#just wanted to ramble

“Ok Borzoi so why don’t you like Dirkjohn” - somebody, who didn’t ask, but I want to ramble. 
I guess it’s funny as a crack ship but in actuality, i feel it would fall incredibly flat and only be viable in an unhealthy way. Canonically, they've got little to nothing to do with each other, and their relationship branches on bullshit in the epilogues and HS2 which just isn't a good judge of Dirk and Johns character so much as a butcher of it.
First, lets get their characters down. Dirk, very introspective to the point of destruction, who’s prone to rambling, overcomplicating and accentuating things in a way to keep up his aura of coolness, of being “totally in control and all knowing”, and sort of socially awkward, failing quite a few times to read jokes as jokes. 
John, upfront, more likely to push forward without really thinking, keeps things simple and asks not much, and very much a protagonist figure. He’s blunt, he’s teasing in his humour, and he likes to take the mic out of people and make his own fun. 
Dirk is very active. He's willing to go through many hoops and talk around himself, and he needs a conversational partner willing to spar him on it, however, John is anything but that. He's upfront, he brings a hypothetical hammer down into the bush that dirk is walking around. Jake will indulge, so will a lot of the alpha kids, but the beta kids by far are more blunt and straight forward. John would see whatever bullshit Dirk is pulling and think it's stupid and ornery, and shut him down..Dirk would go "okay" and then either try to counterpoint to be shut down, or walk away.This conversation is a relaly good point of reference for how it would go. Note how roxy is going through the general alpha kids bullshit theatrics and ornery, and john instead of getting it, cuts it down with "no thats stupid", and doesnt get the joke.
Tumblr media

dirk wouldn't know how to handle someone actually being completely straight up and refusing to humor him, being open about not giving a shit about whatever tangent dirk is on.  it might humble him which he definitely needs sometimes but most of the time itd just make him go "ok. whatever man im going to jake's"
Tumblr media
(art by my boyfriend) 
Nobody puts up with dirk and jakes bullshit as much as dirk and jake do each other
DIRK: "I'll get this blue gumball son of a bitch this time. He's gonna be so perplexed by the bullshit im about to spew he's got no idea the storm that's wafting in on the wind."
 and then john says ratio and dirk is reduced to ash. 
John and Jake also have a bad habit of comparison in a negative sense, like how he did with davesprite. Jake does it out loud with no regard for others, and John is the type to drop a single “x has already made this joke” because his preference of Dave is so much stronger than Dirk. Dirk wouldn’t be able to beat Dave to the ironic punchline because most likely, Dave has already said it in a language John understands, and John has made fun of him for it already. John doesn’t have patience for long winded games, if he’s not in the mood he’ll just fuck off. 
Personally feel like John would be acutely aware that Dirk hates when he shuts him down, but he just genuinely cannot sit here and listen to a “worse version of dave talk like hes pretending to be rose. I just cant.i don’t have it in me.” 
I mean I think they’d be funny somewhat, but they would not be happy together at all it would be awkward as hell. Dirk needs someone to pull him out of his bullshit but John just won’t do that. He won’t consider it really that much. They could have funny moments, but the toxicity of their potential relationship sours most of it for me. Dirk is pretty fucking intense in a lot of ways, and hes prone to being a lot. 
the alpha kids in general are just way intense due to their fucking isolation whatever thety smoked in those years made them volatile like fucking potent like a chili peppers but thats words for another ramble.
John just isn’t able to match Dirk. He doesn't think enough, he's just going with the flow and dirk needs someone who can either match him on an intellectual level or someone who can match him in an interest way. John just wouldn’t take the relationship seriously enough, which would lead to Dirk trying to figure out something that isn’t there to really figure out. John matches well with someone who has known him for a while and doesn’t have a specific way they want things to go.

