Now I’m just picturing Dazai shows up at work the next day looking like he got mauled and cheerfully announces he and Chuuya are getting married! “Oh, well that’s…. nice, I guess. I didn’t know you two were dating?” “We weren’t!” “….. what.”

YESSSS absolutely, this possessed me to do a short scribble comic lol thank you anon!

Absolutely jumpscared by Goncharov trending after I wrote a whole paper for one of my classes on it.

Anyway, happy 50th anniversary to the greatest mafia movie of all time.

My therapist said to me: "We could create a pros and cons list a mile long and you still wouldn't be any more confident in your decision."

Which... ow. Besides that, it made me think of Tim.

Tim creates contingencies and plans based on what he believes is the best course of action. Yet, what about decisions that don't have a "right answer"?

Does he also freeze up at these decisions and desperately try to find what the best avenue is despite knowing there isn't one? When the situation becomes worse, despite knowing it probably would become worse anyways, does he blame himself? Does he make lists a mile long trying to find the right answer?

Is Tim ever weighed down by the idea that he "always" makes the right decision when he knows he doesn't? Is his status as a great tactician both a balm and a curse? How often does he stare at his choices, especially when the fate of loved ones is on his hands, and break down at what he's left with?

Tim is the man with the plan, but how much does not knowing the correct answer positively wreck his being? Are his contingencies, his desperate bid for information and control, part of his desire to always know his next step forward?

“We’re runnin’ outta time!”

“Why can’t I do this?”

“I’m failing you.”

you know what gets me about this scene? other than my boy crying bc oh god i just wanna hug him i just had to rewatch it bc the raph edits in my fyp are BRUTAL

their expressions

ok not only are they drawn so well (you know what i mean like how well the style is maintained) but it’s the way that each of them look

look at how upset they are after seeing raph fall apart and letting it sit for a sec

LIKE ARE YOU KIDDING ME

LOOK AT MIKEY’S FACE— I WILL SOB.

#how often do you think he’s fallen apart in front of them??? #not cry bc he’s done that multiple times in front of them #but showed how much the pressure gets to him?? #i can only imagine he’d try to lessen these burdens on Leo once he becomes leader #bc lord knows he’d probably do the same as his brother and try carrying it on his own #but raph would be like i ain’t havin none of that #and teaches his bro how to balance things out now that he knows better #but god the way he just deliver ‘im failing you’ absolutely fucking wrecks me #i just wanna grab his face and be like #YOURE ALL DOING THE BEST YOU CAN WITH THE KNOWLEDGE YOU HAVE UNDER CIRCUMSTANCES YOURE NOT PREPARED FOR #ITS OKAY THAT YOU DONT HAVE THE ANSWERS #rottmnt #rottmnt screenshot #rise raph #rise donnie #rise mikey #rise leo

given that i've ran this blog for as many years now i think i should get much credit for this being what, only the third dick joke i've ever made here hdfkhkj

anyways. there's this point in the story where vash and wolfwood have to go their separate ways for a while, but neither of them are dealing with it particularly well

(image id below the cut since it's a longer one)

[image ID: a rough, doodley 5 panel digital comic of vash and meryl from trigun, but from my leaden skies au where they've both been lightly redesigned to fit into the setting of monster hunter. vash is a wyverian with long pointed ears, wearing a red coat with gold trim and buttons. meryl is a human wearing a beret as seen on other guild girls, but her all-white outfit is a practical two-piece blouse and shorts set. the whole comic is comprised of warm colors, orange and yellow and dark purple

panel 1: vash sitting in the foreground at a brown desk covered in candles and books, with a book opened in front of him that he flips through with a bored expression and his cheek resting against his hand. he appears to be in a library, lit by candles on dark grey chandeliers hung from the ceiling. meryl is in the background stretching up to reach a book high on a shelf, and beside her is a table which is also covered in candles and several tall stacks of books

panel 2: a closeup of vash's face as his eyes widen and his ears prick up. something in the book has apparently caught his attention

panel 3: a closeup of the page vash was looking at, an illustrated info sheet about the flying wyvern, khezu. a candle in the table brightly illuminates the colored page

panel 4: meryl has come around by vash's shoulders with a stack of books held in her arms. she quirks a brow as she looks over vash's shoulder at the book. vash has a neutral, hard to read look on his face, but his ears are still up and his eyes are still shiny and wide as he seems to consider the page for a while

panel 5: a yellow word bubble comes from vash, who huffs a long sigh and says, "maybe i should call him...". his head has tipped to the side as he rubs his neck and frowns, blushing a little with his ears drooping. meryl physically recoils from him and her face scrunches up in disgust, saying, "eww" and, "there's something wrong with you"

end ID.]

