i bought M'aiq the Liar at work today
his face is so fucking goofy you arent ready for it yet
i only spent a dollar on him to save him from the dumpster without losing my job and that is exactly how much he's worth
anyway here he is
#skyrim#m'aiq the liar#he was $1#bc the world's shittiest shoplifter opened a blind bag of fandom figs#and took all the stupid shitty marvel and star wars figs#but left m'aiq behind?????#i dont care about the stealing!!!#i care about the lack of taste!#why did you bother with baby yoda or w/e when m'aiq was right there!!!#also protip: if ur gonna open a blind bag and just steal what you want?#just take the whole bag#literally if i didnt pay $1 for him just to be seen on camera paying anything#he would've gone straight to the dump with the packaging#no point in leaving any behid tbh#oh also the box has all his 'lies' on it so that's cool

Keep seeing so many “hot takes” about Zukka in particular that basically boil down to “this ship isn’t logical because the characters don’t interact enough” and all I gotta say is…
Shipping has nothing to do with canonical interactions.
If you are limiting ships to “do these characters interact a lot” then fella, I gotta say, you are invalidating so many ships and limiting your imagination to embarrassing extents.
It’s fine if you don’t like a ship. It’s fine if you don’t get a ship. Clearly a ship you aren’t interest in isn’t for you.
But no ship is invalid just because there isn’t much or any interaction between the characters.
#zukka#but this goes for any ships really#lack of much interaction doesn’t invalidate a ship#Zuko and Yue don’t really ever interact but that’s a great ship!!#Azula never meets Yue but I’ve seen it shipped and it’s done well!!#why do you care so much about ships you don’t like and invalidate them in spaces meant for everyone?#you’re just bringing in negative vibes and it’s a shit take anyway#live and let ship#ask a friend in a private if you gotta grouse#feel free to also ask in an open way like ‘why do you guys ship this’ if you want stranger’s opinions#but don’t be like ‘this ship doesn’t make sense and you’re grasping’ when shipping is about transformation#like honestly#not naming any names or touching those posts myself because I don’t like stirring shit#but it’s honestly so ridiculous to shit talk ships#venting all my frustrations with fandom right now#kids these days don’t realize you can ship characters who have no connection whatsoever#or characters with themselves#or characters from different canons and media#and it’s all still valid even if it’s not for you#because your tastes will never completely coincide with someone else’s#just accept that you don’t like a ship shrug it off and move on to what you do like#I swear you will be so much happier and leave fandom a much happier place if you do#it’s all about finding things you like and staying in your own lane

new jane seymour fanfic just dropped!
where are the history books that call her a ‘sweet, docile angel’? name them.
#i’ll wait :)#we literally know nothing about this woman so we simply cannot claim with any certainty#what her feelings or motivations were. we simply don’t know.#‘jane was not a nice lady AT ALL’ well.. were any of them?#likewise why is she assumed to be inauthentic/manipulative when we simply don’t know?#while anne’s supposed ‘independence’ is unquestionably accepted as wholly genuine.#maybe jane was manipulative but there’s no evidence either way#seems weird to single her out as not nice when we know the least about her.#this ‘well ACTUALLY—‘ attitude about jane feels so spiteful.#people seem SO bitter and resentful over jane’s supposed glowing reputation… that doesn’t exist.#historians/authors either don’t care about her or they talk about her with disdain#& that there is a slowly burgeoning group of fans is not really indicative of her general historiographical record.#by and large jane is the least popular wife. we all KNOW this. there is no need to pretend.#there is no need to be this reactionary and defensive.#(ALSO:#‘genuinely lovely people were a rarity in the tudor court—#—they all backstabbed each other for a taste of power’#i need you to understand that tudor people… were people.#not every single person was/is a cartoonishly evil power-hungry machiavellian schemer.#many lacked the ability and/or the inclination. almost all lacked the agency — especially many women.#for the majority the court world was merely a place and system of employment.)#💿🐴

