big problem with the perimeter covering videos is that they restart my "dig a big hole" disease. like i had plans. i have builds i wanna make. i also should be asleep. instead im selecting the perfect chunks to build a hole straight to bedrock. in my hardcore world. i am sure this will have 0 consequences.

#bo hardcore #did i wake up early to play minecraft before the day starts?? you cant prove anything. #my coworkers ask if i did anything fun this weekend and i think the fact that i dont drink much makes me seem like. very straightlaced. #like they all assume im married bc i never go out. but really its that if i were hungover on a weekend i could not wake up early to dig a

Your scarab design is inspiring me to go out into the open and present a little more fem than usual. For the longest time I’ve hated having a feminine chest and always worn clothes to kind of cover up because thats what I assumed would make me feel better but your scarab has helped me try to experiment more with my gender and go out in public without a binder and with my hair down(I have long straight hair that I usually keep up and brushed back so I don’t get misgendered). Hopefully my pronoun pin will help people see me as a guy, but, if not- eh. It’s what feels good to me that matters, not how others see me. They couldn’t understand anyways. Medium tity long hair boy in the neighborhood ‼️

yes ! ! im so glad !

honestly doing this for yourself can be the most liberating thing, dressing and presenting how you want and that makes you feel like you is the best thing you can do. its terrible but those who dont respect your identity wont try to, so why dress for them? dress for yourself ! n' those who are close to you will (i hope) support you !

#asks #i stand with you as a fellow long hair transmasc guy #dress how you want ! ! #i know there are folks out there thatll never see me as a guy and you know what ! screw em ! who cares ! i dont need to prove myself to the #cause i know theyll never like it

Look, I just think it's VERY funny and on brand that I thought of an entire premise of colorful characters for half the cast and immediately drew the only one void of color.

#my characters #i will not bore you all too much in the main post but now its story time in the tags so yeefuckinghaw #noll is a fae and is distinctly the only one that just lacks colors #at first he was like well surely i can wear colorful stuff to make up for my dark hair and eyes ! #and then he overhears some of the fae talking about how hes a blemish to the fae and hes like well fuck #guess its time to go all in baby! and decks himself out in all black and jagged clothing #and he tries to play it off as hes an idiot and a lot of the fae actually believe its not ALL an act #like they can tell he thinks about stuff but he normally does it staring into space so they dont care to ask #cause surely it isnt important enough to brood about hes just thinking about stuff #and he really REALLY has a lot of confidence issues and worries that more fae are disturbed by his darkness than let on #but then the other fae that like to hang out with him are like #YOOOOOO THATS OUR LIL VOID! THATS OUR LIL GUY! our lil black spot look at him hes so edgy and cute! #and treat him like a pet cat at times giving him head pats even if he bats their hands away #and the plot premise is that some of the fae are bored and decide they should go play with some humans! give THEM enrichment too! #and noll gets roped into it and The Game is basically go find a human partner and convince them to be an ally #then the fae give the humans cool lil toys (weapons) and are like GO FORTH MY CHAMPION! #so noll keeps like ... not picking anyone to participate because its not just A Game to him #if he can prove victorious in A Game with outside factors such as humans then he can prove hes not #an absolute disappointment to the fae like he has a lot riding on this in his mind #and his friends are just like buddy you cant even play if you dont pick a human you gotta #anyway here is noll and then i have ideas for two other fae and also a veeeery vague idea for two of the humans though not as sure yet #rae if you read all this you should know the cobalt is a fae thanks bye #i am so stressed posting ocs every single time and i am incredibly depressed and anxious #so good lord please let me not just delete all the tags in an hour bc im ashamed

I'm aware that the message of the final episode of saiki k (when he finally stopped the volcano) is that you may not know your friends completely, everyone have thoughts or things about themselves that they hide for fear, shame or more reasons but that's okay

you will never know a person completely and it doesn't need to be something bad, it's something normal, the thing is that you must accept that fact

maybe wait until the other is ready to spill the tea or just accept that you may never know

saiki's friends may not know saiki completely, at the end they accept it in the episode and wait for him to be ready because that's what friends are for

at least that's the message I got

but damn

I wish they were a little bit more insistent

I know that it could had been a cliché ending if he revealed his powers on the last episode butbutbut

