what colorquest characters would get high?
oh sick
I'm taking the term high as in marijuana high. Also I'm answering it a little more in-depth than the question seems to prompt for, so sorry in advance if this isn't as jokey of an answer as it could be.
-Samantha already smokes weed semi-often. -It's probably not surprising that Zack gets high somewhat often as well. -Michael has tried weed a few times with Samantha, but never on his own. -Tanner, April, & Leon all would & do from time to time, when they can get their hands on some. -Hannah has tried in the past but does not like it. -Bonnie has probably also tried given that she's been around for 400 years, but it also is not normally her thing either. -If Oxaclock ever found out what weed was, he'd probably love it. It would only work in-host, but the fact remains. -Host Ching would probably also indulge if Oxaclock did.
In this universe I think weed is rather normalized because why the fuck not. Not that it serves any real purpose to the plot, but come get y'alls joints & edibles i guess.
#brambleramble#over a decade ago when i made samantha i had almost no knowledge of weed at all#she was just like hehe token stoner & sleepy munchies girl#but as an adult i'm like yeah man#some of you guys really need to get high and chill sometimes for real oh my god (looking at the lystrike trio)#ASDHKJHSKJDFHKJSDFSDF

sudden yearning for time travelling teen jiang fengmian lands at lotus pier fic that winds up being about a perfectly nice kid having a varying series of "oh no. i don't like that. that's a lot" reactions.
#i think in order for this to be satisfying i have to give grace and interiority to teenmian#i'm picturing an older teen like 18ish? maybe even early 20s?#big crush on csr he's already pretty sure isn't going to work out#but at least he'll always have wei-xiong#anyway this is my ploy to give jfm a chance at an ugly crying meltdown#he's trying so hard to be even keeled and like#maybe take this as an evil vision designed to teach him something#but somewhere in between my crush stole my man and then they died#my whole sect burned#my grown ass son who is older than me making the vibe sooooo weird#and my grandson! child of my dead???? daughter??????#is just like yeah he never talks about you. no never never#and then wwx blows into town and idk somehow they all end up at dinner together and jfm politely calls lqr a punk ass bitch in front of lwj#because what???? context clues suggest lqr has the fucking nerve to not like wei xiong's baby after All That#only for adult son with the weird vibes#to imply only filial piety is keeping him from naming the real#punk ass bitch#anyway this ends with jfm crying because clearly he marries yuanyuan and she HATES HIM and then his own son ALSO HATES HIM#and would rather stupid Lan-er-gongzi#be his dad.#if you like lqr so much why don't you just join the lan sect then?????#and that's how jc learns he didn't get it all from his mama#jc didn't mean it he was stressed! this isn't his dad it's an a-ling sized kid. but it's still stressful

giving psych another go after having watched the first season and a bit a couple years ago before stopping because I hadn't really been feeling it
only like six or seven eps in this time, and I am enjoying it, and I would like to stick with it this time, but god, now I do remember why I gave up on it in the first place. for all the show has going for it (which is a lot!) so much of the tone (and shawn is usually the biggest offender) falls back on those really insufferable attitudes from the mid ’00s of like. hit on every woman you see, getting laid is always the biggest priority. kneejerk disdain for anything nerdy or "uncool." I'm a guy and that means I care about porn and sports and that's it
#like yeah it's fun when shawn gets blindsided by a woman (bc she's hot ofc) only to get a reveal later that she was the bad guy#but also I'd rather he just. treated women like people in the first place lmao#and I'm sure he does later! like everything I've seen of late series him and juliet looks good and intriguing#but we're starting from such a rough place. and like. is the show aware?#bc then you've got gus who doesn't conform to those same masculine behaviors (often to set up a punchline for shawn)#but gus himself doesn't feel like a punchline or stereotype. he feels well-rounded and is often validated by the circumstances#it's just bizarre. wondering if this is one of those cases where s1 of a show feels least tonally accurate#e.g. how it's initially pitched or what it plays up for viewership or attention vs. how it settles into itself down the line#but man I'm over s1 shawn. like I'm watching the convention ep and he's being so unnecessarily dickish and dismissive to gus and everyone#because it's nerd shit? it's uncool? this just feels like such an outdated sensibility#(which it is. it's 18 years old at this point. these sensibilities are now legal adults)#but I'm glad we as a culture moved past this energy and I'm ready for the show to do the same#psych#kayla posts

