Nothing real anymore in the world of the tired influencer

Ain't sleeping deep waiting for an answer

Gotta press on

Brown eyes

I'll always keep you close beside me

Billing trees that's the way it's meant to be

Idk, I'm listening to random songs and suddenly had the idea of drawing them to this

“It was a different time.” I hear that a lot up in the hills.

Gotta press on brown eyes

I always keep you close beside me

Million dreams

‘Cause that’s the way it's meant to be

shoutout to Jake Animorphs for being kinda uninteresting for like forty books and then hitting you so hard when he fully snaps and steps into his role as a hardened military leader at the age of sixteen

and then suddenly that sweet, stressed-out kid is just gone. he only exists to win wars anymore. it makes you realize too late what was lost

I know I talked about Kyra dressing up as Azul and Adeuce dressing up as the Tweels, but i think i just came up with something even better

Kyra dressing up as Azul for April Fools’ day, and Floyd and Jade just playing along😭😭 They go way too far than necessary for this silly prank too, deciding to open up another Mostro Lounge using Ramshackle

Best part is?? The ENTIRE school is in on it. Azul’s record is definetly not clean and there are a handful of students who have some animosity towards him but are too scared to show it— so now they get to join in the fun and play the part of a waiter or even a chef in this new “Mostro Lounge” for the fun of it

Kyra goes around, Floyd and Jade behind her and they genuinely do follow her around the whole day, playing along and pretending like shes actually Azul😭

She gives people business cards and is so over the top with her dramatics, she even gets her own portable spotlight to use. She drags in anyone she can in her antics, too. Sorry Heartslabyul! But Kyra’s gonna be borrowing your Vice Housewarden for a little while! Shes sure Kalim won’t mind helping her out too, right? She might as well get her good friend Hornton in on it too!

Its the funniest thing ever, because they even have their own menu. Its mostly just a copy of the actual Mostro Lounge’s menu, but theres a notable increase in the amount of octopus dishes available to order.

All in all, Kyra is way too into this ‘prank’ and this whole act, and everyone else is a little too into it too. A memorable April Fools day for everyone! Unfortunately, for Azul too. Who, wasn’t very amused when he found out about all of this from Elena. (Especially towards the Tweels.)

us-ians try not to fuck up this election and vote blue challenge (impossible) (they don't care about anyone but themselves) (they're unable to see the devastating consequences if that orange buffoon is re-elected) (they don't understand how their own government works) (voting blue is literally the only option you have if you want to survive past 2030. like there is literally no other fucking option. if you do not vote blue this year, so much blood will be on your hands you can't even imagine it i don't think) (us-ians are too shortsighted to see what will happen to the rest of the fucking world if their little orange dictator gets reelected and they. don't. care.)

like im sorry but i dont like that 'fictional characters are objects' post that acts like caring about the real life implications of how you treat a character is going into a purity spirals or what have you bc like. fandoms can be and are racist about characters of color. it doesnt reallly matter if the character isnt real, if you're racist abt a fictional character that can and does bleed over into real life and it does make fandom spaces actively hostile to actual poc. has anyone else here ever heard of RaceFail this has been going on for years and acting ignorant abt it isnt cute

it doesnt even really matter if op wasnt thinking abt race when they made that post bc if they make an incredibly broad statement like "any sort of 'unpleasant' treatment of a fictional character is ok bc its fictional and it doesnt reflect what kind of person you are in real life" that shuts down any criticism of it as being obsessed with purity optics then they are in fact giving a pass to people being racist, sexist, pedophilic, etc to various characters. people are in fact racist in real life because of fandom and it starts with how they treat characters like that bc it then gives a message to other people in the community what kind of behavior is allowed and who is welcome there (and who is excluded)

The thing about Jayce and Mel is that like. She does not view him as an investment. That is just certifiably false. You have to skip over all her scenes to believe that.

In the beginning she does! She absolutely does! She conceives of their relationship as a business one - where she makes profit off his inventions, and he profits from her business and political acumen, both monetarily and powerwise. And overall, she believes she's fulfilled her half of the bargain.

It's only when he comes back to her after Viktor gets sick that she realizes he believes this is something deeper. And it's notable that she responds to that emotion - she opens up about herself too, comforts him, and expresses real emotionality about it. It's then that we see his ideals start to influence her - especially reawakening in her a desire for nonviolence.

