#not gonna list them all though

[egophiliac]

they have now revealed another character for ride kamens, hayate, and it looks like he's a kr jin homage? glad they confirmed that it's not only titular riders getting representation, but still, a pretty off the cuff surprise for me

yeah, Jin is a welcome pull, but a pretty weird one! I saw the post when it dropped (don't ask why I was looking at twitter at 3 AM) and the replies were. very confused. :') nice to see some Jin rep though! and if this opens the door to characters based on more deepcut riders, all the better!

of course, if they really want to stay true to the spirit of Jin, we know what he'll be like

#art #ride kamens #gun #(this is me still pretending like i'm not going to end up drawing all of them) #(gonna have to go back and draw saigo at some point) #i guess jin scored high in the algorithmically-generated list of characters popular with female fans #seriously though i am happy it's not going to just be main riders! the POSSIBILITIES this opens up... #in that case i'm gonna go ahead and say that one silhouette with the ponytail is absolutely gonna be brave #(which covers the ex-aid rep so i don't need to face the possibility of an ikemen poppy) #anyway hayate seems like fun! a bit of a 'what if jin was a small business owner' take which i am VERY into #i do think so far the doubleboys are my favorites #but we got two more reveals this week and many more left so we'll see if that holds! #who will tomorrow bring...

the absolutely Vivid reality based chronological dream i had last night. man

#i got a job at like... an automobile warehouse or something? #we had to change a large trucks tires... #and i was sent to get some more from across the block or whatever #and its more complicated than that - there were conversations and interactions with people etc #and i was trying to find it but it was all like... in this corridor shopping mall? #the signs were western themed and listed items that you could get in that store #though i think it was all free? #anyway at some point it opened into a restaurant and i had a friend there who was carrying a plate for people who left prematurely #so i of course started shoveling it into my mouth - free food! but their manager caught us #and i had to be all 'hey i work around here im just lookin for tires and no one was gonna eat this anyway' #it was like... a rice/mango/cream thing...? strange because i dont like mangoes! #long story short i had to go back for the tires bc i wound up forgetting them. something about a dog.... #i was too late in getting the tires so i had to go sort rubber bolts instead :/ at least the warehouse was cool #absolutely unprompted #but it was very. linear. and it felt very real. like it was genuinely a place and a job that could exist #like i remember what the outside loading area looked like. the packed restaurant. the corridor. the warehouse. the lockers. the hallway #IF I HAD A BETTER MEMORY I STG I COULD MAP IT OUT #god i love my dreams. they're always plot based and im rarely myself <3

#zangoose #lots of folks don't think about the fact that this pokémon‚ along with zoroark‚ only has like 3 fingers. two big claws and a thumb #i dunnoooo there's not a lot to say about this pokémon i feel like. i just read a bit about them and APPARENTLY it prefers to stay on #all fours and only stands up on two legs when it's angry? even though i have NEVER seen zangoose depicted on all fours #i only ever see zangoose depicted as bipedal. i think their body type on bulbapedia is even listed as bipedal #i was gonna talk about how like no evolution and a normal-type is kinda boring but like hold the phone this is happening now lemme look #yeah it's classified as bipedal with tail. “despite being classified as bipedal‚ it usually walks on all fours” THEN WHY DO WE NEVER SEE IT #there's not a single image on bulbapedia that contains a zangoose walking on all fours. this is not something that happens i am sure of it #this is a total lie i swear. if you are a zangoose reading this can you confirm whether you tend to walk on all fours. thanks

Day 1

Niki opened the door and announced his presence to his roommate, sliding his shoes off and walking over to the kitchen to put the groceries away. There wasn’t an immediate response but Niki wasn’t too phased as he thought about what he wanted to make them for dinner. Rinne was probably out doing his own errands or playing pachinko again and he’d be home for dinner like he always was. Rinne would never pass up a free meal. 

So when Niki was finishing up dinner and getting ready to plate everything, he found it strange that Rinne hadn’t shown up. Niki pulled out his phone. No new messages. His face scrunched up as he tapped out a message to Rinne asking where he was and how he better not be in trouble. Niki sighed and made his plate anyway, stomach rumbling and begging for nutrients. 

He ate his fill and wrapped up a plate of leftovers for Rinne before checking his phone again. Still nothing. He sighed and put the dishes in the sink before wandering into their shared bedroom to see if there would be any sort of hints as to where Rinne went. 

