You did not care about me or my opinion or my feelings when you were casting your vote, why do you care about them now? You did not care about me then, why do you expect me to care about you now?
More, why do you want me to? You do not see me and mine as holding value as human beings, that's very clear. You have spent years insulting me with both word and deed. So why do you care if I like you?
I grew up with people like MAGA and Trump voters (notice I don't say Republicans -- my father was a Republican and he'd rather have eaten glass that supported this shit, my grandfather was a hard-core FDR Democrat who absolutely would have right with Trump on 90% of his most vile crap, "waste of oxygen" doesn't fit within normal party lines). I've had MULTIPLE people cut me off since 2016 for the fact I did not support him and made no secret of the fact it was because he's a Nazi (based upon he and the RMC's own choices and my historical knowledge.)
Not once was I mad. Not once did I think I had the right to them liking me. Not once did I even particularly care about them liking me. I was cool with each and every one of those people escorting themselves from my life.
So why is MAGA so interested in my opinion now?

My Girl - Sevika (Arcane)
NSFW tags - literally porn, sub!Sevika, dom!reader, pussy-eatting (s!receiving), very light fingering (s!receiving), strap usage (s!receiving), choking, strap refered to as dick, no use of y/n (ever), dirtyyyyy talk, pet names (baby, my girl, slut) 18+
----------------------------------------------------------
nobody would expect sevika to submit to anyone, she was known to be headstrong, and loyal
and loyal to you, she was. so when you brought up the idea of using the strap on her, she saw no other choice then letting you try.
she teased you endlessly when you asked, telling you that she never got especially loud or submissive.
fortunately for you, she was very wrong.
sevika had eased you down between her legs, resting her metal arm on her thigh while you pulled down her boxers
her breath was shaky as you spread her pretty pussy, swiping your thumb across her clit
a soft groan escaped her as you gazed up at her sharp features, under most circumstances, people would be terrified to be under a woman like her
you, however, were thrilled
you reveled in her features contorting as you gently worked around her entrance, sliding the tip of your middle finger in and pulling it out
holding eye contact, you brought the finger up to your mouth and set it on your tounge, sucking it with a soft pop
sevika was already unraveling. being this vulnerable was making her head spin, and her legs open
she wrapped her fingers into your hair, pulling your face down to her core
your eyebrows knit together as you worked your tounge up and down sevikas slit, maintaining eye contact with the woman above you
it didn't take long for sevikas legs to start shaking, throwing her head back and muttering obscenities like "give me that fuckin' mouth", "right there, baby" and your personal favorite, "i want your dick"
you couldn't help but slow to a stop when you heard that, not expecting a request that needy from sevika
not that you were complaining at all
without a second thought, you reached over and grabbed the hot pink strap from your shared bedside table
sevikas eyes widened with anticipation, as she muttered something about not being scared
you murmered to the woman below you while you worked your strap up and down her soaked pussy,
she placed her heavy hand on the back of your neck, taking deep breaths and bringing your lips down to hers
the dominance she lacked in her current position was made up for with the way she was kissing you,
her hand kept your lips pressed to hers while she worked her tounge into your mouth
you couldn't even help the soft moans you let out as you started lining the strap up with her hole
"ready?" you cocked your head at sevika, watching her determined nod
how cute she was to think you didn't intend on ruining her.
you slowly pressed the tip of the strap into her, watching her throw her head back and grip the back of your neck hard enough to bruise
the deeper you pushed in, the less you recognized the stubborn woman you were so used to
sevikas mouth had found purchase in your neck, nipping and sucking at the flesh to stiffle her own moans
your hips met her thighs as you bottomed out, watching her face for any sign of discomfort
sevika looked down at the way she was taking your dick, her eyebrows knitting together at the sight
of course, you took this moment to bring your hips back and slam them back into her, eliciting a guttural sound from the woman below you
you watched as her jaw slacked, the pleasure lowering her inhibitions
you could swear you had never seen a more beautiful sight then sevika writhing around under you, begging you to go faster
"fuck, thats my girl. just like that" her rough voice echoed in your ears, urging you to fuck her as fast as you could manage
the room was filled with lewd sounds of skin slapping, and sevikas groans
you swear you felt her pussy tighten around you, you just knew she was close.
sevikas metal arm wrapped around you, the cool metal pressing you closer as she rotated her hips into you, chasing her own high
the rough back of the strap bumping perfectly against your clit, combined with sevikas impending orgasm was nearly enough to send you over the edge
her wrapping her hand around your throat while she told you to fuck her like a slut? that was more then enough.
you felt yourself unravel as you doubled over onto sevika, listening to her work herself through her orgasm on your strap
sevika pulled you up, laying you next to her while you both caught your breath. you could feel her wrap her metal arm around your waist as she murmered thank you's
the air smelt of sex, you were both exhausted, and you could feel sevikas legs shaking under you, but as you cleaned her up, you both knew it would be happening again

