Does anyone else hate that meme about only boys thinking about the Roman Empire and girls (and some gay men) gleefully being like “I only think about [insert current pop culture trend]”.

And it’s like continuing the meme that boys are intelligent beings, interested in history while girls are just…not

This coupled with the girl math thing, and also the “boys when they time travel vs. girls” and overall bimbofication trend. We’e going back in time where pretending to be stupid and vapid was the norm and it just alienates women who are proud of their intelligence even more from other women

#more of a personal note #idk being looked down on for being interested in history by peers my own age #while boys are just praised for it #hurtssss #it’s funny because I never had trouble making female friends literally ever #not at school or uni and not really work at my casual jobs #but when I went travelling this year with a group #for the first time I couldn’t make friends with other women #merely being interested in the above hobbies made me dull and uninteresting to them #and part of me thinks it’s too do with this overall infantilisation dumbing down of women #:(((

All right, what's on the ol' professional to-do list for this morning? Ah yes, a photoshoot with Stabby the Roomba. Naturally.

#gotta make the Patreon tiers look interesting #living the dream #I don't miss retail #and that's an understatement #'a book sale a day keeps the soul-sucking job away!'#crossing my fingers that all this is as promising as it looks #anyways I'm off to tape knives to my Roomba again #then work on editing other people's writing and do a bunch of other things #never a dull moment #Stabby the Roomba #Patreon #it should be coming back soon #stay tuned #and if the cat comes down to join the photoshoot in entertaining ways #I will be sure to share #writer life

watching my favorite lesbian tragedy

#bridgerton spoilers #peneloise #i feel INSANE #because they will find some dull way to write themselves out of it but eloise is right!#she understands what colin NEVER will #eloise has seen the real penelope she's seen her hunger for self sufficiency and her penchant for petty gossip #and the utter RUTHLESSNESS of her ambition!#she's had her reputation & the reputation of her entire extended family dragged through the mud by whistledown #and angry as she is she STILL keeps penelope's secret #because truthfully if she could she would trade places w/ pen she WISHES she could be whistledown #& more than anything else THAT'S why she's angry! that she wasn't included in this. that penelope has found this path to power & influence #while eloise is forced to conform to her family's wishes & marry a man she doesn't love #& make small talk at parties for the rest of her life while she's rotting inside #colin loves a girl he made up in his head #eloise loves (AND hates!) the real penelope in equal measure #they are sooo much more interesting than polin will ever be i'm scratching at my walls

do you ever just get so exhausted by the same characterization of characters in fanfic that you have to binge read hannigram fics??

like fanfic is riddled with characters wrestling with their morality and making sure they’re good people and if they even do something slightly morally wrong they’ll beg for forgiveness and apologize over and over again through stumbled rambling. and the characters feel guilty about the dumbest fucking shit like having sexual fantasies about someone and they spiral because “it’s not right and they don’t have the right to have sexual fantasies about that person”. and the romances are painfully all healthy and sweet and they have conversations about everything in depth.

like god fanfic is so filled with morality it can just be exhausting and sometimes i just need to read about two men who are unapologetic about how toxic they are and use murder and manipulation as foreplay.

#hannibal #hannibal lecter #hannigram #will graham #this is also why i don’t read modern day books #cause they’re just so dull and exhausting #the characters all HAVE to be morally correct #AND we always get rants about dumb shit so we know how the author feels about a subject #i remember reading an adult book and a character went on a random fucking internal rant about how virginity is a social construct #the way i rolled my eyes so hard #because it literally did not matter to the story and it was so random #books are so filled with moments like those and it’s so boring #we get it you’re liberal and woke #please at least let your characters be interesting #that’s it #it’s fiction #please for the love of god this is where you can be creative and interesting #but they never are #op

mm but seriously pathologic rewired my brain in how to approach a narration and the time and space it takes place in. you don't need a date to find its correspondence in your history book. you don't need to find this city on your world map. you don't need to know where the line between delusion, reality and magic is set. you don't even need to know who these people were and will be once their act is over. deal with it.