#i will warn you only once: tsc spoilers#literally just finished it as i am drafting this its 5am where i live#so you may be subjected to some nonsense#that all being said i have thoughts.and feelings#the kevin was lovely and tasted delicious! jean defending him at every turn even when he swears to hell and back he'll kick his ass#the kevjean was surprising i was only half expecting that#the dog metaphors i have to say i need this one cashed in. nora run me my check#im joking of course dont quote me on it#jean taking kevins promise to the end and living on it is seriously so. well.#'be careful with him' 'take kevin's name out of your ignorant mouth' 'you promised me'#also kevin getting called the court's queen had me tender and on my back oml#jean's relationship with the trojans is sweet and he is very interesting and complicated#a character with many moving parts im sure#there were a few things i did not care for#namely jeremy and the trojans felt remarkably flat to me bar lucas (by far the most interesting) and catalina on occasion#i didnt quite enjoy jeremy's pov and felt like he spent perhaps way too much time worrying over jean? if that makes sense#i wish he had some more complexity to him or really anything to catch a hook on#all we know is hes attractive and smiley and gets along terribly with his family#so much of his character is sucked out by jean he didnt feel like much more than a plot device to me#which i wouldnt mind if jeremy wasnt the literal main character alongside jean#i was living for everything jean thought but had to drag myself through jeremy's pov if im honest#uuuuh what else. neil! funny. deranged. i have to love him#andrew couldnt give less of a fuck about jean which is funny as all fuck#two bugs placed in the same habitat ignoring each other#the thing with elodie i thought was complicated. i wish we knew some more about her or that shed been mentioned a little earlier#but im assuming thats a topic to be revisited#uuuuuuuh yeah so thats most of it. i think my first thought and the one that sticked out the most to me is that the book felt remarkably#pedestrian#not necessarily in a bad way#it lacked to me one of the main appeals of aftg which were the numerous interesting side characters

“well, buggy fans are willing to forgive much worse behavior from other characters they ship him with, so that hasn't stopped me!”
And that’s the thing I kinda don’t like about buggy ships tbh. I don’t think I like them just because most of them are…. Extremely mean to Buggy? I never had favourite character like this. That’s why I kinda want just one person who would really liked my blorbo? Like does Buggy even has one genuine relationship rn? I was naive because I did thought of his crew as a little more genuine, and after marine ford my stupid brain did thought at least mr3 is not gonna left him the minute buggy out of picture. And Oda destroyed my hopes every single time. He’s not that unlikable in canon :(
(context)
yeah, you know, that's fair! some people like for their fave to suffer, and some want to protect them from the cruelty of the world. i'm somewhere in between, myself; i can enjoy a bit of buggy schadenfreude, but only if i feel like he really earned it, reaping what he sowed and all that.
…and tbh, i think this lack of genuine relationships is another reaping/sowing situation.
like, buggy had genuine connections in his youth and they all abandoned him (save one, but let's not get distracted by shuggy rn). is it any wonder he was disillusioned, and sought out bonds based on self-interest and false images of his own greatness?
when buggy was a moderately-sized fish in a small pond, he must have felt just as sure as you, anon, that he'd found the best possible crew this way. who needs sincerity or personal loyalty?! all you need is a badass facade and a common goal!
the downside to such superficial bonds only makes itself known when the illusion breaks down, or when it's no longer in someone's self-interest to support buggy.
#tos answers#one piece#buggy#fwiw i do think the og buggy pirates care for him#but they're the same east blue guys they always were… tf can they do against guys with billion berry bounties#well they aren't getting beaten up by those guys so it's easier for them to be content with the current state of things#anyway. imo this is one of the themes of one piece rearing its head.#luffy's got sincere connections everywhere because he is straightforward and caring and powerful & ppl respond to that#(ditto koby! though he seems unaware of his impact & influence)#blackbeard is straightforward about his *lack* of care & has a lot of indifferent or fearful followers who just want a taste of his power#seems like that could break bad real easily but it hasn't just yet#buggy lies about caring and his power & has both sincere followers (lie-believers) and opportunistic coattail riders (lie-disbelievers)#& that situation *has* broken bad a bit! but mihawk knew what he was doing when he suggested maintaining the facade#—buggy makes bad choices#—the power of friendship#—narrative foils#—people being mean to buggy#—pragmatic characters

so since capsaicin works by causing pain basically so does that mean that superman can't taste spicy food? or since all his senses are enhanced does that mean spicy food is extra spicy for him?
#i lean towards he can't taste the spiciness and then i wonder what he tastes instead#dc comics#superman#clark kent#this has been a shitpost#nobody cares about this but i think about it all the time#i NEED to know what superman experiences when he eats spicy food and what he thinks of it#is it just ok? like normal food but lacking the big flavor it should have so its just bland?

