imagining this very funny totally amusing bit where dust (despite having a lot of pockets) makes horror carry a lighter for him (only because he can't be bothered to remember to bring one on him all the time) and horror keeps it in his head
but horror's a dick so everytime dust wants to smoke and he needs a light horror's always like "whats the password :3" (he actually said the emoticon i was the quotation marks) and dust has to guess. because horror changes it every time. and its never something predictable. and then he either just totally gives up on that cig or he has to forcefully dig into horror's head to get the lighter because horror's being a PRICK
now dust is shoulder deep into horror's eyesocket while horror is clawing and screaming and killer's just standing there behind them watching this unfold with that fuckass smile on his face (he can't get this type of entertainment anywhere else)
#bonus: this means that horror could theoretically breathe fire#like the world's shittiest magician!!!! he would need a shitton of fuel tho to get a big flame#peak mtt interactions i believe. knowledge of canon is only to make more ridiculous scenarios realistic#killer worlds best bystander to dust and horror's bullshit. he sees something he says NOTHING#erm well technically! the eye goop would get in the way of his vision so he actually doesn't see anything either! alright wrap it up pal#i COULD make this into a comic but i simply have larger priorities rn i cant (tweaking out over hw still)#horror if you were just less of a bitch maybe you wouldnt be in this situation#but it's the matter of the principle he says. dust has to guess the password he says. well who's complaining when dust is in your skull huh#this too counts as horrordust beefing. because you'd think that horror would just give the lighter to dust#but unfortunately this was posted by me (triglycercule) and i will have no such thing as bear horror on this account#dust would wear cargo shorts he would wear a cargo vest he'd have a belt with pockets he'd have secret shoe pockets he IS a pocket#why wouldnt dust just keep the lighter on him!!! CMON he's mellowed out since his dusttale days!! the human is dead so now he can be lazier#not lazy enough that he can couch rot for 3 weeks straight (he needs to stay SOMEWHAT active (force of habit))#but lazy enough where if he has a living purse then he will use said purse for its pursing purpose#horror's head doesnt even have enough space for dust to fit his arm in wtf. improper use of eye socket ahh 😭😭#tricule rant#killer sans#dust sans#horror sans#murder time trio#utmv#sans au#THEYRE SO SILLY MTT MY SILLY GOOFS!!!! a rare moment where they beef but it has nothing to do with their lore/backstories

Every time someone comments the state of musical theatre in their country by saying musicals here should be presented in English because the translations are awful, a muse loses its lyre.
I mean, sure, if you think musicals should always be sung in their original language to preserve the exact vocal flow the original artists intended or whatever other purist connoisseur reason, fine. You're entitled to that opinion.
But other than that, the correct statement is this: musicals here should be translated better because the current translations are awful.
Just saying.
#slightly related: Tom Waits's The Black Rider is being staged in Finland and the licence says they're not *allowed* to translate the songs#rumor has it that even having Finnish subtitles for them is forbidden but I'm not sure if that's true#but even if they only forbid singing a translation out loud that pisses me off to no end#I mean. sorry Tom but no matter what your lyrics for the show are like they're not all that#if Shakespeare can be translated to local languages wherever his plays are performed so can this. and any other text for that matter#translation is an art of its own and it deeply annoys me that with this show they're not even allowing anyone to take a shot at it#I honestly think the theatre should've just called bullshit and chosen some other show. just as a matter of principle#sometimes I hate it here#musicals

Absolutely unhinged article about Wicked wtf




“Stop caring about representation focus on the bigger picture about liberation!” We can and should ask for both actually. In fact one usually comes with the other.
#idk the whole everything of everything surrounding this movie is OFF#anyway#i dont even like wicked lol#this is a matter of principle for me#and no i don’t feel oppressed that the two girls didn’t kiss i feel agitated because its clear bait as it stands right now

I texted my mother yesterday asking that she call me when she didn't answer her phone. No response, even this morning.
If she ever wonders why I always contact my grandmother first...
I'm trying to tell her that we got our "dream house" for rentals. All of this will be within a 2 minute drive from the new house:








#Personal#Vent post#I'm going to call her myself but its just the principle of the matter. like if I dont answer my phone when she needs to tell me something I#hear about it. I assumed she was out with friends so I texted her. The fact that she didn't even text back just... ugh.

but it is extremely funny that when mal finally gives up the ghost and says something about the a at the end of his name the only reaction he gets is jade going "dat's nice :) 👍" and polly going "yeah yeah whatever. huh i'd be cleaning the toilets right about now"
#like several gender/sexuality reveals in mr retroactively change the context of EVERYTHING that came before but mal is just like. ok#still he/him-ing on principle its not even what i personally think but like with mal. im with polly on this one#like happy for you buddy but like 9 people have come out today. i think i gotta clean the toilets tomorrow#monstrous regiment#maladict#the way people play it fast and loose with pronouns when discussing mal online is so incredible to me like thats#thats exactly what happened in the book. it doesnt even matter you know SOMETHING is going on there#discworld

