I have so many mixed throughs abt Mały Książe. And its not abt whether its good or not. I just have so many interpretations that are probably not true but my brain read the book and went brrrr
I think as a love story it easly wins. The journey to learn abt love is extremely mature in my eyes. Its not simplified like in other books (they are fine but show love in a very unrealistic sugar-coated and extreme way ). Idk it reminds me of many of my own (tho platonic) relationships. The way everything feels a little complicated, a lot of unsaid things, but u both love each other. The journey to understand is also so important.
also I know that this is a weird interpretation but I sometimes see the story abt neurodiverget experience (however accidental it may be). I mean it's subtle and its not. The main character says that he always had trouble with connections plp his age. They were into adult stuff and he was like: owo red brick. Moreover the hat situation feels like a metaphor for over interpreting/seeing things differently then most. Idk if meeting the Prince in this interpretation would be a stand in for the disorder personified or meeting another person on the spectrum that is on a different side of it, but its still the same disorder. The journey of the Little Prince also reminds me of the neurodiverget way of learning abt people, the unusual journey of growing up.
I always wondered what the sheep and the ending (more specifically the dying) means. Is the dying about killing off your child self to go on with your life. But then does it also say that we need that child in us to love, that child needs to come back to the rose. What does the sheep symbolise in all of this, its suppose to eat the trees but also might eat the rose if it doesn't have a kaganiec. The ending with Prince killing himself, its so odd isn't it. There wouldn't be anything stopping him from being written coming back in any other way. But it was by suicide, its quite curious its it.
Part of me wishes it really got more serious treatment, that maybe it could be analyzed well in high school. Tho I know full well that high school destroys any good books. I think this book should come to you at a very specific time in ur life. maybe it will mean something different for u but u will still see urself and find something for yourself. For me it was autism obvi but also like I mentioned it reminds me of some relations I have with people. maybe I need to reread it and find answers to my life in it again. there is so much to unpack with this book its a shame that everyone is so quick to dismiss it
also I like how crucial to the book the drawings are. Can't describe must draw -> also me
also like 3 words abt the movie. I think it needed some indie touch fr. It's not bad, but its painfully forgettable. The book plot is handled alright. but I find the a plot being so bloody generic. I like the idea of using little prince to apply to it to 'real life', but I'd be damned to remember anything from the a plot. pls someone make it similar in vibes to like The boy, the mole, the fox and the horse. or in any other indie/shirt animation way of doing it.

DO NOT BE AFRAID
this is combining Ovid's Heroides and the Excidium Troie because I can't stop thinking of Hermes telling him not to be afraid. what the fuck!! Ares is wearing the crown that Paris gave him.
I have. thoughts. about Paris. he's almost got this Troilos parallel in my mind, that the event that defines him in detail exists in a lost narrative that we don't have (the Cypria), but everyone else knew. the event that defines Troilos is his death (murdered, butchered by Achilles, the violence of which haunts everything after. Achilles, child killer, you can't escape that!), and the event that defines Paris is the Judgement. what's a lost text but a kind of grave!!
idk I don't think that Paris before the Judgement would recognize himself after bc when you become god touched, it rearranges your guts. you become transformed in the worst way possible! how could you recognize yourself! but I also think that all the Parises after the Judgement would recognize each other because that event is so locked into the trauma of war and the scar it leaves on the land, it's like a scar on the narrative too. it exists like this forever, over and over again, so you exist like that forever too. Troy collects grief and despairs.
Troy as trauma: Reflections on intergenerational transmission and the locus of trauma, Andromache Karanika
and Paris is like. a miserable little god/corpse-puppet or something, like a match for the gods to throw onto gasoline.
The Excidium Troie + Ovid's Heroides:
Excidium Troie, trans. Muhammad Syarif Fadhlurrahman
Ovid, Heroides 16 (trans. Harold Isbell)
a collection of things regarding Paris that made me go 😬 but under a cut bc this is getting. very long.
