Im just thinking about Shuuji

like, the fact that on the surface level, Shuuji is supposed to be the more morally "good" KillerKiller.

he HATES murder, he finds it disgusting to the point of vomiting while talking about it. he kills killers the purge the world of evil, he wants to protect innocent people. He wants to be the hero. thats why he dreamt about being a police officer.

but theres one thing that overrides all of that.

his love for Takumi.

and because of that, we see that he isn’t as good as he tries to portray himself. He’s willing to kill hundreds of innocents just to get Takumi to stop being KillerKiller. hes willing to throw away all his morals to "save" one person. he even offs himself just so Takumi can’t kill him.

Contrast to Takumi, who is very snooty about killings, but it comes from a place of love and passion. He doesn’t try to pass it off as some haughty bullshit like Shuuji does. He kills killers because he loves passionate murders. He finds murder beautiful.

He doesn’t kill non killers. Not even when he’s backed into a corner (ex: Juzo). He keeps his morals straight, even if they are horrible. Hes honest with himself and everyone else, hes a serial killer who kills other serial killers because he’s in love with the concept of murder. thats it.

which is fascinating when Takumi rates Shuuji's killings a 100/100, despite not being passionate. (the only time we see a perfect score, its implied mukuro also has a perfect score but we never see it)

this is so yaoi

very obscure fantasy books for children i read when i was twelve and that didn't even got to have its WHOLE series translate:

The Tapestry by Henry H. Neff

(In my language "l'Académie Rowan")

Anyway, I remember it was a good read and I do want to reread it but I'm so lazy to pick it up in english so yeah, sucks to be french I guess

“If we don’t use a technology then it’ll never get the funding to become sustainable”

No, my friend that’s called delusion.

I can see where they’re coming from but like remind me again when has a company made the change to become sustainable? Only after other companies have started out sustainable and there’s been a massive push to become sustainable.

A company will not change its shit unless it becomes monetarily unbeneficial for them and the best way we can make them listen is by hurting their income and that is to boycott.

It’s always worked like that because people will make a fuss and still use the product so the company goes “oh well no issue it’s just people talking shit”. When a new company starts up with a primary focus on sustainability from the get go and the consumers move towards that new company, does the original take a moment and then go “oh maybe we should be sustainable”.

AI are run by money hungry CEOs who don’t give a shit until their money starts going down.

So, don’t write fic with AI. Don’t make art with AI. Don’t get your emails written by AI. Avoid it as much as you can’t.

Don’t read fic with AI don’t comment on it I made that mistake they’re just getting more notes essentially calling me a cunt and feeding one another’s fantasies. Shout out to the one commenter that’s still fighting the good fight🫶

Boycott AI where you can. Call people out on using ChatGPT and other generative AI.

I know I’m not the first person to say this but fandom’s seeming need to shove any character dynamic into some kind of familial role (siblings, father-son, mother-daughter etc) increasingly feels just as stifling and dismissive of platonic love as making every relationship romantic does.

I dunno man do you view all of your close friends as siblings cause I sure don’t. and I definitely don’t think of them as parents

The Kings men, chapter four

Okay i'm literally shaking posting this, i've been working on it for days i lost all objectivity about it.

Someone requested this scene when I asked for recommendations on an older post, so this is tkm chapter four:

"Andrew sprawled on the couch in the lounge while Kevin went ahead to change out. Neil hesitated, changed his mind and started after Kevin, and changed his mind again. He stood behind the couch, folding his arms across the back of it, and peered down at Andrew. Andrew had one arm folded under his head and the other draped over his eyes to block the light. 'One of these days you might as well practice with us,' Neil said."

This scene is so long I had to cut some parts (including the incredible "You let us run ourselves into the ground and clean up behind us. You play the game like you play life. That's why you're so good at it.").

Not to mention Andrew's height fear, one of my all-time favorite aftg quotes ("When you said you were afraid of heights, you were joking, right?" "Andrew, you can't be. What were you doing on the roof?" "Feeling." -tkm ch.5).

Update: I cut the (too long) comic into smaller images so that you can open it and have a better quality, hope it works!

if i didn’t know any better, i’d say that helena has developed an erotic fixation on mark and has plans to pursue both him and his outie in what might be termed a “throuple”.

I don't want to regret the way I lived

[prlssprfctn]

Kinda obsessed with headcanon, where Damian and Jason just randomly (out of nowhere, completely unprompted) start to referring to their shared past in the League in the middle of the family conversations, while everyone just stare at them in concern

Like

Jason, staring at Dick, trying to put Tim's shoulder back: huh, do you remember that one time-

Damian, instantly: when grandfather's shoulder relocated by itself, but instead of properly putting in on its place, he killed himself and mother threw him in the Lazarus Pit?

