November, 2022
''You know I don't like surprises, Guk.'' Jieun's whiny voice echoed through the private garage of Jungkook's apartment complex.
Her boyfriend giggled, guiding her to the right place as his hands covered her eyes. ''I know, but it's amusing seeing you like this.''
Jieun had been patiently waiting in Jungkook's apartment for him to come back home from schedules. Once he arrived, she wanted to give him a hug and a kiss, but he immediately covered her eyes and told her he had a surprise for her downstairs.
''Alright, here we are! Are you ready, babe?'' Jungkook asked her, his voice a bit higher due to the excitement of the surprise.
''No.''
''Love your enthusiasm!''
His hands disappeared before her eyes and she was me with a Harley Davidson parked next to her car. Jieun frowned her eyebrows, confused as to what it was doing there. ''A motorcycle?''
''It's mine!'' He exclaimed, swinging an arm around her, bringing her closer to the motorcycle. ''It's big, isn't it?'' Jungkook admired the machine.
Jieun's eyes slowly moved from the Harley to her boyfriend, still confused as to how this was a surprise for her. ''So you bought a motorcycle for yourself and somehow this is a surprise for me?''
''Remember we were watching that movie about two weeks ago and the lead guy was riding a motorcycle and Nayeon-noona said he looked cool, and you agreed with her?'' He explained to her, reminding her of their hangout at Jieun's dorm with Nayeon and Momo.
She nodded. ''Yes, I do.''
''Well, the next day, I did some research and I found that you need a certain licence to drive one of these,'' he pointed at the machine, ''so, I went to a nearby driving academy, and I took this 3-day training program and I had to do this test at the end of it, and I got a perfect score.'' He rambled on, seemingly not taking one breath.
To say she was speechless, was truly an understatement.
''So what you're saying is that you spent 3 days studying and training to get your motorcycle licence, because I agreed with someone that it looked cool in a movie?'' Jieun summarised, wanting to make sure she heard everything right.
Jungkook nodded, not seeing what the big deal was. ''Yeah, why?''
Jieun moved Jungkook's arm, so he wasn't holding her anymore. She moved both her hands around his waist, pulling him closer to her. Her touch gave him goosebumps as they itched closer to one another.
Her left hand moved from his waist to his neck, bringing his head slightly down to hers. ''You're fucking unbelievable.'' She murmured, before putting her lips against his.
She could feel Jungkook smiling into the kiss, happy that she liked the surprise. He momentarily broke the soft kiss, whispering a gentle ''Don't you think it's kinda hot?'' He smirked, raising one eyebrow.
Jieun mirrored his smirk, cupping his face. ''Yeah, it's gonna be really hot when I get a call that you're laying in the hospital because of that thing.''
''Ji, I'm really good, you know? My instructor said it doesn't happen a lot that his students get a perfect score,'' Jungkook told her, proudly padding his own chest, ''and you know, if it's late at night-''
''I'm not getting on that thing with you.'' Jieun concluded, already knowing where he was going with that sentence.
Jungkook groaned. ''Please, just one time! I really want to experience it.'' He complained, a pout forming on his face.
''Oh, honey,'' Jieun caressed his cheek, ''then maybe ask your other girlfriend, I'm sure she would love it.'' He chuckled at her words. ''I already asked her, but she's very busy these days.''
''How about once you're completely comfortable with the Harley, we take a little ride around the city?'' She suggested with a soft smile on her face and a slight tilt of the head. Jungkook planted a kiss on her forehead. ''Alright, I can't wait.''
''Let's go back upstairs again, eh?'' Jieun told him, grabbing his hand.
''Oh babe, you don't have to worry about people seeing us in here, it's a closed space.'' Jungkook assured her, wrapping his arms around her.
''Oh no, it's just that I had put some snacks on the low coffee table and Bam is alone in the apartment right now.''

Thank you for always answering our questions, and since you said you have lots of free time here’s some more ;)
1) How did you come up with the idea for The Black Menagerie? As I’ve said before, it’s delightfully weird in the best way, I don’t think I’ve ever read an AU fic with a plot like this. I’m very much enjoying it though and look forward to the next chapter.
2) When you’re writing longer fics, how do you stop yourself from rushing the plot? If I try to write linear stories I always end up rushing to the part I’m looking forward to.
3) Do you think we could have a sneak peek at a page or two of the holy scriptures? Of stuff that you’ve already written, of course, just so we can see how the outline looks.
4) Do you have any other tv shows outside of Wednesday that you enjoy at the moment?
5) Who was your favourite character in the Wednesday series? Outside of your fic lmao.
6) Do you have any little rituals for when you write? Like a specific place or drinking coffee idk.
7) Not really a question in itself, but I have LOTS of questions about teaching and I’m deeply considering going into the education world. Do you think you could send me a private message so I can ask the questions there instead of pestering all your followers inbox? If you’re uncomfortable you don’t have to :)
Thanks again!
1 - The Black Menagerie is in part inspired by this print I’ve had in my house forever, Morgan Adams’ vlog on YouTube where she has had issue after issue with contractors trying to renovate her own house, and the first little beginning arc is inspired by real life in a big city - I live in one of the “top rattiest” cities in the US according to the 2023 Orkin data. It’s a daily occurrence to run into some sort of vermin here. This was an average day in my classroom last year:
Tumblr media
They are not afraid of the kids, but they are afraid of loud music. The children requested Ozzy Osbourne and I’d turn the speaker at them and they’d go back in the pipes where they came from. (We have a new custodian this year and we have significantly fewer pests but I did have a cockroach go crawling over a kid having a meltdown already in the cozy corner in my classroom on Tuesday - that did not help the meltdown.) Rats are a huge problem on our playground and one day I heard bickering under the slide only to discover the children were fighting over who was going to get the ‘magic powers’ from a disembodied rat paw they found. I put it in the compost and still I’m waiting for it to come back to me in some way - I just don’t feel like I’ve seen the end of it.
But largely I just wanted to write something cute and different! Chapter two (just finished this morning) has some surprises so I won't give that away yet, but a little bit just inspired by the idea of local drama and tapping into Enid's vlogger side. AND ALSO - the Amy Adams and Emily Blunt 2008 movie "Sunshine Cleaning" ;) you'll see.
2 - I love to torture the reader first and foremost because it’s fun and I enjoy it, but also I LOVE building constant rising action and climax and then back to rising action. To me, character development is key and I can’t rush them through situations. That said, as I write my stories out of order I do often write the first draft of a scene that I’m looking forward to in order to get it out of my system, then I know what I need to do to ‘get them to that point.’
3 - Absolutely not lmfao my handwriting is atrocious and I’m not showing it off lol.
4 - Spirit High on Netflix was cool and I’m looking forward to the second season, I just finished Harley Quinn S4 on HBO, and I’m re-watching House, M.D. at the moment, and I often put on the OG Addams Family before I go to bed, it’s a 24/7 channel on Amazon Prime’s free TV service. I really don’t actually watch much TV ordinarily I have a hard time focusing on it if it’s not something I already have seen, I usually need to watch with Tracey to enjoy something new. 
5 - I hadn’t related to a character as much as I did to this interpretation of Wednesday in a long time (hence the 1.4 million word exploration of what was next for her) haha. I thought Eugene was cute. Hated what they did with Moritica, which again - is the resulting 1.4 million word story to fix that. Morticia is usually my favorite part of the franchise. 
6 - I write best in quiet, honestly “silence would be appreciated” - not even instrumental music playing in the background (though I’ve gotten better at tolerating that on the green music application). I also prefer to write in my bed against my skull reading pillow thing. And of course I need my Toasted Graham coffee from that awful “Seattle based-brand” I’m sure I’m supposed to be boycotting with just a splash of unsweetened oat milk in it in a 20 oz black Yeti rambler (NO HANDLE). I’m very exciting and…ritualistic haha. Honestly I /can/ write anywhere, I managed to write in my childhood bedroom that has since been painted a putrid shade of blue while my parents were arguing about how much money to pay the pastor for a funeral this morning. 
7 - Maybe, reply to this with an honest answer if you are 18+ (not that I’m asking for verification but I’d feel better lol).

