#my rant for the day

[she-is-ovarit]

Give office workers art and plants. College staff and post office workers and IT and others in clerical work have environments of blank white walls and fluorescent lighting. And sometimes no windows. Nine hours a day. Often staring at a screen. Budget for mental health. Make it unweird to value art and fill workspaces with plants. And mother mary let them take walks every hour. We evolved to be bipedal to walk for fucking forever. It's like making a large active dog spend 9 hours in a cramped cage or leaving a salmon to live out its life cycle in a puddle. Humans need to walk. And see green. And there's literally a form of torture called white torture. Those walls should be art.

sometimes I wonder about how quickly peter, susan, edmund, and lucy had to grow up during the golden age after they’re crowned high kings and queens of narnia.

like I keep thinking about how at the time of their coronation, they’re thirteen, twelve, ten, and eight years old at the time, in other words children. and suddenly they have this massive responsibility of ruling a nation of magical talking creatures placed on their shoulders. and along with it they have to now make all of these important grown up/adult political decisions on subjects that are probably way over their heads and are most likely difficult for them to comprehend initially because let’s face it….. they are CHILDREN!

like I just imagine them hosting a political advisor or whatever from calormen or archenland at the very beginning of their reign and let’s just say their guest is like forty years old. like imagine being that guy who visits cair paravel to discuss politics with children. i mean. it’s kinda hilarious. and not be rude but if I were that guy I’d leave immediately because there is no way those children will understand what i’m here to propose/discuss with them.

but on that note, i also feel like the pevensies had to really earn their respect from other officials of neighboring nations and it just makes me think that those first few months/years of their reign must’ve been pretty tough on the four of them instead of it being all golden, joyful, and easy.

like i want to say they had to really work hard to prove themselves worthy of their titles because if i have to be realistic I’d have to say that most political advisors, rulers, ambassadors in narnia probably didn’t give them the time of day to discuss anything with them because of their ages.

granted they probably had some help from mr. & mrs. beaver, mr. tumnus, aslan, and others. but my golly these children had so much thrown at them at such young ages that it’s honestly kinda whacked and insensitive of the narnians to put so much trust, belief, and support behind them when they were only just CHILDREN.

Marvel has ALWAYS been humanistic, despite the woke labels conservatives will put on it; I'm not saying it's always been great at promotion, but the themes of inclusivity, union, and fighting the greater evil have ALWAYS been around. People just get indignant when it doesn't fit their idea of righteousness and what's good—I've been saying this for a long time that hatred and ignorance breed generalization and exclusion. Just look at the X-Men franchise, my favorite Marvel brand. Marginalization is the key, underlying facet of the comics, movies, and the general storyline as a whole. As is the Avengers in a way, the group fights for what is right. So it always baffles me when 'fans' are ruffled by, say, the introduction of queer, POC, or women characters as if it's a bad thing. We have bigger issues to worry about in real life than Loki being genderfluid or Mystique raising Nightcrawler with her girlfriend ( sorry if I got that wrong, it's been a LONG time since I've been active in the fandom )

My point is that despite issues regarding the time-frame of progress in Marvel, we're getting it now. The thing people need to understand is that representation is overdue AND that Marvel is about manifesting an environment where everyone, regardless of gender, sexuality, race, religion, and background, can find themselves in!

Anyways, sorry for my tangent there, thank you for posting this!

I am so over human language especially in commercial areas and random people on the internet making shit up. WORDS MEAN THINGS GUYS. They MEAN. THINGS. there is NO such thing as "american" wagyu because the fda has no standards set like Japan does. You can legally call any beef wagyu here! It means nothing!

"Ancient volcanic rock" ancient is not a geologic term! It means nothing! You're just trying to sell nasty water!

"Purifying face product" that word means nothing! Does it chemically exfoliate? Is it just soap you need fancy words for? Stop using word vomit to push your crappy influencer products

"Detoxifying cleanse" you do not just have random toxins floating around in your body like a hysterical uterus! Things that are in your body that shouldn't be get filtered out by your liver! That's its job! Chugging kale juice does NOTHING and these magical toxins that you need (insert product here) for arent real!

