listen y’all need to have more trust in lewis and also more trust in charles. granted, ferrari is the variable we are all scared of here, but I do trust vassuer more than binotto and I don’t think either of these drivers would sign these deals with ferrari if they, or any of their trustworthy team, thought it was going to be bad for them.

#lewis isn’t signing to be some mid second driver and charles isn’t going to automatically get deprioritized #he’s just going to have to earn that priority which I have faith in him to fight for fairly anyways and I think he’d enjoy that challenge #against a fair competitor and seasoned champion like lewis #it may come as a surprise to some but drivers with their talent and level actually enjoy competition with others on the same wavelength #and I think if I were to accept charles being beaten by anyone it would be at lewis’ hands anyways AND vice versa #they have always produced spectacular but largely respectful moments when they race each other #maranello.txt #the fans and discouese and media WILL be horrendous #but honestly I think this could be something exciting for both of them??#they really did always seem like they enjoyed racing each other #and I genuinely want nothing more than for both of these drivers to enjoy racing again purely

I wanted to know how do you interpret Tanya's gender. After reading chapter 58 of the manga i got the impression that she is definitely trans coded, but maybe thats just me

Very good question.

To be honest, when I think too hard about Tanya’s gender (and sexuality, for that matter) it gives me brain worms. Fun brain worms, but brain worms nonetheless. I can’t explain it. Everything she’s got going on is complicated as shit there’s way too much to think about.

Like, she was a man, but now she's a girl. But at some points she says she still sees herself as a man internally so is this MtFtM? How does that work. And if she accepts she's a woman now, is that just MtF or do we add more letters. More importantly: Was Being X being Transphobic or being the Greatest Trans Ally of All Time with the free divinely issued sex change.

Ok ok, jokes aside. Confession: I actually do not keep up with the manga, so I had to go find the chapter and read it first. Having read it now though, I see what you mean.

The conversation she has with the Salaryman/herself in that chapter really does read as essentially saying “I’ve accepted who I am now.” It’s a far cry from a much earlier part of the manga I remember where she has a breakdown about being a man/people seeing her as a girl.

A friend of mine was actually showing me stuff from more recent chapters of the manga (don’t know which chapter tragically, but I know it’s not currently translated to English) and from what I gathered of it, Being X was showing Tanya a dream of being back in her past life and in response she basically demanded to go back to being Tanya immediately. It is definitely not just you, I 100% see the trans-coding you’re talking about.

As for my personal interpretation of her gender, I touched very briefly on it once before, but I honestly think she wouldn’t want to label herself as anything. At first, this is out of hesitance and not wanting to acknowledge that anything might be ““wrong”” or ““different”” about her. Later on it turns into character growth, more along the lines of, “I don’t need the label to define me, I just am what I am/like what I like. I don’t care about it any more than that.” Yes this is 100% projection on my part. No, I won’t apologize for it lmao.

Of course, that's entirely my own headcanon. I definitely am not saying it’s the only way to interpret her, it’s just my personal thoughts. Especially since my opinion is subject to change on a dime depending on what I’m reading/working on myself. The Tanya gender is, in fact, transient, shifting like water.

Like. A transfem Tanya fic that focuses on her adapting to life in her new world and coming to discover she doesn’t actually hate her new body? I’d totally read that. I’ve seen a few fics that include that as a part of the narrative and those scenes of acceptance were among my favorite parts.

I get the feeling this is the route that the manga is going as well. It’s a bit of a shame that we don't have those aforementioned scenes in the light novel (or at least, I don't remember them), but I don’t think that Carlo Zen really intended that to be the focus/narrative in the first place. And honestly, I also think that’s a good thing because it allows for so much more room for interpretation and headcanon around Tanya’s character.

Anyway, the other direction is also compelling to me. A transmasc Tanya fic where, after feeling uncomfortable and hating how feminine he looks for years and years, he finally goes ‘Fuck this, I’m gonna go back to being a man’? I would read the fuck out of that too.

