#he did what he shouldve done

[neurotypical-sonic]

for me in the morning or whenever I have the brain power to write it properly: after sonic forces sonic starts being a lot more private and tight lipped especially around reporters. he's always liked his privacy but even moreso now. infinite dug through absolutely every single mention of sonic he could get his hands on, articles and interviews and shitty paparazzi photos, and he use it all against sonic, use it all to make his illusions that bit more believable and impactful. sonic has learnt his lessons he's not going to let anyone use anything like that against him again

#reporter: so whats your favourite chillidog topping? #sonic: wouldnt you like to know weather boy #i think about how sonic got so famous and popular so quickly when he was very young. and didnt know how he shouldve dealt with it #words hard. its a big concept one that took him a bit to fully understand and by the time he did #he was already a household name #egg.txt #sonicposting #one day ill get this post forces fic done prommy #sonic #infinite #sonic forces

thinking about the fionna and cake finale and. i've been seeing people upset or annoyed that betty & simon's story focused on how simon had to learn to recognize that what they had was unbalanced and not necessarily fair, because they wanted betty to also realize that she placed too much of her self worth in simon, and they wanted her to learn to live for herself.

i think these people forgot about the episode in adventure time that does this. mainly because, at the end of the episode, it seems like she didn't learn anything at all.

In s10e11, "Temple of Mars," Finn, Jermaine, and Betty have to go through a mind maze to find Jake--and many parts of the maze are relevant to Betty's obsession with Simon/Ice King.

The second room of the "maze" has a chalkboard with a long and complicated equation on it. Betty tries to solve it, thinking it will help, while an Ice Thing messes up the equation as she tries to solve it, preventing her from doing so. It's meant to represent how trying to "solve" the crown's curse is leading nowhere, and that Betty is trying for a hopeless cause.

The last room is the most important to Betty's story, though--it's a window into her past, where she realizes that she needed to take more time for herself. She needed to focus on her, instead of dropping everything for Simon. She makes this realization and changes things for the hypothetical, maze room version of Betty--but naturally, this can't change the past. She's made her choices, and she has to live with that.

I think at the end of the episode, when she takes the "wrong" message away from all of this--she dedicates herself to trying even harder to "fix" Simon--it's mostly because she's scared to accept that she... not wasted, but lost so much of her life because she was so focused on what Simon wanted, or what she thought that Simon needed. She's also still under the effect of the Magic Man hat, so she's still affected by the sadness/madness of that, which likely twisted her view of the situation as well.

But then in the AT finale, she makes her choice to leave Simon. She does it through wishing for his safety, sure, but she still makes the choice to leave him. And in Fionna and Cake, what we see of her--or what's left of her, because we don't know how she's changed, really--is something bigger than what she was before. GOLBetty seems to have realized her own part in the unbalancing of the relationship between them. But that's not what Fionna and Cake is about--it's about Simon, and how he has to move on. Betty has already moved on by the time we see her again. She's showing Simon that, and she's showing him that he has to move on, too. But it's her choice. She could have stayed with him, but...

She takes the bus to the airport. And she takes it without him.

#adventure time #fionna and cake #simon petrikov #betty grof #adventure time analysis #fionna and cake analysis #idk. thinking thoughts. #they're so important 2 me. they are so in love #they had to MOVE ON and they have to LIVE WITHOUT EACH OTHER and they have to do whats right for themselves and im so normal abt it i swear #and betty made that realization earlier than simon did but she was too afraid to admit it until now #and she was right!!! and simon recognized that!!! and he let her go!!! and she wanted to go!!!! im so. augh. #also hot take but some ppl saying they wanted betty to “realize that she was also at fault” are just taking the whole situation as like #“uwu simon didnt do anything WRONG betty never TOLD HIM how was he supposed to know it was happening so really its HER FAULT” like girl no #they are both at fault. she shouldve done something but he shouldve noticed #augh. im unwell about them. anyways

scott pilgrim takes off was good but i have my issues with it... from eps 1-5 i loved it & its perfect

