I have mixed feelings about Zerxus in season 3 of TLOVM, but I’ve gotta say hearing him give a Totally Unbiased Account of EXU: Calamity with Definitely No Omissions Whatsoever was kind of funny. Like “ooh I thought I could count on my friends….they condemned our civilisation….” Ok Zerxus. Buddy. Last time I checked, Nydas was actually the only one trying to stop Laerryn from blighting the tree. You sat there like a chump and did not help whatsoever. And uh. “They condemned our civilisation with their hubris” ummm pal I think you’re missing an important detail there. Like yes the point of EXU: Calamity is that everyone played a role in the disaster, everyone was responsible in some ways for that ship crashing into the iceberg, but uh. Zerxus I think some people were maybe a little more responsible than others. Like, for example, the certain someone who pulled the Lord of the Hells into Exandria. I think that individual’s hubris is maaaaaybe a little bit more important than some of the other hubris on the table here.
And like, this isn’t me bashing the writing, I think it is in-character for TLOVM!Zerxus to say this, since he’s been a jaded miserable devil for a thousand years. But omg when he had the CHEEK to be like “in the chaos I found myself face-to-face with the Lord of Torment himself” like EXCUSE ME??? Buddy you just happened to “find yourself” face-to-face with Asmodeus huh??? Just coincidentally, on accident??? You were just taking a stroll around Avalir and he ran into you without warning??
Zerxus. Please. Be serious for a moment. Would you like to explain to Pike the exact circumstances of HOW you found yourself face-to-face with Asmodeus, hmmmmm? A certain “pulling Asmodeus through the tree and unleashing him upon the world” situation?
Like, I know it was meant to be a serious moment with lots of Calamity-related hype but like, it was really giving “Girl what were YOU doing at the devil’s sacrament” energy. In the most literal way possible
#i just know nydas is in the afterlife listening to this and is absolutely PISSED#Like in his dying moments Nydas gave Zerxus an out to avoid becoming a devil and Zerxus willingly decided to become one anyway#and then spends his time bitching about his friends to random strangers in the hells. the Disrespect is Off The Charts#i'm sure people have already spoken about this but i just thought it was so funny#and also this isn't me hating on Zerxus I think his character is super interesting and engaging and I love how Luis played him#but like Zerxus please. You need to learn about the phrase “pot calling the kettle black”#esp bc he's seemingly like “welp time to worship The Whispered One” bro did you learn NOTHING#non witcher#critical role#the legend of vox machina#tlovm#lovm#lovm season 3#zerxus ilerez#exu calamity

(I screwed up the text placement on the last page, read from professor membrane top left, down to zim bottom left, then dib top right)
Poor Dib lol
Btw i headcanon that zim has an internship at membrane labs when they're in high school. Zim talks to Membrane about Dib and them hanging out (he thinks the boys are dating and just not telling him yet) and the professor is hoping zim's "real science" attitude rubs off on Dib lmao
#invader zim#iz zim#iz dib#zadr#professor membrane#my art#zadp#zadf#I like zim's holograph watch lmao I needed him to be checking the time but I felt like if he wore a normal watch it'd seem like a joke#which yeah it'd be funny#but the holo space watch is cool!#....wait hologram or holograph#as far as prof knows the boys were going to a double feature drive in movie#but they ditched that to go monster hunting in the woods + haunted house they ended up finding#so as far as prof knows they went to a movie and have been somewhere in dib's car this whole time 😳#dib is DYING INSIDE that his father accused him (and zim accidentally confirmed) that they did THAT#English isn't zim's first language is Dib's go to excuse bc while zim is FLUENT he doesn't understand some turns of phrase and such

