-"Start Here" by Caitlyn Siehl

#berserk #griffith #guts #griffguts #berserk manga #words #my posts #i have soooo many quotes that remind me of them that haunt me im going insane #i post more of them eventually #for now this is all the display of mental illness yall get #idk how to tag lol #guts berserk #griffith berserk #this very obviously is refering to how guts percieves griffith and the immediate change in his stance when he saw him again as the human #that he loved and cared for very deeply to the point that he forgot that this was actually “the monster” he had sought to kill all that time #im not at all implying anything abt griffith's nature changing #just about hoe you can never truly see someone as simply “monstruous” if you love them hard enough #how***#SPELLING MISTAKES MY MORTAL ENEMY

true detective: the long bright dark / disco elysium: jamais vu (derealization)

#in my true elysium slash disco detective universe forever #i have talked about this already but its funny that this quote was marty's breaking point. who has not felt about their hometown like this?#rust does not know this city well however which makes the feeling different but somehow still universal to the experience of growing up #in places that have to change to survive (be it bc of its economy or bc its simply outdated)#but the town in TT s1 appears to be decaying. at least to rust #imo one of the best shots and most defining of the show is that of the church abandoned and left to rot in nature with the factories #in the background. past and progress shown in one shot you know #but with the eps passing i would say that it is the people and their humanity that is decaying instead of the town #after all the town seems quite alright in terms of infrastructures #but the description of it as a jungle really does fit very well #both with the landscapes shown and the animals (men) lurking where you least expect them #true detective #rust cohle #marty hart #mine

also like i partially found out i might be intersex because i was looking at trans stuff and there was like "(however many) months on t and finally seeing some bottom growth" and like pictures of t-dicks and i was like.... um.... that's kind of just what my clit looks like anyways. so i was like "hey google give me a quick rundown on this" and learned what clitoromegaly was and then i was like. hm. intersex resources. and it's like a sign? symptom? side-effect? of certain intersex conditions

#i mean like pcos runs in the mums side of my family but i dont have all the symptoms of that #i do also have like. more hair?? than the average afab person #like dark hair on my stomach and chest and back #and my face. whats disappointing about the face hair is that it isnt enough to be able to grow a beard #so i cant even fuck with gender that way #tagging as nsft just because of like genital mention #genital mention #nsft #shoutout to transmascs on t who show their t-dicks on the internet it was really helpful #also i dont know how to describe it but like. my natural face shape is kind of masculine??#like it would be plausible for a cis amab perisex man to have my face without looking feminine #if you get what im saying??#if it sounds like im reinforcing sex or gender essentialism please say i am struggling to find words #unshoutout to the boys in primary school who made fun of me for having hair under my arms and starting a whole decade of insecurity-#-about having hair on my body lmao #for the record i dont think certain face shapes are indicative of gender and all im just going by like. patterns?? in afab vs. amab faces #also not that i think afab vs. amab is the entire categorisation of human sex characteristics but um. working with what vocab i have here #i think what also really kicked it off. was relating to a fair few experiences intersex people have socially #particularly intersex ppl who were afab and faced a lot of pressure to make their bodies conform to feminine beauty standards #and it was like.... oh lol.... my mum did that to me!!#it comes from her own internalised shit bc she has pcos (idk if she identifies as intersex even tho she could if she wanted) but still.#dont project that onto a 10 yr old lmao. she keeps buying me hair removal products #ALSO floored by an experience i have. in which apparently half my friends dont feel pressure to shave their legs #because the hair on their legs is like. light and thin and barely visible and i was like?? huh??#what do you MEAN your legs don't look like your brothers/fathers if you dont shave??#im starting to think they dont shave their arms. their arms might just naturally not have a load of hair #i dont shave my arms though. cannot be bothered with that and also like. why would i do that #also you know that like. happy trail i think its called?? on “men's” stomachs??#yeah i have that naturally yeah thats right im naturally sexy #if you cant tell i am putting “girls” “mens” “boys” “womens” etc. in quotes to indicate that is just the normal society way of saying it

The Vibes of my fanfic through songs

An ongoing mini series of lyrics from songs that relate to the fanfic im currently writing. The fic is still unpublished but i am working on it :)

From Eden by Hozier

Babe There's something wretched about this. Something so precious about this. Where to begin? Babe There's something broken about this. But I might be hoping about this. Oh, what a sin

Honey, you're familiar like my mirror years ago Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on his sword Innocence died screaming, honey, ask me, I should know

I slithered here from Eden just to hide outside your door

It seems to me that every relationship (platonic or romantic) that Tamlin finds himself in starts because he’s curious about them, drawn to them. Rhysand, Lucien, Feyre. Maybe it will end well this time

#arson yaps #a court of bones and dust #i LOVE hozier euueueueueuue #i think about the music video for from eden a lot #acobad #my fanfic #pro tamlin #We dont know much about how Lucien and Tamlin became friends but i feel assumptions can be made #Rhysand says he sought Tamlin out. doesn’t that sound like curiosity and the thrill of the forbidden?#Feyres human and wild nature intrigued Tamlin so much. He became curious to why she became who she was. what pushed to to this point #Anyway #This fic is not romance centric. Its 99% platonic but the parasites have been influencing me to maybe write some romance #I mean. theres an illyrian throuple who will be making an appearance. one of the side ocs is very romantic #but the parasites are calling for romance between catrin (oc) and Tamlin and like maybe #it may turn out slowburn strangers to friends to lovers #dont quote me on that tho im just yapping in the tags per usual

There can never be equality, so long the heavens have decided together with the darkness in the heart of men, such idealistic desire will never come to fruition.

