I still do not understand how Clint Eastwood went from playing angry sunshine boy Rowdy Yates…..
…. To playing the stoic, squinting, rugged Man With No Name
Rawhide ran from 1959 to 1965 I think??? And A Fistful Of Dollars came out in 1964. So he was playing both parts at one point.
What happened. How did it happen.

truly i love all of you and i'm so grateful for all the support i get on my vanilla milkshake posts here because i've just seen the way people talk about vanilla milkshake and mysticao on twitter and its genuinely taken 50 years off my life. now i've been reminded as to why i should never join the crk fandom on twitter
#its not even just twitter but the comments i get on tiktok all the time make me want to blow myself up genuinely#on twitter i just saw a thread about mysticao going like Oh durr how can u ship it after reading ep 4#and then proceeds to post a reply saying “enemies to lovers is really good if its done well!! but theyre just torturing each other here” ??#so you dont like enemies to lovers then . what do you think enemies to lovers means ??? they just argue sometimes? lol#also wdym “if its done well” we haven't gotten the full lore of the beasts#and its implied that they only turned this way because they were wronged somehow#that + the amount of power and responsibility that having the full soul jam put on them it was literally a recipe for corruption#its not even as if dark cacao thinks mystic flour was just evil to be evil he literally CALLS HER OUT on being insecure#she wanted to create a world without individuality and without personal interests that could lead to harm of others#which i think is heavily tied to her backstory we havent seen yet#imo. this would in fact be enemies to lovers done well#i dont even ship them btw. but i feel obligated to defend it since i just hate ppl who take this stuff at face value#its such a shame that twitter people have the literacy skills of a 1st grader because i would love to post my crk art on there#and make some friends#but if ppl would be like Erm you cant ship shadowvanilla its hashtag toxic and a red flag!!#then like oookay lol whatever man#sorry for the yappathon#txt#not art#discourse

i miss carpisuns sometimes </3
#not necessarily that I regret switching over but i just get like nostalgic for an earlier time in the ml fandom#s3 was soooo much fun for me#and the long hiatus before s4 was also the best. so good wasn’t ready for it to end when it did haha#things just feel so different in the fandom now#both the fandom has changed and I have changed#and of course the STORY has changed#and I like don’t know what to do about that or how to react#cause I am used to being one of the guys who is defending ml’s honor with my life lol#committed to spreading positivity#and I still want to be that guy!#but it’s like. idk. I don’t recognize this story anymore#this isn’t the same story that I fell in love with years ago. but I don’t want to just like Leave??#I do want to see how things play out bc I am still invested in these characters#and I would love to still be part of the fan community and connect with people over a mutual love for this thing#that has been important to me for years and has inspired me to create and learn new skills and make new friends!#but I also don’t just want to shut up and pretend I’m happy about things I am decidedly unhappy about lol#like it’s honestly surprising to me that a only a small minority of the fandom seems to feel the way I do?#and the majority are still super pumped and frustrated at the people who are complaining#and really. I don’t WANT to rain on anyone’s parade. I honestly don’t#I was part of the parade for years! I had the best time in the parade! I don’t want to ruin the good time!#so i try not to be too salty on main ? but i feel like I’m going a little crazy lmao! like I’m just one bitter little miser fhdjjd#i mean i guess it’s kind of a good thing that I moved blogs tbh lol#cause now when i whine only a fraction of the people have to be exposed to it 😂#but man i hate knowing that people might think of me as a salter#I mean it’s valid if people are trying to have fun and do not want to hear my complaining haha#but also do i automatically have to be a salter. are the only options support and defend ml 100% at all times or Be A Salter#or can there be a third category of certified ml lover that is just disappointed in recent events & disagrees with the new writing direction#is that too much nuance for tumblr lol#see maybe that’s why I miss carpisuns. she didn’t have to ask this question. she was only full of LOVE!#but therein lies the irony…like marinette I have made this choice out of love…for what the story once was…what is to become of me now…

