It’s so over for privileged kids (not really, I’m sure their wealthy parents will figure something out-)
#but especially the second tweet 😭!!!#rambling#it’s kind of funny how after AA was removed from so many places that they’re are just now doing this#they’ll probably ended up raising expenses for students to counter this tbh#and I’m sure that there will still be people paying underneath the table and there will always be people willing to take these rich peoples#money and hide their hands behind their backs#still crazy to me#affirmative action

OP: Check out. The fully-sexual charged cinematic movement design.
Cnetizens: How did the director come up with the idea to have him kneel on a playing card, adding so much aesthetic energy, is that some kind of genius?
#china#cdramas#dramas#lmao#They are siblings and they're discussing serious matters#this scene is actually rather heavy because the younger brother is involved in drug trafficking#carrying more than 50 grams of heroin will result in a death sentence in china let alone being involved in drug trafficking#the older brother is a gangster king#but even he doesn't dare to get involved in the drug business because it will bring about the demise of his family#sorry for digression I mean how did the director make this scene which has absolutely nothing to do with sex#so sexually charged?#btw there're many posts with rich information about China's crackdown on drug crimes on xhs and douyin#especially about how the four major drug-trafficking families in Myanmar were wiped out overnight#they buried undercover Chinese counter-narcotics police alive and kidnapped and brutally excuted civilians#so if you're interested you can go with the key words 缅甸四大家族覆灭 on xhs and douyin#cnetizens' views on drugs are related to modern Chinese history#the first chapter of modern history in high school textbooks is the opium wars#There's a very dark joke on xhs about which country in the world would least like China to withdraw from the P5#and the answer is the UK#because it's in the first chapter of China's modern history#the Destruction of opium at Humen in 1839#no offence but Breaking Bad can't last for more than one episode if it happens in china because of the sewer detection technology#they can detect the tiniest amount of drugs in feces in a body of water the size of a lake for up to six months#which can be quickly locked down to neighbourhoods and portals#Once a foreigner was caught smuggling and selling 222.035 kg drugs in China and sentenced to death with two other Chinese associates#his country's prime minister asked for his extradition#cnetizens commented that there was an opium war and he still dare to come to China to sell drugs be like 找死court death#All the above information is to explain the gangster king's attitude towards his brother's drug business

BY THE WAY, Hugo The Dog pulled out a nightmare scenario on me and ate an entire half-loaf of homemade raisin bread, which had an EXTREMELY HIGH RATIO OF RAISINS, and for the first time ever I had the experience of inducing vomiting for a dog at home. At like midnight. HE TRIED TO DIE.
this is the face of a dog who tried to fuckin kill himself. he wagged his tail while I forcefed him hydrogen peroxide.
#it was unbelievable. he's fine. knock on wood#it was the scariest shit.#the second I saw what he had stolen off the counter I was having a panic attack so intense my ears were ringing lmao#that hydrogen peroxide thing... that works REALLY well. he barfed. he barfed alright. lost it all#every last raisin.#i felt so bad for how sickies he felt but it's better than the alternative. and he is such a champion. lots of snuggles.#it's not his fault that the bread was delicious. but could he have eaten anything more poisonous? jesus christ. even chocolate.#that would still be better than raisin bread. SO MANY RAISINS IN THERE#sergle.txt#Hugo#my baby really wanted to give everyone a heart attack

gonna say, something or someone being misogynistic is on its own a good enough reason not to like it or not to spend time with that person. It's not just that misogyny is so normalised that not watching a show or not spending with someone just because of misogyny is treated as not enough of a reason - it's also that as a woman, you are under constant scrutiny and constantly thrown tests to show that you are 'not one of the difficult ones', that you can 'take a joke'.
But 'your friend keeps saying degrading things about women' is a good enough reason not to hang out with that person or not to go to a gathering. 'i read the last book by his author and it was deeply misogynistic' is a good enough reason why you don't want to read things by that author anymore. 'This comedian specifically makes a lot of mean-spirited jokes about women' reason enogh not to watch that or see that show, even if your friends want to go. 'This content creator keeps going on weird tangents about women' reason enough not to watch their stuff or support them.
and it is especially a very good reason not to date someone.
#last night i rewatched hbomberguy's plagiarism video and I kept noticing how many female supporters James Somerton had#despite being such a giant misogynist#and this sent me down this mental rabbithole of how often it happened that we had a guy in our friend group who was rude/weird with women#but it was just an issue everyone danced around#and I feel like part of the reason is that misogyny alone is not considered a good enough reason not do something#and I can already see counter-arguments like 'so you're saying I CAN'T enjoy xyz'#I'm aware that it's impossible to cut out everything misogynistic and that you would miss out on a lot of great works if you do#but I'm trying to get out of the habit of immediately hedging what I'm saying and describing every case scenario exception#I'm not saying that you aren't allowed to do something you want to (who am I to do that)#I'm saying that IF you DON'T want to do something because of misogyny - that's reason enough#if something you do in your free time and should be for your enjoyment is so uncomfortable and becomes a chore you are doing for others#you don't have to.#and then the last one. the whole can of worms of how many women date men who hate women...