#(a companion of my previous post about not being obsessed with de as i was with patho)#(very different games on many levels)#but the thing is i prefer the untold and the unknown #so when disco elysium offers hints and theories about the nature of the pale but doesn't point to a solution #i just don't care about finding out what it is really about #not for lack of curiosity or interest #more like in a 'the things about desire is that it's stronger when it's not totally satisfied' way #i am the kind of person who doesn't care about solving a riddle if the riddle sounds like a fine poem on its own #maybe i am just dull #it's personal tag again

i haven’t been here much recently, and i’m sorry i’ve only been negative on the off chance i’ve been online, but let me just say one last piece before the end of this month, so that maybe the next might be better….

#or maybe my time here ends w this month…i’m not sure i guess it all depends on how i feel but as of right now #everytime i think i'm fine i open tumblr and immediately am sad again the whole app has become my doomscroll at this point #i got a notification on a random talking post from a while ago and it felt like reading the words of a completely different person #lately i find it difficult to find any joy here at all when it always feels so lonely… a type of loneliness i’ve never experienced before #everyone always has ppl interacting w them who are interested in their stuff or are always sent things that are reminiscent of them....#i’m always praised for remembering stuff abt other ppl but i wonder if anyone remembers anything abt me #what is it about me that is so forgettable am i dull am i uninteresting did i not solidify myself enough do you guys just not like me lolz #but i don't want this to come across as guilt tripping or being ungrateful to what i do have because ik comparison is the death of joy but #it's still hard to watch when it's so in your face and it makes me think if ppl only talk to me because they feel obligated to #because anyone can say empty words.... i wish my perception of things didn't turn bitter i wish i hadn't become so jaded but #over and over i've felt irrelevant cast aside overshadowed and i cannot exist in a place where i feel like i'm a ghost in the corner #idk i've never felt like This before and i'm at least glad it's something i can walk away from by just....leaving...#sad that this used to be somewhere i can run away To but now it's become somewhere i want to run away From #i don't know...even if i get over whatever this is...things will never be the same for me... i just don't think i belong here #if only i had never made this blog then i would have saved myself a world of turmoil

I can't claim credit for the idea - Imogen and Laudna corruption arc has floated around for a while - but honestly I'm not sure why this is coming up as some kinda gotcha for me? I'd fucking love that honestly. It would completely validate my statement that they are insular and toxic and often acting against the interests of the rest of the party AND either it would end with interesting character growth or with them departing and being replaced by new characters. I'd be excited for either!

#i truly don't think the weirdo shippers get it. I'd be ECSTATIC if they said eh fuck the moon and left to live in a cottage #to be replaced by new characters #if they're onscreen with the current status quo their relationship is dull and saved only by the fact that it's minimal in time spent #but like i don't care how specifically it becomes interesting and betraying the party and going out like thelma and louise would FUCK HARD #cr tag #literally replacing Laudna or making her fully evil would fix most of my complaints. this is so funny #WOW WE'LL SHOW UTILITYCASTER BY GIVING HER LITERALLY WHAT SHE SAID

Roman and Neo have "friends who go to graveyards and laugh at the funny names together" energy

Anways :3 just wanted to draw them in some formal outfits and got a little carried away lol

#also used two songs i had stuck in my head for lyrics lol they seemed pretty fitting :)#Roman Torchwick #Neopolitan #Neo Rwby #Rwby #rwby roman holiday #these are kiiiind of inspired bybtheir matching valentines outfits but not really you can see it more on roman than neo #Please dont tag as ship <3 #lyrics r To My Enemies by Saint Motel and Mad Hatter by Melanie Martinez #my art #omg these are so much more dull on my computer bruh #Something funny I noticed about Roman is his shoes never really match his outfits #either being too formal (like when he wore the hoodie and-#-black pants with black leather dress shoes) or too informal (like his dirty looking brown shoes with his main outfit) i just think this is #-interesting. Am i looking too far into things? Probably. But i think its amusing

