Blitzø's Name In The End Credits

A while ago, I saw someone point out that Blitzø's name on recent episodes (in the credits) had an X over the O and went to check it out. It turned out to be true and decided to keep track of it until it'll change again.

I wasn't going to search deeper than that, mostly waiting on how it'll go but I decided to check if it was any different than the ø that we're supposed to know. So...

When I saw this in season 1 episode 1, my jaw was on the floor.

I'm sure people have pointed this out before, I've only seen about the recent X over the O but I'm sure this ain't new. Part of me had noticed but when months pass between episodes and you don't actually pay attention to the credits, the change is so minor that it kind of never happened in my mind.

But the fact of the matter is-

all of season 1 had Blitzø's name written with the o. No "silent O", just Blitzo. Until...

Queen Bee.

If people were around, they know Queen Bee did not release after Ozzie's but we're pretty certain it was done way before season 2 began (even though it released in the middle of it). Anyway.

Maybe the change from the o without a line and the ø with the line wasn't so weird when it happened, especially since season 2 was out and the change had already been implemented, as seen below ↓

But it only lasts up until Western Energy. After that...

The X appears.

This is definitely on purpose, I simply can't figure out the purpose. My only theory is that it's supposed to represent Blitzø's declining mental health and severe self-hatred/low self-image taking a hold. I do not know. I can only point out the events on the previous episodes before the changes were done.

Ozzie's/Finale: Blitzø was faced with his past in the most disastrous way, ending with the start of his relationship with Stolas falling apart. His self image crumbled further.

Western Energy: Blitzø was faced with the fact that Stolas can get/be hurt. His view of the immortal/untouchable Stolas crumbled. Assumption, he might blame himself for not being there.

I don't know, I'm just thinking and I'll probably be obsessed with this until we see what else they do.

even the infamous pirate captain james flint isn't immune to the gay urge to shave your head when having a psychological crisis

I've been struggling with something that I'm sure might be happening to some of you too. So the thing is, when I'm reading a buddie fic I can't stop picturing Eddie with the mustache, I just can't get it out of my head.

All the Eddies in my head look like this and I can't avoid it:

I don't know what I'm gonna do when they shave it off because I have grown quite fond of it.

It's Supposed to Be Fun

(a letter to my friends in the twst fandom)

I've been wanting to make this post for a while and these thoughts may seem scattered but I’m gonna try to express them. 

Lately, I have seen many friends and moots that either are leaving the fandom or feel guilty over not having posted in a while or losing interest in twst. On the other side, I also have friends being harassed.

This a reminder to remember why you joined this community to begin with. I know that keeping up with the fast-moving pace of fandom and comparing ourselves to others, can skew our perspective on these things.

It’s supposed to be fun. 

Why do we post art or write? Sure, partly for recognition, there's no denying that. But, why do we create, I mean really? For enjoyment. Not for others, not to be “popular” FOR JOY.

So, whether you’re dealing with people critiquing you or feeling guilty about not creating. My question is this: Why waste so much of your time on something that makes you miserable?

Did it stop being fun? Why? Haters? Loss of interest?

To my friends who feel guilty for not creating and not sure if they lost interest in twst: 

Don’t feel guilty. At one time, the creation of your twst content was natural. It's what you did for fun with friends or for yourself. Revisit that mindset and think - if creating twst content now will bring that same joy it did before.

If the answer is no, then maybe it’s time to pivot. It’s okay for interests to fade. It doesn’t mean that time, memories, or the friends you made are lost. Connect with your friends, we will understand! We still love you! It's not a race there's no time limit, just pick up were you want to. Draw fanart of old events or OCs.

To my friends who have been harassed: 

I say this with sincerity…. People who harass others over fictional characters are fucking losers.

Like… There’s no other eloquent way to encapsulate it. I’m starting to not care for the reason anymore - If you harass or be shady to others over a ship or fictional character. CONGRATS! YOU ARE A LOSER.

We all join fandoms as a hobby, for fun. We’re all just kids in the sandbox playing pretend again… and if you are the type of person to go up just to “kick the doll out of someone’s hand" or make commentary on how “their way of playing is wrong." You’re a loser. I have a life outside of twst, we all do. Someone saying my ship is wrong or cringe is just so laughable to me. We have to make fun of these people more for being so goddamn lame.

