#so obviously I had to fix that

[molinaskies]

An interesting “side effect” of the canonization of the “classic era” meaning “younger era” is that the classic era now reads as “cute fun times” before the core cast became teenagers/tweens and things got super, super complicated.

Because the characters are “younger,” there’s an air of “little rascal innocence” to everything they do now. The new releases like Mania and Superstars now feel like little throwbacks to the young heroes just learning how to work together and make a difference in the world.

I don’t think this is a bad thing at all.

#this is actually something I’ve headcanoned for years #seeing it reflected like this in canon is actually pretty strange #but welcome #I genuinely think it makes much more sense #it reminds me a lot of the anime erased if anyone knows what that is #this was obviously never the plan from the beginning. Sega certainly just expected us to be like #‘oh it’s the same thing but pretend that sonic had green eyes the entire time’ #but of course pontac and graff happened #and generations happened #and forces happened #and suddenly they had way too many gaps to fill #so all things considered I have no issue with this retcon #it fixes a lot of problems tbh #sonic the hedgehog #sth #sonic #amy rose #tails the fox #knuckles the echidna #classic sonic #sonic frontiers #sonic mania #sonic superstars #core four #sonic core four #miles tails prower

house having a reputation for being soooo unserious that all of his passes at wilson are brushed off when in reality he would let wilson fuck him in his fishbowl if wilson would let him

#house md #hilson #regretting not having a tally for all of the gay jokes house makes between him and wilson #there are so many it raises questions (the answer is gay sex. obviously) #“sex with you wouldn't fix me but it would make me better” “what if i like you terrible?” “what if i told you this is foreplay to me” #<- dialogue i want to see happen somewhere even if i must do it myself #also wtf tumblr automatically making arrows with < - i had to find this out on my own!!! great website

So...

holy shit this conversation, i have. so many thoughts.

i'm like, 80% sonic is gonna face some kind of betrayal from either dread or nine

#nine because he is the most important variant obviously so his betrayal would hit harder #also because he wanted to use a shard to create his own perfect world. and sonic needs them to fix his #also also because it's likely fixing sonic's world would make the shatterverse dissappear #and with nine having researched the shards i find it likely he could be the one to find out about the consecuences of fixing the cristal #and i doubt he would be a fan of the whole dissapearing to instead become a part of someone else thing #plus he was the one named during the conversation about the people from the shatterspaces #and in the trailer for s2 we had images of him implying he would meet the other tails #i'm not saying he's gnna be EVIL but he might be against sonic at some point #and in the case of dread #WE the audience know he's selfish and only cares about himself and his treasure #but neither his crew nor sonic found out about that #i find it unlikely they would just let him get away with using people like that #so at some point he's gonna have to do something that outs him as the ruthless person he is #plus he is OBSESSED with his shard. why would he let sonic keep it #we know the council gets hold of his shard at some point #so maybe they loose it on their first appearaence this “season” and then he cooperates to get his shard back #but when the moment comes to let sonic have it (after recovering the shard) he steals it or something #sonic prime #sonic prime season 2 #sonic prime spoilers #sonic prime season2 #sonic prime s2

I think the most amazing thing about kanej is that while, yes, they are an incredibly written romance with so much tenderness and nuance present, they are also just two teenagers who are CRAZY for one another. I love them with all of my heart <3

Wyll and Karlach finally get to Zariel’s forge. They’ve a smith, they’ve a plan, they got this. It never goes easy though, and right as they step up to the massive forge, infernal iron in hand, Mizora finally appears.

When they had last spoken, all those months ago, Mizora claimed that she’d still visit Wyll—even if she wasn’t his patron. Perhaps their win against the Netherbrain caused some hesitation. Perhaps she knew that after six months of countless fights, Wyll would be able to take revenge.

Alas, she could hardly refuse her Mistress’s bidding. Of course Zariel knew Karlach would find and pursue her forge. Who better to defend it than Mizora, former patron to Wyll? She’d seen them fight. And who knows, the battle could be very entertaining.

anyway yeah I headcanon that before Karlach could get her engine fixed, they have a boss fight against Mizora. Because yeah :3 two birds with one stone and all that.

#im not much of a writer so excuse any mistakes and such #but yeah ive had this idea in my head ever since I found out that Wyll wanted revenge #and im all for it obviously #might even draw a little scene of this one day hehe #it’s unfair that everyone gets their revenge except Wyll dammit #and how dare we not be able to fix Karlach’s engine #bg3 #bg3 wyll #wyll ravengard #the blade of frontiers #karlach #karlach cliffgate #karlach bg3 #the blade of avernus

aki's just the sweetest whenever he has a crush on you.

he's totally obvious, immediately standing up straight whenever he sees you, finding it hard to meet your eyes and absently fiddling with his thumbs while he talks. he blushes to his ears when you stand a little too close to him. his hands get clammy and sweaty and he'll shove them in his pockets hoping you won't notice.

he compliments you every time you meet, telling you that you look pretty (like always, he means, you always are). he shares his lunch with you when you forget to bring any, he asks if you'd like to come over for dinner (he was supposed to run some errands instead, but if you want to come over, that's more important, and he isn't going to tell you that). he offers to pay for everything when you're around. the tone of his voice gets lighter and he smiles more. maybe someday he'll get the courage to ask you on a proper date.