You know the drill: new hxh chapter new post.
This was definitely the most heartbreaking chapter *so far*
Tumblr media
Seeing Chrollo take the blame for what happened to Sarasa is sad, and I’m sure he still feels at fault for what happened to her even now as an adult. He’s just a scared kid… the way he’s clutching at his pants 😭 god he’s just a kid they’re all kids it’s so sad..
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The meteor city citizens are so close, they’re all willing to risk their lives (let’s not forget the kidnappings) to go look for Sarasa, they’re more like family rather than simple fellow citizens.
Tumblr media
Seeing how they put their lives on the line for others makes this part even more special imo.
Tumblr media
I think it’s obvious that this lady is going to teach nen to Machi, I wonder if they’re all going to have different teachers, or if it’s Renko that will teach everyone? I’m more inclined to believe that it will be just Machi, given the nature of Renko’s ability.
Tumblr media
Also seeing Machi wanting to learn how to “reattach” bodies like this and fix them makes me wonder if there’s any meaning to her reattaching Hisoka like that, after his fight with Chrollo? She had no reason to do that at all, since he pretty much betrayed them.
Tumblr media
He’s just a little baby why why why 😭😭 i think this might connect to his conversation with Gon, and how he felt like he has no identity, he probably lost himself while playing the part of the villain to protect his people.
Tumblr media
This makes the requiem sadder, he wanted Uvo to be their leader.. he cared a Lot for him.
Tumblr media
Aaaand timeskip. I wonder what happened to Chrollo during these years, I’m hoping we get more flashbacks. Also, we can see Shalnark now? In the og flashback during York New he was hidden by the speech bubble? I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that he’s dead now? Maybe it was a hint. But i guess it would’ve made more sense if the one hidden was Uvo. Idk.
Also another thing I don’t get is the Kurta massacre. Why would they go and do that? Torture kids in front of their parents? Sarasa was also tortured by the kidnappers, so why having people go through what they went through? And I’ve seen people say that the kidnapper is the same that’s in the videotape Tserriednich was watching, so maybe Tserriednich is connected to the kidnappings? And why did Sheila leave like that, why did she not attend the funeral of her best friend? 🤔

I actually enjoyed yesterday's episode. I had a lot of anxiety about how they would make it work. These are my honest opinions.
Thoughts
-Loved Bazz B all but flirting with Renji and Renji blushing and Rukia dryly saying "good for you.'
-Uryu getting Treachery theme
-They removed the dumb jokes about Orihime's outfit which means a) she chose to go to battle with her tits out (good for her), b) ichigo and co respects her choice cuz healthy friendships ftw
-they toned down the Yumichika Scene a bit but as someone pointed out just because he didnt respect Giselle's gender, other characters do. Diversity Win, the mad scientist that wants to experiment on you and brought zombies to fight your zombies respects your gender! (I'm joking somewhat). I mean I think they did okay adapting. Bleach could use more "good guy" queer characters tho since it's usually just villains that get the queer vibes. But nothing is ever outright said, and nothing is perfect, cuz one could argue soi fon is into a woman but you can never 1000% for sure say. Also something something Bleach villains arent usually one hundred percent evil something something shonen manga something something. (Giselle is pretty evil though, but also well written. And maybe my affinity for villains in general makes me feel more positive than I should about it all...altho tbh I dont like her character overall. But she definitely stands out from the others and I respect that)
-seeing some of the arrancar again on screen was fun. The animation was good. Zombie toshiro arrival was awesome.
-I'm kinda getting pumped for the next ep again. 😂

