A tiktok comment from 2022 basically summed up how I feel about you're welcome vs blue
"Blue trusts the audience to have common sense and know that SA is bad, while You're Welcome has to spell it out"
#i like both songs by the way#but heathers is a dark comedy. its satire.#its why i dont like when people sum it up as blue being from k&r's perspectives while yw is from veronicas#its just not really true#blue is making fun of guys that will pressure and harass and guilt trip girls into sex by saying they have blue balls#which is a very real thing lol#while i love that youre welcome adds veronicas perspective into it#her verses are my favorite of the songs#and it still keeps the comedy#it also doesnt really stay true to the satircal core of the musical and movie#it also kicks out duke and mac which is. sigh#it makes those two more malicious i think than they actuallt are. they didnt WANT v to be raped#they wanged themselves NOT to be raped#and thags the difference#its a deeply interesting character flaw of theirs that is often overlooked#the self preservation. the commentary on how girls will often throw each other under the bus to save themselves#oh also a lot of pieple will say that blue makes fun of rape and yw doesnt but i think its the oppisite tbh? not that either of them rlly d#but blue is making fun of the guys specifically. yw doesnt rlly do that it moreso makes fun of the situation (daterape) itself#do i think duke and mac shouldve opened the door for ronnie? yes obviously.#is it in character that they didnt? also yes#anyways. lol#heathers#do not take my word fkr this tho this is my interpretation and i am just a sad teen girl

(nature au) you said that while dale dislikes dev using a cane in the house he doesn’t really care too much, but what if dev used a cane in public? i can’t imagine dale would be okay with that at all. he’d be pissed, like confiscate the cane kind of pissed
Originally the gag here was just going to be Dev clinging onto his dads arm for dear life while he shivers like a chihuahua but he is just. So small.. I couldnt get it to look reasonable
Bonus:
#The horror of putting Dev in a situation where he would 100% be wearing his sunglasses#Like NOOO the perfectly construction expression of horror I was going to give him#fop nature au#fop#fairly oddparents#fop a new wish#fairly oddparents a new wish#fop dev#dev dimmadome#dale dimmadome#fop dale#fop peri#art#digital art#fanart#I cant tell if I got the tone right with this one#Theres a very careful balance I try to strike with comedy vs horror and Im not sure if I got it#I also try to keep a sort of balance when depicting characters that are just straight up awful#I dont like depicting characters as cartoonishly evil but I also dont want to make him seem overly sympathetic#or like he's 'deep down a good person' because he's straight up not#He's awful and selfish. What he's done to his son makes him deeply uncomfortable with himself#but that discomfort means absolutely nothing when he refuses to change or become a better person#and he does refuse to change. changing is hard#he still keeps hurting Dev at every turn and maybe to tries to justify it to himself as being for Devs own good#but regardless he is still refusing to listen to him and hurting him even more in the process#idk im rambling#I like to keep the abuse balanced out with these nothing little concessions on Dales part#tbh even this concession didnt come from the good of his heart he just wanted to avoid making a scene#also because the visual of Dale deciding CARRYING him everywhere is better than just letting him have his cane is very funny to me

oh btw, that "girlboss with parental issues talks shit about how awful men are all the time" trope that rachel relies on like crack is in her official wonder woman comic too-
"someone you know" is superman. they're talking about american boy scout superman. he is an arrogant muscle bound thug for no reason other than because he is a man. and he looks like hades here. i'm so tired-
#plus again the plot of this still makes no sense#diane is looking for superman because reasons#circe turned him into a hamster because reasons#circe and wonder woman talk about how awful men and their dads are because reasons#circe hands superman over to wonder woman because reasons#“isn't it awful how men are constantly taking away women's bodily autonomy!” - rachel who keeps taking away men's autonomy for comedy#does wolfy know about these transgressions against supreme baby girl odysseus#lore olympus critical#anti lore olympus#lo critical

anyway my major criticism of ep 5 is that they should have put eddie with hen and put chim in the buck curse plot, and it would have been both funnier and more poignant
#911#i will be honest i really Do Not enjoy the vibe of eddie and tommy and buck together and that is part of it#but also sticking eddie in the comedy plot right now feels weird & having buck and chim wind each other up would have been much funnier imo#you can still have eddie providing exasperated and skeptical color commentary#and tommy being baffled and just trying to keep up with the madness

