A lot of people like to say that because Annabeth doesn’t have any powers, she’s weak but I think the fact that she doesn’t have powers and has accomplished so much makes her the opposite
#annabeth chase#pjo#annabeth chase the woman you are#annabeth chase is my hero#annabeth chase is not weak#leah sava jeffries#heroes of olympus#she did almost every single quest with percy#she keeps up with the children of the big 3#she’s an important member of the 7#she found the mark of Athena#she’s architect and hero of olympus#she fought#survived#and won two wars#she went to tartarus and back#all without powers#she doesn’t need powers#leah is my annabeth#percy jackson#percy jackson and the olympians#mark of athena#the last olympian#people who choose to hate her are missing out

anakin: cody... what are you eating.
cody, chewing:
anakin: are those oats? that's... disgusting!
obi-wan, chuckling softly with a hand rested on his commanders shoulder: it's an acquired taste, anakin. not everyone appreciates the finer things in life.
cody:
cody: does skywalker NOT eat bugs?
#commander cody#star wars the clone wars#obi wan kenobi#codywan#obi wan x cody#incorrect quotes#codywan incorrect quotes#anakin skywalker#cc 2224#codys oats pt two honestly#obi-wan did have to de-escalate an argument after this though his bf has a point#cody won#cody always wins#we <3 cody#obi-wan even tried them himself afterwards

the izuocha vs bakudeku shipwar not dying off being getting STRONGER after the manga ended is SOOOO funny. I really enjoy watching it go down. I’ll scroll by a reel of one bashing the other and it’s just so entertaining. The manga ended and no one won and they’re both throwing rocks harder at each other.
and I think one of the things that makes it so absurdly funny to me is that, I’ve never seen a fandom-wide HUGE ship war, like THE ship war of the fandom, THE brawl for who gets the protagonist, be between a straight and gay ship. Talk about diversity in mainstream media, amirite? Like OF COURSE it’s bnha the fandom known for its gay shipping, but, bnha is still a shounen anime!! It has a LOT of dudebros! The bnha fandom has a lot of queers and a lot of dudebros, and you thought bnha was done? No, this is THE final battle, and they’re going head to head duking it all out.
#I know I’ve had my gripes about ship wars but this is literally so funny#like think of regular fandom big ship wars between the two big straight ships and people compromising for the gay ship.#no. now the GAY ship is one of the competitors and I call that progress.#and bakudeku basically started out as a CRACK ship. I mean it was HATED fandom wide#and now it’s literally head to head with THE “protag x the first girl he meets” ship.#Do you understand how funny this is???#bnha#boku no hero academia#mha#my hero academia#izuocha#bakudeku#ack#text post#AND NONE OF THEM WON BAHAHAHAHAHAHA

hc for Katsuki's sidekicks:
two sidekicks who are UA 3rd years/just graduated and they're both girls and very competitive rivals who are very serious in their job and they both grew up admiring Katsuki's skills, passion and spirit when he's fighting so they want to surpass him (that's why he accepted them). But they don't really like each other and get annoying sometimes because they fight and argue a lotttt, like imagine they're in a mission and are arguing through the comms and Katsuki is so annoyed and face palming telling them to "FOCUS IDIOTS" but he secretly smiles because it reminds him of his rivalry with deku when they were young.
They also spent their 1st and 2nd year internships with Katsuki and he trained them soooo hard because he sees boys and girls equally and also saw so much potential in those two. that made them so happy (I'm assuming their society is still misogynist like it was during the sport festival)
#Katsuki being a hero dad and mentoring the girls#They're going to be a great team#Those two have strong quirks and no one else has ever let them to exceed their limits except Katsuki#Because now “everything is peaceful and heros won't be needed” but my hc is Katsuki is one of the few ppl who never believed it#Omg maybe i write more about these ocs and make some personalities for them#Katsuki Bakugou#Bakugo Katsuki#Katsuki Bakugo#Bakugo#Katsuki#mha oc#Bakugou Katsuki#Mha#Bnha#My hero academia#mha headcanons#my hcs#mha hcs#Basically all interns or side kicks before them were snowflakes and cried each time he was harsh on their training except these two#I need to give them some back stories I already have some ideas hahaha#And no they are NOT childhood friends or even in the same class but one of them is in A the other one in B but they're rivals#They saw the war in childhood and since then Katsuki is like their idol because he saved all might even though he was in a terrible physica#Conditions and won against afo while he was so damn cool and having a grin#Omg imagine when they were still in their school would fight and say ranking system is shit and dynamight deserves better#But when they are sidekicks years later it's not fan/idol relationship anymore they would be true team workers but still are kinda fans yk#Sidekicks hc#Dynamight sidekicks

