i hope everyone knows that the little boxing scene in episode one IS probably my favorite scene in the whole show. there is so much to love about it. this scene hooked me on the show single-handedly (and it made me think they were already in love/canon, until my brother told me they weren’t).

the banter is so much fun!!! i love all their interactions throughout the series, but this one is just So good. charles is such a silly goose!!!! i love him jumping around and messing with edwin physically. i love edwin being so comfortable, smiling with his teeth and looking exasperated but it’s completely overshadowed by his amusement and obvious care for charles.

i love how edwin says he shouldn’t have to learn to hit things because charles will always be there, i love how it sets up their dynamic. i love how edwin gives in anyway and absolutely SUCKS at it. i love how niceys charles is about it. i love how close they are the whole scene. i love these boys

#it’s so fun seeing how they were pre-crystal #i like seeing them in episode one when they’re alone and just seem SO comfortable with each other #it’s so adorable & really drives home how long they’ve known each other #i need to rewatch it again #and again #and again and again and again #they’re so silly #dead boy detectives #dbda #charles rowland #edwin payne #payneland

Pretty proud of how far I’ve come this year

#I have struggled with crippling anxiety for a long time and this year I really wanted to overcome it and become more independent #like #I used to be absolutely terrified of leaving the house #things like driving and going places alone would make me have crazy panic attacks #but this year I’ve done a lot and I’ve overcome a lot and gained so much confidence #I’ve flown across the country twice this year #driven on some pretty intimidating roads like the highway and freeway #gone on solo bike rides for miles through the woods #eaten tons of new foods #I know those sorts of things might seem very simple and normal everyday things #but I have ocd and it can make my anxiety pretty bad #it can also make a lot of my fears rather irrational #likes like trying new foods and going new places are genuinely intimidating for me #bc it makes me feel like I’m going to die lol #but I’ve done ALOT of things I was scared to do #I’ve come along way #and it may seem like boring basic stuff to some people #but considering I couldn’t leave my house two years ago without panicking to the point of losing feeling in my hands and feet #I think I did pretty good lol #I’m starting to feel like a confident person again #I’m starting to feel like I can LIVE again #and it’s pretty nice #just wanted to write this out somewhere lol that’s all #maybe it will be helpful for anyone struggling in similar ways #to see that improvement is possible #lol anyways happy November #mae rambles

the stupid ass "near is 12-13!!! 😱" shit annoys me so disproportionately because it is. just. it's so obviously and straightforwardly Nonsense. for me it falls into the category of "not only have you clearly not read the manga, but it seems unlikely you paid attention to the anime, either." sadly some people are just so fucking stupid. it cannot be helped.

#neallopost #my disproportionate annoyance is being worsened by the fact that it seems people at work are trying to drive me to madness #as quickly as fucking possible. i'm so irritable every night rn that i have to angrily bike when i get home or i stew in hatred the whole #night long which is NOT how i like to live my life. because i love being happy #on that note it's time for me to go write:3

people acting as if laios can Do No Wrong and infantilizing him because he is autistic are annoying as hell. especially because laios belongs to my favorite genre of character: "person who desperately wants friends and deep relationships because they're lonely, and while part of their problems stem from people not wanting to understand them and refusing to meet them where they are, they also genuinely come across in a way where you Completely Understand why others can get turned off from them"

