#but this whole situation is dumb

[the-cookie-of-doom]

My brother lost his job (which I got him >_>) and I just found out that today, not even a week later, the manager was fired for improper termination of other employees, so now I'm having to him him fight to get his back. I just want to write fic and draw my boys ;-;

#cookie speaks #dad like you took business law help him! #i dont WANT TO tho #sigh #ofc im going to #but this whole situation is dumb #im just glad that i dont have to see her when i get back from vacation on sunday #best outcome

I think it's so funny that people treat Arya like she has no self-control because she *checks notes* stood up to Joffrey and defended her friend from being attacked

#arya stark #asoiaf #that's literally the only evidence people have to /prove/ that Arya wouldn't have been able to survive in KL 😭 #and then the same people call Sansa a queen for thinking about pushing Joffrey over the edge the obvious bias is so funny #people treating Arya like she's the dumb and reckless counterpart is soooooo forced cause there's literally no evidence #even her defending Mycah isn't impulsive...she has a whole internal monologue about thinking her father or his men would've defended him to #because it was the right thing to do but I guess no other character is allowed to be naive and learn a lesson #anyways saying this just makes you look stupid cause Arya's entire arc and survival hinges on her keeping calm in tense situations

this is a love triangle. literally.

#they are literally standing in a triangle. how much more obvious could you make it rosy #zoey looks like she just planted a bomb in my home #daisy looks like she has 27 uno cards up her ass #jake looks like the dumb roach he is<3 #drew and hailey look like drew and hailey #🦇💬 #tmf #the music freaks #tmf ep 11 #tmf finale #drake tmf #jailey #jake sterling #hailey austin #drew tmf #my personal hc is drew likes jake; jake likes hailey; hailey is oblivious to the whole situation but she did used to like jake around ep6-8 #or smth like that idk

listen i am geralt of rivia hater number one but one thing i actually CANNOT stand is when the fandom mischaracterizes him. took one look at this man who speaks very straight-forwardly and matter-of-fact and is a little recalcitrant with his words sometimes and went "haha he communicates in grunts! man who only says 'hm'!" and then won't even write him to speak in full fucking sentences. hello???? hello???????? yes the netflix show was a bad influence on everybody because they were trying too hard to depict geralt as a stoic manly badass but we CANNOT let that distract us from the REAL thing to make fun of geralt for. which are his Constant Unprovoked Monologues

#also the fact that he fakes his dumb stupid little rivian accent because the man was NOT raised in rivia. but i digress #'haha he only says hm!' where were you for every episode when he launched into a speech about the lesser evil. that's like. the whole thing #geralt of rivia will do nothing But talk once you let him. don't give that bitch a chance! he'll start up about honor again!!! #convinced that most of this is because netflix show insisted on showing us him around jaskier so much #and jaskier does not shut up. love him to death. but geralt genuinely does not have time to get a word in edgewise #i will admit that this is something that i had to learn by reading the books and paying more attention to it #but it's not like he DOESN'T do it in the show. if you ever sit with a witcher episode transcript for whatever reason #and really take a look at geralt's lines. man he talks a whole fucking lot. #again cannot emphasize enough that he Monologues. HE TALKS HIS WAY OUT OF SO MANY SITUATIONS. #me when i look filavandrel of the elves in the eyes and 'hm' at him and he lets me go. no bitch he monologued!!!! #terrible. terrible. let this man speak. if i see you fanfic bitches continue making him talk in sentence fragments again i'm gonna kill #as for my own fanfic. i will always prefer a geralt who talks too much to be believable over a geralt who barely speaks at all. #both because i believe in letting him speak his mind which he OBVIOUSLY likes to do. sideeyes him. #and because it's just fucking boring and a little annoying to read speech patterns that don't sound like how people talk. #cough cough lan wanji the untamed. man i'm not sitting here and reading this motherfucker's two word sentences #let him speak!!!!!! #anyway. #geralt of rivia #the witcher #fanfic

well, now we have THREE nickels

#btw the joke is that we have 3 videos with ex-buzzfeed employees sitting on a couch talking 'bout serious shit #i haven't watcher posted at all besides talking to two friends about the whole situation but i've been a long time fan and i Did Not Like I #happy to see they've made an update and i'm seeing mixed/positive responses so far so like maybe there is a coming back from this #but imo they still need to rebuild/regain the trust they lost with so many of us by making such a dumb business decision #watcher #watcher entertainment #ryan bergara #shane madej #steven lim #watchergate

the world does not need another silly one shot from me about the Venom Symbiote's time in captivity with the Fantastic Four but if I'm going to fixate on one page in one comic by god I'm going to do something with that

I just think it would be sweet if in Reed Richards' desperate attempts to communicate with the Symbiote he tried to like, teach it Morse code, and he asks it, "do you have a name? is there something you were called, some designation you were given? something unique to you?"