Dum de dum dum

Gonna add max tags and max characters to each cause who cares

#the limit to the number of characters is 140 and I can’t use the same tag twice so this may take time. also I can’t add commas easily so sor #ry for the run on sentences. I doubt anyone will read all this. it’s gonna take a while to write. maybe I just keyboard smash. but that seem #s unoriginal or cheating. and I also wanna use chat gpt but that feels kinda lame? it’s frowned on so much and I don’t wanna be frowned on a #nd idk. I guess I care about what strangers on the internet care about more than myself. which I shouldn’t. I’ll be better tho. anyway i ams #going to be rambling a bit here. but I don’t care. probably no one will read this anyways. maybe I can try some constrained writing prompts.#what with only 140 characters. people usually write a lot of stuff and better under constraints. cause humans be weird sometimes. why on ear #th did I do this to myself???? maybe I will smash!!! agdkdgakfhs!!!! SHDOAGSKFHSJ!!!! bleaugholofomodowopoidk!!! weeepeedeepeedooooooo!! idk #this is boring. I’m only 8 tags in and I’m tired. who knows why I do these things. the mind is a mysterious place. who knows why we do wha w #e do. …. …. idk man. I was gonna say some more stuff about the mind and how weird it is. but I forgor ): now I feel a bit s #ad. but maybe I will remember before the end of this…. spaces make it easier so #spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaceeeeeeesssssss. lol #gonna copy paste 138 spaces in a row and copy paste. then add number at end to make each unique… then this would go so fast…. but is #that cheating? I mean I put these rules on myself. only I would really care if I broke them. but it feels wrong to #so maybe I’ll get this done naturally. with a whole bunch’s spaces to replace a comma. it’ll go so much faster. (:#tag 15. halfway there. goin faster than I thought it would. time flies or something ig. I have an idea #imma try to say all the copypastas I kinda know by memory cause who fucking cares: firstly first. I am gonna do the one about the fitnes #“the fitness gram pace test is a multilevel test that involves many things. like running and sit-ups and push ups and jumping jack eh idk #now for rick roll copypasta. not a real rickroll tho cause there is warning so it’s all cool. I think I’ll stop early like line six or I d k #you know the rules and so do I! a full commitment is what I’m looking for. you know the rules and I do too. never goin to give you up or let #you down or dessert you or anything like that. (I’m jokingly doing it wrong. I actually know them alr. cause been roled a bit.) gon stop now #I know just the starting quote kinda of bee movie. but non else. idk what to say. am tired. is late so idk. idk #this post is taking way to long. I’m on like the second day typing it out ):. I don’t know how much more I can take…. but I must per #servere!!! if I add spaces. then it’ll be done. much quicker.

" She was running in nature, searching for the silence and peace. She loved to feel the touch of the grass under his bare feet, to feel the breeze of the wind through her hair.

She loved how the sun's rays crept through the branches of the tree and warmed her body. She was happy, she felt full of life, she was finally at home for the first time in a long time. "

im not sure if it is meta or deeply ironic that a person would use AI for an assignment in a Critical AI course...

#i was like. this sounds pretty good but also basic #and then they fucking used 'rich tapestry' which if you didnt know is now a meme #since the use of it in college students' essays is a big red flag for AI usage #ofc that fucks over everyone who just naturally has a big vocabulary but...#several AI checkers I used on the assignment said yeah that shits AI #a few actually said it was human and I'm inclined to think because the post actually makes sense it might at least have some oversight #ofc they could've just like. put the whole article the assignment is about into chat gpt and ask it to make a summary post #another thing that tipped me off is that they didnt mention any other articles or used other quotes #but did use a very particular word in a particular context that the article did which they couldve easily quoted instead #anti ai

does Lorien bringing Sheridan back to life count as artificial selection or natural selection?

#who are queue? what do queue want?#for once it’s not an incorrect quote #babylon 5 #lorien #first ones #john sheridan #natural selection #artificial selection #this is really bothering me now #because artificial selection is chosen by humans #so would the language itself have adapted (pun intended) to include aliens too?#and therefore first ones?#what about Delenn’s role in his resurrection?

Sometimes we will write something and it becomes immediately apparent within a few paragraphs that we are the kind of person who reads philosophy textbooks for fun

#we speak #and we dont. know how to edit it out #because in hindsight it is also obvious that we have also based our magic system on esoteric philosophical concepts #anyways if we write something and we've completely lost you within a handful of paragraphs #then it may be bc we spend our spare time reading about a bunch of guys argue about the nature of humanity #and then we're boiling down like half a dozen different conflicting philosophical concepts and making it into a magic system #every time we do this it also makes us significantly harder to talk to if you are an actual person who hasnt been Doing This #and then we have to reread things if we want to quote them because our memory is holey and shared between us and at least one Beast

*The aftermath of the storm in "Princess Andy"* Crewmate One: Did you ever think it would end like this? Crewmate Two: The mad sorcerer with an army of sharks doing his bidding is a surprise.

#source: the road to el dorado #(that movie has some problematic elements that need to be discussed but this is not the time and place and besides its just a good quote)#ANYWAY #I'm gonna lightly go off in tags because Princess Andy has a whole cinematic universe in my head atp #“Why are they calling him a sorcerer?” Because what *else* would they call him?#This man may have been born human (for all we know) but he gains some distinctly *in*human qualities and strongly implied supernatural #abilities #specifically #abilities that are tied to the natural world-sharks #in a lot of cultures that would automatically gain one some kind of new title that is either reverent or feared #Sorcerer. Faerie. Witch. Demon.#Hell even in the song they say “In fear and awe they called him devil they called him god.”#AND #the whole song's title is about *his* new title: Princess Andy #anyway yeah #the blasting company #princess andy #the petrojvic blasting company #princess andy the blasting company #the blasting company princess andy #ramblings
