how i feel when the "i shouldn't ask father to do anything because of us" "it's unfortunate that lyney's so eager to prove himself that he can't learn to rely on others... including me" hits

Mizuki and Date though like. Imagine being 8 and your parents are filthy rich and going through a bad divorce. Your mom treats you like shit, lashing out at you, hitting you, saying she wishes you were never born all because you were behaving like a child. Your dad is more comforting, but he doesn’t do anything to stop the abuse and he spends his time invested in a completely different family, a girl who you love and look up to but he loves her more than you and it fucking shows. Then your dads new friend, some fucking bachelor in his late 20s, is just like "wow you guys are the worst fucking parents ive ever seen" and next thing you know your dad is sending you off to live with him. And it’s just a massive kick in the head cuz you go from a rich lifestyle to living in some really shitty tiny ass apartment with this guy who’s clearly never been around a child in his entire life and he doesn’t know how to behave and does a really bad job of censoring himself like he has a bunch of dirty magazines that he can’t hide very well cuz it’s literally a studio apartment and also he talks to himself sometimes, it’s really weird. He doesn’t even have the slightest clue what he’s doing

And he’s the best parent you’ve ever had

Because fuck, it all really hurts. You have to cope with having never received any love from anyone, and with the fact that your parents clearly don’t want you and can’t even be bothered to send you with anyone even kinda responsible. And this guy has a scary job with crazy hours and you don’t know anything about him and neither does he. But still, he never once hits you or tells you you’re not allowed to cry. He just gives you space and doesn’t push you to feel any sort of way about him. And sometimes, he’s even kind. He makes you some stew, even though it’s a bit chunky. He lets you sleep in the bed and takes the couch for himself, even though he complains about the massive back pain he’d never trade his spot for a second. He pays attention to events at your school and gives you your favorite stuffed animal when you make good grades, even though you called it ugly. He gets worried sick when you come home with bruises and puts on a goofy voice and trains you to defend yourself and you develop some highly deadly skills and even though it’s really abnormal, he buys you a bench press so you can get stronger. There’s this distance there, and you feel really weird caring about someone who you aren’t related to, but you find yourself wishing it was meant to be like this all along, that maybe, he’s secretly your real dad and he loves you like his real daughter

And when you say "I’m back" he says "welcome home"

So is the world ready for my X-Men hot take?

Scott/Jean/Logan is extremely good, 100/10

You know what’s better though? In my humble opinion?

Scott/Jean/Logan/Emma

Give them their “problematic but secretly extremely well meaning in a lot of situations” bisexual wife!!! Someone in that polycule has to be able to handle delicate morally gray situations!!! Also plz Emma and Jean are peak “if you’re rivals for over 30 years you are no longer rivals you are gay!”

Fuck all the love triangle/love square bullshit, wrong!!! They all kiss!!!!

Looking up something on the FF wiki and ah yes Tifa's Fenrir ring, very cool very--

I've started playing Potion Permit, and so far it's one of my favorite games I've messed around with, but the most big brained move the devs made was giving you a dog on day 1, and then making that dog able to track NPCs and lead you directly to them no matter where they are in the town.

Somehow the idea of Curze whispering poison in his sister's ear repulsed Perturabo most of all.

My brain just hit an old hyperfixation (is this what it's called? I hope I used the word right) and oh dear am I losing my mind now. I need to write a story I think. About this one old guy. He's unhinged. There's so much information about him and yet not enough. I want to explore his character so much. He's definitely a criminal - at least he was one - and I'm 95% sure he can do actual real magic, and he's a musician and an artist and an actor and a magician and a philosopher and a traveler and a conman and so much more and also I think he's some kind of immortal. Maybe he just has a VERY long life. It's strongly implied he was a pirate at some point of his life. He started a cult by accident several times. My conspiracy theories about him include him being a secret god.

He's also a freaking round blue raven. Someone save me from my mind.

One of the greatest things in life is finding out a man you don't personally know but you like (be it a celebrity or a fictional character) is, among other things, good with kids

Because kids are literally our future and they need to be protected and cared for and loved and everything and are you really a human being if you don't care about them

Considering you're clearly conflating antizionism with antisemitism I wouldn't be so quick to flex your ability to read, BUT, as you astutely point out, my post history is indeed available so I welcome anyone to show the receipts of a single instance of me being actually antisemitic.

guys, guys, guys, don't you love shaking around your little guy in your head so hard all day you probably got brain damage, but at least now you have a thousand new plots for them to follow

Tired Reader,

I write this in honor of the season, and to remind you of some christmas etiquette.

Firstly, for children, yes Santa is real. No, you shall not catch him, to even attempt such matters lowers your place on the nice list, and it would be truly pitiful to miss such holiday joy as possible because you wished to achieve the truly impossible. Were you to succeed in staying awake the entire night tonight, watching, he would either visit while you were otherwise occupied in the restroom, or not come at all, a truly sad state of affairs.

This in mind, go now and prepare for his arrival, making any arrangements necessary. Bake cookies, prepare milk, assist your parents in last minute holiday shopping, make bows to go on gifts, busy yourself in whatever must needs happen next. Go now, and do this.

Are they gone?

Good.

Parents, uncles, aunts, and those lonely on Christmas Eve. A few rules for you to follow, lest you end on MY hit list.

You shall not ruin this festive time for any of the young ones in your sphere of influence. This does not mean you must get them large, expensive gifts. Such things are oft a bother and usually not worth the cost of purchase.

You WILL however, keep the spirit of the season in your heart, even if it is not something you personally celebrate. That is, a feeling of generosity and kindness towards your fellow man. Yes, I am aware they do not deserve it. Neither do you. Do it regardless or taste my blade.

I would wish you all a marry Christmas here, but it is not yet that time. Almost Christmas means it isn't Christmas, as a wise man once stated. That in mind, goodnight.

-Simon Blackquill

my sister got engaged and we’re all really happy for her but my bitter rain cloud of a dad (who naturally she told last) is giving her a bit of passive aggressive grief about it despite her boyfriend being like the best man of our generation (presumably either because he’s not catholic or because my dad sees them as young dumb unemployed people who aren’t ready for marriage or because he’s mad he barely has any real love with his own wife or something). so like pray for us? i wish i knew what to do

"Bruce loves his children to infinity but sucks at communication" gotta be one of my favourite tropes.

What Bruce means: I miss you so much it hurts, you are a great hero, and I'm really glad that you still consider me as part of your life and share your thoughts with me.

What Bruce does: hums meaningfully in response to Dick's story.

What Bruce means: I'm sorry about everything that happened between us, I still love you and want to fix our relationship, I'm incredibly grateful that you don't avoid me.

What Bruce does: nods at Jason when sees him on the patrol.

What Bruce means: I deeply care about you, you are truly important to me, I worry about your health and I don't want you to repeat my mistakes, neglecting yourself for the sake of a mission.

What Bruce does: gives Tim a snack without any explanation.

What Bruce means: I'm very proud that, despite everything you were taught, you choose to be a good person and help people, you have a kind soul, and it's an honour to me to call you my son.

What Bruce does: gives Damian an intensive head pat.

Should I say that Cassie is a blessing?

They stare at each other's soul for a solid five minutes and it's basically a full ass conversation.
