#seriously where do they come from

[lila-rae]

Every time I sit on my husbands lap or go to hug him a child appears.

#seriously where do they come from #how do they know

[knowlesian]

“why do i believe this” and “who benefits from me believing it” are the first steps to decolonization and we should all be doing this more

#seriously how many weird rules do we all uphold #SO MANY #and they are all so jesus flavored and weird a lot of the time #like: okay where does the idea that someone is an unredeemable sinner come from #or that people cannot change #where does the carceral state spring from #why do we believe punishing sinners makes them good people #why do we think we have to set the table a certain way #why do we think violence belongs to power and dutiful service to those without power

You know I really wouldnt mind if we had an option to just erase porn bots out of existence by sheer angry thoughts of the brain.

#Just a thought #Seriously where do they come from

[as-you-think]

I think I only wanna wear booty shorts from now on

#seriously where the hell did this thing come from!? #i mean i know its because i work retail and i do an insane amount of squats every day as part of my job #but still! #HRT has exceeded expectations #look forward to all of the chasers im gonna have to block from this one #trans #me.png

Could you explain your position on Shallura? Since Allura was established as a teenager when she started dating Lance and Shiro was very clearly an adult. I can understand the bi shiro headcannon but the shallura thing worries me

i am going to remind yall that i have been in this fandom since 2016. and in the early seasons, allura was not established as a teenager. in fact she was coded as older, as closer to shiro's age -- there was a specific divide between her and the younger paladins that she did not have with shiro. they made her younger (both explicitly and in mannerisms) as the show went on. and i do not give a fuck about voltron like...post s4 and i didn't even watch s7-8. so like. especially with older fics, im going to enjoy shallura.

#also this is less relevant and i was going to put it in the main post but i cant find the words for it #but i found your last sentence kind of condescending. “the shallura thing worries me” as if i am your little project and things arent going #to plan. as if you are the Knower Of All Things and i am straying from my path lol. twas odd #and this is a controversial thing to say i know it but like #we take fandom way too seriously. if someone decides in fic to make two characters the same age to ship them or whatever. do we really need #to get the torches and pitchforks. like i can understand discomfort when people ship like shiro and pidge or something but. also. i feel #like you can just block and move on?? like i dont ship sheith bc they are brothers. to me. but also i dont think sheithers should be #harassed or any dumb shit like that. i think its so so whatever like theyre Lines man theyre moving lines #at the same time i understand that peoples headcanons can be reflective of their worldviews (like when racism/transphobia/sexism shine #through someone's headcanons/characterization) but how much scrutiny is too much? when do we get to remember that fandom is a place to #work with the FICTIONAL? where you can change details without consequence? i saw a fic where keith was the older sibling and shiro was the #younger once. it was a good fic. how come we can play with ages but only when the Fandom Council approves? #i guess this is a really long and clumsy way to say like. you do not own the fandom nor do you get to dictate my work. and while there #is always room for necessary criticism please also think critically before you post your criticism #anyways #rant #ask

ummmmmm. something something normal being the only one to actually empathize with the doodler before they were dood and teenshaped and being the only one to empathize with hermie when hermie was alive. that's it that's the thought.

#i have no conclusions other than how fast im spinning normal in my head #dndads #dndads spoilers #i think . it's like. something about normal being so heavily ostracized for so long #he doesn't really consider himself part of the group and he doesn't really think anyone takes HIM seriously #so he connects with the doodler and he connects with hermie and he tries so hard to connect with scary #and all of it comes to nothing because now everyone wants to be friends with the doodler now that they're approachable #and hermie is dead and scary is doing better for herself and no one seems to be long-term mad at her #so where does that leave him who still is this weird extra piece #he's an extra piece in his family(he was an accident) hes an extra piece to the school(no one really wanted teeny) #and he hasnt really gotten the attention or the care he needs from anyone else so. what happens to the extra pieces no one wants #they either die or are otherwise discarded #anyway im really ordinary about him

I think there’s something to be said for the fact that I used to dread presentations when I was younger but now plan to go out of my way to sign myself up for them so I can improve my public speaking. Me from not even two years ago would’ve never. But now ?? The more the merrier let me at them

#anything from research poster presentations to research conferences to medical conferences #i also plan on investigating conferences that center on arab culture through the refugee center i volunteer at #i think my frivolous little girl dream of being someone who actually contributes is coming to fruition more and more each day #obviously i'll be fucking nervous presenting to a bunch of doctors professors politicans etc etc #but it's just necessary! i want to conduct myself w confidence amongst professionals #instead of just being 21 and young and awkward and immediately getting written off as someone not to be taken seriously #not now!! i need to not do this thing where i throw myself into 80 different things at once #studying is my top priority atm #but soon! very soon. hopefully as i progress more thru my orgo research #so many things to look forward to i am going to melt into stardust #p