i am pondering dialtown peter since i just did the roger dlc good end. warning in advance for roger dialtown dlc spoilers. cool? cool anyways
i just think like. okay the good ending cutscene with peter is kind of. abrupt. and confused people according to doggo and i can see why, it's... a bit weird in tone and isn't built up to as well as it could've been imo. no shade to the ending though the ending is fuckin AWESOME and that roger speech shook me to my core. however i think the peter intrusion can be reinterpreted to be really interesting with a bit of canon wiggle room, so to speak, because like --
imagine you are peter. you're the straight-laced, responsible co-manager of the factory, and you have been for a while. you know that you aren't easy to get along with and you don't really try to change this. it keeps things under wraps. it's all you can really do when everything around you is chaotic and wacky and you're so consistently left out of the loop. things are done without you being consulted. you feel like a joke so you have to prove you're the only thing that isn't. and really, it's your fault, in a way. you're the villain here for letting these things happen. you are to blame.
and then there's your best friend roger. you feel, sometimes, like he's the only person youre tangibly helping. you got him off of alcohol. you're always the one he leans on, always the one checking in. he is a good man. life has dealt him a bad hand, and people laugh at him sometimes, but you know he's good. he tries so hard. you wonder if maybe you aren't trying hard enough, but maybe your destiny is just to be this way. you don't think about it. he seems happy around you and that's enough, you suppose. and then management changes.
for all you know you are responsible, you also believe there is something rotten within you. something that will only weigh others down. you are able to be so very normal amidst the chaos of work, but you believe you can't be personable. you're too methodical, too straightforward, too managerial. and people want a person to talk to them, not a rigid machine. you look in the mirror and wonder how much of you is just the phone on your head. you look in the mirror and wonder who you are. but you can't fathom a good man like roger could look in the mirror and see anything but the sun. you trust him. you know he's a trainwreck, a mess, clumsy and irresponsible sometimes, but he's a good man. you know he can prove himself. maybe if you just keep at arms length, don't take over too much like you tried last time...
and things are a mess anyway. things are worse. and you begin to wonder if maybe you're the issue. if maybe your destiny is just to take over and rule with an iron fist, because that is the only way things can be done. this rot inside you, this thing that is clearly only making roger worse by your presence -- it must be killed at the source. so you have to play the game. you know what has to happen, don't you? you have to take over. and then everyone will be miserable, and roger will see how good he is, how much potential he has, and he will usurp you. he will be good. he will surprise everyone. and the rotten festering thing will be taken out, and he will never be dragged down again. because it must be you holding them back. you're the common denominator.
you're the villain.
peter doesn't understand that not being the boss is better for roger. he doesn't comprehend he is likable as a person moreso than he is a corporate entity, a responsible manager -- the only person he may believe likes him beyond that is caroline, and even then he has a fucking board discussion about if he should be allowed to act more than completely rational and reasonable, with a pros/cons list! yeah that's meant to be a jokey dialogue scene but i still think it reflects how peter tries so hard to be rational and reasonable and i think to some extent he believes that makes him less human. roger is so bright, of course he can surprise people and show them the sun! peter may be good at management but how far will that get him when surely nobody wants to directly associate with him? he is a menace.
he does not understand that roger cares so deeply for him, the same way roger doesn't understand people love him without him having to prove himself. idk. this is only half canon and its kinda text extrapolation and interpretation to fit w the ending scene but its an interesting thought

