#Franky rant

[thatsmyjamjam]

Napping Together:

Lying on someone is personal and I don't think Robin does personal without meaning to. You never see Sanji in her lap and we know he begs.

Franky is sleeping comfortably in her lap! I love the little sleep bubble. Look how comfortable he looks, even when being detained by an enemy. I also think he did so to protect her because they'd have to disturb him to get to her, which is cute, because she's more dangerous.

This is prior to being captured. Before they get knocked out, Frnaky presumably grabs Robin to stop her from hitting the ground, cradling her with his body. It shows him doing so in the anime. They are a couple, but Oda doesn't want to have couples in the main crew or focus on romance---but his first chapter is called Romance Dawn. And yes, I know he means the romance of adventure but come on.

OP Polaroid, plus the vers with Luffy’s helpful annotations 💖

I finally got up to date with the anime, and watched the fan letter!! Can confirm it changed my whole world perspective and made me want to live a life worth living again 🎉

Wow I love how Paget Brewster plays all her characters (hot) (autistic) (lesbian)

[strawberryraviegutz]

Aaand we already have someone who made art that is making fun of others who simp for Frankie in the Finding Frankie tags… from what I can tell it’s pretty clear that all 3 frankies are obviously adults so what is yall’s problem???

Ppl like you are the reason why cringe culture will never go away and why selfshippers are continuously bullied/harassed to all hell. For goodness sake we’re not hurting anyone by simping for and or falling in love with fictional characters PLEASE LEAVE US ALONE.

EVERY SINGLE ONE

[raconabhorrent]

been fascinated with Finding Frankie today and while I definitely think there's a lot to praise about the game and the story and the characters,, i'm also hella confused as to WHY (not what) things in the story were happening...

not saying it needs like HELLA lore like Poppy Playtime or an ARG like Amanda the Adventurer or smth but even if u think about the story of the game as completely self-contained (as in, it has no effect on the universe it resides within),, some of the things that happen happen for no reason other than they were written that way??? which, again,, isn't a bad thing,, but i'd def like to see some of the plot threads introduced in the game developed more if they do end up making sequels...

!!! SPOILERS AHEAD !!!

things like,, why are there two frankies??? why is one evil (capitalism) and the other one just tries to stomp on you?? why are the mascots sentient or whatever??? were they built like that??? do they have human something inside them (human organs, human soul, etc.) or are they just inanimate objects that have their own consciousnesses of some kind????

who started the game show? who's running it? who created the mascots? who are the people watching the streams? does the government know or is this like squid games? how have they not gone bankrupt previously? how have the police not been notified BEFORE of hundreds of people dying before you arrive?

what is the player's motivation for being a contestant? it seems like your character tried really hard to get that vhs tape... why does frankie get mad at you for "ruining his fucking gameshow" and then turn around when you somehow survive falling into the incinerator (which,, what??? did you use the grindrails?? is that even the player???) and be like "omg let's be business partners buddy"???

how parkour physics work?? (i can suspend my disbelief on this one the most, honestly),, HOW IS THIS FACILITY RUNNING??? IS FRANKIE RUNNING THE WHOLE THING??? are there humans behind the whole operation that you're not seeing?? who called the polices???? why do they never bring that up again??? WHAT IS A NOOB NOOB?!?!??!1 why do they explode why do they do a little dance when ur chasing them why do they have blood inside them i'm assuming its blood cus all the supposed blood in this game is black is it dried?? is it old blood??? is it stylized?? is it ichor of some kind??? what??

maybe my tendency to overthink is getting carried away here,, probably,, but i def want to understand more about this setting bc there's so much that can be done with it, even if it's explained away with silly cartoon logic or something.

Okay, it's late where I am, and I should be asleep, but instead, I'm posting this, with a tired brain, because my brain won't let me sleep, til I make this, so I'm sorry, I'm warning it's a long post.... Read if you want to go insane.

Anyways-

WHY THE HECK, DID I THINK OTHER FRANKIE COULD BREAK HIS CHAIR???

I was like, "oh haha! He is too big for his chair! Just look at him vs the baby chair!"

But then I realized-

I HAVE THE CHAIR AND I KNOW ITS WRONG!!!

