You’re my favorite blog with an amazing costume and stellar art, so I hope to bestow upon you the small pleasure of asking you:
Trick or treat?
Thank you very much! I'm incredibly honoured to be your favourite blog! I know this is late but please accept this treat, happy belated Halloween!
#asks#fanart#tintin#adventures of tintin#captain haddock#archibald haddock#comic#halloween#trick or treat#i have no time to check for mistakes in this i will just have to live with them#haddock knows what a child is#i cant really imagine tintin and haddock celebrating halloween normally because it just wasnt really a thing in europe until very recently?#like im 24 and it was introduced here a little before i was born#halloween as it exists today is pretty american#i know a lot of people who arent that old who didnt even think about it growing up lol#i love halloween tho#it's a holiday that's purely optional and you can celebrate however you want it with whoever you want#alcohol tw

random thought bc I've been listening to Six on repeat: the queens claim that the only reason they're remembered is because of Henry, but would Henry be one of the most iconic and well-known English monarchs if not for them?
#like his defining trait is sorta 'bloke who had six wives who he treated pretty badly all told' plus the whole church of england thing#which arguably would have happened anyway in some sense since protestantism was sweeping europe but is generally credited to him wanting#a divorce whether thats accurate or not#yes he was quite charismatic etc but there were plenty of others who were too or at least interesting#like nobody talks about the guy who was Probably murdered in a framed hunting accident#or the one who was executed by having a red hot poker rammed up his arse#or the one who dies after gorging himself on strawberries and eel pie iirc#ok fine maybe i only remember the memorable daeths but you get the point#the six wives are what made henry viii significant is what i'm saying#via shitposts#six#six the musical#tudors#tudor queens#catherine of aragon#anne boleyn#jane seymour#anne of cleves#katherine howard#catherine parr#henry viii

While the trick-or-treating comic was very cute, I cannot imagine Vasco not being a little treat kinda guy
Are you telling me he doesn't randomly buy himself candy just for the dopamine and the child-like joy? That he doesn't indulge on halloween spirit and buy spooky candy just for him and Machete?? (who barely eats it but halloween spirit comes first, practically second)
.
#I actually thought about that for quite a while before choosing to go with a simple and neutral soda can#because yes I do think Vasco is a little treat kinda guy#but the treats he goes for probably aren't straight up candy#he's into hot chocolate and sweet coffee drinks#ice cream (particularly odd and seasonal flavors)#pastries and desserts probably#I can see him being a nutella enjoyer#and if he buys actual sweets I think he'd go for chocolate bars#(not like mars bars but thin flat sheets of chocolate that you break into smaller pieces)#(do those have a specific name in english or are they both just chocolate bars?)#none of the above are very easy to share unexpectedly with unfamiliar children#like I said in majority of Europe halloween isn't widely/officially celebrated and trick-or-treating isn't customary#families with young children teens and young adults might do halloween activities on smaller scale#but a childless couple in their thirties (and living in an apartment) is unlikely to have halloween candy in reserve methinks#Machete doesn't eat that many sugary things regularly#if Vasco is having something he probably goes along with it#but his health anxiety kind of affects what foods he deems acceptable and which ones should be avoided#which is ironic because modern Machete has a history of stress smoking#as a habit that's quite a bit worse for you than having an occasional ice cream sundae#I think he managed to quit when their relationship turned serious#answered#anonymous#modern au

Loki surveilling the skyline of New York from the top of Stark Tower and clocking that his favorite paired set of buildings are gone. sad
#everyone wants thor and loki to have visited earth a bunch of times and obviously they wouldn't be too invested in earth politics#but i think the concept of much time passing between visits should be taken advantage of#like what if one of them missed seeing the statue of liberty on their past 3 visits and now that's 'suddenly' a famous historic landmark#Loki like wow I sure hope that restaurant in the Soviet Union is still around!#and Natasha's head whips around so fast like you mean Russia or one of the surrounding countries that used to be part of the USSR#Loki: uhm. well. what's the difference#Natasha: here is a map of the countries does this help#Loki: it does not help but thank you for trying#Thor: what do you mean Rome is gone???? Rome was HUGE?????#Tony: well it's been a few centuries since then Europe is very different now#Thor: (visibly distressed) so the the sweet effeminate men enjoy the streets no more??#Tony: ...I don't keep track of foreign border laws about that#Thor shows up after 3 years and there's a new president and he's very confused through the entire meeting#brodinsons being so detached from the political scene but being so used to realm politics they come to correct conclusions about things#even though the timeline and how long things stay the same on midgard still messes with them#Loki: at least Egypt is still around#Thor: China also#Brodinsons visiting New Zealand(Aotearoa)/Australia/various British mandate islands before the British formally showed up#returning 2 centuries later and 'the gene pool has altered drastically' 'must've been a war'#well it's either that or since Asgard seems spared of colorism they treat all humans as the same and don't notice. which might be worse#on the colonisation and liberation side of things

