If you saw me agreeing with being annoyed about wasted helium in a fictional context and were like "I bet she has some more helium based anger in her life" good news LAPD fucked up a raid on a medical facility they thought was a pot farm and flat out ruined thousands of gallons of the stuff.
#Back in the day the lab I worked in went through the stuff at a hell of a rate#But that was to actually do something at least#It's also fucking humiliating that a SF paper gets to write up our cops being dipshits#I am so fucking mad about both these aspects the wasted helium and that SF gets to laugh at us#I wrote a very very angry email to my city councilor but I do that like twice a week and I don't think he reads them or anything#So I suspect this one will also not move much

I don't wanna further hijack that poor poll, but the thing about Harrow's schizophrenia is that it's canon. The author has confirmed it, and shared that it's based on her own experience.
It's a pretty obscure bit of canon, so of course there's no shame in not already knowing, but that's why I'm so obnoxiously persistent about letting people know.
Whatever else is up with Harrow, autism or cptsd or any number of likely headcanons, she is also schizophrenic. I feel like that's too important to be handwaved away as a difference of opinion.
#like of course not everyone knows I'm not the kind of asshole who gets mad about someone not having heard about an unrecorded con panel#not knowing is one thing#erasing or ignoring that aspect of her is something completely different#like yeah she's incredibly relateable in that way#and I know how comforting it can be to project your own dx onto someone and go 'wow shes just like me fr'#but I really feel like doing that re: Harrow's schizophrenia is a huge lost opportunity for growth#and I hate that the takeaway for so many people is 'Harrow is autistic'#and not 'oh cool didn't know autism and schizophrenia had so much overlap in experience'#relate to psychotic people without flinching challenge#anyway. tl;dr:#if you didn't already know then I have the coolest new fun fact about Harrow to share with you!!#if you do already know but have elicted to ignore it then a little bit fuck you actually#but I will ALWAYS assume someone didn't know before assuming they're being a dick#the locked tomb#harrow nonagesimus#harrowhark nonagesimus#harrow the ninth

like I do think we need to acknowledge that being asexual can suck. I'm proud to be queer and I'm happy for everyone whose experience is different but for me, specifically, being asexual sucks. If I had the choice, I would change this about myself. The ways in which it affects my life are frustrating and upsetting to me and it's not just a question of accepting myself or 'coming to terms with' who I am, it is a very real impact on my interactions and relationships with other people, my existence in my community, and what the rest of my life will look like. I think it's important to talk about this not only in the context of the very real discrimination and exclusion that asexuals experience as a consequence of acephobia but also just the frustration of having so many choices and experiences taken away from you just because of your orientation
#dottie rambles#vent post#like it sucks!!!#it's hard to accept that there is this whole huge aspect of human and interpersonal experience that you just don't get to have#and depending of where you fall on the spectrum and your personal experience of asexuality#this will be different for many people and that's okay#obviously i am not mad at people who do not feel this way#but for me it is still very hard and only seems to get harder#the more i learn about myself and who i am and what i want

I just saw a post on TikTok claiming Dr. Ratio wouldn’t be a monster fucker, my day is ruined my fields have gone sallow my water is poisoned HOW DARE YOU.
Dr Veritas Ratio IS NOT A MONSTERFUCKER?!?!! IN WHAT DIMENSION. YOU’RE TELLING ME MR. KNOWLEDGE LOVING MAN WOULDN’T BE CURIOUS?!
HE WOULDN’T LOOK AT AVENTURINES BOSS FORM AND GO “would” LIKE?!??
They also said he would judge people for it?!?? In what universe would Ratio give a singular fuck about that. The only one in which this take makes sense is if you hc him as aroace and having absolutely no desire to fuck anything, because if anything Ratio would 100% find fucking a monster to be more enjoyable because it’s a new experience
#dr ratio#hsr#aventio#suggestive#This take makes me just as mad as the other ratio mischaracterizations#Because like as silly as it is#if you don’t think ratio would f an monster you are going to get every other aspect of his character wrong

