The Odyssey would have been a lot shorter if Odysseus gave the Cyclops weed instead of wine.
#the odyssey#odysseus#non mdzs#Worse part of this is that this isn't even the first time he's seen this movie.#I don't think I captured the sheer genuine confusion and distress when the Nobody gambit came up.#Mans had his world upheaved for a moment. Know the risks when you blaze it I suppose.#My dad has great taste in films and I can always count on him recommending something really unique.#We've been going through various Odyssey adaptations and I must say; Odyssey (1997) is a good one.#Telemachus is appropriately a moody and emotional (crybaby) teen boy.#Hermes is the twinkiest little fruit I have every seen. No exaggeration. It is truly a sight to bear witness to.#Athena is sadly a weak point. And while the olive tree is constantly drawn attention to...there's no wedding bed gambit.#Penelope fans will really enjoy how she has lots of good scenes. Her plight runs parallel through the whole movie!#The scene with Anticlea on the beach particularly stands out. 'You'are my mother! You're my father! You are my strength!'#She's losing everything and everyone important to her. She has no control in her life or her home.#All she can do is wait and keep her head high despite the rising waters. God I love her.#All in all; I highly recommend this one as another good adaptation. It rearranges and cuts out some scenes but hits the mark overall.

I have all of these extended thoughts on my head about the amazing way themes and character relationships are handled in Iruma-kun and the inclusion of queerness and the handling of the coming of age narrative in this shonen manga/anime
And every time all that comes out when I'm reccing it is "You should watch/read it"
Do it. Go watch/read Mairimashita! Iruma-kun/Welcome to Demon School Iruma-kun
Please.
#mairimashita! iruma kun#m!ik#welcome to demon school iruma kun#i just be ramblin#anime recommendation#manga recommendation#Like okay baseline on its surface it's an isekai anime about a teenage boy who is sold to a demon by his terrible parents and has to go to#school in the demon realm and live there without being found out (otherwise he thinks he'll be eaten)#But it's also a story about growing up and a story about a kid from a terrible situation learning what it means to (and being allowed to)#have goals and ambitions and wants#It's about a kid who gets all his needs met for the first time in his life (and a little spoiled) and figures out he wants everyone to have#that#It's about friendship and bonds and the importance of working together with others#It debunks that usual take about how humanity's base traits are evil and greed and the urge to murder and steal and whatnot through#the comparison to demons‚ who are said to be all of those things at their core and yet in actuality aren't beholden to it#It's about outcasts coming together not letting other people determine their worth and proving just how high they can reach and what they#can accomplish. they force the world to recognize them instead of assimilating#It's about what happens to outcasts who are taken in by bad actors vs outcasts who get genuine support#It's about kindness#It's about how adults should both help the next generation improve while also being their defenders from things they shouldn't have to#handle yet#It's even about the dangers of being fully selfless or fully selfish. How personal desire/the serving of oneself and kindess/the serving of#others should be balanced#About how desire is not inherently terrible and about how being constantly self serving stunts one's growth#And it's also about a human who got sold to a demon and is gonna be the demon king one day#Thinking about this manga makes me want to chew through concrete I love it so much#*how constantly serving others stunts one's growth

lilo accidentally standing underneath the moving platform and louis impersonating liam in the hunger games
(tmh seattle 7/28/13)
#liam making sure everyone knows it would be him AND louis. together. not just louis.#'it would've been me and you'#the little longing grab🥹#the all guns blazing impersonations lol#louis being genuinely concerned liam would get crushed#i debated posting this but there are so many cute lilo moments#so just ignore the outside context that makes this sad now and live in delusion with me#and i don't recommend watching the full source video#lilo#ot5#liam payne#louis tomlinson#tmht#tour#2013

finished Hyperion by Dan Simmons and ive been trying to write my little goodreads review for it (as i do for every book i read) and like. where do i even START.
this book is soooo good but also what do i even say about it. "Canterbury tales in space" sounds like a very goofy premise but i think it changed my brain chemistry
#anime life#i want to recommend this book to everyone but i genuinely cant think of anyone other than me to recommend it to#but i think The Scholar's Tale is so incredibly moving#so if you were gonna read just one#read the one about a Jewish man struggling with his faith as his daughter is struck by a mysterious illness#or The Priest's Tale. if you like body horror.

