This is just a thought, a random ass thought, but I know a lot of queer people. Even when I was living in a majority muslim south asian country, I knew queer people. Since I've moved to Europe, I've had the pleasure of being acquainted to so many more queer people. Its not everyone I meet, not even 50% of people I know, but from the top of my head I can name at least 5 people. If given time, I can name a hell of a lot more.

It means something. That I know so many queer people, despite not going to any bars, or joining any lgbtq+ clubs. Just random ass people I've met in everyday life. And these are just the queer people that I know. I'm well aware there's more people that I don't know of.

Just. Suddenly it means a lot to me that there's a sizable amount of us. It means something. And it means something when I watch a movie, or a TV show, and I don't see a single queer person in it. Rather than it being that there's no representation, what bothers me is that it's unnatural.

It's unnatural to see no queer people in a movie. And that is such a gratifying realisation to me right now because for the longest time, everyone's been rubbing it in our faces that what's unnatural instead is being queer.

And as someone who's still growing up in so many ways, it is so gratifying to have real proof that they're wrong.

I know everything that can be said on this topic has been said to death and no one but Jews will ever acknowledge it but it is still absolutely infuriating how every brand of gentile from every part of the political spectrum has collaborated to turn the word "Nazi" into a generic word for "fascist" or "bad person" or "person I don't like." Nazism isn't just fucking fascism and it isn't a synonym for bad person. It's a specific ideology that is centered at its root around blaming Jews for every problem in the world and wanting to exterminate them.

No, generic racist Republicans are not "Nazis." No, TERFs are not "Nazis." No, your crappy corrupt European leader is not a "Nazi." No, cops are not "Nazis." You know why they aren't Nazis? Because their entire ideology and behavior, as harmful as it may be to certain groups, is not centered around hating JEWS.

Nazism is an ideology centered around hating JEWS. Other people and groups may be caught in the crossfire, but ultimately, a Nazi's goal is to exterminate Jews, and you cannot just ignore that! I read a 12 paragraph essay yesterday written by a gentile analyzing the reasons people in Nazi Germany flocked to Nazism, and antisemitism wasn't mentioned as a motivation even once! They thought it was all because of gender norms and sexual repression! Oh my god!

The comfort with which gentiles have near universally divorced Nazism from antisemitism in colloquial speech is a direct precursor to the separation of Nazism from antisemitism in academic discourse. It's a direct predecessor to the rise of institutionalized antisemitism that we are seeing happen in real time now, because you have all gotten so used to appropriating Jewish trauma and Jewish oppression to the extent that you have convinced yourselves it isn't even uniquely real. That antisemitism doesn't exist as a specific bigotry that stands on it's own, that antisemitism is always some kind of footnote tied to some other, more important form of oppression. Do you think that Jews don't see what is happening here, that we don't see the deliberate generalization of Jew hatred and appropriation of the language we can use to refer to it? Jewish trauma becomes everyone's trauma, Jewish oppression becomes everyone's oppression, and soon enough the world at large has stolen the language of Jewish oppression right out of our mouths, until huge swaths of people can say "Jews are the new Nazis" and not see anything absurd about that at all.

Because you won't. Fucking. Acknowledge. What Nazism actually is. You won't fucking acknowledge that any ideology is specifically targeted at JEWS, and not YOU. Stop it!! Stop it! Cut it the fuck out. Nazism cannot be divorced from antisemitism and the insistence that it not only can be but MUST be by gentiles just shows how deeply ignorant and biased against Jews most of you really are.

"If you want me to talk solely about the manga vs anime skk"

I do, actually.

Please.

Pretty please with a cherry on top.

PART 1.

Aight!! I will be just pointing out some differences/stuff that was deleted from the anime.

Under the cut

THE DUNGEON SCENE:

-When they first meet again in the manga, they throw some silly jokes at each other (like Dazai asking Chuuya if he's hiding a bald spot. And Chuuya just taking his hat off to show him he's, in fact, not balding)

-In the manga when Chuuya calls Dazai the youngest mafia executive, in his mind Dazai is wearing his ADA clothes but keeps the black coat and the bandaged eye. I think it's a very silly detail

-In the anime, in anger Chuuya actually cuts Dazai's cheek with his knife. In the manga, the moment he starts getting angry he jumps away from Dazai and then throws the knife to the floor, not touching him at all

-Manga Chuuya falls to his knees (basically standing on all 4s), having a lil crisis after realizing Dazai only stayed in the dunegon to meet him. He gets up in a while, just to yet again squat on the floor after Dazai yapps more

-Obviously the pigeon-stand scene: in the manga Dazai is laughing to tears at this, while in the anime he stays silent. (Tho i must say i find it funny that Chuuya gets angry over Dazai not laughing,, like he tried so hard and this guy just :| him)

LOVECRAFT FIGHT:

