The Heart of True Discipleship: Understanding Matthew 7:21-23
Introduction In today’s world, where outward appearances and superficial commitments can easily overshadow genuine devotion, the words of Jesus in Matthew 7:21-23 resonate with profound urgency. This passage challenges believers to reflect deeply on the nature of their faith and relationship with Christ. The Words of Jesus “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of…

See Frieren x Himmel is canonically doomed and that's part of the overall narrative, Frieren will outlive almost everyone she ever meets but she slowly starts to build more and more relationships in spite of that and Himmel was one of the biggest catalysts in her changing in this way
But they also have this "this is how it can still win" vibe to it because Frieren is literally traveling to the afterlife specifically to visit Himmel, and along the way she's changing and very slowly embracing love in all these different forms from the people around her, one of which was from Himmel
So it's doomed but it still feels like they'll definitely have a happy ending too, it's an interesting dynamic
#frieren: beyond journey's end#frieren x himmel#frimmel#never have I been so desperate for the straightbait to still work out haha. it's just such sappy genuine romance and I love it#save me doomed elf/human relationship#this isn't even touching upon the most recent manga arc where she's traveled back in time and the marriage illusion. like. christ#tc posts#anyway they'll reunite one day after frieren eventually passes and share a long embrace

Why bother? (Why bother?) It's gonna hurt me. (It's gonna hurt me.) It's gonna kill when- (Why bother!) -You desert me! (Gonna hurt me!)
Set after Nightmare. Laios is reminiscing and contemplating.
#laishuro#laios touden#i make a lot of jokes on here since part of the fun of this blog for me is limiting myself to only expressing ideas via drawings#as much as I can to try to see what I can try to convey in the limited time I have to draw each day which is sometimes like 15minutes#but laios idea of who shuro was to him and who he continues to be and how it ties into his own feelings of self worth and self hatred#not to mention being so thoroughly defined by having never been indulged before by the men in his life#are so compelling to me#and then of course you mix in toshiros own mind prisons#and their established dynamic of him begrudgingly putting up with him because he feels he has to and bc hes cursed with obedience#whilst laios genuinely thinks shuro does it because he likes it and likes laios because why else would anyone act like that#when everyone else in his life has not hesitated to Let Him Know#this is what is so fun about relationships like this…forever passing by each other’s true feelings like ships in the night#sometimes i get embarassed how deep i get for some of the characters in this series it really is that deep sometimes but not always#but WHATEVER#i never even engaged in or was interested in shipping the several years i read dunmeshi EXCEPT laishuro lol#which i sadistically wanted to stay one sided and miserable forever. I rarely get fed such genuinely fraught dynamics as their one in manga#so i became obsessed#and walked through the desert alone for 40 years and then checked in as anime started airing that other people ship this and gaf#and decided to unleash the jokes and ideas that my like 2 friend who like anime previously suffered alone as though they were jesus christ#now tho as much as I still enjoy tragedy and pain and emotional suffering I’ve let love and peace and requited fulfilled yaoi into my life#with laishuro. and its great!#my comics

oh my god i just. remembered this. sorry. one of the things people do in the saiki k fandom (cough cough specifically tiktok cough cough) is that people call every terusai moment "fanservice.." FANSERVICE..? WHATTTTT ?
as if you guys get to make the choices in what the anime SHOULD be like, and which duos get better moments.. thats so funny oh my GOD.
and im saying the anime specifically because none of these people read the manga.. there was this one pretty fucking viral tiktok i saw a few months ago where this person was talking about this and saying that the anime "tried to set up teruhashi and saiki as a couple" when it "wasnt like that in the manga" and then proceeded to talk about scenes that WERE in the manga and did NOT get changed for the anime.. mf why are you just LYING. AND WHY ARE THE MASSES BELIEVING YOU. THATS CRAZY.
#its weird cuz like. nobody is genuinely saying terusai is canon or u HAVE to ship it (its an obvious joke when we that abt any ship)#but these people for some reason act like we're the devil for interpreting their cute scenes as romantic#MY BROTHER IN CHRIST JUST LIVE YOUR OWN LIFE. INTERPRET THE WAY YOU WANT WHILE ILL DO IT HOW I WANT.#youre allowed to see them as just friends just like im allowed to see them as a couple!!#their friendship is lovely!! it's beautiful!! appreciate it instead of trying to ruin all those moments and boil them doen to 'fanservice-'#JUST because a lot of people see it as romantic!!#i swear these people are just women haters#they see her getting cute moments with saiki and jump on the bandwagon of hating her and their whole relationship#saiki k#tdlosk#the disastrous life of saiki k.#saiki kusuo#teruhashi kokomi#terusai#saiteru