Proof, this is my chair:

For the reasoning why I have it, the answer is, this was my chair from when I was 5 years old. I'm a kleptomaniac and so I kept it for I think 16 to 17 year, maybe more? (I can't do math right now-) either or, I have kept it... BECAUSE IT CANT BREAK!!!

I swear, this chair is so indestructible, I have used it as a stool, I have had really heavy stuff on it cuz I needed a surface, I have thrown stuff at it and it at things and both ways, the item was more damaged, then this bloody chair.

These chairs are so just-

There is no way, Other Frankie could break this chair, he could throw it into the incinerator and it would probs come out fine!!!

SO! For anyone else who thought like me, and was like, oh yeah, that chair would break because its so small and he is a giant robot, no he wouldn't, that chair would kill him before he destroyed it.

----

So now art idea for me later.... Lucky beating Other Frankie up with one of these chairs.

Yay....

My Little Pony and Friends

What if instead of Gen 5 being about different kinds of ponies getting along and making the society of Gen 4 feels regressive by proxy, it was about Sunny having to make friends and peace with NON unicorns, earth or pegasus ponies?

What if Gen 5 was a soft revitalizing of the gen 1 "My Little Pony friends" line and also a send up of Gen 4's pony-only privilege problems? Guardians of Harmony and the dedication FiM's child and adult fanbases should be proof enough that non-pony characters have pull.

Also I redrew it with the Gen 4 style cuz I like Gen 4's style fine and Gen 5's is legit hard to look at. Seriously Gen 5's writing is okay but it's art is like if Hasbro took all the worst aspects of MLP redesigns and said "yes use them all. Especially the overcomplicated colors and human-ponie faces".

i shouldn't have looked this up.

so... in the 2d animator of finding frankie post. A comment said there was rule34 of finding frankie already created. So i looked it up just to see it was real, and now my eyes are scared for life. Like understand, I like simp for cartoon frankie but i don't make rule34 of him because I think the 2d animator is not comfortable having her character that she animated for a horror game being rule34.(so im going to show a cropped picture of it because I don't want to show the whole thing)

(So my opinion on this. He is mighty fine and the contestant would be me rn in a nutshell, it just feels wrong liking a rule34 of a character, that it's creator didn't want this to happen.) F in the chat for the 2D animator and the creator of finding frankie. I feel bad for them.

(Also im 18 so i can look up 18+ like stuff. Sometimes when i feel like it)

G2 hot take

Alivia Stein was kind of a brilliant concept and kind of a good doll despite the "new younger siblings" thing being insulting overall and G2 being G2.

Alivia's name is literally "Olivia"+"IT'S ALIVE!"

She looks exactly like a miniature Frankie face-wise, suggesting she was built with the same plans as her sister, adapted for a smaller size.

Her eyes are the same colors as Frankie's, but the opposite, as if the missing matches to Frankie's two eyes were found and repurposed.

She had molded head bolts. I always like a Frankenmonster with head bolts. Plus she had a forehead scar and molded stitching, which sure, isn't colored, but is monster detail with spooky edge!

Imagine how relived the straw hats must be once they’re on the crew.

Each straw hat struggled before joining (Nami with arlong, Franky with Tom’s death, Robin with … everything). They didn’t have enough of the necessities (love, food, money, safety) but then they become a straw hat and they don’t have to ration anything.

Nami is free to save and spend money as she pleases. Robin is finally able to relax and enjoy life. Franky is wholly welcomed somewhere.

something that stuck out to me during several straw hats backstories was that they didn’t have enough to eat. They’re likely malnourished and underweight.

So imagine how reliving it is to have a cook who not only makes feasts everyday, but goes out of his way to make sure everything is suited to personal taste. Robin and Nami get deserts and coffee and tea whenever they want it.

They have a surplus, and that must be so fucking comforting.

really don't know why endos are trying to take syspunk/systempunk/etc. and then losing their shit when they find anti endo content like

you guys have pluralpunk, GO THERE!!!!

you say you're plural, but you don't have DID/OSDD? great!!! SO YOU'RE NOT A SYSTEM, and therefore, you need to STOP TAKING TERMS FROM SYSTEMS AND TRANS PEOPLE!!!!!! MAKE YOUR OWN TERMS AND STOP STEALING FROM PROGRAMMED SYSTEMS!!!

