Per your post about Gale, I think it boils down to the fact that Liam Hemsworth is charmless. I remember that during the first Hunger Games movie era a lot of people really did like Gale and wanted to see him with Katniss, this was also right after Liam and Miley got engaged. But then they had broke up and a lot of people blamed Liam for Miley's "spiral" in 2013/2014 and the release of Wrecking Ball and all of this coinciding with the release of the remaining movies, his reputation never quite recovered so no one really had sympathy for Gale because he had the face of the guy that seemingly destroyed America's sweetheart. Not to mention this was also the height of Chris Hemsworth's career and between Liam and Chris, Chris is just more attractive and charming and Liam just looked like a dude struggling and failing to get out of his much more talented older brother's shadow, like a nepotism baby almost (even though Liam was the first of the two to really be "famous" because of his relationship to Miley.)
This makes a lot of sense, actually, the drama with Miley definitely didn't help and he really doesn't have Chris' charm (or talent) so things never looked good for him. I think there's also the way that even during the hunger games promo, Josh was such a compelling presence that his charm completely eclipsed Liam too. There was nothing trying to make us go for Gale. Not in the series or with Liam. I think you're right, he wasn't an appealing person, no matter how objectively hot he is, and things kept stacking against him.
#i completely forgot that thor came out around the same time#liam never really managed to move past the 'thors brother' and 'mileys ex' labels#that definitely doesn't help him#but i think it does create an interesting discussion because a lot of characters get a pass because they're played by someone hot#and gale is no where near being the worst character but people don't give him an inch of slack#dude is out there getting away with nothing#and that fascinates me with the coryo discussion and the way people are willing to let Snow get away with everything#just because of Tom Blyth and the fact that hes hot#but i guess thing is that yes hes pretty#but the point is that he's charming#and Liam was never considered charming#you need to be charming to get people rooting for you#this makes a lot of sense#thg#i really need a tag for asks

Kaka compilation
Because everyone is sleeping on him. Witness his greatness!! First two Kaka colored icons were colored by me, lineart by Ryoko Kui though!
Kaka & Kiki are kinda like Laios & Falin… Kaka being stoic and giving repressed energy like early Laios, Kiki being cryptic and always smiling and kinda soft-looking. Autism siblings 2, ostracized and othered as kids and have a deep bond due to sticking together through it all, though unlike with Laios their parents are very loving so Kaka developed family as a big value more than Laios (bc asides for Falin Laios doesn’t care much about it).
In the gnome festival comic you can see Kaka is more emotive than he seems! Full with a :3 face, and he’s the one crying at the end. He’s insecure about his legs and being tall… It really got to him. Conceal don’t feel. In the gnome festival comic you also see him sensing others’ gaze on him and that something is off unlike Kiki, again Laios-like in the way that judgement from others gets to him more than her.
#The twins are so autistic swag#A falin just as chilled out and smiling and a laios who never stopped repressing#They’re so neurodivergent and they’re allowed to just exist I love you Kui. Kaka is just literally me#I looove characters that are hard to know and hard to read/easily misunderstood. They’re my favorite thing#LOOK AT THE WAY HE SMILES THE WAY HE BLUSHESSS HE’S PERFECT and I would take a harpoon to the chest for him thank u#I do love Kiki too btw but I’ve been seeing her in fancontent and posts way more than Kaka so I had to give him some spotlight#But also Laios is my fave of the Toudens so this very much checks out#Their pre-Flokes story would be interesting to analyze too#Dungeon meshi#delicious in dungeon#kaka floke#Kaka#Kiki and kaka#floke twins#As you may guess from my new-ish icon I am in my kaka era#ALSO I SWEAR TO GOD STOP BEING MEAN ABOUT HIS NAME#KA IS A SYLLABLE IN MY IRL NAME. YES I WAS BULLIED AND CALLED KAKA AS A KID. MY NAME ALSO MEANS UGLY STUFF IN A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE#KAKA’S A PRETTY NAME I’LL DIE ON THIS HILL. IT’S NOT WEIRD IF YOU DON’T MAKE IT WEIRD#Oh also another laios falin parallel: they both sort-of-date the same woman

