I dont have anything profound or interesting to say rn, i just wanted to let everyone know how much i love Eddie Kaspbrack in the 2017-2019 remakes

I think I've been spoonfed media where characters who grow up like him, with an overbearing mommy and hypochondriac tendencies, are like

super wishy washy and bat their sad little eyes as they nervously twiddle their weak thumbs and have a nervous break down over someone sneezing and idk being so wooby and shy

But Eddie is just an utterly raw asshole

I say it jokingly but him being an actual jerk is so fun to me. He's rude and blunt and snatches shit out of his friends hands and always has some sort of comment to mutter under his breath. AND he's still a coward!!! (In the social sense his whole identity about discovering his own strengths and bravery is legitimately so interesting and i love it.) He's such an annoying little jerk who says something SO rude just to run off when it evidently gets him in trouble. He's unapologetically a cunt and it just tickles me

Does anyone know that tweet where its like

"You cant hit me!! Its my birthday!! Im the birthday boy you cant hit me on my birthday!!"

That's him

taking psychic damage whenever i remember teen!stan's reaction to ford coming back home after the wct staff rejected the perpetual motion machine

stan genuinely assuming that the machine was fine and that ford made it in......

More sketch doodles.

I had an idea for a DDMD Forduary thing that I didn’t end up going with, but the top little two-panel thing came to mind while I was thinking about it. It was too funny (to me) not to do a Ford reskin of that one Dipper scene from the original show’s DDMD episode. Now featuring Shanklin!

Also it was weirdly easy to translate Mabel’s character design to a bunny.

Also also I want that paddleball.

Don’t Make Us Use These “Hearts of Twilight” (1993)

[britneyshakespeare]

i found my old yo-yo the other day, like my very first yo-yo that i learned how to yo-yo proficiently with. a green duncan butterfly yo-yo i got for christmas in 2006. it still glides like a dream which is a miracle not just bc of its age but i never replaced the string. and after finding it and using it again it just brought me back to how entrancing it is, the rhythmic comfort of the string and the toy going up and down, the regular wrist motion. it's hypnotic. that's also how it feels after awhile of spamming one person with dozens of boops with my laptop mouse.

Silver could use his powers to play the world’s largest paddleball

[true-blue-sonic]

What I furthermore found irritating about this whole scene in issue 63 is that Lanolin gives the Diamond Cutters plus Silver a mission directive, and then proceeds to not follow it at all herself. Their mission is “coordinating moves and communicating in the field”... and then it becomes clear that Duo has not communicated. Silver says Duo ditched him, Duo protests he was getting help, Silver asks “Then why didn’t you say so?” And furthermore, Duo was not asking for help when he came up to the Diamond Cutters. He says that he couldn’t save Silver because the Chopper was too big... how is this asking for help?

Lanolin (and Tangle, Whisper is more unclear since she saw Duo kick Silver) does not notice these discrepancies. Instead, Lanolin has a clear example of a miscommunication on her hands, namely Duo running away and leaving Silver TO LITERALLY DIE without telling him what he is doing, aka the very opposite of the goal of their training... and she begins tearing into Silver. About how they ‘shouldn’t point fingers’ (what? Silver nearly died and Duo evidently did nothing, he himself says so!) and how she ‘expected better control’ from Silver and that he should ‘do better next time’ (what?! Woman, you 1. don’t know him personally at all, 2. know jack and shit about his powers, and 3. do know he is the saviour of the world on multiple instances, as indicated by Duo). OP is entirely correct: she is the greenest and newest member of them all (where furthermore her one mission in the field was a DISASTER where literally Sonic himself ended up getting captured by Eggman alongside Lanolin and Whisper), yet she talks and acts as if she’s got more experience than Sonic in hero-ing and Knuckles, Amy, and/or Jewel in leading organisations like the Resistance and Restoration. And since nobody calls her out for it, plus her One Moment Of Weakness about it never getting brought up again and in fact seems to be actively defied by her doing nothing to change her known vices for the better, it makes for an altogether unpleasant and unlikeable character to me.

Saw your thoughts on Lanolin and figured I should pipe in with why she tends to act that way, especially with the more recent issues she's starred in.

Lanolin, unlike all the rest of the cast, is a novice. She only seemed to have joined the Restoration during the Metal Virus, and the Eggperial City mission was her first time as leader. She even states herself that she's bossy and inexperienced in Issue 58.

The sheep's still got a lot to learn about leadership, so I think we can probably expect some more slip-ups on her part.

