#i hate this i am so fucking mad right now

[shanklin]

I was thinking about your Selfish Shellfish au and how you said Caryn had to pick one son to take with her… What if Stanley was the one to tell her to take Shermie? What if he was thinking about it like his first step to becoming less selfish? Like, he knew what was in store for him if he’s left alone with Filbrick, and figured maybe he deserved it, so he told his Ma to take Shermie and run.

Sorry, that’s just been on my mind all evening. This au is living in my head and it won’t even pay rent

Selfish Shellfish AU - Masterpost

AhhhhyHHHH aAAAAAAAAHHHHHRXDZXJDJ

ANON. YES!

Stan tells no one what Filbrick is like when they're alone. 

But surely his mother knows right? She must’ve heard them at some point. Seen the results of their talks.

Stan doesn’t think his mother would agree with his fathers methods. She got real mad that one Pa shoved him too hard.

Or maybe Stan just wasn't worth paying attention to.

Stan catches his mother quietly sobbing after the judge ruled that one of them had to stay with Pa.

When she sees him she tries to hide her tears and smile but it is a futile effort. Her smeared up mascara and red eyes give it away immediately.

Stan moves forward and she cradles him in her arms, whispering apologies.

“Why am I losing all my children? First Stanford and now- and now”

“Me.”

“Oh baby, no. I’m sorry, I-”

Stan hugs her tighter.

“It’s alright Ma. I know. Shermie is too little left with Pa and I’ll be alright. Besides, I can’t leave Glass Shard Beach! The Stan-o-War is still here. We- I need to fix it up if I want to go treasure hunting in the future.”

She starts sobbing again but doesn’t protest. Instead she kisses the top of his head and thanks him.

The ugly part of Stan wants her to refuse. Wants her to fight for him. To take him and Shermie and just run.

Stan wants to scream at her to choose him. Wants to hate her for leaving him behind. He wants to tell her he knows she hates him.

And above all else he wants to be the one sobbing in her arms and not the other way around.

But that would be selfish and he needs to stay strong if he ever wants to be worth the care.

…just as Grauntie Mabel taught him 👍

OKAY OKAY OKAY BUT IMAGINE FILBRICK GETS CUSTODY OF BOTH STAN AND SHERMIE!!!

Stan has to raise a little toddler on top of everything else and no shit, he can’t leave for Gravity Falls even if Filbrick allowed it. 

It would also mean Filbrick gets to die the first time he attempts to hurt Shermie. Older brother Stan is not fucking around.

He also has no time to deal with anything that's happening and seems to be extremely put together. Shermies' wellbeing is way more important than his own issues after all.

But the moment they’re safe and Stan isn’t solely responsible for his little brother anymore, it will all come crashing down and Stan will be barely able to function 🥰

You wanted Keiwa to get his dark side so badly huh?

Well you got it. All at the low, low price of his character being trashed on.

I hope you're all fucking happy.

[thekittyokat]

you ever just have a lot, a LOT of feelings all at once about a character and not even remotely enough words or brainpower to FORM the words to describe everything you're feeling. so it feels like you may explode. yeah

I'm so mad that post was misinformation because there is actually an EXTREMELY important conversation to have about the production schedules artists are forced into. There's no need for exaggeration, the conditions are bad.

I work for webtoon. My publication schedule is weekly. While publishing I'm required 10-15 pages a week. Fully colored.

This means I'm finishing a 150 page fully colored graphic novel every 10-15 weeks.

When my comic is not updating, I am not getting paid. Any time writing, editing, or off is out of my own pocket. I don't get healthcare. They do not provide any assistants. They expect me to promote myself; they chose to deprioritize me before I even launched and gave me an end date half a year in. I never had a chance.

And this is the industry standard! Every company has artists forced into crunch hours, overtime, and burnout. Artists are literally dying early due to it. So many of my friends can't afford to go to the doctor.

It's unsustainable and untenable, and it's also the expectation our audiences have.

If we want to have this conversation, there's plenty of conversation to be had with the realities of the situation. It's bad as is.

Me: I joke about writing the same McCoy centric story over and over again in different ways

Me: and like. I love doing it and imma keep doing it because it makes me happy.

Me: but also. I do sometimes wonder if it's like. A little Much.

Me: like maybe I should branch out or something

Me: [reads another fundamental and extremely insulting misread of McCoy's character by someone who is clearly making a Choice to cast McCoy as the villain, because they have to get him out of the way of spirk, because they're too???? idk immature??? to realize that even when you're in a relationship with one person, other ppl can and SHOULD still be important to you]

Me: lmao I hope I AM too much actually!!!! I hope it is 100% obnoxious how much I love that doctor!!!!! Time to write more versions of the same story of McCoy being forced to realize that he is loved and cared for!!!!!!

Me: I KNOW MY NICHE AND IMMA DIE IN THAT NICHE, THANKS

Where did Feyre's human heart go ?

She make fun of Lucien because he have human friends.

She is disgust by Jurian ( because he wanted to helped his people aka humans. Which is also what Feyre was )

She just accept that Rhysand told that neither side ( Humans and Fearies ) is not innocent. Which makes absolutly no sense.

I think every artist needs to experience the sheer rage of learning how wrong you were about something and exactly where you went wrong. As weird as it sounds, it's grounding and can be really awe-inspiring after you're done being pissed off. It reminds me that there is so much in this world I don't know, that I need to turn every stone, or I will feel my brain peeling itself with longing

[ssamorganhotchner]

it’s so fucking hot in here i could die & i can’t fucking sleep

[pajama-han]

I'm fine. (TOTK minor spoilers under the cut)

Did Lin say anything about Palestine? I couldn't find it and you know about everything he does

either he didn't (which is just as disappointing) or i missed it (because i definitely don't know everything). i think the first one. which makes me sad.

but it's not only about palestine when it comes to taylor, it's also about swifties sending death threats to joe alwyn only knowing one side of the story & basically treating him like a trash (one of the reasons i don't want to be part of this fandom, it's just embarrassing at this point), it's about her new relationship that feels so fucking fake (are you trying to tell me that this was a real conversation? sorry but i don't buy it), it's about so many things... that i don't even want to discuss at the moment. she's not the person she used to be & i'm sick of all of this.

[widevibratobitch]

nothing makes me hate myself more than sleeping in. yes the night before i slept for like an hour tops so i rather passed out more than 'fell asleep' last night but that is no excuse for my brain to tune out like twenty fucking alarms in a row. FUCKS SAKE.