this is sooooo coooool!!!!!! really love how expressive they all are!
hope you don't mind some headcanons
gabriel is an heir of void (my boy IS void itself for how little we see of him in the comic... it'd be super funny if he contributes nothing to the ongoing drama in the next volumes... funny but oh so damn tragic)
kuromaku is a maid of time (he is a cleaner/protector to the core. trying to protect a certain timeline for their session to win is like. very him)
dante is a mage of heart (he ascended without the ascention bed that sounds very heart to me. also he is an example that many follow so. yeah?)
felix is a knight of hope (bc the guy weaponizes happiness and he's trying to do it for others (kinda??? ig????) also he's super important)
varu is a prince of mind (trying to brainwash his people? he would definately do some more mind-fuckery if he so could)
brolly is a page of space (bc he's stuck in a tower and everything feels too claustrophobic yk? also he's like. super important for the plot of the comic. he's also artsy sooooo)
romeo is a rogue of breath (he's a very free guy and i think he tried to give that same freedom to his girls. he failed only because there's only so much you can give before an all-powerful wish-fulfiller's battery dies... he's very charitable overall a true rarity mlp kinnie)
pik is a bard of blood (he hates the outfit soooo much. perhaps he just decides not to ascend cuz. well. is it really worth it if you can do cool stuff without ascending anyway? although being able to fly is cool no matter what...) (also i think he finds it fun to see others beat the living shit out of each other. as long as he's the one on top it's fun)
nicole is a witch of doom (cuz science is just looking at the face of death and saying 'is anyone going to break that' and not waiting for an answer)
emma is a thief of rage (bc life is unfair society is unfair and the only thing you can do is use this rage to reshape the world as it's supposed to be. maybe.)
cleo is a seer of light (c'mon look at her. she's very rose-core)
helen is a sylph of life (in an rpg game she would definately be a cute healer mage idk what to say, i'm sorry. i think she really tries to be helpful to her friends and tries to provide some respite to them cuz. well. life is hard but maybe drinking warm tea with friends will make it better. yk?)
13 Cards clones but it's the Homestuck 💥💥💥
#super cool art!! homestuck x 13 cards is the crossover everyone needed#like c'mon there's 12 of them!#and 14 if you count the jokers so. yeah!!! fedya is a muse and joker is a lord that is all i shall say on this

got ready for my re-watch with mum and this appeared on facebook and. yeah.
#some people thought this was the show where ayo edebiri cooks cool food. which it is partially. but#at it's core it's this. and i think that's very cool#the bear#i also do think a lot of people thought carmy would be 'fine' after he worked through his mikey grief#as if fishes didn't show us that his trauma runs so so so much deeper#and when he wasn't in fact 'fine' in s3 they were put off which i think is sad bc this story is interesting and beautifully told#anyways. thoughts ??

OK correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel like the main 'yin/yang' parallel with Atsushi and Akutagawa is not something like 'this one is bad but secretly has a good side and this one is good but secretly has a bad side'.
I feel like it's more about 'who they are at their core vs who they choose to be'.
At his core Akutagawa is kind and at his core Atsushi is not. But despite this Atsushi tries every day to make the kinder choices and I love him so much for it. He has to work so hard to be good.
He wants to be a bitch SO bad I know he does but he tries his best to help people and be nice (sometimes he fails but that's OK <3)
Atsushi doesn't always WANT to help people, a lot of the time he's selfish and scared, but he does help people anyway. He keeps helping people over and over again. There's still some selfish motivation to it, and his initial motivation for helping people was because the headmaster told him that's all he was worth, but overall he does care about the people he helps and it weighs on him if he fails to save them. And of course, as the series goes on he starts helping people more because he can rather than because he feels like he needs to.
In Akutagawa's case, he's still capable of being kind but his environment led him into being someone who chooses to hurt people. But he's always been a protector at heart. In the start he was bad compared to Atsushi because he was choosing to hurt people and keep the cycle of abuse going. Just like how Atsushi developed in why he saved people, Akutagawa starts to get redeemed when he chooses to not just act on his rage. Not only does he start to spare people, but he speaks more kindly to them (apologising to Higuchi and telling Kyouka he's proud of her). It all culminates into the moment he chooses to help Atsushi and sacrifice himself for him, going back to his core value of being a protector. Even when he's finally revived, he keeps this role in his new position as Aya's Knight.
I kind of see the streaks of white in Akutagawa and the streaks of black in Atsushi not as their 'hidden sides' but as their fundamental selfs. That's who they are at their core, and their main colours (black for Akutagawa and white for Atsushi) are how they're presented to everyone else and how they try to have people see them as.
#I'm just spitballing half of this but these are also my genuine thoughts on these two and their yin/yang parallels#I'll never get over Akutagawa being a protector at heart and getting that side of him buried with rage from growing up in the PM and-#-Dazai's old teachings#also Atsushi being selfish at his core is very important to me. He's not a typical 'kind hearted' shonen protagonist. He's kind not because#-that's how he’s always been but because that's how he chooses to be#I think that kind of character is even more admirable to me#it also fits well with Dazai being his mentor. Since Dazai also doesn't have that initial desire to save people just out of kindness.#He saves people as a promise to his dead friend that wanted him to live a good life#in fact that actually fits with Jouno too#now that I think about it quite a few bsd characters fit into that 'not kind because they were born that way but because they chose to be'-#-archetype#hell yeah. That's kinda cool I like that#bsd analysis#Akutagawa#atsushi#akutagawa ryuunosuke#atsushi nakajima#sskk#shin soukoku#<- Not a ship post but adding this tag since I consider that their duo name too#bsd#bungou stray dogs#bungobble my post

