thinking about Caleb "been a fugitive in the streets for 3 years" widogast giving tips about being on the run to essek "public figure member of one of the most powerful dens all his life" thelyss like "schatz pls you need to look a little more rugged than that if you're trying to go unnoticed everyone and their mother will stop and look to the most handsome man they've ever seen" "darling everyone on the assembly and dynasty knows how you do your hair perfectly you NEED to use him a little bit messier than that" "yes I know you pride yourself on your perfect posture but if you could hunch down just one bit so not everyone in that village knows you come from nobility..."

#essek looks at him horrified in the last one #at some point caleb says 'you could throw some dirt around yourself so people will actively ignore you more yk' #to which essek responds 'I would rather die' #cr2 #shadowgast #mighty nein #Caleb widogast #essek thelyss #sorry I'm just having silly thoughts about him for comfort today

gay people cannot break up normally it always has to be something like "it was me. i called the cops. but you're still in charge, benson" and get like four women and cops involved

#GODDDDDD i enjoyed the movie so much. so so much. i loved how tense it was #seeing the caption (OMINOUS MUSIC) and knowing shit was about to go down felt like when playing games & you get close to an enemy #and the battle theme activates lol #the ending had me so tense though. for whatever reason i thought benson was gonna come out of the closet at any second #and it was just the silly plushies😭 #i wish we had learn more about benson's circumstances but maybe he was just fucked up. good enough for me #randy bradley #the passenger 2023 #the passenger

can ppl let others have time to have fun for a while without reminding them of awful shit going on, insisting they "cant forget" that these things are happening. as if just going around being silly and enjoying yourself for a while means youre ignoring the suffering of the whole world 🙄

#you dont have to have this shit on ur mind 24/7 #it doesnt make you a bad person to not be expending your thoughts and energy on bad stuff all the time #people NEED breaks. if you see people having fun and go ''but dont forget [bad thing]'' that IS fucked up #people can have fun without completely forgetting whats going on in the world #its just another form of guilt tripping even if thats not the intention #also tumblr isnt using april fools to try to make people forget the transphobic shit theyre doing #this is just a yearly thing they do. they do silly shit every april fools. theres not an agenda to it. not everything is done maliciously #give people time to be silly for a while then get back to fighting injustice later (given they have the time/energy) #okay. relax for a while. putting down the pitchforks for a party popper and boops isnt going to destroy activism #*also not to say some tumblr staff may not be Hoping itll make people forget or something but like #that doesnt mean thats the purpose of the april fools shit. its not a random sudden new thing theyre doing for the purpose of distraction

okaaaayy, so, i saw a post that i think was sort of targeted towards one of my posts talking about how "lbh was better than me bc i too would've gone bat shit insane"

"I've seen a post saying that that they understand LBH going bat-shit crazy because one guy (Shen Jiu) rejected him, and that they would've done the same."

and i would just like to say that i am in no way justifying bingge or bingmei's actions, and i think i made it pretty clear that i knew how fucked and unhinged lbh was ahaha..? though it's not just because one guy rejected him, but because of the terrible side dishes, nasty after taste, and tragedy galore!

all i was rlly doing was putting myself in lbh's shoes. in my post, i was saying how if i was thoroughly bullied and alone throughout my whole life and then was randomly taken cared of by someone and proceeded to fall completely in love with them, and then out of nowhere they turned a complete 180 and pretty much told me to fuck myself bc of my race and pushed me down into literal hell, i think i would've gone crazy! absolutely bonkers. then that person kept running away from me when i'm just trying to talk to them? i don't know how my mental health would be able to take that! the post was more placed in a joke-y manner, but i do think that i would've done the same if that was my situation. is that okay? hell to the fucking no, i'd be horrified of myself if i were to see me doing that no matter the reason. the same goes for the og, the pidw binghe's situation

and really, the same goes for sj as well. if throughout my whole life i was on the streets and then a slave and beaten etc... shit, i probably would've turned out just like him. it doesn't make it right, and i'm not justifying it, but i'm placing myself in the characters' shoes and understanding how they came to be such a way

so, i was pretty much saying that i understood luo binghe, though in no way did i mean to excuse his actions. but i understand that it sounded like i was justifying it, so i can 100% see that now looking back which i am completely at fault for. and, i for one also dislike it when people try to downplay luo binghe's actions or justify what he did