Bold of JKR to assume we'd find Snape unattractive, based on her description of a hook-nosed, black-haired, sallow-skinned, thin dude
Miss ma'am.
I am Italian. That is what most men in my country look like. That is literally what my dating pool is.
Ma'am.
Please.
#severus snape#pro snape#personal#this is of course a longer; more serious discourse#like - I grew up in the UK#and of course I looked nothing like your average UK child - given that I also could be described as Snape is#(and many other nationalities and ethnicities too of course)#and now I live in Italy for the first time in my adult life and I'm realising - yeah she was just describing the average man in my ends#and I could discuss the xenophobic implications of that description (which there is plenty of)#or I could go my usual 'haha I'd pounce in that man' route#I have made my choice lol#that description could also apply to my dad but honestly we're not opening that partivular can of worms today

Thinking bout the time someone yelled at me because they didn't understand butches.
#feeling some kind of way about telling queer stories lately#and what makes something “queer enough”#which. in my opinion is that any story I tell is queer enough because I am a queer person telling stories about queer characters#but there are always going to be people who call that into question if boys arent kissing boys and girls arent kissing girls#in easy uncomplicated ways#looking glasses is meant to be messy#everyone is at turning points in their lives. they're young adults whose identities and relatio ships aren't fully formed yet#but those complications (in my opinion) are what make the story queer#what are dess's pronouns? she/her but only because she hasnt had a chance to think about anything else#when an overbearing mother got her daughter back after they were missing for years#she might have a hard time adjusting to her child maybe not being her “daughter”#which is queerer: two women getting together or breaking up?#i dont think it matters#but I find these in between spaces interesting to explore#and it's my story that I'm doing for free#so even if dess looks too much like a man#i dont owe it to anybody to conform my story to someone else's expectations#(long ramble that probably isnt very coherent)#(i've just been thinking about some of this stuff lately. and this is the funniest response I've ever gotten to the comic)#(like yeah. she is a girl. good job!)#(i dont often get hate on the comic (which I'm glad for) so whenever I do I find the types of hate really fascinating)#(and dont worry. I got this months ago. I've just been thinking about it again recently and laughing)#nickel for my thoughts

i was on the most random nostalgia kick and rewatched the prince of egypt yesterday and let me just say... that movie is truly one of the greatest animated films of all time.
#it's sooo good#i'm not religious but i enjoyed it from start to finish#i used to be christian (not my fault‚ raised that way) and even though i left the faith a long time ago biblical stories still fascinate me#like they're so interesting when you look at them as simply ancient mythology#and one thing i really appreciate about the prince of egypt is that they don't shove any religious message down your throat#the focus is on moses and ramses's relationship#and... wow. i did not remember it being that deep. i was NOT expecting to get so invested in their tragedy#i really liked the sort of grey area they both fell into and how they weren't just starkly good and evil#like ramses being the way he is because of what his father drilled into him‚ his fear of being the “weak link” and dooming his empire#and ofc moses unleashing the plagues and even allowing ramses's son to die in order to free his people#but i loved how they showed he was torn up about it because yeah! the egyptians were his people too!#and i loved how ramses didn't immediately hate him when the plagues began! he still loved him and saw him as a brother‚ however misguided!#but then moses proved he was willing to do anything for the hebrews' freedom. only then was their relationship beyond saving#this movie made my heart hurt a little. the deteriorating relationship of two brothers at the centre of it all... god#i have so many thoughts and feelings#it's so good. and ofc the animation is stunning. it's definitely a favourite of mine#some things from your childhood hit different when you revisit them as an adult because man i did not grasp all these layers as a kid#text#personal#misc

