#does this count as taking a break?

[hyperfixated-homo]

Just wanted to check in on you, you haven't posted or rbed anything in a bit, and I just want to make sure that you're okay. I mean, if you're taking a break from tumblr then of course you're fine, and you're not obligated to post, but I wanted to make sure you're okay the best I can just in case.

Hi! I'm using this as my official "I'm not dead" post.

I'm doing fine, thank you for checking on me :). It's been a bit weird recently for me in terms of social media, because I still strongly want to talk to all of you guys but also interacting always feels like too much effort for some reason. I simultaneously do not have the energy to care while wanting to be here at every second of the day.

+ the fact that my mom has been forcing a sort of screen detox on the house (not letting us use the screens unless we're working, taking them away at night, etc) I haven't really had the time? And then when I do have time I feel kinda overwhelmed by how much stuff I've missed that I sort of feel like I have to interact with? It's eh.

I'm also going through some mild burnout I think? I always want to be drawing or writing but when I do I feel exhausted. I'll be back on my bs later I'm sure, but for now I'm just going to chill for a bit.

On a more positive note, I've been much more active irl. Had a celebration recently (not naming anything specific bc it's kinda personal) that was really fun. I'm starting my school stuff, which is taking a lot of my time. Oh and I've been sort of hyperfixating on lord of the rings, so basically I do not have time for any other thoughts.

I may interact with some stuff every now and then, liking and sharing stuff on insta and rbing a cool post every now and then, but I won't be as active for a bit. I'll do more later, probably. It sucks bc I just made a whole ton of friends here and then immediately do not have the energy to talk to them, but I hope you guys understand <3

Finally finished this guy

Also the silly sketch page/ planner (mostly because it was like 2 when I made it and was tired)

Booting up program: future me's problem to figure out

Concept: Mouse Holder Félix. He’s everywhere.

His powers allow him not only to multiply himself, but essentially control a hive mind of tiny versions of him? He immediately sees allll the things he can keep an eye on at one time.

Adrien opens his bag and yelps because a tiny Mouse!Félix is there like, “Finally, I’ve been waiting to talk to you for at least half an hour.” and Adrien is like, “You couldn’t have texted??” and Félix replies with, “No, this is more discreet. Also more dramatic. Anyways-”

Kagami is enamored with Mouse!Félix. She can hold him in the palm of her hand. He chills in her pocket. She can sneak him into any place she wants. There are many benefits to Mouse!Félix.

I also just imagine there’s like, a spy network of many Félixs watching the city and tracking down leads. However even if he manages to bypass the timer and not detransform, I do think he probably gets killer migraines from being in Multitude for too long due to needing to process what every version of him is experiencing at once and getting major overstimulation after a while. Do you see my vision.

I like it when the fandom engages with Chuuya drinking problematically or Akutagawa smoking despite his lung disease or Fyodor indulging his gambling addiction.

Asagiri can't explore the same, there's a censorship regime in Japan for manga aimed at certain ages. But even if he doesn't care to, fan works should be transformative and exploratory; and fan works that do so while engaging with the source material and its themes like humanity and contradiction and culpability are even more golden for doing so.

The urge to lacquer fiction in performative didactism and aversion to moral turpitude is self cannibalizing.

Interesting (to me at least) that the 40K universe's most highly educated kleptomaniac Trazyn the Infinite seems to be interested in every galactic civilization except his own. Unless I am forgetting something, he doesn't actually collect other necrons or their stuff (Orikan being the exception but that's more personal than professional). Sure there's definitely political reasons. I don't think the triarchy would appreciate it if he tried putting Szarekh in a pokeball tesseract labyrinth. But iirc the thought never occurs to him the way it does with other races/factions/civs when he sees or meets their heavy hitters. He has lots of necrontyr and War in Heaven stuff, but modern necrons appear to hold no interest to him, despite being self-described as a person who collects everything.