is the dm anime worth watching? i love the manga but the anime seems kind of wobbly from what i can tell
i think it would be tedious to binge but is nice as an one episode per week deal. especially if you're like me & remember the general plot but not the fine details, it's not bad, though not particularly good either
#tbh the visuals are sort of lacking & it's too saturated for my taste & i'm not happy with a few seiyuu choices#but also it can present a new perspective for example i didn't care about chilchuck and namari in the manga but grew to like them#in the anime. the manga is better of course but the anime is nice too#a pity it has no ost to speak of tbh it doesn't feel like a big project put together by people who know what they're doing just a quota#to be filled which works i guess. again one ep per week is a perfect settlement#anon

Man I'm gonna get so cancelled when these people find out how boring I find Greek mythology and how little I actually know or care about it
#sfw#personal#ok to reblog#this post was prompted by a post saying “we all know what Achilles did to Obscurius the Unknown in the famous tale The Neverheardofit”#and like I am interested in the post and curious what it's saying about cultures and attitudes of the time but I don't know this stuff#and I really don't care about that part. I don't care about the literal stories enough to analyze the interesting abstracts.#and like that's fine you don't have to cater to my obscure lack of taste all I'm saying is it's weird how universal it seems to be#and here I am being an exception for no particular reason. like always I guess.

sometimes i forget that there are people who listen to the mountain goats for the “quality” “music” and don’t consider anything anything older than ahwt to even be listenable…
#which isn’t to say that i DON’T think they have objectively good songs#but just that the quality of the music itself is beside the point for me#it’s completely unrelated to the point#aggressively outing myself as a ‘lyrics guy’ here but that is legitimately all that i care about#when i listen to a song (any song not just tmg) all i’m asking is are the lyrics good and is the singer selling it#if the answer to both of those questions is yes then i love the song#if the answer to the lyrics question is no but they’re REALLY selling it then maybe#but if they’re not selling it then it’s a lost cause#even if the lyrics are great tbh#which is what i like tmg for#because JD sells everything SO hard#but yeah recently saw somebody say they don’t listen to anything older than ahwt and don’t even find ahwt that good#and i’m just like wow. we leave in different worlds…#not that i’ve listened to all the new stuff#but i cannot believe that it’s SO good that it would make me forsake everything that came before#it’s clearly just a taste difference#some people don’t like the rougher stuff that lacks a full band#but I’m not here for the music… i’m here for the poetry which just happens to be in musical form#i’m glad JD can also create full songs and has fun with that - i’m happy for him and for those who enjoy that specifically#but i just think. it’s all good.#thank you and goodnight 😌

neuvillette is so cute i sometimes forget that he’s supposed to be this all-powerful dragon sovereign of water and the highest judge in all of fontaine like he’s just so endearing to me 😭
#he perks up at the mention of melusines#does water tasting as a hobby#is very socially awkward due to his lack of interpersonal relationships but still tries his best given the situation#he’s everything to me y’all i adore him so much 😭😭😭#he’s already one of my faves but i think he’s getting on the same levels of favouritism as i do with kazuha and alhaitham#and to think that i did not care about him At All when his leaks first got out and when the overture teaser dropped LIKESHKSJS#oh how the turn tables indeed#lou.txt

Just glad you’re okay (P1 | P2 | P3 | B) (Patreon)
Bonus:
#Doodles#SCII#NEJ#Captain Sterling#KUP#The come down from everything :) NEJ is awkward but he cares!#Sterling was probably a surprise since y'know - he comes and goes - usually bringing little gifts lol#I've pretty much already decided that I'm not going to complete ZEX's quest when I get there :') I can at least pretend I leave him stuff!#Picks up the occasional trinket he can salvage - secretly just using ZEX as storage so he can have a museum of human things#Oh no that's sad actually :'D He can only bring so much human stuff with him but ZEX can and wants to host a bunch of things#Puts up ''tasteful'' art around it and Sterling's just like :/ 'kay. That's not what I had in mind but I guess beggars can't be choosers#Lol#Anyway this isn't about him! Mostly ♪#VUX and their lack of touch boundaries I swear haha is it a cultural thing#Sterling doesn't really mind he's just a bit surprised ♪ Probably just thinks NEJ is being curious about their differences haha#He's looking out for you Captain! In his own small way#Later sneaks up to KUP and gives him a surprise hug upon seeing he's alive and well and then promptly bolts haha#There is something especially cute about a trunk-tuck below another VUX's trunk haha ♪ NEJ is short so he slots into place perfectly!#KUP so confused lol I can't imagine there's all that much friendly touch outside of maybe private rendezvous haha#The impropriety ♪

