#but it wasnt cruel

[nerves-nebula]

my brother asked why my voice was so deep and I said I’d give him 3 guesses, and he said “You doin the little flip-flop? The little switcheroo?” and it took me like 10 seconds to realize that was his Polite Way of asking if i was transitioning

#nnstuff #trans #transgender #hes so fuckin funny like #hes not the most Well Informed or anything but #hes not intentionally cruel #he really dont gaf lol #so thats nice #hes also the first person to actually comment on it #for a while i thought it just wasnt noticable #cuz my mom and sister didnt say anything about it #my gender is too complex for him to understand but he's literally just like Whatever #hrt

I couldnt finish. Got too sad.

#Disco elysium #So at first i didnt have an idea for an end panel that was kinda cheesey looking and so i was just going to leave it #But then i was like what even is this? Is it a declaration of despair? Is it some kind of masturbation? Is it fake doom tourism? #So i wasnt going to post it. It just felt cruel and inappropriate #But then i was like if even a fictional bombing serves a purpose at all its to radicalize the youth #Thats annette at the end btw. Besides the lorry drivers shes probably the only one not there at the time #Its a declaration of despair btw #Im so sad #Oh fuck i forgot to tag #Hanging #Death #Flashbacks

#believing dirk is the worst guy because its what dirk thinks of himself #ignoring daves bisexuality and think hes a gay man in denial even when he explained hes bisexual #believing john 'im not a homosexual' egbert is explicitly straight while he makes out with his mcconahey and cameron posters more #than he kissed women(literally only once) #believing that rose is an edgy psyhcotic little bitch when she was neglected. she speaks elegantly to cover that shes silly and a total ner #and how did people forget that rose also writes gay wizard fanfiction. reads Wikipedia. and her beautiful artstyle as a result of neglect #(and by neglect meaning having SO MUCH TIME to draw) #jake wasnt into dirk. he also told di that he didnt like how brobot getting touchy with him during strifes #but as part of the repression 4(prospit kids). he refused on changing the bot settings #what jane said about roxy being better when she was drunk. it was fucking sarcasm. its the least insane shit you could say to a best friend #all the kids have issues and of course people get mad over a girl being sarcastic. #when KARKAT said THE SAME THING to rose when she was drunk on the meteor nobody bats an eye #trolls are just grey humans that are bugs. he doesnt get an excuse for being an alien. humans were made from KARKATS BLOOD #jade isnt all silly girl and is so FULL OF HATE towards the trolls. she called karkat a fuckass (VERY FUNNY) to do her a favor #“jade would rather have punched karkat in the fact then had a pleasent conversation with him.” #“she viewed the trolls as rude mean and cruel. and even thought that nepeta was just making fun of her. #despite it being that nepeta just wanted to roleplay and have fun." #dred.loki #I HAVE YET TO ADD MORE.

When Cardan says to Locke “Time to change partners. Oh, did I steal your line?” And his tone is unfriendly.

His tone is unfriendly

Yeah I’m going to be fucking sick that was so fucking hot. Cardan said you’re in the way of my future, move along.

as a certified Diagnosed Autist(TM) i cannot stress enough that i am not only pro- self-diagnosis, but also pretty anti- legal medical diagnosis. it is, at best, a cruel hoop we have to jump through so privileged people will deign to give us what we need. don't fucking do that shit unless you have to, it was disgustingly expensive, fucking humiliating, infantilizing, and dehumanizing, and would probably actively cause problems in my life if i didn't have some really good allistic (-passing) people in my corner and also wasn't so fucking disabled that it mostly doesn't matter.

literally get that diagnosis if you need it for job/school accessibility shit or SSI or whatever, and otherwise dont tell the government SHIT about yourself. there is zero good reason for them to want that information. that's between you and the people you want in your life.

