Person A has just recovered from a cold and has been eagerly waiting to see Person B again.
As theyâre walking around out doors, the skies open up and icy rain pours down on them. Person A shrugs off their jacket and tosses it over Person Bâs head, protecting them from the rain.
âWhat are you doing, youâre going to get sick again!â Person B exclaims.
âCome on now,â Person A says dismissively. âDonât you know rain making you sick is just a myth?â
Person A is met with an unfortunate awakening the next day as their throat begins to ache.
âNot again.â
#enjoy this little scenario based off my current real world experience#I am person A#and my partner is person B#at least irl#truthfully I��ve seen them a few times since recovering from my cold about two weeks ago but this was our first big date#we were waiting outside of a rollerskating rink when it started to rain#the line to get indoors was long so I put my jacket over their head and that was our actual dialogue#of course there was more to it#but we simply things here#my throat started to hurt a few hours ago so I really hope that Iâm not getting sick again already#Iâm hoping itâs just smoke thatâs irritating my throat because my place of work did catch on fire today#snz kink#snzblr#snz blog#snz fet#snz fucker#snz#snzfucker#sneeze kink#snzario#snz scenario#sneeze scenario#sneeze#sneezing#cold sneezes#snz experience

On autonomy, and what it means to be Obliged to Help.
Bonus:
#a homestuck walks into an antechamber and asks#hey is anybody going to make this dynamic wholly deterministic and thus dubiously consensual by its very nature#ANYWAY bigger ramble below. scroll down like usual#isat spoilers#isat#isat fanart#isat siffrin#isat loop#sifloop#THATS RIGHT WE'RE STILL SHIP TAGGING IT BABYYYY#in stars and time#in stars and time fanart#lucabyteart#RAMBLE START: anyway i think loop is wrong here. they have it backwards. as-- in my opinion--#the main reason they could be called back into existence postcanon is because *their* wish for help is still not complete#they still need help. siffrin still needs help. neither of them will ever stop needing help.#they will thus uphold the wish until the end of siffrin's natural lifespan.#that said. what does it mean that loop can be so wholly forced to abide by siffrin's wants?#(assuming the dagger cutscene posession is them being forced to uphold the 'help siffrin' wish via harsh universe logic)#[as opposed to something capricious and cruel the change god did. which feels out of character for the change god to me?]#much like how the island wish and duplicate objects are neutered by simply sliding off people's brains...#is loop subtly ushered toward their wish? obviously it's not a full override (see: the bossfight). but is there any interference?#and if so. so what? does it matter? if they don't notice? is it even real if they don't notice?#and even if they do notice. the universe leads we follow. how much do either of them value their free will in a belief system like that?#the whole game is dedicated to siffrin habitually NOT excersizing his free will. doing things the same Every Time.#Loop ESPECIALLY does this. predetermined predetermined predetermined even in the FACE OF CHANGE. REFUSING. ANY CHOICE.#Maybe they'd even be comforted by having a universe-ordained purpose even if it is subservient. even if its to Him.#(though. i can't see siffrin enjoying the idea that someone is subservient TO them... then all their suffering is his fault...)#loop got into this mess via WANTING too much. no more free will. can't be trusted with it. take it away from them.#but yeah. gets my greasy detective pony hands all over this. and everyone please do remember i like to make characters Outright Wrong A Lot

if you ask me. being a good storyteller and love are inherently entwined. you cannot tell a good story without loving the people in it and loving those you tell it to. because to tell a good story is to understand it and its impact. to love is to understand how something moves through others and how to deliver it the way it would be best received. and how to breath life into something that did not exist before. storytelling is an act of creation sure but i do believe in all creation, there is love too. that there must be
#this is also sort of how i see/think about god#that if god isnt real. well then thats fine#god is the meaning we give to life. because as human beings we give things meaning. simply because we are humans and thats what we've alway#done. that could be god to me#but the other thing that could be 'god' is the idea that everything here is made with intention#not with the intent to control the outcome of the universe or the people within it but#with the intention to make something. and i do think that creation intention and love are inherently intertwined#txt#scratchpost

