Still nothing gets me angrier than that stupid "the chicken is the closest relative to the T-Rex" "fun fact" because a girl bullied me with that when I was 12 and I told her, NO, the closest relatives to the chickens are dromeosaurs and the like, in fact birds and chickens ARE dinosaurs, and she was like "no, no, I saw this on the internet, it's the T-Rex" and it was the stupidest meme of a chicken evolving from a Tyrannosaurus, I told her that was stupid and I had a book (we had classes in the library because of budget reasons) right there that said otherwise, she didn't want to listen to me and anyways, she called me mean names all the time.
I got a 10 in paleontology and I'm a biologist now, so I hope you're happy with your dumb meme, Daniela.

I'm so sad the only Charles blogs left is people with schizophrenia like you, they keep posting your shit on twitter and laughing are you insane? Drivers are not allowed in board meetings. Because board meetings are for board members. You sound 12. *ourrrrrrhhhh I know Charles raised hell in there* Ferrari would lynch him. Ferrari dealt with 7x champ Schumacher who actually had half of Ferrari in his pocket, you think Charles who has less wins than Schumacher had championships is going to be mouthing off to BOARD MEMBERS? OF FERRARI? THE BOARD MEMBERS WHO HAVE A HIGHER NETWORTH THAN MULTIPLE COUNTRIES? THEY'D LITERALLY DUMP HIS BODY IN A SHALLOW DITCH YOU PEOPLE ARE MENTALLY UNDERDEVELOPED
can i use “you people are mentally undeveloped” as a chapter quote in my thesis thanks xx
#with all due respect in what world did i say Charles was sitting in on these meetings#but idk. the fact that Ferrari are not priotisimg the guy with most major sponsorships linked to him MAY be cause for concern#especially if he decides to take those sponsors elsewhere. idrk though#also what happened to tumblr being the place to hyperbole I don’t give a fuck what people are saying on twitter with all due respect#I don’t know how many times I have to say im doing this as a fun thing on the side of my unfortunately adult life#which means delusion and drama because guess what this is just my stress relief#you pissed me off I’ll admit it so congrats for that now fuck right off my blog

try putting sad romcom soundtracks on samdean and watch how perfectly it fits

The Hunger Games succeeds (and more so achieves sort of mythic effect) because it approaches dystopia through the timeless-- it (and Ballad) brings these universal ideas to a very personal lens and asks questions like "how do we begin to excuse evil in our lives" or "how do you hold on to goodness in the midst of oppression". And because it is so invested in the transcendent it lends itself to very powerful symbols, which give it that mythic feel.
Orwell's books (Animal Farm and 1984) both succeed through a very different approach to dystopia (Animal Farm isn't really a dystopia in the traditional sense but it has a lot of the elements). Orwell succeeds through real perceptive insight into the inner mechanisms of the subjects of his critiques. Orwell has vision that can cut deep into the way that things like propaganda or 'controlling the narrative' work and then, having dissected them, hold those tactics up for all to see.
And I think a lot of dystopias fall short because they get tangled up in the Idea of their story. The "what if" they've created. Either focused too much on the Issue-- too narrowly to be universal, too broadly to be revealing-- or too disconnected from anything genuine. And because they get stuck at that particular point they don't have much more to offer than "wouldn't this be bad?" And if you get a pretty good writer they can make that feel insightful but really it doesn't have much more to offer than whatever absurd YA book comes to mind first when you hear "bad dystopian novel".
#wouldn't this be bad' books (in terms of concept) really hinges on how valid the concept is#as a reflection of actual problems#because like with divergent (divergent I love you. they could never make me hate you.) the probably is really that the concept is#A. ill-defined and B. pretty far divorced from any real problem#(even granting that in dystopias in general we're dealing with hyperbole)#So if you compare it to something like Uglies#as far as how good they are as a dystopia uglies is more effective because there is a much clearer more real critique present#(though I think overall divergent is at the very least a more enjoyable book.)#but anyway actually the core of this post is not about which ya dystopias work and which don't#actually this post is about why I think handmaid's tale doesn't work for me and actually has very little of value to offer#because deep down I think that all it has to say is 'wouldn't it be bad if we made all women sex slaves?#the hunger games#1984#animal farm#and the quality of the and. yeah dude. that would be bad#and none of this is to hold either hunger games or the orwell books up as like perfect books#i love hunger games but its flawed#and as a STORY I don't think 1984 is particularly effective#but as dystopias I think they are exemplary#and there's a reason they have the staying power that they do

