Me last week, only having watched The Mandalorian, the OG Trilogy, the Sequel Trilogy, and Rogue 1: Dang I was hoping for that arc about Din being a capable leader to get resolved better....but I'm glad Bo is the leader in his stead! She messed up that one time with Moff Gideon—and I figured everyone would be a bit more mad about it—but now she gets to unite everyone under refreshed & competent leadership while Din gets to keep his kid and his episodic adventures. All's well that ends well!

Me now, knowing Bo's involvement in Death Watch:

#RANT WARNING:#They hid like half of her backstory what the fuck #I'm not mad...I'm just mad #like as a casual this was...fine #not the best-ever S3 and there were better ways to let Din have his way that made sense with what was being set up #but fine whatever #But knowing that Bo didn't lose the saber once—nor twice—but THREE SEPERATE TIMES #and of course losing mandalore with it #is absolutely blood-boiling #that changes a lot actually!#like at that point maybe she *should* give conquering Mandalore a rest! At bare fucking minimum!#“Can she still redeem herself” sure; that doesn't mean she should *lead*#I am sorry to all the invested fans who have watched literally anything else like goddamn #The Mandalorian #Din Djarin #bo katan kryze #bo katan #mando #star wars #streamofconciousnessposting

erm…..posting about an OC via a rushed shitpost was not on my 2025 bingo card!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂get it??? 😂😂😂because his name is bingo??(GETS SHOT)

these are all things he has done or has attempted to do so consider this the full intro post for that freak for now. he’s still too undercooked to fully introduce but damn I love him

#pdbc #I love him. he’s the sole descendant of a royal family and. if you’ll pardon the pun. is royally fucking things up for himself #he could do so much in life and instead decides to be the next Gordon Ramsay……..such wasted potential #did. did I ever mention that part of him. his clan is called the Ramsay clan after all #he wants to be Gordon Ramsay sooooo fucking bad…….#big theater kid gone wrong energy from him #so many of my posts this year have been pdbc related. it Will happen again.#< (in my defense I’m working on other non-pdbc stuff !! but pdbc stuff is easy to make because I don’t have to think about it)#once I’m not so burnt out I’m really excited to design bingo….not even going to attempt to rn #I hate designing outfits but I’m actually looking forward to his bc he has a horrid mix of royal garments and astereotypical butcher outfit #speaking of butchers. butcher vanity? great song absolutely fits him. cannot stop listening to it #surprisingly him being like. a literal cannibal isn’t even all he does. that’s just a…little quirk of his #like ya’d think him eating people would be more important but nah. he’s a POET and a MAGICIAN 😤😤#I’d say he’s one of the most evil characters but…..kinda all of my characters are #sure bingo tries to eat people and bomb people’s homes but there are side characters who put acid in the water supply and aren’t punished #so bingo’s just par for the course honestly #the best thing he’s ever done is install an air conditioning unit. there wasn’t one before bc Mole (his mom) didn’t like them—#—which resulted in people keeling over from heat exhaustion a lot so. good job for fixing that bingo #it’s the bare minimum but that’s pretty good for him so he can have a round of applause for that #I think I might have mentioned Gerbombs in passing but I love them sm #they’re gerbils genetically engineered to blow up when pressure is placed on them #they’re adorable. thankfully they have no concept of death so they’re just chilling with no worries in the world #before you get sad. Sushi rescued most of the Gerbombs and now cares for them so happy ending #no Gerbombs shall die under her watch. I don’t think I could deal with it if too many Gerbombs died #although they’re called Gerbombs they’re actually more physically close to jerboas #they’re so cute. I should draw a Gerbomb sometime #(I should also probably rename them jerbombs considering they’re not gerbils but ehhhhhhhhhhhhh)

rare moment of emotional perceptiveness from ron

#i wont wax poetic about this being a ronarry moment bc he’s kinda meeting a bare minimum here #but i suppose it’s interesting that hes a lot more perceptive of harry’s moods than he is of anyone else’s #harry almost never needs to spell out his emotions to ron. (barring ofc when ron is blinded #by his own insecurities and subsequent jealousy)#it makes sense bc theyre best friends but nevertheless. worth noting ✍️#ronarry #ron weasley #hp4

Ppl in fandom will be like "look at how loving this family is! look at these AMAZING parents! They love their child so much!!! #FamilyGoals!"

and then the family is literally the most toxic and dysfunctional relationship in actual canon.