Batfam and Superfam + as Chapsticks
Bruce: Basic Medicated Blistex - everybody knows this one and has most likely used it at some point. mf burns your lips though, not for the faint of lip 
Selina: Vaseline Rosy Lip Therapy - one of the popular faves, this one is somehow always getting lost?         ((who else loves the pop and click)) 
Clark: Classic Burt's Bees - a sweet but strong lip balm, seen everywhere but also not for everyone
Lois: Classic Chapstick Cherry, Spearmint, and Strawberry Lip Balm - multifaceted, a balm for your best moments, iconic
Dick: Carmex Classic Lip Balm - the balm you swipe 30 layers on but this shit strong. prepare your lips for peeling and your nose for the fumes. do NOT underestimate.
Wally: Eos Vanilla Bean Lip Balm - so f*ing smooth but always gone when you need it, youll pat your pockets for a while until you realize you either left it, finished it, or lost it 
Starfire: C.O. Bigelow My Favorite Night Balm - this balm will change your life. You WILL be left with an inch thick coat of this stuff on your lips and you WILL never use anything else 
Jason: Vaseline Cocoa Butter Lip Therapy Tub - a little bit different form of lip care, but those who give it a chance will have the healthiest lips , you gotta let it set though! 
Roy: Palmers Coconut Oil Formula - overlooked until deeper into your chapstick journey unless you started here, now you open the cap just for the smell 
Tim: Chapstick Coffee Collection - no comment just laughs, leaning into that Tim Coffee Addict stereotype 
Conner: Eos Spheres (any and all flavors) - was SUPER (*) popular, huge surge, then faded into the background go queen live a normal life 
Damian: Carmex Cherry Medicated Lip Balm - if you open and apply this mf in a public space be ready for some looks. if you use this on the regular and dont flinch you either have broken glass for lips or you eat broken glass for breakfast 
Jon: Nivea Cherry Shine Lip Balm - super cute design super cute flavor but stronger than you think, you apply it in 3 swipes religiously no more no less 
Diana: Chapstick Classic Spearmint - apply at your own risk. seen as an "older person's" chapstick but really the person who uses this chapstick has seen their fair share and chews ice for fun
Harley: Lip Smacker Best Flavor Forever - the variety pack you find at your local Claire's but think about fondly when your brain gives you junior high memories at 3 am
((this is a FANFICTION, do not take as professional / genuine lip care advice. 
I AM NOT A DOCTOR.))

New(ish) Comics (this is the best week of the month, no lie)
Batman – Santa Claus: Silent Knight #1: this is fun. I like the way Bruce and Damian are written together. I am annoyed Babs is out as Batgirl. I'm amused that Tim is very specifically excluded from the story that involves real Santa given he'd not be wondering 'ooh oooh is Santa real' like Dick is here.
Someone had better give Darkseid some coal, is all I can say.
Batman #139: …so we really are running Batman and Batman & Robin with contradictory plots right now. Cmon. There was even a way to finagle this so that Damian could be living with Bruce and have Zdarsky’s plot still work! Grump.
“I’m coming for you, Joker. I’m coming for all three of you. For the last time.” (actually there’s a printing error in this line and the letterer has ‘For the the last time’) I disbelieve this Zdarsky, sorry, though if you could figure out a way to get Joker out of the Bat books for a few years I think everyone would enjoy that.
Now that aside, I do want to note that apparently my decision to (re)read all of Henri Ducard’s appearances seems to have been prescient, given Zdarsky has just referred to ‘manhunting’, ‘training when I was young’ and ‘Paris’ all together. That’s Ducard. That trio is 100% Ducard. Sounds like I need to finish Henri Ducard’s post-2016 appearances, which I was delaying. So Batman: The Detective and Batman: The Knight are jumping up my reading list. (And a quick look at ‘Lucie Chesson’ says she’s from Batman: The Knight, so yep, gotta read)
Joker + dolls always makes me think of NML Endgame, personally.
Birds of Prey #3: Damn this continues to just be a solid read. Thompson keeps hitting yet another 'look I can be trusted' target every issue.
I could do with at least 30% less Harley commentary in this book, but I do acknowledge that at least half the team are unlikely to talk much in a combat situation. Future!Maps is cute and as I slowly approach Maps content I’m excited to meet her more. Also… SIN MY SWEETHEART. I have been waiting for this hug for SIXTEEN YEARS. (Literally. I was in DC fandom in 2007 when they were torn apart). Also loooooooooool Ollie got curbstomped by Diana, sucks to be you Ollie.
Blue Beetle #3: Oh I couldn’t help myself (in terms of how many panels I already posted), but Blue Beetle is doing such interesting things right now. Victoria’s finally being acknowledged on page as being super sus and villainous (rather than just slinking around being sus and concerning me deeply). I’m getting more and more worried about the identity of the Red Beetle. We got Traci back! Which from what I hear means that Trujillo is glossing over some of Traci’s recent characterisation, but we’ll see how this tracks (and in any case, re-establishing Jaime’s connections to the magic/dark side of DC via Traci is helpful if we’re about to do a Dan Garrett story).
Free my girl Dani Garrett if we’re doing a Dan Garrett storyline, she’s an autistic mildly amoral archaeologist and I desperately, DESPERATELY want to see her arguing with Victoria Kord over who ‘owns’ the scarab while Jaime’s standing in the middle going ‘excuse me nobody owns Khaji Da, it’s its own being! And my friend!’
Fire & Ice: Welcome to Smallville #3: hello Jimmy Olsen! Hello Turtle Jimmy lore! (I love how silly this book is. I do enjoy JLI stuff that doesn’t take itself seriously) I’m getting attached to a few of the new villains, particularly Linka Grodd.
Shazam! #5: MARY SIGHTING. Darla remains tiny and adorable and I love her too. This comic remains committed to ridiculous fun villains (and Waid and Mora have apparently been off raiding the ‘underused weird Silver Age villains’ list). Mr Dinosaur is an amazing addition to the canon. (And yes. Billy rebuilt the moon. Oh Shazam!) Also I see we are still back firmly in the ‘jealous Freddie’ plot that’s been hanging around for a while.
Warlord #25: this week we check back in with Tara, Mariah and Machiste. Grell’s done some fabulous art for the splash page that I really really like.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Travis is fighting *checks notes* snow giants as he's still too ashamed to come hang out with his friends and partner after the whole 'I killed Joshua' incident a few issues back. He's also cutting all sort of things with his Damascus Steel sword which I have to remind everyone and note is highly suspicious damascus steel, because it's made from a RIFLE and there is no way the type of steel used was able to be worked as damascene, given it likely was alloyed wrong.
Tumblr media
I love Ashir here (the guy actually wearing clothes) as firstly, look! A rare appearance of someone with most of their skin covered! Secondly, Travis' burn of "I didn't know you had character".
Anyway, Travis is moping a bit here about being a lone warrior. You could go and hang out with your friends any time you want, Travis. You're the one who left, not them.