Papercraft Ed! I had the sketch for this one finished a while ago, but for whatever reason didn’t feel quite happy with it. Eventually I tried flipping it to face the opposite way - meaning his automail arm was now facing the viewer and could be shown via rips in his clothes and gloves - and then BAM, I liked how it looked after all! Sometimes it’s the simplest things that make all the difference.
#fullmetal alchemist#edward elric#papercraft#papercutting#paper art#my art#I didn't actually read or watch FMA until 2021 and somehow never had any idea whatsoever what it was actually about#just that it was Good and beloved by many#and like! I was looking forward to it! But buying the whole manga would be pretty expensive#so I kept putting it off#UNTIL!#USED BOOKSTORE TO THE RESCUE ONCE AGAIN!!!#they had the ENTIRE SERIES for a STEAL and I straight-up gasped aloud in the manga aisle#carried everything up to the counter at once like I was weightlifting because WHAT IF I left a volume behind and someone else snagged it#TOO RISKY#and then read the whole series in two days#and. Dear readers you were ALL correct#fma fucking SLAPS

I love IDW Prowl, he’s my beloved tragic-bastard. But also, every time he is treated as the default version of Prowl, so much so that ‘Master-Manipulator-War-Crimes-Mcgee,’ is attributed to him by fans no matter the continuity, an angel loses its wings.
#prowl#transformers#g1#idw#earthspark#tfp#tf prowl#tf one#‘Prowl shows up and breathes’#’Is immediately treated as his IDW counter-part.’#’He’s going to commit so many war crimes.’#What if he isn’t#IDW Prowl is the exception and not the rule for Prowl variants#It’s like picking the one universe where a hero is a bad guy and treating them like a bad guy forever#I love IDW but the current trend of treating it like the ultimate canon is harming certain characters#(Also it’s based on a wildly reductive view of IDW Prowl’s character and motivations most of the time)#-Praxian loses his doorwings might be more apt-

Feel like Neil couldn’t have been any other kind of actor than one in theatre. If he was a movie actor or on social media or whatnot, it would not be the same. Theatre by nature is fleeting. Recorded mediums can be rewatched over and over, creating a time loop of sorts. We the audience can keep going back to a time when Neil is still alive. Theatre however is live and once the play is over, there is no going back except in our memories. It is much like life. We are forced to live in the moment in a theater lest we miss it altogether. It’s not that the poets choose to live in a world where Neil is dead, it’s that they must because the only other option is to die themselves. I feel like Keatings teachings could only be reflected in stage theatre because that’s the only way there can be no time loop of grief. I think dead poets society itself isn’t about overcoming the authority in your life to do what you want but rather about grief, about allowing oneself to feel grief and all one’s emotions without letting it consume you and to keep living after, to live every day in the moment lest you fall into grief and regret that will destroy you or force you into a miserable life
#just silly ramblings don’t mind me just ignore me 🫣#keating was teaching the boys catharsis as a means of survival and how to process their emotions so they don’t overcome them in a world#that convinces them to pretend they don’t feel at all; that’s why he focuses on the romantics rather than the realists because the romantic#is there to help you process your emotions of sorrow and joy; and that’s why he told Charlie he was misunderstanding the teachings when he#was acting out but not Neil when Neil was trying to get out of the grief over the person he wishes he could be; keating taught him that his#father was standing over an empty grave grieving the son he wanted and that Neil doesn’t have to lie in that grave just to satisfy his#fathers grief but can go to his father as he is and ask him to accept this version of himself and the son he is and his father rejected and#that is why Neil thought the only way to truly overcome his father was by allowing his father to grieve him over grieving the son he wanted#and Mr. Keating was crying over Neil but we don’t see him rage out like the school; Mr. Keating grieved Neil and moved forward with life#whereas all the other administration and Neil’s father will not be able to because they refuse to recognize any emotion but rage so they#feel they must go on a wrathful journey to try to process their grief; idk I think the whole story was about teaching the boys not to be#afraid of their emotions and that they must feel their emotions to process them and get through and I think this message just happens to be#counter to the norm we were told our whole lives but also necessary to be full people and I think that is why this movie sticks with so#many and why so many hold it so dear to them; it’s a story about grief and emotions and moving forward with life after the fact#it’s about feeling in a world that tries to convince you that there are ‘bad’ emotions and that you must not feel certain things and that’s#where overcoming authority comes in and the anti authority message of the franchise stems from#neil perry#dead poets society#dps#dead poets fandom#dps fandom#mr keating#john keating#dps symposium

