#this is why i believe love is fake

[bylroos]

anyways enough emo textposts its time for me to talk about that the mv for history by olivia holt featured leo howard, but then they never actually got together, and thats my fucking villain origin story

#im allowed to be clinically insane about one (1) cishet couple #like u can't give us four years of whatever the hell j/k was on kickin it #and then reshoot ur ENTIRE MV because u decided to call up leo howard on a whim and decided he fit the theme better #than the og actor u had #in a song abt getting back together abt an ex u have insane chemistry with #and proceed to never get together w him #and expect me. aged 11-14. to not go fucking insane #this is why i believe love is fake #and also nobody deserves rights #if there was a god it would've put them together and i mean that genuinely #i cannot stress enough how much they defined my early years of shipping #like to this day every single otp i think i've ever had has had some similarities to kick in some way #its so bad #they permanently altered me #its so fucking bad #anyways what if i go rewatch like half of kickin it #or just the iconic epiodes: wazombie warrior kim of kong new jack city kickin it on our own parts 1 and 2 spyfall #TWO DATES AND A FUNERAL #cannot describe the complete insanity the words two dates and a funeral instills in me #whatevr the ep was where jack meets kims dad] #and the one where shes a gokart qween #its the szn 2 eps that hold SUCHHHHH a place in my heart tho goddamn #im sane #personal

I just don’t think the truth divides. I think the lie does

#no but there’s sooo many people I’m encountering recently that are like no no we just gotta look at this issue or question and go #well we can’t really know #that’s the only way to keep the peace and be loving #if we take a stance it becomes divisive and we don’t want to do that #so we are just going to be United by ignoring all the differences #and. I don’t think that’s right!! I think that’s fake unity!!! that’s putting on a happy face and throwing a rug over all the cracks in the #foundation instead of going hm why are those there what should be there #what is true and what is a lie #and of course a lie is something you don’t want to be believing in #I just think the lie is divisive. the division is already there #the truth must be found out. and that’s the thing we should agree upon #and I do think if you are willing and open and seeking and putting all the things together #you will find the thing that ties all the things together and that’s the truth #and that will be unitive

one thing that never gets old is yusuke losing his shit over kuwabara dying just to realize he's actually fine and then beat his ass over making him so worried in the first place

#ik it only happens twice but how many fake outs can one guy have #yusuke gets a fake out of his own (revenge) #like it's so not funny seeing him so desolate over it but like #it's kinda funny when kuwa is like ''🫵🏼😂 this mf cares about me awww'' #it's so wholesome when yusuke kicks his ass over it cos ''i cant believe i cried over you and you're FINE'' #i was reading the manga again and what can i say i love them sm #what gets me in the 2nd fight with byakko is hiei being the one to spot kuwa and point him out like #why did u even bother if u dont give a shit about him 🤨🧐 okay shorty #anywaysssss #kuwameshi #yu yu hakusho

Ok sorry I’m long overdue for a follow up of these tags I left on your post lol. Here goes: In my brain, the role of a cop is a very masculine one. Like obviously there are female cops but whenever they appear in media ( at the ones I’ve seen) they always are very masculine. So with Hayward whole thing about performing the role of a standard cop I think he was also performing masculinity in a very standard way. His whole arc in season 2 has also been about learning who he is outside of that performance so he I think he can also start to experiment with gender and get silly with it. I think that’d be good for him. maybe this only makes sense to me but thank you for the space to expand upon me ideas.