Love that Oppenheimer is a deeply disturbing horror movie about a man forced to accept that he is, in a person, the representative manifestation of mankindâs evil in committing one of the greatest horrors of human history - LITERALLY acting as the modern Prometheus, tormented by his sins for the remainder of time. Knowing that he will never be pitied and his actions will forever be utterly unforgivable because the blood of genocide and the potential of total human annihilation will eternally drip from his hands.
But also the simultaneous indictment by the film that to blame a single person for the Manhattan Project is to refuse to accept your own capacity for great evil if the ends ever seem to justify the means, and the culpability of every member of a species that lets itself create something so unspeakably terrible.
Hate that twitterâs take on such a nuanced and brilliantly handled examination of those issues is âmovie bad because protagonist not evil enough.â
#whatâs that quote about the problem with othering the enemy in media is that we can no longer see our own reflection in their eyes#oppenheimerâs motivations WERE sympathetic thatâs the POINT#we SHOULD feel uncomfortable with our sympathy for him - the film goes out of its way to make us feel uncomfortable about it#we should be uncomfortable with the fact that we might have made the same decisions as him in his place#yes heâs evil but his evilness represents the evil that we might all accept in ourselves#twitter simply cannot handle nuanced takes on things ig (tumblr does though - the posts on here have been surprisingly excellent)#oppenheimer#(tldr - look if you walk out of Oppenheimer thinking it somehow celebrates the man then you may need to retake 9th grade Literature srry)#films

@scimagic Uhhh made this because I just think theyâre dynamic is neat. Also completely agree with the Puzzle headcanon super fun silly and very on point. As we speak he is clinging for his dear life :))
I really enjoy seeing the illustrated storyline you have unfolding between the two and figured it would be nice to see this motorcycle sequence in motion. So tadaa here it is! In animated form! Now your obligated to make a full length written novel in-depth about their relationship /j
Sincerely though thanks for the creative inspiration and keep on being a swagger artist đâ¨
#Whoops seems my hand slippedâsilly me these arenât my characters! Hereâs your lovelies back sorry for abducting them momentarily :))#tagging people is scary Iâm just going to hide under a rock after this gets posted jksjsksp#my brain goes âteehee my genius hidden evil scheme no one saw comingâyess I shall gift lovely artists fanart when they least expect itâ >:3#and then once itâs actally time to post my brain goes crisis mode and implodes#like why am I drawing attention to myself huh? why canât I scutter off as a masked anonymous figure into the night#oh well at least we made a dope ass motorcycle animation hell yea. Hopefully you like it <3#honestly in retrospect kinda surprises me that Puzzles doesnât have a helmetâŚpretty sure his screen is durable but not THAT durable#one oopsie woopsie and that thing will get cracked again <<#but then again where are you ever going to find a rectangle screen shaped helmet to fit his head jksjsksp#thereâs simply no winning#oh uh also incase anyone wishes to know the logistics of making thisâŚ.didnât take too long just three days! Pretty speedy :3#ok now this is the part where I twiddle my hands and await results lol#âŚ..also just occurred to me the motorcycle model shouldâve been a Harley or Suzuki Iâm just dumb and forgor#even tho it was specified in the tags of the initial post I referenced heavily#like I was staring at the art for reference + online material but that useful tidbit of tag information flew over my head :P#sorry all you get is the generic motorcycle modelâŚ.mission failed better luck next time *dies*#hplonesome art#not my characters#gift for someone else#do I even need to specify that in tags NO CLUE IâM PARANOID/j

