okay unironically I love so much that porter is like this world SUCKS its BAD here and it HURTS you why do you care abt it!!! and literally every single bad kid is like ngl we just hate ur ass it does not matter what ur philosophy is
#dimension 20#fantasy high junior year#not art#fhjy spoilers#its!!! gods I will Be My Ass in the tags rn. but thats so like. deliciously setting typical#like porter's desire is to transcend and his contempt for the world he's in feels. idk Real#like he plays the game bc he wants to win and be done with it. how do I word this#yknow. being a god would like. be his win state. when he gets that happening thats it his story is done he checks out#meanwhile the bad kids do actually just like playing the game lmao. like they love adventuring!#theyre so solidly Of This World. they carry the values that can only be born of it and they like having mastery over it#its a meta angle that I think is very fun specifically for d20 being in such a unique position in the zeitgeist when it first started#the rat grinders are from DnD Writ Large. porter wants to escape. but this is the bad kids' home its Their Actual Play Show#which makes it so fucking excellent to me that porter's question is somewhat of merit! its their show and it tries very hard to punish them#and they just straight up dont listen to him here lmao bc they hate him but! since the moment the academic track ended its been clear#that they save the world bc they Like Playing. With Each Others#thats what riz thinks the core of adventuring is! thats why fig stayed! and I also think thats why this hovers over elmville now and#a dead god is coming back in the school gym. porter is a shit evangelist but even if hes a good one I dont think it wouldve worked like he#wants it to. the only way he couldve escaped is if he'd not involved elmville at all. thats where the bad kids met dude#its a shitty place that fucks with them but they all come back here bc they wanna play with each others#and in that regard I think thats what the stress tokens ultimately means. Is This Game Still Fun To Play. ITS A RAGEQUIT LIMIT#Im literally running from one end to another of this conspiracy board Ive pulled out of nowhere#Ill draw after this I just wanna get this out. gods this episode has done nothing but furthering my delusion of grandeur actually#Im the hottest smartest manthing on earth Im king fucking midas over here. anyways uh! great ep!

Literally crying (the good kind) after watching that trailer for like the fifth time today and I'm just so overwhelmed because this show Middle Earth and everyone in it is so important to me and these trailers have been so epic and beautiful full of emotion and light and dark and everything I love from Tolkien and LOTR films (since the trilogy was how I first got into Middle Earth) and I never thought I'd see something that would compare to LOTR Trilogy but The Rings of Power truly does. I care so much about these characters just like I do Frodo and Sam and Aragorn and Eowyn etc.
And it also makes me emotional hearing Bears beautiful rousing score once again he is gonna knock it out of the park. Im crying at Celebrimbor at Elronds desperate fight to save the world and people he loves at Galadriel and the huge weight she carries. I am so invested in them all.
It looks phenomenal from the music and costumes to the dialogue and set pieces this world is real they have made magic and it deserves so much appreciation so much love because I can see that it is made with heart and soul and is a story for all time, one that I am so grateful to hold so close.
#the rings of power#ignore me im emotional#I also of course include our wonderful fandom in this#and the excitement and anticipation that has been building makes it so much fun#a very ate night ramble when I should be sleeping haha#but I remember on a LOTR documentary a fan made one#and there was this booth that you could go in and say why you love LOTR#and one guy just went on about how he wanted to hug and hold it tight and have it rain on him lol or something#and thats how I feel about TROP#It is so special to me and LOTR and TROP have helped me and always do help me#get through things like losing my dear cat this year it hurts ike hell#but this world is an escape and a hope and Middle Earth is so much more than just another fantasy world#it feels authentic and the fact trop has captured that magic means so much to me#I can't wait for s2!!!

