One thing thatâs annoying about pit madness as a trope in fic is when people act like Jason killing people is the result of magic induced compulsion and not a fundamental philosophical difference between him and the other bats. Jason was already saying âwell maybe she had a pointâ about a woman who killed a serial killer rapist when he was ROBIN
#not even getting into Gargonzas#The killing vs not killing debate is about what is justifiable/necessary in the pursuit of protecting people and what constitutes justice#magic bloodlust need not factor in#Jason Todd#Dc#To Jason killing is an efficient way to deal with a problem. Itâs a difference in ethics and modus of operation#Itâs something heâs willing to compromise on for the sake of being a bat but even modern post âredemption arcâ Red Hood still has the#occasional attempted murder

You know, I feel like other trans people might get this, but it's honestly kind of refreshing when a cis person has, like, undeniable tboy/tgirl/whatever swag. It's like when you come across somebody who speaks the same language as you and you only find out when they start speaking it, too.
#trans#transgender#lgbt#lgbtq#ftm#mtf#nonbinary#all this to say that we are existing on a rock hurling through space#and this universe is going to collide into another and does it all truly matter in the end?#a lot of this is based on ideas we have about what constitutes certain people and i think it can be a fun observation#so long as you do not inherently ascribe certain traits as being indicative of who somebody Is#it can be amusing when you're SO confident that somebody is a certain way until you realize how Wrong you were#the amusement for me only comes because it's like... 'you tried your best to box somebody and you FAILED lmao'#and in a weird way it's kind of comforting because it reminds me that we all come into this world with bias that Will be challenged...#...so the best thing you can do is recognize those biases and then try to overcome them through great effort...#...so yes maybe i did think that cis dude had tboy swag but. that's not inherently his problem you know?#it probably just means he's confident in his manhood in a way that reminds me of the trans men* i know and love#i noticed that in him and it reminded me of my friends who are trans so i think 'oh! maybe that's why he's giving off those vibes!'#so while i won't treat him any differently before or after finding out i was wrong i'm still going to appreciate the fact that...#...he and i are literally just Vibing on the same planet and we both don't have time for petty arguing about manhood#i'll acknowledge what inspired those thoughts in me but that is Not his problem and that's good and beautiful actually#i don't always mind the tboy/tgirl swag meme just so long as you don't treat it like an Inherent Trans Experience Only Trans People Have#just recognize where those ideas are inspired from and it's fine <3#sometimes you will be Wrong and that's actually fucking neutral <<3#anyway rant over i just think this is /generally/ harmless and fun#like astrology. sometimes you just look up your star sign without ascribing your Entire Life to it <3#i think what i lot of people mean by saying a cis person has tboy/tgirl swag is just that...#...that cis person has an understanding of themself that comes from deep introspection that isn't necessarily expected of cis folk...#...but it is often something trans people do as part of our exploration of gender...#how is this the FIRST POST to reach tag limit... ask me for more thoughts if you want lol!

Big fan of the trope you've made of an Ani-mom adopting Every Host On Earth. First Eva, now Naomi.
Love what you're doing with the Yeerks Drop Dead AU!
Thank you! I've always loved the AniPTA (the parents, Chapman, Nora, Mr. Tidwell) because they all feel like fleshed-out characters despite having such minor roles.
But yes, Naomi and Eva are two of my favorites for both being a) good moms who are b) smart as hell and c) ice-cold ruthless as needed. That's not a combination you see much in fiction, even these days. I don't think either of those two would offer you a sticker if you were feeling down, but either one would carry you up a mountain every day for the rest of your life if that's what it took to get you water.
