it's the "pippa" to "pip" to "sarge" to "trouble" pipeline for me

#i know sarge is THE nickname #but trouble is so cute to me #especially because the first time ravi uses it is after pip lied and said she was dropping the project #and then ravi figured out the truth and came back #he really said “this thing you're doing will get you into trouble but i'm going to get into trouble right alongside you” #and i think that's beautiful #there are other nicknames as well but trouble is always my favourite and i hope we get it in the show #ravi singh #pippa fitz amobi #pipravi #pip x ravi #a good girls guide to murder #good girl bad blood #as good as dead #a good girls guide to murder tv show #agggtm #ggbb #agad #agggtm tv show #holly jackson

i found a super old drawing tablet which, naturally, ended with me drawing women all day

#i'm not super proud with the 2003 april drawing but that's the first thing i drew so i was getting used to the whole thing #i LOVE this drawing tablet i am definetly going to use it for mspaint drawings #i'm surprised it works because i think the most recent thing it said it could work with is a windows 7 and like #i don't have that! #it's cool i have many fun doodles i also drew #dunno if i'll share #depends on how many doodles i make later #the first drawing was inspired by a transfem rise leo fic i read #it isn't perfectly written but HEY the coming out scene made me feel things!!! #ESPECIALLY the pronoun switch with “so she ran away” MAN!!!!! #this isn't a recreation of a scene (there isn't really any context to it?) i just wanted to draw my favourite girls together #speaking of i need to draw the aprils more #i LOVE mutant mayhem april i am not going to apologise for the woman i become when tales of the tmnt releases #tmnt leo #transfem leo #because. yes #tmnt april #april o'neil #rottmnt leo #rottmnt april o'neil #2003 april o'neil #tmnt #rottmnt #tmnt 2003 #mspaint #i hope the quality isn't too destroyed for these because i will cry

said to my counsellor that i wasnt built for friendship because everyone always eventually just. stops speaking to me and she went “ok why do you think that is?” and then when i finished my dumb sad list she went “ok so maybe you aren’t good at friendship” and i. have never regretted spending £50 more in my life lol

#A RANT IN THE TAGS MY GOD I DIDNT EVEN REALISE I AM WRITING THIS WARNING RETROSPECTIVELY #£50 to feel like never trying to speak to anyone again or forge any connections THANKS RUTH #Ruth remember when I said that every friendship I’ve had I’ve never truly known if it’s a friendship or if it’s one sided #remember when I told you that my friend groups always had people who had a favourite and I was never the favourite #remember when I told you that several friend groups have disbanded but not really they actually just made new spaces without me? #remember that? remember my trauma? remember? #because I DO!!! #I was not born to have friends I don’t think #I can’t even make friends with other autistic people or other weird people or other queer people #I don’t even think I could make friends with a clone of myself #this is so guy wrenchingly isolating lol #like girl what do you want from me? keep everyone at arms length like I used to? #try not to let myself get attached to people in case they decide they don’t want to be close to me anymore? #please it is not great advice Ruth #THE WORAT PART is that I literally was like ‘I don’t message too much because I’m overbearing’ #and she asked where the proof was #and all I had was the complete dissolving of any relationship where I tried or tried too hard #so now I’m left in this confusing space of do I message too much or not enough because I have no happy medium #and she knows SHE KNOWS I also have energy issues and executive dysfunction stuff going on #and I know she is just trying to help and get me to think about this stuff #but it was just not the time lmao #finnie shouts into the void