ppl attacking mythal as if solas is any better he used lavellan too (and by extension any inquisitor he had a friendship with)
he entered a relationship with lavellan KNOWING it was wrong from the start but did it anyway, his dialogue on the inquisitor wanting to pursue a relationship reflects this
he says “I’m not sure this is the best idea. It could lead to trouble”
if the inquisitor apologizes for kissing him he blurts out that she has nothing to apologize for or if she feels like she’s pressuring him after the kiss he says she isn’t at all he’s ‘perhaps’ just pressuring himself. He knows it’s wrong. Also his distance reflects that as well. He tries to pull away several times bc he knows it’s wrong and yeah he admits he was selfish for getting involved with her.
not saying he did it specifically to be a manipulative asshole I don’t think he’s some mustache twirling villain but in general one is less likely to see the faults in someone they are dating/in love with
just bc lavellan pursues him of her own volition (under false pretenses, mind you) doesn’t mean it’s less problematic especially because he’s being VERY vague about why it’s not the best idea to get romantically involved.
Also to add, the balcony scene that locks you in his romance, he’s talking about mythal but in so many words. He hasn’t seen the wisdom the inquisitor has since his experiences in the Fade… where he was a spirit and close to mythal.
“it would be kinder in the long run, losing you would be…” this man is talking about MYTHAL and her betrayal and death
it’s pretty obvious that he was seeing the inquisitor as mythal throughout inquisition if he has high approval/romance
#I’m sorry but he’s no sad little baby he’s a grown ass man 😭#he did the same thing mythal did except lavellan didn’t start the blight#mythal getting all this hate bc solavellans mad jealous he loved someone else before her#like he knew lavellan for a year and knew mythal for centuries 😭#not saying his feelings for lavellan aren’t real or he doesn’t love her but the relationship has problematic implications as well#attacking mythal is just being a plain misogynist#she isn’t perfect and there are problematic aspects of her relationship with solas but to act like she’s this evil groomer is wild#da:tv spoilers#veilguard spoilers#datv spoilers#mythal#solas#solavellan critical

Thinking about Danny Phantom but as found footage/analogue horror. Like, it works SO incredibly well and I'm a bit obsessed.
Inexplicably grainy FentonWorks lab footage? A ghost dissection video log that gets more disturbing the longer it goes on? Ambiguous morality? Distorted imagery? Something being very, very wrong with the Fenton's son?
The proto-portal test footage from the 80s???? followed by hospital quarantine reports describing what a fatal dose of ecto-contaminants looks like? Which is then interrupted by Ṽ̵͇͍̓̒̕l̷̛͕̜̞̬͒̔͑̾̊͊a̷̝̰͕̗͇̣̓́́d̶̢̬̳̗̻̖̄̒̓̈́͌̚̕ ̴̡̛̱̱́́͆͠ͅw̷͎̬̠͒̐́̈́̈̇̚ā̵̢̢̛͔͙́͒̚͝k̴̡̹̘̻̜͇̬̍̏̄͂̊̀͠i̸̙͋͗̄ṅ̸̢̳̻̠̦̬͌̍͐͐̅͠g̶͇̥̮̦̗͑̃͘ ̶̨̏̈́̆͠ṳ̷͉̩̮̙̄̇͜p̸̧̡̹̗͇͘ and turning the hospital upside down?
#analogue horror is really good at presenting The Horrors in ways that are so casual and yet so disturbing#and leaning into the horror aspect of DP is incredibly appealing to me in a lot of ways#Honestly there are so many routes one could go with this#lab trial footage from Vlad's cloning experimentation?#GIW case files?#Heck even a lesser focused on ghost like Nocturne (or nearly any of them tbh) could easily carry a couple of spooky videos all on their own#I'm particularly partial to something focused on Jack and Maddie's home lab though.#Plus exploration of their college days#show. me. vlad's. descent. into madness. via grainy VHS tape hospital footage. i beg you.#danny phantom#text

I wonder if it ever drove Rimmer mad that he couldn’t eat while he was a soft-light hologram.
Cus back in his childhood, he couldn’t have food unless he answered astro-navigation questions correctly. So I wonder if he went bonkers with insecurity because since he didn’t fix the drive plate correctly, he was then being punished with no food nearly permanently.
Yes, Rimmer can have hologram food, but is it the same? Plus we barely see him eat any food in soft-light mode except for one sandwich.
Or the other explanation is that when Rimmer was alive since he’s not used to having food unless he’s actively hungry so he doesn’t eat at all. So when he died, there is no hunger therefore no excuse to eat really.
But even though he doesn’t need to eat himself, he bears in mind that others do. Like in Marooned when Rimmer listed out available foods for Lister to eat and told him to pace himself. Also in Tikka to Ride, when the crew had to set up camp for the night in Dallas and he told Kryten to get food (even though he did cook a dead man they found on the street).
Whenever Rimmer gets a body temporarily, the first thing he does is eat something. Maybe because of the pent up hunger over the years or something I dunno. So I think when he finally got a hard-light body, he probably thought his probation was released and was no longer getting punished.
The man probably has a complicated relationship with food all his life leading to eating disorders and such. But I don’t think we see him eat at all after becoming hard-light after Legion except for sipping tea and that’s it.
#red dwarf#arnold rimmer#dave lister#kryten#cat red dwarf#do you think he’s constantly hungry as a hologram since he’s dead and all#its another aspect in soft-light that he’s dead and can’t eat to feel human#course then adding on childhood trauma#it then doubles as something that will drive him near mad#and gazpacho soup probably adds onto his complicated relationship with food as well#he has a lifelong battle with food doesn’t he