People who write good fic when English isn't their first language are pretty amazing, you know? Expressing these complex emotions and really, deep character studies, in a language that isn't your native language is a difficult task. Does the dialogue always sound like a native speaker? Well, no, but a lot of native English speakers struggle badly with writing dialogue too. And anyway, there are some other interesting benefits to reading things written by native speakers of other languages. When they write in English, they still bring their cultural perspective and references from their first language into the fic. This gives a really unique view of characters and plotlines, like I always walk away with a new way of understanding the canon story that I hadn't thought of before.
#me: damn there are a lot of latin references and idioms in this fic#*checks author page* oh they're italian#it's not that native english speakers NEVER reference latin but we're far more likely to quote shakespeare or other english writers#there's also a new perspective on Buggy's insecurities about his nose#my thought had been ''he hates it for aesthetic reasons and thinks it makes him too ugly for someone to love''#the fic suggests ''he hates it bc society will never accept him or see his intelligence/skills beyond his alleged defect''#it's not that appearance DOESN'T matter in the U.S. but here you can be an ugly man and still be thought of as smart and taken seriously#so it's just a different and interesting cultural perspective

our flag means death S2E3: the innkeeper
#our flag means death#ofmd spoilers#ofmd s2 spoilers#shrimp gifs#it was just a very pretty scene i think#i'm laughing because i played around with curves -- as you do -- but then i had to manually bring the brightness down and make everything#more blue again because it's just better that way lol#god i'm having... so many little marbles bouncing around my head like#this post is already tagged with all the spoiler tags i think i can talk in here#the way it started i had No Inkling At All that this would be this kind of setting. so i didn't pay attention to the surroundings or all th#stuff. hell i could barely hear what they're saying because all my fancy schmancy english skills fall apart in the face of your normal soun#mixing. I MISSED THAT IZ AND ED SAID “LOVE” LIKE HELLO#but. but anyway. but. but once it was revealed that This Is All In Ed's Head. that hornigold is ed and everything is ed. man. god.#it's cold and wet and dark (ed likes warmth). ed was washed up on the shore with his face full of sand but THEN he got rescued by someone#who he hated and associated with all the pain and violence AND who then force-fed him soup so he could get better. who had pretty pieces of#glass hanging from his tent (there's no sun but the decoration itself is a promise of a pretty sighs when the rays of the sun hit#just right--) AND you can't forget the sandals. and the play-acting and aoughhhh EEEDDDDDDDD god he's so good HE'S SO GOOD#i dont think i should touch the delightful revenge scenes because they're dark as fuck and idk if the files i have are hq enough#to survive the becurvening. BUT. ed my love!!! i hope this is not where your insanities end

hands down the worst thing about being an artist is other people constantly going 'I'm not gonna bother doing this fun rewarding thing-- least of all with you-- because you are so much better at it that it ruins it for me'
#I get feeling this way and it's hard not to feel this way#but it's also hard feeling like doing the thing you love makes everyone else feel really bad about themselves#in a perfect world me doing art would encourage everyone to do more art because it's fun and feels good#but no one wants to hear 'everyone can do it! it doesn't matter what your skill level is it's still good for you and fun and rewarding!'#from someone who's like... already (relatively) good at the thing#EVEN THOUGH IT'S TRUE. EVEN THOUGH I REALLY BELIEVE THAT!!#anyway this isn't even ABOUT 'making good art' it's a cute couple's activity that sounds fun#but if one person IS a professional painter then of course it can't help but also be about Making Good Art when one person can#and it sucks. cause like. man. that does sound cute. that does sound fun! but john won't get to do it#and I also wouldn't get to do something like this because I'm Too Good which ruins things for everyone else#just bums me out. people just can't help looking at creative hobbies and going 'oh I could never do that [clearly feels bad about it]'#.... oh. well... that's not really true and I hate that you feel that way. I'm sorry for putting a little damper on your day. I guess#posts from facebook#irl frens#(and family)#about me

