Not to mention user-friendliness includes the initial setup process. For most people, they will never want to put effort into installing a new OS, people barely even want to upgrade to the newest Windows OS and it is spoonfed to us. Letalone installing any version of Linux which often requires a greater than average (I'm talking general population) knowledge of both hardware and software. People Don't Know Shit and They Don't Want To.

im closer than ive ever been to seriously considering linux but at the end of the day . after doing a lot of research. it really just is an operating system for turbo nerds (yes, even the more user friendly distros). which is ok!!! i just wish people would stop pretending it wasn't, cuz its a genuinely big undertaking for most people, even ppl that like computers and tech like myself.

it really is a 50/50 chance on unsourced mclennon posts whether you're going to deep dive and find out that it was some random user on a "beatles slash quotes" deviantart page in 2009 making shit up for fun that has now been passed around as gospel truth for over a decade OR you find out that not only is it from a credible source but it's actually 10x crazier than anyone is even talking about and you sit there staring at a wall for a while in disbelief that they were real people saying and doing this romeo and juliet bullshit For Real while being the band that sings about yellow submarines

i genuinely despise jonelias.

i WISH i could word this nicer but i can't hold it in anymore and i have no idea why it's so popular. it's just so WRONG. if they were together it would be so horrible and toxic and NOT in the fun billford way.

i love both of the characters but omfg why is it the 3rd most popular tma ship on ao3

So, CONFIRMED: Izuku never gave up on Katsuki because he "chose the heart deep inside"...he knew that Katsuki had good in him and never gave up in that heart.

I mean It was always confirmed since DvK2 when Izuku himself said that if he really hated Katsuki he wouldn't want anything to do with him, but you know, just in case anyone needed it said again.

okay so

i think the viktor and mel hallucinations during jayce's whole Moment in 2x07, their eyes are just completely black. and its VERY faint but u can KIND OF see the outline of their irises if u look REALLY close (irl)

to show u what i mean:

first ones are just normal settings (tho my computer brightness is all the way up), i only messed with the exposure n highlights of the pictures and stuff in the middle ones, and outlined the eyes in the third ones

​which could make sense in terms of his mental state i think ? he maybe feels like he let them down, or betrayed them or couldnt help them in a way ??

they dont feel human to him anymore. or maybe hes created these images so theyre judging him as he can only reminisce on what happened and how he left things

mel’s vision looks maybe like either angry, stubborn, strong willed or annoyed lol... her chin is kinda turned down, with downturned eyebrows, and her lower lids are halfway closed implying that shes like glaring or narrowing her eyes at him, her lips almost look pursed together and i think ? her nostrils are flared but its so hard to tell lmao we only get like three frames of over exposure HAAH take these with a grain of salt lmfao

viktor (even tho i cannot for the life of me read his expression HAHA) to the best of my ability i think kinda looks hurt or confused, maybe innocent for lack of a better term or scared. ((which given how he left jayce it would kinda fit lmao)) BUT his brows are ever so slightly scrunched together, one is higher than the other which usually implies confusion or thinking or admiring. eyes are wide open, mouth is agape a teenie bit, these are usually seen with softer, positive or more admirable expressions, and his chin is tilted upward. im not trying to turn this into a jayvik thing i swear im just comparing to my facial recognition knowledge HAHA

and as he loses himself deeper in the hexcore, the more he starts losing and/or fearing the two ppl he loved most ? ... and worries how he’d get back to them (if at all) and how he would imagine they would react.

the two ppl who not only made and brought him to who he is today, but uplifted and supported and stood by him for ~10 years despite everything

anyway this theory would all pair nicely with the voices that start playing in the background during his lil Montage lmao it kind of culminates into a massive guilty conscious, that then outwardly presents itself in their hallucinations:

“i never asked for this” - jayce to viktor, after their conversation about him breaking their promise about destroying the hexcore, resulting in vik leaving him lmao. also jayce literally turned viktor into this metal husk so hes gotta have that sitting on his shoulders too lmfao

“[heimer] was my mentor, and i betrayed him” - jayce (to mel) abt voting heimer off the council despite heimer ending up being completely right about magic in the first place

“it corrupts” “you must destroy it” “ive seen nations destroyed” - heimer about the hexcore, jayce screams over this as those lines play, anguishing over the fact that he literally did this to himself and hes the reason Piltover is (or will be) no more bc he ignored the warnings

“its your time now jayce” “perhaps its time for the era of magic” - mel to jayce, context is in the quotes HAHA. jayce is screaming no! no! and please! during these lines, i think its just to hammer (pun intended) home on the fact that it all ties back to him for ‘creating’ magic. its on HIM (at least in his own mind) for the destruction of Piltover and all of its people

maybe im just thinking too hard about it idk (im not). or unless this was extremely obvious to the average viewer HAHA. in my defense i spent this whole montage pausing every .6 seconds to take a picture of seggsy and broken and whimpering jayce so i wasnt really paying that much attention to it all AHAHA

anyway do u think this was a hallucination or was it actually the mage standing here with him for a flash lmao

okay sorry for that long ass post i would add a page break sooner but it would interrupt my flow of thoughts that i need u all to experience like i do HA

finding people that feel like home isn't just about feeling comfortable around them. it's about coming back to them after not talking for a while and having every negative thought be immediately snuffed out by complete familiarity. it's about going to them not to just feel safe, but to feel restored. it's about knowing there will always be at least one topic that never tires out. its about knowing this is the one place you can take your metaphorical shoes off and be habitual. it's about not fearing conflict because fixing something that broke benefits our sanctuary. the house is alive and we know it is because we take care of it when it wears down and it shelters us too in return.