"by your logic, can we excuse serial killers going on a rampage because the person they liked refused them?" no, absolutely not. and no, i wouldn't be okay with a crazy bastard taking it out on someone i cherish for a stupid reason. i wouldn't be okay with someone taking it out on anyone for any reason. there is a line between reality and fiction that i do not cross, and even in fiction i can very thoroughly recognize the fucked up side of my favorite characters

lbh's fucked and definitely a little more than unhinged, and i don't truly think that he's a completely good or even bad person, but i do appreciate that (at least, to me) he seems to try to become a better one after all of that at the end of the series and recognizes that he can't own sqq

and, hey, sj is one of my favorite characters! i enjoy how mxtx made the svsss characters be fucked in some degree. like how lqg thinks just beating up his disciples is a valid teaching method. i enjoy stories with characters who aren't necessarily "good" or "bad" only. moral ambiguity with characters is so interesting!

i really don't think that we should be putting lbh stans and sj stans against each other because, well, there will always be people on both sides who justify the characters' actions. it's not just one side is doing this and the other side isn't doing that, ykwim? and this isn't even just about lbh and sj when we think about it, it's how some people perceive characters who are morally questionable and don't truly look at all sides of the character! the bad, the good, and the ugly

i love sj and lbh, i love my characters with ambiguous morals, and i love that i can put myself in their shoes and see where they're coming from/why they're the way they are no matter how delightfully screwed it is. especially bingge, he's a deliciously tragic and horrible person

so, if i were to believe that lbh's (or tbh any svsss's characters') actions were okay and justified, and also proceeded to believe so if it took place in real life, then there "might" just be something wrong with me

#this is not meant to attack the other poster! i just wanted to explain myself and give some thoughts #sorry if this post was a little messy lol #hey if it wasnt targeted towards me then im sorry about that but i think this still stands #also i think the difference between lqg and sj's teaching is that sj went out of his way to directly target lbh #like providing him a fake manual etc #not justifying lqg btw but that provides a reason why people dont give lqg a lot of shit #like yes he does actively also go out of his way to beat up his disciples though sj just wanted to sabotage lbh for a reason- #-us fans don't know! #this is all so silly #svsss #mxtx svsss #svsss meta #luo binghe #shen qingqiu #shen jiu #liu qingge

Today’s vore thought is a buncha prey buddies hanging out in their pred friend’s stomach telling spooky stories. Someone has a flashlight and it keeps getting shakily passed around depending on who’s turn it is to tell a story. At some point the pred’s stomach makes a weird noise and it startles everyone for a moment before they all dissolve into a fit of giggles. Y’know, soft silly domestic stuff. 

#soft vore #safe vore #g/t vore #I just want to see a bunch of silly friends using vore as a chill way to hang out #bonus points if it’s a regular sleepover activity lol #hello friend who sparked this thought :) you know who you are

i have been scrolling through ur page and noticed that u tend to put long, thoughtful tags underneath nearly every post u reblog & i just thought that was very endearing since the general trend is short and concise. im not sure why i felt the need to write u and let u know, but i just felt very compelled to. pls never stop being u.

this is so very sweet of you!! it's an old habit that i have held onto for the longest time, mostly due to the fact of tags being excellent for organization (my beloved) but also as a kind of extra space for whatever else you'd like to include without actually including it in the post when others share it for themselves! it's that perfect mixture of private n public.

for this blog specifically it's something that i enjoy since it's really an exercise or activity in enjoyment / enrichment? i like to think about why i was so inclined to reblog it, to pin it up to this lil space on the interwebs that's all my own. whether that's the colors, or the wording of things, or just what it makes me think about or feel, it's just a really lovely way of considering it all a little deeper!

which is not something that comes easy, or at minimal energy, sometimes! my likes are extensive (i keep attempting to clean them out and bring back my queueing system but we are up to 5k and i am very tired at the moment, lol) for that reason, and it's like a small goal to try to chip away at them over time, to see what treasure i can discover today.

alternatively, it's also a really nice near - time capsule of a thing; to be able to comb through my archive and see what has changed in my outlook, what sticks out to me now versus then, is really fascinating to see how far i've come and what's changed. there's something so lovely about time being instilled so deeply into this lil mini game of online scrapbooking that i adore; so i'm peached n overjoyed that you find some joy in it as well!!

this is all to say: thank you sm and i hope you try it out for yourself if it's something you think you might have fun with! let me know how it goes :)

#q&a. #birdsong. #alt: it's that autistic rizz u know 🤙 i have so many words for everything and tumblr gives me a (semi) reserved space for them ! #esp. since i don't really enjoy the idea of clogging up op activity feeds w/ my miniature observational essays. #tags are that right about of personal n private and i just adore ittttt. it's the reason i've stuck w/ tumblr so long. #i love that they work as such great organizational tools at the same time as being a space for extra things as well! a double hitter of fun #but also this made my entire night; i am continually surprised people take the time to read my silly lil thoughts!!! thank u for ur time <3

Personally, I feel everyone even Jane Austen herself is a tad bit mean when it comes to the character of Mrs. Bennet and should shift some on that to Mr. Bennet. Like yes she's a silly, neurotic woman but can u like blame her?

