I'm curious, in general do we prefer Poison Ivy with Green Skin or Nah?
oh reblog for more responses please lol
#poison ivy#poison ivy dc#dc polls#tumblr polls#polls#dc poison ivy#dc#dc comics#also I find it more interesting when Poison Ivy is very biologically plant#I think I prefer her with green skin I think partially because I like her more plant than human#but also because design-wise I love her red hair as the pop of color contrasting the green#a white ivy can be good tho to break up the green and making the design more visually clear#also I like when she is very plant and like needs sunlight and water and dirt not food lol#(but also she should still have human emotions)#I love Poison Ivy#I love love Ivy#Oh and I really don't like when she's a ginger (orange hair) her hair needs to be bright red#to me her core character traits are 1. her overwhelming and intense love for plants and the environment#2. her care for people (usually restricted to Harley but never underestimate Ivy's motherly instincts)#this trait is usually where the conflict with her character lays#3. her sex appeal this was originally her only trait I'm a gay man so I have less to say about it but I do love her femininity and slay lol#4. probably least important her evilness which is best when it's motivated by one of her other traits I like w#if its not clear I love Poison Ivy and I just put an entire other post in the tags lol#I like when she has cool lesbian aunt vibes#but I also like when she has unhinged plant lady vibes#pamela isley

The more comics I read the more I’m confused about people absolutely lothingggg Guy Gardner… like he’s a little bit of an asshole, but what seems to annoy people the most is how impulsive and annoying he is… Do they not see that he acts “too quickly” and with “too much anger” because in his eyes they are taking too long to figure out a plan of attack and people could die? Also, damn, some of the shit he does is just COMMON for green lanterns, but the moment he does it, it’s “wrong”.
“He doesn’t think about-” HE HAS SEVERE BRAIN DAMAGE!!! PARTS OF HIS BRAIN WILL NEVER GROW BACK POST COMA AND POST ANY OTHER HEAD TRAUMA!!! He is gonna be bad at considering consequences…
Also, if we are gonna hate on him for misogyny that he USED to have, where is the hate for Ted Kord? That’s right, it’s non existent.
Not to mention a lot of the hate I see is straight up MADE UP SHIT… like bruh…
I get he can be annoying, but sometimes… girl, calm down…
#it is clear that yall don’t see annoying friends as a love language#like when he was working with Scott Free on going through spaceship parts#he was annoying him yes but it was his way of joking around and giving attention#I have had friends like this. it’s really fun if you know they actually just really care about you and#if they have a serious voice that they use in case they actually hurt you#(we threw each other’s phones in the trash and had to go dig them out. rinse them off with the water fountain.)#(it was the school cafeteria trash)#very fond memory of mine even though… that person was actually as asshole and experienced no character development#dc comics#guy gardner

I certainly have my own concerns about the treatment of moo deng but um. well i think some of you may just be racist
#this ^ isn't directed at any post in particular but instead a lot of comments ive seen. but now im gonna talk about other posts down here#and prefacing anything i put in the tags here with DONT TAKE MY WORD FOR IT DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH#but the biggest post ive seen going around rn about moo deng being mistreated and the general quality of khao kheow zoo is questionable#claims that the enclosure is mostly concrete seem to be false from all the sources i can find#the concrete section looks like its specifically around the feeding area which fits zoo care guidelines which specify that the feeding area#be a surface that can be easily cleaned separate from the substrate and is a surface present in other zoos#the lack of deep water also seems to be purposeful? older videos of the same enclosure show deeper water areas#and looking back through the news every baby pygmy hippo announcement from every zoo i could find mentioned periods where the baby had to#learn to swim and was slowly introduced from shallow water to deeper water as time passed#this was also corroborated by fowlers zoo and wild animal medicine volume 8 which suggests keeping the mother dry and then slowly#introducing water as the baby grows as a potential best practice#damn im treating this like a paper now. anyway the negatives#there are absolutely things that strike me as bad eg. public access to the hippos and the way the keeper interacts with them#for the keeper stuff in particular i'd really like to see input from someone who has experience as a zookeeper with pygmy hippos#the public access is something that i def think the zoo could improve on and even older footage from years ago shows people sticking like#selfie sticks and shit off the side of the railings and right into the hippos faces#however again the zoo seems to be making efforts to curb visitor behavior which is tough when you go from having 800 visitors a day to#4000+ and you can't remodel the whole exhibit right then and there#all this to say! just do your own research and take somewhat inflammatory comments on the internet with a grain of salt#also just to make it clear im not making any sweeping statements on khao kheow or the treatment of moo deng im just summarizing what i foun#based on what's being said in the most popular post on the subject ive seen.#for the potential like three people who will read all this hi :) hope ur having a nice day

