I like how I woke up, and everyone is obsessed over the "makoto in the meat package thing" cause *I've* been obsessed over that for a long time and is very grumpy to see the lack of fanarts of said makoto being packaged cause thats so him!!!!

I love to draw more makotos being drawn like, as a food product, in the most indirect anguish, and there's something about meat that radiates millions of different meaning and prespective. I have more ideas for him with it. Along with other things akfndjf

one of the things that's the most fucking frustrating for me about arguing with climate change deniers is the sheer fucking scope of how much it matters. sweating in my father's car, thinking about how it's the "hottest summer so far," every summer. and there's this deep, roiling rage that comes over me, every time.

the stakes are wrong, is the thing. that's part of what makes it not an actual debate: the other side isn't coming to the table with anything to fucking lose.

like okay. i am obviously pro gun control. but there is a basic human part of me that can understand and empathize with someone who says, "i'm worried that would lead to the law-abiding citizens being punished while criminals now essentially have a superpower." i don't agree, but i can tell the stakes for them are also very high.

but let's say the science is wrong and i'm wrong and the visible reality is wrong and every climate disaster refugee is wrong. let's say you're right, humans aren't causing it or it's not happening or whatever else. let's just say that, for fun.

so we spend hundreds of millions of dollars making the earth cleaner, and then it turns out we didn't need to do that. oops! we cleaned the earth. our children grow up with skies full of more butterflies and bees. lawns are taken over with rich local biodiversity. we don't cry over our electric bills anymore. and, if you're staunchly capitalist and i need to speak ROI with you - we've created so many jobs in developing sectors and we have exciting new investment opportunities.

i am reminded of kodak, and how they did not make "the switch" to digital photography; how within 20 years kodak was no longer a household brand. do we, as a nation, feel comfortable watching as the world makes "the switch" while we ride the laurels of oil? this boggles me. i have heard so much propaganda about how america cannot "fall behind" other countries, but in this crucial sector - the one that could actually influence our own monopolies - suddenly we turn the other cheek. but maybe you're right! maybe it will collapse like just another silicone valley dream. but isn't that the crux of capitalism? that some economies will peter out eventually?

but let's say you're right, and i'm wrong, and we stopped fracking for no good reason. that they re-seed quarries. that we tear down unused corporate-owned buildings or at least repurpose them for communities. that we make an effort, and that effort doesn't really help. what happens then? what are the stakes. what have we lost, and what have we gained?

sometimes we take our cars through a car wash and then later, it rains. "oh," we laugh to ourselves. we gripe about it over coffee with our coworkers. what a shame! but we are also aware: the car is cleaner. is that what you are worried about? that you'll make the effort but things will resolve naturally? that it will just be "a waste"?

and what i'm right. what if we're already seeing people lose their houses and their lives. what if it is happening everywhere, not just in coastal towns or equatorial countries you don't care about. what if i'm right and you're wrong but you're yelling and rich and powerful. so we ignore all of the bellwethers and all of the indicators and all of the sirens. what if we say - well, if it happens, it's fate.

nevermind. you wouldn't even wear a mask, anyway. i know what happens when you see disaster. you think the disaster will flinch if you just shout louder. that you can toss enough lives into the storm for the storm to recognize your sacrifice and balk. you argue because it feels good to stand up against "the liberals" even when the situation should not be political. you are busy crying for jesus with a bullhorn while i am trying to usher people into a shelter. you've already locked the doors, even on the church.

the stakes are skewed. you think this is some intellectual "debate" to win, some funny banter. you fuel up your huge unmuddied truck and say suck it to every citizen of that shitbird state california. serves them right for voting blue!

and the rest of us are terrified of the entire fucking environment collapsing.

Hello everyone.

I'm going to try very hard to only post about Good Omens after today. I'm scared, I'm sick, and I feel completely confused and lost. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way and I wish I had more reassuring things to say. For now, we have to take it one day at a time, that's all we can do. I can catastrophize all day long but we don't know how things will go day to day.

Listen. Listen. I know Kashika is first and foremost an Akito song. I know. I respect that.