This is paige and Hayward season three. my final message

I just saw this response omg loving where you head is at... gotta get this out on the record before s3e3

#he can be gnc like harry dubois never let himself be #the silt verses #investigating officer hayward #hayward's gender has GOT to be weird like his whole thing with his wife who doesn't exist is SO gender #god I need to go back and rewrite 'come hell or high water' to make Hayward's wife not have been real #I think Jon and Muna have heavily implied that Hayward's wife was supposed to exist at the end of s1 #but Jon decided to make her fake retroactively just to fuck with us #(in a 'just to fuck with us (affectionate)' kinda way #I don't believe in rewriting fic to conform to canon but the fact that THAT'S the fanon they canonized is *so* fucking good #a tasty tasty treat for us gremlins #but his wife that doesn't exist... he's like an alien in a human body doing a dane cook routine at work #whenever he talks about his wife who doesn't exist hating him I'm reminded of that John Mulaney bit #of 'my wife's a bitch and I don't like her? That's not a comedy routine! That's a support group for men in crisis!' #like Hayward. you invented this woman #she isn't real #why did you make her a bitch who doesn't like you???? #and who YOU are pathetically still in love with #Like that's the craziest thing he doesn't even portray himself as in a failing marriage #he portrays himself as being desparate to stay in a failing marriage even though he isn't in love because he's afraid of being alone??? #like hello am I speaking English here that's fucking insane in the membrane #siltposting #anyway thank you for answering my ask sorry to write this tag novel when you were just trying 2 help

examining a seemingly normal image only to slowly realize the clear signs of AI generated art.... i know what you are... you cannot hide your true nature from me... go back where you came from... out of my sight with haste, wretched and vile husk

#BEGONE!!! *wizard beam blast leaving a black smoking crater in the middle of the tumblr dashboard* #I think another downside to everyone doing everything on phone apps on shitty tiny screens nowadays is the inability to really see details #of an image and thus its easier to share BLATANTLY fake things like.. even 'good' ai art has pretty obvious tells at this point #but especially MOST of it is not even 'good' and will have details that are clearly off or lines that dont make sense/uneven (like the imag #of a house interior and in the corner there's a cabinet and it has handles as if it has doors that open but there #are no actual doors visible. or both handles are slightly different shapes. So much stuff that looks 'normal' at first glance #but then you can clearly tell it's just added details with no intention or thought behind it. a pattern that starts and then just abruptly #doesn't go anywhere. etc. etc. ) #the same thing with how YEARS ago when I followed more fashion type blogs on tumblr and 'colored hair' was a cool ''''New Thing''' instead #of being the norm now basically. and people would share photos of like ombre hair designs and stuff that were CLEARLY photoshop like #you could LITERally see the coloring outside of the lines. blurs of color that extend past the hair line to the rest of the image #or etc. But people would just share them regardless and comment like 'omg i wish I could do this to my hair!' or 'hair goallzzzz!! i #wonder what salon they went to !!' which would make me want to scream and correct them everytime ( i did not lol) #hhhhhhggh... literally view the image on anything close to a full sized screen and You Will SEe #I don't know why it's such a pet peeve of mine. I think just as always I'm obsessed with the reality and truth of things. most of the thing #that annoy me most about people are situations in which people are misinterpreting/misunderstanding how something works or having a misconc #eption about somehting thats easily provable as false or etc. etc. Even if it's harmless for some random woman on facebook to believe that #this AI generated image of a cat shaped coffee machine is actually a real product she could buy somewhere ... I still urgently #wish I could be like 'IT IS ALL AN ILLUSION. YOU SEE???? ITS NOT REALL!!!!! AAAAA' hjhjnj #Like those AI shoes that went around for a while with 1000000s of comments like 'omg LOVE these where can i get them!?' and it's like YOU #CANT!!! YOU CANT GET THEM!!! THEY DONT EXIST!!! THE EYELETS DONT EVEN LINE UP THE SHOES DONT EVEN #MATCH THE PATTERNS ARE GIBBERISH!! HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE THEY ARE NOT REAL!??!!' *sobbing in the rain like in some drama movie* #Sorry I'm a pedantic hater who loves truth and accuracy of interpretation and collecting information lol #I think moreso the lacking of context? Like for example I find the enneagram interesting but I nearly ALWAYS preface any talking about it #with ''and I know this is not scientifically accurate it's just an interesting system humans invented to classify ourselve and our traits #and I find it sociologically fascinating the same way I find religion fascinating'. If someone presented personality typing information wit #out that sort of context or was purporting that enneagram types are like 100% solid scientific truth and people should be classified by the #unquestionaingly in daily life or something then.. yeah fuck that. If these images had like disclaimers BIG in the image description somewh #re like 'this is not a real thing it's just an AI generated image I made up' then fine. I still largely disagree with the ethics behind AI #art but at least it's informed. It's the fact that people just post images w/o context or beleive a falsehood about it.. then its aAAAAAA

