The thing about HotD is that it while it absolutely minimizes the agency and ambition of both Rhaenyra and Alicent, this is specifically used to glorify Rhaenyra and frame her as righteous while condemning Alicent and framing her lacking. That's the key difference in both their textual portrayals that has directly led to 90% of the fandom hailing Rhaenyra as the second coming of Christ while spewing the most hateful vitriol at Alicent just for existing. But y'all are not prepared for that conversation.
#hotd#alicent hightower#pro alicent hightower#anti hotd#I feel like lots of people get the first part (that it strips them off their agency and doesn't allow them to WANT power or revenge;#instead they have to be Good Women Who Always Want Peace)#but don't really understand how the show actually attempts to DO with that#how it uses it to vilify Alicent so badly. She only exists as their special snowflake Rhaenyra's negative foil#they've managed to completely change the character from grrm's books BUT ALSO completely misunderstand how medieval women#actually wielded power and what misogyny at that time would have actually looked like (spoiler: absolutely nothing like this)#anti rhaenyra targaryen#(not really? I just don't trust her fans because some of the hate they've sent me is genuinely deranged)#also:#yes 90% of the fandom is TB and despise Alicent. We know this via surveys conducted by fans and the official marketing team.#y'all need to stop acting like the underdogs here and acknowledge that your Rhaenyra is adored by virtually everyone#(which is OKAY. Just acknowledge it)#you need to also acknowledge how many female characters have been vilified (Alicent) diminished (Laena) or outright erased (Nettles)#to prop up this one entitled white woman#i love rhaenyra from the book and will fight grrm at the shitty way he's portrayed her#but this glorified Good Woman girlboss from the show is driving me nuts

Gantober #6 - Eyeful
I have SO many frames that are just. Ganondorf's insane eyeliner game.
(It's the "drawing eyes in the corner of my highschool notebook" part of me rearing its ugly head I suppose u_u tho actually it's not just for that there's a thematic reason, but also his eyes are insanely fun to draw and drawing eyes mean not drawing anything else so that's a win win in my book babeyyy!!!)
#gantober#ganondorf#oot#oot ganondorf#my art#thralls of power#animatic project#do you feel Judged yet#also while looking through the frames looking for a nice one I remembered that#while I did fully commit to the “he only has that silly thigh high knife and magic” because it's a good visual shortcut about being#highly skilled and adaptable but also kind of an underdog in the situation in spite of being! you know! ganondorf!#(also the knife is an important prop which sounds insane but it is)#but honestly both him and impa can both go to hell with their shortass weapons with zero range#it's the opposite of what you want to create dynamic fight sequences!!#trying to make fighters appear skilled AND cool AND not have the fight realistically end in two seconds#is hard!!!#also ganondorf has extremely not the build to make him realistically evade weapons he's a huge target in full armor#so yeah Headaches were had because they both decided to show up with toothpicks for weapons thanks guys#anyway!!!

objectively hilarious that vivinos's youtube channel is basically build on yuri horror/angst content (its basically almost always two girls killing or dying in the most fucked up ways possible) but the first time a video centered on guys is made (cherry bitch club) its literally just fanservice. yeah flip those conventions LOL
#bc usually the guys get to be the hashtag deep angsty ones (esp in fandom shit) and girls are cutsie yuri fanservice and such#obvs more have come out since though. that are actually serious and fucked up. bc of alien stage#and some horror stuff happens in cherry bitch club too but mostly just hitting the same plotbeats as pink bitch club. but hornier#so. its fanservice. which is not a bad thing#its not for me personally obvs but i do have to give it props for subverting expectations so heavily#but im still the biggest fan of the fucked up tragic yuri <3 beloved is my favorite i think#as far as one off videos go i mean. you all know i have alien stage brainrot

