pest control TWO!!!!! heres the first one

adn heres the obligatory bonus bc i can't help myself :')

#i already threatened that little basard twice in these i may as well make good on it #pizza tower #peppino spaghetti #fake peppino #the noise #fp ''oh god wait that is not a real rat and also tastes awful'' moments. he doesnt actually have any interest in eating that thang ok #even if seeing a small scampering little guy like that WILL activate his prey drive without fail #peppino loves it he thinks it's the funniest shit in the world for fp to go after noise. so he is always encouraging this. #but anyway yeah. fp is *really* not the one noise should be worried about. #arting #pizzaposting #i still have lots of tag room thjis time so im gonna do some tangential nonsense rambling. e #fp gotta be like crazy good at hunting i think. not just for strength and predator instincts but also bc like #he doesn't have much in the way of a scent or body heat or anything that would give him away as an alive thing #not to mention he's uh... not particularly organically-shaped a lot of the time #so esp. to smaller prey that don't like... memorize a landscape; if he holds very still he's like completely undetectable #total ambush king. though i'm sure hes also very good at #persistence and pursuit hunting since he has peppino's speed and no way of getting muscle fatigue. ultimate beast #fortunately he doesnt care that much and doesnt really need to eat so hes not devastating the local ecosystem or anything #except for the rats.

I doubt Wu would train him against Misako’s wishes (see every episode of Season 1 before 10), but Lloyd would definitely come across them eventually

Plus given her mild reaction to Lloyd’s growth and the fact that he recognizes each her, she only left recently, when he was older

Plus plus, he would be safe at Darkly’s, Garmadon is literally Kruncha and Nuckal’s boss, they can’t hurt him

Were there better choices she could’ve made? Yes, but that doesn’t mean the choice she made was wrong.

Update: Turns out I’m a dipshit who forgot she leaves him when he’s young, ok :y

A lot of my points still stand though, albeit at a slightly different angle in some cases

#guess I'm a hardcore Misako defender now #sweet #no matter when on the timeline she left Wu had the weapons #''aw shit he found the four elemental ninja protectors already I gotta speed this thing up'' #even if she left after Wu hid them Wu still knew the locations of all four. it was only a matter of time til he had to find them again #''Uncle why do the Golden Weapons glow sometimes when I get near them'' #''They WHAT'' #she's tryin her best bless her soul #plus Lloyd was REAL angsty in those first two seasons and got upset real easily #she probably left for like a year tops #remember how upset he got at Garmadon for stealing files? #''NOBODY WANTS YOU HERE IT WOULD BE BETTER IF YOU JUST LEFT >:'(!!! #temper tantrum baby #ninjago #lego ninjago #ninjago misako #ninjago lloyd #ninjago lloyd garmadon #ninjago golden weapons #ninjago wu #ninjago dragons rising

"For me, [feminism is] the ability to have women who are bad characters … the one thing that really frustrates me is this idea that women are innately good, innately nurturing. In literature, they can be dismissably bad – trampy, vampy, bitchy types – but there's still a big pushback against the idea that women can be just pragmatically evil, bad and selfish ... I don't write psycho bitches. The psycho bitch is just crazy – she has no motive, and so she's a dismissible person because of her psycho-bitchiness [...]

Isn't it time to acknowledge the ugly side [of femininity]? I've grown quite weary of the spunky heroines, brave rape victims, soul-searching fashionistas that stock so many books. I particularly mourn the lack of female villains."

-Gillian Flynn in a 2013 interview, discussing why both her flawed messy protagonists and vicious antagonists are typically women, and why that has made some critics very very angry.

#gillian flynn #as a general rule i dont 'stan' real people and no ones above criticism but this particular sentiment is SO ON THE FUCKING NOSE #i just remembered this interview and went back to find it again because it really encapsulates so much of what i'm thinking/feeling lately #YEAH!! I DON'T WRITE PSYCHO BITCHES I WRITE WOMEN WHO ARE THREE-DIMENSIONAL AND STILL AWFUL!! #LET FICTIONAL WOMEN HAVE ROOM TO BE UGLY AND HORRIFYING!!!! #words #writing

Turns out I bring out the neurodivergence people are masking in FULL FORCE when they start talking to me.