Jason, cackling: it was hilarious

Damian, no less amused: right?

Bruce, sitting behind them: (concerned sips of tea)

Or, it is not necessarily funny, but it just cute (or sad) details, regarding each other that others are confused about.

Jason, who accidentally fell asleep in the Batcave: (instinctively cards through his hair as he naps)

Tim, teasing: ladies and gentlemen, the criminal lord of the year--

Damian: Drake, bluntly, that's not funny. Back when he was out of the Pit, this was the only thing that could help him to calm down.

Dick, knowing that this is because Bruce constantly stroked Robin!Jason's hair, when he saw nightmares, with eyes full of tears: oh

Jason on the random Friday night, trying to be less awkward about staying with Bruce in one room: actually, Damian's first word was my name

Bruce: really?

Jason: he had, uh, problems with saying his first word. People around him were constantly speaking on both language at the same time, and, I guess, he couldn't figure out what to say. Then, Ra's said that if his heir doesn't get his word in the next two weeks, he will throw him in the Lazarus Pit (as a joke), but I wasn't sure if it was a joke (Talia said later it was), and I panicked, and since Talia wasn't around, I just kept repeating him her name, or just word Mother, but he just, uh, wouldn't say anything - kept blinking and staring at me like a little idiot. And then on a random night, he just grabbed me by the hair, and said, Jason. Food. And he kinda spoke properly since then. Like in full sentences and stuff. I think he just didn't want to speak with us, actually--

Bruce, getting grey hair out of nowhere: RA'S SAID WHAT--

And sometimes they just speak in Arabic, and Damian keeps bullying Jason that his skills are getting rustier.

[frownyalfred]

the humorous upside to Jason really doubling down on being the kind of Red Hood who is at best morally grey and makes a habit of chopping off heads and shooting anyone he doesn’t agree with is that he is 100% Batman’s obscenely scary dog. the second he puts that bat symbol on his chest it’s over, even if it’s a mockery or a message or whatever. Gotham’s underbelly shits their pants when they see Red Hood. and therefore, Batman — brutal as he is, but so much less lawless, in a way — is suddenly the nice cop in his own city. the city where he routinely cracks skulls, stalks targets in the shadows, and throws people off buildings to get information. Jason makes him the “easy” option in Gotham, and while I’m sure the whole Jason thing keeps Bruce up at night for other reasons, that must be so frustrating? here you have a little shithead upstart elbowing into YOUR city and breaking the rules and suddenly goons are being nice to you? or they’re acting out because they’re more scared of the “other guy.” only a father could love that kind of prodigal son without strangling him.

ARCANE LEAGUE OF LEGENDS: 2x08 - “Killing is a Cycle”

[lungthief]

listen. i know it's not 2014 anymore and i know it's just a throwaway line and that the russo brothers didnt intend for marvel action blockbuster captain america the winter soldier to become the tragic gay love story that never was but man. having steve say "it's kind of hard to find someone with shared life experience" in a conversation about romantic relationships right before the bucky reveal is so cruel. it's not just about steve and bucky obviously having the shared experience of being "out of time," it's the fact that they've both been stripped of their humanity in opposite directions. steve is a legend, he is an american hero and a national icon before he is a human being the same way that bucky is a weapon and a killing machine before he is a human being. steve knows that anyone who falls in love with him in the 21st century fell in love with captain america first, and that's just not him. but then the one person who knew him first and knew him best and loved him (not captain america, that little guy from brooklyn) so much he died for it is alive, impossibly. and it's a miracle because he's back and it's horrific because he's back under the worst possible circumstances. but to steve, the winter soldier is worth tearing the world apart for because he's always been bucky first. they find each other and suddenly they're human again. and maybe, despite it all, being "out of time" becomes a blessing, because in this century they'd finally be allowed to love each other the way they've always wanted to. like real people do.

like. no. the captain america trilogy isn't about two queer men traumatized and alienated by war and modern life rediscovering and reclaiming their humanity through their love for each other. but. i mean. it couldve been

I keep seeing ads for cotton candy flavored vape pods on tumblr and it made me wonder…

Why/Why not in the tags?

I’m interested because I feel like when I was in high school/college in the mid-10s, almost nobody smoked - even if you otherwise had some pretty hard vices. I think it was considered not really worth it for something with such a small buzz. But now, idk. Maybe the advertisers are right to target people here because it’s just that popular again??
