How does one make 3 minute eggs!?!

I cooked my eggs 9 minutes and they are STILL under cooked!

you're telling me this substantiation is trans?

THAT WHAT I BEEN SAYING ‼️‼️

WHAT IS THE HETERO EXPLANATION FOR THIS

[gretchensinister]

Babylon 5 rewatch, S1 E1: Midnight on the Firing Line

This truly was formative, my base for solving the FTL problem is jumpgates.

Landoooooo

VIR

I don't remember the little Centauri fangs--I wonder if that was kept for later episodes

Okay okay okay. They made FIVE of these Babylon stations in TEN YEARS after the Earth-Minbari war. (Despite 4 of them being destroyed/disappearing in mysterious circumstances) The political will! The logistics! THIS IS A UTOPIA

The city I live in has approximately the same population as Babylon 5 which was always useful for me in terms of envisioning scale

Deleeeennnnn (spelling???)

G'Kaaaaaaar

Oh Sinclair you military head

Chin joke=bad

Now, I do think it's possible that an ambassador might not know about an attack, official or unofficial, but I'm not involved in politics

Spoo in the first episode

I love G'Kar's outfit.

I know the first episode doesn't get into the greater history but the Narn can do WHATEVER THEY WANT to the Centauri for real IMO.

I wonder how many details were planned out in advance re: the dream.

I'm so irritated ooh your nephew cool cool cool IT'S UNIMAGINABLE what the Centauri did to the Narn, it was NOT equal.

It's so fun to see the 90s influence even in the attempt to design a futuristic space

KOSH MY BELOVED

KOOOOOOOSH

I want to make that costume so bad I want to have that cosplay I just don't know hoooooooow

Vir what was the job description when you applied because I'm 100% sure it didn't account for this *gestures vaguely at everything*

Garibaldi don't do that

Of course they'll sell to anyone I bet Narn doesn't HAVE ANY MONEY after what the Centauri did, they're DESPERATE

It's very funny to see G'Kar and Sinclair before their character development/all the crazy shit that happens to them

Man I'm not paying much attention to the raiders; I don't think they end up continually important after this episode

Imagine putting on full face alien makeup for essentially an extra role

Oh so since the Centauri have had Ragesh 3 for a century they should just keep it now???? This situation sucks on all levels

The spaceships look fine when you watch them on a small screen like the 90s intended

So from this we can learn: 1) Ambassadors aren't supposed to have guns on Babylon 5 2) they will make sure to have a gun anyway

Sinclair you may be right and the Narn may be wrong in this case but I want to slap that smug look off Sinclair's face so bad

I didn't realize that we got Ivanova's backstory in the first episode

LMAO I want to know Delenn's thought process accepting Garibaldi's invitation. Love her being like "hmmm" about popcorn! Also okay this makes Garibaldi a sort of different guy than maybe the impression was supposed to be. Like in 1993 the Looney Tunes were ~40-year-old cartoons, and in the early 2000s they still aired on Cartoon Network. A guy who's into 40 year old stuff is like a regular nostalgic guy. Garibaldi's character, however, is into 300 YEAR OLD MEDIA. 300 YEAR OLD HUMOR is his (second) favorite thing in the whole world. That's a completely different kind of guy. Imagine a guy today obsessed with stuff from the 1720s. That's a completely different kind of weirdo.

…Soooo…apparently they released TWO sneak peak clips for Justice League x RWBY: Super Heroes & Huntsmen, Part Two and in watching them both, I noticed some things…

Although, the last movie ended on our heroes still being in Atlas Kingdom, judging the background of this room RWBY are in, they seem to be at Shade Academy in Vacuo this time!

For those who were speculating, this confirms that the timeline for the second half of the movie will take place shortly after RWBY (and Jaune’s) return from the Ever After in V9.

“Time dilation. Must be longer there than here.” “We’ve had some experience with that ourselves.”

Weiss’s comment to Flash time dilation . I don’t know whether or not that was a little callback to V3 when Weiss was with Winter and was gushing about her being close to learning time dilation (back when they were overloading her with new add-ons for her hereditary glyph semblance) or a nod to the end of V9 when the group returned to Remnant from the Ever After and time had fast forward a bit upon the group’s return?

Yang’s comments about Ruby being “driven” and “confident” since they got back. Got back from where? It has to be Ever After, right? That’s the only place that makes sense since it can’t be Atlas at all considering that Atlas is long gone.

Ruby’s arc from the events of the Ever After following her “re-awakening” isn’t as over or complete as the ending of V9 implied (and that some fans complained about given how much they built up her whole breakdown/ mystical suicide). Despite using the words “driven” and “confident” to describe Ruby’s new demeanour, you can definitely tell by Yang’s clear annoyance in the scene that what she truly means is that Ruby has become reckless since their return from the Ever After, seeming to throw herself into the fray of fighting the Grimm without any thought for her own well being anymore or even life beyond doing what she could to save Remnant.

