#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#mianmian#nie mingjue#jin guangyao#JGY is nothing but outwardly calm and carrying on his duties as the chair for the meeting#but in that small pause after Nie Mingjue commemorates Mianmian for leaving...you can feel the tension.#Because Nie Mingjue comes from a place of privilege. He's always been in a position where his legitimacy and political standing-#-were never challenged. He didn't have to fight for respect. He was born into this world respected.#For people like Mianmian and JGY who clawed their way up from the bottom...this is a huge deal.#Truth be told I have a lot of things to say about what it means and feels to be in a position where leaving is messy.#There are times where the situation is bad but to leave means that those years of your life will have been for nothing.#That all the other suffering incurred will be fruitless. So you just *keep going*. Because it *has* to be worth it.#Because going back to what you were before is even more terrifying than the hell you are boiling in.#My concrete example for this is post-grad academia.#Because that cohort will have spent over a decade pursuing a goal and leaving means...well...it means throwing away those years.#It means losing (likely nearly all) your connections. It means going into debt you'll never pay off.#It means putting up with some pretty heinous abuse from your supervisor because what are you suppose to do? Leave?#Leaving is for those with the privilege to have options.#And even if you do have options...#Ultimately we would rather love the pain we know than risk the unknown. Hoping it's worth it one day.#With that mindset established; never say JGY should have just left like Mianmian. He couldn't. This was what he dedicated his life to.#He never had the option. Even if it seemed like he did - no he did not. He never conceived this ending ever happening for himself.

#idk if this is an unpopular opinion but i genuinely operate on the assumption that the writers never think of the storylines#(and the indications of their writing choices in the broader frame) as much as the fans do#not in the way that im criticizing their intelligence or anything like that i just dont think this is the type of show written like that#like idt when they were writing the sperm donor storyline they were considering buck's broader storyline re being conceived as spare parts#or that what name the characters call buck has that much of a deep meaning like yes i have my own headcanons about tommy calling buck evan#but idt it was a direction given to lou because tommy is meant to be seen as special/different from other LIs/characters#i dont even think they considered the moment buck told his parents not to call him that#not saying nothing has staying consequences in the show obv but it's like whatever the character has to get from it happens in that arc and#then we move on#there are some defining traumas that come back like bobby's family madney and doug and eddie losing shannon#but i usually watch the storylines contained to that arc#not as a part of the lore that the writers will always be vigilant of as they keep building on these characters#at least not to the degree a fandom does#this is why i never speculate based on previous storylines l#not beyond ā€œthis would have a lot of potential if they went that routeā€#no one in that writers room thinks about character lore and the nuances of characterization as obsessed fans is what ill say#does*

Recently saw some cool vld art but noticed shiro wasnā€™t in it and found this :(
Tumblr media
I legitimately donā€™t even know what to even say anymore
With the Lance bit they were talking about him being the straightest character that is a creepy high school senior esc character, which sure there was a lot of that in the beginning
But the shiro being a cop thing??? Legitimately kills me inside :(
This is so utterly preposterous, I almost laughed out loud reading it.
I'm going to be really mean, here, and I apologize for that, but, screencapped OP,
Tumblr media
How does it feel to be a raging homophobe? Better inform every single gay man who has ever joined the military that he's straight, now. And, also a cop and cop supporter, apparently.
I legitimately can't tell if this is meant to be bait, because this person is lacking attention in their life and desperately craves it to the point of trying to piss off total strangers on the internet, or if they're actually so proudly willfully ignorant and hateful that they can't accept a gay man who isn't a walking flamboyant stereotype.
Gay male body-builders, pilots, firemen, martial artists, mechanics, adrenaline junkies, and, yes, police officers, have now had their gay cards revoked, per our ever-so astute and open-minded screencapped original poster's brave edict.
Tumblr media
How dare the Voltron: Legendary Defender showrunners decide to have a traditionally masculine disabled, neurodivergent trauma survivor who strives to be gentle, noble, and protective to the point of extreme selflessness, and epitomizes true, resolute and unwavering heroism, as their gay representation? It's like they were deliberately trying to upset thinly closeted bigots who reveal their true colors the instant they're met with a gay character that they don't find physically attractive and can't get off to fantasizing about, rather than make a landmark achievement in children's animation.
Seriously. Look me in the eyes and tell me to my face that this is a heterosexual man.
Tumblr media
Putting his all into posing dramatically in skin tight pants is totally something your average heterosexual man in his twenties does, am I right?
Tumblr media
All heterosexual animated men express anger like a typical teenage girl in any given anime.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pouting is completely hetero.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Body language-- what's that?
Tumblr media
It's very heterosexual of a man to assume a sulky pose that is closer to that of a teenage princess's than his male best friend's.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Straight men are also exasperated by heterosexual nonsense, don't you know.
As is usual with people who hate Shiro, the screencapped OP is demonstrating pure bigoted clown behavior.
And, just as a sidenote, Lance is the one who was excited by the prospect of being "like space cops".
@sockdooe, Please try not to let yourself be bothered by intentionally incendiary b.s.. It's a lot easier said than done, I know. But, if you can, remember, "This is the kids talking. It's not for me, it's for the kids."
Or, in this case, "It's for the clowns."

