once again thinking abt ORV as one of the most brilliant and self-aware genre commentaries ever, cus' isekai/transmigration is-- in my experience-- a deeply lonely genre. the yearning to be plucked from the stress and apparent dead spiral of real life and dropped into a setting where you matter somehow. the fact that this transmigration is often by way of death, completely abandoning the real world, is particularly telling and... bleak. but whether it's a recognition of being 'the most baddass dude', the narrative satisfaction of trying to 'fix' the plot of a doomed story, or even just befriending characters we've laughed and cried for, we want so badly to be a part of something more.
and the way ORV recognizes that and doesn't mock it, but gently reminds us that... real life isn't removed from that. it may not be as straightforward and 'narratively' satisfying as a constructed story, but we can enact change in the world around us, and we can find connection and solidarity in others. the things we want from escapism are things we often can achieve in real life, at least on a small scale. if only we recognize the inherent depth and complexity of others as, y'know, fully-realized human individuals. hell, if we recognize ourselves as more than simple characters with set paths and tropes.
ORV takes every opportunity to remind us that we are not alone, no matter how bleak and isolated we feel. our lives are constantly touching others and vis-versa, and we leaves marks on the world we can't possibly predict. we matter, we always always matter
#I'm not saying anything new I'm just thinking abt the YSH post again SOBS...#KDJ covered for her! they already had a connection! he just didn't recognize it! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA#orv#omniscient reader's viewpoint#shut up ashley

'Strong opinions about femininity and masculinity' moment
#kazuichi souda#mahiru koizumi#Kazukoi#What's their name...?#sdr2#super danganronpa 2#an art#Anyway. Mahiru stans women and Kaz is....not NOT a woman maybe he doesn't know it's kind of a huge mountain to scale#Mahiru is like. Aw jeez. Calm down I'll do your makeup and dress you up maybe then you'll feel better#I think! Mahiru is just a big sis in general to everyone. If you're a MAN she refuses to be your servant#But if you're anything else or if you're just generally nice. She likes the role. Patron saint of women-in-progress#Like washing Hiyoko. Girl has a problem literally taking a shower? No problem I'm on it. Dress her? Sure.#Never really GOT mahiru thanks a lot to her dying first. But I like the her alright#All this to say: I hate gender i don't get any of it it's intriguing but it doesn't grab me i wish it wasn't so huge

Losing my shit about this article in which a transphobic Tory was so busy panicking about existing in the vicinity of a Trans that she almost certainly misheard "jeans" as "penis" and decided that not only was this a problem with the other woman, but also that the world must be informed of this pressing danger.
"a trans woman! I had to stand directly behind her....I thought, 'this is going well', I'm handling The Situation fine'..."
translated: I saw a tall woman with broad shoulders. How would I get out of this alive? I thought. she has a PENIS. PENIS PENIS PENIS. through some force of PENIS I mean will I managed to PENIS behave normally towards her. My hands were PENIS PENIS PENIS shaking as I tried to dry them. summoning up all my PENIS courage I said 'dryer's crap innit'. she turned to me and said " yeah I'm just goiPENIS PENIS PENIS"
It's been a week and I'm still shaking. This proves trans women are the problem and I'm not weird. I'm fine. It's fine. If you think about it I'm the hero hePENIS!!!!!
very this
#red said#it's just. I'm obsessed.#everyone on Twitter is saying 'never happened' and i think they're wrong#this absolutely did happen and she's been obsessing over how vindicated it made her feel enough to WRITE AN ARTICLE ABOUT IT#because she MISHEARD SOMEONE IN A CASUAL CONVERSATION#i lay out my reasoning thusly: if you were INVENTING a scary trans woman in bathroom story out of nothing. why would it be this?#why would you go with 'we had a banal conversation until she said a sentence that makes no sense and that no human has ever uttered#but which does coincidentally sounds almost exactly like a mishearing of a very NORMAL thing to say in the circumstances#then she left and nothing else occurred'#if you were going to INVENT a story you would probably make it MAKE SENSE or SOUND THREATENING#i truly believe this is a very authentically told account of what she thinks happened#because who would. by means other than mishearing. think 'I'm going to wipe my hands on my penis' makes any sense at all.#a) 'I'm going to dry my hands on my genitals' says the presumably fully clothed woman#b) who then proceeds to leave without doing anything threatening#c) WHO SAYS PENIS THREATENINGLY? sorry it's writing out 'penis' repeatedly that made this jump out to me but like. who says that?#you might hear someone talk casually about their dick or cock but i stg it's only doctors and TERFs who casually use the word penis much#it's so. clinically descriptive. it's a weird use of language. but it IS. something you could plausibly mishear from 'pants' or 'trousers'