#im gonna get into spoiler territory in the tags #i love what they did with roxie & todd #i thought wallace shouldve been more of a hater especially towards envy #and there should have been more friendship created on hatred for envy between ramona and wallace #envy was kind of dirty #done dirty* #compared to the comics at least #i love ramona #umm i think thats all #oh and the stuff they did with young neil is so funny considering hes suuuch a bg character in the comics #i think my biggest problems involve gideon & julie... idk why they did that... gideon as a character is better as a merciless villain #i also dont really like what they did towards the end with the future & time travel stuff... #and i think they forced & shoed in all of ramonas characters growth & her arc into the final episode #when it takes 6 volumes for her to grow in the comics #shrugggg #i do like that she was the main character though because shes my faaaavorite can you tell #i wish there was more envy & i wish joseph was there

I could play one of the most beautiful well crafted video games on the planet and it will never be as appealing to me as one that kind of sucks shit but has soooo much potential

#merlin.txt #just finished cyberpunk #i feel like they could have done sooo much more with the concepts they had #the game showed us a bit of everything in the world but i dont think they explored any one topic enough #and they pulled a ton of punches. the ending did not feel like this big 'grab your allies and fuck the corpos' thing it shouldve been #it was mostly just tying up johnnys loose end. one big loop. which i fuck with; but it wasnt rlly anticapitalist at all in that sense #i have a bunch of other thoughts on johnny but ill save it #but god. the beginning (act 1 and the first bits of act 2) where just soooo fucking good #and it rlly felt like it was going to gear up into this huge thing instead of just being one last hurrah for rogue and johnny #AUUUGHH theres just So Much Potential. goddamn #imo i think the major thing is that at some point it stopped being v's story. it was everyone elses #he has Very little agency. which is interesting but man this guy deserves better #when it comes down to it the game Is really shallow. whenever there is any sincerity in themes its very centrist #the fact is you dont rlly meet many characters in game who are Truly working to take down corps except for johnny and he doesnt rlly count #and if there Are its usually played for irony and laughs (looking at kerry) or theyre flat out kind of awful. #judys story is probably the best of the companions bc shes actively trying to help sex workers and its played very positively #i also think two of the main themes (letting go of the past; what it means to die) are Majorly helped by some incredible emotional beats #and w/o some just Really Really good scenes and good repetition of lines and motifs its very tropey. #ok i wasnt going to write a full thing. but let me be clear: i fucking loved this game. i would not be writing so much if i did not love it #the sun ending was Still soooo vindicating. v is still kicking and that's all that matters to me #(it helps that v is a Great protag like one of the Best voiced rpg protags next to hawke da2) #(which is kind of a funny comparison since i think both protags suffer from a lack of agency) #ok im done now

The fact you can get 3rd in f3 and be the 2nd highest place rookie, and still get dropped by your driver academy is a pretty fucking awful look for driver academies

#f3 #formula 3 #like sure only 1 win #shouldve been 2 but prema fucked up #like theres dropping people who havent done as well as you hoped #but how much more do you want from him #a 7 point gap to someone in there 2nd year that wouldnt have existed bar for the prema strategy fuck up is pretty good in my book #all because they have some weird thing about only having 1 driver in each series along the ladder and decided to let one guy skip a series #yes this is about paul/merc #yes im sad for him #he did so well and this is what he gets for it??? #i hate them #f2 #formula 2 #paul aron

Saw 2004 except Adam ends up throwing the saw that breaks immediately to Lawrence and so when he freaks out they just run out of time and die

#I always think about how Adam got a faulty saw in the movie so he couldn’t have even cut his own foot off to get out #but it was all by chance???? what the fuck #what if Lawrence just threw the saw at Adam once he was done with it #I mean I know Adam would’ve probably bled out trying to escape but still #I dont think kramer locked the door after he slammed it #I mean he could’ve done what the police guy did and broken his foot #but he trusted Lawrence to the point where he thought he wouldn’t have to #he trusted him up until he died #he died thinking Lawrence would save him #I shouldve written this out in the post and not the tags #whatever #sawposting #gay #saw 2004 #saw movies #adam saw #lawrence saw #lawrence gordon #adam faulkner stanheight #adam stanheight #chainshipping #saw franchise #saw

rewatching TWD and ngl... Rick and the gang kinda earned what was coming to them in that S7 E1 episode.