Her husband failed to do anything for their children. He stopped being involved in their education probably around Mary's childhood, did not save or plan for the future of FIVE women at all, and not only that he's so unbothered by ANYTHING at all like Mr. Collins - the heir to his estate and fortune - stops by and he doesn't even tell his family?????? until he's about to arrive?????? Not only that it's kind of cruel the way he does it like haha u guys know how yall are women so u don't inherit shit? well, the dude that can come and turn u all out on ur asses - which is mostly my fault bc i didn't do shit to make sure u all are provided for once I'm gone - is about to arrive so hehe.

Like in what other way is Mrs. Bennet supposed to behave in that era where her daughter's futures were entirely dependent on the wealth of the man they marry. And honestly, i think Mrs. Bennet was almost too kind to Mr. Bennet I'd have been very bitter knowing that even tho we tried for a son - hence all the daughters - he still did nothing to ensure their financial security. Like these girls could have ended up destitute and it'd be entirely his fault. I always saw Mrs. Bennet as a mother who was just trying to do the best she could to look out for her daughters given the circumstances.

#like don't get me wrong #i love that he loves lizzy hes funny but tbh he is overall a piss poor dad #like he did not give a shit about the wellbeing of his family until his youngest daughter was near social ruin #pride and prejudice #jane austen #and like ik a lot of the reason Mr bennet isn't an active figure in the family is bc hes unhappy in their marriage #mrs. bennet did not turn out to be the partner he wanted for a wife mother #but their relationship shouldn't affect his involvement with his children #like i feel like their marriage was painted as poor Mr bennet married a silly woman and that made him unhappy #but i also feel that mrs. bennet didn't exactly luck out for a partner as well #i'd have a lot of resentment if i realized that bc my husband is unhappy with me he checks out of being a parent to the kids WE createdi #idk i have a lot of thoughts on their relationship

[adhdandcomics]

adding to my tags because i’ve been thinkin a lot about the post i just reblogged and have more thoughts:

i’ll be real, the more i saw ‘hey adhd influencers are so annoying’ the more i worried that i was unconsciously contributing to the spreading reputation of adhd folks as annoying and over-pathologizing every symptom they experience

and then i realized. i am not a goddam influencer or life coach or representative. obviously i have some obligation as someone who cares about myself and the people that like my comics to not spread harmful ideology or blatant misinformation but i never intended myself to be a “’increase your productivity!!’ blog OR a ‘if you have XYZ you have adhd!’ blog. and i do this for fun, and originally started this blog bc i had a lot of internalized shame and self loathing about my adhd and thought if i could make it funny i might have less of that. let’s get real! and it worked!

i’ve obviously done this kind of thing— (hey these symptoms might be adhd!) a lot before in my life & on this blog, but there’s more to it than trying to be an “influencer” or whatever. a term that didn’t even exist when i started this blog!

i felt very isolated trying to find out if i had any mental problems & what have you originally because of large advice (etc) blogs with staunchly anti self Dx views at the time

so i overcorrected when i DID get dxed and tried to validate everyone who was like me. and of course. not the best course of action always for the ol mental health. tried to be the source of positivity and jokes that i didn’t see because the online adhd presence was near non-existent.

and anyway. i make a lot of fun of myself & the way m brain works in my comics obviously but it is not my obligation to... how do you say.... not be annoying online.

because if folks interpret MY little jokes as a strict guide to diagnosis. that’s on them, really, not me. i also believe “making adhd your entire personality” is a non-issue. so what if people find out they have it and get over excited with identifying as adhd. saying this as someone who DID do it. criticism of this gives the same vibes as people being annoyed that young queers make “being queer” their whole personality. im very obviously more than a guy with adhd, and id reckon other adhd comic artists are too. (im friends with a lot of them!) it’s fine to post about it online.

anyway. i just don’t take myself too seriously and i’m a comic artist for myself first! and you know what, i’ve been considered annoying my entire life. what do i care if a few more folks think i’m annoying. neurotypical or not