I like showing my friends progress of whatever I'm working on and then just skittering off because I have responsibilities I have to take care of.
Like, I'll be on my break and working on something and take a picture to send my friends before going back to work because my break is over. Or I'm working on priming/painting these Bad Batch Loth Cats and I'll just send them progress photos before skittering off to make dinner or take care of my laundry
Most recently it's been these small simplish landscape painting sketches for a set of five! Totally for fun, as pretty much 95% of my projects are lol
#Love dropping progress photos and skittering off#it's so much fun#if y'all haven't noticed yet#my recent fixation is very much star wars#the paintings are all references to characters#props to you if you lnow who's which one!#The Bad Batch#tbb#tbb tech#tbb hunter#tbb crosshair#tbb wrecker#tbb echo#tbb omega#i know those last three aren't easy to see in the stack photo but they're there I promise#Plo Koon#Obi-Wan Kenobi#Commander Fox#Captain Rex#Commander Wolffe#painting sketches#planning sketches#works in progress#my art#for funsies#i love them all#they deserve to be happy

i already know what the story behind the picture is but please explain it anyway we need to educate the masses
oh my god thank you for enabling me ive been thinking about this all day. regarding this post i made yesterday and this classic image (which i actually just found out was posted seven years ago today!)
basically as can be read in the post at BigFest in 2016 somebody had what i believe was a fan-made prop based on the laptop from season 2 of gravity falls. alex hirsch attended this convention and decided to type in the password to the laptop. we never learned the password in the show so lots of people were excited to find out!
a HUGE thing to note here is that journal 3 was still months away from releasing and in fact while a couple pages had been released as promotional material it was still being worked on until, like... gosh i wanna say may is when they finally started printing it? don't quote me on that though my point is that this was all taking place pre-journal 3 and, therefore, many fans were still operating under the (sensible) impression that the laptop which
had been designed by fiddleford
had been built by fiddleford
had fiddleford's name on it
said "PROPERTY OF F" on it (at this point it had been established through promo images that "F" referred to fiddleford)
was assumed to be fiddleford's by, like, four different main characters
was given to and used by fiddleford following s2e7
fiddleford presumably knew the password to
would also belong to fiddleford. right? i mean logically. logically, guys.
so when alex hirsch revealed that the password had been "STANFORD" all along, people thought that was a little bit... well
of course, a couple months later journal 3 would be published and it would say that the laptop had actually been STANFORD'S, not fiddleford's, and that he had made the password his own name. so technically i lied in my earlier post, there IS a heterosexual explanation for this, but imo it's still bullshit. like sorry i don't believe for a fucking second that stanford "i need to encode all of my messages in multiple ciphers and write in invisible ink" pines would ever make a password as simple as his own name. he wouldve picked like something with six different layers of alternate meanings and also put it through atbash at the VERY least. also as i listed above there is a LOT of evidence which would support the laptop belonging to fiddleford, as opposed to ford, which has this random retcon (and like... some of the computer keys are different colors? i guess?? idk that bit was stupid) as its only supporting evidence.
my theory is that, while writing the show, alex and the other writers had intended for the laptop to belong to fiddleford, but for whatever reason, when they were writing the book, they decided to make it ford's instead. i want to make clear that i DON'T think this swap was motivated by homophobia, or as a reaction to seeing people interpret the password in a gay way. by the time that this photo was taken several promotional journal pages had been released, so it's safe to say that even if they were still adding the finishing touches to the book, it was pretty much in its final stage and in fact might have already started printing (i think the first photos we see of the book itself were posted like a week or two after bigfest). so to assume that there's a correlation there is both unfounded and extremely unlikely.
now, the stargazing scene reprint, on the other hand
#long post#gravity falls#fiddauthor#<- why the fuck not. it's midnight no one can judge me#why are you as a man making your computer password the name of the man you live alone in the woods with#sorry anon i doubt think this is what you had in mind when you said “explain it” LMAO#tales of the wild zeep#uhhh a couple other notes#1. i do not know who made the laptop prop at bigfest. i assumed it was a fan but i wasn't there i really don't know#2. i said may is when they started printing the book but i have literally no source for that#it is a guess based on when promotional photos were being posted#3. i say “fiddleford presumably knew the password to [the laptop]” and i just wanted to explain my reasoning there#basically in s2e10 fiddleford says that he “fixed” the laptop and is shown using it#we also see it at the start of the following episode being used to monitor the activity of the portal#now. i am not a computer engineer. i am mediocre with computers at best.#but based on what i have been told. when you are faced with a password screen. there are two ways to proceed#one way is to reset the computer's hard drive entirely‚ to... “erase its memory” if you will#however this would result in one being unable to access any of the information which had previously been stored there#considering that we see fiddleford using the laptop to monitor the portal's activity i believe that its files must have been intact#so we can rule out resetting as an option#the other way to proceed is by. um. knowing the password. and entering it#so THAT'S why i say that he PRESUMABLY knew the password.#now it's entirely possible that he was able to hack into the laptop or something. he is a mechanical genius and he built it after all#i'm just saying that i think it's far more likely that he just. knew the password.#which is honestly really funny and still kind of gay if you believe the whole “the laptop was actually ford's” thing#why are you as a man telling your computer password to the man you live alone in the woods with when you wont even write it in your diary#fucking apologies for this OCEAN of tags. ive done taxes all day im an adult im allowed to infodump about old hyperfixations as a treat

