My toxic trait: sometimes (frequently) when Brennan Lee Mulligan says a bird fact, I think "that's not a very good bird fact literally everyone knows that."
And then I remember that I have duck-based Christmas traditions. So my experiences are not universal.
I still think the chickens-swallow-rocks thing is common knowledge tho so! A poll:
#brennan lee mulligan#dropout#dimension 20#do you ever look at your life#look at your choices#and realize you are PRECISELY the person#that Um Actually was created for?#I do think the chicken gizzard thing is a prime Kid Fact tho#you dont have to be a dropout fan to vote btw#I am genuinely curious if this is common knowledge or not

how long had you been listening to hozier when you finally realised that when he sings "im almost me again, shes almost you" and "i laugh like me again, she laughs like you" he probably means you. like. YOU you. like. these are the songs that make me feel like me. i didnt just listen to them. they inspired me. they made me want to create, or just, they made me want to live. the people who wrote them put so much love into them and so much life into the melodies that they captured the essence of being human
did i put enough love into it, did i put enough life into the melody? does it just blend into the background, some song about some other far-off distant impersonal "she" who you have nothing to do with, or did i bring you that moment in a song when it suddenly connects with you and becomes about you? did i transform my thoughts and feelings into something you can connect with? did i manage to do the same thing for other people that saved me? because thats the thing that would make me feel like me. did i make a song that makes you feel like you?
how long had you been listening to hozier when you realised "you" meant you. and was it so embarrassingly long it felt like youd been looking at something beautiful in admiration every day for years and only just seen its eyes looking back
#hozier#almost#wasteland baby!#and did it take you too long to see it because you habitually assume the people who created the things you love and admire the most#would hate you because you see in them so clearly the ways youre not as brilliant#because somehow you forget that artists only create art because they love people enough#to want to show as many people as possible the things they care about#did you forget that art is an act of love#when its done right#not some kind of bragging#is that why you think you can never actually mean you#and did something change when it clicked for you#or um#something nonspecific like that

indeed my exact process once every 8 months or so
#I just thought today of a new way to format a 'profile' (like the descriptions of self that people use on friend meeting#apps and stuff) and how to organize the sections so that it seems such and such a way and oh what if there's links which click off#into branching paths so it's very acessible and there are two different forms depending on so on and so forth#and i was like 'um.. wow. amazing idea. this will be soooo aweseome and will definitely work' but then .. you know...self reflection#lol.. is this just like the millions of other iterations of a similar thing? No.. This Is Different ... Surely...#Though if I had a millionaire friend and a few people who do the type of coding you use for web design stuff and etc..#I could create the most elaborate detailed and amazing platonic friend seeking (and I guess you could also have 'dating' as an option#since that would draw in more of a crowd) website on the earth.. the new okcupid (back when okcupid didn't suckishly abandon their#whole format in hopes of trying to become just like tinder or whatever and they actually had like tons of info and percentages and#open answer questions and would list personality traits on a profile (like 'this person is more Open To New Expereinces than 65% of#other users' etc.). etc. etc. Oh what a beautiful thing I could craft for the detail freaks of the world.... Alas...#unfortunately we seem to be in an oversimplification era.. everything in short quick bites. everything on a tiny phone screen. etc.#marketing 'Introducing The Most Complicated Data Heavy Social Connection Site In The World' would not sell well I'd imagine gjhgjh#AANYWAY.. also no idea why the representation of me is in a turtle neck. what a bold fashion choice..#In another moment of self reflection.. the fact that in the first tag on this post I felt the need to define the word 'profile' just to be#specific as if people couldn't tell from context.. so clearly someone who finds filling out forms a 'fun afternoon activity' lol#the type of guy who finds psych evaluations and pop quizzes and making chore lists mostly enjoyable (< true)