The closet and dresser were missing a set of winter clothes and Rinne’s winter boots, something he only wore when he went out foraging for food in the mountains. Then he noticed the note laying on the bed. The message was written in a hurry and read “I’ll be back tomorrow, don’t worry about me.” 

Niki crumpled the note in his hand. The nerve of that guy! Niki put on his own boots and grabbed a winter jacket before stalking out into the street, catching a taxi to the mountains. He had a vague idea of where he’d find Rinne and he was going to give him a piece of his mind, making him worry like that!

He eventually told the taxi to stop and paid the driver for their service before hopping out, seeing a set of footprints he’d know anywhere in the snow leading away from the road. Thank god it wasn’t snowing that day or Niki might never have found Rinne otherwise. He grabbed a snack from his pocket, took a bite, and started the trek to find Rinne. 

Ten minutes later, Niki was shivering and wondering just how far from the road Rinne had gone before he reached the end of the footprints at the base of a tree. He looked up to find Rinne leaning against the trunk from one of the lower branches, a can of something nursed in his bare hand red from the cold. Niki called out to Rinne and asked what was wrong, trying to get him to come down and go home. Niki even tried to promise he wouldn’t threaten to kick him out ever again if he’d just come home. 

Rinne didn’t so much as look down, giving only a grunt and an “I said I’d be home tomorrow.” Niki, out of frustration toward the man above him, kicked the tree and reached up to try and forcibly pull Rinne down. At least talk to me, what’s going on Rinne-kun, he begged. Rinne finally looked down and Niki finally saw how red and puffy his eyes were. Please, just leave me alone. I can’t do that, I promised to take care of you. 

The silence could be cut with a knife as Niki stared down Rinne until Rinne relented and climbed down from the tree. He hit the ground with a thud and pulled Niki into a hug, burying his face in Niki’s neck, mumbling something Niki couldn’t hear. Niki wrapped his arms around the other man, taking in the scent of his cologne, something he never expected to have missed as much as he did. 

Eventually, Rinne pulled away and took a final swig from his can which Niki could more clearly see as being beer now. Rinne was drunk and crying in the mountains and Niki had no idea why. Do you want to talk about it, he asked, taking Rinne’s hand in his own. Maybe when we get home. That sounds good to me, I saved you some dinner too. Rinne chuckled and his voice cracked. Niki decided not to mention it. 

They began to walk back to the road in relative silence, the only words coming from Niki on the phone calling another taxi to pick them up. Rinne remained uncharacteristically silent the whole ride home. 

By the time they got back, Rinne’s mood had thawed a little, whether that was from the warmth of the car or the alcohol in his system Niki didn’t care in that moment, just that Rinne was going back to normal. Rinne had let go of Niki’s hand when they entered the apartment as he made a beeline for their bedroom. Niki could hear him digging around for something before he came back out with a shoebox missing the lid. He set it on the coffee table and asked Niki to sit down with him. 

Niki obliged and sat next to Rinne as he began pulling objects Niki had never seen out of it, a photo with four people with striking red hair, a small locket, a clipping of hair, a brooch. Niki picked up the photo. Is this your family, he asked, voice small. Yeah, back when my mom was still alive. You said she passed when your brother was young. She did, this was taken just a few months before… 

Niki set the photo back on the table and turned to the locket, a smaller picture of the woman tucked inside, along with a photo of his brother in the other half. The hair and brooch must have been hers as well. The only things from his hometown Rinne had brought with him, things to remember his family by. 

Today’s the anniversary of her death, Rinne finally spoke again. Finally, everything clicked. He turned to face Rinne, hand on his shoulder. I’m sure she’d be proud of you, Rinne-kun. Tears began falling from Rinne’s eyes again as he turned to embrace Niki in a bear hug, so tight that Niki almost couldn’t breathe until he lightened up again. Thanks for…listening, Niki, I really appreciate it. 

Niki couldn’t tell if he simply imagined it, but as the two of them sat embraced on the couch in his apartment, he felt a third presence settle in with them, pulling them both in for a comforting embrace.

[cerise-on-top]

saw you write for madness so i’m new! if its alright could i req sanford and deimos comforting their s/o after a breakdown?

if i req again i’ll probably be ⚡️ anon if it’s not taken. tysm + love ur writing!