Words mean shit! There are so many words and descriptors we've completely warped the meaning of just because of capitalism and influencer culture and Facebook ads and middle aged white people magazines! Stop using random words to sell your shit and sound smart to other people! Stop letting corporations say whatever they want and get away with it! I'm feral rn, I'm going to start clobbering people with dictionaries

Thinking about the fact that Mabel and Dipper didn't know they had two great uncles.

Yeah they are 12 and at 12 I had a shotty understanding of my family tree- But really? Nobody brought up their great uncle? Stanley? Especially since they'll be staying with his twin brother, Stanford?

Shermie never went to Stan's fake funeral, which to me means the twos relationship was strained on some level. If Shermie is older that means his view of Stan was poisoned in some way, that even as kids they weren't close. If the Shermie is younger then he never even got to meet Stan and all he knew about him was how he failed his family. Hell, people probably barely mentioned Stanley TO Shermie.

The fact that Stan had become a black stain upon the Pines family name makes me so vividly upset. Stanley faked his death and the family just- seemingly decided to strike him from the record. To pretend he didn't existed to spare themselves the sadness and shame.

Stanford and Shermie Pines. The only children worth mentioning of Filbrick and Caryn Pines.

It was never Stanford that was lost to the world. It was Stanley, ever since he had to leave New Jersy- it was always him that had to be struck from the record. Change his name, change his state, change his affiliations, destroy the remains of ghost that was Stanley Pines. Kill him so the family doesn't bring him up, doesn't ask questions, stops asking "Stanford" about his twin.

I just keep thinking about the fact that since the day he made one single mistake all the way up until Ford walks out of that machine- Stanley Pines was killed and did not exist. And Stan himself had no one to blame, he had to play the part in his own demise- He is the only one who ever knew Stanley was alive and has been for decades.

He lives in the multitudes of every personality he's ever taken, all in the hope that he himself can stop being Stanley Pines.

someone: are you okay

me: so in 1964 john lennon wrote one of his only love ballads, "if I fell" and called it auto biographical even though it doesn't match w any of his public relationships. the lyrics can easily be flipped to be about him pining for someone already in a relationship with a woman which would most likely be a man (as seen in "across the universe" where they did the song from a woman's pov to a man without changing the lyrics and it still worked). he wrote the full lyrics for the first time on the inside of a valentines day card and in the corner you can see his handwriting that says "to: paul with love" with an arrow pointing inside and some doodled hearts. it was auctioned off in the 2000s, but the description only says it was written on a plane on a card "given to paul" as a spare paper, not acknowledging the little dedication with the hearts. years later he referred to it as a "silly love song," referring back to paul's song that was in turn referring to his mocking comments. and that's why he's a fa-

one thing i see often about movie cherik specifically is people assuming erik is staunchly anti-telepathy but this is simply not true. there are multiple times when erik tells charles to stay out of his head, yes, but these are all moments when he is exceptionally angry. we know erik likes that charles thinks there’s good in him, and we also know he disagrees. he tells charles to stay out when he believes his anger will make charles see his true nature.

but there are also moments where he welcomes charles inside his mind. when they train in first class, charles asks “may i” and wiggles his fingers, and erik agrees without hesitation despite having no idea what charles plans to do. he trusts him. multiple times throughout the prequel movies, when he is without his helmet, he brings up the fact that charles could make him do whatever he wishes. he is joking, but the fact that he can joke about it at all shows just how deeply he trusts him. he never shows disgust or mistrust towards charles ability- in fact his whole fight is that no one should have to hide their mutation

even when he puts the helmet on the first time, he says “sorry charles, it’s not that i don’t trust you” he simply knows that he is disappointing him- knows that without the helmet, charles would be able to stop him, but also knows he wouldn’t, and is therefore saving them both from the what ifs when he chooses to wear it

tldr; erik never actually had a problem with charles inside his head! and it drives me crazy when that’s the whole basis of fics even though erik trusts charles more than he has ever trusted anyone else from the very moment they meet