just looked at the tim//kon tag on incognito to see who posted that shit take abt bart and JESUS it is fucking NOXIOUS in there with all the people i have blocked. i need to bleach my computer and my fucking brain.
#rimi talks#for the record that post wasnt even by the one moron i was thinking of. its a DIFFERENT MORON#why are there so many of them. jesus fucking christ#mad bc tim and kon have a genuinely fun relationship in the comics but their Fucking fans.#''''''fans'''''''' honestly i KNOW none of these people have touched a kon comic in their lives#and most of them more than likely not a tim comic either#im so glad the block button exists but sometimes its not enough. i need an ''explode this person with a laser beam from space'' button

like why did they change where Vegeta was when Cell announced the cell games in the anime
why did they make this vegeta starting shit with yamcha instead of chillin in the lab with his family? why did they take Bulma out of the lab? Why'd they say she was Out while Dr Brief was repairing 16? Why did they change Bulma working on advanced robotics to running in late with her baby?
it's the same scene except: - Bulma's actively at work being a scientist - Vegeta's not being rude to her (or anyone else!) - Vegeta waits for Trunks instead of leaving the room - Cell interrupted the airwaves, which means Trunks and Vegeta were just hanging out with Bulma and Dr B while they were working
Those are all Great Character Details!! That the anime rails against!!
#these cowards afraid of showing Vegeta actively choosing to be around his wife and child even when he's Bad#Because Goku who is Good never ever even once makes that choice onscreen outside of filler#and then they justify that choice by making Chi-Chi seem horrid and unreasonable for (checks notes) Not Wanting Her Child to Die#anyway I am once again being bitter about anime vs manga klasjdklasd#I can't believe I let the anime convince me I hated Goku man Goku's SUCH a good and ridiculous character in the manga#the anime just SUCKS at letting him be who he's always been#and has to reframe and recontextualize and reword everything he does so that it seems like he's Actually Quite Mature and Thoughtful nO#THAT's VEGETA YOU COWARDS#also the fact that bulma said she wouldn't live with him at the beginning of this arc to him casually hanging out with her and trunks#after cell beat his ass and humbled him is REALLY GOOD SUBTEXT for their shared relationship having improved without showing it#it's great subtext for all three of them and toei just went 'nah' and decided to make it a whole group shot so ...? Master Roshi could sit#and explain how ??? Tournaments Work??? Just so Cell could log on and also explain how tournaments work?? God it's been so long#since I've watched the anime and now when I do it just makes me mad aklsdjskja the manga is SOOOOO much better#there are some spots where the pacing is more ideal in the anime like goku turning ssj for the first time but like man. everything else is.#like why are you making Goku snarky with Vegeta dude his clapbacks are SO much funnier when they're just Tactless Honesty#like Vegeta's not insulted by Snark bitch he grew up in the Freeza force that man was raised by THE bitchiest drag queens#Vegeta's insulted by someone saying something deeply and insultingly True to his face as if it's the fucking weather#Goku in the anime is like 'a battle of wits hoho' but Goku's purity is part of the joke he's not snippy he's just got no social etiquette#He's just honest! He's not trying to be insulting. That's what MAKES it insulting! That's the WHOLE GAG of why Vegeta can't stand him#Goku is always just telling the truth and it's always the rudest shit Vegeta's ever heard in his life#'it's a sunny day! i'm way stronger than you! see you out there bud!' 10000% Genuinely Friendly. Golden Retriever-Ass Pure.#Infuriating. Hilarious.#anyway I looked at anime clips to make sure I remembered things right and that was a mistake#as someone who has a soft spot for it and grew up on it -- compared to the manga it's bad and it's always been bad#and toriyama was right to be disinterested in watching it jesus christ they BUTCHERED his work#anyway this has been another shot of haterade with sketches thank you for scrolling my rambletags askljdask#dbtag#i just truly can't get over how they make Vegeta call her 'woman' in the anime and he literally only ever calls her Bulma in the manga#except for on namek when he refers to her as 'the/that woman' because she is a complete stranger#why is he calling her woman like he's a 1940s american husband and not an extraterrestrial from a deeply advanced society toei

