I love when Sam is dumb, Dean is lazy, Cas is mean, or Jack is ruthless. It’s like getting your favorite skittle from a bag.
#mostly cause fandom like to either look away from these moments#or rake the characters over the coals for daring stray from the proper path#(ex: dean can’t even watch a horror movie marathon in his room after being possessed by michael Thee Archangel)#cause it’s seen as Wrong#dumb sam is just funny cause he’s savant-like in other areas and it entertains me greatly ex: WHY ARE PLANETS ROUND#literally this is how it can be for hyper-intelligent ppl who have big gaps in knowledge from having a tumultuous upbringing#mean cas is overt... i'm still not sure why ppl think it doesn't count when cas does it it's a little bit hilarious#and ruthless jack is politely looked away from in favor of a nougat toddler stereotype which doesn't even really exist (that's NOT jack!)

i can't sleep my brain and body have been all fucked up this week and i'm laying here at 430 being so PLAGUED by the fact that my life's 3 main hyper fixations have been mcr spn and dnp and not only that but the fact that fiction as a whole will never have anything like destiel again, the internet will never reproduce something like phan. celebrities will NEVER be able to do frerard again. i'm not insane. these are the big 3 and not just because these are my favorite things. there are endless amounts of ships and pairings and fics and lore but literally. the specific experience of living through all of these in one lifetime. no one else will ever have that...except us
#IM NOT INSANE#i say fiction bc a movie cannot do destiel#no one would WRITE a destiel.#and i mean in the way they went about it#destiel only exists in the way it does bc of a very specific set of circumstances#that cannot be replicated#dan and phil are an insane thing to experience#watching them open up over 15 years is like#but we will never be truly satisfied#they'll NEVER really address it in the way everyone wants#and the mystery fuels their popularity#and it's NOT a mystery#but like the fact that they won't address it head on ever#is like being edged#and frerard listen it's frerard#frerard was once the number 1 rpf ship in terms of fics#loop has overtaken that#*kpop#and larry maybe idfk#but bts are not boinking each other#frerard HAVE to have done something at some point#it's like crazy to even try to deny franks feelings#please i want to sleep#but like#how did the first 25 years of the 21st century give us.#all of this at once#it's like infuriating#does anyone hear me#does anyone know

I don't know where I'm from. My earliest memory is arriving. I was so lucky they found me! They took me in, raised me like one of their own, and when I was ready, they made me their princess.
#mario movie#mario movie spoilers#super mario bros#princess peach#super mario bros movie#super mario bros movie spoilers#cherrysip edits#mario movie was like ' let me just drop some wild new lore in here and then not come back to it in any way' lolol#DOES PEACH HAVE PARENTS BACK IN THE REGULAR WORLD THAT MOURN HER TO THIS VERY DAY????#i don't know how feasible this would be but it feels like you could do some research to look up reports of missing children matching her#description over the last couple of decades and see if anything intriguing comes up :O#but i do love how this makes the relationship between peach and the toads so much more emotional and meaningful#they're not just her subjects. they saved her and gave her a loving home!!! they are her family and she would do anything for them!!!#they cared for her and now she cares for them even if it requires self-sacrifice#(another intriguing detail: the castle already exists here. did the toads have another monarch before this???)#(have they just been making unsuspecting humans wandering through the pipe royalty for hundreds of years????? HMM)

band au rahhhhhhhhhhh
#i wanted to draw the other guardians too but this would be a good start#ok so#tsuna starts his band. yamamoto bass and gokudera keys and tsuna suprisingly drummer and also lead vocal. reborn appears out of nowhere-#being “youre not your full potential so i will drain you till youre like a fish in a dehydrator until you become the best out there.”#thats about it#but i just like how drumming singers are like extremely good music people because drumming is already hard. and singing too???#absolutely insane i might say. tsuna would do this (bc reborn told him so)#he does not want to be the best but reborn exists in the paro for a reason#reborn is like maybe a famous musician who faked his death then did whatever he wanted to do while he was “alive”. then he got tsuna as his#apprentice and so so. oh yeah also whiplash (the movie) reference bc holy shit its so good. for me at least. and reborn would make tsuna go#that kind of crazy. like training until drenched in sweat from morning to night or whenever hes available. bc he knows he has potential#he just need someone to push him beyond his expected limit#btw 8059 implied#gokudera joined the band first bc yeah then comes yamamoto for fun as he had to rest from playing baseball a bit too enthusiastic#gokudera hated him so much for like being dumb??? (the goofy ah laugh) but then the two dated even before reborn made a move on tsuna#its very funny but they work it out#i was also thinking if the band ever do solos or do something not as the whole band 8059 will have their own album. itll be great#for genre im not sure?? lets just say alt rock electrojazz????#no idea but maybe ill make a playlist. maybe#sawada tsunayoshi#reborn#yamamoto takeshi#gokudera hayato#8059#r27

