#Pop Will Generate Itself

Here’s a sort of…. Prompt? Headcanon? Idea?? For Danny Phantom.

Let’s go with the,, semi-fanon idea of cores. We see the Far Frozen with ice powers, with their whole little civilization. They are ALSO the only ghosts we see that have any medical knowledge.

So what if ghosts with ice cores had healing powers? Danny is very durable, but he also (probably) has advanced healing.

Idk, it’d be a fun possibility to explore Danny ‘plays as a tank in irl superheroics 4 times out of 5’ Phantom finding out he can heal people while doing a school-mandated cpr class.

If I had had my world completely shattered by finding out I had been Manchurian Candidated and finally clawed my way to a semblance of peace with myself and then had my colleagues accuse me of again having had my brain manipulated to force me to do things against my will, I would lose my mind

Not me creeping up to the wordcount of the fourth longest book ever written

WRT the fraudulent itch.io takedown, the siterunner specifically blames:

BrandShield.com, the company Funko hired to shoot off their takedown notices for them.

Itch's domain registrar iwantmyname.com, which didn't respond appropriately.

I'm the one running itch.io, so here's some more context for you:

From what I can tell, some person made a fan page for an existing Funko Pop video game (Funko Fusion), with links to the official site and screenshots of the game. The BrandShield software is probably instructed to eradicate all "unauthorized" use of their trademark, so they sent reports independently to our host and registrar claiming there was "fraud and phishing" going on, likely to cause escalation instead of doing the expected DMCA/cease-and-desist. Because of this, I honestly think they're the malicious actor in all of this. Their website, if you care: https://www.brandshield.com/

About 5 or 6 days ago, I received these reports on our host (Linode) and from our registrar (iwantmyname). I expressed my disappointment in my responses to both of them but told them I had removed the page and disabled the account. Linode confirmed and closed the case. iwantmyname never responded. This evening, I got a downtime alert, and while debugging, I noticed that the domain status had been set to "serverHold" on iwantmyname's domain panel. We have no other abuse reports from iwantmyname other than this one. I'm assuming no one on their end "closed" the ticket, so it went into an automatic system to disable the domain after some number of days.

I've been trying to get in touch with them via their abuse and support emails, but no response likely due to the time of day, so I decided to "escalate" the issue myself on social media.

confession compulsions are the worst ones actually

[squarebracketsmileyface]

Could I ask where I can find the more "spicy art" for your MH fic?

So far, there's honestly not much, only two pieces for Sorry, It's Locked and like literally one for another fic, tho hopefully that'll change sometimes soon if I can finally get my ass into gear and start working on more porn art for S,IL, cos I've already started one, then I just immediately abandoned it with the sketch not even done. My brain got on such a fluff art kick. OMG I meant to do art for finger painting too, how tf did I forget about that???

Anyway:

My Girl chapter 2 art this has dick

Sorry, It's Locked chapter 4 art this has Tim boobs in a see through tank top

When I Call The Shots art this has Alex in lingerie tied up

I need people to stop thinking of robots and AI in their current states of advancement as conscious beings. It's a weird amount of anthropomorphization that really misses the mark on what the concerns surrounding these things should be. When you start talking about AI and robots as anything but tools, you begin to view robots and AI themselves as the problem instead of the people in charge of them and what they're being used for. It also makes you sound like a luddite who thinks the voice in their smartphone is Literally The Devil.

Can someone please either validate me or send me to the Corner of Shame? This is very silly but I'm wondering.

So. I was talking to my sister the other day about movies and such, and she told me of one she recently watched with this one actor. And I casually mentioned how much I hated him. Not in a "he's a bad actor" or "he's a bad person" way. Nothing to do with whether I find him attractive or not. Just in a "he looks the most punchable guy on earth and I have this irrational rage against him" way, to the point that I just can't watch movies with him without being annoyed.

My sister looked at me like I was crazy because, "what do you mean you hate the guy". And I told her yeah? That's normal? Don't you have at least one person you can't stand for no reason?

Sister was like 😬😬😬 No??? Which is wild to me, because I could easily name 50 (which I did - not 50 but we were getting close to 20 before i got too annoyed lmao).

Now she thinks I'm slightly insane (/j) (I made myself angry and may have referred to a few individuals as "stupid" and "obnoxious"), and I kinda don't believe I am the only person alive who feels this way. But also she's an incredibly empathetic extrovert, while I'm a very low empath socially anxious creechur so. There's that?? I guess ?? Idk.

Can anyone relate to this? Or am I the weird one?

Also wait. Little disclaimer: I am not generally a violent person AT ALL. Do i get annoyed and angry easily? Yeah. Do I feel like bitch slapping someone right across their stupid face? Yeah, sometimes, sure. Do I do something about it? Not really.