we sang in the aeroplane over the sea tgth ☆
#27% circle line with a lovely friend of mine rail tracks screeching etc etc u know the usual. im just gonna write down memories#a few weeks ago my friend read thus spoke zarathustra by the fire to the music she was dancing it was her silhouette#against the flashlight lit up gold and royal blues and tiger's silk i tried not to fall in love with her. in bordeaux we searched#for pomegranates he sent her 300 quid by the beach she cut it open with a knife her hand covered in red we each had a taste of her work#sweet red wet the sweetest grit. too barely clothed to go into the cliffside church they painted my eyes we painted hers#8 shots of gin she screamed joyfully IT'S ALIVE! at the book she said become the child i said i feel like a monster she said i was insane#i tried to believe her. fortified wine and later a red pen crossword defiled by humidity her hair in my hands two king sized beds#pushed next to each other she took her top off she told us to watch her arms raised up the musculature on her back was precise cut from#marble we saw oceans we saw the birds take cold baths the midnight sun over a wasp-infested pool our chemicals in their bodies#gold flakes dark skin gold cross shoulders against mine drawing some form of each other on the train i didn't hesitate#to say her eyes were beautiful over and over monks at the soapshop with titanium credit cards i loved you like i loved no other#he tied his hair up and walked us into the river he held a bullet between his lips i never held his hand he said what an honour#you own too much capital your mother thinks i'm a natural i realised i haven't told my mother i loved her in years she's always been mother#never mom i'll watch you watch seaweeds this is terminal akrasia i'll feel your fingers smear perfume on my lips your girlfriend grins#bite into the straw take the shot hold my hand get it all wrong draw in the sand kiss him right stab through leather shower in chlorine#you're the determinable vicissitude is all yours we won the Game AND the Battle AND the War i'm proud of you like crazy we feed each other#saffron cliffside lovers well-fallen brothers fat cats blue windows southwest sun ALife SynBio design aXAA grow us a city in silico#we've grown to the ends of glee fire-jumper ocean-eater sure-footed lists on lists hands on eyelids не устану искать тебя#...anyway ive put my face on this blog b4 but hiii again#feel free to rb btw the rants r not personal

Reading With the Old Breed thoughts Part 11:
On Okinawa, I love that Sledge and his group adopted a native horse- for reference, I have attached a picture of these cuties, known as Yonaguni ponies. They took care of it, and used to it to carry ammo boxes etc. When they were going to move into the combat zone, they had to leave it behind, and Sledge admitted to crying watching the horse go. It was very sweet, and I am also very sad as well, Sledge, I would cry too.
Also a sweet note- there was a native pony that got stuck and all the horse lovers/Texans immediately gravitated to the area and worked together to get it free. As a Texan, I love that we're just lumped in as automatically horse lovers in Sledge's mind lol. Yes, Sledge, we are all cowboys here, gotta love the stereotype.
- I say as someone who does actually horse ride and is a lover of horses....
also shout out to wintersangels69's fic "to the state fair" that features the horse on ao3. it's very sweet.
#the pacific#eugene sledge#hbo war#company's k's pony#marines adopting animals is such a theme#dunno if anyone knows about devil duck but it's a wild story that is very true and honestly pretty funny#marines won a duck and thought why not take it on two beach assaults

