#Super weird phrasing

okay okay so i was rewatching 'smartie kid" right and there's a moment right before mk gets his gold vision back where for like a frame his eyes flash blue and it's such a quick thing that i didn't notice it the first times i watched it and maybe my brain is webbed up in conspiracy theories but that feels significant? like the writers probably don't mean for people to go through frame by frame or anything but with all the foreshadowing they've shoved into this show it feels like anything could be important??
(frame anon is talking about)
(Post where I have a collection of strange MK moments that point to MK being related to the underworld)
Anon I will ask you this question—if it didn't matter and the writers don't mean for viewers to go through frame by frame, why include it at all? This is the first moment in s3 where MK uses his powers after supposedly "losing" them at the end of s2, so it's pretty significant. There's totally a reason they had MK's eyes flash blue during this scene. I think it suggest something along the lines of EAMK (Eldritch Abomination MK Theory—aka MK was something terrible in a past life and then sealed in the stone, hatching out a beautiful baby boy), but truly who knows what it's meant to imply.
There are also plenty of other strange occurrences like MK turning Tang Sanzang's magic blue:
or this weird teal/blue smudge in 4x08:
Or the curse emanating from MK in both 4x02 and 4x11:
Hell, even MK stopping the Samadhi fire in 3x11 all by himself! It all seems to suggest that MK is not what he seems (which currently it seems like he's a stone monkey, just like Wukong). I think you're picking up on what the writers are putting down anon! There are just a lot of weird details that are culminating somewhere, and I'm pretty excited to see where it goes
#plus it works thematically you know#MK + identity#Like. He's already worried about being ''too much'' like Wukong in certain regards#And we've also brought up this idea of making ''Wukong's past look like nothing''#Which means he'll go farther that Wukong in all the wrong ways#So if he were something other than a Stone Monkey. Something ''worse''. It checks out#It really does#Plus I just want to give him like 3 layers of an identity crisis#Like. Oh you thought being just a monkey was bad? Wait until you learn what you actually are#And they've already hinted at this in the show. Like. ''There is a reason you're at the center of these stories''#Super weird phrasing#And the fact that unlike Wukong. Who only *almost* beat the Jade Emperor. MK beat the shit out of Azure#Like. It's weird anon#It's all so weird#eamk theory#asks#lmk#lego monkie kid#lmk MK

ijbol idk man releasing screenshots of very polarizing things said in a private discord server between friends in a public "callout" post is #the most #tumblrific thing ive ever seen LOL.
#opinion 😱 in tags
#our life#gb patch#gb patch games#our life beginnings & always#i also think it should be acknowledged that the white queer 'experience' and the black queer 'experience' are totally different#bc there are multiple occasions where GBLady has recieved an ask where shes accused of Something bc of a super specific issue#this whole situation is just the biggest case of GetOverYourself ive ever seen icl#i think rose is entitled to their opinion as a black trans person + a person who previously identified as a trans man#i think its easy to attack rose as an inflammatory person who 'purposely incites discourse' bc they dont use that super-pacifying#everyone is welcome on my blog tone that if not used is immediately interpreted by white people as hostility and rudeness#i don't agree with a lot of their takes that ive seen on their blog that were allegedly posted BEFORE they became a sensitivity reader#but irdgaf#bc its their personal blog and theyre entitled to their opinion and i don't believe u get to feel insulted or slighted#or deem them as unprofessional and inflammatory just bc they didnt speak to u on their personal blog as Nicely as u wanted them to#i just think this all leads back to a growing sense of entitlement in the gb patch fan community#esp among the our life fans#just bc this is a deeply customizable game doesn't mean that the dev can customize Every Single Thing to ur liking#it also doesn't mean that ignorance on the devs part or the staffs part in most capacities is purposefully discriminatory in nature#like no offence but wdym 'ur hands are shaking and u need to get offline' bc of all of This... please grow up and go outside#also This is controversial but a lot of yall use the fact that GBLady is a white cis woman who happens to b writing stories#with a very diverse and nuanced cast to railroad ur ideals on how the characters should b written#and if they don't meet Your personal experience as a member of that marginalized community then They are automatically written incorrectly#again just a very entitled community IJBOL#idgaf if u disagree come and kill me over it 🤷🏾♀️#but also im very curious abt what people think !! 👁#i also dk how to phrase this but the white gb patch community also Reeks of this strange entitlement and i hate to say it but . . .#Sensitivity ??#they have this weird almost parasocial relationship with GBLady + this fantastical relationship with the characters themselves#LOL idk if anybody gets what i mean

