the thing that gets me the most about culture warrior weebs going "the anime designs for the greek gods are so much better than the woke leftist designs in hades" is that they are simultaneously the ones actively getting mad at hermes being east asian in the game. like they want to fetishize asian aesthetics so bad bc they cant let go of their oversexualized anime waifus but the minute an asian person actually gets depicted they lose their fucking minds

jewish culture is talking to a jewish friend about jewish holidays and theorizing about a drag show for purim, which turns into "what if I start a jewish drag bar that has daytime programming for minors (and adults) and nighttime programming (for adults only) to be a queer inclusive jewish space somewhere (which we queer jews desperately need more of), and seriously starting to consider it, so now you have to think about what you'd name it if you DID make it (taking suggestions for my hypothetical jewish drag bar)

7/? Of my Genshin redesign, Barbara Pegg! You can find the rest on my account <3

I dropped the nun theme and made her a devout follower of the church who is a bard and idol, who expresses her love for mondstat through creative freedom and music. She’s a community leader and sets up a lot of social projects and loves to write music. I hope you like the design! I love how it came out!! <3

Act 2 of BG3 is just about half-elves antagonizing each other and making it your problem

It's really depressing that the only real Jedi centric and Jedi positive show in existence is written for preschoolers, while many of the more "adult" shows are edgy and about morally ambiguous or straight-up evil characters. As if lessons about being kind and selfless are somehow not important or relevant to adults just as much if not more than they are to children.

It feels like characters who are unambiguously good are seen as only enjoyable by the very young and adult viewers will only actually appreciate characters who are cruel and selfish (and the requisite "tragic backstory" that always goes with it to help excuse their cruel and selfish choices).

It's just really sad and disappointing.

How the RoR Gods are in canon: We would never date a mortal, they're so beneath us!

Fanfic Writers: *insert John Cena Meme* ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT??

kuko n saru in the same room .what will happen

while kuukou has the ability to mesh with anyone, i still imagine his interactions with saru would go just about as well as terra trying to get saru to do anything lmao

but who knows???? maybe saru’s extreme end tsundere-ness will unlock the evil side of kuukou’s people reading skills and is about to play saru like a fiddle to be his friend LOL

😭 ppl r bringing up laios being white not bc they believe dunmeshi universe has the same racial dynamics but bc he is othering shuro by bothering him abt his homeland and stereotyping. in case that wasn’t obvious

i fucking hate caitlin doughty

since when is the funeral industry on anon in MY INBOX?

jokes aside tho i was gonna delete this and then realized it's a great excuse to recommend to everyone this interesting video about caitlin, her work and the funeral industry titled "does the funeral industry really hate caitlin doughty". especially recommended to my follow deathlings from outside usa because there is an interesting mention of people who aren't american getting some false ideas about funeral industries in their own countries which is a fair criticism! although i think caitlin tends to make it clear what is exclusively (or largely) an issue only in the american funeral industry and i think it's moreso just another case of american cultural hegemony around the world if anything. you can't really blame caitlin herself for focusing on the country she lives in and the realities she's most familiar with. but anyways. give this video a watch

Granted I have the overall geographical and cultural knowledge of a 4th grader but from what I can tell the nuclear family model really does seem to be a white colonial invention

Different cultures have different approaches but I mainly hear about either large family units where multiple generations support each other and raise their children and grandchildren together or an "it takes a village" approach where children are raised somewhat communally

And I can't really speak on it much or claim that these families were free of abuse or that children aren't often an oppressed group basically everywhere I know of but the way ownership of your children is so engrained into white society is so bizarre

Like once you notice it you can't unnotice it even the most loving well meaning parents don't know what to do about it because everyone is so isolated from their own families and their own communities so you wind up with 1-2 parents who have full legal ownership of their child and are raised in a culture where you don't have personhood until you're 18 and all attempts at self actualization before them are seen as clueless rebellion. Like our culture is so divorced from the concept that a parent is someone who is helping mentor and care for their child so they can thrive as a fellow human being and it's actually so alarming

And ik this problem isn't unique to white and colonized people but it's honestly really soothing to hear about how other cultures approach and view parenting and community as a whole and to internalize it doesn't have to be this way

sigh…. might make isat warrior designs

[the-acid-pear]

see the thing that gets me about the human centipede is that you're either a normie going to watch a movie and getting scared over nothing of you're a freak whos going like WHAT'S ALL THIS THEN?! and like both can backfire bc i cannot stress enough The Human Centipede is such a stupidly tame movie there's barely any blood at all but thing is what makes me be SO insane about it it's that Heiter's actor May He Rest In Peace just put his WHOLE PUSSY into playing him making it such a fucking enjoyable and hilarious movie.

Like you cannot go watch the human centipede first sequence expecting to be scared bc you'll get bored in the first 40 minutes of doomed yuri but you gotta embrace the sheer campiness of it. Nobody cares about the campiness bro. He makes chicken sounds. He makes horrible silly chicken noises. Are you listening to me.

Saw the teaser for the next ESO DLC and I'm gonna go rabid. I'm hyperfocusing now. I'm leaving my worldly possessions to run free in the jungle and be one with nature.

I just hope they do Bosmer justice in this DLC, or at least follow their damn lore for once please. Make Bosmers enjoy being Bosmer for once.

Thought about Starleon for too long LET ME OUT

[todayisafridaynight]

I’m always so paranoid I’m being fetishistic by being a weeb; i.e. writing names in japanese in the tags (am learning jp via self-teaching methods) and reblogging photos of Tokyo (mostly Shinjuku) and sometimes hot anime chicks. And then you get these LUNATIC ANONS 😭😭😭. I always get a revelation of, “Ah. I should be nice to myself.” Because holy shit they send me into hysterics.

My lunatic anons are totally normal idk what you mean