the great thing about reading a mediocre book is that it puts me right to sleep

#perfect bedtime activity #im halfway through the pairing and i genuinely keep falling asleep each time #only continuing for the italian sections so if something funny or interesting happens i can send it to res #the main problem is that i simply don't gaf about these characters like we know Nothing about them #and everything about their relationship is told not shown #in that way it kind of if feels like fanfic? like i'm supposed to know these characters already #'i didn't know where we ended and love began' 'love took root in me before i even knew its name' i don't know who they areeee #so the book starts with their breaking up and then they end up on the same european food tour and decide to see who can out-slut each other #like......that's it. and it's so obvious they still have feelings for each other. like what are the stakes!! it's so dull #it's fluffy in a way that makes me roll my eyes if that makes sense #like there was a chapter where they go into a bakery and the owner is panicking bc for Some reason literally all the staff couldn't show up #that day. so ofc the two characters on their own decide to step in and help her make all the pastries before opening time. huh?????#is that even possible??? PASTRIES??? two people???#i have to roll my eyes #idk it just feels so random. like i feel like that's something i would see in fanfic #so yeah this is Not Good and to me this author peaked with their debut

every day i wake up have another fucking Realization about ajax and the shit he says and i just. Holds head in hands

WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE SAID THIS IN 1.1 WHAT DOES HE KNOWWWW

like childe Literally said skirk never elaborated on the narwhal thing to his face At All nvm explicitly bring up its origins as a cosmos traveling entity so its like. Either he lied (which would be funny as fuck im ngl) or Literally just . got the completely coincidental urge to call out the phrase "celestial voyager" at . his elemental attack recreation of the creature that just Happens to indeed be A celestial voyager . just Somehow. like how wildly convenient of you to identify that element specifically there with 100% accuracy ajax care to fucking Elaborate on the source of that inspiration there . Thanks xx

(i want this man dead irl)

#this guy in 4.0: oh yeah idk what 'it' was maybe that whale i saw but yeah guess i have a lot to learn abt myself there #also him in version ONE POINT ONE: yeah lemme call my recreation of that whale by its Exact Correct Identifier #'dull mortal' has a friend i guess . in terms of boss dialogue that makes me lose it #i s2g if it turns out ajax has been the Small But Knowing Fool (get it like fatuus) the entire time and he just #doesnt mention that shit bc its like . not particularly relevant for the time being . why waste oxygen on it #anyway alternatively is like the concept of a space traveling whale . some folklore thing #that jist hasnt come up before but is a thing in lore and served as partial inspiration which is like #ok pure speculation firstly But would still be kinda interesting if it ends up being a thing #but like given the entire. mental connection thing #i Do find it Curious ajax mayhaps instinctively identifies aspects of the narwhal like that #same entity allegations undodged as Usual. i want to scream #anyway. why does he say this shit its like sometimes it feels like he Knows #but Whatttttt #what does it mean...#rambles #genshin #childeposting

kinda late on this but it’s 37 years since the first episode of series 2, one of my favourite early Casualty episodes, A Little Lobbying aired!

montage scene I think is fun (followed by what you might not think is hospital-politics-based flirting, but absolutely is that):

#featuring walls come tumbling down which is a tune #potentially weird thing to know: this is one of very few scenes where sandra wears trousers instead of a skirt outside work!#at work she wears almost exclusively the trousers version of the uniform (except for moonlight becomes you)#late because i have been reading this DULL book i usually aim to get my reading done in the afternoon but i keep procrastinating this one #i have a 50 pages every day requirement :/ i like public history a lot it’s super interesting this book is just boring #bbc casualty

Under the cut are mostly self-insert doodles of decreasing quality. Again, not much directly tied to Team Fortress 2. Might as well toss these out while I have no access to my puter. Much yapping under the cut and in the tags incoming.

Another self-insert, this time less of a "here's me as a tenth class" and more of a "here's my game experiences translated into the class I would take the place of". The Cleaner. Although I guess they could still be wearing either suit. It doesn't matter that much.

