#baltoy#now okay let's just get the elephant outta the room. baltoy? what does this mean. is it a toy that happens to be a ball. because that's how#i've parsed it my whole life. and i've always not understood it because this thing is a top and not a ball#it's also what like. ground/psychic?? i think that's cool but it's just. like what's it got going for it. i forget it exists regularly and#don't even know if it has an evolution to make it competitively viable#where's that one person who said they were gonna do competitive facts on every post and then only did it on one. i miss them#whatever folks have things to do. not everyone has the time to dedicate to a silly little tumblr blog like i do. so here i am#telling you nothing about baltoy. go girl give us nothing. i am giving you nothing

Anyway I wish this show was actually bold enough to give Miguel an arc exploring his feelings of entitlement over the captaincy spot. Throughout the show Johnny has repeatedly told Miguel that Robby is a lost cause but hey, It’s okay because he has Miguel now. That Miguel’s his champion, his Number One Boy. So how could Miguel not feel at least somewhat entitled to the captain spot? How could he not feel insecure about his place in Johnny’s life with Robby not just back in the picture, but now literally taking the number one spot? When Johnny has repeatedly put into both kids heads that when it comes to his love and attention its one vs. the other, how could there be no lingering feelings of resentment and jealousy?
#like my kingdom for them to let miguel have Real Actual Feelings about anything ever!#i dont have any real hopes of them actually exploring this#i think any frustration miguel feels towards robbys will be framed solely in the context of him being stressed about getting into stanford#which is also like. i wish this show would show us WHY miguel cares so much about stanford#and its not like its not understandable!#people talk about robbys trauma bc its so plainly obvious#but after the year or two miguels had it makes sense that he wants a real tangible Win#that he wouldn’t want all the pain and trauma to be for nothing. that he can spin it as a triumphant story of how he overcame#some extreme adversity to get into one of the top schools in the country#but the show hasnt actually shown us that miguel feels that way at all#and i dont need them to spell it all out for me hut man it would be nice to give us SOMETHING. literally anything even remotely close to an#actual arc for Miguel before the show ends#and like none of this is miguel or johnny or robby hate btw…characters are flawed and thats a good thing#i just wish the show would actually explore the impact of those flaws on the people around them#and also jealousy is a very normal feeling as is competition in sports#but it would be cool if the explored how that is compounded by everything johnny has put these kids through and the way he has constantly#even if unintentionally positioned them against each other#but anyway!#cobra kai#miguel diaz#robby keene

Saw people hating on Axolotl on the WoF subreddit and like goddd who cares? Nobody would care about them if Wren hadn't specified that they use they/them pronouns. "Tui is shoving in inclusivity" Tui has been including queer characters in WoF since 2014 with Umber being gay. Tui just likes adding in representation. There's so many queer characters in WoF and it was only a matter of time before she included one with they/them pronouns. I just think it's kinda neat is all. Do I wish Axolotl had more presence in the story? Eh, maybe. For now, I think they're fine as is. Definitely not worth arguing and fighting over
#The people also misgendered them by using she/her instead#Me when I'm in a queerphobic competition and my opponent is WoF Reddit#Or Reddit in general let's be honest#sp-rambles#wof

anyone want to do a little tumblr fan project/ experiment with me today? You know how Louis trends on here every time he plays a show, right- even though neither I nor 98% of my extremely active louie dash ever tag a single post with his name. I'm pretty sure the margins on this site are small as hell and I was thinking I'd try just tagging all the show posts today for the heck of it and see what happens. If you, my fellow show watchers, do it too I bet we can get him to number one like nothing, how about it?
#louis tomlinson#<- see like that#someone else is gonna have to tell me if its working I use tumblr with so many layered adblocks and xkit versions#I literally wouldn't even know where to begin to try to make trending topics visible for me#also a question: do only original tagged posts count or also tagging reblogs does anyone know?#we couldn't quite get number one on wikifeet but this is our home ground we have advantage#we can take over tumblr no problem lets goooo who tf is gonna stop us now etc#although with @tommos at work can we really run a competitive louie campaign😭

“Look who finally showed up.” Ladybug’s voice was the quiet kind of rage, an animal she was just barely keeping penned up. “I was starting to wonder.” She looked at him like he was a dead thing.
good morning and happy call it even chapter 6 day to me and @sha-nwa and all those who celebrate<3
#listen the chapter title selection on this one was a doozy. let me tell you.#so many good options#stiffest competition was between this one and 'a simple complication' from the story of us#but ten thousand bad moments from vicious won out.#both just sort of making fun of how terrible adrien's life is#but! well!#adrien sort of does have a terrible life. I feel that writing him this way is true to his character#anyway#HAPPY CHAPTER SIX DAY#im posting this so early bc otherwise it would be at literally like 5pm and I dont have the patience for that#ml#call it even#miraculous ladybug#mlb#ml fic#ml fic rec#adrien agreste#marinette dupain cheng#adrinette#ladynoir

