#the claims everywhere

[legally-not-guilty]

We’ve reached a point where tumblr’s checkmarks (which were advertised openly as a scam) officially mean more than twitter’s checkmarks

#tumblr #Twitter #elon musk #blue checkmark #this week’s Twitter explosion #for context #Elon is forcing checks on celebs and claiming they paid #and everyone from everywhere hates it and is complaining #I learned this through desteil memes like a normal person

Scamming the scammer

John Constantine was the biggest headache Danny had managed to get, ever. After becoming King he did not think that his first task would be to solve the man's soul problems.

And it seemed quite incredible to him that the hellbazer would consider selling his soul as if it were a used car that he wants to get rid of to buy a new one. He was aware that he needed a soul, wasn't he? That it was not possible to buy a new one? Because he didn't want to be the one to inform him if that was not the case.

To top it off, beings from different domains within his kingdom came explicitly to claim the British's soul, which didn't even make sense, there were thousands of souls! Why did everyone want the same one? And why did he have to be the one to take care of it?

Completely frustrated, he placed all the paperwork for John Constantine in an empty room and locked the door. He smiled as he came up with a plan to improve the situation, it might be worth it.

That's how a drunk John Constantine found himself signing a dubious contract in exchange for the power to turn any liquid into beer, he didn't bother to read the contract, most demons just wanted his soul and this guy looked so human, with a presence so light it must be a minor demon for sure.

This turned out to be a bad decision when the next morning he found himself trapped in a room full of documents, the door locked. Taped to the door was a green note that said "Enjoy doing your own paperwork sir, I hope you're pleased with yourself", and well, maybe he should have read that contract after all.

#danny phantom #dp x dc #danny fenton #dc x dp #ghost king danny #john constantine #Danny obviously made his presence lighter #And John was to drunk to care about it #or check if it was true #No one said he take good decisions while drunk #justice league dark #Of course Danny is going to explain the situation later #but for now he wanted the hellbazer suffering the same as him for all the problem #all the contracts in the locked office were Constantine's contracts lmao #Danny got bored of the 80 visits per day from greater demons to claim the soul of some idiot #He's really just being petty right now #John considered if the power to get drunk everywhere was a good idea for a few seconds #he shrugged and decided that it was worth it #Danny had fun dressing up as a minor demon #The Justice League won't be as amused as him with the current situation #justice league #Danny will leave John locked up all weekend #although he is obviously going to feed him #he is not a monster #just a tired teenager #Read your contracts don't be like Constantine

cers 👑👑

her pose is based off this screencap of shiv succession just because i thought it fits [:

#cersei lannister #asoiaf #valyrianscrolls #mine. #i wanted to do something detailed so i can get back in the groove again.. however.. underestimated the 'detailed' part #tbh the cape is supposed to have brocade too but my sanity 😭😭 #and the fashion inspiration for this is everywhere but has ice and fire ever claimed they were historically accurate? no? exactly. #i usually put her in green but i thought red would be fitting this time. tbh i was debating that colour bc that seemed typical for her alas #i craved. and i actually had like 3 more sketches for her hair + outfit but this one took so long i dont think ill ever get around #to rendering those loool. and this is also why i dont draw her often. she just has SO much.......... SO MUCH details #i cry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #but i do like this series tho. where its more like a fashion exploration. i feel like redoing cat's to give her a better outfit #but i should do someone else lol

You know what's interesting to watch is that I feel like a lot of people have very thoughtfully and maturely moved away from "I don't like this specific character/ship/fictional work and here's a reason why it's problematic" but we still have a lot of "if you don't like this specific character/ship/fictional it's problematic" floating around (and the more extreme example, "everyone who dislikes this one specific thing is a bigot") and the latter is actually way dumber. Like, it is valid, in fact, to dislike a specific work because it has unfortunate implications; the issue is just that analysis cannot simply stop there. It is rather less valid to say "if you don't like this one specific female character you are a misogynist;" that definitely requires a lot of more involved analysis into what specifically their criticisms are, patterns in their preferences, and even then, you are only basing this on internet mannerisms; I think someone who has no favorite characters who are women is unlikely to be deeply involved in feminist causes irl, but this is technically possible, and it's very easy to find the reverse case of people who are terrible to real women and champion fictional ones.

