something I feel like isn't nearly appreciated enough about mob's arc in mp100 is that his background is... Completely normal. I see a lot of people interpreting mob's parents as neglectful or distant based on the few scenes we've seen of them, which greatly baffles me because their few scenes aim to establish his family life as.. completely normative. They have the normal, average quips of a normal family. And I think it's very unique and refreshing because it means mob's troubles and internal hardship isn't a product of his upbringing, it's a byproduct of a traumatic experience and of his own personality and how it coalesces with his psychic powers. And I personally think more media should acknowledge that some people, even with perfectly normative and healthy familial dynamics and circumstances, will still develop very complex internal issues and personal psychology. and on the same note, some people with perfectly normal upbringing won't feel comfortable to confide in their parents and seek an external authority figure to look up to, which doesn't necessarily mean them and their parents are estranged. I dont think mob's (or ritsu's) life have to be unhappy to legitimize or explain the fact he has the personal struggles he does. Embracing normalcy is the main theme of this series.

Elon Musk was forced to reveal who financed his purchase of Twitter. Amongst owners are two Russian oligarchs close to Putin and sanctioned over the Russian invasion of Ukraine: Petr Aven and Vadim Moshkovich.

Petr Aven is a Russian billionaire, founder of Alfa Group, which is one of the main wallets for Putin. Aven also attended a meeting with Putin on February 24, 2022 to mark the start of the invasion of Ukraine.

Vadim Moshkovich owns Russia's largest agricultural holding Rusagro. Naturally, he also attended the meeting with Putin on February 24, 2022 and, like Aven, did not protest against Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

yknowwww there is something... deeply uncomfortable about the way mel never speaks directly to viktor in the 'build hextech weapons' scene. she really only speaks to jayce. plenty of people have pointed this out already but like the one scene they actually share a meaningful interaction and she treats him like he's beneath her. all this after jayce has emphasized how important viktor is, that hextech is theirs, together. she unequivocally ices him out, there's no other way to interpret this scene. the way it's shot too - from viktor's perspective, looking up at her, as though to reinforce the same belief in him. like he doesn't even bother expecting respect from her - or anyone from the upper echelon of piltover. he's fully accustomed to being dehumanized by everyone around him at this point. sometimes even by jayce, despite the trust they clearly have in each other.

then of course after this scene is viktor experimenting on himself. it's pretty clear that he has internalized his own dehumanization. crazy.

(looks like in dragon form one of the horns on one side is broken)

"His crime is high treason. He took on a form reserved for the gods and their chosen, and dared to fly in the shape of the divine. The sinner belongs to Dirthamen; he claims he took wings at the urging of Ghilan'nain, and begs protection from Mythal. She does not show him favor, and will let Elgar'nan judge him." For one moment there is an image of a shifting, shadowy mass with blazing eyes, whose form may be one or many. Then it fades.

welcome back, ancient "The Evanuris Were [all] Dragons[haped sometimes]" post.

It sings of a time when dragons ruled the skies. A time before the Veil, before the mysteries were forgotten. Can you hear it?

this question is for jewish + indigenous folk, please do not offer your unqualified opinion!

what are your thoughts on reconnecting members of your community?

(jews, i am NOT talking about converts with buried jewish ancestry, i mean people with one jewish parent or grandparent who were raised without any connection to judaism and are now engaging with it WITHOUT converting or attending formal services/classes/etc.)

we always say a jew is a jew is a jew, and i really do believe that, but i also have encountered a lot of “well my [parent/grandparent/stepparent/etc] is jewish and therefore i’m jewish which makes me a qualified authority on this subject”. this specific type of person has about a preschool level understanding of judaism, if that, and frequently spreads misinformation. it’s not uncommon for them to say requiring formal conversion is some flavor of bigoted and that they won’t do it on principle. i should also note they are not baal teshuvah (jews raised secular who later become more religious). personally…i can’t find it in me to call these people my people. the fundamental aspects of what makes a culture - food, holidays, music - we don’t share those experiences and more to the point you have no interest in sharing them, at least not meaningfully. judaism is an aesthetic to these people. to me, it’s my life.

felt like a drawing other people's voices mood.

so @itsonlypolite and @everestgale both made comments about their contrarians just refusing to be shipped with the other voices, and turns out mine's the same way. so...

looks like Shena, Comicyle and Clemmie are getting along all fine and dandy and hunky-dory.

bet no one expected this doodle from me, huh? I've voiced my...disdain for Contrarian quite a few times already. nothing to do with his character itself, but more so how hard it is for me to design and write this little fuck. he's making things difficult for me. I do not claim this child and I am not his papa.

back to jail for you, Clementine Contrarian Crossings.

the idea of Arthur and Drifter openly dating is so funny to me, like imagine somebody asking them "oh, how did you guys meet?" "what was your first impression of each other?" like what would they even say?

Have we ever talked about the fact that BJ likely assumed that Hawkeye would leave first. As in Hawk was drafted earlier and would assumedly get his points first and be discharged… What does it change if BJ was assuming for the whole of their time together that Hawk was going to leave first