#text #looks at the monkie kid and cookie run fandoms #ppl act like the bare minimum is revolutionary for how a parent treats their child #literally saw someone say that because dark choco got cake for his birthdays it meant cacao was the best father ever #like...birthday cake? the thing majority of ppl get for their birthday. the STAPLE of a stereotypical birthday? thats how low the bar is?#or how ppl said that DBK was actually a good father because he called Red son 'son' in s2 special #or how iron fan was a good mom because she didn't let Red son get hit by DBK like....#y'all are praising ppl for the BARE MINIMUM HERE. SHIT THAT IS REQUIRED TO BEING A PARENT.#fandom is so annoying sometimes is2g

something happened to me for like 2 weeks but we're so back

#i became entirely nocturnal basically . sleeping at 10am wakeing up at like...2 to 4pm . and then being just super exhausted #i spent the whole time doing nothing like literally accomplished nothing which is terrible bc i have soooo much to do #like so many applications to submit and i have to write my dissertation etc etc #also i havent taken vyvanse for like 3.5 weeks despite the fact that it actually started to work bc for some reason #smth in my body is like . massive alarm system !!!DO NOT TAKE THIS PILL!!! when i feel exhausted #i think i have the unconscious association of the feeling of like...exhaustion w the vyvanse ? bc the initial side effects were horrible #yk how getting blackout drunk might make you repulsed by the scent of that drink or foods you ate while drinking it etc #its like that but w vyvanse . anyway #but no yesterday it was my friends birthday so i barely slept which for some reason worked well (usually even if i pull 2 consecutive all #nighters ill STILL go to sleep at like . 7am at minimum) and today is my best friends birthday so were going out again etc #and i think i forget that not going out and not talking to people actually does fuck my physical health up #like even if im eating enough and sleeping enough if i have 0 activity ill still end up like . lethargic and useless #anyway #yeah #LETS GO #anyway took vyvanse today . also i finally have dextroamphetamine for boosters

It seems that women nowadays have higher standards (as they should) and are succeeding on their own and in community with other women better than ever before and instead of improving themselves and trying to be better people as well, men decide that they're going to double down on their misogyny in order to cope with how inept, dull and lackluster the majority of them are.

#misogyny #patriarchy #there's so many women who would make excellent mothers and partners and then you look at men and BARELY any of them can match up #decentre men from your life #best thing a woman can do for herself #men can cope and seethe #like men whine that women are unreasonable when most of them have BARE MINIMUM surface level expectations that are actually reasonable #women aren't being unreasonable AT ALL men are just pissy that women won't tolerate the disrespect abuse their moms and grandmas endured

sirius trying to give himself affirmations like “it’s normal to feel” “it’s normal to want” after meeting and knowing james

#because something being okay isn’t a reason to do it #normal is something else completely #relearning how to human through their friends basically #i’m not ok #posting about sirius again #this isn’t for eyes #being the best isn’t necessarily a want when it’s the bare minimum and also the maximum you can be #it just is something that is a part of you

were there any pre canon concepts for adrien's/felix's room? i hate the canon one so much the layout confuses me

Afraid not. I think the closest we have is the information that Felix/ Adrian's family owned a hotel (this is before he was made into the villain's son.) A lot of early and even current ladybug is pretty focused around Marinette. Nathan-Felix-Adrien as a character is shockingly inconsequential to the narrative as a whole. (Which is probably why he was so easily edited throughout development whereas Marinette stayed pretty consistent.... And is also apparently still the case from what I've heard of the recent season.)

You can actually really see a lot of the inspiration that it transferred to the agreste mansion... But it also lost a lot of style and flair. Richard had a lot of art deco inspiration in the buildings associated with his character. And you can kind of see that in the hotel piece here. It's all connected, at least I believe it is.

It makes sense that the current one is frustrating. It's a mix between " oh this is what a fabulously wealthy teen boy would like" being full of video games and literal arcade machines, but still having like no personality? Like it's big. Because Adrian is rich. And it's like... Largely undecorated because Gabriel is like a minimalist or whatever... Except for all of the stuff that Adrian has because he's rich. And that's literally the end of it.

Edit: If I were to fathom a... A room that does line up with that hotel era then I would do something like this, except with more whites and golds rather than blue... Or just tailor it to however the cat's relationship to his father is.

