#After the Clown of course

No you know what. I thought Joker 2 was good. And I’m tired of pretending that it wasn’t. Reasons under the cut bc of spoilers.

Because the thing is… Arthur was never the incel power fantasy that a lot of people made him out to be the first time around. He was never a true figure of “white male rage” because fundamentally he was a figure of an extraordinary level of social/classist and interpersonal abuse that led him to violence that liberated him from that (as is the case with MANY mentally ill and socially disenfranchised people in the world), but the violence was absolutely never the thing that defined him as a character, but that’s always the first thing that people miss when a character is reduced to black and white elements in the zeitgeist. But this movie definitively proved that all of the incel dude filmbros, as well as average detractors who reduced him to that “white male rage” narrative the first time around were not reflective of him as a character because in the end, even ARTHUR HIMSELF held himself accountable for his crimes, even fessing up to killing his mother in the eleventh hour. And his subsequent death after this revelation even further drives home the point that how he exists as a figure of nuance could never survive in the world that created him OR the world that allegedly “embraced” him. And I think that’s kind of beautiful from a meta-narrative standpoint and VERY faithful to how the first film operated.

my sister: you live inside an echo chamber of your own opinions

me: How can I live in an echo chamber when I have to talk to you lot everyday

i often think about his elementary school teacher being the first demon/person he recognized before his prom date and his friend + they had so many teachers so this one mustve had a big impact on him and also like. sickening to think about them already following around sam as a child to "keep him on the right path"

My favorite Shanks theory has got to be why he was taking a vacation in the East Blue of all places.. Like all these crazy theories out there saying he might be secretly evil or that it was his grand Master plan with Luffy's devil fruit and all...

Meanwhile, imagine if Shanks was there just to sneakily check up on buggy. And what great luck! Conveniently, A government ship just happened to be sailing in the same direction Giving him the perfect excuse for his visit... and that's how Shanks really ended up with the infamous devil fruit.

Love Alfred with a cross bow... BUT COME ON THE JOKE WAS RIGHT THERE, THE PARALLELS, "the son of dracula" vs "the son of hellsing", also let one iteration of Hellsing be a gremilin, a swer rat, the manifestation of obsession turned insanity

what if rogue got a onesie like his cat fresh?

No idea whether you’d be surprised by this fact or not but he does have one

This also made me realise that I hadn’t drawn them matching yet. Despite what Rogue’s face implies, he’s having the time of his life

Here’s instances of him matching with Frosch

+ in this episode Frosch says that they bought him a matching outfit and another character is trying it out

Me mentally preparing myself to go to the confession when i know speaking about my recent sins to the priest who knows me well is going to be the most embarassing thing ever and make me feel very stupid:

(okay but jokes aside this method actually does wonders for me highly recommend just stop caring that you'll sound like a clown and a fool yes you will and it doesn't matter Jesus is here to heal and forgive you ❤️ )

dude i soo agree with what you're saying about twitter

have you seen those tweets that just- Blatantly ignore that Welcome Home is an actual project and call it "just some guys OCs", because THAT is genuinely what I find the most rage inducing out of everything on twitter. (The rest is frustrating too of course, but the devaluing of Clowns work makes me... very upset.)

IT'S VERY STRANGE I AGREE.... i can only assume that the statement was Originally something along the lines of "hey, this website is just the prologue - a big chunk of welcome home is still in development, so try to be reasonable with your expectations and give clown some time and space to do his thing" eventually mutated into "um ACTUALLY he just made the site to show off his ocs and if you even THINK of making fanwork based off of them you're a DIRTY FANDOM POISONED FREAK who is RUINING CLOWN'S LIFE" as it got passed around from site to site, in much the same way that "hey, i can't stop anyone from being attracted to/making NSFW works of my characters, but i would really appreciate it if you kept it private until i think of a tag you can put them in" (which for some reason people were Still incapable of following - i didn't forget) got turned into "if you even LOOK at a puppet with sexual intent i can and will kill you on clown's behalf."

idk why people are so weird about not having rep tv yet when she was hinting at speak now and 1989 for ages before announcing them

just so you know how normal the UK is, left wing climate change activists and anti-monarchy protesters are getting jail time and beaten for simply holding up banners and being considered disruptive whilst right wing bullshitters against shit like ULEZ (literally about having areas that are specifically for ultra low emissions so we, y'know, don't constantly have to breathe in fucking car fumes and other pollutants because some fucking people actually bizarrely want to???) and road safety limits EVEN FUCKING RIGHT NEAR SCHOOLS are driving basically massive vehicles through the streets and are not considered a disruptive protest

thoughts on the charles contract extension rumours and the other guy apparently having a harder time finalising his?

My thought is that it's an opportunity for Scuderia Ferrari to be the funniest team on the paddock:
