#Jimmy I've been thinking about you

[lightnersdream]

i've been thinking about exactly why people portraying one of the other crew members successfully killing Jimmy as a "for what you did to Anya" kind of thing rubs me the wrong way a bit and it's because like..... this is just another form of taking agency away from Anya, in a way. it's kind of framing her as some meek, shivery woman-thing who's entirely at the mercy of the men around her, either to hurt her or save her.

(i understand these are mostly for wish fulfillment on the audience's behalf because everyone would like to see Jimmy pay for his crimes. whether or not this is the intention of the person writing it isn't really relevant, characterization happens with or without intent. i feel like it misses the point by portraying it as an 'ideal ending'.)

because... Anya is a capable person. she takes things into her own hands when she can. it was partially(?) her idea to get into the cargo,

(before he interrupts her.. remember when she interrupted Curly in the dead pixel segment?)

it was her idea to get the code scanner from the cockpit,

it was her idea to get the medication from behind the foam.

(the chance to do these things herself is not given to her.)

she'd been keeping Curly alive for months in a critical state somehow, her psych evaluations at the start are only so useless because Jimmy refuses to take it/her seriously and Curly is obviously biased when he puts it into his own hands. he's known him a long time, like he said. "I'll just put good for that one."

there's not a lot of material to work with because of how the game is framed, but it's there. we are working with two very biased perspectives and neither one lends Anya what she deserves

there's significant changes in how she speaks post- and pre- crash, and depending on who she happens to be talking to. i recommend re-reading her dialogue, because the difference is drastic

she acts the way she does around Jimmy because he has tangibly done horrible things to her, is actively hostile, and physically could not escape him by any means. she can't take away Curly's agency herself, in my eyes. you have to remember that Especially in the post-crash segments of the game, it's entirely from Jimmy's POV, and he obviously does not (and has never) thought very highly of her or treated her with a shred of respect

i've seen a general idea that she can't bear to hurt other people for any reason, but that doesn't really track to me. this is the real point of the post by the way

it seems based on the parts where she says she struggles to give Curly medication. "It just hurts him so much, I can't stand the noise." "It makes me nauseous."

it's not really the same thing as, say, hurting someone in self defense

this sounds like she did want the gun itself. this never felt worded like someone who would refuse to, at very least, threaten Jimmy with a gun, with violence. if she had been given the agency to make that decision on her own. she wasn't though

she still tries to reclaim some of it even as she's denied it

by the end she's still trying to keep that gun out of his hands

i think some people overly soften her, for similar reasons the game itself is trying to comment on. she's not a tender victim who couldn't cause pain to another out of the softness of her soul, she's a person who's had every last bit of agency ripped from her repeatedly until she couldn't take it anymore. that's the point. that's why framing her that way, "needing" someone to save her, is odd to me

she didn't need Curly to save her, she needed him to take responsibility

she didn't want to escalate things, but she's not an idiot. self defense was absolutely on her mind

but who knows im just saying shit *smiles serenely*

I've seen alot of takes from both toxic fh truthers and fh shippers that Scott will never ever get over Jimmy and will obsess over him until he dies forever which. I don't fault anyone for asserting considering that fucker has two jokes and one of them is lolol remember fh But. I think there's something to be said about how Scott has shown time and time again he really is not in love with any personal qualities Jimmy possesses (quite the opposite actually, he seems to find Jimmy obnoxious more often than not during third life including when Jimmy is not really even doing anything) but is rather entranced with the romantic fantasy that Jimmy brings.

Jimmy is, after all, young and pretty and in love and someone he feels relies on him and lets him feel useful so it's not hard to assign him as husband and leave it at that. I don't think Scott is quite in love with Jimmy tbh but I do think he's very much in love with his husband (jimmy). If that makes sense.

With that in mind, I think it's then fascinating when you look at the universes where FH assumably never existed or where he is able to find a replacement for his romantic fantasy relationship. Witchcraft Scott has Milo and Rat Scott has his weird platonic(????) thing with Owen and Pirate Scott focused on his brother instead, Scott tends to actually move on pretty well and adjust to being more. Chill.

Now then if I said last life Scott almost got to this point with his thing with GGG and Pearl specifically challenging his worldview. And then he fucked it all up. Then

every day i wish that Rats SMP was a cartoon bc it would make the greatest show ever i think

constantly going feral over prophet jimmy. jim with screaming nightmares the week before a life game, knowing how everyone is going to die and knowing he can't prevent it. waking up in a cold sweat every night towards the end of esmp 1, the rapture plaguing his dreams. just... seer jimmy.

