Ok final thought for the night and then I’m done being annoying.
My crossover is Princess Tutu: the Thing. Need u to imagine the opening scene where the dog is running while they all shoot at it but it’s just a little duck waddling through the snow miraculously dodging bullets
#ummmm so this assumes Duck is already dead but I need her in that bunker#maybe it’s a different duck#maybe they keep ducks#fakir would not do well in the thing#he would crack under paranoia#maybe kill someone in the process#sorry I’m going to come back tomorrow with princess tutu characters in a classic horror movie setting#im thinking like Halloween adjacent but I don’t like Halloween#princess tutu but it’s a slasher and raven mytho’s like I’m gonna getcha I’m gonna getcha#lea talks

DPxDC Prompt #8
Danny was practicing shapeshifting with Amorpho when he felt the tug of a summoning and heard the distant words drifting into his mind.
Normally Danny would just ignore it. Or if it seems like this was a group that needed some sense scared into them, he'd shift into his Horror form and terrify them into never pulling this shit again. But then he heard them mention live sacrifices, and Danny just had to step in before that happened. So he let the summoning pull him on through, briefly forgetting he was shapeshifted into a... less than ideal form.
Danny lands in the circle right on top of one of the intended sacrifices, a group of people in weird outfits and, is that guy green? Irrelevant. Immediately Danny on knows something is very wrong. His powers feel muted and far away. His form suddenly feels, locked somehow.
He casts his gaze across the summoning circle and, to his horror, recognizes the binding ritual. These cultists wanted to bind and seal him in one of these mortal's bodies after they were sacrificed. But they fucked up the spell. Or maybe Danny fucked it up by coming in too soon? Irrelevant again.
What matters is the spell went sideways. Instead of locking Danny into one of the sacrifice's bodies, it locked him into his own form while pulling most of his abilities just out of reach. Now he's here. In the shape of- He's stuck as-
"Dude, is that a pigeon? Did the Ghost King, like, send you to voicemail?"
#DPxDC Prompt#DPxDC#technically#DPxTeen Titans#The tv show version#With Robin Starfire Cyborg Raven and Beast Boy#I've seen a lot of Danny shapeshifted as different animals prompts#Cat bat duck goose dragon raccoon seal#Don't think I've seen pigeon though#And I got the line 'Did the Ghost King send you to voicemail?' about Pigeon!Danny showing up in the Ghost King's summoning#And I just had to throw that out here#Also Danny is supposed to look like a normal pigeon here#Maybe some slightly odd coloration#But part of the shapeshifting practice was learning how to shift into something that would pass for normal in the Mortal Realms

GIF REQUEST MEME: @nerdalmighty asked: ducktales + favorite familial relationship
Donald and Huey, Dewey, & Louie "Donald's tendency to lash out was wildly unfocused, until you kids came along. He came to me wanting to be the best parent he could, so we channeled that anger into protective instincts. Every outburst is Donald wanting to protect his family. He loves you so much, the thought of anything bad happening to you INFURIATES HIM!"
#ducktales#disney#disneyedit#ducktalesedit#usereasthigh#ducktales 2017#animationedit#donald duck#huey duck#dewey duck#louie duck#my edits#my gifs#ty for being patient while i worked on this!! i hope it doesn't look terrible lol#i wanted to try some different stuff with it#also maybe this is a bit of an obvious choice hehe#but dt17 did SUCH great things with these characters and their relationship#i love them so much

How can I carefully shape and carve tiny duck of clay and yet struggle to eat soup because my spoon shakes. Be consistent, hands.
#to be fair I am very slow and focused when I craft and often hold my breath for especially fine details#and spoon holding muscles are different.#but like. cmon man.#I drop my pills all the time because my fingers twitch#maybe they should be little duck shaped and I'd hold them easier. smh