Ask game for Peter Parker and Rick Flag? :)
Oooh thank you!
Send Me a Character and I'll Give You...
You didn't specify which Peter Parker (and I am NOT going through all of them, no offense) so I'll go with Andrew Garfield's since I like his version best
Peter
1: sexuality headcanon - oh so bi. the most bi. nobody on the planet earth is more bisexual 2: otp - HIM AND GWEN. One of my favorite fictional couples of all time. 3: brotp - Him and the other Peters in No Way Home. They had such a wonderful brotherly dynamic 4: notp - Him and Tobey Maguire's Peter. It started cropping up after No Way Home and it just... no. It's a little weird to begin with, and they act more like friends or brothers in the movie anyway 5: first headcanon that pops into my head - Knows a few Yiddish swears - Ben would swear in Yiddish instead of English when he was a kid, trying to keep him from picking it up, but he picked it up anyway 6: favorite line from this character - Not a line so much as a moment but in AS-M2 when he's about to go fight Electro and he literally webs Gwen to the car and shouts "I'm sorry! I love you!" as he's running away. It's too cute! 7: one way in which I relate to this character - I feel like the way he talks is relatable to me. I too ping-pong wildly between coming off as very witty or just being an awkward stammering mess when I'm caught off-guard 8: thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character - For some reason, the "we have no chimney" scene. It's funny but always gives me a little twinge of secondhand embarrassment too 9: cinnamon roll or problematic fave? - CINNAMON ROLL
Rick
1: sexuality headcanon - bi/pan but would only really process it after Harley randomly calls him out on it 2: otp - uhh... does it count if I say Eris? Their chaotic relationship is just so much fun 3: brotp - I LOVE his friendship with Harley (I see a lot of fics with them as romantic partners but I like them so much better as friends) 4: notp - him and Peacemaker. Saw it on AO3 a while back and was just like... why? No shade to those that do enjoy it, I just don't get it 5: first headcanon that pops into my head - Cannot sleep in. It's a remnant from his military days, but the latest he can ever make himself sleep when he's not sick or injured is about 8:30 AM, and that's pushing it. Most days he's up and moving by dawn, even if he has nothing to get up for. 6: favorite line from this character - Anything from the scene on the rooftop when they're debriefing Thinker. It's just such a fun scene, such a good blend of focus and chaos. Or just anything where he's interacting with Harley. 7: one way in which I relate to this character - Big dog energy (looking scary at a glance but being really friendly once you get to know me) 8: thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character - they did him dirty with that death scene, that's all I'll say 9: cinnamon roll or problematic fave? - Originally a problematic fave, but they fixed his character SO much with the 2021 Suicide Squad and now he's a cinnamon roll

Pop Pop! (that's my nickname for you, if that's alright witcha)
*cleats throat* i would like to make a request if i can.
can you write some platonic baji keisuke headcanons with a bestie who is also his partner in crime? i just want some chaotic x chaotic menaces to society hcs😈
MENACE!
Tumblr media
A/N: Omg Pop pop! That's so cute (。T ω T。)🤎. I'll call you...Saki saki then (that one song ifykyk)
Characters: (Platonic) Baji Keisuke x reader Genre: FLUFF
Tumblr media
Now think of the Dynamic this way: Baji AND Nobara from JJK!
You guys are literally the most unhinged people in the world and TBH I would literally not even be in the same building as you.
Baji and Chifuyu actually give the vibe of besties; you and Baji look like siblings at times.
This guy is menacing and scary, he is not afraid of getting hurt, but holy; if you get hurt even the slightest...some cars are getting burnt tonight.
Speaking of burnt...ARSON PLAYDATES! (Yep, that's a thing, according to him.)It is so fun to watch the heart rise while you two chuckle like Joker and Harley.
He invites you to his house and his mother absolutely loves you, but at the same time she asks you to urge him to study because she is just so concerned 😓.
I headcanon him as someone whose love language is gift-giving, so he buys the most random things for you. Comics, brass knuckles, hair ties, cat ears???
Also, he tells EVERYTHING that goes on between you and him to Kazutora. --Your crush on Mitsuya? Kazu knows. Are you skipping a class? Kazu knows. The time when you tried to subtly fart? Kazu KNOWS.
He is the kind of guy is who’s the only response to any kind of insult is“YoUr MoM.”
You: “Baji you look like shit.”  Baji: “jOe MAmA” *insert windshield wiper laugh* You: "What if someone said that to your mom?" Baji:
That's what I thought :/
Also you two have a secret joke. So every time Draken walks past the two of you, you two start laughing like hyenas and poor Kenny is so confused.
Baji: Oi do you know Draken? You: ...Baji No... Baji: DRAKEN DEEZ NUTS-
One time you and Baji set fire to a car with people still inside...no one got hurt, but the two of you got scolded by a very naked couple in the middle of the road.
You have scratch marks from Peke J all over you.

LietPol Headcanons
yay!!! love them <3
so in the early fandom days i used to read a lot of lietpol and write a bit of it, this time around i haven't given it much thought but it's such a good ship and deserves more attention imho. i consider them an old married couple much like england and france.
the femdom ship of all time (i don't have a solid gender headcanon for poland but he seems so bigender to me... like my babygirl. or maybe he's non binary or just a flamboyant femboy. anyway.)
you know the 4 pm dick flattening meme? yeah that's them.
"he asked for no pickles" but liet is already eating the sandwich made incorrectly bc he doesn't really give a fuck. acceptable sandwich.
they're probably toxic in a way that looks really fun and cute externally. there is no way feliks isn't some flavor of crazy. but its ok he's so quirky about it!!! he likes pretending he's harley quinn or some shit. he's such a messy bitch and never grew out of it. he calls tolys daddy despite keeping the man's balls in a ziplock bag in his knockoff louis vuitton.
as far as tolys he's a very multifacted character but i can't see him as like this badass that he's apparently portrayed as in recent fandom.
he's socially awkward and neurotic and tired of everyone and poland is his biggest migraine but that bussy game is ridiculous and he gets off on being treated poorly. he keeps repeating happy wife happy life like some sort of mantra while completely losing his shit. i don't think he's actually like a pathetic wet noodle i do think he could be kind of a simp but it's inadvertent he's just trying to appease feliks because that satisfied lil smirk and evil gay laugh is what he lives for.
but it's not all that, they do have their sappy romantic moments, are emotionally vulnerable with one another, and have a lot of fun together. i see them playing jokes on each other a lot, watching movies together and snuggling, finding new hobbies that they can do as a couple like cooking or completing 'challenges' like. '30 autumn date ideas' or watching films off a list. and shopping together!!!
i see feliks putting in a lot of effort to cheer tolys up when he's down and if he ever does actually hurt his self esteem he's quick to apologize, reassure him, and make it up to him however he wants. i feel like tolys isn't a super romantic guy in general, at least he has trouble displaying it, but he's always in awe of how he managed to land such a cutie and doesn't let feliks forget that he's appreciated.

