something something wei ying only accepting his feelings for Lan Wangji when he feels they are returned, despite knowing deep down (very deep down) that he's had a crush on him that blossomed into something more since he was 15.

something something wei ying only talking about it being actually hard to he coreless to anyone years and years after only when a secret he died with was exposed and he couldn't hide anymore; and his response being to just put it all behind.

something something wei ying blatantly questioning why he was treated unfairly in Lotus pier when he was younger yet glossening over those memories in a cycle of "it wasn't that bad," and "it was sorta bad."

wei ying not responding to any of Jiang Cheng's remarks or anyone else's but going to look at his face in a river after slapping himself and only standing up when it's Lan Zhan getting slandered

wei ying being his usual sunshine self at burial mounds and later revealing that of course, he knew at that time, that it was all a matter of time

in cql and in the donghua we get the "I threw him into the burial mounds" but in MDZS? we don't.

something about how anytime there's a scene we feel would speak to wei wuxian, the narration switches to someone else, whether it be Jin Ling finding it weird that he didn't say a word in Iron Hook Extra while figuring out that the hero just wanted to scream; or instead of his thoughts about the servant matter, being shown Lan Sizhui's "Wei wuxian looked confident so it shouldn't affect him"

something about Wei Ying stating he doesn't care for people's opinions and he doesn't really but still listening to what they're saying and thinking if they're right or wrong and hiding his face from Lan Wangji

something about Wei Wuxian looking into Lan Wangji's eyes during the Koi Tower scene and thinking he looks disgusting

AHHHHH

#MXTX did such a great job to show how even characters who are mostly mentally stable #but go through such terrible stuff in their lives develop coping mechanisms too #someone play mirrorball #wei ying is gonna talk around his issued he's going to convince himself he will forget he wont even care he will boast #and then cringe because god why is he so pretentious #in reality he really loves affection #he was deprived for so long #honestly #wei wuxian #lan wangji #wangxian #mdzs #mo dao zu shi

Eat your past. Eat it and make it go away. Eat it and let it fester inside you. Eat it and let it dissolve in you, sustain you, slowly become a part of you until you cannot imagine a life without it. Eat your enemies, who are just as empty as you are. Eat your trauma until it rips you open from inside and your guts spill out onto the sand. Eat your brothers and watch them die with you. Swallow your love. Swallow your affection, choke it down, soured by time and the cold hands of evil men. The fruit of your labours is overripe and rotting, bruised to sweetness by beatings and heavy chains. You are a weapon, are you not? An animal - nothing more, nothing less. So act like one. Devour. Bite the hand that feeds because all you have ever known is rotten meat. Life tastes like poison, love even worse.

Eat your lover before they can eat you.

#pretentious sith lord word vomit what #couldn't focus in biology bc of this Stupid Fucking Red Man and thinking about how much i want to punt sidious directly into the sun #sorry irls for being cringe :( but the autism is too strong today #it demands a sacrifice in the form of terrible cliche pseudopoetry #should i tag this obimaul? idk idc #obimaul #maul #you motherfucker #one day i'll shut up about star wars cannibalism but that day is not today #jase writes

If you're cringe, don't worry. At least you'll never be as cringe as American converts to Catholicism whining about the Pope being a Marxist.

#I'm areligious but fascinated by these chumps #Thomist theology reduced to cringe aesthetic for pretentious American racists

Anyway, as an alloaro, greyromantic, aceflux and non-communal Aro: Happy Valentine's day. You are not "Aro/ace/Aroacephobic" for celebrating your love. You are not doing Valentine's Day wrong if your celebrating your platonic love or love for yourself instead of a romantic and/or sexual partner. You're not hurting fellow LGBT people by enjoying your love and celebrating it. Valentine's Day can mean many things for many people.

And for those who will spend today tearing them down, trauma dumping, complaining, calling people aphobes or other insults for celebrating or trying to claim this day is unnecessary and exclusionary.... I hope you heal. I hope you can learn to love yourself.

And when your done healing, I hope you learn that some things just arnt about you and just because they arnt, doesn't make them bad. It sucks to not feel personally included in a wildly celebrated holiday but many people survive st. Patrick's without being Irish, Easter without being Christian and the 4th of July without being American or having American pride. This isn't any different and you don't have to like Valentine's Day, but understand for many gay couples, interracial couples, trans couples, interfaith couples, polycules and so many other people whose love is oppressed and destroyed, this day is a day for them to show their love.

