I cannot believe the canon bkdk dynamic though.
Katsuki, completely whipped, 100% on board to spend the rest of his life with Izuku, living the dream as heroes.
Izuku, completely oblivious to his own worth, oblivious to how Katsuki really feels about him now, just so oblivious to it all.
#bkdk#bakudeku#straight out of a fanfic actually#I keep thinking about the ‘one fell first but the other fell harder’ dynamic#and a lot of people say Kats fell first so Izuku fell harder#but I gotta say it feels like the reverse#feels like Izuku fell first#ages ago#when they were kids#he’s just really good at compartmentalizing it#not thinking about it because it’s not possible#there’s no way his symbol of victory would ever feel anything even close to live for a useles deku like him so it’s no use even hoping#meanwhile Katsuki flipped a switch and went from 0 to 100 in a heartbeat#izuku left UA to be a vigilante and it put everything into perspective for Katsuki#and from then on he was a complete goner#thinking about Izuku constantly#thinking about him as he died#jump starting his own heart to come back and find Izuku#propelling himself across the country just to give Izuku one last push#planning to be with him for the rest of their lives#being distraught that Izuku lost his quirk again#listen#izuku fell first. Kats fell harder

Do You Understand.

One of the probable reasons as to why Kaeya didn't arrive on time for Crepus and Diluc when they were attacked was because he, and the knights with him, had no vision, and thus, cannot use a teleport waypoint.
Him receiving his cryo vision when he was supposed to get scorched by Diluc was genuinely the biggest slap to the face given to him by Celestia. It arrived just in time to save HIM.
Even now, the vision only heals and shields him alone as a manifestation of his desire to keep living from that fight... but he can't use it to help others.
#ngl this description was a shock to see purely coz wtf were inazuma vision bearers doing lmao#unless they didnt want to leave their countrymen alone while the decree was still up#kaeya#kaeya alberich#yeah idk what else to say about it other than the fact that Kaeya's vision is the biggest middle finger from celestia#celestia: lol f this kid specifically. he did nothing wrong but his fam sure did#1 more thing but do they have to approach a teleport waypoint to use it?#im assuming they do purely coz they dont memorize where all the other waypoints are#ngl this opens up to other ideas like cyno tighnari and collei travelling instead of teleporting is coz nari hasnt been to mond#same with others taking a boat coz they havent encountered that waypoint yet#i guess that explains things for most inazuma vision bearers actually :O they havent left the nation so they cant unlock the other waypoints#wow i have a lot of thoughts here in the tags yet again. kaeyachi with the tags that can be a whole entire post instead.#right back to kaeyangst but seriously what a wicked timing. him receiving it too late to prevent everything#him also receiving it just in time to let him continue living his life full of lies...(his own words not mine)#did he start learning how to use it immediately? did he fear its usage because it meant celestia was watching him?#did he stare at it in betrayal? throw it off a cliff? hide it in his drawers?#so many thoughts hnghh

how Ratonhnhaké:ton’s noble but futile struggle with trying to make the US a truly free nation parallels his futile struggle of trying to convince his father to not be a racist colonialist scumbag
#you know how he was told to compromise everything he did. compromise with the patriots for owning slaves. compromise with haytham and his-#dictatorship plans. all he wanted was to make sure native folk kept living their lives how they wanted. and he just kept getting -#‘well we can’t ACTUALLY do that but you can help us do THIS and you’ll essentially get the same results’#and he did. and his tribe left their lands. america grew and kept growing. their plans for freedom weren’t meant for people like him.#but they have no issue using people like him to achieve it. just like in real life. colonial settler states would go nowhere without-#the help of the people they colonize.#txt#connor kenway#haytham kenway#assassin's creed#ac3#i want to make an in depth post of the compromise theme so bad.