It's crazy how popular Naruto is. Like damn, every comment section of every video/reel has someone with a Naruto user name. And Naruto gifs in the comment section hahaha. If it's a dog with its owner video, Kiba gifs. If it's a snake video, Orochimaru gifs. All garbage videos have Sakura gifs. Every single crow video I have checked out, and I love crows so I have seen a lot, has Itachi dissolving into crows and disappearing gif lol. All the running videos have the Naruto run gif. If it's a video about someone getting yeeted, Pain sending Hinata flying gifs. If it's a fox video, Kurama gifs. All shark videos have Kisame gifs. All emo type videos/songs/fashion videos have either Sasuke or Pain gifs in their comment sections. All ramen videos have Naruto slurping ramen gifs. All wholesome teacher student videos have Naruto and Jiraiya gifs in their comment sections, and people upvote them with the intensity of me slathering butter on my toast. It's PERSONAL.
I am sure I am missing a lot. But over the years, I have seen Naruto to be more popular than any other anime. How could it be more evident? You will find Naruto fans posting Naruto shit in videos that seemingly have nothing to do with any of it but they will find a connection AND get upvoted lol. Like yes, I see One piece characters, I see Dragonball a lot because it's naturally so meme worthy lol, I see Pokemon, Gintama, Sailor Moon, but Naruto surpasses everyone in terms of visibility. It transcends every class, religion, region, caste, and demographics.
I nerd out freely on a lot of subjects online which covers a lot of ground, and I can tell you Naruto fans are all invasive, they spread faster than mould in the rainy season. I am now beginning to see JJK fans but they are mostly in comment sections of thirst trap type videos, not very widely traveled. Hehehe. And one can see why, Gege has facilitated it with such aplomb after all. But it just doesn't compare to Naruto in terms of visibility of fans.
Naruto fans would post the dumbest shit with so much confidence, it's adorable. No it really is, it shows their conviction in Naruto. This is what it inspires. Unflinching, iron clad loyalty even in the face of ridicule and potential discrimination. Hahaha. This show has something for everyone. You can relate deeply with one or the other character, you root for them and you cry for them. You rage and you laugh and sometimes you get so annoyed , you throw your slipper at the tv screen. You go absolutely insane and willingly remain insane with pride in your face. Like the hot red glowing passion. I would do a lot of things before starting an argument with an Itachi fanboy on Insta.
I could always pivot this whole thing to bring it back to my punchline - Do you still think something like this be accidental?
But this post isn't about that. It's really about appreciating what Kishi has given us. Again, as an adjunct I can also lament about how its legacy is being superlatively clusterfucked by Boruto, especially after its recent developments (the fuck was that about Himawari radiating Kurama's chakra, wtactualf??), but again, this post isn't about that.
Behold Naruto. It's not a show, it's a litmus test. If this show didn't fuck you up a little bit, it's because you have had it easy. There's a reason why there are so many Naruto fans in the world and why they don't give a fuck anymore.
Cue Evil Laughter.
#this post might seem a little hyperbolic and maybe it is#but its not that far from the truth#naruto#naruto fandom#kishimoto#i love you kishimoto even though i have enough reason to hate you as well#you know what you did...

"I think we can help each other out!"

gosh the color palette in these is great
#wheucto#art#bfdi#tpot#bfdi fanny#tpot fanny#bfdi one#tpot one#xfohv one#FINALLY ITS BEEN COMPLETED AUGH. i'm going to explode now#it was so great it vaporized my computer/silly/hyperbole (krita was actually pretty slow though. mildly annoying)#it was too big of a file to be uploaded to tumblr. i had to compress it <///3#tpot 12 spoilers#i now realize the purple i used is closer to like... a brownish color thats kind of just the faded color in between dark blue / bright red#- orange but thats okay#colors weehooo#also i wanted to try something more painterly#its kinda funny how originally i was mostly just thinking of coloring one and like most of my time was spent doing things other than that.#and then when i colored (shaded? highlighted? i did the shadow as a base color) it was like. super quick lol

i love how on one side you have alex “always barefoot (and sometimes no trousers)” gaskarth
and then on the other you have jack “wears socks/jeans in the pool” barakat
#boyfriend dynamic fr#two ends of the neurodivergent socks or no socks scale#i know jack only did this twice but it’s still funny#and i also know that he did it as a bit but this just works#jeans in the pool is absolutely heinous i adore him#also that pic of alex standing on his toes to reach the mic is so cute im screaming#i swear though alex literally never wears shoes#(that’s obviously hyperbole)#i adore them#in case that wasn’t obvious#jack#jack barakat#alex#alex gaskarth#jalex#all time low

