The concept of lark finding out “what the doodler wants” and then shattering it before anyone else can know is sooooo fascinating to me because the way I’ve always read it the doodler doesn’t want anything. To me, the doodler was horrifying because it was not an all powerful malicious entity with goals or wants, but a faceless brainless force of nature that was so strong it’s mere presence in the world spelled destruction. Like never once in the podcast has the doodler shown any agency or intent, every action in service of it even in amod seemed entirely motivated and verbalized by its acolytes. We know from amod that the doodler thrives of the concept of randomness and to me that’s all it ever was. It was so heavily entrenched in the random and chaos that it physically could not have wants or desires for power because it would so be against its very nature. That’s why the doodler was scary to me, because it could not be manipulated or tricked like a person could, it was simple raw destructive horrifying power, and I don’t think the lark stuff disproves that. What if that is the truth, what if the doodler doesn’t want anything? If you’re lark, a person who feels crushing responsibility for this disaster and you find out that it is no different in intent than a hurricane, does that not terrify you? Does that not instill in you a fear that if anyone else found out they would feel so powerless against it that they would just give up? They’d give up and the world would end and it would be your fault. This was not the all powerful creature 11 year old you thought it was, the one he wanted to fight to prove his strength, this is pure entropy and chaos and randomness and destruction and no one else can know lest they stop fighting? Is the fighting fruitless, who even knows, but at least it fools you into thinking you’re making a difference.

#Does this make sense idk I’m tired and cold #Basically I never thought the doodler was like a dude chilling in the sky who wanted power with big plans #It just was #and in a gamey sense that’s scary bc you can’t do damage to a force #Idk I wrote an essay but amod a little bit ago and I’ve been thinking about the doodler #Really excited to see where this church of the doodler stuff goes and I swear to go if normal is not the one to put his mind at risk #What’s even the point #Nah I’m just joshing (am I) #Watch out roolts back at it again with long thinky posts that will get like ten notes #Alright good night I sleep now #dndads #dungeons and daddies #The doodler #Lark oak

my opinion of my roommate just gets worse & worse the older his kids get

#& it’s like. I never knew him super well & especially not now but #it’s fucking crazy that despite him 1) having adhd & 2) recognizing that his own dad was abusive #he still thinks it’s totally normal to yell at his wife about how their 11 y/o is a ‘lazy piece of shit’ because he asked #asked for help last minute on an assignment #his wife was legit like ‘he didn’t tell us earlier because he doesn’t feel comfortable talking to us about it (school)’ #& he just. kept repeating the same kind of abusive shit about their kid #dude I wonder if the fact that you say that kind of stuff so loud I can hear it with noise cancelling headphones #has anything to do with why your kid doesn’t want to tell you when it happens 🙄 #i was literally Just talking to my therapist on friday abt #my mom recently bringing up my poor performance in HS & it was. mostly because of stuff I now see happening w [kids name redacted]

Oh god is my fnafhs phase coming back. I have an AU Idea and it's very magical girl-y help (a Lil summary in the tags)