No one likes a Grinch.

im gonna be real w u guys i just realised that we come across as pretentious about the themes of whatever house our saturn is in, in order to appear “cool” so other people don't see through our insecurities (when in fact they do 👀)

#lmfao bye i just made this observation from the way this girl was spouting a load of pretentious nonsense #and how so many people including me act this way #and it does look cringe when we do this

the real reason that wrathion and anduin could never forgive each other is that anduin is an emo purist who only listens to american football, car seat headrest, home is where and rites of spring, and wrathion is a myspace emo who only listens to metalcore and pop punk

#they ask sabellian to settle a dispute on what is or isnt emo music and he replies #“Real Emo” only consists of the dc Emotional Hardcore scene and the late 90's Screamo scene. What is known by “Midwest Emo” is nothing but #while saying that Sunny Day Real Estate is #I can't help not to cringe because they are just as fake emo as My Chemical Romance (plus the pretentiousness).#Real emo sounds ENERGETIC #POWERFUL and somewhat HATEFUL. Fake emo is weak #self pity and a failed attempt to direct energy and emotion into music.#Some examples of REAL EMO are Pg 99 #Rites of Spring #Cap n Jazz (the only real emo band from the midwest scene) and Loma Prieta.#Some examples of FAKE EMO are American Football #My Chemical Romance and Mineral #EMO BELONGS TO HARDCORE #NOT TO INDIE #POP PUNK #ALT ROCK OR ANY OTHER MAINSTREAM GENRE

People who are/were Obake fans, may I ask you one question:

How would your "interpretation" of Obake react to canon!Obake? I'll go first:

Canon!Obake: Wh-who are you?

My Obake, in a priest outfit: I'm you from another universe.

Canon!Obake, confused: Why are you wearing priest clothing. We aren't that religious.

My Obake: Huh, oh this. Yeah, some god found me "relatable" and chose me to be his favorite. I found that out later on as my sanity slowly decreases. I won't go on into the details, but at least I found my brothers.

Canon!Obake: I had Brothers?!

My Obake: Hmm. Oh, I keep forgetting it's not universal. Sorry about that.

Canon!Obake: Huh?

My Obake: Also, I have more children than I had before. A biological son with my ex wife.

Canon!Obake: EX WIFE!

My Obake, continuing: A deer child with my new wife.

Canon!Obake: NEW WIFE! DEER CHILD

My Obake: A Cosmic Child and a new android daughter with my sorcerer boyfriend.

Canon!Obake: Wait, wait, wait- Boyfriend? I thought you had a wife.

My Obake: Yes and Boyfriend. *turns to the 4th wall* I'm Bisexual and Polyamorous.

Canon!Obake: What are you looking at?

My Obake: I also adopted a grown woman scientist.

Canon!Obake: You know I'm not gonna ask about that anymore. Is that all you want to tell me about, "other me".

My Obake: Hmm, oh yeah. *is digging through his pockets to pull out a little goober*

My Obake: This is what keeps me going and does not make me end my life.

Canon!Obake: What? What is that?

My Obake: A plush of a Puppet name Wally.

Canon!Obake: Why do you have that?

My Obake: It keeps me sane. Anyway, goodbye, Superior Me, have fun destroying San Fransokyo. *Left to a portal*

Canon!Obake: What just happened?

Writing in 3rd person is so funny cause I’ll be writing normally in one person’s pov and then there’d be an interaction with another character and I’d randomly slide into their pov without even feeling it and then I’ll switch back to the first character like nothing happened…like babe stick to one, you can’t know both characters’ thoughts at once😭

#It’s still infinitely better than first person #I despise first person #I used to love it actually #but then at the ripe age of 12 I spent a whole summer reading mcu fics on ao3 #and my brain was permanently altered #I cringed when I read a book with first person lmfaoo #this was the beginning of my pretentious era #fanfic #writing #ao3

how is it okay to call people who simply enjoy a different genre of music than you 'braindead' and stupid. disliking taylor swift's music does not give you the right to be wildly misogynistic about her. disliking her music does not give you the right to rampantly hurl abuse at anyone who does enjoy it. this kind of behaviour makes me so incensed because tell me what other artist gets this level of vitriol thrown at her for just doing her job? what other fanbase - comprised predominantly of young women - gets attacked with such a vicious level of malice? you can claim it's not misogyny but at this point no one's going to actually buy into that

#taylor swift #and miss me with the whole 'her lyrics are bad and cringe' shit. none of you have listened to peter/robin/so long london and it shows #yh some of the new songs have interesting lyrics. that's what happens when you have a mental breakdown after a 6 year relationship breaks u #lmao. as if you would do any better #honestly it's the people who in the same breath call her pretentious and un-self aware as if she's not a businesswoman #who consistently makes intelligent decisions about her own brand and is deeply aware of herself to the point where she's addressing #her own mytholigization from both the media and her fanbase. you want to criticise her? feel free.#i can promise you she has already thought those same criticisms to herself - and worse ones too.#there's nothing you can throw at taylor swift that she hasn't already thrown at herself.#but also - how disrespectful to another human being to call their deeply personal account of their own experience 'cringe' and 'immature'#like congratulations! you've discovered human emotions. chronically messy disruptive and 'cringe' things that they are

people who endlessly shit on rupi kaur's poems are more pretentious and harmful than people who endlessly praise them actually.

it's not like there's nothing problematic about the poems. You're just a snob.

#rupi kaur #poem #poems #poetry #pretentious #cringe culture is dead #cringe culture is stupid #cringe culture #snobs #text #positivity