hello. um. sorry for disappearing for like two months. imagine me getting hit with a truck called “The Worst Creative Block In Your Life” and getting thrown headfirst into the gintama rabbit hole. it’s quite cozy down here. i think i need help.
anyways, have a bunch of accumulated doodles plus this terrifying kagura as apology tehe :3
#well tbh the trigun fandom kinda burned me out as well#i couldn’t really keep up so i just. didn’t lol#kinda hated drawing for a bit after that but gintama’s been really good for me in that way#while i still really really wanna draw for it and i have a ton of doodles for it#i don’t really feel the need to keep up in a sense#i can just enjoy it at my own pace#(at my own pace being binging like 10 episodes a day)#but hey i need to at least try and take it easy before college yk#but now im horrifically attached to the entire cast and will cry if this so called comedy series even becomes a hint emotional#so you know#the usual#thanks for sticking around regardless!#i know i kinda flip flop a bunch between interests#but im glad to know you guys still wanna stick with me through them all#ily <3#sakata gintoki#kagura#shimura shinpachi#yorozuya#gintama#ok bye

this is gonna be such a bog standard joelguy post but anyone ever think about how so many of joels recent-ish duos are so. snappy. comparing him to fire is overdone but whenever he's with someone they legitimately do just get on like a house on fire. every dynamic he's in they're always just biting at each other. pearl iskall gem etho shane fwhip even sausage to an extent. not to mention jimmy oli lizzie and scott. what is his Deal
#smallishbeans#joel smallishbeans#life series#hermitcraft#trafficblr#hermitblr#im kidding i know exactly what his deal is. it's just the normal effects of having a sarcastic jokingly egoistic comedy persona#like obviously his for-fun interactions would be snarky as hell that's his entire Bit#still. i think it's fun to overdramatize it and it's really funny to me that he keeps doing his bit w similar people which locks him into#a feedback loop where they just try to endlessly one-up each other#maybe overdone but im not complaining! sometimes it ends up with him calling a guy his wife or a guy calling joel a wife so. happy days#sometimes theres even mpreg#zml#zbait

Why is the anime so weird, it's not even the same series dude?? It's like,
Anime:
GOKU: I have a great idea to bring peace to the universe, and my leadership and compassion alone will unite us all. I have No Flaws and am A True Relatable Everyman :)
VEGETA: NO! I AM THE BEST AND I WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS UNTIL I AM RECOGNIZED AS SUCH!!!!
Manga:
GOKU: Vegeta what's cornmeal made of? I know it's what the corn eats, but what's it made of? VEGETA: Hey Kakarot let's play the quiet game until one of us dies.
#dbtag#I do not understand this writing it's so bad aklsdlkasjd#Toei wants Goku to be Clark Kent SO bad and he SO isn't lmao#they're so good and dumb and rounded and complex in the manga what is the anime so afraid of#Toriyama said 'no no this man is a detached faux-immortal who has a dear pure heart but he's childlike and selfish even though he's kind'#and toei went 'got it goku's never done anything wrong ever in his life'#toriyama said 'Vegeta's gone through a lot and he's finally settling into his more mature leadership role with the confidence he's earned'#and toei said 'got it vegeta has the confidence of a high school bully except now he can interact with his family as a comedy bit'#girl hWHAT#Toei trying to group Goku and Vegeta as two people who would rather train than be with their families and Toriyama said NO Vegeta wants#to be HOME this is the first time in years that he's HAD ONE and it makes him HAPPY to be with his wife and children!!#Vegeta trains so that he can protect the things he doesn't want to lose again and Goku trains because it's the thing that makes him happies#They are NOT the same lmao And yeah Vegeta still wants to beat Goku but he also knows that Gohan could dogwalk both of them if he wanted#He also knows Trunks and Goten are going to surpass them it's not about being the best anymore he's past that he just wants to Not Need Gok#He just doesn't want to have to rely on Goku to save the day he wants to be Enough on his own he just wants to know he can be#because every time it's mattered he WASN'T and people he loved were lost to his inability to protect them and he carries that#Like Whis diagnosed him with anxiety and cptsd out in the open and Beerus said he was self-centered for feeling guilt#+ he lowkey enjoys the rivalry it keeps him goal-oriented so he can't get complacent and lazy which is what triggered his Buu Saga breakdow#realized how Fucked Up it was that having a home and loving family made him feel like he was failing and went 'wait no I won actually??'#now he's chill as fuck in the manga. cool confident leader.#and sometimes he is childish and dumb with Goku as a treat#you know what rocks about his rivalry with Goku in Super though is that it's Playful. Vegeta is learning how to Play.#You ever seen a shelter dog get introduced to a really playful dog and it takes a minute for the shelter dog to understand it's safe here#And then they're both running around the backyard playing hot potato with one braincell?? That's Goku and Vegeta's relationship#and the way the anime sleeps on that dynamic is so fucking criminal especially when it's literally canon it's in print it's out there#you had the playbook how'd you fumble it this bad#anyway that's my 25+ year blorbo thoughts I love Geets a lot okay#And I love Goku in the manga a lot I'd forgotten that he's actually a great character when Toei's not fucking up his whole vibe

