Istg I haven't written since MIDDLE SCHOOL why do I keep getting bombarded with good ideas that I only I can write 😭😭😭😭😭
#just had a bunch of ideas to fix the yellow lantern jess concept and have it function as a concrete and vital step in her character arc#(of the same importance of power ring)#and just like the image of a scene where the sinestro corps is attacking a planet for some reason or another inspiring fear (and maybe for a#decent reason bc jess needs SOME motive to stay with them but STILL fear bad)#and shes trying to make them stop but theyre not stopping. and then the GLC shows up and starts fighting the YLC.#and jess is trying to get it to stop but no one is listening to her#like none of the earth lanterns are there no kne she knows#although maybe arisia and other gls WE know pretty well are there. i think arisia should get to go one on one w sinestro as leaders of both#forces. ANYWAYS jess is trying to get it to stop and protect the people (who are TERRIFIED of her) but no one is stopping#anyways something something green lanterns are dying and instead of going out into space their rings start going towards jess#like it starts with just one and shes shocked then two then three and she starts talking with them denying her place with them until its a#whole CLOUD of rings (uhhh nevermind the corps just dying here sorry 😬. no one we care abt though)#anyways and then something buzzes and ripples from underneath her suit#she lets it free and its HER ring tied around her neck#and shes like not you too and the ring is like yes me too and says its not about not being afraid its about OVERCOMING fear#and just like idk. i could fix her (yellow lantern jess arc)#dc hire me asap#hopefully this makes sense. again i have not read those comics yet other than a good amt of panels BUT#im reading her power ring era right now and like... its all coming together#anyways anyways thinking about jess a LOT tonight#95% of those posts are in my drafts though#including my super long YL!Jess character arc meta which this is deeply related too#but we're not talking abt that right now swishy!!!! you are SUPPOSED to be doing your spanish project due tomorrow at midnight which you#have barely started!!!!#its study time not superhero plot bunny time!!!!!#blah#swishy writing#swishy aus#nothing in the post itself but the tags deserve these tags

Trigun Bookclub: Trigun Vol.1, Chapter #06
previous | all | next
I’m doing a deep-read of the Japanese original print (reread) and Overhaul 1.0 (first read) side-by-side, and writing down everything I notice from small details, version differences, translation differences, etc.
Here are the non-analysis meow meow panels (only 2 today, sorry 😔)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And the rest is under the cut.
[link for if the images aren’t in horizontal rows]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I really love the "train conductor/bus driver/etc puts themself in danger to protect the passengers" trope- NOOOOOOOOOO COOL CONDUCTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Small correction: These first onomatopoea are actually...flesh sounds...... And I wasn't really thinking about corrections for this one, more just for nuance, but Neon says something like "it's unfortunate, but..." in this line.
Tumblr media
A small difference here: in my version it's actually CO2, not oxygen that's being supplied to the Heat Plant. However, considering that O2 is a fuel for combustion and CO2 is a byproduct, it may be an error on Nightow's part.
This is one of the first indications of who Kaito actually is. He knows all of this off the top of his head, which catches the Captain by surprise.
It also provides information about Plants. This could either mean that all Plants require some kind of fuel, or that the Plants can utilize those resources in some other way to help the Sandsteamer.
Tumblr media
Get graphited idiot.
We also get to see more of Kaito's attachment to this Sandsteamer.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here, the original line is more like "Why would Brilliant Dynamites Neon have to listen to you when this treasure—the prey I've been hunting—is right in front of me!?"
This is where I notice that Neon has a sort of obsession with "beauty," not just in the regular sense but also in his own way. He obviously values visuals—his over-the-top fashion and desire to go out with a bang—but to him, it's also a question of dignity. (this will be on the exam yall)
Tumblr media
Even the gang member is getting worried about what Neon might do to Kaito... And here's where we find out why Kaito knows so much and wants to protect the Sandsteamer!
Tumblr media
Notes on the original phrasing of this line, since I saw a few posts comparing the Dark Horse and Overhaul versions.
The Japanese line is「パッと散りな 小僧」 パッ(pa') is an onomatopoea for "pop," "poof," or a release (e.g. letting go of an object). 散る(chiru, used here in command form) means "scatter," most commonly associated with falling cherry blossom petals. From that, it's also a euphemism for dying. i can go on for another paragraph on the association of cherry blossoms with Japanese views on life/death but you can figure that out. or google it idk
I think this line is another excellent representation of Neon's values on beauty and death.
Tumblr media
I love this page so much!! The flow comes to a complete stop, and the tension that has been building throughout the last few pages is at its peak here. The composition is also excellent. The art is symmetrical, and Neon's giant outfit follows the lines leading from the bottom corners of the page up to Vash's gun, where they intersect right in the middle. I JUST LOVE THESE KINDS OF COMPOSITIONS SO MUCH.....
can't remember why i wrote "sike" there
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It took a while to figure out what happened here, but I think Vash either sensed danger or actually dodged a bullet, and chose to jump back out. Love the way he's firmly holding Kaito's overalls while Kaito doesn't understand anything that's going on lol
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The silly goofies... theyre screaming crying shitting themselves out there....
It's a bit hard to see, but Kaito is screaming "AAAHHH PULL ME UPPP" in the middle panel.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This exchange after the two get to safety is also so silly... There's a missing "whrrrr drill drill" SFX for Vash's drill hand (?). I saw a photo of the Dark Horse version which was missing it in the same way, with the leftover ン on Vash's cheek.
I forgot to highlight it, but this note pertains to Vash's second speech bubble about death and destruction. The Japanese version of the line is something like "I swear!! I have at least 2 digits' worth of death-gods(死神) or poverty-gods(貧乏神) haunting me!!" Death-gods/shinigami are already well-known in the West so I won't explain that here. The second one, poverty-god/binbōgami, is a similar kind of thing, except it brings poverty to whoever it clings onto (instead of death). Fun fact: Binbōgami are said to like yakimiso (grilled miso paste).
Tumblr media
VASH'S SOUPY BRAIN!!! The mystery has been solved!!!
But first, in order... Vash's first line is more like "We can't be worrying about all this right now." It could keep the original phrasing, but the main idea is to change "me" to "us."
The next (most important) line is actually "We gotta save brainpower [for the matter at hand]." The confusion lies in the word 脳みそ, which literally translates to "brain miso," but is actually the word for brain tissue, and thus brainpower. It has nothing to do with miso soup! The origin I wrote in the middle-left of the image is...dubious.... I told my mom about this just now, and she mentioned that it might be called that because みそ(miso) also means the center or key aspect of something. Weblio also says it signifies innards (like from crab or shrimp), similar to what I wrote in the annotation at first. I'll fix it in the document later
Also, I would phrase the last line as "I mean, we're gonna stop this ship, right!?"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Kaito's skills are actually insane. What do you mean you just copied the entire blueprint... Mistranslation: The respect is directed towards his dad, so it should be "You must really look up to your dad."
I didn't know his name was spelled Kaite in this version. My Japanese version copy has that bottom part in a regular speech bubble, and with the font for the boxes. It's most likely just a version-exclusive error. He also says that his dad "found" the ship, but I'm not sure if that's another error or not since this translation makes more sense.
Tumblr media
This line is phrased more like "Just for a little bit of cash, I'm now taking advantage of you for a deal with a crook."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I really loved the execution of this scene in the '98 anime. get hammered into the ground boy The final line is from Kaito, not Vash, and should be "...Yeah!!"
And that’s it for Chapter #06! Sorry for the wait, I couldn't work on this as much as I'd liked because of the smoke and rainstorm, combined with weekend responsibilities. Feeling better now though 💪 As always, the Japanese annotations are in the reblogs.
~~~
Bonus: reactions to the soupy-brained Vash post

Dabi x reader (with minor x bakugou)
Prompt: During the USJ incident the villains kidnapped you. UA has been on high alert after that incident, metal detectors at gates, students having to check in during breaks on campus, and more. You have been at the villain bar ever since, quirkless thanks to All For One, and with no memory of UA or your life before it. When Dabi started hanging around the bar, he became attached to you, playfully teasing you for being forgetful. Things fall apart when Bakugou is captured during the summer camp training and he gets to see you, his stolen s/o again.
-When you woke up in a wood panel room with no memory you panic and look for a way out
-The door was unlocked so you opened it, found an empty hallway with the staircase at the end, so you go down it
-Its only kurogiri there at the bar, you look towards the door and bolt for it
-Kurogiri terrified you at first
-Kurogiri just teleports you upstairs
-It repeats for about three more times before you come down and hug the wall asking who he is
-“Kurogiri.” he makes a glass of apple juice and puts it on the bar counter. You walk over and take it
-“Are you hungry?” “yeah”
-He starts asking about you, gauging to see what you remember
-He makes you food and keeps talking to you
-He tells you you can’t go outside yet
-You ask him if he knows why you have amnesia and he says you had a mental break of sorts
-Your family left you in their care with no phone number
-Shigaraki comes in, he’s very demanding and childish
-You all get to know each other, you play minecraft with shigaraki, specifically those hunger games ones
-He gets better, calms down and learns how to be more strategic
-You never meet all for one, and shigaraki and kurogiri are careful never to mention him around you
-Enter: dabi
-Shigaraki HATES him lmao. He hates how Cool and Chill he is
-So he saddles dabi with babysitting you, and he lets dabi take you outside
-Dabi keeps a hand on your wrist the whole time, he never lets you out of his sight and he doesn’t let you let go
-You two had never talked outside of introducing yourselves
-You happily thread your hand through his and tug him through the shopping district
-You’re constantly talking to him and wanting to explore so he goes along with it, sticking to the busier parts of the shopping districts to help blend in
-He has on glasses, a beanie, and a face mask so no one can see him
-There are cameras that identify you in the district so UA is alerted. The heroes immediately head out to get you back, the local police are alerted
-Dabi notices that there are more police around, he doesn’t even know what you’re doing at the villain hideout all the time. All he knows is you have amnesia and that you’re quirkless. He immediately withdraws his hand from yours and slings it across your shoulders. He leads you into a shop, “follow my lead, doll.”
-He picks out a dark pair of sunglasses for you, sloppily restyling your hair and picking out a big jacket and a new outfit for you
-He rips the tags off them and says to change and wait outside the dressing rooms. He comes back to get you, giving you a face mask too
-There are police and heroes there in the whole area. Dabi tightens his arm around your shoulder and walks faster. He’s calling kurogiri trying to coordinate a way out.
-The police and heroes are going through the crowd picking certain people removing glasses and masks. 
-The whole area is closed off, there is no way to a private spot for kurogiri to open a portal
-Dabi calls someone else
-And then someone behind you says excuse me
-Dabi’s fingers loosen off your shoulder and his palm starts to hover so he can move his hand if needed
-He slowly turns the both of you around
-Its a kid
-‘You guys dropped this’
-Its a bracelet you bought
-You say thanks and take it back
-The kid blanches. He grabs a piece of his hair and awkwardly scratches it, then throws it to the ground
-Its a purple ball
-Seriously what the fuck
-Dabi panics and moves his hand
-Nothing comes out
-All might is running at you yelling to let go of one of his students
-But you arent his student
-Does he mean the kid in front of you
-Dabi is panicking youre both stuck in place
-And then the floor falls under your feet
-Dabi puts his palm back on your shoulder pressing down to keep you close
-And you fall into the bar hideout, shigaraki pacing and toga, twice, and shuichi all watching you
-Toga is asking about deku, twice comments how uncool it is for dabi to not even say a villain one liner to the heroes and shuichi is grateful you guys are back but thinks dabi is an idiot for not keeping on moving
-It unconsciously puts a target on dabi’s back, the heroes cannot have it confirmed that the masked man who had you was in league with the league of villains
-Twice, toga, and shuichi all take turns hanging out with you
-Twice likes to be dramatic so you guys get screenplays and act out scenes together
-Toga likes to do boy talk and make up and shop online
-Shuichi likes to watch anime. The sword fighting ones that are super philosophical. Kill la kill. Attack on titan. THAT philosophical stuff.
-They go away on missions often but they always come back with stuff, plants, flowers, something from the outside world
-You have not been able to go back out after the shopping district incident
-Dabi realizes from your amnesia you cant read
-He bought you a very cheesy very embarrassing very risque manga
-He teaches you to read, do math and you learn it all very very fast
-Its more remembering than relearning
-He also brings music
-You all have small dance parties together and kurogiri doesn't mind
-Shigaraki is NOT invited he just stands and. Watches. Its unsettling.