i love my Basketbot Portal AU
#Basketball is Chell and Robot Flower is Glados#i think GB would be Cave Johnson and TB is prob just her assistant.. and Puffball would be the Turrets (because she sings so beautifully)!!#maybe Flower is Caroline?#The plot would change a bit too... this AU is more like a role insertion and not a complete perfect run of Portal/Portal 2#Basketball would still be trapped by RF to do tests and she would try to get closer to Robot Flower and try to fix her#Basketball is really smart... i think she would admire Robot Flower's innovation and creativity even if shes Evil... they looove each other#they would totally fall in love and date in the end trust#in the end i think Basketball would try to code the personality spheres off of her#maybe each personality sphere could be a character... like Intelligence Core = Pin (cake) or Book (smart and knowledgeable)#Space Core = 8 Ball (in the sense that they both have a fixation on one thing... Space and 8 yknow?)#Morality Core = Teardrop..... or actually maybe Pie? shes apathetic and i think it would be cool#Curiosity Core = Liy or Pillow... in a sense? before her huge killing spree thing i think Pillow was the very curious and experimental type#im not completely sure for Wheatley... ill think on it#omg if you read all this thank you sm ive been thinking of this for literal months#btw please tag me if you make art#bfdi#portal#basketbot#basketball x robot flower#basketbot portal au#key rambling

You're still standing off to the side. Somehow, center stage has shifted from under your feet without you realizing, and you're standing in the wings, performing to no one.
Starring Role (Patreon)
#My art#ISaT#ISaT Spoilers#Siffrin#Loop#Technically - you know how it goes#Me when I relate to Siffrin: Oh no haha that's probably not great whoops haha#Me when I relate to Loop: Oh. Oh No.#Lenti has such a deathgrip on my ISaT opinions wtf how is she so powerful I thought my fave was Sif?? But I mean well-#Lol#Does this count as vent idk lol#It was fun to write tho :) Very easy! Done all at once!#As was drawing this! Also done all at once! And black and white is still really fun to work with hehe#I got to use some pretty cool outline/lineart tricks for this one yay :D#The original draft of the fic had a different title but ''Starring Role'' is kinda?? too perfect???#To the point where I looked around and I was like#Kinda shocked that there doesn't Seem? to be another fic with the same title?#Which is.........oddly relevantly thematic to this fic actually hahaha#Not to get too exacting about it but the whole thing of Loop feeling replaceable well#It would imply that other someones could do what they do better than them#What an odd refutation. Huh. Weird#Anyway - behind the scenes fun fact!#I actually really love the song Starring Role but I didn't think of it until after writing this#And now that I sing it to myself it's actually kinda perfect what the heck#So that's something to think about as well#Anyway if you're going to listen to it pls listen to the Axiom remix it is The version in my heart <3#The glitches and stutters are perfect.....#And the clock ticking??