book recs pls? U have amazing taste
im gonna assume this is half in reference to the lilith vincent book i mentioned earlier so i'll give you some of my favorite romances 💞 i tried not to rec a book i've already suggested here before, so some of my very favorites ever are left out!
the authors I'll read like literally anything by are Tessa Bailey, Lily Gold, Ana Huang, J.T. Geissinger, Elsie Silver, Harley Laroux, Rina Kent... and probably someone I'm forgetting tbh but those are some of my favs
also i got a little out of hand and these are kinda all over the place lmao, but here we go! my standards for romance are very low btw so don't judge my taste
Darker romances:
Sticking with Lilith Vincent - I love her books Brutal Intentions and (to a lesser extent) Pageant. Brutal Intentions is a step-dad romance, Pageant (the first of two books, I think the second is wayyy better) is like... dark, mafia, reverse harem, kidnapping, a whole lot tbh. Look up trigger warnings!!! I think she lists them at the start of the book
I don't particularly like H.D. Carlton (I very much so disliked Haunting/Hunting Adeline) but I fucking LOVED her book Does It Hurt? If you want fucked up characters, toxic relationships, noncon, and a pretty well-written subplot for a self-published romance I would recommend this one! (tbh I'm half convinced it's ghostwritten, I cant fathom Haunting Adeline and Does It Hurt? being written by the same person)
Sinners Anonymous & it's sequels by Somme Sketcher. Mafia romance. Age-gap. Kinda trashy but very fun imo. Also read Danielle Lori's Made series if that sounds neat to you!
M.L. Marian's Claimed & Tamed series. Each book follows a different man in the same family where the tradition is that men kidnap their wives. My favorite is Caught <3
Romcoms/Lighter stuff:
I like most Mariana Zapata books, but my favorite is either Under Locke or Luna and the Lie. I've read 7 of her books and they're all basically the same structure with the same characters, so if you read one and like the dynamics you'll probably like her others
One Percent of You by Michelle Gross is my favorite single mom romance of all time. Tattoo artist who hates kids falls in love with his over-worked neighbor who's a single mother of two. SO cute and soft
Bittersweet by Morgan Elizabeth. tattoo artist x baker, this is one of my favorite romcoms ever.
Sunny Disposition by Deanna Gray. Amnesia, college, hockey, roommates to lovers, this is a very soft and fun read that I enjoyed as a bit of a palette cleanser. Iirc it was a little long, but a good time
Other??:
When a Scot Ties the Knot by Tessa Dare. I don't like historical romance much, but this doesn't really feel like one to me! A woman makes up a soldier to write letters to so she can avoid getting married, and years later he shows up on her doorstep ready for their wedding. This is so much fun
Transcendence by Shay Savage - two words for you: Caveman Romance. This is told entirely from the caveman's perspective and tells the story of him meeting a woman who's very odd (because she's from the future) and their life together. It drags a little bit at times, but I think it's so so fun and the end had me crying
King by TM Frazier goes a little off the rails, but I had fun with it. The main character is called 'Pup' for like 90% of the book and that was enough for me. Our FMC has amnesia and is taken in by a local gang leader and the plot goes from there
Under His Heel by Adara Wolf - ok before I say what this is about, I cannot overstate how dark and fucked up this book series is. They're disturbing. I loved them, I've read them all at least twice, but they are deeply upsetting. It takes place in space in the far distant future and follows our main character Alex as he becomes an indentured servant for a sociopath named Captain Tracht. These books are a weird mix of porn and plot, but if you want fucked up smut and fucked up relationship dynamics, this is the holy grail

Barbie Movie Review
Includes Spoilers
Tumblr media
So it took me awhile to get around to watch this movie, it was never at the top of my list but was bored the other night so sat down and watched it. So there is alot wrong as well as right about this movie. I know so many just tear it down but there are a few things I want to point out that was done right. So I know I have read so many couples have broke up over this movie since its about women empowerment. I feel like if your a close minded person that don't realize women deserve to be happy as well then yeah you probably will have a issue with this movie. First off I thought Margo Robbie did a good job in this role which surprised me because to think of her as harley quinn to barbie is kind of a stretch however she has the look for barbie.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
To me it was fun and light hearted and honestly made me smile. It also brought back some of my own childhood in the little things they did.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I love they incorperated Allan, midge, a full figured woman, and one that was a bit weird. This made it ok that maybe everyone has a place to fit in and can be apart of the barbie world too, this I loved. Being a plus size woman myself I was glad they did it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The outfits reminded me of some of the barbie's I had growing with a twist of now days ones as well. I do like that it was centered around Barbie and that Ken really was just a side character. I say this because even as a child I had like 10 barbie's to one ken.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
What amazed me is the doll houses they were so spot on to the types I remember in the 90's. Like the fact this movie didn't just focus on now days barbie and ken but really wide spread I loved.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I thought it was cool how they really played off how they would be in our world and how they would stand out as well. The connection between the woman and her daughter and Barbie I loved because I feel like when I was growing up Barbie was everything to me as well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It was a really cute movie though and I love the one quote that really does his home and is so true.
"It is literally impossible to be a woman. You are so beautiful, and so smart, and it kills me that you don't think you're good enough. Like, we have to always be extraordinary, but somehow we're always doing it wrong.
"You have to be thin, but not too thin. And you can never say you want to be thin. You have to say you want to be healthy, but also you have to be thin. You have to have money, but you can't ask for money because that's crass. You have to be a boss, but you can't be mean. You have to lead, but you can't squash other people's ideas. You're supposed to love being a mother, but don't talk about your kids all the damn time. You have to be a career woman but also always be looking out for other people. You have to answer for men's bad behavior, which is insane, but if you point that out, you're accused of complaining. You're supposed to stay pretty for men, but not so pretty that you tempt them too much or that you threaten other women because you're supposed to be a part of the sisterhood."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even though I like Ryan Gosling honestly I would rather go back to seeing him with his natural hair color and in something like The Notebook than this. I forgot how much pink goes into barbie though so by the end of the movie I was so ready to see any color but pink, never been a huge fan of it anyways.
Tumblr media
I'm glad in the end she decided to be in the real world she fit so much better. I hate ken had to get hurt the way he did but he also hurt barbie without enough respect for her he hurt her cause he was hurting and sadly thats not the right action when you get hurt. I also hated the clothing choice for ken like did they get it from, and eccentric antique store. Over all out of 5 stars I give it a strong 3 because it has no replayable value to it. It wasn't great was just good, in my opinion however I am glad I finally sat down to watch it. I recommend if your going to watch it, get hbo max and get it with the subscription or just get a months subscription to buy with.