-Kurogiri teaches you how to make drinks in a flashy bartender style
-Dabi tests out what you make
-You two typically spend time casually but movie nights with you all is fun
-And then they have a big mission to go on
-He has to go to a forest camping trip to take one of the students
-Hes gone for about three hours before coming back 
-Kurogiri and shigaraki have you go upstairs
-They lock you in
-You can hear angry yelling and then it gets muffled
-You go to sleep for the night
-You wake up from the door being unlocked and yelling
-Dabi pulls your blankets back and you are immediately awake
-A little embarrassed to be caught in your star and rainbow pajamas
-He puts one hand under your chin and makes you look at him
-Toga is behind him saying not to
-Twice is saying that theyre being rude for barging in
-Dabi talks “what do you remember?”
-“I don’t remember anything.”
-He turns to twice and toga “told you everything is fine”
-He looks at you, “remember that outfit from the shopping district? Change into it. We have a guest”
-Its a simple outfit, a big hoodie, casual jeans and a white t shirt with a smiley face heart on it
-You step out of your room and dabi is in his same outfit
-He puts a hand on your shoulder and saunters down the stair with you
-He looks smug
-You come downstairs and there is a boy with spiky blond hair yelling muffled things from behind a steel mask
-His hands are bound too
-You think that this must not be a nice guy
-Shigaraki is hunched over at the bar while twice and toga are laying on the couch
-Spiky haired blond boy looks surprised to see you
-Dabis hand drops to your waist and spiky hair’s eyes follow it
-He looks angry and starts thrashing
-You take a step back but dabi’s hand keeps you in place
-“Are you willing to listen now?”
-Dabi takes a seat in a one person chair and you sit on the armrest
-Shigaraki gives a big long winded speech about everything wrong with society and how heroes are not bettering society but protecting the one thats already in place
-Dabi eventually gives you a tug and sits you in his lap
-Spiky hair has his eyes on you the whole time and he starts yelling again when dabi puts a hand on your knee and rests his chin on top of your head
-You don’t like this kid, he seems violent
-Thats how the first day of bakugo’s kidnapping goes
-Bakugou has to sit and see you his upper classmen crush sit in the lap of a villain and look at him with fear
-You’ve been here this whole time, why haven’t you left?
-Shigaraki wants you two to play this up, wants dabi to pursue you and rile you up in order to help break bakugou’s spirit
-Enter fake dating au
-Becomes real when all might saves you and dabi almost loses you when one for all forcefully opens the portal
-Bakugou is so angry to have you then lose you again
-You and dabi live happily ever after uwu

everyone talkin about the king jumpin off the building at the end of fallen kingdom and how sad it is but everyone is forgetting the part from take back the night where the master villager guy was crushed by the spike flail. like fellas. the king survived. he survived the entire thing, but that master guy is like actually dead. 
you know what? time to do a rundown on this original minecraft plus one parody series (take back the night, find the pieces, and dragonhearted are all original songs)
so first of all, let me point out something about fallen kingdom. people dont seem to notice it in the first listen and sometimes they never figure it out but the majority of it is actually a flashback. notice the king’s beard is longer in the night time scenes and everything’s broken. like, of course the king isn’t dead. how would he be walkin around after all that shit happened in the destruction if he was??? anyway, lets move on to something i spent too much time writing.
those songs introduced so many characters that are all unique but arent explored really at all (mostly because the songs dont tell much of a story. just the bare minimum because thats about as much as you can do with minecraft parodies.)
 like the guard with the nose itch,
Tumblr media
these fellas
Tumblr media
and the archer
Tumblr media
like you cant really notice it while youre dancing and stuff but these guys are pretty cool to me. notice in the second image of the guard, his mustache is bigger. this shows that time has passed from the flashback on the left and the flashback on the right. it’s showing how the characters age. might just be me but that sort of thing really shows that these characters have lives. the pigs you can tell someone put effort into their designs and the archer you can kind of tell he’s confused and has seemingly never really had to shoot at anyone before
and then onto the more “subtley characterized” characters
the queen
Tumblr media
you can tell all the violence is too much for her. she cries as she watches her husband take the sword and go outside. other characters in reaction to the mobs simply grabbed weapons and fought back whereas the queen was just crying. granted we dont see many citizens fighting back against them at all but you get my point.
the three villagers from the search party
Tumblr media
you can tell the white and green ones are more experienced. the brown one seems jumpy, frightened, and confused. the white one silently grieves when the green one tells them that the mother is dead.
...and now onto the more heavily focused characters
the pig king
Tumblr media
surprisingly, the pig king isn’t really shown to do much other than sit around. they make it seem like he’s the one in charge of everything though. he’s important but he’s not shown as much. just wanted to get him out of the way cause this was a cool screenshot
the pig commander guy
Tumblr media
this guy just screams “cocky bastard”. literally every time he’s onscreen he either has a smirk or is reacting to something else. bonus for his little science man on the right. he doesn’t show up again (to my knowledge) but you can tell exactly what kind of character he is. we’ve all seen the “science man raises one finger as the boss ignores him” scene. anyway, back to the cocky guy.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this scene really i think shows his character the best. mustache man here is cornered and afraid and resorts to crying and giving up. this pig guy mocks him for a second before raising his sword.
the trio from the beginning of find the pieces
Tumblr media
the chef is another character you can kind of get. like, he’s your basic “happy neighbor pal” or.. or just you know. “the buddy”. he’s sittin there cooking and he’s real happy about it until the hero bursts into the room and he drops the bowl. he takes a second to see who did it and when he sees the hero he laughs about it. like a “ha ha classic hero”. his expression on the bottom is a fading smile after the hero explains a dream he had. this is important for later so hold onto that.
the farmer.
Tumblr media
you can tell he’s just done with life. he’s living basically on autopilot at this point. he looks like he’d wear the “i really wish i weren’t here right now” pin. you can kind of see bored and “done with everyone’s shit” and maybe a bit of vague “nostalgia sadness” yknow? also, this is off-topic but this panel makes for a great meme template. go ahead and use it please thank you.
the scientist
Tumblr media
honestly? this guy doesnt have any characterization other than “i am the smart”. like he’s just the guy that gets the scroll off the shelf and tells the hero about the kingdom. but i do really like this character nonetheless. you really know exactly what kind of person he is because you’ve seen this kind of person so many times before.
Tumblr media
ok so. remember before when i was talking about the chef and told you to remember something? notice the colors of these three’s robes. these might be the same villagers from the search party. this could explain why the hero went to these three villagers and why the cook lost his smile when he heard the hero’s story and why the scientist had a map and knew about the kingdom. the farmer was the confused jumpy guy before but now it seems like nothing can phase him. this might be because he didnt really get to do anything and he wasn’t involved as much because he was just the backpack guy. ‘s also why he doesnt do much here either. that might be a stretch but idc man let me theorize.
also they show up again later
Tumblr media
the scientist is the one designing all the iron golems and planning where they patrol during the big fight scene in dragonhearted. the scene is set up in a way that makes it seem like he is crushed and killed by big robo pig herobrine. this is not the case though. 
all three are seen later in the final scene. theyre not dead (thank god)
Tumblr media
anyway lets talk about the master
Tumblr media
sorry for the weird stretching btw i edited all this in paint from screenshots. anyway uhh so the master. you get a little bit of characterization here from him. a lot of these characters are stereotypes but that’s really expected considering this is a minecraft parody series. theres not a whole lot of talking you can do. this guy is literally the master guy in an action comedy. you can tell what kind of action comedy master you get from this scene alone. he makes the hero stew so he’s obviously a very caring master, and the following scene shows that he has a sense of humor, but hides it just to look cool. the moment he notices someone see him laughing he pretends it never happened. also a small detail here i wanna point out real quick. i love that the villagers can separate their arms here, but i ESPECIALLY love when they put them together. like, they dont always do it but they still do. i just love it. anyway...
Tumblr media
because of this and the fact that the hero and the master were pretty much the only two in the song for a while there, it actually stings when the master is killed. the hero’s reaction is DEFINITELY a factor in this too. this guy was like a second father to him and now this is the second father he’s lost. FUCK i love these songs SO MUCH. i wonder what it would be like if the master ever met the king
note: i didnt characterize the hero, the king, or herobrine given that they are the main main three characters. you can probably figure out their personalities on your own. (well, almost all of them. herobrine doesnt really have much of one other than “occasionally turns into a disney villain when he finds out the king took the eye out of the portal”)
anyway uh, another thing this series really does is just visuals. cool lookin scenes all over the place here.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
like look at this shit. especially the ones from dragonhearted. i think that picture of the golem was used everywhere for a short time and i dont blame them. its an epic shot and i love it.
...and i didnt even include the two classic scenes that you can visualize in your head at any moment
Tumblr media Tumblr media
these two moments are so fucking powerful you don’t understand. like look at these. god. shit, this is just.. hhhh i love this series so much. you know, sometimes i like to think of stupid theories... like imagine if revenge was actually part of this series. it has no effect on the story but it seems to follow the same “rules” (all characters are in hardcore mode is a big one). idk maybe they did happen in the same universe but steve is just a great ancestor to the king or something. anyway, thats all the energy i can spend on one post. it took an hour and a half to write this and grab the screenshots. feel free to add on to this list of things we all love about fallen kingdom and the others.

Tumblr media
OH FUCK OH SHIT OH FUCK IS THIS THE OPENING LETS GO BABY ill listen through nonstop first and then run back to have thoughts
ALRIGHT! so the song itself is a bop, i prefer the previous openings so far but itll probably grow on me
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the first visual is super cute! i like the sudden disjointed ... something or other that they do here where its just the sextuplets in the second shot in a vacuum away from everything else. vibin in the void. if i were to look too deep into it id say itd be that feeling of being lost/listless which is a p common theme in ososan
Tumblr media
origami!
Tumblr media
super cute expressions here 
Tumblr media
and here as well!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i don’t have the words to explain the vibes this gives off but im curious about it and what it could mean in terms of the matsuno parents - a reflection of how they view each other versus themselves? or just a fun visual regarding traditional pencil art, given the comic panels in the back
Tumblr media
also im curious abt who these robot lookin motherfuckers are
Tumblr media
efnejegnj evolution of iyami...
Tumblr media
theyve really been upping the emphasis on appealing visuals of totoko and nyaa in the openings huh... i want to see more scenes of them together honestly! gimme their dynamic!!
Tumblr media
another cute and really fun visual! the matsuno brothers get absolutely fucking obliterated by totoko and nyaas charms. honestly, yeah.
Tumblr media
i like this visual! nothing special to say about it i just. i like it
Tumblr media
then we have the good ol explosion nude runs fnefernkfkne. 
Tumblr media
i am kinda curious about the small bits of where we see the sextuplets paired off though! here we have choukeimatsu (with a bonus of choro with that horrible hair job floating by)
Tumblr media
nenchumatsu, in the process of being blown up,
Tumblr media
(gotta look this one up but its like, younger matsus? starts with an s?) SUEMATSU thats it!
but yeah, i wonder if this is indicate of interactions we’ll be seeing more of? nenchumatsu has interactions we dont see too often aside from that one really awkward scene where they were just fucking dying waiting for the others to get back LMAO
Tumblr media
and then theyre all back together! also why does totty have a middle part in his hair put it back
Tumblr media
OH OH OH THESE! I WANT TO GET SCREENCAPS OF EACH LITTLE POSE
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
sheeh! also, totty and ichi have poses that are pretty similar in the second bit!
and that was the opening!

