people actually genuinely shipping eric bogosian and assad zaman is so revolutionary to me I think all rpf should be between a 71 year old man and some theatre twink. quit it with the 20 year olds from youtube and boybands. only this from now on
#i dont know why it surprises me so much i want tv!devils minion as bad as anyone#and i know the internets general lack of ability to differentiate between acting and real life#but something about these compilations of assad giving eric heart eyes at panels is so uniquely interesting to me#i guess the thing to me is that normally if a celebrity relationship looks like that there is OUTRAGE.#ive seen thinkpieces being written about celebrity relationships with a 7-year age gap#yet now it's not only endorsed but actively encouraged and imagined by some fans#and it's all because of eric bogosians raw sex appeal. honestly impressive#personal#iwtv

what fun lore questions would you like to be asked
you’re talking to someone who has written essays about location subtitles and character walking speeds. last night i briefly went on a tangent about the road design of hyrule and how it informs the story. the difference here is that no one in real life is willing to listen to me talk at length about the lore implications of map design. on tumblr you can ask me anything and i have the freedom to become an unskippable cutscene with no shame
#my family just has an uncanny ability to choose the questions i CANT do this for. not for lack of trying#i walked my mother through several generations of rito character design a few days ago#and then she stopped asking me questions about the character design. so#anyway yes this is an open invitation to ask me your lore questions if i don’t write essays about loz ill die#asks

kabru as a pwnpd headcanon is genuinely so iconic that man rlly is odysseus' hubristic tendencies made manifest tbh . . .
#/silly#i love projecting my own npd to him but like he was born cluster beautiful personality disorder#the way he kind of has an ''off'' switch when he can just#turn off both rationality and like gets driven only by pure instinct as a survival response#it's genuinely fascinating#sash talks#dunmeshi#kabru of utaya#genuinely . npd and dp/dr and ocd coding with him is strong.#like everyone knows hes gotta be autistic#but like his whole flavor of ptsd and childhood trauma specifically#makes him so complex . in terms of personality disorderism.#like ppl talk abt how he ' metagames ' social interaction sm because he thinks if he can do it in that lense#it'd be easier for him#genuinely anthropology / sociology special interest#the stims / gesturing#but he also reminds me a lot of like. reigen arataka who def has autism + adhd + npd#where he like . puts ppl on a certain standard / criteria that he judges#the way he's so prideful of his ability to judge other ppl.#and the way he crashes and goes back and forth when he learns he's wrong#the way his disappointment drives him to compromise#the way he's like. that#he's so npd coded it drives me crazy that only a couple ppl mention it#even though it serves as like a great point of comparison#to laios' sometimes self-centered yet low self-esteem !#and to mithrun with his npd and his current lack of drive due to the (redacted) 3#like !! this man ( kabru ) is genuinely so full of . neuroses#npd + autism + ocd + gemini (lol) + osdd possibly (dissociative disorders in general) + bpd#he could even have aspd or hpd swag but i can't say much on that#unless i get peer reviewed by the fellow cluster b with aspd or hpd ahaha

i'm getting towards the end of the skypeia arc, & i'd like to say just how much i adore the way the female strawhats have been treated.
just... every aspect of how the way their characters have been previously contextualized influences the story-line is treated with a masterful amount of consideration. we're given so many layers to both of them that enrich not only their characters specifically, but the arc, and the one piece world as a whole. without nami & robin having their specific skills, and their specific values, without those being built upon, the story would have come to a halt.
you could not have skypeia without nami & robin being who they are as individuals. not just because they never would've gotten there without nami, but also because the way these women think is itself foundational to the machinations of the arc as a whole.
to be totally upfront, if you think any other strawhats were more central to the skypeia arc than nami & robin were you are full-on fucking lying to yourself.
#obligatory disclaimer that i’m aware luffy is the protagonist & a lot of interesting stuff is explored w him. this isn’t abt him though.#part of me wonders if this is an aspect of why people will write off this arc sometimes tbh... like that & the political themes.#but yeah anyway i get why people say that for all there are 100% misogynistic tendencies in oda's writing & character design#it is very very hard to say that he as an individual is an ideological misogynist. like the level of care he puts into his female cast mem#-ers generally speaking & how he approaches what existing as a multi-dimensional individual would look like in their specific contexts is#like... in a lot of ways still something that is unprecedented across all forms of media.#but also not the point but anyone who says nami in particular doesnt get real fights/is unskilled um... no you're wrong read her fight in#alabasta & then all of skypeia.#like in alabasta she takes on arguably a stronger opponent than sanji when considering the structuring of BW. not only that but she does s#with a weapon she has never used before while actively reading the instruction manual. and she WINS. she wins based on sheer intellect &#the ability to utilize skills the audience already knows she has. the pre-existing basic fighting skills she's introduced with are elabora#-ed upon by incorporating her skill w navigation. same with the way her cunning is used in skypeia to cover her lack of sheer brute. &#the best part about it is she's fucking tough in a way that makes sense! she isn't strong/weak just for the sake of positioning her as such#it is thoughtful & it strengthens her as a character rather than just like giving the power-scaler types smth to mindlessly chew on.#like do i wish nami got to fight more & take a more active role in that regard even if i don't think she needs to be a fighter in the same#sense as the monster trio? yes absolutely. i'm guessing this is going to be smth that bothers me potentially even more with robin.#but that does not mean her fights are not masterfully written when she gets them or that she isn't tough as a bag of nails.#respect my darling woman or die.#skypeia#nico robin#nami#grey's one piece tag

