#and thinking about casual situations

[erigold13261]

I love everything you make and all the positive comment you leave on people’s works!

Changing topics, I really admire how you can make more mature and serious problems with so much representation of all kinds of people in your famworks! Since I’m inclined to make more crack HCs and write for funsies, it makes my stuff look childish and silly… so much so it feels like OOC content with AUs that make absolutely zero sense. And I think both of these ways of writing are very, VERY valid!!!

Stay awesome (but safe)

Thank you! I definitely have said this before, but when it comes to sharing other people's art I always try to say something nice in the tags because I LOVE it when I get nice tags so I make sure to spread that kindness to others!

And again, thank you! I really just love learning about all kinds of things, injustices and lack of representation included in that learning environment. Which makes me want to either bring up those injustices or add more representation to my work! It's all really fun and important to me which is why I just keep adding more stuff! It also helps motivate me to learn other cultures too!

As for the silly stuff. That is totally fine! Silly is great to have! Like someone said about my darker AUs being a palette cleanser for fluff, the same thing could be said for fluff being a palette cleanser for angst! It's great to have both!

One of the best fanfics I read in the NSR community was the one about 1010 vs the Raccoons (I don't remember the author, sorry)! It was so silly and lighthearted, but so much fun and a great read! And that's the main takeaway.

Creating is supposed to be fun, to some extent (of course like I use it for coping and serious stuff, sometimes it's not always fun, but there is still some kind of enjoyment). So having AUs with OOC characters is great to have! Let me tell you! I've definitely taken characters and made them so OOC I literally just made them into OCs lol!

Even now, though I don't post them often, I do have silly ideas and fluff in my head! Right now I have a silly AU where the NSR adults above 40 turn into teens (with their teen mindsets) around the other NSR characters and it's all just fun and chaos! Random bullshit I can't do if I tried to stick to a timeline or put logic into the situation.

Literally just have fun and enjoy what you are doing! You want to make a character OOC? Go for it! You want to create the silliest AU with no logic to it? Go for it! Want to create a super serious and intense story with huge stakes? Awesome! Do it!

Just remember to have fun and that cringe culture is dead! :D

haven’t i always said that selena gomez always plays the victim??? ALWAYS???

[rosenecklaces]

I think gwynriels victim complex phenomenon needs to be studied like it's probably where the projecting into Azriel white-savior and fuckboy made-up personas came from. it's all clearer now...

[arsenicflame]

since we all appear to be talking about izzy 'calling the police' on stede id like to offer my silly little two cents:

its not like the navy wasn't actively looking for him anyway??????

at most, izzys actions sped up badminton catching up with stede, but its made very clear that badminton wanted Stede dead well before this, and was willing to use whatever he could to find him- whos to say jackie wouldnt have cut a deal on her own? that any other pirate thats seen them being unsubtle in a port wouldn't take the opportunity to make a quick buck over a guy who is Nobody and holds no influence that could lead to any consequences for them?

in reality izzy is probably the only person who would receive negative repercussions to selling out stede, given his personal connection with ed- any other pirate would probably have gotten away unscathed, anonymous. they likely wouldnt have even been present like izzy was. izzy had personal stakes, anyone else would have taken the money and ran

the way i see it, with or without izzy the events of episode 10 probably would have happened in some degree, izzy just expedited the timeline

I have a professional map:

There is a difference between liking kids and being good with kids, and I swear some of the people who cannot tolerate kids are the absolute best with them. And then some people try so hard and they still can’t get a kids attention. They’d rather go hang out with the uncles that cannot tolerate them.

Janeway in 'Nothing Human' vs Tuvok in 'Resolutions' There's something here I know there is I can almost wrap my teeth around it.

As much as I enjoyed seeing Laura in Deadpool & Wolverine, one thing has been bothering me since opening night, and I can’t shake it:

Why did Marvel design her a shirt that says “Savage”?

It’s a fictional band t-shirt. I spent hours reverse image searching and browsing album covers and tour posters of bands with related names, album titles, and song titles, and while it’s clearly inspired by real rock bands and tours, it was nevertheless made up. They actively chose to make up a shirt with a derogatory racial term for a group Laura and the actress who plays her is not a part of for her to wear. Someone was paid by Marvel to design it. Why?

Now companies are selling copies of the shirt, so more people will be out in the world wearing a shirt with a term that, whether you want to call it a slur or just a “derogatory racial term,” has a dark, violent history and makes many Native Americans uncomfortable. It is a word that was used to justify cultural genocide within my parent’s lifetime, that has been used as a justification for racist discrimination and hatred within our lifetimes, not just Logan’s lifetime.

Logan had band logos, too. They used Awaken the Dreamers by All Shall Perish. The title track is about fighting for human rights and ending oppression, the design features the Statue of Liberty holding a gun, not a torch, surrounded by the silhouettes of swarming military planes. Now in Deadpool & Wolverine, we’re casually using the word savage, sticking it on a “feral” character with a reputation for violence. It could be powerful if Laura were Native. She escaped from a government run institution systematically abusing and dehumanizing children based on their heritage. Logan cast primarily people of color to play the X23 children. Gabriela Lopez died at the Liberty Motel and Logan died at what was described at “the last stop on the mutant underground to Canada”. They utilized the mutant metaphor very deliberately, and I feel that Deadpool & Wolverine’s choice of costuming for Laura did that a disservice.

(Yes, I’m aware of Savage Wolverine. Its potential as an Easter egg for a racist comic book title doesn’t make it not racist)

to the person in the tag who just said “I fear I'm giving you all a very skewed idea of what ravenous 1999 is like,” we may not know each other, but we are brothers in spirit

I DONT KNOW WHY BUT i was kinda imagining earlier barn having abandonment issues, and constantly feeling the need to ask howdy if hes gonna leave him, and when he gets upset infront of howdy he starts apologising and asking him not to leave ect ☹️‼️

anyway sillies 😋

im not sure what you mean by earlier barn!

[mad-hunts]

i know no one necessarily asked for this information, BUT yes, barton did do masks with marcy while she was still around and also... yes, he might've looked a little bit like this self-care garfield while doing it. and honestly, he still puts on masks sometimes. so here's a little advice for y'all... if your muse is trying to talk to barton about anything that might possibly trouble him / make him angry — they might wanna do it while barton's doing his thing here, because it is pretty much a FACT that he can not be in a bad mood while he's like this LOL

aro culture is seeing some people joke about how in a show some girl looked like she would start making out with her brother because she was being extremely affectionate towards him after he (wait for this) almost died. and just. not finding it funny.

there r fics that make u insane (so amazingly good it’s removed ur sanity) and then there’s fics that make u insane (you need to fistfight the author for how they did a specific thing that caused u to rant for hours)
