My Country: The New Age, first and last episodes & Hanif Abdurraqib, For The Dogs Who Barked At Me On The Sidewalks in Connecticut (text/audio) image descriptions in alt

#damn imagine if hui-jae was well written beyond like episode 7 or so. wouldnt that have been something. #just saying but if they had actually leaned into the parallels between these three instead of doing ... whatever weird comphet stuff we got #it couldve been so good!!!! or even if they had just let her keep her fun gender!! but no :( #im so glad hui-jae is busy being the occasional third in hwa-wol and mun-boks marriage while seonhwi raise goats in seo geoms village haha #anyway. enjoy yet another half assed post abt parallels and heartbreak in the parallels and heartbreak show <3 #also do urself a favour and check out the whole poem hanif abdurraqibs writing is insane #my country: the new age #mctna #han hui-jae #nam seon-ho #seo hwi #caveweb #actually no i still have sth to say. like im not even mad that theres comphet im just angry its so bad like??? what was that #that wasnt even half assed that was like quarter assed at best #also the hui-jae / seon-ho axis is so tragically underused #like i respect that they just fully made them both hwisexual but couldnt we have at least gotten more than some crumbs #they went from vaguely friends to bitchy antagonists to i dont even think of u at all and thats honestly so lame #tension of a wet lettuce leaf. seon-ho was the one who made the first step towards friendship in ihwaru and he also warned her abt his dad #and wingmanned hwi (took hui-jae to see hwi kick ass) like in the beginning he was the one w the people skills! #and u are telling me apart from one extremely unbelievable attempt at a love triangle w the 'last drink' scene u never did anything w them? #like so much of my grief w this show hinges on the fact that there shouldve been more Good Times before everything went to shit #to make it hit harder bc imagine the beef if seon-ho and hui-jae had been actually good friends before he betrayed hwi #them seeing each other at court as the king and queens respective confidantes wouldve been so much better like !!! #wait actually i need to stop here i can feel myself getting hangry i need to eat lunch but imagine. imagine #the good timeline where hwi just got to be fully bisexual and there were more divorce flavours than just hwi/seon-ho and hwi/bang-won... #solarpunk_future.jpeg #nam seon ho #han hui jae #<- thats just bc i never fucking know what the consensus on the romanization of everyones names is #i personally go w the hyphenated method but lots of ppl write each syllable separate and ive seen the kpop variant (written tgt) used too

I HAVE HALFWAY WROTE A DEFEAT LETTER BUT I HAVE MANAGED TO FINALLY BEAT M19 SOS VERGIL Y E S FINALLY I WILL FREAKIN CRY TEARS OF JOY HERE

#I DID IT I DID IT I DID JT #i ran around like a freakin headless chicken in the end and IT PAYED OFF #oh freakin hell #ahaha now only to repeat this with nero who i haven't touched in about a year now ahahahaha #...st least he has better options for dealing with the clone #game even awarded me with s though there was nowhere near s gameplay to be found #i am a bit overwhelmed now #i am now fully realising Exactly How Far Away from a 'hardcore' gamer i am #can you believe i started the year thinking 'if i go slow and casual at it i think i could take on harder dmc5 difficulties' #i feel ready to go back in time and theottle that idiot #this was...not fun but it also kind of was only because dmc5 gameplay is so good and dante is amazing to play as #and vergil is a great opponent he makes you take the situation seriously but you also learn to start goofing off its great #however i am NOT built for this i am so freakin not built for this boss grind i came through only because i like dmc so much #and i felt like if i could spend even a fraction of my fandom time in the actual game i could be much better at it #there is a number of games I overplayed to the point of starting to hate them and where the frustration overwrote the initial joy i felt #i felt like ive given myself enough time because i started to feel that frustration about dmc5 and i decidedly do NOT want that game #to end up like those i love it and want to enjoy it further so i was ready to concede defeat today #turns out i just had to be a better chicken thats good as nero is next and he is an arguably better for chicken tactic #maybe ill finish this sos run after all i would be glad if i could manage that #also im this close to 3 million and i want the dance taunt at least for dante))) #phew what an evening #mutuals my beloved thank you for constantly cheering me and reading this i can't find the words to express how much i cherish your support #and thank you tumblr for allowing me an entire book in the tags section hellsite my beloved

BTW if you haven't already please take a minute to look up what venomous snakes are local to you and familiarize yourself with them