Can I have a hug
#side effect of slowly getting better is I now have to work out how to have a life after when it feels like I ruined everything#I know I didn’t and my illness would’ve done this eventually but it feels like it cause my degree is worthless now#can’t do any of the jobs that I was going to do anymore#can’t do most entry jobs#can’t do retail or food service or most peoples first jobs#don’t really have irl friends anymore#I’m just. ugh.#my parents said they’d pay for me to go to college again so I can get a degree that works for remote jobs with higher pay than my original#field. which isn’t hard bc that pay was gonna be 20k a year for like six years lmao#and I did stumble across some resources for which doctors can treat my illnesses in Europe so I could try to use it as a way to finally#fucking leave this country but idek how I’d go about getting accepted to a university anywhere if I already have a degree that just doesn’t#work for me anymore#and I’m sad that I can’t do the career I poured my soul into for so long#and I miss my friends and feeling confident#I’m glad I’m getting healthier enough to think about after but I’m terrified and exhausted just thinking about working out how to find what#comes next and what’s possible#and I’m just really really sad#and I’m scared of getting too hopeful about anything#I really miss Austria and people have said I’d really like Germany and I’d love to move but I’m scared I’ll research and find nothing

... I'm sorry ... what?????????????????????????
(The whole thread started with the guy complaining about people "now" calling Kyiv ... Kyiv - and not Kiev.)
Also, a new word for us dropped: Hitlerites.
#“Ukrainians treat jews bad”#...you mean the same Ukrainians who have one of the largest jewsih communities in europe in their country buddy#the ones who elected a jewish president buddy#who won with a big majority buddy#in a landslide win buddy#the same jews who can celebrate their holidays openly buddy#who are even invited to the Presidential place and they post about it buddy#and no one giving a fuck buddy#THESE UKRAINIANS BUDDY#and here my friends we see what happens if you think fiction is reality#kyiv is the Yiddish word for kyiv I AM SCREAMING

actually taking the time to read through what would be considered the antagonist's motives in eroica, only to find out theyre more sympathetic than the main characters (major specifically) will ever be. you mean this nato engineer became so moved by the pope he stole US secrets and ran away??? by all means let me shake the mans hands
#i love it as much as the next guy but fewl is deeply deeply conservative#it is way more on the side of the major than eroica's#that meaning natos side than the side of a gay man#like it goes beyond the kgb plots. anybody who disagrees with nato or the cia or even the sis in fewl is considered an antagonist#which is fine. but they are not given a sliver of sympathy from the writer#like its been a while but in emperor waltz theres the character of the cia officer who literally had a breakdown and leaked state secrets#and hes just treated as a crazy man. theres no explaining his motives other than that hes a nuisance to the major and nato#but overall what im tryna say is that eroica never was 'progressive' ESPECIALLY by our standards#an it feels wrong 2 me so sell it as anything more than 'oh theres a couple gay characters and a fun dynamic'#cus i feel it leads to overlooking things like these#which are quite interesting to me. like taking a glimpse into how the world beyond europe and the us perceived nato#considering most spy stories are from those places#and um yeah it sucks. even i feel bad reading it sometimes!#but its part of it; i like what i like#either way what bliss#led zeppelin shoujo yaoi manga tag

So i just got to know charles used to like Palestinian support posts for pst couple of years until recent events and now he’s seen with that noah. I do t even understand whats charles got to do with that literal bitchass child.
Yeah that was odd, i've seen people saying because Ferrari's top people are supporting Israel so he was forced to unfollow the page, for why he would hang out with that guy i don't know
Disclaimer: i don't want to assume things but Charles is always been sketchy with these subjects (ex the BLM not kneel and all of that bullshit excuse) so who knows
I honestly don't want to open the discussion about who supports what in f1, i just hope them, me, you everyone are just getting informations and context about the situation so we can all form our opinion on facts and not propaganda
#obviously it's kinda hard to get a real grasp on the situation especially from wester media if i had to listen how things are being treated#by italian media is honestly appalling#obviously all these deaths are wrong and sad to see but the way europe is now shining a light on it with out the historical context is very#disheartening and for myself i'm just trying to gather news and learn more about what has always happened there#you can be sad for israelian people getting killed but brushing aside all the palestinians endured for decades because of israel gov is#revising history#ask time#because it might get asked ->#charles never kneeling is and will always be something that irks me so much especially his excuse#he could have learn on his own or he could have asked#this was not on ferrari saying do not kneel since seb was clearly doing it so he should have done better