And the symbiote taps back after a long moment the closest thing to a human translation of the only thing it can think might fit what Reed is referring to: "DEATH"

And Reed is all at once filled with a kind of overwhelming sadness, because what kind of life has this alien lived that it was called only "Death" by those it encountered? What kind of symbiosis had it experienced, if any at all?

But then he manages to collect himself, and he tells his guest that well, we'll just have to come up with a better designation than that, won't we? He probably tells it about how Sue, his own partner, is the one who gave him the name the world knows him by, "Mister Fantastic", and that he hopes the symbiote, too, can find a name it can be proud of.

Everyone needs a name, after all.

#headcanons #i guess #i got a really vague ask recently so I'm thinking about using it as an excuse to write this #i feel weird writing F4 stuff for this era since i have not read it at ALL but #i love Reed so much... 🥺 #venom #reed richards #fantastic four #alien costume era #super self indulgent tag addition: #years later Reed finally gets to follow up with it properly (it's probably like #bonded to both Eddie and Flash it's fine whatever they are just a trio now) #and it preens a little as it informs Reed that it likes the name 'Venom' that it originally took with Eddie even for itself #Franklin from across the room: 'that's SO EDGY oh my god dude' #Flash: 'it's a great name!' #Johnny who is there for unknown reasons: 'no it's edgy; i just didn't want to tell you when we met how dumb i thought it was' #Eddie is just amused by the whole situation and thinks it's funny to watch Flash argue

Ppl keep saying they forgot to give William Afton in the movie a motive like... I hate to break it to you but most serial killers don't have motives. They mostly do it for a power trip. That's it. That's the reason why they are scary and fucked up. Because they have no reason to be doing what they are doing. Him not having a motive is actually the most realistic way he could've been portrayed to show how much of a monster he is.

#text #fnaf #fnaf movie #five nights at freddy's #five nights at freddy's movie #also the reminent bs in the games story is dumb af sorry #hes better when hes a guy killing kids just for the hell of it #because killers irl do that and its why the whole situation felt so horrifying and fucked up

wild that I just saw a poll about the watcher situation asking what people expect their response to be and the option sweeping was “they won’t respond to it”. like. that would be absolutely insane. maybe a lot of people have become jaded by big corporate entities ignoring issues as if theyre just not happening (understandable) but watcher Very Literally cant afford to not acknowledge the situation. like yeah this was a very corporate-adjacent, out of touch choice they just made but they're still, in the scheme of things, Quite small. completely ignoring the backlash could/would very likely ruin their careers and burn everything they've worked for and I just don’t think that’s realistic

#kibumblabs #i just can not see why anyone would think they wony respond at all to the situation #mind you i dont mean adequately try and Fix it particularly. i mean give a public response of any kind. in general #but i mean even so- i also dont think theyll respond like. sorry we're not changing anything. sucks to suck. #because like i said. they Really can not afford to do that #granted i guess they wete financially stupid/reckless enough to make such a dumb unsurveyed choice to begin with. but. #i mean when your whole career is on the line. i imagine you'd have to get scared into backtracking a bit right? #ah. anyway it is odd none of them have said anything yet but hopefully that means theyre actually thinking through what to do/say before #accidentally implying something they dont mean or making personal emotion-fueled tweets or anything like that #they couldve said by now 'we see your concern and are discussing how to move forward'. or whatever but. yeah #watcher

[I’m being grumpy about knowing too much about the histories of various royal families again don’t mind me]

Seeing a whole post about the absurdity of Zuko being firelord that takes his being seventeen as the most absurd element and I’m just sitting here massaging my temples bc like listen. Look. I get that having a seventeen year old running a country is not actually a good idea. But that doesn’t mean it hasn’t, historically, happened kind of a lot