Yes, I do consider this a public service.

#Oh you're not having to pretend to be someone else all the time? #GOOD BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT THE PROBLEM #“Oh but I just decided I don't want to be alone so I just mask...” #NO #because then you're STILL alone because they don't actually know YOU #I'm not saying you have to be alone just try to find your clan of weird and be happy #Life is too short to RP your entire life as a character you don't even like #Just be weird with me OK #I am too old to mask 24/7 #And I'm so tired of losing “friends” because I inevitably unmask just a smidge and they immediately disown me #So experience the full force of my weird and be in awe or gtfo #Real friends or bust #neurodivergent #neurodiversity #neurodiverse stuff

I don't know if I can put into words how happy Warrior Nun makes me. I already loved the first season, but with this second season... The characters, the story, the relationships... I have not loved a show like this in a long time. My emotional satisfaction cup has indeed runneth over.

#warrior nun #this show man #i haven't felt like this since vagrant queen #i'm just... still in stunned awe about this show #and it's real #this show is real #wow

Any more headcanons for that oneshot you made where Bill is Ford's familiar? How does Ford react to Bill getting close to his nephew? How does Bill use this to his advantage? If Dipper can't get a slice of Bill's power, how does his magic shape up in the end?

Sure, why not!

This got longer than I wanted, so it's under a read more. Also, here's the link to the snippet in question.

I think that Dipper and Bill end up hanging out a lot, honestly. Dipper's a lonely guy, and Bill's bored out of his angles, so he's going to be on at least sorta decent behavior, since Dipper's providing more entertainment than he's had in decades. (Ford is unaware of this)

Still very much Bill, though; he absolutely tries multiple tricks in the book to try and get Dipper to break him out, or subtly trick him into getting Ford into a fatal accident. Dipper's been warned, though - I don't think any of them work!

Eventually Dipper gives in and offers a deal: He'll banish Bill back to his realm (He's been trapped in a basement for thirty years, no surprise he wants Ford dead, that sort of thing just straight-up sucks-) as long as Bill doesn't harm him or his family. Bill, once again in a terrible position to bargain, is happy to get the hell out of reality rather than be stuck in a circle for another decade or so.

This.... probably ends up in a pretty big fight between Ford and Dipper. Once he notices Bill is missing. If the Stans weren't already at odds, that'd be the kicker to set it off.

Little does Dipper know, but now that Bill's 'free' - he's gotten his stuff in order, hummed a little tune to himself - and decided it's the perfect opportunity to start courting that cute little mortal in earnest.

#answers #Ford's still bonded to Bill and that'll be true until he dies #But since it likely wasn't an accident in his case he doesn't have Mindscape access #His prisoner has escaped and he's absolutely furious. Does Dipper have *any idea* how much havoc Cipher could cause #Dipper meanwhile has gotten Emotionally Attached at some point and goes off about maybe keeping PRISONERS for thirty years is fucked up #Dipper has a restless night of upset sleep #And wouldn't you know it Bill pops in with some creepy gift (flowers?? A screaming head? In a bouquet of flowers) #What can he say? The kid's real cute. He's been pretty decent company. He betrayed his uncle for Bill!! VERY Sexy of him #And MAN that MIND #He's straightening his tie and spritzing cologne on as he comes up with Date Ideas #Cue: Dipper Not Getting that Bill's 100% after him romantically now #Bill might be stuck with a familiar bond to Ford but since he's not powering THAT guy #Nothing stops him from going 'aw you're cute. Have a little magic why don'tcha' to Dipper #Like a rich man slapping a huge wad of cash in their partner's hand and pinching their butt while they tell 'em to go shopping #Demons *can* give power to mortals - they just don't usually do it without taking something in return during a deal #I enjoy the mental image of Bill taking a page from Hua Cheng's book and going 'oh you need some energy?? Sure!!' #'We gotta lock lips to make the transfer though so pucker up' #Dipper has no reason to question this statement even if he is skeptical #Anyway it probably all works out well in the end! With presumably Bill causing chaos more directly this time #Dipper all not realizing he has a crush until Bill shapeshifts human one time and he goes 'oh no I'm in danger' #I should stop before I get tempted to write this #I have other stuff to do damn it

Someone commented that Wally was supposed to be 3 ft as a puppet. So I decided that while he’s adult sized in the actual world of Welcome Home, he is stuck as a 3ft tall puppet if he ended up in the real world, thus these doodles.