oh the tragedy of a podcast character with a daughter..............
#m#audio drama#malevolent#fathom/derelict#wolf 359#ethics town#probably more that im forgetting/haven't heard yet#many such cases...#i was gonna say podcast girldad bc the phrasing is funny. but then i would be excluding my girl eva graff of fathom/derelict fame#and i could not do that to her#anyway. now that im actually listing them there is a really interesting pattern#of “something terrible happened to my daughter and i feel/am (at least partially) responsible for it.”#“i can never take it back but by god ill regret it for the rest of my miserable life”#doesn't apply exactly to all of these .but very interesting.#esp bc sm of it is father/daughter theres probably some gender dynamics stuff at play that i could think abt if i was smarter#and also not at 1am#ok actually gojng to bed now. for like the third time.ijust had to get that out#this is all part of my dastardly and clever plot to get more people into derelict + ethics town btw.let me know if its working

「30歳の童貞に片想いすると魔法使いになれるらしい」 (from cherry magic volume 11 special edition) — english translation
#cherry magic#my translation#finally. after months i got to read this at last !!!!!!! i can be at peace now#also gonna do a little t/n in the tags bc i wanna clarify one little bit#the term '苦手' comes up a bunch here and it can mean either 'not being good at smth' or 'disliking/hating smth'#and from my understanding when used for people it can mean either 'not knowing how to get along with someone' or 'disliking/hating someone'#so on page 1 kurosawa uses 苦手 to say that the other guy doesnt like him#and on page 4 adachi uses 苦手 too which kurosawa misinterprets bc he doesnt have all the context#bc adachi means that he doesnt really know how to interact with guys like kurosawa but kurosawa hears it as 'i dont like his type of ppl'#(which gets cleared up later anyway thank god . tho it did give us a funnie panel)#i couldnt find any word in english that worked with the same sort of double meaning as 苦手 so i tried phrasing it in a way-#-that would have that same sort of 'this can be easily misinterpreted' vibe . dunno if it worked but i tried kjfkds

happy bisexual day to those who celebrate
#dragalia lost#dragalia#orion#orion dragalia#I don't usually cross reference JP translations for Dragalia stuff but I was curious if some of the Really Gay Lines in English were#the same in the original text. Turns out some of them weren't#which just makes the localization funnier#Like. Grain of salt because I don't speak Japanese and rely on machine translations and friends who speak the language#But the really sus “receiving end” line was originally just. “Haha it'd be nice to be the one getting escorted for once :)”#I'm sure it's not an entirely indulgent translation but. Phrasing!!!#then there's the infamous(?) “I seek to have a relationship with everyone here!” where in JP it's clearer that by “everyone”#Orion means “every woman” and not literally “everyone”#bc JP Elly says “In your case won't just any woman do?” while in EN she just calls him shameless LOL#there's a few more#like the scene where Orion says “You're the first man I've ever wanted to protect” and Euden says “damn bro I thought you weren't gay?”#and he responds calmly like “You really are slow when it comes to these matters! I'm just saying you're more charming than you know.”#it's a letdown but it's kinda coy#meanwhile since JP has some extra animations#namely Orion jumping in shock and making a cringing face before responding#the No Homo vibe is off the charts 😭😭😭#and then theres that xmas seasonal line that's about picking up women ...when voices are set to JP.#The EN line is about being broke. For some reason.#But even with all that it's not like there's no gay subtext in JP Orion's dialogue. It's just deeply funny how the EN localizers went#Yup. This one. Bisexual. We gotta make it more obvious.

#''for those who won't be joining us'' WON'T?????? Will Not. huh hm. strange phrasing#how about. for those who can't afford to join us. god i'm rollin my eyes#WHY DOES THIS FEEL SO STANKY. so wait#does this decision have DIRECT CORRELATION to him wanting to do more of his food shows again???#the ones where he takes his christian ass to upscale dining places in japan and italy and shit and eats the most expensive thing he can fin#bc that is SO not what ppl subbed to watcher for bro. this was NOT worth-it hype#this was ghoul boys hype#and i don't gaf about production value eitherrrRRRR#sergle answers#i know i'm not alone in liking the stuff they made that was lower production value#that's not where the Value actually lies. it isn't valuable bc it's more Produced#it's valuable bc it's funny and people like ryan and shane's personalities and the show formats