#animorphs#anipta#naomi berenson#eva animorphs#i never never never stop thinking about the contrast between michelle wanting to improve the lighting in the hork-bajir 'enclosure'#vs. naomi teaching them to read so they can write their own constitution#michelle is a good and caring person who's the unmatched expert in all animals' health#but michelle is a flower and naomi is a knife; both are needed in different ways at different times

So The Bear ends season 2 with Carmy fucking up his pretty serious relationship with Claire. They spent an entire season developing this relationship between Carmy and Claire, and now it's over, and not just over, but abruptly and painfully over. Throughout this same season, they continue to develop Carmy and Syd's relationship, incorporating undeniable nods toward an eventual romance.
Then in season 3, they have Carmy dealing with the fallout of his painful fuckup, that ended a relationship that was, as I said, pretty serious, and was developed over the course of an entire season. They do this while continuing to develop Carmy and Syd's relationship, and while their interactions are mostly tense this season, they continue to incorporate blatant nods toward an eventual romance.
This is happening at the same time they have opened a restaurant, and Carmy is under enormous pressure, pressure that has been made worse by his breakup. Pressure to make the place a success, to live up to his potential, but also to make sure that Tina has an income, that he gives Marcus's mom what she wanted for Marcus, that Ebra, elderly and at the point where he really needs to be retiring, continues to have a job, that he doesn't endlessly waste his uncle's money, and crucially, so that the restaurant can earn that star Sydney is dreaming of, and that Carmy didn't even want.
And yet there are people genuinely criticizing The Bear for not canonizing SydCarmy this season, when...?
The man just went through a devastating breakup -
At the same time he opened a goddamn restaurant -
And is clearly going through the crisis of a lifetime -
And on top of that, he's just quit smoking.
Do you think, in real life, that it's realistic someone in that situation would immediately turn around and start seeing someone else? Do you think the writers would have spent a whole season developing Carmy's relationship with Claire, just for Carmy to shrug it off like it was nothing when it ends?
I'm even more baffled by the idea that SydCarmy not becoming canon this season is because the writers this whole time, have just been, what? Fucking with you? Straight-baiting you? Or do you think that just because they didn't canonize SydCarmy this season that this is indicative that they didn't intentionally allude to a future romance between Syd and Carmy?
I will tell you right now that The Bear is one of the most purposefully written shows I've ever seen. And while I will say that this season might be the weakest so far and wasn't what I was hoping for either - Nothing on that show is an accident. Nothing means nothing.
The writers of The Bear are too good to have accidentally implied SydCarmy was a thing. They are also far too dedicated to their vision for The Bear for them to be throwing things in just to fuck with you.
Have some patience maybe? When was the last time you watched a show that didn't hand you something the moment it was hinted at? Aren't you tired of watching shows that skip to the good part? Which is, as a result, not as good as it would have been?
#the bear#sydcarmy#I don't know I'm just venting#I had my own criticisms of this season but man#I felt like I was being punked when I realized how many people feel slighted sydcarmy isn't canon yet#and then on top of that there's like a lot who have decided that I guess this means it was all about platonic love the whole time?#and I'm sorry but#there would be nothing wrong with Syd and Carmy being friends#but the writing devices being used in this show to develop their relationship and inform our understanding of who they are to each other#are explicitly romantic#there is no other way to read it from just a narrative standpoint#obviously in real life friends can look like anything.#But in fiction friendship and romance are both written about very differently.#Might not always be that way but as of right now it is and the bear generally isn't about challenging those dynamics or our understanding#of what constitutes them. It's not subverting our understanding of platonic or romantic love. That's not what the show is about.

a somewhat under-acknowledged premise in the whole USAmerican Evangelical Ethos⢠is the fact that a good number of these people genuinely believe that being constantly oppressed is an inalienable part of their existence as a religious group.
like legitimately this is why so many of them throw hissy fits whenever there's legislation that separates church and state or extends rights to religious or social minorities that don't line up with them. they believe that they are ontologically oppressed in every situation and therefore start grasping at straws to explain how, even in a society built by and upon their own values and acolytes, they are still the victims. all of a sudden it's "oppression" to have to call someone their chosen name and pronouns or walk past somebody else's house that has a pride flag or not force their students to engage in prayer in a public facility.
