What we need to do is convince all the disney adults in america that high speed rail would be a preferable way of getting to disneyworld compared to driving or flying. We could maybe harness their fondness for the monorail or something, but this is a group of people that has time, income, and passion that we could leverage. If we could direct 5% of the enthusiasm they have for limited edition popcorn buckets into calling their representatives and demanding high-speed interstate rail, we could get it by 2030
#at this point I don't care whether rail is privately or publicly funded#I'll ride the Mickey Mouse Express if it means not having to drive or fly everywhere#if you're on the disneyland side of the country I just don't have as strong a grasp on your psychology as a demographic#but I went to school with some twice a year disneyworld people#if you are a disney adult and you're reading this please don't take it as an insult#I don't think it comes off that way but you never know

Anthro Au Survivor drafts feat. too much worldbuilding because I cant just put pants on a slugcat like a normal person & my godawful handwriting
The Survivor (Their full, scavenger-given name includes the 'The') was separated from their family while traveling between colonies and stranded in the dangerous unpopulated wilds. Against all odds they managed to survive (and wander) far longer than they should have been able, but rather than reconnecting with their (or another) slugcat family, they instead made contact with one of the many wandering scavenger troops- But unfortunately not one that had ever met a slugcat nor had any idea what to make of a stranded one. Regardless the group gave it their best, ended up committing to the role of slugparents, and The Survivor and their troop still consider themselves close family long after Survivor finally reconnected with their sibling. (They're a bit of a mess though, understandably)
#rain world#rw anthro#subject to change and sorry if you actually try to make sense of this#but since arti is more anti-scav and survivor is a lil 'plain' i thought mixing scavengers in them would be a fun thing to explore#with the vanilla slugcats#unfortunately it means survivor was a very confused child who is a still confused adult#Also just cause of the way this is set up I think they have reconnected with Monk at this point#making this all so much harder on myself by not just going 'yea theyre in high school they ride bikes and drive cars' instead im being weir#and theyre turning more to rw if the creatures were sentient enough to do taxes#scribbles