Could also be paired with him finally choosing to defect, where they think about it like, ‘Well there’s nothing to hold me back now, right? I don’t have to maintain appearances anymore. Also, since I’m defecting this would be a great way to hide myself. They’d all be looking for the wrong person. Two birds with one stone, how efficient.’ …Now we’re getting to fic ideas I won’t ever get to so it’s time to move on I think.

Semi-related to the Trans Tanya Concept, this actually brings me to a bit of a lore/headcanon/idea/question I want to present to the public for opinions. In Norden, during the inciting battle of the war, Tanya uses magic to “dope up” so she could enhance her strength and reaction time and kill pain. I took this to mean she used a formula to synthesize the narcotics/adrenaline hormone/whatever else directly into herself, right?

Can you see where I’m going with this? As long as you know which hormones to make, how they’re made up, and what quantities you need… Well, don’t you think magic HRT is completely possible? Of course, as I'm not sure it makes sense for Salaryman to have known the detailed specifics about it from the modern world, it would require a lot of in-universe research/science advancement for someone to actually do that, but theoretically...

The magic system in this universe has so much potential to be explored, I’m fascinated by what you can theoretically do with it. Although, this is long and off-topic already I think this should be the end, lol.

I think I talked too much? I’m sorry, you were probably not expecting such an answer. I told you, Tanya gives me brain worms (mental illness).

I guess the TL;DR is this: that kid definitely ain’t cishet.

#marathehomosexual #ask #not a daily post #you could ask me a simple yes or no question and i would STILL find a way to make the answer multi-paragraph #i STILL have things to talk about. im just choosing to throw it in the tags now #LIKE. if synthesizing hormones is something completely possible in universe #is birth control possible as well? how about anti-depressants?#how far can we go with this? can you get addicted to these magic-synthetic chemicals/hormones/whatever?#say you need a little pick me up in the day. you give yourself a little boost in the happy-brain-chemicals (dopamine or whatever)#(im not a biologist or knowledgeable about most biology-related things honestly. please just go with it)#would a mages body start to rely on magic to produce it and stop creating it naturally anymore?#could this create a dependency? would you start to need to make more?#its insane. i feel insane #you ask me a simple question and i refuse to stop elaborating #rimu be quiet now

if you have some, do you have any headcannons for barnaby?

honestly! not really! i don't have hcs for any of the neighbors!

#the way i interact w/ welcome home is uh... slightly differently than how i interact with more mainstream / company-produced media #like if you compare how i talk about the neighbors/wh to how i talk about characters on say... my dc blog #there's probably gonna be a notable Difference!#with mainstream/company stuff i go Hog Wild with hcs and aus and i form my own version of everything in my head #(while still understanding & respecting canon as the true source)#but wh is Different! i can't really do that!#it isnt some big production created by a team & mass released #where the actions of some fans just fuckin around and having fun won't directly affect anyone or even reach the ears of the creators #and where upon releasing it everyone Knows that its gonna be dissected & torn to shreds & played with like barbies #wh is more... personal? there is one main creator. these are His characters. its Their story.#i can't in good conscience make headcanons and honestly? id much rather stick to canon trivia & facts than create my own #theyre not my facts to create or believe in!!#sometimes ill make a post saying 'hey this would be cute / neat'#but as soon as i post im tossing that thought away. i dont let them stick or become hcs #(NOTE THAT I AM NOT BASHING ANYONE WHO MAKES HCS. THIS IS ALL MY PERSONAL OPINION!!! MY OWN PERSONAL INTERNAL RULES!!! FOR ME!)#rambles from the bog #like even with the lights out au im being careful with it. im trying to be faithful & respect the characters and the source #its an... exploration i think #ive never approached making an au this way bc usually im just flinging characters around and treating canon as a chew toy - scrap for parts #but i cant do that here! im Not Complaining At All im simply stating! i cant!#sorry you probs weren't expecting a lil mini rant in tags my b <3 #this has just been in my head since i first discovered welcome home #i remember feeling myself start getting really attached & interested #and i recall telling myself 'ok. we cant approach this the way we would other things'#and i have done my best to Stick To That. ive relaxed a lil since then but im still standing by my one rule #Be A Little More Normal About This Than I Would If It Were Mainstream / A Company-Made Production