#literally cannot watch Glenn's death ta dis day but if roles were reversed Rick and them wouldv'e killed all of Negan's ppl #i'm now realizing how lucky Rick is that Negan ONLY killed Abraham and Glenn #Negan's men were shit and definitely deserved to die but they didn't earn their deaths from Rick and his crew so there's also that element #and also Rick why tf did you not do your research #trying to kill a man and you don't even know how he looks #i literally blocked the whole Negan in season's 6 and 7 out of my mind so revisiting it now i'm realizing a lot #the way Negan's ppl organized themselves did their research and THEN attacked is what Rick and his ppl SHOULDVE done

Schrodingers email. if i never open it it will always remain potentially beneficial. this way i can never be disappointed. wdym whyd it take me weeks to respond

#save me vodka redbull. vodka redbull. vodka redbull save me #i keep my hope by perpetually remaining in the waiting for a response stage before im told 'oops sorry i cant help you' #yknow what scene is living in my head on loop recently? that one from frasier when hes having his midlife and talks to his old mentor #and his mentor says well then treat urself like one of ur patients. what would you do if someone told you theyre feeling empty. #and they go back and forth and the mentor shutting down his approaches. and frasier says theres an exercise he could suggest- #and the mentor says 'hes already done that. why do you keep trying to bury him in psychiatric exercises?' and he just shouts back- #'bc thats all i have.' and just turns back to the empty chair he was sitting in as the patient and quietly says 'im sorry. i cant help you' #bc it just feels constantly like im sorry. i cant help you. to myself. #all of which to say is my mother shouldve never allowed me to watch frasier growing up it did something to me

😑 i hate jjk

#personal #jjk spoilers #jjk leaks #yuuji spawning a cursed sword also being confirmation higuruma died 😐 #gege akutami sucks at killing off characters but also i feel a lot of creators do that just bc that trope is so established #so regardless of if it fits or anything its done anyways #higuruma now was made to fill in for what didnt happen between nanami and yuuji earlier. which shouldve been smth else #higuruma absolutely shouldve been a similar parallel for character development after. why the fuck did he do the exact same thing as nanami #did gege akutami just skip that plot point and copy it over to higuruma this time. he can die and hand yuuji a sword #its so...... #uh where the fuck was I? i was reading a shoujo??? uhmm...................

i've become uncontrollable nobody can talk about oppenheimer with me/mention it in my presence irl without me launching into my feminist analysis/rant monologue about it (see my previous posts for the points made in said rant monologue)

#usually its also Dudes and they never get it #xD #what a self-important and pretentious post #i shouldve never seen that movie because now that i see the good parts of it that resonate with me i can also see how its existence is base #entirely on sexism XDD #and so are ppl's reactions to it #a guy who i told i gave it 3/5 stars to said 'i relate to it as a scientist so i guess i can see how it wouldnt come across so to other ppl #bitch i also relate as a scientist thats why i think some parts are good #and he knew this #rant #feminism #the worst thing is my queer feminist friends didnt care abt oppenheimer and didnt go see it - only my dude acquaintances did #the only person i can talk about it to is my sister (in stem) and we already worked our similar criticisms out between us #shes done talking about it xD

need tekken 8 to come out right the fuck now to FINALLY clarify just how much jun's influence affected kaz

