#I'll be so unbearable about it

[tifa-simp]

I can ignore a lot of bullshit take on Tifa but I can NEVER fathom anyone says she's weak. Like, let's ignore gameplay, Tifa still arguably has the most onscreen attack cutscenes in FF7Re: punch the Shinra drone on the train, kick Shinra hologram machine, defeat Corneo goons, punch the sewer monster, kick the ghost carriage, kick several steel bars, oneshot Hojo monster, hold Cloud plus the Buster sword with 1 arm, kick a giant wall into pieces, kick Sephiroth.

And all of those are just from Remake alone.

In Rebirth, she's: kicked a bird monster at the age of 15, picked up the Masamune that can only be wielded by Sephiroth, survived Sephiroth's attack TWICE, kicked Rude and Reno's ass, kicked a human trafficker, axe kicked a dragon and KILLED IT, punched Sephiroth's monster in the face with bare hands.

Like her canon power scale is so busted, if they do add her Weapon suplex in canon part 3, the only explanation for how anyone can walk out of a fight with her unscathed is because she allows them to, or there's some nonsense reasons to nerf her.

What are your favorite metaphors or other ways to describe butch4butch friendship and/or romance?

(yes i do know this whole blog is about that, but, ya know...)

i don't know i was hoping you'd tell me yours! mine aren't that interesting, i've probably thought of butch-on-butch love through the lens of every cliche gay monster metaphor possible and i'm not sure i even have any favorites, but i guess that's the through line: they are almost always monster metaphors for me.

i mean we jest about the "predatory butch lesbian" trope on here, but coming up butch, the world around me really did do its best to teach me that i was ugly as sin and probably dangerous. i grew up listening to my parents make up insane stories about the supposedly violent sexual tendencies of women they thought acted too masculine to be sane, and to be lusting after my fellow butches while this was going on (a lust so seemingly unheard of that i'd never seen it depicted in anything ever, not even in lesbian media)... well, it didn't help.

monster metaphors are a little trite but they are especially appealing i think, when you feel like an outsider among outsiders.

Furina's character design fucks me up so much. Because when it's Furina the human she has short hair. When she's Furina the "God", she has both her short hair and the long hair in the back, symbolizing how Furina isn't really a "god" but more a human playing the part of a God. And then when she has just long hair Furina isn't Furina, she's Focalors.

Idk, just the fact that hoyo made it so you can tell them apart fucks me up on so many levels.

In response to my post mentioning being baffled by my younger brother naming a tynamo after me when he was playing Pokémon for the first time as a little kid, my boyfriend made a chart to compare and contrast + showcase the many similarities I apparently share with this Pokémon.

That different people can engage with the same piece of media and come out of it with wildly different interpretations is a testament to the evolutionary miracle that is the human brain. It is also very annoying.

ugh. Back from Chicago.

relistened to Kane & Feels Yule ep, had me giggling as always.

But I'm sitting here. Waiting. Ever so patiently. For the day the s3 soundtrack comes out on Bandcamp. I'm DYING to see the names and spend a few hours timestamping. Ough the song that plays in the background of the horned god's part at the end of Yule is so good I want to listen to it in full. But its all so good, I really want to like...study each song because I can't hear all of it in the podcast because of ya know, the talking.

to be entirely candid july was such an insane month for me mental health wise. like i have been to therapy for YEARS and i am only just uncovering that i have the severe fear/guilt that if i am not productive i will be abandoned, and that i have OCD-like 'episodes' (?) that have sent me into psychosis in the past that i just assumed were... normal. and then also realizing that i was like massively fucked with during my senior year in such an insidious way that i never fully got until last month, as i otherwise blamed myself. and that's just a sliver of it? like. shit. psychodynamics really works man. also pro tip don't evade telling your therapist information just because you think it's "normal" if it feels bad because you might just end up saying something that in hindsight is a really unheard of experience
