a BIG part of the lore of Dungeon Meshi is how ageism is bad. About how the long lived races treat the young lived races like children and thus infantilize them and do not show them the respect and understanding they deserve simply because of their looks or short life spans. Whether its because to them they look like children in their eyes (like half foots and gnomes) or because the adult ages of the younger lived races are still in the child ages for the longer lived ones and so they get treated/viewed as children (we see otta receive comments about getting with minors when in reality she dated adult half foot women. so we already see this view towards things like this are a thing in the lore) We see this with chilchuck, senshi, and marcille where the two later view chilchuck as a child and treat him like one even though he is a full grown man who drinks (and is supposed to have grey hairs) all because he looks young and in the newest episode its revealed he is 29 which is still young children to the two of them. We see how perspectives that characters are children because of their age being a childs age for a different race as opposed to their race or because they look like children is a completely infantilizing and disrespectful behavior that causes so many problems in the long run. a theme that is completely flying over the average tumblr users head.
ive seen people get furious at other people because they sexualize chilchuck and even marcille
“oh they look like kids so dont do that you freak”
you absolute fool you missed a major theme of the fucking story. But because they look young suddenly they are children? have you paid no attention to the story? did you just ignore how the ageisim and weird mindset about ages like that causes so many issues that could easily have been avoided. and as for the age one i see people getting furious at others for being into and sexualizing izutsumi even though she is a year past adult in tall man years, but because she isnt in the adult age range in real life (wild your applying real life society standards to a fictional medieval fantasy world). even though even in lore she would be well an adult able to get married and everything tumblr really does have the media literacy of a toddler.
#dungeon meshi#idiots your missing a major theme in the story oh my god#its litterally just marcille saying chilchuck is a kid because to elves 29 is considered a child#even though he isnt an elf and is a half foot and so the mans dam near middle aged#but because 29 is a child in elf years she treats him like a child.#same thing with izutsumi#16 years is adult for tallmen and since she is 17 she is an adult#but because that isnt adult in real life human years (wild your applying real life shit to a fantasy world but whatever)#people get in a frenzied about people thinking she is attractive#like congrats your litterally just doing the exact same thing as the elves in the story do#like you have just completely ignored the lesson#chilchuck#marcille#senshi#izutsumi

major props to @hydinghoney for putting it into words better than i could!!
ok motherfuckers. ive seen some discourse about this and i need to settle this debate once and for all.
#reblog#this is. pretty much how i feel#for the most part i view them as two halves of a whole just because of context from the original jekyll and hyde#cause its like ok#edward hyde is the physical embodiment of everything that henry deems as 'unacceptable' within himself so edward IS henry and vice versa#for jax/holt tho it obv works differently so imo they're what others around them deem as acceptable/unacceptable#because jackson is this quiet well-mannered kid that you can take to meet the parents#and holt is the loud rude kid who you never take to meet the parents under any circumstances yk??#but if you put them together you would theoretically get a whole well-rounded person#its a personal headcanon of mine that because of the fact that neither of them are full people#their traits have to be amplified to make up for the empty space#so jax being a perfectionist would channel into being a total control freak#n holt being self-centered would lead to borderline egotistical#but thats just a theory.#nix devolving into madness hours#also hydinghoney in the books its p much the same!!#they dont really.. KNOW about each other for a while#DJ (holt) knows hes a hyde but he doesnt know that he inherited the jekyll part too it just isnt HIM yk#jackson on the other hand doesnt figure it out for most of his life#like 16 years to be exact#dj only figures out about jax because of a happy lil accident in book 2 hehe#go!! read the lisi harrison books!!!!!#definitely dont read them on internet archive where they're completely free!!!!#because thats piracy and is wrong!!!#maybe ill make a google doc compiling all the MH media i have saved.....#maybe........

*Ages of this post based on information from Jason and Tim's original runs in the 80s, as im still in the process of reading the comics and I respect original runs more anyway
Jason was 12 (pre-crisis, not contradicted) when Bruce adopted him at some point after Dick left, and Dick had left Wayne Manor for about 2 years by the time Jason died (Batman #436) making Jason 14 at death, to turn 15 that year if his birthday is August 16th
Tim is 13 when he introduces himself after Jason's death (Batman #441)
They have like, a 1-2 year age difference
Jason returns to life 6 months after his death, spends 1 year in the hospital, then 1 year on the streets before someone recognizes him as Robin, then 1 year with the league of assassin's before being thrown into the pit (Batman Annual #25)
A total of 3 years with Jason running on just instinct and muscle memory before being healed by the pit
Therefore, Jason, while physically older, is largely missing 3 years of his life
Jason is younger than Tim
Thank you coming to my ted talk
(Dont take this seriously please bcksbdjsnks)
#tim drake#jason todd#red hood#dc comics#batman comics#sometimes i see posts saying jason attacked a kid when referring to the titans tower attack on tim#jason is very much still just 1-2 years older than tim#at the absolute barest and most unreasonable minimum tim is a 16 yr getting attacked by an 18yr#as jason was 18 when put in the pit. im gonna take a wild guess here and say he spent awhile training and planning instead of immediately#starting the red hood arc#so for fun i decided to take the age situation to its extreme and say jason is younger lol#ever since jason attacked. Tim has been in a semi time loop to be 17 for the rest of his life#and is just getting younger than jason instead of aging. this is so sad#im like 100% “jason is younger than tim” has been said before by others its just so fun to me.#and i like taking a million pictures for reference whike reading comics and then getting to use those references#comic reference#OR. jason could've been 13 going on 14 when he died. which is so devastating to think about i choose not to#but it Is a possibility#timelines are so hard to think of without exact dates

