How it feels to see people actually defending the unlawful arrest of Not My King protesters and act like they shouldn’t have disrupted such a important event like the coronation:

It turns out the most fun way to engage with Barchester Towers is to map the characters on to other characters/people from the future that Trollope couldn't have known about.
Dr. Grantley = Squidward (ambitious, a bit pretentious/likes the finer things in life, tries for dignity but is easily angered)
Mr. Harding = Winnie the Pooh (sweet and small and simple and friendly and likes his little songs)
Mrs. Proudie = Mrs. Oleson (very opinionated domineering wife)
Mr. Slope = Rasputin (oily guy who uses spirituality to prey upon women and gain power)
#books#barchester towers#anthony trollope#i can't explain the delight of the sitcommy scene where grantley and harding have just faced the other two#and come away overwhelmed by the horribleness#and grantley's all 'this is war. i am making plans. we have to destroy these people before they destroy us.'#and mr. harding's just 'i didn't like him very much.'#the comparisons are making it easier for me to figure out how trollope's pulling this off#like squidward's annoying and not a terribly good person#but he's nothing compared to rasputin so of course i wind up on his side when this new guy's on the scene#also mr. harding is becoming very beloved#the scene where it mentions that his weakness is doubting himself#so after slope gives his speech condemning music and ritual as empty outward show#and poor mr. harding who loves his music is like 'was i wrong to chant the litany all these years?'#i'm like 'first off. relatable.'#and second i want to give that man a hug and some cookies#i will come and listen to your beautiful choir mr. harding!#in this list i feel like i should have a comparison character for dr. proudie#he's not nice and mild and sarcastic like mr. oleson#mr. collins came to mind but that implies a verboseness and an over-the-top level of bootlicking that's not present here#like you've just got a guy who's willing to go along with the people around him#as long as it helps his ambition he's glad to let himself be used#there's got to be a decent comparison but i can't think of who

I can fix him*
*bad writing, underutilized gameplay mechanics, characters with unfulfilled potential, funded by bootlickers
#ra speaks#personal#sorry I made dr phone calls and have like. ten minutes til I gotta get ready for first class of the semester. let me have this.#I think I should get every COD game ever for free. it’s MY tax dollars at work after all (actually anything produced w us military funding#should be free I think I can trap even my bootlicker tax hating dad into getting onboard w this one)#anyways. ghosts was…decent. but jfc if you give me a silent protag I expect SOME self awareness in the writing.#why are characters calling to him on comms when they know he won’t respond? why doesn’t he have an AAC device or something more futuristic?#I’m just saying if you explicitly limit a character you need to respect those limits in te writing. it’s not that hard.#like non of the characters even acknowledge that Logan never talks. esp weird when he first meets the ghosts#also. obv not a big fan of ‘all of South America has United into evil space terrorists’ but it was 2013 so ¯\ _(ツ)_/¯#wish we got to see some SDC civis y’know? get a bear on the average attitudes abt the whole. invading the US thing.#(jfc do not get me started on The Wall like this is a 2016 trump voter’s power fantasy)#also Riley was such an interesting mechanic why couldn’t they have at least substituted him w drones or something on the other missions??#you get him for like. two missions. and then he gets shot and you have to protect him (gosh I actually loved that section)#just. it was clear Logan was The Dog Guy with an aptitude for tech. honestly Hesh felt more like the MC than Logan.#and while Logan doesn’t have a ton of personality we can glean as a result of non speaking + ZERO communication at all ever#seriously he doesn’t even like. wave or give thumbs up to people wtf dude do ppl just assume he’s psychic or something???#I do LOVE the few scenes we get with him acting outside of player control/where he actually has agency (Elias’ death. the final cutscene)#and like it’s not much but it’s enough that I WANT to see what happens next#but alas. a decade old game without a true sequel (I think??? haven’t actually looked into it.)#my brother is making fun of me for being a COD gamer now like boy. I have no defense pls be nice to me T-T

if i have to see one more post about disney from people who don't work here or at least live in the area i'm gonna lose it
#saw a post that was talking about how disney doesn't actually care about queer people#and while like. yeah. i mean. i guess sorta that's true? but also they do pay for trans healthcare#for employees. btw. no other employer i've ever had has explicitly covered that in my insurance#also working here has EASILY been the job where i feel the most comfortable being trans since i came out#and where i get misgendered the least. it still happens and it's been an issue but like#overall it's better here. disney also lets me use my preferred name on everything#universal did not do that btw at universal i was forced to display my deadname to everyone at my location#so it's not as black and white as 'disney hates queer people' and i'm not trying to be a bootlicker i'm just stating these facts#that people probably don't know? at least people don't seem to know this?#but it's easily the most supportive work environment i've ever been in#and yeah a LOT of that depends on location and leadership and other things. i have trans coworkers who have struggled more than i have#but like. overall. i don't think people realize that it's actually a pretty halfway decent place to work#and yeah there's some HUGE issues but it's an oversimplification to say that it's just The worst and should be burned down etc.#and it's like yeah i KNOW it's the bare minimum but it's still more than i've gotten anywhere else i've worked#and yes a lot of it is also due to the union's hard work here and not the company itself but still#the fact that the people making posts like that clearly do not actually live here or know anything about how things work here#i'm just like. please shut up you don't even know what you're talking about#this post i saw earlier had people in the replies STILL spouting the 'disney will just pack up and leave lol and then where will the florid#economy be?' and they sound so fucking stupid like what the everloving fuck do you mean move somewhere else#people think it's a little theme park as if it's not the literal size of san francisco???#anyway i'm just in general begging people online to shut up about things they don't know shit about.#like. you don't have to have an opinion on everything. you can just. shut up.#anyway that's my ranty tags post for the day bye#win rambles