the 100 diaries S2 E14
quarantine diaries: june 14 2020
season 2 episode 14: “Bodyguard of Lies”
dude got jokes. but they are not funny. oh that guy went boom
Tumblr media
but i wasnt that surprised. this is nothing new in the show. after the biological warfare and the human trafficking nothing has really been that crazy or surprising
“those kids are dangerous.” ummm are they listening to themselves if anyones dangerous its these people
lexa is jealous about bellamy?? i mean she should be cuz bellamy be fine as hell
wow thats cold lexa. but you know what im looking at you right now and telling you “go die” cuz i really dont care for you rn.
those longing glances between lexa to clarke... ship?
was clarke born for this tho? she really isnt that great of a leader
the hat fall down. ahh so poetic. goodbye sean malto. may we meet again
bellamy took down that guy so easy. i also like that bellamy didnt kill the guy tho. what a stand up guy bellamy is.
wick got rid of the stash!!!! he cleaned up for raven didnt he? he reminds me of flynn rider
that hand touch. this is such a ship. way better than finn and raven. also that was the most ship look yet
“lets get our stoichometry on”.. finn who??
how are you alive octavia??? also never pegged octavia to be much of a thinker. so idk why she be think about clarke and how shes alive.
octavias hairstyle really looks like a mullet. ngl kinda reminds me of tiger king
Tumblr media
clarke would fit in so well in the council. ooo and clarke really asked octavia to be lowkey. 
idk about that octavia. shes kinda an idiot like she really jumped into that river day one not even worried that the water might be poisonous or if there would be a creature to eat her
ooo lexa wants to kill octavia. i would be so for that if it werent for bellamy
that grounder with that nose contour
i thought i was a one night thing/fling. apparently not... vincent and bellamy a ship??
bellamy has been moving and working. has he even slept?? like bitch i could never.
how did clarke creep on him?? like this grounder must be the worst assassin if clarke creeped on him 
“sand it blows” thank you murphy for your wisdom
jaha is such a hippie rn. but i guess if you survive a on a missile you can survive anything
idk about that clarke bc i 100 believe that octavia would choose lincoln over bellamy. like she does not listen to bellamy whatsoever but lincoln. it seems like she’ll do anything for him despite the fact that hes like 40 and shes 16.
woah clarked really backed lexa up against that table. and lexa said not you. clarke is confused. clarke you idiot she likes you 
 lexa had to do a breather. ooo and so did clarke. definitely a ship.
yeah you do need a shower murphy you look crusty af
watch the city of lights be a gay night club and thats why everyone is welcome
“i have great follow through” wicks flirting game is strong
i love how we have this fluff then cut to bellamy going full die hard and doing the heavy lifting
“hows my boy monty doing.” wick KNOWS. wick just when up on my list. 
that is pretty trusting to believe that just because of a sign that the mine field is done. like it could just have been a lie
but that looks like a city for me. whats wrong?? im so confused. 
wick and raven trying to help bellamy is so much like young people helping an old person with technology
woah if youre going to go for the kiss GO FOR THE KISS. 
wow this progressed fast. did not expect a kiss between them so soon. she said not yet...leading lexa on smh.
back to back kisses ok. you go raven.
wait waht??? wicks first name is kyle?? wick is a kyle?! oh my gosh did not expect this at all.
Tumblr media
aww bellamy. all that work but i guess that would have been too easy 
bellamy with those two guns!! nice!
bellamy is smarter than i thought. damn ok. who knew??
that could have been the opportunity for the zuko scar but they didnt take it. fine ok.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
but also all that fire but his hair is fine? whatever i guess i love bellamys hair too much to care about logic
raven you need to focus. bellamy cant do this all by himself.
wick said im not here to play games. ok wick. ill try to forget that youre first name is kyle
you are not indestructible octavia. also that was a weird war cry octavia
i still really dont like octavia. maybe its just because i really dont by her as a grounder.
oh. theyre solar panels but from afar it really looked like a city. 
thats amazon prime my boy.

new episode
the fact that Tanjiro gets his sword - literally is only weapon - snapped like a shitty piece of plastic cutlery and still gets right back up to fight Rui is, if nothing else, respectable.
one single attack destroyed the only thing in Tanjiro’s possession capable of killing demons and Tanjiro’s over here like “maybe I can bop him on the head with this hilt”
Inosuke, inches from death, encountering someone really cool he admires a lot “hey fucking fight me”
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
oh inosuke same
absolutely worth mentioning they literally shut off all the music and sound for the last panel. just a pop noise to Giyuu’s face and silence. 
the rope scene is just. top notch visual gag.
like we see Giyuu getting out this big-ass rope with no explanation while Inosuke challenges him to fight. And then it’s 7 seconds of the camera zoomed in on Inosuke’s face as he yells about Tanjiro being wrong. THEN pan out and we see Inosuke’s been tied up in the tree in the meantime. without Inosuke realizing. I’m living.
Giyuu “probably thinks child leashes are a great invention” Tomioka.
both Giyuu and Tanjiro are the Protective friends just polar opposites of the spectrum
Tanjiro - responsible dad friend: looks out for all his friends. gently but firmly scolds them for misbehaving. will put own happiness aside for the happiness of his friends. Giyuu - callous granddad friend: WILL protect his friends, but as curmudgeonly as possible, with no hint he has any emotional investment. "back in my day corporeal punishment was normal and i turned out alright". would probably let children play with swords unsupervised.
Tumblr media
the first (and only) sensible person to appear in this entire arc.
the Rescue Squad’s just fucking... wrapping up spiders to bring back to base. Like I KNOW the spiders are the transformed demon hunters who got infected. but still the sight of them like... swaddling spiders up in blankies for transport is. um. 
EXTRA respect to Tanjiro for never just Putting The Damn Box Down even while he’s getting his ass kicked in this fight. like he’s been carrying his Entire Sister on his back this entire time. Boy’s got the strongest shoulders in anime history
poor Nezuko tho is getting jostled around a shit ton in that box.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
OH. YO. BRO
SO WE ARE NOT FU CK I NG AROUND THIS EPISODE ALRIGHT ALRIGHT ALRIGHT ALRIGHT
I really do like how ANYONE, regardless of whether they are human or demon, is always shocked when they realize Nezuko (a demon) would protect Tanjiro (a human), and vice versa
Rui: is she... is this girl... your sister? Tanjiro: well she WAS before you turned her into mince meat, fucker
Rui slicing his own “older sister” into pieces is really... wow, yikes
Tumblr media
me: -clutches heart at the above frame-
Tanjiro, screaming at the top of his lungs, covered in blood and pointing a broken sword at a demon monster 10 times stronger than him: “OH IM GONNA FUCK YOU UP” Rui:
Tumblr media
I just realized Rui sounds like Shiggy Tomura
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
oh. oh fuck
bro
Tumblr media
BRO
listen if i screen-capped this fight every time it threw me for a fucking loop then this live blog would be 10 miles of screenshots i gotta chill back on that but holy FUCK
he fucking LET Tanjiro get him SQUARE IN THE JUGULAR just to show off that Tanjiro’s blade doesnt have the strength to kill him FUCK.
the animation for this fight is SOMETHING. THE FUCK. ELSE.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
not so fun fact: every member of the MadLad trio has said this exact line at least once this arc
GOD theyre hitting with the.... precious family flashbacks... the gentle and haunting music... the dead father in Tanjiro’s memory... oh we’re hitting on something big
Shinobu’s line earlier about “we see our life flash before our eyes because its our brain’s last desperate attempt to pull on some past knowledge to save ourselves” is.... VERY RELEVANT. 
the swelling music... theyre gonna use that to seamlessly cut from flashback back into the realtime fight arent they. FUCK. WOW FUCK ITS CHILLS TIME
Tumblr media Tumblr media
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I CANNOT DO THIS JUSTICE WITH SCREENCAPS. 
I REALLY CANT.
THE ANIMATION IS GODDAMN BREATH TAKING. THE MUSIC IS PUTTING MY HEART IN MY THROAT.
THIS IS ART.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He’s still
willing to die in this fight
in order to save Nezuko
fuck....
Tumblr media Tumblr media
oh
oh
oh
Tumblr media
OH
Tumblr media Tumblr media
SHE SPOKE
SHE FUCKING SPOKE
SHE FUCKING SPOKE
Tumblr media Tumblr media
GUYS
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
GUYS
THEY BLED THE FINAL FIGHT MUSIC RIGHT INTO THE CREDITS
RIGHT INTO THE MONTAGE OF HIS FAMILY
I CAN’T EMPHASIZE ENOUGH HOW GOOD THE MUSIC IS. JUST. PERFECTLY COMPOSED. PERFECTLY TIMED.
NEZUKO SPOKE
SHE FUCKING SPOKE
AND IM A WRECK

improptu selling (again) of some of my ***one of a kind*** paintings and sketches and my cat is here
so if you're a true clover fan you remember last spring when i just said fuck it and sold a ton of my practice paintings on here for some pocket change and so basically. i need money. to do things. important things. and i have more paintings. and some drawings. none of which have been replicated, printed they are literally one of a kind pieces. and i want you to have them because 1. you can give me money for them to be sent to you and 2. otherwise they will SIT in closed sketchbooks never to see the light of day and in twenty years ill go through them and take out the ones that are kinda cute (ones i am not selling) and probably throw these away or pack them deeper away into the abyss of my young life and literally no one will see them or enjoy them they are kinda ugly but still cute theyre definitely worth something cause most of them are oil paint lmao. anyways here's that
Tumblr media Tumblr media
1. aggressive hozier reference ($24)
okay lol not to hit the ground running but this is a year old painting i did of uh...shrike by hozier to be honest. shrikes are my favorite bird btw i reccomend looking them up they're the fucking best. this one is on canvas paper, done in oil, my little thumb is in there for size reference as you can see. i was very proud of this little guy at the time...i used my own hand as a referencw and everything so if you want tumblr user psock's hand up on your wall here's your chance
Tumblr media
2. lil cheese (19)
basically i was an idiot and painted this in the fucking dark and then brought him to the light and realized i went way too heavy on the orange i actually went so orange that baby mistook him for another orange kitten and is now trying to claim him as a son. please take him
Tumblr media Tumblr media
3. spock star trek coughing up radio wire on a street corner in 1930s new york or wherever city on the edge of forever was because i listen to neutral milk hotel too much (29 + possibility of a shipping cost depending on where you live because its on a wood panel)
legally i cannot sell this for less because its mixed media its oil and graphite it took SO LONG. it took me so long. i would like to sell it for more but am too lazy so please just take it for this
Tumblr media
4. untitled (14)
thats it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
5. that scene in fellowship of the ring cause i'm gay (44 + maybe shipping depending on where you are because its a wood panel 6×6 inches)
i have to sell this its driving me up the fucking wall it's technically good i uust don't have anywhere to put it
Tumblr media Tumblr media
6. yeah its just leonard nimoy (16)
face practice cause for years spock eluded me his face is fucking hard to draw. you know what i'm talking about. (update: i'm realizing baby actually fucking bit this and you can see it you can see his teeth marks.)
i've hit image limit. so that's the tea thats what's happening i'm gonna leave these open for a few days to give everyone a fair chance and uh best offer gets it. dm me. it's a simple system. i'll take money through paypal or maybe venmo if paypal doesn't work out for you, and with the exception of the bigger ones i'll ship for absolutely free (unless you want to tip haha). share this around lets get these fuckers out of my house!!!!!!

THE MEGA RP PLOTTING SHEET / MEME.
First and foremost, recall that no one is perfect, we all had witnessed some plotting once which did not went too well, be it because of us or our partner. So here have this, which may help for future plotting. It’s a lot! Yes, but perhaps give your partners some insight? Anyway BOLD what fully applies, italicize if only somewhat.
MUN NAME: Hela     AGE: 21       CONTACT: IM
CHARACTER(S): Giselle Gewelle, Yumichika Ayasegawa (inactive)
CURRENT FANDOM(S): Bleach
BLEACH FANDOM(S) YOU HAVE AN AU FOR:  I have gory Bloodborne au but that one just exists in my head on my lonesome.
MY LANGUAGE(S): English and one very specific Middle Eastern dialect.
THEMES I’M INTERESTED IN FOR RP: FANTASY / Science fiction / Horror / WESTERN / ROMANCE / Thriller / MYSTERY / DYSTOPIA / ADVENTURE / MODERN / Erotic / Crime / MYTHOLOGY / Classic / HISTORY / RENAISSANCE / MEDIEVAL / Ancient / WAR / FAMILY / POLITICS / RELIGION / SCHOOL / ADULTHOOD / CHILDHOOD / APOCALYPTIC / GODS / Sport / MUSIC / Science / FIGHTS / ANGST / Smut / DRAMA / etc. 
PREFERRED THREAD LENGTH: one-liner / 1 para / 2 PARA / 3+ / NOVELLA.
ASKS CAN BE SEND BY: MUTUALS / NON-MUTUALS / PERSONALS / ANONS.
CAN ASKS BE CONTINUED?:   YES / NO    only by Mutuals?:  YES / NO.