Like honestly my main problemo with mainstream kink culture is that like. I'm sorry but you will never convince me skinnyhot cishet girlies being pounded into literal submission by a bigstrong cishet man in a "playful" recreation of extreme patriarchy is subversive. Straight women crying about being "shamed" for liking booktok alphas and reclaiming their sexuality just doesn't move me as an argument for feminism when the shit they write/read is just straight up hetero rapefic. Good for you for getting off but getting off isn't inherently radical or progressive.
Like I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry dude you need to at least fuck him in the ass on the reg for me to care. Like if you're just being a femsub girlbottom then I don't care how reclaimed and empowered you feel and I won't celebrate you for bragging about it.
I won't cheer for you if he spits on you or chokes you or whatever else you're into just because you personally get off to it. I don't care. It's not a power move. Come back when you idk. Put thang (man) on a leash. Release a song about breaking in a male dom like a horse. And then we'll talk subversive.
#gays and lesbs do whatever you want forever#also also my MAIN main problem is the insistence that like this behavior is toootally apolitical and so is whatever you get off to#like we've all been convinced that things are always political and intersectional and society affects the individual#but when it comes to kink it's suddenly ���ummmmm. this has NO implications anywhere ever!!!” it's like. no i don't think so man#same with religion#you can't be like “SYSTEMS OF POWER AND PROPAGANDA” and then be like “umm except if you criticize these things. then you're um. fascist.”#not even criticize but like. discuss#like fine man you can enjoy your maledom fantasies as a straight woman. but when somebody goes 'haha ok. why is this so popular though'#'why this specific kink' the answer shouldn't be WHY ARE DO YOU HATE FEMALE DESIRE!!#excuse me ma'am why are you calling YOUR specific desires#'female' desires. answer quickly#god this is such a minefield cuz i get the importance of kink in queer spaces and all that#and as much as i joke i don't wanna kinkshame cuz everybody has kinks and/or preferences#but like. i'm so tired of extremely normative mainstream things being celebrated like they're subversive!!!#also as mentioned in the replies a lot of the mainstream alphadom stuff isn't even actually kink. it's just parroting that shit#for monetary gain#in a garbled and twisted way#authors who don't have that kink regurgitating it back all scrambled to an ignorant audience#so yeah man i can't see it as subversive if that's the thing that PRINTS YOU MONEY#the thing that you create because it's LITERALLY POPULAR

anybody else start feeling like they’re on the other side of the glass from everybody else as soon as they’re not actively making stuff in fandom…
#waiting for delivery to arrive and feeling hashtag Weird#watching everybody having fun and creating new stuff and making new friends#while i feel like a complete stick in the mud. um. not fun#and yet the desire to have fun (and feel wanted) is not enough to make me actually write anything postable. curious.

#i did mean it when i said hollands actually not even my favorite character within this universe which is honetsly#concerning the more unwell i act about him. but like he's probably in the top 5 if not top 3#he is the main main character after all i feel like it'd be weird if i didnt like him a lot lmao#i cant help that hes a pirate with loose moral but a compassionate sappy little heart :/ i cant help that he cares deeply for hte people ar#und him and will die and kill for them :/#when he leaves his home country to become a pirate and hes kept track of pirate politics and hes like#i know how to make people like me i will ally myself with the big pirates to climb my way to the top#but he forgot he's a very driven person who'll go very far to reach his goals so like he does meet and create relationships with these peop#e but um. not good ones usually lmao but like that in and of itself inadvertently launches him into pirate fame#honestly hollands plans rarely go the way he wants them to but like he still kind of knows what he's doing#that time he tries to assassinate the crown prince but ends up falling in love instead :/ whoops#chugging an energy drink so i can make more pirate renders<3 less holland renders i need my other characters to get some renders too

Okay im beginning to accept that testament’s presence in the plot could make things more complicated and really i should be grateful considering theyre the only non-present major character to be mentioned in the first episode at all. So. They sorta won
#i think they intersect interestingly with the themes! but um idk#maybe its hard to be like gears arent evil when theres a gear that did some evil standing there#gears arent weapons…!!! (🧍<- gear actually explicitly created to be a weapon and used as a weapon for 50 years)#thinking of testament’s ac story opening line. will the world ever forgive me. well. i dont knos buddy . but you forgave yourself at least.#i dont mean to sound like that person on twt who was like testament Cant be at the weddingn. nbecause they KILLED PEOPLE#i just mean we dont have the fucking time to unpack all that.#thats real btw they replied like that to every person who was like ‘no testament?’ when the trailer dropped it was really funny#the kat goes meow