Yang’s remark prompting Ruby about not caring about “the future” seems rather poignant. She says this while Ruby just acts all nonchalant about it. She just gives a rather dismissive response and continued to twiddle with her Scroll.

“...As long as we save Remnant, what else is there?”

What else…is there???

… Oookay, what in the fudge?

This feels SO WEIRD to hear Ruby Rose says especially if I’m correct about this taking place AFTER V9.

This is such a hand-wavy yet very depressing thing for Ruby to say. While she regained her confidence in herself from the Ever After, let’s address the clear elephant in the room that Ruby went from feeling overwhelmed by her situation to having a breakdown where she pushed away all of her friends and loved ones including one friend (Little) who was actively trying their best to help her to feeling like she wasn’t good enough to be the hero she wanted to become anymore to the point of stating outright that she didn’t want to be herself anymore to committing the equivalent of suicide to going through a whole ass rebirth scenario where she comes back as just herself, claiming that she was enough as she was to regaining her self confidence to… now becoming SO CONFIDENT AND DRIVEN that, according to her sister, she’s now reckless to the point of throwing herself into the lines of danger without any concern for her future cause according to Ruby…so long as she saves Remnant, there isn’t anything else for her to live for?

I mean she doesn’t word it like that exactly but the implication is definitely there. At least that’s how I interpreted it.

As always, I could be reading too deep into this or misreading the whole situation entirely. But regardless, I will say that I do oddly like this new Ruby.

I’m intrigued that we’re getting this little teaser of the Vacuo Arc and aftermath of the Ever After from the crossover movie in respect to Ruby’s side of the story. As a firm Little Red stan, this squiggle mesiter is always down to see some good ole character development for my favourite little red rose.

Hoooooooowever… at the same time, I’m also disappointed. Disappointed in the fact that we are getting this development in the crossover movie of all things.

What honestly would’ve been more compelling is if the RWBY movie was used to be the final chapter to RWBY as a whole. Similar to the Tales of Arcadia franchise which used their first and only movie to close off the entire series, three stories in the making (albeit rather disappointingly), it would’ve been cool if this movie was created to finally give RWBY the proper send off it needs, especially since we’re unsure of a renewal for V10.

But unfortunately…this isn’t the case here. This isn’t just a RWBY movie. It’s RWBY plus the Justice League and based on the trailers, the movie takes place in the JL universe for most of it in contrast to the first half of the film.

I dunno man. I like that they decided to tease a potential first look at V10 in the crossover movie. However at the same time…I wish they didn’t since; if the movie is hinting at a continuation of Ruby’s arc from the Ever After, I’m so mad that we’re getting it in a movie where outside of her core team, she won’t be sharing this new development with characters from her world and story i.e the rest of the hero team from Remnant.

As the teaser clips states, JNR are out for this movie. And there is a slight chance that Oscar may not be featured in this second part either.

So basically, the JL are probably gonna be the stand ins for JNOR and it wouldn’t surprise me if the only mature farm boi that Ruby will bond with/receive encouraging words of wisdom and guidance for this film will be Clark Kent/Superman.

I mean, don’t get me wrong, I do like Clark as a DC fan. It’s just that, again; he ain’t the super powered farm boy I wanted to see Ruby team up with for this movie.

This is just my way of saying it's things like this that makes me wish we got a RWBY centric film instead of it being a crossover.

I'm still gonna watch the second part when it's finally out (and I can find a site to watch it on) but still, y'know what I mean?

At least this makes me more invested in the second part of the crossover film cause I am curious where Ruby's story will kick off from here and will be left off for a potential V10 renewal.

Omg i forgot hoooooooow obsessed i was with doc oc....FUCK YEAH!

[anisaanisa]

I've always wanted to know what gaslit an entire fandom into making this word so prevalent. Where was it born? What birthed it? Somebody. Anybody. Inquiring minds (moi) want to know 🕵️‍♀️

Is InuYasha's usage of 'wench' for Kagome canon? Because I see it in almost every fanfic. Thanks.

No, it’s not canon.

Inuyasha has used the word “bitch” precisely once.

INUYASHAくたばりやがったのか、あのアマ。Kutabariyagatta no ka, ano ama.So that bitch bit it, huh.

… and it was in reference to Kikyou.

Everything else he calls her are various creative translations of “temee”.

“Temee“ literally just means "you”.  However, it’s a form of “you” implying that the speaker is talking down to the listener, therefore it typically gets translated as “you bitch” or “you asshole” or some such thing.

However, as implied in the panel above, Inuyasha actually only ever calls Kagome “temee“ in response to being "sat”.  It’s not something he calls her on a regular basis.  He just calls her “you” or “Kagome”.

Although, in the first 10-15 chapters, he calls her “woman”, that stops pretty quickly once she proves herself to him and he never calls her that again.  So, any fanfic that has him calling her “woman” or “bitch” or pretty much anything other than “you” or “Kagome” in normal conversation has it wrong.