Also, most people show Wally escaping into the real world and make it creepy. I was going to do the same, but then I was all ‘Nah, he just gets flung out of the computer like a doll getting tossed through the air.’

Also Wally doesn’t like being mishandled. That bully is lucky he that all he lost was a part of his sleeve and a few drops of blood.

(Lily and Nate are my ocs.)

#welcome home #welcome home oc #wally darling #wally's pants are such a pain so the fact that I showed his legs in all four drawings was a pain #since i want this to still be wholesome i'm trying to avoid having wally do anything too graphic #but he would do worse than a bite if something awful was happening #my version of wally escaping to the real world involves robbing a bit of his dignity LOL #welcome sisters au

the main reason I will always be obsessed with David Tennant is that fundamentally, we share the same mental illness

#I’m constantly in awe of him #and obv he's immensely talented and attractive and a great person #but that man is clearly insane #i mean he sits and writes 10k essays on the homoerotic subtext of shakespeare #he can't sit still for like 2 seconds #or sit normally on a chair #he thinks using real skulls for hamlet is cool (it is) #he says things like “i'd rather hide under a table than go out” and “i wear hoodies so people don't talk to me (they assume I'm a murderer) #he faked an assistant to get out of attending events #is obsessive about his geeky shows #is somewhat an adrenaline junkie. said about doing theatre; #“it was horrible and it was actually killing me. but once it was over i ofc thought to myself 'oh i think i might have to do that again” #in interviews he keeps going off in tangents and looses the complete point of the question #i mean i just watched one where he was asked about his first day on set on doctor who #and he somehow ended up on passionately speaking how we are all fucked if donald trump is elected (this was before he was president) #and nearly started an anti-trump campaign (king) #has the chronic inability to make sartorial choices that would result in anything but the gayest outfits #has imposter syndrome #ofc i can only aspire to be fractionally as cool as him #but all this actually deeply relatable #this is probably why tumblr likes him so much #david tenannt

things that really suck: when a fucked up fictional dynamic is genuinely upsetting to you in a way that'd normally be much easier to engage with and process if you dead doved it, except the ship in question has been ruined for you by Bad Associations so that is a no-go and you're left to deal with the upsetting shit raw. ugh

#whosebaby talks #personal stuff #people try to claim Shipping Bad Things(tm) is self-harm and i'm like man in my case that is the literal exact opposite of the truth #dead doving triggering fictional stuff i'm trying to process is a near instant release valve to make it less of an emotional minefield #and i feel the lack of that safety valve *keenly* when i need to engage with something in fiction to process it #and would be greatly helped in the long run by doing so; but i'm either not *interested* in shipping it #or it's been ruined for me in a way that i really am not ready to reclaim yet if ever; and would do me more harm than good if i tried #i have to be so *so* much more careful and it is *so* much easier for it to tip over into self-harm without rigorous work and safety nets #especially if the framing of the fucked up dynamic is awful in canon #it is still definitely possible for something i'm dead doving to be Too Much and in need of a time out #or to be a thing i am just squicked/triggered by in such a way that dead doving it would not help #but my threshold for the former is W A Y higher; and it is so much easier for me to identify the latter in comparison #anyway yeah i have feelings about the whole thing and it is a real damn shame when this happens. sighs

Have u played canto 5? Its v good

I have seen some screenshots! Some of the character designs look so cool!!! and I'm excited to see what the story is about cause Ishmael is so interesting to me! I want to know what her deal is!!! I'm not playing the game unfortunately since I what happened with how the company treated some workers really sucked. I work in the games industry too, so the idea that someone would fire / bribe a resignation of a coworker or me over something someone on the internet said is so insane to me. Especially how stupid the pinching hand gesture call is, like its crazy. I can't get over it personally haha. It could also just be the worlds worst handling of public messaging too? But having worked too many places weird shit like this happens - I don't trust like that not without some kind of external proof. I am on the fence on if I will play again or not! It really depends on how the investigation will go if they end up doing one! I love the world and the characters and I still think it is the best mobile game I've ever played!! But it's much harder for me to enjoy the themes now knowing what the company chose to do or not do in real life. So I am holding off watching the chapter for now - if I do end up feeling alright playing the game again I think it will be fun to play through an experience the story as I play it! And if I do I'll probably scream and get all excited over it then! But if I decide not to play again I'll probably just watch it at some point!

