a looooooooooot of American leftist perspective on what is good or possible with basic policy about land use, recycling, public transit etc is so fucked up purely because we are completely unaware that much of Europe has been doing stuff we consider pie in the sky laughable dreamerism (like effectively and safely going home from shift work or from a nightclub at 3am on the subway, or recycling anything instead of strip mining a mountain every time we need to bottle beer, or turning vacant office buildings into apartments, etc) for decades or centuries.
you do not find out about it unless you're fortunate enough to visit and stay long enough to actually interact with the infrastructure, not just as a tourist, because likewise the Europeans just assume we can take buses everywhere or get 25¢ for a beer bottle and simply choose to live in suffering and profligacy out of simple American degenerate preference for driving cars and smashing bottles until an American tells them exactly how bad everything is here, which they can hardly believe
#im exaggerating but only slightly#most of Europe is also disgusting colonial settler empire too im not saying they're good#fuck Germany in particular#BUT you can absolutely take the fucking subway home from the club#“buhh duhh we cant do that here because of american exceptionalism”#YES WE CAN! yes we can#the people handling the money and policy simply choose not to#and why is that?#probably because we arent publicly executing enough of them if i had to guess#keep voting democrat everyone this is a new strain of blue guy its different bro I promise

i do find it sooo funny seeing posts trying to defend dick against the 'sweet angel baby teacher's pet wouldn't harm a fly defends bruce always' characterisation but in doing so they swing way too hard the opposite way so it just ends up sounding like "he's an ASSHOLE he's been out for BLOOD since he was a CHILD he was BORN EVIL"
#im exaggerating obviously. but only slightly.#“dick was the angry robin” laser eyes laser eyes laser eyes#dick grayson#nightwing

geralt "i will NEVER deadname my best friend" of rivia
"he will ALWAYS be dandelion to ME"
#also 'including milva in male costume' goes SOOO HARDDD#everyone say thank you regis for citing a dozen precedents to pull that off. the effect of knowing your herstory <3#c: geralt#s: i want to be by your side#geralt is like the reverse situation of a transphobe who 'has known you for 20 years so he can't call you something else now'#it's that he has known dandelion for so long that he can't call him anything else but his STAGE / CHOSEN NAME :')#the 'viscount dandelion' is so funny to me#i can accept that he's a viscount but I DRAW THE LINE at calling him by his birth name#milva: 'you can accept that he's a viscount??'#also it's lost in english but that his stage name and birth name begin with the same letter & thus sound. jaskier... julian...#not the 'chosen name starts with the same letter as the birth name' stereotype. and swag#the witcher books#book: lady of the lake#excerpt#one thousand million years ago in posada:#dandelion: 'don't you want to know my name' | geralt: 'but i already know your name. it's dandelion'#dandelion: 'but it's not my real name. don't you want to know my real and famous name' | geralt: 'not particularly'#geralt has the same relationship to dandelion's birth name and viscount status as dandelion has to kaer morhen 💀#geralt and dandelion are like i don't care who you were back then i cannot comprehend your sad backstory all i care is about who you are no#i think this kind of friendship helped them both slightly detach from their exaggerated levels of perceived self-importance#geralt from his 'woe is me i will never be seen as a normal man' and dandelion from 'im the most interesting man in this tavern'#only SLIGHTLY detach. when they're around each other they temper expectations. but when they're apart it grows back

Todd going home for the weekend (Saturday morning to Sunday evening)
Todd, getting up from the breakfast table with the poets Saturday morning: oh I have to go
Neil, staring wistfully: oh mine own Todd, I bid thee the sweetest of goodbyes, my heart may be full of sorrows but I shall speak my farewells with honest wellness and inpatient joyfulness for I shall be waiting to see thee again on the morrow, mine own sweetest Todd, until then I shall hold you in mine heart for I cannot hold you in mine dear arms
Todd, walking out: uh ye-yeAH uh, I’ll see ya tomorrow *awkwardest wave you’ve ever seen* b- *runs into table because he was looking at poets* uh bye Neil
Neil, after Todd leaves: did you see that guys, isn’t he sooooo romantic, he just says the most perfect things to me
The poets: *wondering if Neil is delusional or just that lovesick*
#Todd walking out: god im such an idiot like can’t I just say anything right#Neil: isn’t he the most perfect guy ever#dead poets society#dps#dps fandom#dead poets fandom#todd anderson#neil perry#they are so Anne and Diana coded in this and perhaps that’s just my favorite type of pairing#well Neil is Anne coded but Todd isn’t really Diana coded but he is in some ways in the movie I suppose#maybe I’m just not normal about those two and I’ve secretly projecting them onto every other ship so I don’t have to address how utterly#bewitched I was by Anne and Diana from Anne of green gables (Anne and Diana shoulda been end game like have yall read the first novel???)#no one can convince me they weren’t written to be the superior ship and you can fight me on that)#if anyone sends me an ask about those two I will answer with why I think they were written to be romance-coded in the first novel so yall#don’t think I’m dillusional or making up the queer overtones of the novel#but back to dps#only slightly ooc like Neil is definitely dramatic enough to say something like that and Todd is that awkward but both are slightly#exaggerated charactitures of their selves#cause why not