my sister and i just yapped for almost three hours and we were just talking about how genuinely weird people in fandom are surrounding characters who have explicit mental illness. like they can never ever be normal. there are characters who are romanticised and glamourised for their mental illness (eren. wanda. joker. kaneki. nico. almost any danganronpa/ddlc character). characters who are consistently ridiculed for their mental illness either because it simply isn’t getting taken seriously (reiner) or because no one takes the character seriously (armin). and there are the characters that get blatantly outright DESPISED for it (basil, harry potter, korra, gale, also eren etc etc). like yes im seeing a correlation but its still so astounding how selective people are about where they draw the line with mental illness and what traits they can accept.
#*like yes this can be about ootp harry but this post is ESPECIALLY about older harry potter from the cursed child#this post was originally gonna be about basil because damn he does not deserve the hate he gets#omori fandom PLEASE stop policing how children react to their own trauma PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEA#theres also definitely a gendered aspect to it cuz yknow for sure that catra wouldve been a poster child if she was a guy#+ annie leonheart & korra & katniss & aubrey & (controversial) akito. ppl like women spiralling into madness without redemption tho. hnm#all these characters need compensation for this its not even funny#disclaimer: this is not a criticism of the way each characters mental illness is depicyed but a criticism of fandom etiquette towards it#omori basil#harry potter#cursed child#aot#attack on titan#reiner braun#eren yeager#armin arlert#wanda maximoff#katniss everdeen#the hunger games#gale hawthorne#legend of korra#avatar korra#dc joker#kaneki ken#danganronpa#tokyo ghoul#nico di angelo#pjo#percy jackson#rewriting#yall when mental illness makes someone who is suffering so insanely a bit unlikeable: 🤯🤯

It is once again “why didn’t they let ryuji have any empathy for yusuke” era. Nothing like a game establishing that both of them have abusive/neglectful/awful dads and then instead of ryuji trying to connect with yusuke and show him that madarame is abusing him, he just gets angry at him?? For what????? Why???? There was so much potential
#ryuji sakamoto#yusuke kitagawa#I just think!! it’s a waste!! of potential!!!!#yeah here are these two characters with difficult home lives. one has a mother he loves and can turn to. one is entirely on his own#and for some reason ryuji seems to hate yusuke for defending madarame?#I understand it could work with his character or with his experiences that he gets defensive about yusuke not listening#maybe it’s uncomfortable for him to see someone who is doing what he did before he realised his dad was a bad person#but ultimately. this is an aspect of their relationship that really should have been there#and I can’t believe atlus fumbled this opportunity.#I’ll never stop being mad about it#persona 5#p5#p5r#persona 5 royal