-This is not about skk but lord yall know that panel where Chuuya ie standing on all these Guild ppl being all like im gonna beat ur ass next. He's just standing normally on the floor in the anime. Aughhhhh this panel is so good aughhhh. Ok anyway back to skk

-When Dazai nullifies John's ability, in the anime Chuuya just kicks Steinbeck from behind. In the manga, skk perform that silly move where Chuuya jumps from behind Dazai. It just shows how even after 4 years of not working with each other, they instantly work together as well as before

-Skk arguing about who's walking next to who like some preschoolers ('dont walk next to me' 'its you who's standing next to me' typa thing) then deciding that they're gonna stay at least 2 metres away from each other

-The manga clearly shows Chuuya's expression when he's talking about 'being happy when Dazai left'. He definitely doesn't look very happy. (In the anime we just get some background drawings)

-Manga Chuuya's lil blush when Dazai compliments his taste in shoes 😭😭

-When Dazai asks for Chuuya's knife, in the manga Chuuya just goes 'oh sure lemme find it' and is actually ready to give him the knife. In the anime? Chuuya doesn't search for the knife, instead he just gets annoyed

-Anime deleted the scene where Dazai talks to Chuuya about recording Kunikida while he was cursed with Q's ability. Chuuya going bruh he also annoys ppl in the agency

-those two idiots calling each other stupid nicknames for half of a page

-Chuuya mentioning keeping a track of women Dazai made cry and threatening him with sending them Dazai's address????

-Dazai telling Chuuya that his intelligence will be consumed by his hat (im currently looking at my polish version of the manga so the translation may be a bit off but anyway)

-Before activating Corruption, they yet again call each other a bunch of stupid nicknames (ahah consider this a silly form of goodbye if anything happens)

-Remember my post about Dazai keeping his eyes on Chuuya at all times during Corruption in the manga? In the anime he looks either at John or at Lovecraft, no puppy eyed loser

-Just a mention that in the manga we see Chuuya sleeping while he's sitting, he doesn't flop passed out to the ground (until later)

Well i will stop there for now bc it's past midnight and umm this is gonna be long af if i continue with the rest so,, i will add the differences in the next skk interactions tomorrow or something muah

V interesting rereading posts from last week cause they feel so far away and I'm so...I wouldn't say relaxed but I'm so far away and in space rn that I am not even thinking about my real life concerns at all :)

Me rereading posts from like 3 days ago: yikes this guy's vibe is so bleak

[mmelolabelle]

this show is so deeply unserious that it is now an actual established canonical fact that Aemond Targaryen is cool with his mommy plotting to usurp the throne, but draws the line at her repressed lesbian longing

aromantic people deserve to have their own spaces, have their own voices be heard, and be more than just a second thought or a footnote on the asexual community

Is it only me that literally does not have an interest on ANY of the canon ships in nnt? Like Melizabeth is a good story, like 3000 year long love story and you better know I'm eating all the angst on AO3 up alr. But it has too many weird aspects, like Elizabeth being a child etc. Also just Elizabeths personality like before she regained her memories she was so annoying to me after she was better and I loved her dynamic with Merlin (want more of their sisterly bond btw) overall Liz x Meliodas Is more interesting to me.

I've already explained in another post why I don't like Kiane, but I'll say it again. DIANE IS 15!! 15 If she was human!! like why did that have to be canon it ruined the cutest ship for me tbh, cause I see King as an adult. Also just cause king met her when she was a kid and he seemed the same as he was now. So yeah.

Banlaine... The only thing wrong with what could've been my favorite ship is the thing we all know. WHY IS SHE A GODDAMN CHILD. I've literally done so many redesigns of her which now I'm thinking I should post.

Escalin, now I know this technically isn't canon but it's semi-canon in my opinion so I'll just let it slide. Tbh I really feel like Merlin is way too inexperienced with emotional love (yes emotional love y'all now my girl has experience ;) like she needs to sort herself out first I think. And understand the difference between platonic and romantic love (I'm looking at her crush on Mel as a her not getting platonic love at all) and even if she did have all that figured out I just don't see them being together, like he worships her I think its cute but freaky. And I just don't see her like I love with someone XD. In my head canon she's on the like aro spectrum. I fear home girl has too many problems for it to be cleared out in his lifetime. (Btw I'm not saying he can't help her or anything I just think she has to like love herself first yeah)

I'd love to hear what you guys think!

[crenmir]

Are you sure about that blitz?🤔

[secretlytranced]

I just really love you all. Thank you for helping keep me wet and spacey and always adding to my brainwashing in the best ways 💜

Making a list of the times sanji goes kinda insane:

When usopp and luffy fight for the merry and he keeps trying to keep everyone together in peace (it doesn't work so:)

Sanji goes on a mission to find robin and when he finds her he just jumps into the water after her (re: keeps trying to keep everyone together, he can't)

Sanji being the only one (or first one) to know what happened between kuma and zoro

Sanji running to attack kuma in saboady after he "fails" to protect two people from kuma