What is fun about the last time Shanks saw Mihawk he was probably 29 on the cusp of 30 and then they fall out and they don’t really reconnect until Mihawk is middle age and Shanks on his way there.
That’s alot of time to miss someone you used to know intimately. A whole life has been lived there. And think how much Mihawk must have changed how much shanks himself has changed. All this to say that I really think Shanks loves watching this version of Mihawk being domestic and having his little old lady hobbies.
He loves watching him cook and bake and talk about recipes and how to make sure the little gremlins under his care are getting the proper nutrients. He loves watching him tend to his garden with his ridiculously domestic sun hat, he loves watching him pick strawberries and put them into a little quicker basket and plant and harvest cocoa trees for Perona, and teach Zoro how to chop vegetables really fast and embroider his little flower patterns and read erotica and newspapers Like the same thing and take naps in the sun spot like a cat and interact with the kids and just he likes seeing Mihawk live his life because I will never come down from the hill that Shanks really kind of subconsciously worries about him and his loneliness and kind of the empty way he was living his life.
Cause like I think for shanks it’s such a jarring juxtaposition with the Mihawk that’s still freshest in his memories 10 years ago. 20 something young dangerous and wanted. Mihawk back then was probably the definition of vagabond literally bound to nothing and no one except occasionally shanks. Sailing around in a tiny ass boat with only wine and his sword a one man calamity.The Mihawk he remembers was always itching for a fight and would gladly start one. And because I headcannon Mihawk probably didn’t get his title till after his big blowout with shanks this is still a Mihawk with a lot to fucking prove and he’ll prove it every chance he gets. This is a Mihawk who still regularly accepts challengers and is also actively challenging people. This is a Mihawk that is hunting marines for sport (or revenge Or both) His life revolves around wine, sword-fighting, violence and blood shed and in the way only a man that doesn’t even realize how lonely he is it revolved around shanks.
I just think 20 something Mihawk had 1 friend and 1 hobby and hewas a lonely fuck who was so intensely single-mindedly putting all his energy into both he ends up kind of losing both (shanks crumples under the weights of his expectations and he literally positions himself so far above the crowd in swordsmanship and the one fight he actually does want to have is ruined for him that for a long period of time he doesn’t even experience the same joy that he used to while fighting it’s just another thing he can no longer fully indulge in) 20 something year old Mihawk was a discontent mess rapidly spiraling into depression and nihilistic boredorm and like Shanks can’t do anything about it because Mihawk won’t do anything about it he won’t even properly acknowledge it’s happening. And suddenly they aren’t friends anymore the love of his life literally walks out of it.
And then 10 years go by and zap suddenly here’s this 41 one year old man mostly unchanged but definetly more mature on the cusp of something truly life changing and then there’s this 43 year old with an island and a home and these 2 kids that he can’t even properly contextualize how they fit into his life and that must be so jarring one moment shanks remember A 29 year old nihilist that is literally breaking his heart and now here’s a “mellowed” out little old grandma hobby having middle aged man doing needle point on a Sunday evening come to take his place. A whole life lived in 12 years and Shanks didn’t get to see a lot of it but he’s so glad to see this now, that he gets to have this now.
#I don’t know just something about young Mihawk being an airplane crash made human form is right up my alley#like very rarely happens but burns fucking bright and is catastrophic when it does#born from my thinking that Mihawk had to be the most unexpected crash out back in the day#lliterally the one friend you knew in high school you were was going to drive themselves to an early grave dead in a ditch somewhere#grew up to be a kind of somewhat well adjusted adult if you don’t squint to hard#and by dead in a ditch I mean going out in a blaze of glory with a sword stabbed threw his heart#this is also born if my belief that part of why mishanks failed is because Mihawk had no other friends and being as obsessive as he can get#that’s not good for anyone#but also this is just an ode to young mishanks and the fun I they must have had being young talented and wanted#one piece#throwing thoughts to the void#dracule mihawk#op#hawkeye mihawk#mishanks#akagami no shanks#shanks#red haired shanks#akataka#red hair shanks#perona and zoro#perona one piece#roronoa zoro#goth family#goth fam

I love it when people are like "Oh, yeah, Harris lost by one vote."
Actually, she had gotten 6,285,500 less votes than Biden in 2020.
donald got 3,059,799 more votes than he did in 2020.
She lost because more people got brainwashed by the right and less of the left voted—so, yeah, you people who didn't vote cuz you didn't think it would do anything?
Go fuck yourself
#if you didn't vote#kill yourself or something dawg#I don't know how else to say it#but like#if you couldn't vote#cuz school or work or the closest voting center was too far to drive on Election Day#THERE WAS STILL MAIL-IN VOTING YOU FOOL#but y'all are excused cuz I understand it#trump#kamala harris#also you cannot tell me America didn't get worse after trump 2016#El Paso#Buffalo#Jacksonville#The fact that Republicans have a Majority in all sects of government#What are you adults doing to try and combat this?#Are you calling your representative in the house?#Your senator?#How about in your statehouse?#these next four years can and will change America for the worst#and the consequences of that will echo for decades to come#just as Nixon and Bush W did#you can't pretend this won't effect you#Call your representative#Your senator#In Congress and in your statehouse#it is literally the least you can do#get of ya lilly white asses#politics#us politics

#okay I’m loving dance fever and the new symphonic lungs album#I have fond memories of listening to lungs on sunny drives with my friends in high school#it’s like a fun rehash for adult me#and dance fever is obviously groundbreaking#Florence and the machine#Florence Welch

