Okay but Gojo raised two children at 17/18 alone with like zero experience on how to be a good parent while he was training to become the strongest and shortly after loosing his best friend who had also been the one he had been in love with in one of the most horrendous and cruel ways possible all while keeping up an incredibly cheerful and carefree personality.

You can't tell me that this man wasn't emotionally, mentally and probably also physically exhausted during that time.

#Doing all of that is honestly so impressive #And doing so while being at a bad place in life/struggling with mental health makes it even more difficult to manage #I like to think that Nanami and Shoko kept checking on him frequently despite him saying that he was fine and didn't needed any help #He was just 17/18 at that time. He was so young. #Hc: When he had a moment for himself in the evening when the kids were already in bed he would just sit in bed and stare holes into the air #he would do so for nearly one hour unless one of the kids would call for him which happened rarely #shoving only tiny parts of headcanons which aren't bsd related into the posts which aren't bsd related so that I can still publish them #Listening to sad songs while my mental health is getting worse again really sets the mood for this one #satoru gojo #gojo satoru #gojo saturo #saturo gojo #megumi fushiguro #tsumiki fushiguro #fushiguro tsumiki #geto suguru #suguru geto #satoru x suguru #satosugu #jjk gojo #jjk spoilers #jujutsu kaisen #jjk #not bsd related

Maybe controversial, but on posts about being dumb where girls are like saying ‘but I’m actually smart.’ Like tbh, I don’t really believe them. Like if you’re smart why does feeling dumb feel so good or hot or whatever to you then? I kinda feel like it’s having an excuse to let go of trying as much as you would be when you’re saying your smart. If you’re like really actually smart, I don’t feel like a break from ‘being smart’ would be such a relief or like as appealing.

#if you’re on my blog much may have noticed I’m just having a lot of feelings about this more lately #like it’s okay to not be smart #you can be happier #and like I feel like I sometimes get people who try to call me smart #like there’s diff skill sets #I think I’m still pretty good at soft skills and like makeup stuff #but like I regularly can’t get left and right right or name all the months and so on for lots of things #idk. I feel like dumb doesn’t mean you’re horrible at everything #like you still have value and can make a positive impact but just in different ways #I’m a soo much happier when at work I’m more focused on being someone others really like to work w than like being efficient at my job #and honestly seems like people prefer that #I have too many thoughts about at this lately #really hoping throughing them into the intenrwbt even if it’s more in tags gets out of my head more #personal #also very much not at a 100 notes but for a text post from me it’s impressive so… #100+ #little thoughts

thinking about how certain people at DC believed that steph and cass weren't characters who people cared about or would have long-lasting fanbases, yet when they tried to kill steph off for shock value fans were so outraged that they eventually had to walk it back and say "actually she was alive the entire time, she was just in hiding until now"

and when they tried to turn cass into a villain out of nowhere there was such an immediate backlash that they had to lie and say "we definitely have a plan here guys, don't worry" and eventually went "actually she was just brainwashed, she's back to being good now" (though cass was still hit with more bullshit afterwards)

and finally when they tried to retcon both characters out of existence with the new 52, fans complained enough that they eventually ended up writing the characters back into continuity

i dunno man, it doesn't sound like the characters had issues attracting fans. seems like the issue was something else

#batgirl #stephanie brown #cassandra cain #it still boggles my mind how badly DC dropped the ball regarding them like their current state is not because their characters flopped #it is straight up DC's own fault. they deliberately screwed both characters over #it's honestly so funny and infuriating like holy crap the management at DC is impressively incompetent. #of course steph and cass weren't the only victims of DC's mismanagement but goddamn were they hit BAD by it

Why is there no war or conflicts in the Boiling Isles before Philip came into the picture?? I’m so confused?? Like everyone in the past was so nice ?? You telling me humans back home were suffering poverty, war, famine, killing and accusing each other of witchcraft, committing genocide against natives, but the witches had a whole utopia? Why did Evelyn even take interest in such a place?? You telling me tween Philip single-handedly introduced evil to an entire civilization?? A random fatherless, motherless, brotherless man took over an entire world full of beings that naturally have immense power, no one else ever even tried to abuse this natural born power ever ??

#emperor belos #philip wittebane #toh critical #the owl house #elsewhere and elsewhen #it’s honestly impressive #I’m half joking btw #but still disappointed #I’m in pain don’t expect my rants to be coherent #I hate that one person defeated solved every problem ever #it makes NO sense #you have an entire world of fantastical creatures that naturally possess great power #but the only truly evil creature on the planet is a mental ill orphan

Two souls. Both given a second chance. Both waiting for a third.