I can be real bitchy and extra sarcastic and petty SURE, but that's the most I'll do if I am legitimately angry. Mostly I just go to my room and cry 🥺 (crying when angry yes it me). So yeah. Before yall think I have unsolved anger issues.

thinking about how in DAI's Jaws of Hakkon the spirits have been calling the Inquisitor "the one who blazes like fire".

thinking about how Cole supports that because he says in a few banters that he can't see through the Inquisitor because they're too bright, because of the anchor

thinking about the confirmation that elves come from spirits

thinking about how Sera was always hinted to be closer to her spiritual nature and that it's, in a way, likely why she rejected current elven culture

thinking about how Sera's ears point where the Fade is, how Sera sees more into the Breach, how Sera has instincts she can't explain that makes her more Elfy

thinking about Solas saying she had "a purity of purpose", and also says "We are not so far apart, you and I." when Sera describes how she sees the Breach

thinking about how, when meeting Sera, the first thing she asks the Inquisitor is "so you're the one who glows?"

It's insane listening to actual musical theatre performers in this age of shitty idiots in movie musicals. Like these people literally train to be able to do this shit extremely, extremely well with a profound depth of feeling and the ability to project their emotions and communicate the acting part of it very clearly. Like there is no comparison. This is why Smash sucked from the very beginning btw

[skitskatdacat63]

Agh man rip glass animals for me, I don't even have a desire to touch their newest album bcs I don't want it to ruin my opinion on them as a whole lmao. I will stick to the first two albums for the rest of time and pretend they arent making music anymore fhfjkg 😔

[mikkolas]

nrm??? I’m shit with acronyms… could you expand his name maybe a a tiny bit more???

okay so get this there's a chance he might wear the number twenty-nine. and furthermore there's a possibility his jersey may include a color some would call burgundy. some claim word of it being adorned with blue and silver as well. and the folks down the stream... near the tavern — not that tavern, the other — yes, they even hint at an inkling of him having ties with one sidcros. the nature of which is up to personal interpretation. allegedly.

Silver needs a new backstory already his character profile in Sonic Generations describes his Sonic 06 background even though that timeline was erased.

The other day I was going over his profile in Sonic Channel (auto-translated to English), and I noticed that as well. But the issue is, the Rivals games were never actually released in Japan! There is no Japanese translations or voice-overs by the cast noted on the wiki, and the only release dates provided are for North America, Europe, and Australia. Which does make me insanely curious what Silver's first actual unerased-from-the-timeline meeting with Sonic is for Japanese fans, actually. The next Sonic game chronologically that he appears in is Sonic Colours DS, barring Mario and Sonic at the (2010) Olympic Winter games, whose games were released in autumn 2009. And since Colours DS is the handheld version of the main game, I'm not sure how its canonicity really lies, nevermind the fact Silver cordially greets Sonic there and sends him off to some rides. If Colours Wii is the fully canon game, it would make his first true appearance in Sonic Generations... where he also knows Sonic already. Unless that is some kinda situation like with Blaze being able to recall Crisis City there and the like?

As it stand, it makes sense to me Silver's bio in Generations mentions the fact he is "from a destroyed future", because in Japan from which it was translated they presumably know simply no other backstory for him than the one in '06 where that was indeed the case... even if '06's story technically never happened in the first place. But this whole mess does not add much cohesion between the various world regions, and with '06 erased, Rivals going all but unmentioned in Japan, Sonic in Japanese!TSR making clear mentions about '06's story while Silver has no idea what he is talking about, and Silver just plain knowing Sonic already in Colours DS, Generations, and even the M&S DS Winter game if it counts... just how in the world did they meet?

being so normal about peoples bad opinions on theater. being so normal.

idk what to do because normally being on tumblr and seeing everyone’s thoughts and memes eases the post eurovision depression but this year was so disappointing… i feel like it’ll just make me sad all over every time i think about it you know, even if we’re all commiserating it’ll just be a reminder

[21st-century-minutiae]

In the early twenty-first century, it is common to rate subjective matters on a scale out of 10, so calling someone a 10 is a (potentially objectifying depending on the context) compliment.

The pH scale is a logarithmic scale measuring the relative presence of free Hydrogen ions in a solution. At 7, you have pure water where every Hydrogen ion (H+) is matched with a Hydroxide ion (OH-). At numbers less than seven, there are more free Hydrogen ions, increasing as you get further away from 7, marking the solution as acidic. At numbers greater, you have more Hydroxide, marking the solution as basic. Because Hydrogen and Hydroxide ions aggressively bond with substances of the opposite charge, tearing apart weaker chemical bounds to do so, both highly acidic and highly basic compounds can be toxic and damaging.

The word basic also can be used as an insult when talking about people, referring to lacking any form of unique individuality or opinions of note. A basic individual has the same appearance and personality as any other basic person, a homogenous blend of non-controversial views. It is a scathing insult that dismisses another person's identity as simply being part of an unexamined generic crowd.

A 10 on the pH scale would be about as alkaline as laundry detergent. This would be an irritant to the skin, toxic to consume, and solidly on the side of being 'basic.' In all these senses, it would be a scathing insult, made more so by the fact it is juxtaposed by the faux complement of calling someone a 10 right before it.

An individual in the early twentieth century would likely have enough basic chemistry knowledge to understand the insult. The pH scale is often taught to elementary school students.
