“Tinkers with home appliances (bad habit)” Me too, Marina. Me too.
(I wonder if Pearl has ever walked in on Marina sitting in a pile of deconstructed toasters with an absolutely devastated expression.)

i am in love with your sollux i think
Tumblr media
sollux love party :]
if you’re interested heres some of my personal fondness thoughts on him.. big warning for the mega long read ahead aye
as we alr know sollux's rejection of participation somewhat mirrors dave's rejection of heroism, but even without getting cooked to completion i still find sollux's character v compelling beyond the fourth wall
as someone who doesnt get a pinch of that Protagonist Sparkle to begin with, he can openly say he wants to leave anytime…. and unlike dave, he actually Can leave the scene anytime. but he can never be truly Free from the story via permanent character death like the other trolls.
his irrelevancy is indeed relevant - he’s there so u can point him out.
while his image is intended to be a relic of past internet subculture, his role is not only about hehehaha being a Chad or a 2000s cyberforum 2²chan haxxor ragequit gamebro.
his continued existence also happens to add a Bit to the overarching themes of homestuck! a Bit that gives him longer-lasting thematic relevance compared to the trolls who could’ve had more character potential but didnt get to survive beyond the main story.
the Bit in question:
his defiance contributes to the illusion of agency (treating characters = people with autonomy). he’s “aware” of it, and that recognition is worth noting enough to forcibly keep him alive as both reward and punishment.
considering how his personality & classpect is designed its definitely a very haha thing for hussie to do LOL. he’s made to be op asf so he's resigned to doing dirty work, gradually deteriorating along the way but never truly dying. as fans have mentioned before, him openly rejecting involvement after a while of grim tolerance is like if the sim u were controlling suddenly stopped, looked up and gave u the finger while u were step six into the walkthrough for Every Possible Sim Death Animation.
but since he’s just a sim… the more he hates it, the more you keep him around. if ur sim started complaining abt your whimsical household storyline you’d definitely keep that little fuck.
but yeah i like that sollux is just idling. the significance of his presence being that one dude who's always reliably Somewhere, root core Unchanged, no individual ambitions (possibly due to fear of consequence?), and design-wise: a staple representative product of his time.
compared to dirk's character, who has aged phenomenally well into the present (themes of control + AR + artificial intelligence, clearer exploration around navigating relationships/sexuality, infinite possibilities of self-splinterhood and trait inheritance), sollux's potential is really... contained. bitter. defeatist. limiting and frustrating in the way old tech is.
Tumblr media
the world continues moving on to shinier, brighter, more advanced automated things - minimalist and metaverse or whatever but sollux is still here 🧍‍♂️ going woohoo redblue 3d. (tho personally i imagine his vibe similar to what the kids call cassette futurism on pinterest mixed w more grimy grunge insectoid influences eheh)
conceptually-speaking,
at the foundation of it all, the rapid pace of modern development was built off the understanding of ppl like sollux in the past, who were There actively at work while the dough was still beginning to rise
thats one of the cool things abt the idea of trolls preceding humans! the idea that trolls like sollux excelled back when lots of basic shit still needed to be discovered, building structures like networks and codes from scratch, and humans will eventually inherit and reinvent that knowledge in ways that become so optimized it makes the old manual effort seem archaic, slow, and labour-intensive.
but despite information/resources/shortcuts being more accessible now, much of the new highly-anticipated stuff released on trend still end up unfinished, inefficient, or expiring quickly due to cutting corners under severe capitalistic pressures
meanwhile, some of the old stuff frm past generations of thorough, exploratory and perfectionistic development still remains working, complete, and ever so sturdy.
those things continue to exist, just outside our periphery with either:
zero purpose left for modern needs (outdated/obsolete)
or
far too important to replace or destroy, bcs of its surprisingly essential and circumstantial usefulness in one niche specific area.
which are honestly? both points that sum up sollux pree well.
Tumblr media
dramatic ending sorry. anw are u still on the fence or are u Sick abt him like me </3

"What’s the opposite of nostalgia, like nostalgia but bad"
Uh, trauma?
Man we have got to use other words than “trauma” for stuff that isn’t actually traumatic. The brave little toaster didn’t traumatize me. It gave me a feeling of significant yet harmless dread that also, honestly, wasn’t really an unusual effect for kids’ media of its era. It upset me as a kid to see these friendly appliances get lost and broken and imperiled, and treated unkindly by other appliances they met, but “nostalgia but bad” definitely isn’t synonymous with “trauma”.

