“Too much has been made of origins. All origins are arbitrary. This is not to say that they are not also nurturing, but they are essentially coercive and indifferent. Country, nation, these concepts are of course deeply indebted to origins, family, tradition, home. Nation-states are configurations of origins as exclusionary power structures which have legitimacy based solely on conquest and acquisition.”

—Dionne Brand, [A Map to the Door of No Return, p64]

I am so fond of my headcanon that shadow has no idea how money works

Like he knows he exchanges money for goods, but he has no idea of the value anything holds

G.U.N issued him a bank account that they pay into, but he has absolutely no way of quantifying the amount in there. He was just told that he was not to give the numbers on the card to Rogue.

He once bought a $300 bag of coffee because he liked the packaging. He has a designer jacket that cost thousands and it was only when Amy pointed out that she knew the brand that he realised it must have been expensive. He’s bought VIP tickets for their concert trips more than once by mistake, then got frustrated when they tried to bring him backstage to meet the band (which he accidentally paid to do).

A few of his friends have described him as ‘surprisingly generous’ but truly he just has no idea what things cost

#Amy complains that she needs new bake ware and an entire le crueset set turns up at her door #he is confused and uncomfortable by how thankful she is #Tails explains needing a specific expensive part and Shadow returns with it #‘oh!! did you already have what I needed?’ ‘No? was the issue not transporting it???’#Rogue will absolutely invite him shopping and ‘forget’ her purse #he gets the feeling he’s being tricked somehow but doesn’t quite understand why he feels that way #GUN give him far more than enough to live on and he has no expenses so he’s loaded #he just has no idea #shadow the hedgehog #sonic the hedgehog

Demanding to explore six inches of snowfall and being offended that it is cold.

#just little baby things #they were warned they wouldn't like it #both made a single lap of the yard and returned to the porch to stare at the door #snow rating 4/10 #catblr #cats of tumblr

If he wanted to get more work done, he probably should have stayed in the Grand Necropolis.

The boy patting tournament has taken a competitive turn

[First] Prev <–-> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wei wuxian #lan wangji #wen ning #Our beautiful baby boy finally returns. Only to be told to get the hell out of here and move over cause its [lwj's] turn for pats #Literally that cuckhold comic. Will Wen Ning ever be able to catch a break?#He got nailed but only in the literal sense. Come ON.#In LWJ's defense - if you wrote a love song for a man only for him to play it for someone else...yeah you'd be defensive #Wen Ning deserves to have a love song dedicated to him. Not a secondhand one.#I didn't forget about LWJ's new outfit btw he just stripped down a bit.#As one does when they are afflicted with Clingy and in need of Affection #He makes the minecraft door opening sound when he enters the room. Just wanted to throw that detail out there.

Kingdom Hearts 3 - Arendelle

#kingdom hearts 3 #kh3 #arendelle #scenery #my gif #it's nighttime when you first arrive in this world and you get to see the auroras shimmering in the sky #it's very beautiful but once you reach a certain point in the game it becomes daytime and you're not able to view this world at night again #that's pretty unique and i can't think of any other worlds that are like that #except maybe the kingdom of corona when you see the lanterns fly at night but that's just for a short segment #at least san fransokyo gives you a choice to view the city during night or day #anyways i'm glad i had an older save file that i was able to return back to so i could get shots of this world at night #i would have included elsa's castle but every angle i tried looked really awkward and bad lol #i don't use mods when collecting footage so some things are out of my hands when trying to get a nice shot #how sad is it that the interior of her castle is fully modeled (you can see right through the front doors) but you can't go inside #all of the characters stand in a line outside the castle and i wonder why they couldn't just hang out indoors #let me in. let me innnnnn

Simon’s wife teaching Soap how to suck Simon’s dick for when they’re both on deployment >>>

oh my fucking god!!!!!'n

he almost snaps soaps neck cuz tf he doing standing so close to you talking in a hushed voice there will be no secrets in his mf house but then you're like, "yeah no, he doesn't care all that much about sucking on em, si prefers your mouth on his cock. if you're that needy for it you can palm em."

soap has this one intense look on him, set brows and lips pursed in thought.

