fr though you have to write bad poetry. poems are not handed down to you fully formed by god they are things that you have to work on and practice your skill at creating. nobody would expect you to sit down at a pottery wheel and end up with a perfect vase with no practice. it's a skill! art is a learned thing!! you have to make the shitty little pots with dents and marks and your fingerprints all over them in order to get better. and you're allowed to be proud of those first little pots you made too
#yeah maybe they leak or they don't look the prettiest but you literally made them...#people are so critical of their own + other people's amateur poetry in a way that they are not about so many other art forms#when someone starts crochet they are not expected to pop out perfect pieces immediately.#you don't start dance lessons and pull out a perfect pirouette. there's practice to be done and just because it's not physical#doesn't mean it's not a craft that has to be honed. you have to work at it.#and to work at it you have to be kind enough to yourself to let yourself be mediocre or outright bad. you Have to be#it's never a failure because anything you create is Something You Created and therefore a success#but y'know. the philosophy of you have to be prepared to fail. falling is part of getting back up all that#except that bad poetry will never hurt you it will ONLY ever help you improve <3 so keep writing it <3#you don't have to post it either the attention economy is so evil... keep it to yourself. and if sharing poetry is a thing you want to do#you can always wait until you feel confident in your work to do so. or show the people you love your bad poems.#cause people who love you will see your hard work and love it regardless. y'know?#not poetry

do you ever think about how Ohkubo extremely casually dropped the fact that Spirit & Kami were teen parents & then proceeded to never expound upon that fact or bring it up ever again despite it explaining a whole lot about them & Maka
#I think a big part of why I'm so attached to/interested in spirit as a character is because he objectively has A LOT going on in his life.#but because he was created to fill that stock pervy comedic-relief anime side-character archetype we never get to see any of it examined.#or even brought up at all for the most part#like spirit apparently comes from a long line of death weapons who despite having been loyal to lord death for generations are never ever#mentioned & who spirit himself never mentions despite carrying on the family tradition (although he's not unique in that regard tbh)#at 12-13 years old he becomes stein's weapon partner & in his own words it became “[spirit's] job to control [stein].”#another kid with a laundry list of mental health & behavioral issues that spirit probably wasn't super prepared to help “control”#(personally I think that this “job” of spirit's was a duty he took upon himself rather than something lord death necessarily told him to do)#then just ~5 years later he 1) loses/rejects said weapon partner & probably best friend after some really major boundaries were crossed#2) becomes a husband & father at just 18#(& in his own words a broke 18 year old at that. another point towards him not being in contact with any family if they're even alive)#3) becomes technically one of the most important people in the world once he ascends to being a death weapon.#not necessarily in that exact order but certainly in quick succession.#& then we fast forward to canon & spirit's at best a guy who drinks way more than he probably should & at worst a functioning alcoholic#who's only A MONTH into being divorced for his habitual infidelity & is in the really weird position of being the primary caretaker of his#daughter who (rightfully) hates him despite him having zero custodial rights over her.#& imo he seems to have no friends in death city before stein & the other death scythes return despite generally being a people person.#like. spirit is kind of the epitome of should've been at the club lmao#soul eater#spirit albarn#kami albarn#meta (kind of. not really lol)

I'm fascinated with how movie-verse!Charles must have discovered and experimented with his abilities. I imagine he must have started off scared and nervous and then rapidly swung to being cocky and confident when he realises just how much control he has over everyone. He can make them do whatever he wants. He can make them like him, he can make them give him good marks in school when he didn't bother to try, he can make them be nice to Raven.
And then I wonder how long it took for this heady feeling to pass and for him to understand the humanity in each person and realise that he doesn't really want to control anyone after all.
And how easily it could have gone a different way.
#the whole idea of growing up as a telepath is just fascinating!#i should be clear I have no idea about the comics backstory - this is pure speculation based on the films#charles xavier is fascinating#like there must have been a point where he decided he wanted to be liked for who he genuinely is#or at least as much of his true self as he was prepared to show to everyone#where the cheap successes lose their shine#but it could so easily have been different#it could have gone to his head and changed him forever#so that he saw himself as above everyone else#separate from those he could influence and control#(kinda like my old boss - and he doesn't have telepathy as an excuse)#until he doesn't really see himself as part of the human race#what then if he met Erik?#Would he have led the charge?#would he have seen Erik as an equal or just a more powerful tool to manipulate#charles xavier#x men#x-men#x men movies#x men meta#charles xavier meta#headcannon

