even if basen is always gonna be a side character i love him... his gimmick of herculean strength is literally always a gag and yet he struggles so much because of it. his buttons are fun to press and he doesn't have just two unlike lahans older brother (ok he has about 3). he still has a baby face and is 19 and still hasn't gotten laid in a setting where most people have at least had sex if not children a couple years earlier. guy got unwanted advances from jinshi bc he misunderstood it as some kind of normal duel instead of romance power struggles. can lecture maomao on a detailed history of li's founding (probably rote memory he was ordered to learn), but otherwise a bit too naive and oblivious and unsubtle. loyal to a fault. he described aduo as a proud hunting dog (what's jinshi then??). has a complex abt women that hes slowly working on. single dad to a duck that got his love life together and is constantly in danger of being cooked. how is it to have your dad be one of your superiors and your milk brother be another and you could beat both of them in brute strength but not in cleverness?? also how is it falling in love at first sight and sacrificing everything for someone you've barely talked to? how is it being raised by your sister bc your mom is busy with the emperor's younger brother and then serving the guy you were milk brothers w and grew up with
edit: anyways Basen likers hmu im always looking for side character enjoyers
#love letter to this hopeless kid let me pinch his cheeks and ruffle his hair#i can also force many headcanoned complexes onto him srry. born to enjoy main storyline forced to like side character#anyways i doubt we'll get any more significant parts w him but i enjoy his appearances all the same. valued member of ma family shenanigans#the apothecary diaries#my post#basen#knh spoilers#in the end all my thoughts circle back to ‘wow this kid is so naive/oblivious! relatable!’ goes back to bullying him affectionately#love at first sight is still crazy though. good for him but ill never understand that#ah… will stop posting my unhinged ramblings in the main tag soon i promise

Linkin Park replacing Chester with a person who's both a scientologist and a rape apologist that supported Danny Masters is both absolutely disgusting and not at all surprising. I have no words anymore at this point, it's unbelievable.
#linkin park#best case scenario is they make up some excuse for why they didnt look more into her background and cancel everything so they can go#back to the drawing board#but tbh i doubt theyre even gonna acknowledge any of this and will just pretend it doesnt exist#theyre already censoring comments on the new music video and the livestream vod#this band is cooked and im so sad to see it burn orz#tw rape mention#rape mention tw#rape mention#ask to tag#sorry for not putting trigger warnings up as soon as i posted this#im going through many emotions right now and none of them are positive

My kingdom for a "So you say” (Patreon)
#Doodles#SCII#Damned#Helix#ZEX#Dexter Favin#Hhhh they ;; Their ''first'' interaction!#Officially up to three cryings - not that I'm surprised I love Dex <3#My head was fully abuzz during this scene there are so so so many interesting details!#So interesting to see which ''held true'' and which were left behind - which ones became Helix while others didn't!#At this point I almost see Helix as an alternate timeline - kind of like how Defeated is a branching arm off the main body#Not terribly dissimilar but the details that are different are too interesting to let go of so just make it all canon in its own way! Hehe#Especially since Helix is largely from Max's 3rd person perspective so the way he tells it is different than Dexter haha#Very interesting what he leaves out in his retelling hehehehe ♪♫#Anyhow enough of Max he's not even here rn sheesh ♪ ZEX! And Dexter ;;#Hghhghh it's all set up so deviously <3 That fact that up to this point ZEX has been relying on Zelnick especially to give him credence#And then as soon as someone he ''knows he trusts'' comes to throw a wrench into things - Dexter has as much weight or more!#He's specifically engineered to sow doubt and confusion! Gosh what a place to grow his character from <3 <3#ZEX's pride undoes him completely it's So well written ♥ Truly a fatal flaw for VUX and the way he's picked apart aghh <3#And?? The fact that I can hear ''Max's'' voice in ZEX's syntax as soon as he doesn't have a good argument??? Hello????#I know they come from the same base but like!! How!!! Masterful 💖#As I drew it it's a bit out of order - Dexter says he can't protect Max (😭) before ZEX starts crying it all got a bit mixed in my head#I was very emotional at the time you understand haha#It's all so sad! They're so close in some ways to being or having what the other wants but both fall just short#No wonder they took what little comfort in each other they could <3 ZEX comforted by his voice and Dex comforted by caring for his body#They have so little to offer each other trapped as they are ;;#It's all so interesting and distressing!! There's so much to think about as everything falls into place!