#atla #there’s just. there’s a lot of precedent here #in fact historically your king being a whole 17 years old when he inherits is usually a #thank god he’s a legal adult we don’t have to figure out a regent #kind of situation #seventeen meant something VERY DIFFERENT even just a century ago #it’s just. I’m sitting here reading the post going hE’S SEveNtEen like it’s the wildest thing in the world and it’s just. not. #’he’s seventeen’ okay and? #it’s extremely likely he’s already been considered an adult for at least a year if not longer #does that mean I don’t think he gets up to some stupid teenage shit? no ofc not. he’s also ZUKO #of course he gets up to dumb shit #but like. him being seventeen is just not that weird

every day i think about the ansur plot in act 3 could've actually had emotional weight if larian studios gave a shit about wyll. damn.

#like the whole gauntlet is about expressing the type of heroism that wyll has striven for his entire life. #the way the quest is so prototypical in it's fairy tale sensibility of the honest and true hero awaking a dragon under the city and - #saving the day and he goes through this whole gauntlet that's a test of how well he ascribes to the ideals of balduran and his father - #and everything he ever clung to to validate himself to himself after being coerced into mizora's deal as a 17 year old kid and then - #he succeeds! he passes the tests! only to find that ansur (literally named answer) is an undead abomination you have to put down #like it's SO SAD. and to me a big part of his story is accepting who HE is. seeing himself outside of his deal w mizora or what his father #wanted him to be and the fact that wyll isn't allowed to have a big emotional reaction to the ansur situation is so annoying #in fact wyll doesn't EVER get to have an emotional reaction to anything bc larian studios doesn't care enough to flesh his story out - #despite giving him one of the most interesting ideas for a character in the game! like act 3 should be WYLL'S act! he's so tied into - #everyone important in that act that it's actually a crime that he's sidelined the most there and he doesn't have enough vocal fans - #that larian studios will ever care enough to patch his story or add anything like they did for karlach or astarion. it's so dumb. #and it sucks that the writers don't recognize wyll's abuse bc his abuser is a hot devil lady. what she does to him is sick. god. #anyway. whatever. #baldur's gate 3 #my posts #.txt

percy is not oblivious. he notices and chooses not to deal with it

#he plays dumb all the time lol #this is about the whole love triangle situation especially #percy jackson #pjo #✏️

lrb there was some drama with mha twt vs jjk twt the other day over gojo unsealing vs dabi reveal n I hate to say horikoshi was in his bag w something cuz I think that man desperately needs a ghost writer but the dabi reveal was actually pretty well done. looking back on that vs gojo unsealing just makes the latter look worse

#I think comparing manga constantly is dumb but I'd say these were both situations that were highly anticipated n had similar importance #n gojo simply was not moving the masses like dabi was #like the whole dabi dance outrended the election

Rui connects nenerobo to the World Wide Web for enrichment purposes (she got bored and started using the flamethrower he installed for evil & while that *is* fascinating nene told him the next time her carpet gets singed she’s pointing nenerobo at his house) & within like a day nenerobo is cyber bullying shousuke ootori on twitter and collecting a data base of every curse word so she can drop them at opportune times

#it’s a whole ibm watson situation but with a fully sentient ai so she *knows* she’s cursing #robonene watching tsukasa do his dumb self introduction: I have a homophobic slur to say #nene: what the fuck did you do to her. rui: don’t worry she can reclaim :) nene: not what I’m asking. #project sekai #‘why is she cyber bullying shousuke ootori’ nene shit talked him to nenerobo after he insulted emu #& nenerobo never forgave him. also because it’s funny. #nenerobo also has beef from the boat crashing I know this in my heart. #‘you SUBMERGE nenerobo? you throw her in the ocean like the beachball? oh! oh! jail for shousuke! jail for a million years!’