Imagine being so unhappy that when you see someone having fun you HAVE to comment on it. By all means, if it gets you through the day...talk shit to close friends or even post about it on your own blog. (THAT WAS ALWAYS ALLOWED.) Don't bother creators directly. Don't be a loser. I sure see tolerance leave people’s bodies when they see a fandom opinion they don't like. (And this is coming from someone who has lots of opinions on these things! But that's why I always put the disclaimers that, hey this is just MY opinion.)

Discussion is one thing, unhelpful comments are another. We shouldn’t give these people the time of day. Curate your online space. Yes, when you post things online you are subjecting yourself to scrutiny. But, we as creators need to stop letting these people have power over us. Period. We do this for free!! FOR FUN. The best thing you can do is create shamelessly.

Delete weird replies, block whoever you need to do to rid yourself of these people who have nothing better to do. Keep your peace. It’s supposed to be for fun. You don’t owe anyone a response.

The twst fandom is like a little family to me and I guess I feel protective over the people in it?  I have made many friends and memories because I joined it. And even dispite a handful of the negative experiences (AKA: A couple of “losers" that I’ve had to deal with.) I’ll always look fondly back on this time.

The key for me has always been to just…create for myself. I originally made bunnwich for me and one friend to make fun little arts about our Yuu’s and now I get to have lots of friends to share it with! I’ve transitioned from an OC blog to probably more of an Oc x Canon blog…but I don’t care tbh. I just…draw what I feel like. I know there are people who probably dislike me for that or feel strange about my content and that’s fine. I’m still gonna keep drawing it, loser.  

And I just want you guys to do the same, twst or not.

I can’t forget that all my followers and friends are a bonus, if I had never joined tumblr I’d still be drawing the silly shit I draw in peace. And while yes, I do want to grow as an artist and sell more merch and keep growing... I can’t forget my initial excitement for this silly little game. I like to talk about it. I like to write about it. It inspires me.

It’s supposed to be fun. Please remember that. I know it can be discouraging to have others being shitty to you. Or going through a creative drought. But, try not to let this stop you from creating what you love.

I am suddenly interested in the Navi 👀

I’m currently hyperfixated rereading Ftfo and can barely do any drawing but I’m trying!!! ‘^’ Designs are easier to draw for some reason so might see only those for a bit T-T

anyways have my version of Lord Lunar’s Gemini! They get fun new outfits!!!

Sometimes I feel like only Peter Parker gets how humbling it is to be poor jesus christ. I am enjoying my time despite not being my cup of tea (I am a dialogue person, I love dialogue I love dialogue as a dog loves little delicious treats. 60's comics unfortunately do not have the best kind of dialogues). But I am enjoying it, almost as a concept, hecause Stan Lee and Robin Dikto do not have the fear to show a pathetic little man, they don't have the embarrassment of showing your hero getting rejected by the girl, forgetting to let his suit dry and having to wear a wet scrunky suit, showing him being arrogant, being annoying, a very very antisocial guy.

I think reading so so many comics where it's clear how much the writers are trying to make the hero sound cool, the smartest, handsomest and smoothies guy in the room.

Peter is kind of a breath of fresh air. He gets it, he really does. He's not cool, he's not there yet. He's a kid doing dumb shit. Trying to do better, failing and failing and trying. No wonder so many people who got to read his comics as they were growing up hold Peter so close to their heart.

Because he's the proof you can try again, you can fuck up, in ten, twenty, thirty hell maybe forty years from now it won't matter. Just try again. Stand up. Try again.

@sciderman talks a lot about how Spider-Man is about reaching manhood and I've never get it, sure as a concept yes but I couldn't grasp why. Now I do.