🏓✈️🏖️!
thank you maya 💞
🏓 are you superstitious when it comes to tennis?
you know, i thought i was, but then i read some of you guys' answers and maybe not that much LMAO i mean honestly with sports in general my main superstitious thing is that i NEVER say my team/favorite player is going to win or they WILL lose. i'll often go all the way to saying they're going to lose. but i don't really have pre- or during matches rituals or clothes i wear to watch my favorite players' matches or anything like that
✈️ if you could go to a tournament, which one would it be?
well, rome, but i'm hoping to go this year! i just need to find someone to go with me 😭😭 other than that i'd love to go to wimbledon, that'd be my number one choice
🏖️ would you watch tennis if your favorite player was not playing?
yeah, absolutely. i mean, for most of the time i've been watching tennis my favorite player was roger (he's still my fave but yknow) and then he retired and life as a tennis watcher went on skdnsnj honestly i love tennis way too much for it to be tied to one or even a few single players. i love to watch the sport regardless of who's playing and sure, there's some players i like watching more than others naturally, but i think i can say i could watch tennis my entire life even if my favorite players retired one after the other, and then i got other faves and after some time they also retired and so on and so forth
#i must say i used to think i would not enjoy tennis as much as i did when roger was playing after he'd retire#and i think it was a little bit like that for a bit. like even before he retired i kind of... was really sad that he wasn't playing anymore#and that it felt like it was inevitable he'd retire soon. it was genuinely sad for me bc he kept saying he'd come back and play but then#he didn't and i think in our hearts we all knew he'd never *really* come back#and it was hard to keep loving tennis bc in many ways roger WAS tennis to me#that said i never thought of not watching tennis bc he wasn't playing. i remember my mum saying things like 'i don't know who i'll watch#when roger retires! what will be the point!' i didn' t really feel like that.#but well. what can i say. we fell in love with jannik more and more in the past 5 years and that was that LMAO#now even my mum who didn't think she could watch tennis after roger was gone watches it all the time and especially italian tennis brings#us so much joy!#sorry for the rant in the tags lol TLDR i would always watch tennis. now i know that's a simple truth that i just doubted for a little bit#asks#maya#fritzes#tumblr did the stupid thing with the quotation marks again grrrrr. fixed it now sorry

hi hi i’ve read a lot of your milgram fics & drabbles over the past couple months and i just wanted to say i adore your writing so much :’)!!! i’m so especially impressed by how well you write all possible pairings of characters — you understand everyone so well individually AND grouped with each other, in comedic, serious situations, and otherwise, and it’s just such an absolute joy to read :’) thank you for sharing your writing your work is incredible <3 (i hope it’s okay to put compliments here hdkznj you don’t have to answer this ask of course!! <3 <3)
Ahhhh thank you so much!!! I saw this a few days ago and I'm still giddy about it asdfsdfs -- I'm so glad you've enjoyed them :D
#i try really hard for characterization and genre range but theres always that doubt things will fall flat or He Wouldnt Fucking Say That 😅#im so impressed by the simultaneous dynamics yamanaka is managing (and everyone doing ocgrams for that matter)#given the trial changes there are essentially 21 (and soon to be 31) unique characterizations to try and keep track of interacting#so many interesting parallels and contrasts -- reasons to develop friendships and enemies!!#its really insane!!!!#i love it as a reader and from a writing pov it has resulted in a few pieces being rewritten/reworked for a long time#so im super excited to hear you enjoy them!! :D#thank you so much for reaching out -- hearing this gets me hyped to keep writing 👏👏👏#ive reached a little lull as the semester is picking up but im excited to get back to more milgram stuff soon :3#rose rambles#ask