Dungeon meshi is fun to me because I live in a country where you can go to an ostrich farm and ride and ostrich and pet and ostrich and then go to the restaurant and eat and ostrich. Also with crocodiles and zebra and giraffe and so on and so forth. So I've eaten a bunch of dope animals that I like and have met and I was talking to an Irish woman while in Canada and she had a crocodile leather handbag and I said "oh that's so cool, have you ever eaten a crocodile?" and she was genuinly so fucking confused. And I was like "in my country you can eat crocodiles. You go to a crocodile farm or preserve. They breed crocodiles for research and preservation and you can eat them. They're tasty" and she was HORRIFIED. Like how dare I eat a crocodile, no less a crocodile who's relatives I'd just seen swimming in a river. I'd held a baby crocodile and then hate a crocodile???? That's disgusting!!!! And her reaction never made sense to me cause her handbag was made of crocodile leather, so why wouldn't she want to know what it tastes like? Anyway Laios would totally go to farms like that and take a selfie with a Croc baby and then eat crocodile and have a great day out. Laios is you ever become real I will wine and dine you so well...

#My bestfriend said marcille should get over herself cause who wouldn't wanna eat a monster #So it's definitely cultural to where I live #Said friend also keeps cattle and her favourite food is steak #She's an expert in liking an animal and also eating it #Sometimes you wanna know what the animal you like tastes like #I wouldn't eat horse tho #And not cause I love them but because a lot of meds they take are bad for people #And like you're supposed to mark that in their passport #But I've seen first hand vets just not note it cause then the horse can't be used for meat later #I'm not taking that risk thanks l #dungeon meshi

character wrapped 2023 💥

tagged by @davidtennantpussytulpa ^-^ i didn't know how many to do so i copied tara and did top 10. i know the severance guys are Four Of Them but i can't separate them theyre all equally important to me

will graham (hannibal), em haywood (nope), aziraphale (good omens), mark & dylan & helly & irving (severance), hawkeye pierce (mash), martha jones (doctor who), ivan karamazov (the brothers karamazov), kim kitsuragi (disco elysium), stewy hosseini (succession), ruescott melshi (andor/rogue one)

i will tag... @fagician @britomart @libraryfag @roadwhores @majorbaby @globuspolski @hadleyfraserfaggot @tenderscience if u want to ^-^

#and now i will explain them all in detail #cos i started watching hannibal back in like. january or february and will immediately set up camp in my head and started to settle there #*I* pay rent to *HIM*. he lives there permanently. sweating and monologuing constantly #em was not only the character of 2022 but also of 2023 and of 2024 and the rest of the decade and all decades to come #she had such an impact on me keke palmer's performance will live with me forever and i love nope so fucking much #i almost didnt include her because nope was more of a last year obsession. but she lives on #aziraphale.........no comment #severance.......i love them all so much and at first i wanted just irving and then just helly and then i realise i cried over mark this week #and then i realised i couldnt possibly leave out dylan when hes probably my favourite character. so then i settled for all of them #hawkeye is my fucking wife. enough said #martha... well i knew i had to have a doctor who character. i thought maybe the doctor but then i thought their companions mean more to me #sometimes at least. i did have a fourteen icon for a while but then i was like but Donna..... and then i thought. well #these past few months at least martha jones has been eating away at my heart. i go batshit insane when i think about her #her impact. her grace. her power. so she had to go on the list.it was a toss up between her and donna for sure though #then i figured i had to include a karamazov since reading that book took up half of my year. and ivan was my favourite of the 3. so <3 #kim goes without saying. literally nothing to be said hes the character Of All Time. to me #stewy also goes without saying ive had so many Stewy Save Me moments since the beginning of season 4 all the way to the end of the year #i miss him every day. he is the moment. i wish there was more of him all the time #and the last one is a bit of a wildcard cos all my insanity abt melshi has been on my andor sideblog. #but rest assured ive been thoroughly Not Normal about him. he literally side appears in 4 episodes and has 11 total minutes onscreen #but i love him. so much. and hes occupied most of my thoughts since september. once again his impact his power his grace. his homosexuality #enough said. that's all. thanks for reading. this was a great year for autism and madness #tag game #🍪