s/o to my 11th great-grandfather Paul who was a herdsman in Thuringia, and whose son, grandson, and great-grandson all became Lutheran ministers for the same tiny church in the village of Rottleben (population 630 as of 2011)
#my source says he was a herdsman 'at Norwerk' but I learned 'Norwerk' is an archaic German word for 'villa' and is synonymous with 'Schloss#the fact they didn't feel the need to specify WHICH villa or schloss makes me think it was the main one#the Schloss at Rudolstadt is too young to be the one he worked for BUT#it was built over a Renaissance complex that burned down in 1735#so that could be it#anyways props to him for getting his boys those good good educations and equipping them to rise above his station#unfortunately his great-great-grandson went to Zweibrucken where he met some Swiss who turned him Mennonite :/#and then HIS son became Amish rip#wait a few generations and your progeny will return to their Lutheran roots Paul. we appreciate you.#we're Presbyterian now but you don't know what that is. I'll tell you when I see you#genealogy adventures#x

low-coherency rambling in the tags
#the thing about IPL is that‚ at least as far as i see it‚ they've essentially been propagating and encouraging an auteur myth regarding him#which is nothing new or unique to them; i think that people (audiences) naturally want to ascribe some Great Man Theory to everything#it's hard to conceptualize the fact that almost anything that comes from a ''studio'' will be the product of collaboration#people naturally want to personify things and attach a human face to what they like#and studios (whether game or whatever else) will indulge this by generally seeming to pick one or maybe two people (often men)#to essentially be the main ''face'' or ''spokesperson'' for the product. it's branding.#and it has an effect even if people obviously are aware that someone isnt the ONLY person who's hands touch a work#i see it in the way people take this very personal parasocial tone in how they talk about the creators they like#which is just a subset of the problem of parasociality in general but in this case i mean how they basically put these people on a pedestal#because they seem them as singularly responsible for creating Thing They Liked because of the aforementioned spokesmanship#i've seen it in how people talk about (and talk to) j sawyer and chris avellone as if they're singularly responsible for fallout#anthony burch and borderlands 2. christian linke and arcane#robert kurvitz and disco elysium (but to be very clear im not saying that makes cutting him out of his own intellectual property acceptable#fucking i don't know.... jeff kaplan and overwatch lmao#and very much with dybowski and pathologic. like the kind of memes i saw people make about him and the personal way they'd refer to him#BUT that pretty much all stopped after 2021 or so at least in the fandom spaces i saw#because i suppose people realized that whether those rumors and allegations were true or not that they did not really know this person#no matter how much they liked ''his'' game. and that he might not be a good person at all.#which is good. i think people should take that kind of ambivalence by default instead of getting parasocially attached to anyone#especially to one lead figure out of an entire studio#and then winding up distraught and disappointed when it turns out their fave did something bad#like be distraught for victims sure. but don't tell yourself you understand this person because their fiction spoke to you#and you won't wind up feeling personally betrayed.#i'm rambling big time but basically i hope people start taking this view more#because among other things. putting these people on pedestals and singling them out as auteurs gives them social power#which allows some of them to engage in the awful behavior that leaves fans feeling betrayed in the first place#and i hope that studios and creators stop leaning into it too#if it really is true that dybowski is barely involved with the IP anymore then IPL should say that.#don't prop him up as the face just because he's the one everyone knows#maybe they think it'll get backlash if anyone but him is said to be writing the game because of how much they leaned into him as the auteur