i Forgot tjat season one ended with morty making the decision to stay with rick and keep going on adventures together despite at the time sincerely just thinking he’s a shallow heartless jerk and nothing else and acknowledging that all he does is bother and inconvenience him. and in that moment it couldve been so easy to leave him too he did Nothing to stop it morty was the one who had to make the decision so he could keep being with rick. they are literally beyond reasoning
#just. the moment where morty turns to look at rick just sleeping on the couch doing his little weird snore that he does#and suddenly looking super determined and angry ITS SO. WHY DO YOU LIKE HIM?????????? ;&;$;!$4&;!;383&;@;&:&;@;@;0;:&$3&:90:8290209928888#birdperson teaching morty the whatever lets you sleep at night phrase after morty says he’s sick of rick is SO funny but also just ough#also unrelated and stupid. theres so many times where ill just pause to stare at r&m bc they did something funny and i just start laughing#Or sometimes sobbing . because i just love them so much and they’re so inexplicably adorable to me rthey make me so emotional#odiespeak

I see. Some people REALLY don't like doors.

He hates the slow way of dealing w/doors
#ness and cas would get along#they practically speak the same language#cas vs doors#also i'm 99% sure ness and cas would bond over dean's little deanisms#he likes saying awesome doesn't he#he likes saying a lot of things etc etc#anon see what you have done#jack also instinctually gravitated to picking locks until cas insisted he learn the proper way of breaking and entering in s15#lol at his core cas is rude#also i think he would super enjoy seeing dean not understand the local lingo and get told his phrasing is weird#he deserves it as a lil treat#dean as a fish out of water and cas fitting in better is always a fun way to flip the trope

Time for another dream i had, this time about zutara.
This one is a lot shorter, but essentially I had a dream where kataras whole family(which seemed to have more members then in the show) all live in the fire nation, hiding the fact that they're water tribe(rather, they were water tribe).
Katara is in some sort of relationship with zuko. It's unclear if she's his wife, his girlfriend, or his mistress, but its not hidden. People know about her and her relationship with him.
(Putting the rest under a cut so I don't clog up the feed lol)
If she was his mistress it's kinda held in that way that kings had other women they'd sleep with along with their queen and it was just an accepted, albeit kinda shitty, thing to do.
Anyway, katara is also pregnant, which was kind of an underlying "plot point" and would return home to her family every day to check on them.
It's revealed here that katara is basically the only reason her family is doing pretty well for themselves. Her relationship with zuko means that they have enough to get by. It's also noted that her whole family(katara, sokka, their dad, their grandma, and some made up new family members) all live in one house. So its clear they're still kind of struggling.
It's also revealed, through a conversation with her grandma, that the only otehr reason katara is with zuko, is because it was part of a bigger plan. She and her family are part of a resistance against the fire nation, and when they realized zuko liked katara, wanted her to infiltrate and pretend to be in love with him.
The plan had clearly gone on longer then anticipated, for whatever reason, and katara is conflicted because she actually does have feelings for him now, not fo mention she's pregnant with his child.
There's a "scene" either at the beginning or after this reveal that shows zuko in a meeting with other fire nation officials, including his father and sister, and that either he was against one of their plans but is ignored or his plan gets shut down(I don't remember which). Katara always sits in on these meetings with him, and afterwards, as everyone is getting up to leave, she leans her forehead against his and whispers that everything will be alright. This is why we can tell she truly does care about him, to some degree. But it's also a moment showing potential manipulation, like shes pretending to care. It's supposed to be a little of both, she needs him to trust her but she does still love him.
After all of this, we cut to a scene in a forest/swamp. This part is kind of blurry in my head, but basically, it's a secret meeting. Katara is dressed similarly to the painted lady, her and a few other resistance members, including Sokka, Suki, and Hakoda, are planning an ambush on Zuko and his family, who are supposed to travel down a path nearby. Katara is a key part of this plan, as she's the only waterbender, and she knows this. She nods along to everything regarding the plan and she goes over important points herself as well. But as everyone else continues talking, katara is having doubts. She loves Zuko. She's about to have his child. She cares for him. But she needs to free the world from the fire nations clutches as well. She doesn't want to kill Zuko, but she has to in order to help others. She's hesitating.
They continue with the plan anyway, and through the foliage that katara and the others are hiding in, we see a carriage making its way down the path. Zuko and his family(or at least his father) are in there.
Everyone is getting ready to fight, to jump out and attack. We see a close up shot of Katara, conflicted. She's still not sure if she can go through with this, if she can kill Zuko.
And then I woke up.
#i was disappointed with the cliffhanger too I KNOW#it was a super interesting dream though#i guess in this world aang doesn’t exist??? idk. dream logic.#but i fell in lpve with this idea afterwards#the whole dream had this sort of dreary tone#the war meeting scene was at night so it was dark. and fire was the only thing lighting up their faces#katara leaning her head against zukos felt like it held heavier implications then we saw#when we see where katara and her family live it felt very poverty stricken. crowded with barely any furniture. a tired air hung around them#the scene planning the ambush felt very heavy with what they were about to do + with kataras own reluctance.#like the decision was already made even though it wasn't#ANYWAY idk if this even makes any sense#i wrote this when i woke up that morning and then finished up the rest today lol#i didn’t proofread shit though so sorry for any weird phrasing or typos lol#i just wanted to share another wild dream i had#this was a fun one lol#might wrote a fanfic about it one day#and if you want to write a fic absed off my dream PLEASE DO#i just wanted to share the idea with teh zutara fandom#i figured yall would appreciate it like i did❤️#zutara#avatar the last airbender#atla zuko#zuko#atla katara#katara#idk what else to tag lol#aml speaks#aml dreams