See we all want dios apate to be no children by the mountain go*ts but the fact is that even though on all other levels they are going down with each other hand in unloveable hand they DID create a child. One children

#hghjkll i'm once again thinking about the fic? where she says if either of you got me pregnant i would terminate with force #did she say that in canon? it has to be a fic right. i honestly can't remember #it was so funny i've been thinking about it ever since #she said no children (except that one time!)#the whole thing with wake too. it's so tragic on gideon's side having a mother who saw her as a thing not a person but on wake's side #it's just like yeah of course she hated the whole thing! she's also in her own no children by the mountain go*ts situation #take 6 people only one of whom should ever have a child & use the two who under no circumstances ever should to actually. produce the kid #one children

do you think Liam's new song is good?

I DO! Like obviously his voice is impeccable, he's SO pro and can do whatever he wants, but also his skill at crafting a pop song is also just ON IT, and this song is even better at that than his usual imo. But the most standout thing for me in a way is the lyrics; I think that's the biggest area where he's struggled since losing the Louis half of the Lilo songwriting machine, letting other people write for him or trying to churn out what he thought he should maybe. But this song, while they're simple and to the point, I really feel like they're so vulnerable and true and sincere! It's a lot!

I mean I don't personally think you have to strip yourself bare for the public in order to make good music, I'm fine with lyrics that aren't personal in that way; but that is what people had complained about that he wasn't doing enough and he made it clear that he had heard that and was responding to it, so if he's really done a whole album like this I hope they will be happy. And I'm very impressed with him since I think he had been trying for that and it took him some time to find it. Like I've said before it's not the kind of music I really listen to but *I* feel like it SHOULD be a huge radio hit, I'd rather hear it on constant repeat than most of the stuff that is. But Hope made such a good point right now about how his actual voice, as talented as he is, might be a factor in his struggle to get that kind of airplay; it's true that it's SO pro that it blends rather than standing out? Like how people tend to not realize how much he sings on 1D songs for instance (SO MUCH).

#the fact that I like it better than most of the stuff on the radio is probably a sign that I'm wrong and it isn't what people want #but honestly its all just marketing anyway in the end it seems like.. harrys house is hardly what the market seems to want either and yet?#idkkkkk #I think liam could go so far as a producer honestly with his skills #and that he'd be way happier doing that job😞but oh well #other anon stoppppp😅😊😘

#nothing is more depressing than working on my cv #because I just don't feel like I have marketable skills #and so many of the writing and research posts I come across on job sites are like ''you'll be working alongside ai''#I even saw a copywriter post that said ''you won't be doing any writing or editing. you job will be to refine and improve ai prompts #so that the ai can more consistently produce the texts we need''#like hello #the person doing that job is literally making themself more obsolete by the day #so here's the plan #I need to take any job that pays vaguely well #and use that money to either do short corses #or save up to go so my masters #that conclusion is inescapable #just. for now I'm still stuck on step 1 : finding a decent job #and (perhaps I'm being too picky) but post covid I do not want to go back into anything in the tourism industry #it's too precarious and honestly just comes down to entertaining rich people which pushes me further left every time i think about it #I considered joining the communist party. but 1) they're still part of the tripartite alliance with the anc... which is a no from me #and 2) communist révolution should spontaneously happen in industrialised countries with surplus wealth when the proletariat arise #south africa does not have surplus wealth nor class consciousness really. it's still filtered through post apartheid racial groupings #which is unhelpful because the black bourgeoisie are not our allies just because they're black #and trying to impose communism in a society without the surplus wealth didn't work out too well throughout the 20th century #so what does that leave you with #parties like cope ? plagued by the same issues as the anc ? no thank you #(I did also study politics btw which is why I've even considered these career paths)#(although I haven't worked in politics or governance since graduation so maybe that doesn't even matter anymore it's been years)#all I want is a job that pays fairly and leaves me with enough free time to do my hobbies #I do not have the grindset I'll admit that #which is why I've enjoyed the art industry #but again. it just comes down to entertaining rich people in the small galleries which is needlessly stressful #and the larger non-commercial galleries and musea aren't hiring atm...#and that's it. rant over I guess since this is the 30th tag

I look in people's windows is literally the best song on this entire album wtf why is it only 2 minutes long

#idk what patrik berger added to it but its SO GOOD #honestly this is just more proof that taylor needs to work with some new producers every now and then #bc i love the swift-dessner combo and i know jack and taylor have produced so many hits too #but adding a new producer to it really made this song go from great to WOWZA #same thing with florida!!! like florence welch rlly made the song so unique #taylor swift #the tortured poets department

Came to the realization (I've connected it! You didn't connect shit!) about the link between Stoicism (in the philosophical sense) and common trauma responses - both center around the locus of control, and having control over the boundaries of said locus.

