just picturing utopia obito looking at roleswap rin & kakashi shaking his head like "smh they clearly haven't had a time-traveling plan-ruining ghost to tell them that a child utopia is the better idea" lmao
I think it's a good idea that Sakura time travelled to knock some sense into him, instead of him time travelling to knock some sense into himself, because I think he would have just started flexing on his past self for being a loser idiot who's so lame and incompetent, in comparison to his current enlightened self. Would not have been a productive conversation. He'd feel so superior to Rin and Kakashi, as if him being less insane is through any personal virtue whatsoever and not just a lucky ghostly encounter.
FWIW, I think of canon-ish!Obito as probably more evil than roleswap!Rin, but definitely less nuts. Ain't that just the way.

Why I sent back the McFarlane Toys - DC Multiverse Batman & Batmobile Gold Label 2pk (1989), Gold Label, Amazon Exclusive
Well, Amazon managed to do it again, they sent my Batman collectible (limited edition?? I don’t know ... exclusive? Yes) with no bubble wrap or padding inside the shipping box.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(above: damage to my box)
If this is what I'd call a must-have collectible I would have kept it with the minor damage to the box, but the real reason I'm sending it back is quality of both the Batmobile and figure here are very cheap. I got a gander at an open one recently and noticed that the Batmobile itself has no bells and whistles (i.e. functioning head or tail lights … they’re not even slightly transparent like real lights, just solid cheap look colors). I guess I should have taken a closer look when ordering, but they went quick on Amazon's website at the time of purchase.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Source: McFarlane Toys)
The huge faux pas here is that the Batmobile is only a one—seater, not two, like the actual 1989 car. No passengers allowed. Sorry Vicki Vale ... guess you should have checked too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Source: McFarlane Toys)
The Batman figure’s appearance is pretty lame too. Zero attention to detail. The cowl is not attached to the body like Keaton’s in the film. It looks more like Bale’s Dark Knight cowl. Both the center emblem and Bat-belt are gold instead of yellow (smh).
Tumblr media
The face is a miss as well. It shys in comparison to the old NECA Michael Keaton figure. Very generic face, looks more like the actor from the old On-Star commercials. Add this to the fact that you'll receive no interchangeable hands, so Batman can't even hold on the steering wheel.

Stats
McFarlane Gold Label Amazon Exclusive
BATMAN and THE BATMOBILE are based on their looks in BATMAN (1989) movie and includes a round figure display base
Incredibly detailed 7” scale figure based on the DC MULTIVERSE
Designed with Ultra Articulation with up to 22 moving parts for full range of posing and play
Batmobile canopy slides open for cockpit access
Batmobile is made to fit Batman and select other 7in figures
Included collectible art card with character art on the front, and character biography on the back
Collect all McFARLANE DC MULTIVERSE figures
Who knows if Amazon will ever get this back in stock, but with this subpar release I wouldn't sweat it if it doesn't.

happy 666, my fellow chaotic bisexual <3 om! brothers discover uquiz, what happens??
Hell yeah <3 let’s do this!
The Brothers Discover uquiz
Why are These Questions So Weird..? (Lucifer)
*sigh*, what’s MC doing now? Quizzes? Well, that’s surprisingly tame in comparison to the other stuff they get up to. It was good of them to want to stimulate their brain-
Wait, these are just personality quizzes? Oh MC…
Wait, MC wants him to try some quizzes? Really? Ugh, fine. Only because he’s simping doing it for the sake of the exchange program. The point of this thing was for humans and demons to learn about each other, right?
These questions are… questionable. And so are the quizzes… what mindless drivel is this? He’ll have nothing else to do with it!
*three hours later*
“Lucifer, you haven’t slept in like, two days, go to sleep.” “Not now MC, I need to figure out what kind of -core I am…”
He’s addicted. But the good thing is, he can kick his addiction as easily as it started! He’s Lucifer, the Avatar of Pride! Some mere quiz website won’t get to him-
Oooo, what kind of cake is he? What kind of cake is he?
Why Didn’t He Get the Results He Wanted :( (Mammon)
MC! MC! MC! Pay attention to him! Why are they lookin’ at their dumb phone for? There was a much better view right in front of em’. The view is him! MC! Look at him!