Neglect is a specifically insidious type of abuse where no one believes you’re being treated poorly because you have nice things and your family doesn’t even realize or believe you when you say that they’re doing something wrong.
#I don’t know how to take care of myself alone properly cause I was not taught 💖#I also never have true privacy or am ever truly alone#I can’t do random things I want to do because everything is shame and scrutiny even doing nothing#I don’t know how to physically relax#I am excluded from socialization#I was not allowed to interact with other children outside of school#I am laughed at when I ask to do adult tasks like drive a car#I am consistently and constantly spoken to like a child#it is always assumed that I am an idiot who couldn’t possibly understand things and then I am never told or taught#tasks are literally taken out of my hands while I’m doing them because I’m not ‘fast enough’ or ‘doing it right’#I am denied the ability to make mistakes and learn anything on my own#I am unable to be myself in my house for fear of punishment#I am bought things that are used as leverage to shame me later#I am ignored and abandoned I am shamed and chastised I am wrong and ignorant I am a child at 22 years old#I am fucking miserable#I don’t know what to do about it#but because I’m not beat and cared about it’s not real#text post#vent post#shout into the void

Interesting that the # of licensed drivers in the US is decreasing
#not really ig bc urbanization is still a force#but it remains up in the air whether we're going to see improvements in public transportation over the next couple decades afaik#also i think a lot of the migration to cities rn is cities that have definitively poor public transportation e.g. houston#or my own beloved charlotte (not beloved)#from experience i know that it can actually be more difficult & less safe to navigate without a car in those places than in rural areas#(btw just looked it up and confirmed it is this sort of city that's seeing population growth)#(mostly)#soo back to why are licensed driver numbers dropping#i think i want to pin it on lack of resources?#plus this is mostly an issue among young adults many of whom weren't physically at school during the time when students take driving classes#this interests me bc people have always thought it was really weird i never learned to drive but i've noticed more and more ppl#especially young women#talking about not knowing how to drive

#im doing it again. fighting the insane urge to read the bible#i mean it makes sense rn bc im like halfway thru watching jesus christ superstar for the 1st time and its driving me up a wall#bc i just fucking love how the further u go back in history. the more the lines blur between history and mythology#bc the adventures of jesus christ feel very different depending upon if u believe jesus is the son of god or not. bc if hes not then hes#an apocalyptic cult leader. and i mean either way i find it hard not to be sympathetic toward judas bc he is the reason jesus takes his#place in history and religion. but its especially hard not to synthesize if jesus is just a fucking guy who is really activating the ppl.#riding into Jerusalem on a donkey to put himself at the center of prophecy knowing damn well thats what hes doing. calling the temple his#temple. calli g himself the son of god. claiming to heal ppl. thats like pretty unhinged if hes just a guy.#and i dont remember enough of the new testiment to remember the words that its said he said to interpret for myself his intentions.#like my rememberance is that he was preaching kindness and helping the poor and sick. which is good. but that#was thru the interpretation of my chill pastors lol. im curious how i would hear it now while fully listening and as a critical adult. and#while trying to remember the historic political context. its just so interesting. the easter story is just so good. its so dramatic and#theres good interpersonal drama. easter and exidous r rhe best Christian bible stories imo. Anyway im really digging this musical. i lov th#weird unsettling discordant music. either bc this is a story where the literal son of god dies. or its a story where ur not sure who's#perspective you should trust between judas and everyone else. and i mean. theres a revolutionary undercurrent bc of the political situation#but i dont kno the greater context so its hard to judge how much of a coward im supposed to think judas is for not wanting to fight back#against the romans. especially if jesus is just a guy and not the son of god. ugh. its too jucy.#anyway. i just like biblical history a lot but its hard to find ppl talking abt it from a nonreligous perspective. but at the same time i#remember the set up the basically the adult Sunday school and they had up a map of the middle east. and the idea of of reading sections of#the bible and discssing the historical context is v compelling to me. except i would b absolutely intolerable in that setting lol#bc im inquisitive and contrary and agnostic#unrelated#lol i forgot to say that no matter what jesus shouldnt have been crucified. nobody should ever be#crucified bc its probably one of the worst ways you can possibly die