The Stoics right, the whole thing with "virtue is sufficient for happiness" is that you don't worry about things outside of your control, and so moral actions (and therefore eudaimonia) are exclusively things within your realm of influence (yes yes that's a gross oversimplification, but the bulk of my academic work was with the Platonists anyway). The Stoics knew where the locus of control was, and their virtue, and their happiness, stemmed (in theory) from knowing, acknowledging, thinking, and acting within the boundaries of this sphere.

A common trauma response also revolves around control, or the lack thereof. When you're accustomed to instability and a lack of a sense of safety control becomes both a means of salvation and damnation. The lack of control, the uncertainty of it, the sense of walking on eggshells, is what causes the trauma in the first place - you have no control over anything and it's terrifying and dangerous.

But control can also mean safety, if you can manage to get it. And you can get control in one of two ways. You can reduce your environment severely, withdrawing from the world out of fear and isolating yourself. Or you can falsely extend your control, tricking yourself into a sense of stability with (often unhealthy) lies and mindgames. Often, people do both. They may become withdrawn and anti-social and fearful of new experiences, even if it is something that there is no reason to fear, no indication that it might be threatening. They withdraw as much as possible from any relationship, experience, or event which has any degree of uncertainty, which they cannot control.

You may also become a people-pleaser, or obsessive about responsibility and causality - if you take the blame for every event on yourself it restores a sense of control, even if it is based in falsity. If you are responsible for managing someone's moods, or causing widespread tragedy, or what have you, then you yourself are the only one to blame when you are punished or when something terrible happens. It is a small comfort perhaps, but better than no comfort at all. It is easier to think that the fault is within yourself, that only if you were faster, smarter, better this terrible thing would not happen. It gives the illusion that it may be different in the future, if you are (impossibly) better. It is easier than living with the knowledge that you can't control it, you can't do anything to change it, and you just have to live like this. The solace of lies you tell yourself.

I'm not sure where I'm going with this observation maybe I'm in love with the sound of my own silly little thoughts. Someone smarter and more eloquent could make further connections about the locus of control and how the Stoics did not try to change it, while trauma responses simultaneously try to reduce and expand that locus as a defence mechanism. I'm sure there's some sort of philosophical or psychological implication here. I'm sure Real Academics and psychologists have already made this observation elsewhere, but it only occurred to me this afternoon.

#the duality of fran #am having a normal one folks. having a completely normal brain #went from talking abt astarion as someone who appreciates art but lacks the skill to produce it and undead as the antithesis of creation #(shout out to avas-poltergeist)#to a separate convo w someone else about my own scruples and inability to trust as trauma response #to bleed out (the song)#to then marcus aurelius and the stoics #CONNECTING THOSE DOTS.#fran how does ur mind go from these things to these other things?#honestly. idk man. i do not control the way the brain links concepts. i am just as mystified as u. i am simply. along for the ride #am i an insane navel gazer over analyzing everything? yes #is everything - psychology. art. media. music. real life. - all connected to the same themes and through lines? also yes #and im apparently incapable of not dragging these things together in tangled web #despite my inability to be eloquent or to say anything genuinely intelligent and observant #it's just rambles all the way down #honestly if youve followed me for more than like. 2 days. u know what to expect at this point