PREFERRED THREAD TYPE: CRACK / casual nothing too deep / SERIOUS / DEEP AS HECK. (i love it all sorry I am quite the mixed bag lmao)
IS REALISM / RESEARCH IMPORTANT FOR YOU IN CERTAIN THEMES?:   YES / NO. i gotta know what certain human body parts taste like u know
ARE YOU ATM OPEN FOR NEW PLOTS?:  YES / NO / DEPENDS.
DO YOU HANDLE YOUR DRAFT / ASK - COUNT WELL?:  YES / NO / SOMEWHAT. it’s SO BAD FOR ME RN ASGLDKJDJKA i’m very inconsistent i’m so sorry.
HOW LONG DO YOU USUALLY TAKE TO REPLY?: 24H / 1 WEEK / 2 WEEKS / 3+ / months / years. / a lot of it has more to do w my general writing mood and if the thread im writing catches my interest, and rn im writing a TON of really wonderful and fascinating threads so they’re all super captivating for me and i try to reply asap
I’M OKAY WITH INTERACTING: ORIGINAL CHARACTERS / a relative of my character (an oc) / duplicates / MY FANDOM / CROSSOVERS / MULTI-MUSES / self-inserts / people with no AU verse for my fandom / CANON-DIVERGENT PORTRAYALS / AU-VERSIONS.
DO YOU POST MORE IC OR OOC?: IC / OOC. (i have a lot of stupid shit sorry) 
ARE YOU SELECTIVE WITH FOLLOWING OTHERS?: YES / NO / DEPENDS.  
BEST WAYS TO APPROACH YOU FOR RP/PLOTTING: just send me a tumblr instant message, i know it sucks shit but im not comfy releasing my discord w everyone just yet cause i use it for personal use as well. i check tumblr on the daily so if you send me a message chances are i’ll see it and respond!
WHAT EXPECTATIONS DO YOU HOLD TOWARDS YOUR PLOTTING PARTNER:  i guess just be able to put up with my rambling and stopping and starting, a lot of characterisation choices i do go through various stages and its pretty messy so when i communicate that with others it usually ends up equally messy. just be patient with me please.
WHEN YOU NOTICE THE PLOTTING IS RATHER ONE-SIDED, WHAT DO YOU DO?:  i don’t mind! sometimes ppl have more ideas that they want to share first and i’m always super happy to listen to those ideas !! sometimes its nice to have someone with a clear guide or structure and be able to work around that rather than trying to fumble through a plot together.
HOW DO YOU USUALLY PLOT WITH OTHERS, DO YOU GIVE INPUT OR LEAVE MOST WORK TOWARDS YOUR PARTNER?:  i try to map out some basic info abt their characters that i otherwise don’t know from their bio or verses and try to pick out points of confrontation or similarities to expand on with giselle that can be used as points for like a starter to happen. its either that or sometimes i have really stupid ideas i just toss out there like ‘LMAO THEYRE BREAKING SHIT AT DISNEYLAND’ and go buck wild from there if the other person is down. i also always try to warn people or get a gauge for what subjects to avoid and steer clear of considering that giselle is a bit of a Freak(tm) and will say and do bad things.
WHEN A PARTNER DROPS THE THREAD, DO YOU WISH TO KNOW?:   YES / NO / DEPENDS. - And why?: if there’s something giselle did or said that upset you, i would love to know not to repeat it again (since i do still feel pretty new to the rp game, theres still plenty of time for me to make stupid mistakes). if its just a general lack of interest or uncertainty of where the plot should go, then you dont have to tell me i wont take it personally i promise ! 
WHAT COULD POSSIBLY LEAD YOU TO DROP A THREAD?: sometimes i can be made uncomfortable by certain things mentioned... it happens but its rare 
- WILL YOU TELL YOUR PARTNER?:   YES / NO / DEPENDS. i don’t want to upset anyone personally and sometimes explaining the ins and outs of my discomfort make things ten times worse so i just. would rather not.
IS COMMUNICATION IN THE RPC IMPORTANT TO YOU? YES / NO.
- AND WHY?: i am the most nervous person you can meet and my brain is always giving me misinfo abt paranoia and random shit so i having clear concrete communication between two parties abt if something is going wrong or is being received poorly means the world to me.
ARE YOU OKAY WITH ABSOLUTE HONESTY, EVEN IF IT MAY MEANS HEARING SOMETHING NEGA1TIVE ABOUT YOU AND/OR PORTRAYAL?: i need it !! i still feel relatively new to all this and i need to know whats going wrong to improve !! 
DO YOU THINK YOU CAN HANDLE SUCH SITUATION IN A MATURE WAY? YES / NO.
WHY DO YOU RP AGAIN, IS THERE A GOAL?: to help with my confidence in writing! i have v bad anxiety when it comes to sharing my works and i write a lot of other pieces alongside this blog on ao3 and i want to develop my writing skills just in general. when it comes to like the nuts and bolts of why i rp giselle specifically, its mainly to just have fun and have a laugh w my friends who are really awesome quincy writers
WISHLIST, BE IT PLOTS OR SCENARIOS:  OH SO MANY! ive managed to fulfil a lot of my wishlist threads with like, giselle talking to characters she’s already zombified and i love all that angst but i want to do more stupid shit. i want to make it my personal goal to bully every quincy man and woman on sight. although a REAL dream would be if i got to write a thread zombifying a character who managed to escape giselle’s clutches. and more fighting! i want to get better at describing action and fights and i love to write giselle getting beat up and beating people up! more more more!! 
THEMES I WON’T EVER RP / EXPLORE:   hohoho theres a LOT... uh r*pe/dubcon threads for one, even if yeah i know writing it doesnt condone it, it makes me intensely uncomfortable to put my muse in that scenario, i feel like i have an obligation to like, protect her from that shit you know? racism is one i don’t want to transgress, even though i’m a poc, its not really cathartic or groundbreaking to write abt racism in threads its just... really fucking upsetting. also i know the quincy’s have this very close parallel to the whole n*zi imagery and ideology thing going on and i am not about to start even daring to thread that into my writing or bring those allusions and references of real life tragedies into giselle’s threads. i’ve already talked at length abt exploring giselles trans identity in rp and why im not comfortable doing so, so.... yeah! all those i guess.
WHAT TYPE OF STARTERS DO YOU PREFER / DISLIKE, CAN’T WORK WITH?: i like starters where giselle can just immediately get right into being a piece of shit. mise en scene and all that! cut out the build up and just get to the intense horror !! i don’t like starters where its not immediately clear where the characters are standing and what they’re doing and what’s happening around them. those really disorientate me and leave me kinda floundering because i always need some allusion or mention of a setting to ground giselle in a time and place other wise i cant tell what her response should be
WHAT TYPE OF CHARACTERS CATCH YOUR INTEREST THE MOST?:  EVIL WOMEN EVIL WOMEN EVIL WOMEN. also just characters i can wholeheartedly clown on, or also characters who have hidden depths to them and have a single panel of screentime. honestly it’s just all over the place!
WHAT TYPE OF CHARACTERS CATCH YOUR INTEREST THE LEAST?:  angry old men GSADJDKSJA i could never rp yhwach for example or yamamoto because idk. theyre just so crummy and boring to me. i also couldnt rp characters who always have an upper hand in battle like aizen. i like my dumbasses and i like them stupid and adaptive not just, ‘yes i know this because i Know this.’
WHAT ARE YOUR STRONG ASPECTS AS RP PARTNER?: i think im nice...? FKSJDKDJSA idk i hate trying to toot my own horn. sometimes i also think i make funny jokes and im pretty chill and laid back
WHAT ARE YOUR WEAK ASPECTS AS RP PARTNER?: my writing style is inconsistent and adapts to whatever i’m reading so sometimes it’ll be really good and i love it and other times it reads like really bad fanfic and i get carried away far too easily and write novella lengths for threads which should be much shorter. i also get shy a lot and dont think i communicate very effectively but HEYO we’re working on it!
DO YOU RP SMUT?:  YES / NO/ DEPENDS. haven’t had anybody brave enough to try yet lol
DO YOU PREFER TO GO INTO DETAIL?: YES / NO / DEPENDS.
ARE YOU OKAY WITH BLACK CURTAIN?: YES / NO.
- WHEN DO YOU RP SMUT? MORE OUT OF FUN OR CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT?: more for fun i’d imagine because that’s just giselles own attitude to sex and relationships where she doesnt want anything deep. it might show character development in one way of just showing how she regards others in a romantic sense to be used rather than actually appreciated as their own person and show how selfish she is but yeah, more out of fun
- ANYTHING YOU WOULD NOT WANT TO RP THERE?:  theres a few kinks and such but i dont think they’d ever really come up. again, just mainly no r*pe/dubcon.
ARE SHIPS IMPORTANT TO YOU?:   YES / NO lets hope this doesn’t make me sound like an asshole, but its more like a fun little side thing than anything important to giselle’s actual development and characterisation. 
WOULD YOU SAY YOUR BLOG IS SHIP-FOCUSED?: YES / NO. again, hardly anyone is brave enough to try to romance this evil cannibal.
DO YOU USE READ MORE?:  YES / NO / SOMETIMES WHEN I WRITE LONG STUFF.
ARE YOU:  MULTI-SHIP / Single-Ship / Dual-Ship  —  MULTIVERSE / Singleverse.
- WHAT DO YOU LOVE TO EXPLORE THE MOST IN YOUR SHIPS?: more how giselle likes to give over her power or dominate in different circumstances depending on who she’s with and what’s being done. BUT AGAIN, not a whole lot to explore yet.
ARE YOU OKAY WITH PRE-ESTABLISHED RELATIONSHIPS?: YES / NO. - i mean im down for p much anything if it vibes w giselle.
► SECTION ABOUT YOUR MUSE.
- WHAT COULD POSSIBLY MAKE YOUR MUSE INTERESTING TOWARDS OTHERS, WHY SHOULD THEY RP WITH THIS PARTICULAR CHARACTER OF YOURS NOW, WHAT POSSIBLE PLOTS DO THEY OFFER?: if you want an evil woman to taunt and mock and hurt your muse, she’s your gal. you want her to zombify and ruin your muse, shes also your gal. you want her to insult and maim and injure, she’s also YOUR GAL. basically, if you want to do anything fucked up or sad or scary, she can help with that.
- WITH WHAT TYPE OF MUSES DO YOU USUALLY STRUGGLE TO RP WITH?:  uh muses who get really angry quickly or don’t rise or respond to her jabs and are just kinda like a flatline. theres only so much pestering and annoying she can do until realises its not working and just wanders off
- WHAT DO THEY DESIRE, IS THEIR GOAL?:  to find a goal worth living for.
- WHAT CATCHES THEIR INTEREST FIRST WHEN MEETING SOMEONE NEW?:  appearance she always takes an interest in girls almost right away. age as well because she judges old people. 
- WHAT DO THEY VALUE IN A PERSON?:  a good set of guts to ruin and strong muscles.
- WHAT THEMES DO THEY LIKE TALKING ABOUT?:  women, gore, murder, herself, music, stupid memes, gossip.
- WHICH THEMES BORE THEM?:  politics, history, quincy ideology, soul reaper ideology, hollow physiology.
- DID THEY EVER WENT THROUGH SOMETHING TRAUMATIC?:  her family tried to force the burden of upholding the quincy lineage onto her shoulders, she was thrown into the wrong prison and held in isolation, then pressured to become an undying monster in service of a god and then was nearly killed by that same man and left wandering without guidance or purpose. so, yeah?
- WHAT COULD LEAD TO AN INSTANT KILL?:  transphobia. even a whiff of it in her direction and she’ll gut you like a fish.
- IS THERE SOMEONE /-THING THEY HATE?:  the twink soul reaper who outted her.
IS YOUR MUSE EASY TO APPROACH?: YES / NO. - Best ways to approach them?:  if you’re smart, you’ll bring a big bone for her to chew on and distract her while you ask whatever you want.
SOMETHING YOU MAY STILL WANT TO POINT OUT ABOUT YOUR MUSE?: i love my evil queen!
CONGRATS!!! You managed it, now tag your mutuals! ♥
Tagged by:  @bazzardburner​ cheers chicken boy !!
Tagging: @hyouketsu​ @blooming5th​ @viciousvizard​ @glacies-tempestatem​ and whoever else wishes to do this!!

