#i will hear none of it

[huffy-the-bicycle-slayer]

Growing up, did anyone else think that the phrase "heard it through the grapevine" was refering to a litteral grape vine?

I always imaged two people picking grapes and talking shit about a third person that was blocked from view by grapevines

#the song “heard it through the grapevine” is juat very visually evocative #and i hears it many many time growing up #it may suprise none of you that autism is involved

seeing a lot of talk of the season 5 finale, which is fun, i get that it was controversial (honestly the fact it was really risky is kind of one of the things i like about it lol) and wanting to add my two cents but can't think of much i haven't already said before

but something i do want to emphasize is that season 5 ending on Marinette telling the biggest, boldest faced lie she's ever told (that goes far beyond "protecting her identity") to kick off the Lila arc is by far the coolest thing they could've done imo, because I was not at all excited for the Lila arc before but now I'm totally invested. Now Lila isn't the Evil Liar to be taken down by Good Marinette. Marinette is the liar to be taken down by the very liar that she took down. It's not a story of "defeat that freakishly evil girl" anymore, but instead a story of "Marinette's own actions and decisions coming back to bite her". And the lie itself (WHICH LILA KNOWS IS A LIE!!) only exists because, and is most impactful towards, her relationship with Adrien, which is the core of the series!! I CARE about their relationship, and that's the stakes!!!

I just cannot get over how cool that is, and how much I didn't expect it. I know we all were expecting a big fight with Ladybug and Chat Noir just defeating Gabriel and then watching Chat Noir cry or whatever in the few remaining minutes of screen-time and then it's all over and done with, but that's a series finale. This was a season finale. And they did something really unique and unexpected with it, while making sure it's a juicy season-finale conflict that leaves me actually excited about season 6

also, a side note— I think the framing of the finale made this confusing so I totally get why discussions about it are kind of all over the place, but... 90% of the post-wish stuff we saw had nothing to do with Gabriel at all. It was all Mayor Bustier, who was already running for mayor and wanted to enact green laws and projected to win (she was up against D'Argencourt, the character whose schtick is that nobody ever votes for him in elections). I don't think Gabriel's wish included "Please, Gimmi, I want my son's school teacher to win the mayoral election this year" lol. So a lot of talk of "why is Gabriel's World presented in such a positive light?" is kind of weird to me. That's not Gabriel's World. That's Caline Bustier's. All we know so far about Gabriel's World is that Nathalie is in it and he is not. And frankly, the fact everyone is so happy and cheerful and living it up after his death is more a roast than anything

( also, just a reminder that the presentation of Gabriel's statue— the only scene discussing Gabriel in a positive light by someone In The Know— was done by Tomoe Tsurugi, a series antagonist, vowing to continue his work, with a song in minor key playing in the background. i feel like the question of "was this meant to be unsettling or triumphant?" is pretty obvious. just wanted to remind everyone. also by definition characters cannot celebrate gabriel as a "hero" without in the same breath celebrating monarch's, aka gabriel's, death. yknow? )

As requested, the list of archaeology nemeses which i poses: (in no particular order other than #5 bc tumblrs formatting hates me right now, and i cant be bothered to fix it)

Whoever convinced the general public that archaeologists and paleontologists are the same thing (not the public themselves, i can be nice to them, but whoever started it.............. i just want to talk)

Trying to excavate in dry soil with high sand content and having sediment patches just... leak out in random spots from the pit walls

Cant Function A Mattock To Save My Life

Sieving wet clay is like sieving porridge and its TERRIBLE and HORRIBLE and DISGUSTING and makes HORRENDUS SOUNDS

As discussed, Munsell chart and my complete and utter inability to read colours correctly

Any varient of the "The archaeologists didnt figure this out it was some Normal Person Who Knows Crafts And Life Skills" my Dear Personal Friend i hate to rain on your anti-academia parade, but archaeologists ARE people (although jury's still out on normal for some of them...)

