idk how joe rogan is going to manipulate words like "north koreans have to push the only train in their country to get anywhere" to smear her image when the usamerican right fucking loves her. she is not a victim she was part of the elite in the dprk and is now a symbol of the usamerican conservative movement. be serious that is a grown ass woman who knows what she's doing

i'm always happy to be a tumblr phannie but especially now because whether or not dan and phil actually swap out twitter for bluesky has virtually zero impact on us. like if it was a tumblr alternative i would be ending it all but this is just like, oh cool another app to kind of use sometimes 👍

In my Arab region (I can't speak for the others, but I'm pretty sure they have similar things. Add your stuff if you do!) Coffee time is kind of sacred and is tightly regulated with heavy traditional rules. Especially so for the male populace.

Coffee makes the man! (Literally, I can't stress this enough)

Men and women alike are trained from a very young age on how to make and serve their coffee. A coffee with a good colour is a bright sign for your guests, and the way you serve is very telling of you.

Doors are ALWAYS open for guests, and HUGE halls are prepared to accommodate them (they can reach hundreds, depending on your dad's popularity). A household's head is a very blessed man when he has children/grandchildren because he can brag about them by showing their serving skills off. Those children will be scrutinised and judged according to their coffee serving manners. It's a very integral part of a charming character's traits for us. So, parents, especially fathers, are very strict about this.

Aside from guests, families have daily coffee time for themselves, too! It's very respectful to serve your mom and dad coffee. So it's expected from you.

Considering Ra's personality, serving him coffee as a grandson would be a nightmare.

Imagine Damian refilling the finjaan again and again in front of an elegantly sitting Ra's until he gets it right? Imagine him waiting (while standing, maybe for an hour or so) for Ra's to finish his finjaan so he can refill it again? Imagine how LIVID Ra's would be when Damian accidentally fills the finjaan to the top (a message that says, are you satisfied, yet? Get out! In my region) imagine Ra's asking Damian to serve coffee for his villain allies?!! Arabs and non?? And imagine people getting to know and hear about him from his coffee serving, like a good Arab son, before they know him from his sword?

Also, when he finally lives in the manor and sunset arrives and Batman is sitting by the batcomputer, deeply focused, and then is surprised by a finjaan presented to him because it's coffee time?

Damian would be very confident and proud of his coffee making and serving skills he would expect from Bruce nothing but sipping and asking for a refill, because his father should know his manners.

Bruce would know nothing about this but would, of course, sip (not drink! Drinking bad!!!) without question, and will continue to accept and sip every. Single. Day before patrol without knowing what is happening but going along with it because he's pretty sure this is Damian's way of bonding.

Which is not really true because Damian is only performing his duty as a son. He never really understood the core meaning behind this tradition because for a long time now, the art of Arabian Coffee was only a skill that was expected from him and a part of showing good grace. But as days pass and the number of people being served coffee increases and coffee time becomes a routine before each patrol for the whole family, when dates and snacks and small talk and occasional laughter join in, the very meaning behind this tradition clicks with him, and he serves it with a smile.

I need to know that y'all know what is going on right now.

I need y'all to understand that today there was a rally outside of the US Treasury Building to protest Elon Musk and DOGE's actions at the Treasury. I need y'all to know that there were Democrat Congresspeople out there in the streets, rallying together the protesters, unafraid to use words like fascism and dictator, literally leading chants to shut down the Senate. They were focused. They were passionate. They sent their best out and they kicked fucking ass.

I need y'all to understand that things are incredibly. Fucking. Serious right now. And I need y'all to call your goddamn representatives and put the fear of God in their hearts because if they don't get in there and slow every single thing that comes through the Senate down, I am not exaggerating, it is going to be incredibly hard to come back from this.

This is the time. This is when we need to move. There is a protest happening tomorrow in the capital of every major city. If you're ready to go, then get ready for it.

There is a horror in that moment

The kind that makes most folks look away

That moment

When you realize

The Pain

Will not be stopping.

I'm writing a book in which

The main character goes through the same thing

And I'm stuck because

How do you write a scene like that?

Where do you put it in the story?

When does it finally dawn on him?

Not only the knowledge that

dancing

running

skipping

jumping

walking

fucking

working

adventuring

Living

will never be the same.