"girl talk," you call it. "someone's gotta do it when i'm not able to."

#soaps on his belt buckle the moment they're behind closed doors #gotta see if what your bonnie said is true #later he teaches soap to return the favor on you :)#but he doesn't know you prodded the beast and he awakened it. good luck getting him off you afterz

I will admit I'm a little salty that people, in an effort to prove that there is no good dialogue in Veilguard at all, keep comparing mission exposition to the high point narrative set pieces of prior games. I agree that some of the writing related to plot mechanics and mission exposition in Veilguard is a little too utilitarian, but that doesn't mean none of the dialogue is good or that prior games didn't also sometimes have this issue here and there.

I also generally dislike when people put the bar for good writing — and all writing too, not even just dialogue writing, ALL writing — at mic-drop sentences that still sound good completely divorced from context, because that really just reduces "good writing" down to like fake-deep philosophizing or witty quips exclusively. sometimes, a really good bit of dialogue sounds like a completely normal sentence out of context.

#Also writing includes what's on the screen! The castling scene is good writing! Rook struggling to hold onto the statues AND the dagger?#The Siege of Weisshaupt is good writing! It is writing when Rook opens those doors to see Ghilan'nain and realizing oh this is....#Blood of Arlathan! But like just going back to dialogue writing #I think a lot about that INCREDIBLE bit of dialogue in Psych where Shawn say “Since I met you‚ I've been thinking about getting a car.”#Which is a perfectly normal sentence out of context but it makes me so warm bc I know the context #“That he forgives me. And that I deserve it.” is an INCREDIBLE moment that NEEDS its context #“What did we sign up for?” “Love‚ I think.” is another one #But even if we were to just go for Veilguard lines that are still great out of context? It has those?#I see all of you into “There is no fate but the love we share” which IS a great quote #“He is loyal to nothing but his own fears” and “The gods! They give strength but all they ask in return is everything”#“Regret is even strong enough to serve as the lock on a prison built to hold gods. But such a prison can hold any captive... even you.”#“Everything dies. People‚ cities‚ empires. Fashions. Your favorite song. Things fade and are forgotten. [cont.]#Why would you want to outlast everything you love? It sounds like a terrible fate.”#“Do you really think something inside you has changed?” “It's possible. Or maybe we're the same. But does that mean we'll BE the same?”#“The cost of mercy is too high when others may die in its wake.”#and so on and so on and that's just stuff I remember off the top of my head #DATV things

Something something about Eddie learning Buck will be there for him off the job, even without Chris being in the equation.

Something something about that being an important realisation for him to finally make because he’s always hidden behind his son when it comes to Buck (and his love life more generally - even Shannon in reality was for Chris not himself) but he won’t be able to this time.

Something something about that realisation being the key to giving himself permission to examine his heart and feel his true feelings.

#Eddie realising his worth separate from Chris is really important #and a part of that is learning that he has worth in the eyes of others without Chris being a consideration of that worth #Buck being there for him when Chris is absent is a key part of it.#because Eddie can literally put all of bucks actions down to being for and about Chris #(which we all know is not the case - Eddie is an unreliable narrator- just like Buck is)#I’m fascinated by the parallels with Bobbys s1 arc - about finding his worth without his family and building a new one #and seeing how the Church (and seemingly got priest) play into this #because I don’t think it’s the church that will lead to Eddie’s gay awakening - I think the church will give Eddie the capacity to forgive #himself and let Shannon go - to really deal with the healing there.#that will open the door for a Chris return at some point.#but I think Buck himself will be what leads Eddie to unlocking the feelings he’s been carrying around since at least the well if not before #Bucks steadfastness towards Eddie himself will give him the strength to give himself permission to examine his heart #911 spoilers #eddie diaz #evan buckley #911 abc #911 speculation #buddie