Do you think Cinnabar could have stopped/convinced Phos from going to the moon in chapter 52? For example instead of Cinnabar changing her dialogue to 'Be careful' and says 'Don't go!' like they did. How will that effect the story? Or if Phos still went would Cinnabar's actions changes Phos's actions.
Tumblr media
you know that thing Phos does where they routinely come to cinnabar and spill their guts about their next genius plan and then disappear and leave cinnabar alone again?
cause it’s exactly what happens in ch 52 and it’s what causes the rift between phos and shinsha. 
so lets spill some tea on how shinsha was going to follow phos to the moon and on how phos sank our ship
Tumblr media
so, let’s start from the fact that i love phos. and that this panel was an ugly move.
because i love phos. i love them very much. and this was an ugly move, shinsha, and i’ve written about how messed up it is here, here and here (im not afraid of criticizing both of my kids, they’re both dumb in their own way). still, thoseb words are not 100% uncalled for cause phos is such a dumb child and the way they treat shinsha just aint right 
you cant use shinsha like that! you cant just sweep shinsha into the storm if youre not going to commit. ofc shinsha draws the conclusion that phos cant empathize with them.
Tumblr media
constantly asking shinsha for advice and constantly asking shinsha to listen put a huge weight on cinnabar’s conscience. 
shinsha is in this perennial state of waiting: they know phos is betraying the gems and risking their life but they’re unable to do anything about it. it’s just so messed up.
which brings me to your question: could cinnabar persuade phos to stay? 
it’s funny cause shinsha was the one who wanted to go in the first place, so they must have thought about all the dangers of going. they must empathize with phos so much in ch 52: they know what wishing to go to the moon means. they know it’s scary.
Tumblr media
this is why, i believe, shinsha would have come with phos. 
shinsha already expressed their desire to pair up with phos in ch 36 (pic below) but phos didnt hear them. now, look how surprised shinsha appears in ch 52, in the panels right after phos asks them to go to the moon together. 
one panel is entirely dedicated to shinsha and phos’ hands and we can see that shinsha is raising their arm, as if they were about to accept phos’ hand. 
it’s like shinsha is about to say yes. theyre really thinking about it, theyre really taking the time to give phos’ proposal a chance. 
Tumblr media
after all, this is what cinnabar wanted: to be of use, to mean something for someone, to have purpose. a job, if you want, or better: the things that come with having a job.
cinnabar is just so desperate for connection and they feel for phos so much in chapter 52. if phos is set on going to the moon, shinsha is willing to risk their life to go with them, specifically because it’s dangerous and specifically because phos will be alone. because shinsha knows what being alone means.  
Tumblr media
but then, as always, phos doesnt understand. they cant see through shinsha and they ruin it all. phos takes their words back and cinnabar slouches, disappointed: they take back their arm.
once again, phos has decided for cinnabar before cinnabar had a chance to decide for themselves. phos keeps sweeping shinsha into and out of the storm, without giving them the time and the chance to speak their mind until it’s too late and shinsha has become hostile.
Tumblr media
even after phos takes their proposal back, cinnabar still cares. theyre still empathizing, they’re still concerned. so they ask phos not to go but phos, again, like the dumbass they are, doesnt hear them.
at this point it’s too late. cinnabar is all but a resolute gem: they’re tired. they think it over in their mind and they give up: anxiety/avoidance/years of isolation take over. they simply tell phos to take care.
i believe cinnabar couldnt persuade phos not to go because that wasnt their goal. they wanted to come with phos and be of use rather than stay behind again, waiting, knowing that phos was in danger.
which is what makes this chapter heartbreaking. it’s the chapter where cinnabar starts to distance themselves from phos.
Tumblr media
when phos comes back, in ch 61, they ask shinsha to come with them again, but this time shinsha straight up refuses.
its like they’re telling phos that they’re through. they dont wanna have anything to do with their plans anymore, they dont trust phos to find them a job and a future because phos doesnt understand them. and thats why shinsha sides with the earth gems.
and it looked abrupt at the time. i remember thinking it was abrupt and cruel when i read ch 61 for the first time, because i thought shinsha and phos had this special bond and they’d become a power team or something. but shinsha’s refusal makes sense
It was a process: phos and cinnabar gradually grew apart, one incomprehension after the other, until it became visible in chapter 61 (and 71). but it all started here, from the umpteenth communication failure between these two rocks.

Anime Attraction
3.K words
A/N: High School au. Fic with ichiro, you two slowly falling in love over the span of a 4 day convention and bonding over the fact that you’re closeted weebs. (So he would like tdd era ichiro) And again! I use neutral pronouns! hope you enjoy~
Day 1: You were very excited, happy, elated, every happy word in the book! This year, you were finally going to your first anime convention. Unfortunately, you were a bit of a closeted weeb. People knew you watched anime….just not your extreme obssession with it. Maybe extreme was too harsh for you case, but you were sure that would be the situation if they ever saw your room, filled with anime posters, merch, etc.However, those were all bought online or in stores….youve never actually been to a convention.
Online, you heard many good things about it, and that people there, for the most part, were friendly. You smiled as you got off the train, an empty backpack on your bag, besides essentials, inside an empty tote bag for you posters. You had planned for this for months. Saving up all the money you could from your allowances. Your wallet, besides money for the train and food to eat, was going to be completely emptied by the end of the day. Finally, you took your jacket off, revealing a ( favorite anime) anime shirt on your person. One of your favorites. You could never choose. You could talk about it for days. However….it was Under rated. It was also a bit old...and you were late to watch it, so the fandom dwindled down.
You were amazed as you saw many cosplays, a bit too nervous to ask for pictures, or even compliment them, but you hoped they received your compliments in spirit….something like that. It was….also really big and crowded. You got too into your head, overthinking a bunch of things, that you didn’t see the larger man in front of you, hitting his back.
“O-oh im sorry, I wasn’t paying attention,” you said, bowing quickly. You looked up at the man, gulping, quickly taken aback by how pretty he was, different colored eyes, red and green. It almost seemed like he was in cosplay, but he was just wearing a naruto shirt with black jeans on, a naruto headband around his forehead.
Ichiro blinked and smiled,”no need to apologize, I was kind of standing here in the middle of everyone anyway,”his eyes went down to your shirt and his eyes sparkled,”wait….thats a (favorite anime) isnt it! Whose your favorite character?”, he asked. You were taken aback about how eager and happy he seemed, but it definitely managed to make you relax a bit.
“My favorite character is [     ],”you said, stating your reasoning,”oh- sorry….I didn’t mean to talk that long,” Ichiro chuckled,”thats fine, I love them too! For mostly the same reasons, theyre kind of cool. This is my first convention so Im excited its going off to great start, thanks.”
Oh? It was his first time as well? “Its my first time too, I came here alone, I didn’t expect to be this big, theres so many people.” Ichiro nodded,”Im here by myself too, are you here all four days?” You nodded. “If you dont mind it, we can walk around together, ah! Sorry if thats a bit too forward….”,he trailed off. To be honest, Ichiro was a closeted weeb. So he had no one to talk to, let alone drag to a con. “Oh no, Um, its fine. I would like that...even though I know everyone here loves anime….”,you trailed off, the guy, whose name you still didn’t know, finished your thought,”because theres so many people conversing and being you feel like everyone already has their own cliques and you realize youre alone.”
Well. That. Yes that. You smiled,”Yeah, its that, and my nerves and anxiety.”
Ichiro stuck his hand out,”Yamada Ichiro, 2nd year high school student in Ikebukuro. Nice to meet you.”
“ l/n, f/n, also 2nd year in a high school located in yokohama, nice to meet you”m you said and shook his hand. Maybe it wouldn’t be so bad after all.
Day 2:
The first day, the two of you had walked around, played games, went to panels together, learning much more about each other. You agreed to meetup at the same place in the morning. Of course, you were even more excited than you were yesterday. You were dressed in more casual clothing, but backpack was now decorated with buttons you found. Soon, you heard your name being called out and waved your hand,”Good Morning Yamada-san”, you said, greeting him.
Ichiro smiled and spoke,”Morning! Did you sleep well?”, he asked.  You shook your head in disagreement,”I barely got any sleep, I was excited for today.” Ichiro laughed,”so did I, so what should we do today?”,he said, taking out the convention program guide. “Hmmmm, theres a bunch of panels,”you said, going to the side of him and looking at the program,”how to successfully master naruto hand signs….”,you trailed off. They really….had a panel for everything.
Ichiro’s face lit up,” that sounds cool, want to go? Although I already know a couple…”,he said, and you laughed,”what? You going to become the next hokage Yamada-san?”, you teased a bit, but he went along with it, of course he did. You found out about this from yesterday. That he was like this. “I am gonna be next hokage, just believe it!”, he said.
“Thats naruto’s punchline you cant just steal it,” you said, watching Ichiro as he thought, then spoke again, very excitedly,”Im going to be next hokage, because I said so!”, he said, putting out a thumb. For some reason, it had you laughing a lot,”b-bbecause you said so? Ahahaha, well, you sure have a passion like naruto, I think thats all you need, its cute”, you said, realizing that you had just called the other cute.
Ichiro blushed and put his hand behind his back,”Sorry...I just cant be like this a lot in real life without getting teased for it, so its a bit refreshing,”he said and you nodded,, understanding completely.
“Well, lets go learn some jutstus even though they wont help against a gun but who cares, because its an anime convention, and we’re doing what we love,”you said confidently, more confident than you would expect from yourself.  Ichiro nodded,”Dattebayo, lets go!”, he saidm turning around and walking. You were really having too much fun. Being attracted to him went way over your head for now, simply enjoying the time the two of you spent together.
Later on in the day, the two of you found an anime photo booth, Ichiro dragging you by the arm towards it,”for memories!”, he said. The two of you got in and hit the naruto theme poses. Of course, you indulged him, he was cute when he got his way. And, you didn’t have to worry about poses. Instead, they gave you poses to do.
The first was a naruto sign for any jutsu, the second peace signs, the third you had to stick your tongues at each other, seeming annoyed, and the last one….got you. It was only a hug, but they way Ichiro hugged you quickly and tightly, pushing both of your faces together, eft you shocked, and you were sure the picture didn’t turn out well. Once you got out and looked at it, Ichiro pointed to last one,”its like you were trying so hard not to blink, but we’re cute, arent we?”,he said and you laughed:yea we really are”, you replied, more focused on the current pace of your heart...beating very rapidly. You paid for two copies so you could keep it. The rest of the day, you two kept up your shenanigans. It was tough leaving, but you were going to come back tomorrow and, hopefully, your heart would learn to behave.
Day 3:
The two of you sat down to eat lunch on the third day, already having gone through a couple activities.
“Theres Jiro, then theres Saburo, and Saburo is the oldest. We’re all pretty close but Saburo and Jiro always fight a lot, typical sibling stuff…..and a lot of the times it includes me. I keep telling them I dont have favorites but they never listen,”Ichiro sighed with a smile on his face. It wasn’t an exhausted sigh though, he was used to it, it was just how they worked.
You smiled as he rambled on about his brothers. It was very clear that he cherished the both of them dearly and would do anything for them. “That must be nice….Im an only child so I could never relate to these type of things. Thats why I got into anime really, theres was no one that I could play with at the snap of a finger if I wanted to-oh Im not sad about it or anything, I love anime, it was really there for me in trying times, plus the internet.”
Ichiro nodded and then spoke,”Well, you have me now too, and you can be as passionate as you want, no holding back. You have my number now and its already fun texting you when we’re not at the convention.”  He was right. After you guys left, you were quickly texting each other at home before you went to sleep. You sent each other memes,pictures, and talked about a bunch of different topics, that often you had smiling or laughing at your phone.
At that point….you knew had a crush. It was only two days but he was just so…..it was the little things really, not just the fact that you had anime in common. When you were walking through the convention center, going through a massive crowd, he told you to hold onto his jacket, so you wouldn’t get lost. Or how he quickly offered to help hold your stuff when you were buying merchandise. Or even him talking about how much he loves his brothers. Rather than weird, it was insanely cute to you.
It wasnt love per say…..well. Lets be real. You were a sucker when it came to love. Honestly, you dont even feel like counting how many crushes you had but none of those ever came to fruition.  You should just focus on your anime boys but the moment some other boy is even the slightest bit kind to you, like helping you carry books, your heart falls. Despite that though, you felt like this was different. More than just a couple simple acts of kindness.