imma be so real with you I did NOT care for all the cutesy ways they presented Vi and Cait's disbalanced social status in arc 3
#first off the parallel of cait arriving to let vi out of prison. but this time they ~have sex~. IN THE CELL THAT WAS UNJUSTLY HOLDING JINX#bitch why are you invoking THAT REALLY FUCKED UP SCENE right before such a milestone romance scene??? it's not cute??? JINX WAS JUST HERE#then the one thing cait tries to apologize for is MADDIE. GIRL. NO ONE CARES ABOUT MADDIE. WE CARE ABOUT HOW YOU KEPT DEMEANING#AND TORTURING ZAUNITES INCLUDING VI. but that isn't addressed bc vi needs to give her head. speaking of vi#VI WHY ARE YOU GIGGLING LIKE A SCHOOLGIRL YOU ARE IN A PRISON CELL. REMEMBER HOW YOU WASTED 7 YEARS OF YOUR LIFE IN ONE#then the way jinx believes vi should be with cait as an alternative to staying with her simply because she is too fucked up while cait make#vi happy. i am sorry but show me where did jinx see cait makes vi happy. then the show just rolls with that and says ''yeah vi should be#forced to leave jinx behind and choose piltover. this is a happy ending for everyone.''#and finally ''i'm the dirt under your fingernails'' WHAT A DEPRESSING FUCKING FINAL NOTE TO LEAVE YOUR RELATIONSHIP ON.#a zaunite is literal DIRT under a ruling class piltie's fingernails. and it's cute and means they are gonna be together forever. HELLO????#i don't know WHAT that thing is but that thing is NOT MY OTP#arcane liveblog#arcane spoilers#it's like they were planning to write a fucked up tragic romance story. like they were PLANNING to make cait the bad guy. IT IS CRAZY#they weren't let's be clear. but s1 was so deep and yielded to analysis so well. meanwhile if you look any deeper than shallow into s2 you#get interpretations like THIS#''finally a lesbian couple with a happy ending'' YEAH IF YOU IGNORE CLASS. IF YOU IGNORE CLASS BASED OPPRESSION. CMON GUYS WE DESERVE BETTE

Three hundred and fifty-six days Since last we saw Harry on stage, But tonight a duet! For Ms. Nicksâ Hyde Park set, And a Songbird whoâs now flown away.
#larry#harry#harry styles#stevie nicks#bst hyde park#the sun tipped us off that harry would join stevie nicks on stage during her bst hyde park set in london tonight#the fandom was a frenzy waiting to see if it would actually happen#things were pretty well confirmed when the usual suspects started to appear#spotted on the vip platform: rob stringer; kid harpoon and wife jenny; chloe burcham and gemma; tommy bruce#shit got real when we got a photo of harry side stage#jeff was seen with him#(worth noting here that irving managed fleetwood mac at some point)#there were reports that lloyd was there and that pham was taking photos on stage#the presence of the harry parliament made it feel HS4-y#but harry seems to have been there simply to support stevie for an emotional performance#it was christine mcvie's birthday#she passed away in 2022#harry paid tribute to her with a custom ss daley hand-embroidered songbird pin on his ss daley suit#the embroidery is green and blue#the songbird pattern is inspired by an 1800s lithograph and an accompanying scarf shows four different birds#and while it may not be explicitly about larry ...#i can envision harry's smirk when asked which of the four birds he wanted stitched on the jacket#they sang stop draggin' my heart around and landslide#there was also a super cute moment when harry slipped a 'it's coming home' into the mic#not unlike his husband recently#and harry is rocking the beginnings of a skullet mullet#which i'd like to see him fully commit to#limerick-hs#july 12#2024

hey some very smart people (my babes @captainrayzizuniverse and @goldcrumble) have cracked a 28 Clothing pattern check this out: Drop 1 and Drop 2 came out August and November last year and were both Collection 01 (labeled on the clothing tags); Drop 3 (this July) is Collection 02...
...which suggests a possible pattern of one collection consisting of two drops close together late in the year per year, which feels consistent with teasing items from the next drop in the promo for this recent one; so we would see Drop 4- the second half of Collection 02- in October or November, and then another long wait until the second half of next year for more?
#doing SCIENCE here the if thens are iffing and thenning!!#submitting for peer review lol#taking louie mathing to the word problem area#28op#28 clothing#also this makes sense with why you could still buy drop 1 items along with drop 2 until just now#collection one all together#now collection 2 only#so we could expect drop 3 stuff thats left to stay up after drop 4 for a while#the first two were so close together!!!! its no wonder we were confused by the long wait after#literally why are they so allergic to just telling us things there's NO REASON not to simply share this infođ#I mean I enjoy a puzzle I guess but COME ON WHY