The Divine Twins in Early Greek Poetry, Corolla Torontonensis
Iliad 24 and the Judgement of Paris, C.J. Mackie
Elegy and Epic and the Recognition of Paris: Ovid "Heroides" 16, Elizabeth Forbis Mazurek
Ennian Influence in "Heroides" 16 and 17, Howard Jacobson
Paris/Alexandros in the "Iliad", I. J. F. de Jong
#long post#paris of troy#komiks tag#like. DISTANTLY. its#the iliad#drawing tag#listen i know it's fun to dunk on paris. but im a chronic killjoy. i know its cringe. mea culpa etc#i would love. I WOULD LOVE. to draw a comic and not have the commentary notes be longer than the comic itself#unfortunately i like to read and i cannot stop talking about things that i read. so this will not be changing.#ngl i keep hearing the last line 'my brother says you are a just judge' as 'and brutus says he is an honorable man' and that's smth for sur#god i wish this was shorter but then i remember it could've been longer bc i started drawing this while watching#some excellent korean horror but then i looked at myself in the mirror and said 'no. get your shit together.'#but that show is what sparked this. the themes. god i love shows. a round of applause for tv shows.#in a different world theres a version of me that didn't exercise self restraint and there's 30 screen caps from a horror show here too#it’s all greek to me

something something headcanon Michael wrote a good amount of the Fnaf songs as a way of coping with the horrors™️ so like in his handy dandy notebook, right next to his plans of arson and vivid drawings of nightmares, it reads "I can see you there, warmth and life, why don't you share, it's been many years, stuck here living with out fears-" and it doubles as Michael trying to categorize all the information he's learnt and helping him process all this information and it gives this really funny visual of later on, Gregory asking Glamrock Freddy something from the past of Fazbear Entertainment or his previous family drama and then Freddy just starts humming and muttering "....mmm all stay strong, we live eternally, all is well in mmmmm pure insanity, mmmmm-AH!- here is your answer, Gregory! :333" no because imagine he shows Gregory "Too Far" (by CK9C) and Greg's like "Thats......a lot of yelling." "I was going through a rough time haha." -listens to it further before taking of the headphones- "...You good man?" "I'm really not, but we ball, Gregory."
#fnaf#michael afton#five nights at freddy’s#glammike#glamrock freddy#Do you see the vision chat#Fazbear Entertainment probably published all these songs by finding Michael's notebook in the rubble lol#“Gregory you do not understand theyre using the wrong octave gregory!! its not my artistic vision gregory!!”#screw it im making it a part of silly salvaged lol#william in his little peepaw area finds a copy of the notebook thats up for display in RockRow's museum and he bullies Mike relentlessly lo#“really? thats the best Rhyme scheme you could come up with? PLEASE!”#“When me and Henry worked on the Diner's music at least the lyrics were clever! here in this verse you're just calling me evil!”#“If you're going to be in my shadow please try and keep up; I'm not Peter Pan Michael.”#And then Gregory's like “Yk I thought your music was pretty alright Freddy :D” and then all is right in Freddy's world#he is however fine with CC and Lizzy dunking on him. yk. sibling things#one day Freddy catches Vanessa humming to like....Left Behind or something and he laughs to himself#also shoutout Welcome to Freddy's by Madame Macabre#BANGER SONG FRFR

This is, like, the third or fourth time (if not MORE) that I see a person apologize for talking about touken, showing enjoyment in the ship or needing to give some clarification. I know I'm not the only one who feels like the TG Tumblr space carries a negative atmosphere towards touken and it honestly kills my mood to post on here.
It also saddens me to see people show love for them so hesitantly. Like you're in the wrong for doing so. Like it's stupid. Like it's silly and unreasonable. Like it's almost shameful. Idk! That's how posting on here and see other people talk about them and acting ashamed about liking them makes me feel!
For how much TG tumblr advertises to be a welcoming space, I don't feel welcomed at all and more like just tolerated.
