I gotta be honest, I’m not interested in Baldur’s Gate. While I know that I’m being a petty little butthead, having everyone who knows I play DND (under duress, mostly) and Dragon Age recommend it makes me not want to engage with it out of spite. A couple of friends have assumed I am playing it for sursies and that has really steamed my beans.
I’d probably enjoy it! (Except for the puzzles. I don’t want puzzles) I’m just irrationally irritated because the only new gaming experience I want is wiping my memory to play Origins again.
I am hissing and spitting like a small feral kitten.
#I’ll probably play it eventually#but no one was talking about compelling storytelling#and I was seeing primarily stuff about the vampire elf#lumping him w Fenris and Zevran#and it just steams my beans!!!#it boils my cabbage!!!#ik the comparisons are obvious and I’m just being a hater#but it feels like booktok marketing!!!#I don’t even know what the plot is!!!!!!!!!#everyone talks about the tactics and how you can do a bunch of stuff and someone spent 100 hrs in act 1#(which is also a con for me bc i don’t want too many options!!!! it gives me brain worms!!!)#ARE ANY OF THE CHARACTERS GOING TO EMOTIONALLY DESTROY ME LIKE ALISTAIR DYING FOR ME?!?!?!#I’m just being an old man#the real journal entry is in the tags#i know it’s an objectively well-made game and I’m glad people in my circles are enjoying themselves

#they make me want to kill things with my teeth and hands#also more of my human bill design you will see more of him#I’m probably gonna get the book of bill tomorrow so I’ll soon start being abnormal about its contents too#aria draws#digital art#digital drawing#fanart#gravity falls#bill cipher#stanford pines#human bill cipher#billford#bill x ford#I love toxic (soon to be old man) yaoi#I need to eat drywall I need to slam my head into a wall#nest time I’m at work I’m crawling into that trash compactor just to relieve myself of the illness#they’re in my fucking head I need to kill them both#toxic yaoi#yayyyyy

tragic that even with how lackluster the umbrella academy’s final season was, we never got to see five’s house.
i want to see where the old man lives. how does he decorate? does he live in an apartment or was he able to figure out a cute little home for himself? does he have roommates? did he ever learn how to cook for himself, or does he just eat fluffernutters whenever he’s hungry? does he ever get a mr. pennycrumb of his own? (i know he doesn’t, but a girl can dream) does he ever discover a cafe near his home where a decent cup of coffee can be found?
what coffee maker does he have? where does he buy his coffee grounds? how many coffee mugs does he have? i just KNOW he collects them.
he absolutely goes into little shops downtown and finds one that says some stupid shit like “if my coffee isn’t as black as my soul, i’m not drinking it” and giggles to himself in the corner and then spends way too much money on it because it’s just too good to pass up. he’ll smile to himself on the way home and then put on a pot of coffee to try it out for the first time. he hand-washes his mugs even though they’re all dishwasher safe because he wants to make sure they’re going to be completely untarnished when he wants to use them again. he has an entire cabinet for all of his mugs and one other cabinet for the rest of his glasses and bowls and plates because he doesn’t own a whole lot but he does like mugs. and someone will ask him about his mugs and he’ll properly tell them where he got each and every one, down to exact dates and times because he remembers everything and thinking about when he found his favorite mugs makes him feel less stressed. and whoever asked will not get a single word in and they won’t try to because five is talking about his mugs and he doesn’t get a whole lot of joy from material things but it is the simple things that matter. and five likes the simple things. and five likes his mugs.
#this turned into a five x mug appreciation post#can we PLEASE talk about old man five a little bit longer#spare change? spare change ma’am? (change = five being an old man headcanons)#i find his little obsession with coffee to be so endearing#like#the old man likes coffee#even if he doesn’t like a whole lot#the coffee makes him happy#is that not just adorable#simply put: the old man is adorable#can we agree#i know he’s technically a professional mass murderer#i do not care#he is an elderly man and unfortunately he is adorable#please add onto this if you have any idea#i will absolutley talk about five’s old man habits for as long as i’m allowed#laur says stuff#laur rambles#the umbrella academy#tua#umbrella academy#number five#five hargreeves#tua five#number five hargreeves#hargreeves siblings#tua s4#tua season 4#tua s4 finale

