#i feel called out its accurate

[meteortrails]

zoro and nami are like if soulmates could also be two feral cats who’s favorite person locked them all in a bathroom together until they stopped trying to kill each other, yknow? they’re two people who’s MO is tough love and emotional repression trauma bonding over the experience of being loved by someone who only knows how to love people at max volume. they’re friends outside of luffy but their shared love and devotion for him is a gravitational pull that shapes their relationship. the understanding they share is one of knowing Exactly how mean and nasty and terrible the other person is capable of being, and thus also being able to look at them and say ‘you’re a heinous bitch but nonetheless this isn’t you. this isn’t something you’re capable of.’ and that specifically is so key to me bc it’s VERY different from the understanding they share w/luffy, but still presents in a similar way of making it impossible to purposefully push each other away. as impossible as their world gets, as insanely powerful as they each become, they’ll always be those two lost kids from the east blue wondering how the fuck they agreed to this to each other.

#like there’s something about it where. Zoro can call nami a greedy witch and nami can call zoro a monster and it’s ok #bc its understood that they know who each other are inside and out. the unspoken ‘you wish this was all I saw you sentimental loser’. #one piece #idk I hope this feels coherent and accurate they’re just. everything to me a little bit #roronoa zoro #nami #op meta

The prevailing belief of many ASTV viewers seems to be that Miguel O'Hara is an actual, literal vampire. Do you think this funny.

Nope! <3 it shows such a lack of willingness to do even Basic Research that would take maybe two seconds to look up that it makes me want to Kill. like. cmon. he has Fangs because he's half-spider...,,.,

They're hollow, and whenever he Bites People, it is specifically with the intent to POISON them with the VENOM from his FANGS-- he also Says That every time he does it, like he's an anime character, lol, and it means a lot to me. we don't know the exact makeup or potency of his venom, but we Do know that it's fast-acting, paralytic, and (apparently, thankfully) non-toxic, at least.

#talking tag #asks #spider-man 2099 #spiderman 2099 #atsv #across the spiderverse #spider-man: across the spider-verse #but like. honestly ive Never liked ppl calling him a vampire LOL ppl alREADY didnt know anything abt 2099 as it was Before ATSV came out y/ #and then ATSV comes out nd its portrayal of My Blorbo for whom my foolish fool self would & Will go 2 bat for Debunking Disinformation abt- #--is Canon Accurate in its characterization of him even if in general i think it's pretty Thematically Weird 2 have chosen Mig Specifically #--for the role that they put him in just specifically because. like. the themes of SM2099 kind of actively go against All Of That Stuff? #but. whatever. dbsdkvbdvjbsk it's not a Dealbreaker 4 me i Understand quite intimately that literally nobody cares abt analyzing 2099 LOL. #and i am just a nitpicky esoteric autistic Bitch with Very Strong Opinions or w/e #anyways they made lots of Funney Jokes. tho i dont dig how often mig was Called Unfunny because he Is Funny hes just autistic nd quiet #mig Is Funny he just doesnt make quips as a nervous reaction or to distract villains when he is wearing the costume. #like the Whole Point of his spider-man is that hes Supposed to b Weird And Different from other Spiders thats literally what he was made 4 #zigging where lee & ditko zagged. He Was Designed That Way On Purpose That Is Why He Is So Interesting He Is ACTUALLY DIFFERENT #Christ almighty one more person acts like he wasnt nothin before this film as if he aint existed for 30 years with an established history. #feel like i m just gonna start freakign Killing

Why has Barnaby made TWO hospital visits in one year??? What was the first one about??? [<-Talking about the Human AU]

no yeah the first one was Howdy's brief stint (a couple hours) for the whole smoke inhilation minor injuries from the fire thing.

the second one was for Wally's festive lil car crash where he comes very close to Fuckign Dying!!! and. well. technically there are many different visits for that one cause he's in the hospital for a hot sec, but yk. technically only two hospital-worthy events