It’s always confused me how Sifo-Dyas had visions of a horrible doom future and came up independently with this idea that the only way to prevent it was ordering up a clone army. And yes, I understand “see Order 66/the Republic attacked by an army, decide they need an army TOO” but it just doesn’t logically flow very smoothly. When have the Jedi used an army? Why leap to that as a Plan A?
But it makes a lot more sense if he had visions of the Clone Wars. Visions that specifically included the partnership between the Jedi and the clones.
So he would have seen brave, intelligent clones working alongside Jedi, collaborating on a thousand different worlds. He would have seen them covering each other’s back, fighting side by side against literal and figurative monsters. He would have seen the Jedi Order fundamentally changing and growing alongside these people, perhaps even the future that never came to pass after winning the war. And the connections during it: Jedi wearing armor, forming bonds of respect and camaraderie, clones attached to “their” Jedi. Family units developing. Friendships, romances, sibling relationships...
He would have seen Cody throwing Obi-Wan his dropped lightsaber for the dozenth time. And as a lifelong Jedi, he would have deeply understood the significance of that act. The trust.
If Sifo-Dyas truly believed the battle for the end of their world was coming, maybe for him, it wasn’t about just getting an army, it was about making that army. One built on mutual respect and absolute trust. It was seeing those exact people and the connections that would bloom there, and working backwards from that conclusion to make it exist.
#Sifo-Dyas just watching the Clone Wars 2008 series in his head but missing the last season#he’s like Dooku I only have one question why is your bed so big two questions what the fuck is up with your monogrammed pajamas#but really this question fascinates me about what exactly Sifo-Dyas saw and what he thought he was doing#especially because the war would have been won without direct sabotage from the Sith the clones never would have betrayed the Jedi otherwis#the jedi and clone after a won war peacetime AU kills me#the clone wars#projedi#clones#jedi order#sifo-dyas#I realize I tend to view Sifo-Dyas positively#and there could be much more cynical readings of the Clone Wars#but I'm just talking this out

I know that you can technically cobble together explanations as to why in-universe, but I will never not be extremely annoyed that Filoni's Super Special OC beat Darth Maul in a one-on-one fight when she hadn't even finished her padawan training, and Maul was one of the best warriors in the series. Like. It's so stupid. I hate it.
#kat rants#i'm rewatching the fight for fic reasons and just#that should not have happened#maul is able to take out pre vizsla without getting more than a scratch#and hold his own again qui-gon#who was trained by the best duelist in the order#he beat two jedi facing him together like it was an AFTERTHOUGHT#maul should have won#i don't care how special ahsoka is supposed to be#star wars#anyway

People r obsessed with Achilles when Diomedes king of Argos is literally right there ‘,:/
#This one’s more of a doodle#Not historically accurate at all plz spare me#My art#i just think hes neat#like he literally stabbed two gods#And has a huge crush on Odysseus#And also won his first war at like 14#Slay (literally)#My fave#the iliad#diomedes#iliad art#And then like after committing all those war crimes according to Virgil he just became a farmer?? He’s great

habeas corpus – detective comics #1086
(ID in alt!)
#loved this back up feature so much and seeing that bruce timm shit made me annoyed enough to actually transcribe it#first the way hes depicted as having to stand trial and ARGUE and fight for the rights of using the coin#rather than it just being a compulsion and something he must do before a decision....#like every time. every time when he's 'leaving it up to chance'—thats a time when harvey won. thats a time when harvey fought for the right#to use the coin and make it at least a 50/50 chance instead of 'crawling away until the hard part is done' like two face pushed for#every single time. regardless of the results regardless of knowing theres only a halfway chance of it actually achieving anything#or lessening the damage two face can/will do. every time hes fighting for and still believing in a fair trial and that everyone deserves on#it isnt him being weak. it isnt him avoiding responsibility. its him fighting and forcing and pushing for it as hes internally at war#with himself 24/7. even when two face wins he doesnt give up & continues to fight for what he believes in despite the injustice done to him#the way he tells Judge Janus that it isnt about HIM (himself!) while defending the right of existence to the jury of other societal rejects#the way he gestures to himself only at the very end. he asks the judge does that sound like anyone he knows and janus replies in two faces#voice but harvey keeps going. he keeps fighting for others. but at the end in actually acknowledging two face being part of him#(and by extension harvey being part of two face) and how harvey is fighting just as much to have a place as two face is#(but more within his own mind & upholding his belief system still despite knowing how it continues to fail them) and just FUCK#and two faces snaps! how theres no jurisprudence system above there either ! just no one will admit it!#how harvey knows!!! look what happened to him when he was doing the right thing!#look how many criminals and mob bosses paid their way out! look how the police are corrupt!#but still believing in it and how a system has to be in place despite being a direct victim of it as well and just GOD#I LOVE YOU GOOD HEARTED AND WANTING TO HELP PEOPLE HARVEY DENT YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS TO ME !!!!!!!!#taking away how he genuinely wanted to help people and bring wrongs to rights takes away literally everything hes built on#it takes away the entire fucking tragedy of his character (and in many ways it changes how bruce himself operates and believes because#harvey WAS a good man doing everything by the books. he was trying to bring justice in the 'right way' and believed in the system. he was#what people tell bruce he should be and look where it got him. look how the system failed 'even the good ones' because the system itself is#corrupt. it isnt flawed—it was operated to oppress and thats why it cant just be fixed but must be entirely rebuilt and why bruce must#operate outside of it. it also gives more depth because harvey is one of batmans first and biggest failures. he didnt protect him.#he didnt save his parents as a helpless child (as bruce) but he couldn't save his parents as BATMAN.#it wasnt just random chance like his parents tragedy but this was calculated and something bruce didnt stop. its ALWAYS going to eat at#him if he could of prevented it by telling harvey his identity. by doing something different. by being more prepared or somehow#knowing it was going to happen. harvey is the face of tragedy in so many ways that cant fit in these messy rambly tags but its ALLL!!!!!!!#bc harv was (and still is despite it all! despite two face!) a good man!! because he originally was a glimmer of hope to bruce & the city!!

