Kabru’s behavior in Dungeon meshi is absolute bonkers if you look from a logical standpoint.

Kabru really wants to get know Laois, which keeps on ignoring him on the surface at every turn.

Then, in the dungeon, he finally gets the chance to talk to him, while Laois gets into fight with his former colleague and then half their party gets wiped out by Laois’ transformed sister. And after that Laois unintentionally brushes into Kabru’s trauma by making a dish out of a monster, Laois’ special interest and Kabru’s trauma.

And despite everything, Kabru does everything to help and protect Laois and his party from now on.

For a person who at this point theatrically should still fall into the “crush” category.

While Kabru’s past and his dislike of the canaries and elves generally plays a role for his behavior as well, Laois is the biggest motivation for his action.

No matter that, even if a wrong decision could cost so many lives, some he had sworn to never allow to repeat itself, he still does everything to help Laois and keep him from harm.

Absolute insane behavior from him.

i’ve been thinking about the cadillac seat and how daniel’s team (and daniel) have made it clear he’s not interested. the two names most tied to the seat are currently valtteri and, more prominently, checo. i think it’s important for us to acknowledge that neither valtteri or checo have ever been out of f1, this is their first time. it’s only natural that they’re interested to fight for a seat and that people are hyping them up. whether we like it or not daniel has already done this song and dance once before and it would take a lot for a man to: be fired. come back. get fired again. come back again??? he’s already done that whole fiasco and as sad as it makes me i completely understand why he and his team have made it very clear he’s not interested. i just wanted to get this thought out of the way before the rumors really started picking up because checo is most likely getting that seat and we just have to accept that.

I find it funny out of the Sonic characters we have met so far in the movies (four)

only one of them - Tails - has kept their current voice actor from the games.

Sometimes I sit back and I think about the fact that Mr Stanford I am a man of math and science Pines would sit back and make all those lovingly rendered drawings in his journals

I mean the journals are somewhere between research journal and personal diary, despite what Ford might insist otherwise, and it's just cute to think of him being like- I must doodle this tiny dinosaur in my notes.... And draw a bag of jelly beans.... Entirely for science purposes of course.....

Or him making a silly little diagram of the portal test, even though his text description would've been enough (he genuinely did not need to draw a figure throwing a mannequin into the portal like this and it is very adorable to me okay)

Or, when he's sleep deprived and terrified of Bill, taking comfort in doodling some silly little coffee pots (and you can see just how much messier his linework and hatching is here and oof)

Just- I genuinely do not think it's much of a coincidence that Bill called himself a muse.

There is a very very deeply repressed romantic artist streak to Ford. He draws a lot, he gets wrapped up in grand ideas and grand gestures, he even gets really poetic in his "scientific" ramblings. I think he would've been happier in some timelines as a published author or an illustrator, but he got pushed into the sciences more aggressively by his family because it was more lucrative than being an artist.

very interesting how everyone and their mothers bash steven universe for redeeming villains who tried to commit mass genocide, killed and harmed thousands of innocent civilians, physically and psychologically abused their family member; but they sympathize with and coddle catra, who did much of the same things.

(while i like steven universe and i do think that people hate on it a lot more than it deserves, i can admit that the show had its fair share of problematic elements. i'm not going to defend it to hell and back like some people do with spop)

hmm liu bang being a verified member of the baby-tosser's club is not as cut and dried as i thought, apparently it's only mentioned in xiang yu's biography but is omitted in his. that's a conflict of interest if i've ever seen it. that being said, u gotta admit nothing about han gaozu make this seem at all out of character for him.

Have I recommended Anna Merlan's Republic of Lies? I need more people to read Republic of Lies.

