Not to make another very specific petty rant that is only based off of random interactions I had months ago and my mind suddenly reminded me of but I remembered one time someone said mecha is a more male centric genre in context of me criticizing how some shows portray females and I fear for how many people agree on that when it’s STUPID. Yes, it’s very much action heavy, it might as well be a shonen demographic, but also ignoring how females can enjoy action bc that element is not gender specific: Most mecha’s DON’T HAVE GENDERS so they can be piloted by anyone regardless of gender. There is nothing wrong with people wanting good female rep in mecha’s especially if they identify as a woman because this genre shouldn’t be bound to one gender. Literally let more woman pilot the robot or at LEAST be very strong supporting characters.
#meg text#mecha#coming from a non binary bean who is very masc leaning and loves men#cause I can at least acknowledge when female rep is bad and should be accounted for#we also just- had a handful of female leading mecha??#rayearth is a weird cause given it’s also magical girls so someone might not see it as mecha but GUNBUSTER???#it was made in the 80s TOO#or just when the cast is primarily males but there’s still at least one female pilot#this con did not form out of gwitch stuff but feel free to apply it here anyways#also idk the exact scope of female mecha representation but I’m expecting it to be fairly mixed#as in “most always they are a supporting character and when they do pilot there’s some consequence”#idk if I’ll ever watch enough mecha to find out though#but I’m still ranting regardless bc this is vaguer compared to other shit on my mind rn

i love the interpretations of Any of the pines being trans but to me mabel and dipper Are fraternal twins they are just also both trans. they just swapped names and ‘pretended’ to be the other. i know dipper being transmasc is like the most popular trans hc in the fandom, so to me this is why dipper’s name is mason but he always wanted the name tyrone
#mabel is wearing sweaters in the summer. idk kinda transgender#unless oregon is cold in summer. but last episode i think soos mentions it’s like 80°#(saying it’s too hot for stan to be wearing a sweater(the one mabel made him)(bc he says he’s wearing it bc it was cold)(lying)#anyway she’s still wearing a sweater there#and ford !#i think it’d be funny that they’re all trans.#like the more trans people in a family it just gets funnier imo. what are the odds#<-i say this lovingly. i am under the transgender umbrella#also imagine w me Stan who was there when the kids were born meeting them again now age 12 and at some point going#’wait i thought mabel was the one with the birthmark’ and they’re like ‘wow you confuse siblings even when they’re different genders. smh’#the kids probably dont know stan is also transgender. or maybe they do. is it funnier if they do#gravity falls#words from the monarch

this screenshot is sending me . babes . they slapped a pair of reading glasses on her and called it a day .
#doctor who#dw spoilers#dw bts#ruby sunday#millie gibson#73 yards#i have all the respect to the make up department on doctor who. and i suspect they went for something very subtle#like just shading in natural face creases that just unfortunately didn't show up that well on camera#also paired with the fact that ruby was still hopping about like a 19 year old at 40 (tbh good on her.) ace did the same thing and that was#just sophie aldred bringing her all when she got the chance to reprise her role (good on her too)#it did however have the side effect of making ruby's jump from 19 to 40 absolutely hilarious#especially because the jump from 40 to 80 really was just another older actress and that made the whiplash even funnier

not related to noco at all but what is katie and sadie’s relationship like now?
pretty good all things considered! while they're both married to two sweet guys and have separate families (none of their kids are other td characters, unfortunately...) they're still really close, and still live next to each other at that same beach town they grew up in, now both running that successful 80s themed ice cream business they've been dreaming of! its safe to say they probably suffered the least on Total Drama, only leaving with a couple of minor scars, good god were they lucky..
#noco family au#total drama#total drama katie#total drama sadie#total drama katie and sadie#where are they now#I mean its ok to ask non-coco related questions here I won't complain#and I guess it makes sense talking about these two since they made like#a VERY brief cameo in the Wayne arc#just thinking but I've been too harsh on these two for a bit now they're actually pretty sweet#like yea they were annoying and gimmicky on the show but#they kinda feel like wasted potential#like their bios talk about so much we don't see in the show#like how they love the 80s#or that they make their own ice cream#or that Katie sews their clothes from scratch?#like#that's fucking adorable#but then they're resorted to annoying filler characters#like I sorta get it from a writing standpoint but..#when Katie was voted off they did sweet FUCK ALL with Sadie#like Sadie didn't even SPEAK until the episode she was eliminated#and then they don't show up again unless its to simp for this seasons hot boy or whatever#idk

