damian is arguably one of the most complex and well written characters in the batfamily—please dont water him down just to make him ‘feral’ for a half-baked joke

#its pr weird dont make him out to be somekinda animal w rabies #hes a cool little autistic dude who knows how to stab things and likes to use his abilities #no shame is practicing hobbies man #but serious sometimes i see something were he is only written as ‘feral’ and my blood boils #its just #bad #not namin specific ppl but i see things like that sometimes as jokes and usually ignore it but i dunno #i jus dont like it. #oh yea also hes literally middle-eastern and asian so making him act ‘feral’ come from me an asian person is extremely uncomfortable #sad to see my boy reduced to that #he isng even in like my top three but he lives rent free in my heart #damian al ghul #damian wayne #robin #batfam #batman

I am once again begging for the people who work on rwby to learn how to frame shit

Blake chews out Batman for acting like he's alone and then storms towards Arkham Asylum. She walks alone into darkness while he's bathed in warm light next to everybody else

It's so contradictory. If they wanted to properly frame this shit, it should be Blake with her friends and in the light because she's enlightened and Batman swathed alone in shadows. As is, this frames Batman in the right (which he is) and Blake as going crazy

Either the artists rebelled against this shit by weaponizing the framing, like the animators of rwby did multiple times, or everyone who works on rwby stuff gets overdosed on stupid juice

#rwde #seriously blake what in the absolute shit is wrong w you #batman has a legit concern of relying too much on an ability hes bound to lose and you somehow think thats a fear of being weak in general? #youve also known the dude for like. 3 hours under extremely unusual circumstances. you dont know shit abt who batman truly is #you are projecting so hard its making you look stupid #preachy prick #but seriously this is ridiculous. it has to be on purpose #there shouldnt be a way to fuck up this bad as a professional #THREE different dudes worked on the art. i refuse to believe it slipped everyones notice. there's just no way #also this is the exact same problem ive talked abt before w the framing of ruby yelling at qrow in v6 #rent composition 2 electric boogaloo

My best friend keeps floating the concept of us moving in together and I'm like. Desperately trying to find a nice way to say "That will end in murder-suicide, probably"

#Our autisms and like. Attachment styles clash so so so so so so so so fucking bad #Dude is VERY needy and sociable and I am the absolute polar opposite and tend to get mean when hovered around too much #2 bedrooms wouldn't even begin to be enough #Also he has a normal-ish sleep schedule and is very sensitive to noise whereas I am up til 6 am every night listening to albums or #on an endless rewatch loop of BRBA/BCS while I draw #Honestly it COULD work in theory with proper boundaries and I can't pretend I'm not tempted because it's like 'ohh we could afford to #maybe rent a small house type situation that would be nice'. This is the devil talking

It's 22° out give him a fuckin break he's sat in the sun all day at least have the decency to not give the guy heatstroke

#my boss just. hes not the worst guy but hes so dismissive of poverty and like. #dude youre middle management and you rent off your mum cause you Also cant afford anything else. have some compassion #hes just an older dude with a wee dug who chatted to me over soft drinks and chocolate hes daein no harm to anybody grow up

Modern AU Sophie DOESNT get old-cursed modern Sophie fucks up her knee badly enough to need a cane for a while, decides this means she doesn’t look attractive anymore, immediately starts wearing flannels and jeans everywhere since why not, she’s not hot anyway (Sophie is no longer conventionally attractive and LIVING for it she has grass stains all over herself) comes to realize in the middle of it all that she’s bisexual, falls in love (irritated) with Howl, philosophy/English lit phd student who has never thought he might be wearing Too many accessories (he is high femme and actively Into Rugby and he sees no issue with this and also thinks you too should not see any issue with this) and then three months into their relationship Sophie realizes she’s actually just butch.