Lmao okay wait. I got asked that question about Feyre/Bryce/Aelin and I went down a lil rabbit hole and somehow ended up on a subreddit of people arguing over who would win in a fight if it were Feyre vs. Aelin.
And I am CACKLING right now because it seems like the bulk of people on that thread think Aelin would win, and the people who think Feyre would win are SO. UPSET. Like they are BIG MAD that anyone would think Aelin would win hahahahahaha
I'm cackling. I can't breathe I'm laughing so hard omfg. People really do 100% project themselves onto Feyre. They really think they ARE Feyre!!!!! I'm crying. Send help I can't breathe 😂😂
#lmao it's so stupid#idek how I ended up here#but I am just CRYING at these people LOSING THEIR MINDS 😭#these are old threads to be fair#but it's funny as fuck seeing everyone get so butthurt omg#what a nice little comedic rabbit hole that was#10/10 would highly recommend#the funniest part is that the people who think aelin would win are conceding to certain points#but the people who think feyre would win are losing their minds ahhaahahahaha#i'm being such a dick today my bad you guys#i don't even have an excuse for being a dick#my b my b#update: someone said feyre wins against aelin because she can wear a cruel mask#i genuinely can't stop laughing pls send help#(I feel the need to clarify that I literally don't care about this debate but BOY OH BOY...#(...am I having a TIME seeing ppl who think they ARE Feyre argue about this ahhh this is so fun omg)#oh god I hope a feyre or feysand stan sends me hate for this post#PLSSSSSS

My best friend Fandom has once again returned and asked me to post to Tumblr for her! Once again, I have permission to post this video and all edits were done by Fandom (http.redshoes on Instagram)
These memes are all based on Cryptid Sightings by @naffeclipse
She has a lot to say this time around!
A message from Fandom:
"Hello Naff!! And hello everyone :D
It’s me, your girl, your local meme and edit maker, Fandom (aka http.redshoes on Insta 😎)
I’ve come back to make another meme comp for you guys! I wanted to make this earlier, but:
1. I was busy saving/collecting ATSV content on Instagram like Pokémon to getting noticed twice by Jack in the Box ☺️
2. I had to create an Ao3 account (understandably ofc AI theft sucks) and was um. You know… being silly in the comment section 👀 (please don’t mind me if you ever stumble upon them - I react and appreciate the stuff I enjoy in weird ways 💔)
3. Was waiting for my friend here to finish reading so I didn’t spoil anything in the memes! We both loved the series so much and man. The Naff do be eclipsing fr in releasing chapters left and right biggest round of applause for one of my favorite authors here 👏👏👏
Naff, you did such a great job writing this fanfic. I’m going to repeat myself from the comment section BUT you need to give yourself a pat on the back, relax, take a break - just reward yourself. You deserve it all and I hope that you take care of yourself for all the hard work you’ve done 💞💞💞
I’ve also included the lovely artist themselves, @themeeplord , again in one of my meme comps.
It’s only one meme but dang they always draw Eclipse to be getting that gain 💪💪💪 (bc of how muscular he is haha.) Mad respect to all of the drawings they create - they’re always a banger to see.
(Most of the memes surround the last episode + epilogue so if you haven’t read those chapters LOOK ‼️ AWAY ‼️ Don’t get spoiled 🤯)
(P.S. for the imagine scenario that’s not a meme, this is what they’re saying in the audio:
“[Amused] You can hear their heartbeats? Come on, that’s a little far fetched.”
“[Soft chuckling] I can hear yours too… Your heart’s beating pretty fast.”
I’d like to think this would take place around the beginning of “The Episode Bedeviling Bodies,” where the Hunter is still trying to understand their dear friend and what they’re capable of. I thought it was fitting ngl and included it in the comp.
There were uh, more memes I wanted to include, but I’m running low on storage space atm. I’ll get back to making more after I’m done clearing that out ^^’)
(P.P.S. Okay I don’t have Tumblr obviously but 🕴️ apparently you guys really liked the SJ memes I made??? Because my friend’s been receiving notifs of it still??? Thank you so much you guys!! I didn’t really expect people to enjoy them that much 😭💘💘💘)
Now without further ado, enjoy the meme comp! >:D " -Fandom
#river says...#bestie posting#cryptid sighting#crytid sightings spoilers#many more memes for everyone to enjoy :)#now that I've caught up to CS i can actually look at these memes hdjssjn#real talk though#crytid sightings is genuinely such a beautiful fic and one of my favorite stories of all time#naff has such an incredible writing style and is such a good storyteller#i really recommend reading CS even if you're not into fnaf#it's such a rollercoaster#the fluff is so sweet and the angst is so heartbreaking#but everything just works#I'm so grateful to have found Naff and her work#she's such a lovely person and an extremely talented author#I am so excited to see what she writes next#especially since the end of CS had me so emotional#i will never get over this fic#sorry for the long rambling tags but i had to gush a little bdjdjsj#hope you guys enjoy the memes <3