please tell me i'm not the only one who thinks this is a really weird thing to do
idk not to sound all back in my day but ive never been in a fandom where its been so acceptable to show romantic fanart to the actors, especially in person for them to sign and especially not for a non canon ship
like this isn't explicit or anything so its no hate to this person (they r very talented) it just makes me uncomfortable honestly, i don't think its an appropriate thing to do and its not the only time i've seen this and similar things like having the actors hold signs or props about the ship
and honestly the actors aren't in a place where they can refuse if it makes them uncomfortable so it just leaves a bad taste in my mouth whenever i see it idk
#tbh i think the cons create such a weird parasocial relationship between the actors and fans#and it genuinely causes so many problems#like clearly they are fine with it. they get paid really well i dont feel too bad for them#but CHRIST this is overly close to me#i can't really think of any other conventions like this that are still going??#in the 2010s there were cons for everything lol#apart from comic con i mean like specific to tv shows or more niche cons#and most of them are gone but spn cons happen like every weekend#and they just sit on the stage and talk i feel? does anything else happen??

#toontown#toontown corporate clash#ttcc#cathal bravecog#cathal ray toby bravecog#multislacker#its like they actualy dont even realize hes not an 8 yr old#like ppl genuinely seem to think cathal is an infant#i think hes on the younger side but hes still an adult with a job#no bc today there was a STRING of messages#all calling him baby and small#the motm panels where u see how small he is compared to his dad has ruined the cathal community#now everyone treats him like a tiny wittle baby bc of that comic#MY BROTHER IN CHRIST ALL THE COGS ARE THAT SMALL COMPARED TO ALLAN.#HE IS AN ABSOLUTE UNIT#cathals not even that small compared to a lot of the cogs#look at brian and cosmo#fandom when a character has a close relationship with their dad#and their dad helps them get a job and wants the best for them#like cathal doesnt do anything themselves but its clear that they CAN. they just choose not to.#they are not an incapable infant they are a fully capable adult#who takes advantage of their position to avoid any real work.#call me holly grayelle the way im gatekeeping cathal from these ppl

i think often about how teen titans ‘03 failed from start to finish to portray a team and relationships worth investing in. were we reading about a team or 3 characters the writers liked + a cast of extras they threw around as they liked all the while not even having the favoured characters interact with each other in a worthwhile way
#there were some exceptions like rose and eddie….who were both constantly placed as outsiders and this is Never resolved despite being made#clear and their relationship isn’t even supposed to be one of the focal ones#kon/cassie? christ who cares. I’m not even talking abt any bias against the ship it was just such a shallow tell not show relationship#which used the flattest versions of each character.#tim and any member that wasn’t from YJ? even tim and cassie to be honest? what a joke.#they had a million issues to convince us that tim was friends with the older titans and didn’t manage. tim and Cassie had a grief filled#fling sure and they talked to each other more openly than they talked to others…what else. they were nothing but close relative to the other#titans at the moment. it’s spitting in young justice’s face essentially#i think megan and eddie were the only other compelling friendship we got and once again they’re not meant to be important#the whole comic is just so….shallow. can we be genuine for two minutes. can we stop being racist and misogynistic for two panels and do#something worth caring about. thank you for bringing Joey back but now what.#it’s genuinely not salvageable outside of very small itty bitty things that would’ve worked better in a different comic#if i could erase the whole thing from existence i would