Kinda 😾 rn cause I realized the Senna show made the "can we be equal? 👉👈" scene SOOOO much less intimate/cute. Upon watching it, I was too distracted by "Oh! They're referencing dialog that actually happened!!" but now I'm peeved having rewatched the actual clip 😭
Why would they do this to me specifically
#skflka sorry i love to nitpick#i guess this kinda thing is fascinating to me#why change the setting and layout so much???? if you're going to portray dialog we have actual footage of#to me theres just smth so palpably different about them sitting pretty intimately close together on a couch#in much more informal zipped down racesuits. very chill. very close. etc. much more levity(if a bit awkward lol)#vs having them in this very formal setting. sitting in separate chairs. in full racesuit. team and press surrounding them.#having ayrton sit so much more stiff and alain more lax whereas they were both lax in the original. ayrton even more so w his arm draped#i guess im curious how little things like this contribute to the overall portrayal and narrative they are specifically pushing#id include clips to compare bcs i feel like the way they have them speak the lines is sooooo different from irl#but clipping netflix is so annoying LOL maybe later#smth about how they make ayrton feel like this innocent puppy whereas they feel like they're on very equal footing in the irl clip#idk how to describe it. i guess i felt in the original clip alain felt way more cutesy and earnest#joking abt fighting and being equal. and ayrton laughs w him and is much more the intense one yknow#whereas he is portrayed very earnestly in the netflix one. as if alain is this older driver who doesnt take him seriously.#hope this makes sense :) yes i am the annoying fan who holds up a microscope to everything slkjal#anyways. i love that clip. alain is sooooo cute in it#prosenna#catie.rambling.txt#f1

Pac: This is my secret base. And this is Pequito!
Fit: Pequito! *Immediately starts cooing over Pequito*
Pac: [Laughs]
Fit: Sorry, sorry.
Pac: No no, that's good! He likes you, you know, he likes you.
#FitMC#Pactw#QSMP#Hideduo#FitPac#I THINK this was October 27 but I don't remember well enough to put that as a tag#I usually am pretty good about adding dates to my file names but sometimes I forget#anyways. Why'd Fit coo over Pequito like he was a dog LMAO#''He likes you'' You don't say Pac#Y'know I wasn't huge on the minimes#However. I do think we as a community really slept on the concept of Islanders taking care of their partners' minimes#(er or I guess. Their roommates' minimes)#Like ''yes this minime is a nefarious Federation thing but it DOES look like a small adorable version of the person I have a crush on. So.'#I'm just saying. This island's greatest strength is love and their greatest weakness is also them being gay idiots sometimes#Q#Fit#Pac

People can point to Limited Life as the flower husbands divorce season all they want but imo it is THE BEST version of FH. They might have divorced TO YOU. But I see them secretly making out behind a wall
#trafficshipping#flower husbands#LIKE DONT GET ME WRONG. I totally understand and respect the ‘Jimmy not saying ILY back is his way of saying he doesn’t care about Scott’#I think it’s cool when ppl do stuff with that idea!! but like!! if u REALLYY look at the context it seems pretty clear to ME at least that#that was a Bad Boy thing not a personal divorce thing#I mean. that is their ONE AND ONLY negative interaction THE WHOLE SEASON. and Jimmy literally TELLS him that it’s because ‘bad boys don’t#love anyone (except their mothers)’. like idk guys. as much as I love the idea of it being Jimmy shunning Scott for how mean he was in 3L it#just doesn’t really work as a pivotal character moment when ALL OF THEIR OTHER INTERACTIONS THAT SEASON contradict it.#and YES when I say LimL is the best version of FH I am including 3L. LimL!FH tops 3L!FH no competition#idk. I guess all I’m REALLY saying is. I would love to see some LimL!FH that isn’t angst

#my art#trans#side note: following tags are a pretty long thought dump#ugh okay i'm going to be honest#i didn't know anything about predstrogen until she was banned and many people started talking about her#also looked through photomatt's blog very briefly#to me he sounds callous- if that's the right word. he just didn't seem to care about what happened to predstrogen prior to her being banned#also? car with hammers that explodes multiple times feels far from being a serious death threat to me#yes predstrogen explicitly mentioned death wishes#but i don't know. what she said is more cartoonish than serious#also something i noticed from photomatt: where is the evidence that predstrogen threatened other users?#i haven't been looking into all this that deeply#but that photomatt stating that as part of the reason for predstrogen's ban and then not elaborating is. weird. for lack of better words#on a slightly different note: i love tumblr and how i can be my silly queer self and nobody cares#but if we don't stand up for each other — especially those who are constant targets for harrassment and other crappy things#tumblr will eventually die or bear no resemblance to the site i enjoy so much#maybe i'm privileged! being a trans masc guy#or maybe i'm ignorant#but i guess i have a tendency to say a lot. and i hate staying silent when i have the opportunity to speak out#so i'm going to scream#and i hope y'all are going to speak in support of trans women too

