THANK YOU. YOU GET ME FR. teruhashi is literally the kindest person ever and people misinterpreted her so bad free my girl ☹️
i left this in my inbox for a long time on accident and have no idea what the context was but yesss so true 😜 i think its really funny how people have somehow twisted "girl who knows she's gorgeous and uses that fact to her advantage, has never actually said anything mean about anyone ever" as "disgusting whore who manipulates everyone around her, secretly believes all her friends are ugly and stupid, and is genuinely completely unloveable" ☠️

For some random thoughts with shoulderholsterfreak, I was just thinking about the scene in Lesser Evil where Thrawn is sitting and staring at the sunset (a lot of symbolism, there) and talking to Quilori. What I find curious is how adeptly Thrawn maneuvers Quilori and gets him to believe his bullshit about the existence of other beings like the Magys among her people. He displays what seems to be genuine emotion and even incorporates subtle mannerisms and cues in order to “sell” his faked mental state.
You see this happen a few other times, a couple examples (among all the cosplaying he does) being his reportedly highly convincing display of devastation over the “destruction” of the CEDF ships, the scene in Chaos Rising where he pretends to lose his mind in panic shouting about pirates to get the fleet’s attention, and then yelling at the stormtrooper in the 2017 novel to get the guy to move. All this begs the question: if Thrawn is that good of an actor, what else has he faked?
I also want to know how someone who is supposedly so socially inept and seemingly so utterly clueless when it comes to politics is capable of this kind of manipulation. How is it that a man who can’t understand the machinations of his own people’s interfamilial drama can ingratiate himself to Palpatine, a dictator whose customs and culture are completely foreign to him?
Edit: there’s also the fact that the books repeatedly hint that Thrawn knows far more Basic than he lets on and you really have to wonder what that’s about, lol.

this has been on my mind for some time. through fic writing i've really come to notice how actually useful and beneficial feedback helps motivate me in writing generally. and how normal and healthy it is. i've had to really shut down the possibility of any and all feedback due to my npd, and because the feedback i was receiving previously was always "ur so amazing i wish i could write xyz like u" or "ur a god ur writing is so good" or "omg ur Actually ur muse" etc etc and as someone who, due to my mental health, relied heavily on others praise and compliments in the past because i quite literally couldn't regulate my own self-esteem ( and by setting the boundary to stop others from doing it, i've been able to gradually improve and develop this ), shit like that was actually really damaging for me to hear.
people were just outright enabling me, intentional or not. but i think it's so unfortunate i've had to outright be like "don't ever give me praise or feedback etc etc EVER" to prevent that from happening. and i think it's tragic people on tumblr can't give normal, healthy feedback. i guess this is me saying, without bombarding me, and without me actively asking for it ( i never reblog those kinds of memes ), if it ever crosses your mind when reading my writing or looking at my graphics or my metas etc, that you liked something specific i did or enjoyed something visual i made or whatever, please do let me know.
and i don't want to sound like i'm trying to control how you do this if you ever decide to, but things like "i really liked this specific thing you wrote in xyz thread / meta / headcanon etc, it was impactful and interesting to read" or "it was cool how you showed x emotion through action because that can be hard to do" are really useful, insightful and healthy. it's such a huge thing missing from the tumblr rpc. normal feedback. something i want to pursue is writing, as a career. i want to host a podcast, which involves scripts, i want to write / publish books, i enjoy entertaining others as well as myself through what i do.
i just think it's kinda tragic i have to sacrifice any and all feedback because people choose to say "ur a god, i am beneath u, ur the best at portraying x character" instead of "hey i liked how you portrayed that ptsd episode, it felt like i was living it" or "hey, how you wrote his dialogue here felt very human and real, nice one." and please know that if i notice specific things i like about your portrayal, your writing etc etc, i will let you know exactly like this and do not ever expect you to return the compliment. because that's another common thing i've encountered, either being praised in anticipation of being praised back or praising someone and them thinking they have to praise back. i like being real with people, and i like when people are real with me.

reigen spin-off thoughts, pt 2: 〜the man with a MAX spirituality level of 131〜
…so, i did not expect to find the reigen spin-off’s titular spiritual levels as hysterical as i do. i think it’s mostly how gullible every psychic reigen’s ever met turns out to be? roshuto buys into it immediately. jodo even thinks it must be real, when he sees that roshuto and reigen are both familiar with the term.
(serizawa makes no comment on the matter.)
by summer 2014 every other psychic working in ajitama prefecture is gonna introduce themselves to clients by name and spiritual level, and reigen will have no one to blame for this but himself.

✨ my sons ✨
Anyways, welcome to the Brick McArthur / Hunter propaganda blog.
(Not to mention that I put them both into ships that can be summed up as: Angsty Yellow Loner Character x Kind-Yet-Tough Green Character.)
