For anyone in the Lego Monkie Kid and Ninjago community, if you guys draw the human characters with yellow skin and no Lego traits of some kind...

Please Stop.

To depict Asians with yellow skin is actually being racist as it was used as a racial slur under the same reason why white folk call black folk the N-word. For anyone who didn't know and done this without knowing, this should help you. If people who do know and still do this then you got some problems.

Power Instinct Songs Ranked by Me (Part 4 of 8)

50. Tokimeki Overclock (Matrimelee/Bonnou Kaihou)

I have to admit, this is pretty catchy. Catchy enough to make it to B-tier.

49. Kechabian 3/4 (Gogetsuji Legends)

Kechabian, but in 3/4 time. Would've ranked lower if I weren't so biased for Gogetsuji Legends.

48. Ichigeki Jikkon Shou Kikku Setsu (Power Instinct)

(Nothing on YouTube for the bonus stage theme? For shame, YouTube!)

Anyways, this is kind of a fun little tune. Not much to say about it, though.

47. Jinsei Hitoritabi (Gouketsuji Ichizoku Matsuri Senzo Kuyou)

It's a beautiful song, but I'm so used to the older, instrumental versions that I had to put it here. But I like it, I really do.

46. Namida no... (Gouketsuji Ichizoku Matsuri Senzo Kuyou)

I guess the same can be said about this song, too.

45. Let's Go! Onmyoji ji ji ji (Gouketsuji Ichizoku Matsuri Senzo Kuyou)

You'd think that a mashup of Thin Nen's two best themes would be even better, but... not quite I guess. Still pretty cool, though!

44. Eiyuu ni Naritai (Gouketsuji Ichizoku Matsuri Senzo Kuyou)

I have to admit, Senzo Kuyou's music is a lot better than I give it credit for. This is definitely leagues better than the original Power Instinct version! But uh... yeah. Still like the other versions of this song better, though.

43. Shinobi Ai Gouketsuji (Matrimelee/Bonnou Kaihou)

Probably the best lovey-dovey song in the series yet. It must be the electric guitars. And the lyrics.

42. Chiisana Shiawase (Matrimelee/Bonnou Kaihou)

This song amuses me, because despite the sad melody, it's ultimately about a woman who overreacts when a waitress tries to take her plate away before she could finish her fries. I consider myself to be a feminist, yet I still find it funny. Maybe it would still be funny if the singer was a man.

41. Seishun no Kakugei (Matrimelee/Bonnou Kaihou)

It's a song about fighting games and friendship. Now that's a song for me! Besides, y'know, Subarashiki Internet. Seishun no Kakugei is better, though.

By the way, I got the audio files from KHInsider, which is really good for video game MP3s. Plus, it's safe!

Halfway there!

you have to go to work so you can pay for your doctor, who is not taking your insurance right now, and if you say i can't afford the doctor's you are told - get a better job. it is very sad that you are unwell, yes, but maybe you should have thought about that before not having a better job.

(where is the better job? who is giving out these better jobs? you are sick, you are hurting - how the hell are you supposed to be well enough for this better job?)

but you go to the doctor because you had the nerve to be hurt or sick or whatever else. and they tell you that it is because you have anxiety. you try your best. you are a self-advocate. you've done the reading (which sometimes pisses them off worse, honestly). you say it is actually adding to my anxiety, it is effecting my quality of life. so they say that you are fat. they say that all young people have this happen to them, isn't it a medical marvel! they say that you should eat more vegetables. they say that you probably just need to lose a little more weight, and that you are faking it for attention.

(what attention could this doctor possibly give? what validation? that's their fucking job, isn't it?)

there is always a hypochondriac, right. someone always tells you about a hypochondriac. or someone who is unnecessarily aggressive during the worst days of their life. or someone looking "for a quick fix". or some idiot who wasn't educated about how to properly care for themselves who just abandons their treatment. and again, the hypochondriac, the overly-cautious hysteric. these people don't deserve to be treated like humans (right), and since you might be one of these people, you also don't get treated like a human. because those people can really fuck with the system, you now have to pay for it. and besides. you're actually probably faking it.

(more often than not, you find a 2:1 ratio of these stories. for every "hypochondriac", there are 2 people who knew something was wrong, and yet nobody could fucking find it. the story often ends with pointless suffering. the story often ends with and now it's too late, and it's going to kill me.)

you are actually just making excuses. someone else got that procedure or that diagnosis and he's fine, you should be fine too. someone else said they watched a documentary about other inspirational people with your exact same condition, maybe you should be inspirational, too. you're just too morbid. your pain and your experience is probably just not statistically concerning. it is all self-reported anyway, and you're just being a baby.

