I simply think this fandom doesn't give Wei Wuxian enough credit for the various ways in which he saved Lan Wangji
#mdzs#mo dao zu shi#wangxian#idk man- i just see a lot of “Lan Wangji has always been protecting Wei Wuxian” posts and its like...#I mean... Lan Wangji has always certainly been trying to protect Wei Wuxian#it took him a long time to figure how to successfully do that though#rereading the books rn and noticing theres a lot of instances that could be read as lwj being frustrated over his inability to protect wwx#like he seemed ready to cry when wwx went missing for a while and then came back with the cursed leg#lwj has always been great at protecting wwx from physical threats (ex: waterborn abyss) but had no idea how to protect him from himself#meanwhile wwx has always been instictually good at saving lwj from both#like I'm 100% lwj would've become like Jiang Cheng if wwx hadn't snapped him out of the blindly following authority thing#and also like... 15 y/o lwj wasnt happy with his life. he was lonely and stressed and literally signing up to be flogged whenever he goofed#wwx is who allowed lwj to grow up by showing him what it was like to actually be a kid (shown in story whenever lwj gets drunk)#he led lwj to having a more flexible mindset. and it both let lwj relax and set lwj up to be a better parent#looking into lwj's dynamic with the juniors- he lets them break a fuck ton of the petty rules and encourages them to question authority#he also teaches them to not be married to any one meathod of problem solving#wwx is also able to save lwj from his own stubbornness#ex: carrying lwj when he broke his leg. getting lwj to cough up bad blood. getting lwj to keep the rabbits#wwx also tends to give lwj the words he has trouble saying himself. helps him communicate#wwx also protects lwj in fights a lot but thats narratively less important#except the various times wwx puts himself in danger to help lwj. those times are what made it so lwj could never move on from wwx#like with the cave incident#or when wwx helped surpress the arm instead of using the chaos to escape cloud recesses#tldr i guess: i think this fandom tends to treat lwj being the best like its natural to him when really wwx accidentaly rewired his brain#I'm looking directly at fanfic writers who act like the Lans would've treated wwx better than the Jiangs#lwj had to do so much work and self reflection post meeting wwx to be the way he is. he is not the sole product of the Lan teachings

Idk why, but for some reason, my brain is developing a headcanon where if Mr. Puzzles has a favorite song, it would be one that got scrapped from a certain movie or is from a deleted scene like the song, “No One Would Listen” from a deleted scene from the 2004 Phantom of the Opera movie. I feel like he could relate to that one a lot or to something similar, but hey, what do I know? It’s just a guess at this point! It’s just a theory!

Scar has an old series called the crafting dead, a mc mod playthrough based off the walking dead.
I like to consider this his backstory, before hermitcraft, this is where he came from. He has experience fighting, he’ll go the lengths to survive, even eating corpses.
he’s a perfect candidate for the games, Watchers think, he’s an interesting one.
he’s taunted with a promise of food if he plays, so he agrees.

omg as an aside from my tags on the last post. i briefly worked for a company that wrote letters to political reps on behalf of constituents who couldn't/wouldn't write to them themselves for whatever reason and i know for a fact that letters are WAAAAY more effective at influencing government officials than emails are, and sometimes they're even more effective than calls. emails are better than nothing but a lot of times (especially if they all have the same subject line/content) they will just be considered spam and get deleted without making it to the rep at all. letters are way more likely to make it to them for them to read! they Are more effort but that is a big part of why they're more influential too. so if there's an issue you're passionate about i rly encourage u to write a letter/letters to the people who can do something about it 🙏 there are websites out there where you can write the content of a letter to your rep and they will send it for you but i don't have any on hand atm, but otherwise writing and sending a letter yourself is not as intimidating as it might seem and is a great way to make your voice heard

I think that people need to recognize where their baseline is because a lot of generalized advice will work well for one baseline but not another
are you a person who defaults to working or defaults to rest?
are you a person who defaults to scrupulosity or defaults to laxity?
are you a person who defaults to minimizing yourself or defaults to aggrandizing yourself?
advice from one side of a spectrum is good, but maybe not applicable to you and that's okay

Wait you ship Albedou with Tighnari!? Not to sound rude btw
Hmmm I don't really ship them ?? Like, yeah I clearly don't mind the ship and lol i drew them for fun because it is my main and the one fictional character I'm simping for more than 4yrs now but
I can't see it as a romantic relationship (i am convinced abt tighnari aromantic rep and bisexual sorry) 😔
And my mind was like "what if albedo flirtly provoking tighnari during science session and--- oh." the second I regained my consciousness, my hand already slipped and drew a comic.

