possibly wild and out of touch take ahead so beware but if the second half of those eight digits is supposedly beato's birthday (yeah, november 29th, i've known it for a long time) and if we haven't been lied about it not being shannon's or kanon's birthday (i'm naming names now)... and if the beato we know as the game master is supposed to have been born for reasons related to battler, then wouldn't her "birthday" be the day of his sin? he sinned and then she was born, which sounds very biblical. and which means that for him to understand what those digits mean he'd have to not only remember that he has a sin, but also the exact day it was committed. i personally think it might have been a lot to ask of a little idiot like battler, but that's another story

obviously they won't say anything about it because they only comment on things that are nonsensical, but even kcarats are mad about this collab so i do wonder if they'll end up saying anything or will just act stupid lmfao

oh hi. this did not in fact take only an hour to write but hey it's done! any support is so so appreciated <3

also thread of me lowkey liveblogging myself (not) writing this lmaoo

Summary:

A fun little side perk of being a demon is that Crowley only gets to see the world in shades of grey. That is, until that world is touched by one particular angel.

They say that it's not the fall that hurts, it's the landing. That's a partial truth, at least for him. The landing did hurt—his bones had shattered almost methodically, travelling through his legs and up his spine like a shiver; the whiplash from his head hitting the ground had felt like an explosion of guts in his mouth. But the fall had hurt, too. Because the wind had cut into his useless wings like knives, his skin and grace peeling away under the friction, and he had been looking right up at the multicoloured and unreachable expanse of sky just to see it fade from his eyes into dull greys. And that was that. For the indiscriminate time afterwards, he and all the other demons wandered Hell's corridors like strays, lost and trying to adjust to a new life where hope looked just as bleak as despair. They wore all black, because the identifiability of that darkest shade meant that they wouldn't have to worry about clashing colours. An inconsequential problem, maybe, almost laughable in its insignificance, but it was the one piece of self-dignity they could still control. Back then, that was everything.

eybe surprised me with a drawing based on the holi scene in this fic and i treasure it with all my heart and it captures my mental image of it perfectly. it's included in the fic now too <3 love you eybe

honestly why did anyone underestimate peeta??? he's BREAD BOY. the country is fucking called PANEM. BREAD. of course bread boy has the citizens of bread land eating out of the palm of his hand like that's his JOB. that's the family business. let him cook. you think SNOW has any food knowledge beyond "boo cabbages"? didn't think so. that's the sound of snow melting and being brought to the right temperature to bloom yeast and make actual bread.

This is a good explanation of the massive protests going on here (finally omg) in English so I can show you guys. They actually interview some Panamanians and explain what people are angry about, which was not described or just super brief in almost all the articles I could find.

The only things I'd add is maybe more focus on the environmental impact of open-pit copper mines in particular bc they leak so much poison into the environment and water/air pollution especially, not to mention the deforestation to make space for the mine. Wildlife has already been severely impacted, and the pollution makes it impossible for people to farm in an area where most of the locals rely on agriculture.

But I think they did a good job describing the other complaints, like the government corruption everyone is fed up with and the historical reasons for the push back against land being sold to foreign companies.

It's okay to use contradictory labels. I know, I'm probably being redundant here. But I want to make sure anyone who hasn't heard it today gets to chance to hear it. You're valid. I don't care if you're a boy in whatever way, and you're also a lesbian, nor do I care if you're a girl in some way and also gay. I don't mind if you're omni, pan, bi, poly, or abro and a lesbian/gay. Are you aroace spec as well as mspec? Nice! Are you a mixture of all of these things? Something I missed? Cool!

Complicated identities are no less valid than identities that fit into boxes. And I will keep saying that, because there are still people in the world who insist on what you can and can't be (I swear I've said something like that word for word before, but sbsbs), whether it be your average homophobic grandpa or some exclusionist on twitter.💀

his little fanny pack on his desidia ghillie suit makes me giggle, him and his sniper are out on the field when they start feeling eachother up and he pulls back all excited like "wait!" then pulls out a condom and/or lube from it

oh my god

I like the idea that he has a lot of weird shit that couldn't conceivably fit in there but somehow does, so he's just prepared for every situation, yay us

[v-iv-rusty]

I wish there was an option to remove yt shorts entirely I try to stay away from it but whenever I look in out of curiosity theres always some misogynistic shit in there

[iiguess]

OOC. So. The idea of Sam being able to take on the forms of her alternative selves from universes where she existed at one point may or may not have been spiraling in my head recently.

Just? Her discovering that she could do that by accident one day, maybe after something messes with her watch/phone? Finding out the consequences of using that feature if she stays in one form for too long? The deterioration and replacement of her memory ( and possibly her own existence ) with the memories of the versions of her that once lived??

It’s one heck of a thing to think about, that’s for sure.

[unproduciblesmackdown]

like hearing an autistic person talking abt realizing like "oh so friendships for some ppl don't involve always having to maintain a performance" and going damn right yeah and now "oh so friendships for some ppl involve their getting to expect that the other ppl will be interested in them and provide support" like huh go figure. more surprising like oh right i guess i always felt like interactions require maintaining a performance that can only go wrong (generally true; like there's no "well you're ruining things by keeping ppl from being the Real You so just Be Yourself" like a] masking isn't Real or done by Yourself or b] like if you unmask people like you now & ableism is over, b/c it was your fault for reacting to it in the first place) & thus also that i should be interested & provide support but not expect that in turn / the sense as well that you are/can only come up short and have things to make up for anyways while lucky whoever's even providing the time of day

then it's always an Exercise to go "oh right well beyond going [my god autistic character] the whole time, what Things re: winston billions was i still not quite seeing as as unusual / Not Good as they are. even for billions" like sure noticing he's holding on to the hopes of some kind of positive / actual relationship w/rian for like year 950 & this manifesting with the Determined Friendliness but zooming in like oh i guess that adamant amicability sure involves winston suppressing a negative reaction to negative treatment and yet still hoping for an improvement, which like, was always Possible but a) hinged on rian simply choosing to change how she regards/treats him (or someone intervening to change the situation) & b) apparently is not going to happen. thinking like yeah that's very Friendly of him. and knowing like man winston's sure still trying to keep this friendliness offer open for like two years. but also now more specifically going like Yeah and pretty fucked then that his baseline expectations don't include that Mutual Interest & Support (though someone being abusive is definitely interested just not in any good ways. and certainly not (actually) supportive)

ALSO also gotta love the shorthand assumption that Lesbians Just Be Mean and Rude b-but, but somehow it's not weird to say that because see we're using an ironic loving tone!!! Totally!!! We definitely don't still see female characters as obstacles to be gotten out of the way by making her a Mean Unlikable Lesbo We Clearly Don't Give Enough of a Shit To Actually WRITE About, Nor Her Relationship With Her Girlfriend Either but We Totally Like Tho We Pinky Promise, when she's in the way of two men and our lesbian allyship isn't 1000% nothing but this...super backhanded lipservice that I personally find more fake and off-putting and patronizing than anything!!

Hey so your girlfriend got put into a fandom and um, they kinda. Yeah they made her the Mean Lesbian Friend. Yeah it's entirely because she's the only girl who's not overtly caring or kind. Sorry. Also they-- yeah she's characterized entirely as a wingman for the popular gay ship. Sorry again