Hey there! Yes you can! I hope I did the request justice! And no, I don't think that emoji is taken yet!

Sanford and Deimos Comforting Their S/O After a Breakdown

Sanford: The moment he sees you crying he’s rushing over to you to aid you in any way he can, crouching down to seem less intimidating and putting a hand on your shoulder to show you he’s there for you. He’s going to ask you a rushed and concerned “What’s wrong?” before intently listening to anything you have to say. Sanford will likely pull you into a tight hug. It won’t be crushing, he’ll actively try to be more gentle than that, but it will be tight enough for some air to leave your lungs. If you’re about to fall apart then he’ll hold you together. Although he knows that the worst of the worst might be over already, he’ll still hold you tight and be quiet for a moment, hoping that that will help you at least a little bit. Sanford isn’t one for distractions if he knows he can help you, so he’ll ask you what’s wrong and how he may be able to help you in that moment. If he’s unable to help you in any way shape or form he might feel as though he’s failed you if it’s particularly bad, but if you just need some cheering up then he’ll try. He’s very big on cuddling, so he’d love to hold you and cheer you up like that, if you allow it. However, if you’re not big on physical touch or just don’t want to be touched too much in that moment, then, once it’s not as obvious anymore that you broke down, he’ll go on a walk with you. The scenery may not be particularly nice, but it’s better than sitting around and doing nothing. He can be rather chatty, plus he’s a trustworthy guy, so you can tell him about anything you need to get off your chest. He’ll listen, he’ll give you advice, he’ll seek out revenge for you, anything you need. Will even cook a homemade meal for you if it cheers you up, and he’s a pretty good cook.

Deimos: He, too, will rush to your side and ask you what happened, if you need anything and if he can help you. Deimos’ approach to helping you consists of cheering you up by distracting you. He knows a few good jokes he can crack that might get you to smile, but he’s not opposed to listening to you either if you need it. Doesn’t have too much good advice to give that isn’t needlessly violent or chaotic, so you’re better off going to Sanford for that one. However, he’ll do what he can to get you to smile again. Hell, if you want, he’ll pay for some fast food as well. Fast food is always good and appropriate in his eyes, so why wouldn’t it be for you? Some good food always cheers him up when he’s upset, might work for you as well. He’s not the best with words in more dire situations, but he tries, although he really won’t know what to say. Yes, he prefers listening in those situations, even if he can be a real chatterbox otherwise. If his jokes don’t get you to smile, then his brain short circuits and he goes quiet. He actually goes more serious then as well. You can then proceed to talk to him about all that serious stuff and he’ll respond honestly. Might even open up about some of his own struggles to show you you’re not alone, that he can relate to you, if your struggles are similar. He’s really not trying to diminish your struggles, just wants to show you he cares. You will likely end up with an impromptu therapy session together where you both talk about your issues, but you will likely grow closer as a result. If he knows you’re okay with it, then he’ll wrap his arm around your shoulder and pull you closer to him so that your head rests on his shoulder. You should really rest up for the day, he’ll make sure that tomorrow is a brighter, nicer place for you.

so i ranked some rezero ships based on how their breakup would go

#IM SO SORRY FOR THE ‘at least one of them dies’ TIER WODNSNS #rem and fred are only in clean breakup bc i think itd just kinda fizzle out itd just be like ‘i no longer feel we should be dating. ok cool’ #fred and ram are at the VERY TOP bc of how their entire friend group (emilia camp) is also gonna react. the teas gonna be so spilled HAH #otto and ram mainly being in the divorcee category says so much. #and OKAY otto is like….. his only clean healthy breakups are gonna be with fred or marone. if its anyone else then ottos gonna like #getting drunk and then immediately giving unhinged rants about it. #its all over once i write that otto-reinhard rarepair analysis man. #julius ships being in the bottom half of the tier list only… unproblematic king. #i DO think felix crusch would be clean breakup bc they want whats best for each other ultimately. if they ever did officially get together #and then break up. #theyd probs get back together though. #rezero #so sorry to the person who made this tier list if youre seeing this. this is what im using it for HAH