I hsve an idea. Could u draw rose and ianto as besties
absOLUTELY I CAN
they’re chatting shit (lovingly) about their tall, long-coat-wearing, time-travelling, death-cheating, alien boyfriends who have spikey hair
#Jack is nursing 10s broken nose off screen from where Ianto decked him imo Ianto would not let 10s nonsense with Jack slide#jk Ianto would not punch him he would just make him instant coffee instead of The Ianto Special and then stew silently#doctor who#torchwood#torchwood fanart#rose tyler#dwmmm.ask#ianto jones#SORRY I DISAPPEARED FOR AGES EVERYONE IM BACK HELLO !!!!!!#apologies to all the people who have sent asks that are sitting in my inbox im getting to them soon!!!#also I’m working on a big cool colab which I’m v excited about >:)#this is meant to have the vibes of the school reunion scene with sarah jane and rose laughing at 10!!#Ianto would be besties with all of 10s companions actually#him and martha are already besties & him and donna would get on so well snarky secretary duo#him and rose would not only bond over stories about the 9/jack/rose tardis team but also over being estate kids !!!#him rose and martha hanging out being the only under 25s 🚶♂️#s1 Ianto is the type to still get IDed for redbull#maybe that’s why he really wears the suit so people stop thinking he’s a 16 year old#anyway I digress thank u for the ask I hope this appeases you I love this vision and also hate drawing roses hair it’s SO hard#killer side part#but I loved drawing this bc I love ianto and rose friendship#ps theye matching colours on purpose bc they’re bffs#also like ianto in the audios constantly makes friends with random side characters you can’t convince me this man isn’t extroverted at heart

Initial drawings of that old man… I literally, I haven’t finished reading the book of bill yet!!! I had to stop and take a break for a week to feverishly draw fanart of myself petting fords floofy hair and giving him attention and shit…!!!! The urge was too great….!! I’ve literally. I had a crush on this guy the instant he was first REVEALED in the show, but I did not have the artistic prowess to draw good looking old men back then… but I do now… thank god… thank fucking god
#gravity falls#ford pines#stanford pines#self ship#self insert#si x canon#it me#doodles#I got a haircut! so my hair looks different now.. as haircuts tend to do lol#anyway… yeah… I LOVE HIM… GRAHHFJH#the confirmation that he rlly is just sad and lonely and insecure and craving attention and validation#OHH FORD BBY.. WE R THE SAME#like… ghghg i loved him already just w his prickly nerdy outer shell but knowing more about the vulnerable center is GREAT. ITS AWESOME#also hes a smart nerdy guy who can do science and expirements and shit which is ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS FOR A CHARACTER TO DO#u kno im all about scientists….#I couldn’t draw ship art back then 1 cuz I didn’t kno how to draw old men and 2 cuz I was like 13 lol… which would have been wierd#but I’m an ADULT NOW. GET OVER HERE FORD#also it didn’t even rlly cross my mind TO draw that stuff cuz even tho I did love ford#self ship and x reader sorta stuff was not NEARLY as popular back then.. like I specifically remember it like. booming in popularity#at some point. but being pretty rare before that. anyway. thank u passage of time and trends and new gravity falls book for introducing#me back to fictional man I love. so I can now draw myself smooching him and shit#hell yeah.#13 is probably not actually correct I do not remember exactly which year fords reveal was in…#but I was probably older then 13.. but still#the point remains lol.#also omg. the bit in the book w the goth moth. ‘ur probably into this sorta thing right?’#I AM INTO THAT SORTA THING FORD. thank u book of bill for being written specifically @ me. the immersion it’s great.#like ur so right ford I AM edgy and goth how’d u guess that tee hee. eyelash flutter#aLSO PLS IGNORE MY FINGER BEING IN FRAME IN THE LAST PIC. I was drawing in a tiny bound sketchbook#so I had to hold the paper down to keep it flat. and. I didn’t feel like censoring my fucking. pinkie finger out of the image

am I the only one who feels like the crowd that’s always crying “ooo this piece of media addresses [this heavy topic] without a character explicitly calling it out as bad so therefore it’s ENDORSING it and bad media!” is the same crowd who wouldn’t shut up about “the curtains are just blue 🤪”? Like sorry you slept through English class and are incapable of recognizing subtext or unreliable narration while the rest of us learned how to read
#this feels so old man yells at cloud of me but I’m reaching my limit here#media literacy#tbd#this is getting reblogs so here’s a disclaimer:that doesn’t meant that stuff can’t be bad#it absolutely can be#‘bad’ meaning rephrehensible for the sake of being so#or specifically to make reprehensible ideas seem palatable#propaganda comes to mind#but that’s why being able to distinguish between an author making a choice for narrative purposes#or when they’re just straight up proselytizing#is a SKILL that can be PRACTICED#also: I am ALWAYS leery of any calls for censorship for the sake of moral purity. historically that has not been a good idea.#why do people keep trying it?#I’m afraid to say that you must use your brain and do the hard work of figuring out what you can/cannot handle as far as media#no one can do that for you and you should not LET them#you should also not be trying to push YOUR limits on the population at large. they are not you!!