(once, while sitting down in the middle of making coffee, you had the sudden, horrible thought - i could kill myself to make the pain stop. you had to call your best friend after that. had to pet your dog. had to cry about it in the shower. you won't, but that moment - god, fuck. the pain just goes on and on.)

you know someone who went in for routine surgery and said i still feel everything. they told her to just relax. it took her kicking and screaming before they figured out she wasn't lying - the anesthetic drip hadn't been working. you know someone who went in for severe migraines who was told drink water and lose weight. you know someone who was actively bleeding out and throwing up in the ER and was told you're just having a bad period.

in the ER there are always these little posters saying things like "don't wait! get checked today!" and you think about how often you do wait. how often the days spool out. you once waited a full week before seeing the doctor for what you thought was a sprained wrist. it had actually been broken - they had to rebreak it to set it.

but you go into the doctor. the problem you're having is immediate. the person behind the counter frowns and says we're not taking your insurance. you will be paying for this out-of-pocket.

they send you home with tylenol and a little health packet about weight loss or anxiety or attention deficit. on the front it has your birthday and diagnosis. you think about crying, and the words swim. it might as well say go fuck yourself. it might as well say you're a fucking idiot. it might as well say light your money on fire and lie down in it. and the entire fucking time - the problem persists.

it's okay. it's okay, it's just another thing, you think. it's just another thing i have to learn to live with.

#spilled ink #warm up #can you tell what i'm mad about today specifically #i will say that there are a LOT of things that go into this. like a lot. this is ungendered and unspecific for a reason #it isn't just sexism. it's also racism. and ableism. and honestly classism. #and before a healthcare professional reads this as a personal attack: i understand ur burnt out #we are ALSO burnt out. your situation is also dire. this is not an attack on you. #this is a commentary on the incredible amounts of bigotry that lie at the heart of capitalism #where people have to pay money out of pocket to be told to fuck off. #your job is important. so is our humanity. and if you cannot accept that people are fucking mad as hell #at the industry - you are probably not listening . #anyway at some point im gonna write a piece about sexism specifically in medical shit #but i don't want terfs clowning in it bc they can't understand nuance #> it is true that ppl w/a uterus are more likely to experience medical malpractice & dismissal globally #> it is also true that trans people experience an equally fucked up and bad time in the medical field #> great news! the medical industrial complex is an equal opportunity life ruiner :) #(if you find it necessary to go into a debate about biology while discussing medical malpractice #i want to warn you that you're misunderstanding the issue. because guess what. #cis MEN might experience this. particularly black men. particularly disabled men. #so YES having a uterus can lead to more trouble for you. but this happens a LOT. #instead of fighting those ALSO experiencing your pain.... try working WITH them. #which btw. is like. actual feminism.)

suicide cw

look i have been in this area before mentally. it sucks and i wouldn’t wish this on anyone. but, and this is going to sound callous, but i don’t feel any sympathy for james somerton. even if i hope he’s like. not dead. But thats all the amount of goodwill im willing to give him. The more i think about this really, the more angry i am. 

ngl this entire situation is another example of how white people weaponize their mental illness to avoid consequences. Im seeing it in real time.

this man has a continuous habit of using self-harm as a get-out-of-jail-for-free card. in both of his apologies, he has worded his supposed attempts in ways that were clearly meant to guilt people who displayed his plagiarism and overall horrendous history of racism and misogyny. i say supposed because, while i’m not saying those are lies and this would he such a fucked up thing to lie about that i don’t want to think he has, unfortunately, it’s been proven again and again that his word can’t be trusted, as he’s known to lie to try get out of consequences. Hes a proven liar. him lying about this is actually the best case scenario, because no one should go through this entire situation, wouldnt wish this on anyone, but you can only do this so often before people stop sympathizing with you. is this callous? Yeah, but like. I’m actually fucking angry he cant straight up take no as an answer. that this is how he reacts realizing he cant be one of the Cool Kidz™️ on youtube anymore. he acts like he DESERVES a career, like its not a privilege hes lost due to his own actions.