Can you talk about trans!Curly a little bit more? I'm curios if you have any headcanons and the like
-💀
It's just such a thing in my mind because it adds a truthful sadness and differing aspect to mouthwashing.
If Curly was trans it adds the horror of the horribly selfish thought he could have easily been in Anya's situation. It could've been him but it wasn't and he so conflicted on the pit it put in his stomach that brings and the shameful relief it wasn't. In this scenario he is friends with Jimmy for a long time still. Jimmy likely knew him pretransition. Maybe he gave Curly weird looks then, maybe they never stopped after, maybe they seemed meaner. They are guys now, bros, both of them are. He doesn't really have to worry what those looks mean anymore, Jimmy just has that face with him sometimes. It's recontextualizing a lot of things for him that he was in denial about or too ashamed to admit. How naive he was being and how he let that get another person hurt.
Specifically with Anya, it's he knows the dread and fear she's feeling. He can understand it because he had to live with it for a good portion of his life, he knows it cause he still does, just in a slightly different way. It makes him think of all the times he's been alone with Jimmy, all the times he's been way more drunk off his ass and not remember the night, Jimmy was always with him the next day. Makes him think of the comments he would laugh off both because that's what guys do but because that part of being a girl says to laugh so Jimmy doesn't do something. It's the selfish realization that he was never safe and he's uncertain now too. Mad at himself for forgeting that feeling, espcially since for a long time he would've been considered the only woman on a crew (with all that implies) for a long time.
He should've taken those blinders off, step back into that position for just a moment and it's so much more painful that Anya likely came to him because he should've gotten it. Those thoughts don't leave his mind after the crash when he's in an even more vulnerable position than she was...
#this is less headcanons and more my thoughts of the intersectional horror this brings to mouthwashing which is also a thing it#already has but more directly in the mix vs just the class gender and positional struggle. like the idea he waited to confront Jimmy becaus#he could conceptualize the crime better because of experience with womanhood and also how it would've destroyed him in terms of being trans#like its weird to word as a comparison but thats kinda how empathy works as in an understanding and ability to project through aspects#like you found out your friend who has always had weird feelings about and relating to you is a rapist and got one of your other friend#pregnant and is now being openly hostile and aggressive towards you. You have only a few days to really think on all of this all the years#with him and how many oppurtunites he had that you blame yourself for giving him both in life and to do to you. You are starting to#realize that he may have done what he did to Anya because it was no longer viable with him or because of weird transphobia/homophobia#from Jimmy and god its so much and he should've know better and what did Jimmy do then - c r a s h#he is at such a small amount of mercy to Jimmy now and he can't protect Anya and it's terrifying because i know and you know that Jimmy is#giving him those weird looks again...#like it adds another layer of horror to things and while I don't think Jimmy would do anything to Curly it's heavily implied he targeted he#because of relatively more important position and getting Curly to have doubts about him as a power play and Curly knows Jimmy well enough#that him immediately exerting his authority and power would set him off after already having been mad about it and even when doing#damage control it still set him off. like its the horror of accidenlty siding with your oppresser and hurting other like you only to then b#stabbed in the back again by the person who took advantage of your nature like its so complext but my actual trans curly headcanons#are just a little bit happier like i imagine he was the first on the boys soccer team and a star player. maybe he and jimmy even picked ou#his first offical “boy” clothes and Jimmy picked most so he looked like the grungiest white boy but she was a boy so it didn't matter cause#it was with his friend who accepted him and I bet on the bed he looks back at all those moments and notices the little details that his#friend wasnt actually so happy but he can't be certain when he started looking so bitter or hes just imagining out of paranoia cause he jus#cant know and even if he could he wouldn't want to ask like god thinking about Anya and probably being a little glad if not heartbroken#that she did get out of it in the end like trans curly and anya destroy me even more its so upsetting like he didn't realize how much he go#you girl and waited to act like it was cowardice but then would she not realize what hes realizing? should that be a grace or more of a#condemnation in her mind like what are her thoughts? espically during the scene Jimmy hits Curly like she had to hear and what did she thin#they are tormented in a similar hells with the same demon and its fascinating#mouthwashing#mouthwashing game#anya mouthwashing#curly mouthwashing#jimmy mouthwashing

Something I feel often goes unrecognized in discussion of Harry Osborn is the fact that he is the Only Child of a Single Parent.
In my experience/observation (both real and fictional) the only child/single parent bond is so inexorable it's hard to fully comprehend. Few other things will bind two people together in such a way.
Like many familial relationships, it's full of a thousand little hurts that will probably never get brought up again. Sometimes you let the relationship go by the wayside in pursuit of your own life goals because you take it for granted that family will always be around. But there's a unique flavor to it.
Deep down inside you there's an awareness that it's Just The Two Of You. For the child, it may have been just the two of you from your very earliest memories. Sure, you know other people. There are extended family and friends and maybe the parent has a romantic partner or two. But at the end of the day, in your home, in your hearts (something you carry with you no matter where you go) the two of you are all you have and all you feel you can really depend on.
A world in which the two of you aren't together is almost impossible to picture and you don't want to try, even in the moments you wish you could just get away from each other. Being an only child separated from a single parent for the first time ‐ even on normal and amicable terms like when you move out on your own - makes you realize, again and again, how many ways your parent has influenced you. The things you say that you heard from them first, the habits, the opinions. You love them, but sometimes it feels like they still... OWN you, even though you are your own person. Sometimes that frightens you, but the alternative is even more frightening.
Like all love, it'll make you behave selfishly and irrationally at times.
And it'll really make you DEFENSIVE.
If you're Harry Osborn and complain a bit about your dad being a dickhead while deep down wondering if he really even cares about you, that's one thing. But if anyone says a word against him in your presence you have to backtrack. You have to argue in his defense because he's all you have and you're all he has. Loss would unbearable.
Look, guys. It has been years since Harry and Norman Osborn have gotten along or been able to really enjoy each other's company, if they ever could. But if anything happened to the other they would kill everyone in this room and then themselves, do you understand what I'm saying?
#i've seen comic panels where norman is on the verge of going back to being the goblin#and he's thinking 'i must be going mad but if something bad happens to me who will look after harry'#my brother in christ YOU are the bad thing that is happening to him#also when is someone going to draw the osborns with the 'i just wish you liked me' scene from ladybird#it should be noted my analysis is mostly based on the raimiverse but i don't think that's missing the whole picture#i think this may apply to most harrys to some degree#even the '94 cartoon had this to some extent though it was more from norman's side... wish that show cared about harry#kinda feel like i exorcised a demon making this post#hope it opens some eyes to this aspect of the character#harry osborn#norman osborn#green goblin#spider-man#raimiverse#op