I've seen some Hancock/The Ghoul fanart floating around as of late and it's so good so choice but I've seen no art with The Ghoul and Raul Tejada and I can no longer allow this fandom to sleep on my emotional support geriatric. Once I'm done with my finals it's over for you fools.
#hancock and the ghoul would be friends with benefits#but raul and the ghoul would be amicable exes but things are still so weird#raul bumps into lucy and cooper somewhere in the mojave#he immidiately hits it off with lucy bc of the whole ghost vaquero/protecting those who cant protect themselves stuff#and coopers just over here#watching his pseudo-daughter toast marshmellows with his sarcastic ex-boyfriend who keeps making jabs at him#Raul and Lucy whispering and giggling to themselves while Coop is sitting right across from them knowing full well they're talking about him#the comedy potential#you guys dont understand 😔#fallout prime#fallout new vegas#fallout#fallout the series#the ghoul#cooper howard#lucy mclean#raul tejada#aug tinks

his silliness and depression have captivated me
(feat. my oc gin)
#gale dekarios#gale of waterdeep#bg3#baldur's gate 3#i have a trend of drawing more hair than they have#gin tonali#milk ocs#for those unfamiliar with my ocs. 99%#gin (in his original world) is a guy who tried to make something of himself after running away from home and ends up in a self crisis again#and returns home to repair the relationships with his family and make sense of how he was raised ingrained shit ways of thinking about#his self worth and stuff. also he was raised in the time religion#playing fun and loose with him in forgotten realms lore#he’s still a courier and the time religion has turned into a time cult but dont worry about it#hes a normal guy who wants to stop living in interesting times and is trying to not let the stress of the last few weeks hit him all at onc#and keeps doing heroic things on accident when all he wants to do is go home and lay low#how this circles back to gale is i want them to be sweet and kiss and theyre that one piece of the couple sleeping under a thick blanket#this is also the comedy of the shipname being ‘time bomb’

How it feels reading the Hornblower books expecting conventional and straightforward adventure tales about old fashioned heroism on the high seas and then you get to one of Hornblower's intrusive thoughts
#this series is a psychological horror/dark comedy. to me#like it’s patriotic in theory but i keep getting the feeling that hornblower is on the verge of snapping idk#i think the series should end with hornblower suicide bombing the admiralty#(i only just started the happy return so i still have like 6 more books to go)#hornblower

How does Chuuya not get sunburnt while flying? Or does he?
HA
Oh I haven’t thought of this. Oh good god this’ll be great.
Keep in mind Chuuya’s a ginger. His skin is more susceptible to burning, if I recall. Not to mention he has several pounds of feathers attached to him, so he’s bound to overheat.
Unless he’s wearing something revealing, and in the summer, he does a lot, he doesn’t go out during the hottest times of the day or someone will soon find a melted Chuuya popsicle on the floor.
But let’s be honest it would be HILARIOUS if Chuuya was flying around with Dazai on the beach or something and got sunburned once. I’d get a kick out of writing/reading that one.
#seriously#I would!#bsd#bungo stray dogs#chuuya nakahara#dazai osamu#soukoku#bungou stray dogs#au#dazai x chuuya#skk au#skk#bsd au#man these ideas are better than mine#I’m starting to think I know who you are….#*uses a skeptical expression*#I’ll keep it under wraps for now though#still fucking loving these asks#Chuuya getting sunburned WHILE FLYING#genius comedy there#ask challange#ask me stuff#asks#ask answered#ask#ask me anything#send asks