#basically y'know lily abby maggie toddy and mai? all the best girls? (ok except Abby maybe but I'll save her dw) #ok now imagine them as teen magical girls #a normal 2000's/2010's bff group who also kick ass in pretty dresses #now imagine mai and puppet being magical beings from another planet #kinda like the winx club characters that look completely human but they're fairies n stuff? there's a reason why the twins can look like- #Normal humans tho: their true form is a being like Maipett. they're two maipetts #BUT they can shapeshift to look just like any living beings they see #so they can very easily blend in with humans #now what are these beings? basically they're magical dudes that control the “Shadows”. evil spirits that can destroy life in pretty much- #any abitated planet in irreversible ways #one day some shadows breached from the maipetts control and directed themselves to earth as it was the closest living planet #so mai and Charlie as the strongest most able shadowseekers (group of specialized Maipetts with the mission to bring back Shadows to- #security in case of breaching) got a mission to go to earth find the shadows and bring them back. even destroy them if necessary #now what's the group mentioned earlier have to do with all this? #after saving lily from a shadow attack her and mai become “friends” (keep in mind Mai doesn't really know what friends even are) #but with time they do become very close #and since the shadows are never way too far from each other meaning that other shadows might be hiding in the same town Mai wanted to keep- #Lily safe. so she gave her a tiny rock that contains Maipett powers (Mai likes to keep them on her belt for decoration) and showed her- #basic attacks to at least keep Lily safe in case she gets attacked by a shadow and Mai happens to not be there #after a while tho Abby (Lily's roommate and childhood friend) finds out about her friends' powers and she thinks it's soo cool and things #but Lily and Mai especially aren't so cool about it cus pretty much all the situation is supposed to be a secret #so they and abby make a promise: Abby gets a magical gem and of course some lessons how to use it's powers and she keeps the secret #Abby agrees and she joins the group (that remains unnamed until the others join) #Toddy and Maggi were found by Charlie in the meantime. Charlie saved them both from a shadow attack and so Mai decided to give them- #magical rocks aswell with the deal that Charlie was the one to teach them about their powers this time #Toddy decides to name the group “The Shadowseekers” to reference mai and Charlie's literal job #and yeah they go on adventures around the city™ and sorroundings beating shadow's ass and learning to use their powers and work together #while also keeping the secret #idk it came up to me like some minutes ago #fnafhs

one of the wilder takes I heard listening to supernatural podcasts is that Sam crying looks fake while Dean crying looks real

#Dnsksnsks WHO do you know that cries like that???? Just one single tear???? #WHO #lea speaks #They legit were like ‘it looks like Jared can’t cry on command so they faked it’ #my dude WHAT? #between the 2 of them jared is 100% the more believable crier bc /that’s how normal ass people cry/ #not this one single beautiful tear stuff #Like dean scenes can be incredibly emotional but if we are talking realism? #sndkendkenekej

if people could just be normal about the sexualities of complete fucking strangers on the internet for five fucking minutes that would be great. it is so fucking easy to not harass celebrities online about their personal private information that the fact that anyone would even think to do it boggles the mind and yet here we are. just enjoy their art and take what they feel comfortable sharing with the public at face value. sharing your art with the public should not equal a permission slip for everyone to dig thru and scrutinize every second of your life. no one owes the public and so-called “fans” deeply personal information like that.

#this was sparked by the stuff taylor swift said #and how people have chosen to react to it #but also about the stuff i just saw happening with glenn howerton on twitter #and im purposefully making this vague because it applies to so many other celebrities #people i’ve never even heard of #like that whole thing with the dude from heartstopper #that was vile to do to another human being #a real human being cannot queerbait #and it is not normal or healthy to speculate about a stranger’s sexuality online for everyone to see

This Dark Descent

YA fantasy in a world of political unrest & war

a girl whose family ranch is overcome with debt, and her only option to save it is to win the dangerous magical horse race - but she’s not allowed to use an enchanted horse

and a girl who uses illegal magic without a license, and can make undetectable animal golems

both are brought together by a rich heir who has a plan to help them both - in exchange for helping him

Jewish folklore; demidemi & questioning MCs

#this dark descent #aroaessidhe 2023 reads #demiromantic books #demisexual books #this is good I enjoyed it overall! #im maybe just not super into the vibe of the narrative in terms of the romance. #also I don’t like either of the main dudes. not sure if that’s intended or not. #I think I was more interested in horses; what was up with the races; and golem magic stuff which were all a bit…..brief? #or I mean they’re major things - But I guess the drive of the plot was the political stuff which felt a bit samey to me. #I liked the female friendship and ari's cultural journey and the arospec bits #the other MC is aroacespec according to the author; though would probably read as bi to the average reader. (i mean she can be both i guess #(it's barely touched upon for her) #i have questions about animal welfare in this world. is it normal to just do magic shit to them #also. little cat :)