I think this question got asked on here b4 but it was only for RoTT so, if the CoI characters were real what would be you favorite and/or least favorite thing about them?
Oooh yeah I remember this question. Here we go.
Mordred: My least favourite thing about Mordy would be his hotheadedness. Though I enjoy that kind of thing in fiction (as you can probably see), irl it's a very different beast to deal with. My favorite thing about him would be his looks how fun he is to be around when he's actually around.
Carol: No-nonsense women intimidate me, however I would think it's cute how she melts for Lowrie. I do not think we'd be friends but we'd be polite acquaintances, perhaps even coworkers.
Lowrie: I'm quiet, Lowrie is quiet, one would think that would be a god match. However, no, Lowrie would probably bore me as a real person. I guess we could bond over our ex-horsegirl(TM) status???
Ridley: Least favorite, their silent stubbornness. They may not voice it but they will do the thing they said they wouldn't do anyway. Favourite thing would be their mind <3
Doc: I would not like her very dry humour. It's so dry that I wouldn't be able to tell it's a joke. Like uncooked instant noodles. I would like all the stories she has to tell about her travels :)
Harley: See, I think we'd actually get along. My favourite thing about them would be their fashion taste and colourful shirts (I would have gender-envy for them), least favourite thing is how they would just drop hang out time for a pretty face.
Allard: Hmm. Hard to say if there would be anything I'd like about them in real life. I enjoy writing bastards but interacting with them? I'd rather not get stabbed for fun.
Arthur: He is a sad, wet man and I have a thing for sad, wet men, but his stubbornness would annoy me because it's the type that makes it harder for friends and loved ones to be let in. My favourite thing about him would be how he always manages to come through for people.
Deimos: Least favorite thing would be the grumpiness and, you know, his very violent line of work. Favourite thing would be his drinks. (I don't think we'd get along very well)
Adrastea: I would not like much about them because Adrastea is apologetically Bourgeoisie and someone who wouldn't really want things to change. I guess I'd like her extensive wardrobe.
Saga: We'd have conversations about gender you wouldn't believe... The best thing about them would be how they are apologetically devoted to their friends and loved one, the worst would be that they never stop gushing about their partner.
Perci: She would scare me. She would also radicalize me. We'll just see what comes first :)
Dagda: Unfortunately for Dagda, they'd probably be my least favorite person in the world because unfortunately for Dagda I have now met someone very similar to them in many ways and absolutely did not get along with the worst of those traits. I guess my favorite thing about them would be that they know how to have fun.

is there any particular outfit piece that ur looking 2 get/is on your wishlist? if so what is ur plan with it & where would u wear it to
the most specific outfit piece ive looked 4 was a leather harley davidson halter top which i found THIS YEAR after abt a year n 1/2 of watching ebay listings n waiting but usually i try not to focus too much on super duper specific items of clothing cuz ill get fixated n do nothing else BUT look 4 it ... most of what i like is just casual clothing, jeans, tank tops n shirts cuz i do literally 3 things: eat, sleep, thrash, repeat. kidding LOL but i really just like being comfy. i do have a couple pieces like my beloved harley top tht i bust out 4 parties n that sorta thing (wore it when i played my last show lol) but other than that ... i am kickin it in my dirty ass sneakers jeans n a tank top LOL !! i always always always keep my eyes peeled 4 things tht remind me of my favorite parts of fashion from the 70s n mid/late 2000s (well like. 2003-12 tbh its not exactly pure mid 2000s cuz of my love 4 jersey shore n their clothes) !! that being said. the top 3 like...pieces im always keeping an eye n an ear 2 the ground (ebay) 4: (read more cuz there r pics <3)
lowrise jeans w fun things on the back pockets / butt, like these super cute jeans from red pepper !!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i love love love the look of big patches on jeans esp in the back i feel like its so playful n fun n a little sexy !! i dont like highrise jeans which totally bums me out cuz most of the flares i find / see r high rise n i exclusively wear flared jeans LOL ... like i said most of my style is pretty casual i am not usually putting in a ton of effort 2 look put 2gether n cute n whatever literally i just throw on jeans n a shirt i got at a show n call it a day but having jeans tht hv exciting details like this get me thru life fr <3 my favorite pair r my flame flares which u cn kind of see in my avi but some better pics r below. i wore out th first pair of them (below) n had 2 make another one but they r literally like. iconic 4 me im almost never not wearing thm. wearing them rn even !

5. n speaking of things ppl overcharge 4 ... of course. juicy couture anything !!!!!!! ive been on the hunt 4 an (affordable! please god) hot pink juicy tracksuit like the kind paris had in the 2000s just 2 lay around the house in LOL but im also carefully watching out 4 a daydreamer or just any of their cute bags cuz i love purses but i am pretty picky abt my juicy cuz its SO expensive. kinda hv 2 b tho n its worth it 2 b
thts kind of all i can think of. usually when i pop in the thrifts i look 4 shit like belts or necklaces or rings tht i dig but i cant wear rings or jewelry very much anymore cuz im either 1) at school or work (no jewelry policy <\3) 2) at house parties/shows moshing 3) laying in my bed recovering LMFAO. i also love looking 4 cheap cowboy hats cuz i LOVE a cowboy hat n i usually always end up giving it away 2 someone at a party or a gig LOL currently all out of cowboy hats but im gonna get some in january probably . idk. need 2 save my money LOL !!