not the biggest fan of how "society should be structured with basic care and regard for the germ theory of disease" is now apparently a fringe left position even to the fringe left, reserved for wokescolds and loony lefties who don't know when to let things go.
it is quite depressing to see that "maybe we shouldn't let large groups of people die to preventable illness" is, very much a lost battle at this point.
#juney.txt#I'm not gonna be able to go outside without a looming sense of dread and anxiety for probably the rest of my life i think.#good to see we've reached a party line of ''better things aren't possible'' though#glad we've finally unified on going out to brunch and going to see concerts and letting strangers spit directly into our mouths#hashtag back to normal#we've learned to live with covid!#and by that i mean we've learned to pretend it isn't there#while many of us . Don't Live. with covid#we live in hell. the material conditions for revolution will never arise in our lifetime#and even if they do they will be squandered in the name of the status quo#we will compromise on everything and build a world absolutely no better than we left it#how fucking bleak

idk i do like hearing peoples perspectives and arguments about transfeminism, but i believe what i believe about it because the arguments for it are effective and the evidence we have supports their conclusions. yea they also help me conceptualize events in my life through a transfeminist lens but that is what theoretical frameworks are For, they begin with the evidence and describe the experience.
i think semantic arguments and talk of empty unity and dismissing through sexualization are just as much tactics of argumentation and to me they're are highly ineffective in doing anything but making the people using them look good to an uninformed observer. its the reason we say a lot that some people here have a "vibes based politics" because it's clear from their arguments and rhetoric that they think of these arguments as a way to display an image rather than to actually have a discussion.
thats why im pissy and get upset and block people, they're just wasting peoples time for their own egos rather engaging with any of these concepts or acknowledging that what they know might not be totalizing. the desperation to have a perfect unsullied and intelligent image is why posts like mine pointing out a subtle dogwhistle will get backlash that amounts to telling me i'm making it up. i am communicating to them that there is a piece of knowledge that they might not have considered or even known is offensive to them so they reach for reactionary defenses instead of treating the trans woman in front of them like a person
#some of them are indeed fully bad faith actors#terfs and shit that are trying to infiltrate discourse and funnel conversions to their ideology#but there are a lot of people#even specifically transfems#who make these arguments because they are simple to make and easy to reach for and diffuse the need to face harsh realities#it's a safe bubble to live in to just inherently trust tme people#i wanna trust them#but just like anyone else who can use their place in societies hierarchies against you#you need to be away of the power they might be able to wield in case you need to defend yourself from it#lives have been Ruined from these discussions#i still see my sisters who were driven out to the street from losing their support networks begging for financial aid#or feeling too guilty to ask given how they want more attention to be going to gaza fundraisers#being aware of the danger is not panicking or thinking a group is ontologically evil#it is just a reality needed for safety as a trans woman#we all learn it sooner or later and everyone posting about transfeminism is trying to make that realization happen sooner#so we don't have to see our sisters suffer more#and see our brothers and siblings hurt themselves and each other to fit an ideology that is using them#the idea that these issues are brought up from personal grievance and not actual emotional care for others is just false#we aren't trying to call everything transmisogyny we are trying to show you that you are surrounded by it and can learn to fight against it#and it's scary and sad to see people reject it so much that they endanger themselves#ugh i'm rambling too much#i hope this doesn't bite me in the ass that i left all this in the tags

Politics vent, though not about specific politicians:
It is wild to have conversations about White Poverty in the US and the desperate straits in which conservative white bigots allegedly live with left-wing white people who have never ever been poor. It seems like they just can't process that creative/literary people like J and I could conceivably have grown up in actual for real poverty and ... idk, it feels very patronizing (and frustrating) at times.
#a left-wing friend of ours from a rich family was opining about the desperation of poor white bigots in... over simplified ways#and j and i were trying to explain it from the inside and she was just 'i know you were poor but i mean SUPER poor people like#ones living in falling apart double-wides with no way to fix them'#me: *blink*#j: ...elizabeth lived in a falling apart SINGLE-wide. i spent my childhood cleaning animal shit and making hay. i've been homeless.#me: and the single-wide was a step up in the world for us!#the idea of a double-wide as True Poverty is like the conversational equivalent of that awful appleby's song. like. wtf.#but you can just see this not sinking in at all with most leftists we know even though we are ourselves left-wing (or bc of it!)#i do think it's mostly bc we're artsy creative people and have generic pnw accents - pretty much everyone seems to assume#no one in their circles has any direct personal experience of poverty when they're opining about The Poor#when we're like 'it's not the poverty that creates bigotry it's the white supremacy. we lived in rural white poverty and it's very obvious'#it's like watching a website fail to load over and over#meanwhile one of my earliest memories is me tugging at my mother's clothes and anxiously asking 'are you sure we need that?'#she thinks i was 3 or 4 at the time#partly the autism but mostly the overwhelming consciousness of stretching everything as far as it could conceivably go#anghraine rants#us american blogging#cw classism#or something!!#cw politics#rl: bff

