older experienced tgirl who lovingly encourages you (a bit too enthusiastically) to start testosterone but in reality she just wants your cunt to get tighter and taste better and for your sex drive to increase so you let her use u as a fleshlight more often
#mine#forcemasc#trans women in my life telling me that t was gonna make me sexier was such an important thing for me#like it made me feel so happy and optimistic and alive to know that medically transing my body wouldn't just be tolerable but desirable#for the right people#putting a delicious predatory spin on a classic

I’m convinced that people who hate Mabel have a) never watched the show and/or b) don’t have siblings. Because until they encountered Bill Cipher for the first time, there was nothing to suggest Dipper’s obsession with the journals was more important or valid than Mabel just wanted to have a normal summer with a whirlwind romance. And even after incident with the portal Dipper and Ford actively keep everything secret from Mabel and Stan so she has no idea of the stakes or what Bill is capable of. Add to that that her dreams of the future were all suddenly crumbling around her all at once, and it is perfectly reasonable if not expected that she would fall for an immortal chaos demon’s tricks.
Also, most of the stuff involving the journal that goes wrong is Dipper’s fault but he still pretends like he and Mabel are in it together. And those of you who are siblings know that Mabel takes it extremely well. Like if I had accidentally sold my body as a puppet to a demon and the only way I could ask my sibling for help was through a sock puppet, I would expect them to help, but only after they spent a good half hour laughing and making fun of me with the additional consequence would be that any time I ask them for a small favor in the future, they would remind me that they were the one to save me from my stupid mistake, so no, they won’t pass me the salt.
(Also, can we just take a moment to see the giant double standards when it comes to the romances that Dipper and Mabel’s have. When Mabel pursues a romantic people treat it as irrelevant and getting in the way of the plot even when it doesn’t. But when Dipper tries to win Wendy’s affection, people expect Mabel to drop everything, sacrifice her pet, mess with time travel to help set up a scenario which Dipper can win a carnival game as a flex.)
#gravity falls#gravity falls mabel#gravity falls dipper#bill cipher#ford pines#grunkle ford#stanley pines#grunkle stan#mabel pines#dipper pines#Mabel Pines is my favorite character in the show#she’s so optimistic and upbeat but still so realistic#like if the apocalypse happened and I was offered to live in a world of my creation I’d probably say yes#especially if I was Mabel’s age#she’s just a girl#also I find it weird that adults will watch kids shows and then be surprised when the kids act like kids#like if you’re not the target audience for a show then don’t get upset when the show caters to a different type of audience#especially in kids shows where you can expect things to go unrealistically well because it’s fun and happy#that’s my favorite part about watching kids shows is that kindness and good will win over selfishness and evil#if I wanted to see a gritty struggle for survival against a dystopian government I’d exist in real life for a moment