[shaking and biting] but what does it MEAN. what does it SAY what is the THEME

#akkdlflf i watched this long lecture video abt austrian national identity and the researcher said 'the austrians are quite adept at #selling the austro hungarian monarchy back to tourists incl ones from former parts of the empire... but even in the imperial nostalgia they #don't want back multilingualism or multiculturalism or any of what it actually was' #(it was a lot abt the way in which austria deals with orban's hungary in and after the 2015 refugee crisis) #ajskgldo and that just made me think about... how pointless some things feel. both in fiction and in academic research #you CAN say meaningful things about almost any topic and with almost any argument! but in some strands of history trying to 'uncover events' #with no exploration of the context and what it all MEANS and what the things we think about it mean #is the most prevalent and popular type of research :/ like there's a reason i overrely on hamann's bio of rudolf because her central thesis #is that he wasnt a crazy murderer but someone with a forward-thinking political vision that went as far as suggesting a sort of 'proto-EU' #among other things #so like. she is looking at what it all MEANS!!! #and like. my favourite todolf fanfics are also like that 😂😭 perhaps not abt politics but about suffering and power dynamics and guilt #same for original fiction. i'm never happy if a book i'm reading isnt saying something #or then again - this is more personal pickiness but. they should also be saying something NEW AND INTERESTING #a lot of the time. sometimes if you have a fave trope you can just enjoy it over and over #but idk even tropey stuff can say things #ajlsldkfkf i'm just so tired of kitsch in all its forms and also of bad science

Been thinking about pacific rim lately and... do pilots know whose memories are whose. Do they ever forget what's theirs and what's not. Does one ever remember and the other doesn't. Like has one of then ever said "on my fifth birthday, my mom-" and without missing a beat the other goes "that's my birthday. On yours-" and the other one just smiles at them.

Where do the lines blur.

#I've been having pacific rim thoughts lately #Because my friend learned that it's my favourite movie #And she said “really? But it's just mechs fighting kaiju” #I just couldn't articulate all the thoughts this site and ao3 has given me about it #How do I explain coherently it's a movie about love #And also how terribly I want to have someone and we know each other so well that the only explanation is that we are mentally melded #She was also surprised when I said you basically have to squint to see any romance in the movie #We were talking about Raleigh and Mako specifically #Like yeah they love each other. But to see it as romantic you really do have to tilt your head a little bit #Not even getting into the little gay scientists lol #pacific rim

Art therapy is so fun because today I just drew pathologic fanart, and my therapist was like, "Awesome, so tell me about it"

#pathologic 2 #pathologic #artemy burakh #мор утопия #my post #art therapy #i spent a couple hours playing on my birthday recently and it just made me so happy #i had to explain to my therapist what the game was #at first she was like “are you sure you should be playing that?” #but then she started to get really excited when i told her about how ive been using it to help manage stress n shit #plus hyperfixation mode activated #my stress tolerance and ability to break down tasks has improved so much because of this game #its literally my favourite #sobbing crying #did i mention i love this game? #anyway she said it was very insightful and im so happy because all i had to do was be autistic for half a session #also no. you may not see the image #i didn’t have a reference so its off model lmaooo #may redo the concept on digital ::3

few things are as touching as the appreciation hardworking, heartfelt, passionate, dedicated young people express when you support them. sometimes this appreciation is shown by those young people sending you unedited footage of their professional wrestling ambulance matches and it fucking rules.