Law thought he'd need to change the world to honor Cora's sacrifice
But he was already living Cora's legacy: Simply by being with the people he loves, the family he created for himself in the wake of Cora setting him free
You'd almost expect Law to wander alone for years after Cora's death. And in a different story? I think that's likely what would've happened so the MC could finally show him what love means
But Law met Bepo and the others within a few days of Cora's death
And so Law fulfilled Cora's dying wish â continued to fulfill that wish everyday after that, even â without ever realizing it. There is something so devastatingly beautiful about that
#It's the intrinsic value in all of us#the relationships we create#and how those things truly ARE enough when viewed through the lens of unconditional love#/CLENCHES FIST AND CRIES#To understand what the heart pirates represent; I think you really need to read between the lines#People get hung up on power-scaling but that stuff is honestly SO irrelevant here??#in the same way whether Law would change the world was irrelevant to Cora.#It's simply about how much Law loves them#and how much they adore him in turn đĽš#trafalgar law#hearts pirates#bepo#corazon#donquixote rocinante#one piece#my meta#text post

#simply could not get this footage and that quote out of my head yesterday#the absolute trust and faith they have in one another! doing that on 4th and 6!!!#how they're both so happy to talk about it in interviews and brag about it to the world!#not to mention showing it off every chance they can on the field!#(and like i've always been struck by how gently ja'marr tells joe to pass to him here)#(like it's such a high stakes frustrating situation but they're so calm with each other)#(because they KNOW they can rely on each other when things get tough)#ANYWAY.#nothing else happened after this drive we actually won the game and the super bowl everyone just forgot#(never over it. refs were the mvp.)#joe burrow#ja'marr chase

the day he died, john who was both a father and a god to the boy he'd raised in his image, told dean he might have to kill the brother he'd raised as his own son, who he'd protected his whole life, whose health and wellbeing he'd placed above his own since he was barely old enough to reach the kitchen counters.
and for the next fifteen years dean went to such extremes to avoid ever having to see sam die at his own hand or someone else's that he sold his own soul and helped an angel trick sam into saying yes to possession and killed death itself.
and then.
and then.
dean faced god.
and he told god, "the whole cain-and-abel thing. us dead. whatever. i'll kill sam. sam will kill me. we'll kill each other. okay? you pick. but, first, you got to put everything back the way it was. the people, the birds. cas. you've gotta bring him back."
and honestly i still feel very calm and normal about that after thinking about it for the past three and a half years
#is this my most coherent post?#look no it isn't#and i could agonize about phrasing things better and leave it in my drafts where it's already been gathering dust for so long#that i needed to add two and a half years to the final line#or i could simply release it into the wild#so here we are#on some level i am always deanposting#the deancas of it all#fandom: supernatural

I love spuffy as much as the next guy but ohhh my gawddd I really kinda wish it had been buffy wil and xand to finish the fight. they started it together, and while they've always had outside help, I just think it would've been so good if each of them had their own big important parts to play since this was the last we get to see of them
#ik there's comics but I have no intentions of reading those so. this is the last I get to see of them all fighting the big fight together!!!#I suppose buffy was the one leading everyone into battle... but that doesn't feel like much#but seriously why wasn't xander given anything special to do </3#he could simply be motivation if nothing else. we know the girls like him he could help give them strength when they feel like it's hopeles#and especially buffy. he is determination!! I have talked about this before!! let that show when it counts!!#willow did her part so good for her. it was beautiful and I love her#the only thing that would've been even better is if releasing all that slayerness had given buffy (& faith) a boost. to tie wil to them mor#...I cannot think off the top of my head what buffy could've done more. she shared her power with others by handing off the scythe.#she gave them strength in leading them I guess. open to ideas here if anyone wants to chime in with something#they're the heart the spirit the power grrrrr they are connected and (should) need one another to continue on#and okay ik buff and xand and willow are all in totally separate places but I want them CONNECTED together are we getting the picture here#I actually kinda like them being separate now that I've thought about it. each part of the whole running a different section so they're all#spread out and able to take care of everything. but I want moreee for them#y'all have better have fuckin meant it when you guys said y'all wanted to hear about my buffy/willow/xander thoughts#buffy x willow x xander#buffy summers#willow rosenberg#xander harris#btvs#buffy the vampire slayer
