…Honestly, TotK made Age of Calamity way funnier in retrospect, because the Yiga Clan plot is now a horror-comedy about Sooga and the other Yiga foundlings trying to survive their first week of sharing the apartment with Dad’s Shitty New Boyfriend.

Any story that shows Buck actually angry like in episode 3 when the co-pilot wanted to bail. The reaction from everyone since he is usually so even keel.
I've been staring at this prompt with absolute glee since it landed because I am all for Angry!Buck. But it's all just little thoughts on it, not a story idea, so let's go to the bullets:
It is a very rare occurrence, obviously. So rare, in fact, that the first time Bubbles sees Buck get actually!angry, he thinks it's a joke. Buck has a dry sense of humor. Buck getting mad about how a fellow pilot is trying to insult Bubbles for being a navigator must be a joke. Bubbles is used to good-natured ribbing about being a navigator, and no, this guy isn't being good-natured, but who cares.
But Buck cares. Buck cares a lot. It's about respecting your fellow soldier and respecting the fact that you can't do shit without a navigator, and no, it's not fun or a goof to make them think they're not important.
Yes, this is all based on things Buck felt as a child. No, he does not know that. He is a man in the 1940s. He doesn't have feelings. He has a place in his chest that hurts sometimes, and one day he will die.
Other people who make Buck ACTUAL MAD: Fuckos who don't do their goddamn jobs.
You know when Crosby slams that guy's head on the table for leaving before giving out all the chutes?
Buck wouldn't have been that physical, but he'd have been seething with the same rage. And just walked in very measured and standing tall and staring until that fucko peed a little.
But when Buck finds out Crosby got physical, he's like, "Yes. Good. You've learned well."
The thing to understand is that no one believes Buck gets MAD like that. Even if they're getting it from the person who saw it. He's too even-keeled. No way.
But once you see it, you fear causing it because the effort it takes to CAUSE it is massive.
Like, the safeties Buck has built to never, ever lose his temper (like his father) are so intricate and massive that it truly is remarkable to get around all of them.
Hell, the only reason he even got MAD at the co-pilot was because he was trying to concentrate on a plan to get them to safety, and the dude would NOT stop cutting into his thoughts.
Not that Buck wasn't upset at the guy for trying to bail. He was. But it's not what made him ANGRY. He is very understanding of being scared. But be scared quietly, would you. He is trying to make a plan over here.
One night, a set of RAF pilots decide their goal is to absolutely start shit with the Americans. And they make the very wrong choice of choosing Buck and Bucky to aim at.
If Curt were there, it'd be a lot harder. But he's not. He's gone. They lost him.
And that's the thing: Buck's anger only shows itself in the extremes, and the loss of Curt is an EXTREME. It's not that Buck didn't know it could happen. It's that it DID happen. And it HURTS. And neither he nor Bucky really know how to process that. Not that night.
So these RAF pilots start needling, and Bucky says, "Hey, fellas, not tonight, huh? Maybe we do this some other time? We're having a rough go right now."
And the RAF pilots KEEP GOING. Just talking shit. Nothing personal. They don't know Buck and Bucky. Just general "Americans took their fucking time, huh? Sure waited awhile."
In the calmest, most even voice you've ever heard, Buck just obliterates them from head to toe. How it was their prime minister who saw a politician and not a rabid dog in Hitler. How it was their prime minister who kept arguing to give Hitler just a little more land. Just one more country. How it's their fucking channel islands under occupation.
"We may have been late, boys, but at least we showed up when the threat hit our shores the first fucking time. You sat here for, what, six or seven years? Letting the wolf eat a little more and a little more of the garden? And now you can't go out there, can you? Can't go to the garden and check on your fucking potatoes for your fucking crisps? Because now the wolf thinks that garden is his. He showed his teeth over and over, and you kept thinking he was smiling. No, we didn't join you in '39, but when the Japanese bombed us in '41, we didn't fucking let them convince us they were only gonna try that once."

Saying Swiss Army Man is about gay necrophilia is like saying Oedipus Rex is about a guy who fucks his mom. You're only technically correct.

Outfit swap between two of my favorite characters!
They both go through something that changes them physically and mentally (Phoenix losing his badge and Ingo getting sent to Hisui), they both radiate middle age dad vibes despite only being in their 30s (Ingo is unconfirmed but that's my headcanon so whatever), they're both helpful to the player character of the games their in (Phoenix less so), and they both give me gender envy.
I love both of these characters so much and I love thinking about all the changes they went through and how they managed to move on and make new lives, and I really look up to them for that especially during a time when a lot is going on in my life. And sure, they can dress is raggy coats and hoodies and whatever, but they look good doing it and I wanna emulate their vibes, y'know! Anyway, just a lot of words for my self-indulgent drawing 💙🖤

The last time I got a bit drunk I started doing my dishes and messaging everyone I knew. I was having 3 conversations at once and finally accomplishing a task I'd been putting off all day. how does THAT work. I'm inventing new unique ways to be a failwoman (gender neutral)

working with a swiftie is something else. i've never been this aware of rich ass person i did not care the slightest about. every new album, every new tour, every new fucking clothing line, I not only get told about (in the normal conversation manner) but also because its been added to my calendar, the branches calendar, the calendar written out on the whiteboard, in the teams chat, in conversation at least twice a day- And there's never a break, because Taylor 'the embodiment of how having wealthy parents helps get you on the music charts' Swift is never not finding a way for her fans to give her more money so her fans are always. Talking. About. HER.
Get a new hobby. Get a better hobby that isn't shilling for a decently talented millionaire who writes nicholas sparks ass sounding lyrics. She doesn't need shilled for and I need peace from the rich lady.
Please. Please grant me peace from the rich lady.

