I just cannot get out of my head how very HER the whole thing is and like of course it is but it’s like she has metamorphosed into a completely different more HER version of herself all along. it’s bananas. It is like she flung open the window to her inner world, and is trusting the processes and herself more than ever before.
#It’s like TTPD is the actual fully fleshed out inner world she’s been describing her whole career… but like#It has full orchestration and feels like a musical and tv show and movie score and and and and and#It’s so Complex in ways that do feel like are locked away for only her#And to a lesser extent- us#THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT#C

If you're going to write an LDS character (or a character with a Mormon background in general) your very first question should be "are they from Utah" because trust me the answer to that question will affect how they act in *very drastic ways*
#idk how to tag this#tw religion#lds#tumblrstake#writing characters#to a lesser extent it also matters if theyre from the US and Canada or not#enough with the stereotypical white utahns i wanna see a fictional mormon character from buenos aires

One thing i love about the hunger games is that they’re all secretly musicals
#suzanne collins loves to hide a couple of songs in there#its like a little treat#shes like have a little tune with your child murder book#and i am not mad about it#then she gave us ballad of songbirds and snakes#and everyone acted surprised that it was so musical#as though she has not done this litterally every book#just to a lesser extent#the hunger games#thg#hunger games#suzanne collins#the ballad of songbirds and snakes#the hunger games sunrise on the reaping

we like to joke about the stealth archer thing. for a decade and a half now. but i think the reason why it ends up being such a common build in skyrim is because it's the only combat style that is actually satisfying to play. melee is just strafing and spamming lmb, occasionally rmb if you want to block. magic is just strafing and holding lmb/rmb. stealth archery has an internal narrative arc. set up (targeting), tension (aiming), and release (release). doing it well rewards the player with a funny ragdoll
i don't think it's because it's the best (even though it is), it's just that it's just a vastly more satisfying gameplay loop. in reverse, i would hazard this is why very few people use bows and their main source of damage in dark souls - often opting for guts-sized swords. it has the same gameplay loop of mindlessly attacking and walking away as melee in skyrim

i can’t believe fusebox fumbled this season that badly in the span of a week. what was the point of the tristan/franki drama just for the two of them AND sofia to leave the season off screen? why even give mc the option to say she’s back for revenge? why put mc in casa amor with a bunch of new boys instead of bringing us back as a casa girl with the og boys? how would our og li even survived 2 weeks being single without getting dumped? what even is the point of having your original li be so loyal if they didn’t want to leave the villa with you…?
#i’m sorry outside of andy#and to a lesser extent max bc i was irritated with jin during that season#casa amor is always a snooze fest#so to dump us for TWO WEEKS and then put us in the dullest portion of the season…..#4th season in a row i won’t finish#litg#love island the game#litg s10

Natasha, Bucky & Yelena not setting off the spider-sense and making Peter jump because They're Just That Good: nope. literally not how the spider-sense works, like at all. someone can be the best and most sneaky spy-assassin in the universe and they'll still set it off, and they can be tracked using it. unless they've specifically found a way to block it, it's not happening
Natasha, Bucky & Yelena not setting off the spider-sense and making Peter jump because Peter trusts them and sees them as a friend: Good! Food! Yes!! The meaning and implications behind people who struggle to be seen as anything other than a danger, a threat, untrustworthy "evil" spies even by their own friends and allies, and have this battle with their self worth over it, being cleared by a mystical, interdimensional psychic alarm system as 100% truly trusted by Peter (or Miles, or any spider-totem) !!!
#peter parker#natasha romanoff#bucky barnes#yelena belova#spiderman#black widow#winter soldier#mcu#marvel#i'm so tired of the spider sense being used as a way to show how good nat bucky or to a lesser extent yelena's skills at sneaking are#it's so lazy and not how the spider sense works at all#there's a BETTER WAY TO DO IT THAT'S INFINITELY COOLER AND SWEETER#yes! let them make peter jump out of his skin and squeal like a goat but make it make sense!!#mcu fanfic gripes