That one Convict's Case taunt with Backup would be extremely funny, because the man would be on the verge of a breakdown (he does not want to go to jail so bad you have no idea). The second image- I owe no explanation. You know what I am. You see the pattern with my favourites.

The duality of the man. Resting face versus "just heard you express interest in religion/Russian folklore" face. He's not that hard to make friends with, when you pull him away from all the explosions.

Some doodles of trying to figure his face out. Unfortunately, the more I stare at him, the more I worry that he looks like A Certain Guy With The Last Name "Kazarin", and the fear of never being original in my life caught up to me.

Don't look at me, don't perceive me, I refuse to explain any of my actions to you.

#team fortress 2 #tf2 #that's it that's the only tags i am putting this in. maybe someday i will have the balls to do more but for now that's about it #while i have the chance - and since posts with more of my yapping in the tags don't pop in people's feeds much - i might as well ramble-#-about these guys here. self-inserts or not i'm projecting only half of my bullshit on each one of them. creativity 👍#backup is tall and pale and has sharp canines and more of a dull brown hair colour with tired grey eyes. no amount of babyface or soft-#-hands can really help a motherfucker when he's grimacing so much because he just Hates being around half the people on the team.#cleaner meanwhile is on the shorter side and has constantly flushed skin and brighter colours and whatnot. you can't see it because of the-#-mask most of the time but they do smile a lot more and have a more cheery disposition towards life and see the whole team as their friends!#backup transitioned fully (albeit not very legally lmao) and is scared shitless of not being seen as a man although the last time that ever-#-came up was years ago. he holds onto his last name as part of the heritage he loves and loathes at the same time - attached to his culture-#-and religion and bloodline while also resentful of his family and the regime he knows someone else on the team suffered under.#cleaner just kinda binds and calls it a day. he only does it to confuse the team because while he doesn't identify with being a girl he-#-loves the confused looks his epic gender reveal moment gets. they do not remember their family name or where they grew up or what even got-#-them to this kind of mental state. and he's chill with it he values the here and now way more than some dark edgy backstory.#backup despite trying to be an honest man is afraid of vulnerability as well. he stubbornly refuses to express love towards certain people-#-lest they feel disgusted and turn away. he's afraid of consequences afraid of losing the people he loves afraid of his ''interests'' being-#-what drives them away. it doesn't by the way and he just wasted time being a cold indecisive loser for several months lmao #cleaner wears a suit that hides all of them yes but they pretty much never lie. he is always his truest self and he can always just burn-#-people who don't like him enough to make it a problem. they are a lot more comfortable indulging in their interests - be they innocent-#-and juvenile or violent and dangerous. he is quite open with his affection and his fascinations that backup would rather keep secret.#i want to establish that these two can only exist in separate universes because they both have feelings towards the funny assistant lady-#-and the funny inventor guy (selfshipping for the winnn) and would fight over those two. cleaner would win by the way #it's also a really funny point of comparison. cleaner is objectively more fucked up than backup and still managed to be more normal about-#-their feelings and live as a healthier and happier person than that guy. comedic gold honestly #OKAY I'M DONE if you read up to here you get uhhh a cookie :-)

i'm guessing at this rate it's not going to take long for jere to reach his goal of becoming a millionaire 🤪🤑 ok it's such a stupid amount of money that i have no clue how difficult it would be to achieve, but babygirl must well and truly be on her way once the money from his OF and airbnb start rolling in 😎

Jo sillon päätin, еttä käärin itteni miljonääriks (hei) Back in the days, jo sillon päätin, еttä hillot käärin ku miljonääri (hei) Milli-milli-milli-miljonääri, milli-milli-milli-miljonääri

#käärijä #kidding kidding #also i just think it's very smart of him to do all these things but it also makes being a fan of his very interesting #never a dull day in the käärijä fandom #if only i had any reason at all to go to helsinki i might consider the airbnb #but nooo i've only been to helsinki once in my life and i doubt i'll have any reason to go and stay overnight maybe ever but who knows