so i started this show and it just gets worse and worseeeee not only did it lift the romance subplot directly from twilight (and not well) but they also are trying to play the forbidden love angle hard in the fantasy racism vein except it's a "cross-species" relationship between the two whitest people i've ever seen in my life and there are three people of color in the whole (first season of the) show who aren't villains and it seems that every other episode (and sometimes ebery episode and sometimes twice an episode!) there is a man physically or magically subjugating a woman and i keep waiting for the big reveal at the end to be stolen from fucking rainbow rowell
#yes i read 'carry on' by rainbow rowell in middle school what else could you have possibly expected from me. anyway she gives me simon snow#vibes and not in a good way and she's even blonde while her british vampire boyfriend has dark dark hair and just. you will never be basil.#also i hate to be that guy but the writing has made me physically recoil and the acting almost reads as silly but mostly as middling :/ and#i wanted and expected more from matthew goode bc i really liked him in downton but i guess this is a 2018 bbc modern vampire fantasty serie#like i guess.#also there's SO much shit about bloodlines and maybe i'm gay with a blood disorder amd a family history of adoption but like. who fucking#careeessssssssss it ahould not be that serious. why is it that serious.#also the fantasy racism kind of reads like it's mesnt to be? homophobic adjacent? like there's a Lot of 'love who you love' talk going on#for the single most bland heterosexual relationship i've ever seen on a screen like there is so little chemistry? so little#anyway it's called 'a discovery of witches' and i'd recommend not watching it 🫶 or if you do then watch it on 1.5x speed#it's been decent background noise for knitting bc i kinda sorta care about the plot but if miss a chunk bc i'm in the lace chart zone i do#not care and i do not have to go back to catch it bc the writing is so transparent#there was another series it stole from that's escaping me atm but when i noticed it pissed me off a touch. hmm maybe it will come back to m#a post#do not watch this show#I REMEMBERED they wanted the juliette holding diana captive moment to be joaquin's 'i want to watch you fuck her' from sense8 SOOOOO BAD bu#it WASN'T bc they were too afraid to lean into anything that would make juliette interesting at all. for being all about the world's most#special blonde woman this show does not seem to like women very much. sad! well there's other shows#OH ALSO ALSO there are 3 magical 'creature' species which are witch + vampire + femon except the demons don't seem? to have any magical#abilities that humans don't have besides sensing the species of other creatures? like witches can cast spells and vampires do their various#vampire things but demons have nothing going for them except disproportionately high rates of homelessness and suicide?? like girl what are#we doingggggggg what are we doing here !! what's their deal why does no one care !! can they do anything or no !! god this show sucks

pretty privilege in general is a terrible tool. but when the racism that it's ingrained in really has a platform to activate, it's just absurd .
#if ure a pretty white boy. oh my goodness. roll out the red frickin carpet to all the fame attention & feminization in the world#omg hes so pretty. pretty like a woman. hes just like a woman. lets treat him like an object#everything he does isnt really his fault. hes just a girl bcs hes pretty. bcs hes pretty lets make him cry#lets do a deepdive into his character & pounce or paint any opportunity possible to find a villain in his life that isnt himself#meanwhile a poc person is pretty & theyre get a compliment sure#but never like. a normal one#they can get treated like a goddess or a god yea#but like. one that imposes fear and distance. only to be admired from a distance#if ure pretty and poc then ure an artifact to steal#if ure pretty and white then ure a crisp blank page for ppl to doodle out all their fantasies and plans for u to fold right along into#bcs ure pretty just like a girl: usable.#shit is just stacks on stacks on stacks of stagnant thinking stacked onto sick ideals#idk man#maybe im just going crazy bcs i hate too much of anything. getting irritable & tired from feeling trapped#cant ever escape anything bcs the very existence of escape implies the threat of capture

the thought of cracking the spine of a book makes kevin nauseous. he like opens it just enough to see the words and holds the book at such uncomfortable angles to read— anything to keep the book pristine and intact. he does not let people borrow his books because he is a control freak (as a term of endearment) and does not trust them to take care of them the way he does.
and andrew is the complete opposite, cracking the spine as soon as he opens it. he annotates in pen. he dog ears the pages because who the fuck has time to find a bookmark. he throws books out of anger. he throws them at aaron for fun. he lets them get smashed and torn in his bag. he always keeps them, he just prefers them to look like they’ve been read.
#someone asks kevin what he’s reading and he doesn’t say the name he just explains the ENTIRE plot of whatever historical thing it is#then is like oh….it’s [book] by [author]….#someone asks to borrow a book from him and he’s like “i’m sure the library has it”#andrew probably reads horror and sci fi#he probably fucks with stephen king heavy#i refuse to believe andrew “eidetic memory” minyard is “aLLeRgiC tO boOkS”#have you heard him speak… so poetic for what#i fucking know he’s read shakespeare. he hated it but he read it#imagining andrew as a child in foster care escaping in fantasy worlds to get away from his real life is doing something. bad. to me#kevin reads historical fiction and nonfiction#my baby has a special interest and i will do nothing but respect that#“kevin how often do you think about the roman empire”#“…every time i turn on the faucet… why…?”#and when they stare blankly at him he goes on a RANT about roman acqueducts and how they were#“—LITERALLY REVOLUTIONARY WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT??? we would not have running water THINK ABOUT THAT for ONE SECOND”#neil josten doesn’t read. he can’t sit still long enough to#aftg#kevin day#andrew minyard#all for the game#the foxhole court#tfc