#as a side note: this goes for gender too #dont fucking get a special marker on your passport or whatever #trying to get ssi has made me realize how deeply cruel the system is #never reveal any vulnerability you have unless it's absolutely necessary #do not do this stuff for validation the government is not your friend and you should seek emotional fulfillment elsewhere #hm this post turned out a lot angrier than i meant #guess i'm still mad about how awful the process was #it wasnt even long it was just. so *impersonal.* #this woman talked to me for two hours. went down a fairly bigoted checklist. #didnt ask me my own opinion on much of anything. and then declared a bunch of her impressions as if they hold weight just bc shes allistic #like how i have 'identity issues' (am trans and dont want a romantic partner) #and thats just. my permanent record of diagnosis! this two hour conversation with a stranger! she doesnt fucking know me #we paid like $500 for that

ugly baby rivers is gonna be in my brain forever

its not his fault..... newborns are just ugly

(i did some rambling in the tags if u wanna look at it lol)

#species swap au #ss descent #ss rivers #ss fire #theyre so weird. puppies. i think ancients used to have....... litters. i guess. of two to three babies #but they began to evolve to have less #and now its like. twins are pretty common but more often than not you have one #lots of people are opposed to having kids at all because its viewed as cruel to introduce someone to a cycle where they are so aware of- #-their entrapment #i dont think either pregnancy was intentional but fire was probably more welcome #they didnt know she was pregnant with rivers until shed already been for a couple months- and then he was born.... probably like 7 or 8- #-weeks early #fire wasnt on purpose either but they knew earlier and didnt have any complications #they were probably recommended not to go through with fires pregnancy since rivers birth was so hard on her and he was so sick #but i think now that shed had a kid and come to like the idea shed probably be happy to have another baby #i think they have fire mmmmmmmmmm three years after rivers (this is the same gap as me and my sibling. easy to remember) #takes your ask as an excuse to babypost #druid draw

DISTRACTIONS sometimes its the drive to help and save our friends that pushes us to learn and to succeed. unfortunately its normally ''unethical'' to replicate that in a classroom setting. I ONLY JUST FINISHED THE LAST PAGE HERE, THE FIRST TWO WERE LITERALLY FROM LAST YEAR, N A FEW MONTHS APART. LOOOOK AT MY EVOLUTION. im very proud of this and bled REALLY HARD FOR THE LAST PAGE. PLEASE ABSORB THIS.

#gillion tidestrider #jrwi fanart #jrwi show #jrwi riptide #the last page honestly just took super long bc i dropped it for a long while. only recently wiped the dust off o it. #IM RLY PROUD OF ALOT O THINGS ABT THAT LAST PAGE #LIKE THE PERSPECTIVE N THE WIDE SHOTS OR WHATEVER #IT WASNT EASY BUT I MADE IT LOOK GOOD!! IM SO HAPPY WITH IT #I ALSO just really love drawing gillion as soooo small #just a little guy with the weight of the world bolted to his tiny tiny shoulders #n yknow what while im here ill talk abt the first two comics aswell. i like taking inspo from JTHM for this kinda stuff #more specifically SQUEE n the way his dad was just sooo honest and cruel to him. 'yeah its your fault my life sucks' n all that. i imagine #that gillion prolly dealt with alot o that too. i know weve already seen the elders #but i did initially imagine them to be very much like the Tallests from invader zim. they just hate this little guy. hes so small n lame #hes prolly had teachers like that im sure. i like thinkin about gills experience in school!! #i fell in love with him the moment he said that he wasnt good at being a student like girl ME TOOOO WAAAAAA #HE SUCKS In school and everyone is just sooo tired of him but they gotta put up with him bc hes the Chosen One #but GOD they wish they had someone more competent i bet. it was prolly a relief when they banished him #could u imagine being that? someone so insufferable that people sigh in relief when youre gone. poor poor gillion #ANYWAY THATS ALL MY THOUGHTS #TALK ABT UR THOUGHTS IN THE TAGS TOO DIPSHIIITT CMAAAHHNN

Late night Jokerposting because.... mmh I need that man in my life... weird- it feels whenever I feel upset and like my life is full of chaos and out of control I think of him and he makes me feel calm. I think he might be a weird comfort character but he is to me.

