Kinda started rereading Dressrosa and... Although I always chalked up the similarities between Crocodile's plan to take over Alabasta and how Doflamingo took over Dressrosa as nothing but Oda reusing similar plot elements but in a slightly different way (just to show us what could've become of Alabasta had Croc gotten away with his schemes, what Luffy helped prevent from happening to begin with)...
Robin's reaction to hearing the story of Dressrosa and HOW Doflamingo took over the country, that simple little "...!!", actually does kind of speak volumes
Like if you wanted canonical evidence to Crocodile having been "inspired" by Doflamingo, then yeah, Robin would be The Person who would pick up on that, she'd be the person who'd be like "hey, that story sounds awfully familiar to what Crocodile did", since he was her boss
Do want to note that, timeline-wise, Doflamingo only took over Dressrosa 10 years ago, where as Crocodile had been Scheming and establishing his position as the Hero of Alabasta for 16 years. Like Croc's intent to obtain Pluton and create his military nation utopia absolutely pre-dates Doffy's takeover, so that wasn't and can't have been inspired by Doflamingo at all. It's more just the plan and method Crocodile ended up going with (framing the king (through a bloodbath) and putting the country in a position without a ruler where he could just yoink it for himself with ease) where the similarity becomes more obvious. But it is also kind of where it ends. Doflamingo wanted Dressrosa because he felt like he was entitled to the island (as his family had been its original rulers and he was a Tenryuubito), and was using the island for his own gains (Smile manufacturing etc, for his dealings with Kaidou), all while having a great distain and hatred of the world and how he had been "wronged" (=Tenryuubito rights revoked). Meanwhile... yeah, Crocodile wanted to create a "utopia", only targetting Alabasta because he believed Pluton was there and because Pluton would be needed for his ideal military nation. That minor difference and Crocodile's clear and great distain and hatred of Doflamingo combined...
Yeah, I dunno, this is just interesting to me. God I need Robin and Crocodile to have a lil reunion chat
#Moon posting#OP Meta#Coming to learn that the most import panels in One Piece are the ones where a character has a thought bubble going ''...''#Tabled at a convention on Saturday and I had nothing else to do while waiting for my train/on the train lmao#I've only read through Dressrosa twice so I have been craving to reread it for a while now (but I had been saving it up for con trips)#Dressrosa is so fucking good. Like I'll be first to admit I did not enjoy it when it was first unfolding in the early 2010s#But rereading it... It's good man. It's good#Dressrosa gets to much shit it doesn't deserve#Sidenote but yes people are quick to point out how Doffy's crew has DFs that're just more powerful versions of what Baroque Works had#I do not think Croc was recruiting people based on their Devil Fruits like that though. Like that I think really is just Oda reusing ideas#'Cause literally the only people in Baroque Works who Crocodile actually and specifically *needed* to do his thing were Robin (Poneglyph)#And Bon-chan to impersonate Cobra (and thinking about it Galdino+Marianne could've been like a Back Up)#(Like had something happened to Bon-chan then 3 Pair could've created a wax replica of Cobra to frame him for the port attack)#All the other tasks? Could've been done by literally anyone (as long as they were competent enough)#(Maybe Miss Merry Christmas was required for Cobra's kidnapping though considdering how fast she could haul ass etc)

I'm watching a special called Alien Xmas on Netflix, and it is blatantly someone's Invader Zim fanfic with the serial numbers filed off.
#Alien from a punnily-named villain species is looked down on for his small size? Check.#Leader is noticeably taller than all her underlings? Check.#Robot sidekick? Check.#Evil plan that's JUST REALISTIC ENOUGH to still count as sci-fi? Check.#It's an IZ fic where GIR is competent and Zim gets a redemption arc.#Alien Xmas#Christmas#Invader Zim#Netflix