#i hope these are sufficient for six of my archaeology nemeses #i will hear criticism #but i will take none of it #archaeology #archaeologist problems #theres a mouse loose in a hospital

Big Mama must have lost some serious standing in the yokai underworld because it’s gotten apparent that she keeps being beaten by a small group of teenagers and the occasional rat man, and when it’s not them then she’s taking L’s from her own schemes working against her.

And in the ensuing power vacuum, the Hamatos accidentally become the most feared crime family known to all the big bads of the Hidden City.

After all, they’ve publicly outplayed Big Mama multiple times, a couple of them have taken out the heads of two of the most well known criminal organizations, one took out Heinous Green, two are responsible for the destruction of Witch Town, they have ties to both the infamous Baron Draxum and Captain Piel, they won the Doom Dome death race, they’re Battle Nexus Champions, they’ve displayed insane feats of power and defeated impossibly strong enemies, most of them have been to jail, and they regularly mingle with humans.

You can just imagine the notoriety they’d accumulate from word of mouth alone.

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt headcanons #rise of the tmnt #I didn’t even list everything the Hamatos are MENACES #it’s so funny #bonus if none of the Hamatos realize how terrifying their presence in the Hidden City has become #every time Leo goes to bother Hueso the guy just has his head in his hands like Pepino…I JUST got my brother out of crime…and now you???’ #Leo’s just like ‘lmao what crime’ #meanwhile a trail of destruction follows them wherever they go #just look at the library smh #the small time yokai villains hearing about how scary the fam is and having two different reactions #one being no way are we talking about the same babies tripping over themselves and barely beating anyone #the other is oh god I barely escaped with my LIFE huh #sunita listening to all the worry her parents have about this new ‘Hamato Family’ and laughing inside #she tells April and April keeps it a secret to see how long it takes the others to realize it #when accused of crime Donnie accidentally and largely unprompted starts denying his digital asset thefts and then has to deny he denied it #when he learns of what is thought of them Raph has a crisis the poor boy #Mikey’s happy they’re ‘known for being a family!:)’ #he - kinda terrifyingly - kinda likes the thought of that lol #Leo: 🤔 think I could go back to that hair spa then? (no) #in their defense while they are MENACES society is ALSO a menace to THEM

This is the funniest way of depicting Speedster Speedster Sense™ ever

(Speedster Speedster Sense™: a Speedster's innate ability to track and locate other Speedsters, especially when the tracked Speedster is using their powers)

They're like bloodhounds after a squirrel lmao

Normally, this kinda thing is depicted as a speedster just kinda knowing where someone is (see, below)

Like these panels where Barry just knows where Max and Wally are. There are tons and tons of instances of Speedsters vaguely feeling another Speedster nearby or, like Barry, just knowing their exact coordinates but seeing an energy trail? That's fun. I like that so much better.

It isn't the first time we've seen something like this. Wally tracked down a time manipulator for Dick one time exactly like Ace and Avery. But it's just so fun. I'm glad to see it back.

#i love how they both immediately stopped their conversation and were after the trail without a second thought #i love them both so much holy shit #dc #dc comics #the flash #kid flash #wally west #ace west #avery ho #Mas y Menos: *casually jogging by* #Mas y Menos: ...Do you hear boss music? #no but seriously #it would've been so funny if the twins weren't hypnotized cause legit Ace and Avery had NO REASON to chase them down like that #absolutely none #territorial little gremlins #god i love them

Different Italian anon, but the thing with Tuscan C is that it's pronounced like a very strong H sound, which is extra weird cuz the letter H makes no sound in Italian, normally. It sounds the way Spanish pronounce the J. We say it's "aspirato". So then people from there will say things like Hoha Hola (coca cola), and it's funny. It's also extremely contagious, I got family in Florence, you spend 3 days with them you start doing it too before you even realize.

.

