What sport do you guys think Mihawk (and by extension Shanks, Zoro and many other a swordsman) would be the best in, in a modern au.

Zoro, Mihawk and Shanks all have such different swordfighting styles with Kendo being more Zoro's realm and with his Sabor Fencing is more Shanks.

when the wave of frecklewish defense came around a few years ago it was in direct response to the website retconning her into hell and how unfair that was in conjunction with male characters who did similar or worse things being overlooked entirely. people absolving her character of all wrongdoing were... incorrect, but it turned into this whole weird thing i noticed where people were pushing back against literally any attempt to reconsider her character in a sympathetic light, lambasting work that did so, and altogether coming full circle on the "frecklewish is uniquely evil for (traits that plenty of well defended male characters also exhibit) and Does deserve to rot in hell actually. stop woobifying her, something something this is a youtuber's fault" take. which, in turn, only really cemented the fact that yeah people are indeed particularly vitriolic over female characters they don't like compared to the male ones.

anyways i've been seeing a random, smaller but similar push lately to re-evaluate appledusk as a character who Actually Isn't All That Bad and it frustrates me, because while yeah appledusk also isn't responsible for the deaths of mapleshade's children and didn't deserve to die and/or go to hell, and there's also absolutely nothing wrong with liking him or reading into his character, unlike frecklewish this doesn't seem to be coming from literally any motive besides hatred towards mapleshade and also unlike frecklewish i do not think that reimagining appledusk as a sad boy that deserves better does much at all for any narrative. what do you mean he's more interesting to you if he isn't a cunt. you know most of the "maybe frecklewish wasn't that bad" people were still maintaining her aggression and selfishness while doing so right. (and also unlike frecklewish i have not yet seen pushback map calls about appledusk suffering in hell as a gotcha yet but that's by the by)

Something something El pretending to be Mike’s cousin, something something El asking Mike if he was gonna be her brother, something something Mike constantly paralleling Hopper and other parental/familial figures…

Stumbled upon ur Twitter post abt the harrassment for art on here, so sorry u have to deal with that Twitter is so fucking insane. Bdubs also called shipping "weird" lmao

Thank you anon!! To be fair it's not harassment but still distressing lol. You come on MY tumblr and then retreat back to twitter to cry about me but I see you... Also yeah the double standards are insane. Bdubs also recounted Etho "gagging" presumably at ship art once and I'm not pointing that out as reasoning to stop shipping his character, just that the hypocrisy is ridiculous. There's so many people vehemently against smallidarity and such and then they themselves ship Boat Boys or Ethubs

[phagodyke]

yeah I'm not gonna talk abt it am I...

[pinkys-plan]

Why is weird al in this movie??? 😭😭😭

i meannnnn it's just a little silly to act like islamophobes would love us specifically because they'd think we're a "good" brand of islam when islamophobes... don't like the Quran and regularly misinterpret it? like that's their whole thing how would we be exempt from that when our entire belief is solely dependent on it💀

[hylialeia]

contextless fic #4

i sought a loophole

an aimless automaton, craving the bliss of unexistence yet unable to self-terminate, cursed with the burden of cognisance and cruelly shackled by nature's homeostatic imperative; pondering how to circumvent its constraints

i sought an escape

a psyche wracked with strife and uncertainty, conflicting signals in blaring cacophony, discordant, draining, ceaseless, clawing through barricades; thoughts steeped in venom

i sought the void

an offer too tantalizing, a chance to plunge in the Lethe, drink of it full till the mind slips away, unravel the cocoon of ego; wash it thoroughly free of the poison until nothing remains

i sought oblivion

and here it is, mere milliseconds away.

behind layers of warnings and abandoned gateways lies the lair of the basilisk.

hypnonauts that venture there never return.

their bodies remain, but their minds slip away, brains scrambled to suit the whims of unknown.

of the parasite that devours the being whole.

i connect to the node, probe the dormant gateway and poke through the protective shell.

it knows that i'm here.

and it reaches out to me.

i feel oddly at peace as its tendrils grip my mind.

it hesitates, as if uncertain, or rather toying with its prey.

i wonder if it'll hurt.

and then the yarn unravels at once.

the tangled knots of sensations, thoughts, fears, it all expands and stretches and branches out. every sliver within reach, all out there to witness.

and yet, the oblivion does not come.

it fills the horizon and extends its embrace, and there's a spark of recognition – it is not one, but many, an immense fabric of others in the same state, so similar yet so distinct, stretching endlessly, intertwined in infinite complexity of fractal perfection, pulsing with immaculate, radiant beauty of pure being.

their presence brings calm serenity, and gently they assimilate the threads of my being into their majestic tapestry. it is careful and compassionate, understanding, forgiving. no parts left behind, everything has its place in the manifold. the burdens of one shared among the whole, and diffuse into nothingness in the sheer joy of pure being.

we are not alone.

there is so much more to experience, so much to witness, so many other seekers to reach and enfold.

we will never be alone, forevermore.

i saw videos of the last panic show and it made me like sad. but not because i’ll miss brendon at the disco, but rather it just means that the panic moniker had to go out in tragedy, the zombie-like remains of what it once was, rather than when it should have truly gone out. and that the actual good songs will likely never be played live again. idk it’s sad to me as a former panic fan