i am still sulking about no aster. (give me a few days and a couple watermelons and i'll be back to normal)
#i was one of the people who (after the reveal) fell to their knees in the burger king parking lot. maybe even wailed skyward for a smidge#my petty side says the silhouette tease and tagline HAD to have been intentional to get us to think of aster#my rational side says that they probably did not think that hard about it#and NO they are NOT intentionally bullying familiar fans and feeding off their betrayed tears /... i hope 😂#no ears and tail.... twink who gets burnt.... WHAT WE COULD HAVE HAD....#me 1: don't you like garu? what's the problem?#me 2: i'm CONFLICTED ok. i can like the char but still feel BITTERLY DESTROYED ABOUT LOST POTENTIAL#I NEEEED THE TRANSGRESSIOnS. THE BREAKS IN THE PATTERNS!!!!#oh if we had a familiar treated as a clan member. an aster dante quincy banner. unbelievable. the comedy of it all#i mean. at least this trio is a new combo. AND they haven't been in summer banners before...?#er. summer banners likE THIS. with the beachwear and stuff.#gaAAAHHH but tthe fact that they made it garu#MEANS THAT WIPES OUT ANY IMMINENT DREAMS OF MY TRIPLE YOKAI EVENT#aaaaaahhh. i see. THAT's what this is about#what? like they're gonna suddenly break the pattern and have an event that's JUST yakumo and kuya?#please. we have seen by now that no molds shall be broken. *pathetic sniff*#i guess we'll just keep doing the same top-bottom pairs forever...#and certain characters will never get to mingle with others because they've been SORTED#into HOLE FILLER and HOLE FILLED-EE#*rolls around on the floor in a melodramatic whiny flopfest*#LET THEM ALL ROAM FREE RAAAAAAAAAAANGE

Watching a Portal 2 playthrough a couple days ago in current year is interesting
Because the Chell/GLaDOS dynamic is at once way more overtly gay than I remember, but also way way more toxic lmao. GLaDOS definitely has feelings for Chell, but in the same way an abusive ex still has feelings. The blatant double-standards, (my attempts on your life are fine, you successfully downing me before will never be forgotten) the constant insults and gaslighting and attempts at inducing body-image issues, and so on and so forth. It gets better after the whole Wheatley turnabout but never becomes good; in particular is a moment where she defends Chell from Wheatley's fumbling attempts to emulate her insults, only to immediately undercut it with "actually all of that does apply to you and that's terrible, but I have to spite him somehow". GLaDOS sucks.
I'm not saying this to undercut the ship, mind you, because what a beautiful trashfire it is. But it is just kinda funny to realize how far my recollection had drifted from that.
#not a reblog#portal#portal 2#chelldos#glados is a petty problematic bitch#and we love her for it#but oh boy is she problematic#similarly easy to forget that Caroline was 1000% on board#with all of Cave's horribly unethical experiments#(and his classism and ableism)#up until it affected her directly#so basically thats a characterization thing to keep in mind I guess#the comedy still works#because their exaggerated terribleness is the point#but yeah