it's not sinking in that today might be the last day in my house and town for many months to come
#like how do i even feel#on one hand im excited because like now that i finally agreed to dads stupid whims he technically will have to give in to things#ive been wanting since FOREVER like going to the gym#plus it's impossible to eat junk food when he's there he won't even let me kacchi maggi because maida hai bimar ho jayegi#and aadhe se zyada din toh pyaaz ye sab nahi kha sakte so it rules out any outside food#which is so good because like i just found out im pre diabetic lol#like borderline sugar like ab kuch nahi kiya toh seedha type 2 diabetes#so i need to eat healthy or ill literally die#i mean eventually but whatever being diagnosed with this in my 20s would kill me#also simply the fear of living with him is so much that i HAVE to study#and i want to now it's high time#but yeah want doesn't really work for me#i read a quote somewhere that 'goals' don't mean anything because winners and losers have the same goals#and i was like WOAH. like the person who gets an all india rank had the same goal as me: to pass the exam with good marks#but they succeeded and i didn't so it's isn't our goals that differentiate us#which ik is obvious but like still idk put things in perspective#anyway yeah that way my life MIGHT be fixed#but there's also living ALONE with my sociopathic FATHER who has more mood swings than me on pms#and being cut off frm the rest of civilisation and yk developed roads and buildings and ice cream shops#i guess it is mostly food ig :( which is good like the most junk food i can eat there is a burger from a nearby stall and that's pretty#much it they literally do not even have havmor or anything in walking distance forget scoop wali ice cream#but i like my bed and i like my ceiling with the stars and i like looking out of my window and knowing that the first ever crush of my life#lives right next to me and i like knowing that ill meet my bestfriend atleast once a month#i don't really love my mom or my brother tbh but idk maybe ill miss them it's weird ive never lived without them#i don't know i really hope that this is like a boot camp kota types experience rather than so much isolation that i sink deep into#depression. but then ive hit pretty shocking lows this year so hopefully i can handle it#my sister did say that when she lived alone with him for a month it was quite peaceful and okay because he usually gets more angry when mom#is around warna mostly he's fine#i don't know i don't know bhagwan ji please ab aur mushkil mat banana life bohot jhatke de chuke ho already ab pls#mujhe apni galtiyo ko sudharne ka mauka dena 🙏

headcanon that it was Pike's Enterprise crew that started the tradition of Captain's Day because Erica wanted an excuse to give Pike kitschy Father's Day type gifts
#it was a whole process#christine is ride or die for erica so she's in#spock thinks it's illogical but christine says 'we're doing this' and...#look he's been observing his commanding officers long enough to know that when she says 'do a thing' the correct response is 'yes ma'am'#nyota's already got gifts picked out#joseph would let the girls get away with murder#jenna wasn't really looking to get dragged into this but she's not really trying to get away either#la'an was against it but una thinks it's funny so i guess this is happening#pelia's always down for a lark#una doesn't mind letting them have their fun as long as she doesn't have to plan anything and if it gets chris outta his funk all the bette#honestly man she's got other shit to handle go to therapy and help her out#it's a raging success#erica's already planning next years and she's pretty sure the captain could be talked into a first officer's day...#strange new worlds#erica ortegas#chris pike#christine chapel#spock#nyota uhura#joseph m'benga#jenna mitchell#la'an noonien singh#pelia#una chin riley

30 year old birthday pros:
-hang out wit friends
-watch hotel Transylvania 2 : the fetish film
-play video games and get snacks
- 6ish months on t and pass to cops
Cons;
- first car accident
-my car hates me and is ruined forever
Pros:
-car got to bite another car ? that’s enrichment maybe?/
-driver was a former Kia soul driver which reaffirms my theory that only kia souls can damage another Kia soul
#sigh. what a mixed day. well maybe this means the rest of my 30s will be good.#hit them at like 5mph from 4 feet away but still cracked my bumper and ruined my day for the next 3 months#for reference the only other accident I’ve been in is when /I/ got rear ended badly at a light by… another green Kia soul…#(the woman was crying to an npr podcast with her eyes closed)#it’s just such a fucking bummer bc I’ve driven flawlessly not a single ticket or me accident in 12 years#despite the many red light runners I’ve narily avoided (<even got D and D insurance bc of that) and the time my breaks gave out#when I was going 50 and pulled up next to a cop….. yes like my breaks stopped working as I was driving to work going 50…..#and the many many hydroplaning / driving in inches of water moments#y’all would understand my heartbreak if you knew how deeply I love my car. one of my fave things. I cried for hours when I got rear ended#and thought it would be totaled (thankfully MO is a 80% state and 8k damages was still under the threshold )#and now I am no better than a Tesla driver. for not looking. and assuming car in front of me alread merged when it started driving.#sigh. well at least I got he himmed by the cop and went 12 years without causing an accident. which is pretty good I guess.#and can’t kill myself in penance or my car would be sad :( and also my friends or whatever. but ny green Kia soul mostly.#a day in the life of steeve