watching batman ninja and taking notes bc idk how to focus <3 spoilers under the cut
batman ninja is a wild movie already but harleys design fucks
smth smth. everyone got sent to generally the same time/location with variation, time can vary by years (selina was sent 2 years before bruce) but probably not decades and id assume location varies to anywhere within a certain range of whatever island in japan that this is on.
nightwing and red hood were teamed up separately from batman before the blast that sent everyone back by the look of it. cute.
i wanna see ivyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy- DEATHSTROKE IS HERE?
ohh ok. time difference was based off of proximity/order that they were sucked in, making batman the last to show. a few minutes become years, everyone else were def much closer in timing but even a few seconds mightve made weeks difference in how far back they were sent.
lords alluded to so far: joker, penguin, ivy, deathstroke, two-face
mz ivy im in love w u
"once my fortress is complete, itll be my time to strike. yeahhh" OLD MAN. BOOMER. he says yeah like an adult actor playing a teen in an anti-drug ad campaign.
the lord intros are so fun actually
i love selinas little puppet, not a fan of bruces general disposition.
ok bruce looks better with the beard. also alfred what the fuck. how. and lmao. alfred. "lets go on a japan trip we get back."
HARLEYYYYY SHES SO CUTE. is this tara. i think its tara. love her.
classic "stop me or save the civilian trick" smh
congrats to bane on bulking up i guess? anyways. wheres the others. im bored of batman. i do love the little chibi batman who forcibly ejects bruce, someone mustve added a fail safe specifically for bruce being dumb and self destructive.
the lip syncing is off, is this a dub?
DICKIE!! anime hair... and dick's anime bf/leader of the ninjas.
"how do we regain the advantage when we have nothing" bruce. bruce. the whole squad is here + a ninja army. girl.
DAMIAN? oh hes still cute.
monkee :) hes so silly
so tims swords are just for decoration then? weirdo. joker gets his ass beat, whatever. tim states the obvious. backstab fest. im bored again.
"joker!! you'll kill yourself!!" "that's the point, lmao"
35 min in, still no red hood. just establishing shots to explain that each lord has the special time sticks.
"i didnt know who i was after i lost my car" could you be anymore pathetic. he isnt even cute pathetic, hes just "id push him into a puddle" pathetic. stop brooding you boring bitch. oh thank god. he acknowledges that he has other people carrying his ass. red hood still hasn't shown up, not even for bruces go team speech.
ACK. THE CUT IN ART. SO PRETTY. ill probably make another post for screenshots.
red hood time. finally. jason the buddhist monk and his joker hunt sidequest. a part of jasons lashing out at harley is framed in a way that makes it look like a sexual assault imo, so it's giving some mixed emotions. like if this turns out to just be some regular farmers this would be a "stranger breaks in and gropes your wife while threatening you" kinda deal. i mean they went ass shot to jason grabbing her and holding her like. ack. like hes holding her like that so he can break her arm but u gotta trust me it looks Bad. not to just narrate the entire scene but its a lot. jason's pissed and scary, the art is very pretty, im sacred and a little. you know. youve seen me post you know how i am.
this movie kinda. i personally think it wouldve looked better in 2d.
"if you knew him like i did" bruce... also mr j and harley are fully amnesiac so jason the effectively traumatize 2 strangers for no reason. jokerquinn gets a happy ending by becoming farmers. "we'll take them back with us-" NO??? THIS IS LITERALLY THEIR HAPPY ENDING?? THIS IS THEIR BEST/ONLY SHOT AND TRUE REHABILITATION BRUCE. BRINGING THEM BACK WOULD BE PURE STUPIDITY AND/OR SELFISHNESS.
jason saying bruce but bruce saying red hood...
whoops. they still remember, so bruce is just a dumb hoe who thought he and joker had something special.
why are there penguins here. like actual penguins. and why does slade have a gf.
red hood has my fav voice acting of the boys tbh, the others sound a bit clunky. and is ivy also tara. she sounds a bit like tt03 raven.
mech battle. slade is still hot. even if he is a cringe old man. HARVEY BUDDHA BOT?
dami should get to keep his monkey friend. as a treat.
THIS ISNT SKYRIM I DONT THINK HORSES CAN RUN LIKE THAT
ok two face is funny. coin said i gotta beat ur ass now. literal "switching on a dime" behavior
hi welcome back to robot wars. fight scenes are really hit or miss for me, i love em or i fall asleep. smth smth. joker moment. clowns doing the heavy lifting. and where is harley getting her hair dye from, or is that a wig?
fun fact! red spider lilies (the flower growing from jokers gas bomb) symbolize death <3
aaaaand we're back to mech battles. voltron assemble or whatever.
dami almost gets squished trying to save monkey
bruce. bruce are you having an autism event or are you being rude on purpose. anyways give the dues ex macina to dami he deserves it more. baby boy can play the flute so good <3
"momi?" "whos she" a monkey friend tim. obviously.
THE MONKEYS ARE HELPING HIM PLAY IM GONNA LOSE IT. thats so unrealistic but its sooooooooo cute.
m. monkey.
damian is having the time of his life fr
damian is no longer having the time of his life
bats. bat monkey. b. batman? how.
fire no match for batman made of monkeys and bats. anime punch.
Nightwing Vs Penguin, Red Hood Vs Deathstroke, Red Robin Vs Two Face, Robin Vs Poison Ivy
damian that was not a joke. A for effort tho.
ok so the amnesia WAS real but smth smth plant magic.
joker that is not what a joke is. you're worse that damian.
4 barrels, who do you think you are deathstroke. the guy who killed the prime minister of japan? HARLEY? harley. this frame gets its own post she straight up licked her. and thats a lot of bare monkey ass. blah blah they blow up robot. "keep your tongue to yourself" blushing rn
batjokes sword fight, im bored again. joker has a boner. who give a shit. bruce bores me in that special way of his. i am once again reminded about why i can only ever pay attention to him when Dick is involved. if someone else doesnt show up soon my eyes are gonna roll back into my head. joker is not funny enough to make this interesting. hes kinda hot tho. is it just me or are the animators losing steam towards the end of this. im. im bored. oh i missed the fans, those were cool, its nice to see them one last time. blah blah kill joker- wait a minu- ok nvm. coward. batjokes should die together an share a grave. in main canon even.
gonna cry over monkichi brb. at least he has monmi. his sister? gf? both?
ok so by the credits i assume this movie was originally in japanese. anyways. after credits. bruce does wayne stuff, selina does catwoman things. pfft. old style batcart dents a strangers car.
harley and ivy were tara strong ofc, and apparently jason and dami shared a VA, i didnt even notice that. so did dick and alfred. and grodd and deathstroke. a lot of double casting.

Okay, so "Freedom" protestors (who are protesting covid restrictions) have shut down Canberra's Lifeline Book Fair. It's a second hand book sale, most books between $1 and about $5.
The protestors have completely taken over the car park and are harrassing people who are wearing masks.
For the safety of the general public, the fair has been shut down.
The book fair is Lifeline's main source of donations, and without it, the already strained mental health call-service becomes strained even further. They have worked so hard throughout the pandemic to help will depression, anxiety and other mental health issues. Without the Book Fair, they're going to struggle to meet the needs of thousands struggling with their mental health.
Please, if you have anything to spare. Even if it's just a dollar, please donate to Canberra Lifeline Service. This is a service we can't afford to lose. It could mean all the difference, could save someone's life.

My #1 post of 2022
Bestie your addition to the Batfam/Harley makes me FROTH at the mouth; I actually checked and her names actually LUCY QUINZEL I DIE,,, SHES SO ADORABLE,,,
Tumblr media
And she's just fucking Normal which is so fucking funny- it breaks me that Harley couldn't be in her life but when she STARTS,,, OH MANNNN,,, convinced Damian and her would be besties with " someone will die" " of FUN" vibes with Jon too!!!! Im. Dying. I'd love to hear your thoughts if you have any sjsjsjsjs
Omg, Lucy and Brucie, so cute they rhyme 💖💖💖 yes, and then Bruce and Harley will get all emotional over the Lucy/Damien/Jon trio, cos like, it'll be like when they were kids with Harvey! And then like, having family dinners, and Lucy calling Alfred grandpa, because Harley unironically calls Alfred "dad". I'm crying. THEY'RE A FAMILY! And like, Harley making fun of Bruce for dropping out of med school, when she went all the way to get a PH.D and them being super proud when one of the new trio goes to med school. I have a lot of feelings.
Oh and the shenanigans these children will get into, with like big brother Dick and/or Jason, definitely Tim, joining in or enabling. And Bruce and Harley can't even be mad, cos they lowkey/highkey thought it was hilarious, or did worse things when they were the same age together.
Like I'm insane about Cass having big sister bonding time with little sister Lucy, like taking this little girl under her (bat) wing and just uuuggghhh. Teaching Lucy sign language and how to read body language, especially if Lucy wants to become a psychiatrist like her mum to help give patients the best care, or become a vigilante like her. I'm such a slut for found family, you have no idea