I always see people argue about Star Wars cannon and what the “right” way to interpret the story is and like man I’m just here for the vibes.
Me: Cannon? What’s cannon? Never heard of her. I live in my own Star Wars world.
#like I’m really just here for the vibes#I can talk about the larger implications and politics at play in Star Wars sure#I’m aware of the those specific elements#I just rather not you know?#I am so heavily involved in real life politics that when I escape into a fantasy world#I really don’t want to have to think about the real life terrifying issues staring us down in the USA that I have to deal with constantly#it’s my fantasy world and I’m the only one living in it lol#star wars#star wars prequels#obi wan kenobi#star wars clone wars#the clone wars#anakin skywalker

as someone who is primarily insane about my own comic ocs more than any other set of characters Ever it is. odd to think to myself "ugh im tired of working on this comic batch. im so excited to finish so i can reward myself by drawing these characters again but not in comic form."
#ik my experience is definitely Not universal#but listen. i love my guys. i love my guys sosososo much. they are my world#i think its (at least partly!) because runes was a result of me working backwards from the typical webcomic production process maybe#like it started out as a bunch of Characters without much thought of story other than Vague Fantasy Things#but mostly they were kinda just a bunch of Guys i daydreamed abt as a child for some kind of escape#but then they became a lot more than that and i wanted to give them an actual solid story#like i had so much love in my heart for them that i Needed to share them with the world somehow#so a story started forming. n eventually i decided i wanted it to be a webcomic so. yeah#i love them so much i made an entire comic about them. you understand#forrest chatters#runes tag

I couldn’t pick which part of this comic to post out of context so here’s the entire thing.
#there are so many parts of this that would be comedic GOLD in isolation#Dilt casually hanging out on a street corner reading a huge ‘Advanced Math’ textbook for fun#‘let’s saunter over to my lab!’#‘Archie BLEW my calculator’#(or just the explosion panel by itself because it’s amazing)#‘I first have to reduce archie to an equation! come back tomorrow!’#‘Archie does not compute’#any one of these would have been great out of context but they'd be redundant if I tried to use more than one without actually#posting the context#so here’s the context#archie comics#archie with context#dilton doiley#betty cooper#archie andrews#veronica lodge#‘I envy the way you avoid the real world by escaping into mathematics’#dang just going to call him out on escapism and antisocial tendencies like that?#betty you don’t have to be jealous math is free and available to anyone#you can start escaping into mathematics too whenever you like betty#or be a different sort of nerd and escape into fantasy fiction it doesn’t matter there’s a lot of ways to perform escapism#it’s really not that hard betty just find something interesting and obsess over it to the point where it consumes your every waking thought#then make a sideblog about it

Better yet, if you were born in the atla universe, which of the elements do you think you would have been born into? Which element do you wish you could bend? Which element do you think fits your personality best?
i let this question marinate in my head the whole day and as i did other things i was like "i need to go into the nuances between which element i Would bend vs the one i Want to" so know i was pleasantly surprised to come back to tumblr and see the way you phrased it
realistically i would be a nonbender because life rng just sucks for me but putting that aside i'd probably have been born an earthbender. can't really explain why but it's the culture ig + the harsh grittiness of earth earthbending is very much in my nurture. cue my arc of self-kindness
the mbti thinker part of me would say fire fits my personality best because ohho incredibly robust personality and often i speak at inappropriate volumes and HONORRR but NO im going to answer sober and say water, which is also the element i'd like to bend the most. if i could remove all my life experiences and go back to my raw state of being, i would most definitely be water. the elegance, flow of dance, deep running emotional rapids, steadfastness of life yanno
tldr make me the avatar and i'll only use two of them
#as i was answering this#my head was just rotating the word escapism over and over again#oh to live in a fantasy world....#i have never even watched atla properly but i was semi-part of the fandom#i am curious though what you would have thought i was?#slice of ei#ei mail ꩜ᵕ̈

Woohoo! I managed to get this week's video out! Not on time, mind you, but I got it up! And I'm relieved.
Also Celeste is back and she makes me so happy. It's always fun to make a Celeste video. She's my goofy, playful half-Fae with a long-suffering alpha werewolf mate who loves her enough to put up with her mischief... anyway
This one was so much fun!!! Enjoy!
#Tally Mark ASMR#aka me!!!#TM Celeste#We've got GB and Escaped out here making cinema with just audio#and Redacted with one of The Most Immersive contemporary fantasy worlds I've ever experienced#and then there's me. who makes episodic chill vibes escapism#I could do cinematic but the ideas I have for cinematic are always So Niche and never get seen by more than 200 people#-_-#anyway! new video and I'm excited to share!#Youtube

ohhh reading the fnaf wiki page on that book with Moon on the cover makes the daycare music playing in the Fredbear Cutout ending really connect more to the filename for that ending
#ruin spoilers#moondrop#fnaf ruin#at first I thought that it was just cause Cassie has fond memories of the daycare#so that this escape fantasy world would have the familiar music of the daycare#but now I. Do not think it is for that.

I sustain myself with fanfiction till my favourite tv couples return
#personal life sucks#my work place gives me constant anxiety#at least fandoms and fanfiction is an escape coping mechanism#sometimes i wish could drown myself into the fantasy world and never have to face reality again#this isn't sound healthy at all#just ramblings things#please carry on