One thing I find interesting about the rashomon job is that everyone starts off their story by establishing that they had the perfect plan. Clearly they had all put a lot of time and thought into it and they all had a lot of time in advance to plan their heist, except for Eliot. He had to pull his whole plan out of thin air in under 24 hours and it almost worked too! His plan was just as, if not more successful than everyone else's (except for maybe Parker's since she's the only one who actually got her hands on the dagger.) Idk I just think it's a great testament to his quick thinking and ability to improvise.
#leverage#Eliot Spencer#parker#alec hardison#Sophie Devereaux#Nate ford#the rashomon job#my sister and I were talking about how his acting skills are severely underappreciated and it got me thinking about this#like he had no time to prepare for this roll and yet here he is#pulling of a successful grift fooling Sophie a professional grifter#and everyone else around him#i mean sure he didn't really talk to anybody for very long but i still think it's pretty impressive for such a last minute thing

I am feeling great hearing that Keyleth's intel is reporting that Rexxentrum sounds like it's about to devolve into chaos with Dwendal evidently on death's door and the Assembly is about to eat itself from the inside following the Vanguard's movement, considering I was presuming that was going to be some significant fallout, but also, rip Caleb and his virtuous idealism for the Empire lmao.
#it's very much not his fault. succession crisis plus the main consultant institution to the monarch is gonna do that anywhere.#SO funny though. hope you are prepared to recontextualize what you thought the rest of your fucking life was gonna be babey lmao#critical role#cr spoilers#but fr. what's oliver schreiber up to. he's gotta be having a fucking conniption.#I did start a thing with him and dairon having a smoke on a rooftop I should finish that lmao#it was gonna be a much larger thing lmao but like. with what time.#but also would be very funny if this was a theoden situation with dwendal. like are you good dude you aren't *that* old#weren't you looking into necromancy like ten years ago. blink twice is ludinus is slowly poisoning your wine.

disco elysium written in the brothers karamazov style and the brothers karamazov written in disco elysium style
#disco elysium#the brothers karamazov#DMITRI: - “Look at me‚ look closely: right here‚ do you see‚ right here a horrible dishonor is being prepared.”#PERCEPTION (Easy: Success): - As he says “right here‚” your brother strikes himself on the chest with his fist‚ and with such a strange look#CONCEPTUALISATION (Medium: Failure): - He is speaking of his heart.#i was originally planning to keep the original line in which the narrator correctly guesses mitja is pointing at a literal place (a pocket)#but during the trial aleksei says he initially thought dmitri metaphorically speaking of his heart so that's a failed check for him

the homelander trump analogy stuff is such a tragic writing choice but I'm more just pissed they are trying to claim this was always the planned angle with homelander's character when it's Very obviously something they came up with writing S3. like why not just admit that. why you lying to me. about something so dumb too.
#everything post s2 i think is something they didn't actually have planned in the beginning i feel like#most character arcs conclude in s2 because it seems they were kind of preparing to get the axe#and Homelander's character arc esepcially concludes in s2! and that's not to say seeing them dig him out of that hole#narrative-wise isn't interesting#but it's so shitty to claim he was always a trump thing instead of like#... a vaguely successful representation of us imperialism and nationalism#stormfront fit well into that reading as well#us nationalism isn't especially bothered with being in bed with the nazis and vought being an operation papet clip sort of thing was like#thematically fitting#and then in s3 they started doing more reactionary stuff with present day politics/trump and like......#bro you're dating yourself so bad 😑#got all the hoes in the club cringing#mcfly.txt#homelander#idk shit about antony starr but the fact he hates this direction is so fair#imagine putting so much into a character just to be made into a bad trump metaphor