part of me is like "i'm neglecting my boy!" but also, between talking to rabbit at length about our various takes on this guy and also writing something completely different offline that's rosinante-centric, technically i'm not.
#‘ 001. ’ (out of character)#also i've been getting replies back a lot slower on here (which is fine ofc everyone take your time) & some other stuff had been dropped#so it's not really a motivation factor it's more “well i guess if more people are interested in doffy i'lll spend more time on there”#which is totally fine rn honestly because just talking & writing with rabbit scratches that itch for me because his rocinante is *fantastic#love rabbit & his roci very many. we have so many things cooking.#i also just have a lot more to *say* about doffy because while they're both fucked up in their own ways doffy is infinitely worse#but anyway uhh.... i still love & have interest in this good boy in case there was any doubt.#i'll probably rb some more memes soon

i really am curious about the current status of the big mom pirates. between linlin currently swimming in lava (in theory almost impossible to come back from), the emphasis on the cp-0 agent who apparently hasn’t been heard from since saying something about the big mom pirates ship, and pudding being kidnapped, there is so much to wonder about.
have they written off linlin as dead? if so, who has taken over? whats their plan for pudding— are they more focused on retrieving her over linlin? will they show up in some manner at hachinosu?
#I have so many questions that I doubt will be answered ANY TIME soon#im not even that big of a fan of them outside of katakuri and pudding but like. this is the first time we (the audience) have been witness#to the dethroning of an emperor in the new world (I don’t count whitebeard bc most of the aftermath was handled off screen)#so it’s fascinating to me#also TIL that the main ship for blackbeards crew is named after Xebec#or shares a name w/ him#which has me like 👀👀👀👀👀#ange rambles#hmmm….#what to tag posts like this#one piece theories#kinda#it’s more for my own archiving sake

It's either coming up to my period again OR I've just developed a disease where I get misty eyed at even the most banal sequences and scenes in ghibli movies. I was crying during the early parts of ponyo
#ramblings of a lunatic#ponyo is not a very emotional movie i just kept being like#OUGHHH LITTLE BABY...LITTLE BABY HAS TO TAKE CARE OF HIS MOM WHILE HIS DAD IS AWAY AT SEA...OUGH LITTLE FISH GIRL#nothing as bad as when i was crying during every scene in kikis delivery service tho lmao#i still haven't seen very many ghibli movies but they're all pretty wonderful#i had another art exam today so i think I'm gonna chill for the rest of the night now that's i watched the cute fish movie#I'll watch something new soon (i am eyeing that movie ever after 👁️👁️ sorry i still can't kick the fairytale spinterest revival rn)#but until then I'm gonna have fun#be silly hehe#I'm also at a weird place with my toh hyperfix where like. i went through intense pre-grief (is that?? what it's called)#like. near the beginning of the month#just being so so sad about it ending and the inevitable fandom dwindle that'll come with that (OBJECTIVE WORST PART!!!)#but that pre-grief was so intense that now I'm at a weird place of peace with it#once the shows over I'll probably start being able to actually like. watch and read other things now hsbdjdhfk#but i imagine it'll stay my main interest (to u guys. I'm more complex irl) for a good while (i wanna make more art i wanna try writing!!!)#just with other stuff spliced in as it comes (i wanna get back on reading sailor moon. maybe check in on deltarune again)#(TRY and get back into tlt again. hell maybe I'll check in on comics again! who knows)#but tbh as long as i find toh on my dash i doubt I'll ever really leave it behind lol#again- a relatively positive fandom experience plus a deep connection with the work is a recipe for me being Not Normal forever#I'm. making less sense as this goes on#anyway. you get it! I'm a big cry baby but also I'm at a state of peace for the moment. yeehaw