My family's toaster broke and I really wanted toast. Instead of getting a new toaster, I decided that I should toast my bread in the microwave.

i think a good and compelling romance story should work even if it were platonic.
if the relationship of the two main characters is only compelling is because they are expected to get together, then thats no good.
but, if the two (or more) characters have an interesting dynamic, chemistry, as well as just generally good writing, then you could easily make them compelling without even having to be romantic

(F I V E)
5. What's your controversial marine biology take? Oh, have I been talking about my controversial takes these past few days! Ocean sunfish.... beautiful, so silly but so beautiful.
To name another thing, perhaps this is moreso something that grinds my gears rather than a controversial take but I haaaaate when people say that male seahorses get pregnant. It's what it looks like but it's not the case!!! He just has a pouch where the egg are deposited for safekeeping, it's like mouthbrooding but with a designated pouch!! He does not produce the eggs and all the nutrition the eggs receive was never from him!!! Perhaps I get too hung up on these aquatic animal technicalities, but it still makes me needlessly annoyed whenever in fiction there's like, seahorses, and they imply that the process of seahorse baby development is the exact same as human baby development but.... backwards for sexes..?

can you do some toaster (blooming panic) x artist!reader headcanons? (it's okay if not ofc!!)
RAHHHHH FINALLY A BLOOMIC REQUEST!! IM SO HAPPY ! THANK YOU ANON!! I took this as mostly a visual arts perspective because I assumed that's the kind of art that you were talking about. 
✿ NakedToaster with a S/O Who’s an Artist ✿
«────── « ⋅ʚ♡ɞ⋅ » ──────»
He likes to draw a little bit as a hobby, but doesnt take it too seriously. So hes intrigued when you bring up the fact that you’re an artist.
Very impressed when you show him your art for the first time!
Like he thinks its so cool. 
If you drew him he would literally like. Break. Melt. 
He would keep the file/physical copy forever!!
Sometimes he likes to try and do some of your drawings in his own style
If you do commissions he’ll always be promoting them
Hell, he promotes your art regardless
He would probably commission you to draw his favourite characters, or his FFXIV avatar. 
OR BIG MARTY FANART !!
Would definitely buy you art supplies and stuff just as little presents. 
Like if you mention a specific paint, or pencils, or markers, whatever you need, there would suspiciously be that exact thing that you mentioned waiting for you
It makes him really happy when you use the supplies that he gave you. 
Like!! You made that masterpiece! With something HE gave you!
Makes him very proud
If you do exhibitions or gallery shows, he definitely goes with you to support you. 
Has your art hung up on his walls in his condo, especially at his desk and near his computer
Also likes watching you draw/paint/do your art
He thinks its such a fascinating and interesting process!
Just how your hand moves, with each stroke of a brush or pencil, and how it all comes together

What’s the best way to let people know you need something tagged. Do people actually look at pinned posts should I make a banner or something. I’m dying out here

Okay, but. SWK Truth serum au. Imagine him being forced to communicate. Comedy, hurt/comfort, and finally clearing up, well, everything. I’m not sure where I’m going with this, sorry. Have a great day, bye!
“You know who broke the toaster, Monkey?”  The word “yes,” was pulled out feeling forced and unpleasant.  Pigsy looked like he already knew the answer before he asked. Wukong wasn’t sure why he bothered asking at all.  “Who?”  “I did.”  “Of course…” Pigsy pinched the bridge of his snout and sighed before looking at him, brows furrowed with some familiar annoyance that made Wukong’s hands twitch. “Mystic Monkey strength and all that I bet.”  Not a question so Wukong just gave him a forced smile instead of answering. He glanced away to look over at where Mei and Mk were arguing over whether it was sane to put butter on plain bread without toasting it first.  “Nothing to say for yourself?” Pigsy asked after a long moment of silence.  “No,” the words slid out, unraveling, too many.  It made him lightheaded the more he said, not unlike the feeling that came with blood loss. Dizzying and empty. Every word took something with it as it left him. “It never matters what I say.”
Anon you have no idea how desperately I want to write an entire fic about this, I have been thinking about this constantly since you sent this ask bKL;SDMAFAOWEF