#kickguyreply #sorry if I'm being a downer haha but that's how it is for me #i hear its very gay in chapter 5 and im so so excited - i saw ahab's design and i started doodling again haha #I still draw things every once in a while I just don't post them :') #but i also do this with various games and studios - like with riotgames lmao #hard to enjoy arcane given the main draw seems to be cool women when they're facing multiple lawsuits for being Awful to women in real life #also the whole job contract issue signing away your rights to a lawyer... and trying to sue the makers of the original warcraft mod... #i was pretty into LoL cause the characters and world were cool and it was fun - but i can just focus on other things now haha #can never answer a single question without going into a tag ramble sorry sorry hadkfjghadfkg

I think the thing about ntn is, it's like making a friend who you broadly agree with on the most important things but who you HARD disagree with on some of the details

#ntn spoilers #i'm at the point where i can have actual opinions now i think. #paul. paul. #i loved the campal tragic moment i loved everything with pyrrha and nona's reluctance to remember the ways she'd been hurt the #compartmentalizing of identity the acknowledgement that sometimes we just are going to become someone vastly different #the question of whether love can overcome that or why love matters if everything's just going to change and end and restart again #and the conclusion that it did matter because it mattered in the moment #love as this huge imperfect force of acceptance for others vs love as a determination to cling to them the way you think they should be #all of that was so good #even the stuff with gideon kind of. felt like it belonged in a different book but i agree with the broad character strokes of like #the horror of what's been done to gideon the way she is trying to become a different person making her own terrible decisions etc #but still trapped in this awful framework for her life & death where she only matters as a symbol for others #and her reckoning with that is messy and awful bc of course it is! #but it did feel like it needed more space than the brief chapters we got & hopefully it will come to the forefront in the next book #like all of the elements didn't necessarily mesh well and i think the humor she was trying to go for with the silly name didn't really work #and the stuff with judith was like. the most boring way to handle that imo. did she have to be unconscious the whole book #she's got so much potential as a character #and! my top pet peeve when harrow lobotomy girl nonagesimus is like i'm going to find the real god you suck #iconic yes but it reveals #she's had the agency to walk away from john the whole book and has sat there listening and now is going to find alecto when? #like?? #the point of the lobotomy was that she is rejecting the framework for her previous life bc she's decided she cares more about the human cost #like??????? #if she was just sort of drifting in the river having alecto's dreams that's one thing but i refuse to believe #she wouldn't be trying to figure out where gideon was the whole time #maybe if she hadn't done the lobotomy i would buy it but she did do the lobotomy!!!!! she literally did do the lobotomy #you have to do a lot of work to get harrow from only caring about gideon's life and i guess religion kind of to just hitting pause on #thinking about gideon for an entire book! #this is not even my shipper brain it makes sense gideon has other priorities is in mourning for her previous self the things she's lost etc #but harrow literally did the lobotomy if u needed to get her to the 9th for plot reasons there were better ways to explain it!!

watching the last of my buddy cole archive videos from the most recent batch paul sent over and this one is a rehearsal video for champagne soul. initially i was like "oh this is going to be the exact same show i saw yesterday" since it's all the same material, and yeah that's true, but also it's just scott performing to an audience of exclusively paul bellini holding a video camera and them bantering back and forth occasionally. like i just get to see this behind the scenes video of paul and scott hanging out and working on a performance in 1993 and i find that very sweet

#there's one point where paul's running the music that transitions from scene to scene #and scott just goes ''the camera's on the wrong person here. paul's the real show'' and i'm like aw i wish i could see what paul's doing #the fact that they've been best friends for over 40 years is so cool to me #like even if they get on each other's nerves sometimes they still have such a strong friendship that's lasted nearly double my lifetime