#I feel like this was really pervasive when I was early in figuring out my gender#and sucks to see it’s still around lol#hey guys you don’t have to berate yourself for being a man to try and seem ‘no threatening’ or ‘not like those scary cis men’ it’s ok#same when people are like UGH I HATE being attracted to men smh 😔 sexuality isn’t a choice bc why would I have chosen being attracted to men#alright.#I love being attracted to men and I love being a guy#skill issue I guess#.doc#delete later#sorry I’m just annoyed#also this shit sucked to hear when I was figuring things out#same rhetoric that scares people off from taking testosterone#‘aaa you don’t want to take t it’ll make you scary and masculine :((((‘#I don’t give a shit about not being a ‘pretty girl’ anymore I’m MUCH happier being a weird hairy guy#trans queer masculinity rules actually idk what to tell you#love you trans men love you gay/bi/queer men#and folks who are kind of men too

also tbh i always sympathized with the creature but i was never like, super invested in him as a fave for whatever reason. that is... starting to change, i think.
#ooc#WHICH IS GREAT i love him and he deserves the attention!!#he's so fascinating to me tbh like. he's not nearly as innocent as people say he is. and yet#considering his circumstances i find it hard to blame him for anything he did regardless...#this man(??) literally had zero (0) socialization or skills to cope with negative emotions and only knew rejection all his life#he KNEW what he was doing was wrong; but god. if i were him i'd be pissed too#the tragedy is that he had every justification to be mad at victor and i 100% agree with that but i still sympathize with both of them#in the end??? the creature deserved better and yet i can't bring myself to hate victor for being unable to give him that.#IDK I NEED TO REREAD THE BOOK IT'S BEEN LIKE 5+ YEARS#my opinions may change; i'm just speaking from memory here!!

tbh clarice's identity reveal has got me thinking about making a percy jackson au for the 9347350th time, but i still cannot imagine a SINGLE goddess who would get with thomas constantine's musty ass, and almost none of the gods feel right in my mind. maybe hermes??
alternative is that he's not actually a demigod at all and is just an ominously long-lived outside contractor who can see through the mist and hoards magical artifacts like a dragon. pretends he's a son of hecate but that's just to bolster his reputation, innit. she is Not a fan. No God is a fan. i'm kind of liking that idea more, actually.
#( ooc. ) OUT OF CIGS.#like yeah hecate is an option but i kind of love the idea that he Can't Actually Cast Magic?? he just pretends REALLY well??#tyche is my current frontrunner parent bc goddess of luck + constantine's skill with synchronicity & probability manipulation#but AGAIN that would require a goddess fucking thomas constantine and they simply do NOT have taste that bad#FUNNIEST answer would be zeus and john is the biggest disappointment that olympus has ever seen. but i hate zeus#idk man!! much to think about. much to overthink

Dnd people who hate rangers are so funny. Oh you love bards, but think rangers are useless in combat? That’s rich. Next you’ll tell me you love monks, but think rangers are too weak. What do you love sorcerers and think rangers suck?
#have we forgotten where we come from? (LOTR and Drizzt?)#I believe that all dnd classes can be unreasonably fucking good so long as you put in effort#and no you do not need to multiclass for them to be useful#more importantly the classes are meant to work together#I think like only four of the classes could work with parties entirely made up of them#which is clerics (obviously) paladins and Druids. maybe fighters if you’re tactile enough about it#also a lot of what makes a class good to play is on the DM#for instance horizon walkers are a cool ranger subclass. but they don’t have a lot going on if the dm doesn’t have a campaign setting whete#their abilities are useful#dungeons and dragons#dnd ranger#dnd#I love all the classes. I’m never going to bully people about their choices. but also. man people who hate rangers do not know what they’re#taking about#ALSO#the reasons rangers suck is not what people say#it’s because 5e gives them only abilities that work if the dm is paying attention to traveling time and tracking rules#rangers don’t really get boosts to things that are that useful if your dm is really into tonguing the rule book#but almost all the other classes do#even the Tasha alternate options aren’t that good#rangers don’t suck because they don’t do damage (they do)#or because of them being ‘less powerful rogues’ or ‘skilled in a lot but master of none’ or whatever the fuck#rangers kinda suck because dnd wants them to only know how to walk around fast#which like the 2024 rules are slightly better#I mean they’re quite a bit better#but they still suck#like idk there’s definetly still things thatre only useful if your dm wants to bed and wed the rules#but actually and I hate to say it. because I don’t like the new 5e rules. they’re kinda good for rangers. I’ll have to look at them more but#HOWEVER#I am glad they finally have a scimitar as a starting equipment option