At this point I don't think Teruki's parents are exceptionally horrible individuals (long-term psychological consequences still happen in cases in which the abuse isn't considered particularly severe + everyone is capable of harm, even "good" people), but they weren't the best, without a doubt.
Okay, they got too busy with their jobs and had to move overseas to progress on their career. External circunstances. Things that happen. They left their son behind, but that could always be justified by hectic schedules of ever-moving businesspeople. How else could he have a stable routine to focus on his future? They're just busy. Teruki hasn't seen them in long but that's not their fault, right?
They cared for Teruki, didn't they? His parents made sure that there was someone home to watch him whenever they were far away. It was inevitable that there would be times he would be with himself, though. But that's not bad! It only became a problem once those strange espers tried to take hold of him on the street. And even then, they were so weak he could barely give them the title of a psychic. It wasn't an issue that it happened more and more and there was no one to intervene. Or that Teruki had to torture descriptions of "Claw organization" and "brainwashed soldiers" out of these grownups to know what they wanted with him. His parents couldn't know. Why should they know? Better put: what could they do?
What could a normal person do against someone with psychic powers?
It was Teruki's choice to live by himself. He could manage it all. Contrary to the other kids, he was an independent and responsible young man who could be trusted with a house and money. Such a great boy. His parents were so proud to have someone as competent as him as a son, one which wouldn't mean hard work for them. One who always had the best grades and was the soccer team's best player and was the best student on the town's best middle school.
Of course they would suddenly allow Teruki to live on his own. Any parent with a child like him would, wouldn't they? Anyone on their right mind and who knew the slightlest about him would be sure he could do it.
And even if this "Claw" organization scared him a bit and he felt a bit lonely at times, it wasn't an issue. Issue would mean it was an obstacle - which it wasn't, as Teruki did perfectly on his own. His parents believed on so. That's why he had his own apartment at 12 on the first place. Teruki was so wonderful at this. It wasn't horrible if they didn't answer his calls, because they were so busy and he wasn't a little kid who depends on his mommy. None of this was their fault. He shouldn't bother them or himself over this.
Because they cared, right? On the end, it was only a pile of tragic circunstances and coincidences no normal person could act against. It was part of life as someone special like him. He couldn't expect that his parents could change any of this, and this made his loneliness the best possible choice. It was obvious that they would support such a decision.
What would a normal person do against someone with psychic powers?
#this was supposed to be a short description of how I imagine the Hanazawas but I got carried away with the prose#I suppose I'll leave some of the original idea here on the tags#for some reason Teruki's parents seem to be the type of absent parents who do care about their children#yet they don't have the slightlest ability to provide a happy and healthy life besides the generic ideal of a perfect kid#a kid who has a nice home and money to have fun and is physically healthy and has good grades#and their son is so special. of course they would brag about him at any opportunity to do so because it shows how they're good parents#yet they don't put any extra effort on caring for their kid besides this “minimum”. why would they? isn't he happy enough?#they gave such a damn perfect life for him! look how great he is doing by himself! look how he is an amazing kid!#and they say it like an irritatingly oblivious owner talks about their pet dog who has clear behavior and health issues#and their lack of emotional effort and actual care for teruki's wellbeing is so morbidly comical it warps into not being even funny#its just painful and absurd and they don't have an idea on how their choices are absolutely crazy bad#because there is no way you could be implying they're bad parents. they love teruki so much#mp100#mob psycho 100#teruki hanazawa#lalá rambling...