#p4 #persona 4 #p4g #persona 4 golden #hanamura yosuke #yosuke hanamura #god do i have so much to talk about in this scene #first of all yu's hug kills me because thats a very intimate hug thats not a bro hug where you put your arm around their shoulders #thats a hug where he put his arms around yosuke's waist!!!! #when yosuke says that's for girls... i kind of see what he means? personally id only hug my romantic partner the same way but hey #second of all and more seriously i think this is a really good example of how Yosuke's words frequently fail to match up against his action #yosuke might complain about how the hug is for girls but it doesnt stop him from holding on #the scene fades to black and yu says they stayed on the riverbank until yosuke calmed down #so they mught as well have hugged for the whole time? #idk im personally obsessed with the contradictions between what yosuke says and what he does because expressing himself is not his strength #Yosuke's words cannot be reliably taken at face value but i think his friends - and yu especially - come to learn and accept that abt him

People who say Megumi’s backstory from JJK wasn’t sad at all just because he had Gojo genuinely scare me. ☠️ Like dawg he got abandoned by his dad and mom, then his sister went into a coma before he can fully appreciate her. But you’re telling me just because Gojo adopted him that makes his backstory NOT depressing at all???

#some jjk fans lose their reading comprehension when it comes to megumi i swear #seriously where do all of these horrendous takes in jjk fandom come from #jujutsu kaisen #jjk #analysis #anime #character analysis #media literacy #idiot #jujutsu kaisen fandom #jjk fandom #megumi #megumi fushiguro #jjk manga #jjk spoilers #fushiguro megumi #megumi supremacy #free megumi #toji fushiguro #don’t read manga if you have no media literacy 😭

i love it when my art professors try to discourage me from drawing people because they assume i dont know human anatomy

it's so awesome when art teachers find out that you dont draw people photo-realistic 100% of the time they assume you dont know how to draw realistically at all

#this is sarcastic #head in my hands #i understand where this assumption comes from but dear god #i just wanna be taken seriously when i say i know what im doing for once #/neg

I remember reading comments on Reddit by people who hated the Netflix show 1899, and they were whining about how they watched it with dubs and that it confused them, because they didn't know certain characters weren't supposed to understand each other.

The stupidity of people never fails to show up.

1899 is meant to be watched with subtitles. Yet a bunch of morons put the dubbed version on, even though a huge aspect of the show is the language barrier between the characters.

1899 definitely would've worked better as a novel instead of a show. Because some stupid viewers out there couldn't be bothered to watch with subtitles like they should have done.

Getting mad at 1899 because you decided to watch it with dubs instead of subtitles is like getting mad that you can't see your television screen because you put a blanket over it. Your confusion and anger is your own fault.

Is Kesten a kinda stick-in-the-mud who probably works way too much? Yeah. Did I like him from the very first moment he was introduced? Yeah...

The (newly!) Baroness, Kesten Garess / Pathfinder Kingmaker (c) Owlcat Games

#pathfinder kingmaker fanart #pfkm #pfkm baroness #kesten garess #comic #owlcat games #pathfinder kingmaker #oc ailcha #kesten #what can I say. I have a soft spot for men who take duty way too seriously. #and I have come to understand that my baroness is a hugger. I am not. I do not know where this came from. #but three comic sketches with her hugging someone kinda gave it away. #also this damn page. after finishing (the first draft) I woke several times in the night with 'important insight' on what needed editing - #('I need to move that detail two steps to the right' or 'that line needs to be darker') #- and it just wouldn't stop. first draft is from may and since then I've just postponed posting because 'hmm. something... is off...' #it's interesting how the process can differ each time even if you stick with the same routine. but like. please. please let's just post it. #I am really feeling that joke about how you name your 'finished' files. this one is called x_pfk_kesten4copy3.png

Had a dream last night that Enji died in the war and his last request was to give doctors his permission to use his body as skin graft donations for Touya

#doctor: the surgery was a success! #touya: where’s my old man I still need to kill him #doctor: who do you think gave you the skin grafts? #no but seriously imagine him waking up and he has healthy skin. eyes that can produce tears. nerve endings that aren’t damaged #idk how he’d feel about his new body coming from endeavor but at least he’s dead so there’s that #ofc the narrative will say he ‘died a hero’ but I’ll take that over a redemption #dabi #touya todoroki #💙

