again i say to you

if this man would just let the percy series mature and dig deeper into the emotional arcs he presents in chalice and wrath instead of hopping from one kooky adventure to the next and undermining any story depth with fart and piss jokes and blatant flagging to the disney+ audience, we could have had a very good set of stories on our hands

but NO

percy's rage issues, grief, trauma, and just the general angst of being an older teenager on the cusp of a huge life change are all there and every time the story touches them, it's like RR gets electrocuted and told to get back to Conflict Free Therapy Speak zone before things get too messy

additionally, the third act upping the stakes to Oh Shit We're Gonna Die doesn't work if we already know 1) everyone lives and 2) PERCY GETS INTO COLLEGE at the end of this. the whole point of the series has already been decided!! there are no stakes with your main plot or any of the bullshit mini quests! the opportunity to go for a deep dive character book is there and waiting and ready

but NOOOOOOOOO

gotta make sure all of our main characters have been peed on instead, it's fine

So there's this post going around about how the OP was almost recruited by some Nazis at a Pro-Palestine protest, and they were so shocked that there were Nazis there marching with them. I don't want to bash the OP (that's why I'm not linking or responding on that post) because I really do think they mean well. Still I can't help but think, "Where have you been?", I've been seeing Nazi shit from these protest for a while now. Does no one remember the protest in Australia back in October, where a bunch of people starting chanting "Gas the Jews!"? Nevermind how any discussions on Judaism or Jewish people inevitably ends with a lot of people spamming the tags or comments with "Free Palestine" even if the discussions had nothing to do with Israel or Palestine. I'm not even Jewish and I've been seeing Nazis co-opting the movement for years, and I've been seeing Jewish people calling them out on it for years. Also what do y'all think white supremacists and Nazis look like? Do you think they're all wearing SS uniforms or have swastikas tattooed on their foreheads? Or do you imagine that they're all white trash trailer park losers? Did we all forget Richard Spencer? You can't believe that you can spot these people by looks alone, you have to know the dogwhistles they use otherwise you wind up parroting back their rhetoric without a second thought. The movement deserves better than to have Nazis take over the discussions, but until other protestors shut that shit down I don't see it changing anytime soon.

If I knew a single thing about Irish Americans I would connect the dots between rich bitch Patrick Zweig's first name + the big irish head on Josh O'Connor + the I TOLD YA tshirt being a reference to the JFK campaign. But i do not, so i'm just contemplating them.

Avatar: the Final Confict - Chapter 5

Katara was awake surprisingly early. Well, awake was a bit of an overstatement. Zuko paused in the doorway of the library and shook his head. Katara was sitting at the table with her head down on an open scroll and staring at a pot of tea at the other end of the table. She glanced up when Zuko arrived and reached an arm towards the tea pot.

“Help,” she whined pathetically. “I can’t reach it.”  Zuko shook his head, but went to the table and pushed the pot within Katara’s reach.

“Why are you up if you’re so tired?” he asked, sitting across from her. Katara shrugged half-heartedly and sat up so she could pour the tea into a cup.

“I couldn’t sleep, believe it or not,” she said taking a sip of tea. Glancing out of the window at the grey dawn she asked him, “What are you doing up so early?”all the world, not just a  akku dazedly. of a target than most of the ambassadors and  Zuko’s mouth twisted ruefully into something that wasn’t quite a smile.

“Couldn’t sleep either,” he said. He had spent the better part of the early morning hours fuming in his room. When that had gotten boring, he decided to fume in the library, thinking that no one would be up yet.

“I was having raging panic attacks and questioning if I’m doing the right thing by taking the job as ambassador,” Katara told him, sitting up so she could look him in the eye. “Why couldn’t you sleep?” Zuko met her pointed gaze stubbornly.

“Too much cake,” he answered. “Sugar rush.”

“Now that would be something to see!” Katara laughed.  She clearly didn’t believe him, but she didn’t press- most likely, Zuko thought, because she was too tired. She put her head back down on the table, still chuckling a bit. Zuko felt relief flood him. Katara was the last person he wanted to talk to about his romance troubles with. He frowned and studied his friend. Katara was very pretty, Zuko admitted to himself.  Aang wasn’t the only man Zuko had seen take notice of the seventeen year old water master. Even when he was travelling with the Gaang before the final battle with Ozai, he was occasionally wary of the trouble a pretty young girl like her could get into in some of the rougher areas they went through- though, Katara was nothing if not formidable. As were all the women in the Gaang. She was also smart and a good leader- after all, Iroh would never have appointed her as ambassador if he didn’t have confidence in her abilities. Zuko was sure she would make some lucky man an amazing wife someday.  Even so, he had never seriously considered her romantically. Not even after their never mentioned kiss.

That’s not to say that it didn’t cause him endless months of confusion after the fact. Even after he reunited with Mai, he replayed the kiss in his mind a thousand times trying to figure out what- if anything- it meant.  For the few days after Katara studiously avoided him, and Zuko in a bout of cowardice didn’t bring it up either. Their friendship went on as it had and they still talked about almost everything- except the kiss...and Mai. Zuko’s frown deepened. Why was Mai so convinced that his relationship with Katara was more than friendship? The kiss couldn’t have been all. Could it? Zuko sighed in frustration and ran his hand over his face.

Do NOT go anywhere near me if you defend HAMAS.

I do not support exremist terrorist groups that rape and murder innocent civilians. That is fucked up and inexcusable. Isreal being a colonist state that terrorizes Palestinians does not justify Hamas's terror. If you defend HAMAS, an antisemitic extremist terrorist group funded by actual Nazis, I will instantly block you.

Ahhhhhh I rolled high enough on my diplomacy check to convince the kobold leader to take off the creepy crown that was making him do evil stuff. (he had to make a save to resist the effect and he passed) Peaceful Resolution works. (my attempts to shove the crown off didn't work )

The Past of Oda Sakunosuke (completely, my own assumptions. Not canon.)

I've pieced together the information available and filled in the gaps with pure assumptions.

Now, it was revealed that he used to be an assassin as a child who did contractual work. I'll assume that he did work for anyone and everyone that paid him.

I'll also assume that he had started to work for the Port Mafia because they bought him on their side with money, before he met Natsume.

Or, that after he met Natsume, he couldn't bring himself to kill anyone. But with his past, only a few, criminal organisations accepted him to work with them. He chose the Port Mafia since he could just work as a low-rank errand boy instead of someone who uses violence, there.

After that, he lived like a normal person and worked on the novel whenever he got time. It was revealed that he picked up the orphans during the Dragon Head's Conflict. After that, or before that, he met Dazai. And also Ango, eventually. He visited the orphans, helped with their expenses. All of that Oda stuff, yknow.

Then, Ango disappeared, Mori assigned him to look for Ango. He got involved with Mimic, saved Akutagawa's stubborn ass. The orphans died, he got rid of mimic. He killed Mimic's boss, got shot too. He convinced Dazai to go to the side that saves people and finally, died as well.

Sorry honey, but...

When I ask people something, that doesn't mean that I'm being spoon-fed. Clearly, I've learnt a lot of things on Google, and I just fricking asked a genuine question. Not garnering information.

This war prior to that one questioned which I had asked about... well, don't wanna put up that topic anymore. But yes, do check out the tags.

To that one follower who told me to search on Google instead of people 'spoon-feeding' me, tell you what? I never needed your dumb, useless opinion. The only person who can spoon-feed me is myself. If you don't wanna reply with a yes or no, why consider reblogging and saying meaningless crap?

A genuine question! You suck, literally.