#It's like go one way or the other man #is he overprotected and not allowed to express himself? then give him the bare bones room with nothing but the bookshelves.#or is he spoiled and sheltered where he can literally do whatever the fuck he wants to his apartment-sized room.#I never particularly like depicting Felix as a character who benefits from his father's wealth #largely because I'm caught between that crossroad of not really wanting to depict a rich character #but also you can't divorce that from Felix's narrative and still indulge in him being related to Richard #my favorite depiction is that sure his family is rich. But his father is also incredibly strict.#Felix gets the bare minimum. he gets a room. he gets a bed. he gets a desk. And because Rich is a generous soul... A bookshelf #but this isn't your house boy. And if you want to live here then you have to live by my rules and you have to fulfill my requirements #he has no rights to privacy. he has no rights to a space of his own. he has no rights to pick his hobbies. not while he's living there #and it's all painted in that bright white because if anyone's going to be a minimalist it's going to be Richard Sphinx #no wonder Felix likes to escape into books or hide at the library or spend his time in the park #no wonder he takes so easily to being chat when his life is like this #in Stark contrast to private Jets and literal yacht vacations and the best toys that daddy's money can buy energy that Adrian gives off

the ezra/toonimal doc is so fuckin weird to me, like i get why it got posted, i'm against doxing even people like this on principal, but i understand the desire to protect the kids involved and stop any criminal activity beyond that. but even then like. it's not reducing harm to post it with the usernames of kids uncensored for anyone viewing the Public doc to see. "oh we censored it though" do a better job.

#tbh after looking into it more a lot of the 'evidence' feels suspect at best #like as someone that understands how mastodon's federation works it feels disingenuous to act like ezra/toonimal had #any control at all over the people not on their instance?#also might just be a bit pissed that one of the screenshots that wasn't censored #includes the discord pfp and username of a minor that i personally know #like wow did you get the clout you fucking cretin #i'm seething with rage over this in case it wasn't blatantly obvious #like if you're gonna Pretend to give a shit about minors being exposed to harm at least do the bare fucking minimum #to keep them protected from bad actors viewing your doc #sick to my stomach thinking that this isn't an isolated incident and Multiple uncensored names are just minors #because it means anyone viewing the doc that's willing to abuse kids is gonna see it and can be confident they won't talk

gwen n miles are actually forced as hell ngl

#Like...y'all had knew each other for like 2 days #Had one conversation #And went your separate ways for a year and a half and are so sprung on each other...for what #There's actually like...no development for them romantically in a realistic way #Im not shown why would miles be hung up on some girl and consistently drawing her when he barely knows her #Or why gwen is suddenly pinning over miles despite only wanting to be friends now she's obsessed over him when she's obvs met and bonded #More with other ppl during her stay at ss vs only knowing miles for a day and having one long convo it makes no sense #I see nothing special and deep about their relationship other than they're the main male and female leads so let's throw them together #With the bare minimum 'development' because ppls standards are so low they'll suck it up anyways and claim it as 'best superhero romance'#Despite it being just as cliche boring and stereotypical as the other superhero romances they claim isn't as good like plz be ffr

How are you? What are your plans for this weekend?

They still haven't restocked my pink lemonade

Now I'm drinking apple juice like some kind of freak

I want strawberries, but The Creature (economical inflation) demands my left kidney for it

Bad. It's been bad, Anon. I hope your days are better than mine

Was hoping to go to the cinema this weekend, but I don't wanna risk it burning down like that one bowling alley on my birthday

#yesterday was especially bad #The thing about being on expensive medicine is that part of you hopes it doesn't work so at you can justify not buying it #Because if it does work. and it actually makes me better. it means the only thing standing between me and good health is-#-a monthly payment of a substantial amount of money that could've gone for food. That It costs so much just to reach the bare minimum health #other people take for granted #what's worse is that the knowledge you'll rely on it for the rest of your life #I rather be disappointed from the start than gain hope only to have it snatched away #I can't fall if I don't fly #I need to stop giving people the benefit of the doubt and just start ditching the second something seems off #then I have the audacity to act surprised when they turn out to be awful #maybe I wasn't built for friendship maybe being a hermit comes with being a writer #there can't be something wrong with all of these tens of people I keep leaving. could there? It's statically unlikely. extremely.#I'm the one common factor #I fixed so much how am i still stuck at the starting point. how am I still difficult. this is the best version of me i could ever amount to #my hair looks pretty tho. recently washed it and the curls are really curling #i look hot at least. i have this one thing going for me. being chronically sick results in a nice figure who could've guessed #yay. sxual obejctz. i win. woo