#maybe I should be blocking more freely. maybe thats the mistake im doing#the tg sexywoman tournament wasnt fun because instead of uplifting your fave#it kinda turned into dunking on touka#im not gonna stop posting on tumblr for those few who yk. actually like touken#but im alresdy interacting less here because of that atmosphere#and maybe its gonna be even less#idk man. im annoyed rn KWVFJWJDJ#im just glad i have the touken community on twt#i feel very appreciated there and not like im being delusional for liking the canon ship#im making this post to also see if others relate and im not overreacting#tg#ken kaneki#touka kirishima#touken#tokyo ghoul#yh going to the main tags#vent

The big analysis of Joris Jurgen's horrible-no-good childhood.
TW: discussions of child neglect, and what might constitute as emotional abuse.
Firstly, to address something, I hadn't in the last liveblog: There are plenty of times in the show where one can see Joris saying things that he may not entirely mean...
But it is especially interesting to see him say something like this immediately after breaking down into tears about it just a scene prior.
Hm. Anyway. I'm sure this won't affect their relationship going forward.
I've discussed Kerubim's issues of self-worth, loneliness, and dishonesty, before on this blog, — but you will never believe it, Kerubim isn't the only one who suffers because of his issues.
It's nigh time we discuss seven-year-old Joris, and the terrible, no good, case of emotional repression and lying.
Let's set the stage first.
Joris grew up in a deeply isolated and neglectful, and at times dangerous, environment, in every single way. And the child neglect Kerubim engaged in lessened, but did not stop after Simone arrived.
He did not have any family members besides Kerubim, — for obvious reasons, both of their family members are either dead, or want nothing to do with them, — and he did not have any friends, besides Tatak. The reason he did not have friends is unknown, but there are several factors that may have contributed to that:
The sorry state of their house might have complicated his relationship with other kids and given him and Kerubim a poor reputation among neighbours;
The part of the city they live in might simply not have a lot of families, due to being a — being, perhaps, mostly populated by adventurers and other people in violent professions, as well as the shops that cater to them (which are, in turn, mostly ran by retired adventurers).
And then there's the third thing: Kerubim is his best friend.
Joris did not have a support system in the form of an extended family, — or at the very least, in the form of friends outside the household, — and It doesn't seem like the other adults Kerubim knows were at all involved in Joris's childhood. Besides that, Joris was seemingly homeschooled, — and, considering Kerubim's finances, and his referencing at least one school's existence, there were other options.
For the large part of Joris's life, they only had one another, and it almost seems like Kerubim, with his abandonment issues, and low self-esteem, acted in ways that isolated Joris further.
Due to Ecaflip's mistreatment of him as a child, and his loneliness due to the death of his family when he was a child, — what he wanted the most as a father was to be a best friend to Joris.
(And, much more selfishly, not that he would admit that, — he wanted someone to replace Lou/Indie/Atcham/Bashi/Everyone else who has left him.)
He could remember being a child, and he knew how he would have liked to be treated, — as a peer, obviously. It's important for peers to respect each other equally, and listen to each other's pain, right?
Except, in a way, Kerubim is perpetuating a cycle here.
And children are not peers, best friends, or caretakers. They depend on their parents for their survival.
And Joris knows what will happen to him, if Kerubim is gone. Kerubim himself was an orphan, and has shared more than enough stories about that.
Because of this, thoughts of Kerubim passing away are a usual worry for Joris, no doubt fueled by Kerubim's dramatics, and love for his attention — and it means he'll do everything to make sure Kerubim is happy and healthy.
Even if it means sacrificing his own comfort for his sake. Even if it means putting up with being treated badly.
Joris and Kerubim have what is known as an "enmeshed", or "codependent", parent-child relationship, the characteristics of which are, according to online resources:
Parents expecting children to be their best friends and always confiding in them.
Children receiving praise for maintaining the family’s status quo, and conflict-avoidant behaviours.
The lack of emotional and physical boundaries.