#[ whispers ] #mango brought to my attention a ugandan pro wrestling promotion fundraising for their first wrestling ring and i decided to reach out #to them because i made a post raising awareness on my wrestling sideblog. they asked me to record a video saying hello to a young lady #wrestler of theirs i said i'm a fan of. so she can record a video saying hello back to me! and then sent me exclusive footage of a match! #i cannot stress this enough: reach out to dreamers. reach out to the people making their dreams reality. to artists and musicians and #writers and people blogging about their cultures' food and their daily lived experiences and dedicating their lives to community outreach #and harm reduction and activism and rescuing animals and raising awareness. tell the people making what you love that you love it and #admire their hard work. thank the person bagging your groceries and driving your bus with a big smile. tell the makeup artist standing with #palestine openly what that means to you. one of my favourite authors is on tumblr and i'm reaching out to her after i read her new book that #just published. one of my friends became a well known poet in pakistan because a group of us all sent CDs of our spoken word poetry to each #other and made all of our friends listen. i'm friends with youtubers because i've been vocally supporting their videos since pre-YT or early #into their channels and have met up with some of them to hang out and talk shop. don't just cheer people on silently! let them know! #long post #sorry. overcome by my simple love for humanity in the midst of unfathomably dark times. it will happen again

another day of autism making me absolutely hilarious accidentally

#long story explanation in tags #i was at an event with a friend and i was borrowing her fancy shoes they had like a thin heel and i couldn’t balance well on them so #i went to the bathroom and i could hear my friend talking to some woman in the bathroom area #and i was struggling to literally not fall into the toilet because of these heels and anyway #after ​i walked out of the stall and said “it’s very difficult to urinate in heels“ and my friend did like the facepalm thing and the other #the other lady she was talking to made a weird face and left the bathroom and then my friend was just laughing hysterically for like 3 mins #and said i was her favourite person so i was just like oh? oh yeah okay cool yeah i’m just awesome? natural born comedian i guess even thoug #even though idk why it was so funny i was just making an observation but like ok i’ll take it #autistic community #actually autistic #asd community #asd memes #autism memes #autism humor

in therapy today i just talked about the dark urge and astarion and my therapist was elated about it. it was fantastic. “wow you’ve really been using this story and those characters to process things. that’s amazing!”

the era of being ashamed of my interests is over. it’s apparently Cool and Healthy to use fiction to cope. i wish i could tell fifteen year old me about this it would blow her mind

#she speaks #arctic plays bg3 #bad brains blogging #you’re gonna have to pry SFF from my cold dead hands because ‘this creature is not human but nonetheless a person’ is THE most #important thing ever actually #i love taking my feelings and experiences and externalising and concretising them through metaphor #my favourite thing about astarion is how he both has literal cptsd AND metaphorically through his vampirism #that fucking rules #also shoutout to another thing therapist said today: #she was originally sceptical of my potentially having autism #then she was like ‘ok you have some traits but you’re probably not diagnosable’ #then today she was like ‘you make so much sense when one thinks of you through the lense of autism’ #amen sister i’ve been right there with you #but now i’m getting my second assessment soon! which won’t change anything about me i am and will be ‘tism-y regardless #but it’s going to be interesting to see what happens #also i told her about my WISC scores and she was like ‘jesus christ tell them to evaluate you for adhd too’ so uhhh #they already screened me for that and i believe i tested negative but let’s see #the WISC score was why i was even referred for an assessment so

#this exchange is really heartbreaking to me and a great example as to why i think gina is more complex than she’s often given credit for #her vulnerability and her desire for love without strings attached really show why she is the way that she is for better and for worse #vanessa marcil really seems to understand her character and though i've said it before it bears repeating that she is a fantastic actor #am i saying this because i have been in gina's shoes in the past and even years later it still stings? maybe #but the fact that she can connect with me in so directly in such a brief scene makes her one of my favourite characters/actors on the show #beverly hills 90210 #gina kincaid #vanessa marcil #90s #season 10

realising something bad about someone that means the world to you should be illegal. id like to live blindly actually