"this is just as the bible prophesied! we are being persecuted!" they cry when they are told to please follow science-based health regulations during a pandemic.
"you are trying to silence us, you followers of satan!" they say when they are forbidden from harassing random women outside planned parenthood.
"this is a conspiracy to destroy christian values in the usa!" they proclaim when they are required to accept the presence of visible religious minorities in communal spaces.
if evangelicals cease to be oppressed for their faith, then the entire house of cards that their denomination is built on will collapse. therefore, they must condition themselves to twist any inconvenience to them into oppression, even if they are the ones with the clear advantage in the situation.
#pigeon.txt#ex christian#exvangelical#politics#its not that they just dont know what constitutes real oppression#its that they have to give themselves a different definition than everyone else#in order for them to continue spreading their specific rhetoric

the funny thought of the day is that there's no evidence the real hayner, pence, and olette have ever been to the top of the clocktower before the kh3 ending, so i'm choosing to believe that they think the others are insane for choosing such a dangerous place to hang out
#not in a bad way though#they just have a completely different parameters for what constitutes normal behavior#having lived completely average lives free of monsters and supervillains (until now)#so to them it's like if your fun uncle takes you for a ride on his motorcycle without any safety gear#it's the coolest thing you've ever done#but also you cannot under any circumstances tell anyone about it or you'll never be allowed to hang out with him again

FAMILY TITLES AMONG THE HILL TRIBES
(ft. various linguistic notes and tangents)
In-universe Brakulâs self-given title of âRed-Dogâ is Brakul 'ne-Dainh' in his native language (Bict-Urbinnas dialect of the Highland language group) and Brakul 'Chin-Reyla' in Wardi. Ne-Dainh/Chin-Reyla is not something he treats as or considers an actual surname or identity, just a self-styled nickname. He already has a title.
Family names/surnames are not a native practice among the Hill Tribes (though some clans or individual families have adopted this practice), and all traditionally use titles that designate immediate ancestry, clan and tribe. These full titles are officially given when one comes of age and are spoken aloud in ceremony (with the entire direct male and female lines listed by name, with most traditions expecting 12 generations of each being named).
The function is to cement oneâs sense of place in the world, and their place in a direct ancestral line, which puts the person under the full watch and guidance of their ancestors. It's also a critical method of recording lineage- the long held practice of each person memorizing at least 24 total direct ancestors allows for very long, largely accurate records of family history to be kept, with some people able to trace their ancestry all the way back to initial settlement of the Highlands (or even beyond).
Brakulâs full title is:
âBrakul virsum Kuligan et Borunil an Briyonis ne-Taig an Bict-Urbinnasâ
Which dead literally translates to âBrakul son of Kuligan and Borunil of the Foothills (of) Red-Cattle, of the North (Urbin/Erubin) River Valleyâ but has a much richer meaning in the original language.
"BRAKUL VIRSUM KULIGAN ET BORUNIL"
The actual meaning here is closer to âBrakul, son of Kuligan and his fatherâs fathers, and Borunil and her motherâs mothersâ.
âVirsumâ means âchild (son/daughter) ofâ (the gender is contextual), but implies the personâs status as a descendant of a full male and female line of ancestors. A different word is used if youâre just saying âIâm so and soâs sonâ. The title describes him as a son of his father Kuligan and of Kuliganâs male line, and of his mother Borunil and Borunil's female line.
All ancestors (within this particular system of kinship, divided into one direct male line from the father and one direct female line from the mother, and not including husbands from the female line or wives from the male line) are invoked and credited with the word âvirsumâ. Speaking it as part of the personal title is part of the routine and necessary honoring of oneâs ancestors, who watch over their descendants from the afterlife and can temporarily return to the land to guide and protect (and sometimes punish, or teach sharp lessons to) the living.