#.txt #dungeon meshi #laios #like. okay. i think its a very autistic experience to Want People In Your Life So Badly but because you act differently and have a hard time #with social cues you dont get that easy friendship and it sucks and youre lonely as hell #<- source: im autistic #but ALSO. i think some people forget that missing social cues genuinely makes you rude. even if you dont mean it #intent goes a long way but sometimes the autistic experience is realizing that Unfortunately You May Have Been A Dick #or that being intense or overbearing or disregarding boundries you dont know are there Drives People Away #like idk i think wanting people to look deeper and see whats worthwhile about you while also realizing youve unintentionally #driven people away #and that you can be misunderstood AND need to improve how you treat people #is an interesting story (growing as a person while also understanding that you were worthwhile the whole time even if others didnt see it)#on TOP of being a. idk more true to life autism expereince at least for me #and characters who have these kinds of arcs are really fascinating to me and i think theres a lot of nuance to them #and idk it sucks when people try to act as if lack of malicious intent suddenly means everyone who doesnt love you unconditionally is wrong #to be clear sometimes its not the Neurodivergentisms that drive ppl away sometimes its smth else #but idk i find more nuanced approaches to characters like this feel much more engaging to me and its lame when it seems like ppl go out #of their way to remove nuance from characters :/

Holding out hope that the writing in veilguard will get more bearable but rook saying to lucanis that it's "not nice that Spite hurt him" and he "shouldn't accept that it’s fine bc it wouldn't be ok if a person did that" like. That is a demon. Built off a single emotion called SPITE. Rook I am finding it really hard to believe that u have lived in thedas for more than 30 seconds.

#wow the demons which are one of the consistently evil forces in these games did something bad #hey players do you know that that was not nice #ok thank you. do u think I am 4 #dav spoilers #veilguard spoilers #dragon age the veilguard #also grinding my gears that everyone (including dalish elves???) just immediately accept the evanuris are evil/have come back #like the first person to not immediately believe it is the first warden and honestly he is the only character so far I respect #like maybe if this was like inquisition and a huge hole in the sky/rifts opened everywhere #but it seems like nothing like that happened but everyone somehow magically knows about the ritual and instantly believes everything rook sa #the more I think about these things the more annoyed I get #guys did you know being a leader means u sometimes need to make hard decisions... varric taught me that in my ma15+ game #i am enjoying the combat at least lol and I like Bellara and want to see Babylon so I'm in it for the long haul #why does everyone have a gun to their head making them nice though like it's so painfully out of place sometimes #and being able to only say the same thing but in a slightly boring slightly funny or slightly serious way is driving me insane #like I seem to be the only one who had no problem w the limits on dialogue in inquisition but this is driving me insane #Mourn watch rook what if you were somehow boring and nice. yay thank you bioware #ALSO rook stop talking and forming opinions without me getting to choose what u say like no I don't want u to day we have to save that perso #ok I swear I'm done now.. I need to go back to writing my thesis instead of grinding my teeth about this game #this is all coming from an inquisition enjoyer as well (sorry) but like so far I have found nothing I enjoyed about inquisition in this game #maybe if the inquisitor and Ghilan'nain are cool latee on I can focus on that (big maybe)#I am only early on still (just met first warden) so there is still time... i guess..

it’s so hard for me to imagine alucard in a modern au . . . like what in the world is he doing in the city?!

#that distinguished man has no business in the 21st century #the lack of manners would eat him alive #like yeah he has a mouth on him and can dish shit back but #adri can only do that for so long before wondering if the world’s truly gone to shit #technically a modern version of alucard exists . . .#genya arikado is right in front of me but im not feeling him lol . he seems like a completely different person #who STILL looks far too old fashioned to be living in 2040 whatever time #idk i just . . . i’ve been thinking of writing him in a modern setting but i just can’t wrap my head around that #you mean this man would be going to shake shack? driving cars? using a credit card instead of ducat coins?!?!!!#no way . that man belongs in the 1400s for sure lol #wow i really ended up running my mouth 😭 anyway i love that man just as he is!#꒰ঌ rambles.ᐟ ໒꒱#ৎ୭ ⨾ alucard.ᐟ #꒰ঌ castlevania.ᐟ ໒꒱#alucard #adrian tepes #adrian fahrenheit tepes #alucard castlevania #castlevania netflix #castlevania #alucard tepes

its so hard to talk about how traumatic it is to watch somebody be claimed by dementia without going "well i cant complain because at least i wasnt the one losing my mind (for now)" but that shit fucks you up so much. that ghost is going to haunt me for the rest of my life and all i can do is hope it Stays a ghost