#the one thing he can't do? confess #he's so obvious to literally everyone #but he refuses to confess to you when anyone prods him about it #he's just too nervous #and besides... he doesn't think you like him that much anyways #of course you obviously do but he can't tell #he fixes his clothes and his hair every time he sees you #he brushes his teeth multiple times and refuses to smoke if he's going to be around you #he'll make sure his apartment is completely spotless whenever you come over #I think akis never had a crush on someone before so he's a little bit childish about it #he's the kind of man who would do absolutely anything for you if you just ask #'aki... sorry to bother you... but if you have time.. could you please do this for me?' #'yes' (without hesitation) #aki <3

At the bus stop one time there was a gaggle of preschoolers waiting to catch the bus for a field trip day, and someone walked past with a couple of friendly little dogs, to great general delight.

But after a little bit, the dogs were getting overwhelmed, and the preschoolers were gently coaxed to back off so the person with the dogs could continue on. Specifically, one of the preschool teachers said, "Sometimes, when you're small, being surrounded by big people can be a bit scary and overwhelming. Even if they are friendly."

This was recieved as great wisdom: after all, the preschoolers were also small, and understood how scary and overwhelming big people could be! And the dogs were indeed even smaller than the preschoolers, so it made sense.

What was funny and charming was that, upon absorbing and reflecting on this wisdom, they all felt the need to tell it to one another. In tones of great insight, they turned to one another and said, "Did you know? Sometimes when you are small, being surrounded by big people can be scary and overwhelming! Even if they are friendly!" Back and forth, without any particular concern that they were all saying the same thing. Have reached comprehension of an insight, it must be shared!

I must say that this behavior is less charming in tumblr users than in preschoolers. Not least because tumblr users, having gained a little analytical skill to misuse, insist on Summarizing and Generalizing and Unifying the insights they repeat, quickly turning any interesting new information into formulaic dogmatic mush.

#i made the mistake of looking in the notes of the beach sand post i reblogged to see if anyone else had interesting comments #And the rate at which it went from like #1) person states with moderate confidence an opinion based on their personal observations #2) multiple people reply with “wow thats so insightful!” (aka it aligns with my preconceived notions of how things work) #3) someone else adds additional personal observations which are not really relevant but which can be absorbed into the narrative #4) people start outright stating the underlying belief on which this bias is constructed as if it were a fresh insight #5) general derisive attitude towards people who haven't seen the Obviously Correct solution to this complex real world problem yet #It's very....... #It's not like it's a high stakes post but it's such a microcosm of the whole dogmatic phenomenon #Also this js a more specific gripe to My Field or w/e #But the degree to which people react to the problems caused by the whole “Control of Nature” era of engineering #with this equally reductive “Nature will Fix Everything” type of attitude #Is sooooo frustrating. #Yes a great many of our current problems could have been avoided if we had not made massive changes to ecosystem processes on the assumptio #That they were simple and we understood them. And that they would respond in predictable ways. #the simplicity in retrospect of “wow we Should Not have done that” does not mean that they are simple to undo! #You can't go back in time. You can't turn back the clock on chaotic processes #Which is. Almost every process ever. #Restoration is hard! Returning to previous regimes of sediment or flooding or fire is tricky and full of foibles! #Moving towards a future which doesn't suck as much even if the past cant be recreated is also uncertain and difficult! #It's frustrating to see people act all high and mighty about how they Respect Nature unlike whoever is making all these decisions #When their understanding of the natural processes in question is AS simplistic as the people who caused the whole mess back in 1910 or w/e #Like I'm not saying there's not bad interests standing in the way of functional restoration on all levels #That's very much a fight to be fought. #But looking at that fight-in-process and saying “wow none of you Respect Nature like me uwu let nature fix it” #Is. #Ugh.

One reason I think it's actually good to start a big project is watching - in real time! - the fact that you're gaining proficiency

So, this is part of my project:

I'm not sure if you can see it on camera (I hope you can, even if it's embarrassing), but at the bottom of the piece, there are many stitches jutting out. Do you see the inconsistency in them? But when you move your eyes up toward the end (the top), the stitches are so much more even and uniform? It's so weird to see the progress right before your eyes, but it's honestly what I think makes this project special to me. The very bottom of this part of the project represents being able to not only learn but to remember. I think that's what makes this life worth living.

#art #crochet #encouragement #encouraging words #my first project tag #described images #image description in alt #i call those jutting stitches the texturizers #i feel like some of the texturizing stitches will bother me so i might actually sew them down a bit #obviously i am not going to rip the fabric down to the first row just to fix it #this has probably taken me between 10-15 hours? i'm not sure - it's easier to calculate the cost #i feel like you can catch my mistakes on camera but i had to really try to figure out the lighting so it can expose them as clearly as i can

Had a conversation last night with someone about the two times I've ever dated and I realized that when it comes to the first guy in middle school who came out as gay after like two weeks, he was probably using me as a beard cuz at one point he called me with his mom and had me tell her we were dating but cuz of anxiety it took several minutes for me to actually say it but that was likely him trying to convince her like "Hey I've got a girlfriend, see I can't be gay!" and like, homophobia from his mom aside, that's really fucking funny that I was a beard without knowing it and like six years later I ended up being a gay guy myself.

#he ended up having to move schools cuz i guess his mom thought that would fix the whole gay thing but it obviously didnt and that like. #sucks that his moms a scumbag and idk what #kinda conversation they had going on between him breaking up with me and him moving schools but like. man i feel bad for him #i met him again years later and he smoked a cigarette in the creek then left the butt in the water DESPITE THAT VERY MUCH NOT BEING A COOL #THING TO DO. so like. turns out hes not a great guy actually. i at least hope his moms not in his life if she still sucks. #personal #btw no im not hurt at all if he really was JUST using me as a beard. which is highly likely. nobody feel bad for me please lmao #and looking back on it. my only date with him was at his church so that lines up too. idk what he was probably catholic or christian
