#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#a-yuan#Ultimately...despite how hard we try to reach people - sometimes it just is not possible.#Sometimes all you can do is wish that things could have been different. You pen a note with all the things you want to say -#and then you let it go. The words stay unsent and unspoken. You just watch the rift between you grow until you're too far away to try again#It is a sad end! It is two people who want to be closer but do not have the right capacity to do anything but shut doors.#Worse yet; it's two people who feel it is not their place to try and impose anything more.#It takes so long to heal from endings like that. You never get enough closure when there is still a faint hope of 'another day'.#It's a false amicability. It's closing a door and telling yourself that at least the windows are unlocked.#WWX will keep up his friendliness as a way to hold LWJ at a distance. LWJ can only try to help so many times.#Speaking of tragedies of trying to help; Let's talk about the addiction metaphors in this episode.#WWX tells LWJ in fairly straightforward terms that he does not *want* do be doing ghost cultivation.#What he wants is to protect people - by any means necessary. If he had another option he would take it.#The path WWX 'chose' is one that is deeply mired in external shame and taboo. He jokes about it but it clearly doesn't feel great.#And I put 'chose' in quotes because just like many who find them selves in bad situations - the choice is an illusion.#He's adamant that this is 'his' choice. That he is in control.#Better to be villainized that endure the terrifying reality that you lack any ability to have choice anymore.#If he had the choice - truly had the choice - he would not be doing this.#You can't help those who don't want to be helped. So of course all LWJ can do is watch from the side. Offer a hand when he can.#This life was a tragedy and the countdown to it all blowing up started a long time ago...

fnaf analog horror series where each episode is just 20 minutes of william afton kicking puppies, stealing candies from and popping balloons of small children, causing 9/11 sixteen years earlier (he does it again on the correct date later on don't worry) , all including a loud screaming audio for everytime he does something evil that goes for longer than it should. Also Freddy's barely if is important except for it being where he does the evil and there being a fazbear branded plane
at least 10 videos, each by different people, will be made for each episode talking about how it's "the scariest fnaf content ever made" and "made fnaf ACTUALLY SCARY again!!!" while the thumbnail is something like a monochrome photo of the twin towers with a fucked up looking springtrap facing the viewer with "HE DESTROYED THEM" written in bold, big red text
#fnaf#five nights at freddy's#william afton#fnaf vhs#fnaf analog horror#analog horror#springtrap#i assure you dear viewer that the 3 full minutes of audio of screaming and crying was fully necessary and NEEDED to be that long#and not for lazy shock value. nope#oh yeah and the videos talking about the series only summarize the plot and dont actually discuss much of the series itself

“the submarine trip was stupid and rooted in classism”, “it’s absolutely hideous how much more manpower was put into saving and reporting on them vs the 500 migrants who died in a similar horrible fashion”, and “despite their actions, no human being (especially not a nineteen year old) should deserve to die like this, especially when their death will not actually herald any positive change/abolishment of the billionaire class” are three thoughts than can and should coexist. you don’t have to mourn their deaths, but you don’t need to celebrate them, either.
#oceangate#titan#leftism#like 'eat the rich' is all well and good but only when positive change is going to be made#talk and laugh about it all you want#but let's not wish death on people when such death isn't necessary#let's talk about the real issues (the manpower put into rescuing this people vs the migrants)#and the abuse of safety regulations by huge corporations

So while everyone is trying to get any discourse that isn't Apple related going, would this be a good time to mention I think Faybelle/Apple and Briar/Raven have more parallels than Apple/Briar and Faybelle/Raven? Or talk about the realtionship between Raven and Briar at all? Anybody here?
#pleaseeee someone talk to me abt this i'm actually begging#faybelle and apple both being royals following their destinies because they idolize their mothers#while briar and raven both have absentee mothers and terrible endings#so they try to escape that by any means necessary#and the resentment raven causes in briar for taking that step first#ever after high#eah#apple white#briar beauty#raven queen#faybelle thorn#honestly the only real parallels apple/briar and raven/faybelle have in the dynamics between the two pairs#are that they're villains vs protagonists of the story#but in universe it doesn't count as much as their actual opinions and actions around destiny do#it's also worth noting that briar refuses to participate in the dragon games#smth raven tries to do but can't because of her mom#while faybelle and apple spend dragon games teamed up with raven's mom for the majority of it#like if we want to talk abt characters and dynamics outside of whether or not apple is a good person... just saying....#open to discussion here.....