Co-op combat game play…in r1999…each player has two characters they can control…could be cool for like a special Mane’s Bulletin/UTTU feature…or event stage hard mode…ough
#just me and my brain juices#r1999#don’t mind me just fantasizing about new friends features#cuz the only criticism I have for this game is the lack of things you can do with the friends feature#just looking at a few of each other’s in game stuff and#basically just texting each other is fine but other more game related interactive elements would be nice#tho I did hear from the cn fandom that they may be adding the ability to share characters with your friends in the future#so an update in the far future for us perhaps T-T#reverse 1999#reverse: 1999#I should really start putting stuff like this in the feedback question on those end of event surveys#but a more general version ofc#just suggesting that they add more things to do with the friends feature with other players#now I just need to remember to do that…

Which real life political figures could be evil more effectively if they were less punitive? (yes, I want you to name all of them)
Can't, what if they're reading my blog and become more evil because of me
#i think more generally i have a theory of power where the threat is stronger than the execution#crackdowns display a lack of confidence in your ability to maintain power

do you ever feel casually suicidal? like you're not depressed or anything you're doing fine but also it feels like a convenient option
#if you can't make connections with people or be seen by anyone then like. at least you can feel like you're helping a better cause#to like charities and gfms and anyone else#but you have to tone that down bc you're slowly losing money bc you still can't get a job#and bc you don't have a job it means you're just stuck in the house all day. which gives Way Too Much opportunity to Think about everything#and also so like. i still share a room with my sister but it was fine bc she'd stay at her bf's a few nights a week#but he's got a job that's a bit further away and basically she can't go round his as much. so now it's maybe like once a week#the room is getting messier so it gives me less energy to do anything#you can get really into an unhealthy weight loss obsession bc at least it feels like you're getting towards something#but idek is set weight theory real? bc once i get down to a certain point it suddenly resets#like honestly counting calories and donating money to every gfm i saw and writing a film script was what kept me going#but first one isn't working and second i need some sort of income and third is finished and i have no way of actually creating it#and then there's the whole lack of stable hyperfixation and ability to find new music i enjoy#and realistically what would fix me is having a good job that i enjoy and somewhere to live on my own#but until i get a job that's currently impossible. and even then it probably won't feel like enough#my entire life is lived on my phone i need more physical objects but i don't have enough space#bc i share a room with my sister. it's like all my problems are connected#and i have enough optimism that i still think it'll get better in the next few weeks. maybe i'll be able to get a job and that'll#get everything going again#but at the same time i could easily just die#I've graduated from uni. I've seen the who live 3 times. I've crashed my car twice. I've watched 30 years of corrie. I've met various dogs#what else is there to do with my life honestly#(<- joking)#but yeah like. in summer 2021 i almost got suicidal (it was just letting the occasional thought linger in my mind etc)#but that was bc i was so depressed#but now it feels like i could just kill myself. but more just out of convenience#idek. i'm not gonna kill myself. bc i have a job interview on tuesday. and just in general i won't#but there is this casual feeling of like. well i might as well. i can't describe it#ramble#suicide tw#weight loss mention

new jane seymour fanfic just dropped!
where are the history books that call her a ‘sweet, docile angel’? name them.
#i’ll wait :)#we literally know nothing about this woman so we simply cannot claim with any certainty#what her feelings or motivations were. we simply don’t know.#‘jane was not a nice lady AT ALL’ well.. were any of them?#likewise why is she assumed to be inauthentic/manipulative when we simply don’t know?#while anne’s supposed ‘independence’ is unquestionably accepted as wholly genuine.#maybe jane was manipulative but there’s no evidence either way#seems weird to single her out as not nice when we know the least about her.#this ‘well ACTUALLY—‘ attitude about jane feels so spiteful.#people seem SO bitter and resentful over jane’s supposed glowing reputation… that doesn’t exist.#historians/authors either don’t care about her or they talk about her with disdain#& that there is a slowly burgeoning group of fans is not really indicative of her general historiographical record.#by and large jane is the least popular wife. we all KNOW this. there is no need to pretend.#there is no need to be this reactionary and defensive.#(ALSO:#‘genuinely lovely people were a rarity in the tudor court—#—they all backstabbed each other for a taste of power’#i need you to understand that tudor people… were people.#not every single person was/is a cartoonishly evil power-hungry machiavellian schemer.#many lacked the ability and/or the inclination. almost all lacked the agency — especially many women.#for the majority the court world was merely a place and system of employment.)#💿🐴

The thing about Colin Bridgerton's particular brand of cluelessness is that I feel like it could have been endearing if another man from a historical romance was super unaware of his gal pal's huge crush on him but then did shit like plaintively saying "I missed you 🥺" but like, you need a MAN to pull off this behavior, not..... Colin.
And then @jeanvanjer reminded me of Kingsland from Lorraine Heath's The Duchess Hunt who is, in fact, astoundingly unaware of his attraction towards his secretary Penelope (and her feelings for him!!), but then is like "I need a wife....... who happens to have the exact qualities as Penelope... I WONDER WHAT THAT MEANS". And then proceeds to ask Penelope to help him find a wife 💀. But it works here because the chemistry and attraction is there right from the start, as is the affection that grows from there.
#basically they're both hot#and one half doesn't suffer from an acute lack of ability to generate chemistry#lorraine heath#historical romance