You will come home one day and realize that they took everything from you, even the ability to recognize yourself in the mirror.
You're just the abandoned shell of someone who was loved. All the people who loved you are dead.
#art#my art#ever vengeful#Eve#oc art#sorry need to rotate my oc again or i'd die#god.#for context ever vengeful lost most of their village; their brother & THEIR SPOUSE because of people hunting them in an apocalyptic setting#because post magic nuke everything went HORRIBLY WRONG#they used to be a person that sang. that hoped. that prepared food for parties. that believed all people had good in them#now they're a soldier trying by any means necessary to keep the small amount of home they have left safe-#and got whisked away from THAT to stop the timeline from collapsing#clinging to the small speck of goodness still in them after killing to survive#so they make me ill. just a little bit#the little guy with them in the second one is their chronal energy given a living form btw. they got messed up by time travel lol

it’s so telling that the ultra-wealthy are suddenly so worried about violence when it’s against a ceo but couldn’t be bothered by the hundreds of school shootings that have happened over the years
#i’m so glad that people are realizing that this isn’t a left v right thing#it’s everyone v the ultra wealthy#it’s actually devastating watching the people in my area (a very poor appalachian area) think that trump cares about them#because he doesn’t. he really truly doesn’t.#he does not care about all you working-class appalachian folks#OPEN UP YOUR EYES!!!!!! ‘violence is wrong and bad’ ‘violence never solved anything’ fuck you!!!! FUCK YOU!!!!!#what about gun violence in schools? and genocide in palestine? and police violence? why are these not problems?#why is a ceo’s life worth more than the lives of kindergarteners who got shot in their classrooms? or people from gaza who have literally#lost everything?#or black people who are victims of violence from the people who should be protecting them?#‘violence never solved anything’ is bullshit.#stonewall and like. the fucking french revolution. for example#why is violence so terrible only if it’s against a rich white man?#ceo shooting#united healthcare#us politics#us news#tw school shooting#tw shooting

Someone totaled my car today and I do not like being in insurance limbo
#i did all the stuff i was supposed to but im gonna call my insurance again tonorrow just to double check#i had a green light and someone left turned into me like super late#like idk how they thought they could make that turn#but my airbags all went off and my hood was a mess so i think my car is fully toast#siiiigh#:(#i dont want to have to buy a new car......#i just moved out too so dealing with this + rent + living expenses is not ideal#i wish ppl knew how to fucking drive and i still had my car.#im trying to be zen and cool about this and just go well getting mad wont solve the problem but like#if people paid attention while they were driving then i wouldnt be out a car having to use a sick day tomorrow#and i wouldnt have to probably spend more than what i get from insurance on whatever my new car will cost#and i wouldnt be having to deal with insurance and getting rides places and hopefully getting a rental car#so maybe i can be a little mad for a while and get upset for myself for once#i just roll over and accept everything all the time and while intentional apathy has gotten me this far#maybe i shouldnt cling to it forever

salvaged from the office fire in 1998
#my art#the x files#dana scully#fox mulder#alex krycek#i was talking about this on twitter yesterday but#i have a LOTTTTTT a lot of thought about this part of season two#mainly because i think that while scully probably realized she was never going to find peace ever again after emily#i do believe that the last time mulder ever thought everything would be okay was right before scully’s abduction#which is also kind of why i think mulder was closer to killing himself in ascension than in gethsemane#at the end of season four mulder is kind of resigned to his and scully’s lives unravelling#he’s more suspicious and slower to trust then he ever was#while ascension was the first time he was like. Oh okay. It’s over for us forever and ever#and the fact that he was still open and still kind of okay before that just kind of makes it worse#that he was just betrayed and left hanging and lost everyone he thought he had in one fell swoop#ascension jades the fuck out of him and you can see it. like through the whole series there are threads of it#his tendency to rely on skinner regresses for a while. he becomes even less functional when scully is gone.#he has far less patience for his informants and he refuses to rely on anyone the way he tried to on krycek#like it’s just. such an obvious shift in his character that you can tell his mindset about his and scully’s life has changed#and that’s a huge part of the show’s tragedy i think. there is no peace. there is no rest. it’s never going to be okay