Tenko Shimura is literally Tomura Shigaraki’s real name

Tomura Shigaraki was given to him in his maybe early teens (he looked older than 5 but idk for sure). But it’s not the name he was born with.

Shigaraki is AFO’s last name. AFO groomed and psychologically tormented Tenko for 16 years.

Tenko Shimura is his real name. I’m going to repeat—REAL. NAME.

And y’all are still screaming about how Tomura Shigaraki is the “real him” (????) and how Tenko Shimura is a completely separate person??? Like with a whole other brain mind body thoughts etc??? It’s the same Tenko with the exact same memories and feelings we saw in MVA 😭 at what point did that Tenko become some other sentient entity lmao

WHYYYYY

#Tomura is the real him :( #yeah well tomura is miserable and unhappy and angry and— #Tomura is fake #he’s fake news #lol #I love him #that’s why I want him to be tenko again #bnha #boku no hero academia #shigaraki tomura #shimura tenko #god bless I cannot believe this is such widespread discourse #idk when villain Stans stopped wanting shigaraki to be saved but okay #negative #salt post

trying to formulate my opinions on The Spot by holding my sister as a captive audience while i loudly rant around her apartment

#it is a cold fucking day in hell when i let a middleaged white man take credit for a black teenager’s accomplishments and choices. #i don’t care if he’s fictional #i can’t believe some of you are eating what he’s saying. if we’re rejecting miguel o’haras idea of destiny then why are we accepting #this monologue from a dumbass who can’t accept that he’s the way that he is because of his own fucking choices #you CHOSE to work for those labs YOU CHOSE not to evacuate sooner #he couldn’t have predicted what happened next. but don’t pretend you didn’t choose this #anyone can be spiderman but miles had to CHOOSE this #your fake ass had nothing to do with his leap of faith in the first movie… #miles is made of everyone he has ever loved and respected #fuck this destiny nonsense. the spot sees Miles spark and CHOOSES to mold himself into its shadow in a desperate bid #to feel like his miserable life has any meaning #he’s a threat he’s a narrative foil he’s got the insane visuals to mirror miles. but he is NOT destiny incarnate. #the next movie is going to be about Miles rejecting The Spot as much as he rejects O’haras rules #he said it himself he’s sick of other people telling him what his story’s supposed to be about #damn what is it about writing in the tags that makes things more cohesive. #across the spiderverse spoilers #atsv spoilers #spiderverse spoilers #pizzazz meta #edit: for the record i think The Spot is a great villain and i do appreciate what he does for the narrative #but i dont believe him like i believe in miles

the whole time i watched “everybody dies” i wondered why there was a fire. it felt too much like a device, too obvious, something put in place just to get house to make a decision

but it hit me just now: fire is rebirth, it’s been symbolic of rebirth and reincarnation for centuries in so many cultures.

gregory house “died” in that fire, and when he comes out of it, he’s a changed man. his hallucinations of stacy and cameron made him realize his faith in love if not god, how much he loves wilson and how poorly he’s treated that love, and how no, he isn’t doomed by nature to be selfish, and how he has the capacity for selfless action (when he saved his patient’s life even though that meant the patient couldn’t go to jail for him - even though it meant he couldn’t be with wilson). and while house has realized his capacity for change before (e.g. “broken”), the fire symbolism is so heavy-handed - especially considering it’s the last episode of the show - that it could only mean house’s rebirth is intended to be read as lasting, even permanent.