“Im really enjoying our time here, we’re going to the cosplay masquerade today right? We still have some time to kill, want to go to the game hall?”, you asked,”then we can see which one of us is better at dance dance revolution.” Ichiro smiled and nodded his head,”Yeah! Youre on!”
After that, the two of you managed to spend all of your time in the hall. Ichiro was by a claw machine and you commented,”I suck at these things,”then looked inside, seeing what plushies they had. “I think im pretty decent,”Ichiro said, walking up,”sometimes I won stuff for saburo when I was little...he grew out of it though,”Ichiro said with a laugh.He wanted to try it.
“Good Luck Yamada-kun!”, you said, cheering him on. You were amazed by how focused he looked. “Do you want anything specific?”,he asked you. “Wait, me?”, you said, trying to clarify. Ichiro laughed,”I think you’re the only l/n here,”he said. That...kind of caught you off guard. But you walked up and placed your hands against the glass. “Ummmm, that cat in the middle is kind of cute.”
Ichiro nodded. The first time, he managed to pick the plushie up for about three seconds before it fell, but that was better than what you could do! The second time, he managed to grab it again, your eyes wide in anticipation as you followed the claw and plushie to the drop off slot. “Oh my god, you did it!”,you said, going to high five both of Ichiro’s hands but, instead of letting go, he held them and put them down,”Yeah I did! Guess I didn’t lose my skill after all.” “Yeah...youre amazing”, you said, trying to not comment on the fact that he was still holding both of your hands. God….your heart was a mess. There was no denying you fell for him. At most, it was very high like at this point.
Day 4:
Ichiro was excited to see you again. Well, half-excited and half-sad. He really liked hanging out with you. More often than not, he found himself thinking about how you look best when theres a smile on your face. So, he always did dumb things to make you smile, no matter how stupid it may have looked. Maybe it was because you didn’t think his obsession was weird. When you guys talked, your interests lined up more than he thought they would. It was perfect.
Of course, he eventually figured out that he’d want to see you, in a more romantic context, that it is. He knew his feelings towards you were different. Honestly, he even weirdly got a little bit jealous when you mentioned how hot a specific anime character was. Ichiro didn’t necessarily plan on confessing that day….but who knows how things would turn out. Yes, it had only been three days, but he felt like he knew you already. Really, you guys always messaged each other.
The conversations would go dull for an hour or so but one link to a meme and that sparked a conversation that continued for a while. It was great. He had never felt so validated.
“L/n-san! Hey, morning!”,he said as he walked up to you. You looked like you were thinking hard about something, but Ichiro didn’t comment on it.
In fact, you were. Thinking about how you wouldn’t be able to see him so frequently. It made you….sadder than you expected. Granted you could travel to see him, but it was also due to the fact that it was the last day of the convention. Here, you could be yourselves without glancing over you shoulder every couple seconds in fear that someone you knew would spot you.  It was so much fun, especially because of him!
Its for the best though….your funds were just about dried out. You couldn’t help but smile as you saw him though,”hey, good morning to you too, ready for the last day?” Ichiro laughed,”Yes and No because this has been very exciting.” You nodded in agreement,”it has, it does suck that we cant experience this everyday.”
“well!”,Ichiro clapped his hands,”lets not worry about that and focus on having fun, okay?” Your smile got wider,”yes, okay!” Ichiro spoke,”Datteba-”, then he pointed towards you,”Yo!”, you said, the two of you giggling. This had become your thing now, apparently, but you two werent used to it, hence you laughing off you embarrassment.
You went to the artist alley and exhibit hall one last time, taking a lot more pictures together than usual, even with cosplayers! Ichiro helped you out a lo with expressing that you wanted pictures with them and that was yet another thing that you loved about him. Without even asking him to do so, he just did it on a whim, and that made you incredibly happy.
A bit later, it was closing ceremonies. It wasnt much really, but anything to just spend even a little more time with Ichiro. However, that ended sooner than you expected. And you didn’t know what to do with yourself.
The two of you sat outside on a bench.
“So, I suppose this is it…”,you said. You had to get back early today anyway. Yet, you really didn’t want to. You looked up as Ichiro spoke,”no, its not it. We still have each other’s numbers, we can make it work, I-well….these past few days have been really fun for me,”Ichiro blushed, placing his hand behind his neck. Was he going to confess? If he didn’t do it now he knew he’d procrastinate on doing so forever. He didn’t necessarily have to make sure you were his in this exact moment, but his heart wanted an answer as soon as possible, before he got in too deep.
“The thing is….I want us to be more than just friends. I just….the more we talked, the more I found myself drawn to you. Like I can tell you anything. Its really easy to be myself around you, l/n, I want...to get closer. So, would you go out with me? Or not now, I mean you can think about it but...yeah.”,he said, face blushing. He had only confessed once in his lifetime and that was during elementary….he was quickly shut down.
You….couldn’t believe your ears. Did you really manage to find someone who was interested you at an anime convention. Well, you were sure there were more interesting stories but this was still way out of your league. You even thought he was way out of your league.
“I….we can date. I feel the same, about you, I like talking to you. And I think whats making me so sad is that I cant see you...not the convention part,”you said, looking towards Ichiro and seeing his grow excited. He grabbed your hands quickly and held them,”really?! Thats great.”,he said, letting go than hugging you. Oh. This was happening. It took you a couple seconds to process the hug before you reciprocated it.
Ichiro pulled away, looking down at you, a smile on his face,”when I talk with you, I feel like the happiest and luckiest man in the world. I know love is too strong of a word right now, but I want to do my best to make you happy.”
You were so flustered that you made no response, even more so when you felt his hand on your cheek and saw him leaning in. It all happened quickly. You closed your eyes and suddenly his lips were on yours. No movement, but it lingered for a moment, before he pulled away.
That was your first...kiss. You didn’t mind that it got taken by him but still….it was so much to process. Ichiro brought you back to reality,”Ikebukuro isn’t too far from Yokohama on the train, maybe we could meet in the middle on weekends, or switch up, ah, well I guess we can talk about this letter, getting ahead of myself,”he said and chuckled, which only prompted you to let out a soft laugh. He was like an eager puppy that you wanted to pet. Weird how he so easily calmed your nerves by the sounds of your laughs.
“Datteba-”
“Yo!”

Why Are Republicans So Afraid Of Voters
Why Are Republicans Still So Afraid Of Trump? | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
There is no both sides do it when it comes to intentionally keeping Americans away from the polls.
By The Editorial Board
The editorial board is a group of opinion journalists whose views are informed by expertise, research, debate and certain longstandingvalues. It is separate from the newsroom.
As of Sunday afternoon, more than 93 million Americans had cast a ballot in the November elections. Thats about two-thirds of the total number of people who voted in 2016, and there are still two days until Election Day.
This is excellent news. In the middle of a global pandemic that has taken the lives of nearly a quarter of a million Americans, upended the national economy and thrown state election procedures into turmoil, there were reasonable concerns that many people would not vote at all. The numbers to date suggest that 2020 could see record turnout.
While celebrating this renewed citizen involvement in Americas political process, dont lose sight of the bigger, and darker, picture. For decades, Americans have voted at depressingly low rates for a modern democracy. Even in a good year, more than one-third of all eligible voters dont cast a ballot. In a bad year, that number can approach two-thirds.
Why are so many Americans consistently missing in action on Election Day?
For many, its a choice. They are disillusioned with government, or they feel their vote doesnt matter because politicians dont listen to them anyway.
Democratic Congressman Suggests Kevin Mccarthy Is ‘afraid Of Donald Trump’
Congressman Jim McGovern said House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy may be a coward who is afraid of former President Donald Trump after he voted against plans to create an independent commission to investigate the January 6 Capitol riot.
In an interview with MSNBC on Wednesday, Rep. McGovern said McCarthy had got “basically everything he wanted” in the proposals for the independent commission, noting that its members would be made up evenly of Republicans and Democrats.
The aim of the commission would be to review the events that led to the deadly attack on Congress, any intelligence failures and how the government responded. The House backed setting up a commission on Wednesday in a 252-175 vote that saw 35 Republican lawmakers break with their party to back the probe.
Speaking to All In With Chris Hayes, McGovern said: “Kevin McCarthy got basically everything he wanted. He sent a letter to Speaker Pelosi talking about his demands, including an equal representation of Democrats and Republicans on the commission. He got it, he got everything.
“And yet he walked away. So he’s either a worse negotiator than Donald Trump, getting everything he wants and then walking away, or he’s a coward. He’s afraid of Donald Trump. Donald Trump does not want the truth to be known, and does not want this commission to move forward.”

Our nations preeminent bipartisanship fetishistsJoe Manchin, Susan Collins, and Lisa Murkowskiare deeply disappointed that they cant get Republicans to back an investigation into the January 6 attack on Capitol Hill. Indeed, they seem outright baffled that their efforts at compromise have fallen short on plans for a bipartisan panel. There is no excuse for any Republican to vote against this commission since Democrats have agreed to everything they asked for, Manchin said in an angry statement on Twitter. It would be so much better if we had an independent outside commission, Collins, a moderate Republican, told reporters Thursday. Is that really what this is about, one election cycle after another? added Murkowski, blasting Mitch McConnells anticipated filibuster. Or are we going to acknowledge that as a country that is based on these principles of democracy that we hold so dear, and one of those is that we have free and fair elections.
I kind of want that to endure beyond just one election cycle, the Alaska moderate Republican told reporters.

Trump Is Creating His Own American Republic Of Fear
This is a column about American cowards and an American hero, and what their behavior tells us about the future of democracy in this country and its reputation abroad.
First, let us look at the cowards, the congressional Republicans so fearful of President Donald Trump that they are unwilling to call out his rejection of a peaceful transfer of power, the bedrock of American democracy.
Just 27 of 247 congressional Republicans in the House and Senate were willing to acknowledge that Joe Biden was president-elect in a December poll by the Washington Post. They were too terrified of Trump to reject his lying rants about election fraud. Or to denounce the threats his fans are making against election officials of both parties around the country.
Unlike many of those fans, GOP legislators know Biden has won. Yet they are acting as if they live in Belarus, or Russia or China, where opposing an autocrat gets you jailed or poisoned, or in Saddam Hussein’s Iraq, where it got you killed.
“Republic of Fear” is what they called Saddam’s Iraq, and despite the huge differences between his murderous tactics and Trump’s, the term seems apt for the bubble of fear in which GOP leaders live. Unless congressional Republicans bust that bubble soon, the American republic will face a grim next few years.
Dent echoes that thought, saying, “If 100 of them today said ‘game’s over’ it would have an enormous effect on the base.”
Opinion: Why Are Republicans So Afraid Of A Fair Fight At The Polls
Tumblr media Tumblr media
THE CORONAVIRUS pandemic has left state leaders scrambling to run a fair election this November. Ramping up absentee voting is the most sensible response, but unfortunately it also is becoming a partisan choice. President Trump continues to spew disinformation about the supposed dangers of mail-in voting, some state Republican leaders are refusing to make voting easier, and party officials are fighting states that are trying to do the right thing.
There is NO WAY that Mail-In Ballots will be anything less than substantially fraudulent, President Trump tweeted May 26, accusing California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, of proposing to send ballots to anyone living in the state, no matter who they are or how they got there. In fact, voter fraud of any kind is rare, and states that conduct all-mail-in elections, such as Oregon and Utah, have not seen widespread fraud. Mr. Trump may have been spurred by a lawsuit the Republican National Committee filed May 24 against Mr. Newsom, demanding that the courts stop the governor from distributing absentee ballots in California. That lawsuit, too, is built on fearmongering.
If Republicans fear that enabling more people to vote will hurt them, they should offer more attractive policies and candidates and stop trying to suppress the vote, in California and everywhere else.

In taking a shot at CNNs Jake Tapper, Republicans are openly boasting that theyre responsible for spreading democracy-defying conspiracy theories about the 2020 presidential election.;
The CNN anchor recently took a stand against inviting election deniers on his programs, saying last week that lawmakers who support former President Donald Trumps Big Liereferring to the false claim that the election was stolenare not welcome on his weekday and weekend shows. Its not a policy but a philosophy, Tapper said, noting he hasnt booked such Republicans since the election. Pro-Trump Republicans have since come forward with emails from CNN bookers requesting their presence on Tappers shows. Rep. Elise Stefanik of New Yorkwhom the GOP last month voted to replace Liz Cheney as the partys conference chairtweeted screenshots, telling Tapper to read and weep:

Responding to these apparent gotcha attempts, Tapper said he cant account for every email from my excellent bookers whose job it is to present me with as many options as possible. He also pointed to the absurdity of Republicans rushing to prove they are, in fact, election deniers. Kind of stunning to see her proudly identify as a conspiracy theorist, he said of Stefanik.