#i think the article did have some good points especially on the capitalism and marketing angle but i oft think it did venture into #being mad at individual folks who post jokes about adhd. which is literally fine thats what an opinion piece is for lol #i am just very tired of people pretending that a lot of reaction to online adhders is not in itself just an extension of the ableism #we already were facing #'adhd people are so annoying everyone does this youre pathologizing everything' ok and how exactly are you helping. #i hesitate to throw my hat in with hating on adhd tiktok because i am simply not on tiktok and have no way to back up my thoughts #that they may be annoying and oversimplifying a complex disorder on the 'drains your attention span' website. #and i think perhaps the value of each adhd resource varies widely depending on who made it and what theyre even posting. #sometimes its a joke made by a person with adhd. sometimes its sourced and cited research. sometimes its someone discussing their personal #experiences in depth. sometimes its someone talking completely out of their ass. sometimes its THINLY veiled ableism. #its up to the individual to research and determine the value of the memes and resources you seek #anyway. perhaps these points are tough to clarify on sites like insta and twitter. bless. #text #adhd #im punk now #oh and yeah i also agree lots of folks do not talk about the unsavory parts of adhd but rather the funnies and the sillies. but that is #once again a larger capitalism and marketing and ableism problem #r we not talking about them because we are actively trying to infantalize this disorder or is it because we collectively experience a lot #of internalized ableism and hesitate to talk about our worst symptoms for fear of the backlash #weve always gotten about them 🤔🤔🤔 #much to consider #if youve read this far sorry for tangent number 56 about this. but also start being more unapologetic about your disorders. fuck it! #<3

Something I've always liked about Blazblue is how mood-wise it's pretty well rounded. It's very earnest in it's serious moods but at the same time it doesn't take itself too seriously. Even taking out the gag reels I feel like the game does a good job where all the grit and edge is well balanced with silly or more wholesome moments. Even the most serious and tragic character has funny quirks and even the most goofy character has some edges. It's very good with keeping the mood from turning into something irritating across the main story. XBlaze also does an excellent job at this (pspspsps it's not too late to play XBlaze) and I would argue at least Variable Heart is decent at it too. I haven't gone totally through Phase Shift but considering it's pretty well liked I'd assume that of it as well, and I'd even give Bloodedge Experience that from what I've heard from other people.

#blazblue #I can elaborate on my thoughts on the gag reels later but i do consider them an outlier since they're non canon and actively trying to just #be silly #some of them aged WONDERFULLY and someow xblaze's entire gag route is pretty funny even now but a lot just #didn't age well. for various reasons. and are meh to kinda cringy and annoying

[rainey-arts]

Okay this is rather random and I'm making this while I'm like half asleep so if I ramble I apologize i just like to get silly lil thoughts out

I e seen some theories regarding Usurna's relations with the gum-gums and her potential relations with Gunmar and Bular (such as her mabye being blood related to atleast one of them) for example her being Gunmar's daughter because she has certain traits simaler to Gum-Gums. Like her face shape and eye color.

I personally like the idea.of her being part gum-gum for one reason or another but I don't think she's related to Gunmar or Bular

I think and here me out on this

she's related to this guy

Orlagk

I have a few reasons as to why, some of them are very loose but still there reasons

1. They boy have red eyes

This is one of the weaker points . Every other Krubera has green eyes, but not Usurna. You could argue that it was just a design choice to make her look different or something but I mean maybe the more reddish eye color was something she picked up for her dad

2. Hands

Most the other Gum-Gums have claws,. including Gunmar and Bular.

However Orlagk does NOT have clawed hands

He has normal hands with black nails. Which means if he hooked up with a Krubera there would be a smaller chance of them getting clawed hands like Bular unlike if Gunmar hooked up with Krubera because genetics

Now you might be wondering. If she's related to Orlagk why would she help Gunmar cause wouldn't that mean he killed her father?

I don't have a very good answer for that besides that mabye she wouldn't know that's really her father or that she just didn't care for him and didn't mind if he died (I Mean Orlagk is called the OPPRESSOR so I highly doubt he was like by any of the other tribe leaders. Frankly if that was my dad I wouldn't say anything either). Given her character and status both could make sense

Why would the Krubera let her rule if she was half Gum-Gum?

This would also play on her not knowing, but if she was hypothetically related to him I doubt her mother would have said anything. A Krubera queen sleeping with Orlagk the oppressor? The next heir to the throne being related to a warlord? Yeah that's not a good image. Either that or she just didn't say anything herself.

Anyways that's my silly little rant thank you for your time 👍

#Orlagk #trollhunters #tales of arcadia #usurna #gunmar #toa #silky little head cannon that i may or may not use #i mean it could also explain how she originally met Gunmar if Orlagk was her father since if i remember correctly Gunmar was his general #if he was active in her life that is #also just a reminder this is not cannon probably never will be and is jsut a silly little thought i had
