you guys ever notice how in his dialogue when he's in bertie's presence, jeeves uses quotations and references constantly, but in his THOUGHTS during "bertie changes his mind," he doesn't use any? this is obviously because he doesn't care if we the audience know he knows shakespeare, but he will languish and die if he doesn't get to dazzle bertie with his wit and knowledge every five seconds

#ok actually you know what #this post was supposed to just be a joke #but then i started thinking #the audience jeeves is presumably writing for in bertie changes his mind is new and aspiring valets #members of his own class #to whom he probably feels he has less to prove #but when he's talking to rich people who are liable to look down their noses at him #he needs them to know how smart he is #though he is ALSO a dramatic secret theater kid who's addicted to his crush's attention and admiration #that's very much part of it too #// #jeeves and wooster #jeeves books #bertie changes his mind #carry on jeeves #reginald jeeves #jooster

my favorite thing about loyalty missions in mass effect 2, aside from how absurd of a concept they are already, is that none of them are made equally

like on the one hand you have missions like mordin’s, which require you to make the extremely difficult decision of whether or not to keep the research results that could potentially cure the genophage, which will have MASSIVE implications for the inevitable clash between the krogan and turians/salarians in the near future

and on the other hand you’ve got people like jacob who show up and go “my dad sucks” and then you find his dad go “wow your dad SUCKS lol put this man UNDER the jail” and now jacob will survive the swarm of alien bees 20 hours from now

#mass effect #mass effect 2 #like hmmm surely helping zaeed chase down some guy is the same as *checks notes* #helping tali exonerate herself and letting her gain political leverage among the admirals for the looming war to retake rannoch #yes because these two things carry the same weight lol #you could make the argument blah blah roleplay some ppl need help w/ things personal to them and only them #and some people are entangled in something bigger and need help yadda yadda WHATEVER that’s not as funny tho ❤️

okay that low-key sounds like a bad idea but what if you did a poll for the ugliest character so the whole purpose of propaganda would be to be possibly meanest to your unfave

What a great idea @leftcolornacho! I'm going to implement it in the worst way possible!

Thank you @femmefighter for helping me pick options, and for warning me I was about to get enough hate-mail to build a Death Star replica with.

This is a one-and-done poll. Choose your votes wisely, and please keep the death threats to a respectful minimum ;)

In case I wasn't clear enough: this is a joke. If I see people taking this seriously I'm gonna die laughing and then nobody will be able to hand out emoji medals when the hottest man/woman polls wrap up.

The way you draw hands, they are so expressive. So tender looking in their intent. I'm just in awe. I'm not a religious person at all but the first word to comes to mind when seeing the hands you draw is that they are somehow holy.

Aw geez anon, you're saying the sweetest things. Thank you!

#I know I keep repeating the same thing but I just really admire hands a lot and try to do them justice #they're so structurally complex #and have such great emotive potential #they're still challenging to get right but it's mostly the nice kind of challenging and not I-want-to-quit-drawing-forever challenging #in Machete's and Vasco's case I do my best to underline the differences in their personalities through hand gestures #I don't know how well that carries over but I think it's fun #in my head they have clearly contrasting body languages #answered #anonymous

Bolas vs. Soulfire = band kids vs. choir kids

#as a former choir kid #there is something about the Misery of soulfire that reminds me of choir #and half my friends are in band so i'll say bolas definitely has that band kid energy- the noise. the horrors faced with teeth bared #by the horrors i mean carrying horn instruments and marching #band kids are the closest thing you get to hyenas in the school ecosystem. i admire this about them #the point is. girls girls you're so similar. none of you are the cool kids and you all have teeth #in conclusion. yes #(slightly feverish while posting this) #qsmp #qsmp purgatory #bolas rojas #team soulfire #team bolas #soulfire

I hc that after going to the ascendancy Ronan immediately died cuz he caught some wild space disease he didn’t have immunity to and perished like a victorian child

#realistically anakin should’ve died that way too #u can’t just take an unvaccinated child from tatooine to CORUSANT and expect him to live #there are millions of different aliens carrying diseases from millions of different planets #it’s like putting a newborn baby in an infectious disease ward #HE DOESNT HAVE IMMUNITY TO DISEASES HES NEVER BEEN OFF THE PLANET #ani would’ve gotten space smallpox a week in and perished #star wars #thrawn trilogy #thrawn alliances #thrawn treason #grand admiral thrawn #mitth’raw’nuruodo #brierly ronan

im 5'4 and have a crush on a 7'2 man (hes a basketball player) but it will never work out our height difference is too awkward

my initial response was "what do u mean SEVEN???" but you know what....i am a perennial optimist and believe we are all souls first so i would venture for anyone THAT tall every height difference south of like, idk, 6ft 8 is already very awkward so who knows!!! maybe 6ft and 5ft are all the same from his majestic californian redwood vista ! (tall people absolutely feel free to correct me)

#ask #Anonymous #i admire ur heart truly mine would get no chances my brain would have stopped at his ribcage and tapped every organ OUT the moment it #realised he could carry us around in his gym bag like a chihuahua #MASSIVELY fun as that sounds ngl

Hal is the favorite uncle

One of my favorite headcanons is to think that Hal is the favorite uncle of all the kids around him.

I feel like his partners' colleagues always came up to him to ask about his space missions (of course Hal used to brag too much about his heroic deeds and the kids believed it blindly, especially Wally) and also Hal used to share embarrassing anecdotes about his mentors.

Hal may not have had a pupil like his friends, but still all of their pupils loved him very much.