Real shit guys:

I understand the appeal of Shen Yuan having a shrine of Luo Binghe merch however it is cannon that he read PIDW in 20 days then died.

So I question the validity of him being able to accumulate large amounts of merch(and have time to set it up) in his already rigorous reading schedule (which was anywhere from 580wpm to 725wpm a for 23 hours every day factoring in ONE SINGLE HOUR A DAY for him to do anything other than read)

So idk guys, Binghe merch shrine just might it be feasible, unless Shen Yuan somehow has 48 hours in a day.

yall i know epic ignores the odyssey but guys odysseus cheated on penelope *a lot*. Like a classics professor has estimated it to be over 6000 times. he loves her but he did cheat often. Of course, this may have been non consensual.

He was killed by Telegonus, one of his kids with Circe. Telegonus later married Penelope while Telemachus married Circe. It’s not only the gods with the fucked up family relations.

wait do you guys think the outfit engineer has in the halloween comic is a bee???

it’s a fly, it’s this cosmetic set without the mask, it’s a reference to the horror movie “the fly”

Fanfics love to paint Aizawa as some super serious guy who never engages in fun as if he didn't literally do a theatre major monologue in Vigilantes just for kicks

You seem like the kind of person that's really fucking tall but it's all in your legs.

Thank you but I am sadly 5'1

Hello! I adore your Bodies fanart. I was imagining Karl in 1890 and how much havoc he would wreak. Also Henry and Karl would get along very well, I think, and Karl would be a *terrible* matchmaker for Henry and Alfred... I'd love to see your take on any of this, if anything comes to you 😍

HELLO OMG THANK YOU FOR THE EXCUSE TO JUST DROP HOT TAKES INTO THE BODIES NETFLIX TAG <3 all these drawings are very scrappy and i lost the plot and this became more like sharing all my hcs but still :')

now that you have brought it to me i really do think henry and karl would be unstoppable, i think they'd constantly have a fun, back-and-forth banter !!! i also can see karl dropping multiple not-so-subtle hints, and all of the detectives being quite supportive. gently too, considering the period-typical homophobia. i do think sometime along the lovelorn pining looks, he gets tired of seeing them orbit each other without anything happening, and this exchange occurs:

more doodles and crying under the cut :)

i will die on the "karl weissman bisexuality" hill. HE TOLD ME IN A DREAM!!!! it's just a little messier for him because he really likes women and will not figure it out ever. charlotte hillinghead TO ME also has the exact opposite problem where she is very much in love with her husband and doesn't have any incentive (or freedom considering the time period) to explore her sexuality. the way she accepted hillinghead's feelings for henry, and was less rejecting and more devastated over thinking he didn't love her or polly, just read queer to me somehow. an acceptance because she's like that too, yk? (maybe a bit of a reach but i don't get to choose who my mind designates as being bi)

i like to think that charlotte-karl experience a spider-verse mindmeld "YOU'RE LIKE ME" moment over being bisexual but they're not quite sure why they're feeling that way because they have no idea they're bi. if you are me you will understand perfectly

and i am a henry/alfred/charlotte poly truther as well (please see above discord ranting from my dms with a friend lol)

on more notes of just giving whichever character i want the bisexuality card, hasan is bi to me too. i think hillinghead and her bond a little over that shared religious guilt, of having their respective institutions be homophobic, and the feeling for so much of their life that they're different, so there must be something wrong. it helps her empathise with him and they quickly become closer because of it :) possibly also introducing him to queer lit, and maybe some non fiction lgbt history books

and one last final doodle because i think alfred as the only detective with an active love life where he's pursuing someone would make the others pretend like they can be adults but they want to know SO BAD and they also give advice once in a while because they're rooting for alfred :) they're all pretty good at hiding how badly they're invested in this (think iris 'casually' asking hillinghead how it's going and the other two perk up in the background) like i refuse to believe any of them are totally immune to the equivalent of office-gossip

this was so so long LOL i hope any of that is coherent !!!!! a lot of it ofc is my own projection bc i am bi, but it's real to me <3

i once had an anti tell me to stop sexualizing their trauma on a story i wrote that was a word for word retelling of my own actual trauma but with names changed and its been 2 years and i still cant stop thinking about that

Ah, yeah... Unfortunately a non-insignificant number of antishippers seem to genuinely believe they own the concept of trauma, so any story they read that they believe to be portrayed in a romanticized or sexualized light therefore must be romanticizing/sexualizing their trauma specifically.

I couldn't tell you the amount of times I've gotten the "stop sexualizing my trauma!!!!!!" or adjacent comments from antishippers that universally garner a response that basically boils down to

Like, bitch! I'm talking about my trauma! I literally did not even know you existed until you fucking commented!

[spiralingguitarist]

still in shock how the splitter girl downgr4de remix was probably not inspired by erikar at all. wdym the piano is not based on eridan's aristocratic theme and the drum is not a metaphor for karkat's constant frustration with life