Being an osc fan who loves chars who are complicated and mean is hell. Only men and silly characters get to stay in.
#idk if its intentional but a lot of the time the host is mean- and it balances out the fact that mean chars get eliminated 😭#conflict is necessary but if ur chars cant do that then u gotta use the host.#I miss mean flower. she only ever won bc she went through an arc.#cabby too. I wish she had stayed 'mean!' i liked her better before the rejoin. she had every right to use her notes to her advantage.#i cld go give u a list of male chars ppl love compared to female chars who act the same and are hated#this is abt tpot im so pissed pin is out over tree#but also i just share this sentiment across all the object shows im into shrug.#talking#tpot#inanimate insanity#osc

For me the icing on the cake for Clive in regards to him being reduced to desperation over the years as a result of his own choices is that he has no choice but to ally with Rebecca, who actually is the person he pretended to be in 2020. She has power over a good many people because they fear her, and she isn't at all hesitant to torture/kill in horrific ways if it serves her purposes. In many ways, he's essentially forced into Gordon's position in 2020: no real power in the situation, desperately trying to get the violent people in charge of him to stop locking people up, and his only friend has even less agency in the world than he does.
#red valley#red valley spoilers#scenic talks#however the difference between Gordon and Clive is that Gordon actually has morals#and helped Aubrey at great risk to his own life#but Clive is so desperate to get back into hypersleep that even if he disagrees with Rebecca's methods#he won't stop her from doing what she feels she has to do#in 2x04 after the stabbing incident Gordon says he and Clive had the same expression on their faces#but Gordon actually tries to help not only by helping Aubrey but by confronting Warren about his mental state multiple times#Clive's line for what he sees as necessary is soooo much further than Gordon's#anyways!#rv text

You know this scene?
And how it was played as a funny jab at Aku's starvation for approval?
Well, I think it portrays more condescension on Dazai's part than it seems...
Because Dazai touching Akutagawa might have been the reason he even fainted.
Akutagawa clearly agrees with Dazai when he points out his exhaustion, responding to his "You're at your limit, now, aren't you?" With "It doesn't matter".
Rashōmon could have been the only thing keeping Akutagawa standing at that moment.
Dazai could have been totally aware that that was the case.
And what he does? Nullify his ability right then and there. Seep what's left of his strength away. Before, and not after, he provides him the praise he oh-so-needs after so, so long.
I'm half certain Dazai wouldn't have given that compliment if he wasn't sure he'd turn his protege off that way. Never having to deal with the reaction, never having to handle the emotions that would result and stem because of him. Easier that way, isn't it?
And you know what? I don't even think Akutagawa heard him at that moment, else why would he still be adamant to win Dazai's approval after this scene?
#Dazai you pos I'm onto you#“You're at you limit? Lol”#“Lemme turn you off before I give you what you need most rq”#“Whoops” Yeah whoops on you for nullifying the only thing holding him up RIGHT AFTER acknowledging his deteriorated state#btw I'm not a Dazai hater at all but he just pisses me off in each Aku interaction he has 😭😭#maybe im reading too much into this but I also don't think Dazai does anything without a motive behind it#touching aku might seem like a nice gesture tho wasn't at all necessary#idk this is 3am me talking perhaps my views will change in the morning dhdjdj#bsd#dazai osamu#akutagawa ryuunosuke#bsd dazai#bsd akutagawa#bsd analysis#J's Writing ✍🏽#J's post#bsd hc#bsd headcanon

in honor of pride month, here's percy begrudgingly admitting he thinks ares is handsome after giving him the most unflattering description
#this is the funniest bi!percy moment to me#why was it necessary to inform the audience that the man u just described was handsome percy 🤨#anyway thing i miss most abt percy is how he used to be amazed by everyone's beauty all the time in pjo#another causality we lost in the war#<- a joke that's incredibly funny to me bc i'm referring to rick deciding percy can only comment on annabeth now#but it also happened after the literal war and therefore seems kinda sad lol#percy jackson#pride#percy jackson is bisexual#percy#min talks pjo

genuinely how do the "you can't fully understand/appreciate taylor's music without also discussing her personal life" swifties listen to other music. like do you research a singer's relationship status before you play their album? what if that kind of personal context simply isn't public knowledge? or does it only apply to taylor and in which case is part of the appeal and enjoyment of taylor's music specifically because it lends itself to analysis of the person/life/relationships behind it??
#i'm not even saying this in a hater way i just do not get it#over and over i've been seeing some form of this argument that analysing taylor's relationships etc is part and parcel of just understanding#her work#but like. do you not also enjoy and understand and appreciate work by other artists??#and only a small fraction of artists have that much of their personal lives known to the public#this framing of analysing and judging a stranger's relationship as a normal/expected/necessary part of an album experience is just confusing#taylor swift#talking