What did/do you like about Pharah?
Uh, gameplay-wise, I really love characters in shooters who rely on three-dimensional movement techs. Chaining together hover and jump to stay in the air for as long as possible and keep momentum is so satisfying, and picking enemies off from the sky made me feel like a bird of prey. I was a good Pharah main.
Story-wise, there unfortunately isn't much to canonically go off because Pharah is so underutilized and neglected. Her personality's pretty boilerplate "heroic hero" (she's literally inspired by Captain America).
But it's the crumbs/bits and pieces that I really latched onto. Pharah's a confirmed lesbian; her short story with Baptiste implies she harbors a crush on Mercy (fucking thank you.). She's biracial Egyptian/First Nations. She has major mommy issues, having grown up both admiring and resenting Ana. She's the bridge between Old Overwatch, inspired by the idealized heroes who surrounded her childhood, and New Overwatch. She's one of the only inter-generational characters in the cast; someone whose experiences span the gap, which is why I seriously believe Pharah would make a great main character.
There isn't much to go off of, though; she's a very uncomplicated character (she's a soldier for a private military corporation, lol.). But that just means she's a blank slate character, so I've seen fanfic writers run wild and create some really interesting takes on her. My favorite interpretation of her's a dense, herbo gym-bro type (a lot of her liens are about work outs, exercising, and playing sports) who's easily excitable under her seemingly self-serious, armored visage. We see how she tends to gloat and hype herself up when she's on a streak too, so Pharah definitely has a competitive and boastful side under her more professional and militant performance.
Now Mercy? Mercy is a real complex character.
#i was a diehard pharmercy shipper back then btw#the inherent homoerotic experience of pharmercy gameplay.#the homoerotic experience of looking to the skies to fly to safety under the protection of your knight in shining armor#the homoerotic experience of feeling white hot murderous rage at an enemy trying to pick off your pocket mercy#i still kinda despise gency lmao. you cannot convince me mercy would be in love with genji. at all.#he'd make her feel so uncomfortable and guilty. in my head. the canon is obviously different#gency is sexless. absolutely zero bite or tension.#i could go on about mercy and how her character has so much missed potential#i'm no longer in my overwatch fandom phase but#i still think about that new flirty line they added in ow2 where mercy goes “ahh you're like my knight in shining armor!”#and pharah goes “that's what i'm goin for ;)” and i sigh dreamily#really happy that pharah outright says she's a lesbian too but it's hard to feel good about rep when you know blizzard uses it for pr#to be honest i'm willing to bet cash that blizzard's keeping pharmercy in their back pocket as ammo for the next controversy#last year we already saw logs about pharah fretting and taking care of mercy and the two talking about how good it is to see each other#tbh pharah has the same energy/demeanor as applejack. cheerful and competitive in a can of whoopass#but yeah overall pharah's a pretty shallow character. i have IDEAS on how i'd go about deepening her but. whatever#that's sorta what happens when you have to juggle a cast of 40 characters. a lot get left with the bare minimum#ok so i wrote this entire post up saying that pharah isn't in ow2's storymode when she is. she's in the story i just. forgot#because she doesn't do or contribute anything interesting#ok i'm stopping here. overwatch's story is such an interesting narrative mess i could go on for hours#i dunno how you come up with such incredible character designs and give them such an unincredible story#it's also so so so interesting seeing the conflicting takes on characters the writers have#mercy in gameplay and voicelines is peppy and cheerful and optimistic#but mercy in the storymode journal logs is tired. jaded. a total shut in who forgets to leave her room and social#and YES! THAT'S WHAT I WANT!!! THAT'S MERCY TO ME!!! THE DOCTOR WHO FORGETS TO TAKE CARE OF HERSELF#ask me#anon

In case you missed - GREAT Neopets News!
I didn't see anybody talking about the news here, so I thought that I could share a summary.
The Neopets Team announced today that they're under new management. They're no longer affiliated with Jumpstart (which announced their closure back in June) or their parent company NetDragon.
In their blog post in the official Neopets Medium page, they confirm that they are now an independent company:
(Dominc Law, worked for NetDragon and was an old school Neopets player. He put together a team to work on saving the brand.)
Also in that blog post the team talks about how they are well aware of the problems the site has been through in the last decade, they acknowledge the lack of resources which resulted in the Neopets website being left broken.
Going ahead, they are going to focus on community requests, such as speeding up the process of Flash Games conversion, clearing up the page conversion backlog, bug fixes, mobile compatibility issues and improving customer support.
Most importantly, in my opinion, they clear up that they WILL NOT go forward with any Metaverse bullshit, and will instead work on creating a game that feels like Neopets:
At this point, they have secured $4M in funding from various (unnamed) investors with additional funding from the management buyout. For the first time in forever, it looks like TNT has the resources they need to move the brand forward. In the blog post, they mention they have already hired developers and artists to work on the fixes the site needs.
From what it looks like, the game will be a mobile social life-simulation, parallel to the current website. We don’t have to worry that neopets.com will be replaced by a mobile app.
As of now, they have announced:
A brand new plot, scheduled for early 2024
A 2 million(!) NeoCash giveaway
More transparency with monthly updates from the team, scheduled AMAs
Neopets will be under the control of a new, unified entity: World of Neopia, Inc - the website will remain the same (neopets.com)
A Brand Ambassador Program
No longer going forward with NFT/Metaverse stuff
At the end, they published a FAQ with some answers that I found to be good and very interesting:
You can read the entire blog post here.
Or watch the YouTube announcement (which is way shorter):