First of all, I just want to say. I called it lol
Finally an sskk face off since the sacrifice. I am going insane. I can’t articulate all my thoughts rn but something about the way Atsushi aimed a kick at Akutagawa that he fully expected the guy to block (because they know each other’s usual fighting styles!!!) only for it to connect and hurt him; Atsushi begging Akutagawa to recognize him because even if he still can’t consciously admit it, Atsushi has become convinced that Akutagawa wouldn’t be attacking him like this if he knew it was him; pleading for him to snap out of it and demanding to know why he saved him aghhhhh I’m going feral we know the reason Atsushi we know whyyyyy
I can’t believe it actually. We are at the point where sskk do not want to genuinely hurt each other. Atsushi attacked only out of self defence and was taken aback by actually breaking his wrist. Akutagawa refused to kill Atsushi in the Fukuchi fight and Atsushi is now convinced he’d stop attacking if he recognized him. Holy shit. Oh my god.
And Sigma badass moment! My boy, he pulled through! Either him or Chuuya had to break the stalemate; hell yeah, validation. Wasn’t there a meme someone made? “Prison arc -> prison arc if Sigma still had a gun”? Well Sigma’s got a gun and things are picking up babyyyy! His retort to Fyodor was quite possibly the funniest thing he could’ve said in response. Just completely shut him down. Using what he’s learned running the empty home Fyodor previously tried to buy his trust with. Beautiful. ADA Sigma real??? (I think the story will have to acknowledge his very public involvement with Taneda’s shooting and the acts of terrorism the Hunting Dogs now know he is responsible for… so I’m not sure how that will go but I’d like to see him end up with the Agency tbh… so long as it makes sense.)
Things I did not expect:
Mysterious note left in Russian??? It could be Mykola I suppose but… why? What happened? If he’s actually in trouble I doubt he’d need help escaping. Is it a trap? But what for? Alternatively… could it be Pushkin? He was in Meursault initially right? We never found out what his connection was. It could be a new Russian author too! Intriguing! There’s also the matter of it being written in Russian in the first place - who is it meant for? Sigma specifically? Or is it meant for someone else who speaks Russian?
Dazai is actually injured! I was certain he had something ready to get out on his own but I like this much better. Tbh I know this sounds bad but I’m actually way more invested now that Dazai has a broken leg and Fyodor was just shot. There’s higher stakes, you know? Damn though. I think Dazai’s injuries are. Worse. He’s being terribly self-sacrificial, and is apparently going to face off against Chuuya next time we see him. I do think now the stakes would be too low if Chuuya was completely free of the brainwashing tbh… I’m hoping for a double “I know you’re in there” fight between skk and sskk. Not that Dazai can do much physically but his strength has always been with words anyways, and I am certain Chuuya’s already fighting back. And I know Atsushi will reach Akutagawa. Manifesting sskk reunion where they challenge Fukuchi again and win this time via the power of unbreakable trust (delusional).
Sigma asks Fyodor “WHAT are you?” Which is interesting, and I’m hoping will acknowledge the way Fyodor doesn’t seem to age… but also intriguing is the “getting closer” part on the side which implies he’s not quite right. I think Fyodor will still turn out to be human tbh (it’d be weird otherwise, thematically), but now I’m starting to lend a little more weight to that theory about a Fyodor double…
Well anyways. This was a lot. I’m going to helplessly whir about it for a bit now.
#bsd#bsd spoilers#bsd chapter 107#storyrambles#I just want an incredibly homoerotic showdown between skk and sskk where Dazai and Atsushi snap their partners out#of the brainwashing so Chuuya can wreak havoc while Dazai watches him with stars in his eyes as he’s crumpled on the floor#and Akutagawa can immediately go off to fight Fukuchi so he doesn’t have to answer Atsushi who is behind him#relieved and irritated and asking him why he chose to save him on repeat#‘I am asking you a question here!’ ‘I cannot hear you jinko we have more pressing matters keep up’#aya leaning over to bram: ‘he-he’s dodging the question!’#I take my theorizing very seriously thank you very much :P#wait. Hold on. What if. What if dazai can nullify the vampire curse but only when he’s in contact.#what if chuuya has to carry him everywhere while dazai is in physical contact with him constantly. think of the comedy. think of the gay.#actually I’m going to cry that’s so funny to me. they’d be complaining about it constantly#meanwhile you just know chuuya is worried about the extent of dazai’s injuries and dazai is still livid about the mind control#hi this is unbelievably funny to me

he's so important to me
#i guess i need to watch the anime but super's manga has just been a self-indulgent fever dream for me from start to finish#100000/10 absolutely perfect so validating so extremely catered to my tastes and headcanons and analyses and humor#so fucking funny and emotional and intense and goofy and beautifully drawn#my beautiful son getting to finally fucking see his HARD won character growth fucking shine and choose love and choose to be loved!!!!!!#Goku just being Goku Vegeta being Team Dad Piccolo being Team Grandpa Bulma being a fucking superstar keeping everybody organized and fed#god i love this squad i love this series i love these dumbasses and their struggles and their triumphs and their stupid childish bonding#I love that Toriyama just spent the last several years reminding the class that DB as a whole has always been an ACTION-COMEDY about LOVE#and I'm SO sad that the z anime really never did it justice in that sense because of having to fill time with dramatic tension but god. GOD#THE MANGA HAS ALWAYS BEEN SO CLEAR ON THAT THESIS.#Just all about Restorative Justice and Community and CARING even when you wish SO MUCH that you didn't care but yoU DO GODDAMMIT!!!#SUCH a great series I'm so sad it took losing mr t for me to finally read it but my god I needed to read it now and I'm so glad he wrote it#and i'm SO glad he wrote it Exactly Like This#once again rip to a legend i'm caught up and crying it's so perfect it's SO everything I've wanted to see onscreen and embedded in canon#and canon isn't everything but it still feels gREAT to be SO 1:1 on the same page with an author re: how you interpret your blorbo yknow???#been rotating this man in my head for 25 years and Mr Toriyama just mWAH kissed me on the forehead about it#anyway enough tag rambles I'm off again aklsjla#bonus for that kenpachi shit and letting him say 'sorry dude I can't be cold and numb anymore but this is still cathartic as fuck lol' like#mr t i hope you see the HIGHEST tier of heaven for that (and obviously for like everything all of it the whole life you led)#dbtag