it's so funny to me that so many people who read Wilder Girls were SHOCKED that Hetty and Reese just left the island instead of going back to save the other girls, as if it hadn't been stablished from the beginning that all the girls at Raxter pretty much take care of their own friends and say fuck it to everybody else
like what do you mean this girl who repeatedly said she cared more about finding Byatt and protecting Reese than anything else chose finding Byatt and protecting Reese over everything else in the end???? atrocious, who could have ever seen that coming lmao
#also like.........what should they have done instead lmao fought off the bear and the planes with their own hands?#people comparing what the Headmistress did to what Hetty did as if it was the exact same thing#forgetting that the Headmistress was a whole ass adult who had a responsibility to watch over the girls and protect them#and Hetty was a 16 year-old girl whose best friend had gotten kidnapped by the authorities in power as far as she was concerned#'Hetty was such a hypocrite' she's a teenager in the apocalypse stfu#you don't have to like the ending#but you can't say it didnt make SENSE#wilder girls#wilder girls by rory powers

I’ve been going through and reading sermons from Spurgeon. I found a website that has hundreds of them and I just stuck them all in a Google doc and highlighted the titles I felt interested me.
But I finally read his wiki biography tonight.
Was anyone going to tell me that I was reading the sermons of a 20-21 year old or was I supposed to figure that out myself 😂
#Y’all he started preaching at like age 16#I love this man#he frequently says stuff in his writings that I imagine God had him say just so I’d read them 150+ years later#(I know that’s probably not true but the dude speaks to my soul and I’ll often be reading a sermon and it takes a turn and starts#Addressing EXACTLY what I’m going through that week)#And like#his devotionals#God has spoken to me so many times through those down to nearly exact wording of questions and anxieties I have#Like?????#I wish he could have known that in 1856 he wasn’t just preaching to his church#He was preaching to a scared and anxious girl in her 20s 168 years later#If I got a time machine my first trip would be to see Jesus but the second? Spurgeon. Easy.#I need him to actually privately mentor me#Anyways#read Spurgeon y’all#Charles Spurgeon

Overturned German festival music is playing in the background, the benches are breaking, people are standing on the table, it’s cold af outside, grass slippery from the beer on the ground, the smell of grilled Nürnberger Bratwurst is in the air, people are screaming and fighting, your friends are lost and not to be found, your phone is missing and you don’t know what time it is and the 8 beer you drowned are hitting you all at once and the shots from playing Busfahren aren’t helping, at last you suddenly hear police sirens
#this is the exact look he is giving#honestly this is the average experience of a 16-60 years old here in summer#I feel like douman would enjoy the chaos#fgo#fate grand order#fate#fate go#ashiya douman

every day when i wake up i say to myself “dykeyuu you are not purchasing any sanrio merchandise today” but then i find the deal of the century……..
#like. i only buy it if i know for sure ill NEVER find it at that price again#2007 corduroy keroppi that literally doesn’t exist on the internet? $16#i came across it by chance and it took me hours to find evidence that anyone else had ever owned one#found a chococat one too from the same series but it’s pricier…#but it’s the only one listed anywhere that i can find so. perhaps#sike i found one in the philippines there’s TWO corduroy chococats on the internet#i mean there’s literally one reddit thread i could find from years ago confirming that this series existed#and it’s only got like two commenters who only vaguely remembered the series#and a handful of worthpoint entries confirming that a couple of each of them had sold on ebay at some point#all the other sanrio corduroy plushies i could find were from other series#there’s a hello kitty and my melody from the same year but it wasn’t the same series#both series were rereleases in 2007 and the original release year for hk/mm was earlier than cc/k#20in 2012 fiesta keroppi? $40 when he usually goes for $100+#(this includes shipping…)#was devastated to find an etsy listing for the 2010 limited keroppi build a bear for $85 that had already sold…#the next cheapest one of those is like $140#and dont get me fucking started on chococat#no build a bear should EVER go for $500#like be serious. maybe it was limited edition 14 years ago but it’s still a damn stuffed animal#manifesting they rerelease the original sanrio build a bears to beat the price gougers into submission#the intersection of two special interests: sanrio and buying things from people who don’t know what they have#throwback to the 1993 keroppi squeaky toy that i thrifted for 25 cents#just looked it up to see and i found the exact same one but only on worthpoint#he used to be a keychain… mine is just the little guy with no chain#comparable one from the same year same size/material etc just different design goes for $20+#context i refuse to make a worthpoint account and pay them just to see what things sold for on ebay they can kiss my ass#me when i need to infodump but gf is at work and has already heard like half of this