#neopets#putting my journo degree to a good use i think#i am in no way affiliated with TNT or jumpstart or netdragon etc#i'm just really really happy#things look bright for once and i'd like to share the news#i know some people might be skeptical but i'd like to be optimistic for once and trust the team#most of them nowadays are old players if i'm not mistaken#i don't think they like to see the website in shambles as it was#also really goddamn glad they're moving away from crypto shit#i appreciate the transparency#also be nice to me i'm shy#Youtube#i admit i got a little lazy by the end#nostalgia#y2k nostalgia#kidcore#will these tags even show up

loving whispers as a skill makes me feel insane. you're on death's door. im speaking into your ear. i love you. i love you. i love you. we will make it out of this. the gods have nothing on how I feel for you. and love stitches wounds back together, and love delivers us from the brink.
#least perverse sylvian skill#i know this is a very optimistic perspective of it especially considering its sylvian but idk. I choose to believe what makes me happy#like yes the funger horrors are real but so are the bonds#fear and hunger

wanted to draw my interpretation of future leo's Whole Deal and ended up with this
#tmnt#rottmnt#tmnt leo#hamato leonardo#future leo#my turtle art#future leo realizing that the life in the apocalypse is the only one most of their younger kids survivors know and that in order for them#to build towards a better future they have to know what happiness and peace- even in small doses- looks like. and he can't give up or#live without regard for his own life because people are looking up to him as their example: oh god. oh god oh god anyways lets karaoke!!#based directly off the classic images#'optimistic nihilism' wasnt exactly the phrase i was looking for but. ah well.

tfw when you write an entire novel with two protagonists that spent the entire plot getting closer to each other, becoming best friends and eventually both of them deciding they would rather die than allow the other to not live a long, fulfilling life, their friendship carrying most of the emotional weight of the entire plot and the emotional climax being one of them sacrificing his life so the other can live and then the other crossing literal universes to find him, a tearful smile in his face as he confesses how much he missed him. which is the scene you wanted to write and show the most because, again, this is the pay off to the slowburn you've been writing in the entire novel and what everything has been building up to since the very first chapter. and then you end the novel by having them share a smile, finally confident they'll be able to have a happy future.
but you also just gotta have one of them marry offscreen because everyone knows you can't be happy if you're not in a het marriage with kids lmao it's whatever it's okay i'm fiNE-
#i talk a lot <3#the greatest estate developer#lloyd frontera#this post was going to be so much more bitter this is me being nice akjshdkahdk#i just....... i'm sad alsjdsjkal#and i don't think i'm wrong to be. like i'm not disapointed bc i don't actually expected lloyd and javier to be together#i'm not that optimistic lmao#but i did have the hope tged would have no romance#because lloyd and javier were already doing so much in the emotional and relationship development front of the plot#that adding romance just feels. awkward. like an aside. an add-on that affects none of the plot and is just there to make sure#no one accidentally gets confused and think those two are in love#and guess what! most of the romance does happen in literal side stories! literally an add-on that does nothing for the plot! i hate it!#it's the heteronormativity and amatonormativity of it all :/#do i think it would've been cool for llojavi to be canon? absolutely! do i think it was necessary for the plot? nope!#they were already perfect the way they are! their friendship is the core of the entire plot and their relationship to each other#is what ultimately moves much of the plot in the latter half!#which is the way relationships should work in fiction! not just have them for the sake of having them!#lloyd didn't need a romantic subplot because the plot was already working perfectly without it!#also what's the point of having a character constantly think about what their idea of 'happy life' is if you're not going to challenge it#it's about the hero's journey of it all!!!#i have things to say dang it!#javier asrahan#tged

For a moment I thought Doumeki was going to mention that Kohane was worried about Watanuki and asked Doumeki to look after him - but instead he pivots to the thing I had completely forgotten about and mentions the balloon.
How long ago was the balloon. Forever ago. It was from before Watanuki fell out the window.
NO WAIT I WILL FIND OUT. PLEASE HOLD.
Balloon appeared in Chapter 50, which I seem to have read in 2017, and Watanuki gives it to Kohane in Chapter 58. So this balloon is seven years old for me. This balloon is the age of a small child.
I suppose it’s not as extreme if you go by publishing date. Volume 8 was published in Feb 2006 and Volume 14 was Feb 2009. But that’s still three years!
Clamp really playing the long game here as if we would expect anything else at this point.
#Of COURSE Clamp will introduce a small plot element#That will come up again years and years later#And still be important#It’s the Clamp way#I only can’t tell if this scene is a reminder of where the Balloon is for future reference#Or a way of writing the Balloon out of the narrative#Which is pretty gracious of them to do considering I didnt remember it at all#Not liveblogging the reservoir chronicle#xxxholic#xxxholic 83#Watanuki#Doumeki#Kohane#Also like the Unspoken sadness behind the fact that like#Kohane's mother said nothing at all when she finally allowed her to go#She didn't Approve as much as she finally admitted defeat#and couldn't even admit that she is starting to realise she is not good for her daughter#And so silently watching her go was the nicest thing she could manage#The SADNESS around all of that and Watanuki is still optimistic#The narrative itself is kind here in a way hints that maybe it really will turn out alright#After lots of work and healing#Which is not always the case in real life#But Kohane DOES deserve a happy resolution and also anything she ever wants#so I support it