#power reveals are my weak point #💥THEM💥 #nendo and his emotional rant made me sob #saiki knows ALMOST everything about his friend #but they dont know the most important thing about him #and that thing unlock a lot more #just look how he is with the psyckikers #you cant deny how much he loves to do his stupid silly trick with the spoon #or how sarcastic and snarky he is with them #also he asked for help multiple times because they were the only ppl around who knew and the only ppl HE COULD TRUST #kusuo is himself when ppl knows about his secret and you cant prove me wrong #because if they accepted it then they'll probably accept everything else right??? #saiki k #the disastrous life of saiki k #saiki's friends #thinking thinking thinking #i wrote this in a rush so im sorry if it is unreadable or smt

[bread-that-draws]

Feels a lil stuck up to call myself a "big undertale account" but plenty did reblog my version where I just added a sc of your tags and say that you're based 👍😭 stay based forever op!!

Omg bitches love me for my insane ramblings and my tags that I send out into the world without a second thought like a baby bird

EDIT I DECIDED TO CHECK YOUR ACCOUNT BEFORE POSTING THIS AND LITERALLY JUST NOTICED YOUVE MADE SOME OF MY FAVORITE UT FANART WTF thank you big Undertale account keep making me cry

#IM CRYINGGGGGG I love your art so much I didn’t realize it was you #no wonder this shit blew up #glad we agree on Flowey being the guy ever #it’s about how his appearance is so simple that it throws every player off the scent of this game being more than it is #more than it appears #bc he’s the first one you meet #and that reflects how he ends up being the most important character because you also wouldn’t expect that #it’s about how all Undertale routes are fundamentally about proving his kill or be killed philosophy right or wrong #it’s about when you prove him right he is killed because he didn’t kill you first #therefore solidifying his philosophy #and if you prove him wrong he refutes it altogether #‘don’t kill and don’t be killed okay’ #OUUUUGGGHHHH #he’s my favorite character #AND DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON ASRIEL OH BOYYYYYY #ask #Undertale #Flowey the flower #Flowey

[fure-dcmk]

OP HOW ARE WE FEELING....... THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ALL AROUND...... genuinely distraught... someone take dcmk away from gosho fr...

sorry anon the tone of this ask are not specifically directed to you, its more to the general KS posts i've been seeing on my fyp

don't plan to address this since im not even a KS account but i'm starting to get peeved seeing a bunch of ppl act victimized like gosho did that cuz he personally hates KS shippers

i'm a huge gosho aoyama hater myself but come on that man probably thinks there's nothing wrong with first cousin dating in the first place (addendum one: shuake, addendum two: hanzawa love interest being his own countryside cousin) i'd even dare to say based on his unintentional world view its him encouraging KS shippers instead

for this account i'll make sure to tag any future KS to avoid icking those bothered by the reveal but for the record any KS made by me are not closely related

#they might be distantly related tho cuz that's funnier to me *gunshot* #movie 27 #movie spoiler #asks #personal #sorry for those whose world are crumbling down by this reveal but to me this situation is extremely funny #which is why i dont plan to even address it im not even a KS shipper i dont have the right to laugh publicly when there are- #-people who are genuinely distraught 😭😭 #“but the twincest case! its been protrayed as bad!” yea and twin raw dogging it is illegal while first cousin marriage is legal in jp #just trying to prove what kind of outdated worldview this man has dont shoot the messenger #even saw ppl accusing gosho hating KS shippers cuz they outnumbers his 'beloved' shinran 😂 #if gosho respect shinran that much he wouldn't be pandering to coai. KS shipper is the least of his problem. that man is just a capitalist #speaking of straight ships the shinran vs coai war on chinese and arabic twitter are one of the most obnoxious group of ppl i've ever seen #one of this days im gonna do a rant on that

[corviiids]

genuinely so sorry to slide into your dm's like this, not sure that this is proper tumblr etiquette, etc., but i just got so excited when i read in your sayu-gets-the-death-note ask that you've been trying to talk yourself out of doing an entire statutory interpretation of the manga death note rules because i've been trying to talk myself out doing an entire metaphysical interpretation of the manga death note rules, so... if you, like me, simply cannot talk yourself out of a stupid idea once it sinks its claws in your brain and would at some point like to share notes about I THINK one of the sexiest and most broken parts of this series, i'd be delighted.