However not for a moment since the second the 2dmv came out I could stop thinking about the fact that An is the only VBS member to not cover her face and instead place her hands on her neck.

Finding hilariously ironic how most of Sanji's perv jokes end up being extremely trans-coded to some extent only because the joke is longer than it should be.

The "guy with a woman's body" joke has been a thing for ages now, but it usually ends after the "haha I have booobs" joke. Sanji extends it to "I want to stay in this body forever. It feels right. I don't want to give it back". Which could still be read as some perverted stuff, but I don't think any man would agree with that. No matter how much of a pervert he is. Because usually being perceived as a woman is something they refuse to go through although they like being in possession sexually of a woman's body (a type of excitement Sanji actually shows, not by being that much aroused by it but being comfortable with it? Which is... A different approach to the joke).

Sanji has made the typical "going into the girl's changing room/bathroom" joke a couple of times, but in Egghead he goes all the way to be extremely frustrated about not being able to do so? And it is obviously different than wanting to keep Nami's body forever. It can still be seen as frustration for not being able to see girls naked. But. But. The fact that the length of the joke increases? The fact that it's way longer than it should be for an average "haha boobs" joke? You know what I mean.

Not to mention his whole arc during the time-skip and how a simple (both transphobic and misogynistic, by the way) joke, goes all the way to show us that Sanji is indeed comfortable in more feminine clothes and environment, until he's pretty much forced to snap out of his fantasy to go back to the crew. But he wasn't having a bad time at all. And it is intended to be a joke, but it's... Longer than it should be to be considered only a joke and to not pay attention to it.

This isn't meant to be an analysis of any kind because if it were I would've worded it differently and would've mentioned how his childhood is also extremely trans-coded, but we all already know that. I just find it extremely funny how all of these jokes that intend to be directed at straight perv men are actually too long to not be taken into consideration as something deeper than a joke. But, aha, yeah, these are just jokes and definitely not proof of Sanji's perception of gender and his issues with it.

I have traveled far beyond the path of reason, take me back to Eden

New year, new intro (or well first intro for this app)

Also you’d be surprised how many black butler fans overlap with DiaLovers fans it’s really funny. I’ve been in both fandoms for at least a decade now too and somehow my interest in both have always resurfaced at least twice a year.

Oh also a few other facts about me while we’re at it:

- I collect a LOT of official and fan merch, especially can badges and keychains. I need a better way to display them all though since they’ve been in my small storage container

- I’m a RitsuP, ReiP, Hiyori P, and MikaP. Although my favorite will always be Ritsu, I do prefer Eden songs haha

- The character you see is my self insert and is named Cecilia! However, I myself am called Cryptid. Cecilia is a placeholder name whenever I chuck her into a universe like Black Butler

- I have crocheted at least 7 punishing birds and I’m still making more for friends

- My next handmade cosplay will probably be Chilchuck cause my friends are planning a Dungeon Meshi group for a convention

- My 5 next cosplays for this year are Deuce Spade, Temmie (yes from undertale), Turbo Granny (cat version), Chilchuck, and Robin (HSR) if I’m extremely lucky. Ritsu Sakuma too if I’m really REALLY lucky

- For the DiaLovers fans out there, my favorite character has been and will always be Shu cause he’s probably the safest option + HAVE YOU SEEN HIM???? Azusa is a close second because of my cuteness aggression towards him

- If you have any otome game or dating sim reccs, PLEASE SEND THEM MY WAY IM BEGGING

damn remember when ichigo went full hollow and orihime was terrified of him but when ulquiorra, someone she has only known as a hollow and kidnapped her by threatening to murder all her friends and spent her whole imprisonment intimidating her, asked her if she was afraid of him she said she wasn't

to the person who left critical feedback on my bob dylan study I love you . I do plan to mention that in the discussion following the results section because it was SUCH a blunder that I was kicking myself for midway through collecting results but I didn't want to change horses in midstream so I just left the survey as it was. But there were so many little gender-related caveats I forgot to consider to be honest so I'm just rolling with the punches