#tiddytaco #b #thinking about it rn bc today while i was driving my mom home from pt #she saw someone she knew from years ago driving & was like FOLLOW THAT CAR & we met them in a parking lot #& the conversation turned to 'hey what the hell happened to your parents' pretty quickly bc our families hadnt been in touch #& it was a long conversation in the hobby lobby parking lot #& idk if itll ever Stop being fresh in my mind but now its Extra fresh in my mind #that whole time period was just so insane & awful #bc it was like Ok we're caring for both grandparents #& then my grandpa died #& all our pets at the time were very old #& when he died it occurred to me that we could easily lose both grandparents and all 3 pets within the year #it turned out to be like a long drawn-out year & a half from the first to the last #& looking back it seems impossible that is was that short a time period bc it felt like an eternity #we got off easy with grandpa bc he died before it got too bad but with grandma it just kept getting Worse #& the climax of the caring experience was traveling to take her to my uncle bc he wanted to take his shift caring for her #& that was so . So bad. SO bad #like it literally could not have gone more smoothly and it was SO bad #just thinking about it i feel like im there again i get so stressed out

fighting the urge to make a rant post . but once you notice you really never stop noticing!!

#that and i dont wanna sound like a lil bitch #and it truly isnt that big a deal #people can portray characters however the hell they want and i very much encourage it in this goofy ass fandom #i dont get pissy or upset or annoyed at seeming them portrayed differently to how i do. thats okay! (/GENUINE btw)#they can do whatever they want and i dont want my actions to be dictating anyone #but as a chubby guy. who has especially struggled to accept his body for suchhhhh a long time #it does get quite frustrating to see a character's fatness erased over and over again #it is the default it is the norm and people are incapable of being normal when a character IS drawn fat #the brainrot is so deep it truly drives me a little bit bonkers #i feel like im making a mountain out of a molehill when it comes to this but it is so deeply prevalent and it is quite a problem in fandom #but mostly i really wish people would detach from the stupid conventionally attractive skinny white twink guy in a suit shit #or the muscular BUT NOT FAT1!!!11!!!1 daddy archetype shit #please. take my hand. its beautiful out here so genuinely beautiful #lets love and celebrate characters who arent 'conventionally attractive' broaden ur horizons stop seeing skinny cis white ppl as the norm #toxi.txt

people's absolute inability to understand the purpose of metaphor will i think be the thing that kills me

#it's not even that ppl can't understand metaphors like #even when they DO understand them #they don't seem to get the point of them ig????#like they will accurately describe what the metaphor is depicting #and yet still somehow get dragged into long debates about the vehicle of the metaphor #that are completely divorced from both its tenor and its purpose in the story #like of COURSE the tiny intricacies of the metaphor are important #but if you are discussing them without any reference to what the metaphor is actually saying then you are doing something wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!#this was inspired by a specific tiktok video i saw about whether the tv show in i saw the tv glow was or wasn't 'real'#that was based entirely on supposed clues and easter eggs and did not once reference anything about trans and queer identities #and the role of the tv show as a representation of literally anything to do with them #aside from saying basically 'this is what this represents but i want to talk about whether it is real' in the intro #but i see it so often about so many things #and it drives me spare!!!!#i saw the tv glow #mo rudaí

Yesterday I've been doing some proper physical exercise for the first time since last year and I'm just imagining how proud my f/os would be of me🥹