A third character from the labs, Orta's direct superior Dr Monreau, and the biggest Cheyen simp to have ever existed. He is turning into a turkey in a long-term bizarre experiment, and Cheyen doesn't even consistently remember his name

Something weirdly specific for at least some of us, that we've had in mind for awhile; unfortunately this was the closest we could get with a picrew tbh.

× × × || × × × || × × ×
Like, fortunately for us; while we have some things that irk us with this one, but this hits pretty close in a metaphorical sense at least for the people we're thinking of. Unfortunately for us, some of those are more obvious than others so we hesitated on weather we needed to share this or not LOL.
#stimboard#cn // highly personal#highly personal#GOD THAT PINK IN THE BACKGROUND. SO THREATENING.#THAT “SHE KNOWS” THING A MONTH BACK IN THE GAME SESSION. // OC-related tangent in the tags incoming#(<- hits differently in some situations)#(<- *stares at the plural OCs who we made an entire past for.*)#(<- *stares at the fact their whole thing is. dysphoria made them plural. and THEN they became functionally immortal.*)#(<- you don't skip town for no reason. they lived in a generation where being both would throw them in The Loony Bin)#(<- but only the QUEERNESS became more acceptable later on.)#(<- these bozos are a mirror to our own life and frustration. and that realistically. people are starting to accept endogenics to a degree.#(<- but the world we want and how endos are treated is NOT going to happen next yer. it MIGHT happen in like 20 years.)#(<- “she knows” has been and always will be our greatest fear and pushing through that is HARD.)#(<- So what would it look like INSTEAD to be hiding under queerness. which is still stigmatized as hell)#(<- but you can AT LEAST find a margin of community somewhere that isn't full of abusers and bootlickers/idenity-medicalists for that ID)#NONE OF THIS IS NEGATIVE we're actually kind of glad the GM saw the full implications of that even implicitly -#- getting the shivers just remembering that. But also it's interesting to implement that onto their younger singletsona lmao.#WERE SO PISSED THO THAT WE COULDNT FIND A GREYSCALE MASK THAT WASNT. HORROR OR PARTY. THESE FUCKERS ARE NOT VILLAINS YNKOW.#like how the fuck do we have a hoard of gifs in our tumblr likes and found NOTHING for that specifically lolsob?#yes these ARE the same two chucklefucks we blabbed on and on about for like a week on our main account.#but its their “singletsona”. kind of. kind of sort of. we have wholeass ideas on this narratively.#like we just need to WRITE as in actually write but the issue is every time we do we hit A Wall(tm)#but yeah. anyways. we have headmates playing a TTRPG and we may have projected our frustrations onto two OCs that we don't even play. 😭😭😭

the new ep really reminded me of my disappointment of how completely chill hawks is with endeavour abusing his family. him discovering his personal hero was abusive in the exact same way his father was should be gut wrenching, a betrayal but he doesn’t react to it in anyway other than “i’m sure things are different now”. if they made him destroyed and angry and carried that through the villain hunt arc, it would just bolster the tension and support the distrust society has for heroes and the need to put that aside anyway in the face of a greater enemy
#apart from his reaction with nagent it feels like we havnt seen hawks’ actual personality#or him having any real emotional reaction to anything#oh yeah my mum betrayed me to villains ans it nearly got me killed but bc the government entity that bought me at 7 yrs old told me#to forget my old life it doesnt bother me#yeah the guy ive looked up to my entire life that was literally the only bright point in my incredibly abusive childhood turned out to also#be extremely abusive towards his family up to LAST YEAR but i think hes different now so it doesnt bother me#i get that having a subplot of him being pissed at endeavour and having to be near him anyway couldve made the arc a but messy#especially with how badly paced it is#but imagine if it was actually spread out nicely#hawks has the basis of an interesting character but so much of him is fanon interpretation#his attitude with the commission is so lacklustre#hes totally fine with everything theyve done to him and doesnt see anything wrong with it or them#it takes a nuanced story of a minor groomed by the government to be a killer and turns him into a bootlicker#even his stuff with twice which shouldve knocked him on his ass doesnt hit bc he just brushes passed his realisation#the entire endeavour redemption arc annoys me bc he gets it way too easily and doesnt face consequences#he still has hawks looking at him like the sun shines out his ass#he foisters his responsibility to take down dabi the monster he created onto his youngest child bc its too hard for him#but thats besides the point#hawks has so much potential but like pretty much everyone its just not explored enough#go beyond plus ultra#coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt#bnha#hawks#endeavour#enji todoroki

maybe im somewhat blackpilled wrt work but its so wild how mediocre people are at their workplaces. im not expecting anyone to always give 100% to work of all things thatd be ridiculous but it sometimes genuinely feels like absolute mediocrity or even total underperformance is the norm and nobody cares or does anything abt it. hate that. i can be all like ahh yes bestie i understand work sucks etc etc but eventually competent people end up eating the shit mediocre people produce and its genuinely infuriating.