Some bonus versions under the cut :D

also shoutout to @fishcop for listening to me ramble about this idea and then showing up with a beautiful drawing like. an hour later :D

#HIIIIIIIIIIII SO GUESS WHOS BEEN INSANE ABOUT PD EVER SINCE THE S2 FINALE CAME OUT #THATS RIGHT #ITS MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE #anyways this was something i thought up while listening to the finale and now here we are a month later #I've been challenging myself to make sure my drawings look good unlined lately #and i really love how its forcing me to pay more attention to detail #in this case i honestly think i prefer the unlined version #hence why its above the cut :D #the second bonus was literally just because i was doing the rim lighting and i accidentally hid the characters #and the result kinda took my breath away #like. yeah.

I feel like the upcoming kataang!movie they are gonna do a hell of a job compensating for everything that peeved people about tlok like have them mention how they are like so super happily married for every five seconds and that they have no marital problems, like, ever and that they are each other’s one and only 5ever and that Katara is happily a housewife if it means Aang can do his avatarly duty and that Zuko officiated their marriage to get back at those Zutara shippers or whatever

considering literally everything that has come out about kataang in the last half a decade has been nothing more than damage control for the show and early comics... yeah, i see it.

they literally shoved in a "look! aang does domestic work after all HAH!" even in the fucking cookbook that maybe like 2% of the fandom bought so the movie is definitely going to be chock full of entirely unsubtle moments put in solely as a fuck-you to anyone who dared criticize bryke's perfect self-insert ship. poor zuko's probably going to become the bryke soapbox on kat.aang just so they can rub it in our faces because "look! even zuko loves kat.aang what do you MEAN he would never say that shut up about his sizzling chemistry with katara - "

either ways, it makes no difference to me. they could have every single character turn directly to the camera and say aang and katara have the most perfect romance of all time, and that would still do absolutely nothing to fix how their relationship started in atla, and how it inevitably ended in lok. nothing they do in the gaang movie will retcon how utterly irrelevant katara became in the legend of korra, or the complete lack of respect aang (and the narrative) had for her agency and boundaries in atla.

short of inventing time travel and rewriting the show, the problems with kat.aang cannot be handwaved away no matter how much bryke tries to word-of-god it. it's a pity most of the general atla fandom is definitely going to eat it up, but i'll just be over here shipping my beloved zutara in peace and ignoring the fuck out of "canon" like i always have :)

#zutara #anti kataang #anti bryke #though honestly given the writing talent those two have i'll be impressed if they don't somehow cock kat.aang up in an entirely new way #i still have major doubts about this movie actually becoming a finished product so let's hope for a cancellation #leave the atla franchise in peace and move the fuck on challenge

The way it's depicted, Cybertron's pre-war societal issues had a lot less to do with Functionism and more to do with unchecked government corruption, massive wealth disparity, high layoff/unemployment rates, and disenfranchisement.

People were starving, they needed work, they weren’t getting any. Those that were fortunate enough to have work didn’t get paid living wages, much less have anything to spare for health contingencies. Even then stability’s still the luxury of the top few tiers; they live one cut away from layoff. The government cared only enough to exacerbate these issues by coming up with new ways for exploitation. Any attempts to protest or lobby were shut down through political persecution. As a result the masses turned increasingly to crime, drug abuse, thuggery, and violence. Extreme acts of terrorism gets lauded as long as the collateral damage's suffered by someone else. Morality and caution are eroded in the face of desperation.

Meanwhile the many alleged restrictions of Functionism are just lip service complaints made by the characters which doesn’t match up to most of the stuff we’re shown. Like if Rung could become a psychologist, a specialized job that requires higher education, despite having zero background on top of such a weird alt that he had to be classified as an ornament, then wow the functionists must be open-minded. If Dominus Ambus could be a scientist/doctor/explorer/author/successful social rights advocator during the height of functionist control with a minesweeper military-use alt (assuming that his secondary alt's the same as Minimus'), then wow the functionists must be accommodating. If Tyrest could become chief engineer under Nova and later go into law, a complete change of profession, while being a jet, then wow functionism's flexible. If Ratbat and Momus could become senators in a society that discriminates heavily against beastformers and labor frames, then wow that’s progressive. If every Prime from Nova to Zeta (with the exception of Sentinel, his alt’s a tank, he only has wings in Megatron Origin as part of his Apex armour upgrade), every single named pre-war senator other than Proteus and Momus, and four out of five of Nova Prime’s buddy club (only Galvatron's a grounder) were wingframes in a society that supposedly discriminates against wingframes, then wow that’s… inconsistent worldbuilding.

