I read Tomie for the first time recently

Junji Ito you fuckin cooked with the art progression and especially on the commentary on femicide, societal beauty standards, victim blaming, slut shaming-

If yalls are interested in horror and exploring these topics in a unique way I definitely recommend Tomie

One thing I think people forget is that sans probably wouldn’t talk about missing his home and never being able to go back and giving up unless he absolutely felt he had to

with frisk he’s pretty sure that’s the time traveler that could very well end the entire world. He’s trying to reason with em as a someone he’s hoping could be a friend at that point because he’d really rather not have that happen

In geno is IS the end of the world and he’s hoping you’ll realize this is stupid and cruel and reset. It’s not like he’d have this conversation on a random Tuesday with papyrus

yeah agreed, sans goes out of his way to not talk to/with papyrus about their life before the underground. remember the newsletter q&a? (this is more a theory, but judging from their behavior i personally think papyrus is an amnesiac/sans thinks he is, and he's trying to spare him the grief of remembering).

his memories and mementos are stored behind his house for a reason, he's had his realization that he'll never go back already: there's no sense in reopening that wound again if he has an option to avoid the topic.

sorry i keep seeing chappell roan’s situation compared to britney spears and amanda bynes…. pretty distasteful to compare someone struggling to cope with the invasiveness of newfound fame with two women who were. groomed and abused by all adults around them from the time they were literally barely old enough to go to school lolz. who by all accounts had fame thrust upon them when they were not of an age to make an informed decision about being a public figure. idk read the room on that one maybe

Had the extremely upsetting experience of a mutual of like 6 years going off on me for occasionally making posts about supporting Harris because apparently that makes me a g n cide denier who refuses to learn and grow, with all of my views just being assumed not even from what I've told them I believe or what I've posted before, but just because I DON'T post particularly the kind of things they THINK I should be. When I pointed out how much they were just completely assuming about stuff I'd never talked to them about, I was told it doesn't matter what I do in real life or "care" about if I simply disagree with their conclusion and vote for her anyway. Like they were absolutely not sorry for the level of maliciousness they not just assumed of my character, but for some reason thought appropriate to bring directly to me before unfollowing me. No apology whatsoever for how discomforting or upsetting that might be and certainly no acknowledgment that I could disagree with them and still be a good person. I just got another even longer rant about how they fundamentally can't fuck with me because of this one thing, no matter WHAT else I do in my real life (which I pointed out that they do not know), and how I'm directly supporting fascism.

Like seriously what is it about Tumblr that makes people think they know someone based off of occasional posts? There were just such DEEP assumptions they were making of me and going off of very little or absolutely nothing. Around the time I first became mutuals with that person I used to express my personality and beliefs and talk about what was going on in my life a lot more openly, but I've significantly scaled back on doing that in many ways for many reasons. One of my major ones is privacy and the way I've had strangers outside my followers and following circles just find random things I say and dogpile me for it. I was fundamentally changed after some T Fs did that to me like 3 years ago. I also just didn't have many conversations w that person anymore (I message people in general on here like 10x less than I did circa 2018-2019, which I'm somewhat sorry about!). My point is to say I think this person felt comfortable assuming that they knew me, especially who I am in 2024 at the age of 25, much better than they actually did.

One of the specific things they accused me of was being afraid of learning and growing (because I don't perform social media activism on here like they think I should). Like AFRAID to take criticism. When again I've never received criticism from them or had to respond to any criticism on here before as pertaining to my views on... well, absolutely any of the issues they accused me of not caring about. They essentially treated it as if the only thing in the world I cared about was the US election and characterized me as the most out-of-touch liberal they could possibly imagine, because I'm not "pushing" Kamala Harris to be better (Oh?? Should I do that on here?? Does she read my blog??).

And most hypocritically what they said was that I only *sometimes* *vaguely* post pro-Harris things (I often post like 5 or fewer things in a day though?). But here's the kicker. "Because I know I'll get shit for it. And rightfully so."