Okay I saw more of your art and had to come back (if it’s okay)
Maybe this time….King Marty? Like in a kings outfit with the septor
and crown and stuff? Idk
no problem at all! i'm just happy you enjoy :D
anyone with any remote knowledge of historical dress from any vague period or region please avert your eyes.

#im having a real doc brown crude model moment here over the fit LMAO.#marty mcfly#bttf fanart#bttf#back to the future#not Exactly what you asked for? i could not bear to draw the fancy stick alas. and it's more of a prince vibe than a king vibe#bc if this guy held any sort of significant position of power something would combust#ik it's a silly doodle but of course i gotta make up some context bc that's part of the fun. YAP SESSION WARNING#i was thinking that doc and marty were dicking around somewhere in a place and period of time with a monarchy. for Science#and for one reason or another he ends up getting mistaken for royalty or something. may or may not be related to how straight his teeth are#so they drag his ass back to the palace and marty has No Fucking Clue what's happening. meanwhile doc is on the verge of a stroke#i think it would be really funny if some princess got infatuated with marty and now he has the plot of the first movie on his hands again#except instead of him ceasing to exist it's like. the entire history of a country#so doc's trying to get him out of there and marty's trying to let this chick down gently bc he doesn't want her to like. kill him or smth#and also there's probably a tannen thrown in there too bc why the hell not#i don't even like royalty aus that much for this fandom but somehow i've got a decent amount of thoughts about this LMAO.#you asked for a silly doodle and somehow it came with a whole fic idea too. whoops#anyone want to take this idea and run with it feel free to#kit does an art#kit yap session#<- bc of the sheer amount of tag on this

If you're going to criticize jews but your entire criticism hinges on jews not only being all white but also being treated as white all the time, your criticisms are unbaked and your cornerstone of politics relies on antisemitism, considering how quickly and easily you fall for it
#jumblr#jewish politics#personal thoughts tag#antisemitism#antisemitism tw#as a white converting person/jew in progress: the antisemitism ive faced (even how MILD it is) has still shown me that i am being separated#i could not even imagine being a jew of color where your existance is treated as an impossibility or as something contradictory#many of the progressive types i have been around still fall for this frankly antisemitic idea#feel like this could be worded better so if anybody (especially jews of color) want this post: share if you please (/genuine)#at the very least it shows me that all you have done to expose yourself to jewishness is like...#...a movie where the jewish character is like. from brooklyn and is pale and Looks Jewish By Your Standards#i really don't like talking about antisemitism (who does.) but it's important to me#not just because i face it (mildly) as a jew-in-progress but because JEWS ARE PEOPLE AND LIKE ALL PEOPLE ARE DIVERSE#and i see this exact post (almost) from jews and this is a problem that's probably as old as time but that doesn't make it right#and like.. 'if youre going to criticize jews' like people are going to be normal and not antisemitic about it. im just bad at starting posts

