Caitlyn and vi being overshadowed by the hypothetical het ship and the nonexistent white man ship is. As unfortunate as it is predictable

#arcane #arcane spoilers #arcane critical #even when we win. we lose #i know amanda lost a lot of writing power in s2 but man #the major shift in who got attention is unreal #i thought arcane was a show about family dynamics and the relationship between two sisters during a war #but turns out its about two guys that worked together and a fanfic about a situation that never happened #to be clear i wouldnt mind either if so much time hadnt been taken away from the main plot to do them #but s2 is like 10% actual relevant plot and 90% fanservice for jinx and viktor stans #and the writers ignoring how important vi was to both powder and ekko is. criminal #she was a big sibling to both of them #like essentially a parent to them #why were they so utterly unphased about her dying in that au

At your side [End of Season 2]

[First] Prev <–-> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wei wuxian #lan wangji #wen ning #jin ling #wen qing #jiang yanli #a-yuan #It may have taken a year but we did it! The end of season 2!!!#(Granted: this season was nearly twice the length of season one.)#It's been a really fantastic season to draw for. So many iconic moments! It was a lot of work but I had a blast B*)#I also enjoyed experimenting more and more with my comic style. I'm growing as a comic artist bit by bit!#There is even a little bit of shadowing in this one for next season. As a treat. All the fun (and not heart breaking) scenes to come!#Comic talk time: Recently saw 12 angry men for first time and I love the coincidence of the themes aligning here.#They both touch upon the horror of judicial systems - in which the most persuasive argument wins and the truth is a nuisance.#All it takes is one person to stand against the crowd and say 'I do not know what is true. And that is reasonable doubt enough.'#When the majority is for condemning someone guilty - that in itself is persuasive enough.#One will set their mind to what the 'truth' is and refuse to see it any other way. That their perspective is the only correct one.#No one is born with a monopoly on the truth.#Everyone has biases and agendas. Some care not for the outcome - only that they can be on the convenient side.#Lan Wangji is putting everything on the line to say 'I'm not going to go with the majority vote.'#And that is a huge deal in a story that is so politically focused as MDZS is. Everything is a careful chess move to these sects -#and to not play the game is basically sacrificing everything you are and your families name. For some it is unthinkable.#And there is no doubt in LWJ's mind. He would stand there and lose everything if it means upholding justice.#More importantly - these two have each other's backs. The bond is unbreakable. This is the most ride or die I have seen two people be.

Uploading all my Tomgreg art at once from the past few week before season 4 hits, who knows in what kind of mental state i'm gonna be once it does :')

#tomgreg #succession #dont even talk to me i started watching this show when i had nothing to do at work and now i watch it with averiel my good friend averiel #and we are going to watch s4 together and i feel physically ill from bein so excited #so ya thats what ive been up to... anyway. i love these idiots they desever nothing but the worst (affectionate)#im also a tomshiv lover btw. im the one who yells 'THIS IS HOW TOMSHIV CAN STILL WIN' while they are actively losing on screen #thats the kind of person i am #dont look at me (lying on the floor)#okay i was not going to say stuff in the tags and let the art speak for itself but i NEED to point out details in the wine Painting..#i put a lot of work into that one. thinly veiled metaphors and symbolism yknow..#greg is gripping the stem of the wine glass with his full fist. tom and greg are dressed in the same outfit (sock garters included)#greg look appalled but he is not doing anything about the spill. tom is fondly pouring greg more and more wine. he is doing him a favor #i colored the red wine the same way i would color blood :) oh and tom is not really touching greg #only holding the chair in place. greg is making himself look smaller than he is like usual #oh and @ the person who said that it's the inverse of the tom and nate scene i love the way you think. i did not think of that before #but god. yeah. i actually thought about the scene change from when roman uhh.. christens his office in s1. the one with the coffee machine #i always go insane at that cut. this is not exactly the same since it's more.. about emotions but yknow.. it can be.. the same...

Being a Loumander while also being a Loustat endgame truther while also being a Devils Minion addict WHILE ALSO being an Armandstat enthusiast. I literally can’t lose. I bask in the excess of my riches daily.

#don’t even get me started when we get human Lestat and nicki onscreen for the first time #I didn’t include Danlou in this because that’s only for truly seasoned souls #I win even when I lose it’s crazy #iwtv #the only downside is having to read everyone’s piss poor analysis about the ships they hate #louis de pointe du lac #lestat de lioncourt #armand #daniel molloy #Loumand #loustat #devils minion #lesmand #armandstat

I just remembered that up until 5th grade, all of the sports teams I was in weren't separated by gender. I played basketball and baseball with boys. And we did just fine.

It wasn't until 6th grade when they segregated it by gender. It didn't make sense to me. I was now in softball instead of baseball, because "softball is for girls" and "baseball is for boys" (which confused me bc my dad was on an adult softball team).

Now, my brother's all-male team didn't win a single game. My all-girls team won every single one.

