Guy Gardner is also MY current fixation, and I just did a powerpoint on him for my friend group powerpoint night 🫡 god speed, and good luck on that powerpoint

oh god BLESS you fellow soldier, spreading the Good News

I've been obsessed with him for like fifteen years now and it's only gotten *worse* lmaooo. The hardest part will be keeping it under seven minutes. How do I contain such multitudes. How do I make EVERYONE IN THE ROOM LOVE HIM

At least one slide will be nothing but a wall to wall collage of Pat Gleason's Guy faces

#it's literally impossible but that's a burden i'm willing to bear #but what is the SCOPE?#do i include warrior? do i include his yellow ring era? do i explain the nonsense of the star sapphires just to gush about his wearing one?#or do i just have page after page of LOOK HOW MUCH HE LOVES HIS FRIENDS #these are the questions to which i do not yet have answers #asks #my post #guy gardner #powerpoints #tumblr tracks more than five tags now doesn't it? oh well

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #xue yang #a-qing #The scenes with XY and A-Qing are so delightfully tense and anxiety inducing #They are both so deep in the mind games with each other.

I love him so much actually.#through writing these notes I have also gone down the rabbit hole of trying to pinpoint Xue Yang's age. Hello? Is it actually not known?#The best resources I could find put him as 1-3 years younger then xxc and song lan #So? early twenties? late teens? Someone who has absorbed more mdzs knowledge...Please help #Oh no I'm even deeper in the rabbit hole now.

On tumblr lately:

A sexually harassing copypasta goes around to trans women/fems and suddenly all trans men/mascs are the transmisogynists responsible for this.

When a similar harassing copypasta went around to trans men/mascs, people refused to care because we’re “transandrophobia truthers” anyway and deserve it. Or, at very least, if the issue mattered even slightly at all, all trans women/fems weren’t to blame.

A handful of posts from trans men/mascs about how trans men and women shouldn’t be fighting and “should be fucking/making out” get made. All trans men/mascs are being held responsible for this, and any discussion of transandrophpbia should be dismissed even harder as a result.

But when there were trans men/mascs and trans women/fems against transandrophobia saying THE SAME THINGS in posts as a way to dismiss transandrophobia? No, that’s a good thing. Dismissing trans men/mascs as sex objects is fine, but if they make the same posts to dismiss our dismissal they’re wrong for treating trans women/fems like sex objects.

I’m not seeing the supposed “extra grace” that gets afforded to trans men/mascs going on here.

#my post #transandrophobia #to be clear: this is about a phenomenon in tumblr queer spaces #this is not really relevant beyond that scope #but considering tumblr is where we are and where I’m doing my talking #that’s what I’m making a post about

"Time goes by, everything changes, yet our bond remains unwavered. You once promised me that you will always be by my side, no matter what. And now, when it is time for you to leave, I must follow you to where no human can even dream to step. This way only will your promise remain unchanged. And may my curse once again be a blessing."

Kingdom Hearts 2 - The World That Never Was

#kingdom hearts 2 #kh2 #the world that never was #my gif #scenery #<- new tag :] check it out to view all of my gifs that showcase kh worlds #OKAY finally done giffing every world in this game #these take a lot of time and effort but it's worth it i think! they're fun to browse through #this world was really difficult because even though it has an amazing aesthetic a lot of these rooms are basically just hallways #BUT #the sheer scope of these rooms is VERY impressive #what i mean is if you're able to pull the camera out or take a moment to look out the windows you'll see just how much of #the castle and surrounding environment you can see. seriously it's huge and there's a lot you might have never known was there #unfortunately though it was not possible for me to capture a whole lot of that because the in game first person camera can only do so much

what does it mean when people say stuff like individual morality or action is incompatible with class analysis or class struggle?

alright so like one of the key ideas about class analysis is the idea that classes (as a whole) have economic interests that affect all their members but don't extrapolate out to an individual analysis.

