i just saw a video about a guy reading xiv reddit posts and in general i agreed with most of the things he said because to most of them that people should be chill.

But he also said that people that do not do ultimate probably won't go out of their way to learn their jobs and i'm like, wha.

could not be me, i have anxiety disorder

One of the strongest points of Mass Effect, if not the strongest, is just how well written the characters are. From Shepard, to the squad, to the side characters like Anderson and Bakara, to barely-there NPCs like Ereba and Charr the lovers, Etarn Tiro the enthusiastic turian merchant, Kargesh the krogan who wanted a fish, Lia'Vael, the quarian who gets falsely accused of theft, and the Salarian who wants to buy a memento to his asari lover to remember him by once he's dead.

I feel like so many of them are memorable, and they all serve a purpose to the overall world building. The krogan show that they are not the violent thugs the galaxy has made them out to be. The salarian shows the struggle born out of building relationships with people of a species with a life expectancy so beyond your own. Lia'Vael illustrates what Tali says about the quarians being treated like second class citizens. Those small little side quests have a meaning and a purpose, it doesnt feel like they are Just There, and they add more to the lore of them game to those who care about that stuff.

Still thinking about that CL16 +TMA crossover thing (spurred by @blinkycravesviolence's post and the discussion that happened on the discord 💥💥💥)

sometimes i think i have a coherent thought about how in transmigration/isekai stories written by men the protagonist imposes themselves upon the world without caring much about social convention while in transmigration/isekai stuff written by women the protagonist tries their hardest to fit in and not draw unnecessary attention or do something out of character or weird, especially in danmei transmigration stuff....

and then i see shibuya yuuri harajuku furi in my peripheral squaring up against everyone and making baseball the national sport. the most shonen protagonist trapped in a bl harem.

disney fairies is so interesting as a franchise to me, an aromantic adult, because they are all fully grown (?) fully formed adult beings with jobs but only like five or six fairies even seem to experience romantic attraction. in my mind they’re all aro. talents are more important than crushes my friends!

I thought my friend was like 22-23 GIRL he’s 26 🤦 how was I supposed to know

i need to start hating other characters besides just scott apparently. does anyone have suggestions

[teh-nos]

...actually it's kind of effed up that the early MCU cared so little about women that Loki has no bio mother (and nobody ever even asks the question). yes, yes, i see the daddy issues, i am very invested in how this specific male character has daddy issues (lying, btw), but like. they literally just forgot mothers exist???

On that note, while I logically believe Edd's increasing sensitivity to hygiene in the show was a result of changing intentions in the writing room. I like to see it as influenced by the onset of his OCD.

AAAAAAAACKKK, OKAY. First, I wanna say

If I was a more speedy artist, I might have... actually done something. But fear not. I did do something! :D And I posted it today. Let's uh. Never mind the fact that I forgot AO3 deletes drafts a month in and I had a panic attack last night because it... deletes in like, 5 days. Anyway-

@honeybubbletea33 Do you uh. Remember... That picture you did that inspired me so much, I told myself I wouldn't make a fic of it, but then I actually started writing it??

Well, it's uh. D o n e. Um. Have fun, I suppose, here is the cursed creation https://archiveofourown.org/works/54641671

I am in despair, truly.

hmmm ok realizing my last post (not the reblog the one before that) probably came off uhh. not the way i intended it. i didnt mean it in like. an im hopeless & everything is pointless way i meant like. i think instead of trying to Fix all the shit going on in my brain i gotta just. work with it. & just like. accept that yeah some shit is gonna be hard for me. like. forever. maybe most people can figure out ways around it. maybe im just not one of those people. maybe ill never be able to function "normally". & like. it sucks. that what should be easy isnt. what should come naturally doesnt. & trying to like... brute force my brain into Working That Way just... doesnt work. so like. its always going to be hard. its never going to go away. the things that are supposed to make it easier are just as hard for me as the things theyre supposed to help with. its always going to be like this. but like. what other choice do i have?

(mgv) john house was an alpha, blythe was a beta. house presenting as an omega was another layer of disappointment to john, who didn't bother learning to sympathize with his son. this also led to a small amount of ire from house that he still can't quite shake towards his mother for not understanding how his problems aren't the same as john's. greg knows it's childish and petty, but he's a bitter man, sue him.

i read translation state over the weekend (it was very good) and it made me want to reread provenance because i remember provenance being astoundingly bad and i want to see if that was because my brain was weird or it was just sort of unfortunately bad
