Thinking abt how Sandro sits in a very childish way (legs crossed rocking back and forth, open, vulnerable) and how Sand (carefree) sits with his knees up to his chin, sometimes hiding his face IN his knees, and wraps his arms around his legs. Protected. Cautious. An attempt at comfort.

Thinking abt how that shows their personalities and relationships. Thinking so badly abt my sons.

tonight at work someone didn't push a pallet into a trailer bc he was waiting for me to come out of it first. and he explained this to the cute manager by saying "I'm waiting for CJ to come out." so I was already chortling to myself, and the cute manager was giggling too. so of course I spread my arms theatrically and told him, "Ta-da! I'm bisexual."

in moments like these we do need to ask ourselves. does it even matter to dinah if she’s the best fighter in the world. is that what motivates her. is she at a point in her life where trying to prove herself and her abilities makes sense. is this not something we’ve already covered.

People hate on Light for many many (mostly valid) reasons, but you can't deny that he's so incredibly organized and so determined to handle most things by himself that being his admin or his receptionist or his assistant would probably be a dream

Mihoyo may have forgotten Su is just as big a nerd as Bronya and Kosma, but I sure haven’t.

Really feels like missed comedic potential though. Like, maybe they could’ve had Su desperately trying to hide that he actually gets Kosma and Bronya’s references, but he keeps having to translate for them, so everyone else is slowly catching on to Su (meanwhile Kevin knows damn well about Su’s mech phase and is desperately trying not to laugh at him). Or maybe have Su be like one of those anime nerds that was really into Akira and other older anime and tries to bond with them over it, but he hasn’t seen anything that was made in like the past 15 years so all his references are incredibly outdated.

Or for other occupation related humor, he could just have extensive knowledge of poisons and dangerous chemicals that just comes up in casual conversation and concerns everyone else around him. Or give him a sorta back and forth with Vill-V on what would or wouldn’t kill a man, but in like the most casual/deadpan tone

I haven’t really thought about this point well enough to articulate it well, but you can derive comedy from someone just being enthusiastically nice. The best example I can think of this is Tanjiro from Demon Slayer

Idk, it just feels like Mihoyo just doesn’t really know what to do with Su a lot of the time

sorry i keep sending anons in parts i just get more ideas the longer i think abt it but like. maybe im bias as the oldest but bela complaining about her younger siblings doesnt seem. as bad to me? like i feel like most of her complaints and insults even just have to do with them not pulling their own weight, like I’d get frustrated too when people just. don’t care about something you’re all responsible for, its like they don’t respect your time or effort that you have to put in to pick up the slack. I call my siblings stupid too when we all get in trouble for something that needs to get done but I’m the only one doing it. fr a lose lose situation, but you can’t make someone care, yk? especially because “you have to set an example” “i’m trusting you to delegate!” and then your siblings are like “you arent <parent>” I KNOWWWWWWWW

Nah, cause I 100% get that, and that was kind of what I meant. The way Bela says the lines is very much a "eldest sister tired of her younger sisters' shit" type of vibe.

Bela gives the vibe of an eldest child that really tries to be perfect for her mother and be the one to set examples and lead, but her sisters just... don't respect her like that. Sure, Bela is their older sister, to some extent they respect that, but she isn't their mother, and they aren't going to treat her like she is just because she tells them what to do sometimes.

"You can't make us do anything! You aren't Mother!"

And then Bela ends up in trouble, or they all end up in trouble, because she couldn't make her sisters do something.

I think she cares for her sisters, she doesn't hate them by any real means, but after 70+ years she's just tired them not pulling their weight one way or another and everything falling back onto her.

oh my goddd i just searched something on google and theyre experimenting with ai generated answers to questions being pinned to the top of the results. i just know this is going to spread so much misinformation

[eileennatural]

saw a tim scott ad on behalf of the republican running for senate for PA that made me mad for two reasons 1. Please stay out of pennsylvania business, tim. 2. The ad was mostly focused on how bob casey is "racist" for not supporting school choices. Which yeah I can see how you might get there but only if you've never spent more than 5 minutes thinking abt the issue. And this is important bc philly has lots of charyer schools ofc. yes charter schools position themselves as an alternative to the overtly racist public education system (housing segregation -> low property values in urban neighborhoods-> underfunded schools) but they are not under any circumstances a solution to the problem they're barely even a bandaid. But honestly I can't even get into it i wrote a 20 ish page paper on this my junior year of college which I actually presented at a conference in philly lol

[chamerionwrites]

Like I do FULLY recognize that this is my own Issues talking (and talking in a tone that is a bit overwrought, to boot), which is why I am neither adding it to the post in question nor making this post rebloggable. But I do also think it’s worth pointing out that the space and safety in which younger siblings learn that the sky will not crash in if they act a little annoying and/or self-centered (and/or have a healthy respect for their own personal boundaries and needs and desires!) is sometimes (often?) DIRECTLY correlated with like. The collective familial blood-sacrifice of eldest children*

*or, sometimes, whichever non-eldest child gets picked to occupy That Role

[nerenda]

Sometimes I remember that Jamil is 17 years old and has had a job looking after Kalim basically 24/7 for years, his childhood spent making sure this other child stays alive and safe from assassination attemps while also managing their mundane things. And while I refuse to believe there weren't adults involved while Kalim lived in the Asim household, that is still absolutely an undue pressure to place onto a child - not to mention the whole child labor aspect of it.

And every time I dwell on it I'm just all

But also I want to punch every single adult involved who decided that this was a totally good and a normal idea and there's nothing wrong whatsoever with this arrangement.

I think you're a brilliant writer and I hope you don't retire anytime soon

shout out to whoever it was that lit nick fuentes' house on fire yesterday and doxxed his mother I think you deserve like free everything for life for doing us all a service

[hydrachea]

big titty goth Wriothesley and pastel goth Sigewinne who helps him with his makeup even though he actually knows how to do it himself, it's just another one of their bonding times I miss wriosige

A wonderful mental image! And one I could see too, since she seems interested in makeup to the point where there's stuff on billboards about it.

Sure, Wriothesley can do his own makeup... But Sigewinne lacks people to test things on down in Meropide and there's a nice sort of intimacy to letting someone else do your makeup (even more so letting them try stuff out on you).

Cielo you saying Kaeya likes older sibling types in a gross way is like strapping a ticking time bomb on me personally i'm about to Combust🙏🏻

Finally the Horrors i endured will come in handy for nastiness.

ANONFHDKSJAK

i feel similarly 🙏

he’s the type that likes elder siblings bc he looooves how easy they are to rile up!! i think he has a touch of corruption in him too like if you’re responsible, he wants to see if he can push that or corrupt you a bit. and also. i think he wouldn’t mind being babied or talked down to a little. kinda gets him going. like yeah boss him around and lecture him and fuss over him, he kinda loves it. freak.

[danothan]

starting to think the reason i haven’t been burnt out by the relentless angst of dc is bc i’m sitting over here in my high palace of halbarry. it’s not my fault that they’re happy