I'm also just thinking about how people's frustration with The Bear this season in general and not just with SydCarmy is so indicative of how little people understand about story writing.
I got my BA in fiction writing which doesn't make me the world's leading expert or anything but I know enough to know that The Bear is exceptionally well-written and most of the complaints about this season stem from not knowing anything about writing a story.
And on top of this, the same people who don't know anything about writing a story are used to consuming really bad stories because right now, we're in one of the worst eras of television and honestly, writing in general, ever.
Because right now there's no expectation or requirement for a show or book to be well-written before production or publication. There's no requirement for it to actually be good, or for it to even make any sense at the writing level. All that matters is that people will watch it or read it and since people can't tell the difference between good writing and bad writing and largely aren't watching or reading for that reason anyway, who cares?
It's just an endless cycle.
Audiences don't recognize nor want good writing > Producers and publishers don't require nor pursue good writing > Writers that ultimately become successful can't nor need to write well > And the cycle starts over.
And because people are so used to bad writing, and can’t tell the difference between good and bad writing, and don’t want good writing anyway, when a show like The Bear comes around, a show that doesn’t hold their hand and explain everything to them or doesn’t spoon-feed them exactly what they want, a show that isn’t going to sacrifice the narrative through-line just to cut to the romantic chase - people are not only confused but pissed.
And then the most frustrating part of all this is that people then come to the conclusion the writer’s are bad at writing.
It is so bleak to be an aspiring writer right now, I swear.
#the bear#sydcarmy#being a hater#does no one remember game of thrones? how I met your mother? Episodes 7-9 of Star Wars?#those are just the ones I can think of right now but there are many#this is what I mean by being in an era of bad writing#shows and movies and books by people who don’t understand their own craft#aren’t you tired?#don’t you want more?#don’t you think you deserve more?#I can’t tell you how much fucking hope the bear gives me#how much of a relief it is to see writers with a clear understanding of their own story#and the ability and willingness to follow through on it#thank god#I’m so serious#thank god a show like this exists even though no one will appreciate it

huntclaire divorce au. everything is exactly the same but wait i was going to make a joke here but i’m actually very invested in this
#just imagine how WEIRDER they’d be about each other. this is crazy#i need them to divorce and then hunt makes a movie immediately after and he casts claire as the lead. and the movie is weirdly personal#and everyone in the cast is like. is this movie about the divorce. no it is not. but yes it also is. hunt and claire are unaware#there's a brazilian director who divorced his wife and then cast her in his next movie andthe movie is the greatest love letter ever.to her#this is what i'm aiming for here. do you see my vision? okay so they argue all the time on set. she does NOT follow his direction#this is why i divorced you by the way you were always like. saying stuff. you're always saying stuff! you're annoying and pathetic and stup#they cannot even be NEAR each other. need to talk to either of them? do not do it while the other oneis in the room.they WILL make it weird#they will start bickering and they will forget about you i am so sorry. if they try to be civil it's like. this was so thoughtful of you!#i wish SOME PEOPLE were like this. i was actually very thoughtful you were the one who was always demanding attentionWHATof COURse I WAS!?#hunt keeps his wedding ring in his side pocket. claire loves calling him her stupid ex husband. ew my wretched ex husband.#whole time they can't keep their hands off each other. which could mean anything#why did they get divorced? no one has any idea. no one knows anything about these two actually. why would he cast her. why would they marry#why are they torturing everyone. is this like A Thing to them. yes. claire gives him cold coffee every time and he drinks it every time jus#so she doesn't get the satisfaction. also you should NOT interfere if they're arguing because then it's going to be YOUR FAULT#you may ask. hsslilly! what's the difference between this and canon huntclaire. well they're actually divorced here. see.#this means something to me. and to them too. plus they actually mean this on some level. normal huntclaire are doing a very convoluted bit#here claire would choke hunt with his tie if given the chance. and then they would make out. this happened like twice.#okay i'll stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#huntclaire#wait the blood necklace should still exist in this au

Amy/Rory I Saw the TV Glow au:
Amy as Maddy/Tara, who ran away and never came home, who talks about things that can't be real (the TV show, the TARDIS, a world where they're strong, a world where they're something better).
Rory as Owen/Isabel, meek and yet loyal and yet terrified of his best friend and what she means. And what she says. And what she shows him.
Doctor Who, the TARDIS, the Doctor, all wrapped up into the role of the Pink Opaque, the TV show from their youth, and something Amy grasps onto and never let's go. Something Rory abandons for a normal life.
And yet.
#there is still time.#I saw the TV glow#rose rambles#dw au#I'm less attached to Rory as Owen/Isabel (and not totally sure what pronouns to use for Owen in general)#what pronouns do you use for a character who only STARTS to understand who they are at the very end? I don't even know what pronouns I'd use#for my OWN younger self y'know?#I'm not usually one for crossovers but Curtis brought this up and#but Amy as Maddy. Man.#rip Amy you would have had a good breakdown watching isttg#also does the Doctor exist in this universe? I'm not sure. Someone has to be Mr Melancholy#so I guess either he takes on the villainous role#or Mr Melancholy is Amy's mom or one of her psychiatrists?#lots to think about. few to think about this with. my house is filled with The Plague so we're all working at 50% capacity#I feel like this leans less into the transgender themes which is a shame bc My God is that movie. So so so much.#I am trans. As you could probably guess from my username. Movie hit me like a truck.#anyways I AM soft for T4T Amy/Rory though so they can also be trans here too 👍 what is isttg if everyone is cis#its just I am most compelled by Amy as Maddy/Tara and the parallels between those two characters#nd how they could be worked into somethig like this#so