#anyway saw someone insinuate finding im*dna's relationship unhealthy was neurotypical and my eyes rolled so hard they're now in canada #but this is an ongoing issue everywhere. it HAS gotten much better #but stragglers gonna straggle #the weird anons i got during c2 over essek and astrid truly did cement this #like unless you are talking about a white male cishet able-bodied neurotypical character #you can ALWAYS make a claim to bigotry over disliking them. which means you can NEVER stop there and be taken remotely seriously

"their relationship is romantic" "their relationship is familial" "their relationship is platonic" you're thinking too narrow. their relationship goes beyond labels. the family is inherently queer. their platonic love is romantic. the erotic is familial. each one is the other and the other is them

#.txt #i've gotten to the point of relationship anarchy where i no longer understand the obsession with labeling relationships #there's a post floating around like 'it doesn't matter if you view them as romantic or platonic the point is that they love each other' #and i get the message. however may i propose that distinctions such as that don't even have to matter. consider #bold claim probably. but whatever i didn't have the choice to think about love in a normative way and as a consequence i have thoughts #of course i am thinking about wincest but it applies everywhere. jopzier even #jopson views crozier as a surrogate parent but in an inherently queer way. does that mean he want to fuck his mom? probably not #but the fixation and need for redemption turns the traditionally familial relationship into something far more #do you understand #once you leave the normative behind labels become useless #do sam and dean love each other romantically or platonically or familially? consider: it doesn't matter. there are no words to describe it #their love is queer in the sense that it extends beyond normativity. society holds no sway over them. they are ungovernable #i find it ultimately unhelpful to discuss fiction in normative terms when the characters themselves exist outside of normative society #shows like supernatural and the terror are perfect examples. sam and dean were never normal and franklin crew left normal behind #the arctic doesn't care if you fuck your mom. the impala doesn't care if you kiss your brother #this isn't really about anything i just saw that post the other day and i was like. why doesn't this Hit for me. well this is why #however it IS helpful to discuss fiction set within normative society in relation to normativity. it's relevant! #most stories are not however set within the bounds of normativity. that's kinda the whole point of a lot of fiction #baby i explore relationship anarchy in ways that you couldn't even imagine #<-tldr #i have a tendency to write essays in the notes every time i post something. sorry about that. it feels safer here and i am skittish

why can i totally see these two just casually going to a bar wearing their merch like its nothing

I hate how you can't talk about your headcanons or hypotheticals for Gina and Collette after Decay without someone interjecting with, "Erm actually Gina is dead so-" Shut uuupppp!!!!!!! The way people will just accept anything is canon no matter how questionable the source is is so frustrating. You're saying there's NO conceivable way Gina could be alive because *checks notes* Randy Pitchford made a tweet responding to someone's question about Gina's model being used in Opossing Force as a dead body on Xen. A game that came out before Gina's playable appearance in Decay. Where she isn't even wearing the same HEV suit.

Seriously, why are we letting tweets made YEARS after the fact have the same level of relevancy and importance as the games themselves.

#half life #still thinking #gina cross #half life decay #This isn't a problem exclusive to HL fans btw. I see this kind of stuff everywhere #People really need to figure out that tweets retroactively claiming things to be true um. shouldn't be considered canon #In most cases at least. #I understand Half-Life fans are starved for content but come on #Also no hate to you if you personally subscribe to this headcanon but maybe. don't go around reminding people about how totally dead she- #-is on posts where they're discussing Gina after the events of Decay

SLAMS DOWN DOOR SCOTT PILGRIM THE GAME WAS DISTRIBUTED BY UBISOFT AND NO ONE TOLD ME???? does that mean canonically america is jus cyberpunk capitalist dystopia you can jus walk into canada and then immediately get hit with