Megatron didn’t get into bloodsports or start a war because he didn’t get to pursue his dream job. He got driven into the pits and down the slippery slope of moral degeneration because his only source of income was cut off by the mine closure incident. People wanted livelihoods above anything else, it's the failure to provide that that made the miners go off the deep end and resulted in the death of a guard. If Functionism actually ensured that everyone could be guaranteed a job or at least minimized the unemployment rates, then stratified castes or not, there would have been no war. People, or societies, are generally capable of tolerating an incredible amount of injustice as long as the majority still have a chance at scraping by at the end of the day. But the government, and later Megatron, kept yanking the rug out from under everyone over and over until they no longer even had a chance at that; there's no other choice left but fight or die.

#I get that all prejudices are full of contradictions and inconsistencies meant to cater to the needs of the ruling class #for the sole purpose of upholding the social stratification #and tokenism is a common thing #but when you can pull out two or more examples as shown to the contrary for every one of a character's complaints #about how they suffered from functionism discrimination #then it's just a really bad case of inconsistent writing with all tell no show #like you cannot expect me to take the 'flightframes are low caste' thing seriously #because the entire pre-war upper class is almost exclusively comprised of flight frames. it's the ground vehicles that are the minority #honestly it just feels like something made up on the spot for Starscream's sake #and Thundercracker Skywarp Jetfire got benefitted by association #when was functionism introduced as a concept in the comic anyway #was it in that Megatron/Optimus conversation in Chaos Theory? #b/c I'm getting heavy retcon vibes there #I got no impression that functionism was even a thing that existed when reading Megatron Origin #Autocracy's written later but still no functionism #The main social issue is widespread poverty like I'm sure a lot of those ppl would be pretty happy if someone could assign them jobs? #the miners in Megatron Origin weren't mad because they had to work in the mines #They were mad because of the layoff and automation and knowing soon there's going to be no mines for them to work. and then they'd starve #idw transformers #transformers #maccadam

I always find gun owners silly when they try to claim lacking deep intricate knowledge of guns means you shouldn't demand literally any protections from them.

Like buddy people may not know what an assault rifle actually is but does that even slightly fucking matter when it's a Point-and-Click Kill Tool?

Safety is always thrown to the wayside when people discuss why they believe guns ahould be banned, but then it's All About safety of self-defense with these people who have never shot a living target once in their lives, nor ever have been in any situation that required any need for such.

Perhaps we should not listen to those with a vested interest in the rather dangerous hobby. They seem to think having the wrong name of a gun stops the gun from killing anyone. They also seem to care about their safety over children's who are in fact dying in larger and larger numbers than these Larpers.

#gun control #ban em outright honestly #We ain't fighting back against our oppressors now come on let's quit that Larp #best we can do is another Jan6th but competant #but if we're actively FIGHTING the military???? #your collection can be as impressive as you want #a bomb is a bomb #they win via Bombs #we lose via Bullet #who's gonna supply us with ammo seriously #your hunting trip might be well stocked but you're gonna need more than 2 mags or clips to stop the bomb falling on your house #self defense is still an absolute rarity with guns #and we kill each other with knives more than any other country #perhaps we should just not allow us an upgrade from knives

Ohhhh so would you consider that Crassus let Pompey get away with some things he might have not let others get away with ? Because he recognised his use ?

I think that the only person that Crassus let get away with anything was Cicero, on account of Cicero being Publius’ other father

#Pompey and Crassus were functionally a duumvirate so their balance of power has to do more with keeping each other in check #which Crassus is perfectly positioned to do bc his power structure is unique to him and counter balances Pompey’s #in a lesser pair Pompey would easily gain the upper hand if he wanted to bust it down Sulla style #Crassus in this case has the more impressive measure of political power by keeping them evenly matched at each turn #but I still wouldn’t position him in a vertical power structure with Pompey where he would let Pompey get away with things #esp since there are two times that it appears that both men were trying to get the feel of what the other was thinking #wrt each other and their future plans. a vertical power structure would be intolerable for Pompey at that time tbh #they seemed to value each other as a reliable political partner specifically for this reason #and each recognized the specific power that the other had. you can really feel it when Pompey has to fill Crassus’ role with Caesar lmao #honestly that kind of vertical power structure might have been intolerable to Rome as a whole. hm……thoughts….. #ALRIGHT IM GETTING OFF TOPIC I need to make coffee #ask tag