oh my fucking god i feel. SO stupid rn at How i didnt make the (super sane very normal just absolutely. Yes. Surely) connection earlier but uhh
so anyway im now like 89% certain that whatever the "traces" of the narwhal that remain on ajax and facilitate their (ever-growing) innate connection are like. an actually fundamental aspect of it (them?) more or less.
why? because if you consider its pov just for a moment. the narwhal was literally about to depart teyvat for good. it had nearly finished consuming the primordial sea and preparing to breach surface to finish the job by eating the french for the leftovers their human bodies were made from. its an interstellar voyager it does not linger on planets it devours. it goes glug glug and it leaves.
and like if it wasnt for traveler intervening its confirmed through narzissenkreuz and renes world formula that teyvat wouldve just been destroyed. no one could have stopped the narwhal not neuvillette not focalors not anyone.
so what was the one other thing it did right before going for that french brunch? calling for ajax. getting them reunited in the primordial sea. like all the possible implications aside bc theres many different ways to speculate on the exact reasons why and the nature of that link. the point remains.
it wasnt leaving teyvat without finding him.
like the narwhal is about to fucking Dip from this cringe planet and whatever part of it that ajax carries within himself his narwhal Absolutely wanted to be reunited with. what the fuck am i supposed to read from that. hoyo???????!??! answers?!?!?!
and its not only the calling from the narwhal side itself either bc this is ALL coinciding with the growth of a 'restless power' within ajax and his vision malfunctioning (the things celestia is literally confirmed to harvest energy thru to repair its damaged authority) and his connection with the narwhal reaching an actual conscious level (arguably subconscious n emotional too bc i find it Curious his mood is poor right as the narwhal is repeatedly described as positively malding to the point its boss fight mechanic is literally a rage meter). ajax' power is growing. his destiny is starting to shift and something is drawing him to fontaine... right as the narwhal is getting close to finished with the primordial sea. funny how it overlaps eh. how it aligns 🤨🤨 why are they orbiting each other like this (they should kiss)
(& not to even Mention how ajax just Happened to get that absolutely exponential and borderline unbelievable feat of power spike in extending his foul legacy endurance as massively as he did. while. within the primordial sea. with his narwhal. who had at that point all but incorporated the power of that sea into itself. i s2g if childe was getting passive home turf co-op bonus exp with a 4x multiplier automatically the whole 40+ days 💀💀)
#man the way its lovely reunion but tjen ajax fucking ATTACKS IT ON SIGHT you couldve gotten married!!!!11!1 fucking unbearable i am in agony#anyway contrary to popular belief we still have no fucking clue whether ajax' link to the narwhal was innate#skirk saying the traces remain on him after meeting it isnt saying tht much. the parts he shares w it couldve well been innate but dormant#instead. also just the fact that he woke it up already shady#then like. monoceros caeli being his from the beginning is completely plausible despite ppl acting like its been confirmed his const change#and like them being halves of the same entity on some lvl would make the narwhal being so weak without him n until ajax found it again#make very much. sense. anyway ajax toxicity jokes aside if the narwhal was just trying to eat him point blank without even a hello#i do get why hed react aggressively. but also bros been telling everyone n their mom hes fighting his narwhal the seconf he finds it again😔#so i feel somewhat confident in assuming he started that 40+ days brawl#anyway if ajax Isnt the celestial narwhal on some level or possibly becoming it as their link grows.#riddle me this atheists. why is his 3rd phase boss theme. the song about His individual murderous rage at us#bc he thought he was outplayed by us. His personal wrath#whys the song for that called the wrath of the celestial narwhal. of the star swallowing whale. Hmmmge. his individual rage.#why does tusk of monoceros caeli speak of him embracing the narwhals innate qualities as embracing mere parts of Himself#funny how tjat goes!! (the OST n boss drop is not 100% serious theory but it does drive me insane. bc why would they phrase it like that)#anyway either theyre 2 halves same original entity or theyre soulmates idgaf . they should fold teyvat in half and eat it for brunch#aaand im going to be consumed by this realization for the next month wish me luck#WHY DID IT NEED HIM THERE SO BADLY???? HUH??????#i mean relatable dont we all. but its sooooooooo inch resting. Curious indeed#rambles#genshin#childe#childeposting#narwhalposting