I know this is really rich coming from me as an autistic person with extreme social difficulties but because of those difficulties I think a lot about this kind of thing and have spent a lot of time like. Testing different things out and I have to say in case someone really takes this advice like genuinely the bottom thing is sweet but really not a good way to start a conversation. my advice to you as someone who struggles to start conversations and wants to talk to / get more friendly with people is to message them about something specific ! Like if you want to have conversations about a fictional character you both like: message them a specific question about that character! Or if you notice oh they seem to like talking about xyz themes in this piece of media or like. they're really passionate about this specific thing I also like. Just ask them a question about it! Or If they post art you like message them directly about a specific piece of art etc ... you should start with something small and specific rather than being like Hey we are similar let's talk about this thing it's best to be like Hey your take on this specific thing you posted is super interesting, I totally agree and I was also thinking about how ...etc you know what I mean. I find a really good way if you want to start talking to someone but are nervous about messaging first to kind of make it seem less scary/out of the blue is rather than reblogging one of their posts and adding commentary in the tags, if it's something you know you can both get excited about..just send them the post and tell them what you were gonna say in the tags directly. But like you're gonna have a way better time if you find something really specific you know you both are excited about to talk to them about rather than just sending a vague "hey I think you're really cool and wanna be friends" type message. I understand that that it feels like a lot easier but I know from experience being on both ends it's not really gonna go anywhere. You just have to start a little conversation about something small and specific. And maybe it will fizzle out after a few exchanges but then you can keep doing that. That's how that starts and it just takes time. Like just sending someone a post and being like this reminded me of you because its something you know they like is a way better start. Also like I think that post that was going around the other day shows that a lot of people on this site (myself included) feel a lot of anxiety about like . Noticing things about people and then talking to them about those things but. It's okay to do that and if you remember things about people and bring them up to them its actually like. How you form connections
#i say this as someone who has been guilty of like reblogging posts like Ouaghhh i wanna be friends with my mutuals and then not talking to#them but like. you can just talk to them! but i highly recommend having something specific and granular to talk to them about or esle#the conversation wont materialize#also to clarify i think telling people directly you like them and want to be friends is good and we should all do it more but also#you have to have a followup#again im like speaking from experience idk i think the whole thing of like everyone just yelling into the void all the time about how they#wanna talk to their mutuals more . i get it because we're all anxious and shy but genuinely. message the mutual you think is cool and has#good opinions about those opinions. it will almost certainly go well for you#but i say this and dont do it. so i get it