for example, let's say that you can't find a job, and somebody offers to pay you below the table for below minimum wage. it's in your individual interest to do this--it beats having no job! but as a member of the working class, once this practice becomes normalized, suddenly the standards of pay for everyone are lower because people know that they can just pay less than minimum wage under the table. competition between workers for jobs drives wages down for everyone, leaving them all in a worse situation overall even if each individual choice to scab, to accept lower pay, to resist unionization, etc, leaves the person who makes it better off. cf. karl marx on what happens when wages and working conditions deteriorate:

The labourer seeks to maintain the total of his wages for a given time by performing more labour, either by working a great number of hours, or by accomplishing more in the same number of hours. Thus, urged on by want, he himself multiplies the disastrous effects of division of labour. The result is: the more he works, the less wages he receives. And for this simple reason: the more he works, the more he competes against his fellow workmen, the more he compels them to compete against him, and to offer themselves on the same wretched conditions as he does; so that, in the last analysis, he competes against himself as a member of the working class.

— Karl Marx, Wage Labour & Capital

similarly, any individual member of the working class is completely dispensable and replaceable by capital. if one person refuses to work unless they're paid a higher wage, they'll be fired and replaced with somebody who doesn't. the individual worker has no economic leverage whatsoever. but the working class has incredible economic leverage! and so does the intermediate stage between the working class and the individual--organized segments of the working class (e.g. trade unions) have economic leverage. if one person strikes, the capitalist can fire them. if 40,000 people strike, your industry is going to shut down.

so the reason why class analysis is compatible with individual action is that your incentives measurably change when you start organizing--it's in the interests of the individual to compete, but in the interests of the class to cooperate. and obviously you cannot just expect everyone to spontaneously coordinate! you, the individual, are disposable to capital! if you, personally, refuse to take the under-the-table offer, either on moral grounds or because you recognize your class interest, your neighbour's going to take it--unless you and her get together and agree that neither of you will take it. that's the only way that the guy making the offer is going to have to give in and offer the job for a living wage.

and this is what organization is--trade unions (although they have severe limitations!), communist parties, and other worker's organizations allow the working class to pursue their collective interest--which can only be pursued by collective action, because engaging in the strategies of collective action as an individual, without the cooperation of your peers, is high risk for no reward.

#ask #marxism #the effects of electoral politics are far far more limited in scope than trade union activity but the same holds for voting #which is what the original post i was responding to was about #if you 'vote blue no matter who' then the bourgeois party you're showing loyalty to--#--will have no reason whatsoever to even marginally offer to improve your life #and if you as a solitary individual tell joe biden 'well im not voting for you unless you promise so and so social democratic reforms'#he is gonna be like lol lmao dont care #while if you and your several thousand friends all get together and say that #he will at least be obligated to pretend to care before immediately reneging on it bc he ultimately serves capital

Are trans women real women?

As opposed to what. Fictional? A mannequin? Unreal in the sense that it's unreal how bomb she is?

(tags V relevant)

#Inventing boxes around people never works. There's no parameter for real or not real that doesn't allow for discrimination #If a woman says she is a woman then she is a woman. It is not my business to comment on how ''''real'''' it is #Based on what?? The hell kind of authority am I??? I'm some fuckin dude.#It does not matter to me what pronouns or what chromosomes or what presentation someone has #If you tell me you're a woman okay you're a woman. You know better than me. What kind of douchebag would I be to contest that #Short answer: trans women are as real women as any women. It doesn't change anything.#Are he/him women women? Are drag queens women? Are femboys women? I don't speak for them why don't you ask them to their face #By which I mean get a scope on their experience and opinion. And don't ask the person who LOUDLY DOESN'T LIKE FIRM LABELS.#Not an art

thinking a lot about leverage crossovers and the one currently on my mind is a spy x family one

parker and eliot coincidentally ‘move in’ (set up headquarters) into the empty apartment next to the forgers and immediately clock something really fucking weird is going on.