very minor thing I still definitely deserve a medal for:
being raised catholic, and now as an adult repeatedly falling in love with characters that fandoms like to declare catholic, but still managing to reject those headcanons because at heart I'm too much of a stickler for accurate analysis to get behind them when i know the person in question is really meant to be anglican/episcopalian/whatever other flavor of christian
i am being, as the poets say, so brave about it
#i dont wanna list examples bc this is just a lil vent post im not looking to make this pop up in any tags & insult anybody#bc tbh some of the worst offenders are absolutely top-tier favorite characters of mine with woefully small fandoms#& the LAST thing i wanna do is be rude about or discourage anyone who posts about/writes for/discusses them#just because i happen to have trouble getting on board with one part of their analysis.#but it does amaze me that this Keeps happening#talk about resisting temptation#& for the record when i say 'raised catholic' i do not just mean christmas and easter catholic okay#im talking 'college was the first time in my life religion wasnt a required subject' catholic#'virtually everybody i knew as a teen went to different single-sex high schools' catholic#horrible uniforms. strict nuns. classes interrupted for masses for even the minor holidays. joined choir for something to do-catholic#as an adult i still have friends & acquaintances who work in/for churches type-catholic#my mom actively tries to hide rosary beads & scapulars in my bags & car every time i come home catholic#(i dont even think most people know what scapulars ARE for christ's sake! & if they think they do they're probably picturing the wrong one#meanwhile i've got a routine list of hiding spots to check for them before driving away)#my point is.#if it made even a scrap of sense for any of these characters to actually be catholics trust me i'd be the FIRST one saying so#bc i know i could write the SHIT out of all the angsty repressed queer guilt religious trauma stuff everyone's drawn to it for#that's like the very least i could get out of having been up to my eyeballs in it for the first two decades of my life#but 99% of the time it just doesn't track w/ what we know about them at all im sorry.#im sorry your moodboard yearns for stained glass saints#im sorry your fic hinges upon a flashback to a certain sacrament#but im just not buying it

i am so fantastically not ready to turn 20 in two months... i cant even drive man
#idk i have been like. friends with a pretty wide variety of people i think#so i am Aware that it is so not a big deal to be 20 and be like financially dependent on your parents and not have a license#i have friends who will probably live with their parents forever bc of disabilities i have friends who ik are living at home rn#ive talked to very accomplished adults who dicked around for the entirety of their 20s and adults who dropped out of high school or whatever#but Still. just feel like i am uhh kinda behind for my age for no good reason. like am i really That mentally ill.#eternal spectre of the perfect adhdless version of me you know how it is. I assume once i get used to not being a teenager I'll get over it#and i mean. i am also aware that this is mostly a usamerican thing and that i would be entirely unremarkable in say most of asia#realistically. i need to make tangible process on my driving and work on getting a job either parttime or over the summer#and that will solve my internal crisis#... passing all my classes is also helping. im like not a prospective college dropout anymore im actually Involved in school stuff