It's not about waking up and being the man you should be, being responsible for having a cool montage of getting better and better. Nah it's the every day thing. Peter isn't (at least what I am getting of the comics while I read at my pace and time) the representation of becoming the power and responsability thing, he is the representation of having this as a goal. And trying each day.

honestly abed was so real for not even caring about free drinks and just having someone's attention to talk about his interests. even if the other person had ulterior motives, at least they were listening.

but on an even realer note he should've gone and talked to troy about them. and also had gay sex with him.

a little confession: i got into Hermitcraft through Life SMP (and even that one i discovered mere months ago), so i wanted to know which came first for the lot of you

[just-more-pr0mts]

This may have already been done before but here's my take on things. Sorry if it seems like I copied anyone but this was a shower thought

(I edited it a bit)

In an alternate universe, where danny does get electrocuted, but instead of becoming a halfa and protecting his town, he dies.

All that's left is a smoking corpse. But out of that corpse comes danny. In his ghost form.

And in his panic he hides his own body and his ghostly body adapts, he looks almost human again. But who's going to notice if his teeth are sharper and his skin paler?

Certainly not his parents, but maybe his friends, classmates?

Que Danny instead of becoming a superhero-vigilante he's just a normal boy trying to hide the fact that he's a ghost replacing the person he once was.

Shenanigans ensue, and we follow danny doing ridiculous things to keep his secret. And everyone can see that somethings wrong with him, but he just won't accept help!

His rouges instead of fighting him are trying to get him to understand, to move on. That he can't stay here forever. But he is still a child, a grieving child. And so they fight, they argue, they cry and eventually come to a conclusion, they'll give him until the end of high school to figure it out, then he has to come to the ghost zone.

And now all appears to be going well, it's almost been a year since his death day. 8 months 1 week 3 days to be exact. But something is bothering him, his parents are working on something, something big. The fights he had over the last few months attracted thier attention and that isn't a good sign.

Jack and Maddie Fenton have made a weapon. A weapon that can pull a ghost from where it's hiding. They announce to the world thier discovery and along with it thier plan. They were going to 'study' these creatures and determine if they were a threat.

People around the world have been split. Half were in full support of the Fentons and half called them out saying thier plans were inhumane and dangerous. They protested outside Fenton works.

And Danny? He was scared he was worried about what his parents might do if they found out.

Tha brings us to now as danny was being dragged at his feet desperately trying to get away as thier machine pulled him toward the cage. He clawed and kicked but it was no use, he sat in the cage hands at the bars. Looking out at the see of people and hundreds of cameras, fear clear in his eyes.

His parents, his mom, his dad they looked at him, horror etched into thier faces. Where is our boy?! Where is our son?! What have you done with our baby? They cried. But turned away from him when he gave them his answer.

"Am I really that unrecognizable?"

[gingersnapwolves]

previously on "Kouri vs. Her Family", I mentioned that my brother is really irritated at my dad because they all live in the same house and my dad chose to live in a place with kids and dogs and then gets upset when they act like kids and dogs.

probably worth mentioning that

my parents have had dogs and my dad LOVES our dog so if he doesn't like Rex it's because Rex is, you know, a monster

my brother's kids are, uh, a lot

they originally were planning to get a place with a separated in-law apartment but couldn't find one

my brother said something along the lines of "when we planned all this, they were younger" like bruh???? what did you expect to happen? you are an adult man, you should be aware of the passage of time

(wasn't that the entire point??? that you'd have them around to help with the kids and then you'd be able to take care of them once they got old????? if that wasn't the point, what was? just being able to afford a bigger, nicer house with my dad's money??????)

anyhoo

my dad emailed me yesterday with a house listing in the city I live in 😂😂😂 (about 45 minutes away from my brother). no preamble, no context. just a Zillow link and the text "I will explain when I can be assured of privacy"

and because I am a good, dutiful daughter I looked at the link and said I would not recommend that particular house because it's right by a very busy intersection and it's not a great neighborhood, but I found a couple others they might like, if this is indeed for them and not for some OTHER person he knows (my dad knows zero people)

to which he said, "Mom thinks I am overreacting. I am still inclined to move." and now we're meeting for lunch this weekend so I can't WAIT to see how this goes and test out my 'marriage counseling for your aging parents who have the communication skills of toddlers and haven't compromised on anything in 50 years' course

stay tuned!

