#but blink....... she's so good

[alkalische]

2/3 of the main fish polycue

#arknights #gladiia #skadi #art #i headcannon that gladiia would have lines under her eyes and cracked lips #abyssal hunters #she takes a good second or two to blink in her chibi #because of how dry the land is #also her outfit is so ridiculously hard to draw #i like her art but i can't see shit!!

okay so now that i’ve officially finished watching leverage i just want to say that maybe i’m obsessed with this show on multiple levels and something about how it hits so many itches in that it’s about found family and it’s about fucking over bad, rich guys (no billionaire bootlicking in this show! and i fucking love it) and it’s also about how sometimes the bad guys are the only good guys you get and it’s also about how we are all stronger together it’s about how at the start of this show, we have all of these characters who are largely used to working alone and being alone and yet the show concludes that ultimately, we are better when we are together and by being together, we might be able to leave something behind that is bigger and brighter for the next people in our generation and no man is an island and no person is meant to beat goliath on their own or whatever

#caroline talks #leverage #not to be like. emotional but. #i am emotional actually! #i'm just. i get emotional thinking about all of the characters #and just how complex they are #nate with his alcoholism and his rage against the world and how he's arrogant and angry and sad and yet i think he cares so much #he cares so much about his team even if he can be a bit of an ass #sophie who adopts a million personas at the blink of an eye and yet has her own loneliness about who actually knows her #parker who keeps herself closed off bc y'know trauma in the foster care system and yet she learns to express herself and trust people #eliot who resigns himself into thinking that he's a monster and yet he starts to do some good and just. winds up protecting everyone in his #new family which. MAN i can't express enough how much that storyline means to me too #like when is a monster not a monster? / oh when you love it or whatever #and then there's hardison who's so incredibly bright and warm and can talk his way out of most situations #and then he hits a wall when all that brightness and wit and intelligence still might not get him out of a scary situation #and that's. that's when he needs people too. that's when he needs his team #and like. there are so many important points in this show #but like one of the ones i like to think about. #is just like. that you could be incredibly good at whatever it is you do #but you need people. you need a team. you need to trust others and together you can do amazing things #individually they're great #but together they're unstoppable and i think about that a lot #no man is an island and it takes a village or whatever! #also unrelated but i also find it a little funny (i'm sorry) that i finished leverage literally the night the implosion news came out

this image was always painful but now that we have more context on it, it's straight up just driving me insane

the fact that dongbaek and yi sang are at the front, but dongbaek is hiding her hands.... the fact that gubo is off to the side and looks anxious almost.... the fact that dongrang stands at the back (fully at the back, to me it looks like he's standing behind even the guy he's shoulder-to-shoulder to) and is the only one not looking at the camera, his heart not truly in it...

#okay wait I will expand on my points in the tags #imo the small detail of dongbaek hiding her hands is significant because dongbaek and yi sang were the most alike in what the league #meant to them and what they wanted out of it #but she never revealed the full extent of those feelings unlike him #meanwhile gubo was always there because of yi sang. I think I believe sang yi when he says that #(but I also believe yi sang when he says gubo cares more about himself) #so I think the idea of him being framed as part of this group sort of. Caught him off guard #I mean he didn't even seem fazed when shit went down #ik he's not really an emotional guy to begin with but he was just sort of like “the league has collapsed. Come With Me” #and he didn't even Blink at the idea of building a new one #so I yeah I think he just Didn't Really Care #txt #limbus company #yi sang #canto iv spoilers #canto 4 spoilers #canto four spoilers #addendum: idk what’s up with young-ji’s face being distorted but it keeps making me think #of that line dongrang says about his shitty imitation of the window #and the general motif of good concepts being misused/twisted that permeates the chapter #the fact that something He founded was torn apart and distorted like this… ugh

"Better than ever!" "Good as new!" Maybe if you hear it long enough, it'll start to sound true.