“This game is too linear and story-centered!”
“This game focuses too much on dialogue and relationships and not enough on combat!”
Well, damn, what’s it called? Sounds right up my alley lol.
#ppl know games have genres right?#and can be about more than shooting folks in the face?#like i get if more story-focused games aren’t your cup of tea#but a game isn’t automatically bad just because it chooses#storytelling over combat#or a more linear journey over something open world#it’s about personal taste my guys#like personally what got me into games was the idea#of ‘playing a story’ rather than reading or watching one#it was just a cool concept#and to this day i tend to care about story and character interaction#than the quality of combat builds i can make#but you don’t see me out here critiquing dmc#for lacking a deeper narrative#i know that’s not what the series is ultimately about#(tho lowkey i wish it were i love those games)

@dragonpyre So I accidentally closed out on my previous post and I'm way to tired to rewrite it from memory so I'll just sparknotes it.
I think you'd enjoy that one stupid volcano that's like a pimple in Russia (I forgot the name, I was practically comatose when I watched the documentary). That volcano genuinely pisses me off because it's not, and never was, connect(ed) to Earth's magma but has a history of explosions. The volcano isn't anywhere near the Ring of Fire and is extremely inland, and is just in a really odd place.
I forgot what else I wrote (sleep deprivation for the win!) but I do remember putting these photos in.
Then I talked about how I didn't realize my flight was going by Mt. Saint Helen's and that I grew up watching the NatGeo VHS of it. I didn't even recognize the volcano from the actual volcano, I recognized the flow path first because I thought 'wow that looks a lot like Mt. Saint Helen's path flow' then I was like. 'Well I am in Washington right now.' Which quickly became; 'No way, that's Mt. Saint Helens flow path!!! That's Mt. SaiNT HELENS!!!!!!!!' And I would have legitimately screamed if I wasn't on a public flight but my seat mate did look at me weirdly for practically gluing myself to the window for like half an hour and taking photos like a mad person.
That was taken after I realized what I was seeing so I hope it's understandable that I recognized the flow path first instead of the white cap lolol
There really is something humbling about seeing the damage still so easily visible even decades later.
reminder to worldbuilders: don't get caught up in things that aren't important to the story you're writing, like plot and characters! instead, try to focus on what readers actually care about: detailed plate tectonics
#i also have photos above arizona#and the badlands#and some mountain ranges of varying types#and oceans and some islands#i can also rate dirt and sand based on taste#i love tormenting my friends with that one lol#i can also talk about the different humidities and tempuratures ive lived in#which range from ~50% to 95+% humidity to temperatures ranging -52°F through 125°F#which is -46°C and 51°C for every country except 2#please send help though#my family is getting concerned about my lack of temperature awareness because i will legitimately not notice#when im standing in below freezing temps with short and short sleeves on. and also wear warm socks and drink hot tea#during summer. it does have some perks though. like the heat not destroying my spirit when the ac breaks#ill take frostbite any day though. mostly because im used to treating myself for it and heat stroke is terrible#like seriously though. if you want more photos ill be happy to oblige#my friends dont really care for rocks and my url is like that for a reason lol

being home I'm really realizing wow the nature outside is so much more beautiful than I could ever experience back in the city. the interior of this house though. atrocious. nobody likes this
#the yellow walls...the shitty counters...the heavy dark furniture and consistently poor lighting#the utter lack of attention paid to the arrangement of painting and artwork#not to sound pretentious but my place looks fantastic and I'm not even good at this shit I just cared enough to try#WHY SO MANY YELLOW WALLS#my dad picked the ugliest tacky heavy wide gold frames for his nature paintings. SO out of place and tasteless#the placement of every single piece of artwork and photograph is an absolute travesty#the kitchen cabinets are also falling apart but that's fine. I could accept that#WHY DID YOU PAINT THE WALLS YELLOW#the best thing about this house is how much space it has because there ARE a lot of people living here#big kitchen big pantry etc.#but my god. if I had a quarter million dollars and free reign it would look so much more coherent and beautiful and pleasant to live in#the actual best room in the house is my sister's bc she has taste and she pushed for nice stuff#my poor brothers are crammed into small rooms with exposed wood beams#my other sister has my old room which is nice bc she has a ton of room#and they all have doors that lock and a/c which EYE never had growing up lol#HOWEVER the a/c is controlled by the system on the other side of the house 😭#man. old houses#cor.txt