Absolutely fascinating behavior by the public tonight
#had a woman (I hope? a tourist?) loudly declaring how#if there was anyone with a megaphone shouting their political beliefs she was going to lose it#which um. I’m. ma’am do u know where you are#and so many unhinged convos heard in passing#and then just had a near-fight on the metro#bc some dumbass white guy responded to a drunk/high dude hassling him with stupid macho shit#all ‘’do you want to go outside?’’ (we are on a moving subway train) ‘’let’s take this outside’’ (we are on a moving subway train)#also bc the train was so packed#I was clinging to the top bar with my fingertips and this poor woman#took one look at me#one look at the bar#sighed#and then hopped up to grab it#and basically hung there on her tippy toes for the whole trip 😭😭😭#props and also lord we need better transit#personal

I was looking at some of the drivers' profiles on IMDb and I did NOT realize they listed f1 like this:
The fact that its listed as TV series, the way the races are listed as episodes, the way the drivers are credited as playing "self" THE WAY IT HAS A RATING LMAO
#'wow this is a rly long tv series i wonder when theyre gonna wrap it up'#props to you if you know which drivers these are but i think its not that difficult#and the drivers have bios and trivia and height listed etc#the virgin seb having a one paragraph bio vs the chad alonso having 17#i just had no idea this existed#i just wanted to check how they were listed for dts and now im like ????#also#why only 9.4 i wanna know#joke but:#'wait its a tv show?'

not gonna lie the idea of an oc incarnation is extra appealing because, at least to me, 13-14-15 seem to have this tangible character continuation whereas 12 feels so isolated at times so I'd love to have a 13 that's a more direct continuation
But to loop back to the topic of 'voice', trying to think of actors that feel right seems borderline impossible
#;out of time.#like. I understand why 13 feels like such a reset. its a new era its a new showrunner its a new jumping on point#and props to russell for making 14 feel like SUCH a continuation of 13#15 seems like he might have shades of 12 which makes me VERY happy but I digress#but I am also. endlessly fascinated in exploring regeneration through incarnations. like on a narrative level. you know???#maybe the 'tism is 'tisming idk#but then its like. I am having such a hard time envisioning an incarnation that follows 12 through that lens#like an actor (or actress) I can look at and just go 'That's it. I can hear 'I am the Doctor' through their mouth'#like I can think of like one or two but idk if thats just recency bias at work so I'm just aaaaaaa#anyway Im gonna go play some games to reset the ol' brain I'm lurking tho