People in power absolutely lie to and exploit us, AND anti-intellectual conspiracy theories only oppress us more. Two things can be true at the same time.

next episode will either be the funniest thing theyve ever pulled, or the saddest shit in the world, either way, im excited

So semi-recently I rewatched The Good Place again and I know a lot of people skipped Season 3 for whatever reason, but I was thinking about that scene where Eleanor is complaining about not knowing how far away her taxi is because the app tells her in kilometres and Simone is like "it's about six miles". Which is funny to me because yeah, maybe Simone studied overseas or something, but since they never specifically mention that my first thought it, why would she know that? (Unless all Australians can convert kilometres to miles in their heads easily, in which case I'm just stupid ig). I feel like it's a weird part of the whole americanisation thing that people who live in other countries are just assumed to know everything about American culture like it's the default, and either everything in their culture is some sort of alternative method they have to consciously learn, or said culture goes out of its way to teach American systems because they're somehow relevant enough to the society to warrant teaching. I was never taught in school the imperial system, we were never explained that the seasons are different in the northern hemisphere (well we were but in the context of what causes seasons in general), or that in America seasons start on specific dates rather than the start of the month, and honestly, I still struggle to wrap my head around the concept of tropics in the south. I think part of it is how much of the media is from the US nowdays, but still, the culture you're raised in is going to be your default. It doesn't matter how relevant the US becomes, I'm probably still not going to know what a mile is

"Haha this child of ill omen superstition is so silly humans sure are foolish ^^" you internalized that so hard

[schizotypalpd-culture-is]

questioning stpd culture is having a parent diagnosed with it and then wondering if you actually have it or just somehow picked up the traits but are perfectly normal otherwise despite how absurd that is to say

I know I said this in the discord last night but I have NO fucking clue when the UA staff get any sleep. Like they have to spend most of the day teaching and then grading papers and preparing lesson plans and then also go out on patrols as a Pro Hero and then also whatever side projects they have going on like????

BRUH these fuckers are running on caffeine and spite for real.

[godblooded]

okay. i get where they’re going with the ‘rook released the evanuris’ take but… genuinely trying to do The Right Thing when something dangerous is causing a calamity makes sense and idk why you would come to THAT kind of regret?

[RECALIBRATE] How frequently does your muse evaluate their own ways of thinking? Have they little self-insight/feel set in their minds for better or worse, or are they constantly questioning their own outlook? To the point of self-doubt, even? <3

↳ INTELLECT HEADCANONS MEME

Chishiya almost never evaluates his own way of thinking. He's confident in how he thinks and knows he's the smartest in the room. Or, in a rare case, there's someone else of equal, if different, intellect. He doesn't need to evaluate how he thinks because it works FOR HIM. And that's what matters. He's always operated this way, ever since he was younger to how is now. He's never really CHANGED his approach and he doesn't learn to either.

He's not someone to reevaluate how he thinks because of other's emotions or a situation that would typically be considered 'TRAUMATIC' to others. Even if how he thinks is considered heartless. ( And it is.) Efficiency is what matters to him. He can adjust to new information and new perspectives, but that still falls in line with his typical thinking. He's very aware of how he thinks and he's perfectly content with it. HE OWNS IT.

( At least up until the rare instance of emotions getting involved and messing with his thinking but in that case his reaction is typically to PUSH IT AWAY or not acknowledge the why when he's doing something. )

Ann on the other hand is more fluid when it comes to her thinking. She has a fairly solid grasp of how she thinks. PRACTICAL and LOGICAL, but NOT HEARTLESS. In this same vein of recognition though, she IS aware that sometimes her emotions do drive her actions and ways of thought. She acknowledges that much about herself and sometimes it can make her question her thoughts or approach to particular situations. By no means is she a bleeding heart - she WILL make hard decisions and emotions don't possess her so to speak. Rather, they might alter HOW she approaches a situation. And this she is aware of.

. With Ann, her work both in crime scene investigations as well as later in the forensics labs tends to play a large role. She's constantly exposed or needs to consider different perspectives. Yes, she has her general way of thinking that she sticks with. But working with detectives, other forensic scientists, etc, also exposes you to a lot of DIFFERENT ways of thinking. As such, Ann's way of thinking has changed throughout her life. Other ways of thinking generally tend to be more of a SECONDARY way of thinking for her. She has HER way of thinking, but when it comes to working on cold cases or in some games in the Borderlands, she might call on other types of thinking or at least consider them. Self-doubt is very rare with her, though it is more likely to happen with her rather than Chishiya. / @united-as-one