Thinking about "A Bard's Lament" again - I've heard and read it said a lot that if Ashley Johnson had been able to play Pike that day Scanlan might not have left, and yep, valid, but also consider this -
if Ashley had been at the table for "The Deceiver's Stand", I don't think we would've had Grog's "No. No. NO. Fix him. FIX HIM!"
BUT we would've had Pike's immediate reaction to Scanlan's death and I honestly don't know which would have hurt more
#critical role#the legend of vox machina#a bard's fall#vox machina#grog strongjaw#pike trickfoot#scanlan shorthalt#I think grog's outburst was aimed @the spellcasters. generally#pike ofc but also keyleth vex and vax#(and kima and allura to a lesser extent)#of course he doesn't understand! pike just brought percy back#pike always brings people back#why doesn't she fix scanlan right now!?#but tell me travis would've used this tone if ashley had been sitting right beside him just as emotional as the others#pretty sure it's the reason behind the change in tlovm#I went back and forth on this scene#but yeah#I get it now. I really do#;___;

This might be weird to ask, but how’s everyone together in the Murder Mystery animation? I know it’s just like, a hypothetical situation, but they’re all so far away from each other in all the maps you’ve shown. :0
Well first and foremost, the groups converge several times over the course of the story. While it's not super often, all 15 do meet up and sometimes must bunk down somewhere safe together for periods of time.
In the murder mystery anim, they are all taking refuge in Brook's farmhouse. A few mimes they trust* are there with them-- assuming they would help keep an eye out for other more hostile mimes.
So in that hypothetical, all fated 15 are there, plus Ching, Weepy, Uppsulka, TyV, Chickenstab, and Rede (*They only trust him when Chickenstab is paired with him) are all in the vicinity as well.
That's an extremely large grouping that would very rarely happen during canon stories, so I don't blame you for wondering how the hell that could have happened, lmao.
#they all have various ways of traveling and meeting each other#one of the important and most frequently used is Yuan#but there is also car travel in some parts of stolla#other vehicles too#and Lauren's Roaming House + to a lesser extent their chariot are also travel methods#plus Lauren's home doubles as. yknow. a home#so it's like a zeppelin. not suprr fast but very fortified and good for long distance travel#all this is to say: they all have a lot of ways of traveling and converging especially at the beginning

does anyone else think it’s kind of icky for goyim to “resonate” or relate to that “if there is a G-d then He will have to beg for my forgiveness” quote literally carved into a concentration camp cell wall or
#idk it just feels off to me#but maybe this is just a me thing and i need to get over it#but it irks me so bad when it gets put on those edgy culturally xian atheist collages#lesser extent ive seen it with cultural muslims too but thats neither here nor there#feels like goyim are using our tragedy a little bit#jumblr#jewish

the doctor is emotionally manipulative. he’s very good at it, and even better at justifying it both to himself and the people he’s doing it to. he can see when his approval, his affection, is valuable enough to someone that withholding it will be an effective way of getting them to do what he wants. this is one of his best flaws, that he’ll do this to people and do it to them for his own definition of what’s good for them.
(gestures vaguely) twissy.
#I LIKE THIS ABOUT HIM. I FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO KEEP SAYING THAT. I like this. its a very good flaw. its very consistent.#its there in all iterations of him (that i’ve seen)#in early episodes with rose he’ll get angry and emotionally withdrawn when she pokes at his trauma. and he knows that it’ll work because in#her own words: don’t argue with the designated driver.#he does it to jack like. a lot in utopia. his judgment only has so much sway over jack because jack is Obsessed with him and he knows that.#jack unsettles him. he uses that control to feel less unsettled. especially when he can’t do it to the actual threat of that finale: the#master. (though. he tries. that’s what the whole ‘i forgive you’ thing is about.)#eleven is practically Made of this impulse. he does it to amy. he does it to river. he does it to rory to a much lesser extent but that’s#because rory has. a vague idea? of how to have healthy boundaries. if not with amy then at least with the doctor.#that’s why his speech about people wanting to impress the doctor making him dangerous is so important. rory can See what he’s doing.#and twelve. obviously. does this to clara. clara also does it right back. this is why they are made for each other alsjjfgjakdj.#and. he does it to missy. because. and i cannot emphasize this enough. he keeps her. in a box.#I ENJOY THIS ABOUT HIM. HE’S A FUCKED UP LITTLE GUY!!!! WITH ISSUES ABOUT HOW HE REALLY REALLY WANTS TO IMPOSE HIS OWN MORALITY ONTO PEOPLE#HE KNOWS HE SHOULDNT BUT HE ALSO GETS FRUSTRATED AND HE DOES IT ANYWAY!!!!#and sometimes it’s unintentional. sure. sometimes it *really really* isn’t though. like.#and sometimes it’s both. sometimes it’s the result of him lashing out and reaching for a familiar coping mechanism in the moment.#but the point is the doctor does this.#doctor who

