about conservatives being mad about green day's "im not a part of the maga agenda":
you guys
theyre a punk band
what the fuck do you think a punk band is?
theyve always been leftist, they've always been political
just like all the other artists you're just now finding fucking hate you
they didnt change. somewhere between you listening to them as a teenager and now, you just became a fucking idiot
you became the machine you fucking dolt
youre not punk anymore, youre not cool (if you were ever either of those things), youre just a douchebag that is easily convinced by the nonsensical words of a nepo-kid, a senile asshole who bullshitted his way to being verifiably one of the worst presidents in the last century of american history
i think you need to seriously reconsider everything you believe in when your childhood nostalgia tells you you're a dumbass

Thank you all for voting in the poll to decide who was going to be the leader of the band! It turned out to be such a close race!
#poorly drawn mdzs#better drawn mdzs#mdzs#madam lan#A-qing#Band AU#(Reminder that Madam Lan's design inspiration goes to Qourmet!)#Madam Lan may have been the winner per vote count but there were so many strong advocates for A-Qing!#I played around with a few versions of what the 'poll winner' art was going to be and ultimately decided I wanted them both.#As any good theater love knows though - The battle for leadership was a ruse. They *all* get a chance to be featured.#Cooperation was the real end goal! However I do think these two have the best frontman energy of the group.#Or at least 'crowd favourite' energy. I also really loved hearing what people thought their vocal styles would be like!#This was probably one of my favourite polls to do and I love drawing these characters a lot B*)#I'd love to spend a bit more time in this AU so count on me bringing it back.#One thing I keep feeling like I need to redeem myself on is Madam Lan's Translucent skirt. I have *not* done the concept justice yet.#It is such a crack-platonic ship but I want to think Madam Lan and A-Qing would enjoy each other's company.#Possibly also with JYL as well. They can be like mutually beneficial therapy dogs to each other.#Madam Lan never got to see her kids grow up into teenagers after all. She only had sons. Never daughters.#Even if she saw her kids once a month we do know she treated them with so much love and kindness.#She would bite the shit out of YZY for yelling at JYL. What a sight to see. A-Qing would also start biting (for fun).