“I thought I was supposed to be the old person in this relationship,” Toji’s voice rings out in the previously quiet atmosphere, makes your head whip up in surprise. your concentration is broken from your prior engagement, hands slowing as you can’t help the smile that grows on your face at his teasing.
“Crocheting is for any and all ages,” you snark back at him, taking in how he watches the way your hands still move rhythmically—yarn over, pull through two loops, yarn over, pull through the last two, chain four, repeat. “You weren’t talking shit when I made you that sweater for your birthday.”
“Yeah I did, cause it itched like all hell.” He teases, makes you stick your tongue out at him playfully. he wore that sweater everywhere, to the point you damn near had to rip it off of him to put it in the wash. (the only times he didn’t wear it was when he knew he’d get it dirty while doing his…business ventures, which you didn’t mind. you’d rather he go a day without wearing it than googling how to wash blood out of a crocheted sweater that took you weeks to make.)
by the time you snap back to reality, Toji has already crossed the room, standing in front of where you sit cross legged in the comfy recliner he brought just for when you crocheted. it takes you aback by how quickly he moved, so silently, face suddenly warm as you look up at him from under your lashes. his eyes are dark, shadowed by his fringe, his hands in his pockets, his head cocked to the side. he looks devious.
“What are you cooking up in that pretty little head of yours?” you ask him, finally pausing your hands as you rest them in your lap. but Toji doesn’t let you, no. instead, he holds them back up in front of your face as he sinks to his knees in front of you, his smile wide and evil, pulling your legs from under you as he settles them on his shoulders.
“Don’t worry ‘bout it,” he croons to you, kissing the inner part of your knee, eyes still glued to your burning face. “Just keep doing your little old lady hobby while I busy myself.” without warning, he pulls your sleep shorts to the side, grinning when he’s met with the bare beauty that is your pussy. you shudder at the air that breezes past you, try to focus on chaining when he squeezes at your thighs with warm, veiny hands.
“But I can’t focus on counting my stitches when your face is between my legs.” you pout to him, hoping it’ll sway him to eat you out and then let you continue your project. but he doesn’t put his mouth on you until you start again, rewards you with a single wet, smacking kiss where you need it most.
“Guess you’re gonna have to learn how to multitask, sweetheart.” Toji grins before he licks a long stripe from taint to clit, your hands hiccuping in their movements. you can feel his smile more than see it, and come to the realization that he’s an evil, evil man. (you have to recount your stitches more than once, and even after you’re fucked out from euphoria and bliss, you still think you’re missing a few.)
#this is. so self indulgent sorry ALSJDKDJD#can u tell I thot about this while I was crocheting today#I made another sweater for somebody and it only took two days but I have to make another one again omg#but the whole time I was like. wow. I miss my man aksjdkdj#he’d make fun of me for my old lady habits even tho he’s ten years my senior :(#I make fun of him for being an old fart and he puts me in my place :((#ALSO THIRTY PLUS IS NOT OLD 😳 🤚🏼 I just wanna brat to him so I can get Corrected™️#I’m rambling now my b 😔#I’m so eepy okay gn 🏃🏽♂️#—new treat in the streets! 🍫#toji treats! 🍬

this is how I see g1 megatron
#transformers#maccadam#g1#megatron#tfa starscream#optimus prime#my art#this is so silly but I’m being perfectly honest I just think he’s such a pathetic old man who yells and I love that 4 him#someday I will make my fan continuity which mostly consists of optimus prime and megatron being old men who are bad at using Instagram#megatron thinks every vague post is about him and gets soooo mad#tbf Starscream’s vague posts are about him so he’s right on that front