Hi what does the achillean in your profile mean ? Did your mother dip you in a river with questionable pollution control? Does your sulking throw a wrench in the war plans of the Greek alliance? Will future historians describe you and your partner as just friends? Do you hate sandals? What is it?
I’m just like achilles fr (looooves guys so much. and guy adjacent beings) except without the invulnerability. I’m pretty much vulnerable to every material on earth. for example if you hit me with a metal pipe I’d probably get hurt
#ask tag#LOVE HOW THIS IS PHRASED#basically achillean is the masc version of sapphic!!!#so. it’s not exclusively liking men. you can be bi and achillean#it basically just means you have a male aligned gender and you like male aligned individuals#can be masc enbies or fem men or anything (:< 👍#its a term I really love and feel really fits my experiences!!!#also thanks for being cool about it I got scared when I started reading your ask#because the last person to mention it to me told me they hoped my pets die and that I killed myself for identifying as achillean#weird people out there#anyway!!! it’s not a super well known term

I would love, even if its just its just brief summaries, to know the different thoughts going through bills head throughout the last smut. (mainly when he got the text and when dipper starts just blurting out thoughts and ideas bc i think those moments would be fun to see)
Imagine you're having the shittiest day at work. You're gritting your teeth and hanging onto it by your fingernails, knowing that eventually dealing with this absolutely idiotic, waffling, overstuffed, condescending dipshit of a client will be done with, you'll charge him out the nose for your services - which will probably be, like a hundred dollars, the way this is going! What bullshit. At least afterwards, you can collapse onto the bed and complain to your spouse about it. Which you have been doing, actually, waiting for a decent excuse to bail or check out early.
Then you get a text. And it's your partner saying they got you a brand new console, your favorite pizza - Oh! And a million bucks in untraceable cash - but you might have to kick your shitty client in the nuts so hard his eyes pop out. Does that sound... okay? No pressure or anything.
The reason Bill was a minute later than expected is because even he needed a moment. It was the sheer whiplash from going from Shit to Fucking Amazing.
#answers#Bill went from full on eeueuughhh about his day to practically having hearts floating around him#Perhaps literally depending on the magic situation in the place he was in#In my head Bill was 'hired' by a (shitty) villain and he got out of it by doing a quick betrayal and demanding to be cast out by the 'heros#“I Got THIS to get back to!! You think I wanna keep him waiting???”#He already hovers in his normal triangle form but this man was practically floating with delight heading back to Dipper#A graph of Bill's mood would start out super low then spike sharply at the pic#It then stays super high up with more spikes during all the shenanigans#After the smut they likely get cleaned up. Cuddle. And talk shit about idiots they've had to deal with#Bill Cipher has gone from doing his evil deeds and playing piano to an empty bedroom while raiding his own bar for distraction#To coming home to someone who'll listen to him bitch about his day and absolutely bicker with him about it#Calling him the worst thing in the universe. A scourge upon reality.#The most clever awful bastard. How *dare* he be handsome that's a crime -and frankly Dipper basically did it for him so he can't take credi#And sometimes even saying 'yeah you didn't *entirely* deserve to be screwed over that way. I could have done that *way* better.'#While Bill rests his head in his lap. Having someone listen to him ramble while he gets his hair played with. Lots of really good kisses#Warm. Close. Grossly domestic. But hey! Even *sex* can seem gross if you phrase it weird and *that's* a normal demonic pleasure#Sometimes fun things are just fuckin' FUN y'know?? Even if this one seems weird to other demons#It's. Nice. REALLY nice.#There's absolute no goddamn way he's going back to NOT having this#Even death won't pry it out of his greedy little mitts