Role reversal, in the form of the child being expected to take care of the parent's mental health. (Despite lacking the maturity to)
Children prioritizing parents needs and feelings over their own.
Childhood overindulgence, in the form of the parent using the child for wish fulfilment.
Another interesting titbit that informs his character, is that, from a very young age, children learn how to respond to their feelings and express them, based on the way adults behave, by mirroring those behaviours, — and Kerubim is anything but honest about his feelings, more often than not, putting on a brave smile.
Joris values his stories more than anything, despite knowing that, often, they may be fake, at least in some parts. To him, words matter more than the truth of the matter, when push comes to shove between them. But also, he doesn't like outright lies, which are just as plentiful between them.
Despite how he may usually act, Joris isn't really the happiest about how their family is. He knows that Kerubim is dishonest and neurotic, and, in a way, it causes dissonance in his mind. He loves him more than anything, and to trust him, — but he knows that to trust Kerubim is to be disappointed.
When something bad happens? It's a guarantee, that instead of being comforted, it will be his job to pretend to be comforted, so that Kerubim doesn't completely fall apart. So that he can still be taken care of, — and every child wants to be taken care of.
Yet another thing he can't really trust Kerubim with.
Just like Kerubim, he is growing up to be a good liar. And someone very much afraid of being abandoned.
But everyone has their limit, fear of abandonment or not. No matter how much you repress these feelings, they'll come bubbling to the surface eventually.
...An interesting tidbit about children raised in enmeshed relationships, is that, at times, as adults, they find it difficult to trust others, open up to people, or have close friends in general. Due to guilt of those people on the outside not being their family, and due to associating close relationships with pain, responsibility, and giving up a part of themselves.
They grow up to be aloof, flighty, and cold.
Another interesting tidbit is that, sometimes, they find themselves unable to leave at all.

#p4#p4g#persona 4#persona 4 golden#hanamura yosuke#yosuke hanamura#ok i love seeing the IT gang up on him its my soft spot#but also this is the kind of scene i was talking about prev#about how dunking on your friends is itself intended to be a demonstration of your closeness#yosuke's trying to make teddie feel better about himself but then he ends off his remarks with a joke#as he tends to do to diffuse tension! by being light hearted and playful#im not sure if naoto was intentionally playing into the joke here considering how new into the team they were but rise definitely was#i think a lot of Yosuke's jokes tends to take on the tsukkomi-and-boke kind of routine.#although yosuke frequently plays the tsukkomi/straight man by calling out his friends' weird logic during comedic scenes#in this scene i think rise (and naoto)'s quick reaction is very similar a tsukkomi follow up#so its not just a matter of ribbing on yosuke but also them knowing his humour well enough to follow up#and that makes me so happy because the more tragic more isolatory thing. would be for him to he ignored entirely.#he's good with his queue

Every time I see a smash or pass poll on human characters I'm jumpscared like 🤨🤢
Who wants humans in the robot fucking paradise 🧐🤣
Sentinel Prime, that you?
Listen man, some of us like both. Sometimes the human designs are even weirder than the robots. Some of us like to fantasize extensively about the humans and the robots kissing each other and thinking about the humans through the eyes of an alien that doesn't really understand everything that's happening there but wants to love their person regardless makes the human in question a lot sexier.
The pleasures of the flesh are not superior to the pleasures of the metal, nor the other way around. We're all just trying to fuck bizarre little contraptions animated by electricity, some of them are wetter than others, and all of them are freaks to someone else.
#i get that people are expecting robots on the robotfucking blog but man. i was pretty open in the rules that we do humans here too#and it feels like every time i DO post one i get people dissing others for still wanting to fuck humans#like it negates that we want to fuck the robots too#i dunno man its just kinda frustrating. it feels like the same vibe as people dunking on bisexuals for being straight passing or whatever#but the mechanophilia rebrand#im also mad autistic so i could be taking this wayyyy too seriously and getting worked up over a joke. it is hard for me to tell.#not polls