Todays Republicans Really Hate Democrats And Democracy
1) Trumps supporters have embraced anti-democratic ideas
This chart shows results from a two-part survey, conducted in late 2020 and early 2021, of hardcore Trump supporters. The political scientists behind the survey, Rachel Blum and Christian Parker, identified so-called MAGA voters by their activity on pro-Trump Facebook pages. Their subjects are engaged and committed Republican partisans, disproportionately likely to influence conflicts within the party like primary elections.
These voters, according to Blum and Parker, are hostile to bedrock democratic principles.

How Americas Political System Creates Space For Republicans To Undermine Democracy
9) Republicans havean unpopular policy agenda
Let Them Eat Tweets
The Republican policy agenda is extremely unpopular. The chart here, taken from Jacob Hacker and Paul Piersons recent book Let Them Eat Tweets, compares the relative popularity of the two major legislative efforts of Trumps first term tax cuts and Obamacare repeal to similar high-priority bills in years past. The contrast is striking: The GOPs modern economic agenda is widely disliked even compared to unpopular bills of the past, a finding consistent with a lot of recent polling data.
Hacker and Pierson argue that this drives Republicans emphasis on culture war and anti-Democratic identity politics. This strategy, which they term plutocratic populism, allows the partys super-wealthy backers to get their tax cuts while the base gets the partisan street fight they crave.
The GOP can do this because Americas political system is profoundly unrepresentative. The coalition it can assemble overwhelmingly white Christian, heavily rural, and increasingly less educated is a shrinking minority that has lost the popular vote in seven of the past eight presidential contests. But its voters are ideally positioned to give Republicans advantages in the Electoral College and the Senate, allowing the party to remain viable despite representing significantly fewer voters than the Democrats do.
10) Some of the most consequential Republican attacks on democracy happen at the state level
Lock Him Up Heres The Real Reason Trump Is Afraid Of Leaving The White House
Why Are Republicans So Afraid Of Lev Parnas? | Velshi & Ruhle | MSNBC
Despite having lost the 2020 presidential election, President Donald Trump is seemingly doing everything in his power to maintain control of the White House. Surrounded by Republican political leaders who are bolstering his lies about widespread voter fraud, the president has refused to concede to President-elect Joe Biden, and has kept himself busy by replacing senior Pentagon officials with loyalists.
While the presidents apparent attempt to shore up his influence with military leaders is certainly dangerous, few experts believe he is likely to stage an actual coup. Instead, consensus is that Trump will be leaving office one way or another and that even he knows that. What Trump also knows, though and why he is perhaps so desperately clinging to the fantasy that he won is that, when he does leave, he could face prison time. And its that risk of prosecution looming over him that is making Trump tighten his iron grip on the presidency.
If Trump does end up in prison as a result of his various civil and criminal legal transgressions, he will join the ranks of several of his former associates who have been charged or imprisoned under his administration.
Then, too, former Trump campaign managers Steve Bannon and Corey Lewandowski were, respectively, indicted with defrauding donors of a We Build the Wall fundraiser, and charged with misdemeanor battery.
Like what you see? How about some more R29 goodness, right here?

All of Arizonas Republican representatives voted no.;This would include Reps. Andy Biggs and Paul Gosar. You may recall that right-wing political activist Ali Alexander claimed that these two Arizona representatives worked with him to plan pro-Trump rallies, including the one that ended with an attack on the Capitol.
That kind of connection to the Capitol riot seems to be what Republicans are worried about. They;fear the exposure of possible;links between the rioters and Republicans, and the implications that may have for former President Donald Trump.
Gladys Sicknick, the mother of Brian Sicknick, said of the Republicans who voted not to investigate the event, I just dont believe anybody could vote no, it doesnt make sense.
Why Are Gop Lawmakers Afraid To Stand Up To Trump This Race Offers A Clue
WASHINGTON ;A nasty primary runoff in Georgia this week helped explain why congressional Republicans are so afraid of taking on President Donald Trump.
Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle had maintained a lead for the GOP nomination in the states gubernatorial race since May, when he fell short of getting the 50 percent of the vote needed to win the nomination outright. He was considered the front-runner in the race, the one who had the best chance of taking on rising progressive star Stacey Abrams in the fall.;
But it all fell apart when, in a surprise move, Trump endorsed Brian Kemp, Georgias secretary of state and Cagles GOP rival in the race. The announcement blindsided;Cagles campaign and other GOP officials, including the leaders of the Republican Governors Association.;;
A leaked internal tracking poll for Cagles campaign that was obtained by a reporter for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution showed how the lieutenant governors poll numbers nose-dived after Trump endorsed Kemp, who cruised to victory Tuesday.
The dramatic boost for Kemp is a testament to Trumps enduring sway on the Republican electorate, despite growing criticism from GOP officials about his trade policies and his disastrous summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The president did not change the outcome, but it significantly impacted the margin, which means he had a very positive effect, Sen. Jonny Isakson said Wednesday of Trumps endorsement.
Don’t Miss: What Happens If Republicans Win Midterms
Did Trump Damage American Democracy
Reddit
Did Trump permanently damage American democracy? This question has spawned a veritable cottage industry of hand wringing over the state of American democracyunderstandably so. Never before have we had a president who schemed to overturn legitimate election results, who attacked the press and the civil servants who worked for him, who admired dictators, who blatantly profited from his public office and who repeatedly lied to the public for his own selfish purposes. But while Trumps four years of rhetoric have been a shock to democratic norms, did they inflict permanent damage on our democracy? My answer is a qualified no. The guardrails of democracy held. The institutions designed to check autocracy are intact.
Successful democratic systems are not designed for governments composed of ethical men and women who are only interested in the public good. If leaders were always virtuous there would be no need for checks and balances. The Founding Fathers understood this. They designed a system to protect minority points of view and to protect us from leaders inclined to lie, cheat and steal. Fortunately, we havent had many of those in our 200-plus years of history, which is why the Trump presidency sent such shock waves through a large part of the body politic.
Did Trump weaken the powers of Congress? No.
Still In The Thrall Of Trump Party Continues On Toxic Turn Away From Truth
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even if you dont like or have never seen the 1992 film, or if you judge Jack Nicholsons acting technique as, shall we say, a bit much, you can probably recite his signature outburst from;A Few Good Men,;with appropriate volume: You cant handle the truth!
Why are so many in the GOP still insisting that the presidential election was rigged and that Donald Trump, the main attraction at the recent Conservative Political Action Conference, is the real president? Why would a 9/11-style commission to investigate the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol to avoid a repeat by the same forces who believed an election fraud lie be a bad idea? Why all the squawking and attempts in some states to censor a social studies curriculum that presents a nuanced and complete history of a United States that has not always acknowledged the accomplishments and sacrifice of all its citizens?
Say it louder, Jack. I dont think the Republicans present and represented at;CPAC;can hear you.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt tried to reassure a justifiably fearful country, in the midst of a crushing Depression, by being honest and positive about our common problems.
Let me assert my firm belief, he said, that the;only thing we have to fear;is fear itself nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror, which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.
Its a soulless transaction that views democracy as expendable.

((Here’s the first part to me and my partner Muse’s hungerplay rp! I haven’t done a hungerplay rp before so this got me really excited aaaah ; ; I would have loved if this had been drawn out even longer, with poor rupa reaching the point of desperation… But aah I guess that’s just a goal to shoot for next time <3 It was just getting so late
Rupa is mine of course. Damien, Mouse/Muse and Nota are all mouse’s characters.))
rupa walks alongside you, her hands behind her head, taking a walk through the neighborhood. It’s a pretty warm day, and sunny. We’ve been walking for a while and it’s a bit past noon - well past breakfast, and high time for more food. uv u
Nice day today, huh~?
MuseMouse-Yesterday at 10:55 PM
Yeahh, not bad… bit warm, but it’s nice after the long winter. u u Has his hands in his pockets, walking a bit behind you, sated and comfortable just spending time together.
Getting a bit hungry
’  ’
Rupa-Yesterday at 10:57 PM
Yeah, same really… u   u
she rocks on her heels. The nice heat is making her quite unaware and susceptible to negotiation~ It wouldn’t be hard to convince her to go eat wherever you want.~
MuseMouse-Yesterday at 11:02 PM
… i could go for a gyro
Damien makes a mean gyro with fries. -3- ever tried?
His menu is so variable its hard to try everythin
Rupa-Yesterday at 11:03 PM
Ohh, gyros, really? o   o
I’m surprised… thats not usually a bar thing…
Sure! u U u that sounds good right now~
MuseMouse-Yesterday at 11:05 PM
He considers it a bar-come-restaurant, haha.. he’s a real revolutionary.(edited)
Yeah.. right around the corner anyways
How convenient. rubs his nose, looking away
((Read the rest under the cut))
Rupa-Yesterday at 11:10 PM
:3 Huh, yeah! We musta been walkin a long time… Time kinda flies just wassailing with you~ uUu she turns the corner, and damien’s place is right there, big wooden sign and old wooden door, and large front windows…
MuseMouse-Yesterday at 11:11 PM
./w/. … Smiles dumbly at the comment, pleased. Follows you in. It’s an average business day, plenty of tables. Damien waves as you both come in, leaning over the counter and working through some receipts, tail swaying in contentment.
Rupa-Yesterday at 11:13 PM
^ o ^ Damien~ Long time no see~
A little birdie told me you have gyros on the menu…?~
MuseMouse-Yesterday at 11:19 PM
The dragon nods! Mmmhrm, little miss. I had a feeling you two might be by to stuff your craws today. … Too nice to be stuck indoors, care for a balcony seat?
muse glances at you. he just got that balcony… room sorted last week, he’s so proud of it.
damien smiles. It’s a nice view.
Rupa-Yesterday at 11:21 PM
Oh, sure! ://3 Expanding, I see~
MuseMouse-Yesterday at 11:30 PM
damien shuffles the papers up and puts them under the counter, tossing a towel over his shoulder and walking out to guide you both to the back. Nota waves to you both, squirreltail wiggling all chipper
the back is quiet and dim, sounds of festivity faint behind every other door. Clear blue skies overhead past the weird looking glass ceiling. A short way in he opens a door, which leads to a shift in aesthetic; wooden panelling walls, a short hallway leading to a stunted staircase. All clean lacquered wood.
An open doorway at the top of which leads to a balcony at the side of a brook. It’s somwhere relatively near- you’re not suddenly in Paris, you can see the familiar forest near the house on the skyline, well past the city- but its still jarring. He must have rented the space for this purpose.
a few other folks are enjoying food and drinks on the balcony, and music plays faintly from speakers installed overhead on the side of an otherwise silent building.
Parasol’d seats surrounded by cushioned beach chairs, all very mediterranean*
Rupa-Yesterday at 11:37 PM
oh my… o. o Yeah, very new…! Is this uh… In the city, or just in the outskirts…?
MuseMouse-Yesterday at 11:40 PM
In the city. He guides you both to a seating by the railing. The brook babbles softly below, in a little ravine leading out of a thin underbridge river into the lake. The sounds of light traffic and such nearby.
Outskirts… more or less. Just a space not used by many, so I thought I would try something new.
Thoughts? the dragon scratches his chin with a claw
Rupa-Yesterday at 11:43 PM
Prettyyy! I love it! I love the water especially~… And I’m always a sucker for forests. rubs head
MuseMouse-Yesterday at 11:55 PM
mouse. Yeah, I agree u vu
The kid takes a seat, streeeetchin out…
damien pads over and takes off his jacket, making him squeak as its delicately lifted off his  stretching arms and set over the back of his chair.
oh. th-thanks ./.;
Rupa-Yesterday at 11:59 PM
:3 she sits down across from you, and she can’t help but giggle when she sees damien carefully peel off your jacket. once a ward, always a ward.
July 23, 2017
MuseMouse-Today at 12:01 AM
-//- mouse rubs his head. Damien is as politelt unaffected as ever as he takes your orders; Mouse orders extra tzatziki sauce of course
Rupa-Today at 12:02 AM
rupa orders the same, of course, pattering her fingers on the edge of the table across from you. With extra fries.