I may be considering the crime of... Getting a business degree 🤢
#i Like my new job where i get to play in excel all day and i also like having financial security for the first time in my adult life#i was originally thinking about switching my major to sociology bc its another area that im interested in#but my mom may have talked me into considering a business degree as an option since sociology isnt a great fallback option...#the thought of majoring in business makes me gag tbh. but i mean... i DO like data analysis and there IS a masters for data analysis#and the bachelors degree in information systems would teach me new things about computers which might be cool#and they have an international business program that links in advanced study of foreign languages and cultures#and theres even a certificate program for sustainability that includes direct work with grassroots programs#AND all of this is intentionally made to be accessible to people who are already in the work field so i wouldnt need to quit my job...#...all of this plus a sociology minor (or double major if i can pull it off) is starting to look pretty good actually#BUT... can i withstand the pain of spending the next few years in classrooms full of business majors 🤔#real talk tho i was wanting to use my social work degree to go into policy anyways which could mean government OR corporate#...if i get a business major i could potentially speedrun the process of getting into corporate policy to make a difference that way#and my sociology minor (or major) would still support that#fuckin. trojan horse the companies i guess#i am rotating the idea in my mind with the emotional state of that gif of someone trying kombucha for the first time#rambling

In terms of what I've been up to lately, I'm planning on massively overhauling my bedroom (I still live with my parents and with the way the economy is going, I seriously doubt that's gonna change any time soon) because these meds have made me more aware of just how badly I need a space that suits me. I have big ideas, and hopefully this treatment stuff will help me realise them, even if it takes for fucking ever. Like, the skills I'd need to learn for this would be quite numerous I would say so yeah it's a difficult project, but a big one I can gradually work on over time with other stuff I wanna do so maybe I'll get somewhere with it. Literally, after we moved here years ago, we put wall paper on one wall and I had plans to paint the rest of the room but I did one wall, and an unfinished pegasus onto it and we did nothing else to it. Same with the rest of the house honesly. Only room that got finished was the paint in the kitchen. After all this time, the exact same off-white walls everywhere and the grey carpets have kinda killed it for all of us I think, but now that I have an actual emotional requirement for a room that's comfy, cosy, and very much me, I'm gonna see if I can change that.
Dad also says if I actually go ahead with my little dream project of putting a train track high up on the wall that goes all around the room, and it actually looks good (cause I don't do things by halves okay I will take the idea and run marathons with it), he'll let me put another one in the living room themed on the ocean. It pissed mum off because it's not something you're supposed to have in a living room, and she doesn't want any guests assuming the worst, but she's wrong. An ocean themed model railway around the room would be unique, interesting, fun, and loved by everyone worth the time of day, in my humble, totally unbiased opinion.
Speaking of mum, she's gained an interest in making the garden look nice. We were gonna work on a pond and stuff together but she's kinda just doing her own thing so I'm gonna get a bunch of Diglett and Dugtrio garden ornaments and gradually hide them around the place until she notices. She won't stop me! She's used to my shit! But I'm wondering how much I can get away with before she notices the Diglett takeover lmao
#firefly life#i just felt like making a little post#no one is outside talking to me so I dunno#a little post for anyone actually interest in what I'm up to now#I haven't actually done anything to be clear#this is why I'm on meds I have chronically awful executive dysfunction and have been unable to do basically ANYTHING in YEARS#and that's depressing you know?#but now I'm getting ideas and there's actually HOPE that I'll be able to do them!!!#so I'm feeling much more optimistic about everything now!!#it's not a cure or anything but I'm hoping this just makes it EASIER#I just want a life man and this is pretty much my only chance at that#is that an unhealthy mindset? probably.#but the NHS just send me around in circles diagnosing me with 'curable' depression and anxiety#and then having the audacity to claim they've CURED me when NOTHING has changed!!#sick of it man#you know dad decided to pay for me to go private for this? that's how sick and tired he was???#literally giving me his life savings so I have a chance at a life of my own#can you believe that?#he's a grumpy old man that's almost retired that blames every technical issue on me switching him to Firefox#and is a master of showing up exactly when you don't need him and for avoiding making decisions to an infuriating level sometimes#but fuck man#there's a lot of people in the world that WOULDN'T do that if even if they could#I'm looking into trying to do something special for his birthday and christmas and stuff cause I just#don't know how to tell him how important him doing this for me is#sure he doesn't get it like at all and has a hard time remembering anything I tell him about it unless it's the thirty fifth time#but he's doing it anyway and that's so amazing of him#I don't want him to regret this#we've already seen improvements for me but if I can have some semblance of a life again#the three of us would be overjoyed#and his hard earned money wouldn't have gone to waste