"AN BRIYONIS NE-TAIG"
The actual meaning here would be understood as âclan/people of the foothills where cattle are lit red by the setting sun'.
âBriyonisâ is the word for âfoothillâ, citing his clanâs specific location being the foothills that form the slopes of the north Urbin river valley. He is of a lesser clan within the powerful North Urbin River tribe. His clan benefits from close affiliation to their more powerful ruling clans located directly in the river valley, which grants them access to a greater variety of cultivated foods, but their actual position in the foothills still renders them predominantly reliant on cattle for subsistence. Clan names referencing cattle or horses are very common, given their frequent centrality to life.
The âne-Taigâ literally means âred cattleâ, but the âneâ color word for red specifically invokes shades of red seen in and cast by a rising/setting sun. This red cast is culturally regarded as a unique beauty and evocative (and part of the name) of the solar god Hraighne. The foothills his clan is physically located on are a vantage point from which the western horizon is not fully obscured by mountains, and they experience very striking sunsets and are directly touched by the light. This is fairly unique to this location, and is invoked in the clan name and identity. âNe-Taigâ here suggests a visual of grazing cattle illuminated red by the sun as it crosses the horizon.
âNe-Dainhâ carries the same implication, a dog illuminated red by setting sunlight. The Wardi language does not have a comparable word for a sunlit red and âChin-Reylaâ really does just mean â(orangeish) red dogâ (âreylaâ is specific to orangey-red colors, which is the closest match he could get. Thereâs no way to impart the meaning of âsunlit-red dogâ in Wardi that is non-clunky enough to be appropriate for a name).
"AN BICT-URBINNAS"
âan Bict-Urbinnasâ is fairly simple, Bict means ânorthâ, and 'Urbin' is the name of the specific river that stems from a northern and eastern tributary. This river has a very ancient name (or a derivative of one) that predates settlement by the Hill Tribes, and its exact meaning is lost.
The root -(n)nas designates a river valley, but has strong implications of being an esteemed and bountiful place, rather than solely a literal geographical descriptor (as the river valleys are centers of power and trade in the highlands). It may be a loanword from the Wardi language family, as its usage is VERY similar in form and function to the Wardi -(n)nos, which also suggests a place of esteem and bounty (more specifically having connotations of a kingdom).
âAnâ literally means âofâ, but in the specific sense of describing the place and identity of a collection of people. âan Bict Urbinnasâ would be understood in speech as âof the north Urbin River Valley (people)â. The clans historically settled in and around the valley of the North Urbin River form the totality of the Bict-Urbinnas tribe.
The âUrbinâ word predates the contemporary Wardi name âErubinâ for the river, the latter of which invokes the semi-mythological founding figure Erub, who himself was of a Wardi tribe located downriver to the south of the Highlands. The real historically extant âErubâ was most likely named Urub after the river, with his cited name shifting over the centuries in folklore, and the Wardi name for the river shifting with it.
âErubinâ as a corruption of âUrbinâ functions very well in Wardi language due to â-bi/binâ denoting something as a âgiftâ, usually in a more metaphorical sense. âErubinâ is understood as meaning â(The river that is) Erubâs giftâ, and the Erubin/Urbin river is a key tributary to the much larger Black river, one of the key rivers that feeds the region's wetter and more fertile west. This 'gift' meaning also occurs in the name of the southeastern Imperial Wardi city-state Erubinnos, which is understood as meaning â((The kingdom that is) Erubâs giftâ. He is considered to have conquered and taken the land (from the core city's actual founders, the Wogan people) and established a kingdom there in the early days of warring Wardi tribal monarchies.