I unironically love how blatantly late 80’s early 90’s all the brothers’ styles are in “The Clothes Don’t Make the Turtle” because like…of course those are their styles! The majority of the media they grew up adoring is heavily influenced by that time period, so it makes perfect sense that they all took inspiration from it. It’s honestly super cute to see, they’re such kids I swear.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#the clothes don't make the turtle#rise of the tmnt#they’re soooo influenced by media#which makes sense as it was the place of bonding with their father for the most part#but yeah a lot of themselves can be directly harkened back to what media they consume#I mean just look at Donnie’s eyebrows and compare them to Lou Jitsu#Raph’s idea of police and justice is very 80s action movie too#Mikey’s all about bright colors and stuff which is much more common in that time period#(as opposed to now where neutrals are more common)#and we all know Leo basically made himself into an expy of Lou Jitsu

are you FUCKING kidding me. this is the wapeach that got instantly shot down by Miyamoto and banished to the Nintendo vault for practically 20 years????? this is literally the most inoffensive take they could have done on an "evil peach twin" and it was still too much for the old man.
i don't even know what to say at this point lmao. this in a nutshell i think perfectly shows why no matter how much cool shit nintendo does they'll always be held back
#vi posts#some tweet says the real reason for her rejection is bc she's too similar to the character shes inspired by (Doronjo from Yatterman)#but i call bullshit on that they only look vaguely similar. i've seen team rocket homages that take bigger lawsuit risks than this#and like. i really don't mean to slander Miyamoto but let's be real here#it's really not that hard to believe a video game producer in from the 80s who'd only ever made princesses before#simply didn't want an antagonistic female character in his game

9/9 - Dick Grayson tarot card designs for Complete Candor by @vexfulfolly as part of the @batfam-big-bang
Read the fic here!
Other cards:
1-Babs 2-Cass 3-Bruce 4-Tim 5-Damian 6-Jason 7-Duke 8-Steph 9-Dick
Image IDs
Image 1:
A design of "The World" tarot card. It has the texture of recycled paper and reads "THE WORLD". A symbol of two clouds is visible behind the numeral "XXI".
Dick Grayson dives confidently downwards in his Nightwing uniform with pupil-less white eyes. His arms are spread wide. He plummets through a deep blue sky with large stylised cream-coloured clouds partially obscuring him in the foreground, and some less-visible in the background.
Image 2:
A design of "The World" tarot card. It has the texture of recycled paper and reads "THE WORLD" upside-down. A symbol of a theatre mask is visible behind the numeral "XXI".
Dick Grayson falls backwards in his Robin uniform, a hand reaching up desperately with one white pupil-less eye visible. He falls through a dark blue sky with partially- visible clouds in the background, and large stylised cream-coloured clouds in the foreground, partially covering him. The entire card is upside-down.
#dicks were the FIRST ones I made#before even thumbnails- i KNEW what I wanted his cards to be#the upright card design is heavily inspired by that one Dan mora cover for worlds finest#and reversed by a nightwing cover- I think one of the first of the TT run#the heartless run for sure. I think maybe issue 80 or 82 or something around then#so basically- nightwing design inspired by a cover of robin!dick and robin design inspired by a cover of nightwing#I redid the typography on these cards like 5 times#it took. long. a long time#I almost finished and then realised the font sizes were too large for babs so I had to rewrite them all#and by hand. because it’s procreate#dc comics#fanart#dick grayson#nightwing#robin#batfam#the magnus archives#tma#tarot cards#tarot art#my scribbles

It has always bothered me how aroaces can pull the "it's the same thing," bc that has been said to me before. But my aro-ness cannot be singularly just aro without being assumed to be aroace by even people I've come out to before. And so then it's made aware that I'm still allosexual, just like I was before when I came out as bi, and suddenly that's contradictory and two separate things and how uncomfortable most aces can get about allosexual things - even tho my aromanticism defines my sexuality and my sexuality is an aromantic sexuality. For me it is one and the same too, but I have to be ripped apart to just belong as "aro." Rinse, repeat, for 12 years now. Rinse, repeat.
#this is an aroallo post#aroallo#alloaro#i hope this made sense. im just cycling through thinking about deleting this aro account too#my posts#im not sure if i should tag as non sam aro but i often do think of myself as Just Aro. ya know? but with like 80%of the aspec community#being ace its kinda like 'ace or bust' so aroallo fits the best for me lol#also im estimating 12 years. i started college.... 13 years ago. and thats when i started questioning. so 12 is roughly right#im actually worried to hit post lol. but i have felt this way for a long time and this week on tumblr has me feeling a way