#i joined a local snake ID group recently #before that i knew roughly how to spot a pit viper and hownto tell a coral from a scarlet snake #but i didnt really know how to identify specific species other than copperheads #and now im very confident in my ability to tell water snakes from cottonmouths etc #and it gives really nice peace of mind #like. ive seen so many people here in the us south that will freak out of Any snake #my mom once was yelling and crying trying to get help over a kingsnake on the sidewalk cuz she didnt know if it could kill the dogs #and people will kill snakes if they dont know [and often will anyway but knowing helps foster appreciation] #and now i can see a snake and say thats a coachwhip. isnt it pretty. and will gently grab the back end to look at it for just a second more #before letting it go hide #idk. i saw a rattlesnake in the woods today #and its the first time seeing one in the wild like that. and yea it was scary tbh #and i got a pic but booked it out once it noticed me and reacted #but i wish i had stopped and watched it longer cuz it was super pretty #and i know it wouldnt have bothered me at all #im just glad that we've seen two big full sized diamondbacks here in the past few months. and i know theyre two individuals #because eastern diamondbacks are declining and its good to know theres a population here #idk. im getting sentimental over snakes i just love them #but my main point is its so easy to indentify snakes at least where im at #and learning to id them comes with learning to respect them

i need to stop staying up so late when i need to work the next day augggg

#the bin #i work at 11am at least so i do still have awhile till i need to get up #usually i work 4 hours earlier so im lucky i guess. not exactly tho bc i much prefer morning shifts but whatevs #i texted my sister today to ask if she can come this weekend but she didnt respond. hhh. im gonna be so mad if she says no #i just realized im abt to be out of cat food too so she HAS to comw at some point soon #it doenst even have to be the weekend. thats just the days she has off but if she can stop by anotehr time then thats fine #or if just her boyfriend can come drop stuff off and pickup her card then thats fine. but idk. i even offered to lend her gas money if my #next paycheck is enough to allow that. i shoudo get it tomorrow or the day afeyr so. well. hhhh. #i hope my paycheck isnt too bad. i think tips were pretty good recently so. maybe it wond be so bad. hhhh. #im tired of being stressed abt this stuff all the time. im really pissed at my sister rn too bc she just bought $40 worth of unnecessary #stuff. like. decor. while she still owes me $300 which i only lent bc it was for rent and i knew i wouldnt need it back for almost a month #but its been that time now and i need it back and instead of sensing it back she buys a $20 wall tapestry apparently #hhh. last yime i ever ever ever lend her money. im only gonna lend gas money bc i need her here soon. but she also needs to amde the trip #bc she has a card here to pickup. and theres several other reasons shes supposed to stop by. it shouldnt have to be my responsibility to #pay for that trip. hhhh. #im so glad i wont have to deal with her in a month

side note i hope i havent put anyone off of watching magireco. i know i can get really into bitching about things i dont like but i am very pro “watch it for yourself and dont just take my word for it that its gonna be bad”

#idk if this sounds self centered but i sometimes note ppl kinda ‘’follow my lead’’ on some things? on my wc blog at least #and like thats flattering and all but pls dont take my word at face value!! just bc i didnt like it doesnt mean you wont! #its not the end of the world if yall disagree with me on something like this #if you think this anime is amazing then good for you and im glad it works for you!! im glad it makes you happy #echoed voice #esp bc i took a long break between seasons 1 and 2 so there could easily have been something i was missing

i am, really just fucking hoping theres gonna be more safety regulations around this kind of stuff now. and that the greek coast guard gets fucking sued. also that the submersible company gets sued. and nothing like any of these things happens ever again

#ik thats not gonna be the case but god this whole situation has not been good for my irrational-ish fear #of being told something is safe and then it turns out it really really isnt but its too late and horrible death happens #i feel no sympathy for the billionaires obvs but. can we acknowledge how fucking lucky it is that the horrble submersible #only ended up killing 5 ppl. thats still 5 ppl but it couldve been way more #like idc if a billionaire wants to die horribly they should not be allowed to drag other people down w them #they should not be allowed to have their METAL TUBE DEATH TRAP talked about POSITIVELY on a fucking SCIENCE WEBSITE THAT SHOULD KNOW BETTER #AND THEY DEFINITELY SHOULDNT BE ALLOWED TO USE IT TO TURN A GRAVESITE INTO THE WORLDS LEAST SAFE TOURIST TRAP #EVEN IF ONLY STUPID RICH PPL WILL GET ON IT #like you realize this is just the most extreme example of the kind of lack of regulation these guys get away with. like im glad the guy tha #made the thing met his horrible end with it but too many ppl don't get graced with this kind of dramatic irony #and besides maybe it should not be fucking legal to construct literal death machines even for dramatic irony #idk im tired of focusing on whether the guys had it coming for them or not its endless hell discourse #lets fucking talk abt how this whole thing should not have fucking happened in the first place #and i hope nothing like it ever happens again #if the billionaires want a horrible death i will give it to them myself and then outlaw their entire fucking existence (as billionaires) #im sorry im just fucking tired #roseflower.txt