Hii 👋 I love your 70s actor lion so so much and I would loveee to know more about him, if there's more to know about that dude
Hiii 👋
And gladly!
He's meant to be a spoof on actor Robert Redford and-- more specifically-- the characters he plays LMAO he gained notoriety in the 70s for being generally good-looking and is an over-the-top representation of the movie genre back then (which one am I talking about, who knows)
I took a lot of inspiration from how Mad Magazine makes silly spoofs of characters from tv and film! The Lion Man, himself, is quite goofy and not meant to be serious at all but I'M GLAD PEOPLE LIKE HIM LOL
#my art#talkin pasm#i did not expect for it to gain so much traction but#if you've ever seen a movie robert redford is in...#me and my wife will sit and watch his movies together and have a counter of how many times he runs away from things or shows off his chain#addendum: i didn't use a single reference for making him btw and I don't know what that says about me

i feel ppl assume just cuz characters have insane chemistry it means they need to be shipped together. sometimes its better when nothing happens/its unfulfilled. it adds to the flavor. take for example dukat/sisko. there is undeniably something there (one sided) but under no means should they ever actually get together. ever. but dukat wants sisko desperately
#for many reasons dukat should not get what he wants but ultimately i love sisko too much to subject him to that#one sided dukat/sisko is so real and fascinating and good#dukats homoerotic obsession with sisko should be studied#and the fact that sisko refuses to entertain it but is by no means against homoerotic counter play. take that vid of him and that one guy#cowboy hat? forget what the ep was but good GOD#he can have homo tension as a treat. but not with dukat#ds9#skeletal chatter#steeples my fingers. stares out a window in thought

What using the tiniest bit of US leverage can do.
#us politics#joe biden#israel#palestine#free palestine#these people have been starving and dying for so long#many still surviving are beyond the point which they can be brought back safely from without medical help#and it took the killing of international aid workers to get here?#it's just so sad#there's no win here#no lesson learned#we can only hope this pressure mounts and stops things#especially with iran's counter hovering

My children are so stupid and I love them. The fact Right uses nicknames that are indeed Just Like That makes it even harder to differentiate which one needs to be eliminated. (Brent is pretty sure it's his head on the chopping block.)
#my characters#oops i fell in love#i love my raccoon son and hes grown a lot over the years but his inspiration recently popped into my mind#cause i forgot the characters name so i had to google it and yeahhhh#my original art of right and brent looks much more cringey now that i saw the inspo again#in terms of designs go at least bc its always been a battle of my anxiety vs my depression for the plot#but lemme just say its tempting to shove that inspiration under a rug and pretend its totally based on something i only played this year#even though ive had these characters for many years lmao#like i realize they look somewhat similar to how i draw some from dbh but its really far from the inspo ...#he has always been vulgar but he used to be much more aggressive (even verbally)#but i dont actually have much art of him in contact with others even originally which is cool to notice#the one noticeable two panel comic with him ALLOWING potentially touching someone#was actually just brent teasing him with oh you should give me a high five and then he raises his hand really high to mock his height#and im p sure that was drawn right after coworkers did that to me#which actually side tangent in the tags#shout out to my manager at my old job who did that as a joke and im like no wait keep it up there for a second#and then fuckin stepped back and then got momentum and used the counter to help and SMACK#resounding clap that made every single head in the restuarant turn to us#it was like a gun shot everyone got dead quiet and my manager looked STUNNED#then he said that was the best high five hes ever gotten and i was so proud it all started as a joke and jokes on him#i take the stupidest shit seriously

Hold on- would... would Machete and Vasco be that dynamic of where- one would have so many hair products. so so many. a whole shelf full. and the other just has that fucking 9 in 1 shampoo bottle..... help-
(other than this stupid little blurb of words, I seriously enjoy your works, every single little aspect and line and everything defines it so much. it's so pleasing to the eye and so recognizable, and even just your little sketches and it always is such a treat to see your art <3 all my friends love Canis Albus art)
The most obvious answer would be Machete has the army of hair products and Vasco has the single multipurpose bottle, but in reality I think 1. Vasco also likes to look and smell his best, and 2. Machete's fur does The Thing naturally so he wouldn't need that many.
(Thank you! ;_; That's so nice to hear)
#I think this setup would apply to their medicine cabinet however#Vasco has a bottle of over the counter ibuprofen and something like cholesterol meds#and Machete hoards everything just in case#he'd be the type to take so many food supplements#just stupid amounts of money spent on various pills every month#answered#seraphs-sacred-shithole#that sure is a name#modern au