looking at the notes of that last poll was a mistake
#shay speaks#something something the concept of race is actually incredibly useless in these types of contexts because its way more complicated#than people would like to believe it is. and its going to be different depending on a lot of factors#including where someone lives and what types of prejudices are expressed there#ie someone can look white (like the saami people of northern europe) to an american but be treated as not white by the people in their hom#e countries.#also biological race isnt a thing and the perpetuation of it as a concept within medical and political spheres is actively perpetuating#racism and the enforcement of social race and to dismantle the race concept we still have a long way to go#anyway i think race as a concept is fucking bullshit so i wouldnt vote in that poll anyway (i didnt lmao bc its complicated)#is it something that affects people? absolutely racism is real and a systemic problem that is built on the race concept#and in order to get to the root of the problem we have to essentially eliminate that concept of race in the first place which is. a long lo#g way off and probably wont happen in our lifetimes but we can work towards that end goal#<- all of this is not even close to my entire thoughts on this but you cannot just say its an easy yes or no question#bc while i am white enough people wont think much of me until i mention being indigenous#and then the treatment entirely flips because now people have a whole bunch of other thoughts on my appearance

im not from the us but everytime i see "this country deserves the worst" i feel like pointing to how the us military treated foreign countries and how the internet treats civilians from places like russia or nk and going "im sorry... yall want this?"
#people on tumblr: dont treat people from bad countries like shit 😊 theyre not in control of their govt's actions 😊#also people on tumblr: except the us 😡 fuck everyone from the us 😡#like mate... ur doing that! and its worse bc yes a lot of the criticism comes from#europe the uk and australia#but what ive noticed is a lot of this comes from people who LIVE IN THE US#caps tw#like bruh you LIVE HERE#and you want this country to get 'the worst'?

non-muslims with no muslim family or friends be fucking normal abt 9/11 challenge
#txt#i ranted abt this in our server but like.#the fact that people joke abt 9/11 as if it didnt impact the way muslim people are treated worldwide is very. raises eyebrow#like sure i enjoy a 9/11 joke on occasion. but if you say 'happy 9/11' im like. ok well people did die.#and muslim people were subsequently largely treated as terrorists in a lot of countries. sure not necessarily by the govts.#but people's demeanor very largely reflected that thought process.#Why do you think muslims largely stick together in countries where islam isnt the main religion/in religion neutral countries.#idk. what do i know though. only half of my family is muslim & im white passing & living in europe.

Do I attempt to salvage the thought I had about Fermet printing Fermetes 2+ hours ago into a post at 10:23 PM or do I salvage the 1883 words of a .md file I apparently wrote before the two hours of helping someone assemble monitor stand + cable management session began into some droll post for tomorrow?
#Baccano! Light Novel Spoilers#personal#it's probably the latter#I finally sat back down after the two hours and attempted to write said pithy post#but my already sleep-deprived brain is not having it.#*droll not pithy#*blatantly terribly written not droll#It's not even a particularly interesting or deep thought but the primordial instinct within me telling me my B! knowledge is hopelessly#wrong and that I should factcheck some of this is holding it back#(but seriously though. Fermet hive mind supervising SAMPLE branches across Europe and NA ...#(...these not quite carbon copy Fermets but /very/alike Fermets just. supervising the multi-continent perpetuation of#~child torture cult~#(hm. yes. how will these SAMPLE seeds sprout in America. I know. I shall water them personally but allow them to blossom idiosyncracies)#(I'm not saying that's what Fermet did. I'm just asking you to imagine hive!Fermet in Fermet-progeny homunculi cultivating their culty crops#simultaneously across two continents minimum - three actually (Asia via Japan) - for however many years (???decs???) it's been since#Fermet cottoned on to whatever constituted proto hivemind alchemy#Wow it's easier to write and post things to Tumblr in the sweet sweet informal casual atmosphere of tags#and not the formal 'wuh woh your content may be treated seriously' posts themselves.This doesn't count as a post...#(Really definitely not saying that. Nothing I say in these tags counts! Take this flourish on top of the cartoon evil and be put out.)#Looks like those 1883 words also referenced Huey hive mind