#ive been tiptoeing around this realisation for a WHILE now but today was the first time i actually verbatim in my head #went 'i dont like living with my mum'. and the moment i thought it was like no nooononono lets NOT do that #like objectively my mum is my favourite person in the world and i love her more than every other person in my life combined #but LIVING with her in HER HOUSE is just not... it. and it makes me feel awful for even thinking it bc that's her biggest fear #that we're gonna grow up to have the same relationship that she had with her mum and that ISNT what's happening like i could never #be distant from my mum in fact the reason she has such a chokehold on me is BECAUSE there's so much love there #but it would still break her heart to know i felt this way and i just feel so shitty for it. but like? i CANT relax here #like the thing that made me think it this morning wasn't even an explosive thing like it usually is with her #like every shouting screaming argument we've had ive just taken it. but then this morning when nothing exceptional happened #i was just. done. so basically i told u guys she wanted me to hoover today and already yelled about it YESTERDAY which. whatever #and she goes out every thurdsay until lunchtime and i think ive said on here before that the days we're home alone are HUGE flashpoints #bc if she comes home and perceives that not enough chores have been done/one thing has been done wrong she just hits the ROOF #like her temper is entirely disproportional she gives the same energy for the washing up not being put away that another mum would #give for finding drugs in their kids room. ive truly never seen someone maintain a temper like that woman can it's actually impressive #so yeah she was gone this morning and it just always leaves me On Edge it's never a huge thing bc im not SCARED of her but im not relaxed #and i hoovered for an hour and washed up and then also dusted the stairs and did some other tiny irrelevant jobs #and my sister did fuck all. she pulled a sickie off work and stayed in bed while i fussed about what to do with the dogs and shit #and so when my mum came home ig i was expecting some sort of acknowledgement? like not a round of applause #bc obvs it's just chores and the hoovering she literally told me to do but when my sister had been SO unhelpful and it had been #SO on my mind for hours now i was just. waiting for something? and even i didnt know what so it's not even fair #but my mum came home and decided she was in a bad mood and she had a go at my sister for being lazy and not doing the chores she said #she'd do today and she DIDNT yell at me which she sometimes does just do if she's pissed at my sister. but she just got mardy with me? #like she got up and left to go watch TV in her room and i was like 'oh i can watch it with you?' bc sometimes when they row my mum #hints at me and her going somewhere else to bitch about my sister. but she just shook her head and snapped at me for some dumb shit #like TINY shit id missed and then wouldn't even spend time with me and i was just like. are you serious #and THAT was when i had the thought bc i was like there is actually no winning with her temper #and i can never fully relax around her because of it. even when we're getting on she is at any point seconds away from ripping my head off #and it's not nice being around someone like that ALL THE TIME. and i dont mind it when im at uni bc im at my own house in my own life #but when it's HER house and she makes it very clear that it's HER house and we need her and the car if we want to so much as LEAVE #then that's just not a fucking pleasant environment to be in? right? even if it is just me being a baby? ugh idk and i hate this

[chambers003]

one of the many, many things i love about doctor who is that the doctor is a respected and valued person who is 100% free to do what they like/come and go as they please. it’s so… like. you dont see many people speaking up about an alien being a trusted authority figure. or even many people trying to lock them up to study them/exploit their knowledge. when you do they’re shut down pretty quick or were under the influence of something/someone else.

they’re the president of the earth, which implies enough world leaders know about them and agreed to this, and of course they’re unit’s specialest little guy ever. it’s been shown multiple times it’s not even that hard for the general public to track information about the doctor down, and yet, no protest. if it’s happening, it’s all off-screen. it’s just a nice change of pace.

#it’s just. the classic ‘oooh something alien we gotta study it and blah blah whatever!!!1!!’ just. isnt present. it’s good #note: ive only seen new who idk what went on in classic who maybe they already did all that. #and havent read any books. #idk! be nicies if im wrong though #my post #doctor who #if i said that ‘if this show was american this would not be the case at all’ would you guys be mad #tbf i am not british or american. australia would also do something american because thats what we do. 😦 #the guy in ‘dalek’ was clearly meant to be a dickhead so his opinion’s immediately invalid #(the giggle spoilers next ->) #kate lethbridge-stewart was getting brain spiked so she Doesnt Count™️ #<- also blatant favouritism on my part #what i want to know is where was osgood. they’re awesome i love them she should’ve been there #this is off topic #they/she because theres 2 of them