[crehador]

cool cool cool... despite my VERY best efforts to cut down on series for spring season (there are Many more on a 'maybe' list on the side) i am up to 16 on planning already...... not counting anything that's rolling over from this season lmao (which'll be sengoku youko, dunmesh, and i'm guessing metallic rouge)

it's definitely gonna be a 20+ show season again lol

BUT looking good! EXTREMELY YURIFUL!!! with not only yuru camp and hibike both coming back for an s3 but SASAKOI AS WELL

plus the omegavers anime is. coming. lmao. i'm still surprised this is a series and not an ova or movie because i honestly don't remember the manga being that long? (maybe it kept going and i just haven't read the whole thing, looking forward to it regardless)

definitely most intrigued by wind breaker with the smic lovechild looking mfer lmao (whose figure is still open for preorder on amiami... hopefully i'll get a chance to decide if i want it before it disappears)

but also very eyes emoji at sasakoi and the karasu one, and the one about the deaged old couple looks like it could be really cute too.........

#crab watches #spring 2024 #yeargh this season's gonna be beefy #(i say as though they aren't always) #oh how i yearn for the days when i never watched anything ongoing ever lmao #there are a buuunch of others that i'll probably check out at least one episode of #if i added them all it would've been too much orz #so this for now. but. list will probably grow

I just want good things for all the Katmai bears. I hope they get lots of good salmon and fulfilling courtships and healthy cubs. I hope they have pleasant days and cozy nights and get to look at lots of pretty sunsets and all have long happy lives full of wonderful bear joy 💞💞💞💞

#every time i watch the bearcam i come away just so full of love 💗💗💗💗💗💗 #they are all so so good! #and they deserve good things! #I'm not gonna list them by name bc I don't want to leave anybody out and even though I have my favorites #i really and truly want good things for every single katmai bear. all of them. #my beloveds #pontifications and creations #bears

My ass is in need of a desperate thing to do bc I finished big o and I feel empty despite REALLY LIKING IT it’s just because my ass hardly has any motivation to write or draw all I can do is just play video games even if I’m not even touching new ones I keep replaying the same comfort games but my main options on my to watch list are:

-reasonable length of 24 episodes but it’s apparently super fucking depressing and everyone advises I don’t watch it despite it being in my reader for awhile (casshern sins)

-even more reasonable length of 12 episodes and is more toku stuff but I’ve seen no one talk about it (guyver)

-the most reasonable length of 7 episodes- but all of them are nearly a hour so how the fuck does that keep my attention span (giant robo)

-not at all reasonable length for me because it’s 50 episodes so I should wait until I’ve watched more 20 ep anime and see I can get through a 40 ep anime but I think about it anyways (Astro boy/cyborg 009, ignore how this is two)

I should probably just make a poll about this but my tumblr polls don’t get a lot of traction and Twitter I’m scared if I end up chickening out bc I’ve done this with- a lot of polls which is also reasonable I don’t wanna make one 💀 might just ask friend opinion but if anyone knows any of these feel free to drop something in the comments.

#meg text #I’m not gonna be bothered to tag all of them when this is a list thing #but am I the definition of indecisive? You bet your fucking ass #also I would’ve added tetsujin here but imma wait until after I watch giant robo #given I know it’s the same creator + Imagawa did a take of it that’s 24 eps #even though the one I saw of where he looks like a super robot and is cel animation looks sick as fuck #but I can always watch multiple iterations of a show (I did that with getter lmao) #I could also theoretically do that with casshern bc there’s a even shorter show #but I heard from my bf it’s not good rip #also for the last two it’s their 2000s versions specifically if anyone asks #if I end up being so indecisive I may like- either pick up something I drop or fucking read #but I’m not counting on the latter bc I literally hate reading seen in other post even if I need to get over it

Having lost my cat, my uncle, my great grandmother, my grandma's best friend (& one of the people who helped raise me), AND my dad all within the span of 9 months,

I have little sympathy for people who use deaths as an excuse to be an asshole. I get it, it sucks. Get the fuck over it. Your grief is not an excuse to treat others like shit. What the fuck.

