Why is it called a 9-5 who the fuck gets to go in at 9
#how did we get here#how did this happen#end the 5 day work week#before it turns to a 6 day work week#take a stand#before it’s too late#where we’re at breaks my heart#we’re not meant to live like this#all work no play#work for nothing#obtain nothing#work work work#can’t afford a vacation#can’t afford a day off#can’t afford anything

I know i’ve said it before. But this discourse about the ethics regarding taylor swift being a billionaire are so disingenuous. She doesn’t have a makeup line, clothing line, brand endorsements.
The bulk of her income is entirely from her own talent as a musician. She has not exploited anyone. She’s also not even close to being a cash billionaire when you look at the numbers it’s like half of that ( bc it’s hard to become a billionaire without shady shit) . Taylor is known to pay her employees well. By percentage what she gives away to charity and compensates her team with is unheard of. She gave 10% of her net worth away in bonuses to everyone who worked on her tour. That’s just what we know of.
I’m not even saying this as a fan, but you cannot look at someone like her and how she moves and compare that to other billionaires and oligarchs.
I’m all for wealthy people paying their fair share. I hate capitalism and the current system but I do think she’s a good example of doing the best to be ethical within the current system
#I’m not even shading other music stars who have side hustles but she is truly just making art#Forbes should put her on a separate page bc I don’t want her next to awful people#she’s also not even a cash billionaire or even close#bc yes it’s actually very hard to be a billionaire#celebrity brands are also nothing compared to mega corporations#the only grey area is merch but that’s controlled by umg and the practices are no different than any other UMG artist#she never even announces whe she makes a massive donation but by percentage of wealth given it’s very unusual#she has been known for taking care of her team and paying above rate for years#like you can have issues with a system that doesn’t tax wealthy folks but Taylor swift isn’t even up there in terms of ultra wealthy#I know she used to have some endorsements but that was decades ago and not a factor here#im not even saying this as a fan of hers like the way she moves as a wealthy person is not at all comparable to ‘ billionaires’#I’m not a fan of capitalism but I think she’s a good example of operating as ethically as possible within the current system#$400m is just the value of her music catalogue#again big difference between her wealth that she’s actually earned and bezos musk and Zuckerberg types#she’s just producing art that people can obtain for free

my problem with how some folks view the "sibling-like friends" thing in scorn is that y'all view it as "emotional caretaker and younger sibling" and not "Friends who are so close that they may as well have been cut from the same cloth, share the same soul, and it's wild how they haven't known each other their whole lives, so they may as well be family" which is how it tends to go in real life, at least in my experience
#Its so strange that I've seen so much disdain for something so harmless as describing two characters to be sibling lik#Nothing really changes. Its not like theyre gonna start obtaining a nuclear family#I think people also misunderstand the found family trope and hate it for the wrong reasons#But that is just my onion#Like are none of you orphans. only children. found strong emotional connections where you wouldnt get it otherwise

it can be annoying to hear people say 'things will get better' when you literally know they won't and it's quite impossible for them to be in fact. but i get it. its hard to find any actual words of comfort when everything and every possible aspect of life is genuinely horrifically bad beyond belief. empty platitudes of 'we need to live because things will get better' are all we can have bc we cant actually stand up and risk our lives for change
#i dont like to blame things on other people when im no better#im afraid of dying or going to prison#and i have no money or resources to really do anything else#at least at this point#but it is frustrating to realize that even if i obtain resources and do my best it will change nothing#and not improve things for anyone else or myself#and i will generally not obtain simple human happiness or peace within my lifetime

the idea that Orym has a death wish has led to some of the most laughable meta I've seen. Orym tells his closest friend - who has a penchant for delightfully wild impulses, is possibly important to the enemy's plot, and is about to see her biological father, about whom she has all kinds of complicated feelings - to not take unnecessary risks and people are handing out pamphlets on "a Treatise on Orym's Belief in Doom; Being an Account of His Deep-seated Hypocritical Actions Regarding The Pact With Morrigan, Hag and Fatestitcher" and it's like. idk man maybe they're going to be separated in a very clearly dangerous scenario and she specifically is in an emotionally charged and tricky one and he is saying "be careful", a normal thing friends might say to each other.
#people will be like Liam O'Brien is a shakespearian actor and professional sadboy (I disagree w/the latter but. that's the consensus)#and then when he plays characters who say kinda dramatic pronouncements they'll be like WHAT DOES IT MEAN WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN#babygirl this is mr. you were not born with venom in your veins he talks like this in d&d all the time good gravy#cr tag#i do imagine people with bad takes especially on twitter handing out pamphlets with bad takes like they're a really stupid Thomas Paine#like FULLY in the town square of Plymouth Plantations or Mystic Seaport in costume crying out about their meta#and i am a tourist like man where's the shop where i can for reasons having nothing to do with this living history museum obtain a geode