personal opinion warning i don't think ragatha is the ""mom friend"" of the circus i think she just has some extremely dogshit coping mechanisms for being trapped there. tags rant go !
#like no shade to those who call her that#i just#gooseworx had said some funny things abt her before#“wishful thinking” abt an unabstracted kaufmo#what she said to pomni not being entirely true#pretty much being only for deescalation#she is so dealing with this by putting on a happy face all the time#hell glitch has described her as being “the happiest little optimist” and that “she's fine! see shes smiling!"#all im saying is#she is sooo coping by putting on a constant happy face#& putting others before her#which may involve some bullshitting at the price of her own welfare#she's not your “mom friend girlboss” she is FUCKED UP and is COPING with that fucked up-ness in a shitty way!#she would cry if she was only known as the “mom friend” !#sorry im someone who's been fixated since january and i have some Opinions on these characters#the amazing digital circus#tadc#flippy.txt

The fact that I've listened to Euclid HUNDREDS of times but it can still randomly hit just right and make me cry tho
#its such a gut punch /pos after the absolute journey of the rest of the album and its so pretty#its so optimistic despite some of the dark lyrics in it and it just resonates with me so much#it really feels like the musical equivalent of that point in recovery where you go 'FUCK IT IM GONNA AT LEAST *TRY* TO BE HAPPY'#and that's such a huge step when you've been that low and don't feel like you deserve it#it makes me so emotional bc ive been there and I know how much that step means#that song is probably the entire reason that one of our alters resurfaced as Vessel#sleep token#sleep token tmbte

i think men should be banned from creating magical girl series. especially """""dark and subversive"""" magical girl series. just fundamentally i don't think they respect the genre enough to be subverting it or really going anywhere near it
#shut up boo#i like pmmm for the toxic yuri but i also very hate it for what it did to the genre#edgy magical girl things have the same vibe to me as those old viral drawings of disney princesses like 'after the movie' or whatever#like it had ariel being caught in a fishing net and like snow white being assaulted by the dwarfs idk i only remember ariel tbh#just like. shit made by annoying people (men) who think themselves brilliant and innovative for asking the bold question of#'what if OPTIMISTIC thing... was CYNICAL instead???'#'WHAT IF HAPPY PINK THING MADE FOR GIRL WAS EDGY AND DARK AND MANLY AND NOW I CAN LOOK AT IT WITHOUT MY DICK FALLING OFF'

i have not even begun to process how lavinia is feeling and instead i am thinking about hilda and alistair going to weisshaupt after adamant and hilda saying they're just gonna stay for a bit before heading out to work with the inquisition and then it's been a year and then two years and beth and nathaniel are back at vigil's keep but hilda can't bring herself to go back when the whole order is at best a laughingstock and at worst an enemy in ferelden and her and alistair build a home in weisshaupt that neither of them really want and. Augh.
#hilda is a very. i wouldn't say happy. but she is very optimistic.#generally. but then there are times when things happen that make her fall into SERIOUS serious depression#like vigil's keep/amaranthine and then not finding a cure for the calling and then what happened#with erimond#she is so humiliated. and totally loses herself and walks around weisshaupt like a shell of her former self#she goes on long pilgrimages to our lady of the anderfels without telling alistair lol just fully#goes out in the middle of the night and leaves a note but hidden in his pockets somewhere#he paces grooves into the floor of their temporary room in weisshaupt while he waits for her to come back#and alistair meanwhile who also feels humiliated about the order also feels righteous and regains#a lot of personal street cred after what happened. and people start to acknowledge him#REALLY acknowledge him. for his part in the fifth blight. and how much of a hero he is#but at the cost of his wife disappearing into herself. so it's not even a win.#i know lancit and remi are the griffon's trainers but atp the griffons are still 10 years old - if not more?#i think valya found them in 9:40 or 41 so they're like 11-12?#hilda was there for a bit of their growing up and totally claimed one#and she won't say it's because she knows ser pounce a lot and lady rarely pounces#and rooney and all the other cats at vigil's keep are... either dead or living in the wild#after all the fereldan wardens abandoned it and she was off on the calling#:|#just made myself sad and pissed myself off.#wait wtf why DID I WRITE THIS POST I'M GOING TO PASS AWAY....................#oc: hilda#pairing: hilda x alistair#datv spoilers#maia.txt