They presented the boys' team with this HUGE trophy, and if you wanted replicas of it, they were $30 each.

My team was presented with a very small trophy. Extras were $5.

That's when I decided gender-segregated sports were bullshit.

#my mom went off on my brother's coach for that #said that it wasn't fair that my brother's team got to celebrate more than us despite actually winning #(it was through the same sports program)#she said she wasn't gonna pay $30 for a trophy whenever he was a horrible coach #bc the boys he had when they were on my team with my coach did just fine #their coach was this horrible egotistical guy who would scream at tbem for not doing good enough #when he didnt even KNOW HOW TO PLAY and was just there bc his kid was praying #my coach was this cool ass dad that was very calm and gentle with us #the coach was like ''oh so you don't think your son deserves to celebrate?''#my mom was like ''he should but he needs to learn that he can't be rewarded for losing while #my daughter is barely rewarded for winning and i don't want to teach him that gender inequality is okay''#(my mom is cool af sometimes)#we both quit playing after that

[Zac] was just trying to tell me to be happy with the win, and I appreciate that about him. Because I can get lost in, just like everybody can, you get lost in the adversity of the season. You can't take winning for granted and I've tried to get better at that.

#important characterization notes #i do agree that they asked wayyyyyyyy too many questions about the outburst (if you can call it that)#and like....one question about the browns lol #but! i did think this was very interesting #because like. all zac was trying to do was be like 'chill out. we won. be happy!' and joe responding #FUCK THAT IT'S FUCKING EMBARRASSING!!! 😡😡😡#is precious to me #this lil perfectionist. never happy with just winning.#even in a season where those have been exceedingly rare #just like the raiders game! (and i do think it was interesting that he said he can let himself have these outbursts #when they have the game in hand. but they should be blowing out their opponents #like the raiders like the titans. but they aren't. but he feels comfortable anyway.)#verrrrrrry interesting #so calculated even when he seems to be 'losing it'#and then to tie it back to joe'marr. because of course. it's me.#thinking back to that ravens post-game insta live that ja'marr had #of joe apologizing for playing like shit (and not focusing on the fact that they. you know. won the division for 2 years in a row)#and ja'marr assures him he's good and all but doesn't tell him to just be happy #he tells him yeah. you did fuck up on some stuff. but you're good. you're good.#i dunno. ja'marr noted joe handler! versus how zac handled it lol #(also joe emphasizing that he didn't want the yelling all the time in your face coach.)#(let's not forget he dealt with that already with urban lol)#and even in this response saying that he appreciated what zac was doing #ANYWAY just rambling at this point #joe burrow #zac taylor #cincinnati bengals

is it actually statistically possible for me to be responsible for changing the course of a poll with over 200k final votes I gegnuinely don't care bitch!!!! NOBODY pulled as hard as me in that race okay. I'm claiming that shit like reigen and the slit-mouthed woman.

#undertale #sanssweep #we were at 45%. 45!!!!! people were joking in the replies. about years of seeing glowing blue dicks. but that didn't matter bc it wasn't #about having a fair fight it was about the bit of reigen winning #when they started to point out the even funnier bit of reigen losing? that was the turnabout of the entire tournament #that was ME!!!!!! i shouted that shit from the ROOFTOPS #''the perfect three story arc for the perfect joke'' they were quoting ME!!!!#it wasn't about rallying for fresh votes although i did that too on this side of the battlefield.#it was about convincing the ones who would've voted reigen #to vote sans instead because it would've been funnier. THAT WAS ME #mp100

“My letters to Rhaenyra has there been any answer?”

“In retribution for the death of her son”

Mirroring Alicent in the sept with Rhaenyra at Luke’s pyre.

“Rhaenyra is a CUNNING SPIDER. Long ago she DREW Alicent into her WEB, INTOXICATED her.”

“She holds love for our enemy”

Rhaenicent as always stays 🔛🔝

as a true geto hater it brings me immense joy to remember that he got packed up by a suicidal anxious loser w/ the power of true love who hadn't even learned his own cursed technique yet and had been studying jujutsu for less than a year

#honestly getting packed up by yuuta pre or post-ct is so embarrassing bc u let a 5'9 loser boy put you in the ground? GET REAL #this isn't yuuta slander btw its just like. he's such a loser its unfathomable to me yk. like i love him so bad his scary dog privileges #are gone. like wdym the greatest kindest most anxious dude of all time killed you? you sound like the boy who cried wolf #was he even 5'9 in jjk 0 he honestly looked about 5'7 at best #how i feel when i see yuuta win a fight is how i feel when i see naruto win a fight yk #like that's my man ofc he won but also ... thats my man and i know him so how did u lose lol get ratioed #like either (a) how bad did u fumble or (b) what did u do to piss him off damn #anyway real talk why was geto a special grade... seems like gege was glazing to me imo #like we were just supposed to accept that eating curses and controlling them is special grade activity like.... ok.........#fraud watch for life im afraid