Reading shit comics kind of sucks but at least I get the satisfaction of proving my own point w this
#like damn if i really was 100% right about this before i even knew what i was talking about#anyways one of the many many problems with new 52 wonder woman is the fact that diana isnt religious enough#also that azzarello and chiang are incapable of imagining a feminist utopia which is the original genre that wonder woman comics were based#in in the same way that batman for example is connected to the noir genre. and the mythological aspects of the og wonder woman comics were#in fact a common framing aspect of the feminist utopia genre of the progressive era (with many of the deeper greek mythology aspects being#established as the foremost ww genre later on)#anyways this failure to understand this layering of genres in the ww mythology i believe is the principle contributor of why this run which#is popular with many and has such a footprint in other more mainstream media is hated by so many longtime wonder woman fans in that it not#only neglects but actively goes against key parts of her premise#a comparison could be made to a superman run that is heavily based in science fiction and exploring deep sci fi genre plots without any#understanding by the creators of why it matters that superman is champion of the oppressed and disrespecting that core part of him by in#some ways making him actually go against that in service of the high sci fi genre plots and conflict#and then ofc to translate better in this reality this run would function like a can of worms in that while dc in comics would eventually#course correct back to the base version the public opinion would become divided and especially adaptations would need all the canon changes#from that run torn viciously out of their hands bc they refuse to LET IT GO#anyways yeah teehee i swore to someone id never read it but i needed it for fic research purposes unfortunately so i started it. only read 6#issues but meh. first one wasnt terrible tbh id read worse but after that i got much more unhappy#anyways they simply dont understand why people like the amazons or why people should like the amazons. which again is like half the freaking#point bc like. feminist utopia genre. but i digress#its bad but its bad in a way that proves me right about why its bad so at least theres that#someday when i post my rebirth ww fic ill post the analysis of nu52 ww and the comparison to the beat movement/ginsberg that ive got in my#drafts. finally get that A in comic book literary analysis#blah

It is kind of crazy to me Dragonborn and Dawnguard are both DLCs. Locking two of your most interesting quest-relevant characters behind a paywall? Todd? You stupid prick?
#signed#They're like half the appeal of Skyrim for me I don't really care about the vampire lord shit but I like Serana and the soul cairn#and Miraak heh well lets justr say I(gunshot#^ granted the price hardly matters because the special edition goes on sale for dirt cheap so frequently. I think I paid like ten bucks#but its the principle of the thing. base game without them is so..like oh yeah let me do the CIVIL WAR quest line. give me a fuckin break

I promise you if you give people the benefit of the doubt, if you assume ignorance or misunderstanding instead of malice, if you make the effort to give and recieve clarity, if you listen to people's thoughts and explanations, you will see the world as so much less cruel than you had before. So much more loving. It's not easy, but it's so so important to do, for yourself and others
#bangles' post#this is about my dad#who last week had invalidated my chosen name as a not-real name and sought my permission to use my deadname when talking to the older gen#and today sat down with me to talk about my chosen name and what it means to me. he really sought to understand why i chose it#and he then not only apologised for misunderstanding the value of my name and for invalidating it#but also explicitly reassured me that im allowed to tell him if hes wrong#which is huge for him. hes never invited correction on something lile this before - something that he feels is a matter of principle#ie chosing a name with importance and meaning and serious intent#hes not perfect. he still holds dated beliefs that he hasnt truly examined or even allowed himself to question.#hes never been particularly emotional available or even very present in my daily life#but he is trying. and he does want to be better#and if both of us had given eachother the benefit of the doubt we could have had a much better conversation about my name#but still. talking about now its clear that he does genuiningly want whats best for me. he just needs to know that#im taling myself seriously enough that the ways he tries to help will actually be helpful#im rambling. anyway#give people the benefit of the doubt. i promise its worth it

im honestly tired of the male attention at work, and i know its literally because my hairs been getting longer, and this frustrates me because while i do love having short hair the most, i actually feel really confident styling with the length i have now and i like having the back of my neck be warm.... and i like being able to dress more masculine but still have a couple more "feminine" attributes, it suits my genderfluidity the most. but then i feel conflicted with my butchness, especially with the type of attention i get from guys, even though i know that attention isnt my fault and i cant control how people perceive certain facets of mine. and in a way, it honestly makes me feel like no one really values my butchness or masculinity. i wish people weren't more kind to me depending on how feminine they perceive me to be. anyways, all this to say, my coworker made some comment, and then explained it to me saying it wasnt a joke, and i was like "no yeah i got it." and he was like "sorry, sometimes i over explain things to the other people here but i think it goes without saying that youre a cut above the rest when it comes to intellect"....... and then he had the gall to try and get me to agree with him........ i really hate guys like this that try and express how they value you by putting others down. UGH!
#he was like 'right?' and i just said 'i think itd be very unkind for me to agree with that statement'#even though i do find the people i work with dumb..... its the principle of the matter.#anyways later on same guy was like jumping to do some of the orders for me and stuff#and its like... i understand hes trying to be kind in the way he knows how but i seriously dont care and i dont want to be perceived by him#or any of my male coworkers!!!!!!#theyre so annoying recently... all because 'longer hair = cute girl!' to them i guess.#i know i sound jaded and i wish i could take his kindness at face value#but theyre all so misogynistic constantly at work that it really means nothing to me