It seems like they are going to explore Hopper's ptsd after escaping Russia, which is great. I love that for him. However, I can't say I'm not bitter that they tortured 18 year old Steve and 17 year old Robin in s3 and never mentioned it again. I see who the favorites are.
#the duffers say they love Steve and yet we never get anything for him#looks like he's stuck with his ex and her bf this season and there will be no time exploring anything interesting with his character again#i'm giving up my dream scene of him reading max letter and is bonding with lucas#it's never gonna happen#steve harrington#robin buckley#stobin#jim hopper#st5 spoilers#stranger things

I'm new to this Sagau and stuff, tbh i like how every archon and people regret after knowing the reader was the real creator... So if its not a trouble to request.
I kinda wanna know what the whole teyvat and archons reaction when the impostor they were trying to hunt down was the Real Creator and what would be their reaction to Foul Legacy/Childe is the only person reader trusted,
oh the first emotion would be cold, suffocating horror
horror at the fact that they accused you of being a fake. horror at how they hunted and hurt you. horror at your new form, your diminutive Melusine self. and horror that of all people, of all beings in the entirety of Teyvat, you cling to an Abyssal monster for comfort. the only Archon who even knew a smidgen of your rebirth is Furina- although she insists she's not the Archon anymore, and that in itself is the only reason Neuvillette allowed her a fragment of the secret he and a few others are keeping for you. so she's tight-lipped when the other Archons descend on Fontaine to question her, brushing their relentless questions off as they're not her concern, even if she has tea with you in Merusea Village every Tuesday. besides, the Melusine were her people, when she ruled. she's not going to give up the location of their home, just because a few gods can't keep their noses out of your business!
Foul Legacy and the Melusine, and your few other allies, are firm in protecting you when the entirety of Teyvat attempts to seek your forgiveness. Legacy sticks by your side wherever you go, even if its just to the caverns outside of the village. he soothes and comforts you whenever the stress causes old injuries to flare, rumbling quietly and nuzzling against your mittenish hands, against the shimmering markings where there were once scars. you shall do nothing unless you want to, that's what he thinks. all of Teyvat can go hang for how they abused and isolated you, he doesn't care. let them suffer. but you're kinder, despite all you've been through, something Foul Legacy admires greatly. so quietly, you agree to see one god, alone, without telling any of the others
Lesser Lord Kusanali can't help but smile and clap her hands when countless Melusine appear in her dreams, leading her to you
#genshin impact#childe#tartaglia#foul legacy#foul legacy childe#genshin tartagalia#genshin childe#genshin tartaglia#sagau#genshin sagau#the other archons: where is the creator?#furina fully embracing her normal person status: wouldn't you like to know#and obviously neuvillette and arlecchino refuse to say anything#the former being the hydro sovereign and the latter being subtle enough to keep her friendship with you a secret#okay i'm having fun with this again hehe#short scenario#other's stuff#good evening

Claudia Black as Aeryn Sun in FARSCAPE 1.03 | Back and Back and Back to the Future
#farscape#aeryn sun#claudia black#syfysource#cinematv#filmtvcentral#chewieblog#smallscreensource#farscapeedit#farscape gifs#my gifs#claudia black gifs#we’ve all know that he would not fucking say that but do we know that she would not fucking wear that?#like...okay I have a lot of thoughts about that chiffon overshirt thing#because like...that is something I would wear#like i'm legitimately wanting to draft a pattern and make it#but. but I do not believe aeryn sun would wear it#like...it's not...exactly...her style. it's loose and doesn't really add anything other than aesthetic#and it's really not her aesthetic#now the conan-doyal explanation of this would be: it's early season one and they're trying things out seeing what works seeing what#claudia looks good in#the watsonian explanation is possibly that it's (if you follow the broadcast chronology - US and Aus at least) following on from#Exodus from Genesis and so she's just recovered from heat delerium and she's trying to keep her body temp low#and as such is wearing an outfit that is light and loose#but uhhh#yeah