AAAAA #Im gonna draw QSMP Rubius chilling in a lei and Hawaiian shirt now #or at least thats how I'm imagining him #everyone: oh.... qsmp rubius must be getting punished by the gods because he was associating with Vegetta #even though he's not to have romantic relationships with mortals #qsmp Rubius: *chilling on the beach somewhere* #mcyt talk #for lack of a better tag #though this is the FURTHEST thing from mcyt

Wait do you not see weight loss ads everywhere where you live?????

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i dont think i EVER see weight loss ads honestly. of course fatphobia is still very real and rampant here as much as anywhere else but i think weight loss things are like. kinda hush hush, if that makes sense. you never OUTRIGHT say your product is for weight loss, or that you should get plastic surgery if youre fat, or whatever. but its like. “heres our protein bar if you wanna be Healthy AND environmentally friendly (important to say) this fucking like bar of nuts and dried fruit contains ALL the nutrients of a full meal, so you dont even have to eat anything else 🥰🌈💗✨” so they never outright say “heres some horrible and both physically and mentally damaging things you can buy to stop being fat” even if thats essentially what they mean. :(

#seeing an ad that was upfront about it was. fucking jarring tbh #here they all have like. an air of pretending like they care about health most of all. so its mostly ads for like workout apps and diet stuf #actually i think it might actually genuinely BE illegal to advertise anything else here. like ive never in my life seen an ad for like #plastic surgery. or something. i think it might be illegal but i dont actually know #if it is then thats good at least. if its not then im glad there doesnt seem to be a market for it? in a way that requires advertisement #but either way. its messed up #its like how all makeup ads nowadays (here at least) are like. heres makeup to cover up that ugly acne of yours. but only if you want to 💗✨ #your body is yours and you dont have to change a thing. but if you wanna try not being ugly for once buy our shit 🥰💗✨ #bleafh. i hate it so much

[caruliaa]

zukka is kinda wild to me a little bit just bc like. atla has been ever for so *so* much longer than cs and yet a ship for it w minimal amnts of actual canon subtext outside one episode regularly takes up an insane amnt of my dashboard meanwhile carulia has like. the level of overt romantic subtext as a if a hypothetical different show had a relationship intended to be made officially romantic in the last season of a show only for that season to get botched somewhat due to quarantine and yet im the only one making content for it even semi regularly

#TO CLARIFY. I TIHNK ZUKKA IS GOOD AND CUTE AND FINE AND IK THIS IS IN PART BC THE ATLA FANDOM IS BIGGER #im jsut using zukka as an example yk #esp bc i remeber ppl arguing over shit like 'the red roses isnt romantic >:(( its just carmens colour !!' #and its jsut insane to me bc like. iv seen ppl be anti zukka somewhat but never anyone argue its bc of a lack of subtext #and its jsut inanse bc i see huge long posts on the dynamic of zukka and im like. babygirl where are u getting that from other than boiling #rock #meaningwhile iv seen like 3 semi long posts on the carulia dynamic evne when ppl see that theyre gay they dont wanna put in the work #to see shit thats write in front of them in regards to theure dynamic or at least talk abt it #AGAIN THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO W ZUKKA PERSONALLY IM V GLAD FOR EVERYONE MAKING POSTS LIKE THAT GO ZUKKA SHIPPER GO !!!!!!!!!! #im just using it as an example #actually i feel like i get this from luce saying to me 'like i thought carulia wld be like zukka like its the popular gay ship #but it doesnt have a lot in canon subtext but it isnt its actually like. insanly obvious' #(<- IM PARAPHRASING IF UR A MAD ZUKKA SHIPPER PLS DIRECT UR HATE TOWARDS ME NOT THEM PLEASEEE TY) #but also a lot of it is more just like. how fandoms treat mlm ships vs wlw ships.but idk maybe im justt being dumb #(ALSO THE LAYWERS OF @CARULIAA.ORG WOULD LIKE TO CALRIFY THAT THEY DO INFACT BELEIVE THAT ZUKKA HAS SOME CANON ROMANTIC SUBTEXT #MOSTLY WITHIN THE EPISODE 'THE BOILLING ROCK' BUT THAT THEY ARE HAPPY AND GLAD FOR ANYONE WHO FINDS ANY BOTH WITHIN AND OUTSIDE THAT EPISOD #AND THAT ONCE AGAIN THEY ARE SIMPLY USING ZUKKA MORE AS AN EXAMPLE) #(thats a joke i dont have laywers. obvs. but its kinda funny) #but also what do i know iv never even read the the prince and the fool thingy FGHDFHDFHDF #anyway. i just realised idk if tumblr still puts post in a tag if u mention them within ur tags. if so im like DEAD #oh well #tbh i more want my zukka mutuals to know i love their zukka posting !!! keep at it im just using u as an example while studying fandom stuf #also ik the lack of carulia content thing is kinda my fault but also at least im trying to make more !!! no one else is is the tihng #but i Am i have an amv in the works rn !!!!! and a fic in my brain #also the big group animatic kinda uh. forgot abt that ig other ppl are also working on carulia stuff. sorry #<//3 #anyway it soo late. been listieng to our love is god on loop did u kno tht jd just killed kurt and ram omg dont do that !!!!!! #flappy rambles