Really????? Not a single person, anon or not, in my messages or in a tagged post or anything, has ever given me shit before for saying who I'm voting for. I'm actually NOT afraid of "getting shit" for that opinion, I just don't start fights with people who are anti-voting. And why should I??? I genuinely don't believe in trying to change the minds of strangers on the internet about that sort of thing. I'm just not confrontational about it; that is so not the same thing as being "afraid of getting shit." I'm not posting ENOUGH about my support for Harris, therefore I'm afraid. But therefore they can also make all these assumptions about me being their strawman for an ignorant Harris supporter.

I'm afraid of getting shit but I still post anyway? But if I weren't afraid of getting shit I'd be posting a lot more?? This is ALL based on their assumptions of what my blog *should* look like, based on what I really and truly believe. My level of posting every now and then is an accurate gauge of my feelings on complex, sensitive, global issues. Because I'm voting for the Democratic presidential candidate and I'm ok sharing pretty much just that little glimpse of myself.

I really don't think that person knows just how inappropriate and insulting that is to just say all of that to me. Like they really know what's going on in my head. Their first message began and ended with like "I'm sorry I love you I just can't take it anymore" but they clearly weren't sorry enough to try and be more respectful to me, and they didn't love me enough not to default to extremely ungenerous assumptions and attacking me based off of those instead of any actual words I've said that they take issue with.

Online radicalization is real and it's not necessarily bad because your political views can start to fall well out of the contemporary Overton window. The way you find it appropriate to treat people whose views, however common, seem to fundamentally misalign with yours... that does matter. You can't just assume the worst of everyone and then act on that in how you approach them as individuals. And then be shocked that you don't stay friends with them. You can't be confrontational with someone about an issue you've never had an honest conversation about, and then expect them to take your bad faith in them as reasonable well-meaning criticism.

I'm afraid of criticism??? I'm afraid of criticism. No I'm not. This person and I have never had an issue before where they criticized me and I got harshly defensive. It was ALL projection. The entire tone of their messages was as if all their anti-voting posts recently were somehow in communication with the occasional go-vote-for-Harris posts that I make. That's not a conversation. I don't post for your satisfaction. I don't post in "response" to my mutuals I disagree with. I just post what's on my mind, sometimes, about some things. I really again can't stress enough how baffled I am by this

I was so brave and finally asked her about it and turns out she did not break up with her long distance girlfriend because she likes me, she did it because she thinks she’s bi instead of a lesbian and wants to try dating men. lmao

people really do not know what they're talking about when it comes to Elizabeth Woodville's social status, huh?

i think a lot of fans just instinctively assume that chloe and max breaking up means they don’t love each other anymore, when i don’t at all think that’s the case? while falling out of love is very common, and is the usual reason for seperation, there are many other factors at play sometimes. many people get back with their exes, or believe in the ‘right person wrong time’ idea … love and relationships aren’t as simple as together or not together. even if pricefield never got together again, this wouldn’t necessarily imply that they have ever stopped loving each other — or that they wouldn’t be there for the other when it counted. their bond is simply too strong and exists outside of a simple ‘girlfriend’ label, always has! pricefield has never had an apt term for them that fully encapsulates what they are to each other, because nothing quite fits them ; two halves of a whole, forever entangled, betrayed and hurting but in love, etc etc. i don’t even think ‘soulmates’ is an apt term, because frankly? they are not that either. very much not so, by a traditional means.