[true-blue-sonic]

I read issue 63, and more unpopular opinions down the cut:

Well, let’s get the good things out of the way first. Silver truly wasn’t written as awfully as I had expected him to be. I would even go so far as to say he was mostly what I would expect of an in-character Silver: friendly, eager and strong, kinda smug about his powers, and not really suited at tackling social interactions like an argument so well. And the fact that Whisper believed him about Duo was not something I would have expected, truly. Though, since Duo is on the cover of issue 67, it leaves me wondering if the both of them will not be believed by Tangle and Lanolin... but more on covers and solicits later.

First Lanolin: because I truly do not get the feeling this girl is even supposed to be likeable in any way. Forgive me for saying it bluntly, but with basically every new appearance in the recent issues her characterisation has become more of an eyebrow-raising “Jesus, what a bitch” kind of thing for me. She’s got a lot of nerve mouthing off to a far more experienced fighter and telling him to “Next time, do better” when she herself admits that the Urban Warfare story went disastrously for the Diamond Cutters. Silver literally is a hero of the Resistance and Restoration: can you imagine her telling someone like Amy or Knuckles to do better? Silver is on equal footing with those examples (and furthermore saved the world from the Metal Virus with Super Sonic), so I truly do not see why Lanolin gets a free pass to be so disrespectful to him. And considering the whole purpose of this training was to “coordinate moves and communicate in the field”, laying the blame solely on Silver while defending Duo instead of making this a training moment for him too (or informing him that leaving someone to die is not the best course of action, even if he was frightened and did not know what to do) is even more striking to me. So again: is Lanolin simply supposed to be rude, bossy, short-tempered and haughty, or am I the only one who is seeing that?

And secondly, the solicit of 63 was simply incorrect.

Stuck in the past with no clear directive, Silver decides to spend some time with the Diamond Cutters and their new member. But he’s too busy being star-struck over Whisper to notice that he’s interrupting their training! Elsewhere, Sonic takes Blaze sightseeing so she can enjoy her vacation.

This did not happen in the comic, simple as that. He kind of fawns over the Diamond Cutters twice: when they invite him to train (page 2), and when telling Duo it’s cool he joined the Diamond Cutters (page 3). However, I must say that I am actually glad that the part of Silver fawning over Whisper and therefore being disruptive did not happen. Though I strongly dislike Lanolin’s reaction, what we got with Duo buttering Silver up and then abandoning him after he got Silver in trouble is much more preferable over Silver himself causing trouble and unjustly so by marvelling over Whisper too much. And I can forgive Whisper not speaking up during the training itself by figuring that Mimic would perhaps have attacked the four of them and put Tangle and Lanolin in danger, even if that was not outright shown. I don't want to take the more cynical route of her knowing that Lanolin would have reacted the same way as she did to Silver.

But to bring back the point from my first paragraph, since the solicit for issue 63 was incorrect, I wonder if that then means that the cover for issue 67 also is. If it is incorrect, it likely would mean Duo is caught as Mimic which would put a very quick end to this storyline... but if it is not incorrect, it would mean both Whisper and Silver are somehow not believed by Tangle and Lanolin. Considering Lanolin’s reaction to Silver literally nearly dying (because the Giant Chopper makes for a 1-hit KO in Generations), I would still heavily prefer the former over anything she can say to disregard Silver and Whisper for the latter.

#silver the hedgehog #idw sonic #let me assure you that it takes a lot of work for me to dislike a character so I am not saying this lightly #it's definitely because she is acting this way to Silver specifically and he is my favourite but if she'd said it to anyone else of the- #-cast like the above-mentioned Knuckles and Amy I would have found it equally disrespectful and eyebrow-raising #fans don't look #just in case #idw sonic spoilers