Happy December! Here's what advent calendars I think the characters in TMA would have!
Jon: Socks, probably. Maybe ties? Something that would be advertised as "top advent calendar to get your grumpy husband 😜". Martin bought it for him.
Martin: Teabags. I don't think I need to elaborate.
Sasha: Something really elegant and cool like second hand books or handmade jewellery. She probably saw it on etsy and told Tim about it and he bought it for her.
Tim: One of the shitty aldi own brand ones.... Sasha bought it for him as a joke. (he was even happier with it than sasha was with what he got her.)
Melanie: Some kinda murder mystery one where you get a piece of evidence each day and you have to solve it before the 24th (if this isn't already a thing it should be)
Basira: A coffee one with different flavours every day. Daisy got it for her.
Daisy: Same as Basira. They both got eachother the same one and they open it together each morning and discuss the flavours...
Elias: He has an original victorian paper one that he's always used. He lets out a little chuckle every time he opens the pictures. Even though he knows exactly what each of them is.
#There'd obviously be a lot of competition about them in the archives#Everyone's boasting about what they got that day and why it's clearly the best#This is such a meaningless post ngl but I'm so obsessed with advent calendars so I have to subject everyone to this#When I was a kid I used to beg my mum to let me have them all year round.... There's a bit of lore on me for y'all.#tma#the magnus archives#the magnus institute#jonathan sims#martin blackwood#tim stoker#sasha james#melanie king#basira hussain#daisy tonner#elias bouchard#tma posting#tma memes#tma headcanons#jonmartin

actually, you know what? while we're out here electing criminals, how about we pay people who are working in incarceration a fair wage, how about we free people who were imprisoned for weed, and how about people who are/were incarcerated being able to vote? why don't we lower recidivism by developing a union that can provide work references, housing opportunities and job opportunities for those who have just gotten out of prison?
i mean, since we're all about giving a rapist, tax dodging felon a second chance at the highest office in the nation. seems fair, no?
#irl#us politics#slave labour in prisons#made in the USA often means made by incarcerated slaves#stop jailing people just to eliminate the competition with “legal” weed distributors who were active before those trendy laws got passed#since we're about to have an actual Criminal in Chief let's have conversations about how we treat all people considered criminals

Memory loss associated with Adhd has got to be the stupidest and cruelest symptom because without fail it's like. Me wavering on whether I should take my meds every single time, followed by sitting on my dumb ass three hours later going "wow, I'm actually feeling emotions and connected to people I've loved and lost and I feel capable of facing the complicated grief and emotions associated with a lot of those memories. I wonder why that - oh. Right. I'm a whole idiot."
#Listening to music from high school/all state band and the first one I thought to pull up#Was of course the piece they played at my friend's funeral ten years ago#And I fully haven't listened to it again even though it was a piece I really loved#And today I just let it wash over me#The recording they used at the funeral was the recording that contained him playing in that year's band!#I was two seats down from him and also in that recording#We were in district honor band together every year swapping who was first chair#But I went to state twice and he went once and it was a constant sort of teasing#I really liked him#We reconnected a couple years after high school but he had already made his plans and was just glad to have me back#For the last little while of his life#One of the only people I ever felt safe being competitive with because we were on the same team even when trying to show each other up#We made each other better musicians#If and when I go back to music and all of THOSE complicated memories I'll be carrying him with me#We should've had more memories#We should still be goading each other on#I should be able to call him up and tell him I'm thinking of him but I can't

