Nico and Percy's dynamic through the series is eternally funny to me, because it's just. like.

Percy's having a constant mental struggle between his fatal flaw of loyalty with a promise he made to Bianca to protect Nico, versus his Big 3 kid desire to maim other Big 3 kids / Poseidon descendant urge to totally maim Nico specifically. He hates Nico so so much. He thinks Nico's annoying and weird at best, and creepy/sketchy when he's older. The only positive thoughts Percy has towards Nico are "He's Bianca's brother and Bianca was my friend and I owe her/He's Hazel's brother and Hazel is my friend and would kill me if I was mean to him," "He's a powerful asset and useful ally (if questionable)," and "He's kinda pathetic and I feel maybe a little bad about it." Percy has multiple occasions throughout the series where he strongly considers - and on one occasionally actually goes through with - throttling Nico.

Meanwhile, Nico is following around Percy like a lost puppy. He explicitly can never bring himself to even dislike anything about Percy no matter how hard he tries. He has a whole bit in BoO where he's mentally going "UGH he's so stupid BUT IT'S ENDEARING HOW DARE HE." He's totally smitten. He's making deals with his dad for Percy. He's making convoluted plans to help Percy stand a chance against Kronos. During the entirety of BoTL it's like he's playing tsundere - "I'm helping NOT PERCY SPECIFICALLY with this quest! Me helping Percy would be SILLY because I DEFINITELY HATE HIM." Then he proceeds to show up to Percy's birthday party to basically ask him on a weird date and spend the entire next book scrambling around trying to help him or protect him or impress him. And Percy could not give less of a shit.

Just. That dynamic is so funny to me. Percy is the founder of the Nico Protection Club in that he's the one they're all protecting Nico from and meanwhile Nico is throwing himself at Percy to the point where the literal god of gay love calls him out on it.

How do we feel about Beach wear Noritoshi....

Everyone thinks he'd go covered head to toe wearing those wet suits divers use, but no. Noritoshi isn't the type to want to attract attention to himself when it's not needed, so he'd try to blend in. Emphasis on try.

He's the guy wearing a covering or some shit. I think you'd have to fight him to wear a translucent one. (if you splash him with water, you'll acheive the same effect thoughahahaha) even though it's a beach, he's trying to find an appropriate way to cover up, hes just like that. yes to sunscreen ofc. I can see him in a sun hat, but it's not his.. maybe he took it from one of the girls

HIS HAIR WOULD BE UP BC ITD BE TOO HOT AND THE SUN HAT WOULD HELP HIM FROM GETTING OVERHEATED H.H....H IS FACE WOULD BE FLUSHED BC OF THE HEAT AND. AND. AND.. he's like the beach babe on the shore, soaking up the sun and reading a book or smth. if you splash him with water, i can see him trying to get you back. then boom bam, hes in the water with everyone else.

OH FUCK that's even IF he goes to the beach. it's like seeing God in the flesh, idk man I'd go blind........... hed probably come along when he realizes theres hot people at the beach. he cant have you looking at people in that state, hold on hes going. give him five minutes..!

[untied covering version under the cut. like his booefjehsaf are out aha.]

Do you think Clyde lovers are gonna match the energy from the first round?

I hope so.

That loser deserves we world with no effort from his behalf.

[maydaysmadness]

Watching She-Ra and the Princesses of Power for the first time and I think one of the things that gets me the most is Hordak and Entrapta's relationship, idk if it's romantic but regardless.

She's showing the dude actual understanding as a person.

Making him him feel like more than just a failure.

He's more than just the failed clone of Horde Prime, and he's seeing someone else as more than just a tool.

He finally made, at the very least, a real, genuine friend.

Hell Entrapta was even willing to forgo doing SCIENCE IMMEDIATELY because she wanted to spend more time with him.

When the portal was finally finished he didn't even put it on himself, he knew it was all her, and he could admit it.

He wanted her to see their crowning achievement.

Catra and her bold faced lie.

That face broke me.