Hi, today I came into a realization, and I wanted to share it.
We all love to watch movies, anime, drama, or anything. We try everything to escape reality and find comfort in the fantasy world, fictional world which is more pretty than ours, more interesting than ours, amazing than ours. We love the feelings we feel while watching k-drama or reading a book. We cry when there is a sad scene, get angry on behalf of the protagonist, feel embarrassed for them, or try to hype them up when they are in a pinch.
We often times want to experience this ourselves, but in all this we forget we are also the main characters of our story. We sometimes also experience the same dramatic things. We just require a different perspective. We just have to take a moment and think of our lives as we are in a movie, and then everything starts feeling different.
For example, yesterday was a total hectic day for me. My office has a cab service, and we get a pick-up time. And at the time of my pick-up, I was at parlor doing my eyebrows. It's just by luck that my cab got delayed, and I was able to make it on time. And I had both also got my eyebrows done and got on that cab.
Now, if I was watching this scene on TV, I would be like, Oh My God is she going to make it or not and I would be that Idiot why does she have to go at that time. If she is going to miss her cab, she will be late for office and get scolded. And I will also be is that idiot likes to get scolded. And then I will be so happy when she makes it to the cab. It will be "uhh" moment the long exhale that we take after being relaxed like that!
And if you think that was it, then you guys are wrong. There was some feud going on between my newly appointed assistant manager and team leader in my office, (as the tl wanted to be the am of our team) and between their feuds, all of the team got wrapped around. We all had pressure on us with whom to side and to decide who was wrong and right in this. After reaching home that night, we all got unexpected calls from our manager to tell us the details about their cold war, we then knew the matter had got out of hand and we had to decide with whom we will side with and as we still couldn't decide with whom we want to side, we all tried to stand on the middle ground like we won't be siding with anyone. After getting a call from our manager, my friends and I had a three-way conference call to talk about it, and shared what he asked with us and what we're our opinions and then we came to know that we three had diffraction opinions about this matter, where as one of my friend and me does not want to get into it, we cam to know that our other friend was the who escalated things by telling our am about what our tl was taking about her. We were shocked at the time and asked why she did that, and then she explained about how our tl was bad mouthing her because she and our newly appointed am were close.
Now, if I was reading a book and the main character was having office issues, I would sympathize with her get angry on her behalf and would absolutely love the drama happening there.
And in all that tension, I had more things going on, my younger sister who is only in her first year in college and lives alone in a hostel in a completely unknown city to was not picking up her phone after going to an event with her friends. It was 8:30 when she told our mother that she had left for home and 9 'O' clock when the hostel warden called my mother to let her know that she had not reached home yet. After that, my mother called her multiple times, and she was not picking up the phone. Then my mother called me in hopes I knew something. (here to be noted that I also live alone in a different city than my parents and sister) I called her and she wasn't picking up the phone I called her friends and they also told me she wasn't picking up the phone. We all went dry on our throat in worry for her. It wasn't till 10:30 that we reached her and she told us that she was stuck in traffic and her phone was in silent. We all were so tensed for her, and we all felt a lot of emotion at that anger was also one of them, but relief was main that she reached her place safely, and nothing bad her happened to her.
Now, when reading this in a book or watching this in a TV I would have mostly felt angry towards the main character younger sister, like how can she keep her phone on silent and what was she really doing that she had to keep her phone silent and how can she make her older sister and her whole family worry like that and if she had a little bit of sense or not.
When today I was thinking about how yesterday went I came to realize I totally live in a movie or a book my life is not different than theirs. These were just small snipets of what I experienced in a day. There must be so much experience like that which I must have experienced in a week a month or even a year. Yesterday made me realize how just having a different view about a thing can totally change the thing. From I would try to think I'm the main character of my favorite book at try to live like that, if my life is like a movie so why not?