imagining the story from pei ming's perspective is rlly funny i think. this god from all that time ago ascends again (you were there for the first two times) and immediately waltzes into a situation that fucks something up for your descendant (putting both of your reputations on the line, messing up how hard your descendant worked to become a god and how hard you worked to ensure that he would have that chance) and then refuses to let you smooth the situation out and on TOP of that your friend's little sister (who hates you and who you are trying to look out for by request of your friend) is on your case about it too. so you've gotta work all that out and then like. you chill for a little bit (still kind of upset about your descendant) until your friend undergoes a heavenly calamity. and then in the space of like A Day the god from earlier shows up again with a fucking ghost king, your friend dies, the little sister you're supposed to be looking out for disappears, and everything just kinda goes to shit. so you're like. grieving. trying to process everything. until your OTHER close friend goes off the fucking rails with the spirit of that guy she murdered, and then you get called out to the spooky ghost mountain where you're confronted with the girl whose death YOU were essentially responsible for and have never really come to terms with, and then like. you just kind of hang out with these gay people until everything resolves itself. fight some ghosts. fight the heavenly emperor. get your friend to stop being evil for a little while so she can fix the filing systems. and then you just have to keep being the god of love i guess
#characters who are so related and yet so unrelated to the story my beloveds#is he really necessary to the story. no! he's so essential to me though#nobody talks about the tragedy of the three tumors... i know it's cause they're awful but c'mon guys...#these three people who only have each other... pei ming losing both of them one after another in their own way...#i think he's probably pretty chill about ling wen being evil. i don't remember how he responds but i don't think he's that worried.#but still. that's two for two on the 'people i care about getting fucked up somehow' list#and then the kid that you're supposed to be emergency older brother to fucking DISAPPEARS.#so you can't even follow through on your promise to your dead friend...#shaking my computer. do you all understand how i feel#pei ming posting tonight. so many thoughts but so little expressed in the pei ming posting#too sleempy... will return to thoughts later#i am going to become the pei ming poster of all time. just watch me#talking#tgcf#pei ming#tian guan ci fu

Australia is planning on banning under 16s from using social media.
So so many reasons this is a stupid idea but the main one is actually, counter-intuitively, ppl's online safety.
Grown ups know how to cross the road safely because they are taught as children. They get to practice with parental supervision when they're kids.
You keep kids off social media then give them unlimited access at 16 and they'll have no frame of reference, no supervision, no working knowledge of how to fact check etc. If you actually want ppl to be safe online, make it part of education.
When discussing Animal Farm in English, talk about how to analyse ideas that sound good but actually result in inequality in practice and then pull up some questionable tweets.
When teaching kids how to research for their next essay, give them a fb rant and show them how to verify the info.
And then whoever is teaching them about personal responsibility should introduce them to tag blocking on tumblr. Show them how to curate their own experience.
Chat gtp should be its own module titled "ai can and will lie to you please for the love of god learn to think for yourself"
#social media#australian#australian politics#laws#legal stuff#knee jerk reactions from government causing problems for all of us#they're talking about age verification for social media#i can only assume that means they want platforms to gather your legal id#sounds like a great way to open yourself up to more risk#nevermind that ppl like to be anon on tumblr for a reason#if it became easy to link my rl to my online one I'd be out#and then what void would i have to rant to#also take responsibility for your kids learning how to use technology safely#it's not easy but it is necessary#a ban on them using it until a certain age isn't going to miraculously make them safe#i can't believe our elected officials can't think of all this for themselves#even the experts have said kids need to learn to live with social media aka educate them#online safety

he makes me so crazy. most repressed man in the world chooses a career that encourages and feeds his repression and within that career enforces professionalism to the upmost
#id in alt text#disco elysium#wild to me when people hc kim like. talking harry through his emotions. he Would Not Do That#he ACTIVELY discourages harry from feeling things or discussing his feelings#idk i'm only like halfway through the game maybe it changes later on but. i feel like it maybe won't#he certainly reassures and comforts harry when necessary but actual verbal expression of emotion is wayyyy out of his wheelhouse#his advice for harry on getting through a total mental breakdown is 'focus on work it'll make you feel better'#he sucks. i love him so much <3

-POV: You had to change your bio and put only the pronoun “he/him” because you don’t like people calling you “she/her” all the time.
No, but being very honest now, I honestly don't like people always taking me to the "feminine" side, like, I know I look very feminine but that doesn't mean people have to always refer to myself with the pronoun "she/her".. I can draw myself with breasts, eyelashes and whatever you consider "feminine", but it doesn't mean anything that I like you always referring to me with that pronoun! And people also often get Mel Creator's pronoun wrong, like, in my situation I understand, but in his... The description itself says that he only refers to himself with the pronoun "he/him", so.. It's kinda difficult, you know..?
-Melissa, designer.
#I apologize for my “outburst”. but I had to say this.. like. I know that the issue of pronouns is difficult.#but sometimes you can't always stay in the same thing. you know...?#I admit that I also make mistakes and have made many mistakes in relation to this. but I don't want you to make the same mistakes as me..#at most sometimes but not always...#I appreciate you reading this far and don't worry. I'm not “angry”.#I just wanted to vent and talk about something that has been bothering me for a long time..#and it's okay if you made a mistake and didn't mean to. I understand you. it's normal to make mistakes!#like I said before. I also made and still make this mistake sometimes. but it's not necessary to focus only on that#you know?#I advise you to first look at each person's bio or ask the person how they would like or feel better to be called.#this makes things much easier and doesn't cause any problems! and.. anyway. that's it...#sorry again and I hope you can understand me.. I love y'all!❤️🩹#tw vent#not an art post