i know this has been said 473773474833 times by the kavetham/haikaveh shippers and probably even nonshippers, but i'll say it again. I finally finished the genshin summer event and did the little after quest in sumeru and.....every time kaveh is sneaking around trying not to be noticed coming out of alhaithams house it's just such a gay vibe. he's basically screaming "I can't be caught being gay in a homophobic society!" even if that's not what the game writers are *actually* saying. that's just how it comes off and they can't make it come off any other way. with hoyo's gay history, it makes me wonder if it's on purpose and all a cover-up to have a technically different reason for it so they can get away with it lmao but we will never know.
#lee text#genshins#i can acknowledge how gay they are without liking thr ship#flashback to several kavetham/haikaveh (whatevwr their ship name is) shippers on here attacking me over not liking the ship#trying to “educate” me on why theyre sk gay and why i should ship it#look i didnt say they arent gay af. and these shippers dismissed my feelings completely#i think it was after that one event with the competition thing that kaveh won? idk but just they way they interacted#the way alhaitham talked to kaveh and the way kaveh responded TRIGGERED A TRAUMA RESPONSE IN ME#which made me dislike the ship and their dynamic! i didnt CARE if he was well meaning. the way he talked to kaveh#triggered a fight or flight response in me because it sounded similar to how ive been talked to and kaveh getting upset was similar to#how ive reacted to the same words. you can also argue my family cares about me like alhaitham does kaveh and its how he helps#but it doesnt mean its the kind of help we need and it doenst traumatize us lmao#so i dont get why people were so angry at me for getting triggered by this ship and disliking it for that reason#while i can still admit that they are gay af and seem to get a long a bit better after that and i can tolerate them now#since its been a while and i dont remember it enough to have a trauma response when seeing them anymore lmao#but its just annoying that shippers can be so toxic 💀 they care more about their fictional men ship than me. a real person. weird#not tagging the ship so i dont get more angry shippers in my notes....but they found me last time with no tags so hi. dont yell at me again!#but maybe no one will care since im putting my “anti ship propaganda” in the tags this time and not the main post lmao#just dont read my tags so you dont get mad at me for being uncomfortable by this ship dynamic. but if youre reading this...its too late#leave me alone they arent real and i am so im more important right 😅#let me shame the shippers that dismissed my real feelings because they think their ship is more important than a real person lmao#you cant tell me im wrong when a trauma response isnt a choice and happens against your will 💀#BE ASHAMED YOU NERDS#I WILL BITE YOUR KNEECAPS#sorry i just had to vent lmao

Another L for the Max hating Seb girlies, we love to see it! <3
#f1#formula 1#formula one#max verstappen#sebastian vettel#seb texting him congratulations for winning and telling him that he's got to do it#ie break Seb's record#my heart!!#but like if you remember or liked red bull era seb i don't get how you can vehemently hate max so much#because they're two sides of the same coin#and the things people hate max for seb did it first and was 10000 x worse about it lmao#the golden boots? Seb was wearing them at toro rosso i think even before his first race win#no.1? seb after the rule change was the first driver eligible to use it and did#like seb was the og kid derogatory the same way max was when he started#Seb got nicknamed the crash kid and max got called crashstappen when they were literally rookies and learning!!!#let's not forget multi 21 and the psychological torture he put Webber through lmfao#and like even at Ferrari let's not forget that time Seb on the radio told the race director to fuck off#even fucking marko went “too far” and it's helmet Marko ffs lmao#the grid dad propaganda was too successful and Ferrari+ Aston not providing good strategy & competitive cars defo didn't help#but like people who hate max but say they would've supported seb at red bull...#you wouldn't have#do not cite the deep magic to me witch i was there when it was written#seb red bull we were HATED and booed#hey history is a circle#and if you don't remember it you're doomed to repeat it

also not that anyone asked (or cares) but I want to make clear that while I do ship tsunade and jiraiya, I also wholeheartedly ship tsunade and dan. idk why a lot of people treat these two ships as one or the another and hate the other side rather than like both being something that can occur together. my main reasoning for this is I simply don't subscribe to the whole "one and only love forever and ever and can never move on" notion that Kishi himself loves so much. I like to think tsunade, while still holding a place for dan in her heart till she dies, would've ultimately been able to move on romantically from him. but not necessarily want to go out of her way to find someone else. and then comes jiraiya who after many years apart they begin to repair their relationship. and he's the only person left around that knows her deeply. and I don't see why she couldn't have started to develop feelings for him, just ones she wouldn't admit to. and I think many people like to think it's cause of the love she holds for dan she doesn't want to explore those feelings. and that's true to an extent imo. but more importantly it's cause she genuinely believes her love is cursed. and also that loving someone again would risk her losing someone close to her again. but anyway I like to think she did start falling for him in the end, whether she admits it to herself or not, but this does NOT mean she suddenly is completely over dan and don't love him anymore. I think grief and mourning is complicated and it's simply not true her loving someone new would mean she no longer loved him. they didn't break up after all, he died, it's so different. idk, to me I just don't think it's unrealistic for her to love someone new, while still knowing dan was who her heart really truly belonged to. so tldr I like jiratsu but I also love dantsuna and I'm sick of people pretending both ships can't coexist I guess.
#fuck idk where the hell i was going with this#this was meant to be a short post lol#then it became a stream of consciousness#i dont think i made a single coherent point here but theyre my thoughts nonetheless#also i use the panel in which tsunade says when jiraiya comes back she wont let him keep his cool anymore as canon proof#that she was starting to like him#but that's a separate post entirely#i will make a post one day analysing canon about them but not today#anyway yeah i love both ships i dont like that its treated like one or the other#its not a rivlarly its not a competition#tsunade deserves love is the bottom line for me#rambling#nart#tsunade#jiraiya#dan kato#jiratsu#dantsu#meta#hc#kinda#analysis#?
