and thats why he keeps bobby pins in his desk

still thinking about that time in Injustice when Clark broke Bruce’s back to incapacitate (but not kill) him, and then tortured him for information by digging his foot and weight into the broken vertebrae.

like holy fuck, Clark. you deserved the ass whooping Alfred gave you right after that and more. also since when does torturing Bruce of all people for information work?

Kallias (but female)

i based kallias's clothing off of traditional sámi clothing. the sámi people are indigenous to the scandinavian countries like norway, sweden and finland.

Oliver: seriously you’re dating a knock off of me?!

Dinah: at least he doesn’t make me cry

Oliver: but I’m a billionaire

Dinah: and Y/N gives me home cooked meals and cuddles. A girl needs more than wealth, Queen

Y/N swings in…

Y/N: hey my canary, ready to go?

Dinah: baby I’m ready to sing for you…all night long

Tiny baby Nancy screaming at the population of Hawkins Middle to sign her petition to save the whales. Tiny baby Jonathan being the only person to sign other than Barb.

Me whenever I remember the hardcore environmental subject,taught by one of the toughest professors at uni,then remember how RT made Logan an "environmentalist"

How the fuck one (1) guy riding a bicycle is going to do anything against air pollution? And considering how intelligent and well-educated Logan has always been(yes,always. He had plenty of problems at school,but none of them were with grades,AFAIK),he'd have realized it was merely an empty virtue signaling gesture. One would think Logan could help clean beaches and other places in Neptune(small scale,but still something with real results - making the city prettier and healthier),petition for proper disposal and treatment of residues(in all scales,not only in the industrial one),be invested in basic sanitation and water supply(those affect the poor disproportionally - see,Noir-relevant),engage in environmental education(bonus points if he gets to mentor troubled youth and take them under his wing - just like the professor did with him). Young!Logan might have plenty of flaws,but he got shit done.

Logan Echolls became what he hated the most - a virtue-signalling shithead who half-asses good deeds to stroke his own ego. Also,a State-Sanctioned Mercenary. Not very different from the vapid Hollywood he hated so much. I know the Doylist explanation was simply incompetence from RT,but can anyone think of an Watsonian one?

I went looking for the Miitopia OST for New Lumos since the music there fits my tastes perfectly, and there's a playlist for them that was put together by Cinq Assoc. South Section 5 Director Don Quixote.

Don Quixote plays Miitopia, it seems. /lh

idk whats a better situation for lord huron existing as a band in their own universe:

being some mysterious cosmic force/spirits that both metaphorically and literally haunt the Whispering Pines studio playing all these songs as a way of capturing/reliving the stories that created them for a reason we will never fully understand

Literally just being some random cover band

[theyellowhue]

i think its important to point out that Phan (Prapai's younger sister) knew that his thot of a brother would only wake up early for a cutie.

it is also important to point out that the siblings talk about their preferences in bed with each other but that might just be the effect of having a thot brother raising you.

Me, thinking: it would be SO COOL if Dan Mora drew Injustice Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent

My brain: you’d throw yourself off a bridge what are you talking about

Me: you’re not wrong

Actually while I'm talking about sports, I can't believe that things like breakdancing and whatever flag football is are going to be in upcoming Olympics but not cheer

[tombware]

astarion's arc mentioning redemption doesn't make as much sense as it seemed it was going to in EA. like Ulma mentioning he might achieve redemption doesn't make much sense now since she's talking about victims he got while being almost literally puppeteered.

Originally it seemed pretty clear we were going to find out some heinous shit he did to the Gur as a magistrate out of his own free volition.

Another loss in the "the whiter you are, the more beautiful" war, but now... can't help but think of Arthur Conan Doyle painstakingly describing Holmes as pale at every opportunity. babe was really sitting in the dark describing his ideal man i guess

[faerune]

i just love nelia so much i love that she's a hero not because she's necessarily a good person (she tries ok she gets better) but because she's too arrogant and stubborn to take any other route

like of course she's going to take on insurmountable odds and save everyone she's nelia fucking surana

"Fantasy and science fiction in their very conception offer alternatives to the reader’s present, actual world. Young people in general welcome this kind of story because in their vigour and eagerness for experience they welcome alternatives, possibilities, change. Having come to fear even the imagination of true change, many adults refuse all imaginative literature, priding themselves on seeing nothing beyond what they already know, or think they know.

Yet, as if it feared its own troubling powers, much science fiction and fantasy is timid and reactionary in its social invention, fantasy clinging to feudalism, science fiction to military and imperial hierarchy. Both usually reward their hero, whether a man or woman, only for doing outstandingly manly deeds. (I wrote this way for years myself. In The Left Hand of Darkness, my hero is genderless but his heroics are almost exclusively manly.) In science fiction particularly, one also often meets the idea I discussed above, that anyone of inferior status, if not a rebel constantly ready to seize freedom through daring and violent action, is either despicable or simply of no consequence.

In a world so morally simplified, if a slave is not Spartacus, he is nobody. This is merciless and unrealistic. Most slaves, most oppressed people, are part of a social order which, by the very terms of their oppression, they have no opportunity even to perceive as capable of being changed.

The exercise of imagination is dangerous to those who profit from the way things are because it has the power to show that the way things are is not permanent, not universal, not necessary.

Having that real though limited power to put established institutions into question, imaginative literature has also the responsibility of power. The storyteller is the truth-teller.

It is sad that so many stories that might offer a true vision settle for patriotic or religious platitude, technological miracle working, or wishful thinking, the writers not trying to imagine truth. The fashionably noir dystopia merely reverses the platitudes and uses acid instead of saccharine, while still evading engagement with human suffering and with genuine possibility. The imaginative fiction I admire presents alternatives to the status quo which not only question the ubiquity and necessity of extant institutions, but enlarge the field of social possibility and moral understanding. This may be done in as naively hopeful a tone as the first three Star Trek television series, or through such complex, sophisticated, and ambiguous constructions of thought and technique as the novels of Philip K. Dick or Carol Emshwiller; but the movement is recognizably the same – the impulse to make change imaginable.

We will not know our own injustice if we cannot imagine justice. We will not be free if we do not imagine freedom. We cannot demand that anyone try to attain justice and freedom who has not had a chance to imagine them as attainable.

I want to close and crown these inconclusive meditations with the words of a writer who never spoke anything but truth, and always spoke it quietly, Primo Levi, who lived a year in Auschwitz, and knew what injustice is.

The ascent of the privileged, not only in the Lager but in all human coexistence, is an anguishing but unfailing phenomenon: only in utopias is it absent. It is the duty of righteous men to make war on all undeserved privilege, but one must not forget that this is a war without end."

- Ursula K. Le Guin, from "A War Without End." Utopia, 2016.