He lied about apologizing and forgiving people, he lied about giving the money to hbomberguy to give to ppl he ripped off (yknow, instead of doing it himself), he lied about the jessie gender situation and rewrote the narrative to make it so he isnt the bad guy, and hes the victim all along actually!

you can’t tell me that supposed last message of his isn’t meant to be a 13 reasons why esq attempt to deflect the blame “look i’m going to kill myself and it’s all YOUR PEOPLES FAULT for not letting me achieve my DREAM of being filmmaker IN PEACE!!! I just wanted Nick’s (the guy who I have thrown under the bus again and again) portfolio up!! Im just being a good friend dont you all FEEL BAD” he refuses to take ANY ACCOUNTABILITY of any of his actions and he IS STILL trying to shove the blame over to other people again.

it’s also pretty ironic people are like “uhhh well hbomber’s fans harassed him!!!” like hbomber outright told people NOT to HARASS JAMES!!! ALSO acting as if james doesn’t have a very real documented history of STRAIGHT UP sending his fans to harass and threaten smaller creators, more notably women, trans, and bipoc creators. especially after he’s stolen typically very personal anecdotes so he could profit from them. so why can he do it but the second people are like “hey this guys an actual piece of shit.” and he can’t handle it suddenly people are trying to white knight his shit? like no he doesn’t get that. he doesn’t get that at all just because he couldn’t handle the consequences of his actions. 

what? were supposed to stay quiet about a man profiting off of other minorities because he wanted to be the spokesman for all gay people? people tried to solve this on a smaller, more private scales for YEARS and he kept doing it. it was clear that the giant public video was the ONLY way to get people to notice. HE WOULDVE GOTTEN AWAY WITH STEALING 87 FUCKING THOUSANDS WORTH OF DOLLARS. HE CANT HANDLE THE FACT HE CANT GET AWAY WITH IT. 

am i supposed to feel bad for the guy who basically threatened a trans woman with the police? i don’t care what anyone says, it’s so fucking obvious that he threatened jessie by implying he was getting the police involved in their conflict. what am i supposed to act like that didn’t happen? are we supposed to pretend like he didn’t glorify nazi’s and outright said that gay people made up a good chunk of the nazis? That he didnt say america joined ww2 bc they were jealous of the NAZIS. WHAT WOULD POSSESS YOU TO FUCKING SAY THAT. but then? He gives women (not even women most of the time, he misgenders nonbinary ppl constantly) shit for writing mlm. are we supposed to act like he doesn’t straight-up sees himself superior and better than people of color and steals their works to put himself on a pedestal? Are we supposed to act like he didnt spit on our elders by saying “only the boring gays survived aids” like man! Fuck you! He BLANTANTLY MAKES UP HISTORY TO PUT HIMSELF ON A PEDESTAL!! HE ACTIVELY TRIED TO REWRITE LGBT HISTORY TO SUIT HIS FUCKED UP NARRATIVES!

yes this sucks ! no one deserves this but no one should be making him a martyr. Thats what he fucking WANTS! He wants to be immortalized as a victim!! (again, supposedly, it was reported hes alive but its not confirmed).

The shit he got isnt near the amount of fucking callous behavior hes done again and again. Again, to drill this point, EVEN IF HE DIDNT CALL THE POLICE HE THREATENED A TRANS WOMAN INTO THINKING HE DID!!! The fact he tried to use a head injury to justify years of the outright ghoulish shit fucking astounds me. Why the fuck did anyone in his life thought it was a good idea to let him TRY to come back. in the end, he had options. he didn’t need to try to make a comeback. HE DIDNT NEED TO FUCKING LIE OR IGNORE THE SHIT HE WAS CALLED OUT ON the reality is, he wanted to come back thinking he could shove it under the rug, was told that no dude, you’re not allowed to be a youtuber anymore. you’re done. you need to move on and went full nuclear. it’s not on anyone’s hands but his own. HES BEEN DOING THIS TO HIMSELF!! But nah man we cant call his shit out bc hell may or may not kill himself. Fuck the other minorities who have the same issues but worse and sometimes BECAUSE of him. This is going to SUCKKKK so bad when other ppl, specifically white gays, are going to weaponize this shit to get away with their stuff.