I’m with you, my love The lights shining through on you Yes, I’m with you, my love It’s the morning and just we two
#spike btvs#spuffy#spuffyedit#btvs#btvsedit#buffy the vampire slayer#it's terribly simple#you know you want to dance#injuries cw#bites and chews and gnaws on anyone who says buffy didnt love spike. BITES and CHEWS and GNAWS on them.#like is that not the whole point? of him? of his entire character arc? of his burning to ash as he breaks the sunnydale high school#(AKA buffy's personal cage within the slayer's cage that was sunnydale itself AKA the place where he and buffy first ever fought#and he nearly killed her for the very first time but was foiled by the immense love someone felt for her) as he breaks that place to rubble#in a way also very reminiscent of the first time they slept together and Literally Fucked A Building Down. anyway as he's doing ALL OF THAT#like sure she doesnt HAVE to love him she doesnt owe him anything and even if she did love isnt about obligation. but when buffy says#that she loves him in that scene. theres nothing to indicate that she doesnt feel it. that she isnt telling the truth.#idk man. people take a man who is dying telling someone not to love him as the gospel truth when i feel like its more ... like maybe he's#making a misguided effort to be kind? he's telling her ''dont get too hung up on the vampire thats about to catch on fire#and get your pretty ass out of here while you still can please.''#whatever. WHATEVER. in the perfect btvs that lives in my head most of ats isnt canon but esp the part where spike comes back and doesnt#immediately 1. ASK IF DAWN WAS OKAY 2. upon being told by angel that he cant be put in touch with buffy because [mumbles] misogyny?#go ahead and engage in a flirt campaign at harmony until she breaks down and calls buffy for him. those would be like the FIRST TWO THINGS#that spike did after he came back to unlife. first two things frfr#i'm gonna end the tag rant there. hmm

taash said "they were doing it" and people ran with the interpretation of an npc that doesn't know solas or the history of the elvhenan even when bellara interjected and said, no, that's not right. that's not how it was for the elvhenan. they formed bonds before they had physical bodies. and people ran to doompost or create weird anti-solavellan shit even though mythal & solas refer to each other as old friends and when she releases him there is no tenderness or love in it. it is the act of unchaining a dog from his post, the stepping down of a general. but to each their own ig.
#let the record show i think love was there. do I personally perceive it as romantic / sexual? no.#mythal's perception of love & care is warped in and of itself#i think they loved each other. but she loved what she could take from him and what he could give in terms of service#not because she was romantically into him#also i wish we knew more about her & elgar'nan. her regret prison form says she holds no love for him anymore#and it makes me wonder when that love soured. was it when she was blighted? before that? was that love also born of duty and companionship?#this is the last post i'm gonna make ab this i think#bc i believe people are too caught up in the modern western ideas of love as thing we give solely to our romantic partners#and we literally have a character go ”our perception is warped bc of the age we live in” and some of you are still being purposefully obtuse#and i think trick saying it's up to interpretation is basically admitting EA had them dumb down the game anyway#if everything ab the rise and fall of the evanuris in game#was condensed to five 2min cutscenes it says enough that whatever the writers wanted#was swiftly cut down by corporate dept. basically saying it's in the fans' court now#also bc it's an easy cop out around new players & non solasmancers who are indifferent ab him / dislike him#as a way to appeal thru a more sympathetic lense of look!! he loved and was led astray#not to mention the clear justinia / leliana parallels#and leliana gets angry if you imply she was romantically involved / in love w justinia#and the romance descr when you remake your inq saying the dread wolf could not predict what it would mean to fall IN LOVE#implying he had never fallen in love before or at the very least experienced a romantic love#also him saying drinking from the well would make you a slave and he gets really upset#yet ive seen takes of ”hes doing this for her cus he dgaf ab lavellan” ?? he got mythal killed when he told her ab the blight#whatever feelings of admiration he had for her have rotted. he is literally burdened by his mistakes and his choice in joining her#i feel like if i were a spirit bound and twisted into a weapon i would need my creator to tell me i am Free. i would need that closure#like when cole says its not abuse to bind him if he asks and solas said thats not always true???#if you perceive her interaction w him in vg third act as#anything more than the way justinia released leliana in inq then im sorry maybe youre just obtuse#solavellan#mythal#dragon age meta