i know, i know, jj is so fucking strong and she perseveres despite everything she’s gone through, i know, but fucking hell my heart is breaking over and over for her
the far away look in her eyes
the constant fidgeting to keep herself present
the way she only has the bare minimum amount of skin showing, even to where she’s covering her hands
my heart hurts for her so much and she’s forcing herself to deal with all of this alone
#even the way holly describes sydney’s troubles#and the camera focuses on jj when holly says she cries most nights#and it’s just fucking tearing me apart#that entire scene especially tore me apart#and i wonder how much of sydney’s emotions and reactions mirror jj’s own since finding out about baugate#this storyline is one of the most devastating ones in the show#second only to rosalyn and fucking 11 year old jj being the one to find her#jennifer jareau i want to put you in my pocket and protect you forever#if anyone comes at me for this#leave me be!!!#jj is so fucking strong she’s one of the strongest people on the team#both emotionally and physically#but fucking CHRIST she is SUFFERING so bad right now and it’s gut wrenching to see#i’m sick thinking about next episode#about how she’s forced to work face to face more with a man that violated her in one of the most horrific ways possible#and what happens when she finds out emily green lit that#i’m sick#SICK#jennifer jareau#jennifer jj jareau#emily prentiss#criminal minds#cme spoilers#criminal minds evolution spoilers#criminal minds spoilers#cm spoilers#criminal minds evolution#CME writers enough is enough!!!!#the jemily angst/hurt storyline is too much!!!!

hinata didn’t even know the score… didn’t know they were at match point. his contagious determination to give kenma the best game of his life prompted kenma to return the favor. to such a degree that it infected both their whole teams. few other rivalries have met the definition of lost in the sauce so thoroughly. happy pride
#lost in the sports anime yaoi sauce to be specific#i’m thinking of kagami and aomine being in the zone not just against each other but together#and kuroko’s whole team being in the zone together#and those are two of my favorite sports anime moments#but even that doesn’t compare to the raw organic rivalry that is karasuno vs nekoma#which was of course born from old man yaoi#i’m so 🥹#hinata#haikyuu#kenma#haikyuu!!#hq!!#ha#setterschattin#haikyuu movie

Plans for tonight: studying physics and psychology and not being pressed about anybody’s dumbass son ‼️🎀🥂💕
#man who is hot? we don’t care#we stay focused on the goal#saw the 28 year old grad student I had a psychotic crush on for the longest time but he’s licherally none of my business#you know what my business is? bernoulli’s law bitch#i was like 20 and he was 27 at the time of us talking and I’m to this day surprised we talked however brief it was#the daddy issues really shone w this one#guys my age suck too so in conclusion we just avoid men for the time being#instead of having toxic thoughts about looking as hot as possible to get his attention I will instead do these physics questions. bless#p

Every now and then I remember there are people who believe Endeavor deserves/deserved his redemption/atonement arc, but Bakugou doesn’t and I just….
#I don’t care if you think Endeavor deserves or doesn’t deserve his arc#BUT quite frankly I find it baffling that 46yr old man can abuse/hurt his whole family#which resulted in absolute tragedy for basically all of them and be deserving of redemption/atonement#after going years of not changing for the better and being an adult when he committed his wrongs BUT god forbid you are a middle school#bully that just crosses the line 🙄 reminds me of the “I can excuse this but draw the line at that”’ meme#like all I’m saying is if you are willing to give a ex-child abuser a chance surely a teenage bully deserves it too??#and this isn’t me trying to say “an bullying isn’t that bad’#obviously bullying is bad it leaves a mark and trauma but it just baffles me ok 😭#bnha#mha#my hero academia#bnha spoilers#boku no hero academia#mha spoilers#anti endeavor#bakugou katsuki#katsuki bakugou

Chasm: Curse of Kaine (Vol. 1/2024), #1.
Writer: Steve Foxe; Penciler and Inker: Andrea Broccardo; Colorist: Brian Reber; Letterer: Joe Caramagna
#Marvel#Marvel comics#Marvel 616#Chasm: Curse of Kaine#latest release#Scarlet Spider#Kaine#Kaine Parker#(…why am I feeling reminded of Spider-Man 3? alshsksj)#and Kay???? As in Sir Kay of the Round Table? Arthur’s foster brother known for his acid tongue? (please excuse the arthuriana)#anyway so here’s the thing#Kaine is ???? remarkably mild-mannered here???#which sure is something…#I guess the argument could be made that his time working with the New Warriors and leading a team during Scarlet Spiders#could have matured/mellowed him out a bit#but idk man#I always perceived Kaine as what you’d get if you wore down Peter’s already surprisingly short temper with chronic pain#and I liked that about him#he would cuss a blue streak at an old lady but he would still save that old lady#he had some major teeth and some very rough edges#maybe I’m blowing things out of proportion with only one issue out of this series#but I was just surprised by how…comparatively subdued Kaine is here#but all in all and again#at least he’s back on-panel and not as a last minute cameo after being absent the whole event hahaha