sophie knows a grift when she sees one and can smell that fake-marriage-fake-family from a mile away

breanna pretends to be a few years younger and gets enrolled as sophie and harry’s adopted child (adoption? THE ELEGANCE!!!). she keeps noticing this one really young girl giving her really obvious stares (that her friend keeps trying to shake her out of doing). breanna knows something is up with that kid but is too busy doing her part of the con to figure out exactly what

hardison (who is back from space) has been spending most of his time as hacker in the apartment set up, shut in so that he doesn’t blow parker and eliot’s cover as newlyweds by randomly coming and going. and the living situation? oh no. it’s only a one bedroom apartment and there’s only one bed and three of them.

it all comes to a head when parker is sneaking through the school at the same time as loid, both so quiet and undetectable that they don’t notice each other until they basically stumble into one another. across the city, eliot is taking out some goons that coincidentally got on the garden’s bad side and yor busts down the door like the kool aid man and they both stare at each other like 😐 (the goons are too stunned and weirded out by the sudden vibes in the room to run away)

from there parker and eliot separately try to convince their counterparts that they should come clean to their partners because, trust me, it’ll be fine it will work out for the best because if there’s one thing they can’t do it’s mind their own business lmao

even after they finish their con hardison isn’t letting them leave until the forgers come clean and realize their true feelings because he’s a romantic like that (like y’all aren’t too, I see you parker and eliot)

anya has no idea what’s going on but is having the time of her life and has now also adopted herself a new crime family

it’s now her turn to match make the ot3 into finally getting together (anya can read your mind eliot, you’re DONE FOR)

Hit with this earlier, so am sharing.

But the idea of Hope's Peak is that some people are just better than others. Whether they're born with Talent or fought hard for it or just happen to have it because they needed to survive, they are better than others. Specifically at this one thing they do. Whether or not that's all they'll ever be - regardless of whether or not they want that to be all they'll ever be - they are better than everyone else. And they're chosen to go to this special school because they're better.

The Reserve Course is throw us enough money, and we'll let you say that you're better, even though you're not. It's throw us money for the name and prestige. It's throw us money because everyone has bought into our school being better and having the people who are better. (Which gives the idea that when companies or teams or whatever are going through resumes, they're also specifically looking for HPA graduates.)

And Hope's Peak is all about how do we make the most Talented most bestest person possible to the point of human experimentation, where they rip apart everything that makes someone human - makes them themselves - just to make them the bestest human being ever.

And Junko starts the Tragedy by basically saying no, that's bullshit, treat everyone equally.

I mean, she says it in a lot of messed up ways, but that's what the Reserve Course riots are about. They're being used as cash cows for something they didn't agree to, they aren't being treated the same as the actual better than you people, and it's one of them who was taken and experimented on to be made the bestest person ever, not one of the better than you people, who is already better than you.

HPA has no concern for the value of an actual human life.

And Junko spits in their face because look, the best of your best, your actual student council, I can make them rip each other apart and look, your human experiment who is supposed to be the bestest person ever is just as bad as everyone else and no, look, they are just. like. everyone else.

So what does HPA do?

They don't learn their lesson.

They take the survivors of the attack on their academy for trying to pretend that some people are just better than others, and again, say you are better than everyone else, the only hope for humanity are you specialist special kids, so we will lock you and only you away, and not even think that other people could possibly stay in this honking huge building we have here, it's only for the specialist special people and they will make everything better once they get out!

Of course, Junko's going to throw a Killing Game with them.

They aren't better than everyone else.

That's the entire point.

They fall to the exact same problems that even your everyday normal person does: threat to loved ones, not wanting their secrets told, money, backstabbing - they are exactly the same as everyone else, and their Talent doesn't suddenly make them better people.

Fuck off with that some people are naturally better than others bullshit. You all suck.

Junko's the Ultimate Despair because she looks at the whole of humanity and sees that everyone is equally horrible (which is true).

Makoto's the Ultimate Hope because he looks at the whole of humanity and sees that everyone is equally able to change (which is also true).

#musings #danganronpa #junko enoshima #makoto naegi #i want to get into more of it with regards to #cultural stuff?#but i think that's beyond my scope #because it would be built on what little i understand of the culture #and i'm not #i do not have enough the knowledge on that one