I have a rich inner world abt both iterations of Miguel and the relationship to fatherhood <- literally just hc
#90s miguel would explode on the spot if he spontaneously became a father shdjdjfjfjf he’s barely grappling through the emotional arc of#trying to become a better man AND he has the most hang ups ever regarding parents in general.#BUT. but. his biggest issue w being a dad would honestly be his own tendency towards self sabotage AND the fact Miguel is like. desperately#scared he’s bound to his own blood. he’d honestly probably fuck up being a dad not because he lacks the capability to be a kind man (all of#2099 demonstrates he DOES have the ability and desire to change) but because#he’d be scared he’d intrinsically fuck it up and in that fear. actually fuck it up. and then see those mistakes as further proof he just#isn’t capable of this.#not to mention like. given just how complicated his relationship with his family is I don’t think fatherhood would EVER have been something#90s miguel would’ve even THOUGHT of. he’s too busy been terrified he’ll turn into his OWN father(s)#atsv miguel on the other hand. difficult to draw too many concrete strands of analysis from because we don’t know how his past will be#conceptualised. BUT I personally like to think he’s very similar to the 90s counterpart except he sees a version of himself as a father.#and he sees that version of himself be HAPPY as a father. be a *good* father. someone who raised a sweet daughter. who lives with definitive#proof that you aren’t bound to enact pain upon your children. that you CAN be a better parent than the ones you had.#I think THAT would shake Miguel. and I like to think atsv Miguel didn’t know he wanted to be a dad - didn’t even THINK of it - until he saw#a reflection of himself that said this was possible. that you can go on and have a family of your own and you can choose to make it a good#and loving thing.#ANYWAYS. ✌️ she came. she posted a huge Miguel rant. she left ✌️#tunes talks spiderverse#tunes talks 2099

like not to be that guy but if you do want to let the people producing blaseball: the card game know that you would like to see credit given where it is due, to the artists who created these designs and made blaseball what it is today, wayfinder has both a contact form and a general email listed as [email protected]. they also have a twitter and a facebook listed on the card game’s website.
i know this is something that has been brought up before in the blb fandom in some capacity or another since the card game was announced, but given nothing has been done on the production end to fix the issue, it seems like we have to keep bringing it up again and again. so. here are some places to do that.
#saw people in maincord who were fully unaware that artist credit was an issue with the game which has me absolutely steamed#like to be clear I am not telling you to spam them. that’s not what this is.#I am just putting out the avenues by which to let them know you’re unhappy. a thing i am also doing.#because this is bullshit and has been bullshit and it would have been nice if they’d done something different ummmm six months ago#but they didn’t. so.#here’s where to let them know they fucked up <3 in case they thought we forgot or didn’t notice <3#the strong real advice I have is that a lot of the time emails and contact forms will be ignored due to a lack of public scrutiny for stuff#…like this. so saying something on Twitter and Tumblr and Facebook#where other people can see it and engage with it#will generally elicit a quicker and more concrete response you can point to later#but yknow. not everyone has the ability or willingness to do that.#so here you go. emails.#i’m so tired. i’m so damn tired!

recently i've noticed that i've pretty much completely stopped caring about youtuber drama. that's probably for the best
#rambles#not jojo related#i never cared much about traditional celebrities either. i just watched a lot of youtube commentary videos#which have also begun to annoy me. youtube commentary is kind of just drama-for-content branded nicer i think#to be honest i find myself annoyed with celebrities in general nowadays#stop trying to make me care about the personal life of some random living rich person i will never know#i just come in with the expectation that every celebrity is probably a bad person or at least insincere#i'll always have the instinct to care about gossip like every human alive but that hampers your ability to care about celebrities a lot#and that disillusioned lack of care has started to extend to big youtubers. it's kinda the same deal#(i do tend to care about random dead artist's lives though. like harlan ellison. unfortunately i know too much about that guy#-that's more a result of pure fascination than idolatry though)

are you going to judge me if i cast off this shawl and immediately start another one by the same designer
#this shawl designer is so overwhelmingly popular ...... in the ravelry forums i read regularly...............#that im convinced that making these is just extruding Generic Knit Product Of No Interest#which. firstly. i actually do reserve my right to care if i am making extruded knit product but don't think it's a general virtue.#secondly i have to be in a total bonkers echo chamber for this right. no one outside these forums is like ''boo knits is so everpresent tha#anyone making them is displaying 'awareness of popular things' and not 'ability to make a specific and deliberate choice'''#not even anyone IN these forums thinks this really. only i could imagine a person thinking this#more to the point. is it cringe if i not only start a new shawl but i do it in a gradient-dyed yarn.#i just think it would look nice. but i think that shows a fundamental lack of discernment by me#box opener