If you’re still doing the character ask game, Cassie Cage please? Side note, I miss Ashly Burch. Love your blog, by the way.
aw thanks, I'll do it since you asked nicely lol
First impression: Wasn't really sure what to think of Johnny and Sonya having a kid together since I wasn't a fan of how they were written in MK9, but I definitely thought she looked cool so I was excited to learn more (and MKX definitely sold me on Cageblade anyway so yeah lol). I LOVED Cassie in MKX, she actually became my favorite character for a while full stop
Impression now: I miss her old look and her old voice, but she's still pretty cute and fun. I definitely still like her a lot, but she did lose something for me. Honestly, I think I'm mostly disappointed that she's not actually the main hero anymore, I really liked that she was in MKX
Favorite moment: When she beat the shit out of Shinnok :3 die mad about it
Idea for a story: I would really have liked to see her and Frost have to team up. I always really wanted Frost to join the Kombat Kids at some point, I think that would have been fun. Also Cassie and Frost should date
Unpopular opinion: Idk how unpopular it is but I never really see people talk about it. I actually really liked her and Sonya's story in MK11. I honestly think it's the best thing to come out of MK11's story (aside from Kitana beating Shao but then Aftermath ruined that)
Favorite relationship: Cassie has so many good ones! Her relationship with her parents is really engaging and her relationship with the Kombat Kids and Raiden is really nice too like. how do I choose
Favorite headcanon: Based on her Harley Quinn skin and her ninja skins in MKX, I like to think she's a huge fan of cosplay and puts a lot of work into them

How to Get a Bike Rental in Delhi and Plan for Valentine's?
Valentine's Day is quickly approaching, and I'm sure many of you are looking for fun and unusual date ideas to surprise your significant other. As someone who has lived in Delhi for many years, I highly recommend getting a bike on rent in Delhi and taking a romantic ride around the city. Not only is it an affordable and easy option, but cruising around Delhi's iconic sites on a bike just feels extra romantic. 
Tumblr media
In this post, I'll share my tips on the best places to get a bike on rent in Delhi, how to plan your Valentine's Day bike route, and some fun ideas to make your bike date extra special. Let's get started. 
Where to Rent a Bike in Delhi
Delhi has exploded with options for bike rental in Delhi in recent years. You can rent bikes by the hour or day from local shops and mainstream companies. My top recommendation is:
Don't overlook Rentnhop for bike rental in Delhi! This relatively new company is quickly becoming one of the top options for affordable and convenient bike rentals.
Rentnhop has an easy-to-use website and app where you can view available bikes, compare prices, and book your rental. They offer a wide variety of gear and non-gear bikes delivered right to your doorstep, so no need to travel to a bike shop. Their bikes are high quality too - think premium brands like Triumph, Harley Davidson, etc.
No matter which rental company or shop you choose, I recommend booking at least 2-3 days in advance for Valentine's Day. The bikes book up fast! Most shops have options for gear and non-gear bikes ranging from ₹100-500 per day.
Planning Your Bike Route
The best part about getting a bike rental in Delhi for Valentine's Day is cruising around to all the romantic hotspots! Here is a suggested route that hits some of my personal favorite spots:
Start at India Gate - Roll up to India Gate and Rajpath to soak in the iconic scenery. Don't forget to take a romantic selfie in front of the arch. 
Cruise through Lodi Gardens - Make your way to Lodi Gardens to ride down the lush garden paths and admire the Mughal architecture. Stop on the bridge for beautiful lake views.
Ride by Humayun's Tomb - This incredible tomb oozes history and romance. Park the bike and take a quiet stroll through the manicured gardens.
Ride through Hauz Khas Village - Time to get your energy back up! Make a stop in Hauz Khas Village for lunch or coffee at one of the chic cafes.
Watch the Sunset at Safdarjung Tomb - End your bike date by catching the sunset at Safdarjung Tomb. This lesser-known tomb has amazing sunset views.
Of course, you can customize the route however you like. I highly recommend using bike lanes and avoiding busy roads when possible. Also, don't forget to stop for food, drinks, and photos along the way.
Tips for an Extra Special Bike Date
To take your Delhi bike date to the next level, here are some fun tips:
Decorate your bikes with ribbons, flowers, or heart garlands when you pick them up.
Pack a romantic picnic with finger foods, champagne, and chocolate-covered strawberries to enjoy at a stop along your route.
Pick up a Polaroid camera and snap cute candid photos all day to gift your date a photo album at the end.
Plan your route to pass by places significant to your relationship, like your first date spot.
Make a romantic Valentine's Day playlist to listen to during your ride. Bluetooth speakers attached to bikes are a fun touch.
Dress up in coordinating outfits or colors. Maybe even get a couple of T-shirts made for the occasion.
End the night with dinner at a rooftop restaurant overlooking the city. Delhi has amazing options.
Getting a bike on rent in Delhi and cruising around Delhi on Valentine's Day is sure to be a memorable experience. You get to act like carefree kids again while also enjoying romantic views and quality time with your loved one. Just don't forget to ride safely and watch for traffic.
Conclusion
I hope these tips help you plan an amazing bike date in Delhi. Let me know if you have any other questions. Wishing you all a very Happy Valentine's Day. Ride safe and make special memories.