But when will it dawn on him that his last day of painlessness was months ago, and he didn't even know it at the time? (didn't even get to say goodbye)

Maybe that's why they say dawn breaks.

Maybe I'm stuck because I've never seen it anywhere else.

(maybe that's why I felt all alone in my mourning)

(maybe that's why I'm writing a book)

I've never seen a story where there were days of pain and days of ease, and then the days without pain got fewer and fewer until one day, it was just

Pain.

And of course my character, he waits

And waits

And waits

And works

And searches

And begs

And pleads

And yet the rest of his life

Suddenly stretches before him

Horrifically long, unthinkably long, with the knowledge that, from now on,

Every Day Will Be A Pain Day.

Every second

Of every minute

Of every hour day week month year

For forever

For forever

For forever

For forever

For forever

For forever

For forever

How many scenes do I write

of him mourning?

And - before he finds the acceptance that even allows for mourning -

How many scenes of that horrific slow-sudden frantic-panicked suspicion of the truth?

How does one draw (it's a graphic novel) the face of a man (his name is David)

struck with that kind of strangling grief?that choking half-denial?

That silent scream of horror given sound?

How many people tell him they are sure it will be fine even as he feels himself falling further?

How many of them fail to understand until they are gone from his life?

How many times does he blame himself?

How many times is he right?

Don't get me wrong

It's a hopeful story

Really.

It has a happy ending

And that happy ending happens

On a pain day.

I just hope I can tell my story good enough to show

What that means and

Why it matters.

I just hope we can be seen.

made a ref sheet for my dark urge, esper, in response to the deluge of bullshit i've drawn about them, and in anticipation of further bullshit to come. they're a nonbinary drow half-elf, they're a college of swords bard with 3 levels in assassin rogue -- definitely not the most ethical of resist!durges, since they do still solve most of their problems with murder, fear, and manipulation (it's what they're good at! a gift is a gift) but they do have standards, and they're trying their best to do right by their friends.

'Archetropes aren't alterhuman, that's normal human experience '.

No. It's normal human experience to feel that you fit an archetype or trope. It's normal human experience to have a favourite archetype or trope and gravitate towards characters who display it or even try to display it in yourself or your OCs.

It's not really going to be considered normal if you say you are the embodiment of that archetype or trope, partially or completely. Or if you identify with it in such an intense way that it completely shapes the entirety of your being including possibly your therio/kin/fictotypes.

It's not generally regarded as average to see yourself not exactly as a person but as an archetype of a person, a trope of a person. To the side of being human because you are a concept and apply to humans but you are still basically just a concept with a body. That's alterhuman.

Duo name suggestions for Etho & Grian

Diaster duo.

Bad idea duo.

Should not interact duo.

Seriously they should not interact duo.

Caused the destruction of the server in one session duo.

Some combination of warden and wither. Ex: warther, widen.

Summon or summoner duo. Since they summoned the wither and warden.

Boss duo. Since you know boss mobs.

I don't watch Etho so it's really hard to come up with names duo.

Plus it has to be one word or it's not catchy duo

Some combination of nether and ruins?

Destroyer duo.

[gu6chan]

i've been relistening to the older soundtrack and it pains me to say that the new anime adaptation music makes me feel like i'm watching a slice of life series. idk if it's just the nostalgia speaking through me but it sounds just so artifical and soulless. i miss iwasaki taku and his trip hop!!!! he landed the vibes perfectly

Initially sent: 06/05/25 at 18:09

I intended for this to be like a 2-3 paragraph answer but got WAY too involved with it so it's under a read more to save any unfortunate soul passing by from all that scrolling 😭

Answered this quickly just so you can come back and see this anon bc I don't dabble much in kuro anymore these days and Tumblr likes to not notify ppl if they send things anonymously for some reason so I don't expect you to suddenly remember spending this ask and coming back to see it answered seven months from now 😭 however there is a LOT i wanna say so expect like 1 million updates and edits to this post down the line (days, weeks.... iunno 👀)

But YEAH NO EXACTLYYYYY I LITERALLY USED THE WORD "SOULLESS" TO DESCRIBE IT ALL THE TIME BACK IN THE DAY AND HELD BACK ON USING IT SPECIFICALLY SO I DIDN'T PISS PEOPLE OFF BUT THAT'S EXACTLY IT!!!! Like i said i can't speak on the public school arc/emerald witch arc osts because i never watched any of those (though the trailer music was.... eugh i VERY clearly remember that DID NOT like it, literally the second it came on i immediately noticed it and paused it like 🤨?????)