#so he decides to live. he decides to fake his death because he realized he’s capable of finally honoring his and wilson’s love for each othe #*other without repeatedly taking advantage of him. #i have so much more to say. his faking his death was his killing off his old persona #and embracing that he's ready to face the possibility of wilson dying. because he's now sure that he'll survive it #which aligns with what stacy said about wilson dying being good for house. and what wilson himself said: 'there's only one person in the wor #*world you can count on' #house md #im gonna kermit yall. embracing the possibility of wilson dying = house is ready to endure pain to be there for the people he loves #and i refuse to believe it stops with wilson. for sure that's why he decided to live and decided to fake his death #but i refuse to believe his selflesslessness and capacity for love stops with wilson. otherwise there would be no point to stacy telling him #that she and cuddy weren't the only people he could've had a life with #like she said. if it could've been then it can be in the future too #goshhhhhhh. i'm so proud of house #8x22 everybody dies #vaaya moodu #hilson #houseposting

iiii dont think im gonna post much amagaday about this arc, because i don't enjoy the interpretation that jon was completely innocent in taking live statements, nor do i think basira or especially melanie were irrationally upset at him, and i know a significant amount of posts at least read as if people vehemently disagree

#look it wasn't completely his fault either but i think tma is fundamentally ABOUT this question of control #over your own actions and participation in perpetuating harm #but it's so juicy that Jon didn't tell anyone. that's a choice he made. was it a fair one? maybe if he'd told them immediately after #the first or even second they wouldn't have reacted as poorly or could've prevented 3 4 and 5 #but its also fair that he was scared to tell them. with how vehemently Basira was fighting monsters. dealing in intel. not people #but he did do it. #he didnt say 'help Basira hold me back! I'm being taken over by the Eye to take Floyd's here statement!' #also i cannot believe it took me seeing that fanart i reblogged to consciously consider the lens of #3 women confronting their friend/coworker/fellow hostage about a complaint from a woman that he harassed her #not that thats the only lens it can or even should be viewed through but #just felt like. oh. duh #also why I've been kinda dreading s5. since thats the one i was actively in the fandom i also actively remember #The Discourse #[dun dun duuun] #funniest post was the one that called tma fake queer representation a full 10 episodes after jon had said 'i love you' to martin #joos yaps #(and also finally... hot jon rights) #(i have a lot of thoughts but i dont want to get too worked up and portray things unfairly so this is all yallre getting today)

not evrarts fault hes fake as hell to ultralib harry. cant help being a gemini <3

i'd say he's the least fake to ultralib harry imo. like you can make harry tell evrart he's a racist or a superstar or any other ridiculous shit & he'll be like "yes yes very swag of you mr dubois" but if you make harry ultralib he's like "shut the fuck up moron"

#that being said he is soooo fake & i love it. & i dont believe in the zodiac at all BUT he is so gemini that's why i love him #same sign <3 & i am also fake as hell #not online this is where i come to express myself but irl my greatest professional skill is being FAKE and being CONVINCING #im soooo normal abt evrart i definitely don't think we're weirdly similar in several ways #anon #ask #de #evrart claire

I’m honestly team Jason by himself,this dude has so much trauma to unpack that he should focus all of his love and attention on himself and then,one day,find some that understand him and love him for who he is.That’s when Reyna comes in,she has been his friend through anything and she would understand and support hime(giving him the time and space to heal)more than anyone else.They would have made a really good and healthy couple one day🥺

YES YES YES THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT IT IS IN MY HEAD TOO !!!!!! anon u literally read my mind i love u SO much for this 🗣