"Izzy wasn't used to further Ed's plotline" Then why did they kill him at all? An alternate version could have been for Izzy to get shot, Ed's worried he's going to die, so they both start apologizing and have their reconciliation, but Izzy manages to survive, and they still go their separate ways, starting a new chapter for both of them. So why did they kill him? For Ed to start anew his past with Izzy, and Blackbeard, had to be wrapped up nicely, feelings sorted out, and they did that, but they chose to kill him because they were done with him at that point, David said as much in interviews that he didn't serve a purpose anymore. It's clear as day that Izzy's main worth, in the eyes of the writers at least, was to cause conflict when needed, to enrich the story with certain tropes and themes, he was the bitchy ex wife father figure, lol, to Ed. Izzy was never an actual person that they had an end goal for, he didn't get to live out the rest of his life because his life's story was meant to be as Ed's sidekick all along, and not much else. Which, when i hear David say he loves Izzy, i mean yeah, i believe that he believes that, its not like i think he's lying, but i honestly don't think its possible to love Izzy and then make the kinds of choices he did. I don't think most, if any, Izzy fans would choose to kill Izzy to begin with, and those few that would, certainly wouldn't have done it in this manner, much less at this time in his life's journey. There's a chance that he loves Izzy from a writer/director's point of view and has an appreciation for Con's ability to bring the character to life, but that's very different from how the rest of us love him. The fact so many of us feel betrayed, and even confused by this ending, shows me there's a real disconnect on what we mean when we say we love Izzy, we wanted him to have a happy ending, because we love him, and yet bafflingly, David thought his ending was happy, yeah, maybe for Stede and Ed, which just kind of proves my point for me.

#i see this argument quite often and i disagree completelyyy izzy could have just been a part of the crew but i guess he wasnt- #ever going to really be a part of a crew/family. it rlly was so cruel in every way.i try not to think about it but when i do its a gut punc #ofmd spoilers #ofmd s2 spoilers #izzy hands #izzy deserved better

if silksong doesnt break my heart into a million pieces and then feed it to every part of the local ecosystem just like the original bug game did i will fall into a deeper pit of despair than the path of pain reward put me in or hell any of the fucking cutscenes get the waterworks going i am too attached to these sentient bugs

#hollow knight #silksong #with a rating going live in australia im assuming the majority if not all content is produced/planned for the game #otherwise they couldnt dispute a content rating w the esbr yet so theyre likely bug testing and polishing the game not still working on it #also first rating on april fools was so fucking cruel ik it prob wasnt intentional but still. why. #wait another day and give me whiplash i can recover from

I can’t believe Taryn betrayed Jude even after the whole Undersea shit went down. Your sister was tortured everyday for a over month, you saw all of what it did to her, and you still decide to hurt her even further? As if she hasn’t already gone through enough??

And to do it only to potentially be the most favored by their father?

Taryn: When Jude goes low, I bring her lower

#and it wasnt long at all after the undersea😭😭💀💀 #oh my GOD #jude wanted to protect her and all taryn ever did was put Jude in harms way #taryn was only ever wholly selfish while jude was wholly selfless #taryn is so hostile toward jude when jude isnt even aware shes done anything wrong #jude is literally so dissmisive if she even lets herself THINK of taryn in a negative way #and taryn doesnt bat an eye to discredit jude #the fact that taryn was the one who told locke about jude (comma) and locke tells jude that shes not like “they” said she would be #like that totally not suspicious #taryn snitches on jude 'possibly' having cardan JUST BECAUSE SHES UPSET JUDE WONT GET PUNISHED AS SHE DID FOR THE DUEL #taryn didnt care whether or not jude had him (comma🙄) she was willing to throw cardan and jude under the bus for some petty fucking shit #her actions are the epitome of hideous #she thinks jude is her mirror so she projects onto jude #horribly #the wicked king #queen of nothing #the cruel prince #jude duarte #like I don’t HATE HATE Taryn but I rlly fucking dislike her

Had a realization while mopping the kitchen,

Jotaro is all three of his parents child, because listen

Usagi:

He looks like a carbon copy of the guy and acts similarly to him, same drive, same temper, everyone points these two things out

Kenichi:

I like to make the cuck joke as much as anyone else but let's not forget that he and Jotaro have a real father-son relationship!!!! Jotaro calls him father and loves him like one!!! Kenichi knows Jotaro isn't his and his rival is his sire but doesn't care and loves and raises him anyway!!!! Also I'm pretty sure that Kenichi is always/mostly wearing purple in colored comic issues and what is Jotaro wearing???? Purple!!!!! The symbolism????? Because Usagi may be Jotaro's biodad but he is not the man that raised him, fed him, clothed him, Jotaro is wearing Kenichi's colors!!!! Because he is as much Kenichi's son as Usagi's!!!