Liberators - bravest, most beautiful. Their smiles are shining like the sun. Happy birthday to the defeat of European fascism and may we see it lose again, and again, and again ❤️
#my dearest countrymen of Yugoslavia#look at how happy they were#every year it's so melancholic to remember my grandfathers who suffered under fascism and fought against it#knowing that fascism is rising once again and has since destroyed countries#brotherhoods#friendships and camaraderie and everything else between our nations is heartbreaking#I'm happy that every may 9th someone will remember their sacrifice#and especially happy that#despite Europe and the western world showing their ugly fascist face once again#more and more ordinary people and young people are carrying rememberance with them too#today is not 'europe day'#'europe day' is a farce and a cover made by grandchildren of those same nazis that raped and killed and genocided and pillaged my people#today is may 9th#victory day#day of victory over fascism and day to celebrate millions of young people who defeated the nazi evil#and i won't accept any fucking western revisionism of this#because this war was won by two units only#the brave ussr soldiers#and the brave partisans of the occupied countries#do not let germans and americans lecture you on how this war went - they were the murderers and the accomplices in it#happy victory day from this serbian yugoslav commie ❤️#and may we see the resistance of brave Palestinians defeat fascism once again

Mary Woodhull's solution to everything being "throw it in the fire" is very relatable. I love her a lot.

OUGH. theyre gonna really end a superhero comic with a tolstoy quote thematically accurate enough to kill on impact.
#I started reading these because i was interested in the guardians after the 3rd film and didnt wanna interact with the mcu...#and now i have a new absolute wet paper towel poor meow meow with every disease known and unknown to man#he would have won most mentally ill bitch on the block prize during the annihilation war but hes gotten 100 times worse over the 8 years#6 of them spent in basically hell#other two spent carrying an entire space army's/alien planet's legacy alone through several wars#holy shit dude get space therapy. or whatever.#also sam really nearly went and got stuck with him in the cancerverse huh.#i guess the nova helments only work on people who are reckless and self sacrificial and only have one functional braincell#he didnt have to do all that for a deeply deeply fucked up guy twice his age who hes just met. famous freshly not dead hero or not#marvelcomics#sam alexander

Mand’alor the Reluctant timeline where he still wants to give the job to literally anyone else, except for Bo-Katan and Paz Vizsla who are now fighting in the background for who gets to duel him for the sword first
Ideally Mando would just give it to the Armorer and put her in charge because she’s obviously the most qualified person he knows for the position, but the Armorer does reluctantly say that it needs to be won in ritual combat
“Yeah, so I’ve heard,” Mando mutters, obviously unhappy about said stipulation.
“That being said…” the Armorer says, pulling her hammer and calipers from the forge and squaring her stance;
“Din Djarin: I hereby challenge you for the title of Mand’alor.��
#Din’s stunned to silence for two seconds and when she says ‘‘Ready yourself.’’ he has another half second to react before he realizes:#She’s not joking. And this is a real duel.#He’ll have to legitimately defend himself if he wants to keep his bones intact.#the mandalorian#din djarin#the armorer#Star Wars au#hounds speaks#Hers is a hard-won victory but it means he can legitimately relinquish the weapon and title without disregarding tradition and history#I have this in a story down the line but it’ll take us a while to get there#Story of my life smh#Because yeah what WILL he do if someone he respects as an authority like her challenges him?#What happens when he realizes she’s not pulling her punches?