generally i'm still pretty anti-singing live for movie musicals just bc filming schedules are generally so gruelling that even pro theatre performers would find it grueling however. the stark difference in quality between les mis and wicked actually so insane.
#a lot of it comes down to the post-production and a LOT more vocal production was done for wicked. however at the end of the day cynthia and#ari are just house down pros whereas the main cast for les mis was. vocally speaking. not#and ik hugh jackman has a huge theatre resume. however him saying he didn't drink water for 36 hours so he'd look emaciated just shows a#clear lack of understanding of the vocal mechanism and imo a lack of care abt the sound#maybe he was going for a more emaciated sound but that's not the point.#like the only people who sound good in the les mis movie are the barricade boys and sam barks#but even then i didn't even like her on my own that much. but that's not on her as much as the multiple hours of shooting in the rain while#singing live. like no wonder she mix belted instead of full belting the woman was exhausted. but it just loses its power and makes her seem#defeated when she's really quite angry. and i've HEARD her full belt the climax of it and it's so much more moving. idk#les mis movie they'll never make me glad it was sung live

Since my OdyPen are likeminded in personality/views/behavior in many many ways, those "Ship meme questions" are pretty interesting for me.
Because yeah. Likeminded. Many of those questions have the same answer from both.
And in a way that's super fun for me because everything I write with my goobers, I always try to keep in mind that, at least in behavioral/personality, they would both react/behave the same.
Like, I know I focus a shitton on Penelope as I adore her and love exploring her character so so much but understand that Odysseus would do the exact same shit. Just as Odysseus in my one fic is taking care of her as she is sick from her own recklessness, she would (and will. Different circumstances but you know) do the same for him.
It's actually super fun (as much as it is frustrating too. I'll realize partway through an idea that it's actually OOC and that I got too excited lol) to keep in mind while writing/creating. It keeps me on track :3
#I'm just really gung-ho about Penelope and showing who SHE is and giving her HER time to shine#*whispers* someone has to#WHO SAID THAT?!ヽ((◎д◎))ゝ#Also like so many fics with m/f ships have the woman taking care of the man and while those are fun. idk. I like switching things up#and I wanted a reason for her not to be outside with him for some reason. as she usually would be with him to check on things.#I had to nerf my wife 。:゚(;´∩`;)゚:。I'M SO SORRY SWEETIE#I also really wanted to hit home that my Pen's a LOT lol#Mad rambles#shot by odysseus#my headcanons#I guess??? this ain't a headcanon. I'm just rambling as it makes me happy.#penelope#penelope of ithaca#odysseus#odyssey#lol I don't care if people don't like my silly :3 I like my silly#odypen#Water Wife#I feel so weird linking my fic on this but I know it'll like. clear things up for people and I sometimes get asks about FINDING my fic#(AO3 is in my pinned lol)