Recently I've adopted a phrase "it's not my best work" and I've been using it in multiple situations (drawing, cooking, or social interactions) and I find it kind of helpful actually. Especially in regards to social interactions, it allows me to step away from the interaction and say, "yeah that didn't go perfectly. Maybe I could have done that better, but that'll be for next time. That was not my best work, but I know better now how to handle it." Idk it lets me feel more free to try and maybe mess up. I don't have to be perfect.
#text#august rambles#i don't know how to explain this super well#youd think like... confirming yeah i didn't do a good job. wouldn't help you feel better about it#but since framing things like that i feel less anxiety about awkward social interactions#or if i mess up. im just like hm not my best#i guess because its more like. ah i could do better this is just an off day. a fluke. things went weird oh well#anyway if you have problems like me and social anxiety try using this phrase today!#also works well with perfectionism in art#did your art not turn out like you wanted? ahh not my best work today. shrug it off and try again if you want

Dune fans keep warning people not to read too many Dune books is hilarious because I feel the same way about Ender’s Game. If you think you want to read Speaker for the Dead no you don’t. No you don’t.
Edit: read some of the stuff y’all are saying about Dune and uh never mind. Enderverse is fine.
#leo says shit#it’s not… bad…#I mean like yeah there was almost half sibling incest and the pigs had gay sex at one point and also there was the plot twist#but it’s not /graphic/ it’s just… strange#very creative#the writing and world building are very good it’s just everything that happens in the world is just super fucking weird#and racist as all get out Jesus#if you want to read some truly uncomfortable sci-fi that’s not too out there I recommend Bloodchild by Octavia Butler#it’s got blood it’s got aliens it’s got coerced sex it is nasty and it is thought provoking and I need everyone to read it#it’s super quick you can knock it out in a half hour just don’t read it while eating cuz there’s gore#those were trigger warnings sorry I phrased them like they were a good thing#dune#ender’s game#speaker for the dead

kusanagi tsuyoshi: bullshit artist
context came out really long 😔
SMAP was asked what they’re most concerned about ahead of their upcoming tour. Tsuyoshi gives a non-answer just saying that they’ll do their best on the tour, but not actually saying what he’s concerned about
Nakai calls him out as a lazy idol and that his response was completely mindless, which makes Shingo defend him (but not really). (especially strong preface with “I think…”) Shingo says that that (“lazy idol”) used to be the case..
..and then asks Tsuyoshi how he got here
once in a lifetime noises
incorrect buzzer
..and then asks Tsuyoshi if he understands the question and what they’re talking about right now
unfortunately i have no idea what he says but I’m guessing he bullshit (most affectionate) his way out of that one too..
because then Takuya takes a stab at trying to trip Tsuyoshi up by asking if he knows where the staff that they’re talking to are from(?)
and somehow in the most charming way imaginable..he responds..
“I got no fucking clue, man”
oh and at the end, it’s a bit….debatable what Takuya says cuz 1) it’s ridiculously slang and 2) that slang in particular can be used to add emphasis both positively and negatively lol
easiest way ive come to understand it is that he calls Tsuyoshi “really something” i.e. in the same vein/tone as calling someone “a piece of work”
🏃🏻♀️✨
#tsukutta#a clip#im super tired sorry if this reads completely poorly 🥲#also forever and always disclaimer that im not even close to fluent or proficient in Japanese#i use a weird cocktail of phrase i actually understand..mine ears for susing out romanization and trying to find the words..#and machine translating the subtitley bits tbh#which gives the most mixed results unsurprisingly ☺️