In a fit of jealousy, he swipes the phone and sees… quiz results? Eh? MC? Why is this phone saying you’re submissive and breedable? Who the FUCK does this phone think it is talkin’ to his MC like that?!
Wait… why are they laughin’? It’s a joke quiz? Huh… is he submissive and breedable?
No, but only because he lied on the quiz questions to get the result he wanted.
Soon both he and MC are on their DDDs swapping weird quizzes and showing each other their results.
According to this quiz, and Mammon’s spirit animal is a crow. Huh, that’s the most accurate result he’s gotten all day.
After a while he does get bored of it though. After of course, he makes a quiz of his own and asks Lucifer to try it, but little does Lucifer know that ALL the results are bad! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Ah, The Quiz Maker (Leviathan)
Levi both takes and makes quizzes, he knew about uquiz way before MC started taking quizzes to see what overrated vegetable they are.
Levi’s favourite kind of quiz are the fandom related ones that test his knowledge. Psh, these filthy casuals think they can beat his otaku knowledge? Don’t make him laugh!
Wait what do you mean he only got 6/13 right? Um, what the F U C K?
You know what? Whatever. He doesn’t need these stupid quizzes!
Five minutes after that, he’s back on the site.
Levi also likes to see what kind of fanfiction trope he is and who he’d be in a fanfiction. He always hopes for main character or love interest but he usually ends up getting “bitch who gets sidelined” or “mischaracterized baby”.
When he makes quizzes, he makes them as imbalanced as possible, and as a result, none of his quizzes get very popular.
MC needs to get him off the site because he just started a “how well do you know Tumblr memes” and we as a society don’t need to know if he was a Johnlock shipper.
GOD DAMMIT WHAT CAT IS HE????? (Satan)
MC? Why aren’t they reading the book he gave them? Was it that bad? MC? Satan waved his hand in front of their face a few times before they snapped out of their trance.
MC quickly explained that they got really absorbed in this quiz about what kind of cat they were. Everything else was irrelevant to Satan, he heard cat and snatched the phone. 
Ten minutes later and he was just breezing through cat related quizzes just to get to the picture at the end. No one tell him he can just Google cat pictures online, he’ll growl at you.
Okay do that if you’re a monsterfucker and you find that shit hot-
But anyway, after the initial cat bomb, Satan casually peruses the site, he likes the fiction trope quizzes a lot too.
Using his intense knowledge of both cats and books, he makes quite a few of his own quizzes to add to the site.
Oooooo, What Hand Cream Scent Should he Try? (Asmodeus)
Similar to Mammon, Asmo first got huffy that MC wasn’t paying attention to him, but on the other hand, they were keeping still while he painted their nails, so that was the only plus.
MC is honour bound to listen to him ramble! Why weren’t they chiming in with the occasional “uh huh” and “yes dear”?! This was an outrage! A scandal!
Oh, MC was doing a quiz on what kind of fruit they are? Ooo fun! Let him see!
Nail painting night gets out on hold while Asmo scrolls through assorted quizzes. He likes the dirty joke ones a lot (I mean, obviously) and he also loves the ones where they assign the quiz-taker a scent or perfume.
He’s always looking for inspiration for scents to try out~! This is great!
Beelzebub
Beel and MC were in the middle of talking about food, (surprise surprise) and Beel ended up asking about human world fast food chains.
“So, what one do you think I’d like?” “Here! Take this quiz and find out!”
Beel is a little confused at the contents of some of the question and quietly worries that if he hasn’t listened to the songs for the song lyric questions that his answer will somehow be corrupted, but he finishes the quiz quickly.
“Huh, yeah I can see you liking Wendy’s.” “Can we go?” “Sure buddy, when we visit the human world.”
Beel takes a lot of the food themed quizzes, but he quickly forgets about the site and continues on his day.
*Prolonged Snore* What huh? Quizzes? Space Quizzes? (Belphie)
When MC started asking the most random questions in the universe while Belphie was trying to nap, the Avatar of Sloth knew that his idiot human was up to something ridiculous.
“Why are you asking me about my favourite soda?” “Answer the question, cow-boy.”
After answering some more ridiculous questions, MC proudly proclaimed that Belphie really was a Pisces.
That… that was it? What the hell was MC looking at? A quiz website? Lame. He was going back to sleep.