Seasonal depression is kicking in. Gotta reread CTB to feel something.
yeah you're gonna feel more Depression
#happy sads season everyone! I am coping by keeping myself so physically exhausted I do not have time to be sad#genuinely doing a little bit of movement every day has been doing me wonders both for regulating my energy levels and for giving me#an outlet for the anxiety and sad stuff. i hate it when standard recommended practices work it really sucks ass#me rambling#lu ctb#ask#linked universe#chososbigdick#jfc i know i said this before but your fucking url dude. 10/10

okay i have one more post related to the esupuri stuff i posted this morning but like. if you dont like that the new characters are younger and want a game with older characters. respectfully play a different game. 18trip is right there with good character writing and most of the characters are in their 20s (day2 is obviously an exception but otherwise all of the characters* are 20-27 in age otherwise) (*kinari is also an exception in a weird way given he's [redacted] but like. its complicated). like if you don't agree with what happyele is doing with the franchise you can be upset about it but you also don't have to stick around. you don't have to keep playing or pay attention to what you don't like. and for the love of god don't main tag your fucking hate for the new characters and units.
#shay speaks#not main tagging this either but it genuinely drives me up the wall#you are not the only person playing this game#happyele has reasons for making the new characters young.#for both story reasons in universe and for out of universe marketing reasons#it is a deliberate choice.#i cannot recommend 18trip enough if you want smth with older characters in a similar genre#but genuinely genuinely if you dont like the game anymore stop playing you dont have to stick around#or just. post about what you do like. you do not have to be so negative all the time.#or again. dont main tag your shit.#not that you cant criticize the game either that is also not what i mean here#you absolutely can there are always things to criticize#but at some point there is a line between criticism and making your dislike of the series as a whole everyone elses problem#im tired i'm probably not wording this properly so i'm gonna sleep but you get it.

your fics have fundamentally reshaped my understanding of rise characters. this is helping me make them much more fucked up thank you-
i love writing happy endings and gratuitous hurt/comfort but im not planning on ever tackling therapy in cc for a reason.... beyond the whole poverty thing i am just entranced by the idea of them making each other a little worse and having to really brute force and stumble their way through it. it's very narratively interesting. grins
#ask#canary continuity#im writing in a different genre than the show ultimately so i can play around with innocuous concepts#like hey they pretty much only grew up around each other in a family dynamic where they had to take age SO seriously to function#it was their survival technique#and they have this innate soul link too#i genuinely think they would be this horrendously codependent#especially if something like this were to happen#push one domino and the others fall kitsune was actually kind of spittin etc etc etc#THIS IS VERY FLATTERING THOUGH i love complicated narratives where everyone's a little wrong#big recommend. its SO fun

I started playing Coral Island, which is an adorable farming sim! The art style is so cute, the environments are really pretty and cozy and ugh, I love it already!
But it also as a lot of dateable characters and holy crap, why is everyone cute and hot??? How am I supposed to pick someone?
#(I don't know all the names yet)#But there was a female character WHO HAD STRETCH MARKS??? WHICH IS SO COOL TO SEE???#And there are so many shapes and sizes in all the villagers! And different backgrounds and race and all which is so fun to see!#Also some of them immediately are kind of flirty#And as someone who's never been flirted with it just makes me go “o-okay 😳” to like everyone!#No but it's genuinely so cute! I really recommend it!#Coral Island#Shut up Char

I need to stop taking TV recommendations from my eldest sister, good god.
#this is about rivals#look i am a bonafide millennial ok i LOVE aiden turner and david tennant in everything#but she told me it was funny and it wasn't#she told me it was filmed around here and i'm like ok but endeavour is LITERALLY there#and you could maybe argue i'm not in jilly cooper's target audience what with me being ace#but i don't hate raunchy stuff as long as the characters are compelling#which they aren't!#i feel like there are a lot of shows atm trying to do the 'rooting for the rich bastards' succession-style shit#and failing miserably#bc they don't get that what makes succession amazing is how genuinely sympathetically pathetic everyone is#idk man#i wanted to like it#but coming off the back of mainlining endeavour and the release of arcane s2#i think i'll have to give it a miss for now at least#she also recommended the day of the jackal with eddie redmayne#but i'm not subscribed to NOW#so idk#every show she recommends me she's like 'you'll LOVE it'#and every time i try them i'm like 'whyyyy do you think i would love this????'