#barnaby: oh man howdy being in the hospital was terrifying! #barnaby: i sure hope i never have to experience anything like this again! #and- whats that? WHY ITS WALLY DARLING WITH A STEEL CHAIR- #its a very distressing event for everyone!!! #a long night of a bunch of colorful Very Stressed friends in a waiting room followed by several weeks of equally stressed visits #its a Bad Accident #like a 'its a borderline miracle that wally survived' accident #the rest of the au is pretty feel-good and the angst is more mild & normal/expected #this is like. just the Big Dramatic Event that fucks everyone up ahaha #i needed to include at least one!!! #its very detailed in my mind... #from the call getting cut off to barnaby sobbing his heart out in the hospital parking garage to etc etc etc #rambles from the bog #wh modern human au #its fun! for me. and anyone who enjoys this flavor of Fictional Drama #ive been going through reddit threads & articles & sites all morning researching medical stuff #as i am wont to do when thinking about characters getting injured <3 #usually its for stuff like stab wounds and disembowelment and hypothermia and lung collapse and- you get the picture #car crashes Surprisingly are rarely in my wheelhouse of angst! for some reason! theyre very juicy! #anyway i like to get everything as accurate as possible in my head #and then take Creative Liberties bc this is fiction #but! they're purposeful (mild) inaccuracies! if im gonna do something wrong im gonna do it Correctly! #do the. do the something wrong correctly. do the wrong thing Right! on purpose! #so that if people go 'well uhm acktually' i can say with my entire chest I Know! I Did This On Purpose! Thank You!

So they didn't become void, they were "born" that way

In FaaF there are different species and kinds of higher beings (still a MASSIVE work in progress tbh, trying to figure out how these cunts work, but for now I'm thinking they're extremely rare species with far greater abilities and lifespans than a normal bug's that have a chance to ascend to true godhood (but even if they don't ascend that doesn't stop mortals from worshipping them as they're already very god-like from a normal bug's perspective)), "pale beings" being one of these kinds/mutations.

Well, there was also a different kind once, "void beings", but they all went extinct a very long time ago by the beginning of the story. Shade Lord was one, and last, of them and it lost its life in a fight with Radiance - the same fight that drove her to make her permanent residence in the dream realm out of her new-found fear of death (which backfired spectacularly ngl). Its body was buried in the Abyss, where it broke apart and decayed, or decayed as much as a non-living thing can, before it was unearthed many ages later by the pale wyrm.

Not much is known about them since they've been gone for so long, and the vessels are the only void beings remaining, but since they're not "pure" void beings it'd be foolish of anyone to assume that the ancient extinct species behaved the same way as these ones do. But they were generally greatly feared thanks to the void's freaky, dangerous properties, which partly lead to their extinction as some of the other higher beings purposefully attacked and killed them whenever they stumbled across one out of fear. Now the only thing remaining of them are the rare void sources, where their former bodies still refuse to fully die.

Shade Lord does get accidentally resurrected in the story bc of all the tomfoolery happening with its body before almost immediately getting killed again by Ghost who inherits its title and reign. Don't ask me how that works, haven't figured that out yet. Magic god shit or something idk LMAO

#thylacines can talk #faaf au #I read somewhere once that if we close mammoths they wouldn't be true mammoths but more like a mammoth elephant hybrid? Idk how accurate #that is but that's essentially what the vessels are. A hybrid species that behaves and looks a lot like the extinct one yet the differences #are significial enough that they're technically not the same thing. And since nobody knows how void beings were like its anyone's guess #which of their traits originated from Shade Lord. You know they could have probably asked it if it didn't want to violently take over #and kill all other gods in rage filled revenge. And then tried to kill its so called children when they didn't want to participate in that. #PK 🤝 SL 🤝 WL parent of the year award #The vessels can't have even ONE good parent sorry #Well SL is less of a parent and more of a...DNA donor? Its kidneys got stolen and turned into babies #Currently in FaaF Norel and PK we're the only ones who studied void so a lot of its properties and origins are a huge mystery. And PK #slowly stopped after the vessel plan began. After Flower/Pure Vessel was taken into the palace the extent of his studies revolved around #them and their health. He only created new moulds when the old ones got destroyed. Guilt played a big part in his reasons for that. #Norel would know a bit more simply because PK's source sample was limited while Norel travelled across wasteland looking for void and #experimented with different sources. And he was considerably more...unethical about them. So he probably knows what void does to a mortal's #body while PK doesn't know much about that bc he was careful to not give any of his citizens and staff void poisoning after he realised it #was dangerous. Also thinking about Norel once having a mole in the White Palace which is how he found out about Floeer and the origins of #vessels. And maybe said mole broke into PK's workshop and wrote down some things before leaving Hallownest 👀 Bc it does feel a little #weird for Norel to know more than PK just like that. And he's a little snake who WOULD steal other people's work. #Like I mentioned previously Norel makes his own constructs which is something I wanted dabble in. Maybe he stole that idea from PK? His #ones are far worse and fewer than PK's but they serve their purpose and he's just starting dabbling in that. By the time he shows his ugly #mug again to terrorise Flower's kids and grandkid he'd probably be MUCH better at that 👀 #I love my fucked up little moth #My one true talent is getting wildly off topic whenever sh asks me about my as #Aus*