And it's like, in the public school arc i WOULD expect (or at least forgive, rather) a more slice of life vibe simply because that's.... really how it felt (note: that arc specifically was the full turning point i went from "black butler is so awesome and cool and perfect 😍✨🧚‍♂️💕" to "....you know, im kinda not enjoying this anymore" that the noahs arc circus and luxury cruiser arc had started to plant in my brain) but also like!!!!

generally speaking from the yasunori era that i DO know, a lot of what I feel MAKES it feel so ..... Boring? In comparison is that it feels REALLY constrained and par for the course of what you'd expect a "Victorian" anime to sound like, like??? How do i say it

Iwasaki just felt more like he was aiming more to capture the "feeling" of black butler and it's tone and story where Yasunori feels like he's trying to capture the setting, and it just comes off extraordinarily restrained as a result. like the reason you can have really bad engrish rap verses and triphop and THEN switch back to opera and then more orchestral/classical pieces and have it work is because that's what its meant to do!!! It's specifically meant to add to whatever feeling is trying to be conveyed by the scene and the emotions in it, where with season three onwards (and ironically, this is the same issue i have with the nier/dod3 soundtrack, ANOTHER series commonly boasted by its fanbase as being the better part but i just personally don't care for at all) it just feels impersonal. It doesn't feel like it's trying to capture a feeling as it's portrayed in a specific scene or sense, but more like just writing the word "sad moment" on a piece of paper and going "that's it i did it im a master of tragedy" it's too focused on hitting the specific chords and using the specific instruments than it really should be concerned with just.... throwing all that out the window to make ppl FEEL something imo

Another HUGE gripe I have with the current state of the Kuro soundtrack is that if i have to hear one more Generic Orchestral Soundtrack to Show This is The 19th Century (Young Master and Clear the Table is the exact kinda style im talking about) I'm going to RIOT LIKE I KNOW THIS IS THE NINETEENTH CENTURY I KNOWWWWWW IS THE SHOW ITSELF NOT MAKING THAT PERFECTLY CLEAR???? WHAT IS THE SOUNDTRACK ADDING TO THAT CONTEXT. WHY DO WE HAVE TO ESTABLISH THIS THROUGH THE SOUNDTRACK LITERALLY WHAT PURPOSE DOES ALL THAT EFFORT INTO SOUNDING "TECHNICALLY CORRECT" SERVE

and the worst part is iwasaki taku even did THAT and he had more sauce to it with operatic tracks like Cena D'Amore, Wie Schön and Tornado Nero speaking literal full german and italian for WHAT??? literally do you know how many autistic german middle schoolers lives were changed by that (🙋‍♀️)

Crossing, Thorny, whatever else idk i forget half the tracks names past season two go hard as fuck in composition solely because, in the formers case particularly, they were willing to be more experimental but they take me and out of it so bad bc they're all spoken in GIBBERISH and for literally what reason???? we used to be eating so good i hate the Japanese gibberish language craze i hate it hate it hate it hate it HATE IT (though i hesitate to say this in full confidence solely bc i don't speak a lick of hindi Nor do I know anything about hindi-style music and don't know whether the tracks used in the indian butler arc of S1 ARE authentic hindi or are similarly just bollywood hiphop-style gibberish. has anyone said anything on this or the Lizzie soundtrack because i wanna know what those whispers are saying so bad ....)

It's just OUGHHHHHH we were eating so good!!!!!! 😭 ALSO THE REPEAT SOUNDTRACKS ARE ABYSMAL i SWEAR listening to the OST of S3, BoM OVA and then the movie back to back and hearing Fantasia and Sweet Tears and Annoying Visitor get redone 20 million times felt so bland and lazy to me like 😭😭😭 come ON the worst we had it in S1-S2 was like. two one-time uses of si deus me relinquit (The piano version and then piano + cello which similarly makes me want to die when i remember those variations never got officially released....) and two versions of the slightly chipped full moon (Cruelly Eyes and Made by 3 Seconds, the latter i don't think was even officially played anywhere in Season 2??? But it's been almost 10 years since I've last watched it in full so i could be wrong)