Mariko:

obviously he has her ears and nose but also! May be grasping at straws but! His clothes have a pattern like she does and(correct me if I'm wrong) Kenichi doesn't! Kenichi's are plain with only the reigning Lord of the lands Mon and Mariko's and Jotaro's has a design! Similar in how they both love Kenichi but they also love Usagi! Jotaro wants a father-son relationship with Usagi but not at the cost of one with Kenichi! Mariko has affections for both Kenichi and Usagi but it's pretty obvious her feelings for Usagi run deeper than for Kenichi, but that doesn't mean she doesn't love him! Because for all that she loves Usagi, he didn't love her enough to stay and Kenichi did. Even though Kenichi had to leave the Dogora school in shame he still could've been a retainer to a lord like Usagi but instead he stayed! This man raised her child knowing damn well how he came to be and didn't care! Married her knowing she could never return his feelings with the same fervor!

Jotaro loves his parents and wants to respect all their wishes! This poor fucking kid...

#usagi yojimbo #miyamoto usagi #jotaro #jotaro usagi yojimbo #mariko #mariko usagi yojimbo #kenichi #kenichi usagi yojimbo #anyome remeber tomoe ame's evil halfsister/cousin? how she was raised by a father that knew how she was born and hated her for it? #talented with a blade but cruel? amd Jotaro could've been that Kenichi could've been cold and distant and cruel but he wasn't #he looked at the boy and he loved him #usagi wasnt there to raise him or provide for mariko so he fucking would #he's not a stepdad he's the dad that stepped up #sorry if it sounds like im dissing on my boy miyamoto i /know/ he'd have been a good fucking dad if given the chance #but current circumstances as they are? no he could not and that fucking /hurts/ #good men good samurai both with potential to be good fathers and husbands but with the tragedy of war and being in love with the same woman #it was never gonna end well #hey do you think the reason why usagi keeps going after married/gonna be married women is because of his yearning to settle down #he wants to be domestic so fuckin bad...always so far but out of reach... #usagi miyamoto

Kevjean that spend years without talking to each other out of the pure irrational fear of not having anything in common now that they are both free of Riko – If they don't look then the change isn't there

AGH....... theyre so fucking stupid but i think so much about how important riko is to their relationship and how much of a space he could be given even as a dead man if kevin and jean don't make a point out of ignoring him...... but how can you rid a relationship of its primal creator if its also both parties' first and worst abuser........ how do you get rid of riko without getting rid of each other..... its really. ah

i think a big part of kevjean to me is that both of their separate, new support systems (the trojans and the foxes in this case, though i use the term support system loosely) absolutely dont agree with this relationship at all GHDFGDHGJDFG when all your friends think your relationship is a grudge you cant let go of..... when everyone in your life thinks the only reason you could stay together is out of a misguided sense of codependence........ when no one wants you together and no one understands and it feels like youre a cult of two :) when id rather remember every time ive ever been wronged and abused than let go of you :) when you look at him and you think hes just something you invented when you were scared and needed to be rescued :))))

anyway heres my kevjean vision moodboard

#asks #kevjean #i need HORSE TRANQUILIZERRR RIS WHAT I NEED :) #its all about. its all about the sweetness that invites abuse of kevjean #if you even care. then thats what its all about #literally separated these quotes tears in my eyes on company time. its hard for me #the thing is that i really see it all for them i see the engagement parties and the picket fence houses and the anniversary trips #they arent doomed by the narrative but its just so cruel that it existed in the first place #they will be happy...... but the nest will always have happened............ #its really bad for me. it really is #i think well i think there is no universe where jean isnt loyally and eternally devoted to kevin for that sliver of kindness in the nest #but i do often wish the situation wasnt as extreme as it was #im seeing taylor in november by the way if she plays labyrinth ill throw a kevjean print on stage. who want me