If My Body Could Speak, Blythe Baird | The Godfather, Mario Puzo | My Father's House, Sylvia Fraser | To The Daughter Who Secretly Longs For Her Mother’s Affection, Lynne Shako | Storms from Jupiter, Wanda Deglane | DO NOT REPLY, @filmnoirsbian
#connie corleone#carmela corleone#the godfather#web weaving#this is...quite negative towards carmela i guess#so i just want to make it clear that i actually really love her as a character and i actually can understand how she became who she was#she was a woman born in the late 19th century raised not just in a patriarchal society but a CATHOLIC patriarchal society#who therefore grew up learning that she was primarly defined by her relationship to her husband and her capacity to be a 'good wife'#so i totally understand why she would take some type of sick pride in knowing that her husband never 'had' to hit her#but like...that entire part of the book was legit hard to read and Carmela was really not that much better than Vito there#so it's kinda hard for me not side eyed the shit out of her when she blame Connie for being a neglectful mom#like geez Carmela I wonder why your daugther might be struggling I'm sure it has nothing to do with anything you did or refused to do...#i'll say that she did end up being concerned for Connie and trying to help so she definitely deserves some points here#unlike Vito's dumbass who was just like 'it really hurts me to know that my daughter is being hit all the time but i can't do anything :('#'I'll tell her it's all her fault and that she deserves to be hit that will surely help somehow'#Vito really spent the entirety of this book being like 'nothing and I mean NOTHING matters more than blood (conditions very much applies)'#domestic violence mention

HOLY SHIT I FOUND YOU!! I SAW YOUR FNAF ART LIKE A YEAR AGO ON PINTREST AND I WAS LIKE DAMN THATS PRETTY FUCKING AWSOME BUT FOR THE LIFE OF ME I COULDN'T FIND THE ARTIST BUT I JUST DID, ITS YOU!!
I have no idea which art of mine you found from pinterest but based on what you're implying I lowkey think it's this screenshot redraw I made for the FNAF movie lmao (which I hope I'm right)
Unfortunately you won't get much FNAF art from me nowadays anon, ever since Ruin disappointed me immensely I've just lost most of the hope I've been clinging onto for the franchise, now I'm just here... reminiscing, watching from the sidelines, and making a once-in-a-blue-moon art for it if I'm feeling extra
#thanks for the ask!#Ziku's insane rambles#fnaf#fnaf art#freddy fazbear#bonnie the bunny#chica the chicken#Just to be clear#I don't HATE FNAF#I'm just tired of seeing the one character I love get dragged to the mud multiple times#I'm being nihilistic but when I say there's no place for Chica fans in the fnaf fandom#there really isn't one I'm afraid#Scott had the opportunity to do SOMETHING WORTHWHILE with Glamrock Chica#instead we got fucking Roxanne Wolf because oooo the fandom likes the furry bait ig#not that I hate Roxanne Wolf either but how tf are you prioritizing this one-time character over the ONE WHO HAS CONTINUOUSLY EXISTED#AND WILL CONTINUE TO EXIST; WITHOUT PURPOSE MIND YOU; BECAUSE YOU KEEP FUMBLING#I guess what I'm saying is.... fnaf can be so alienating and lonely if the character you like isn't the furry thirst traps#because Scott hates Chica and doing anything remotely important with her; she's just a joke character in his eyes#sigh... now I'm sad because I'm remembering what made me drift away from this franchise