rdj the (whitewashed) electric boogaloo
This is a reminder to everyone who's excited about RDJ's casting as Doctor Doom that this casting is whitewashing. Victor Von Doom is a Romani character and has been a Romani character since his introduction in the 1960s. (Fantastic Four Annual #2 [1964]) Not only that, but his Roma identity and the persecution he and his family faced due to it is integral to his character, it is what forms his identity. (Books of Doom by Ed Brubaker) Even if on the off chance this casting is meant to not be Victor but instead be some variant of Tony or whomever else becoming Doctor Doom, it is damaging to the character to rob him of that important cultural background. Doctor Doom does not exist without that history. Fans have been pushing hard to cast Doom as a Romani actor for years, especially since the MCU has whitewashed other Romani characters. (Wanda, Pietro, etc) This casting is not a celebration moment, it's fucking heartbreaking that the MCU repeatedly ignores the important and nuanced cultural backstories of characters.
I know I can't change anybody's mind on whether or not you want to be excited about RDJ's return to the MCU. But I do think at the very least you should be mad that the MCU is baiting us all and destroying nuanced and interesting characters for the sake of self-referential easter eggs and nostalgia bait. Because that's what it is. Feel how you'd like to feel about RDJ's return, but personally, this is soul-sucking. I had such a deep love for the MCU as a teenager, it was obviously something incredibly formative to me, especially Tony Stark. This isn't recreating what I fell in love with the MCU for. This is turning a well-planned and artistic storyline of adaptations into cheap cash grabs and fan service. Because, I think we're past the point of being able to call the MCU an adaptation of anything. They can use existing characters' names and powers, but to say they're being properly adapted is laughable.
This is not an adaptation of Doctor Doom. This is RDJ the Electric Boogaloo because Marvel's fear of losing the interest of dedicated MCU fans overrides their willingness to tell stories that are genuine to the characters. I don't know what there is to be excited about that. The MCU has lost its authenticity and aside from a few projects, feels heartless. Every movie is a copy of a copy. This announcement isn't something celebratory, it feels like a death knell of a cinematic universe that's so desperate to cling to relevancy it's resorting to nostalgia for a character/actor who hasn't even been dead for a decade. We're not getting anything new, we're just rinsing and repeating the same song and dance.
I get it. I love Tony Stark, his death destroyed me and I to this day, rue the ending he got in Endgame. It misunderstood his arc and it robbed him of a satisfying conclusion. But the solution to that isn't dragging the corpse out of the grave five years later to whitewash an existing character with rich and interesting nuance, just to forcibly tie his existence in the MCU to Tony. Whether he is a variant or not. Why would you want someone else's fave's legacy to be destroyed simply so your fave's legacy can go on? Hell, if we were really all so hellbent on the return of RDJ and/or Tony to the MCU, we have the multiverse for a reason. There were other ways to do it that didn't whitewash and ruin someone else. This just. Isn't something to be happy about.
#... we will not be addressing that i'm a dead blog#no one say a WORD about my inactivity for 4 years this isn't about that /lh#also if anyone tries to get smart about ā€œromani isn't a raceā€ i don't care and you can shut up.#it's an ethnic and cultural identity. and it should be portrayed correctly.#ESPECIALLY for a character like *victor von doom* of all people. like it is fundamental to him.#i would've included panels of the comics mentioned but most of them use the g-slur and i don't wish to encourage that here#like listen i don't think you need to be a comics fan to be an mcu fan. they're so divorced from each other atp#nor do i think the mcu owes complete comic accuracy. but i do think you should at *least* care when characters are whitewashed.#look. i really don't want this to be a debate on if rdj's return is good or not#i've been frankly baffled at how many old mutuals are excited but. whatever if you want him back i get it.#but it shouldn't be like this. not at the expense of a different character.#this whole thing made me realize i'm *far* more jaded and turned off to the mcu than most of you guys are.#which is fair you can still be an mcu fan. if it brings you joy i'm so happy for you#but how does this like. bring joy i don't get it.#this is soulless. it's uninspired. it's done purely for shock value.#i occasionally get asks to this blog about why i left and asking me to come back#and i get it. i *want* to come back.#but i don't *care* about the mcu anymore. this is not the franchise i fell in love with.#i don't recognize what once meant everything to me.#winteriron will always hold a special place in my heart (as will tony stark)#but like. i just don't have love for it. and it sucks that this bullshit from marvel actively kills the love i had.#this sours tony stark to me. i'm sorry but it does. because was it really worth this? is this what his legacy has become?#this does cheapen his legacy btw. like without question. it turns him into a cheap cameo reference. heart of the mcu my ass.#my fandom circles have *massively* changed#i'm now entirely surrounded by comics fans bc my primary fandom is dc comics. that's what i'm up to these days#and the difference was actually baffling to me. everyone i follow now is *pissed* about this. comics twitter is so mad.#and then i see ppl on here excited and i'm just genuinely surprised this is something you want. i don't get it.#i don't say that to be rude. i just don't get it. how is *this* actually something people *want*.#do i still care about marvel? eh.#i like winter soldier comics and i could give a comprehensive rec list. and i read some other characters i deeply enjoy.

Sometimes I realize how much self-indulgent dirkjohn I made and it's like. Genuinely impressive to me. I'm impressed by my own art/fic and even analysis posts because damn, I miss my own energy, you mean I was able to just make shit up because I tend to be a little bit bonkers when I'm really passionate about something? For real?

Wen Ying resigns himself to having ~feelings~ for Shouxue with a sort of "this would have happened anyway" vibe (a modern AU would be lovely, but an in-universe also sounds great if you'd prefer that more!)
Also, as someone who's starved for Raven of the Inner Palace fic, I think you're a godsend btw
ā€œHey roomieā€”ā€ Whatever he was going to say is abruptly aborted, Dan Haiā€™s large dog-like eyes rounding above a frown. ā€œAww, whatā€™s wrong, buddy?ā€
ā€œI donā€™t want to talk about it.ā€ Wen Ying drags himself across the apartment, joints collapsing in on themselves and landing him face first onto the couch.
Dan Hai folds himself over the back of the couch, crowding his space specifically in the way Wen Ying would prefer he does not. ā€œWhat is it? Something wrong with your squish?ā€
Wen Ying sighs. Dan Haiā€™s skills of perception are truly unfair.
ā€œHmm? What was that? What did you say?ā€
Wen Ying pulls himself up from the couch cushion, takes a deep breath, and confesses his sins. ā€œI masturbated yesterday.ā€
The pause is too long, the silence too thick for a man who habitually does not know how to shut up. When he looks up, Dan Haiā€™s startled expression is waiting for him. ā€œWere you, like, thinking of her? I hate to inform you of this, but thatā€™s pretty standard.ā€
This is what his life has come to. Getting life advice from this heathen who doesnā€™t even appreciate the skill it takes to properly play the clarinet.

