Anyone have any boring movie/show recommendations for things that take place between 1900-1930, she asked inconspicuously, not at all seeking out Ralph-related background noise?

(I'm not generally a big fan of this time period, so I've kinda just been alternating between Timewasters itself and old Disney movies. Looking to switch it up, but not to something I'm actually gonna get sucked into. Just something to keep the old time-y vibe going during The Ralphing Hours.)

#thoughts of despair #if you thought of something that came out after 1980 when i said 'old disney movies' then you are too young to be here #please see yourself out

IS ANYONE ELSE FEELING KIND TODAY!!! IS ANYONE ELSE FEELING GENEROUS TOWARDS OTHER PEOPLE!!! IS ANYBODY ELSE BEING KIND AND TRYING TO UNDERSTAND EVEN WHEN ITS HARD!!! IS ANYONE ELSE ASSUMING THE BEST OF OTHERS INTENTIONS AND RESPONDING IN KIND!!!! CAN ANYONE HEAR ME

#having a day ^_^ #I love being kind I just wish other people loved being kind more #people on the internet are SO FUCKING MEAN TO EACH OTHER???? its a terrible phenomenon #I have never seen people in real life treat others badly with the horrifying proportion of hate I see online #please. try to be kinder try to be more patient even when its frustrating #I have changed minds and deescalated arguments SO many times by being kind. #if someone is spouting misinfo in a furious rage and they're saying hurtful things? try responding with patience and kindness #even when you don't feel they deserve it. because one of 2 things usually happens #EITHER. they immediately shift their tone because you're talking to them like an equal and not an idiot #OR they continue to be horrible and it makes them look really nasty. its not a good look!! most people won't do the second thing!! #hateful online arguments has turned my mental health into a disgusting stew in the past #since I started being kind out of sheer frustration my mental health has improved a thousandfold #listen. sometimes its okay to be mean. if someone tells you to kill yourself I dont think its appropriate to give them patience and kindnes #BUT. if you treat someone like they're stupid. even if you're right!!! they won't listen to you or consider your words!! #because admitting you're right means admitting that they're stupid like you think they are. that feels bad so people won't do it #my wisdom. today I am so tired

Your life isn't a to-do list. You're allowed to exist, to take life as slow as you'd like. The dreams you have won't suddenly disappear. It's okay to stop and smell the roses, or to engage with "childish" things, or to recover, or do what you need to.

Zelda Darlington

Cue your wide eyed protagonist with a tendency to ignore everything around her in favor of getting lost in her own mind. Bonus points for an added dash of innocence, preoccupation with love, and the seemingly unexplainable ability to charm everyone around her despite how utterly distracted by her own thoughts she always seems to be.

Antoine Duplanchier

Did someone order a too-moody-for his-own-good I can fix him love interest? Does he have a tragic backstory and a penchant for withholding his emotions until he explodes on those he loves most? But then he professes his loyalty with grand gestures and declarations of eternal love? Well do I have the story for you…

Josephine Duplanchier

Does your wide eyed protagonist need a bitchy sidekick? Does she have a penchant for manipulating everyone around her but the audience can't help but love her anyway? One thing is for sure, someone’s heart is getting broken, and she’s going to make damn sure it isn’t her own.

Giorgio Mistretta

The internet has officially decreed that Giorgio is the fuck-boy love interest who's too attractive for his own good. Meanwhile his girlfriend bosses him around and he swears he doesn’t like it, even though it’s pretty obvious he does. He has a habit of making really stupid choices; but he did it all for love, right? Right?!

an argument with my friend yesterday made me want to give a little reminder. i mentioned that there were no white-based people in avatar, he disagreed, and listed the characters with paler skin as his ‘proof’. i lectured him and now he knows better but still;

people with pale skin aren’t always white, none of the characters in avatar are based off of the white race. Aang isn’t white, neither is Zuko, or Mai, or Ty lee, or azula, or anyone in the franchise. of course, the Inuit based characters are definitely not white either, but what bothered me was the subtle prejudice that made my friend think pale skin=white.

i know this fandom has issues with racism, and it’s been addressed, but this interaction really reminded me of how small misconceptions can make a jarring difference, so I’ll say it again.

none of the characters in avatar are based on white people.