#dst #dontstarvetogether #dst charlie #dst mockingbirds #still don't know if they have a tag yet #dst a little drama #I Picked up a Pen (Art) #'i'll never have any time to draw now that i'm on a writing schedule!' *blinks and this shows up on my computer* 'uh oh' #anyways i've been thinking abt this for a while and i'm glad it turned out the way i wanted it to i REALLY dig this i think #i haven't drawn charlie out of msp in. god. maybe five years. idk how to draw her #alt caption was 'if the mirror's in tact then why is my reflection still shattered?' #but i wanted to harp on my favorite birdies so. #no little birdies i really don't think shes good as new her jaw is gone

"i mess up things and then i don't have the energy to fix them up" yes brain true sentence but no brain the appropriate response is NOT "therefore i should kill myself (and here's how)"

#tw suicide #i wish i was joking #i am just so so tired of keeping myself alive! can't someone else do it for a change? or better yet kill me?? #said something to the emergency room psych #she queried it and i confirmed i had said precisely what i intended #she blinked and said 'i usually hear that from jaded forty year olds not twenty year olds' #i won't share what because it was a highly specific explanation of precisely how i might see myself suiciding or how/whether i thought i #could. she asked me and i answered. apparently she wasn't expecting that level of detail and confidence #is it funny to anyone else that i always struggle with confidence but i can confidently tell her specifics about suicide thoughts? #this is reminding me of the fifteen year old yesterday i was conversing with and he randomly started listing all the suicide methods he #could think of and i was internally like you missed a dozen i can think of. didn't say that obvs #i don't know i am. tired. of everything. and i had a long and good conversation with an older woman from church last night (mother of the #boy. i have confided in her before she's great) #she's hte only person irl who now knows about the second suicide attempt (tho she doesn't know it was the second) and she was encouraging m #to see the psych and escalate care #but all day ive been regretting telling the psych or bro or anyone honestly #it would be so much EASIER to have said nothing and gone through with my plan #i wouldn't trust myself not to rn if i had access #i mean. i know multiple ways in this room i could kill myself. but i won't #there's a couple of specific methods that are most of the thoughts usually so they're the specific ones i gotta watch out for more if that #makes sense #ooh gosh im rambling i should shut up xD #personal #puddleglum hours

netflix one piece live action feels a little like fanfic in that it makes sure it hits all the important notes but doesnt do all the work to make them hit which works in fic where the reader is supposed to bring all the emotional story investment from the original but doesnt work in a multi million adaptation that is supposed to be able to stand on its own or even serve as an intro to the series. it even does this in service to have more koby and helmeppo gay moments in this essay i w

#one piece #opla #the fleshing out of koby and helmeppo is like honestly good its a beacon of light its truly really fun #and all the actors are great it is just what they are given . #they didnt let nami do any real betraying. they didnt even have her steal the merry!! she just stole the map that they added in!!!! #ddont get me started on the gutting of sanjis intro. i dont give a shit about if don krieg appears or not i need to see this guy fuckin #feed the hand thats about to kill him im going to start shaking like a dog. #im almost madder krieg appeared for just a little id rather have that time be used for. anything else really. #like have one of arlongs guys starved half to death when they get to arlong park!or idk anything! no gin appears look its gin! you know him #sanji doesnt even get to beat the shit out of a shitty guest. like i guess he does a little but it feels so blink and you miss it #+the first like two eps were good!! buggys great hes scary and weird and fun. i dont mind that he sticks around longer in theory #but the way he is comedic relief instead of basically every character having funny bits is like. ahghhhgggg. its a symptom of this really #mean and edgy feeling the whole thing has. like the removal of people missing usopps pirate calling :( and how cocoyashi didnt know #nami was working to help them. like p. please. can we have caring and bonds in this world?? trust and love??? #anyway. sorry for having expectations of a netflix show im so close to putting this into a more proper form rather than tags. just to get i #all out of my system cause fuck man. #anyway solid 7/10 not as bad as it couldve been

Was Teasel a good mom for her litter?

Teasel is like any mother: she has her good aspects and her bad

She very much models her own motherhood on her own mother, who was gentle, patient, and understanding--

But, Teasel also has priorities that sometimes clash with motherhood. She WANTS to be gentle, patient, and understanding, but she also knows that Goldspring will judge her on the fitness of her offspring.

It's hard to be patient and understanding with your children when they are the metric by which your own worth is measured on. How can you allow your children to be imperfect, when those imperfections speak to your own faults?