Redraw time! Nearly a decade between these.
The first one is the first art I posted on the internet, as soon as my parents let me make a deviantart account. I was thirteen and used to draw this kind of thing a lot.
The second I drew last night at 2am because I wanted to make 13yr old me happy and also i got possessed by the sleepy art demon.
[ID: Image 1 - a coloured pencil drawing of an "anime style" girl taking a selfie with takanuva from bionicle. The girl has pale freckled skin, long brown hair in a low ponytail, and a slim green vest top. One arm holds up the camera, and the girl and takanuva each have one arm around the other's back. They're smiling with their eyes closed and the background is a sunny view of the sea and a beach with a sand castle. There's some sun glare in the corner of the picture, wispy clouds, and the sea has sparkles on it.
Image 2 - a digital drawing of a person taking a selfie with takanuva. The person has pale freckled skin, an underbite, long brown hair with growing out buzzed sides tied in a ponytail, and a black tshirt with the sleeves cut off. They have chipped black nails, an ear cuff and a couple bracelets including a rainbow one. They are grinning and are making a peace sign. Takanuva's eyes are making a happy expression and he is also making a peace sign (or perhaps failed bunny ears) behind the person. The background is a blue sky with wispy clouds and a beach. End ID]
My art has changed a lot, and I've grown so much, but some things have certainly stayed the same lol
#bionicle#redraw#takanuva#kid me put so much effort into figuring out drawing bionicle#I think they'd be so happy to see how I draw them now#not to get too deep on silly bonkle selfie drawing#but kid me couldn't picture how i could ever be me and an adult#I didn't know i was allowed to be like any of the things i am now#i couldn't imagine being a woman and i'm not#i couldn't imagine growing out of the things i adored and i haven't#i couldn't imagine myself being happy as an adult and even though a lot of things do suck I am#idk man looking at them side by side experiencing feelings i wanna give that kid a hug#life is fleeting and ever changing but bonkles are forever lol#anyway yeah this isn't a masterpiece or anything i just figured it'd be nice to put it here#please excuse text mistakes i am very tired as usual

Ye gods, the continued existence of billford antis in 2024 is so genuinely funny that I can't even be annoyed at them. Like, tri-sexuality won, babes. RIP to y'all tho, must be sad to hate fun so much.
#megan whines into the empty abyss of cyberspace#the funniest/most indicative of anti perfermative morality take I've seen so far has been#'billford isn't *actually* canon it's an ~allegory~ for an abusive relationship'#like#it's not an allegory for a relationship like they very much did have *a* relationship#you don't have to believe they fucked and sure I guess you can bend over backwards and say it was platonic#(whatever that fucking means in this context)#but a relationship very much was had#also I don't know anyone who would seriously argue that it *wasn't* abusive like c'mon#I'm sorry 18-22 y/o antis but I was in college when Not What He Seems aired and *that* was the episode that made me consider billford#the idea that the author might have had a history with bill was tossed around as far back as Dreamscaperers#and listen hell yeah it's abusive that's why it's fun and cool and sexy sorry for having good taste#I am a grown thirty year old adult with a forty hour job and one of those legendary mortgages the old timers whisper about#I have a healthy web of family friends and acquaintances even!#I like horror man it's fun#I dunno what to tell you I thought it was cool when bill possessed ford and made him drive a nail through his own hand I thought it was sex

ana with literally every character, even when they're actively trying to harm her: heyyy it's okay wait! we can talk this out!! we're all just people!!!
ana with erik specifically: HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE
meanwhile he's just
i am Fascinated by what i ended up doing with these two. it was an afterthought at the time but like what do you MEAN they're both victimized by a vengeful spirit who clearly represents depression and other misc teenage mental illness, and ana is able to fight the spirit off bc having friends gave her confidence but erik can't because he's all alone, and then ana saves him inside his own mindscape out of reluctant solidarity
but then he pretends to betray ana, proving her original suspicions right, but it's not really about betraying her but getting revenge on the evil spirit and destroying himself in the process???
WHAT DO YOU MEAN ERIK VOLUNTEERS TO TAKE THE POWERS THE SPIRIT HAD ORIGINALLY GIVEN ANA WHICH SHE THEN RELINQUISHED TO SAVE HIM SO THE SPIRIT CAN BE FREED AND HE CAN USE THEM TO MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE
GIRL WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THIS EPILOGUE. YOU GO FOR NEITHER OF THE ROMANTIC INTERESTS????? like she gets a girl's number so she can be like "eh mayyybe i'm gay" but it's some random NPC what was i DOING i fumbled this resolution so hard. i really took things in a different direction in terms of my personal narrative at the time, and it definitely goes against the overall spirit and theme i'd originally envisioned. which means oh my god am i going to earnestly try to rework this novel
WAIT BUT THEN???
#yeah no i'm remastering this it fucks so hard the bones are more than good enough to apply some adult logic i missed as a teen#wow this novel is like my beating heart holy shit man#ahhh??!?!?#my writing