this has 2 saves already even though i haven't talked about it at all so ig there's an audience to throw it out to somewhere . fuck it we ball
WOE. INCOMPREHENSIBLE SLEEP TOKEN INFESTED GABV1EL PLAYLIST BE UPON YE.
#and today on cookie's ramblings#ultrakill#gabriel ultrakill#v1 ultrakill#gabv1el#seeing the saves made me scramble to add a few extra sleep token songs in before i posted this so that was fun#was not planning on posting this tbh#this originally had a local file in it which shows how unprepared i was for this to get clocked LSJDLSKGN#heed the word 'brainrot' in the playlist name. it is not exaggerating#some of this is like . weirdly personal? idk im probably just tripping but it feels like itd only make sense to me#having v1 himself scuttling around in your brain does not help#yea this is also partially a fictive playlist OOPSIES#system bullshit tag#My thoughts about these two are incomprehensible to even myself so#in order to keep these tags slightly shorter than they could be i will cease the ramblings now

im so much nicer and kinder when i speak in english compared to spanish. i speak english on here because if i made tumblr posts in spanish i would wake up hating and be posting vagueposts over my lunch and discourse starters over my dinner and then i would go to bed hating. really i do this to contain my hating power. no other reason
#lying. i speak english because most of my followers only speak english. and im exaggerating about being a hater.#but i am slightly more of a hater. not sure why

okay but like genuinely. like for a moment im gonna be completely genuine here. rid15 is legitimately so fucking amazing.
its hilarious, it canNOT take itself seriously 90% of the time, just like. EVERYTHING that is going on all at the same time. like everything is so. its. i cant even explain it. its batshit insane, its beautiful, it gets weirdly serious in a good way at points you dont expect, its just fucking BIZARRE sometimes and like. i love it so fucking much.
like, the rivalry-turned-friendship between denny and fixit??? that wolf guy and his gang of furries/scalies???? that fuckin. porcupine guy who drugs people with his quills and its a random drug each time?????? the time grimlock befriends a monk guy who makes bread and teaches him the art of patience or whatever the fuck through breadmaking???????? like what the fuck is this show on. what is happening. its perfect.
EDIT: the monk guy taught grimlock patience through pretzel making
#talk tag#transformers tag#like legit i think every transformers fan should watch rid15 because it is literally the funniest shit ever to me. its beautiful#local man forced to become father of nine other people who cannot even remotely be slightly normal for even one second or they will die#local man ALSO cannot be normal but he is desperately trying to be#important to mention that out of the said nine other people only one is an actual child#OH and not to mention its tied into transformers prime and rescue bots which makes it literally 100 times funnier#there could NOT have been a better sequel series honestly#bumblebee. buddy. how did you GET here#it literally has everything. furries; comedy; bumblebee age regressing on drugs; blurr from rescue bots comes by for a visit; found family#like i know some of you might say im bluffing or exaggerating but im literally not. this show is insane and i love it

millie’s natural state is covered in blood (<- may or may not be her own) and shaking like a feral dog. because she’s normal.
#the virgin ‘i wish we had normal peaceful lives that we could live instead even if realistically we can never have that’ sam & dean vs the#chad ‘i only know how to communicate with others when im allowed violence as an option’ millie#not that she’s going to USE it. she just likes having stabbing as an acceptable way to end a conversation. she’s normal.#sam & dean are badly socialized because theyre codependent freaks. millie is badly socialized because john didn’t put her in middle school#and instead let her eat dirt and kill things. im exaggerating. but only slightly.#she also probably would have been badly socialized if she *had* been schooled but she was not.#she has zero friends her age. absolutely no hobbies that don’t relate back to being a hunter. and no ability to plan for the future.#and she’s sooo normal for all of that and NOT maladjusted.#spn oc