#˖◛⁺⑅♡ luvletters #i strongly believe jason shouldve never been in a relationship throughout all of hoo 😭 #him and reyna getting tgt is a late teens/early adulthood type thing in my head #when hes finally confident in who he is as a person!!! they could've had a cute uni romance but nOOOOO #i will forever be bitter over jiper being the canon couple #NEVER made sense to me never will because why did they get over the fake memories thing so quickly #also in my head jason def remembers at least a TINY bit ab reyna when he first wakes up #if not cz shes lit his best friend then because hera loves him and wants him to have that one tie to his past self #i never liked how jason never got his memories back #anonymous ೀ

Is anyone gonna gif the looks of absolute disgust Palm was giving Ben this episode orrrr,,, cause he’s the only one reading the massive levels of SNAKE that boy’s giving off and we love to see it

Like look at his face before and after Ben starts talking to him. Mwah, perfection

#I actually really like Ben!!! #believe it or not I think he’s got a funky character #I LOVE characters that have a kind bubbly popular kid friends with everyone exterior #and then the second you poke a stick at their insecurities or true nature they flip a switch and show like murderous intent #I LOVE that #it’s the reason why despite everything he did I sort of really like Vegas from the start of KinnPorsche #I love snake characters… so intricate so interesting #but more than snake characters I love the character who clocks them at minute 0:00 even more #especially when they don’t go out of their way to expose them #palm is like ur so fake but I’m not gonna be the one who says it just stay away from me #and good for him #never let me go #never let me go the series #palm #Ben

[windowsandfeelings]

weirdly everyone else being so defeatist about the Nancy Drew finale is making me feel more optimistic about it?

At the end of the day this has been the "the plot sucks but the character work is excellent" show for 2 seasons now so why not go out that way?

#nancy drew #honestly the promo helped a ton #but also I DO get what they were trying to do with this plotline #and if it weren't the penultimate episode I would probably be LOVING IT #so I'm trying to remember that #still think it's dumb that they didn't plan this as a final season #who was looking at the CW last spring and thinking 'sure this seems fine'???? #especially when you're nearly the lowest rated show on the sinking ship! #it's a fucking MIRACLE that we even got a fourth season WHY would you expect a fifth???? #and it's way easier to move forward from a fake series finale than it is to pivot to a real one anyway COME ON #but still I want to have faith #I want to believe they managed it #I'm choosing to believe until proven otherwise #(I also genuinely liked the episode. My issues are just with where it falls in the season.) #anyway bring back the 22 episode season and you won't have these problems #or the 18 episode season I'll accept that too #(but 22 is preferrable)

[dimiclaudeblaigan]

this is a very venty post don't mind me :D

that nintendo direct was so horrible.

it was literally like 80 percent remakes and remasters.

never in my life have i seen an announcement video exist just to say "every game you've ever known since the 90s is being remade/remastered, sorry, we ran out of originality".

literally like all the video game market is anymore is remakes and the movie industry is just as bad.

the nso releases are fine because they're not like, remakes taking up full game slots. they're old games that are being made accessible and that's great... but there's no need to remake this many games when they can do that. remakes used to be rare. remember stuff like the wii u shop and stuff? with all the games they had on those things? now it's a tiny selection and everything else is a remake :/

also I feel like a lot of new rpgs are just like... lowkey fe knockoffs now instead of original rpgs.

i'm happy for like... two existing remakes, but one of them is mario rpg which people wanted waaaaAAAAAYYYY before the remake and remaster era, and the other is baten kaitos which im not actually happy about remaster-wise (the updated ui is trash, they took out very specific charms of the original ui), just happy that it will get more recognition/notice from people since it was never popular.

they also completely removed the english voice acting which like okay yeah it wasn't always that great but the voices fit perfectly and it wasn't as bad as fans meme on it for! it just sounded like they were talking through a tube and that was actually the worst part of it lol.

someone suggested to me that they may have just lost the data for it, but idk. i wish they'd just admit that somehow if it was the case, because it bugs me that the english audio is just completely gone when ultimately i really liked it. i wanted the game to be accessible to newer players, sure, but i also wanted the english audio there. ig that's because i grew up with it and i liked it, but it's still such a bummer for me!

paper mario being put on the nso and tyd getting a whole remaster does make me sad tho bc it feels like they're leaving the original in the dust when it was so good. if you're gonna do tyd, at least do them both.

good for innersloth though, i'm sure they never imagined being on a nintendo direct. they're the real winners here.