Flax and Willow have a lot of fond memories of Teasel as adults, but they have some bad ones too

#Flax and Willow are very young when the story begins #only a blink or two old #so im trying not to talk about their futures too much cus uh #like okay 99% of the info i post here is info on the state of the prides leading up to lotus joining #establishing the state of affairs before the wild card gets thrown in #anyways. i like this ask because at first i thought of teasel as a bad mother #but this q made me think and nah. she does a lot of good parenting. just makes sense #coev: teasel #coev: goldspring

idk how to live so im going to talk to myself out loud until i do

#listen. take a deep breath. i know your bpm is high but you need to think with me for a second. #remember that you are paper thin. all your facets are sheets of paper and what you gave her is just another one. #make a new one. you dont need it. you dont need her to see you. i know you think you need her but you will be okay. i know its hard. #you wish you could have shown her how you loved her. listen to yourself. you are made of paper. #she might be concrete or maybe wood or maybe gold. you need to start laying your roots elsewhere. shut that thought down #and blink and listen. the parts you keep thinking of arent lost. they still happened and they are yours to keep. #there is beauty in this loss. tell me about the beauty in this loss. its okay to think about it. you got to see it all and nothing more #and this is great because it would have been bad. you know it would be violent in a way you dont need. you know this to be true. #you are going to look at that empty space in her shape and youre going to fill it with everything that happened when you knew her. #the memories with her but then also the the way your friends talked you through it. the game with the clovers. #your first allergic reaction you almost died and you couldnt stop laughing and you were held so close to their hearts. #learning the names for all the floursecent gene tracking dyes that everyone else knows already. about the exam - listen again. #i know you think if you fail your life is over but you need to try your best. youre not going to get a good grade in a uni test for the fir #youre going to make up for it. youre going to make sure you make up for it. do you understand? i love you. you have to do this. #right now you need to sit up. breathe. i know your heart hurts. go to the living room. grab something to eat. i dont care if you feel full. #youre going to clean your mattress heater. youre going to study a bit longer and then youre going to sleep. youre going to tell your mother #im sorry and i might genuinely fail a test. shes going to tell you its okay. if you do badly in this course you can just become a neurosurg #just agree. dont argue right now. its okay. youre okay. you are paper thin. i know any puncture hurts. #breathe. think of your friends. think of their hands in yours. it isnt eternal.youve lived through worse. the empty sky is still beautiful. #the lack of her is still beautiful

she already says this around ~5 LP, but she only says the last part when you're married

#nikki plays rf4 #txt #i love how subtle her depression is touched upon #like a blink and youll miss it #because she tries so hard to be happy... ;_; #like the difference between her dialogue between not marriage and marriage just punched me in the gut #MAN... #maybe i should hold off marrying her for a few months so i can forget 30% of her event and have a good cry about it again

"this world will live on...!" girl no it wont im sorry

#posts in a drainage system #still. undyne's death monologue in genocide is really cool tbh #because really. we dont know how many monsters alphys managed to evacuate. we dont know how big the underground really is #there are ABSOLUTELY parts of it that you never explore in game and thats so wild to me. like. #even though alphys isn't fighting you directly she's probably one of the most important people in the narrative during the genocide run #and yet . none of it really matters in the end. does it #because by the end of genocide you have to make the decision to kill them all in the blink of an eye—as youve been doing the entire game— #or try to convince yourself in one last desperate act that you werent guilty for any of this by letting chara erase the world instead. #the final choice of the genocide run honestly makes me so wacky. like man . i could go ON about that shit #anyways this was about undynes speech. but yeah its a perfect example of dramatic irony for people familiar with the story #and if you aren't. youve probably become dissociated from your feelings about these characters if youve gotten this far into the geno run #BUT this speech is still so powerful. like maybe the monsters WILL find away to live on after this. even after their families and way of #life have been completely destroyed. even though that's the complete OPPOSITE of what youre trying to achieve during genocide #agh . such a good game