There are two wolves inside me. One is trying to convince me to do extensive research for the job interview tomorrow and the other is saying “wing it”

#there’s yet another that’s saying ‘cancel it’ but no i want to do this #i’m just sick of working from home. it has made me realise that i have zero ability to self-motivate myself or to set up a schedule #and stick to it #(case in point: i’m on here at 10:19 on a thursday morning instead of working)#thank god i don’t have concrete deadlines to stick to because i would’ve failed all of them and gotten fired #anyway. to be honest i don’t know how much research i NEED to do? like i don’t know what they’re going to ask me #it’s either going to be a super informal interview where they basically have already made up their minds to hire me if i seem credible #or it’s going to be a long drawn-out process of structured interview questions and ‘tell me about a time you went above and beyond at work’#which… is a GARBAGE question i’m sorry. above and beyond??? girl i earned minumum fucking wage at my last job #i’ll go above and beyond when you pay me more than the bare fucking minimum. £12 an hour?? you’re lucky i showed up and didn’t steal stuff #i think my ‘research’ is just going to be making shit up to be honest #i have figured out where this place is geographically. i have looked at the website (which mostly just had pictures of a big pool)#i want to look at coshh guidelines and shit again and i want to make up some stories about me being an exemplary employee #because i know that just having been slightly above average is not enough. i’ve been slightly above average at most things my whole life #and it’s never enough #tbh i might just print out the job description and highlight the parts i already fit (so i know to talk about that in the interview)#and then find ways to make it look like i COULD fit the parts i don’t fit. or could learn to do so #i don’t want to doooooo this i hate job interviews. i hate bureaucracy #i hate having to beg for a job from companies that should be begging people to work for them #considering the fucking insane amount of duties they want to give you for fucking minimum wage. but anyway #if you need me i’m going to fight with my printer. it’s trying its best but ‘its best’ is not good #personal

People who offer solutions to my problems should all be required to take part in a 30 day free trial of living with all of my conditions just to ensure that their helpful tips are realistic and not actually just one more obstacle on the list of never ending obstacles that I have to manage everyday

#listen i dont hate getting advice or well meant suggestions #however i am exhausted and overwhelmed and constantly managing the maximum amount of things i can manage #i would like real help #i also would like to see how other people manage my conditions because i honestly dont know if im naybe just being a baby about it or not #like i wanna know how this effects other people but also would never wish this upon someone #i just need to know that I'm doing my best #or if im not i need to know what i can do better #i just reeeeally dont think my friends understand the amount of energy that it takes to barely manage #im at the point where i spend half the week resting in preparation to take a shower and do the dishes #and the other half recovering from doing them #if i even did #yes i dont shower very often i know its gross blah blah blah #its usually like 4 days between showers atm i think #dishes is like one to two weeks tho #i cant keep up with even the bare minimum amount of things and it sucks #all of the real solutions cost money #i also hate to list all of the ways that the help is not helpful when people are trying to help #because then i sound like i dont want help :(( i sound bitter and mean #and i dont wanna come across that way

Being multigender really is just struggling to not let people pick one of your genders over another yknow

#like i gotta prove that im a man with all my might because nobody irl thinks im one #but if i insist too much then they forget im also a woman #and being both a gnc woman and gender conforming man makes it really difficult #because one theres always gonna be things about me people will consider inherently feminine no matter what #my figure. my voice. etc #so at best theyll consider me andorgynous or a feminine man whos also a woman #its complicated. i dont get much dysphoria but most of what i do get is social #and just. frustration that so few people will actually see me the way i want to be seen #like im nonbinary yes but i dont go by they/them and both binary genders equally apply to me #yes im a man and yes im a woman no i dont fluctuate between them im both 100% of the time #yes i consider myself masculine and no i do not relate to femininity #no i dont want to quote on quote try harder to be masculine. i just am i like how i look and i feel masculine and thats good enough #i have adhd and doing the bare minimum to manage my health each day is hard enough #do i look like i want to do anything else #idk why i went on a ramble but anyway. wish i could magically make people see me and my gender the way i want to be seen