honestly it's been really healing being back to actively contributing things and writing out thoughts on tumblr the last week or so, because while twitter tends to be easier for me to write out Thoughts on without getting overwhelmed, the environment in the twitter fandom circles i'm interested in is not only infested with antis but cliqueish in a way that is caustic to the fucking soul if you try to express a thought that's more than three sentences long--a hundred times over if you're autistic in slightly the wrong way--and it's incredibly reassuring to come back to an environment where the very kindest and most inclusive people toward you are not clearly thinking the r-slur the entire time they interact with you lmao
#whosebaby talks#took an incident of just open petty cruelty the other day for me to finally go#you know what all of this is doing a huge number on my self-esteem and scrupulosity and social anxiety and mental health overall#sometimes it pays to hold out and give the benefit of the doubt#when your knee-jerk reaction is to think something Must Be a Sign of Shitty Intent; bc often it will turn out that wasn't the case at all#but unfortunately sometimes it turns out people are in fact just being shitty in exactly the way you thought they were#and at the *very* best you are incompatible in such a way that if they don't have bad intentions you're just never going to be able to tell#or well. not even necessarily bad *intentions*; just shitty behavior that's harmful to you regardless of whether they mean well#sometimes you just gotta accept that even if neither of you *is* being shitty it's not worth your peace of mind to never be able to confirm#and it's better to just save both of you the stress and not try to pursue that.#it fuckin sucks when it's people you think are cool and really want to get to know; it's a hard lesson to learn; but it's the way sometimes#......and then sometimes the confirmation you finally get is that yeah okay this is some bullshit#and not in a way that can likely be communicated past; no matter how much effort you make to be kind; clear; and mature#and being publicly humiliated for carefully trying to yes-and some clarification on meta of mine#which was being used in ways i was deeply uncomfortable with; and had had no warning would take the turn that it did#and which was contributing to the original post gaining traction in the first place#all targeted in ways pretty much tailor-made to hurt someone with specific issues they had seen me talk about + acknowledged#was just. yeah i think i'm done here lmao#i am Not someone who takes down meta once posted#so the fact that it was bad enough to make me delete an entire thread really says something lol#anyway. lots of other context there; and i appreciate that in some ways the person was genuinely trying to be kind; but i'm. yeah.#that shit Hurted Extremely; and made me realize that while i'm not the *most* well-socialized or articulate or approachable#there is just something in the water over there and no amount of The Problem Not Being Me would have mattered#and the nice asks/replies/comments i've gotten both recently and during hibernation make me feel warm inside; thank y'all <3#the salt files#bullying cw#ableism cw

ranked choice voting but it's Subway:
#this is my favorite subway bc instead of me spending my drive time thinking ''what sandwich do i want today?''#i just drive and sing along to my driving tunes and then i get to subway and the sandwich i order is chosen for me :)#not pictured: the handwritten sign on the soda machine kindly informing me that there's no ice. there's no Hi-C. there's no water.#so i got some warm flat diet coke and a turkey sandwich minus a few veggies :)#(this specific subway is situated in the STUPIDEST shopping plaza in town-- there is ONE driveway to get in/out and it's so close to the#very large traffic intersection that you can spend up to 5 light cycles before traffic clears enough that you can get out. ALSO!#the driveway that goes around the back of the buildings is a really sharp right turn from the only exit/entrance so semi trucks like#Sysco food delivery-- and even the garbage truck-- have a really difficult time of 1. getting IN the parking lot and then 2. making#a really sharp right turn almost immediately after entering the plaza and then 3. if they want to get out... they have to BACK UP THE#ENTIRE WAY. that stupid driveway around the back of the plaza? it doesn't connect back to the parking lot and there's no turn-around space#so Sysco sometimes... just doesn't even bother delivering. if the truck can't get into the parking lot after X minutes then they just#drive on to their next place for delivery. and the other restaurants in the plaza are very local/family-owned places so some of their#supplies are purchased at the restaurant depot store by the owner who just gets it in their personal vehicles