im being so serious besties i am not cut out for academia

#like yes i know ive had a very uniquely shit experience in doing a degree i actively not only hate but also am BAD AT #but also i just. cannot hack it #'but hella you go mental and pessimistic every single exam period' i know that but. im right also #like the other day i said to my mum how much ive just been enjoying my job recently #and how huge a deal that is bc i HATE my hometown and ive never ever considered my time here as possibly being good #and my 20s will hopefully be a lot of travelling but in between that to save easier im gonna live at home #so i dont have to worry about rent so alas that means when im saving up for my next trip I WILL BE IN MY HOMETOWN #and as excited as i am for my twenties that is one huge downside to me but i was really cheerfully saying to my mum #that literally for the first time ever ive considered it might not be too bad bc lately i have just enjoyed my job #like i enjoy the people and the work and the lifestyle of it and while it's never gonna be ideal as a means to an end it's actually good #and instead of focussing on that she went OFF on one about how she wants me to stay in education and keep getting qualifications #and she was like 'you could do an english degree you've always wanted to do english or how about open university-' #and i was just sat there blinking at her like girl.... no #like i could FEEL myself shutting down like the terror of having to return to this environment when ive got my sight so set #on that 'one more year and im done one more year and im done' mindset like that has been the only thing getting my through #is that im halfway through the course now so im closer to the other end than i am the beginning and if i can just push through #ill be free from it for the rest of my life. so the thought of immediately returning to academia even for a subject i adore? i felt ILL #and my mum apologised the next day without me even having to say anything bc she realised she kinda bulldozed me there #but i just know whether it's the adhd or ive actually been traumatised by this econ degree #(<- and im being serious there like ik 'traumatised' is a big loaded word but idk what else to use #and this degree has done so so much damage to me like it has convinced me that i am fundamentally a stupid person #to the point i refuse to add up bills when with friends or do answer any sort of intellectual question even if i KNOW i know the answer #bc ive just gone so so long of being bad at the only subject im studying like just SURROUNDED by it and being bad at it relentlessly #and i dont think people realise how damaging it is to very simply just... feel stupid all the time. but oh my god i used to be so confident #and bright and now i wont even do basic addition in front of people) #i really truly dont think i can do this again in any capacity. like the constant exams and studying and assignments #i just cant do it. maybe i just need a year or two away from it after this degree but my goddddd rn i cant see it #yes it's exam time for me can u tell. it always makes me existential and on the verge of vomiting at any given moment #i hate it here i hate it here i hate it here i dont care about iterated deletion of strictly dominated strategies shut the fuck up #hella goes to uni

Something funny I have noticed about my play through of Baldur’s Gate 3:

Every time I come out of a fight, everyone looks like shit. Astarion and Lae’zel are coated in blood, Astarion personally looks like he went a few rounds with a boxer. Shadowheart always ends up super grungy, but usually more… muddy.

But my Tav, Maknok. He usually gets, like, an artistic blood splatter. A gentle smearing. Like someone spritzed some blood at him from across a room. It’s probably because he’s a ranger, while everyone else is on the front lines familiarizing themselves with enemy intestines, but it leads to wandering around post-battle being WAY funnier than it should.

Here comes this sad little half-orc with the biggest saddest wettest eyes you’ve ever seen and behind him are three blood soaked apparitions

#mobbtalks #baldursgateposting #I do keep a sponge in my inventory which I try to pass around post-battle #but sometimes I forget #Lae’zel in particular is bad for getting bloody. I feel like I blink and she’s coated again #I mean good for her #actually thinking on it the battle that prompted this post #I had a really good rapier on Maknok so he was hand to handing with everyone else #and yet

I’m not like an expert on childcare or anything but I am a human person who has been around for over two decades and I have made a couple of interesting observations about kids during my time on this Earth:

If you scream at a small child, they are probably going to either scream back in defiance or start crying out of fear.

If you get rough with a small child and try to physically drag them around, they are probably going to feel trapped (because they are) and instinctively try to escape.

Doing either of these things will scare the child and make them significantly less likely to do as you ask and stay by your side because they don’t want to get screamed at or hit.

Now, this all might seem like common sense to you; and it absolutely is!

SO WHY THE FUCK DO MOTHERS OF TODDLERS AT THE SUPERMARKET KEEP BEHAVING THIS WAY

#Why is it legal for them to do this but it’d be illegal for me to give them a fuckin slap #(away from the child obvs so I don’t traumatise them further) #Like why the fuck are these people having kids when they clearly don’t even like them #You’re beefing with a 4 year old it’s so embarrassing for you #One time a little girl said she wanted a chocolate bar #And her mum went ‘yeah well I want loads of things but life isn’t fair like that’ ????????????????????? #Just say you have one at home or buy it and save it for when they’re really good or something Jesus it’s not hard #I hate how child abuse is so normalised #And people deny it because they don’t see this behaviour as abuse #These mfs act this way IN PUBLIC and most people don’t even blink #If they’re like this in public who knows what they do at home #Are you not ashamed of yourself are you not embarrazzed #child abuse #childcare #parenting #abuse #rant #vent #physical abuse #verbal abuse