hc + innocence
Send me hc + a word of your choosing and I’ll write a headcanon relating to that word!
Tumblr media
Innocence is something that D has and always will cherish regardless of how he views humanity in general. There is a lot of cruelty in the world, but for every customer who fails at keeping to their contract there are those who love their animals like their own children. It's the good that keeps a glimmer of hope ignited in the shopkeeper's heart, that humanity might not inevitably doom itself and one day earn the right to enter paradise when it all comes to an end. Children in particular keep this hope alive and while D isn't overly fond of how noisy and rambunctious they are, most youngsters do love animals more than their adult counterparts. They also tend to see the true forms of the pets at this store, unlike grown-ups who are blinded by their desires and see only what they want to see. For these reasons, D is more patient when it comes to children but even they must be careful to treat their animal friends well, and to learn from any mistakes they do make. Innocence is a wonderful thing but like trust, it's gone forever once lost.

Reminder that if you wanna participate in Dom but you don't enjoy the Coliseum, you can breed dragons to sell to trainers, donate treasure, gems, or items to the dom bank, and attend for public buys/raffles, or make small art for badges! Dom isn't just a Coli Lover's Game
Attending is one of the more intimidating things on this list but I think most of not all the flights have tutorials for it, along with access to a parser that lets you copy/paste most or all of the dragon data into the record sheet easily instead of doing it all by hand. I'm a Coli Fan and even I think Attending is the most fun part of a Dom Push (Though I might also be Autistic in a way that makes me love Playing Spreadsheets)
All of these are appreciated in small amounts even! Every dragon sold to coli trainers counts! Every gem and bit of treasure counts! Any time you spend attending for the Public Buys and Raffles counts! And I always want to encourage everyone to join in on dom because the more active everyone is in it, the more fun it is for everyone I think

i lowkey feel like ls would benefit from having a smaller space
like since its a pvp and interaction-focused server with less than 30 members, most of whom struggle to log on, i think itll do them some good to limit the amount of space they can traverse so that the ones who Do get on get to mess around with each other easier
doesnt need to be Super small or anything, just maybe small enough that you can fly around the whole thing in under 7 mins

*waving awkwardly at whoever happens to be walking by* Just a little heads up (since I guess I feel weird not giving any sort of notice?) that I’ll be making a point to be on here much less going forward (not disappearing, I’ll still be around, but probably only popping in now and again)… At least for now! Summer is always a difficult time of year for me, to be honest with you, and being chronically online definitely won’t help with that. So… Yeah! As per usual feel free to @ me to make sure I see something (y’all can also dm me lol no need to be shy). 💜
That’s it! Again just felt like leaving a little notice aha… Anyhoo, y’all take care and be safe :] ✌️

It seems everyone advises “put yourself first” once a relationship is suffering, but where are the people that encourage “put the relationship first”?

me writing headcanons for obscure media that's already been dead for years? its more likely than you think
Avengers Academy Loki primarily identifies as female, and even when she is presenting male, she is pretty feminine. Shes always been secure in her identity, but the first time she ever felt truly accepted and loved as who she is was when Jan offered to make her feminine clothes without a seconds hesitation.

there is this idea that crime is caused by poverty. it's so popular that people state it as fact. and i think there might be some truth to it. but honestly, i think it's overstated and the relationship between crime and poverty is a lot more complex than people think.
just anecdotally speaking, it never sat well with me because my personal experience has been that criminals tend to be opportunistic predators not people acting out of desperation. i knew lots of people who shoplifted or robbed people and almost none of them were so desperately impoverished that they needed to resort to crime.
they chose crime because it was easy money. there was nothing preventing them from getting a job. they just didn't want to work a 9 to 5. the bandit lifestyle was just a lot more convenient. let those other suckers work their asses off and then you can just rob them. i knew people who were living comfortable middle class lifestyles from boosting and drug dealing.
and the irony is, this sort of behavior actually impoverished our community in a lot of ways. it seemed to me like the crime came first. when my parents group here this area was really nice. then in the 90s and 00s crime became rampant and the entire community went to shit for a variety of reasons (luckily things have turned around in recent years thanks to some tough-on-crime policies). my own family (which was below the poverty line for most of my childhood) has been stolen from multiple times (including our car one time which really fucked us over). these people weren't robin hoods stealing from the rich and giving to the poor and they also weren't impoverished victims just trying to survive. these people were just straight up predators without a conscience.

ive thought about becoming a babysitter full time id really enjoy it, i love child care and i think im pretty good at it! i couldnt raise a kid of course but im really good at interacting with them and teaching them stuff and keeping them entertained. my friends always liked my littlest sister better, but my friends siblings always liked ME better and thought i was the coolest thing theyve ever seen. every kid ive ever met has thought i was the coolest person theyve ever met and i tend to work really well with them