#Just dropping this randomly because it's a pretty complete lore dump in my notes app#Family names are a big fucking deal in the Wardi cultural sphere and not having one is associated with being a bastard or otherwise#displaced or unwanted. If pressed Brakul either fully lies and says 'ne-Dainh' (which will just come off as 'oh it's some foreign name')#Or lists his actual title (not a family name but equally important). Sometimes listing all 24 generations if he's particularly annoyed.#It's only strictly necessary to memorize 12 ancestors in each line but it's considered good practice to be able#to cite associated non-direct ancestor husbands/wives/siblings/etc. That's where the tattoos as a mnemonic device comes in#It's easy to memorize 24 ancestors but very difficult to memorize 24 ancestors and at least some of their family members#And remembering and honoring the dead by name is of great importance- both puts you under the protection of more#ancestors (including non-direct ones) and ensures the dead's status in the afterlife is secure (it's believed that fully forgotten#dead leave the celestial fields and can no longer directly intercede with the living- though with some additional nuances to what#constitutes being fully forgotten)#Venerating and remembering the dead is a huge focus of cultural practice and additional methods are used to safeguard#ancestors (and other honored dead without descendants) whose names have been forgotten. There's one yearly holiday focused entirely on#the nameless dead where they are invoked and honored via little straw dolls that are burnt in bonfires high in the mountains so the#smoke is sent up to the Fields. It takes weeks of preparation and tens (maybe hundreds idk I'm bad with scale) of thousands of#dolls will be made each year across the Highlands for this purpose. Honoring them with effigy even without name is usually#considered enough to safeguard their afterlife for at least another year.#Also yeah kinship systems among the Hill Tribes (and very similarly among the Finns) follow a male line/female line system#Only father's father's fathers (...) and mother's mother's mothers (...) are considered direct ancestors (though all four grandparents#are sometimes honored as ancestors even if only two are considered DIRECT ancestral kin- this tradition varies)#Inheritance systems are somewhat matrilineal given that a wife is considered the owner and arbiter of property and a husband is#its protector and active manager. If a man and woman from different clans (or tribes) marry any children will be considered to be of#the clan/tribe of whichever spouse does NOT relocate in marriage.#Whether the husband moves in with the wife or the wife moves in with the husband is dependent on an arbitration process#and the husband (and his family) being able to provide a bride price (which is somewhat of a payment for the land/property#the wife's mother will be passing down to the new husband's management should he move in- and displays his ability to care#for and provide valued assets. A man who can provide a bride price tends to receive greater respect)#This is most commonly going to be livestock (and almost ubiquitously includes a single cattle to be butchered for the wedding feast)#But can include other valuables or assets like land or grain/seeds or etc. There is no intra-Highlands monetary system and the internal#economy is built on trade. So Imperial Wardi currency is mostly useless but is sometimes given in marriages between clans with strong

The "Dan Heng is Dan Feng" dogmatics annoy me a lot. It entirely brushes off one of the most interesting and prevalent questions posed by the game, incarnated by several characters and stories that give the question different hues with different potential answers, and a constant also in HI3, like a thread waving the two games together
#The question about what makes a person themselves is super interesting#Is it the memories? Is it personality? Is it body? Is it resemblance? What about narrative reiteration?#Bronya is not Silver Wolf but they're both HI3 Bronya but also they're not#Is March the same person she once was? What about the Trailblazer? Welt looks at Himeko and Silver Wolf and feels like drowning#but he is looking at nothing other than something eerily recognisable#Vidyadhara are reborn anew as if washed clean but Dan Heng's process was skewed. What does it mean to Dan Heng?#He has the body he has the moves he has the stern haughty air he has muddy memories he can't quite recall but something stays#Is he or is he not the same? Where does one end and the other start? Where do they overlap?#Does how others regard him influence whether he is or isn't Dan Feng?#Does the memories of others weight more than your own memories and will?#What does constitute a person? How is selfhood constructed? What are the ontological implications of all this?#If you respond to these questions one way in one context when it comes to one characterâ can you confidently reply the same thing#in a different context for a different character? If notâ why? What does it say?