[noahtally-famous]

not me popping back on here with a post after months of semi-inactivity (uni is being a bitch) just to reiterate how much i love writing the pahkitew island cast.

aside from sammy and amy (obviously), literally everyone else can be shipped with one another and it'd make sense to some degree, like it takes skill to create a group of people so inherently shippable (platonically and/or romantically) and ofc the writers didn't know it they just shoved a bunch of random ppl together and dusted their hands off on it but fr tho 😭

(yeah im planning out my leonave 'stranger things inspired' au, and the gears are turning, and i forgot just how much i love writing for this dumbass group)

(i swear im working on the next chapter of a guide to surviving the apocalypse too)

#no but i've way too many ideas lmaoo #i forgot ive a whole longass post in my drafts dedicated to ramblings abt this longfic and i came across it today ahaha #like amy leading a manhunt for leonard bc shes got everyone to think he killed her sister (who she didn't even like much smh) #and topher's one of the ppl involved and when shawn hears he's like “topher? yeah i can handle him dw” (possible tophawn minor pairing??) #and leonard's abt to get the equivalent of being burnt at the stake literally #when guess who shows up in a fucking mercedes of all cars #fucking dave #and he helps leonard escape narrowly by driving fast af and leonard's so confused bc like “i thought you'd be with those guys” #and get this: dave doesnt believe leonard killed sammy bc of his vehement belief that leonard doesn't know magic LMAOOO #and leonard doesnt know whether to be affronted or grudgingly thankful bc if it wasn't for dave's desire for everything to be normal #leonard would have been part of the witch trials 2.0 #and idk who's watched st but the plot is somewhat inspired by it #like shawn goes missing first and dave as his best friend is panicking abt it (in this one axel is shawns cousin???) #and then when they find him at last the weird deaths start leading to leonard finding sammy dead and this whole situation #and theres a whole different world underneath them and its up to leonard dave ella and sky to team up and prevent certain destruction #and theres slowburn leonave (with pining leonard and oblivious dave) #and leonard lives with his uncle whos understanding of his passions (unlike his dad who basically gave him away for the same reason) #and leonard's life is total opppsite from dave's #and they both know it #and omgggg this au has been a brainrot for so goddamn long #but idk why i just got a slew of ideas for it today #and like dave stays over at leonards at one point and leonard gives him his bed (like a gentleman) #and the next morning shawn barges in like “wheres my best friend” bc ever since he was taken he's been v paranoid abt losing the ppl he lov #and he hugs dave and daves like “how dirty are you rn” and shawns like “nothing yet i waited so that i can hug you when i see your dumb ass #and everyones like abt dave to leonard “idk if he's the right one for you” #but then later on dave saves his life by going a little bit unhinged classic dave-style #and ends up scaring a nurse and receptionist into retiring early #total drama #td leonard #td dave

I wonder if the star wars writers understand why we like characters like Anakin and Ben more than Luke and Leia..

They've spent nine movies now telling us that the rigidity of the Jedi/sith set up is the root of all their problems, how balance is crucial, how people aren't entirely one or the other, they're some ratio of both light and dark.

Deciding that Ben didn't get a chance to live after he finally sheds the last of his shame and fear and embraces himself is kinda silly no? The whole set up of the fight with palp was kinda silly no? Rey suddenly can't kill one very bad guy when she can whoosh whoosh a hundred faceless stormtroopers because then she might be haunted by/inherit some ghost dude??? Even though she ends up killing him anyway and isn't the sith reincarnated or something? What actually was the point of that fight? What was the point of Ben dying at that moment?

They spent the past couple movies talking about these supposed visions both Ben and Rey had about their futures together, so were they not visions, just dreams? Or did the writers just sort of give up on the concept of follow through? I thought the whole point of their COLLECTIVE journeys in this trilogy was overcoming their pasts and obstacles and then returning balance to the galaxy hand in hand? They did a whole thing about hands for three movies that was clearly important was it not?

But he dies, in her arms, after giving his entire life force to her, and she just moves on? Keep it chugging along? The other half of her is dead and she's gonna what? Be on the committee to restore peace to the galaxy? She's just gonna keep living, with a new love interest or whatever else they imagine? Like, realistically what is it they imagine comes next? That's not a happy or hopeful ending

#i need someone smarter than me to say im clearly dumb and not looking at it right i guess #what was the point of calling them dyads. introducing the concept of forcebonds to me the casual audience and then just killing him lol #it doesnt actually make sense and it doesnt seem productive #he needs to live to carry on after leias death... and be at reys side. like that was what they built up to for three movies #he and rey have very similar wishes for the future of the galaxy and they will rule equally and balanced #or whatever #not saying they wouldnt have a council or anything else but still #even if we accept the whole rey palp situation that only further tells me they want her to have a big role in the galaxy after all this #shes a figurehead as a jedi but also as a resistance fighter a pilot etc #a living legend like luke was #star wars #reylo #rey from nowhere #rey of jakku