any hopes for kiwami 3? like things u wanna see added or changed stuff like that
if they dont keep kiryu's goofy walk stance and the hoof-like walk sounds i dont wanna play it
#snap chats#no one understands how much i love that from y3 and y4 its genuinely one of my favorite things about the game#oh but i guess i have to give an actual answer now. HMPH.#id scream if they revived kanda calling mine limp wristed. homophobia in 4k#OK BUT TO BE SERIOUS uhhhh i dont know. im a real simple guy i think#my only like. If This Isnt There Im Leaving deal is mine's palette and im so serious#rgg's scaring me with all the black-hair/purple-suit mine stuff as of late and i cant stress how hard ill vomit if thats in the final#HYPOTHETICAL final anyways. yk3 isnt coming out for. IDK A WHILE#i wanna say i hope they highlight daigo and mine's relationship more but i dont know how theyd do that#i really like how mine's handled in y3 as is so i dont think i want scenes injected like what they did with yk1 and nishiki#someone said a Mine Saga after the game and... hm ... sounds too unrealistic for me to hope for it#like im REALLY trying to think how they could possibly reference the rggo stories in y3 since those are EXCELLENT but#i think . MAYBE. you could reference the story where richardson calls mine as he's driving to the hospital#the only thing you'd have to exclude though is mine stopping by the bar- like JUST keep the phone conversation maybe#cause in that scene that subordinate does question mine if he can really kill daigo and i think thatd be neat. in my opinion.#yeah i dont know. in regards to rggo its hard to think of what i want without intervening things i already like about y3#its a real head scratcher ...#a really good epilogue addition would be adapting that RGGO bit where daigo ruminates on mine. that's a fair ending for him i think#it also fulfills the need to see how daigo saw mine even if its just a little#and to non-rggo readers it could start to answer 'how does daigo feel about everything that happened'#im still so curious as to if daigo was briefed on EVERYTHING that happened but .... anyways....#sorry all my hopes for y3 are just mine/minedai centric fLVKELKA BUT LIKE. i really am content with everything else with y3 surprisingly#idk. i want kiryu fucking up that curry in high definition tho. thats important to me#THEY HAVE TO KEEP THE QTES DURING THE RICHARDSON FIGHT ILL BE PISSED#i need the fight to be AS CAMPY and unnecessary as it was in the og. INCLUDING richardson's voice acting i need it wack as hell#is it weird i actually appreciate the Diet Building Loredumping being like. in replayable-cutscene form#i thought id prefer just One Long cutscene but im glad theres the option to skip those segments#BUT being able to get a refresher in case you missed something somehow#im running out of tags jesus christ i shouldve put this in the main text but vjALjlagj those are all my thoughts for now bYE

a group chat I’m in with people I was at uni with came back to life today. I love these people but also my first serious ex is in there. they put some photos from their wedding which was recently.
my first thought was ���aw that’s nice, I’m happy for them” and that is true. but then my second thought was what the fuck am I doing with my life?
then there were congratulations thrown around for a couple in the chat that had had a child this year, and then another couple and people start catching up on all their Big Life Moments from recently. and lemme tell you, being a single man in your thirties who has just gone through a really weird break up situation and is generally feeling like an a lovable sack of shit who will never feel or feel worthy to feel the kind of love he wants in this climate really gets The Thoughts goin’
I guess my point is I’m not doing so well folks and therapy can’t come quick enough this week
#personal#therapy time#I know logically that I have lots to celebrate in my life and I do have love from friends#but man I really fucked up a genuine and true chance at the kind of romantic love I want and#jeeesus Christ it feels like I missed my only chance and now I will be alone and lacking something I want forever#I wish I didn’t want a loving relationship so much#I see people being perfectly happy without it and like I’m Fine#I have things and I have people and I have community#but I want that Big Love you know?

romana hanging out with alternative universe brax just because she misses her brax????? queen are you good??? 🥺😭😭
#i still have no idea really what brax and romana's relationship IS exactly but i fucking love it#from either side#and honestly i feel like a lot of the time they aren't certain either. i think certainly brax but probably both of them started out#with the idea that the other could be used for political gain (i mean brax literally groomed his own personal president jesus christ)#but it has gotten SO out of hand and there's definitely genuine feeling in there but What feelings and How Much? no way to know#they're so *chews on them*#gallifrey#braxmana

if you dont like a media dont interact with it. dont post about it in tags where people who DO like it go.
that is all
#why yes this IS about the new assassin dad anime#buddy daddies#yall really need to get outside#its not queerbait shut up#miri isnt overly annoying shes just a 4 year old girl#a REALISTIC 4 year old girl as someone w a niece that acts just like her#its an unconventional family dynamic and i love it its a great comedy found family#jesus christ the “gay spy x family” joke was not meant to be genuine because we cant expect these things#it isnt yuri on ice where they build up the relationship - there is zero hints of flirtation or romance between rei and kazuki#which means they arent baiting you. theres no basis for the bait