LUPE GARCÍA and JESS MCCREADY A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN | 104 | Switch Hitter

[rantyapramble]

So, the last generation hashira. I'm curious about the order they became a hashira. A lot of people have done this I think, but I'm still going yap about what I think. This might be wrong tho. (Just REALLY need to get this out to someone.)

I think it's safe to say that among the last generation hashira Gyomei is the first to become a hashira, right? He's a hashira at 19, thats 8 years before the end (last ep of hashira training arc). If it's 8 years then Tengen was 15 which means he likely was still in the Uzui family doing shinobi stuff because the head appoints you 3 wives at 15 (taisho era secret). He's still in the process of running away from home with his 3 lovely wives, I guess. If it's 8 years then Giyuu was 13, then he was at final selection with Sabito (ep 2 hashira training arc).

From Sanemi's first pillar meeting, we can see Giyuu, Tengen, Gyomei, Kanae, and ofc the freshly minted hashira Sanemi. The order would be Gyomei, Tengen or Giyuu, then Sanemi. Because Kanae is still the hashira, meaning Shinobu wasn't a hashira yet.

From Rengoku's gaiden pillar meeting, Kyojuro can see 5 hashiras when attending the pillar meeting after his father stopped attending the pillar meeting. Kanae was replaced by Shinobu and Kyojuro wasn't a hashira yet. The gaiden is the story of how Kyojuro became a hashira in spring (the smell of sakura flower...cries). So the order here would be Gyomei, Tengen or Giyuu, Sanemi, Shinobu, then Kyojuro.

After Kyojuro would be Obanai, Muichiro, or Mitsuri. I don't know the order though... I think Muichiro is after Kyojuro but idk. Because he became alone at 11 right? His demon attack was in summer. His birthday is in August, summer. Which means the demon attack was right after he turned 11 in August, summer or at summer before August, his 12th birthday. After that he was in recovery at Ubuyashiki's mansion. He started practicing swordmanship with his injuries not healed yet. After that he became hashira in 2 months. The time between the demon attack and he becoming a hashira should be rather short. I think he either (1) just turned 11, gets attacked, then became a hashira before 12 (...so young) (2) was 11 before August, gets attacked, turned 12 at August and then became a hashira after that (with Rengoku and Mitsuri timeline, most likely) (3) was attacked in June at 11, became a hashira before August, and turned 12 (no matter how fast Muichiro is, most unlikely). With the most likely possibility (2), Kyojuro became hashira at spring when he was 18 (his birthday in May) and Muichiro was 11 (that spring). Then summer that year Muichiro got attacked and turned 12 at August and after that became a hashira (in that same year?). Muichiro is fast rising in ranking so I think it's Kyojuro-Muichiro-Obanai but it could also be Kyojuro-Obanai-Muichiro. There isn't much to work on with Obanai so I don't know for sure.

But I think Mitsuri is the last in order. In the Rengoku gaiden timeline, Mitsuri was a Mizunoto, training with Kinoe Kyojuro under the cherry blossom blooming at the Rengoku house. She was 17 when her marriage proposal got cancelled. After 17, she found the demon slayer corp and joined. It took her 6 months to pass final selection and became Mizunoto. That how it should be, but if THAT year Kyojuro was 18 at May, Muichiro was 12 at August, then Mitsuri should be 17 at June 1st. Or did she turned 18 that June? Or was Kyojuro 19 when he became a hashira or did Kyojuro became a hashira AFTER spring or was Muichiro got attacked right after he turned 11 and then took almost a year in recovery or was the gaiden timeline messy/not official? I'm so confused...*brain melt* I think it's wrong...

Whichever it is I think Mitsuri is last because at the time Kyojuro became a hashira she was still a newbie Mizunoto. And she first met Obanai because she was lost at the Ubuyashiki(?) mansion then she ask him for direction. So I think Obanai became a Hashira before Mitsuri because he was more knowledgeable than Mitsuri about the mansion.

The final order from that confusing rambling is Gyomei, Tengen or Giyuu, Sanemi, Shinobu, Kyojuro, Muichiro or Obanai, and Mitsuri. This is just my opinion tho. Could be wrong. I wanna know more about the hashira so bad. It's confusing.