#it was just a 20 minute beginners home workout and I can feel every muscle in my body now but I think they'd be so happy I pushed through!#I've had particularly Heinz and Maximilian on my mind I think they would be sooo happy that I'm trying to take better care of myself💖#Heinz because he's always there anyway of course but I kind of imagine Max is probably overall the fittest out of my f/os #he seems like the kind of guy who'd want to be an example for his soldiers and always hold himself to the same standards as them #he'd be so supportive and cheer me on and be proud of me every time I get myself to do something😭💖💖#I've never particularly enjoyed doing sports (aside horse riding but in the past year I didn't have time anymore for that bc of uni😭😭)#so I didn't really do anything anymore after I finished school #I started doing simple home workouts last year but in winter my mental health went a little📉 and then I had no motivation to keep going #dunno how long I'll go through with it this time but better than nothing I guess #again with the home workouts lmao bc driving to the nearest gym ain't worth the time for me and I'd need some basic fitness first anyway #I'm doing it mainly for health reasons but this time I'm also motivated to actually get a bit stronger #I don't mind looking like a stick figure and I'm overall content with my body (maybe it could help me to look a bit more masc tho?👀👀)#but I know especially for my posture and such it would be good if my muscles were just a tad bit more developed #my mum was proud of me too when I told her about it hehe :) she works in healthcare she's always a little concerned #she's just a little worried about me getting health issues when I'm older that could be avoided by taking proper care of my body now #I get where she's coming from but it's not easy but at least I'm motivated to try again now :)#selnia talks

The coolest gender thing in the 2009 Japanese video game persona 3 100% how hard they coded shinjiro as the dead mom

#.txt #i got soooo mad in the car driving home thinking about how his drug addiction is essentially the classic anime heart condition.#in that the only side effect of the suppressants is that they will kill him. like?#i realized for the longest time i had assumed the chest pain and sweating came from the drugs but thats. castor. obviously.#it doesnt affect his mood or his awareness its like a mood stabilizer pain relief pill?#its so odd that hes framed as like. being addicted to illegal street drugs. BY THE NARRATIVE.#when its more like hes on the most insane experimental medication that they wont even test on like. rats.#also im not fact checking any of this before posting. so i might be lying about things.#idk if it was all of strega that had trouble controlling their personas but like. chidori was because of the Experimentation.#and shinjis just like. mentally ill coded. in a bad way 😭#The inability to regulate a mood/stimuli to the point where he can be unsafe to himself or others.#broad ass symptom of disorders that are not treated well. its also interesting that its not brought on by a specific event.#like the childhood fire is there. but you have akihiko right there to directly compare it to. and hes arguably more effected by it all.#and he seems to be coping well 10+ years on like some coping mechanisms are kind of weird (protein) but nothing super out of the ordinary.#so the problem is really the october 4th incident which was just a pure honest to god accident.#the fact that it gets covered up as a car accident does feel like the best like. emotional equivalent.#because it being shinji being unable to control his persona his true representation of himself and it resulting in death is sooooo bleak #and it weighs on him for 2+ years of being suicidal and unhoused until finally he goes through with his suicide by martyrdom.#i lost the plot a little bit on the gender situation with the vague allusions to fraility when story convenient #acting as dorm den mother and cooking and sewing long hair jacket sillhouette reading like a dress #was referring to that before mental illness took over. woman under the influencing this anime boy.#long way of saying i think he should have a over the shoulder ponytail when hes older. and he should have a mood disorder.

so the 'Qimir/the Stranger is actually [ insert high republic character here ]' theories have started to escalate, Imri was one thing, today I saw someone suggest the Stranger is Cohmac and I laughed out loud.

But also sure. The Stranger is Cohmac. XD Why tf not. Except for all the, you know, 'humans don't live that long' and 'their descriptions and official character art do not match Manny Jacinto at all' 'it doesn't actually make sense' but people keep countering that with 'energy transfer' so I guess Qimir really could be anybody.

Wouldn't it be fucking hilarious if it was Azlin Rell. Fucking Azlin. That would be SO funny if he energy-transferred himself into Qimir to live another hundred extra years, to continue being the worst. It would be so funny. Absolutely no one else would find it funny but I would personally find it absolutely hilarious if 'scenic route guy' is Qimir
