Do you ever go insane thinking about how every member of Laios' party is extremely atypical for their species, but a lack of exposure and understanding smoothes out these differences and makes everyone think they're the "typical" representation.

Senshi is terrible with other dwarves since he has no practical interest in mining or weapons craft. We cannot know this until Namari and later, Senshi's backstory are introduced. When we see him interact with dwarves, it's awkward and clear there's a fundamental disconnect.

Chilchuck is incredibly tall for a half foot and as such has to manage his weight more than other half foot dungeoneers so he doesnt set off traps. The first detail takes the changlings to properly understand, the second is referenced in text but is fully explained in additional materials. It is plot relevant that people who don't have the exposure to half foots might not even realize they're their own species.

Marcille as a half elf is kind of obvious to many of the elves who encounter her and they're deeply cruel and assume she's driven by a desire to be able to have children but the party never notices and Senshi especially thinks of her as a typical elf even though in truth she's so outcast she could never dine with her mother at the queens table.

Laios and Falin are a bit more complicated, since we as the audience do have context for most of tallman culture, since it mirrors our own mostly, but both of them have magical aptitude that both people like Marcille, who has a lot of access to mana and people like Chilchuck, who has very little and no magical training, fail to understand how isolating it is to have that much potential and aptitude.

Arguably Toshiro and Namari fall into this as well. Toshiro looks like the embodiment of the silent but noble warrior, but his own party and extra material confirm that he's abnormally shy and introverted, something that makes it hard for him even in his own family. Meanwhile Namari is able to stand on her own as a weapons expert and "typical" dwarf, but total dwarves who are total strangers like Dya know who she is and resent her.

Arguably a lot of dungeon meshi is about peeling back layers and assumptions not working out, but it's so great that every member of the core party gets interpreted by others (and maybe the reader) as "typical", especially with the skills line up, as a human fighter, halfling rogue, and an elven mage are so basic a stereotype. But none of are able to achieve that standard. These assumptions and misunderstandings only thrive because each party member is so inexperienced with both the biology and culture of the others. The only way they gain context is either interacting with a wider pool of people or experiencing it for themself. Everything in this story is so layered and I love it.

Had to get some stuff fixed in my apt, and the maintenance guy came this morning at like 10 AM, which is a reasonable hour if you're not stupid like me with literally no sleep schedule

Anyway, I answer the door and he immediately v worriedly is like "Oh no, did I wake you? Do you work nights?" and I just like... v awkwardly nod and say yeah, bc there is no way in hell I'm admitting to this man that the real reason my dumbass was awake til 5 AM was bc I was reading gay TF2 fanfic for the third consecutive night

tried to test the waters by asking my mother what she would do if she had a gay child and she said that she'd have them sent to ghana (home country) to be purified. ok

"how dare kusakabe say this about yuji/gojo" how many people died in shibuya? how many died trying to stop sukuna? how many would have died if they hadn't miraculously won the battle in shinjuku?

this is not a simple matter of good versus bad decision, this is not a moral dilemma that can be solved in a black versus white way. yes, gojo saved yuji's life, but it was a huge gamble on his side and he didn't do it entirely out of good heart. did we forget already that yuji's execution was only postponed and the initial goal of gojo's plan was to kill him after he absorbed all 20 fingers?

i know it's easier to sympathize with yuji than with no face no name crowd - but do you think there were no young people, even children, among many slaughtered in shibuya? did their futures not matter? what makes yuji's life and future worth more than theirs?

and it's not like the story tries to hide this nuance from readers, this terrifying moral dilemma is a part of character development of many, yuji's himself as well. we got one whole opening, SPECIALZ, focused on that, it was pushed right into our eyes: look at the price they had to pay to keep the special one alive.

please, try to read into text a little deeper than from one perspective only. gojo wasn't a saint, he was never supposed to be one, he's a complex character and that nuance is what makes him so well written and loved.

and i don't get how some people try to paint kusakabe as some great evil when their beloved gojo himself admired him lol

hi, i unfortunately need help covering a combined bill that rounds to roughly ~$1500 due to the vehicle i share with my mother + my only transportation to work being suddenly very out of commission.

$500 is renting the cheapest vehicle we could for a week, the rest is for the part we need to repair it and the repair itself. the issues with it have already cost me hours at work.

i work 'full time' (a little under 40hrs) making minimum wage to support myself + my mom and our animals and we'd been coasting by despite having a $600 vet bill we were chipping away at. right now im prioritizing trying to get this $1500 off our backs.

if youre able anything helps, truly, even just reblogging this. thank you so much in advance (pls dont tag with b00st/etc)
