i feel so sick and betrayed
by the summers of my childhood
by the heat and the grass that had made no promises to me
a hazy memory is all
remnants of siblings, stones, and salt air
tangled by the shadowy sheets and scissors
between my thighs and under my skin
a new sensation
one that confirms the end of my joy
marked and grief and
good things taken for granted
no one told me when it would all be lost
i would have liked a warning
yet on a random august afternoon
the sunshine finally showed her true face
and slipped biting beneath the table
to hide once again
i opened my own pantry and found missing
several essential ingredients
i've been robbed in small amounts
i didn't see until too late
all of the stores had closed for good
not even the seeds remained for me
to raise those summer vegetables
and no one had taught me how
#poem#poetry#creative writing#writing#poets on tumblr#original poem#writers and poets#self h@rm#divorce#also i just want to say that i only wrote this because i'm in a bad mood because it's christmas and the first one where my parents#are separated#so it's very new and i'm sad#but i'm okay#and i'll be okay#but i do wish i could go back to when it was summer and i was in my grandmother's garden with her straw hat on my head#watching bugs and flowers and harvesting beans#it was simpler then#and i wish i savored it more

(YES HAHAHA YES!!!)
#dragon age#veilguard#dragon age the veilguard#lucanis dellamorte#rook#rookanis#spite dragon age#nazeeh mercar#da4#userpharawee#SO WHAT IF I DID#I love that funky little demon okay#also I just deleted a bunch of salty tags because I don't want to be too negative about a thing I enjoy#so I'll just say that I wish spite had been included more.#both in the romance as well as lucanis' arc in general#there is just so much potential there and barely any of it was used#ah well

the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"
just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible
#due to the Great Data Decay academics write viciously argumentative articles on which episodes aired in what order#at conferences professors have known to engage in physically violent altercations whilst debating the air date number of household viewers#90% of the couch gags have been lost and there is a billion dollar trade in counterfeit “lost copies”#serious note: i'll be honest i always assumed it was english imperialism that made shakespeare so inescapable in the 19th/20th cent#like his writing should have become obscure at the same level of his contemporaries#but british imperialists needed an ENGLISH LANGUAGE (and BRITISH) writer to venerate#and shakespeare wrote so many damn things that there was a humongous body of work just sitting there waiting to be culturally exploited...#i know it didn't happen like this but i imagine a English Parliament House Committee Member For The Education Of The Masses or something#cartoonishly stumbling over a dusty cobwebbed crate labelled the Complete Works of Shakespeare#and going 'Eureka! this shall make excellent propoganda for fabricating a national identity in a time of great social unrest.#it will be a cornerstone of our elitist educational institutions for centuries to come! long live our decaying empire!'#'what good fortune that this used to be accessible and entertaining to mainstream illiterate audience members...#..but now we can strip that away and make it a difficult & alienating foundation of a Classical Education! just like the latin language :)'#anyway maybe there's no such thing as the 'greatest writer of x language' in ANY language?#maybe there are just different styles and yes levels of expertise and skill but also a high degree of subjectivity#and variance in the way that we as individuals and members of different cultures/time periods experience any work of media#and that's okay! and should be acknowledged!!! and allow us to give ourselves permission to broaden our horizons#and explore the stories of marginalized/underappreciated creators#instead of worshiping the List of Top 10 Best (aka Most Famous) Whatevers Of All Time/A Certain Time Period#anyways things are famous for a reason and that reason has little to do with innate “value”#and much more to do with how it plays into the interests of powerful institutions motivated to influence our shared cultural narratives#so i'm not saying 'stop teaching shakespeare'. but like...maybe classrooms should stop using it as busy work that (by accident or designs)#happens to alienate a large number of students who could otherwise be engaging critically with works that feel more relevant to their world#(by merit of not being 4 centuries old or lacking necessary historical context or requiring untaught translation skills)#and yeah...MAYBE our educational institutions could spend less time/money on shakespeare critical analysis and more on...#...any of thousands of underfunded areas of literary research i literally (pun!) don't know where to begin#oh and p.s. the modern publishing world is in shambles and it would be neat if schoolwork could include modern works?#beautiful complicated socially relevant works of literature are published every year. it's not just the 'classics' that have value#and actually modern publications are probably an easier way for students to learn the basics. since lesson plans don't have to include the#important historical/cultural context many teens need for 20+ year old media (which is older than their entire lived experience fyi)

