my brain while im explaining what statutory rape is to a fucking freshman.

A FRESHMAN. FUCKING 1 4.

A 14 YEAR OLD.

WHAT THE FUCK

I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN THAT WHAT IT EXPERIENCED WAS RAPE.

IT SHOULDN'T HAVE EXPERIENCED THAT. THEY'RE 14. IT SHOULD BE FUCKING PLAYING IN A MACDONALD'S PLAYPLACE.

NOT. BEING GROOMED. AND USED AND MANIPULATED. NO.

I want to take. every single pedophile. cut off their hands. rip out their tongue. let it rot in front of them for a couple days. and then make them eat it.

you ever even look at a kid that way again i will rip out your eyes and make you swallow them whole. a bit of ah. forced self reflection. if you will. look inside yourself, will you?

What do ya see? that's right.

nothing. The void.

It smiles at you, not that you can see it, you have no eyes. you also can't talk to it, as you have no tongue. and you definitely can't shape it to your will. you have no hands.

you could walk, but you have no will to do so. it would follow you, anyways.

all you can do is feel yourself decay as you return to the earth. to become a more productive member of society. like moss, or fertilizer. perhaps fungi.

Do you ever think about the fact that the ONE time Sanji let himself be comfortable and enjoy dresses and makeup with cigarettes, Ace died and Luffy almost died all alone and so far away. Will Sanji ever forgive himself for daring to relax and explore himself a bit while catastrophic things were happening? (Jk he'll never do so again, just in case)

i dont know what to say other than if you think all human bodies should smell like a spring breeze then you need to lower your standards. everybody sweats. everybody stinks. its called body odour because it comes from your body which, believe it or not, everyone has. some people are going to have BO even if they use fragrances and antiperspirant/deodorant. and if you think commenting on how bad somebody smells is a good idea then newsflash for you: it isnt. grow up.

Thinking about how Mike's idea of starting a fire in the tunnel didn't save El like he wanted but saved Will because it was the last sprint he needed to get rid of the black particles inside of him, instead after that fire all the demodogs go towards El to attack her when she was trying to close the gate, what saved El was her platonic connection with Hopper that protected her in that moment

i like the thought of seto holding yugi's face and going "it's you. it's always been you and always will be" except he's fucking pissed off about it so yugi's getting extremely mixed signals and having to play 'decipher kaiba's emotions' in real time

[logictoinsanity]

chat what do you do if the poolverine brain worms are so strong that you have at least two separate fic ideas that won't get out of your brain but you haven't written anything in years and you don't even have a laptop but no one else is gonna write it and even if they did they wouldn't do it how I'd do it and the constant writing-in-my-brain is really annoying but you hate writing on a phone

can i be fr for a minute?? sending abuse to people online for holding different views than you is not activism and in fact actively hurts your cause. most people are not extreme in their viewpoints, you can give them a new perspective if you're willing to spend some time explaining shit. if someone is saying something you disagree with and you rush in there to condescend to them and call them disgusting and subhuman and dont even TRY to explain calmly why their views are harmful, they're going to shut you out instantly and double down on their views.

most people are simply genuinely ignorant to the issues they're talking about - they just pick their views up from the news and the world around them and express opinions because that's what every person does. if you run in there and tell them they're scum for it, what then? if someone does that to you, are you going to think "maybe i should do some research" or are you going to think "this person is an asshole, im blocking them." a lot of you think you're activists and then refuse to do any kind of actual WORK to support your cause.

Something something of COURSE in the end it's Stolas who has the power to end the conversation and whisk Blitz away rather then keeping at it when things get rough, off script, and honest.

Stolas want's a storybook romance. He's had it fermenting and stagnating in his head since he was a kid.

Stolas grew up in an environment of putting on airs and pretending to be perfect.

Stolas has no reference point for FIGHTING in a relationship except for an arranged marriage that they both openly did not want to be in, with zero real emotional stakes re: their bond with each other. (The primary stakes were playing bare minimum nice for the kid. Which they still failed at, but that's another topic.)

Of COURSE he doesn't understand that love and resentment at past wrongs (that can be exhumed and dealt with) can exist simultaneously.

How could he? He's never had an emotional investment with an equal, a peer, at all. ;-;

Blitz is intensely fucked up. They're BOTH fucked up, obviously. But this one? Dang it Stolas. ;_; If they'd just continued the conversation instead of Stolas' actively ending it and teleporting Blitz away, they might have GOT somewhere.

havent seen this take in a while thankfully but it popped up in my head and i wanna post this anyways. i think everyone who talks about how siffrin “got off too easy” at the end of isat and his friends should have abandoned him should go read warrior cats if they want an example of a character using their trauma as their god-given jailbreak card to treat their family and peers (a good amount of whom who were completely innocent) like dogshit, and who faces zero consequences from the narrative for it (and in fact bends over to blame their peers). like read all the shit jayfeather does while the narrative sobs over how tragic but awesome and quirky he is and then look me in the eye and tell me siffrin’s ending was poorly written.

why is everyone so obsessed with absolving bruce of all responsibility and fault. like no actually he is not 100% innocent in the child vigilantes he did in fact literally just Yoink Jason and make him robin at the ripe age of 12. jason would Not have become a vigilante (or died!) if bruce hadn't made him that. like he is actually 100% responsible for picking up a kid and turning them into a soldier

Istg, people are hating so much on every driver this weekend as if it's not valid to be angry and frustrated when your team is fucking up your strategies, calls, and pits— not to mention the poor radio updates. Not that some of them made poor mistakes and decisions too, but it's also not solely their faults as well.

Like seb said (not these exact lines, but near), "what do you expect to hear from someone when I hit them? oh, sebastian, that's not nice! ofcourse they're gonna be mad!"

going by this, if you think any drivers are way too mad or sad or frustrated this weekend, give them grace. they are humans, they can be sensitive and aggravated like us fans :))

this is a weekend to forget for all of us— both fans and drivers— so let's give them our support and pray that the next gp will be better for them.

additional notes:

— if you hear even one radio from any of the drivers, none of them sound amused. like us, they are pissed and frustrated

— check post race interviews.

— nico rosberg: "took out the spark/excitement out of oscar's first win, and upsetted lando" (basically putting the blame on neither drivers)

— almost all drivers had problems in the car upgrades or team strategies.