Thinking about how when Gillion wakes up from his first Rakshasa-induced nightmare and is so, so shaken, how Chip instantly 1) gets it because he's been through it and 2) realizes Gill probably won't be able to put it into words and wouldn't want to anyway, and so 3) he immediately offers the bracelet to Gill so that Gill can show him.

Like that last point, let's just look at that for a second. The last time, those bracelets didn't work out too well! Gill found out about the call with Edyn and that Chip had been keeping it from him. It did not end well for Chip at all.

But he offers them again. A show of trust and repentance. But also an offer to share the burden of the nightmares and the curse. It's a way to show Gill that he doesn't have to carry the pain alone. Show me. Let me carry some of the weight with you. Let me into literally the most private place you have -- your own mind -- and let me see what hurts you the most.

And Gill does! He trusts Chip with that! He let's him! Gill, who carries the world on his shoulders opens up and allows Chip in to help him carry this.

The emotional vulnerability and the support!!!!

#I'm so weak for this #i don't know if it's because I'm ace or what but Gill letting Chip see the nightmare legitimately took my breath away #because that to me feels so unbelievably intimate #like married couples have sex that is less intimate than that to me #which again i might just feel that way because I'm ace but holy shit #let me see the thing that makes you feel the weakest #let me see your biggest vulnerability #the thing that hurts you the most #trust me with that knowledge and let me help you carry the burden of it #jfc end me #jrwi riptide #jrwi fnc

What would Wei say? (🔞choices below the cut)

➡️"So can you make multiple copies of me here?"

➡️"How about you make a bunch of other Damiens?"

*Links above lead to gratuitous, self-indulgent smut. Definitely not safe for work.

Behold, the fruit of the bashful Chen poll. It was meant to be a single pinup-like illustration, but one thing led to another (and with valuable inspiration from @ladyshivs and @extreme-neutral), it ended up as another choose your own smut 😌😌.

Finished this doodle way sooner than expected but seriously who dressed Finn in the new show. I don't know whether to be scared or proud. This is our boy that wouldn't wear the lady armour even to save himself! (Note I have no idea what's happening in Fionna and Cake, it might not be OUR Finn, but still the statement stands)

LOOK AT HIM! THE JEANS ARE ROLLED UP! I LOVE IT!

Also a moment to appreciate the fact that the moment adult Finn puts back on the hat it looks like the same boy face we know + a fake beard slapped onto a GIANT man body. I think all the other times we've seen him older he wasn't wearing the exact same hat, and I now understand why. It's just so silly.

#Even with the hat Adult Finn is still hot tho #and I am so mad that I find him attractive #mostly because 13yr old me that crushed on younger Finn would 100% be flipping me off going “I told you so” #and I gotta just keep going with that knowledge #like the burden of my own existence wasnt enough #I missed the boys and that new trailer was dope #fionna and cake #adventure time #I know this was from the trailer but Im gonna tag this as spoilers just in case #spoilers #there I did my part #dont @ me about not being considerate #finn the human #finn mertens #jake the dog

the absolute lack of media literacy from people who haven’t even seen oppenheimer is making my head spin but whatever

#like - every three seconds it’s someone talking about how it’s us military prop or it doesn’t cover the atrocities well etc etc #when a) it is so definitely NOT us propoganda- it is so clearly critiquing the us military and oppenheimer himself #and b) it doesn’t cover every small detail of the impacts of the bomb bc that’s not what the film is about #it is a screenplay adapted from a biography on oppenheimer #it is about him - a biopic - and how he got to the point of making atomic weapons and ends on a note of undeniable horror #it is a movie that constantly bombards you with anxiety bc you have the burden of knowing the future #it is not in any way forgiving anything - it acknowledges the fucked up nature of the situation #hell it’s mostly a courtroom drama that shows how fucked up mccarthyism was #i’m a big history buff - so this plays a lot into it #but y’all have GOT to just stop seeinf things on a surface level and engage with media w/ a deeper mindset of just ‘thing bad’ #anyway - sorry it bothers me a lot #there are genuine criticims that can be leveled at both nolan and this film and i have seen them #im not sitting here calling the end all be all of cinema - but it’s a well made movie w/ something interesting to say and evaluate #not wanting to see it is one thing - by all means - but wringing it through the mud w/ absolutely no knowledge of the actual content of - #the film itself is actively annoying #media literacy #oppenheimer #mini rant