Just like that lie broke him.

if tk isn’t shown doing at least one (1) jewish wedding tradition when he marries carlos then what is even the fucking point

[oldguardleatherdog]

let me start by saying, I'm okay to agree to disagree on this, and I respect you greatly as my queer elder. I hesitate to even send this because I don't think this cause is worth dogpiling (and not even the fun way) on anyone against and , like , I will continue to follow and admire you as a mutual who has been through a lot of the hell that I'm going through right now and got to a place I want to someday be. (for context, I am currently housing & food insecure and am trying to live in a queer-accepting city)

Posting will never be praxis, you are my brother in arms no matter what you call trump or cops or whatever. There are some fat liberation blogs that take issue with calling cops "pigs" for a lot of the reasons I bristle at calling Trump a fatass, and like, if someone is actively fighting cops who can and will actively hurt me and my found family, I don't care what names they shout while doing it. So I see where you are coming from and I'm glad you fight for me. I fight for us too, in what little ways I can while I keep me and my found family afloat. I do better work in the community just by existing around people as a living breathing transgender than I could do in a million posts on this website.

I do think that this is a valuable conversation to have, though, even though you are completely right that this is a trivial thing and not at all the bigger, more real issue at hand. I think it's still important, on online platforms such as this, to talk about how we refer to the other people on this planet.

Think about why you didn't call Trump a "retard". You certainly could have, it doesn't *not* apply to some of his behavior. I know people of our generations once used that word a lot, and we don't anymore. Why and when did we change that? I honestly don't remember. For me, my aunt was medically classified as "retarded" and she was the best person I'd ever met, so I decided that word shouldn't mean bad things. The first time I ever hit someone was over them using that word in a derogative way. it wasn't about "mental illness positivity" it was about humanizing the people that word has been used against - people who have been stigmatized and oppressed with that word.

Right now, hopefully, the same thing is happening to the word "obese". Fat people are less likely to be hired, granted loans or secure housing. they can be kicked out of airplanes and fired from their jobs because of their body size. There have been laws proposed to take fat children away from their parents and "treatments" proposed to wire children's jaws shut and starve them to make them thinner. They are often medically mistreated and misdiagnosed. I once went to a doctor with an ear infection and instead of antibiotics, he prescribed me *bariatric surgery.* I have been refused transgender top-surgery because of my BMI, which keeps me at a passively higher risk for self-injury and worse.

I do not care about body positivity. Honestly, between being fat, trans, and poor, I'm at a point where I've given up on ever feeling good about my body again. All I care about is getting jobs and meds and keeping a roof over my family's head and food on our table. Normalizing the idea that fat is a bad thing that anyone can change continues that stigma. When you use Fat as an insult, you are saying fat=bad. Fat is a neutral thing that some bodies can be, like short or tall or lean. The revolution needs to be intersectional, and body size is another axis of oppression that needs to be acknowledged, just like sexuality, gender, race, class, disability, etc.

If you've gotten this far, thank you for hearing me out. I'm sorry that others are just performatively parroting the same things over and over. Civility is bullshit, and if you still want to use body shaming as one of the ways you fight against bigotry, it doesn't really matter to me. Just as long as you acknowledge anti-fat bias as part of that bigotry too.

Thank you for writing and sharing your life experiences with me, and for your solidarity as well. You're striving to make your way as part of a despised minority in a world that's turned unspeakably harsh toward you in an aggressively mean way seemingly overnight, and I admire you for the life you have lived, for your courage and perseverance during this difficult time where resources are scant and your housing and food security is uncertain at best.

(FWIW, after I was bombed out of my Lower Manhattan home on September 11th, my income went from six figures down to nothing overnight, and I was homeless and destitute for years. Twenty years ago, I was where you are now, and I can tell you that what you're enduring today will not last forever, that there is light and hope and blessing in your future, that you're not as alone as you might think, that you must never give up.)

What more can I do to make the point that "fat" has nothing to do with this? As I've said, I grew up obese, and it wasn't until I enlisted in the Army at age 17 that I was able to free myself from my violent and abusive family and unlock the potential of the body that had been hidden under layers of fat and shame all my life. I know that my path is not for everybody, that many others are not so fortunate, and I ceased long ago to think that fat equals bad or lack of character or any other pejorative attitude that society has attached to it for generations. I hope I've made that clear and that you take my word as truth.