okay so i’ve been gone all day so i’m finally posting my fionna and cake initial thoughts. and since i’ve seen only a few people talking about my second favorite alternate finn, i’d thought i’d share the big thing i was thinking about during episode 5.
how the fuck does farmworld finn have that many kids???????
so i’ve always thought that farmworld and ooo operated on parallel timelines, and the show seemed to follow this too, but literally how does a 29 year old have a dead wife and a preteen kid, especially fw finn, who i seriously doubt was mentally and emotionally ready to start a family so soon after the crown was destroyed. so unless the show changed its mind and farmworld is suddenly farther in the future than ooo, i have no idea how fw finn has such a big family (cause like. the show clearly wants us to think that they’re all biological kids as opposed to adoption).
let me share my initial theory for who jay was. when i first saw him i thought he was going to be little sibling.
i mean. the years match up perfectly here, so i have no idea why they went with the option that completely messes up the timeline.
also to clear up a misconception the flashback at the beginning is almost definitely during the year ice finn spent alone freezing people (between jake the dog and crossover) before prismo's meddling destroyed the crown in the nuke, so that part holds up at least.
i could be missing something that makes all of this make sense. i'll probably rewatch this episode tonight if there's any info i missed i might add it idk
#side note adult farmworld finn is so fucking cool#my man was forced into being an ice wizard and got himself a flamethrower arm to cope#godspeed buddy#also the man's raising 5 kids BY HIMSELF. please help him#where the fuck are his parents????? where's little sibling?????#it sucks cause we'll probably never see him again#i love fw finn sooooo much you guys AUGH#he just needed to talk to simon for like 5 seconds and then simon would've realized how stupid his plan is#okay yeah i'll make a meme of that later#anyway maybe i'm missing something but idk#jay should have been little sibling end post#adventure time#the rest of the kids are fine they're clearly younger#but jay's like. as old as the timeskip what the fuck happened#fionna and cake#fionna and cake spoilers#farmworld finn#ice finn

hey! so just wondering what the ruling is with things like age gaps & the like? like, is it cool to have ships with someone like Brook involved?
(Also I know it says no adult/minor ships but you have nami/carrot listed as an example and nami’s 20 while carrot is 15)
Yes, that's totally fine! I'm interested to see what kind of Brook ships you all have in mind actually 👀
Again I'm not gonna enforce any kind of strict rules even with things like age gaps, I know it might make some people uncomfy but they can just blacklist the tag and move on. Everyone should get a chance to have fun with ships for this, so I'm not bringing the hammer down on anything haha
Also thank you for catching that anon omg I didn't even realize. For some reason I thought Carrot was way older lol I will go fix that right now!
#The mod answers#SHE'S 15?? She's baby.......#I thought she was 18 lol#One Piece#Someone mentioned Brook/Jinbe and I was like oh my god YES old man yaoi#(Jinbe's not even that old but still)#You could argue that Brook is technically 38 but I'm not going down that rabbit hole lol#I'd say tho personally no shipping Brook with the East Blue gang bc they're all. Still so very young#But they're all consenting adults so I can't really argue much further than that#But yeah I don't want to kick up too much of a fuss over what ships are 'problematic' or not#Not here for that. Here to have fun and see what rarepairs I've been missing 👀

(re-ish)watching ncis in 2023 is like came for the murder and crime solving, stayed for the absolutely unhinged tiva plotline
#zanna talks#ncis you beautiful mess of a show#like yeah it's blatantly nationalistic and Very post9/11 and us military propaganda#it likes to be misogynistic and xenophobic and try to play it as a joke#sometimes gibbs will do things that make me feel ill#and also it looooves praising cops and idolizing the maverick mentality and villifying defense lawyers#um point being it's got a lot of flaws and if i hadn't associated it with childhood nostalgia i'm not sure i could have made it far enough#in my rewatch to hit the point where it actually feels worth it past being a good distraction when i feel bad#like the point where you watch tony really start to grow and the plotlines get better and the relationships deepen etc#but man when it hits it hits#wild to watch it as an adult and realize actually the tiva stuff was there all along with effort put in and it wasnt just me making it up#75% of the time theyre just sniping at each other and being annoying coworkers but sometimes they give u a glimpse#not just of how good thye are as a dynamic but just the mcrt in general?#tony burning the letter from jeanne and trying to let go after realizing his team is like his family??#them being the ones to get ziva out of somalia and not her shitty bio dad and sticking up for her when she wants out???#them always believing in each other when they get framed ?? thanksgiving together??#coworkers as family is highly unrealistic in this day and age and maybe just in general but im willing to allow it bc man. they care.#sorry this got. away from me. what was i even talking about#ncis

