If you were my boyfriend I’d swaddle you in blankets and make out with you btw. I’d give you a winter jacket if you were cold and we were going on a walk.

#honestly with the way people dress for winter me being the only one wearing a jacket is unfortunately common #boyfriend yearning hours #mlm thoughts #mlm #mlm yearning

What are you still doing here ? The shop is gonna close soon. (Come closer)

#chilaios #chilchuck tims #laios thorden #dont mind me feeding the troops #(manga spoilers) anyone thinks about laios dressing up like the common guy he used to be instead of what duty demands of him #and coming to visit chil's lockpick store at hours where he'll lessen the risk of being recognized (or bringing gossip to chil's workplace) #haha ok. okay #just cooking my stew (art tag) #image described in alt text

the more i think about Oppenheimer the more disappointed i get because at its core it’s such an interesting story to tell. like the whole manhattan project catapulted the entire world into a new atomic era that we could never go back from whether we were ready for it or not. and the fallout from the project not only changed and devastated the lives of hundreds of thousands of people (including of course the victims in hiroshima and nagasaki + the people living in new mexico where they tested the bomb) and the continued generational trauma of the bombs. also just the general mass panic and fear that the Cold War instilled into every citizen in the states who were literally waiting to one day be just annihilated by a nuclear attack. the whole creation of the atomic bomb had so much impact on the world. so doing a deep character study of both oppenheimer and his colleagues on the moral ambiguity of their work in the project and the outcome of it is such a great movie concept. but the film didn’t feel like that at all. instead Nolan gave us the watered down story that he’s best at and spent almost three hours forcing us to watch whether oppenheimer had to lose his disneyland government fast-pass due to his communist ties or not (spoiler: he does) and how strauss doesn’t like him because he got his feewlings hurt once. all the other scientists and physicists were given one or two minutes of screen time and were really just names to a face. the actual bombs creation was given a sidelong glance and trivial explanation at best. and of course to tie it all off the main female side characters were either naked/having sex for 80% of their screen time or was given the character depth of a piece of tissue paper

#oppenheimer #oppenheimer spoilers #oppenheimer negativity #I’ve had all day to think on this and the more i do the sadder i get #i wanted to like this film so much #i thought we were gonna be given a deep dive into this character and the bomb #but the result felt shallow and contrived #the movie focuses so much on fitting as much info as possible in three hours that the story just couldn’t breathe #scenes between characters lasted all of two minutes before we were launched into another scene to two new characters #and oppenheimers personal motivation/desires just felt ambiguous the entire time #like he busts his ass to build this bomb but then all the sudden develops a moral compass when it’s done? #where’s the character depth?? what makes him so passive about some things then suddenly driven for others? #and Florence and Emily Blunt were ripped off and characters were reduced to common tropes #it’s just so disappointing….i waited all year for this movie too

And with your help we can make it 60-80%

#i saw sooooooooo much lichen yesterday. peace and love on planet earth. #huge clumps of reindeer lichen which was really cool because it's not super common around here. and it grows so slowly #so big clumps are a good sign re: the health of that particular area. #also saw pixie cups which are my favorite. if you don't have a favorite lichen.....you better fix that😐 #sorry to any new followers it's not always atla tlok hours here. sometimes i have to lichenpost.

[relaxxattack]

every time someone calls moirallegience just an alien qpr i wilt a lil like YEAH thats more or less the CLOSEST human thing but its also Literally Not That. like a qpr is fundanmentally not romantic and thats not even going into moirails whole Actual Purpose of calming ppl down. its just. aughhhhh pisses me off i see the confusion but, as aformentioned, aughhhhh

OH MY GOD THIS HAS BEEN BOTHERING ME TOO.... but i don't want to get petty at the people in my notes always saying "moirails are QPRs!" because in some ways that is the closest human thing so it's hard to be mad...

i think there's definitely some overlap in some ways. but NOT because moirallegiance and qprs are the same at all really, but INSTEAD because both relationships have unconventional boundaries defined by the people within them.

you know... like every relationship.

like the only reason the two have overlap is because they are both partnerships that emotionally care for each other but can choose to not bang (which is true for any romance anyway, even if it's considered abnormal). they're both just romances* that are unconventional to human norms, which makes people view them as the same thing when they're not.

i think the REAL issue here is that humans insist on using human words to understand things that are just, fundamentally, alien. can't we just appreciate alien romance for being... alien romance?

no, it's not platonic, it's romantic. it's just romantic in a way you aren't quite wired to understand, is all.

*in generalization, most QPRs are not romantic, because they are made up of aroaces who are life partners in a non-romantic way. however i want to disagree with you that none of them are romantic, because that is up to the partners in question.