#phrased as vaguely as possible for the kind gentle souls who follow me who have not had to Endure Greywaren#i didn't include the henry/declan offscreen enemies to lovers thing mostly bc i find it too funny to be truly bad#like there are other things on this list that i am genuinely upset by#the henry declan thing was just out of pocket

i Forgot tjat season one ended with morty making the decision to stay with rick and keep going on adventures together despite at the time sincerely just thinking he’s a shallow heartless jerk and nothing else and acknowledging that all he does is bother and inconvenience him. and in that moment it couldve been so easy to leave him too he did Nothing to stop it morty was the one who had to make the decision so he could keep being with rick. they are literally beyond reasoning
#just. the moment where morty turns to look at rick just sleeping on the couch doing his little weird snore that he does#and suddenly looking super determined and angry ITS SO. WHY DO YOU LIKE HIM?????????? ;&;$;!$4&;!;383&;@;&:&;@;@;0;:&$3&:90:8290209928888#birdperson teaching morty the whatever lets you sleep at night phrase after morty says he’s sick of rick is SO funny but also just ough#also unrelated and stupid. theres so many times where ill just pause to stare at r&m bc they did something funny and i just start laughing#Or sometimes sobbing . because i just love them so much and they’re so inexplicably adorable to me rthey make me so emotional#odiespeak

I'm still thinking about that post about how female characters and especially wlw and f/f ships are treated in fandoms because I got a reply that I deleted on my post about how all the Nein were big shippers on deck for Beau and Yasha that boiled down to "haha Caleb making a tower so the useless lesbians would admit they liked each other!" and it's like. He made the tower to Beau's orders. She had already asked out Yasha, who in turn had of her own volition written Beau a phenomenal, beautiful letter instead of a poem as recommended by Jester. This is factually incorrect and obnoxiously dismissive of a genuinely great dynamic and attributes all agency to a man. When you say shit like this you sound like you are Chat GPT. No new thoughts no time actually spent analyzing a relationship dynamic just "ooh i see a woman in fiction what is the phrase most associated with this ok done onto the next task".
#whenever i post like 20 times before 8:15 am like this you need to understand it's bc my dumbass morning person body woke up at like 5:45 am#and i was like well i'm not getting back to sleep and then pounded 3 cups of coffee in an hour#just to give some context#also if i delete a reply or anon know that it's because i wanted to reply with something like this and (usually) restrained myself#which is very hard for me as an annoying person#like. it is very difficult to articulate this without sounding like some kind of well I don't see gender asshole and that isn't what i mean#but if you can only talk about wlw and women in general in overused memes that weren't funny the first time#you're clearly not like. spending time thinking about them. you can see this with repeated phrases#like the reason why repeated phrases in fanfic or in academic essays are looked down on is bc it shows you're not fucking thinking#you just grabbed what someone else said and said haha ok done i'm gonna go back to a busy day of eating markers

tlt is so funny because yeah these ten thousand year old people hate each other because they've committed mass genocide, created an empire with so many faults built in and they've fought god knows how many times over the eons they've known each other but also one of these bitches ate peanuts in a meeting once and somebody else has NEVER forgiven him for it
#just thinking bc#its so hilarious to me imagining how long mercymorn may have held onto that grievance for#was it one year? was it ten thousand nine hundred and eighty seven?#we'll never know#also ngl#i was just thinking ab the acid jail speech animatic from youtube thats why i made this#if you havent seen it please look it up#its so funny#anyway#waiting for someone to say they thought i was talking about the people that hate each other fighting god#and not just using the phrase “god knows”#bc ngl this is my own post#and i read it like that a couple times#the locked tomb#the locked tomb series#tlt#tamsyn muir#harrow the ninth#htn#mercymorn the first#mercymorn#john gaius#emperor john gaius#my post