reminder that Beverly had a crush on Erdan

#its so fucking funny to me 😭 #Murph describes a dude as bookish and its IMMEDIATELY over for him #fyping out the convo bc its hilarious to me: #Caldwell: Bev is currently minor-illusioning a pair of pinsnez(?) glasses on his face too #Bev: (giggling) hi! #Erdan: Hey. uhm. do you wear glasses normally? or..? #Bev: Oh! uh (nervous laughter) just for reading. Yknow. ha... i just thought it would help the disguise (more nervous laughter) #Erdan: okay. right. uhm. You know Im... OVER 300 years old right? #Bev: What? yea- I know! ha. #Erdan: good... okay... just so we're all clear... #Caldwell: I shake his hand #(and scene) #Thinkin abt the fact that Bev is the one too accidentally kill erdan... and he also liked erdan :( #naddpod #apollo says stuff #bahumia #tbh hed prob gotten iver it by then tho i think he was just attracted to him

mine thing im crazy about today: the strained grin he gives when pretending like hes not about to attempt murder on his subordinate hes literally What did something good happen :)

in his defense (the only one he gets) kinda stupid to be talking shit about the chairman for being young when the chairman of the company YOURE in (whos 2 feet in front of you and known to be nutty) is younger lol

ITS LEGITIMATELY SOOOOO GOOD mine's the most valid person on earth for stabbing a wank right after his Cinnamon Apple (platonic) just presumably kicked the bucket and this twat's cheerin bout it. WHILE SAYIN HE WAS TOO YOUNG TO BE IN THAT POSITION OF POWER BUT THEN THE NEXT BREATH SAYIN HIS BOSS (WHO IS YOUNGER) SHOULD BE NEXT IN LINE ☠️☠️ absolute kissasses the lot of em..

#snap chats #omg i was thinking of mine today tho cause i was having one of my misanthropic monologues with myself again #overheard someone just casually talkin bout keepin certain dudes around just to use them for certain stuff #and i GUESS thats commonplace and. normal to a degree. but im still not used to hearing people so openly talk about using people like that #IN ANY CASE.... i love that scene tho lmao.... hes so cute.... when he's obsessive <3 #i was gonna say he'd burn down a hospital but bruh he destroyed an orphanage like. i think we know how serious he can be LMAO #HE'S SO WICKED I LOVE HIIIM #anyway need you guys to stop me from going to the city tomorrow to get more pork floss im finally just about out :( #fun news tho my evening class tomorrow isn't in person... hehe..... #i might do comm work with that time 🧍‍♂️maybe..... idk i can prob get two of them done tonight and start the last one in the morn #idk thats for me to figure out ANYWAY. i love mine <3 #i have to post about my other fave freakazoid hang on sorry everyone twitter got me pressed as per usual

#mod posts #idk dude i am so conflicted abt this ‘barnaby is overrated’ shit #on one hand im like… wow another person who feels he’s overrated. daring today are we? #on the other im like… i understand what its like when the character you like isnt the popular one in the community #like i normally tend to hyperfixate on the side characters so i absolutely know how frustrating it is #i also know from personal experience that a lot of it can just be hating it solely BECAUSE its popular #when i was like 14 and undertale came out i hated it just bc it was popular. and then i played it myself and yknow what? i enjoyed it #like… its okay not to like something!! everyone has unique tastes #and i also understand the concern abt barnaby being treated like snatcher (i know NOTHING abt snatcher so dont. quote me on that) #like theres a chance the ‘fanon’ version of barnaby will be given precedence over ‘canon’ #the same shit happened with sans. remember all those sans/reader fics where sans was this edgy mysterious guy? #yet in fanon hes just a funni little skeleton who likes bad jokes? #yet in *canon jesus christ i cant spell today #but like. can we just let people enjoy things if they arent hurting anyone? #like i get it its annoying sometimes. like i had to mute the oc tag bc i was tired of seeing RP stuff #but im not like. going into their inboxes and telling them theyre bad ppl for enjoying a popular character yknow? #sorry this is making like. no sense. and im sorry to put it in tags but i do NOT want this spreading #anyways. those are my thoughts for today.

been laying here listening to Lucky by Dermot Kennedy on loop for half an hour while thinking about Everything Stays and crying