We Need More Of The Cuphead Show!
We really do need more of this show after the producers and people who worked on it get a break. It's not perfect, sure, but it's still really good. There are plenty of reasons why we need more seasons. Rewatching this show, I noticed it gets better over the seasons. The first season was a simple test in the waters, the second one was more experimental, and the third was more character-focused (hence why it's my favorite out of the three)
I'm just saying, it doesn't have to have a plot, it can still be random adventures, but there are some things we need to be answered.
What I hope is answered in possible future seasons are these:
HOW did Chalice become an orphan in the first place? We need a little more elaboration on her backstory.
HOW does Cuphead have so many talents, and why does he not show them around?
What the hell is up with Mugman? Just what even IS Mugman. (doesn't stop him from being my favorite but still, holy shit!)
Why does Dice work for the Devil?
How did the Devil become the devil?
Will Cuphead ever find out that the Devil gave him the toy train? I'm curious about what his reaction would be.
I might add more, but these are pretty much what I have for now.
The things I hope to see in possible future seasons are these:
More bosses
Hopefully keeping the elaboration and exploration of the characters
More character development (especially with Cuphead, mainly because it's refreshing to see that he's not impulsive ALL THE TIME and can be responsible and focused at times. Not to mention, it's nice to see how he's a little nicer, and shows some courage and selflessness (betting his (and Mugman's) souls to free Chalice from her debt, helping king dice, freeing the souls) in the third season, and hopefully, this grows over time)
That's all I have right now.

Had a momentary bi panic today. Went to get my haircut, it was a short wolfcut, and my hair stylist who was my age was just having casual conversation with me. Of course, I’m not good with any conversation on the account of I’m a fucked up piece of shit so she started trimming my split ends and talks about how her last client was this older lady who kept talking about how the lgbt community is not getting enough respect they deserve and my hair stylist told me what she told the older lady “yea I know how that feels because I’m one of them” and I freeze up. And then she pauses, throws her scissors down, and runs across the hair salon to show me these rainbow stickers the lady gave to her and I just kept nodding not saying anything like the complete idiot that I am, she smiles cutely and says “sorry I got excited. I saw your rainbow pins on your jacket and I just wanted to show you my own flare!” I smiled back. Then she asked where I graduated high school, I told her I got transferred out of there twice for being bullied and she asked me why I got bullied I seemed like a cool person. I blushed as she kept rambling on and on. And as soon as she was done with my hair, I paid for the haircut, we smiled at each other again and I will mentally hit myself knowing I had a chance to flirt back, to say more and maybe just make a friend but noooo. My introverted ass said “Don’t you dare think about it ❤️☺️”

Does Silco do background checks on all of his children's romantic partners?
Also, love all your Mylo prompts!
May I request a little bit of angst and enquire how Silco and Vander would react if Mylo ends up with an abusive partner?
(extra angst if O!Mylo is preggo and with same background from WetNurse)
Yeah I think Silco did run background checks on all his children's partners. Or at least reached out to his networks to see what he could find out about them especially if they are relatively unknown to him previously. Possibly sends someone to spy on them for a bit to make sure they aren't hiding anything.
Oh man if any of the kids got an abusive partner there would be an ""accident"" arranged for said partner basically as soon as Silco finds out about it. Silco and Vander would rather deal with their kid's short-term pain and grief over the partner dying than let the abuse continue on. Vander wants to cave their skull in of course but is aware that that's going to make the situation worse so Silco can handle it his way. End result is pretty much the same.
If Mylo's pregnant at the time Silco probably uses the partner's death to manipulate Mylo into moving back home with them. Vander's more willing to let Mylo decide what support he wants from his parents and what he wants to do next but Silco wants him back where he can keep a closer eye on him (and any alphas possibly hanging around trying to jump on the situation) and, well, Silco is very good at getting what he wants.

You guys rlly don't realise how much knowledge is still not committed to the internet. I find books all the time with stuff that is impossible to find through a search engine- most people do not put their magnum opus research online for free and the more niche a skill is the less likely you are to have people who will leak those books online. (Nevermind all the books written prior to the internet that have knowledge that is not considered "relevant" enough to digitise).
Whenever people say that we r growing up with all the world's knowledge at our fingertips...it's not necessarily true. Is the amount of knowledge online potentially infinite? Yes. Is it all knowledge? No. You will be surprised at the niche things you can discover at a local archive or library.