The other day I was rewatching Hollowtone’s vod on Psychonauts 2, which is fun because of the chat overlay. And there’s the part where you can open the powers menu and see all the nice embroidered badges and the nice signatures of the teachers that gave you them…. except Sasha’s. And this makes sense, he wasn’t authorized to teach Raz psi-blast, so it would be really bad if he’s showing off his cool badges on his bag and someone sees Sasha’s signature. So Ford signed off on the marksmanship badge. But the chat in the vod is coming up with hilarious reasons why Sasha didn’t/couldn’t sign off on it, my favorites being:

“He’s only capable of of writing in Times New Roman”

“His handwriting is bad, toddler/doctor level”

“Sasha writes exclusively in latin”

“He actually can’t write”

“He uses telekinesis for everything, if he touches a pen he instantly dies”

And I was thinking about how ridiculous they were, but when I actually think about it… is there ever a proven time he actually writes something down? Like with his hands?

He’s living in a time period where typewriters existed, and in the current time, computers do, and therefore printers… And in one of the promotional comics he’s not even using his hands to eat with a fork, he just uses his powers. He uses telekinesis for most things actually. I don’t find it out of the realm of possibility of just using telekinesis to write things down. And then, I guess he’d never actually have need to learn to do it with his hands…

Maybe Sasha can’t write.

#psychonauts #psychonauts 2 #sasha nein #im seriously struggling to come up with a specific example in the game of something he actually wrote with his hands #I know this is absolutely ridiculous but I wouldn’t put it past his character #please tell me if there is one #i can just imagine a scenario where he’s like giving a presentation and writing things on a board with TK obviously #and everyone “normal” is rolling their eyes but like the chalk/marker breaks or something and someone gets him a new one #and someone asks why he can’t just do it the old fashioned way and he has some excuse of that he’ll block whatever he’s writing #but one is the interns *jokes* that “it’s ‘cause he can’t write” and of course that gets reaction from the crowd of surprise and denial #but the intern is like “if it’s so ridiculous then he can just prove me wrong right?” And everyone agrees #but all Sasha can do is sweat and stare defeatedly at the chalk/marker in his hand #do with this information as you will

I've come to the conclusion that loving young royals doesn't mean I can't be critical about it, maybe especially bc I love the show so much I have such strong feelings about it, good and bad and I can love parts of canon and agree with it and appreciate it but I don't have to love it all. I have accepted that it's okay if I don't accept the ending and I don't have to force myself to support it. It's okay to not agree with all of canon and it's okay to not side with all of the creators' intentions/views. Loving a show doesn't mean you have to take everything the writers say on face value and that's the only version that is allowed to exist. Canon isn't everything and fandom is about curating your own experience that makes you happy and not miserable. You don't have to dismiss canon in every aspect and ignore it entirely, that's certainly not what I want but there is a fine line between being canon respectful, allowing some parts to exist and sometimes, yes, you just have to say "fuck canon" and move on for your own sanity and wellbeing

#especically in the first two weeks of a new release everyone is feelings lots of intense emotions ranging from ecstatic to angry #everything in between is a part of it and i know i'm also feeling very strongly about it right now #i always try to stay levelheaded and rational and see things from an objective pov and be diplomatic about discourse #i don't want any of what i say drift off too much into meaningless hate instead of the constructive criticism it's supposed to be #but when you feel so strongly about something and sometimes you really just wanna say yeah i fucking hate it lol #but i always try to explain why and give understandable arguments and not just blindly hate on something #for example - I'm aware there are fans who have some problems with s2 and don't love the season whereas i do and it's my fave #and there is a difference between expressing some criticism and justified concerns which you can understand where it comes from #and those who are just like 'oh it's a horrible season. it was so shitty and we should get rid of it' which is dumb hate and just not true #and i can't support people like that and take them seriously #i can have my own issues with s3 from a subjective pov which can also include some justified criticism as well #but also still acknowledge it as a truly good piece of tv media and the quality is top notch #and that's why you have such high expectations and have critique because it is so good and sets such a high standard #yrtalk #with that being said i understand ppl not wanting to see any critic about it if they are riding the high of happy wilmon endgame #but that doesn't mean that i can't express my own opinions on my own blog and i will continue to do so #and maybe one day i will feel differently and accept or even like the ending who knows #but it doesn't have to happen. it's fine if it does but it's also fine if it doesn't