Maybe i should do another Rentry post for these but just in case.
1:
Honestly, if Crowbcat wanted to be even more /v/, he could've not bothered with those videos about Halo (Which even Martin O'Donnell liked) and instead gone full "Babby's first FPS that ruined the genre".
He even made a positive video about Doom 2016, for a guy that is essentially "/v/ outside of /v/".
Like he could've technically been worse, since /v/ even had threads shitting on RE4.
2:
Love Death and Robots seems at first to be a spiritual successor to Heavy Metal in terms of being a showcase of different sci-fi stories.
The problem is that Heavy Metal had a particular appeal that isn't really present in LDR, mostly the "nerd into 80/90's heavy metal/sci-fi" stuff while LDR has typical modern elements.
But this might also be partially why the Heavy Metal comics brand is dead, because they dropped that appeal/focus years ago.
If people look at the 2 animated movies or those illustrations by Simon Bisley, they'll get disappointed knowing HM stopped showing tits at some point.
Though someone i follow that is a bigger comics expert points out that Heavy Metal was more about the art while 2000AD was more about the stories and also had better variety so it wasn't just "cool characters nerds like".
3:
The thing with Lois Lane in the new Superman cartoon is that she looks like a generic tomboy but to some people, she was just a white office lady.
I guess it's like how Marian from Double Dragons wans't really a visually iconic looking character, so nobody cares that River City Girls turned her into Dorohedoro Noi.
But it also might be a difference from Harley Quinn where if these characters like superheroes or villains have interesting designs, then the likes of Batman's butler Alfred or Spiderman's Aunt May exist to look normal and not have actual designs.
So to some it isn't a loss because she never had a "design" as they think.
4:
SiivaGunner was a fun gimmick at first but i think what made the channel kinda boring is how many memes they started to incorporate and even make it part of a "lore".
Like Grandad and Snow Halation are "part of it" but then there's all these various attempts at referencing specific e-celebs and memes.
It's specifically lame when they reference Keemstar or Logan/Jake Paul like those are human beings worth liking.
Also makes the "wholesome" aesthetic weird.
"Awww look at Kirby and Frisk from Undertale, videogames are so cute... anyway, here's the shittiest memes you've already been tired of seeing on Youtube mixed along".
People already give Triple Q some shit for being irony poisoned or meme centered, even if he hasn't reached the level of Grandayy.
Probably the same deal with Tumblr people going "NO MORE IRONY, I WANT SINCERITY" but still showing hints of the meme/irony culture they grew around, when they could either develop real life experiences or interact with actual good media.
5:
Maybe a problem with nerd portrayals in pop culture is that the idea of them being outcast and all is there but Star Wars was always popular, so pop culture was "partially correct".
Like replace Star Wars and Star Trek with Heavy Metal comics or something less talked about and all those caricatures in tv shows could've been more accurate.
6:
When it comes to fiction copying/taking stuff from its own fields, comedy is probably the worst case of this because you'll realize certain caricatures or "types" come from someone's observations and then later comedies take it and it becomes autopilot in a way.
Maybe it's the case with media leading to stereotypes or biased views on real people but moreso something that makes characters feel less sincere.
I dunno, making another generic fantasy setting with orcs and dragons is less evil in comparison to a sitcom copying the same character traits.

Seeing people go "you're not a real fighting game fan unless you're part of the FGC" is funny because it's obviously a response to people mad at the censorship in Skullgirls.
But also because it's a way to make any game less beloved than it is because of how exploitable it is.
"You're not a real Mario fan unless you're a SM64 speedrunner".
When Doom Eternal came out, even guys with "hot takes about JRPG's" and those that mock Redditors talked about the Isabelle crossovers and did basic Doom memes.
Most of them might as well be fake fans because they're not too invested in wads and browse Doomworld.
See how that sounds?

I think i already said in Rentry posts that Sseth became either safe or too reliant on current memes.
Emptyhero however still makes risky jokes and is still funny.
If i finish my game, i wouldn't care if he shat on it as long as he made a review of it funny.

If you think about it, Zoomers grew up with Smosh and ERBOH, so they watch breadtubers and essay video makers to overcompensate.
It's the closest they get to "intellectualism" to make it up for watching shit that other online groups would put it beneath 9gag.

I wonder if there's a correlation between people complaining about "edgy animation" (As in, when Spongebob has better animation/is animated by actual animators than SU) and people that hate AAA games with "photorealistic" graphics.
Because there is an arguement for "corporate" art styles still requiring effort but then they'd realize that applies more to 3D "CalArts" animation that even the Mario movie has than Spongebob.
Even with videogames, developers "scaling down graphics" won't just be the end of Naughty Dog but even fantasy or sci-fi designs people like.
Not even "343 overdesigned sci-fi" or "DarkSiders copycat autopilot fantasy" but there's character designs people won't admit have a lot of detail.
Unless that "i want shorter games with worse graphics" image is less about scale and more about quality as in "the Metal Slug series is soulless because it having good pixel art means it took slavework while my shitty indie game is REAL SOUL because the art style being bad is a good thing".
Maybe it's a clique thing where people just advertise the "right kind" of games.
And again, corporations LOVE stiff animation and hate effort taking animation from passionate animators.

I think the reason why people have some interest in people taking shit seriously is because of what comes next: When they "betray" that investment.
Like Zoomers still taking screenshots of art they deem illegal/immoral to mock someone or taking "Proshippers DNI" off profiles to not get blocked by artists.
Or people treating "groomer" as a slur when they could easily use it against the other side when they find their actual examples of groomers.
Something where the issue is not "taking shit seriously" but more "doing a terrible job at it", because when you take something like culture wars or fandom shit seriously, your brain might as well have some connection like your life somehow depends on it.
You can see this with germophobes who wash their hands too many times, then they make food for someone and don't wash their hands: Are they outgrowing their habits? Or are they revealing they only care for their safety, even if the food isn't contaminated by a real threat?
Maybe it's a sign of people only acting a certain way to fit in a group.
Because it can also come off as a sign of a weak character if you fuck up even something you're supposed to base yourself around.

The idea of a Barbie moving having politics is funny because the "outside" of Barbie has all these feminists thinking girls are forced to play with it or that the character is a terrible representation of women.
In a way, politics in media could be about the "outside" and not what's coming from the setting or story.
Same deal with Doom: Why bring up the UAC argent energy plot when you have John Carmack making the games moddable out of a "hacker respector" way and Romero getting the sack by ZeniMax when wanting to share some assets related to the games?
13:
The occasional overlaps between SA and Tumblr are funny because they seem opposite at first until you realize their opposites explain the overlaps.
One thing is troll's remorse, another is nerds that were always easy to mock still trying to be the bullies.
Knowing the history behind Dril and even Homestuck can reveal some lore between a site where nerds wasted money on a forum while telling other nerds to die and another that acted as a hugbox for freaks to feel "heckin valid".
14:
I think a reason why OG Lara Craft is more liked than the boring new Lara is because she's clearly a comic book/action figure type character and the other is a generic "realistic" character that might as well be an NPC.
Part of why you can't put Solid Snake/Big Boss in the same field as actual generic "white guy protagonists" because of stuff related to their designs, backgrounds, personalities, gameplay etc.
Also explains why some Resident Evil fans (Even if a small minority) aren't much into the remakes or 7/8.
And a problem with both Doom movies and the cancelled Doom 4 having generic SWAT soldiers when Doom always had a particular "sci-fi security guard" aesthetic while the new games have the Sentinel stuff.

The reason to make fun of shit like boomers complaining about woke stuff is if they do it in a situation where it's not the case or they exaggerate something, but you can tell some people mock these even in situations where it's not unreasonable.
Otherwise, the people mocking these boomers would still mock shit like ResetEra freaking out over cute girls in a JRPG.
Like you see people claim Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon album art is "appropriating LGBT culture" because of the rainbow and instead, it's the boomers talking about that group of people that get to be mocked.
Being stupid isn't exclusive to one side.
It's why people think it's more convinient to be left wing and then get surprised when there's grifters or shit like that.

A lot of "media literacy" boils down to adding modern politics to a movie that otherwise had a very different message.
Meanwhile, Fritz the Cat had political themes that could apply to modern times but "media literacy" types and animation fans ignore it because it's not coming from their desired background/area.

One of the worst images i saw was a Soyjak making fun of people that prefer to ignore Twitter.
Years of guys on /v/ being told to "go to Twitter" everytime they complain about censorship and now when some anons say "stop posting Twitter screencaps on /v/", they're told "um you should care what Twitter people say".
The mere fact that Twittier is essentially "the center of the web" is a bad thing and destroying the site would be one of the few good things Elon Musk ever did in his life.
