#tf was that mediocrity

I think if you’re a stylist and you can’t make an idol look more captivating, interesting or beautiful than him in his natural form, you should be fired. Sick of these unimaginative editorials with bad lighting and poor direction that makes normally handsome idol guys look so boring. What’s the opposite to a Glow Up? A Dimmer Switch. They’re pulling out dimmer switches on these guys.

sourced from here. yes we actually headcanon airazor as bi but we also headcanon her as genderfluid if not a symbiosis mutualist flapdare (we are planning on writing her in fanfic more, we've been sitting on writing for years and were only able to share some new stuff that brings together what we haven't released for her in part recently), so no worries, 'tis a cute meme

Dav spoilers (mostly around taash but also around the shadow dragons quest line ending)

Okay I'll probably be making more veilguard rambles bc this game is like right on the line of "good enough to get me invested but bad enough to drive me up the wall" so I have. A lot of thoughts.

I'm still not certain how I feel about taash's writing. I'm not particularly going to go into their culture thing besides to say why the fuck is choosing one of the other what their entire god damn arc revolves around. What. Do they know you can be more than one thing... I think this is VERY odd with them being nonbinary

But anyways. What I actually want to talk about is them and their gender. Because like. I still do not know how to feel about it lmao

Because on one hand, seeing a nonbinary character be just accepted like that genuinely made me tear up a bit. On the other. This is dragon age. You know.

The previous games have set up Thedas as somewhere where homophobia/transphobia exsists and is relatively common. Zevran is more cautious flirting with a male warden, Anders asks if it's okay that he's into men. Hell, Dorian's entire fucking companion quest is "my father tried to do blood magic conversion therapy on me"

And it's just. Very very odd. Because Taash's dialogues set up the Shadow Dragons as their go to for gender problems. Which you know, makes sense on paper because of course the organization that opposes the old system of Tevinter would also want to get rid of the built in bigotry that comes with "breeding" the perfect mage. However!!! They did *nothing* with it!!! I think the shadow dragons have the most trans named/important characters in it (tarquin, maevaris, possibly also rook and maybe others? I'm not sure) and not ONCE is the fact that Tevinter is a extremely bigoted society that values bloodlines over people mentioned. Your two choices between the next archon are a gay man and a trans woman which is GREAT but not once is anything about public backlash mentioned!!! Public opinion doesn't just change overnight, blight or not! There would still be a LOT of people blinded by ignorance who would push back. And it's not!!! Fucking!! Mentioned!!!

I do love a story without homophobia/transphobia, I really do. And I think the exsistance of that kind of bigotry exists in dragon age because of when it was made. However, seeing characters thrive in spite of that? Finding love despite living in a more bigoted society? That ALSO means a lot to me. And I think they really could have done it with taash and the shadow dragons but they just didn't and it makes me so sad

Is this a safe space to admit I fucking hate Hiccup's rtte model.

I don't like how red kind of takes over his color palette (imo it's better as an accent color for him) and also. He's so fucking ugly??? Not in a 'im whining bc I don't think he's attractive enough' way, in a 'my god why tf is he so pasty and his lips are weirdly pink?? His freckles are gone and he's generally unpleasant to look at' way.

“Are you prepared to die, Hero?” Villain asked, their weapon pressed against the hero’s throat.

“Fuck yeah, I wanted to die anyway.”

The Villain groaned and dropped they weapon. “I’m not doing this.”

A look of confusion creeped onto Hero’s face. “Huh—“

“I can’t deal with you right now,” Villain exclaimed. They were walking away, now. It seemed they’d completely given up on the fight. “Come back when you’ve got a therapist or a will to live.”

Absolutely love that folks who hate Adam come up with the same arguments damn near word for word

1. He's a cringe edgelord (subjective and not inheritely a bad thing??)

2. He's violent (in a combat heavy cartoon)

3. He's a reverse racist (when he literally is branded with his oppressor's company initials)

4. He's a domestic abuser (when he's written by a company who think it's funny to stalk random women on the street from their cars)

thought about doing a piece on ezra furman's god lifts up the lowly and then that seemed too vulnerable and then I decided to switch to suck the blood from my wound and I feel like I've been hit with an emotionally staggering brick the fucking devastating weight of that song

Enough time has passed now, so I can finally say with certainty that the only good MLs of the Jewelpet Series are Akira Nanase and Retsu Akagi 👍🏻

I’ve got strong feelings on HFs. You’ve got to translate the general silhouette/characteristics but it’s got to be natural. I don’t like the stupid hats. It’s an exercise in creativity to have that effect with clothes a person might actually potentially wear

Ya know as I watched the movie I kept shooting off who I thought the bad guy was, starting with Chris. Then as Lydia and Jackson walked around the woods and they mentioned chemicals I joking thought “harris”

And when that reveal happened….