hmm thinking about all the lonely old businessmen id meet up with in sapporo... most of them were usually on some work trip or another and just needed to relieve a bit of tension. they'd almost always be so nice at first, but as soon as we'd be alone, they'd get sooo fucking disgusting and mean and desperate, it was really clear just how pent up work had them. luckily im pretty good at stress relief 💕
#there's guys like this in the us but definitely to a lesser extent#especially where im at#ftm nsft#ftm slvt#mlm ns/fw#ftm catboy#ftm cumdump#ftm humiliation

Otori group changing their goals from “quick and easy way to bring in more funds to the park” to “putting in the work to bring in more park attendance while maintaining the park’s original vision” & tsukasa not choosing the easy path to fame with the commercial opportunity and instead putting his full support behind the wms show & rui choosing the fast track to his dreams in curtain call but then ultimately staying with wxs (which was what he truly desired). And to a lesser extent - emu being told to slow down and take her time to learn and grow in popping in my heart/ohe and Nene refusing to just take the compliments her hero gave her and instead ask to undergo some really intensive training in canary.
#I say to a lesser extent because emu/nene haven’t really been handed a golden opportunity to fast track their dreams in the way tsukasa/rui#have. because that would kind of defeat the whole point of the first arc for emu’s goal of saving wonder stage/pxl and so far no one has#gone up to nene and been like hey come sing for us it’ll get you closer to broadway even if it’s at the detriment of others#mine#I’m sure I could spell out a more succinct point. but I’m tired.#+ nene obviously is on that grind singing wise but this took a backseat to relearning being comfortable on stage in the first arc#and often goes unnoticed due to tsukasa ‘the grind is life’ tenma#and emu’s work towards her goals is more business/pxl oriented

Sometimes i miss the days before major social media apps took over where people had like their own websites/blogs literally anywhere else than the main sites/apps now. I used to read so many webcomics (NOT on webtoon) by independent artists and followed so many fashion/makeup bloggers or artists who posted maybe once a week and I LIVED for each little update. Used to hop from one interior decor/graphic design blogs to another just being amazed by beautiful photos and stuff before Pinterest took off. People felt so much more creative back then idk. Blogs felt more unique and organic (even though yeah lots of them still shilled stuff all the time but it wasn’t as grossly pervasive as it is now). I miss that so much.
#Gunnerkrigg court is one of those comics i used to read weekly it’s incredible and a HUGE effort i think it’s still going?#I used to follow Joanna Gaines’s blog A Cup of Jo before she hit it really really big. I was obsessed with her blog….#i used to look at Loish’s blog for hoursssssss#Also was OBSESSSSSED with Emmy Cicierga’s art blog. I’m not kidding. I adored her art and her funny posts and Checked it every day#She recommended so much good music i still love today. Also followed Neil’s stuff too but to a lesser extent#Then she got a job in the art/animation industry and posts much less now and deleted that blog ;-;#I remember learning makeup tips from Keiko Lyn’s blog. Another obsession in the 2010’s#Leigh speaks#RIP old internet. You are sorely missed.#I don’t even remember the names of all the other comics i used to read but there were SO. MANY. And deviant art was still good then :(

listen my ULTIMATE STANCE is that there are just clear hits and misses on tg and tb when it comes to adapting them and i think it’s very silly to say the show favors one side of the other bc it “softened” a character as if they aren’t doing that for like,,,, multiple characters aksjd
#it’s the strangest discourse#@kingcunny once again is right it’s daemon & viserys they fleshed out. not all of tb.#i think tg is like. just clearly more fleshed out as a group.#while also suffering for screentime. but most of ‘team blacj’s screentime is like. daemon & viserys. it’s not going to jace & baela & rhaena#whereas aemond dominates screentime and both tom and ty get a few moments to shine#and there’s really clear softening of Both alicent & rhaenyra so whenever someone bitches about one or the other i roll my eyes#just say u prefer ali or nyra and go aksksjdjdj like be fr#do u kno who is suffering from being adapted the most on tg? HELAENA.#and aegon but to a lesser extent. we should have been emphasizing his relationship with sunfyre already and it’s stupid they haven’t#also Give Us Johanna.#getting on my soap box#hotd critical