MuseMouse-Today at 12:07 AM
damien. Lovely…  ah, and one more thing for your order.
snaps his claws and a length of rope pops into existence- wrapping around your wrists and under a part of the table’s edge to bind them firmly down to it. Your ankles to the legs of the chair. It’s instant and shocking.
Mm, doubly lovely. Be right back with that. He clicks his pen and saunters off. A faun couple  at a table at the other end of the balcony stifles a laugh.
Rupa-Today at 12:13 AM
Oh, yeah…? I- before she can even react, the ropes instantly grip onto her wrists and her ankles tightly and firmly, anchoring them in a flash, with expert-level knotwork. They almost audibly creak with how neatly they’re tied. …!!!
Whoa! Whoa whoa whoa…! she looks down at the rope, her eyes a little bit wider, and rather caught off guard. She tugtugs, but the rope holds very firm, not budging an inch. Hey…! What’s the big idea!?
MuseMouse-Today at 12:15 AM
ovo
Rupa-Today at 12:16 AM
> >… Mooouuusssee? What are you tryn'a pull…?
MuseMouse-Today at 12:16 AM
Mouse pours himself a water from the icy pitcher and sips
Rupa-Today at 12:17 AM
=A= Hey! Ropes! You planned something. tug tugtugtug.
MuseMouse-Today at 12:28 AM
Heh… maybe.
sips his drink, looking blankly at you like he has no idea
Rupa-Today at 12:29 AM
=  =… Youuuuu totally had this planned, didn’t you…?
What’s my offense, officer, huh? = w =;
flexes her fingers. Stuck. She rolls her head around, arms thrust awkwardly and tied to the table in front of her…
MuseMouse-Today at 12:32 AM
he giggles a bit. I know what you like, is all.
So… I thought I’d treat you to a nice meal.
u v u Yours might be a bit late, though. he shrugs, clinking the ice in his glass.
Rupa-Today at 12:33 AM
=   = Hmmm? Funny business, eh…?
she thinks. a little lost for what you want to do. ‘a bit late’? It can’t be transmogrification again… that’s too predictable, and besides, damien orchestrated that. What’s this little homonculus got planned…? She blinks, a little lost in thought.
she shakes her head. The nice, brisk walk on a balmy day… a really good way to work up an appetite. .A. She’s pretty hungry actually, she just now realizes…
MuseMouse-Today at 12:41 AM
Mouse sits back and blinks at you, seemingly admiring his handiwork (hes done nothing)
-u- Look at you, all cozy. At least the chairs are nice, right?
You could probably tip it over and try to get away but. Uhh. glances around at the patrons of Damien’s.
… whispers, leaning over that might be a bit embarrassing
eventually the gyro arrives. Just Mouse’s; a paper plate with a nice thick gyro in a bed of lettuce, the meat crisped and steaming. Thick cut russet fries, steeped in a rich tzatziki sauce with sliced cucumbers.
the smell is immaculate. Nota sets it down in front of Mouse, who just smiles a bit wider at you. Thanks, Nota dear.
nota. My pleasure! 'U’ Please enjoy your meals!
she practically bounces away.
Rupa-Today at 12:47 AM
=   = she grrrs at you, shifting her leg around. “”'cozy’“”, indeed. She’s shackled to the table! TwT
MuseMouse-Today at 12:47 AM
leans forward, over the plate, hands on his cheeks. Smells goooood…
Ah… my stomach’s rumbling…
u v u
I’d let you listen… if you werent otherwise… busy.
the gyro must be a pretty popular dish; you can see a centaur in the background currently snarfing down 3 of them.
Rupa-Today at 12:53 AM
… she sees nota come up, and gets a little glimpse of hope, finally! Maybe mouse’s ~big plan~ is to cram her full of gyro like a fancy pasty, but her hope flees just as quickly once she notices that nota is only carrying… one gyro. She sets the gyro down in front of… Just mouse, all the way at the other end of the table.
And the gyro is so lovingly overfilled with meat and sauce and slices of veggie, one of the more overfilled gyros she’s seen! There’s steam still coming off of the freshly sliced meat! Her mouth is agape a little as she gawks at it… She unconsciously is leaning forward on the table. She only realizes this when a line of her drool plips onto it. Her eyes go a little wide and she snaps her jaws shut, and makes eye contact with you. Oh. So this is what you had planned.
MuseMouse-Today at 12:54 AM
o  v  o Staring at you, deeply amused.
oh my god. youre like a hyena.
grin.
Rupa-Today at 12:55 AM
she falls back into her seat with a fwoomp. She leans over a bit, over your shoulder, and notices the centaur with a pile of SEVERAL gyro. She licks her lips and swallows dryly, looking down towards the floor of the balcony.
MuseMouse-Today at 12:55 AM
Muse carefully picks up the gyro with both hands, still not breaking eye contact with you. It’s messy and hard to handle, tzatziki dripping from it..
o vo
man… you’ve never tried one of Damien’s gyro, have you
theyre soooo good… he slices the meat at the literal perfect thickness, to the millimeter…
ah… i’m drooling thinking about it. adjusts his hands, letting his tongue poke out a bit -y-
Starvin here
Rupa-Today at 12:58 AM
her expression, as she watches you pick it up, is a very strange mixture of anger, yearning, mesmerization, and shyness. She stares at the food, and the, incredibly tasty, SHE ASSUMES, mixture of grease and sauce dribbling from out of the pita bread. Her expression reads as if she’s saying 'try it, I dare you, PLEASE’.
with a different emotion for each part of that sentence~
MuseMouse-Today at 12:59 AM
o y o Stuffs as much of it in his mouth as he can, chomping down audibly. Soft crunch, and a tear as he sinks into the pita bread, taking a biiiig bite. His cheeks bulge, and you cant miss the shock of pleasure that dulls his eyes. mmph–
chews slowly, eyes closing.
MuseMouse-Today at 1:00 AM
crispy, salty, bit rough,tzatziki mediates the texture, its unreal
Rupa-Today at 1:02 AM
!!! >////< CRUNCH. She immediately nibbles her lips when you take the bite. No! No no no no no no She shuts her eyes, shaking her head! Aaaagh…!(edited)
MuseMouse-Today at 1:02 AM
’ v’ Chews slowly, meticulously
Mmmmmmmmm.
Mm mm.
Rupa-Today at 1:06 AM
It smells like lovingly, slowly roasted meat and the identifiable umami of meat fat. And just a little bit of the crispy tzatziki sauce. Even with her eyes closed, the smell of the food is still noticeable a mile away, and the sound of you hedonistically enjoying your lunch still assails on her sensitive lil ears.
MuseMouse-Today at 1:08 AM
Mmph! He kicks his head back, eyes scrunching as he forcefully swallows. Gggllnp!! Forces it down, his breath held
>/ u /<
Your sensitive ears cant escape picking up Mouse’s thick swallow.
Rupa-Today at 1:10 AM
!!!!!!! T////T AAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa her ears twitch, and her heart skips a beat, when she hears you gulp thickly. She emenates a petultant little, helpless, whiiiiiiiiine…
first bite of many. And she’s totally helpless…
MuseMouse-Today at 1:12 AM
… aaah. Hmph.
he licks his lips and smacks them obnoxiously, picking up some fries and cramming them in his mouth! Didnt realize how hungry he was, h-haha…
-/3/- nom nomph, takes another smaller bite. So good..
Rupa-Today at 1:16 AM
T///T Didn’t expect to be enduring this kind of torture todaaaayyy… Her whole body still feels that fun after-exercise tiredness, but without the after-exercise meal to cap it off. So, she just feels… energized… and tired… and… really… really hungry.
MuseMouse-Today at 1:17 AM
stuff chew chomp! Mops up some of the 'ziki with the frayed, crispy edges of the meatvegpita, and chomps in heartily. Messy.
=//=
Mmmhmhm.
Rupa-Today at 1:18 AM
she exhales and opens her eyes again, and the first thing she sees is you with your cheeks poofed full of french fries. She flinches and grumbles, cheeks hot with blush, staring down at her hands, and by proxy, her poor, empty, hollow stomach.
as if on cue, her belly, feeling very devoid of anything except a little bit of air, finally lets out a petultant, long growl…
TwT
MuseMouse-Today at 1:21 AM
he almost chokes on laughter as he hears it, covering his mouth > W <
Hnnhnhn
he swallows and pats his chest, sitting back. One bite of gyro left in his hand.
-y- ah… about stuffed… wow
… i ate a lot! Feels great…
Rupa-Today at 1:29 AM
T//A//T she can feel the empty pressure as her belly does nothing but push around what’s left of the slime and air inside of her… She slumps in her chair, flexing her feet as she watches the last couple bites of that soft pita and crispy meat disappear into you.
MuseMouse-Today at 1:30 AM
pokes the last mouthful into his mouth, chewing and swallowing. ^ 3^ mmph.
making a show of it. Which is funny to see, he’s usually a veeeery quiet polite eater. He know you’re watching. And listening.
Rupa-Today at 1:34 AM
Indeed… as torturous as it is, she’s mesmerized. The tasty food, and yearning to even try a tiny nibble of it… Not to mention just shyly watching you eat in general. God, she’s feeling such a heady mix of emotions right now…
she’s leaning over the table again. As much as her shackled wrists can let her, at least. The pita’s a lost cause, nothin’ but meat for your belly at this point. But she’s staring in nothing but desire at the fries on your plate. Anything at this point! T///T
MuseMouse-Today at 1:37 AM
u vu picks up a fry and eats it. Already full, but the fries are just… so good…
munch.
tzatziki fries… one of Mouse’s fav things. Oh he’s evil.
Rupa-Today at 1:40 AM
she staaares at your plate sulkily. Her stomach again lets out another growl…. deep and loud and rolling, from deep in her guts, as loud as thunder…
she flops her cheek onto the table, and briefly debates whether the table is edible.
MuseMouse-Today at 1:45 AM
Once he’s done eating he just sits back with his hands folded over his belly, completely satisfied.
Rupa-Today at 1:49 AM
Mmmmp…. B… .///. she’s straight-up staring at your hands folded over your gently-domed, stuffed and satiated stomach. You tucked away all of that delicious food so easily…! That huge plate of gyro… into your…. belly… @////@ Under your hands… Full… and warm…
MuseMouse-Today at 1:50 AM
u w u mmmh.(edited)
Rupa-Today at 1:53 AM
she slumps into her chair, boneless and weak. Meanwhile, her stomach feels practically concave. None of that bodily warmth you associate with a large meal. Instead, she just feels completely empty, never having even a grain of salt…
MuseMouse-Today at 1:54 AM
u vu … how you feelin? Urp.
Rupa-Today at 1:55 AM
=////= she growls. This time from her throat, not her hips.
the feeling in the warning translates to, 'how do you think?’(edited)
MuseMouse-Today at 1:59 AM
hehhh. Want me to untie you and get your food?
Rupa-Today at 2:03 AM
she hears the word 'food’, and you can see her huge bat-ears flex in the direction of the word. She picks her head up, as if she has one last little spurt of energy. ’    ’
Food?
MuseMouse-Today at 2:09 AM
hur.
u vu it should be here soon…
… here
he gets up, hand still on his belly, and walks over. Casually unties the ropes under the table, and bends down to untie your ankles
Rupa-Today at 2:13 AM
urrrrgggghhh T    T she almost accidentally slithers onto the floor, such an assault on her senses, finally released!
MuseMouse-Today at 2:16 AM
Ah ah! Mouse’s hands rest on your shoulders, holding you up. … h-haha, wow… that really did a number on you, huh? You look spent.
… shifta you so your head rests on his stomach with a 'paff’.
Rupa-Today at 2:18 AM
!!!! @/////@ aaaaaa she blushes bright when you squish her head onto that soft belly!!
MuseMouse-Today at 2:18 AM
u/ /u
Full.
hugs your head in
Rupa-Today at 2:21 AM
blrrrrrgghh flails weakly against your hands, before giving up, accepting her fate. Whines helplessly against your warm and stuffed stomach. NOT THAT SHE WOULD KNOW WHAT THAT’S LIKE, or anything……..
MuseMouse-Today at 2:25 AM
u w u
you hear a soft 'clmp’ on the table
((The rest coming sometime soon *winks but it makes a duck sound*))