Ugh, Belphie’s the lame one here guys. Smh.
—————
Ah Uquiz, you crazy crazy quiz site…

HOO literally had so much potential and it fell so flat especially in comparison to how solid the PJO series is. The Lost Hero was long and boring with too many stops and side quest to the main quest (SON had similar issues even though Alaska is cool) Jason is lame, Riordian messed up Piper, Leo is solid in TLH but he loses his character arc immediately in MOA. Frank and Hazel are basically Roman copy cats of Piper and Leo and none of the individual character arcs get enough room to breath to actually be anything!! It’s such a waste and I wish he would redo the whole thing tbh. And the dumb love triangle that was not needed for the plot smh. Shout out to Annabeth, Percy, Nico, Reyna and Bob for literally carrying the back half of the series on their backs.
speak ur truth bestie!!! 😌

takemitchy anon hater here
ur so right and whats even more annoying is that he gives a full speech and then suddenly everyone is miraculously okay like 🤨🤨🤨 and tbh he’s so dumb for a 26 yr old man. and in the manga he relies way too much on KIDS and he’s being spoonfed waaaaay too often by them. and sometimes when they fight he’s literally just 🧍🏼 i hate this man frrr like i cant even begin to say how he’s one of the shittiest characters in tr (there are only 2 shitty characters in tr btw he’s one of them)
and yeah he is loyal and some ppl are claiming hes doing his best bc he’s a time leaper like …. sometimes he time leaps and does not know shit on what to do. and i dont wanna spoil u since ur not caught up on the manga but a lot of shit goes down and sometimes u think if all his efforts in time leaping were even worth it cause he shifts his goals from one to another and doesn’t /always/ succeed. and if he does succeed someone is always there to save his ass and not him actually saving someone’s ass like he’s supposed to. anyway im gonna stop here im sorry this became like a fucking essay omg ive been waiting to tell someone abt this but i just know most tr fans are rabid abt me hating the MC (like i’m sorry i find the side characters more interesting? smh) and yeah i was so relieved u found him irritating and annoying, im sorry to dump this all on u as well, feel free to ignore this and im gonna stop here so i dont spoil u anyway ily and i hope ur taking enough rests <33
HDHDHDHDHDHHDH NO DON’T APOLOGIZE HONESTLY I WILL VINDICATE YOUR THOUGHTS
i also think because everyone in toman is a lot cooler than he is, he just looks exceptionally lame in comparison, and i feel like maybe i’ve just been spoiled by animes where a character starts off really weak in the beginning but then by the end of the season their growth is really obvious BUT WHEN I WAS ON EPISODE LIKE 11 AND HE WAS STILL GETTING HIS ASS FOLDED LIKE A CREPE I WAS LIKE 😟 no way IDK MAYBE ITS MEANT TO BE REALISTIC BUT I DO LIKE AN OP MOMENT EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE
I DO KINDA FEEL BAD THOUGH BECAUSE ATP IM JUST INVESTED BC OF THE REST OF THE GANG TAKEMITCHY IS REALLY JUST.....THERE

finally got diss work done for the day so im jumping into doing what i’ve been avoiding writing for the fic all week (a scene with é and f dealing with, uh, faramir’s weird mind reading shit) and, god, this really sucks. i’m gonna kick tolkien’s ass for writing that in as part of his character.
i’ve got to deal with —
figuring out what the actual parameters of his powers are, because they’re super not well enumerated, past: 1) he can understand people’s thoughts and emotions clearly; 2) can exert some level of control over them (and animals, lmao dog WHY); 3) he apparently can’t understand fully what éowyn’s thinking in the HoH (there’s a chance this is like some twilight shit where edward cant read bella’s mind, but i really want to avoid that because it’s lame as hell). 
i’ve been writing them so far as having a vague understanding of the ‘contours’ of people’s thoughts and emotions, but reflecting on the interrogation of gollum in the forbidden pool i think that’s actually an incorrect interpretation on my behalf. i do really love the approach taken in hearts and minds (if you’re reading this — hiiii), but i don’t know that i have the writing skill to handle that well enough. 
literally refusing to even acknowledge the comparison between him & denethor and gandalf. just not doing it. as far as im concerned it never happened, i fucking refuse to interrogate the implications of that. (as an aside, if people are routinely reminded of F&D when they see gandalf, how fucking galling must that have been for boromir????) 