for all my babbling, my brilliant friend remains too mature of a story to me still, not because it's out of reach to me in terms of topic, but in terms of feeling and experience instead. so i'm really looking forward to being consumed by it repeatedly as i age.
#watched a maria interview and for me this is angelina jolie saying how#she still loves the clash but opera offers her space for her experience because it's immense enough to hold it#i am paraphrasing but that's what i have yet to experience with mbf#i've been going through this kind of thing a lot lately#knowing something exists and recognising it as true but feeling it so explosively when it actually happens to you#that it ends up as something completely different in your head once it exists on a personal plan with your specifics#although i often have... that big of a reaction to bad things even when i know them as my own#dylanlila.mp3#ferranteposting#like i don't think i would be as affected by maria (2024) if i haven't lived with someone#who experienced what she experienced in that movie. and i think opera is truly one of the rare forms of art#that can capture the emotional background of that... that's how i feel about lila in book 4#the ending specifically. i witnessed that flavour of pain from a close relative and i carry it in my body now too#nothing keeps you going like a long family line of 'difficult' and 'estranged' women does

#especially college#what do you mean pre-med? pre-law?#you have to go to college again to gain the actual title?????#why all the majors are four years????#some majors have more stuff and should take longer#maybe thats why you have to go twice#but it would be more easy to just go once but more than four years#also how do sports works in college?????#why do they exist in the first place? (i mean good for scholarships but what does the school wants to have a sports team)#dont you have major leagues?#and im not even going to start about highschool#(actually yes)#i really dont undestrand how those clubs works#ap classes??? does that mean advanced classes??#i need a manual of how all of these work#the education system is a lot diferent in my country#education system#tv shows#books#movies#movieblr#bookblr#usa

my dad about to accidentally inflict deep and lasting emotional scars on his young children: here’s a movie by the same people who made Totoro! It’s called Grave of the Fireflies
#a butterfly obsesses#I dunno if he has ever managed to learn that anime does NOT equal children's cartoons :|#I can't even remember what really happened after watching that movie#there was a lot of crying and my parents trying to figure out why#mostly I just remember feeling crushed by the meaningless struggle for existence#I am pretty sure that there was no like comforting from my parents#or discussion of the film#I got handed all these things I wasn't emotionally read for and nobody taught me how to deal with it#for days there was a lot of . . . sitting quietly doing my thing when suddenly overcome by horrors#it became one of those funny stories your parents tell#in hindsight I'm resentful not that we were shown the movie but that no one helped me to handle it

absolutely mesmerized by the worldbuilding in to gaze upon wicked gods and not in a good way
#every time I run the risk of being drawn into the narrative#I’ll be forcibly reminded that this is a book about fantasy unit 731#but the Japanese have been swapped for ancient romans#literally the Romans#every other culture gets a fantasy name#except this version of Ancient Rome is apparently a monarchy without any baggage about it#and also apparently has a really sterile bland lack of a culture#listen if the Roman Empire had existed well into 20th century#at the height of its power l#it would totally start beefing with the Chinese empire#but I’m#just reading this like….#okay Lindsay ellis has that video about Bright right?#which is a movie that’s also set in an alternate history with magic#and there’s a bit where she goes on a tangent about how a joke about Shrek is accidentally immersion breaking for her#this is how I feel reading about a dude named Antony Augustus#whose got a gun and has been adopted into a hereditary monarchy#that no one is even trying to pretend is a democracy#oh and Antony Augustus has a butler called Dawson#so like does not!Romano Britain exist or something?
