#nuclear madness

[morganbritton132]

Eddie’s live-streaming in bed one night, just talking stream of consciousness style, because he can’t sleep. He’s been rambling on for a few hours when Steve rolls over towards him and put his hand on Eddie’s chest.

Steve’s in that not-quite-awake state that usually leads to sleepwalking but this time, he’s just listing off either a grocery list or ingredients for a meal. Either way, Eddie stops talking and grabs a pen and paper to write down what he’s saying in case it’s important.

Steve finishes up by saying, “…tomatoes, pie, it’s a secret.”

“Ooh, a secret?” Eddie teases. “Tell me all your secrets, Stevie.”

He’s joking. He’s not expecting to get an answer because rarely does he ever get a coherent response from Steve when he’s sleep-talking. So it’s surprising when Steve presses his finger into the space over Eddie’s heart and says, “Remember when I broke your guitar.”

All the fond amusement in Eddie’s voice drops out of it, “Yes. I remember when you broke the guitar my mom left me when she died.”

“Dustin broke it,” Steve yawns, rolling away from Eddie onto his back. “Didn’t want you to be mad at him.”

Adding to unsettling pattern, Trump promotes threatening video

As a rule, when someone says, “I’m not for violence at all, but...” there’s a rather obvious problem.

This week, Trump kept this going. Asked about the prospect of incarceration as a result of his many alleged felonies, the former president added, “I think it’s a very dangerous thing to even talk about, because we do have a tremendously passionate group of voters, much more passion than they had in 2020 and much more passion than they had in 2016. I think it would be very dangerous.”

It was the next day when the Republican promoted a video that quoted him saying, over an image of his face and his campaign logo, “If you f--- around with us, if you do something bad to us, we are going to do things to you that have never been done before."

As part of an analysis of his incendiary rhetoric, a recent Washington Post report added, “There is now no denying that such language, even if you somehow regard Trump’s intentions as innocent, can lead to a very dark place.”

one's "blast shadow" How The Hiroshima Shadows Were Created By The Atomic Bomb (allthatsinteresting.com) won't provide any shade during climate change catastrophe/ crisis

One popular post-war narrative holds President Harry Truman as making the decision to drop the bomb rather than launch a massive invasion with US forces. History is more complicated than that tidy tell, which itself was a postwar justification. What is notable instead is that President Truman, when he succeeded Franklin Delano Roosevelt, inherited a bomb program that was nearly ready for testing, and which was producing a weapon the Army expected to use. As historians like Alex Wellerstein have argued, there was never a specific moment at which a singular decision was made to drop the bomb.      “The day after Nagasaki,” writes Wellerstein in an article for The New Yorker, “Truman issued his first affirmative command regarding the bomb: no more strikes without his express authorization. He never issued the order to drop the bombs, but he did issue the order to stop dropping them.”https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/what-oppenheimer-doesn-t-tell-you-about-atomic-bombs/ar-AA1eb5gE?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531&cvid=3aef3ca7aeed4cae9326333d25ff3ff6&ei=191

Such a niche and uncommon thing, but I really do like seeing the different ways people try and pick apart Ganondorf's youth... guy didn't spring fully-formed into the world, he was a kid once! A little baby! Was he born evil, or corrupted somehow? Why or why not? It's really interesting stuff imo. He doesn't even start out with the Triforce even though he is destined against the odds to find it...

Also it's funny to see if people decide to make him a brat or more amicable. lol. No matter what he's gonna grow up to be an asshole so the journey there's always gonna have implications. And he's gonna get to be cute for a while. At least a little.

stepping in 2 say my piece from a queer perspective of this btw because im an itty bit unnormal BUT

i think trying 2 apply standard nuclear family dynamics/roles etc onto demon slayer characters (specifically the hashira) is counterproductive 2 the characters and story as a whole!! like Yes you have Some hashira who r more parental in behavior HOWEVER i think 2 view them as a parent figure rather than a guardian figure reduces a lot of them down to nuclear family traits! like it or not kny has queer elements to it even if it probably wasnt intended (emphasis on found family, a very queer trope, as well as the fact that the corps is legit a bunch of people w similar hardships and struggles coming together to defeat a mutual threat, which is also symbolic of the queer community)

anywaysanyways . there’s a difference between “guardian” and “parent”. guardian 2 me is essentially… taking on the protective role of a parent, yes, but u dont have, like… whatsit. i dont want to say “care” because guardian is also a very caring role that also involves looking after someone but it’s just Different in nature, if that makes any sense? so i think to place ESPECIALLY characters like shinobu, who’s as some have already pointed out, “maternal” nature is just her unhealthy coping mechanism and a projection of kanae, it washes out her character so so so much!!!!

if u WANT to place some kind of labels for family dynamics onto kny characters “guardian” works just fine because that is what they Are. “sibling” also works just fine too methinks.

idk if this is just a whole lot of Nothing but! kny mischaracterization gets on my nerves blegh

FINALLY SOMEONE MENTIONS THE NUCLEAR FAMILY STUFF ‼️‼️‼️🗣️ OH MY GOD YES

i completely agree anon loti… wiping a tear from my eyes… guardian…

i see people do this a lot where they take a found family and try to assign them roles like parents/siblings/etc— and it is okay to give them these bonds on their own, but to say like— “shinobu is the mom of the hashira” or “tengen is the cool uncle of the hashira” is pretty redundant and it ultimately goes back to stereotyping ): sometimes a found family is just a group of people. they dont need labels. they love each other and thats all that matters

i know i usually refer to gyomei as the dad of the hashira but i love guardian a lot more. im absolutely gonna use that from now on. its so much more fitting for his character

I’ve read ur fic and I decided that this doodle I finally finished is very Dipplinshipping core

I can't do this right now OH MY GODDDD 💀💀💀

Nothing - and I mean nothing - could've mentally prepared me for this artwork. I am being so real with you when I say I completely fucking lost it when I opened this.

I want this to be a tee shirt. And a mug. I want this plastered on my wall so I can stare at it and wheeze uncontrollably any time that I'm reminded that I exist in the same timeline as this art. How on earth did this get birthed into existence. Why. Why is it so perfect. Oh my god I can't even scroll up and look at it I'm going hysterical again.

😂😂😂 thank you so much for all of your time and effort with making this absolute gem of a meme masterpiece. This completely made my day.

YOU.

ARE.

You people had me thinking joker straight up beat Jason to death with a crowbar

He was unconscious from the beating for most of the ten minute countdown on the bomb and woke up at the two minute and four second mark. He then decided to try and save his mother (who earlier betrayed him to joker to cover up her embezzling money) and they both managed to get to the door before finding out joker locked them both inside. Then they got blown up together

It’s like 200% worse

I've seen so many different interpretations of 73 Yards and all of them are better than any hard, concrete answer or technical explanation that rightly were not provided. It's a ghost story.

thinking about your dnd character at random like "I need to give them a HUG" and "them" is an eight-foot-tall archfey who could probably kill me with passive intimidation alone, whose internal organs are just a writhing mass of fungus, and who only for legal reasons has a physical form