#im so deadass like #with the fact that both clh and spto are both on netflix #you can genuinely claim they're in the same world #like im going to make a whole case on how you can claim they're in the same world #scott pilgrim already operates like a game world #this also plays into the whole “america deadass is the only country with problems everywhere else is chill” thing #captain laserhawk #scott pilgrim #scott pilgrim takes off

Also the reason I don't bother to post or reblog about real life happenings is because most of you are unhinged, don't know what anything actually means, just go with things you hear, and assume the worst of everything and everyone.

#tldr not my clowns not my circus. i can't help every situation everywhere. and I don't trust any of you. #jinouchi.txt #also also from what I've seen a good chunk of y'all actually want people dead but are claiming most other people who don't want people dead #like a lot of y'all are psycho straight up like be normal

hey heads up !!! if any of u guys post tcm art, pls b wary of this person. they have reposted a very hefty amount of my mutuals (+ other artists tcmg fanart) uncredited, from both here and other platforms. they downright refused to take down the art i had drawn for a commission, along with their other posts, with the only explanation they had being that they had “no time” to credit anyone in their posts 🤦🏻‍♂️

i tried to explain to them how this was disrespectful calmly, they refused to not do it— so i called them out publicly, and then they blocked me 💀💀💀

#the texas chainsaw massacre game #tcm #im not sure if they ever took down the posts bc well… i cant see them..! #telling me that ‘its the internet’ and its ‘not that serious’ #yet you cant seem to handle being told a very simple request; to credit the artists by name #and then blocking me… and then trying to claim ur being harassed.. when ur the one who started this— and simply wont just apologize #tiktok report system is hot ass so. i gotta make this callout post everywhere lmao #btw me and all of the people who are asking them to credit the artists and take down their posts.. have been literally just explaining why #this is wrong and why they need to take it down #its crazy how disrespectful people in this fandom r already holy shit 😭

With the base skin Ramattra orb I made recently, I figured... what's stopping me from sculpting more of them?

So here's another one :P Poseidon skin this time. It was made quicker than the OG but it looks even more like a mess than the first one, ooops. Probably has to do with the black color hiding the imperfections better...

#Borb's Scribbles #Overwatch #Ramattra #i still like it well enough :P #finding the right values for the grey and blue was a pain #the silver was originally much darker but then it and the blue waves kind of blended together and looked awful #too bad i can't paint on metallic or glowing effects #if i did the orb would look unnatural in 99.9% of lightning scenarios #the base skin orb has been vibing on my keys since it was finished #with the poseidon orb added to the mix i can claim that i walk around everywhere with ramattra's balls LMAO

a dreaded sunny day // don't blink

#my art #angels #angel headstones are a little hard to find & often broken or fallen over #(dramatically & symbolically i guess) #anyways this cemetery (first five pictures) is a really cool much older one probably one of the oldest in the city #& there are these big old yew trees everywhere & huge headstones toppled over #the oldest person in it was born in 1787. 237 years ago. which is before aotearoa was colony-claimed #her momunet would've been like... four metres tall? but it was on the ground in two peices #but even the base was taller than i was #she was scottish #i could probably edit these to make them look bette rbut i always end up messing around with the colours too much

Does Jeremy just live in the DC area?

Not really Jeremy no longer has a set home, so he can go anywhere, he's only in the D.C Capital cause he's only recently left his vault and has only made his travels as far as Megaton. He will eventually travel to the other states, after all he has a certain Mr. Deegan hat to snatch. He's a lil Lone Wanderer

waddle waddle waddle

#lookit him goooooo #hoping this lil animation works well my brick of a laptop struggles so much lol #But yeh he doesn't live anywhere specific in the D.C. area as he more wanders around just looking for food and things to take #but he sure claims everywhere in D.C. as his hahaha #fallout oc #Fallout Goose #Fallout 3 #Fallout