You know something? Whenever a genuinely good piece of media takes a polytheistic or non-Christian religion as an allegory criticizing Christianity or just religion/the worship of god(s) in general, I feel such a strong urge to both nod in fascination because I see their point of recontextualizing and deconstruction but also to roll my eyes so hard because most of the time they're just going "religion bad. Here's nuance - actually never mind. Religion bad, period."
Like I'm far, far from a pantheist or polytheist but do people understand that those gods were simply forces of personified nature? Their whole thing was that they mimicked humanity and human relationships but, in the end, were basically nature. And the, well, nature of nature is that it's unfair, takes you unawares, sometimes can be benevolent, but is always unpredictable. It can be too cruel for a small mistake or you can be lucky and escape punishment in general. Myths and legends were all about their inhumanity, not their imperfect and wretched humanity (because they were gods, duh).
Like man, whenever I see a piece of media raging about religion like. I get it. But not only does it basically erase and invalidate the experiences of half or more than half of the world who are literally suffering from their religion, I can't help but notice some kind of weird trend. Like...do people now happily cast the gods as Evil and needing to be put down or eradicated because of how industrialization was basically man conquering nature? They demand those higher powers see things from their perspective and from an individually personal point of view (all the while ignoring that Christianity literally did that), blame gods for suffering and thus decry them but ignore the fact that even without gods, the same suffering would probably still happen. Always about "gods should be more human" but only in the good ways because people have already humanized the gods too much, just as vile ones, rather than the personification of nature they were meant to be.
#you want to know something?#there is a way to critique the institutions arising from religion without basically stepping on those suffering for their religion#there IS a nuanced way to go about it without making every religion some derivative of corruptes christianity#and might i also add that people hated corrupted christianity so much protestantism was born?#don't mind me. I'm actually not salty. just baffled as always#because i know personal experiences hit harder than experiences of others#but the thing is when you're trying to validate your personal opinions and make them a general one#you really shouldn't ignore the voices of those who think different from you. and no that 'different' isn't the people who hurt you#like yeah you are hurt and hateful and that's valid but now you're making it everyone's problem#and failing to see how it might hurt other marginalized groups wayyyy more#so maybe I'm a bit salty. at the using every religion as an allegory for why we should hate Christianity and also religion#and at the not even coming from a basis of understanding historical perspectives on those Other Religions#lemon duck quacks#literary lemonade#discussions and discourse

The BIG season 3 clue in the title sequence
Hey so remember this?
There are several of the little marching characters in the title sequence who are holding signs about The Second Coming etc... but then... there's a BIG one folks... have you spotted it?
Don't be distracted by the falling hearts and A&C sitting on the roof.
It's the plane!
Thy Kingdom Airways. As in Thy Kingdom Come... Jesus is on that plane you guys. The plot for Season 3 is literally already in motion while we are over here getting razzle dazzled and gutted by romance.
#maybe i'm the only one who didn't figure this out until now#if so oh well#it's still cool#i do think there is some commentary here to be made about this ENTIRE season being a distraction#magician's patter if you will#but that is probably a different post#good omens#good omens title sequence#good omens 2#good omens s2#good omens 3#good omens s3#good omens spoilers#go s2 spoilers#a duck talks

I got the Epic Mickey games on ebay for cheap and no one told me it had a morality system that changes the ending so it looks like I pulled a “killing Toriel your first run because you didn’t realize you could save her” on the first boss and can now hold more Toon-killing paint thinner 🥲👍
#giving the mouse a kill count this run I guess!#tempted to restart it though#i also bought the collectors edition guides with the art so maybe I’ll wait til they get here and use a different save for pure morally good#epic mickey#ducks txt

thinking about Elyss's dad reading her the ugly duckling when she was a little girl and I'm torn between the story resonating with her, for obvious reasons, or the story distressing her intensely because if the ugly duckling was never a duck to begin with then it will never fit in with its duck family, it will never have a place among other ducks, it will always be an outsider in the only home it's ever known
#maybe both. maybe a little of both.#she already knows she's not fully human and understands a little of why by the time her parents meet and fall in love#so I can see 'just because you're different doesn't mean something is wrong with you' not landing AS hard as carrick probably hoped#what good is it to be a beautiful swan when everyone you've ever loved or known or even just seen in passing is a duck?#when no one else seems to have even heard of swans?#I mean to be fair it's not for nothing! elyss didn't learn about genasi until she was around twelve#so I think an ugly duckling type parable does touch on a hope that she's not a freak or a mistake#but that maybe there ARE others like her somewhere out in the world#a hope that wouldn't be validated for several more years#I dunno. rotating it in my mind.#my OCs#elyss