[courfee]

genuinely dont know if i was just never active enough in the les mis fandom (as in. interacting with people and not just posting my very cool cosplay pics and silly little fics and poems) or if the les mis fandom is just so much more chill than the marauders one. Lowkey makes me miss the chill times. Hearing all the drama and being involved in it is awful, hearing it all and not being involved in it but not managing to like. find a solution for it is also awful, and im just very frustrated about it all.

Once again i must ask: why are people.

#Hp #Marauders #Les mis #I need a tag for general ramblings #I mean genuinely im so happy to be back in fandom spaces #I just dont like that every week there is a new problem #Its supposed to be fun not make me want to run headfirst against a wall #I feel like i need people to vent and vent to people but i dont even know what about #I love all of you on here a lot tho and im glad its fairly easy to curate my bubble of sensible people on here #But still. Why are people in general #Like back in the days of 2011 i was just writing marauders fics for myaelf and posting them #And besides the interaction i had in my comment section i had no connection to the fandom people #And it makes me super happy to be in an active fandom but i could SO do without the frustration #Im gonna go do my own little fandom thinga now and try to stop thinking about cause currently im thibking myself into a hole #And i realise thats very much not good #Just had to kinda vent in the hopes of grtting thr thoughts out at least a little bit

watched highlights of the p5 anime (dub) bc i cant be assed to watch the whole thing and uh. that was a good decision bc i could not handle watching all of that i think

#checkmate #its like. i want to call it bad but the voice actors seemed to have fun with it so thatd feel mean #good things were: #1. hearing Akira talk more n be silly out loud !!!! #2. the faked death scene kinda fucked actually #3. the Akechi moment during the final battle that i was kind of surprised to Not see in the game . tbh #but yea thats like. it #im glad they got all the og voice actors for it at least bc it was nice to hear em again. even if the scripts felt .. weird #p5 #id like to think that Akiras in royals end was a callback to the anime tho .. or does the timeline not line up that way. idk #oh and seeing Akechi n Akira fight while Loki n Arséne fight above them. also fucked. despite everything #i like the glove thing better than the chess thing but they did the symbolism between those 2 alright for what i saw #oh oops i forgot quotes do that to tags. yknow when Akira says checkmate n all that. yeah ^

[perenlop]

journeys is one of the most disheartening pokeani arcs because you can tell they had a decent setup for it but also that they had no clue what they wanted to do and lost steam partway through

#tbh some of the decisions legit make me wonder if a lot of it was pushed by tpci and they had to make a ton of changes #like. idk if id go as far as saying they made them add ash at the last minute but i do think tpci was weird about his arc here #while im glad they did choose to conclude his character in JN i do feel like SM was a good stopping point for him #and like i wonder if the original plan was for goh to be the sole protagonist bc he feels more realized than ash does in this arc #obviously i dont think that was a plan for very long if it even was a plan at all bc ash is so important to the show #but like at the very least i think they were just confused and not sure how to handle ash #and this is purely speculation on my part dont take it as gospel but i wonder if theres like a ton of mandates around ash #that makes it a bit harder to write stories around him these days. like in OS he was allowed to be a fuckhead basically #but now that hes basically a second mascot for the entire franchise i imagine theres a lot of strings attached to him now #like thats the real reason he never ages or anything its a lot of corporate stuff. #and despite JN supposedly having more freedom than any other series they probably couldnt do too much with ash or something #idk if that really tracks well with SM tho ill have to check once im there #but idk maybe thats why he and pikachu both are weirdly characterized there #echoed voice