#quadrants #homestuck #moirallegiance #BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS FOR SO LONG OMG THANK YOU FOR THE ASK #its just i USED to think they were the same #and then recently i kept getting pissy when people said they were the same so i was like. okay let's unpack this #what's the overlap here and what's the differences? #and really people THINK theyre the same because they think theyre both like. 'im gonna platonically marry my friend!' ^w^ #(which is obviously not actually what either of them are like. lol) #when REALLY what they have in common is 'hey you're a person i want to have a committed partnership. but potentially not sex or tradition' #and it's not really fair to compare them because they come from totally different places and have totally different standards #QPR was created as an ALTERNATIVE to allonorms. its about saying 'hey lets make up our own rules. my life partner can be platonic if i want #whereas moirallegiance IS a norm and its not counter any culture. it's just 'trolls have biological romantic feelings/needs in This way.' #idk idk how to explain it any further because ive spent a fucking hour on this post and i have a massive headache so feel free to ask me-- #more specific questions if the shit i said here doesnt make any sense (；￣ー￣).. #<- wow haha the troll fictive autism really jumped out with this post huh. whoops #hsmeta #long post #op

i just played ghost trick for the first time and my main takeaway is that this is probably the biggest w for cat people ever in the history of video games

#ghost trick #ghost trick phantom detective #i knew going in this game was a cult classic and i see why #i’m shocked at how good this game’s story is for only being 10 hours long #it was made by the guy that makes ace attorney and you can totally feel the ace attorney blood in this game #but the one thing they don’t have in common is the pacing #ie ghost trick isn’t slow as tar #and i FUCKING LOVED that

[wanderingcas]

*throws a destiel slow burn with a twisty plot where cas doesn't remember dean but dean painfully remembers cas and their relationship and it's eating him alive as cas regains his memories but still doesn't remember dean in your general direction*

enjoy <3

cold fruit in a hot kitchen (so i had this great watermelon last weekend)

#so I had this great watermelon last weekend. and the thing is it probably wasn't even that great of a watermelon #but I was four hours into an eight hour shift and we had thrown out all the watermelon salad because no one was eating it #and then our manager ran in and yelled that the client really fucking wanted watermelon salad. #so like six of us servers started frantically chopping watermelon. and the kitchen got really hot #in the way it does when everyone inside it is really stressed because there's no fucking watermelon salad #and after we chopped all the watermelon and the client got their fucking watermelon we all had a moment #where we looked at the remaining watermelon and we were so hot and cocktail hour was almost over anyway and the salads were all plated #and we all went for the watermelon and we ate it with the kind of rabid intensity you only get while eating cold watermelon in a hot kitche #and it was the best watermelon I have ever tasted and several days later i am still chasing the high of that fucking watermelon #and the thing is i know it isn't even the watermelon i'm actually missing #it's the feeling of cool liquid on hot skin and the feeling of a crisis averted and the feeling of camaraderie #that comes with devouring a watermelon in a hot kitchen with six other people who you have nothing in common with except that watermelon. #i don't dream of labor but i am dreaming now of being 4 hours into an eight hour shift eating watermelon in a hot kitchen. #i dream of laughing around the cold fruit in my mouth. I crave that watermelon like i'll die without it. #< honest to god this is real and that watermelon left such an impact on me that i had to draw it and write this. having a normal one #maybe this is insane but working in a team of people you truly like to do something you actually enjoy is so underrated #if only they fucking paid me i could work as a server for the rest of my life. unironically #skribbles

#gif #why do I have to spend every christmas and every birthday alone #for what am I being punished #I am a good person #and I don’t think this suffering has any sense #it’s just that in life the happy people have good things coming their way #and the sad people always just get more trauma #I know I could have a relationship if I didn’t have such a traumatic childhood #my trauma lets me reject the good guys and waste my time with the aholes #but i don’t know what to do about it #every nice guy I met absolutely wasn’t attractive to me #and we also didn’t have anything in common #so I’m not even regretting rejecting them cause it wouldn’t have worked out #and they deserve someone who actually fancies them #i just wonder why I never met a nice guy that I have common interests with #or who matched my preferences lookwise #it really feels like I’m simply not allowed to ever meet the right person #and gotten to the point where I swipe for hours have a lot of matches and then ghost everyone #as I just know it either will be someone nice but not attractive to me or an ahole #I just don’t have any energy left anymore #I just want to experience love so bad but can’t do these dates anymore #I’m so so tired

Here is the truth! Kabru, being trained from a young age in swordmanship by a navigated warrior, knows that fencing is useless against monsters. Laios and the gang seldom used weapons to defeat their preys.

Think about it: swords have been the first weapon not born as a tool or a hunting implement, with the specific purpose of killing other human beings. There is a well tought out rationale behind the shape and form of a sword and they informed how weapon systems developed in time and space to take advantage of it, and vice versa. The all metal, tang thru the handle contruction of a conventional sword gives a tactile response everytime any part of the blade touches anything, a level of resolution not needed if you are up against a beast, but fundamental against a fellow smart human being armed with a weapon you need to track. That feeling of the iron is useless if you can't bind, and you are not binding horns nor fangs let me tell you.

Kui-sensei is so real for aknowledging this fact that is driving me crazy for years. Swords are a shit choice against beasts and monsters and I kind of despise fantasy tropes for spreading the idea.

#kabru dungeon meshi #kabru #swords #fencing #this rant is offered to you by a two hours long tie guan yin tea session #and years of thinking about swords #yet the genre tropes are ther because swords were so rare that the common man didn't know what they really were for #so myths and legends for centuries have painted them as a godly weapon only fit for noble heroes and kings #the folklore wins over facts
