#but its so WEIRD

[etoilesombre]

Anybody ever think about how fucking weird this exchange is?

Flint: Oh, matter of ship business. I've noticed the berths for the vanguard are less than ideal. I'd like to have them set in here. Give the men a little more space to breathe. Dufresne: You want the vanguard to quarter in the captain's cabin? Flint: I'm not a tyrant, Mr. Dufresne. The ship belongs to all of us. This seems a way to ensure that we all benefit from it equally. Dufresne: It also seems a way to ensure that the next time someone raises a pistol towards you, well, the vanguard has a rooting interest.

ok so FIRST this does not make sense just on the face of it. Half their crew is dead, and they just moved to a MUCH bigger ship. There are other cabins around you know. But Black Sails doesn't care about things like that, it's fine, moving right along.

This man was JUST almost deposed as captain. When he was reinstated barely more than half of the crew voted for him. Sleeping in a room with a bunch of people who wanted to hang you three days ago seems... like a poor choice. Is he completely 100% sure nobody on the vanguard would have opposed him? Then why would he need to win their favor? Is he just not going to sleep? Does he think he's so intimidating no one would even try?? Because you're setting up the ideal situation for letting somebody get away with it. I get that they basically just needed a logistical excuse to have those last couple lines spoken, but I've been doing confused dog head tilt about this for like two years.

I love the judgment day, don't get me wrong

But i really hope rhea finds others in her own category to align to

She ends up not really interacting with jds story lines and only dom interacts with her

They were hinting at adding someone to the team and i love Andrade, he's really really good, but i hoped so hard itd be a woman...

being nearodivergant is so weird because one day you'll click on a youtube video by some guy named mr beat and now you're being sucked back into a hyperfixation on us presidents you thought ended ages ago even though you're british and now that's somehow lead to you discovering a movie and book series about abe lincoln (yes, that abe lincoln) being a fucking vampire hunter and now you have to live with that because now you know wayyy too much about these random dudes

[cheolism]

someone shouted at fuma that he was "sexy sexy" and mans just fucking blushed and got bashful jasdfkjl;sd THIS MAN SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS MUCH SWAY OVER MY HEART

friend: so like, every girl had a One Direction phase...

ik dreams are just ur mind processing ur days thoughts but ive had multiple recurring dreams about a dead friend and like... whats up w that.

ok one more thing abt pmmm discourse but its so wild to see ppl claim its torture porn of girls and to “just watch rgu” when from what ive seen, rgu is WAY darker and more brutal than pmmm in terms of subject matter and the protags of that show are the same age as the madoka girls

and for legal reasons, no im not saying rgu is torture porn thats bad

Christmas as a cultural icon is starting to get really dystopian in a climate sense, december has historically been a time of year in which there would be snow in a significant portion of europe and north america, and the fact that its not even icy this time of year and all the christmas songs and decorations reference a time of year that will likely never exist in the same way again in my life time is so strange.

...weird amount of dunmeshi fans have been saying being a caretaker in a relationship is the worst thing ever..marcille must want to killl everyone soo bad because doing things for people suuuucks sooo muchh

communication is key 💪

[rockpaperimpala]

With The Boy and the Heron, Miyazaki really said: I accept that my legacy is out of my control, that my children may not be my successors, that this tremendous monument I've built with a lifetime of toil, this fiery blessing that simply fell out of the sky, may not continue without me, In fact, it may crumble to dust, I accept it because my children and their children are alive and well, in this imperfect world, and thats enough. Yes, I accept that this is the end, but God damn, I'll go out with a bang.

neocities guide - why you should build your own html website

what is neocities?

neocities is a free hosting website that lets you build your own html website from scratch, with total creative control. in their own words: "we are tired of living in an online world where people are isolated from each other on boring, generic social networks that don't let us truly express ourselves. it's time we took back our personalities from these sterilized, lifeless, monetized, data mined, monitored addiction machines and let our creativity flourish again."

why should I make my own website?

web3 has been overtaken by capitalism & conformity. websites that once were meant to be fun online social spaces now exist solely to steal your data and sell you things. it sucks!! building a personal site is a great way to express yourself and take control of your online experience.