Being a bitch on main and Iā€™m sorry but if you collect likes and never reblog, and especially those who take the extra steps of even then hiding the likes too so they have an entirely dead blog then youā€™re not even in the fandom youā€™re passive floating by the community. You need to reblog things. You need to reblog that art, that fic, that stupid text post joke. ā€œI donā€™t even have any followersā€ because youā€™re boring and you refuse to engage with the community, maybe you could try reblogging (with comment too sometimes) and maybe people might want to engage with you too. You do. You need to reblog. You need to follow people. 90% of the population here doesnā€™t use the for you page, there is actually a culture here and the ā€œme me meā€ attitude of Twitter and tiktok doesnā€™t carry here and the entitlement of acting like it should is making you a pariah instead of a member. You have to interact with the community. Reblog my post, boy.

hit upon an interesting realization regarding re: fandom fatigue in a way that i think is like, 75% internalized and maybe 25% external, which is to say: iā€™m tired of trying to convince people something is Good, particularly in the more than post 7-8 months since s4 aired. not that those feelings werenā€™t there before, but iā€™m tired of, idk. i donā€™t post to convince anyone of anything on purpose, but iā€™m definitely more hesitant to post theories now when i know they may attract more attention than i want in general, nevermind in an unsavoury way, or theyā€™ll be cruel/smug when any given theory iā€™ve had is wrong or whatever.Ā 
iā€™m not unaware of my high follower count and some of what that means in fandom, even if i do my best to ignore all of it because itā€™s Weird, but there have been times iā€™ve wondered about having another, secret side blog or something, just for meta or whatever, to have some distance. iā€™m tired of fanon / fandom / whatever else is attached to the show and the cast and crew filtering in and getting in the way of my enjoyment, i suppose. iā€™m here to engage with the story, not people, if that makes any sense?
iā€™m tired of seeing the same old arguments or points of contention about the same old things. iā€™m tired of the lack of faith or patience or grace for drawn out storytelling and bad faith reads. iā€™m tired of people pre-judging something before its released or finished. iā€™m tired of feeling like i have to convince people that i am a person, that my meta has merit since its based in what i got a degree in / make my livelihood in. tired of feeling like people take will always take my shit in bad faith or detract for whatever shallow reason they have, of people whoĀ ā€˜rebuttalā€™ but canā€™t actually analyse because like, i truly am all for different interpretations, but if you donā€™t ground that in an explanation and examples itā€™s just... so weak? an opinion, not meta.
and i think some of this overall fatigue has been compounded by pride month and the general somewhat emotional rollercoaster of the past 6ish months of my life all having overlap but
idk it makes me want to unplug and then re-plug myself into only the best of what i want to see and create and engage with. which is probably on me for not curating what i am seeing enough, or as much as i could be. but yeah, definitely time to reaffirm the Sign and start living by it again, because most of the time i do not have the bandwidth to even consider all this, but shitā€™s been hitting different lately & not in a fun way - so time to reassess, i supposeĀ

Late night aro musing: the current couples tiktok trend (its p cute actually) is 2 slides and the first is labeled 'casual stuff me and my partner did before we got together' and then the second slide either has something unhinged like 'moved in together' or 'nothing, we uhauled' or something like that, and it got me thinking about how I rly can't participate in smth like that (not that I want or need to, I dont post stuff on there but it's the principle of the thing) because all of my relationships are so nontraditional, there isn't a clear Before and After divide like that, and it's kind of wild how so many cutesy posting trends for couples are so geared towards allos. I'm not rly feeling any kind of way about it I'm just thinkin