even for period typical ableism it still drives me nuts for karen to go oh poor matt how can he deal and get around as if he hasn't been blind most of his life at this point and living on his own by himself as an adult for his entire adult life after college and has also lived in the city his whole life like girl use your damn brain he can get around by himself just fine. good god. like take five seconds to use your brain. literally adult man who lives by himself if nothing else that should tell you he is fine and when he needs assistance has the knowledge and ability to go get it you act as if he can't even walk on the sidewalk by himself. he literally shows up to work by himself. it drives me up the wall sometimes how she sees proof of him functioning fine independently literally witnesses it on the daily and still thinks these things. like again foggy isn't great either bc again the period typical ableism (and just general ableism in the world outside of this period as this is a common attitude of viewing disabled people as helpless and unable to function even if they are people who do live independently (and im not touching on people who do need extra support and caretaking in this context. as this post is about these characters in the context of a story. so im talking about what we see there instead of any truly meaningful nuanced way) but the writing here is like. Particularly this way due to the time) he has a modicum more of understanding that matt is literally a capable grown adult man. literally told karen matt is a big boy who can handle himself and then karen went b-b-but you forget he's blind as if foggy hasn't known him for years of his life and is his best friend like PLEASE SEE HIM AS AN ADULT. I AM GOING TO GO INSANE. PLEASE RESPECT HIM IF YOU LOVE HIM SO DEARLY. AND EVEN IF YOU DIDN'T. JUST RESPECT HIM AS A PERSON!!!!!!
#i think it's particularly maddening bc we have seen characters be able to understand civillian matt is like. more than just Blind Man.#i am always highly aware of period typical writing and can remember the context etc etc but sometimes.#sometimes it truly. truly does drive me up the wall. especially when other characters have been capable of not being That Level#of infantalizing. again foggy still isn't much better in a lot of respects he is just as capable of and has been as infantilizing#and insulting as karen has been. for sure. on multiple occassions. no questions asked. but i dont think he does it to the extent karen does#as in we dont see it on page just as much. it's just a bit less. so we see karen focus on it far more. to an almost exaggerated extent#part of that is the romance plot of ohhh i cannot possibly love a blind man while foggy is matt;s best friend of many years#so of course it will be in the way of the stan lee and old romance comics schools of writing that this goes down and is written like this.#of course we see her focus on it a touch more in a different way bc she's still getting to know matt and hasnt witnessed him#for about like a decade(? they met in undergrad right?) function on his own the way foggy has. but jesus christ man. good god.#at a certain point even with the period time context it does just still leave a bad taste. at certain points it becomes less eye roll#and far more maddening and hard to push down. bc it is gross. no matter what time period it is.#again. both of them are pretty disrespectful towards matt about it at this point even if mostly in their inner monologues or dialogues#with each other and not super to matt's face about it every time. but still. sometimes karen drives me far more crazy about it than foggy.#becase at least foggy can in fact recognize every now and then. matt is a perfectly capable grown man who can function and thrive.#and is someone who lives independently but also can know how to get assistance when needed.#while karen at this point has never really once given matt the benefit of that assumption despite witnessing his capabilities.#because even with his act of trying to fit the image ppl have of him. he still functions within that! and shows he can do things!#and ask for help when he needs it! even within his act of making himself smaller and quieter for others.#he's still like. adult man who lives his life. and does stuff on his own time.#i cant really speak about matt on any more deeper level than that in regards to his disabilities. i am not disabled.#i only speak as a reader and someone watching what these characters do and have proven to be able to do and how they act.#so i can only talk about karen and foggy's behaviors and attitudes in that regard.#and also as a person with like. basic understanding of other ppl living their lives. that all ppl live their own damn lives however it is#like most ppl on planet earth.#i apologize if any of my wording here is bad or if i dont talk on it well as none of this in the real world stuff is my lived experience#and you are free to go hey. incorrect. think about that or word that differently.#ok i promise im done now it's just. EUGH. UGH!!!!!#static.soundz

Opinion on the idea of role-swap AU where everyone only swaps one random trait per pair? (like say, Audrey is the one who stayed in Paris while Andre dipped but its still very much regular Audrey. Or Shoto going to Aldera instead of Katsuki)
Honestly we have plenty of AU ideas that stem from 'character A does something different/Character A and B swap roles'.
#actually that *shoto at Aldera* one is driving me insane#because while it would never happen because (as the next Road to Hell chapter shows) Enji is not touching that district with a ten foot pol#it would fix so many problems#shoto befriends Izuku half out of genuine Izuku and the power of friendship and half because he thinks it'll spite his dad#shoto is confused because enji doesn't care about Izuku's lack of Quirk and is just answering every one of Izuku's rapidfire questions#(because enji's focus on the family's quirks was for a specific purpose not some prejudiced bullshit)#(izuku being an All Might fan might annoy him but Enji gets why the population likes All Might so he's not too bothered)#Either Shoto decides to use this for good and/or Fuyumi is doing some TA shit and finds out about the bullying#and they go *hey dad as a Hero I'm sure you could do something about this* and whoops a rain of hellfire on the school staff#On the flipside Inko finds out about the abuse and flips on Enji because how dare he call himself a Hero but act like That™#(she may or may not throw a chair at him because damn it reoccurring theme)#tbh once confronted by an adult who knows the situation is fucked and can point out the wrongness of it from every direction?#It's actually pretty easy for him to back down on some of that and unpack a chunk of trauma