oh my god dont apologise im just excited a single person on earth besides me is interested in a pseudo-legal (very pseudo) perspective on the death note rules. high fives you. for the most part im just incredibly impressed that they manage to retain so much internal consistency especially since so many of them have the vibe of, like, random amendments which were included just for funsies. it's incredible they don't overtly contradict each other. ive been obsessed with them since i first saw them and have already spent way too much time reading over them but yeah i'd honestly love to dig into them more. HTR13 does organise them into something closer to Parts or Divisions which makes the structure a little more coherent. it drives me nuts that sometimes a numbered rule will have sub-provisions that have absolutely nothing to do with each other. drafting that gives me a stress migraine

#asks #death note #dont get me fucking started on rule 67. the moment i read that story i just threw my hands up #look the fact that the magic system is run based on this set of strict rules which ARE #CANONICALLY #written in A BOOK which can be READ. by shinigami. like this is a LEGAL SYSTEM this is a piece of LEGISLATION #and YET in a-kira they introduce rule 67 which proves that not only can new provisions be drafted in at any time #but they can be applied RETROACTIVELY? #you cant fucking DO that! that completely delegitimises your entire rule system. like what the fuck #also who's fucking enforcing this? is it the shinigami king? is the power of the rules vested in the shinigami king? is he the source of th #power or its arbiter? who's taking care of the drafting? what's in that fucking book #anyway #ANYWAY #NONE OF THIS MATTERS TO ANYONE EXCEPT ME

[anotherpapercut]

I went to a show tonight and decided to get a CD from one of the bands and the guy asked me if I actually listen to CDs or just collect them lol

#not in a prove youre a real music fan kind of way more just making conversation i just thought it was funny #i asked what cds they had and he was like this is our first one dont buy it ill give it to you for free #and this is our full length. ill also give it to you for free. #i was like thats ok lol ill pay for this one. it was only $3! ofc ill buy it bro lmao i was planning to buy both! #he also gave me a little matchbook #earlier in the night hed come up to thank me for coming out and at first i was reading smth abt fob and not paying attention #but then i realized what was going on and i was like im so fucking sorry i was zoned the fuck out #he was nice. i wonder if he gives all the theys free cds

[oceanwithouthermoon]

something something kuboyasu was never really held much even as a kid so he finds it shockingly relaxing to be with someone as strong as saiki who can carry him around like he weighs the same as an apple and spoil the hell out of him

running and jumping into kusuos arms for absolutely no reason and clinging to him like a monkey.. taking turns carrying each other to bed bridal/princess style.. getting waist hugs from behind despite kusuo being significantly smaller and being entirely covered by arens back (mf levitates just to rest his head on his shoulder, while aren can just stand up behind him and almost rest his chin on kusuos head☠️)..

#they both act like bratty girlfriends im so serious prove me wrong #kusuo in a 'i dont want to admit that i want u to spoil me' way #and aren in a 'i admittedly love when u spoil me but im still gonna tease u instead of asking. tease me back.' way #theyre still both gentlemenly though of course #especially kuboyasu #theyre just very silly and i love that for them #saiki k #tdlosk #the disastrous life of saiki k. #saiki kusuo #kuboyasu aren #kubosai #meows post

it's okay give atreus a couple of years he'll have a fade/tape-up and timbs and/or black air forces

[gibbearish]

btw its interesting the way james tries to imply that like. well the videos that have plagiarism are the ones our dumb stupid annoying patrons requested about bad topics that didnt deserve to have the effort put in to covering them well so basically its fine. like obv thats interesting on its own but moreso the fact that he doesnt actually /say/ it, or like. give a list of the videos hes referring to, just says "those videos are very clear on which ones they were" i think as a nod meaning like "yknow the ones everyones talking about". unless what hes meaning is that like they put a note in certain videos saying "this video was requested by a patron, we here at james somertom incorporated do not espouse these views" which seems unlikely to me. idk methinks maybe it's because there is indeed a lot more than people think and with all the buzz he's not sure which ones have been discovered yet or not, so putting down a solid list that missed some would look like he was still hiding things whereas putting down a fully sourced list would be admitting to wayyyy more than anyone's found yet