when you light up your cigarette from another person's cig it's called the same thing as fucking them in finnish. and. i was drinking with a couple of friends last weekend and now that i think about it there is something funny about standing outside in the cold and having someone ask me to fuck them (= light their cig with mine) in front of their partner bc it's funny (said partner has also done the same to me). and we were all joking and being silly but both me and the partner are the kind of people that are fun to tease and make fun of bc 1. we dont mind 2. we find it funny usually 3. we unfortunately make it v easy, so. anyways i offer the end of my 2nd cig to the person whose cig i lighted earlier bc i wasnt feeling it and they had just declined a full cigarette from their partner bc that was too much at that moment so the partner was jokingly like "whyd you take leevi's cig but not mine" the the convo took a weird turn and ended up in two people who are standing on both sides of me patting my head and leaning on me while calling me a good boy. obviously it doesnt sound as hot in finnish but if i didn't already have a praise kink that would have awakened something in me
#im sorry i NEEDED to get this thing happening off of my chest#bc one of the people involved was someone my bestie cant stand so if i had explained this to her instead of posting here she would have mad#too many remarks about that person and i dont want that#though we did have a grest phone call yap session about other stuff today <3#anyways i left out some stuff from here i think this happened across 2 times of hanging outside on the same night#anyways it was funny#i have to say this was all doing jokingly in a nonserious manner but also most of us are ppl who flirt both accidentally and on purpose whe#drunk so. yknow. not flieting in a serious way though. its like. i dont want to call it smalltalk. u guys know what i mean#jokingly flirting with your friends#thats the phrase#ANYWAYS. ty for letting me get this off my chest#i can now sleep#leevi talks#edit also i dont really smoke it's only a social thing when drunk and about a pack a YEAR so it's fine and doesnt count

🗣🚨 YAOI ALERT 🚨🗣 [TEXT: Neelix took a seat next to Tuvok. He hoped the Vulcan would make some comment about his story, but a long silence ensued. Neelix found himself feeling unaccountably nervous, reading into Tuvok's silence a general disapproval - and yet, what could he expect? From the moment they first met, Tuvok had been aloof and judgmental. Nonetheless, his opinion mattered to Neelix, and so, inwardly chastising himself for doing so, he turned to the somber man. "So, Mr. Vulcan...what did you think of my story?" Another silence. Neelix felt himself begin to perspire. Why wasn't Tuvok answering him? Had he embarrassed himself that fully? He felt his heart beating in his chest. "I know I've done some awful things in my life," he stammered, "but I've tried to make up for them. I hope you won't hold what I've told you against me..." He trailed off lamely, his words sounding hollow. Tuvok turned slowly to look at him, his dark visage glistening in the heat of the setting sun. His eyes seemed to pierce Neelix's brain. He stared like that for a full moment before he spoke. "I found it an exceptional story. You have complexities, and courage, I would never have imagined." Neelix couldn't believe what he was hearing - Tuvok was actually complimenting him! He felt a little shiver of pleasure, but he couldn't for the life of him think of anything to say in return...] Source: Pathfinders by Jeri Taylor
#Tuvok/Neelix#WHAT WAS THE MOMENT FULL OF. HUH?#NEELIX'S CRUSH ON TUVOK IS SO REAL#Tuvok: Ugh Neelix.#Neelix: -tells a story about how he used to be a criminal and has had a lot of angst and heartbreak in his life-#Tuvok: Wo w......-twirling hair- I didn't know you like...had complexity. You're like such a tortured soul .....#Neelix: ('I didn't imagine you had complexities or courage' flying over his head) O mmmghmygod#I know Tuvok is just saying 'I didn't imagine you would have had a past like that given how cheerful you are now'#like those 'we all have the homies whose jovial nature can't quite hide their aura of sadness' posts#But I think his phrasing is funny - especially bc the author is using commas to mimic how he pauses in his speech#Also him just straight up not responding to Neelix is funny. DUDE. C'MOOOON. <3#CAN WE TALK ABOUT NEELIX'S HARDCORE CRUSH ON TUVOK??? THAT DESCRIPTION???#I'm so sorry there is NO straight and friendly explanation for 'his dark visage glistening...his eyes seemed to pierce [my] mind...'#SHIVERING IN PLEASURE???? NEELIX.#Novel Experiences#Neelix is so hopelessly in love with Tuvok he is sustaining himself on CRUMBS#If Tuvok gave Neelix a pencil Neelix would treasure it forever - HELP HIM.#they are so highschool despite being in their (nebulous middle age?) and (hundreds)#Tuvix#Tuvok#Neelix#I love how there's not really even a straight excuse reason for why Neelix likes Tuvok IN PARTICULAR so much#Almost as if-#voy