I feel like a lot of criticism of the good doctor comes from people who've never actually watched it

"My parents now think autistic people can't live by themselves". Well... I'm sorry to hear that, but Shaun does just fine on his own? A big part of season one is him not wanting a stranger to help him with things when his mentor/father figure tries finding him an aid or something. He only gets a roommate, his best friend and now wife, after she crashed at his place.

"He's such a jerk" he's... literally very sweet? The only person I can think of who he was purposefully rude to was his abusive jerk of a father, which... was deserved lmao

He usually tries to connect with his patients, and there are some very sweet moments.

#im not saying theres no valid criticisms #of course there are #i just feel like... some people say things about stuff without actually knowing about it? #i know a lot of people have issues with the show and with shaun and thats fair but #hes like. the character ive related to most ever in media #i started watching the show because apparently its one of the more medically accurate medical dramas #came out of it seeing myself in a character like never before #and such a great character too #i love him very much #ive never seen someone have. ? emotional outbursts like that #like ive had #where you breathe so hard you cant actually breathe #hit myself in the head #and when lea joins him in moving his hands and jumping around together when excited..... #i would die if someone did that with me rather than just giving me a weird look or laughing or calling me a bird #anyway. a lot of the criticism can be disproven if you actually watch the show #much like misako LMAOOOO #the good doctor #im so sad its goinh to end after s7 ;-;

[girlwithfish]

i have so much random small bullshit tasks on my to do list and i try to break down the clean my room stuff bc a lot of it is also unpacking and sorting stuff from my move bc i still have shit in boxes i need to find a place for or unpack lol so then i break those tasks down into parts of my room or like "bedside table" "desk" but now i have like a 16 bullet point to do list. other stuff is like call old employer HR about my tax forms bc i think it got sent to my old apartment. call x y z doctors. need to call my eye doctor bc my contacts never got delivered. email xyz. just stupid bullshit some that would take 5min each to do but it feels like the most daunting thing ever

#bc i have weird medical anxiety combined w phone calls making me feel like a gun is being held to my head etc etc and #the cleaning stuff or sorting stuff more accurately is extremely overwhelming #i also need to clean my car out bc i have a bunch of stupid bullshit on the floor in my backseat from moving and its dirty and needs to be #vacuumed etc etc. i an going to do my laundry tmrw ill start there 👍🫶 #and try to tidy my room but it feels like i try to do it every other day and it just gets messy again w clothes and clutter.

sending good vibes to mixed race folk who have a very complicated relationship w their heritage or view of themselves, ily