Sometimes I just think about Soi Fon. Like that shit was so insane. Easily one of The characters of all time. You’re going to give me a woman who hates the physical manifestation of her soul because it’s loud and explosive and she doesn’t think it’s “proper” that it suits her, but it’s so obvious it does because she’s angry and stubborn and loud and explosive!!! And then the fact that she never ever calls upon that physical manifestation of her soul until things are so dire it’s practically that or death? The fact that in so many ways she lets her emotions build and build and build until they quite literally explode???? And then!!! AND THEN!!!! Add in that she hates her bankai because it’s “inappropriate” for an assassin… for her role as captain of the Stealth Force… the position she inherited from Yoruichi after she abandoned Soul Society for Urahara… She despises the physical manifestation of her explosive nature, the nature she hides until she can’t, just like she shoved down her feelings for Yoruichi, the betrayal, the hurt, the love, until she quite literally couldn’t anymore and it all came back up in a BANG!!! Like god… oh my god, no one will ever do it again and kubo did not deserve such a cool fucking character in the least
#bleach#soi fon#yorusoi#<— because like this definitely feeds into it#like I refuse to believe soi fon didn’t have some form of romantic feelings for yoruichi like it’s so OBVIOUS#also like add in the lesbian angle to this???#oh… MY GOD it just makes it so much more intense#hiding from your feelings and swearing up and down they shouldn’t suit you that they’re not right for you#even though they obviously are#I can’t fuckin do it man#it’s been YEARS but the soi fon brain rot is still just SO strong#I really did fuckin imprint on her#but tbh in general I hate to give him any credit but kubo did kinda go off with characters who hated/hid their bankai#like the whole thing of hating your soul hating your very being#unparalleled. wish he actually did anything cool with those particular character arcs#like the soi fon ikkaku and yumichika character arcs could have been PEAK#(also don’t even get me started on the three of them being some of the uh… um… well ya know a teeny bit queer)#it could have been so good#but again kubo can’t write and hates gay ppl so lmao#wild that he genuinely created some of the coolest queer characters ever kinda on accident#like whoopsie#anyways I’ll shut up now#kaz rambles

huh. you know maybe I just live under a rock or something but I really wasn’t aware that so many people make fun of the way different languages and dialects sound outside of like. certain british dialects (classism), AAVE (racism), and mockery of any language asides from English (also racism).
…ok so maybe I did know but it’s still a bit disappointing. making fun of languages and dialects really isn’t funny.
#‘lol this dialect/language is stupid’ actually you sound stupid#WHO is making fun of québécois??? I guess parisian french speakers? anglophones? weird. and also stupid#it’s the same stupidity with welsh and irish too. people looooove making fun of the spelling#nynorsk was on there too! what! literally it was created as a written form to preserve rural norwegian dialects!#if this kind of thing is your go-to joke. um. become funnier.#storyrambles#random thoughts

Good Omens Thoughts
Your honor, in the matter of maybe Crowley's memory wasn't wiped, I'd like to submit the following into evidence:
"Angels are like bees. […] Once you're inside… Well, I mean…" Proceeds to walk by two higher ranking angels unnoticed.
Look at that smug. The smug of someone who was proven right. Crowley knew they weren't going to notice him because he "doesn't matter". He's just "another low ranking angel". How else would he have known that unless he himself acted the exact same way?
He got his proof that nothing has changed in Heaven in the past 6000+ years. And so, "I haven't always been a demon, and they never change their passwords."
In this head canon of mine, his memory didn't get wiped. He still knows how heaven works. He was just a high ranking angel full of himself who didn't bother knowing or remembering lower ranking angels. (Or just an angel who never took the time to know his fellow angels because he was too busy with his singular brain cell making the one thing he was created to do. Thus, making him seem like he was full of himself.) Just like Gabriel, Michael and Uriel. The only thing that made him different was his passion to create, his curiosity, and his love for the universe. His little engineer heart.
The fall humbled him. Literally brought him down from having his heads in the clouds.
It's why he didn't bother introducing himself to Az the first time they met, but does at the wall. Probably also why he felt safe slithering over to him at the wall. Az is an angel he remembered being kind to him and warning him about Heaven, "peek your head out of your clouds", before the fall.
The madness comes from watching this too many times:
youtube
#one day i will recover from this good omens brain rot#yes i still also believe in the memory wipe theory#angel crowley just feels like someone who just wanted to make something amazing#but prob looked like he was just as narcissistic as the other archangels#but actually he was just so in love with creating the universe he didn't notice the angels around him#he was waiting to create the universe since um... well always#he had one brain cell that was tasked to do one job#its not his fault hes stupid your honor#crowley#anthony j crowley#angel crowley#good omens#good omens 2#good omens season 2#good omens spoilers#good omens analysis#good omens theory#good omens tv#give me season 3 or give me death#Youtube#marias good omens thoughts

Another thing that I found funny when replaying ME2 - at least the one that has not been memed to death over the last fifteen years - is how upon the revelation that all of their Collector encounters were with the same ship, Shepard sagely goes "hmmm, can't be a coincidence" and it's meant to be this dramatic reveal in the middle of a sci-fi thriller highlighting how an enigmatic enemy is watching you. But then at the end of the game you get to their base and this one ship is the only vessel the motherfuckers have.
#I guess they technically have two#if we want to be the first people in the last decade to remember the existence of paragon lost#or whatever was James Vega's anime backstory called#which could actually be this inoffensive little tie-in's greatest sin#creating space for um-actualling my funny post twelve years after its release#mass effect#mass effect 2#mass effect legendary edition