Which pjsk group swears the most?
hello, tumblr! so I was bored and was thinking about pjsk as I often do and this particular train of thought led to me scouring the lyrics of songs to see which group swore the most. here are my results:
Leo/need:
none. family friendly fr stan l/n <33 (unless you count like, kagerou daze bc I doubt being killed over and over is content for kids)
MORE MORE JUMP!:
also none, but some songs are not as family friendly 💀 (looking at you, vampire)
Vivid BAD SQUAD:
Odo “half-ass deserves a K.O.” (kinda iffy on this one bc it’s ado’s official translation but lots more eng translations dont swear)
Honorary mentions:
Traffic Jam (the wiki’s translation has “fuck compromises” but several more translations use other words and the eng subs on the official video don’t use it. an and akito have this part)
YY (the og says “shit” various times but it’s BARELY audible in the vbs cover. akito and an get the lines where it occurs if you wanted to know lol)
Wonderlands X Showtime:
Law Evading Rock “party people (can just) fuck off” “welcome to the fucking circus” (tsukasa sings both of these ones lolll. the second one is only in the full ver and not the game one though)
Ego Rock “1, 2, 3, fuck you” (Len gets this last line)
ONLINE GAME ADDICTS SPRECHCHOR “shitty scheme” or “scheme like a shit” (miku sings it)
Honorary mentions:
KING (there’s literally not a single swear word but they bleep out Rui singing “die” and it is hilarious to me)
Literary nonsense (the eng subs on eve’s mv say “XXX you and your lies.” rui has this part. it’s funny that he’s been technically censored twice in these two songs even though he doesn’t really say anything akdjkajd)
Nightcord at 25:00:
Usseewa “shut the f*** up” (this lyric is censored on the wiki like this for some reason despite the fact other songs aren’t censored lolll)
Venom “like a shitty video game” (mizuki has this line)
Honorable mention:
Bitter Choco Decoration (the og spells out “fuck” but it’s not at all audible in the game)
The way I narrowed these down was by first going through this page that had a list of songs with “inappropriate lyrics” and looking at the translations of those specific songs.
Then I went through the main song list on the wiki, only looking at cover songs since I assumed the commissioned songs wouldn’t have any words I was looking for. I went through all of the songs and their lyrics featured on the wiki, though I did speed through them a bit so i might’ve missed a few words
#sidenote: when I was on Childish War’s page my phone auto translated the Japanese#it was… something 😭#like it translated a phrase as ‘wiping his ass’#but i didn’t put in it the list bc that’s not what other people have translated it as#just thought it was funny#pjsk#project sekai#colorful stage#hatsune miku: colorful stage#leo/need#more more jump#vivid bad squad#wonderlands x showtime#nightcord at 25:00
