I think one of the weirdest thing to me about Helluva Boss is how they keep proving that Striker is right but at the same time they refuse to let Striker himself be right.
Someone on twitter pointed out that in Oops Striker talks about it being an embarrassment to imp kind that Fizz is a purse-dog to his over-bloated master, and then, while Striker might’ve been referring to Ozzie (although the use of over-bloated makes me wonder if he truly meant Mammon), the entirety of the next episode is all about Fizz saying fuck you to Mammon (his master) and quitting his job because he doesn’t wanna be exploited or abused anymore.
And this just reminded me how in the first season they had Striker say to Blitz “Starting with the one that treats you like a plaything.” about Stolas’ treatment towards him in Harvest Moon and then in Truth Seekers (the next episode) they literally had Stolas say “Who dare threaten my impish little plaything.”
I don’t know if this parallel is on purpose but that’s twice now where in back to back episodes in each season Striker has a made a point about the hierarchy in his episode and then the following episode goes out of its way to prove his point.
I just think it’s odd how they prove that he is right in other character’s storylines but in Striker’s own storyline he’s like not allowed to have a win despite everything around him saying he should.
#idk i just have a lot of thoughts about the way striker’s story is handled#ik it probably doesn’t matter bc he’s a villain in the narrative#but I think he’s so interesting okay😭#i just feel like striker being a villain shouldn’t negate that he IS right#but also bc he is a villain people don’t pay attention to his dialogue and won’t notice these things#like I swear no one listened to anything he said in western energy despite him saying sm about his struggles#drives me up the walllllll#why couldn’t i be obsessed with a main character#noo the cowboy had to catch my attention#we strugging out here striker nation LMAO#helluva boss#helluva boss striker#striker helluva boss#helluva boss fizzarolli#helluva boss blitz#helluva boss blitzo#helluva boss stolas

(cw I’m being very blunt)
Maglor’s argument against the oath, popular in fandom, is insanely controversial in context.
we do not have a modern equivalent of the cultural importance of oaths. Historically, your honour was as prized as your virtue. Say ‘oathbreaker’, say ‘prostitute’. It has a similar shame.
This is foreign to us. Saying ‘break your oath’ is like saying ‘fuck your brother’. It is the same level of taboo.
Understanding the context is so vital in understanding the oath and its nature, and personal compulsion for fulfilment. Don’t purport to analyse the oath of Feanor in junction with morality without discussing the morals of the time.
#This this drives me insane#I know I’ve talked about it before but#People commenting on the oath as if there’s no incentive to fulfill it? Like man? Do you understand how oaths work?#That’s literally the point of an oath the point is you shouldn’t break it#You don’t WANT to break it#You break the oath you break yourself okay#you are worthless etc etc#Argh#silmarillion#silm#oath of feanor#sons of feanor#tolkien meta#silm meta

if you think chappell roan is a “diva” for wanting personal space and respect in public, you’re absolutely crazy.
#challenge for people who think this: go outside. touch the grass. look at the sky. feel the breeze. LOG OFF‼️#HER FAMILY HAS BEEN DOXXED AND SHE IS BEING FOLLOWED AROUND!!!! THIS IS NOT NORMAL! SHES HUMAN!#I see people saying that ‘she wants the $ but not the fans’#actually no! she wants to create the art that she wants AND be able to walk outside without getting harassed!#and people saying she signed up for this. you are insane.#someone said she should’ve done it under a ‘person’ if she didn’t wanna be recognized#but she did tho? like Chappell roan is her project? she’s said this before? that what she does is essentially drag?#part of her art is her stage persona. why shouldn’t she be able to share that AND be viewed as a human#she doesn’t owe us anything! she drives us her incredible art and we should appreciate that!!#I just don’t understand#leave her alone!#chappell roan#Midwest princess

"I love it when I can chill and have nothing to do" I say, while I do actually have assignments to do
#have to write an analysis#and a comment#lowkey too lazy tho#urgh I just want freetime#school has been killing me#idk#like I shouldn’t be this demotivated#since its my last school year#and my finals aren't that far away#but I don't know what to do with myself#after school#I can't do just nothing#lots of pressure from my mom#expectations from other people#while I'm just clueless#without any dreams#goals#hopes#wishes#driving force#for my future#so I think the reason I've become so “lazy”/demotivated to do anything is#bc I hope that it'll slow things down#that I have more time#and also less#responsibility? pressure?#while in fact nothing is slowing down#lmao#the voices are speaking