#speculation nation #this isnt anything personal. im just reacting to a post that kind of pissed me off. #to be fair i was never close with my great grandmother so im not particularly broken up about that one #but it's still yet another death in the family within such a short period of time. #my cat is on this list bc he was the first one and it majorly fucked me up. so yeah it deserves to be here. #the others. well. my grandma's best friend makes me sad but at least she was getting up in years #my uncle and dad though. especially my dad. yea those have fucked me up the most. #im never gonna be the same after experiencing all of this in such short succession. #it sucks in a major way. and things are still continuously tumultuous. #but you dont see me lording it over people and using it as an excuse to be an asshole. #maybe i make people uncomfortable with how casually i mention it. but like whatever. it's simply my truth. #that's still just like. me just talking about what ive been up to. that kind of thing. #idk acting like someone needs to be treated with the most tender of touches after experiencing a major death #to the point where you cant even tell them when theyre being a manipulative little asshole? #i dont fucking think so! #yeah okay all grief hits different but ive pulled myself up by the bootstraps and kept my head on straight #even after i experienced death after death after death after death after Fucking Death #whats your excuse? youre Sad? we all fucking are. thats just life. #it's horrible and awful and it sucks that we have to live with this but you CANT let that affect how you treat other people!!!!! #and here i am making my own post venting about it instead of replying to the aita post that sparked this #bc the person the post was about just made me so angry to hear about. #but i am... a reasonable adult who separates themselves from situations before reacting in anger... #and so im making a tumblr post to get the emotions out instead of getting emotional at random strangers lol #anyways i actually had a pretty good day today. but in the way of grief. the smallest things can trigger moods sometimes. #but i am letting the emotions flow... here they are... i have expressed them... and i shall now release them... amen... #negative/ #i guess lol. i sure did rant enough for it.

[queen0funova]

The other day I had someone say they thought it sounded like I would be happier focusing on writing instead of coding (they're not really wrong but we're not getting into that)

I mentioned the comment to my dad yesterday and he responded with something that really pissed me off: "Well writing is going to become pretty obsolete soon thanks to AI like Chat GPT"

First of all, GPT is a stupid idiot. It can't even write a poem that doesn't rhyme when specifically directed to do so, or when it's told to remove the rhyme after failing to write a free verse poem in the first place.

It's never going to top human creativity. It won't make a rant about romantic attraction wrapped in a prayer to frozen yogurt. It won't pull off Amphibia's Rube Goldberg machine of Chekov's guns. It won't do a good job telling the story of a Latina, neurodivergent, bisexual girl. These are all human things that humans will do better than the stupid AI. I'm tired of people having more faith in Chat GPT than other people

#That frozen yogurt example is a real thing I wrote #I don't think I'm gonna share it though #at least not right now #Also Dad is next on the list of family members I'm gonna bitch about in a poem #I already have ones where I get angry with my mom or sisters or one particular cousin #dumb stupid ai #Chat GPT #AI #writing #rant #amphibia #the owl house #It sometimes feels like my parents don't have much interest in me the human #One thing that I saw quite a bit over the last few months was people on CS discords saying they didn't understand a certain problem #someone else would then respond suggesting Chat GPT but warn them that it WILL be wrong but it's a 'good place to start' #I personally believe if it's wrong then that's actually a very very bad place to start and you should stop suggesting it #If I'm desperate enough to be asking idiot-incapable-of-freeverse AI for help I'm doing something very wrong #That's all just my two cents though idk #I'm just frustrated

Given the domination of the original generation in the bracket (rip Mamasé, you will be missed), I was thinking it might be fun to do separate brackets for the other 3 generations, so that those songs also get a chance to shine. These would be much smaller but probably otherwise have a similar form

(I’m gonna need at least 10 people to say yes (or other) before I’ll do that because you can’t draw conclusions based on 3 votes)

#k3 #best k3 song bracket #polls #the effort is gonna be much less for me though because I already have a list of all songs and got pictures I could use for them #so that’s why I think it might be fun #wouldn’t do another one of this scale from scratch #128 songs is a bit much

[somestarstuff]

I can't find the post but to whichever of yall said normal oak fits the song love me normally: how dare you I've had the song on repeat for the past day now and have had several revelations about why I'm so attached to normal oak

#dont mind me just staring at the wall and thinking about normal things #ive decided to like this song a normal amount but also?? #very possible this is gonna be my number one spotify song and the wrapped list is coming out in less than a month soooo #rambling #dndads #dungeons and daddies #seriously though prior to this i was like i dont feel strongly towards any of the characters i like them all #WRONG now its all about normal oak and ok fine maybe also lark