okay so i know that dash baxter barely gets any character development in the show but like the idea that danny hates dash? boo, lame, overdone!!!! danny who can beat dash up and dash knows this and everyone knows this but by god danny needs something normal to cling on to so dash shoves him in a locker everyday?? yeah that's the good shit
#like danny more than anything wants to be normal except he is schrodinger;s person so he'll never be normal#but dash still shoves him in the locker everyday and dash still gives him swirlies and dash still calls him 'fen-twerp'#so he's still a normal teen... right?#dash doesn't bully danny for a day and he watches the way danny get progressively worse throughout the day#dash bewildered: is he like- going through bully withdrawls???#tucker exhausted after 2nd period: dude can you just like shove him into a locker or smth?#dash: i'm trying to be better!! kwan says that i am being too much these days#sam also exhausted: be better after danny graduates#also the idea of like dash bullying danny is their way of saying 'hello' is sooo funny to me#danny as he's getting shoved into a locker: so how's your mom?#dash: better now but like that cough isn' going away yknow?#danny contorting himself to fit in the locker better: you should take her to dr. esperanza later. i heard the flu's going around#dash closing the door: alr thanks for the tip. stay in there for at least 5 minutes#danny preparing to nap: whatever#dp#danny phantom#danny fenton#dash baxter#swagger bishie#teddy ghost#dandash#ig i'll tag those bc i am a pretty big swagger bishie shipper but you could totally read this as platonic

#i'm able to express my thoughts very well in text bcz im abt to actually see and process what im saying and think about what to say next#so my brain has an easier time keeping track of my train of thought#however when i talk irl i dont have that visual processer to help me#so i have to auditorily process what im saying#also when i talk irl my mouth cant keep up with my brain#and since im just bad at articulating words/speech in general#that alongside my delayed processing skills results in me tripping over my words A LOT#i end up stuttering a bazillion times and needing to backtrack to rearrange my sentences#cin has been listening to epic the musical lately and she asked me to give her a rundown of the story on call today#so i was ATTEMPTING to but the words kept jumbling in my mouth#i repeated words i stuttered and either spoke too fast for me to pronounce shit correctly or had to pause for a moment to recollect myself#i am SO BAD at talking its so embarrassing actually#i wasnt even nervous or anything i just got too excited and couldnt process my thoughts correctly#WHY IS SPEAKING SO DIFFICULT!!!!!#anywhizzle thank u for coming to my tedtalk#my art#tmnt#tmnt mm#tottmnt#mm donnie#tottmnt donnie#donsona#shitpost#<- ig i didnt put that much effort into the doodle

so my aunt is turning 70 in a couple weeks, and I've planned a blowout birthday for her---rented a lake house, invited every member of our family and also some of her friends; I have delightfully kitschy decorations (including a glittery BIRTHDAY QUEEN sash and paste-jewel crown, thanks for asking); my freezer is full of cakes, frosting, and cookies, so all I have to do is defrost, assemble and serve. I have been working on this since February, and I plan parties like a quartermaster just before the army decamps---there are a lot of lists involved.
My most recent task is assembling a guest book, filled with both blank space (so people can write nice messages) as well as all the photos I could get from family members. There's something almost meditative about assembling these pictures---here is my aunt as a teen, standing awkwardly next to her grandmother; here is my aunt as a grown woman, admiring a niece or nephew's sloppy Christmas present; here she is on vacation, or with a friend, or at the interminable succession of Sunday dinners, birthdays, and graduation parties that are the fabric of our family life. Despite having no biological children, she's so involved, she's so present---and this is just what we could grab from phones, my personal photos, facebook!
(She maintains the family archive, so I can't ask her directly.)
I don't know if I have a firm conclusion here. Just that---well, may we all be blessed with more photographs of ourselves than will fill a scrapbook, and a niece who will spend 6 months thinking about how to gently bully you into celebrating your birthday.
#she asked me what she should bring TO HER OWN BIRTHDAY WEEKEND.#it took everything in me not to shout that if she showed up with anything except clothes and maybe a bathing suit I would end her.#...........someday I will let myself think about how intense I'm being; whether it's because I love my aunt#or because I can imagine too well being a single 70 year old woman with no children. the precipice you teeter on.#and I have some issues with my aunt!#if you get to the heart of things we don't agree; there are plenty of things I would never say to her.#but she is the cornerstone of our family; her hands are always open and her heart is given over a thousand times#I can't forget that either.#anyway. being a person and loving people is complicated. that's the thing.#about me#celestial emporium of benevolent knowledge