Since Hal is the kind of prankster uncle who gives advice without being asked and would actively participate in the pranks, but he would also be the kind of guy who would defend his babys from whomever he is, that includes his own friends.

It is likely that on more than one occasion the children have jumped the instructions of the league and acted when they should not have acted, which then leads them to be all of them sitting with their heads down listening to the scolding and punishment that will be meted out to them; until Hal, who hadn't heard what was happening, walks around the area and listens to them and, of course, jumps to the children's defense.

He advocates for all the kids and probably gets into a heated argument with Batman (just as he usually does) and ends with a scolding from Diana for Bruce and Hal, but at least Hal leaves the place with his small victory.

Distract the team enough to focus on scolding him and not the kids.

(Probably later Hal talks to the kids calmly and explains that although what they did was amazing, they shouldn't put themselves in danger like that and also the league has a much calmer conversation with the babys.)

But that's the idea.

About a Hal who would defend any of his nephews in the league, though it's also a bit apparent that Hal has a soft spot for some guys more than others.

An example would be Roy and Wally, since he spends more time actively with them, is more involved in his personal life and because he saw them grow in a close and personal way.

#hal jordan #dc comics #justice league #Hal is the guy everyone would like to have. #Hal is the cool uncle #The kids love their Uncle Hal #Hal probably also gives them constructive criticism to improve their jokes. #And evidently he is the first to laugh when they carry them out. #especially when they are Batman #I love the relationship Wally has with Hal. #Always talking about him as his uncle and actively admiring him #And the few interactions I've seen of Roy and Hal are sweet too

The thing is I am definitely not happy or chill in the Immediate Sense lately but I am, big picture, so fucking happy with the person I am.

It's like. My brain was made by and for consistent trauma and since that trauma stopped about 5-7 years ago, it is incredible what the amount of resilience and cleverness and flexibility and thoughtfulness I developed to survive can do when it's not being all spent on surviving. like I had a hundred ton weight on me so I had to get REALLY STRONG to stay in the same place and not get 100% crushed, and when that weight came off I found I can use the strength it used to take to stand up and I can leap tall buildings in a single bound.

I was talking to my mum the other day and she said, "you've got the 'fuck it' energy at 30 that most women don't find until their fifties at least" and I'm like yeah man. Imagine how unstoppable I'll be in 20 years.

#red said #i don't know that i can express this clearly but it's the most encouraging thing in my life #my mum's always been proud of me but just lately she seems to actually really admire me #like she's genuinely impressed. she thinks I've surpassed her. i don't necessarily agree but it's a really nice quiet joy. #anyway like this sounds super up myself and it kind of is. #but also it's part of realising just how heavy the weight I've been carrying around with me for 25 years was #like not to be ridiculous but i have realised again this week. that it isn't that everyone's been raped that much and doesn't talk about it #i just have been raped an Unusually Consistent Amount. i have spoken to a lot of people who have had much more horrifying things happen. #I'm not sure I've talked to more than a couple of people who've had a similar level of total consistency of abuse from all angles #and the one is not heavier or harder to bear that the other. but. i think i spent most of my life listening to people's awful experiences #and going ok well nothing i went through looked that bad so it's microtrauma #obviously microtraumas build up but still. #then the older i get and the more i have these conversations the more I notice that stuff which to me is a microtrauma #is a lot of people's defining trauma. and they're reacting appropriately which means i am SO SEVERELY UNDERREACTING #told my friend the other day about a time someone who i still like and respect was having sex with me when i paralocated my hip #and then just kept getting really annoyed with me for not being ready to have sex again while i was literally crying with pain #until i caved and just tried to find the last painful position #and my friend was like pal what the fuck that's horrific #and i was like i mean no that's normal I've had sex with like maybe 3 or 4 people in my life who i haven't had similar stuff with #like i am genuinely thrown when i am allowed to say no to sex and have it be the end of the conversation. and not end up having sex #out of guilt or out of physical coercion or through physical rape. and i have had sex with probably like 40 people at this stage? #and I'm not sure it's as many as 4 i haven't had that experience with tbh #so like. I'm slowly coming to terms with the idea #that i may have actually been doing a hell of a lot of heavy lifting. #like i developed a sense of self that can survive being constantly crushed and at this stage is fucking diamond.

Grumpy Chiss and that Space Witch from that show about the chick with the white laser swords whose Canon I am largely ignoring because it wasn't that great tbh.

If anyone has screencaps of either of them, pls send them my way, thanks <3

[autismmydearwatson]

Really bad headcanon that Thrawn cam hear the star wars soundtrack and he knew Vader was Anakin because he recognized the Imperial March from the motif that played whenever Anakin was feeling evil

#yes of course he knows how awesome his own theme is why do you think he carries himself that way #star wars #thrawn #grand admiral thrawn

[cogentranting]

Thrawn is digging into Ahsoka's background, which explicitly includes Anakin, and that seems likely to lead to Thrawn figuring out that her master was Vader. Which means I need Anakin popping in as a force ghost so he and Thrawn can snipe at each other as petty, bitter ex-coworkers who didn't get along.

#ahsoka series #ahsoka spoilers #grand admiral thrawn #anakin skywalker #I want a level of pettiness that you might see between two characters on the office #I want talking head Office style interviews with anakin and thrawn #and throw in krennic and tarkin #I want a workplace comedy about the bureaucratic rivalries with Krennic Tarkin vader and Thrawn #and then carried on into the present with force ghost anakin