I am not saying "let's fat-shame Donald Trump to make him feel bad." I am saying that I'm deeply troubled by the LGBTQ+ community prioritizing hurt feelings over the very real damage that's being done to us right now all over the country by Trump, his minions, his proxies, and his cult of bloodthirsty followers and worshippers. Trump's accomplices in Congress and state legislatures and Moms For Liberty are taking over school boards all over the country, banning books and emptying library shelves and harassing teachers and librarians to the point where they're being run out of town, where the State of Missouri has defunded its entire public library system rather than follow a court order to restore books banned just for featuring LGBTQ+ characters.

DeSantis and Abbott have put in place policies that are unspeakably brutal, that are forcing trans people in Florida to slowly and brutally revert to their pre-transition state, that have given health care providers in Florida the right to deny treatment to you and me and all LGBTQ+ people because we are gay, lesbian, non-binary, trans... but God forbid we should call Trump mean names!

We've seen what happens when we buy into the "when they go low, we go high" fantasy pipe dream. This is not the way the world works, it has never been, and we need to put this loser idea in the trash bin where it belongs once and for all.

We're being attacked and harmed in unspeakable ways that are happening now. This is not theoretical or hypothetical. It's happening to us, to those we love, this minute and every minute of every day. And worse is in the pipeline - they're writing laws that will place us under virtual house arrest, that will regulate where we're allowed to go in our own cities and towns, when we're allowed to be seen in public, when and where we can shop, how we're allowed to dress, even what we're allowed to say and SING, for Christ's sake!

And I'm supposed to be concerned about some minuscule hypothetical percentage of my own people being OFFENDED because I'm somehow being insensitive and violating some trivial picayune social justice warrior philosophy, because there's a possibility of some fragile flower taking it personally, and that I should shut my mouth and let the MAGA nutjobs run roughshod over us? Oh, come let Daddy kiss it! while our brothers and sisters are suffering in real time. Sickening.

Anyone who has a problem with my stance doesn't have to follow me or emulate my proven effective tactics as an activist with 37 years of successfully defending our rights under my belt if they're so dainty and delicate and easily bruised. Everyone else that sees this for the strawman bullshit it is, get ready to hit the streets with bullhorns and whistles once again. We've got work to do.

Your arguments are strong and well-reasoned, and I accept and acknowledge everything you're saying. We can disagree on this, certainly, and still work together to turn back the progress that the MAGAs are making, restore our rights, and protect ourselves and each other. But that will require the snowflake contingent among us to get their collective head out of their collective ass, stop whining, and get with the damn program. Calling me names and telling me I'm being a bad gay activist is a waste of time and energy that should be spent fighting the fascists and the haters who are out to kill us.

And to you, my friend and fellow traveler with a radiantly beautiful soul and spirit, I urge you to hang in there, to keep the faith, to keep caring about life, to work with me to secure our own future and the future of our kind. I send to you my very best wishes, energy, and prayers that you will find your way to a place of health, security, stability, and love for yourself and for this precious community to whom we've both dedicated our lives, who mean the world to us.

Yours In Service, Animal J. Smith

I’m keeping it very ✨ we will persist ✨ over on the other account and for the sake of others mental health I don’t want to scream into the void over there so just real quick let me-

This country HATES us. They hate us so passionately they’ll vote a racist, bigoted extremist into office not only once, but twice. This country doesn’t see POC, LGBTQIA+, or people who identify as female as human beings, but as subjects to be ruled over in a plutocracy. This country chooses to support a rapist, over a woman. They make rules for our bodies and strip us of our autonomy. They HATE us. They HATE us all. They always have.

And white women don’t even see themselves as humans either. They see themselves as subservient to their all knowing husbands. Trash.

What do you think is going to happen when a man’s sexual partner gets pregnant with an unwanted pregnancy, with no options for termination? You think that woman will be safe?