Do you take commissions? If so, do you have a commission sheet? I’m sorry if this is an annoying ask I just really love your work lol
not annoying at all! i really really appreciate this a lot, thank you!
i have done commissions in the past on other platforms, but for now i am not taking them here. i'm not saying that i never will, because sometimes life is.. you know. Like That™️. but for now i'm steering clear of it to try and keep my passion up! 👍
#i also frankly think- and i don't say this to be rude- but i think that most folks in fandom would think my work is overpriced#because i charge somewhat more professional rates. still not a living wage. still not what you could get as a non-freelancer#(deleted a lot of rambling about prices here but if anyone does want to hear it i can go into it sometime)#kirby characters are generally far more simplistic so it would be a whole different pricing bracket#but i think expectations in fandom seem different to an original content community where people are doing this for a living#the one person i've commissioned in fandom i was so shocked at the rate i paid like... 500% what they asked me.#(that is not hyperbole. i 'tipped' 400% and it still felt like the bare minimum. you *must* tip undercharging artists.)#anyway. i have a lot of thoughts about monetising my art but at the moment this is still a no. i'm sorry!#i do really genuinely appreciate it though! if i ever open them i'll be sure to post here about it!#i'd also like to do art trades a little more regularly in the future (not rn) ; so there's that too? but we'll see. again i'll post about i#starflungs personal tag

Turns out the key to a largely enjoyable twitter experience is unfollowing 90% of the english speaking accounts
#truly unfollowing 90% of the english speaking fans i followed on twt made my timeline 500% better#not to besmirch my own people but like why are western kpop fans only ever discoursing and fighting and attacking#or being so hyperbolic and over the top with praise its embarrassing#like i really fucked those accs off and now its much better#also the korean and japanese and malaysian and chinese seungmin girls just get it... theyre so funny#the few english speakers i kept are top tier though

Why not combine them? You could post about MineDai eating pasta! Does Mine bulk with pasta? Does Daigo have a favorite pasta dish? Do they cook it together for a date night? Does Daigo even know how to boil water?? (Genuinely if you have any interest in posting about this please do, would read)
mine could, in fact, be the one who makes daigo pasta with a lil olive oil and salt and parmesan youre right ......
#snap chats#in MY world anyway ......#posts that inspired me to stop playing fps games to eat pasta instead <- im playing again later with my brother#bulking with pasta tho ..... im built like a cool stick you find in the forest but i love having pasta after a midday run ...#maybe not as a Meal meal but a quick meal just to have something afterwards yk#though would that not be lunch .... pasta lunch ... not a terrible meal for lunch actually...#idk i dont really eat lunch. unless that IS lunch.... idk dont ask me about the specific dietary habits of characters i dont eat#i dont imagine daigo has a favorite pasta dish- not that he doesnt like pasta its just not something he has strong opinions on#spaghetti's always a safe choice isnt it .... omg jollibees spaghetti ... i dont think he's had any but i just want JB spaghetti now ...#im full on pasta actually my stomach hurt <- just ate / contradicting 'i dont eat' statement#i cant imagine daigo and mine cooking together. maybe its because the thought of someone cooking with me makes me want to kill them#like im literally trying to cook here get out of the WAY. mine would be more nice of course he'd just have daigo wait if he was cooking#i should draw something with that .. i see it clearly. .. one day.#i just think itd be nice if daigo Wnated to help and insisted on it but mine's Deadass this time like. Go Away. Respectfully.#daigo'd prob joke about helping but then he gotta get hit with the Im Serious tone and now he's laughing while he walks away#like FIIIINNNEE WHATEVER guess he wont get the chairmans help <- the kitchen will not be burned down now#thats hyperbolic. moving on#youre right anon with the power of my mind i can make anything about my day related to minedai#i will be abusing this power indefinitely

Ben Solo is baby (honk honk), Daenerys Targaryen is the rightful queen of Westeros, Anders was right (bombing the Catholic Church is always morally correct), and Eridan has never done a single thing wrong thing in his life.

Imagine being able to make a decision about yourself
#This is hyperbole but referring to being a system#You’ll feel very sure of something and not quite sure and then three hours later change your mind and then a week later you’re sure again#and then three days later you’re in both camps and actively arguing about it with someone and this can be about anything as serious as#whether to go on hrt to what your favorite color is#Me: do I actually like this color now or is this just a passive influence moment#And then I have a rare clearheaded hour of the day and I can be like okay no my opinion by myself still hasn’t changed I love the color red#The experience is different from being actually indecisive or actually changing my mind though I can’t always tell which it is at first and#we still struggle with it