#It's not a straight up answer. The question is what's interesting and it's what makes Dan Heng's story interesting#Seeing it dogmatically negated mainly for the purpose of a ship annoys me a lot#It is a constant in HSR but it's even more clear after playing HI3. This problematic about what constitute identify and selfhood#and whether or not they're the same thing is a constant there too. With Kianaâ with Ottoâ with Kevinâ with Fu Huaâ with the simulations#of the Flame Chasers most notably with Mobius but in general with the continuation of their goals and feelingsâ Klein as human and as ELFâ#the iteration of consciences of the Herrschersâ the puppets of the Herrscher of Dominationâ the influence of the Herrscher of Corruptionâ#the many times characters are found in different universes being slightly different yet recognisableâ the amount of times characters seem#to reiterate existences in different erasâ echoing past selves with past faces yet differentâ...#And usually it's not easy to respond to all of them with the same answerâ which only opens more questions. It's extremely interesting#and it's obviously a topic Honkai as a game cares about a lot. But no. Nothing matters. Dan Heng *is* Dan Feng yes or yes no questions asked#No problematic. No questioning. No doubts. All usually because of a ship. That the drive. I don't know... I'm all for shipping#but I quite dislike when shipping gets so out of hand it crushes and brushes off good writing or core motifs in a text. It's... shabby#And it saddens me haha. Why do you even care about these characters and their dynamic if you're erasing core traits of them as characters?#Abfkabdkkd anyway...#I talk too much#I should probably delete this later#But I had to vent a little. It annoys me a lot this kind of approach to analysis what can I say

i want to understand: why ship tad and peanut?
I've been gathering my thoughts on this topic for such a long time because I have so so many but its so hard to articulate them sometimes. THEY ARE SO NEAR AND DEAR TO MY HEART YOUR HONOUR MY ANGSTY SONS
More under the cut cause it's gonna be a whole lot of words
For starters, I just enjoy the enemies to lovers trope in general. I think seeing someone else's flaws to the point of considering them annemesis and still managing to move past that and fall in love with them down the line is very poetic. Having to battle through hate, one of the most misguided and complex emotion one can feel towards other people and coming out victorious, conquering the concept you have of someone and replacing it with an image so dissimilar to how you perceived them before... I get a lil kick out of it. It takes incredible maturity and willingness to cooperate on both sides of the relationship to move past hard feelings, to find common ground and build something substantial and amiable on that very ground. The former enemies actively heal and grow as people alongside one another, it's a very beautiful concept.
HATE AND LOVE ARE NOT TWO SIDES OF A SPECTRUM!! They're standing next to each other, separated only by a thin sheet of paper which is so easy to rip through once you move past the issues which divide you.
For Tad and Peanut, the obvious and unavoidable source of conflict is their allegiance to their respective cliques. The Preps and Greasers are supposed to despise one another out of principle which they very much do. Consequently, as of the events of the game, neither have any possibility to openly display their many compatible characteristics around one another. Hence why the animosity festers.
When I talk about the many compatible characteristics of Tad and Peanut I mean MANY. SO MANY. You might notice I did not say similar as I don't find they are carbon copies of one another, their lives are very different, however, their very cores slot with each other perfectly. It all falls into place.
Peanut, as I'm sure everyone already knows, has a painfully and one-sidedly dependent relationship with Johnny who is assumed to have saved him in some way, judging by the contents of his character quotes. He's fiercely loyal to his leader to the point where it's overwhelming and he actively fears disappointing Johnny in any capacity (not aided by the fact that he's implied to have feelings for Lola). Not to mention, as a second in command, he's got big shoes to fill, shoes he doesn't deem himself good enough to fill. Though he seems content with being trapped in Johnny's shadow he does show a sense of longing for freedom and a deep self-consciousness about his abilities.
Tad on the other hand is not second in command, quite the opposite, he's at a disadvantageous position in his clique with his newcomer status. Yet the expectations he has to meet at the forceful request of his father are just as if not more ambitious than Peanut's. With how prominently Mr Spencer's abuse towards his son altered his character and mindset, Tad is thus trapped in the role of the usurper, exactly what he feels (and knows) his clique-mates see him as. His opinion of the topic is largely apathetic though the apathy seems forced and learned.