#atla #fandom rant #sofia speaks about herself #look I know this is quite aggressive for me normally but uhh #this really irritated me? #oh and if anyone mentions the swamp benders uhhh #dude idk if they’re white and if so 👍 #anyway #please check yourself for subtle prejudice #and call someone out if you see them displaying it (if it’s appropriate)

fauci saying “vulnerable people will fall by the wayside” and that some will die but that’s ok because we’re not going to see the “tsunami of cases” we’ve seen before is so dehumanising. so babies with no immune system, elderly people, disabled people, and people without adequate access to healthcare can all die of covid. but it’s ok guys because actually they’re just falling to the wayside and everyone else will go back to normal and be fine (sarcasm).

my death or the deaths of my family or friends wouldn’t be us “falling by the wayside”, it would be us being failed by our government, healthcare systems, and communities who have refused to take coronavirus seriously despite mounting anecdotal and scientific evidence of the harm this virus does. fact that people can accept the deaths of vulnerable groups just because they want to eat in a restaurant or don’t want to wear a mask is horrifying

#yall can reblog this #for those of you touting community care or progressive values or allyship to marginalised communities #i better see y’all masking #it goes without saying that if you can’t mask then my saying mask up does not apply to you #but for the people who can mask please do so to protect yourself and others #masking up also protects people who aren’t able to mask #I’m just so tired of being told that death to a virus that is preventable via masking and air filtration and proper testing availability to #prevent spread by allowing people to stop their chain of transmission #is just. fine. like all these people will die and apparently that’s fine and actually a great thing #also. with one or two covid infections formerly healthy people enter vulnerable groups. because the studies coming out right now and #what we know about long term sars1 effects (because covid is not a cold or flu. it’s sars2. it’s severe accuse respiratory syndrome) #are showing that the long term effects on the bodies of people who have had covid will be disasterous #and if covid had been properly felt with then maybe only some people would be facing that reality. but the amount of people who have been #infected not just once but multiple times. with some people having close to double digit numbers of infections. means that the amount of #people looking at sars2 long term symptoms could be quite a large group #coronavirus #my post

'If you're doom scrolling this tag-' shut up. Get out of the tag that you, yourself detest, block it, and move on. You're helping nobody with these corny ass posts; if anything you're exposing yourself to the very thing you hate. You're triggering yourself. And if you doom scroll, get out of the tag and block it. It's that simple.

#yes this is about radqueer tags #reminder that you can be anti rq without infiltrating their spaces and breaking your own DNI #I only know you people do this shit because I find myself on RQ tags from time to time. #no not by 'doomscrolling' but out of boredom and curiosity #and what do I see? multiple 'stop doomscrolling! take care of urself! úwù' posts💀 #stop exposing yourself to things that actually harm you. stop it with the savior complex #You aren't a baby that needs their hand held either.

I would kill for figurines or keychains of the tinies . Especially tiny Chuuya

would there be like, actual interest for stuff like that? It's not something I've ever done myself (though I know people who have) and that would be a lot of stuff to research, that's a lot of time and effort, so first of all I need to know if there would be actual interest

Would you buy bsd merch I designed? (stuff like a sticker sheet or a small acrylic charm)

Answer truthfully please think of my time and sanity!! I appreciate you no matter your answer and I'm still gonna be here anyway. I just need to know if this is worth putting in the effort looking into

Also feel free to say your opinions, concerns or alternative ideas in replies/reblogs/asks I'm actually asking for this

#yeah the first option is because i know many of you feel bad and say yes just to be nice and while i see and feel you #i do ACTUALLY need to know an approximation of how many people actually would spend actual money on this #think of my time and sanity please and thank you 🙏 #bsd #bungou stray dogs #bungo stray dogs #bsd fanart #tiny skk adventures #dazai goosamu #why not at this point #ask answered #not art #nawy's polls #figurines are obviously way too pricy I wouldn't even know where to start BUT i *am* a 3d artist so in theory i could make something #for printing but then it's pricy to print and ship and it wouldn't be in colors. so. bad idea. let's keep it to flat stuff to mail. #a very cheap alternative could be files to print out yourself but i doubt this would scratch the itch you're clearly feeling #stickers i feel might be the middle ground here

Getting real sick of a certain subset of Destiny players complaining that it’s a baby game and crying to Bungie to nerf exotics and abilities when their ENTIRE POINT IS TO BE STRONG in specific ways as if they are being locked into using them.

