feminism is gortash being the one to sleep his way into money & power, not orin
#baldur's gate 3#finding those letters was the beginning of the end for me. i cannot let it go. sugarbaby gortash has a deathgrip on my frontal cortex.#lady j you have a terrible taste in men and i RESPECT that. get that toxic dick queen#imagine being one of those patriars and watching your former sneaky link boytoy overthrow the city and install a mechanical dictatorship#also the idea of gortash being someone's secret saucy little minx while looking like a haunted brick with a clip on fringe is sending me

Cait is so fucked up now and while I still love her it is much harder to have sympathy for her compared to Vi or Jinx. Like, born with a silver spoon, arrogant even when she was well-intenioned. She experiences loss one time and can now fully understand hatred of the whole Undercity even though a good half the violence that occurs down there is directly caused by the Piltover superiority and upper class. Like. Girl.
#gems watch#she was a step away from dictatorship the entire s2 act 1 that was not a heel turn at all#it was a move an inch to the left#arcane#arcane spoilers

Someday, people will have to take their head out of the mud, and realize how much pain American imperialism has caused in Latino American countries and the way it destroyed our homes
#the tears of anger that burst from me as I watch my people my brothers and sisters#bleed on the streets as they protest a dictatorship#meanwhile stupid people in the USA protest that dictatorship is GOOD actually#watching American assholes ignore Latinos definition of Latino#for whatever race war they have#it pisses me off how everyone wants to project their idea of what Latinoamérica means into us#when they know nothing of the poverty and violence we live through

Dreamed I was a baby lyctor on a roadtrip with John and the rest through uhhhh time-travelled pre-resurrection earth? But fucked up?
Mercymorn was gaslighting John about never having been from New Zealand, actually. John was gaslighting us about setting our van on fire to scare us. Everyone was gaslighting John about being perfectly aware of what he was doing.
Mercy and Augustine started crying because it was the first time they got to see the seashells they grew up with.
#also there was an evil thanergy-powered media dictatorship with sitcoms that have run for longer than any person should have been alive#everyone had to watch them and pretend to like them even though they were filmed in a mega creepy death zone#and being trans was very illegal.#though admittedly I think at that point the tlt dream had merged into a general camping dream because who were those kids#the locked tomb#chaos rambles#the seashells made a very distinctive sound when stepping on them#we were in the middle of a car chase and had to stop when they saw them

i fucking warned you people. there's this bullshit 5 days before the anniversary of FM declaring martial law while countless survivors and their family members continue to suffer. we aren't a story for you to blorbocize over. an actual dictatorship isn't a plot device.
#Martial Law#Marcos dictatorship#dictator musical#here lies love#i'm acting on good faith that this person doesn't know.#but most people also don't and 9times out of 10 they won't check into the media they watch anyway

people hating gale and the carreers when they were just kids and a product of their environment breaks my heart
#like.. they were under a regime.. you cannot fault them for playing by snow's rules when they all saw first hand what happens when you tell#him no. katniss and the others were brave enough to go against him but you cannot expect everyone to have the same courage#and it was very wrong of plutarch/haymitch/katniss to assume that the career victors were pro games/pro snow#just bc they played the safest game#the career districts are indoctrinated into believing the games are an honour. they are manipulated from the moment they are born#gale has lived in poverty his entire life. has been forced to risk his life every year just so he can feed his family of SIX.#has watched his home be bombed right in front of him and most of his neighbours be burned alive. has been tortured in the square#sorry that he wants revenge ig#people need to realise that most of us would end up being like him or the careers rather than the very few who were brave enough to fight#just take a look at how normal people behaved during past regimes or dictatorships#sorry for this random think piece lmao i'm just seeing a lot of thg videos on tiktok and they are pissing me off#keeping up with tina

Miss your monster art </3
hey im glad to hear someone likes and misses my fanart! monster is still one of my favorite pieces of media ever, but right now im just trying to focus on more silly self indulgent art to fight art block so im not planning to revisit it for now
#i can elaborate#so theres some rambles ahead#naoki urasawa is one of the guys ever and a big inspiration for me#but i had to take a break in consuming his works for now because it oftenly tackles themes of political injustice#like i started reading 20th century boys around January-February 2022#and i fucking loved it#but like the last chapter i read was about dictatorship#and then war started in late February. yeah#same why i cant contunie on reading master keaton#theres a lot of geopolitical issues discussed#like in monster post ww2 germany is brought up often and its not something im mentally prepared to consume#pluto anime came out and ive read it and i think its an incredible piece of work and to my shame i still haven't watched it pass 2 episodes#bc i still have this kind of...block?#a lot of thoughts idk just didnt want to flood the post so its just my rambles that mostly here as a wiggly train of thought#what i say its hits a nerve because i want to feel safe with my art#and i dont have this mental energy to double issues that i already see irl around me first-hand