I wonder if it's because he sees necron civilization as stagnant. It's boring to him. Maybe it has to do with holding a mirror to himself and his own condition that he isn't prepared for. Or the inherent bias that comes from seeing oneself as the "default" and therefor unnecessary to study. Also wondering if his attitude will change as the Silent King/Stormlord civil war ramps up, the same way the drama of the Horus Heresy made him actively interested in humanity. Idk, just something I find curious. A blind spot for our intrepid archaeovist.

Fellow milgrammies! I arrive with yet another 09-related poll. I'm very curious as to what the most popular theory is currently, so,

Please feel absolutely free to rb & tell me your thoughts!!! I'm seeing lots of different interpretations about anything 09 related lately so I want to hear your opinions.

This is the delusion I'm going to choose to live in for the foreseeable future, I think. (Bonus doodle under the cut)

Uhm I'm only on episode 851 but crazy Whole Cake Island spoilers and well spoilers for Marineford and Saobody lol but like well yeah One Piece spoilers

There's something about the way Jinbei consoles those who are spiraling from grief. Like Brook was spiraling from the thought of Pedro sacrificing himself, and like Brook was a guy who literally had all of his crew, most of his loved ones die in front of him. Like I know damn well death isn't something he can take easily, no one can really. (Interesting to note that all of the Strawhats have experienced immense loss in their life, like the death of a loved one). Now here they are Pedro sacrificed himself for their sake and Brook was blaming himself for his death saying how he was too weak and this wouldn't have happened if they were stronger (sounds familiar). Everyone was grieving and taking his loss harshly when Jinbei reminded them of the bigger picture and Pedro's intentions. Jinbei has always been someone who's been grounded throughout the story, he sees them blaming themselves and breaks their spiraling reminding them that it's not the end.

Not to make this about Ace but to totally make this about Ace and Luffy (god I'm still so sad about it), Luffy was fucking blaming himself and calling himself weak. From the loss at Saobody and the loss of his brother Luffy was just, god he was not doing well. But Jinbei was there for him, grounding him and reminding him how he didn't lose everything and that shit is still worth it. And yes I see Ace's death as a sacrifice for protecting Luffy, though it was more of a heat-of-the-moment situation than Pedro who was prepared to die because his lifespan was already short. Really I'm just trying to point out the parallels in these two scenarios, the way Jinbei was able to ground Luffy and is now able to ground the Strawhats so they don't spiral to their grief. I mean Luffy was very grateful to Jinbei partly because of his support so it's nice to see others get this from Jinbei.

To the jonsa implying aunt/nephew and uncle/niece are on the same level as siblings in Westeros: no. In Westeros it is not taboo for an aunt or uncle to couple with a nephew or niece. I personally do not ship these types of pairings because of my real world sensibilities, but the kinda is proving your point because they probably brought that up to decry jonerys (which I don’t ship; tbh the only thing I really ship is Podrick and Sansa). But jonerys would be acceptable in Westeros. House stark has had this type of incest marriage. Jon and Sansa think of eachother as siblings and sibling incest is not okay in Westeros. They can like what they like but they’ve gotta drop the superiority complex

Sort of missing the point. Anyone saying "thats not acceptable incest but THIS is" does not realize they are adding to the issue. Aunt/nephew or neice/uncle was ONLY accepted through the Targaryeans, not normal houses. It isn't normal. Westeros doesnt see incest as normal.

The faster we ALL can understand that everytime you say "this is the accepted incest actually" you are only adding to this fire of the incest debate.

What the Targaryeans did is not universally accepted amongst Westeros and as soon as they were gone, their incestuous practices went right back to being demonized because the realm does not accept it.

The minority does not represent Westeros in incest and no debate of cousins, siblings, aunts, newphews will change that. It's not normal and the majority of characters in the series do not think its normal.

The shipping wars for Jon only ever boil down to who has the right incest ship, because they dont care about the in universe implications of the incest, just that their personal ship is morally superior.

Yall can ship incest, but none one will ever be morally superior for arguing any form of pro incest here. Not on my blog, thats for sure.