Hey, thanks for the ask! Sorry for the delay, but I had to catch up on the comics before I could answer this fairly.

I hear you completely, and you are correct. She IS new, and is a bit deserving of some lenience in that regard. However, I think that’s my central problem with her: she’s very new, and yet she speaks like the most experienced person in the room.

The way she critiqued Silver and chided him despite having ZERO experience with psychokinesis was incredibly irritating.

I understand she’s the “leader” of the Diamond Cutters, but she speaks with an authority that she truly hasn’t earned. If she’s so new, why is she the one taking so much charge and training people with the experience she doesn’t have? Seriously, out of all of the Diamond Cutters (core and “in training”), Lanolin has the least experience.

Also, I respect that Lanolin’s attitude and neuroticism is played for laughs, but it truly just reads as malicious to me—especially towards Tangle. It’s made clear in writing and through visual gags repetitively that not only does Lanolin has an objective problem with Tangle as a person, but she doesn’t seem to respect Tangle enough to communicate with her effectively.

It goes so far as to feel like Lanolin would prefer to outright replace Tangle if she had the choice in issue 62.

And it’s not even like it’s a silly joke for Tangle. She’s shown multiple times to actively dislike this bullying.

Again, she’s new. I get that. But if there’s a whole scene in issue 58 dedicated to the fact that she’s new and bossy and knows she should be better, why is no effort being made? It’s not cute to acknowledge your flaws only to amplify them later on.

I don’t know.

I don’t find this kind of character endearing. Lanolin comes off as an insecure girl who lacks empathy, which feels silly and mean to say about a fictional sheep, but she doesn’t even seem to be on some sort of character arc. This is just… who she is. And I find that incredibly disappointing.

i just think she would enjoy some paddleball

[anirritant]

like man the parallels between stan and bill are so so so so so fascinating to me ough...... the most obvious thing is that they speak so similarly, often using the same terms and i can't help but wonder how intentional it all was on the part of the writers. biggest one being "eenie meenie miney you" to me, it's so specific.

it could simply be bill picking up stan's mannerisms through ford's memories to further appeal to ford (is that canon somewhere? i don't actually know but i see it mentioned a lot) but some of these are things bill still says and does even when ford is absent. for a being that's lived for trillions of years would terms he picked up only a couple decades ago cement themselves in his behaviour so much?

(also, has anyone ever brought up dreamscaperers' deleted scenes where bill summons a paddleball in the mindscape? stan does the same thing in his own mindscape in the finale. again, that's so specific i can't help but wonder how intentional it was or if it was just a coincidence. i know deleted scenes might not be the best to point to as evidence but i think i've only ever seen someone allude to in one fic and nowhere else?)

i havent read tbob and haven't really kept up much with the new info from it but i have seen the poem about stan and gosh like. it really does seem like it's being consistently hinted at over and over that there's something there with specifically bill and stan. the axolotl's poem was already eyebrow raising with how much of it could be applied to stan and now there's even more..

[soultragedy]

richie tozier the kind of guy to have sex and then immediately pull out a paddleball afterwards

[theramblingvoid]

I do not in fact know this feeling. I just tried it because I was curious but I don't seem to be able to make it happen, it certainly doesn't happen on its own. Very interested to hear more about it

You know that feeling when you close your eyes and your bodily awareness goes bouncy/zooms in and out.

Yeah what's that all about.

I see your husband!art on beach vacation and raise you:

Boyfriend!Patrick on a beach trip. Patrick who you have to bring a bucket and shovel for him to dig holes. He digs a 3 foot hole and once he’s done that he’s on to the next task.

Patrick who you have to bring a tennis ball a dog ball launcher for you to launch the ball in the water and have him swim and chase it and bring it back which keeps him entertained for 2 hours until your arm gets tired.

Patrick who whines he’s boreeed while your trying to relax after he runs out of activities to do. Patrick who you have to fuck in a lounge chair to get him to finally relax enough to relax and take a nap.

-💐

EXACTLYYYY EXACTLYYYY!!!!

Patrick just does the most random shit honestly. Digging holes. Trying to catch fish with a cheap net he bought from a souvenir store. Finding shells and lining them up on your beach chair. Plays the little beach paddleball game but he’s too competitive and you get mad and quit after he launched the tiny little ping pong ball halfway down the beach. But yeah if it’s a private enough beach he’s definitely expending all of his leftover energy fucking you nice and slow, super tender and sweet and relaxing. Wrapped up in a towel, all body heat and salt and sweat. He knocks out immediately after and you can finally read your book.