#so that dotd rewrite is out and i have some thoughts on it but i wouldn't know where to put them.. maybe in here bc i don't actually feel -#- like making a whole ass text post. this is coming from me as criticism and not hate.. just some crit from one fan to another if you get m#SPOILERS AHEAD >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>#first off props to the team because this was obv a labor of love - 4 and a half years to make a feature long fan movie is hard work#and the animated stuff was a really nice touch and very commendable - you don't see them too often in big fanworks#in terms of the story well.. there are some things i like and some things that i don't (personally) again no hate#i'm aware this is a rewrite and boy howdy it IS a rewrite - though i am a bit sad that percy doesn't end up being the protagonist and it's#- thomas that has to play hero again.. like i kinda get it but what made the original dotd stand out was that percy was given the spotlight#so i spent an ungodly amount of time wondering when percy was gonna take charge or step into the main story to resolve the problem.. sigh#i liked that they tried to give norman more of a character bc a lot of characters do often get neglected in the series but it was kind of -#- hard to sell that for me? the twist in this rewrite was very creative and i do appreciate it but i guess it just ain't for me#“different” is ok and this is just one of many fan rewrites for this particular story#if there was something i enjoyed.. i guess the beginning was still kind of exciting because the set up was honestly like hype a bit#i liked that diesel and d10 actually got to interact face to face and there are clearer dynamics established for the diesels#and also. silverband's performances as d10 will always be fun he does a fantastic job voicing him (how d10 stole xmas will still be my fav)#my criticisms for this movie also derive from the pacing and the voice acting - i found it hard to try and understand tones sometimes -#- because the delivery felt so off.. like don't get me wrong not everyone in the fandom is a voice actor but if we're using static faces -#- for these fan works the delivery has to be a little more clear or else it'll sound like you're reading from a script.. sorry yall :"|#for the pacing i found it a bit hard to parse when some things were going on and how fast things were progressing#as well as the crashes.. that's also another thing bc i couldn't tell bc of the sfx and audio balancing - it could be better..#i wanna say. muffled voices do not substitute for a “far away”/off-screen voice bc i still can't hear it :“|#there were a lot of throwbacks and references to older thomas media/movies but some of them felt a little.. much?#if this is a dotd rewrite why are we getting some parallels with tatmr.. but i digress. at least they made diesel beef with duck a bit#there's a lot more i could say but i'm keeping those to myself. at the end of the day this fan movie was hard work for everyone involved#and you can tell some of the folks were having fun in there - props to them! i'm always glad to see more fan works in the community#we've come so far we're making feature length fan stories and rewrites that's crazy! i hope to see more in the future#fauxtrainpost.txt

Me, today: I will not get angry about people slandering Jesus. I will not lose my temper seeing yet another post throwing His character in the garbage as some politically woke or politically conservative people pleaser. I will not stab my hand with a fork when I see people poking fun at his friendships as homoerotic - *sees a post like that and slowly steps out of the internet*
No seriously. I am shaking the screen and BEGGING people to remember that even though Western Christian traditionalism has deep, *deep* wrongs, There Are Literal People Dying And Being Tortured Because Of Their Faith In Christ In The Modern World. And the way I see people making light of faith and outright mocking it or "dumbing it down" to appeal to their own moral worldview is sometimes kind of painful
#lemon duck quacks#i need a salt tag so people can block that....#I'll think of one later#anyway yeah....sometimes the things i see western folk doing to Christianity makes me sigh#what is it about humanity's need to make a mockery out of the things we disagree with?#I've caught myself doing it sometimes too and it's just sad#like I've seen people make mockery out of Eastern spirituality and religions or Islam or something#and it DOES make me mad#especially when I see adherents of those religions trying to placate people by going#'oh our worldview DOES actually support yours! we're friendly to your political stance :)'#when no. NO. you guys don't have to defend your worldview like that???#worldviews are called such because they're different and there WILL be times when moralities clash against each other!#DRAMATICALLY#and it's up to you to see if you can keep being friends/interacting with someone who has a drastically different moral standard than you#and if you can't there is no reason to try and make their religion/worldview fits yours or whatever#this is aimed at Christians too who try and force non-Christians to see things through their perspective btw#also just because you hate someone's viewpoint because it's objectively wrong to you doesn't mean you have to mock it or them#by all means try and deconstruct it if you want but stop making fun of it or pretending you know eeeeeverything about their worldview#sorry you guys i am VERY salty#maybe a tad bit angry but mostly salty#anyway you religious people who have studied your texts and persist in living it out even if it doesn't conform to the western world's#political worldviews (whether liberal or conservative in the us or uk or etc sense) have all my respect and 'hwaiting's#stars I'm so salty i could perseve my own meat with it

Hey y’all! Weird question time! First, an explanation: - I am allergic to vinegar - vinegar is acetic acid + water - apparently, the human body naturally produces small amounts of acetic acid And now, the question: Could I be slightly allergic to myself????? To the acetic acid??
#the person behind the yarn#tj asks weird questions#medical mention#allergy mention#I am going to be so mad if this is the answer to my health questions#but also if this is the answer to my health questions it's hilarious#I will be talking to my doctor about this next time I see her#but like...this theory is so ridiculous I had to share it?#but it does kind of make sense????#I do not know enough about human anatomy to know how plausible this is#but vinegar is a histamine liberator so it could be causing mast cell issues without it being a technical allergy#and if that's the case idk if self-produced acetic acid would have the same effect?#but I'm also not sure it functionally matters if it's not an IgE mediated allergy if the situation is eat the thing = allergy symptoms#if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck I'm going to go ahead and say I'm allergic to it#by which I mean it's easier to say I'm allergic to vinegar and alcohol than to explain to people that technically#it's maybe not an allergic reaction because the mechanism that activates it is different.#but the symptoms and treatment are identical.