éowyn being like, this is unnerving though, you see why i think this is unnerving, right? 
the context of this scene is that she’s just had a moment of intense emotional vulnerability, and woke up the next morning furious about it. instead of recognising that she’s actually, like, got a pal and someone to talk to about the miserable shit going on around her, she convinces herself that there’s no way she would have opened up to anyone of her own free will, and that it must be the weird elf shit that théodred warned her about re: denethor
faramir finding a way to explain it all that doesn’t immediately shut down their relationship, because obviously éowyn is not down forced emotional transparency, and, given the context of this particular AU, would obviously scare the shit out of her vis a vis dealing with big D. 
faramir also needing to find a way to do it that doesn’t admit more than he’s willing to admit about his feelings for her, because he’s still balls deep in the I’m Too Noble And Kind To Pursue You emo phase. awful shit, can’t wait for that to be over. 
doing all of that without doing the tolkienesque twelve pages of exposition, because this is a fanfic, and a LOTR fanfic at that, and people who read LOTR fanfic are fucking merciless at tearing stuff apart for factual accuracy and i genuinely, genuinely do not have the time or energy for it lmao. im just here to make the pretty people fall in love over and over in various situations smh

To all the PP themed blogs, in Tumblr, what if Beca wasn’t embarrassed in the shower? She’d take Chloe against the shower wall and then the next scene starts. 😆
ksjfdjkskfsdkf that would be a wonderful turn of events for sure. and one i’m sure has been explored in fics MANY times (as it should because it’s what we deserved smh)
but i think this can lend itself to a very interesting discussion as well. because aside from what we want, there’s also much to be said about canon characterization and how much we wanna focus on it. 
like, let’s not forget we’re talking here about beca in the beginning of the first movie. she was very young (compared to how old she is in the following two movies), she clearly hadn’t grown into herself fully yet (emotionally i mean, which is perfectly understandable), she was the most closed off we’ve seen her in the franchise, in an environment (Barden) she didn’t want to be in and in which she was still refusing at that point to participate, she was still flat out denying she could sing, and she valued incredibly much having her personal space (no exceptions yet).
so i never thought it was just embarassment she felt when her shower was suddenly invaded by the vibrant storm of a person chloe is. it was also her being uncomfortable and awkward and defensive, because she was discovered so vulnerable, not only physically (because naked) but i think mostly internally (singing, something she’d specifically said in the activities fair she wasn’t doing and maybe even considered lame in comparison to being a badass while creating her mixes). she had an audience when she would never expect to be having one, while she was doing something she clearly wasn’t confident in doing, or at the very least she didn’t want anyone to be aware that she could do or bear witness to. beca doesn’t want the spotlight, at all.
so she had an audience, who was basically a stranger, who took her by surprise when she was very vulnerable, who was a level of exuberant beca could never follow (at least at that point in her life), who invaded her space in more ways that just physically. no matter her deep connection to chloe even from that early on (evident by the fact that a so closed-off beca still relaxed enough to sing and harmonize with chloe and offer a small smile once they were done), and even if tom hadn’t appeared, i don’t think anything else could have happened between them then. again, this is my opinion and only if we’re talking strict canon compliance and characterization consistency.
also let me add that, even though beca’s sexuality is never addressed in the movies, she appears to be canonically portrayed as straight -or at the most, as someone who is attracted to men and could potentially also be attracted to women (pulling from the second movie and the whole Komissar...thing). let us not forget that even though we as a fandom have it as a sure thing beca canonically is attracted to women (because it makes sense) at least from the second movie and moving forward, cannonically it’s never confirmed or expressed beyond any doubt.
so going back to the shower scene and everything i have discussed here already, cannonically beca is definitely not portrayed as being blatantly attracted to women. even if she was questioning her sexuality at the point in time the shower scene happened, even if she had even accepted her attraction towards women, i don’t think she would ever act on it right then and there, nevermind taking the lead and making the first move. not while being in such a vulnerable state, not with basically a stranger, not while being as closed off and cautious of people as she was at that point in the first movie.
