Do you think Cu and Cae do dumb shit together

Oh for sure. I imagine they would have fishing competitions with each other. Cu introduces Caeneus to the wonder of Hawaiian shirts and he starts rocking them. Caeneus finds out about how Cu can't turn down any food he's given so he makes him eat weird shit to test it. They definitely try and out drink each other. I think they'd just get along well because they have similar personalities honestly. Also they have like, the Same pose for their sprites in battle which I just think is neat : )

All the stuff I’m getting rid of 😤 I’m deep cleaning my room and I decided to go through the stuff I’d put away a year or so ago… it’s hard saying goodbye to some of it, but it feels really good to winnow down on stuff I know I don’t have any need or use for. Gonna go donate it this weekend 🥳

I'm just imagining Tim going up to one of his siblings and leaning against them and then just. falling asleep. And they wouldn't even notice he's asleep until they try to move and suddenly he's falling and they have to catch him

Olivia fell asleep in one of the aisles again...

how do you feel about ren being used in an ai chatbot advertisement?

⌞♥⌝ Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I genuinely despise everything about this so much, and if anyone comes across this ad on TikTok (or anywhere else), I'd really appreciate it if you could report the video and not give it any further engagement.

I'm vehemently against the use of AI that negatively impacts artists, writers/authors, developers, creators, etc., and I don't condone the use of my art and IP without my knowledge and explicit consent — especially when it's being used in a paid ad/sponsorship. It's extremely disrespectful and I have no respect for those who do it.

CATS!! I can't stop thinking about this musical and these characters! I keep trying to figure out how Id personally translate their designs for things like animation and/or comics. plenty of these I'm not 100% satisfied with and I'm sure they'll change but here's at least my first attempt for posterity. I feel like I drew SO many cats and yet there are SO many I have YET to draw OTL

this musical is making me ill I s2g (affectionately)

Writers trying to convince Disney execs not to cancel Nimona, Owl House, and many other IPs:

It's almost laughable how ironic this scene is with what a dumpster fire Wish turned out to be

I deeply need for non Jews to be able to ask themselves the question "what if my understanding of the war between Israel and Hamas/hezbollah is fundamentally wrong?"

My point here isn't to say that your view is fundamentally wrong despite the fact that I personally believe it is. Put my personal beliefs and your beef with it aside for just one second and humour me.

My point is that if you believe in something strongly and believe your view has integrity and good structure, then making an honest attempt to look at it from an entirely different perspective won't shake it at all. You'll come back being like "okay I still have the same beliefs but now I understand how the other side(s) think." Which, hint hint, improves your ability to debate with and persuade people with perspectives that differ from your own.

I think some of you know that if you actually genuinely allowed your view on the war to be challenged and reevaluated, you'd have to admit that you were wrong, and that terrifies you. Embrace that terror, and hey if you were right to begin with, a genuine research venture into other perspectives won't change that.

And maybe if you do open your minds and find your understanding being shifted, us Jews, Zionist, nonzionist and antizionist alike, will have less antisemitism to deal with. That'd be nice. Personally, I'm tired.

Edit follow up thought: it's like the scientific method. How can you be sure that you're right if you haven't made an effort to try prove yourself wrong first?

[transingthoseformers]

Thinking about Ultra Magnus running one of those "[thing] explained" YouTube channels because not only would it be funny to think about, but because I can totally see him recording long explanations of various documents & laws and them being VERY in depth

I understand that castoria is in a weird place because she is artoria so ofc she’s a waifu to a lot of people, and she is a very cute and well written character so it’s understandable people like her like that, but also she’s like. Canonically a teen from what I understand? So I feel a little Weird. When people are aggressively horny about her @-@

like, I don’t want to shame anyone, because Artoria has always been in a kind of fucky position age wise anyway, and it’s not really a hill I care enough to die on. But boy. Some of the stuff im seeing from people is. Hmm! Hmm. Alright then.

Hey like, if you don't want to engage with my MAWS criticism- that's totally fine you know? No one is forcing you to read my metas and criticism on the show. And if you enjoy it, congrats! That's the majority of people, go have fun with them.

I'm a believer in speaking up and filling a space in media criticism when you don't see your perspective reflected. Most of the criticism I've seen of this show is "the villains suck" and generic dudebro talking points. I decided to speak up because I felt my perspective as an Asian viewer was important. And I love writing essays and thinking critically about media with characters I care about. It isn't just whining and complaining.

It's disheartening to write a post that calls out specific instances of performative representation or even outright racist moments in MAWS only to have people not engage in my point at all and say my opinion is "unearned" or I'm dismissed as "ruining the vibes" or "it's just a cutesy show don't take it seriously". Like do you not see how bad it looks that you're able to enjoy a show like that while someone like me doesn't? And you telling me my opinion is unnecessary because it's your fav show? Just don't waste your time, and more importantly- don't waste my time either.