#which is ironic too bc if he genuinely did want to prove he understood what he did wrong and that hed changed thatd be the way to do it #yknow like a full list of every single source including ones no one has found on their own or /can/ find anymore would a) be taking full #responsibility and b) make people less likely to always be like 'youre still hiding something' #which in turn makes me super think hes still hiding a lot of somethings #also cant go without stating that the 'request a video topic' thing was only for $100/month patrons after 3 months on that tier #like fucker these people gave you THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS AT LEAST and youre trying to blame it on them?????? #no one forced you to make 'let patrons pick video topics' a reward dude like. hello???????? #shit dude even hbombs highest tier ($10 for anyone wondering bc he doesnt see his audience as a money machine lmao) #just says you can vote in polls about future topics #like that makes complete sense to me as a version of this‚ the most dedicated audience members get a say in the future of the #channel while the creator still gets overall control of the direction #also 'patrons who gave me fuckloads of money asked me to make videos on topics i didnt like so i plagiarized those' is i think uhhh #worse than just 'i plagiarize everything without remorse' frankly? #like at least with the second youre just a general shitbag but the first where youre a shitbag specifically to the people #majorly financially supporting you rather than just like. be an adult and say 'hm i dont feel like that topic really works for the channel‚ #do you have any other ideas?' #or dare i say even perhaps yknow. doing what other youtubers do in similar situations and find ways to tie that subject #to what they usually talk about is just. wild #course that last one would take actual creativity and aint that just the crux of the issue #james somerton #or i say cannot go without stating i should say cannot go without restating kwnrkabdkwbrn

[ofpd]

I’d be interested in a non exr fic rec list

ok yes sorry this took a while to answer, i wanted to get through some fics on my tbr before posting it :)

The Pursuit of Light | enjolras & feuilly | 3.3k

"Let's start with the first conjugation," Enjolras says, taking up the pen beside him and scribbling down a list of words Feuilly is entirely unfamiliar with. "I hope my handwriting isn't too arcane."

True Fraternity | enjolras & feuilly | 2k

When Feuilly goes on a trip with his bourgeois friends to practice shooting, he feels increasingly out of place.

Farouche | combeferre/enjolras | 0.8k

Enjolras and Combeferre's friendly debate about love, family structures, and women goes a wee tiny bit off the rails, and Enjolras reacts even more severely to being hit on when he's interested than when he's not.

Driven Like the Snow | éponine/marius, éponine/montparnasse | 2.9k

The night after the Gorbeau robbery, Eponine wanders the streets of Paris.

Unravel | éponine/marius | 18.2k

Éponine Thénardier can "unravel" time--jump backward a few minutes or hours and let events play out again, sometimes slightly different from before. It's a secret little thing that she uses occasionally, to get herself out of trouble or avoid minor accidents. She's never tried to do anything big with it because, on the whole, she's happy with her life--her family's inn is successful, they live in a nice neighborhood in Paris, and she's in love with a kind and beautiful boy named Marius. But when her lover is killed on the barricades of the June Rebellion, she has to try to fix it--even if it means using her power on a scale she's never dreamed of. Even if it means throwing away everything else she has.

Under a Moonlit Sky | bahorel/fantine | 25.1k

The year is 1817. After Félix Tholomyès' little suprise, a despairing Fantine thinks she might go to her hometown of M-sur-M to find work. Instead, she decides to find Tholomyès and make him acknowledge Cosette. Enter a young man who would love to have an excuse to travel South (as far away from the law faculty as possible) and is uniquely suited to hunting down terrible men...

In Which Is To Be Learned The Name of Enjolras's Fake Fiancée | cosette & enjolras | 52.3k (unfinished)

It was true, Cosette allowed, that he was nothing at all like the beautiful young man from the Luxembourg, but she must not judge him unkindly for that. The world was full of young men, and it would be quite tedious if all the handsome ones were handsome in the same way.