His destiny as his father's extension has been set in stone, as has Peanut's servitude to Johnny. Neither feel they can do anything about it.
Both deem themselves worthless and void of purpose when they are not of use, not going along with whatever demands have been put onto them. They convince themselves (Peanut moreso than Tad) that their prison is a comfortable one, that the end goal of their struggle will be satisfactory yet know deep down all they want is freedom.
In this way they are very compatible, enough that they see a bit of themselves in the other which is part of the reason their bad blood runs so deep, especially on Tad's part. They see the collars hanging heavy around their necks and tug on them in hopes the other won't notice the perpetrator's own. It's easier to depersonalize yourself from your own issues than to face them head on.
I can definitely see them snapping on one eventful occasion - a supernova of unspoken emotions ready to surface - their reconciliation would not be a serene, drawn out ordeal of slow acquiescence. They fire each other up to the point of accidentally creating a spark which leads to a flame. A common flame between them in whose glow and light they can finally see each other's true colours, which will not burn them like it usually does but rather provide warmth, much needed after the long years spent in their cold, oppressive jail cells.
They would be like two dogs chained to a tree and left for dead tasting food again and rediscovering the comfort of a plush pillow - striving to maintain the warmth of mutual understanding conceived on that very day and would no doubt cultivate it to the best of their inexperienced ability. They both know by then the other is a novice in terms of... well, everything when it comes to being appreciated.
They rediscover love together and that's why I think they are so very beautiful and compatible as a pair!!
THAT'S IT... UM SORRY FOR RAMBLING AND THIS BEING MUSHY AS ALL HELL THEY JUST MAKE ME SOB AND WISH FOR THEM TO HAVE A BETTER LIFE. THE POTENTIAL IN THEIR RELATIONSHIP IS IMMENSE AND I WILL NOT BE SILENCED ABOUT IT. THEY CAN HEAL EACH OTHER LIKE NOONE ELSE CAN!!!

can anyone who even remotely gives a shit about letterboxd and/or using/seeing custom posters please upvote my suggestion on their feedback forum?
apparently tmdb (where letterboxd hosts their posters from) is cracking down on "fan art" which even includes posters that are simply changed to black and white or have a different text color, even if everything else is the same.
i, and a lot of other people, put a lot of time and effort in to customizing our lists. this is why i pay to be a patron on letterboxd. unless they decide to host somewhere else or make it so you can upload a custom poster right to letterboxd, i literally don't see a point in paying for it anymore.
pictures for example (and follow me here if you want to):
literally none of these posters are the originals. every single one is custom. i didn't make all of them, but i have made well over 300 and have spent hours doing so. i understand that this might not be important to everyone, but like. can i please have a little joy in my life?
anyway, moral of the story: please upvote my suggestion here.
#letterboxd#ramblings#im legitimately upset about this#tmdb literally suspended my account even though i had no idea i was doing a Bad Thing#like i guess i get not allowing fanmade works but how does making a poster#black and white and pink constitute fanart??#im not changing any of the details or uploading a totally different poster#IM MAD OKAY

In Spain do you take both you mother and fathers last name cause I love MotoGP and follow Marc Marquez and his full name is Marc Marquez Alenta so I assumed heâs got both his parents last names and Iâve seen it with other Spanish athletes, and if you have kids does the fathers or mothers last name get past on?
Yes! Everybody in Spain has two surnames (myself included hehe), because we get both our fatherâs first surname and our motherâs first surname. Itâs important to note that Spanish women donât take and historically have never taken their husbandâs surname when they marry, they simply keep the two surnames they were given at birth. So in the end both parents maintain two sets of completely different surnames, and the kid gets the first from each set. As to which goes first, the fatherâs or the motherâs, itâs up to the parents to decide; though traditionally itâs usually the fatherâs that is put first. So, in Marcâs case, his surnames are MĂĄrquez i AlentĂ because his fatherâs first surname is MĂĄrquez, and his motherâs first surname is AlentĂ , and he inherited both.