IF YOU WANT AN EXTRA CHALLENGE STOP BEING SUCH A DPS GOBLIN AND JUST EQUIP SOMETHING THATS NOT TOP TIER META AND STOP COMPLAINING JESUS FUCKING CHRIST

MOOD. Go off.

It's incredibly annoying to me. They always use the argument of "the game should FORCE me to do things, I should not SELF-IMPOSE challenges." And like. ? I'm sorry but what? It's a video game for a big audience, it's here to be playable and accessible to the widest possible playerbase. There are plenty of ways to make the game difficult for yourself, so knock yourself out if that's your thing, but don't force others into it.

Like, I enjoy hard content, I regularly at least attempt day 1 raids, I do master raids, GMs, solo and solo flawless content and all that. But only when I want to. Sometimes I don't and I don't want to suffer in a patrol zone or struggle in a seasonal activity I'm doing for the story. The majority of the players don't want that. Designing games for the professional gamers only has NEVER been a good idea and never will be. Fifty streamers can't sustain a video game. It needs casual players who will want to come back to the game instead of feeling defeated.

One of the reasons I really enjoy helping others is because I know that casual players tend to struggle in stuff that's basic activity for me. I've seen people unable to get through a strike. I've sat for 10 minutes rezing someone who couldn't do the jump in a seasonal activity. I want those people to be able to play basic content without feeling frustrated and I want them to know that there are people out there who will help them out.

And this doesn't apply just to basic content, although it should start with that. I think all dungeons and raids and everything should be things that all players can complete. Fine, doing a master raid with all challenges should be tough, but it should be achievable with time and practice, not impossible. What a lot of these "pros" want is just completely divorced from reality.

It takes days and days of practice every time a new master raid is out for me and my team (all with thousands of hours of playtime) to get comfortable to finally finish it. We're far from casual players and it still takes a lot of time to be able to finish hard content. Making it even harder is insane to me. Like, if something is so hard that my team full of people, each with 5000+ hours of playtime and a coordinated team that's been raiding together for years now can't finish it, that means it's absolutely impossible for probably 90% of the playerbase. That's wild to me. Raids and GMs should have more people playing them. If master raids are too easy for you, Mr. I-Play-Destiny-For-A-Living, that's on you buddy. Unequip the super god tier god roll meta guns and loadouts or play something else.

And ofc, another excuse they make is "if I don't use meta, I am not going to win a raid race!" Then don't. Idk. Let me play you the tiniest violin. This affects literally nobody except a grand total of 50 people. Run your meta in day 1, and play with random shit otherwise. Play raids with all white weapons. Play without mods. Play without a HUD. Do things solo only. I don't know, make up a way to spice things up for yourself. I'm not interested in that and neither are 99% of the players out there. The game is genuinely hard enough for the majority of the players. On top of that, I am here to feel like a powerful space fantasy superhero. I am NOT here to die to dregs in patrol zones. If there's ONE thing that I know for a fact that put people off from Lightfall (as in this year of Destiny), it's the difficulty changes. They're annoying, frustrating and for some a barrier to entry more than anything else.

[uncanny-tranny]

Realizing you can never please anybody can be a devastating loss... until you internalize exactly what that means.

When you sacrifice so much of yourself for others, you forget that you leave yourself behind. Not being able to please everybody means you can start learning how to fully embody who you are instead of juggling everybody else's baggage, trying to make something work out.

You might feel devastated about this, thinking you're terrible for not pleasing everybody. The truth is, it was impossible from the start, and learning who you are is infinitely rewarding

#mental health #encouragement #encouraging words #people-pleasing is honestly (in my experience) the most soul-crushing things out there #and i wish more and more people could learn how to let go of the impulse to self-persecute... #...and to let go of the idea that literally the *entire world* comes before them #i think the thing that really set me on this path was realizing that few people would do what i did... #...that they would see that nobody is fighting their corning *including them*... #...and that few people will actually fight your corner *for* you... #...and part of that realization enraged me because it's like... everybody abandons you INCLUDING yourself... #...so you think 'how the fuck didn't i realize that?' and you start to question more and more the reasons you internalized the message... #...that literally everybody matters more than you ever will... #...part of that for me stems from deep systematic abuse and part of it is cultural... #...so you'll find that your drives to do certain things have differwnt influences and some are perfectly fine... #...while others are destroying and depressing and horrific