Didn't felt like mentioning it immediately but shoutout to my sick and twisted brain for getting so triggered by an unexpected Christmas parade that I ended up havin the absolute worst panic attack of my entire life (potentially the only real one? I've had a couple other episodes I thought of as panic attacks but they were not even close to that so who knows) to the point where I spent the very last day of my 30th year on this earth in the ER, good times, good times 😊
#that was 10 days ago and i honestly was fine immediately after it ended so don't worry for me <3#but yeah this shit was crazy holy hell#like i knew intellectually that 'feeling like you're dying' is a symptom of a panic attack but *actually* feeling it is another thing...#and even at the worst i was like 'ok i'm clearly having a panic attack it's not nice but it's gonna be ok'#but there was a piece of my brain that was like 'ok but what if your mom or grandma had told themselves that...'#'when they were having heart attack? They would have died and so will you 😊'#and i was like shit can't argue with that better get my ass to the hospital before i die#spoiler alert: i didn't died#ironically enough the revolting state of our healthcare system is lowkey what helped me calmed the fuck down#because i was tiny but i do remember when my mom had her heart attack and they sure as hell didn't let her wait for 7h+#so when i realized that this is what was gonna happen after i spent a brief moment with a nurse i was just like...oh i'm fine actually lol#and then i had to go take the bus in my fake crocs that i usually never wear outside of the house smh#interestingly enough my phobia of hospital seems to have competely disappear! which makes me believe that it was more a trauma response#than an actual phobia#not that the name changes that much but still interesting development#also no i'm not wearing a mask because nobody gave me one#that's actually one of the thing that made me leave lmao#oh and btw the christmas parade is true but also a bit more complex than that#basically i had a full sleepless night and i was mad so i decided to go buy myself some weed#turned out that there was a huge christmas parade 5 minutes away from the weed store so i hade to find another way#and then i got lost on the way back#and saw no less than 3 big fights between different homeless people#including one man randomly kicking another man's dog (which kinda really messed with me tbh)#and then i smoked a big joint (first one in like 10 days) with 0 sleep and zero food in my body#and then i took the bus#and then the bus driver yelled at an elderly man for not waiting at the right place#and then i took a sip of water and for some truly strange reason my brain decided that the water had gone in my lungs#and that i was actively drowning#and the rational part of me was like...girl that's not what drowning feels like what are you even talking about??#and then my brain went 'well if we're not drowning than we're having a heart attack'

A Ghost Story for Christmas: Woman of Stone (BBC, 2024)
"It is their world, my poor lamb. Theirs to sully and despoil."
"Whose?"
"They're all alike, all of them. Them two knights, all them centuries ago. Your husband. Mine. Whether hewn from flesh or stone... they are all as one."
#a ghost story for christmas#woman of stone#horror tv#single play#new tv#2024#e. nesbit#mark gatiss#celia imrie#monica dolan#éanna hardwicke#phoebe horn#mawaan rizwan#ryan ellsworth#ashley jarvis#alberto bona#an improvement on Gatiss' offering from last year (time has only made me think worse of his Lot no.249 adaptation‚ im afraid)#but what this gains in competence (it's a p well told‚ well put together little thing) it loses in atmosphere: this was fine but it never#really began to approach creepy or spooky. and Gatiss can do that‚ if he tries: his Tractate Middoth and Martin's Close adaptations were#both very fine bits of modern telly horror. and this should have been; I'm very fond of Nesbit‚ a fiery socialist and writer of short#horror fiction but better remembered for her children's literature. Gatiss gives this tale a welcome nudge into more overt (but still#relatively mild) feminist territory‚ and the able cast are all very good (Dolan in particular shines during her scenes relating the myth at#the centre of the story). but this doesn't do its primary job of chilling or thrilling. it's Fine; it should be more than that#ho hum. for all my grousing im still very happy that we even have the ghost story for christmas strand back#its continued existence is far from assured and every year it goes on is a small triumph

Today feels like one of those days where I should be allowed to bite someone
#welcome to the shitshow#rant:#my job scheduled me 14 hours the week before Christmas#but I don’t know how the fuck they’ll function cause apparently I’m#the only one competent enough to do half of the fucking work#there could literally be 10 people on their phones but if I’m not actively doing something I am given a task#they didn’t even really want to let me go on my extremely delayed 15#and it is taking all my willpower to not say fuck it and leave early#if anyone says anything to me I might kick them in the shins

does anyone else's mom think they are "mean" for having boundaries? or is that just my mom?
#me: maybe there is a reason none of his 4 daughters speak to our cousin anymore. should we really invite him over to christmas?#my mom: i'm not ignoring red flags. i just don't feel the need to be so mean and not invite him over anyway!#me: okay.#she is so completely attracted to weak and failed men#the more they use her the more she wants to be around them#it's like... have you not noticed that this man only calls when he needs money or rides or a free caretaker???#she will literally ALWAYS find the money to take care of men like this but will happily screw me and my credit score over if she doesn't#feel like paying a bill that month#literally my score is a 542 right now and i have mommy dearest to thank for that along with my own stupidity in trusting her not to be#an idiot when it comes to money but she will never change on that front#lol but she found a way to give thousands to my dad this year#it's honestly like she HATES any woman who is competent and not serving men#it's like she thinks it's her duty to harm herself financially to care for men