I saw a tiktok talking about the massive shortage of feminine hygiene products in Gaza.
The only charity right now that seems to be helping with this shortage is called Motherbeing
Motherbeing is an organization based on education and providing assistance in healthcare for Arab women.
They recently donated 200,000 sanitary pads as women have been taking dangerous measures to delay their periods out of fear of toxic shock syndrome.
In case you are unaware, toxic shock syndrome is a possibly life threatening infection that develops from wearing a feminine hygiene product, usually tampons or cups, for too long.
They currently don’t have donations open, but people are trying to get them to. There’s products you can buy from their website, however.
This will get like three notes, but I just came across it and I wanted to post something. When something as serious as genocide happens, people forget little things like pads and tampons, which actually can be life threatening.
If you want to donate to charities similar to this one, here’s a few I found:
-Helping Women Period: provides pads and tampons to women (and people with uteruses) who are low income or homeless.
-The Pad Project: supplies low income women with pads all over the world.
-She Supply: provides pads and tampons for homeless women in Texas
-Free the Tampon: organization working towards making sanitary products free
-The Period Panty Project: takes physical donations of sanitary products as well as just donations for women in Ohio.
-Days for Girls: donated reusable pads to women all over the world.
There’s a lot more. Feel free to research

The manga industry, especially JUMP, needs to hurry up and do away with weekly scheduling for mangaka. There needs to better regulations put into place for their health and safety because this is pitiful. Two weeks - monthly updates should’ve already been the standard for the manga industry at this point. These money grabbers will only continue to put the lives of these artists at stake for the sake of capitalism unless some serious changes are implemented.

you know what boils my blood.
over the last 2 weeks, i've seen countless patients walk into my urgent care center, symptomatic for so many things, refusing to get tested for covid and flu, citing that they don't want to knowingly bring it to their holiday tables. i had a patient tell me, verbatim, "i don't want to test for covid, because i don't want to be the asshole who brings it on a plane."
i understand that - i understand that holidays are times where people look forward to meeting loved ones that they might only see once a year, or where they get a break from the hectic back and forth of their lives.
but here's the thing - whether they get tested or not, they will bring whatever they have to their holiday tables. it's pure recklessness to know that you're sick, and walk into someone else's house spreading the disease.
today, january 2, i saw 91 patients, many of them who have tested positive for covid and flu. many of these patients are the same ones who didn't want testing 3 days ago, until their events were over, and now, they will have to reach out to everyone they know to let them know that they were positive because they were showing symptoms well before their event.
the next week or two? we're going to see many, many more, all people with symptoms that started around christmas. these are the only two viruses we test for rapidly in our office, but they are potent and can be fatal in many people.
so here's why i wrote this post, and maybe it's a little late, but - if you care about your loved ones, please get tested if you know you're sick. it doesn't have to be at a clinic if you don't want it to, because the over-the-counter tests work just fine too (if you test within 5-7 days of symptom onset). just...please don't try to run from the knowledge that you might have covid, because immunocompromised people, elderly people, people with co-morbidities like asthma, pregnancy, diabetes, etc...many of them may not recover. and they may not be sitting at your holiday table in the future because of it.

I ❤️ self-loathing characters, characters who struggle with monstrosity (either fearing or embracing it), characters who are so lonely, who have a gaping hole in their chest, who bottle up & repress their feelings, who claw their way up & have ambitions, who fall down & lose everything, who search for identity & purpose yet can’t see themselves outside of what others want from or expect of them, who are hurt & hurt others, who long & grieve, who lie & pretend. characters who are messy & flawed & human

I'll look at pictures of myself and go "no way I look like that" and it skews both positively and negatively; some days it's "I can't be that pretty" and sometimes it's "I look better than that." And my feelings on one picture can change so much. If I stare at myself long enough, I stop feeling like it's me. It's just an image. What do you mean that's me? I can touch that?
I'm not entirely convinced we're meant to see our own faces. My brain can't seem to comprehend the connection half the time; is it supposed to anyway?