What do you guys think about Jimmy cosplayers? /genq

[britneyshakespeare]

i am at the looking-at-dolls-as-self-soothing part of the night. i definitely wanna beef up my bratz collection since unboxing my alwayz bratz yasmin was just like... oh... oh man... and... and i didn't think it'd be like that for me man i didn't think i had as much nostalgia for bratz as i actually do not just buy owning some but by touching them and playing w their clothes and their hair.

and one of my issues of course is that i'm a redhead and as a redhead my Default Lookalike Doll is meygan (not that having a doll that looks like you is the most important part of bratz, but it is so much of the fun right? the fact that there's a character out there for just about everyone?). and i like meygan as a character well enough, that's not the issue. but of the meygan dolls that have been reproduced, there's none of them that are like, hardcore needs for me except for sweetheart meygan. and i did not buy sweetheart meygan in time. i was not really collecting at that point. that was like 2022. i had a few... na na na surprise dolls at that time. which is funny bc i have four of those that i got all either on clearance or w giftcards and i do really like them even though a lot of doll collectors thought they were kinda dumb, and they were. i just liked the gimmick of the fabric bodies and there were just enough dolls i thought were really cute that i kinda caved at one point. i also knew it was a brand i wouldn't go overboard with. anyway. we were talking about meygan...

sorry meygan back to you girl. i know original 2000s bratz that have not yet been reproduced at crazy expensive on the secondhand market and it's genuinely out of control. but sweet heart meygan, both the repro and the original, are selling for triple digits on mercari, ebay, what have you. that's just ridiculous. frankly. i'm not buying her at that. i don't even like her enough to hunt for her regularly, if that's how it's gonna be. there are plenty of more readily-available bratz dolls that are either regular retail price or clearancing online andin stores. did you guys know alwayz bratz jade is going for 15 bucks on amazon right now? that's crazy. the other always bratz dolls aren't going for that low if they're even marked down yet. that release wasn't even that long ago. anyway i'm thinking of getting jade from that line bc i know some ppl thought that alwayz jade was a let-down, but i thought she was cute. yasmin was my favorite from that line and that's why i got her but jade was my second fave there easily.

i also wanna get the kumi they reproduced sometime and maybe girls nite out cloe since i see she's still available. it's funny there aren't that many core girls i've wanted from the repros but if i go for any of the cloes, new or old, it's gotta be girls nite out. cloe isn't even usually my favorite character no offense blondes she's just kinda. she's just kinda cloe to me. idk i love her but i'm not gagged over her most of the time. these are still bratz standardz we're talking about here so obviously i love her.

there's nothing going on in the world right now other than my bratz dolls. and if someone we won't mention wins the election, i'm definitely going doll crazy. i'm gonna be buying dolls after this anyway, but i'm gonna justify spending an unusual, nearly-irresponsible amount of money. you know. bc i'm an adult and i can.

hey also and of all the lines they could've reproduced why is their most recent slumber party? why? why? when the poll posted by mga had tokyo a go go WINNING? bc tokyo a go go is the correct option? i mean the slumber party line is cute and i like the base dolls and the accessories especially the stuffed animals are cute. but. everyone knows the bratz audience these days is adult collectors. which adult collectors are losing their minds over dolls in pajamas and bathrobes? again they're CUTE. but why. also why did they reproduce bratz babyz when those things were nightmare fuel

The urge to draw some mouthwashing fanart in which Anya beats the shit out of Jimmy because I hate him wholeheartedly and I wish him nothing but suffering.

Videogame characters like him make me wanna scream and shout and let it all out.

I hate when I watch the gameplay, and I put the pieces together so fucking quickly and then I have to keep watching this mother fucker of character being alive.

Thank you devs, you did a great job with that btw. /gen

Normalize giving players the option to fuck up their character if they are a bitch because holy hell Jimmy, you, you deserve to pay.

I could have made this post a while back, but I've been seeing a bit of mouthwashing content going around so, here I am ^^ showing my hatred towards Jimmy.

Curly is not innocent either. But he didn't deserve what happened to him.

Anya deserved better, she was betrayed and used and violated and the only person she had told that to basically shrugged it off and tried to stay "neutral" Curly ily but you physically can't do that. So kindly, fuck you too.

