@sockdooe, This is the full original image:

According to the Tumblr post I originally snagged it from, it's an early piece of promotional artwork, meant to depict Keith as the series's central character. Shiro is shoved into the background, presumably to illustrate that he was intended to fulfill a Doomed Mentor role.

"Go to hell" is basic. "I hope your favorite show that ended or was supposed to end naturally regardless of quality suddenly gets renewed for countless new seasons that soullessly milk it dry and sink the show's quality to unsalvageable levels whilst showing zero signs of ever putting the show to rest or letting it die like it should've " is smart. It's possible. It's terrifying. It has actually happened.

saw someone being wrong about kon on the internet again (i know. shocking) and you are all so lucky i'm sick and feverish and lazy because i DID just seriously entertain the thought of writing up a small essay complete with issue and panel citations about why it's simply incorrect to say that kon never really seemed to reciprocate any sort of crush on tim before geoff/tt03. this is just not true. you dont have to actually ship them but to downplay their importance to each other even in the earliest days is simply incorrect. i'm too tired and achy to bother digging through comics to pull up all the issues that have the bits i want to point at but like... they were both very mutually important to each other from early on. it was in no way shape or form one-sided, whether you want to read that as platonic or romantic. man.

LRT that is such a thing with queer fandom spaces tho. It's like that post that's all "yeah your story is so gay but how are you treating your female characters" you know?

like yeah it's great that this is the queer fandom website but a good chunk of the time that just means placing a lot of focus on the white guys and that's still not great lmao

It's a little cringe how some trans people can't stop centering themselves in any conversation. Like there's this drama on tiktok between Kat Blaque and Madeline Pendleton, which blehhh not important, and legit one comment out of two is like: "well I'M agender and medically transitioning and therefore I think xyz" or "as a transmasc nb transsexual dating a transmasc nb who is not transitioning I understood the argument" like ok?? Nobody gives a fuck and stating your identity doesn't really.. make your opinions more valuable? Especially when it comes to queer infighting, like bestie, you're not special here we're ALL fucking trans

I've been keeping it off my face as much as I can on video, but I'm livid about the Skype sale.

I have about 100,000 contacts on that program. I joined during the bush admin. I was lucky to find a community full of incredible people, many of whom I now consider lifelong friends. Because of the community I found on that app, I found space to experiment with my gender presentation. I was able to come out as nonbinary (to feel SAFE ENOUGH to come out as nonbinary) because of that app.

I've seen a few Myspace posts in which people gloat they never got into Skype. Good for you. You won't suffer emotionally, and that makes you feel superior. But if you have no concept of what that program has meant for more than 9,000,000 Americans (that's half of half of half of half of all Americans!), many of whom do not have access to community in physical spaces, kindly sit down.

The sale constitutes the largest mass layoff in American history. We will lose billions of dollars in our domestic economy. Over 7 million small businesses are shuttering because of the sale. You will feel the effect of that whether or not you were on the app. If you can't grasp the significance of that, again: kindly sit down.

The language of the Skype sale has set a dangerous precedent for Microsoft to shutter any tech platforms they deem "dangerous" for arbitrary, undisclosed, nebulous reasons. This will affect Americans' ability to organize, spread information, and protest. They have effectively sold our right to assembly in digital spaces. This is the greatest infringement of free speech that has ever occurred in the United States. If you can't grasp the significance of that, either: kindly sit down.

This is bigger than "never falling for the Skype craze." This is an enormous corporate overreach sanctioned by our own Supreme Court. It's bigger than teens doing silly dances you can sneer at from your smug high horse.

And if you can't grasp that: Kindly. Sit. Down.

AAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

Recently I just can't stop having a bad mood! I just don't know what it is :/ I am trying to focus on the things that make me happy and combat my wish to vent and turn irritating things into positive ones but every single good thing improves my mood for maybe like 3 minutes, and then I think about things that make me angry ANYWAY! I want to be around people but I can't because if I keep talking about things that make me angry - minor or big - I'll just exhaust them. But I've been trying to focus on good things for a while now and now it feels like it is a daily hard battle.

I really need to either finally have a mental breakdown (but I can't control when it happens, you know?) so I can cry, or have a justified reason to get angry that won't feel like petty over-reacting on my half. Hhhhrg

Wrote a lot, touched up a VN manuscript from a while ago, worked on character sprites, felt good - got really bad news about a family member, now I’m also stressed over an important exam in three weeks, but I’m getting better slowly. I’ve been able to write more often and consistently, just a little tired and feeling a little funny, meds are working slowly but they’re doing their job stabilizing me - gonna have to spend my time between studying and writing as well as not over-stressing since it’s starting to have physical effects on my health again but I’m doing better ^_^

this was me the entire time i was working on the teentopia harrassment case

[jewishcissiekj]

incidentally came across a Mike Chen tweet and decided to search up Asajj tweets on his twitter. which was a mistake because that man is doing nothing but pissing me off and his Asajj takes are infuriating and I most of all despise his take on Tartakovsky Clone Wars Asajj and Anakin Yavin 4 fight

is he like. stupid. did he even watch the show. I don't get it

i too dislike that “do you have any hobbies outside of media consumption” post, first of all because i think media consumption is a soulless way to describe experiencing art and second of all because i think it is needlessly judging what people do in their free time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