Having a real autism moment over the idea of doing fieldwork

#my brain just produced the thought 'they should have a class that teaches you how to talk to people before you go to the field'#sir i don't think anyone else needs that class. i don't think the people are clamoring for bulletpoints and flowcharts of social interactio #i'm just. i don't. i don't know how to do it #i can make friends fine when we've been in a protracted situation of working together but when i have to go out and meet people???#a thing you guys have to understand about me is that i WILL just stand and stare at people like the autism creature for 10 min straight #and then walk out of the room without saying anything more #or like i will start a conversation and then i will just Not Know What To Say #and like yeah it's social anxiety maybe but it's honestly more that i can't figure out how to have normal conversations #anyways. i am anxious i will say that #like i'm really excited too and i really want to meet cool people and work with them on developing the project #but also i am not sure how this is going to go. hmmm #maybe i should have just majored in cs and sold my soul. at least then i could be weird and off-putting in peace :')#(<- should not have done that. it is good to make attempts to be social and not put myself in a bubble)#perce rambles #this makes very little sense but you can ignore me i'm just having A Moment

i don't have the balls to talk abt this in my other blog but holy fuck am i emotional over hollow looking back at ghost at that flashback i rewatched it just now and i feel awful for what would soon happen to hollow RAAAGGGH

#in the end.this whole vessel idea is a bad idea!!! even the pale king knew this was going to fail anyways!!#every vessel had a mind to think. they all did. hollow looked back at ghost for a brief moment before walking away #the way hollow looked at pale king feeling like a proud child to please their dad #ghost can have the option to be nice to others and that immediately derails the statement that they all have no mind to think #this is all so flawed man........ and hollow is just the same as the rest. all failed experiments aND THEY STILL JUST KEPT REPRODUCING MORE #i honestly feel bad for white lady. she loves to produce more vessels - its in her “blood” to do so but #if its at the cost of witnessing many of her offspring be ditched to the abyss with no love... then it's pointless #and so she coiled herself away in shame and never interacted with pale king ever again.... they live so far away #and now white lady has no idea what's happening outside #sorry im.#yeah

Me: Oh a song I haven't listened to in a while! Why haven't I listened to this song in a hot minute?

Me: -sees the producer's name-

Me: Oh right you're the person I tried to commission for a song but you ghosted me, fed me false promises, gave me false hope, and then ghosted me again. If it wasn't for the fact I essentially gave up the money and called it a "donation", you would have basically scammed me out of my money.

Me: -bitter and annoyed- All of your songs are ruined for me now... ugh.

#I'm not naming names here because the last thing I want to do is cause drama #But yeah.#I regret just telling the artist to consider my payment as a donation in the end because trying to talk to them about the commission was #like #talking to a brick wall #I know I sent them a lot of emails but a lot of the time it was because I was commissioning the song for a friend #and I was trying to get their music tastes little by little and relaying that to the producer so I wouldn't forget #I think the “spam” scared them off the first time #but honestly when I gave them the money and they came back they were like “I'm going to give you a refund AND make you the song!!!”#I told them to keep the money (because if they were gonna make the song ofc I'd want to pay) and was like “Okay so how do we wanna do this?#and then zip. Nothing.#Ghosted again.#Idk it's really annoying and even upsetting tbh #I was so hyped for that song to be made but alas.#Sorry for the random salt I'm jsut. Annoyed.

the beatles were the taylor swift of the 1960s. this is not a compliment.

#my post #still need to find a replacement for the white album tho because i'm a completionist #what i mean is that like. i like both of these artists fine #like they're fine. they exist and they do not trigger rage the second i hear them on the radio or whatever #but best artist of our generation? really? have you listened to Any other music ever?#like i have heard the argument that the current generation doesn't like the beatles because of the remasterings on spotify #but honestly this isn't that this is a Record From The Sixties i am listening to it's not the mastering #like i think at this point i just don't think they're as good as some people think they are. they're fine they're just boring #and there's better artists (from that era even!) that i think were doing more interesting things and frankly produced better music #which you would know if you did just like. the barest of deep diving aside from what is uber popular. you know #and this is also how i feel about taylor swift. tbqfh #like she's not BAD she's a decent singer but i see people freaking out about her lyrics and i'm like. wh. this looks like they were written #by a teenager. not BAD. but best ever? lyricist of our generation? most popular singer of our generation? really?#anyway now that i've pissed off swathes of people how are your evenings going?