I wish Anya got justice :(

She's best girl and deserves the world :((

Jimmy when I catch you... Jimmy when I get my hands on my graphics tablet...

joseph gordon-levitt called jim hawkins "just a very good-looking wasp of a boy that I will never be" and I've been thinking about that for two weeks

[jovial-gender-jester]

something something chex & mcwexler parallels where the man kisses like he's the woman & not being the type of couple that's filled with 'i love you while knowing each other in a way no one else does but also holding such deep grudges because anything that impacts him impacts her because what is the lover's job if not to save the damsel and it's shit work but it's her work.

Wait since when does James wear a glove

Currently mentally rotating the prospect of listener!Jimmy visiting Scott after his victory

My supergirl opinions, note that I've only watched 2 seasons+ and it's been a while (note, I do not remember character names.)

I love Kara Danvers really. Like she's the sweetest, dedicated, most hardworking. But everyone has their flaws. And she.... she has them.

She is a good person, likeable even, BUT. She is a trash friend. I'm sorry to say. But she csn be an absolute awful friend. Example with Lex Luther's sister. She believed that she did something? Idk, and went on questioning her because of her families reputation. Like, bruh. That is your friend who cares for you. Why??

This also applies to all her other friends to be honest. Ofcourse I don't remember much, but I'm pretty sure there was a point she was like not the best with her work friend who user to be in love with her. And this can go with relationships too...

Like for Jimmy Olsen? Did I get that right? Anyway yeah. With Jimmy Olsen. Like relationships obviously aren't her strong league, but yeah. And yeah they broke it off, and became friends? But.. uh. I'm pretty sure there was a point she was just straight up unsupportive and overprotective. COURSE the overprotectiveness is understandable, but it is his life, but it shows she CARES.

Yeah so that's it. I'll have more opinions and adjustments once I rewatch and actually finish this whole thing.

also utterly fascinated by the movie adaptation changing the gay kid Ove lets sleep on his couch (and whose father Ove goes to to bitch at him for kicking his own kid out his house) to being trans guy, who still is allowed to stay in Ove's house and who he wordlessly starts mentoring

[stochastiz]

parent handing me their infant who has been obviously ill for the past 3 days they've been dropped off to me and is currently coughing at me while using a drool-and-booger-slathered hand to poke my face: "oh no, are you not feeling well?"

“everyoneeee is sick right now” (loud coughing) “i have a cold but i’m still going to class because i can’t miss it” (loud coughing) “5 people were missing in my english class today, isn’t that crazy?” (loud coughing) “can i ask a personal question? why do you wear a mask?”

[mikeway-posts]

I PASSED THAT mouthwash 💅

I made my pov-sketches…

If Curly hadn't been hurt as badly as he was in the game

As they say… I'VE FIXED EVERYTHING.

He would prefer not to sit at the wheel… In general, don't sit down anymore............

FUCK JIMMY

I love my husband (meat loaf) and his wife

Curly: What are you thinking about?

Anya: when we get home..

Curly is excited: yes??

Anya: maybe we should.. We're going to have to amputate your arm..

Curly : YES!!! Wait..

[goat-guy-tm]

I think MouthWashing has been a good example of how the media has jaded the common man. I see countless people say that Curly should have killed Jimmy or Anya should have killed Jimmy, hell that anyone should have killed Jimmy.

Do some of y'all actually forget that killing someone is one of the most traumatizing things for the regular fucking Joe to do?

Not to mention, Curly, who I am in the boat of believing Curly has been being abused by Jimmy for years, sees him as a friend and wouldn't even be able to do that.

Anya is a kind soul who wants to HELP people not hurt them. She quite literally keeps saying she doesn't want to believer a person's worst moment makes them a monster. She is looking Jimmy in the eyes and begging him to be better.

Swansea had no intrest in hurting him. I've wanted to rant about this but to everyone who keeps saying Anya should have told him so he could take care of Jimmy; she does tell him. And you know what he does? He gives Jimmy a fucking side eye. HE WOULDNT PROTECT HER.

Daisuke is a 20's something year old guy who knows no one here, he's being friendly to seem cool, he's not going to hurt Jimmy because he is pit into a position where he believes Jimmy can be trusted, let alone he's not gonna kill a man for a woman he's known for 100~ days.

And please do not comment "oh they could have just kept him locked in a room somewhere" because that is a whole other rant for me to go on because no Curly would not do that to a man he knows can be volatile and is mentally ill.