2024 reads / storygraph
The Crimson Crown
sapphic high fantasy
in a world where witchcraft is outlawed by the king, a young witch from a coven masquerading as a convent is struggling to come into her powers, and live up to her mother’s expectations after her older sister died
when she discovers a way she could possibly bring her sister back, and prove herself to her mother, she travels to the palace and quickly gets caught up in politics, along with the ex she hasn’t seen in years, who has her own agenda
snow white reimagining, villain origin story
#the crimson crown#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#sapphic books#hm. this was okay but to be honest 20 days later I just didn’t find it super memorable. even while reading I wasn’t really feeling it#tbh I feel like it could have been original enough to let go of the snow white stuff and do its own thing?#I feel like that was holding it back or twisting it into weird shapes.#some of the snow white related elements just felt awkwardly placed#and I feel like it could have gone more interesting directions with the plot. A lot of things happen conveniently.#The ending was a sudden escalation.#idk it also kinda felt like trying to do malice again but different yknow?#but like i just preferred some of the things inherent in malice more#I liked that there was a bit more diversity in the side characters (without them dying) compared to Malice.#My favourite aspect was probably her relationship with the princess and the handful of friends she makes#didn’t love the narration. also the phrase ‘would that i could’ is used so often. also smelling juniper. stop!!!!#also. girl RIGHT after you killed [x]????? you don’t think that maybe Getting The Fuck Outta There is more important than fucking rn#it's fine I guess. just wasn't into it.

man... every day I ponder more and more about whether I've got some ND fuckery going on in my brain. And like I guess it doesn't matter whether I find out or not bc I'll be acting the same either way. But like it does feel weird not knowing if my brain would be considered "normal"
Like I feel like I don't act very "normal" about things I'm interested in (hivemind right now and the lost boys 2 years ago). But then there's interests of mine that I do act relatively "normal" about like biology and art and such. And then with like tlb 2 years ago I was obsessed and then BOOM it just stopped outta nowhere. I feel like I'm just describing an adhd hyperfixation at this point but I haven't been diagnosed with jack shit so I'm. Oughhh
At the end of the day I am just me I guess... can't really change what's going on up there. Whatever
#text#i do wish i could act normal about this stuff. hard not to feel weird about being this engrossed in a youtube channel#but like. literally what can i do#trying to divert my attention to other stuff when im Like This doesnt work and kinda just feels like pulling teeth#ouuuugghhh. its 3AM goodnight#also wish i knew why i get fixated on shit cus it never really makes sense#i only got super duper into tlb on my third watch and id been watching hivemind for a year and a half before Fixation Mode turned on#like literally what is my sleeper agent phrase what is going on

Sometimes I think about how writing is received by the osc, particularly in comparison to art itself, and while I get that the community is for obvious reasons very visually driven, I feel like writing as a creative form just. Isn’t given as much credence. And I don’t mean this in a ‘pitting art/animation and writing against eachother’ kind of way, or in a ‘folks don’t care about/pay attention to the writing of a show’ way—both art and writing are important but different, and folks talk about good vs bad writing in shows all the time, at least. Rather, i think if your someone who buy n large just writes, your work is much more likely to be passed over, particularly if you don’t really write much fanfic. Folks just aren’t interested. Which is kind of a shame, honestly! It can be tricky sometimes to adapt objects to more literary storytelling forms, but imo it’s a fun challenge, not to mention that it opens the door to all sorts of different tools and angle you can use to tell your story. Not to mention that it can be more accessible than digital art and animation for some folks. Like. I want a novelized object show. Or something consistent of letters or news articles or an anthology of poems. I wish more regard wasn’t given to just writing is all, particularly in regards to original/non-fanfic writing
#not entirely sure how to phrase this thought#but it’s like. I’ve seen folks have really neat object show/story ideas but not make em cause they lack art skills and it’s like#(or they feel they lack art skills rather but still)#no!!! please don’t let that scare you off!!! write it!!! wrangle a team of writers the same way you’d wrangle a team of artists for a show!!#we need an osc literary mag Stat.#also YES I am super biased given that I think of myself as a writer first but still#also I think writing in shows could improve overall if folks treated it as it’s own thing worthy of respect n exploration#for lack of better phrasing idk#but that’s more teathered to the thoughts that shows should go hog wild more. get into it when you have a weird idea don’t be scared of it#don’t just nudge it in there a bit PUSH IT IN THERE!!! jump in the deep end go nuts!!! you can always pull back if you need to!!!#rambles#honestly I think much of this is just a#microcosm regarding how online communities tend to treat writing vs art from my observation? in part because most big platforms aren’t made#for it so writing-centric aspects of a community have to crop up on other sites instead#if that makes sense#if ANY of this made sense actually#osc

we were just in the car and the radio was on, and they said that fewer young people are afraid of the future than during the pandemic (as if that's even over)!
... it's still 71%. that's still most young people who are afraid for their future.
#I get that it's factually correct! didn't quite hear the before number but I think it was 80 something#it just feels super weird to hear them phrase that this way#as if it's *good* now because it's lower