#that sounds really endearing actually #answered #anonymous #this is entirely beside the point but I still feel sort of bamboozled by languages that have silent letters #or when letters have multiple pronunciations that vary wildly from word to word #and when the sound and the letter don't seem to match like how J sounds very close to H in Spanish like you mentioned #I'm generalizing a little but none of these are really a thing in Finnish #in Finnish words are pretty much always pronounced the way they are written if that makes sense #I don't know the language terminology but I think phonetic spelling is what you call it #each letter represents a specific sound and you string those together #when you hear a word you can always tell how it's written and when you read a word you know how to pronounce it #even if you're encountering the word for the first time and have no idea what it means #it's comparatively direct and predictable there's practically no need for guessing or memorizing #also the stress is always on the first syllabe and it's so subtle it might as well not be there at all #which sometimes makes spoken Finnish and Finnish accent sound kind of monotonous there isn't a lot of intonation #I was extremely confused by the concept of spelling bees as a kid #anyway long tag ramble but this stuff is just interesting to me

Something that baffles and frustrates me is that Usopp upgraded Nami’s Clima-Tact multiple times but the only attack she consistently uses is some version of the Thunderbolt Tempo (with a few Mirage and Tornado Tempos thrown in the mix).

Where’s her combo with Brook where they trap enemies in an ice storm? When is she gonna knock people out with car-sized hail? When is she going to make people’s skin sizzle with acid rain????? There are so many weather phenomena that exist that it feels like such a waste to limit her to the same few attacks.

I don’t care if I’m being impatient, the other Straw Hats get a wide range of attacks so it makes no sense for Nami, weather girl and navigator supreme, to be so limited in her combat abilities.

#nami #cat burglar nami #op nami #one piece #op meta #if i have to hear her yell ‘thunderbolt tempo’ one more time i’m gonna lose it #i want her to fight crocodile again and manipulate his sand and create a sand storm #there are so many things she can do and oda makes her do none of them i’m gonna throw up i hate him

Watching Tubbo's and Fit's streams and I can't wait for Bagi to return and hear everything that Empanada's been up to:

- broke their rest agreement on Friday to do lore

- got shot at by evil!Forever/Never and forced to do child labour

- had a sleepover with Sunny and Tubbo in their 3x3 bunker after the traumatic day

- celebrated Tubbo's birthday with Sunny, Fit, Ramon and briefly Tallulah and gave him a drawing

- got given bombs by domestic terrorist Santa and then proceeded to shoot Sunny so she could get hungry

- watched Tubbo build an avocado farming machine

- made a tea party with Sunny outside the factory

She's so adorable, literally watched Tubbo's stream today purely to see if Em woke up. She's already gone to bed but she is sick so expected she wants to go rest.

Edit: I forgot the new cat she got as a present from Ramon I want to know what she named it. Also she returned and they're all laying on the train tracks waiting to be hit... babysitter Tubbo is a vibe. A very different vibe to babysitter bad I think.

#this is why she doesnt take days off #she leaves for 4 days for christmas and comes back to hear about the chaos #i assume she'll stream it and it will be the highlight of my holiday #empanada having a fun time #im glad shes found someone to hang out with when none of her mamas are on #and shes been wanting to hang out with sunny more #im happy shes comfortable enough to log on and hang out like richas does #qsmp #qsmp bagi

In my language, “PK” is a curse word. So to me, Saiki and his friends all go to ‘Fuck You Academy’.

#In Cantonese it means ‘Fall in the streets and die’ more or less #It doesn’t sound as vulgar when literally translated tbh. #But it’s a real bad curse phrase. Hella common. You’d hear it all the time. #Tbh I don’t really swear in Cantonese. English on the other hand? #Here are some more interpretative translations (based on vibes mainly) for your consideration #‘Eat shit Academy’ #‘Drop Dead Academy’ #‘Why won’t you just die Academy’ #‘Damn you to hell Academy’ #‘Crime against humanity Academy’ #‘Everyone wishes you were dead Academy’ #Don’t quote me on how accurate any of these are. Because none of them are accurate. #But this is so flipping fun to do haha #saiki k #languages