friends and close associates -- do i apply for a medical librarian position that pays between 15K-25K more than my current job? if you think I should, can you help absolve me of the absolute guilt I feel for even considering leaving my current position?
#people say 'you would be replaced in a heartbeat if it meant more money to them' but i feel like libraries are different#i sincerely love all of my coworkers and my boss is actually Not Evil#if they paid me more than 60K i wouldn't even be looking at other jobs#but in NYC 60K is barely scraping by and as I get older i want to take vacations and buy things etc#60K is enough for rent and some groceries and that's about it#but i still feel so guilty#and the curator of my division is a Soviet Jew and she has placed so many expectations on me and she loves me so much#and wants me to do so many things#I don't know what to do#there is no upward mobility here it's all seniority and even then the pay increase is minimal#i'm third in line to get promoted IF someone leaves and I doubt anyone is leaving anytime soon

I finished watching the Mentalist yesterday and I told myself that I was going to take some time to reset my sleep schedule. It's been completely shot to pieces by my inability to resist binge watching and also my whirlwind 5-day side job as an ALM on a very messy shoot, and I kept telling myself that I would get back to normal once I finished the Mentalist. So I literally sat there, after the credits rolled on the finale, and told myself that I was going to take a break, consume some fan content at a leisurely pace and get my sleep schedule back on track before starting another show. I was being so responsible about it. And then, a few hours later, I'm lying in bed and I get curious. Curiosity killed the cat, or in this case my sleep schedule. In a meager defense, I did have to get on my computer at like 1am to deal with a work emergency. But somehow that lead to me going to sleep around 3 after watching the pilot for White Collar. Why do I have literally zero self control? Why am I like this.
#thankfully (?) that pilot did not have the same magnetism that psych or the mentalist had#so I was able to go to sleep afterwards without feeling uncontrollably drawn to watching the next episode#and I'm also thankful that it's a cable show with shorter seasons#i really enjoyed the mentalist having so many episodes#but it's a huge commitment to watch a show that long#i'm in the mood for something shorter now#and maybe i'll finally be able to watch something casually for once#<- ha. as if. but I want to be delusional for a little while at least#also i really want to get back into listening to the psychologists are in podcast#i ADORE bts podcasts by people who actually worked on the show in question and psych is an absolute masterpiece of a show#i just need to find the time#and now that my brain isn't completely full of the mentalist hopefully i'll have more time#though i doubt my adoration for teresa lisbon is going anywhere anytime soon#she's just too perfect#she's the love of my life#girlblogging

I just-I just want another soul to see the chaos that is me and my partner’s texts.
Also one from me and my best friend:
#the first three were actually before we were dating#there are so many more but I’m not scrolling through the find them#I doubt a lot of people will see this but I think it’s silly#your regularly scheduled BSD content will return soon#my texts#ha ha funny