I was GONNA say Cena D'Amore and spiders thread (Same with Ciel and Si Deus Me Relinquit) but using a leitmotif ≠ the song with different instruments so they're safe i would think :}

But MAN. The biggest thing for me is how if you played literally ANY track from the OST made by Iwasaki Taku i could literally track back to the exact moment it played (Nevermore with Ciel and the vision of his parents and how it turned into Si Deus Me Relinquit, SIMILARLY the piano version used towards the end of episode 10 with the hope diamond, cello version used in episode 16, little lady 1 and 2 and the white stag, A GLEAM IN THE DISTANCE AND THE EXACT MOMENTS ENGLISH DUB "and what about Pluto?" "...I'll collect his bones later." the list goes on and on and on...) where i can't really even place my favourite tracks from Yasunori???? Like. Sweet Tears and Fantasia played close to each other in the same episode i think im pretty sure lol

And I definitely admit a good bit of bias there solely because i used to watch seasons 1 and 2 religiously back when I was still into Black Butler, but — and this is the thing i got absolutely HOUNDED for back in the day — that's because season three onwards was boring as FUCK 😭

And tbh that's another thing i get really boomerish about!! I really just do prefer seasons one and two for the reason they were willing to have fun with the series premise. "Boy makes a contract with a demon to get revenge on his parents killers". Like what happens if his killer someone he swore his service to (To the manga's merit, it kinda looks like it's shaping up in a similar way from what ive heard lol)? What if Ciel was faced with the chance to let his hatred go and be allowed to live his life, and what circumstances would provoke Sebastian to break the contract off? What if there was someone there for Ciel acting as a foil/the parental figure Sebastian isn't? What other stories could be told working off the same premise, and that's not even getting into the insane soul blending contract stuff season two pulled off.

I didn't realise it then, but I'm retrospect Black Butler is an extremely campy series to the point that any missed opportunity to really play and have fun with it's premise and "rules" in so many ways just ends up reading as extremely impassionate and boring to me — it's a missed opportunity exactly. It started to break out of its formula a of "Boy and demon solve cases together and boy howdy, does it end up differently then they expect!!!!! Rinse and repeat" a little when i had officially left it behind for good, but the fact I don't really care for the more science-fictiony direction they took with the German military and bizzare dolls and mustard gas and all that aside, any BIG break away from it's formula came way too late for me to really gaf 😭 plus i didn't care for twin ciel even when it was still a theory, seasons one and two spoiled me by playing with its basic premise enough to where i was like "you can do so much with what you already HAVE why are you adding MORE" plus the multiple year long flashbacks DEFINITELY didn't help lmao

Plot consistency is definitely one thing when it comes to the original anime (seriously, what the FUCK was the deal with Drocell and that monkey from EP21??? what the hell even ended up happening to the original alois trancy, there's SO much and it all keeps me up at night even to this day) , but tbh the fact it was willing to explore so many different sides and aspects of characters by challenging them with situations you couldn't see in the manga and just allow itself to have fun was what made me fall in love with black butler to begin with!!! I'll never forget my disappointment and pettiness of being taken on the ride that was the original anime, hearing the resounding tidal wave of "read the manga, it's better" and thinking 'wow, that will be hard to top!!! This must be pretty good then :)' only to read it and be like "these people are boring as hell why are they just doing the same things over and over" 😭 like i don't CARE about ciels real name or he has a twin or that the undertakers this evil mastermind or any of that shit i just want all the numerous plot holes from the original series to be resolved wtf.....

I ALSO wanna bring attention to the way the art direction just got massacred after season two but idk I've rambled long enough and plan to rewatch seasons 1+2 sometimes so i just might make a separate post and bitch about it there (with photos!!!!) but if i do that ill be sure to link it to this post!!! ;0 this ended up way longer than i expected lmao thank you for allowing me to tap about my old hyperfixation and get this off my chest!!! I've bitched about Season 1+2 superiority SO much in the past but never really had any solid words to put it in beyond "the vibes went harder" lmao, so being able to really dig into the nuances of it now that I know a bit more about what I'm talking about feels better than I actually ever imagined it would ��💕 i feel like im putting the spirit of bitter 15 year old me who so excitedly looked forward to seeing black butler three when it was announced only to be met with crushing shock and disappointment upon starting the first episode to rest now that i get to yap about it with someone who even remotely understands, even if it is just on this singular point 😅 thanks so much!!!