#a lot of cops come in to get their hair cut at work#i dont have a story or anything#i just fucking hate having to cut their hair#and they like come in during their shifts somehow?#at least i hope they are because the alternative is that theyre walzting into our salon in their off hours still playing dress up#but they wear those bulky ass vests that make it hard for them to sit back in the chair so its harder for me to reach#so now the cops are inconveniencing me personally#and i live in a very blue lives matter type area so the rest of my coworkers are all bootlickers#anyway i just try to avoid talking about their jobs#which is difficult cause thats like my number one time killer for conversation#i feel kinda bad because like#im bad at my job in the sense that i dont like talking to people#but talking gets me better tips so#my like number one thing is i ask them what they do for work#and as long as they dont seem to actively hate their job i can start asking them a bunch of questions#and they spend most of the time explaining what they do#and as soon as they leave my chair i forget everything#ive had multiple people explain the intricacies of airplaine engineering#(cause i live close to a major beoing plant)#and i sit there and ask every single one shit like 'oh so did you have to go to school for that?'#'is there a lot of math involved in that?'#shit like that. i dont remember their answers so it doesn't matter#idk why im rambling anyway fuck cops get out me chair lest i shave you bald#edit: just realized i spelled it beoing which is a much better name imo

“I’ll just google some info on this archangel to get their vibe for a design down-wikipedia should be enough for rough info as I don’t really wanna go deep/detailed into any of...that”
Wikipedia “and then God burned every angel who didn’t fully like him making humans, leaving only Michael and Gabriel alive, and Raphael seeing that warned his army to just say what a FANTASTIC idea making humans is because God will just do whatever he wants anyway and he really doesn’t want to see them burn-oh and God renamed him to Raphael only after that, his name was different before that”
Me imagining God just burning what basically amounts to what I had assumed be his first kids basically
like on one hand: thanks for defending our existence on the other HOLY SHIT WHATTHEFUCK OH WE ARE SO FUCKED WE’RE ALL GOING TO DIE IN HELLFIRE-THIS IS WHY HELL EXISTS IN THE FIRST PLACE, GOD JUST WANTS TO SEE EVERYONE HE MADE BURN LIKE HE *JUST* CAST TRUTH OUT FOR WARNING EVERYONE THAT HUMANS CAN LIE AND THEN KILLED THE REST WHATTHEFUCK
#txts#this is under post-biblical judaism#i havent even looked at christianity notes yet but like#damn judaism whatthefuck is happening up there#imagine your father throwing your siblings into the oven because they didn't think getting a rabid rat into the family was a too great idea#or hell even just a dog#imagine your dad says the dog is now the best family member of all time cant do wrong#and if you mention that he might poop on the carpet bc he's still a puppy#you get thrown into fire#well down to earth and your other siblings who agreed with you get thrown into fire#love me some gods doing fucked up shit#but it hits extra hard when you grew up w/ catholic studies#telling you god is gracious and good#and while i never rly cared bc i thought it was stupid that you'd go to hell for human mistakes#which god allowed btw#this is just extra hilarious in a way#yeah lemme just bootlick the fuck outta god to not get burned by him#not lucifer not satan not anyone downstairs#nope big G himself just being like#'i have a new petproject i will devote all my attention to-feel free to tell me your opinion'#'btw if you say anything negative you'll die by burning alive xoxo'#i PLANNED on making the story more neutral on that aspect like the rest even tho this one is set in our world#but i also....dont wanna ignore that bc#its too fucking spicy to consider reading more into#Gods never get a purely good view in my stories-at best they are writers#making stories and characters to play around w/ and show the good and the ugly#but never saviours of humanity or smth#but thats w/ my own oc's and not irl inspired oc's lol

I don't get how the Zelda games are supposed to be good.
Or how they "inspired a genre"???
They were fairly basic "Damsel in Distress male hero saves Princess from evil foreigner" kinda games. Mario already did that.
And then it turned into just slightly above average open world games with some traversal mechanics.
But how is that good? Is that all that's needed to be good these days? Not even an attempt at character writing really, I sure haven't seen anything about that in all these years and well, you do play a mute that doesn't even have gender selection. Something Pokemon did literal decades ago because they realised "Oh hey, you're playing a mute. Why not let people pick which sprite they prefer, not like we need to pay for voice actors and it makes much effort, really".
But then people would get to choose between normal and Linkle and Zeld or something that sounds like a Chinese knockoff, and people would realise just how much they don't give a shit because hey, this is still just a corporation. They don't care about you. There isn't any soul here. It's all just "straight guy saves girl from evil guy, maybe has some character simp for the characterless mute".
I just don't get it.