Some f1 fans cannot handle being reminded that this is a competitive sport, not daycare. Sometimes people have to do things that will hurt a driver’s feelings, seem unfair, or piss off other competitors when there’s points and millions of dollars on the line. You can still be disappointed and upset without acting like the decision made on objectively sound sporting reasons requires a trip to the hague. If you cannot handle that this sport is not actually hair braiding and gentle parenting when push comes to shove, you might enjoy another hobby better.
#some of these takes just have me rolling my eyes#i may dislike mclaren for some general things that went down with daniel#but daniel did not perform and they were 100% right to drop him and there is no world in which they were wrong in making that choice#sucks that nyck didnt get a full season but he ran his mouth about not wanting to be treated like a rookie and got rightfully dropped#when drivers do things that seem scummy but are legal … you can be like ‘ugh i hate that’ without saying they deserve a penalty for it#it’s very sad for logan that he can’t drive because of alex’s mistakes#but also. he’s not out for this weekend just because of alex’s mistakes#he’s not driving because he put out a season and two races worth of performances#showing why they shouldn’t trust him more than the man who crashed. and that is on logan#williams is 100% right for putting alex in there. it sucks for logan for SURE and i feel bad for him#but they’re right#no one says you cant be UPSET with the decision but you cannot pretend its wrong#*

Sat at the computer for 35 minutes fighting with Linux Mint to mount a internal hard drive. It showed up when listing drives, but FSTAB didn’t see it
Read through three different forum threads, fighting with terminal commands that did nothing, everything from “sudo mount” to “sudo nemo /etc/fstab” and manually adding in my drive. Eventually I saw someone’s comment “Man I hate the DISKS utility”. Went to search my programs, found the DISKS utility, and I got my drive mounted in 3 seconds
Man, I hate linux users. Just say right from the start “Try this way first”. All I had to do was open the Disks utility and set the drive to auto mount. I didn’t even need to restart the computer it just worked
#neververy4#linux#vent#The most annoying part about fighting with linux is being expected to know every command right out the box#granted I know so many Windows commands. Maybe if I used Linux in highschool and not Windows I’d like this#instead it’s a fight just to use the damn thing. I shouldn’t need to spend 30 minutes enabling a drive.

ship discourse my beloathed
#god why can’t people like. leave other people alone#“i can’t believe you’re a proshipper you have such young impressionable fans!!1!1!1” girl. shut up#such “young impressionable fans” probably shouldn’t be on the tumblr/twitter/whatever anyway.#also like. if a creator has sufficient warnings it shouldn’t???? matter????#just block the tag and move on lmao you antis are fucking crybabies#don’t doxx or harass people over FICTIONAL SHIPS#one of the things that drives me fucking crazy in the utmv fandom is ship discourse. like good fucking lord#it’s okay to be disappointed in people for being proshippers. i was disappointed when i found out zu was.#do i care? no! i still love her other content. i just blocked the dreammare tag and moved on#it’s not like she posts about it everyday anyway. grow up utmv community.#nash talks#probably delete later#nashdoesstuff#this is exactly why i’m so tired of this fandom’s bs and have considered leaving as many times as i have#you guys don’t know how to fucking behave.#will i leave? probably not considering utmv is my special interest#but my point still stands. grow the fuck up.#fandom discourse#ship discourse#i think the only proshipper i’ve ever blocked was flowey because he’s weird in other ways. it wasn’t even because of proshipping :/