#dragapult#insanely cool pokémon still. i love it still#shooting its babies out of its head. and i don't even think it's a very good move to be honest#multihits tend to be rather hit or miss in the core series i hear#it'd be busted in pmd though!

I have absolutely no idea how they’d do it but I constantly daydream about a death note part II musical… give mello and near the duet they damn well deserve
Like. The original musical does such an insanely cool job of incorporating the each character’s instrumentals into the musical, I’d kill to see how they’d tackle Mello and Near oTL
#death note#mello#near#mello death note#near death note#death note the musical#I think so often about how in the show mello and near’s themes end up completing each other#Near’s earlier themes (1 and 2) both feature L’s typical piano with a hint of Near’s trademark synth#Which is a really cool thought because synths are sort of like an “evolved piano#Meanwhile Mello’s 1st and 2nd themes are very electric guitar and drum set heavy#which again is another aspect of L’s theme as it shifts from piano to guitar#On another note all of the ‘thinking’ themes incorporate a ticking sound#but Mello’s is really unique because it sounds more like a bomb timer than a stopwatch#foreshadowing fr…#anyways when you get to mello no theme and near no theme they’re more complete#Near grows into himself and abandons the piano completely in favor of his synth that then incorporates the guitar and drums (mello core)#while mello no theme takes a calmer approach than his previous themes *but* starts including Near’s synthy sounds#anyways a back-and-forth musical duet would really suit them#and then their instrumentals could complete each other when they work together briefly#it all makes sense in my head I promise.. the vision is there

I love this AU so much but I do have to ask, where is Howard? How does he feel about Randy hanging out and going on missions with other heroes?
... ok but this is a bit of a complicated answer, considering...
In Present (Comic) Time, Howard is currently, uh indisposed? 😰
But lol, yeah I get what you mean, so let's just answer in general: Howard is Randy's best friend and he will be by his side as soon as current Randy 'problem' gets resolved. But Howard is also not as into the hero stuff as much as Randy, and that's what I like about him.
Howard would not be eager to go on missions like Randy, and while yes it will probably be a cause for some jealousy that Randy's gonna hang out with other heroes - you have to keep in mind that in HoM AU they are both a bit older, so the jealousy will be much more managable. Because at the end of the day, they are still best friends, no matter how many new cool friends either of them meet.
Not to mention, who is to say that Howard won't hang out with them as well?? xD (I just never drew it, because uuuuh plot reasons) Also not to mention the other characters that are in the same best friends/support role for other heroes! He will totally call them losers, but will still eagerly join their super secret chat group so he can share/learn some funny dirt about their respective hero friends. xD
#que?#hom au q&a#random but out of top of my head i think that howard will get along terrifically with Hailey Fisk and Lila. maybe Ray Ray & Wadi??#and out of core 9 he will probably get along (?) with jake rex and kim. maybe zak and jun? dont ask me why just a gut feeling xD#but he will get absolutely bored to tears with anyone he will consider a nerd unless they are like a cool type of nerd?? does it make sense#for example Howard would be bored to tears by Wade UNLESS he realizes how many cool gadgets Wade can make/offer#and Wade will get traumatized when he realizes Howard is a chess master and he can actually be an opponent to him#not to spoil anything but i had a stupidly hilarious idea about Howard and how he will fit into hom after. and i dunno but it feels very in#character of him xD here is to hoping i will ever get to that part

whatchu thinking about. nothing? just the changes to garys design and his character evolution and growth and everything. 24/7. you know. and the fact that even if he changed, hes still the same at his core!
#pics stolen from pinterest#i need to make my own screenshots.. i do have plenty actually just all on my pc so#none on my phone to use on the go#anyway#cough#i love you gary fischer 🫶#not a self shipper in this case so im not simping i just love his character so much. like his physical traits show one thing but hes not#just that hes very sweet and loyal and i love how hes also still a big nerd and the way hes not written as just some killing machine but#actually the opposite. im saying this cause on my first watch i thought he had a full 180 but thats not the case as i learned later on#and thats also why i love him#and then also the details such as him knowing the perfumes and stuff. hc he knows how to cook well and knows food too#based on stuff from the show#and also his relationships with people. hes like the true core of the show to me with his growth and his connections#being besties with the monarch but also being friends with hank and id even say brock? brock definitely respects him!! and hatred#its so cool. i love this guy#thoughts are being thunk#vbros#that aside i love how the style of the show changed and i love both the simpler cartoony look from the start bur#but i also love the later more uniform slightly more realistic look which goes well with what i would say a more serious approach#like its still a funny show but to me it got more serious and sincere and personal.. always has been its just turned that up. i think?