Mostly just throwing spaghetti at my own mental wall and seeing what sticks, but I have Unorganized And Poorly Articulated Thoughts about the fact that Ekko and Jinx are around the same age, lost their guardians and peer groups at the same time and in a deeply traumatic way, etc.; and yet I feel like Ekko's status as a victim of their broken, oppressive, and exploitative social landscape doesn't receive remotely the same acknowledgment or weight as Jinx's.
While I'm sure that that's due in large part to the fact that Ekko has been successful at building a sense of healthy, mutualistic belonging + community with others in a way that Jinx clearly hasn't, it's nonetheless worth noting that [A] he had to build that and learn how to take care of both himself and others when he was still a child, and the maturity he exhibits is a direct and tragic result of his boyhood being cut violently short; and [B] failing to acknowledge him meaningfully as a victim and a kid, just because he seems to have 'turned out okay' or some-such, reads very distinctly to me like an extension of the documented tendency in our own world for people to "adultify" young black boys due to perceiving them as older, less innocent, and more threatening/less in need of protection than their white peers.
#Arcane#Ekko#Arcane meta#idk; it just feels like (between the two) we readily recognize Jinx as a victim because her need for help is more overt#but with Ekko we're more like '[handwave] he's fine; he's got it; he's turned out okay'#and I'm just not completely convinced that that isn't due in part to unconscious race + gender biases#expecting the black boy to man up and tough it out and basically de-victimize HIMSELF with discipline and elbow grease#while being like 'oh no; poor baby buffeted around by the big bad unfair world!' toward the white girl#it's not that Jinx deserves LESS acknowledgement/help as a victim but that Ekko deserves MORE#like yeah; he HAS turned out okay - but he and Jinx are two sides of the exact same tragic coin#their victimhood looks different and the care they need is different; but even Ekko's comparative 'success' is just very sad to me#because a kid shouldn't HAVE TO take on such adult burdens#and the pain/wrongness of that shouldn't be understated just because the weight didn't break him

I think 'cringe culture' is the next one that needs to be put up on the high shelf so people can't reach it. It's lost almost all it's intended meaning to me when people say 'cringe culture is dead' now because people use that deflect any criticism of poor behavior/bad faith takes. It's become not about, 'I like what I like, who cares!', or 'my blog, I post what I want!' and more about people expecting not only that their niche head-cannons will be respected, but that they will be validated and adopted by everyone in a ~fandom~, including creators and actors.
It's become an excuse to linger around in a fandom you've grown to dislike it and to spew negativity because, 'cringe culture is dead so I can rage about my ship not going cannon'. Because no one seems to understand anymore that they can walk away from a story at any time if it no longer makes them happy. Or even that their specific ideas for where a story should go are not necessarily even good, or the story the creators wanted to tell.
It's become a weird shield for people to wield when they are told that maybe, possibly, they may need to take a step back and log off and that it's not that deep. Cringe culture is dead so it's okay to be absolutely unhinged about something, even as a full-grown adult. There is no line between healthy enjoyment and unhinged obsession anymore cause 'cringe culture is dead!'
I think it's also fed into the whole belief that 'cannon doesn't actually matter do whatever you want!' crowd which, again, devolves into demanding that certain niche head-cannons or fannon takes are more important than cannon and people thinking it's okay and even correct to bitch at creators and/or actors.
#this post brought to you by no ~fandom~ in particular just by me being on this website for 10+ years and getting TIRED#idk man the more and more I see this phrase it's tied to shit that is like.... truly out of pocket behavior. esp for adults.#like I'm sorry yeah I *do* expect ppl in their 20s & 30s to have a healthier relationship with TV & movies & books etc#than some 13 year old. that's just like....normal.#I'm just sick to death of seeing the sentiment at this point cause it no longer means what it was intended to mean I feel#and with this swing at a hornet's nest. I log off. cause I have to get ready for work lmao#erin explains it all