It's so funny to me when fic writers mention a new made up first encounter of sskk when it's actually part of canon and we know how it went. Akutagawa ripped off Atsushi's leg. Good luck finding anything more romantic than that

The anti-choice ā€œwhat if your mom had aborted YOUā€ argument is very funny to me because I was conceived partly because, when my dad was in college, a doctor told him that he couldnā€™t father children due to a bad case of mono. So, when my parents got married shortly after graduating, they were NOT careful about birth control. But I donā€™t see anyone advocating for doctors inaccurately telling nineteen-year-olds that their sperm all got boiled.

there's a gif of matt ryan covered in blood that i have been staring at for at Least fifteen minutes now and getting very emotional about. legends of tomorrow took the pledge to fuck constantine up so seriously and now i am undone, like i still can't BELIEVE they did a version of his dangerous habits arc in live action. i'll never not feel like a kid at christmas about it.

I thought about working a 9-5 for the next 45 years of my life and all of my love for life has evaporated
#it's 1am i'm going to read fun fics and forget about it and go to sleep#i have other things to worry about. we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.#.... it's genuinely distressing though.#because the only times i feel like a real person are outside of school or work.#especially holidays#i am never as much myself as during the summer holidays#i never have as much energy and motivation and joy for life as during the summer holidays#but soon i won't get a 2-4 months period to be a real person anymore.#soon i'll have to take a few weeks/year for a good 4 decades and by the time i'm done i won't have enough money to enjoy my freedom#i don't want that. i want to be a person. i want to be me 24/7 all year round#i don't want to say 'i'll do it when i have the energy' every day and know in my heart i won't ever have it anymore#do you know how long it takes to recharge those batteries? three weeks of holidays won't cut it#and i'm not even going to get that#i don't want to stop drawing to stop having fun with fandom to give up my hobbies and who i am as a person#but i know i don't have the energy to be a person after 4-5 hours of work#what is it going to be like when i have to do 7 hours a day?#when i have to push past my limits every day?#i can't conceive of a future where i work. i just can't. and it's going to happen and it's going to kill me#and i'm not even going to be dead! i'm just going to sleepwalk around the whole time and never be a person again#because all of the energy i have for that will have been taken by a work i don't want to do#.... okay i'm going to cry. um. fanfic time. i'm going to bury that under good fanfic so i can manage to fall asleep#wow i have a ramble tag now

HCQ lore is so....... their friendship was doomed from the start. nothing could've changed it, nothing will ever change it, and the consequences of forcing fates to walk a different destined path are felt even now. the dead can't die and those who DID die were reborn into captivity due to the sins of the past. deep, unconditional love corrupted by and because of that love to turn into unconditional hatred. vowing to grant each other the deaths that never end up lasting. and the only one who managed to escape relatively unscathed is doomed to watch the shadows of his friends chase each other in an endless, destructive cycle of death and rebirth. ghosts who wear the faces of those long lost, tearing at each other because retribution is all that survived the changes wrought by mara, by death, and by heresy. FOREVER DOOMED BY THE NARRATIVE.........

i've played through a few different Blood Moon routes with Beau (tho Vesper is kind of my Main Boy so i've definitely played more with him) and i'm having fun coming up with the sort of character he is
Beau, as his name might imply, is very pretty, and also very aware of it. he's also a charmer, and has a tendency to kind of lean into the blonde stereotype if people are gonna assume. so he comes off as just kind of a friendly, not terribly smart guy, but he's sharp and shrewd and observant and can be really cruel with it if he needs to be
thankfully, his pack is his Entire Soft Spot and he mostly uses his powers for good, or at the very least for the good of the pack (ie he tends to uuuh scam/straight up steal to make sure the pack is fed)
he's put so much of himself into the pack that he's not really all that good at thinking about what he actually needs or wants, which is why he winds up as the alpha oops
he's also had a huge crush on Sergi for a looooong time, but figured he wouldn't be interested and kept it to himself, and/or outright ignored it as something that could never happen