i don’t know if i’m ever gonna write the fic but i’ve been thinking abt like. the eternal stockade. the implications. lup, a lich who was trapped in a dark featureless cell for a decade completely isolated with nothing to keep her sanity but her own mind. she has to put people in the eternal stockade. how many liches does she see herself in. how many liches started out just like her. how many liches are truly too far gone. and the only liches we ever see other than her and barry are edward and lydia. they’re certainly evil, but mad? they seem pretty sane. they’re not, like, tattered echoes of souls, they’re definitely still people. even as much of a grudge as lup surely has against them, wouldn’t they remind her incredibly strongly of herself? do they deserve to be trapped just like she was? for eternity? isn’t eternity what turned john to existential despair in the first place?
#mine#taz balance#taz lup#lup#like idk i think lup’s down to kick necromancer ass but when it comes to being like. WARDENS of a PRISON. would that not be uncomfortable??#but like taking the job is the only way to avoid HER being thrown in prison??#idk the raven queen being a cool & chill goddess boss is definitely fun but when you actually think abt it#i don’t think i’d agree with her. i think if i lived in that world i’d think she were sort of evil#which like also to get into the hunger vs authority its not very explored because its not at all the point#the hunger is meant to be nihilism and despair and dissatisfaction its at its core an emotional story about joy & love#but like john starts out rebelling against laws. laws of the universe; except that it turns out a being wrote those laws (jeffandrew)#so the hunger is also sort of a force of rebelling against unjust constraints in the pursuit of freedom?#and the heroes end up preserving the status quo and saying you just have to find joy within those unjust limitations#which again. like. the point is that life is unfair and you can find joy and meaning despite it. which is true to real life.#i’m not saying the hunger was right or that despair is the only way or w/e like#yk like taz balance is not a story about society its more about. philosophy i guess#the point is that life’s really hard and you find meaning anyway and that’s preferable to despair and death#thematically for the audience we understand these are standins for ways of viewing reality#and in the real world reality is what it is. its just the world. there’s no authority that writes the laws of nature#like its not a ‘man vs authority’ story its a ‘man vs nature’ story#but IN UNIVERSE nature IS an authority. jeffandrew and the gods. regardless of how much joy you can find in an unjust world#if i lived in it i’d want to make it more just! but anyway like yeah barry & lup working for the raven queen#is kinda an extension on that idea of preserving the status quo#although i guess you could say gods are just forces of nature. theyre not PEOPLE theyre just personifications of existent natural laws#and it ties in w istus and fate as well#although fate is like a comforting guiding force rather than restricting & horrifying#^ pay no attention to any of this i don’t think it really means anything i’m just like. writing thoughts as i have them#not like a hard stance i’m taking just exploring some ideas#any ways#THERES A TAG LIMIT??

#poison ivy#poison ivy dc#dc polls#tumblr polls#polls#dc poison ivy#dc#dc comics#also I find it more interesting when Poison Ivy is very biologically plant#I think I prefer her with green skin I think partially because I like her more plant than human#but also because design-wise I love her red hair as the pop of color contrasting the green#a white ivy can be good tho to break up the green and making the design more visually clear#also I like when she is very plant and like needs sunlight and water and dirt not food lol#(but also she should still have human emotions)#I love Poison Ivy#I love love Ivy#Oh and I really don't like when she's a ginger (orange hair) her hair needs to be bright red#to me her core character traits are 1. her overwhelming and intense love for plants and the environment#2. her care for people (usually restricted to Harley but never underestimate Ivy's motherly instincts)#this trait is usually where the conflict with her character lays#3. her sex appeal this was originally her only trait I'm a gay man so I have less to say about it but I do love her femininity and slay lol#4. probably least important her evilness which is best when it's motivated by one of her other traits I like w#if its not clear I love Poison Ivy and I just put an entire other post in the tags lol#I like when she has cool lesbian aunt vibes#but I also like when she has unhinged plant lady vibes#pamela isley