of course, despite this WHOLE ESSAY (anyone who knows me shouldn’t be surprised this turned into one) if the movie had actually offered us an r-rated shower scene there would be NO complaints from me skdjfsjkdk and i can see the other side of the argument and how that turn of events could still be justified in canon despite how beca as a character is in the first movie.
anyone having thoughts on this is more than welcome to share them and add to this post! thank you for the lovely ask (and the delightful images now in my head) anon :)

yoooooooo okay okay
so i just finished megalo box. 1 season. 13 episodes. done.
alright alright alright im gonna say this right now even tho its a lil cliche to say. 
it is not and will not be your typical sports anime.
some people were a little upset with how the final episode turned out that there was a little bit left to be desired. things like
“oh the ending was kind of lame” “the fight should have had more emotion” “really theyre just going to end it like that” “man i was super pumped for the final fight but that was just way over hyped i mean megalo box in general was super over hyped” “what a shit ending not even a good fight smh”
stuff like that. but like. what. the hell did you expect.
when it comes to sports anime like theres all this sort of weird idolization goin on and theres a lot of happy go lucky a hero’s journey sort of set up.  its good and its definitely a pick me up and they talk about friendship and it was the memories we made together and even if we loss we won in our hearts kind of thing. now dont get me wrong. i love that shit. its really nice to have something good like that.
megalo box tho? (to be fair i saw zero of the hype so i had no expectations about it i just happened to see some fanart of it from my favorite artists and i was like oof damn that shit looks good o damn its a series lets try and watch it) megalo box is a little bit harder to swallow (lmao not really but i mean in comparison to the routes that are usually taken in sports anime) ngl when he was joe was first throwin fights i really thought he was gonna do some big uproar to nanbu and then go off to do megalonia on his own and then prove himself or whatever. nah. he ate the fuckin cement. and nanbu? man that fucker did some underhanded shit, stuff thats not really put in to today’s series (like they do underhanded shit but like they do it so far that the crowd kinda ends up thinking the person who’s doing those shitty things is like either admirable or that theyre just so bad that they can be labeled as bad but their not held up to realistic standards) like there were parts where he paid for some of the things he had done he was shown as like a regular person like all of them were sachio especially like srsly i didnt expect them to go ahead and actually say that he was using joe to get revenge or even for joe to say “lmao yeah i actually dont care about your beef with your previous student i just wanna beat the shit out of him” like yo man like they were regular people and there were parts that were really good about each, annoying at parts, and parts that were like “yo dont be an ass” like there was so much more to each character and i mean the fights werent drawn out doing a back and forth back and forth that they usually do, making things hyper dramatic like everybody really had that much time to think a fucking monologue before hitting the ball to their teammate (dont get me wrong tho i get swept up in that shit and they do a hell of a good job at properly delivering that)
but the ending tho? wow it. yeah wow man. like wait before i go on like if you disagree with me thats totally chill but like this is just how it was for me its just my opinion so they definitely did have that going back and forth a little bit but they cut it short which im both surprised and happy that they did that feeling that i was left with that this is really what hes been working towards what gearless joe has been working towards is a feeling of i can do it and i did do it and ill do it again like him living out his life like oof man like hell yeah do what you like my boy cause i mean seriously lets all ask ourselves are they really gonna have joe lose? hell no come on its still anime so itll make these things happen but like from the very moment this series began you already knew who was going to win and you already knew how it was going to turn out and so they just stop it there cause you can probably imagine how it played out after that last punch and then the two of them sitting in solidarity? like jeez my dude thats some mad respect there and like all of those themes that a lot of other series try to do and put into their works like friendship respect teamwork trust honesty communication dealing with the past forgiving like it was portrayed and done in such an amount that was just right like not too much that its the only thing you can remember when you leave the series and not too little that it left you hella wanting more but just enough that its portrayed realistically and with a message thats still meant to get home like thats what megalo box did and was for me