damm someone got wild w/ the tags, girl put a whole ass fanfic there
just saw a steddie soulmate au that reminded me of an old trope of having every lie your soulmate ever told written somewhere on your body and I can't stop thinking about Eddie with "I'm fine," scrawled all over
#Eddie getting his first words when he’s young. maybe 3 or 4 he couldn’t quite remember#a little line right above his knee that says a simple ‘Not me’#that wasn’t unusual. toddlers lie all the time. most lies are from early childhood and silly little things kids fib about.#the first ‘I’m okay’ appeared less than a year later. a little sting on the inside of his ankle he watches etch out while running barefoot#he doesn’t like that one. just barely old enough to start really understanding what the words are#just old enough he doesn’t have to have his mama read out most of ‘em.#he wishes he knew who his soulmate was. find out why they were lying about that and cheer them up by playing knights.#throughout the years he likes the little lies less and less. small ‘my mom’s just running late’s#and ‘yeah I tripped’s#and ‘they’ll be home soon’s that make him angry and scared#he knows his soulmate has their own slew of lies covering their skin.#too many times he’d had to cover for his dad. or his mama when the school started asking questions.#it’s why he makes a vow to never lie unless he has to. doesn’t want all that ugliness rubbing off on the one person who might understand him#but the worst one. the worst of all his soulmate’s lies#or at the very least the most occurring#are those stupid ‘I’m okay’s and ‘I’m fine’s#they vary in size and placement#some small enough they could be passed off as weird freckles. one so big it covers his whole palm.#but he’s got so many of them. too many. has them up and down his arms by high school and takes to wearing Wayne’s old flannels to cover them#some nights he stays up and counts them#knows by the time he makes it through he might have a few more#it’s sad as fuck. and Eddie never really got over his want to just find whatever poor bastard is tied to him for eternity and make it better#but he doubts he’s gunna find them in Fuck Off Nowhere Indiana#and all of that’s BEFORE the lies start getting weirder#- sorry baby I went insane in ur tags again#steddie

When you deleted your reddit acount because the Soul Eater reddit doesnt like your posts
Nah but for real, say what you want about tumblr, but reddit is so much more anoying - but maybe thats most social media, tried uploading videos on tiktok only to get copyright stuck the same second or just have them deleted for vague comunity guidelines shit, maybe I was too hard on youtube.
I know crying about reddit is pathetic but I dunno, just let me vent lol, idunno gotta get my shit together, too many distractions and other bullshit.
#soul eater reddit#but yeah i dunno I have thin skin so it got annoying when low effort jokes got upvoted while my love effort joke seemed to offend people lo#but in general I saw interesting questions with nobody writting anything to answer#like I get most people dont care and just want to see fanart or whatever but with the death of forums its kinda sad#like it is a kinda “Old” anime so you would assume the fans would be older and have something to say#but tbh I was allways anti reddit so jokes on me for trying to give them a chance and fit in when I just dont vibe with their “style”#like tbh I dont allways with tumblr#but atleast this website is usefull on its own like a blog and all while reddit is just shitting your shit into other peoples faces#and atleast here there are some interesting people with oppinions and shit#I probably should just have written it in the post and not tags lol idk#and I know its my own fault for procrastinating from work and the projects im actually supposed to do#but tbh the lips of the tatoos could be ragnarok lips and the haha's could be laughs of madness so its even more fitting-#but I guess Im the only one who found this joker funny ironically lol i dunno#is there some fancy word for bad impulse control yet or is that just called being a manchild baby?#so yeah i dunno what Im even trying to say anymore just a strange week or something i dont even know#also the iceberg videos didnt get many upvotes anymore so I doubt I lose much visibility but lets see with the next video#which sadly isnt coming soon#maybe now I will actually do the thing I promised myself#I dunno just imagine this is some private theraphy positve reafirmation journal#i'll try to not log in again for a few days or something maybe I should que the post for the screencaps acount for a month and not just wee#idk#yeah...sorry#also fuck reddit#and social media#and tiktok

Rare personal post I'm gonna blame on the happy brain chemicals, but Green Day will always be *the* music band in my eyes and I still can't believe I got to see them prove it.
#this concert was So Much in so many ways#American Idiot turned 20 this year -and Dookie turned 30 ofc-#which means it's also been 20 yrs since I've loved them?#and the 3rd or 4th time I've tried to see them live#doubt there would've been a more suitable venue than Wembley for all these reasons#jfc I was so overwhelmed at the very end a few guys in front of me were like “Are you alright”#no why doesn't everyone start crying at these things pshaaah#my heart is so full. I felt like I was being cracked open in the best -and most sobering- of ways. Found a piece of me I'd long thought I'd#lost#but anyway.#“Heeeeyooo /heeeeyo”#“I started fucking running as soon as my feet touched groooound”#personal#Billie Joe I love you so. so much#Always will.