This is also why Mr. F1 driver Carlos Sainz VĂĄsquez de Castro Cenamor RincĂłn Rebollo Virto Moreno de Aranda Don Per Urrielagoira PĂŠrez del Pulgar has so many surnames. Itâs because you can simply follow the thread of your fatherâs second surname, then your motherâs second surname, then your paternal grandfatherâs first surname, then your maternal grandmotherâs first surname, then your paternal grandfather⌠all the way until you run out of family records, essentially. Even I end up with like 7 surnames if I start counting back đ.
Hope this clarified it!
#a talks#ask#welcome to the wonderful world of Spanish surnames#theyâre a very complicated affair especially when you start bringing compound surnames into it#VĂĄzquez de Castro is a compound surname meaning that itâs made up of 3 different words but it constitutes a single surname#isnât that fun?#marc marquez#carlos sainz

(I will be hiding politics from now until I get back from Portugal but I am so sad. So sad for all of the people will be harmed, so sad for all of the people who are so filled with hate, so sad for all of the people who are too dumb, brain washed or abused to have voted for hate, and so so so sad for all of those who worked so hard to make things better for it to come to this. But I know there are many many people who will continue to work hard to make things and I am taking solace in that and looking to be a more active part of it)
#but also shout out to Colorado for putting abortion and gay rights in the constitution#little bright spots#and now to hide in my vacation#and also celebrate the international joy that is traveling and experiencing different cultures#nothing to appreciate the beauty of the diversity of the world quite like seeing more of it

ok this isnt meant to be a dig or anything but it's always really funny to me when people like just cracking 30 are like "omg you're in your early twenties, you're a babyyyyyy"
babe you're like barely 30, you're a baby too. You're a blink and a half older than me. I spend too much time around people over 50, the difference between 23 and 33 is a few years at a job and a little more distance from living in your parents' house but it's like, nothing. the gap closes every time you breathe and every time i move. the difference between you and me is like one-fifteenth the difference between you and my dad's friend Joe or whatever. don't worry you'll get to live more life too, but don't kid yourself.
and this is doubled when it's coming from a 25-year-old currently experiencing a crisis of age because they're soooo old, they're 25, the horror! You are twenty-five. We have an age difference of three years. Your concern over this is embarrassing for you and highly entertaining for me. But like don't kid yourself here. You are 25. You are a like a fucking baby to me.
#red rambles#when i was 18 all my friends were grad students#i think my youngest close "peer'' friend was 27#when i was 19 it was covid and almost all my friends were distant people i knew online and then the age gap between me and my oldest friend#got even wider!#when i was 20 i stayed with my grandma for several months and i'm still friends with a bunch of her friends! i got a standing invitation to#a neighbor's house to shoot the shit with her and she's like 55 and she's the youngest of the people in my grandma's social circle i'm all#buddy-buddy with!#i was learning new knitting tecniques from someone in her late 80s!#You are like a little baby to me watch this [hits on a man around three times my age] [hits on a woman almost three times my age] i'd say#im hitting on enbies 3x my age here but i actually haven't met any out enbies that old yet. i think the youngest nonbinary person i know is#their forties and that's just 2x#wait no. i do know someone. but i haven't hit on them. not gonna steal valor LOL#if ur a cool recently-retired californian i cannot recommend coming to [city removed] to come get hit on by a 23 year old nonbinary tboy#but i wouldn't say it's off the table LOLLL#anyway.#point made i believe.#i'm sure i'll hit the Age Crisis one of these days and start being like omg... you're so *young* because you are so Small Number...#but the one i run into is just Omg...