wait these audiobook exclusive 12th dr companions were designed to appeal specifically to me .
#ari opinion hour#they r literally jack and annie magic tree house but grown up#which is like. so important to me as a dynamic as someone who has been lowkey obsessed with the musical for the past. 16+ years#LITERALLY THERE IS ONE PART WHERE THE GIRL (ALEX) SAYS 'ITS BEAUTIFUL' AND THE BOY (BRANDON) REPLIES 'ITS BIG' AKA THE EXACT SAME EXCHANGE#AS AT THE END OF TICK TOCK. /AND/ EVEN IN A SIMILAR INFLECTION? LIKE COME ONNNNNNNNNN#the lost planet#like... its such an uncommon dynamic that this is only the second time im seeing it but actually theyre making me realize that it is like.#i guess comforting to me on a base level???#which lets be real. checks the fuck out#btw literally not because its like a real thing in my life Its Not but just because that musical is so important and nostalgic to me.#excited + passionate younger sister + lowkey anxious older brother who is always like hanging back and then relents and follows her SWEEP#its good

they should invent romantic attraction that isn't viscerally unpleasant and borderline physically painful
#i don't think the person this is about uses tumblr anymore but just in case if u think this is about u please dont read the rest of the tags#anyway tbf they sorta did but like. it's illusory it's a mirage it disappears if it's reciprocated#actual feelings for someone invariably HURT to experience and they hurt for a long time#i think i'm better at keeping my demeanor under control about it outwardly but dear god#i still feel the same way when i'm in love with someone as i did when i was like 16.#and yeah i'm only 22 that's not THAT many years apart but i've changed so much in so many ways#but this just feels the exact same#and the two therapists i've brought it up to like five years apart were not any help on this one#i just. if i could choose to make all my romantic attraction the ephemeral meaningless kind i absolutely would#tangentially related but i'm realizing i think i actually like romantic relationships more once the romantic attraction is gone#which honestly no negative emotions there that one's just a neat little factoid about me lmao#vent

… y’know. I know it’s simply the nature of the Internet, but there’s something both oddly lovely and dreadful about how things can just… cease to be. Just stop being there. Vanish into dust, save perhaps hollowed ruins should anyone think to archive it, faint echoes of what once was.
Only ghosts remain.
#oh my gosh shut up krou#Does this make sense? It doesn’t make sense why am I asking#At this point this is simply screaming into the void to be honest. I’m not really expecting comprehension.#I absolutely have not spent two hours trying and failing to track something down besides web archive files wdym#I am not specifying what but just. What do you do when it died sixteen years ago. What CAN you do. Nothing.#Honestly this has all been very frustrating. Sifting and digging and all that remains is dust and faint inscriptions.#If you know what this is about you know what this is about.#But given I’ve made maybe ONE very passing reference in tags AT MOST odds are good you won’t.#… ok fine this is about anime. Specifically a subbing team that went defunct back in ‘07 that I’ve grown fond of#only to find out it’s all dust in the wind. No means of contact. The website’s been down since July ‘07. The usernames generic by now.#It’s all just… gone.#The only traces it ever existed are dull phantoms resting in the web archive.#The open plaza of the forum remains but behind the doorframes lies only rubble. Faded scripts and broken tools remain but little else.#What led me down this exact rabbit hole was a little notetaking project I’ve been working on#and I noticed one episode was subbed by a different team than usual. I got curious what the usual team’s translation looked like.#Turns out it doesn’t look like anything because it no longer exists as far as I can tell.#Not unless someone miraculously still has it after 16-17 years.#…… it feels good to get that off my chest honestly. Even if it is weirdly specific.

one of these days we're going to have to reckon with how we talk about and treat fan authors, especially new writers, relative to other fan content like fan art. the blatant and casual disrespect directed towards fic writers is so normalized and i guess not-so-oddly mirrors how (at least the western side) the world has treated authors through the years. if i took half of what is said about fan authors or specifically their work, and applied that to fan art or fan artists, i have no doubt that i would be ripped to shreds.
anyway. if you guys could. like. just refrain from casually dropping how bad you think authors are or how shitty we are at making things. that would be swell.
#this post isn't about anyone in particular#and it's not something that's specifically happened to me recently or anything#i recently realized just how casual and normal it is to talk badly about authors in general#and now i'll pick it up in posts that just cross my dashboard#like it's blatant. not even in posts specifically about fic either it'll just be casually dropped sometimes out of nowhere#can't believe my standards have gone from#''hey maybe recognize the double standard in criticizing authors#and praising artists when they're both using the exact same language when criticizing how people engage with content''#to ''hey please don't shit on 16 year olds who just started writing and making them feel bad that their writing isn't immediately stellar''

Donald gets it from Scrooge
#ducktales 17#dt17#donald duck#scrooge mcduck#the fact that little donald seems to take after the teen scrooge in a way makes me so insanely happy#i can see a 16 year old donald with those exact same thick bangs#and scrooge not knowing whether to love it or hate it because that hair is over the top BUT he did the same thing#scrooge's hair is also a bit like della's too#but my hc is that donald takes almost completely after scrooge and I will die with that