*after the events of the odyssey*
*telemachus and odysseus walking down to the docks, after odysseus said he'd go sailing with his son*
(listen the man had missed 20 years of his son's life, he could ask ody to dress in drag & do the hula and odysseus would already be shouting "LUAU" in a grass skirt before tele finished his sentence)
telemachus: i'm so excite- *looks ahead*
telemachus: *stops walking* oh no *sad noises*
odysseus: *still walking* what's wrong son?
telemachus: *points to the sea beyond ithaca's shores* poseidon must be angry today, look at the storm in the distance
odysseus: *looks ahead but without worry on his face* no need to worry, we can still go sailing, follow me
telemachus: *confused but follows his dad*
*both make it to the docks*
odysseus: you get started, i've just got something to do & then i'll join you on the ship
*telemachus hops on the ship and odysseus turns to face the sea*
odysseus: *red eyes activate* i'm. going. sailing. with . my. son.
*the sea storm dissipates in record speed*
odysseus: good.
odysseus: *red eyes deactivate*
odysseus: *turns to telemachus smiling like nothing happened* shall we go then?
telemachus: *happy but very confused*
telemachus: *mumbling to himself*what just happened?
(this has now become its own little au! friends in higher places au masterlist here!)
#if you listen closely you could hear a whimper from the sea the minute ody activated divine rage#nothing will stop him spending time with his son#poseidon: see the storm has gone! ... please don't stab me#athena is back in the palace with penelope#weaving a new tapestry (family photo) together#odysseus epic#poseidon epic#telemachus#epic the musical#epic: the musical#crack#it came to me in a dream okay#epic the musical spoilers#epic spoilers#?#is it spoilers?#i don't wanna be yelled at so i'll put spoilers

I feel like I have some of the most random headcanons. but I am lowkey obsessed with the fact that John Dory is so much older than Branch that he potentially could have dated their friends'/peers' parents, and/or anything else funny and possibly entertaining that the large age difference entails lmaokskssbcdsbcjdh
edit: part two
#trolls#dreamworks trolls#(I headcanon that JD is 18 years older than Branch)#branch does not compute all that that entails lmao#also the possibility that he could have been getting bullied by his nephew lmao#okay okay i'll stop#my art#trolls branch#trolls poppy#broppy#trolls john dory#john dory#trolls creek#trolls oc#freesia#every one of my troll posts so far has an oc yay yippe :P#brozone#trolls band together#trolls spoilers#i guess#trolls comic#comic#trolls fanart#that second panel branch is so in love and i am so in love with the fact#and then the third panel poppy is so in love and i'm just GYAAAAHHH 🥺🥺🥺

people who are complaining about chappell setting boundaries and asking for privacy with "she's not ready to be a pop girlie yet" make me so mad. why does she have to tolerate harrasment and stalking to be a pop girlie? why is your definition for a pop girlie of someone whose private life is all out in open for you to dissect? why should you have access to her family? why should she be someone who has to nod, smile and say yes to whatever you want fuck off maybe
#i've said this before i'll say it again not everyone wants to have parasocial relationship with their fans there's a reason she has a#separate indentity when she makes art just because the bigger artists have been doing it and it's okay with them doesn't mean#every new growing artist or even the established one want it too stay away jfc#shouldn't have opened twitter lol#chappell roan#chappellsource

I need this image for unimportant purposes but it's still one of my favorite pre-canon pieces. Marcille losing her tomato slice with basically the first bite. Laios holding a rat. Toshiro so smitten with laughing Falin that he doesn't notice the man-eating plant going for Laios and Chilchuck at once. Namari, lost in her stretches, completely oblivious to the forest goblins descending via rope. The random ass lizard. Just fun
#dungeon meshi#... yeah okay i'll tag everyone#marcille donato#falin touden#namari#laios touden#chilchuck tims#toshiro nakamoto#this too is farcille to me. a lil

should've just let Vil be the one to fly, it would've gone SO much easier. 😔
also HEY how are everyone else's pulls going, because I have had the most RIDICULOUS luck, seriously, halloween magic is 100% real
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#lost in the book with nightmare before christmas#hajimari no halloween#kicking around some ideas for scully's UM poster so i'll talk about all that when we get to it#in the meantime i just have to show this off because...seriously look at it#is the halloween pickup count cumulative?! because i only did two ten-pulls for jamil...#i've only done three ten-pulls total in this event and yet somehow ended up with leona and two consecutive jamils#now it would be extremely funny if i didn't get sebek when he's the one i want the most...but let me hope#(i choose to believe this is an apology from the universe for my lack of both fairy gala ortho and masquerade malleus)#(thank you universe)#anyway i realize there is some irony in bragging about my jamil pulls and yet drawing vil instead#but...i just really wanted to draw nightmare vil okay#i thought i had posted art of good ol' pumpkin-stroker jamil already but i think i might actually have just dreamt that#brb gotta get onto fixing this problem