#warning: do not read this post if you want me to be nice to james somerton. i am extremely mean in this post. #before anyone accuses me of shit i legit never contacted him myself or anyone involved. i am someone who witnessed this behavior repeatedly #again. i hope hes alive and well. the fact is him lying about this WOULD BE THE IDEAL SITUATION. BC NO ONE SHOULD GO THROUGH THAT. but. #he HAS to forever be the victim in his eyes. attempting doesnt automatically mean youre free of sin. #its just terrible to see that regardless whether or not he did do it #its very clear his attempts to run away from his consequences are working on some people #we need to acknowledge that if your shitty ex friend can weaponize a threat to kill themselves #so can this internet person after being called out for horrendous shit #like what was the alterative? what were people supposed to fucking do? be nice about it? #yeah as if poc and trans women arent historically given shit for being 'too mean' about wanting justice. #this isnt just the plagiarism this is the fact a white dude has been parading himself as THE speaker for the gays(tm) but has been using hi #gayness to shield himself from his misogyny racism transphobia and antisemitism #its very clear regardless this means that ppl r going to side with him and then give him benefit of doubt #if you cant handle the heat stay out of the fucking kitchen dude. this is the consequences of your fucking actions. #hes a disgusting person who cant handle being told no so hes going to drag everyone down with him #like. idk this entire situation is frustrating to me. #its also frustrating ppl trying to be moral abt it like 'see! i knew this was bad all along!' no you didnt. shut it. #for the record im like mainly talking abt twit watching those spineless uwu cutesy ppl basically saying hes done noting wrong #oh and also alt righters who are clearly weaponinizing this where u know they wouldnt give a shit if a right ytber did this. #james somerton #idk might delete this later its just. ugh...

[birdsong-warriors]

Brick may seem to have a bit of a double standard here when it comes to labels, but they don't consider "halfhouser" (half housecat) to be a bad thing, much less an insult. But "half-cat" is too far into icky and demeaning and invalidating territory; they are very much not cool with that, and they're eager to call it out.

On another note: the escaped prisoner is Stonefur.

You can start watching jason steele’s Vulo streams here but here’s a piece of one of the war criminal trial segments (they are always also nobel peace prize winners) and it’s something else when you pay attention to the chat stream and notice the majority of viewers are hearing all this for the first time ever (granted most of them are probably kids, but still)

edit/ if you missed my other posts about Vulo, Vulo is a Face Borrower from the Void currently borrowing a catgirl’s face so they can be a vtuber, I hope that clears it up!

Please, for the love of gods, allow yourself to consume content/media uncritically

You can be aware of issues a show/game/movie/etc has but you don't need to be aware of it *all* the time, you shouldn't have to justify yourself liking it every time you go to talk about it.

You shouldn't have to feel like you're the worst person in the world just because you like something that happens to have problematic stuff in it.

And you're setting yourself up for failure if you go into something immediately looking for all of the bad in it, you're setting yourself up to be unable to enjoy it! And if you do manage to enjoy it it'll likely just feel wrong because of that!

I'm begging y'all not to consume *everything* critically and to sometimes enjoy things uncritically.

#its so fucking easy to end up demonizing yourself just because you like media thst isnt deemed “good” #i only just recently realized how fucking guilty id feel admitting i like watching helluva boss to other people outside of my circle. or #feeling thr need to warn people about the heavy racism in baldur's gate 3 for the fear of being seen as an awful person for praising the #game despite thst in it. fuck i even feel bad admitting i like watching law and order special victims unit bc of its content and how often #it just goes- *wrong* but like- i realized a lot of that is bc my brain and my ocd are constantly trying to take content in critically. #trying to always shame it bc its “bad” either bc of its content or its creators and thus my ocd has a field day of turning thst around to #meam that *im* bad because i enjoy it. which isnt fucking true. i enjoy iy #which isnt true. i can know stuff is not good/great for various reasons but i can still enjoy it without that inherently make me bad #anyway bc this is tumblr im already expecting people to try to twist my words and intents to make this seem like s horrible thing #idc atm bc my head hurts from trying to just exist and relearn how to enjoy stuff without fucking purity culture and my ocd shame watching #me lile a fuckin hawk #cant wait to see how freeing it feels tho once i stop giving as much of a fuck/worry

[dayurno]

and just because this bears repeating as long as it’s not general consensus: if you think fans of color are being uncharitable towards nora when we criticize her for the ‘two out of three characters of color are sexual harrassers/abusers’ book, you should actually check out how aftg feels about people of color. if you find this conversation dreary and uncomfortable, you should try reading your favorite book while actively ignoring the parts of it that mistreat and dismiss the people who look like you. if you think nora will be upset at the criticism, you should consider being a fan of color (and especially a black fan!) and seeing your peers value the author’s personal feelings over your real, lived experience in fandom spaces, when the author has all the means to up and walk away at any point but you are going to be a person of color forever

Power Instinct Songs Ranked by Me (Part 3 of 8)

60. KAMIKAZE (Groove on Fight)

Groove on Fight OST > Power Instinct 1 OST (in my opinion). That said, this is not one of the better tracks. Still kinda groovy, though. (Yeah yeah, pun kinda intended. I mean, how else am I gonna describe GoF's soundtrack?

59. Heavy! (Matrimelee)

The weakest of the four Rage of the Dragons cameos' themes.