"but anti endos are invading their spaces!!" tags like #did system and #osddid? oh, totally. how dare we steal the spaces that were originally ours in the first place! I am so so so sorry, I'll give everything to you my dear royal ruler (can you feel my sarcasm. I feel like it's oozing from my pores atp)

"hating on endos is not punk" stop stealing terms from a minority that's actively being targeted by law by methods such as murder (trans people), stop telling systems they're lucky to have been abused/trafficked/etc., stop appropriating a ritual from a culture that isn't yours, stop invading spaces that have never been yours, stop telling people to kill themselves for existing, and THEN we'll talk

I'll be aware, I know some anti endos genuinely go out to attack endos, but that is a very small %. The only reason there's so much accounts that express they're anti endo and multiple tags that are basically "endos fuck off" is because you keep invading OUR spaces and attacking US, you big fucking baby

If you don't want to get mauled to death, then don't tread on wolf territory, easy as that.

I'm definitely making this too long and rant-y but holy shit, y'all, come on.

I've not posted much when it comes to my feelings/critique of Rings of Power (because the discourse there is a toxic hellscape that I have not wanted to touch with a 10 foot pole), but I've come away from the final episode so frustrated that I can't help saying one thing.

In trying to be clever with their "references," what the showrunners have ended up doing instead is taking the narrative power away from several of LoTR's key moments so that when those instances show up in the "later" trilogy, they are shorn of their meaning and arrive instead as hollow echoes of what RoP is putting forward as their original instances.

This is most clearly seen in Season 1 when Galadriel's pivotal moment in Fellowship of the Ring is taken from her, placed in a man's mouth first, and consequently shifts the entirety of her narrative arc/test to be about her relationship/temptation by this specific person instead of being the full fruition of what brought her to Middle-earth in the First Age. Her test (as noted in the Shibboleth of Fëanor, found in HoME volume 12: The Peoples of Middle-earth) is the rejection of "all that she had desired in her youth," which is specifically tied to her involvement in the rebellion of the Noldor and subsequent rejection of the Valar's pardon.

If Galadriel's test is thus reframed to be primarily about refusing the power Sauron offers, then she does that here in the Second Age (per their depiction) and this scene thereby makes her choice at the Mirror irrelevant because it turns it into a test she had already passed. (The irony here is that so many bad faith critiques were that the show made Galadriel too independent & fighter-y when in fact they took all of her independence and cut the knees right out from under it by making her entire story about Sauron instead of its own complicated arc. But I digress.)

In Season 2, we receive an additional host of these attempted referential echoes, but I will focus on one in particular because it operates in exactly the same way that Galadriel's Season 1 scene does. It is once again the final episode, once again a character whose journey we have followed through the whole season (throughout both seasons, in fact), and once again it is taking a key moment in the LoTR narrative and shifting it to be instead something that has already happened in the Second Age - specifically, the scene with the Stranger (now disappointingly officially identified as Gandalf) and "the Dark Wizard". This effectively lifts Gandalf's refusal of Saruman's offer in FoTR and places that exact temptation (join me and together we can weild the power that Sauron has) centuries earlier so that when he is faced with it at Isengard in the Third Age, Gandalf is merely repeating his earlier decision and facing nothing but an echo of a temptation he has already mastered.

These characters are now caught in a Groundhog's Day of their defining moments, repeated ad nauseam till it is reflex and not conviction.

In attempting to construct resonance and connection between the two narratives, what RoP has done instead is shore up a hall of empty mirrors, each reflecting back upon itself to the point where the origin becomes meaningless and the beauty of its narrative power is lost.

[strawberryraviegutz]

Ngl getting rlly annoyed at ppl using “tumblr sexyman” and “hazbin hotel character design” as insults when referring to the character designs, along with seeing someone getting genuinely upset at ppl for drawing Henry how he is depicted in the cartoony versions of him we see throughout the game instead of his irl self(even tho I’ve seen art of both versions)…

Yall really aren’t against cringe culture despite claiming to be when you’re acting like this.