There is no way I will EVER believe Dean Winchester was supposed to say, "and I you." There's no way they would've written the line that way even if it HAD been written. It's so grammatically awkward out of his mouth that it makes me laugh when I see it. I'm not against the ship, but the delusion about 15x18 is unending.
honestly...yeah. i have to agree with this. it's a strange and somewhat awkward line of dialogue anyway but it is a super strange line of dialogue to attempt to give, of all people, dean winchester.
listen, i am not anti d*stiel. i'm at the point where i have no strong feelings either way for the ship itself. it mostly just makes me feel a bit bored. i believe cas was definitely in love with dean. i believed that long before he said it out loud. it was pretty obvious. i think there are different ways to interpret dean's feelings - and yes, one of those ways is that he was in love with him too. it's very possible. ultimately i just don't care enough to put any real work or feelings into that ship in any way.
but dean would not have said that.
it is so stunningly out of character that i'm genuinely boggled as to how so many people are just like ''oh good. now we have confirmation. this sounds right. this is a fact now.''
if people want to believe dean reciprocates, i get that. of course people prefer their ship to be a mutual thing. i totally understand that. i have zero problem with that. but there's just. no way dean winchester would have said it in that specific way. unless he was very suddenly and momentarily possessed by the ghost of an old english gentleman.
which, to be fair, does sound like the kind of thing that would happen to him, but that would be a weird time for it to happen.
#i will say that the overall mood of just general acceptance that this line is a fact does validate my theory that the current spn fandom#has literally no grasp on dean winchester as a character#which is sad because they have tried really really hard to replace canon dean with watered down fanon dean (a dud if i ever saw one)#and unfortunately given how widespread this is.... that appears to be working#which means that the only dean who will be remembered is the dean they made up in their heads and that's unfortunate#because that dude is terribly dull#it's sort of like they took his corpse and embalmed him and preserved him real nice#and then propped him up at the back of a party so they could make him their puppet and talk for him#and are trying to con people into believing this was always who he was#which sounds like a great horror movie but i know that's not what they're going for#BUT ANYWAY#.....also there's a very real chance that this was just a translation error#and maybe the line was just something like ''i love you too'' but was translated into ''and i you''#and some portions of the fandom are just being too literal which.......i mean. yeah. i can see that#asks#anon#spn fandom discourse#spn discourse

every day I remember that this fandom simply does not care about autistic people and, much like every other fucking thing I experience as an autistic person, the concept of it being a collective found family becomes increasingly alien to me. love this place.
#we really just can’t win I fucking hate it here#like this is my special interest. this is my community. I’ve met so many people through it that ended up becoming lifelong friends#I’ve been here for almost ten years and it’s meant everything to me for ten years. it’s kept me going through so much shit.#it’s more than just a show and more than just a fandom and it’s one of the best things I’ve ever been apart of#and like I didn’t realize I was autistic until like late 2021. I didn’t even realize SPN was my special interest until then either#I didn’t realize JACK was my special interest. but knowing that he is autistic means so much to me#and its meant so much to other autistic ppl in the fandom. somebody at MomentoCon even mentioned it to Alex last weekend for fucks sake .#it’s real and it’s special and it’s important to us but#but no we can’t have that. make him a fucking baby. toss every interesting thing about his character into a fucking volcano#and relegate him to being a fucking prop for everybody else.#I don’t know how else to tell you this but you are literally infantilizing an autistic person. you are being ableist. intentionally or not.#and the way you all seem to just. idk. double down on your own ableism? or excuse it?#or literally ignore autistic ppl who try to point out how ableist and weird your behavior towards an autistic character is?#it’s a lot of things. it’s so many terrible things and terrible feelings. but above all it’s disheartening.#it hurts to know that even in this space where everyone is family and everyone belongs. I’m still on the outside looking in.#I’m still not /really/ a part of everything else. it’s a horrible feeling and I don’t wish anyone to ever go through with it#but maybe you fucking should. maybe then you’d realize what you’re doing. or maybe you won’t. maybe I’m screaming into the void again.#which I literally always am w this topic anyways. nothing but screaming into a vast empty void that’s supposed to be my big special family#but whatever I guess.#spn#supernatural#spn fandom#spn family#spn famdom#jack kline#autistic jack kline#tfw2.0#destiel#sam and dean#castiel