#DCB Comments #the FE fandom is just as bad too. every single solitary direct that comes up they're like #OMG FE4 REMAKE. like ??? I used to be just annoyed but #now I'm just feeling the “shut the actual fuck up” mood bc it's ALL they care about for FE anymore #nobody wants new FE games. they're just obsessed with the idea of remakes #it's more annoying bc it's all the majority of the FE fandom talks abt anymore #also does anyone even know if games on the NSO ever get a remake or if originals of remakes go onto NSO? #wondering bc I don't think I've seen a game on NSO get a remake or vice versa #like I was always wondering if Mario RPG would be on the NSO but it never was and now it has a remake coming #since FE4 6 and 7 are on the NSO I can't see why they would be if remakes were coming #also if they're in the process of making a new console do y'all still think they'll release Gamecube on the NSO? #idk if they'd release PoR on it since they'd prob remaster that one (I don't want a remake for it but remaster might be nice if they #update the map graphics and stuff) since it would net them way more money to release the game as a standalone but if they #did put it on NSO I'd really love that. I get up I play PoR. I lay down I PoR. I go in the car I play PoR (I don't drive lol) #but anyway yeah I'm just tired of every single Direct having FE fans being annoying as fuck #also ppl were apparently legit like omg the new banner coming means fe4 remake will be on the direct #oh my goooooddddd stfu at this point I just don't want it remade bc i am 💅 p e t t y 💅 bc ppl are so annoying abt this #when a leak for a new game came out (engage) from a very reputable source ppl knocked it and called it ''obviously fake'' #(the joke is now not just ON them but IS them) but then when they got a ''leak'' abt an fe4 remake they ate it up #like wow lol. wow. they won't believe anything unless you say fe4 remake then suddenly they believe anything you say abt that alone #it's rly sad that my favorite game has become a cesspool of annoying fe fans #the thing is fe doesn't come out with a whole lot of remakes. it never has #it's just that when gaiden got a remake ppl have NOT shut the fuck up ever since #and I've seen ppl saying every game under the sun should be remade #frankly if they remake anything right now it should be poor fucking shadow dragon (yes. the remake.) #anyway most of y'all know how annoyed i get abt this lol like yeah maybe someday fe4 could get remade but #it's the fact that the modern day fans are SO fucking annoying about it now. back ten or so years ago fe4 fans were just happy TO play it #we were just happy to have it at all even in emulated form and it being an snes game #we loved it as it was and didn't bitch about it bc it wasn't uwu modern enough (and i've played casual mode since new mystery) #now ppl are just like oh i like it but i don't want to play it unless it's remade

okay, just read about my lovers again. feeling calm. 😌

#idk why i wrote this post like a facebook status… don’t worry about it #not all of them… like three of them #i actually no longer want him to commit murder #but i still think it could happen #not sure if he’s capable of being a fake bitch - but i’d be interested in finding out #honestly everything i ‘want’ to happen in this book is just me wanting to put the characters in the most WILD situations #just to see what they’d do #i need to knowwwwwwww #i told my mom the plot so far and she’s convinced that it’s all gonna tie together in the end #i’m not so sure #i don’t think it’s that kind of book… the storylines are linked thematically - not necessarily narratively #so the endings will depend on each other but not always in a direct sense is my prediction #i don’t really care how it ends to be honest… i care about everything that’s going to happen between now and then #still cannot believe i’m only about a third of the way through #there is still SO much more time for the characters to get pushed to their limits and i am HYPE for it #i love them - i’m rooting for them #to succeed or fail - whichever is more interesting
