#be serious i'm BEGGING you

[yeah-thats-probably-it]

#like it's not a socialist tract by far but it is clearly a bit of a problem to wodehouse that all of his peers are hedonistic morons#the only sane person in the entire novel series is the servant#like. Hewwo

Imagine calling me illiterate while using the phrase "only sane person" to refer to a character who came up with the idea of getting a feuding couple back together by training a random child to say "kiss Freddie" because he just saw a movie where a couple were persuaded by the pleading of their OWN child to get back together lmao

And I'm not saying there's no social commentary in these books! For example, Jeeves (who wholeheartedly believes in the class system and this is an integral part of his character) has a short speech in Ring for Jeeves railing against post-WWII "socialistic legislation" that's been impoverishing much of the hereditary aristocracy. Kristen Thompson cites this in her book Wooster Proposes, Jeeves Disposes as representing Wodehouse's views, but I actually think the commentary on class in RfJ is more complex than that! However, this post was an off-the-cuff joke that I didn't expect to gain traction, so I unfortunately neglected to address every nuance in Wodehouse's work!

I've been trying to resist the urge to correct every person who wants to come onto this post to tell me "um actually, it's biting social commentary when the aristocratic characters who are largely presented as good-natured and mostly harmless are endearingly silly," but if you're going to be fucking rude about it

“liking something in fiction doesn’t mean you condone it in real life” but instead of dark fanfiction tropes it’s about liking jeeves and wooster while being a socialist

Marvel writing about how important Karen is to Frank Castle on their official website is making me go crazy right now!!!

The Council of Optimuses: Pleasant, generally positive, they exiled Bayverse a while ago but they still check in once in a while to make sure he's ok/out of curiosity, Earthspark enables One's 'I can fix him' delusion to the point that Prime is falling into it too, IDW does NOT want to add to the delusion pile so he shuts up, Cyberverse kinda doesn't want to be at this meeting it feels too much like a party, IDW keeps making calls to somebody but he won't tell anyone who, they used to have 'bring your Bumblebee to work day' but Skybound had a breakdown over it so they can't do that anymore, everybody is suspicious of Skybound's new arm but the only person who actually brought it up was Bayverse whose solution was 'kill him' so now everybody thinks they are getting paranoid and should maybe start seeing a therapist (they should start seeing therapists, but they ARE right about the arm).

The Council of Megatrons: They are having a great time even if it looks horrible from the outside looking in, Prime constantly wants to fight IDW for his spot as the strongest Megatron but IDW is not about that, they tried to kick out Earthspark but he somehow keeps getting in (IDW leaves the door open), One has like 5 devils on his shoulder telling him to escalate and two fallen angels who are desperately trying to get across that maybe total destruction isn't the move, IDW is trying to hide his redemption arc in order to keep the situation under control (only Earthspark is aware of it, though Skybound has his suspicions), Cyberverse always tries to kill the others to take over their universes and it's the highlight of everybody's month, Bayverse is mocked for being killed by Optimus but secretly everybody is kinda jealous about it (Prime especially), one time an unidentified Starscream (it was Animated) broke in and it was on sight (he got away because every Megatron wanted to be the one who killed him and they fought each other over it), IDW keeps taking calls from somebody but he won't tell anyone who, Skybound can listen in on his Optimus's meetings due to being his arm and reports back, there is an ongoing debate about whether Galvatrons should be included.

Inspired by @jyang030107 's art of ES and IDW Megs advising their One counterpart.

WHO IS THIS PINK HAIR GENTLEMAN YOU JUST POSTED? HES SO PRETTY???

he's Hayate from Ride Kamens! 🦩 he is my bird son a very silly guy who's part of a superhero (well...hero-ish) group trying to take down a cult, although his real passion is lattes. also, he is very pink!

(the fancy outfit was just for a game event, alas, although I spent way too much time grinding to get the pink variant so now it is mine forever, mwahaha. >:)

While everyone else thinks Workforce's wasted potential is that Chakotay and Janeway didn't have a brainwashed what-could-have-been-romance *I* know that Workforce's wasted potential is that Tuvok wasn't there as a much more vocal irritant/unintentional cockblock to Jaffen. Who hates him the whole time but is trying to act like he doesn't because Janeway REALLY likes him.

Man I love science fiction. Give me more Dark Matter and Firefly and Breathing Space and Strange Case of Starship Iris type shit. Star Wars is fun and all but sometimes I just want to put people on a ship in space and let them go a little feral. Rage against The Machine (Space Capitalism and/or The Government)

Idk what to call that specific brand of scifi but I think it's my favorite. I want to be on a spaceship. It's what I was born to do. Please somebody put me in your TV series or Web Series or Film or Podcast I've been told I'm a delight to work with and I can play ur plucky little ambiguously teenage stowaway without you having to work with children--

「 Kim Dokja thought: Yoo Joonghyuk is now in the Gilobat Industrial Complex. 」 At first, I purely felt gratitude. Ah! Yoo Joonghyuk was a decent person! That jerk hit the industrial complex to save me! I felt thrilled for a while without thinking much. Then once I thought about it, I couldn't believe it. That Yoo Joonghyuk entered the Gilobat Industrial Complex to save me? In the first place, it was strange that Yoo Joonghyuk knew about my crisis. How could a guy who wasn't a constellation or have access to a channel know about my crisis? Thus, Yoo Joonghyuk was likely to do the opposite of coming to my rescue. He noticed that I impersonated him and came to the Demon Realm to pick me up. In the meantime, something went wrong and he headed to the Gilobat Industrial Complex first where he went through an unnecessary dispute and overturned the industrial complex. I couldn't even fathom how much rage it felt to do that.

Hey, remember when Uriel and Joonghyuk had that conversation about saving Dokja and Joonghyuk gave those absolutely atrocious excuses as to why he was "really" going to the Demon Realm, you know the ones that were so bad Uriel straight up started laughing at him right in his face?

Remember how Joonghyuk was soooooo obvious in his desire to save Dokja that nobody would ever believe his bullshit mumbling about 'usable items' or some shit?

Well great news!

THE ONE PERSON IN THE ENTIRE STARSTREAM WHO ACTUALLY BELIEVES JOONGHYUK'S UTTER NONSENSE IS KIM FREAKING DOKJA

In fact, Joonghyuk didn't even have to give his excuses, Dokja just thought them up all on his own!

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

As a new vegas massive nerd i have so many thoughs and theories on Lucy's image and how her story will unfold(the significance of the number 33, her role in all of it as "dorothy", the legion being in new vegas, joshua graham, her development and how she interacts with the world and her mirrors) but it seems the only thing people in this fuck ass app know to talk about her is making her a self insert for ships i'm so fucking tired

still mad that we didn't get Vecna possessing Steve. haha silly Steve who asks stupid questions and everyone dunks on as if he's not an athlete and one of the better combatants in the group. Steve, who knocked out a trained soldier at 19. Steve, who has been beaten to hell every season and gotten right back up afterwards. just goofy old Steve.

but what if Steve wasn't actually Steve anymore?

plea for people who have ace headcanons and write those characters as ace "by default" to tag their fics with 'asexual character' even if it's not explicitly or implicitly mentioned so that I can find them without having to go through a hundred fics that hit me in the face with varying degrees of said-characters thirsting over their partner first

for explicit and implicit mentions of your ace headcanons you can use "asexual [character name]" as well. thank you.

signed: me, a tired asexual whose second main reason for not reading many fics is exactly this