Yesterday I came back from my first ever holiday on my own. Today I spent the whole day relaxing and only doing laundry as I traveled almost all day yesterday. I had a lovely time, it was great to be able to decide what I wanted to do on my own and then doing it or deciding to do something totally different. I really enjoyed it, it felt really freeing. It also was a bit lonely sometimes, especially when I would be the only one on my own. Like when I ate breakfast at my hotel and was surrounded by couples, friends and family. Or when I went out for lunch or dinner on my own. Also the fact that you can't share it and talk about it with other people. I spammed my family with pictures just to feel like that for a bit. But the positive things did really outshine the negative ones. Who knows, I might do this again and travel farther or longer. But this was a great start!
#me#personal#holiday#i went to one of the dutch islands#i always wanted to go back there#spent my days biking and walking#sitting in the sand watching the sea#walking barefoor on the beach and in the water#just enjoying everything#even felt like crying sometimes that i was doing this#being able to do this and that i didnt chicken out#also sometimes felt like a loser when i asked the hotel manager questions#i've never stayed at an hotel before#and my anxiety made that very clear to me#but for the biggest part it was a really positive experience#it felt like an adventure#one i didnt think i would ever be able to do a year ago#and now i did it#im really proud of me#and i still almost cant believe i did this#anyway#might post some pictures tomorrow#i took quite a few#just me rambling#but this is the only place i know where i can post this#get it out of my head and my system

god I hate tiktok fandoms, I mean tiktok is bad enough on its own, but jesus you join a fandom on their and it's like you have to give up your intelligence to get in.
I can spell, sound out, sugar coat, and simplify the most basic things, and someone will miss the point.
like I know the kids couldn't do much to save spider, I can even acknowledge that there wasn't much for Jake to do either (don't really agree, but I'll acknowledge it just for the sake of keeping my head), I was just trying to say that it's really depressing how much spider went through for the Sully's for them to almost completely forget about his existence within a few weeks of him being kidnapped in front of them.
I wasn't even saying the kids should have done something, nor that they were somehow evil for not thinking about him, I get trauma like that's rough and for them to run and move on makes sense.
I was just trying to point out how hopelessly and completely alone he was, cause he wasn't even in their thoughts.
I spelt it out, and it wasn't enough.
I and one person try and justify them doing nothing, by saying he went back for Quaritch, cause yes, obviously the result of their inaction justifies said inaction, how could I be so daft.
I had another saying that Lo'ak making one comment about spider right after he was taken made my whole statement fall apart. another saying that Jake cared, but only when Kiri needed to be consoled, and again, that nullified my argument (not that I was even arguing).
like media literacy is so bad these days, I can't, I can't do it anymore.
#tiktok is a hellscape#and I hate it#like I wasnt even arguing#I was just like#hey this is sad#and then everyone was on my ass in 2.5 seconds#like please calm down#avatar 2#avatar the way of water#spider socorro#miles socorro#miles spider socorro#I have and made clear I have no qualms with the kids#that I'm really jsut pissed with jake#and now my notifications are gonna be ruined for the next 2 weeks

Like Water for Chocolate is the female-centric Mexican period drama I didn't know I needed in my life. Even if I hadn't read and loved the book and weren't completely mind-blown by the fact that it is EXACTLY what imagined, it's still just the kind of visually stunning Bridgerton vibe (with a dash of revolutionary history to keep it grounded) that I always thoroughly enjoy.
That said... IDK what I'm more weirded out by: 1) how young Tita looks given how sexual the book gets at times or 2) how VIOLENTLY ATTRACTED I am to Irene Azuela as Mamá Elena. OMG. If you had told this to my 16-year-old baby lesbian self when she was reading the book and horrified by how awful her character was, her little head would have exploded lmao. Life is weird and wonderful sometimes.
#como agua para chocolate#like water for chocolate#thoughts no one cares about#ALSO the actress that plays gertrudis is SO PRETTYYYYYYY I wanna claw my face off omg#and I love ana valeria becerril in everything she does it's kinda fun to see her in a more 'villainous' role#this show is just such a wonderful treat I'm really gonna savour it as much as I can :))))#between this show and what I've seen of the 100 years of solitude trailer#it's clear that the people involved in making them truly read the books and understood the assignment#and it comes across in the care with which the worlds of the novels are being translated to the screen#it's like we all collectively went to the same place in our minds when we imagined them I can't really explain it better#but ugh it's amazing and it really feels like we're all connected through our love for some of the biggest masterpieces of latam lit#don't mind me#I'm just emo about some of the most formative works of fiction of my teenage years being adapted so masterfully to the screen#also I guess I'm gonna need to read the sequel before season 2 comes out! fun times!