Literally a lurker on your blog since ur early days but too shy to slide into ur ask box, hiii!!! I keep seeing cryo anon and teddy anon's brainrots and asks,,,, and like, regarding post impostor AU hehe
imagine after the hunt when your fave character/vessel begs you for forgiveness the most, practically turning their voice hoarse from their pleas to share just a bit of your mercy....
(you never showed your face to them, even when they were your most favored. how selfish of them, wanting more than they could ever deserve. but they can't help it. if you wanted them to die a thousand times over to repent, they would. just please, look at them again.)
post imposter au always tickles an itch in my brain I've never known existed. angry creator? boiling hot rage creator for their acolytes killing them when they've shown nothing but love and kindness for this world?? SIGN ME THE FUCK UP LORD
I wanna see guilt. And I mean GUILT. it's probably cause I'm petty asf and if I would be killed over and over and over again only for them to realize I'm not the fake I would literally lock myself up in whatever tower they built for me and never talk again. Creator's trust? Shattered, irreparable. Followers? Wallowing in the despair.
Thank u and goodbye heh. If it's not too much, can I be called Marcotte anon? Hehe fontaine reference hhhh,, anyways have a good day ily and ur fics <3
post-hunt can be incredibly good, entirely agree
the love you felt for the world is so strong already, and it only grows as you finally get to teyvat. being here, feeling the elemental energy, feeling the world greet you as you return after your rest.. what hate is more powerful than a love turned rotten?
you hid behind your veil, uncertain if you’re protecting yourself or them. it hurts to see their eyes tearing up as they plead, but what else are you to do? your hands shake when they draw close, and you can’t erase your own memory.
(you’d know. you asked nahida about it, but she’d only shaken her head. all she could do was clear the memories of teyvat, but not yours. it hurt, but was probably for the best.)
(despite it being a failure, that day was the calmest you’d felt in weeks. she was easy to talk to, and made lovely tea. perhaps you should visit again, if only to take a break from… everything.)
your solitude is comfortable, most of the time. a few of the hunters are a bit too comfortable with their sin, and are the ones tasked with bringing you food and other necessities. it’s not much better, though, since you can still see the guilt sinking in their eyes.
it’s a lose-lose all around. you want to see them, you want to see the world, but every leaf and branch is stained with the memories of the past, what used to be your favorite retreat now something else to hide from.
part of you is angry. furious at how easily they were tricked. it’s hard to stay mad at those you love, though, so you end up sitting in your window and watching the wind blow safely behind glass. your tea is from inazuma, this time, the faint edge of bitterness keeping you from sinking too far into much of anything.
leaves dance in the breeze. you won’t be seen again until they’ve long turned brown.
#i am. so sorry i meant to post this like three days ago fuck-#i’m normal and have normal working memory i swear#m1d : [chats]#marcotte anon#fontaine :]#also i’ll#m1d : [sweethearts]#sorry if this isn’t what you wanted i just be sayin words#hmm i was gonna say i’m gonna write for fontaine again but i think that would be too repetitive—#(i have made over 80 formal posts. of course i’m gonna be slightly repetitive)#two cakes it’s two cakes it’s TWO CAKES#as a reader it’s ‘i want thirteen exactly like this’ but as an author it’s ‘this was vaguely similar to something i posted a year ago :(‘#not technically a year but WHATEVRR#anyway anyway anyway um. freminet <3#he’s got that flavor#god he just like me fr#i will build him or so help me god#i will be PRODUCTIVE TODAY i will be PRODUCTIVE TODAY i WILL i WILL

just having a normal one thinking about how badly Armand wants to be loved but every time he gets close to it, he self sabotages and ruins it. almost as if. he subconsciously doesn't think he deserves it.
#I'm fine I'm good I'm so normal about him#he does it with EVERY romantic relationship we see him have it's insane#first with lestat and their whole Thing. especially the nicki stuff we haven't seen yet.#then louis. like he lets himself have it and then realizes it's possible for it to work and IMMEDIATELY blows it#by you know. trying to kill him. actually succeeding in killing his daughter.#making sure there's no possible way louis will ever forgive him even as he plots and manipulates to underplay his role in it#they loved each other but armand made sure it would never be in the way he craved the most and then punished himself for it#by strong manning the relationship together with hot glue and stickers even if it was hurting them both#AND THEN with daniel too ffs#DOUBLE of it with daniel if past-devil minion happened too fuck#turning him and then leaving him bc daniel SEES him for who he is and he's not afraid (I mean he is but YOU GET WHAT I MEAN)#possibly erasing his memories of him from the 70's & 80's as both a fucked up attempt to keep daniel alive#(which tbf it works but is STILL a fucked up thing to do)#and to get himself out of a situation in which someone finally started to love him unconditionally the way he wants so badly#but he can't let himself have that can he#I AM SO NORMAL ABOUT THE VAMPIRE ARMAND GUYS#I might be wrong idk I have yet to rewatch s2 but#BUT IT HURTS ANYWAY DONT IT#iwtv#armand#iwtv amc#the vampire armand#interview with the vampire#iwtv s2#armandposting#robin going insane about armand again#iwtv armand