#stuff tagged ep/marius includes unrequited ofc #anyway there have been more that ive enjoyed but here are some favorites #all canon era lol. that does tend to be what i like. also part of why theres unfortunately no epoferre here #that doesn't work in canon era LOL. but also i once read a fic mistagged as epoferre and have not wanted to look in the tag since #also my pursuit for good eposette fic has proved fruitless :/ #so far at least #asks #anon #les mis #i could give commentary on these but i always feel a bit weird doing that. like this is tumblr the authors could see #oh i guess i couldve included the most viscerally upsetting fic ive ever read in this but 1) its kinda exr and 2) i dont wanna think abt it #if anyones curious though u can dm me

[thegreatyin]

Hey what are your feelings on

1. lae'zel

2. Emperor

lae'zel is actually one of the best companions in the game and everyone who hates her or says she's just mean fundamentally doesn't understand her character. she's literally the nicest girl in the world given her usual environment and upbringing. she essentially has the exact same backstory as shadowheart in that she was raised in a controlling violent cult and has spent most of her life (including the start of the game) brainwashed by that cult into the person she is today. and yet despite it all she is trying her best to help people. she DID NOT have to save you on the nautiloid and she DID NOT have to promise to take you to what she had every reason to believe was a cure-all for the tadpoles and she goes so far as to defend you and the rest of the party to other gith despite her extremely xenophobic society pressuring her around every corner to do otherwise. over the course of the game she literally had her entire way of life and belief system uprooted from top to bottom and she ultimately decides to deal with it by becoming a hero and dedicating her life to saving others from the same situation she was in. her entire character, at its core, is so extremely dedicated to helping other people even at the cost of herself. she has the same trauma and should get the same treatment and sympathy as shadowheart and you guys just don't like her because she's not conventionally attractive and standoffish at the start of the game but when you actually follow her companion quest and/or romance her she is so sweet and trying her best and she is a TOP TIER companion and i am not going to pretend like she isn't.

the emperor is one of my favorite characters in all of bg3. i know i just went off about lae'zel but god the emperor is so good. he is a LIAR. he is a Bastard Capital B In Bold. he is the deceiver trope played straight from the very beginning and you can't trust a word he says and half of act 3 is practically dedicated to proving just how full of shit he is. he is an awful person who presents himself as a savior and a hero but at the first sign of resistance or hesitation he snaps and doubles down his manipulation in an attempt to control and corral the player into doing what he wants. his first reaction to the player turning down/questioning his sex scene in any way is to gaslight and accuse them so he can shift the blame and keep up his veil of heroism. he encourages them to let go of their humanity and turn themself into a cannibalistic monster while constantly swearing it's for the greater good. he literally runs off to join the netherbrain if you free orpheus. ansur was right all along. balduran died the minute that tadpole took over and transformed him into a mindflayer and the emperor is a shell of his former self masquerading around with the same gravitas and veil of kindness he used to have, but it's gone, if it ever existed to begin with. the emperor is a fascinating example of a manipulative piece of shit done right because even the fanbase can't agree wholeheartedly on if he's good or not but if you couldn't tell my money is wholly in the "he fucking sucks guys" camp. as a character i adore him though.

#sorry for going off. this ask awoke something in me #i love bg3's character writing so much i will literally be thinking about it forever. #ask #baldur's gate 3 #baldur's gate 3 spoilers #bg3 spoilers #i would've romanced lae'zel in reggie's playthrough if karlach didnt exist tbh. both bc they love mean women that peg them #and also bc i just love her. #also dont bring up omeluum and the 'do mindflayers even have souls' debate because if anything it proves even more #that emperor Legitimately Just Sucks. omeluum is a cool ass dude. he's my bestie. he's my bro. #omeluum is the embodiment of everything emperor presents himself as and everything he lies about being #if they (mindflayers) dont have souls then omeluum is still making the conscious decision to be sociable and eat as ethically as possible #while the emperor is making the conscious decision to Not Do That despite omeluum proving it can be done. #and if they DO have souls nothing changes. he is still an asshole. he is still awful. he can have a soul and that soul can be rotten. #sorry again i don't know where this emperor rant came from tbh #it may-or-may-not be incoherent. hopefully yall get the point im trying to make here