Media Depiction of bad things in fiction is not necessarily an endorsement but i think one i willstart #Cancelling for is depictions of neglectful pet care that is super common at least until hamster balls and fishbowls and critter trail things stopbeing fucking sold
#toy txt post#free roaming cats and dogs test my patience#sorry just had a guy come in asking for a hamster ball (no) for his guinea pig (NO) and reach for the SMALLEST SIZE WE HAD?(NOOOOO)#we told him 1)that one is way too small 2)you should not put any animal in a hamster ball its very bad for them#for [long list of very serious reasons]#and he didnt buy one from us but he did not seem. convinced#he was like oh my son is gonna be disappointed he csnt watch it run in the ball...#is your son not going to be disappointed if the thing ends up wrenching its spine or getting sick from being trapped in a ball of its own#shit and piss or breaking its toes when they get stuck?? just supervise it on the floor. its easy its free. what is your problem#why do you own this animal and not know this!!#to be clear: i was not this bluntly rude to the guy bc i genuinely want whats best for the guinea pig but like. My Guyyyy#him and the bitches with the tanks under 2.5gal#honestly under 5gal but thats me finding nano tanks frightening maybe. why#just. just get a 5gal...#im glad youre using the size thatll hold a cycle but like.....it just....doesnt seem worth it???#just do a 5 gal thats really not that much bigger. its fine. i just did a water change on the 10gal the other day before i put fish in.#it was so fast???#its Fine!!! i believe in u#anyway#im like half joking but i feel like the reason this shit lives on like this is due in part to media proliferating it as Normal

Recent things.. mostly just writing screenshots lol
#There's a water problem in the apartment so thats been taking most of my attention lol.. the way maintenance happens here is just#this big long vague wait with no clear communication. You just send in a request to the apartment building and then you might hear from the#any weekday from 8am - 4pm any time after that. Sometimes it's quick but sometimes its like days before you hear anything. So then#you just have to be operating under the assumption that at any time during working hours you might get a call or a knock at the door#Like if you were expecting company at any time for a week straight ghjhj.. ANYWAY.. I've been working on making a little discord#server thing for the game maybe for playtesters to communicate in initially i guess but then also after it's out or... something like that.#no idea how all of that works. but you hear about people doing it. or something... Still not entirely sold on the idea since I'm not really#a big user of discord format speaking (like little chats and stuff) but.. again idk.. seems like.. common.. for things...(< socially odd#hermit fumbling through trying to imitate what '''normal''' people do/enjoy/desire lol..). Since I think my biggest issue is I am very bad#at socializing and thus marketing since a lot of that is social. The type to just google ''what do people do about games once they've#made them'' and just go after whatever the top 10 things apparently are hjbjhbjh... But like I said. still unsure it will be utilized. it#all feels very awkward to me. then again most things do. But that's what the ''overall progress'' screenshot is from. the little channel#where I've been posting updates to myself lol. Also ''coding'' in that being used very lightly consdering it's ren'py and I'm only using#the very bare bones most basic functionality of it lol. Extremely intense highly daunting master level coding such as ''if x then y''. gbjh#slacked on writing a lot due to the evil maintenance and such things... and just general... appointments... events... aughhhhhh#I think it's Goose Time here or something because nearly every day I hear big V shaped rows of geese flying by like multiple#times a day and they're so pretty and neat to watch. They've really inspired me somehow. Today it was rainy and gray skied and high winds#and cold (some of my favorite most beautiful weather) and I went out to check the mail and like 6 or 7 rows of geese fluttered#by in the air. I felt like that meme image of that guy that looks kind of weird (william dafoe??) and its like black and white and#he's looking up at something almost teary eyed wide eyed in awe.. The goose... those are my goose.. the universe sent those gooses just#for me and the high speed winds blowing my coat open and chilling my face... a tender platonic kiss from the world is often delivered#by way of chilly weather and bird formations.. peace and love on planet earth truly..#OH and of course.. boy with boy!!!! shout out to those little mcdonalds toy animal plushies from like 2006 or something. I found the#gray cat one and was like.. hrmm.. I have one of those as well (a real life gray cat). surely they're friends now.