58. Kechabian (Power Instinct 2)

[Yes I know the video spells Kechabian with a G, but the album spells it with a ケ (ke), so there.]

But anyway, this song... is meh. Maybe a little racist, but I don't know much about Lebanese music or culture (because Sahad is from Lebanon, you see), so I can't say for certain. Either way, being from Power Instinct 2 can't save it from mediocrity.

57. Enji Ensou ni Yoru Aku Gaki Youchien Enka (Gogetsuji Legends)

(Sorry for no video, I couldn't find any songs from Gogetsuji Legends on YouTube or any other video site.)

It's a bunch of kids singing about how they love being bad. Not as bad as those aliens, because they're just kids. Still kind of meh, and kinda sloppy sounding (if that makes sense).

56. Warugaki Youchien Enka (Power Instinct 2)

The original, less sloppy version of #57. Still meh.

55. Hajimete no Ai -Jazzy Version- (Gogetsuji Legends)

Wow, a lovey-dovey song that doesn't completely suck! I guess being jazzy helps. Still don't like the harp sections, though.

54. Sorrow! (Matrimelee)

Now we're going into B-tier territory. It does sound pretty sad for a fighting game song, but not too sad for me to not enjoy it even a little. I dunno.

53. Eli-san no Shitsuji (Gouketsuji Ichizoku Matsuri Senzo Kuyou)

Not much to say, but I like the choir singing, especially during 0:33 and 1:40. Makes it sound epic and classy. Really, this song is epic and classy. Or at least classy.

52. Subarashiki Internet (Matrimelee/Bonnou Kaihou)

If there was a song that describes me the best, it's this song. Maybe not so much the part about finding love on the internet, but everything else kinda fits.

51. Eiyuu ni Naritai (Ayashige Version) (Power Instinct 2)

Doesn't sound much like Eiyuu ni Naritai, but since it's only the first round, it's just building itself up for the next rounds.

Part 4 coming soon!

"the yukon affair" (2x14) is a mixed bag of an episode—mildly interesting plot meets period typical racism/cultural insensitivity, which happens a lot on tmfu—but i love the character of murphy so much; she's shown to be super smart (she's a mcgill grad!) and self-reliant, she's super proud of her people, her character is given a fair amount of nuance in regard to how she talks about navigating both the western and indigenous worlds and the struggles therein ("it's not easy to be part one thing and part another. no one treats you as if you're real"), her chemistry with illya is spot on (their flirting featuring the line "i've always adored blonde men" is so fun), and it's cute to see her give him and napoleon a kunik at the end of the episode before she heads back to school to get her master's (back at mcgill!). of the innocents we see throughout the series (especially when episodes are otherwise mid to bad) i think she's one of the stronger ones overall!

#i wish we saw more from this actor too! i couldn't find out anything about tianne gabrielle (it seems like this was one of her only major #roles) but i think she was particularly strong in this ep even given the wild insensitivity/racism that shows up #the man from uncle #murphy tmfu #illya kuryakin #napoleon solo #gif warning

"TW: racism. While I think DS9 should have a sequel instead of Star Trek TNG, I'm glad we didn't have one anyway. Most characters of DS9 would have been killed. I think Avery Brooks is a great actors and he was very underused by the producers After the end of DS9. Recently, in an interview Cirroc Lofton said Avery Brooks was blacklisted by a producer. I'm very sad to learn that only now and I feel like there is an awkward silence. So far, only Cirroc Lofton and no one else seem to support Avery Brooks unless maybe he doesn't want to unpack this stuff."

I feel like these two libertarians compete with each other to post some of the dumbest memes in existence. And I'm pretty sure the only reason they keep getting shoved in my feed is because Elon follows them.

I remember when opposition research took effort. Now everything just comes directly to me and I think I prefer the effort.

Like, neither of them are smart enough to know how stupid their ideology actually is. But even by libertarian standards, these are some of the smoothest brains in the entire collective.

I don't understand how no one pulls them aside at the meetings and is all, "Maybe memes aren't your thing. You're kinda making us all look like idiots. Maybe just post some Ayn Rand quotes and call it a day."

Not that I have to explain it, but...

Workers share losses by not being workers anymore.

No one thinks insulin is free. We are suggesting that tax money be allocated so it is free at point of service. Perhaps by taxing the wealthy or not manufacturing tanks we don't use.

We use tax money for social good all the time. Insulin is such a weird place for folks to draw the line. Like...

Firetrucks. Yes. Roads. Yes. Public schools. Yes. Life-saving medication... well that is just too far.

And the free cotton thing does not make any sense. How is a capitalist slave owner... nope, not worth trying to figure out.