I just watched a video on Valle Verde and first and foremost, I'm so offended no one told me about this argentinian arg omg... Betrayed smh
But leaving that aside, i have suuuper mixed feelings for the project. Like on one hand it's super pretty and cool looking in every way possible, but god, the story is so 😬🫤
Like it's straight up just religious propaganda. It's just ooohhh devil nasty and evil and wants to corrupt the youth!!!! But Jesus protects u from within the game so u must be a good catholic boy waaahhh 👿😍😱
Like when i saw the abortion stuff i was already a bit mmm y'know but i tried to give it the benefit of the doubt being like well, it is very much a game, so it could easily be self aware of how catholic it is, but no.
They make it so damn obvious that this is the real deal and not just devs shoving their beliefs into the project but rather the meta creator doing it which is just, pretty disappointing to me tbh. Like it's not only annoying but it's also just boring to leave no room for speculation :/
But hey these are just my personal feelings, don't let this stop you from going in and seeing how it makes you feel tbh
#luly talks#valle verde#i did like a comment in the video i was watching making a connection between the aboritons n the dictatorship#i WAS actually wishing to see this arg use the chance to implement some argentinian lore#which it kinda does w that profet i had not once in my fucking life heard of!#again its a really cool project w amaizing visuals but its just painfully catholic man 💀

you ever watch an entire video essay and come out of it literally not knowing what the conclusion was meant to be, and find yourself yearning for like 2017 when it didnt feel like everyone and their nan were making video essays?
#kai rambles#im just#it was an hour long#i watched it for an hour#he contradicted himself every new chapter and literally nothing he said followed on from what he said before#there was a conclusion#no idea what it was#ahhhhhhhh#similarly the other say youtube recommended me the uh authoritarianism video by second thought#the videos about 23 minutes long#he doesnt mention nazi germany until minute 18#he also just makes incomparable comparisons between the ussr and modern day america#and like hes very charitable to the fucking soviet union#he also claims that modern day chinese police havent killed anyone in years which like i get that theres a lot of anti china propaganda#in the us and its not as bad as its made out to be but its still an authoritarian dictatorship#like i get america bad but also other countries can also be bad??#anyway the guy basically equates authoritarianism to socialism which o-fucking-kay then#youtube has been recommending me more leftist commentators recently and so many of them are just insanely ignorant americans#whose entire politics can be summed up as ''america bad'' and they get so caught up reminding you of that every thirty seconds that they#just come out with wild takes like north korea good actually or the war in ukraine was because america wouldn't stop aggressing russia#so yeah they shouldnt have invaded but it wasnt unwarranted and part of ukraine is ethnically russian anyway#like sir????? why are you repeating russian propaganda???? what youre saying it literally neo nazi propaganda what the fuck???#i heard that one a week ago and its still in my fucking head like jesus fucking chridt

yeah fuck it i'll watch steven universe again
#mud rambles#couldn't watch it anymore bc all the shit surrounding it made me upset any time I'd try#and i really. really. dislike the treatment of the diamonds#i understand they are supposed to serve as a metaphor for family and generational trauma but also?#using a literal dictatorship as a vehicle for that metaphor is Fucking Weird#steg is also so fucking weird. SO fucking weird.#no fusion is not a metaphor for sex it's a complex metaphor for ALL different kinds of relationships but. the way steg was acting toward#pearl. was so. so fucking weird.#and it just left a bad taste in my mouth. i have a hard time watching things i have issues with#this is not all the issues i have just. the big ones#but god. the queer rep at the time of its release. the way i was OBSESSED with it as a kid#ive been wanting to go back to it#and i've been getting better at accepting that no media is perfect in a way where i can continue to Consume the media without feeling#INTENSELY uncomfortable. so#like yeah of course i recognized not all media is perfect but i just couldnt. NOT think about the bad shit while consuming it#thanks to intrusive thoughts#anyway yeah

The reason I think getting into arguments online is bad for you is it rots your brain into thinking that the first reaction you should have to any situation online is to be mad at it. And then slowly your phone becomes a Make-You-Mad-Device, and when the doomscroll brain fungus sets in the only thing that makes you happy anymore is being mad about inane bullshit like ‘Label Discourse’ and ‘Fandom Etiquette’
#.txt#i notice that a lot of people really are just super mad all the time#like I’ll watch TikTok’s on my friends phone and it’s just…. constant vile shit#like people just shaking their heads in disgust at some bigot ranting and I think#‘so you watched an incredibly transphobic video for….. what?’ like there’s no added commentary#I dont see the benefit of like…. blackpilling yourself into thinking America is going to become a dictatorship and All Trans People will die

you guys think you have it hard imagine being a mash girlie and argentinian. at least you can kind of talk about it with old people. me? i told my dad about it and he was like oh yeah i have a vague recollection of its existence but i never wanted to watch it because it was about the US army. every response i get when i bring it up goes exactly like that too. nobody ever has any clue what the fuck i'm talking about beyond that. i go well it's a dramedy set in the Korean War and they go there was a war in Korea?
#txt#the thing is. im surprised it aired AT ALL but its gotta have aired either during the military dictatorship or right after it.#so needless to say. people were not super into the idea of watching a show about the army.