@pyrotechnicarus was right, that tv can fucking glow.
#i saw the tv glow#isttvg#the set design dude#the world is just decaying around Owen as they’re dying from the inside out#everything starts losing color and we stop seeing Owen out in the bright sunlight#the only shot that’s there that’s nice and bright and wonderful is the one of maddys burial spot#the split second pause after the drive thru worker calls Owen sir#like it was just physically painful to hear and they needed a second#the fact they just start apologizing for having a breakdown but there’s still time and they shouldn’t be doing that#they phrase it as needing to become a man but really all they’re doing is killing themself slowly over time#i 100% read Maddy and Owen/Isabel and Tara as t4t love where one of them was ready to come out and move on with their life while the other#is too scared to ever change and is stuck in an endless loop of being something they’re not#Owen has the personality of wet grass but that’s the entire point#being too scared to ever be anything more than what is expected and just rotting over years and year and just hating yourself all the while#I love the part where Owen can’t verbalize why exactly their romantic attraction feels wrong#it’s wrong because they’re trans and can’t incision a life as Owen but can’t say out loud that it’s being perceived as a male in#a relationship that is the problem#the jab the dad makes about pink opaque being a girl’s show and how the dad is the one to drag Owen away from freedom in the tv#he’s holding Owen back but they’re so fucking scared to live as Isabel and are just stuck in a cycle of self loathing#but there’s still time#the reason Maddy/Tara doesn’t come back is because there is still time#but Owen has to be the one to commit to being Isabel and no one else is going to drag them into the dirt#it’s their choice alone and their inaction is a choice all on its own#no matter how much time passes as long as Owen is alive then there is still time to change but their inaction is slowly killing them#the fact they find the truth in their own chest dude that’s such a trans thing#where the fuck is my insurance card I’m calling my doctor to start t when the offices open#THERES STILL TIME MAN#THERES STILL TIME

I had a first driving lesson and it was.. bad.
#oh I supposed it would be bad because my motor coordination s bad#and I am bad at multitasking#but eh unfortunately I think I chose an instructor who isn’t for me :/#like I said that I have never drove a car and he got nervous that I dint know how to change brakes :/#use* brake#and I don’t know why he wanted me to drive in roads first?#like shouldn’t I try to ride in a training yard?#eh I would tell all of these and if nothing changes I will resign :/#it’s not for my nerves#and it would be waste of money too ;/#geez why I can’t have something simple and nice for once#instead I have to have everything so hatd#I sometimes think that I should spend this holidays on beach not on this stupid training :/

just got to that part in kiwami where majima gets shot and falls into the fucking ocean and kiryu just. goes. eh he’ll be fine. and leaves him to fucking bleed out and/or drown. and oh man. that sure was Bad and Out Of Character. like that was so out of character it was actually jarring
#like it doesn’t even matter if it’s majima or if it was someone else tbh kiryu just realistically wouldn’t do that to Anyone helping him#fight/that he’s allied with/etc#LET ALONE majima#especially considering this is after majima’s helped him regain all his strength and abilities to be able to survive that fight in the first#place. like shit man I would’ve wanted to drive a truck into a building and fight kiryu too ngl I felt bad fighting him cause he was kinda#in the right#kiryu. just. apologize to him. good lord#yeah anyway that just shouldn’t have happened that was insanely out of characrer#I know it was in order to take majima out of commission for a bit for plot reasons but that doesn’t excuse it cause like. they still#absolutely could’ve written a better way of doing that. hell they could’ve had kiryu pull him out and some of majima’s guys pull up and take#him away and that would’ve worked and would’ve been infinitely better#that was just… lazy#rambling#majima#yakuza kiwami#yakuza kiwami spoilers#goro majima#kazuma kiryu#kiryu#kazumaji

another day another medical malpractice…the allie experience!
#this is overdramatic but miss no hands me is having a rough time#and so i was brave and called my doctor to be like Hey It’s Getting Worse…Should Something Be Done Sooner Than Next Week’s MRI?#and she was like. huh. it shouldn’t hurt. maybe you have some kind of disorder. definitely inflammation is your issue#(inflammation is not my issue. reinjury seems to be my issue but i don’t think she is hearing me when i say that)#anyway bloodwork all normal but they BLEW OUT MY FUCKING VEINNNNNN#it feels better today but eva (doesn’t drive) had to drive me home from the lab lol#anyway i also finally got and read my mri analysis from last spring and got a MUCH better idea of my initial injury. doc was SO vague#she’s a reassurer not a problem solver ig. i’ve liked her except uhhhh the part where Things Keep Getting Worse so maybe she is.#not a good doctor lol#at least i’ve been able to work through all sorts of lingering uterus trauma or whatever i guess. silver linings etc#so we deal we deal#wrist saga tag