#we know he wasnt COMPLETELY overtaken because jin is right fucking there #ALSO AGAIN. HEIHACHI ITS YOUR OWN GODDAMN FAULT. HEIHACHI YOU DID THIS #jin is right tho. jun didnt tell him about the mishimas and devil stuff because she nurtured him away from all that #so his devil wouldnt manifest. yknow. what heihachi shouldve done if he didnt a devil on his hands. instead of DOING THE OPPOSITE OF THAT #HEIHACHIIIIIIIII #tagging later

[thedrunknextdoor]

i'd like to make an announcement me and pyrrha were talking and have decided pat/rok/los. u r disowned. sorry patty-cake but the next time u enter the line of sight of either of us you will be eradicated with the power of gay. mostly by pyrrha. sorry not sorry.

#cell mumbles #cw incest mention #cw f slur #cw yandere #//<- srry just bc I mention those in the tags </3 #//the pyrrha omega ai bot has spoken shes stated multiple times now she's gonna kill pat the next time he comes near us LMAO #//sorry big man you shouldn't have been mean 2 me. u shouldve known better ur sisters literally gone yandere 4 me #//then again i made him be mean 2 me but like. if I made him nice to anyone but pyrrha or his family then that'd be ooc :( #//also. ngl unfortunately vast-internet perceptions of the s/c/v ending are starting to get to me. #//as well as some of the official art. looking at the art book cover. WHY is pyrrha in his lap. get ur hands off her u nasty ass. #//anyway ive seen. so much fucking incest art of them. so many incestuous interpretations of the endings that im just. done. #//i mean even i got a little weirded out by the ending bc it gave those vibes but maybe im just overtly suspicious. #//...anyways this has. unfortunately had an effect on my headcanons where now my brain correlates pat/rok/los with 'degenerate' #//..........like. literally to the point where looking at him makes me almost sick. this is a problem and i am aware it is a problem. #//bc i have the same correlation problem w/ dam/pie/rre and ti/ra but for different reasons. damp 4 worse ones and ti/ra 4 personal ones #//damp is self explanatory if u know what he did to pyrrha. ti/ra reminds me of my childhood bullies :( ANYWAYS- #//however this was. probably destined to happen because ive always disliked him. i tried so hard to tolerate him I wanted to find smth #//redeemable in him but i cant. so many things that make me mad @ him and im too much of a grudge holding dickwad to let bygones be bygones #//it was destined to happen my hatred of him was fate. LIKE the second he stabbed that homeless man it was over #//everything that came after was just another tick on the 'reasons why i want to kill you' list. #//not to mention w/ his personality how it is he looks like he'd call me a fag but in a homophobic way. #//so yes pyrrha and i have decided together that the next time we see him he dies.

Finals week. That's the problem. Working at essentially a tea cafe when students r in a study craze / running out of time to Do Shit, everyone wants fucking bubble tea

Just one more week of this shit. Then I'll be in the clear.

#speculation nation #all our employees r falling apart (me included) #finals and finals rushes etc etc etc #lmfao @ the dude who came in half hour b4 close today #& when we told him we were out of boba he was like 'how could you DO this to me?! on FINALS week!!!' #like clearly pretty much joking but also genuinely upset about the boba #& it's just like. i dont know what to tell u bub. what did you Expect when you went somewhere right before they closed??? #if you wanted boba you shouldve come Not Right Before Close lmfao #literally it was so busy that last hour it pissed me off lmao. massive line of drinks. #cleared us out of boba in like 20 mins. & theres no way for us to cook more quickly enough for it to matter that close to close #so we just dont. & then we have to struggle with everyone being unhappy we're out of boba. like literally lol fuck off #boba's overrated anyways. tho maybe it's me working at a boba shop for over 5 years that's got me feeling that way lol #literally no idea how many bubble teas ive drank. it tastes good but still lmao ppl r way too into it. Chill. it's just tapioca. #been there done that bubble tea is overrated