DT isn’t as dumb as everyone thinks. He sowed enough doubt and distrust, latched onto the deep rooted racism in this country and used it to dog whistle himself to the top. He turned more than half of this country away from education, science, even rational thought. It’s not even a question of politics anymore. It’s radicalization.

‘Love is painful, and it hurts you in all the wrong ways. I hope you’ll never know love’.

It’s the last words he remembers his mother told him before he found her cold in bed two weeks after. And then it was a mess of faces and voices, unfamiliar hands passing him around like some sort of sold goods until eventually he ended up surrounded by other children and adults in orphanage.

Thinking about it now, he doesn’t really remember much of his childhood - only that it was lonely and divided of affections family members shared. He might’ve been ten years old, but he still understood that it wasn’t normal when his mother walked ahead of him and didn’t make sure if he followed her at all, like he didn’t even existed. It absolutely wasn’t normal especially when he saw other children being carried or hugged by their parents, being paid attention to. He wouldn’t say his family was abusive - it’s hard to tell when your entire family is just your mother, who you can’t really compare with anyone else. From what she shared to him once when they were having a dinner, is that their bloodline is cursed, and that death follows them around, stalks them from generation to generation, taking them at their prime, only leaving behind a fruit of short lived love.

After that she stared at him for a minute and started to weep.

She never loved him like a mother would love her child, wholeheartedly and selflessly. She did, however, cared about him to some degree, since she did provide for him and raised him. Thinking back to it, her final words were probably the last act of her care. An advice, a warning, born from experience, since she felt death breathing down her neck.

Woo Jin-Chul wasn’t loved, never knew proper love, but his ten years old heart ached when his cold unmoving mother never opened her eyes.

And now, as an adult, he’s terrified of how much he resembles his mother, of how much he’s her. The way he cares about certain people but doesn’t love them. And for those he doesn’t care, he feels nothing. It’s as simple as that and this detachment terrifies him, makes something in him conflicted, makes his skin crawl, makes his own mind feel trapped in flesh of this body. There’s something fundamentally wrong about him, even if Go Gun-Hee - and this man is closest Jin-Chul ever felt akin to love for a person - says that Jin-Chul isn’t heartless, that there’s a feeling of calmness and safety around him. That life breathes in him, like world starts to breathe after a long winter under first spring rays.

Jin-Chul cares about his superior the most, still finds his words hilarious, but doesn’t argue.

And then Sung Jin-Woo appears on scene like a perfect mirror to him. Sung Jin-Woo feels familiar, like an old friend, and every time they share same space, Jin-Chul can feel familiar grind of ash between his teeth and taste of it in his mouth.

Jin-Chul is intimately familiar with this, feeling it around his mother at that evening. Sung Jin-Woo reeks of death, he feels like death, he is death. And yet, despite the coldness and detachment, underneath all this ash he’s carrying in him, there’s a burning love. Sung Jin-Woo loves, he loves and cares and protects unconditionally and wholeheartedly, with his feelings and passions yet never gets burned by it.

And Jin-Chul finds himself loving him one day. He feels something warm and gentle blossom on his chest, like first shy snowdrops upon arrival of spring, gentle roots with beautiful white flowers embracing his cold heart with warmth. It’s so sudden and unfamiliar to him that breath gets stolen from his lungs and he hastily excuses himself, leaving mildly worried Go Gun-Hee. He feels bad about it, but he’s so overwhelmed by realization that it makes him laugh. It’s a such beautiful feeling, so light and gentle and he thinks that it’s something he and his mother should’ve shared, too.

And then he covers his face with shaking palms and starts to weep, just like his mother twenty years ago. She loved his father, however short lived their love was, she probably tried to love Jin-Chul despite being unable to. And she paid for love with her life.

Jin-Chul wasn’t afraid of death since it followed him all his life. But now he loves, and fear embraces him, clenching his heart and tugging at roots of love.

Jin-Chul is afraid of love. Afraid of death. Afraid of Sung Jin-Woo.

watching shingeki no bahamut virgin soul rn and I'm not even halfway through but there's soooo much potential for Mugaro&Azazel+Ray&Zack crossover