I think for me the allure in base releases in persona games is how it feels cloudy and there's still mystery involved regarding how one should go about the concepts and characters introduced in the story. as inconvenient as it is, it's fun to scour different media release after, or even before, that release, to see how they tried to present these concepts and characters, how they actually came out to be, and how they decide to shape them henceforth, adding on to what was already introduced and simply building on it, or topping on details that probably weren't obvious in the initial release, or something they wanted to be more prominent to evoke a more specific image of those ideas.
it's fun to look at famitsu magazines and decipher what those game teasers were all about. it's exciting to read through novels or listen to drama tracks to look a new perspectives of the same story, or even look beyond it. the art book gets released and youre looking through creator comments and concept art and deciding whether to agree to these ideas and decisions or not
but when the re-releases came, golden and royal for me, the whole charm of the game was wiped away and just became too... saturated. the eerieness of bright eye searing yellow wasn't eerie anymore, it just look more mellow and hopeful. from fog and static, theres sub and glitter. which is I guess what they were pretty much going for, when they decided to try out a new technique to draw an audience in. the red and white and black gave a monochrome outlook to the player's worldview, and the flashy and chaotic elements of the ui and other game design made it feel like you were breaking out of the off camera elements that felt too limiting, too controlling and tame, yet dark. now, the flashiness felt like too much sugar in a dessert meant to be a bit more bittersweet. there's a new meaning of rebellion vs control considering how yal's prominence in the plot was completely overshadowed with what az had going on.
I guess what in trying to say in the end is that both the base releases and re-releases have their own charm and can be enjoyed in different ways and through different perspectives. it just makes me a little sad to see how these concepts and characters shrouded with mystery and aching to be uncovered, which is what intrigued me in the first place, were just... stripped naked entirely. you look under the sheets torn off by the people that wanted more people to look at these creations and you see that it wasn't even the same thing underneath. it feels like they stuffed all the things people could like than retaining what these things had that people already like, it's just that they didn't realize they liked it in the first place. their insides were mangled and now their outsides were prettied up as well. all this mystery and intrigue I once found were just blank spaces filled in by someone else rather than the audience themselves
yosuke's closeted nature, kanji's relationship with his own orientation, naoto's own identity and representation. even chie's tomboyism and teddie's malleable inhuman body. and even outside of that, there's adachi, another label slapped on him and exaggerated only the traits that would make him more marketable to an active market that wants to be spoonfed to fill their egos and say they're right. and I sit here looking over all that had happened to realize these writers are not as sincere as they could seem. it's a big project after all, and there's too many people looking over your shoulder.
and the nature of fandom itself, I suppose. if there's mystery and intrigue pressured by audience reaction profit, then then fog shrouding them would dissipate and theres no fun looking through the unknown anymore
#kommento#long post#// oops another essay let's go to sleep.+#// I talk about this pretty vaguely because I'm tired but also how I try to apply it to other things#// I hate how pstudio saw how people reacted to adachi. then they completely fucked over his potential in Golden#// yes I'm glad he's getting recognition! I'm glad he's rightfully popular considering his place in the story and how it was executed!#// but why did you exaggerate him the Wrong Way. couldn't you have handled him with more grace. this looks rather careless.#// his sl is a giant ick to me because I know where this came from and where it's going#// his promo art his merch art. however he's been presented after that just sucks it absolutely sucks. why did you do that to him#// I wish he had a lower profile and it's the fans that massacre him but NO official sources had to do it to.+#// this phenomenon also happened to akc sorry walnut head I'm so sorry#// this could've been elaborated in a three volume novel spinoff series that nobody read because it was never translated#// bangs my head into the wall and waddles into bed to wake up to my own pool of blood I guess

while we’re in the spirit of celebrating basic autonomy over things like hair I know most of us are too young to have participated in anything at the time but as a society we really need to apologise to britney for a certain event circa 2007
#okay. so. gender standards are awful and hopefully they’re not what they were then but they do exist. and people are being chill rn#relatively. but please if a man had to remind fans that hair grows back??? then imagine if it were a cis gender conforming woman#I know there were other things going on at the time but none of the accusations against her were ever fair#people like a predictable; controllable image especially in feminine celebs and I want to say we do not. ever. have a right to that#which only ties further into our (my) discussion of gender and the whole babygirl concept and patriarchy and transphobia behind it#anyway I say it all the time but. never underestimate the power of existing unapologetically and challenging this entitlement#in any way. and the great thing is that it’s the same cause whether you’re halsey in 2017 or luke in 2024. yes it primarily a womens rights#issue but you don’t have to be a woman to contribute something meaningful. even a man can challenge the patriarchy (shock horror!)#anyway I’ve been thinking about what I have to say about recent events and this is it. the makeup and boy ep and now this he knows#exactly what he’s doing and I’m pretty damn proud#but we have to do our part and keep talking about how we need to be okay if a female singer did this. etc. which starts here I guess#luke hemmings#5 seconds of summer#5sos#britney spears#halsey