People criticize the Itachi reveal often because I think they have it in their heads that the Uchiha somehow had a chance of survival in a war, when Kishimoto intentionally shows us that the Uchiha failed a war before to a much less powerful and all encompassing opponent. Because the Uchiha aren’t built for war, they are built for love. Itachi made the only decision he could that would guarantee the life of Sasuke Uchiha would be spared. The point of Sasukes character is that he was always loved. His path of darkness does not exist. His revenge is not against a random act of cruelty on him, isolate him, victimized because he is unloved, but a battle for a bloodline that was declared dead the moment Madara conceded. The Itachi reveal is not to “redeem” Itachi its to let us know that the core of Sasukes character was never darkness, but love.
#sasuke uchiha#naruto#itachi uchiha#I don’t think itachi is a character at all#he is a narrative device to introduce us to the concept of uchiha oppression#and on the note of his behavior to Sasuke in post that’s to ensure Sasuke has the power to survive#Itachi knows Sasuke lives in a village that hates his blood#with a hokage who genocided his people#the only way to thrive in that system is to obtain enough power for self preservation#Itachi was a martyr#Sasuke needed to hate him to keep pushing forward#letting a little boy be immediately disillusioned with his village before he even#has the means of fighting back would do nothing#itachi is not a good person whatever that means but no one in Naruto is#that is resoundingly the point of the Naruto#Hashirama exists to prove that#the pure hearted embodied by love Hashirama#signed madaras death warrant in his ignorance#in his submission#in his failure#everyone has failed

koshimizu standing in the proto-fiend tank room bc susano-o and amaterasu's tanks are the closest things he has to graves for them
#smt5#smtvv#smt v vengeance#hayao koshimizu#this thought wont leave my head tbh#god just the fact that he spent 18 years alone#since its said that tsukuyomi and amaterasu and susano-o were created when izanagi split himself into three#then they're like a part of each other in a way#koshimizu lost two thirds of himself and there was nothing he could do about it or even try to fix#i wonder if a lot of his driving force to obtain the throne was to figure out how to bring his siblings back to him#to return things to how they once were....

Big fan of this moment where Chip, Jeff, and Greg are playing a friendly game of “slap ass leap frog” and as soon as Jeff gets the opportunity to slap Chip’s ass he immediately goes in for a much harder slap than any of them had been doing before
#Means nothing I’m sure… unless.#cheff#please someone reblog this bc it took so much effort to obtain a high quality version of this clip LOL#There are some interesting moments on the drew carey show let me just say that#jeff b davis#jeff bryan davis#chip esten#greg proops#brad sherwood

What I like about Fear and Hunger is that it presents us with the question of “Is it worth it to sacrifice an innocent for the greater good?” and then shows us the answer of “Yeah...lmao jk it’s actually not”
#dexrambles#dexplaysfearandhunger#fear and hunger#funger#fear and hunger 1#f&h 1#f&h the girl#the girl fear and hunger#yeah sure humanity does progress and thus reach its potential like what nilvan wanted#but it came through war after war#all the evils in the world still exist even after people began worshipping the god of fear and hunger#and I'd argue that le'garde's part in it only fueled his ego in committing more atrocities#a little girl was made to live a life of pure suffering and misery all for the greater good#but that greater good still wasn't obtained people were still killing and being cruel#and the other gods still want to have their own stinger measuring contest (as someone called it) through things like the termina festival#so yeah#a child's suffering was essentially for nothing lol#it's the whole driving question behind the ones who walk away from omelas#then again I only played the demo and watched playthrough#so this observation may be rather inaccurate#fear and hunger spoilers#mine own postsss

I know it's not kosher to constantly say one game reminds me so much of another but holy hell linura reminds me so much of (yrmr)valla i'm flabbergasted. mentally jumping up and down at the constant WATER MOTIFS and the styles of ruins that feel like they're floating in the mists.
elden ring really was the absolute best game to larp as possessed!gunter lmao.
#even though i know there's Vaguely another area later in the game that has Actual Floating Ruins#THERE'S SO MANY SIMILARITIES... spectral wolf summons hit me in the feels considering i almost named yrmr 'the princess and the wolf'#(would have been too on the nose but readers Know the scenes that was nodding at)#also obtained one (1) gravity magic super early solely because it's purple#(kronk meme) it's all coming together >:3#oddly this feels comforting... i was going to feel Some Sort of Way at nothing coming close to rev but this kind of does without it being-#TOO similar. having my cake and eating it for so many drawing refs while being so enjoyable in its own right.... lost in da sauce...

