Carrie, The Green Mile, Stand By Me and The Shawshank Redemption were all better movies than books. Especially Carrie, that book was a mess.

here's my impression of anywhere on the internet

someone: what if it's hard being a mom because moms have no resources

everyone: she's a whore

two seconds later another person: I work at a printer place and a guy came in and said his wife told him to pick up the birthday banner she ordered for their son and I said what's the order number and he said idk and then I said that's okay what is your son's name or birthday and he said idk

everyone: okay but maybe he's autistic and has adhd and he should leave his whorey bitch wife

my entry of a sonic/amy/shadow bodyswap as seen in @eccentricglimpse 's fic Walk a Mile in My Shoes for the 2024 SONIC BIG BANG !!!! in a matchmaking mishap, sonic swaps with amy, amy swaps with shadow, and shadow swaps with sonic. (i also included my interpretation of a 2nd swap not shown in the fic, because i couldnt resist drawing shadow as amy) check out @frostios and @peachy-keenss for other fanart of this fic!!!

i am so thankful for the mods of this event and all writers, artists, and readers involved for fostering an incredible environment. this was a blast to be apart of, i cant see what the future brings. CHECK OUT @sthbigbang ❗❗❗❗❗❗ RAAAAAHHHHH

if i had a nickel for every time i encountered some version of the following observation in the mdzs fandom:

"i'll never understand why fans of jin guangyao and jiang cheng and xue yang keep insisting on defending these characters' virtues. you can just admit that your favourite characters are assholes and terrible people. it's fine. why are you defending them."

i could probably buy myself a packet of some really sick edibles the next time i hit up the dispensary. but more to the point, what truly frustrates me about this observation (aside from the implicit arrogance that seems smugly baked into it every time i stumble upon it) is how completely it misunderstands what villain and antagonist fans are doing when we discuss the positive attributes of our favourite characters. it's the assumption that what we're doing must always be about defence, about arguments, about insisting that the characters we like are Good, Actually, And Here's Why--when in reality i have never, ever, ever encountered a fan of any of these characters who has been interested in definitively declaring that any of them are good or bad people. like that just straight up hasn't been part of the conversations we've been having with each other.

like, what you are interpreting as us "defending a character's virtues" is very often just us literally stating how the characters' actions have had a positive impact on other characters' lives, or the world more broadly. or we are just trying to compare acts of cruelty/violence committed by one of these characters vs the acts of cruelty/violence committed by the protagonist and his inner circle, to draw inferences about one or both characters, to better understand them and the story and how they illustrate various themes, whether mxtx meant for them to appear in the text or not. it's just... analysis. and yes, a core competency when it comes to literary analysis means being able to critically defend your arguments using examples from the source material.

jokes about the jgy or jc stans and "defence squads" aside, it's not about defending individual characters, because the characters don't need a defence, because they're not real. but the work we've all collectively put into examining these characters, and contextualizing their actions within their circumstances within the source material, is certainly real, and it makes sense that we'd want to step up and defend our work when people who disagree with us choose to misrepresent our arguments.

do you think part of the reason why dokja’s face is so unclear/censored throughout most of the story is because his self as the oldest dream (ie 15 year old him) cant imagine himself surviving to adulthood

Does anybody else think about how Minthara is probably a very slow eater when she's with the group? About how she holds her plate, not eating anything. About how she watches, and waits for someone else to randomly drop dead. About how she doesn't start eating until after everyone has finished because it's the only way she can know for sure the food isn't poisoned.

Or about how sometimes she will secretly throw out the plate, completely paranoid about the food being poisoned. In which she silently prepares her own food in the background or eats the camp rations she gathered herself. Where she microdoses herself and her lover, not necessarily because they might return to Menzoberranzan, but because she thinks one of the other companions might poison her and her lover. Where some nights she has to insist on cooking besides the camp cook for the night or cooks entirely herself as it is the only guarantee that the food isn't poisoned.

Cause I think about it a lot.

my hottest doll collecting take (specifically monster high) is that a lot of y'all are way too dramatic about eye wonk. half the time the doll will have her eye like 0.05cm to the wrong side and the person will be like JESUS FUCKING CHRIST WHY DO I SPEND MY FUCKING HARD EARNED MONEY ON THIS STEAMING PILE OF SHIT! it's a doll. a little plastic monster. meant to bring joy. I usually can't even tell that something is wrong until they point it out. everyone take a breath

BREAKING: The Japanese Skating Federation has announced its selections for the men's discipline of the 2025 World Championships. Our heartfelt congratulations to the selected athletes - we look forward to seeing you in Boston!

1st: YUMA KAGIYAMA

TREMENDOUS: this baby acquired a sword somehow back when he was a baby and he still has it after all these years.

2nd: A PHOTOGRAPH OF SHOMA UNO

Not Shoma Uno. Just a picture of Shoma Uno. Like a literal photo.

3rd: McRIO

Although McRio's fame has been somewhat overshadowed by the success of his younger brother Rio, he is an excellent and fully grownup skater in his own right, comparable in skill to his brother in almost every respect. McRio was not able to attend Nationals this year, but he is reputed to have a body of work that is impressive enough to justify his inclusion on the Worlds team.

1st Alternate: MAO SHIMADA

Guys, it's Mao Shimada. Don't ask stupid questions.

2nd Alternate: MASAKAZU KAGIYAMA

One last job! One last job!