so to wrap it up
megalo box was great
its been a while since ive had a series thats gotten me so wrapped up and so heartily content with its material that i can truly say that i love it

Hey Sparkle-Queen
Yea. I'm talking to you @klainebowsanddramioneflies I leave you alone for five minutes (shut up I know it's been longer than five fuckin minutes ok? Jeez. Cut a kid some slack will ya?) and all hell breaks loose smh. What I gather from your recent posts is that people are still stupid, and you're still overdoing your ever growing pile of glee fanfic. What is life Never fear, for I am here to make sure you don't drop your sparkly crown that matches the sparkly hairbrush you once bought just because it was sparkly 😂😂 (You didn't think I'd ever forget that, did you?) Now I may have been MIA for god knows how long (honestly you have my full consent to kill me for it) but, I'm gonna just do the thing I always do and tell you FUCK EM! The stupid co-worker who had the audacity to not leave you a cute note like everyone else? FUCK THAT BITCH. In all honesty, all those notes were probably full of generic bs she probably googled because she probably doesn't have the creativity to come up with some genuine shit based on the actual people she was giving them to anyways. And you my friend deserve some genuine creative shit. And all the rest of the people that make you feel like an outsider? Yea. FUCK ALL DEM BITCHES TOO. They don't know how much inappropriate for the workplace shit they're missing out on, and shame on them for it! Actually, I feel kinda bad for them now that I think about it. Because in my experience, that shit is totally necessary for life. Seriously. And you bring it in abundance. Smh @ them. They don't even know. Poor lame clueless people. And that patient that yelled at you? FUCK THAT BITCH TOO. Probably some crabby ass who's pissed at being there in the first place and just looking for something to go off about to someone. (I refuse to admit that has been me before so don't even go there) So yea. In short, pay attention to your lock screen more often Ms. Sparkly-Pants, and keep your head up. Just another day showing how dumb and clueless people can be. Don't let it get to you. Tomorrow I'm sure someone else will be just as dumb and clueless and stupid, but on the bright side, you at least know a few people who aren't totally dumb and clueless, and somehow I think that makes up for it a bit, don't ya think? 😉😁 P.S. When all else fails, just remind yourself that at some point in time and alternate universe and sheer lunacy, Draco thought it was a good idea to sleep with his cousin. Somehow, that amount of stupidity always makes every other act of stupidity pale in comparison 😂😂 (IM SORRY DRACO I HAD TO BUT I STILL LOVE YOU LIKE A FAT KID LOVES CAKE AND I DONT CARE THAT IM TALKING TO A FICTIONAL CHARACTER IN HEADSPACE RN) Ok ILY!!! 💜💚💜

“Ya look, ya meet, you try, you see. Sometimes it fits, sometimes it don't..”
2017 ‘A to Z’ Movie Challenge | A movie that starts with the letter ‘C’
Crossing Delancey (1988)
Plot: A Manhattan single meets a man through her Jewish grandmother's matchmaker.
Starring: Amy Irving & Peter Riegert & Reizl Bozyk
Directed by: Joan Micklin Silver
Scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kxyzb8LbVKQ
I find this little movie to be kinda charming. I recorded this once when it was playing on TCM and watched it like I don’t know how many months later, not thinking much going in, mostly cuz I forgot about it. lol But after hearing Ben Mankiewicz’s intro, it started to sound like it’d be a cute movie to just check out. And when I realized Peter Riegert was in it, I remembered how I really liked him in Animal House so I had that to go on. There’s some cheesy moments in there but the cast’s pretty endearing that I’m cool with it. Even tho Isabelle annoys the shit out of me tbh! lol It just felt like Amy Irving didn’t do a whole lot to make me like/understand her character until near the end when she realizes that she screwed up. Also, the writer guy Anton Maes was totally lame imo but I was glad that I was able to love nice guy Sam. Sam’s a very different character to Boon so it was nice to see Peter Riegert showing some diversity. He definitely made me feel sorry for him the whole time cuz all he ever wanted was for Isabelle to give him a chance and she kept turning him down. Cuz why? He sells pickles for a living? She hates matchmaking? Or a guy who actually treats her decently and is straightforward about how he feels? Smh. This a definite case where you root for the nice guy. Anyway, Reizl Bozyk steals this movie as Bubbie. She apparently only starred in one movie and it was this one & it’s a shame cuz she was so good. Very natural and funny. I also liked the side characters in this. I almost thought Isabelle’s friends would add this ‘Sex & the City’ vibe to it but they’re not in it that much to make that comparison I think. There’s things in it that age it but I actually think it holds up pretty good. It’s not a perfect movie but very cute so I’m kinda glad I gave it a chance.