#mentally i call myself a racially ambiguous american #i don't really connect with the word latino idk why.. like i was raised by an immigrant parent but #oddly feel no connection with the culture at all. not out of self prejudice even. i just wasnt close w my mom idk #like sure i know some spanish and have eaten the food but i just feel no connection anymore. i used too. its weird #again i just prefer to call myself slightly brown/ambiguous American or something lol it just feels more accurate #its not self hate i just legit dont connect... i feel like an outsider and thats okay. i think it was due to how i was raised really. #my white side was shitty too but they were more involved in my life so i guess thats why despite being brown-ish #i saw myself as white for 17 yrs of my life til i had a therapist (of color) say something like #“i bet you relate since you are also of color” and i was in shock and confusion like #i told her “uh no im white i dont know what you mean” and it caused some cognitive dissonancee #so i asked a few ppl what they saw me as and it shattered my view that i looked 100% white passing #its like how ducks imprint on who raised them. my white grandma and aunt raised me so i just saw myself as white?? idk #its still a weird feeling and nowadays i dont really like identifying my race or ethnicity to ppl idk #maybe this all sounds weird i dont know #but its how i genuinely feel; unfiltered and all #again i like mexican culture a lot i just often don't feel like its “my roots” it feels more like #im appreciating someone elses culture which makes sense bc i was raised as a gringo!! yk? #its not really “my roots” it's my moms roots but not mine #altho ngl i feel kinship with first/2nd gen latinos... #i think a lot of them have similar feelings like me minus the mix race stuff #well actually many of them r probably mix race too idk i mostly meet 1st gen ppl who have 2 immigrant parents tho #and yesss i know latinos can be any race. i know i. #im just rambling incoherently

DND MOVIE IS SO FUCKING GOOD

#i can't say enough about how good it is!!!! #it really feels like watching a dnd campaign like its SO accurate #the makers really knew what they were doing and it really really feels like they gave a shit to make a good movie #it's so well made but still campy and the characters and plot are sooo good #and as a fan of the forgotten realms universe it was so fun to try and catch all the references #but they didnt even feel like references bc its so in universe! #and they use like actual recognizeable 5e spells i kept wanting to call them out as i saw them #literally the most fun I've had at a movie maybe ever but certainly in a long time #buying it on dvd the instant it comes out #personal #GO SEE THIS MOVIE #if you like dnd you will have a blast

It feels great to see someone else watch Fernando's show. Especially someone who also questions the cinematography on some parts.

I'm still just ??? at how unknown it is? Like anyone I've told about it had no idea it even existed. So it's fun to post it on here, to spread it and see people's reactions hahaha. But seriously the cinematography choices are uh....interesting to say the least! I just have so many questions for the director.....

Because there's a lot of cool cinematography, for example any of him in the Dakar had such beautiful shots, but then in the same episode there's just the most horny scenes I've ever seen??? If you remember, there's that spa scene in e4, I wanna gif it but like even after seeing it several times, I still can't watch it without my head in my hands, bcs it just feels so dirty to me 🫠

#haha the scene that got me to actually watch it is in s2 i think? #ive not gotten there but #that scene as well was like #lowkey dirty #bcs he flirts w the camera and calls it 'a bit erotic' #LIKE WHO WAS BEHIND THESE DECISIONS?????? #but also yes im rly happy i found out about it! #ive mentioned this but its what i wish dts was actually like #behind the scenes material but without any unnecessary drama and the timeline isnt messed up and hard to follow #and i also thinm its great bcs it gives a great view into him #its like when drivers write books abt their time #you can see how they perceive them themselves and others and what their goals are and how they acheive them #thats why i like it more than dts bcs it doesnt feel like an outside force is controlling the narrative #its purely how he wants to be perceived however accurate or innacurate it rly is but its how he wants it #i wish there was this much content of every driver! its just very cool :) #catie.asks

sea of thieves ships make me sad, but like, in the way that you get when you see unhealthy cat breeds. like. holy shit where are the shrouds. where are the staysails. actually where are the stays in general. there should be ratlines but instead there are ladders and they aren't even on all of the masts. who combined the clewlines and sheets what is wrong with you. do any of them even have jibs. halyards. sails past an upper topsail or a t'gallant. anything. who is breeding these ships i want to speak to the person in charge