I've been watching tons of videos of speeches from serial killers, cult leaders, (confirmed) psychopaths etc today and Tobias does plenty of the subtle things they do, from tone and phrasing to body language. It makes it x100 scarier for me to then look at how Tobias has made every single person he's come across like him to some degree or another, sometimes simply by existing and other times by tailoring his manipulation strategies to their psyche
#tbd.#◜✧ . ❪ muse. tobias. ❫#What makes me most 😬 about Tobias' specific brand of manipulation is that it works EVEN on the toughest nuts to crack#Doesn't matter that the other person hates people. Doesn't matter that they don't trust people. Tobias eventually ALWAYS manages#to make them trust and/or like him (<-depending on what he wants to gain from them afterwards). A degree of fondness is always present#(Yk that 'ugh you're so annoying but something would be missing from my life w/o you here' kind of fondness... yeah Tobias' specialty)#Sometimes he wants both their trust and their favorable opinion. Other times he only needs one & stops after he obtains it#But to watch these kinds of videos & have Tobias in the back of my mind pointing out in EACH speech what the abuser did wrong#and what HE would have done to correct it/make it better; makes me shudder in the knowledge that he's right & he DOES do it better#That said watching these speeches has also made me realize that he's Intentionally not doing certain things that those criminals did#in the sense of body language. Half of the clues you'd get in THEM; /Tobias/ doesn't do bc he Knows people might look out for those#Either way I'm still watching some bc this is simultaneously terrible and intriguing but like 😭 I was thinking about how many#kinds of people Tobias has met on here & ALL of them have some sort of soft spot for him or another; EVEN the ones with the most#barriers known to man. Like Ash for example having a crush on this guy is killing me bc yes Tobias DOES genuinely like Ash#but everything he's done to /gain/ Ash's trust and care was planned. He's thinking everything through before he's doing it. Very few#exceptions of doing smth purely by instinct or impulse. Which again. kinda terrifying! but he's got nothing bad planned for Ash so#that's a relief at least! F to everyone else though. He's perpetually mad at me for not allowing him to kill a muse bc of godmodding 😭#Tobias refusing to work w me after the 3rd time I've reined him in when he Would've canonly killed sb: If I can't kill I also can't reply.

Nick, Will & Alec are standing in an elevator. Will stands in between the other two, nervously fiddling with his thumbs while Alec and Nick are arguing brainstorming ideas for their break in. After some silence, Nick speaks up again.
Nick: Hey, let's do "Get Help".
Alec: ... What?
Nick: Get Help~ 😏
Alec: No! 😠
Nick: C'mooon, you'll love it.
Alec: No, I hate it.
Nick: It's fun!
Alec: It's humiliating.
Nick: Do you have a better idea?
Alec: ... No.
Nick: Then we're doing it. 😊
Alec: We are *not* doing "Get Help"!
Once they reach their designated floor, the trio is seen rushing out the elevator with Alec hanging limply and draped over Will's large shoulders, and Nick yelling frantically.
Nick: HELP! GET HELP! OUR FRIEND IS DYING!! GET HELP! PLEASE! HELP HIM!!!
With a mighty grunt, Will launches Alec across the room over at the three guards who were lined up at the entrance, knocking them all out when they make a collision. Afterwards, Will runs over to check on Alec & help him up while Nick just observes the situation and laughs to himself, feeling pleased with the success of his plan.
Will: Uh, sorry if I threw you too hard.. 😅
Nick: Ahh, classic~ 😁
Alec: *glaring right at Nick while he fixes his clothes* Still hate it! It's humiliating. 😡
Nick: *chuckling* Not for me it's not. 😏
More Incorrect Quotes! I've never watched the Thor movie but I know that this particular scene was a bit of a meme for a while, so... Here's this.
did you add a third person (Will) into this scene just because you thought that Nick wasn't strong enough to pick up Alec? that's almost funnier to me than the original scene lmao
#disventure camp#alec disventure camp#nick disventure camp#will disventure camp#disventure camp incorrect quotes#purple boys wildin#anyways despite the general meh state of the MCU nowadays thor ragnarok is still a pretty good movie. i'd recommend it#although i have no idea how it would read to someone who (possibly) knows NOTHING about the MCU#bc i've watched some of the marvel movies recently without having Obtained All the Lore and i feel like i've liked them a lot less#than those who fully know what's going on#but that also includes like the 2000s spiderman movies and the fucking electra movie of all things. so now it's really just unfair#okay mini MCU ramblings over sorry

was showing off my new terrible son waxwick to my bestie and she went radio silent for 15 minutes and then replied with this
#world of warcraft#Pokemon#it makes sense.....with the chandelure line being one of my favorites. the moment i saw these little candle guys running around in a delve#i think it was a delve! it was somewhere. i looked up the wowhead page and a good Samaritan in the comments said you can get one via cheevo#and then everything else left my brain and i thought of nothing but obtaining my son waxwick. so yeah.....i might have a candle problem