#it’s good crying dw i am just. i have so many feelings about this story #Seven’s Celestial Commentary #Everything Stays #writing stuff #i may be stuck in bed struggling to type due to personal reasons but that will Not stop me from cooking up ideas for this fic #there is gonna be so much fucking angst and it’s gonna hurt soooooo good #the more i listen to it the more the possibilities expand #i can easily see Moon and Reader going back and forth between verses vulnerably arguing over Sun #but i can also see it being Sun and Moon getting real and discussingcougharguingover Reader #can’t decide which i like more #god i wish y’all could see this story the way it plays out in my head #next best thing would be to keep writing and sharing the story instead of vagueposting abt future plot points tho wouldn’t it lmao #and GOD don’t even get me fucking STARTED on Two Hearts… #Dermot Kennedy’s music is responsible for yet Another plot point for this story and i can’t even be mad about it. his fucking lyricsss dude #‘and so we jump to the THEATER??? in that SAME OLD TOWN???’ DO WE? FUCK I GUESS WE DO NOW!!! #picture me listening to that song and inspiration hitting me like a truck. diligently taking notes like the lyrics r instructions from God #‘she sees his face?? and HE sees HER as the LIGHTS GO DOWN???’ write that down write that down #‘the life that they should’ve had sat between them that night??’ FUCK Man yeah it sure did!!! #anyways it’s chill i’m chill. i’m very normal about my little stories and their musical inspirations! #and i’ve listened to these songs a very normal amount (translation: they will likely be in my top ten for the 2024 wrapped) #(cut to the scenes playing vividly in my head) ‘Well‚ at least I can always say that I /told/ her!’ #‘I can’t relate to having a heart like that‚ Sun! With all of your wonder and your trust intact…’ #like no i wouldn’t lift the lyrics directly for the song to use as dialogue but FUCk does it work well.. Lucky is such a good script for- #like- a heated conversation between my Relentlessly Positive Sun and my Apathetic Jaded Moon #‘How could our farewell mean as much as our time? Honey‚ I’ll be gone. It’s better if I’m something that you leave behind.’ #‘I used to paint these trees‚ now I just scream at the sky. Honey I was wrong. Guess there’s certain things you never leave behind.’ #*sobbing shaking throwing up clawing at the walls* I Am Normal About These Characters #anyways uh. on an unrelated note how many song lyrics do ya think i can cram into ES before it’s Too Many #gonna have to start getting creative with how i can incorporate more songs in a way that feels natural and not forced #even tho i am forcing it. i am forcing it very much bc i have songs with applicable lyrics and y’all Will read them one way or another

[mummer]

I havent really been into the current state of the JJK manga for a while, im at the point where its ending might hold some value for me as someone who was already invested in the characters but largely aside from seeing how a few things pan out I just really really couldn't care less. 

that being said I have to thank gege for every new chapter giving us more and more good looking Gojos. the more feral and covered in blood the better, and hoo boy am I getting that.

#god can he just kill sukuna already tho. like idc about this I want gojo v kenjaku #im of two minds on the megumi thing bc I do think its weird that gojo hasn't had any strong thoughts about potentially killing megumi #(tho i do think gege is like. holding them back rather than ignoring them) but I also think the fandom forgets their canon relationship #like yeah its nice to imagine them as a wholesome family but I dont think they even think of themselves as father and son at all lol #guardian and ward morelike. and I do think gojo was a decent guardian but I also dont think that recently traumatized and also annoying #teen gojo was ever like. very emotionally available or comforting. not to say it shouldn't be expected for gojo to be upset about this but #also I think people can get a little too wrapped up in their wholesome family pics. bc for one you can bet your ass gege doesnt care about #tsumiki enough to consider whether gojo was technically her guardian as well and how he'd care about her fate. or even nobaras it seems #holding out for gojo to be simply repressing his feelings and it biting him in the ass later but idk #he DID look strained when realizing megumis soul recognized ultimate void tho :(((( that does make me said :(((((( #anyways sukuna was a fine enough villain for me but ngl hes gotten a lil annoying likewhatevs dude idc. kenjaku is hells more cunty than you #normally I wouldn't mind his shallow motives and didnt bc he was a threat that contributed to the plot but now that hes out and running #loose hes just so boring idk. like you're just gonna fight stuff. ok. lame. kenjaku vs gojo might actually have some emotional weight to it #idc about this fight and idc about sukuna #like when gojo mentioned his students and they all grinned. that! that that that he cares about them ok gege! #jujutsu kaisen #jjk 230