i guess all i’m getting at is that i perhaps didn’t find the breakup devestating because it’s so clear there is love and loyalty still there, or that there should be anyway. chloe is not any less loyal for breaking up with max and wanting to live a seperate life. just like max isn’t any less in love with her simply because she can move on and form something for herself, without all the blackwell pain attached. i have no doubt in my mind that if max called chloe, genuinely needing her, chloe would travel across the whole world to be there … and vice versa! it isn’t your stereotypical happy ending, but i don’t think it’s as devestating as people make it out to be either. i don’t believe chloe nor max could ever cut themselves apart fully, and them still following each other on crosswalk and chloe still texting max proves that somewhat. as does the save chloe ending where moses asks if max is done hiding from her, to which she implies she will be. it is hardly an ending for them, you know? they will never really end, even in the scenario where chloe is dead. while i agree pricefield could’ve had more of a focus, i also think fans are overreacting to what happened to them … or, to be honest, i find the route being taken to be vastly more interesting and true to their trauma, their rather complex relationship, and the likes.

Hawke: You knew my grandparents? Elthina: I dedicated your mother into the Chantry. She was a beautiful baby. Your grandmother was a very proper lady, but she was beside herself that day. And your mother put a fist in my eye.

Suddenly I like Leandra a little bit more. I mean, who hasn't wanted to put a fist in Elthina's eye at some point during da2?

"Excuse me, Grand Cleric Elthina, a templar used your official seal to get away with kidnapping and murdering qunari." "Ah, well, the Maker will figure it out. The Chantry is a gentle mother who knows her children learn best when allowed to learn themselves."

"Hey, Elthina, the templars are abusing mages. They're forcing tranquility onto them for minor things, which is against the law, and it's only getting worse. Can't you do something?" "It's not my place to decide who is right, but the Maker will eventually."

"Damn it, Elthina, my mother and several other women were murdered by an actually dangerous blood mage because the templars and city guard couldn't be bothered to do their jobs!" "Ah, I'm sorry, that's so unfortunate. May your mother find a place at the Maker's side."

"ELTHINA the qunari beheaded the Viscount and now Meredith has taken complete control over Kirkwall and is looking for any excuse to annul the entire Circle with her Andraste complex, will you PLEASE do something to stop her before more people die??" "Hmmm, I see, but no. The Maker's time isn't man's time, we have no need to rush."

"Listen, you useless moron, you need to leave Kirkwall because shit's about to go down." "No, I will not leave. Who would hurt me? I'm Grand Cleric."

Even as a baby, Leandra knew this lady was an awful person. This is why you got blown up, Elthina.

there’s always been this discussion about who the villain in ysblf is and ive seen tiktok comment sections call betty the villain for sexist reasons (she took marcela’s man even tho that’s not what happened) or that armando was the villain bc he’s the one who lied to both women---that marcela’s a victim and did nothing wrong. it varies. and like yeah, all three of them did bad things to themselves and to each other. that doesn’t make them villains, it just makes them well written characters. 

if anyone’s a villain, it’s mario calderon. he truly does not care about anyone but himself. he doesn’t care who he hurt. on top of that, he never apologizes to beatriz or armando for the letter he wrote. he only supports armando going after betty once she changes her appearance. he was the one who was distrustful of her and nicolas bc of their class. he’s the one who causes armando, who he knows is easy to rattle, to be paranoid. 

armando recognizes his wrongdoing and suffers the consequences of his actions. he begs for forgiveness. he worries he’ll never have another opportunity to show beatriz that what he felt was true. mario is witness to this but he doesn’t care. he believes its all lost cost. and then continues to conspire against him ( bc margarita told him to and bc it’s an easy order to follow) by telling armando to get over it bc she betrayed him and her disappearing is a sign of her trying to keep the company. that’s not a friend. that’s not even a good person.  there’s a reason why that friendship (if u can call it that) is dissolved by the end--bc armando isn’t the same person he was at the beginning but mario is.

This Latina lady just came up to me complaining about the outcome and how her daughter and son couldn’t even get out of bed and were crying all night- (I was smiling at first and asked her how she was doing and she replied “shitty-“ and started going in- and even though idgaf, I know that sm others so do like I’m not about to laugh in another brown persons face for being emotional even though it is what it is 😭.)