#candy posts #unreality #<- just in case #this post is literally just me exposing myself as an obnoxious sailor but sea of thieves innacuracies are my one and only pet peeve #the ships look like plastic kids toys but in the worst possible way #''its stylised'' yeah well stylised humans still have fingers and legs and ears and shit #stop leaving out essential anatomical features just to appeal to a ''simplistic'' and ''pretty'' style. its bad for the boats. #they need shrouds to be healthy. do you want the fucking masts to topple or break. i dont fucking think so #i do actually think that they miiight have halyards but i can barely fucking tell and all the yards look pretty tightly affixed which is :/ #i will not play your sailing game until you make the ships and mechanics more accurate. bitch. i will die on this fucking hill #if anyone wants to know what any of the weird sailing words in this post mean then feel free to ask me #but you may be signing yourself up for a long ass lecture #sailing terms are extensive and make no sense unless you take into account the fact that its been a thing for like. several millenia #and often words get smashed together or shortened (haul yards (function) -> halyard etc) #cant explain why theres a rope thats called a horse tho. ive never understood that one

[theabstruseone]

I slept in and just woke up, so here's what I've been able to figure out while sipping coffee:

Twitter has officially rebranded to X just a day or two after the move was announced.

The official branding is that a tweet is now called "an X", for which there are too many jokes to make.

The official account is still @twitter because someone else owns @X and they didn't reclaim the username first.

The logo is 𝕏 which is the Unicode character Unicode U+1D54F so the logo cannot be copyrighted and it is highly likely that it cannot be protected as a trademark.

Outside the visual logo, the trademark for the use of the name "X" in social media is held by Meta/Facebook, while the trademark for "X" in finance/commerce is owned by Microsoft.

The rebranding has been stopped in Japan as the term "X Japan" is trademarked by the band X JAPAN.

Elon had workers taking down the "Twitter" name from the side of the building. He did not have any permits to do this. The building owner called the cops who stopped the crew midway through so the sign just says "er".

He still plans to call his streaming and media hosting branch of the company as "Xvideo". Nobody tell him.

This man wants you to give him control over all of your financial information.

Edit to add further developments:

Yes, this is all real. Check the notes and people have pictures. I understand the skepticism because it feels like a joke, but to the best of my knowledge, everything in the above is accurate.

Microsoft also owns the trademark on X for chatting and gaming because, y'know, X-box.

The logo came from a random podcaster who tweeted it at Musk.

The act of sending a tweet is now known as "Xeet". They even added a guide for how to Xeet.

The branding change is inconsistent. Some icons have changed, some have not, and the words "tweet" and "Twitter" are still all over the place on the site.

TweetDeck is currently unaffected and I hope it's because they forgot that it exists again. The complete negligence toward that tool and just leaving it the hell alone is the only thing that makes the site usable (and some of us are stuck on there for work).

This is likely because Musk was forced out of PayPal due to a failed credit line project and because he wanted to rename the site to "X-Paypal" and eventually just to "X".

This became a big deal behind the scenes as Musk paid over $1 million for the domain X.com and wanted to rebrand the company that already had the brand awareness people were using it as a verb to "pay online" (as in "I'll paypal you the money")

X.com is not currently owned by Musk. It is held by a domain registrar (I believe GoDaddy but I'm not entirely sure). Meaning as long as he's hung onto this idea of making X Corp a thing, he couldn't be arsed to pay the $15/year domain renewal.

Bloomberg estimates the rebranding wiped between $4 to $20 billion from the valuation of Twitter due to the loss of brand awareness.

The company was already worth less than half of the $44 billion Musk paid for it in the first place, meaning this may end up a worse deal than when Yahoo bought Tumblr.

One estimation (though this is with a grain of salt) said that Twitter is three months from defaulting on its loans taken out to buy the site. Those loans were secured with Tesla stock. Meaning the bank will seize that stock and, since it won't be enough to pay the debt (since it's worth around 50-75% of what it was at the time of the loan), they can start seizing personal assets of Elon Musk including the Twitter company itself and his interest in SpaceX.

Sesame Street's official accounts mocked the rebranding.

It feels weird existing in this body, with this voice that isn't mine, this name that isn't mine, these emotions that aren't mine. It only brings more confusion when there is more than one of us present. Who is the one speaking, we can't tell. This voice belongs to none of us, or the us that would be if we were whole. Odd thoughts.