Wanting to do things peacefully is something that's been with her since she was a child. It is what guides her away from Noxus, because her pacifism just does not fit there. It's why she loved Piltover so - they aren't a violent expansionist empire, which is a really low bar, but that's what she's grown up in.

She never finds the violence in Zaun, because she never goes looking for it. This is her fault, and her flaw, let me make that clear. She has some of the most power in the city, and should know about what kind of violence is holding up, and work to resolve it, truly. But she doesn't, because she's focused on her own exploits, and has so insulated herself away from the class struggle that it does not register for her until it grows to violence.

And then, once that violence comes, she maintains that pacifism with an iron grip, more than Jayce himself. It is Jayce who constructs (almost) all the HexTech weapons that are used in the Undercity, in Caitlyn's police squadron. He betrays the oaths that he's made to his partner, where Mel keeps the promise she's made to her's. She is the only politician left to try to tamp down on the worst of Ambessa's instincts, and her removal from Piltover is what marks it's descent into militarism.

She is ultimately a complicated woman, with a bunch of interesting relationships to Piltover and Zaun. I think you can divide Piltover as a city neatly between her, Jayce, and Caitlyn - each of them standing for some of Piltover's best instincts, and some of its worst.

Mostly screaming into the void with this one but I'm almost to the end of earning my Bachelor's and I've got something to say.

It is not edgy or subversive to redirect your hatred onto animals that you deem morally impure or to try and yassify misunderstood creatures.

"Sea otters assault their females to death and drown their pups" they are still a cornerstone species worth protecting and whole ecosystems are suffering for the loss of them.

"Sharks are just ocean puppies and big sweeties." No they're not, they are apex predators and you have to treat them with respect. Saying they're not capable of aggression or completely misunderstood is still spreading misinformation, you cannot generalize a group of animals like this.

"Dolphins are super smart and actually capable of understanding that some of their behaviors are evil" I am actually going to break into your house and steal your shoes if you say this to me.

"Charismatic megafauna are useless and overrated and taking away from underappreciated species that Really need our help" wrong again dipshit. Animals like pandas, elephants, whales, and others that I'm sure you're tired of seeing plastered everywhere are important to get the general public involved. It's called PR (and while I wish it wasn't necessary and that people would care regardless I digress) and what conservation work IS done based around them is advantageous to other threatened species that share their habitat.

As someone going into the field of ecological conservation and marine biology, I have met one too many people who think it's okay to say a certain animal doesn't deserve to be protected because it makes them feel yucky or just because they think it doesn't deserve it. I shouldn't have to tell you why that is SO not okay. The underappreciated and overrated can both exist, you don't need to proselytize people into hating dolphins just so sharks can get their dues.

You're also allowed to just dislike an animal! But if you sensationalize their behaviors that are morally incorrect by human standards, then I am begging you to reevaluate yourself, get more educated on the subject, and talk to a real ecologist.

No creature on this planet deserves to be eradicated just because you are personally offended by their natural behaviors or deem them unfit to take up space.

i know i just said goodnight but instagram reminded me that white usamerican christian influencers are the most annoying self absorbed entitled weirdos out there.

i fully understand praying for your class or for individual students but do it without telling the whole world, don't monetise it on your social media, maybe get consent from the kids and parents.

i know this kinda thing is deeply nuanced and often controversial but i also know that having your religion as part of your life is deeply and personally important AND that these sorts of posts are just subtle and unnecessary attempts to say that you've got some sort of moral high ground because of your beliefs and that your overstepping of boundaries and possible attempts for convert kids are all okay because it's in the name of religion

it's weird as hell and everyone knows that if a teacher of any other religion were to post the same things there would be uproar, the entitlement of white usamerican christians is wild and these kind of posts do nothing but harm others, mainly christians who can be normal and ppl with other beliefs who have to see this nonsense celebrated regularly

if i were a student in that class i would feel uncomfortable with my teacher bragging about and making money from praying for me. that prayer is no longer private, it's no longer between one person and god, now the whole world has been allowed in.

i have no issue with teachers praying for their students, i have no issue with anyone praying for anyone else, i have huge issues with turning those prayers into social media clout and financial gain. once you're making money from those prayers, they stop being genuine.

also what the fuck do you mean "his fragrance" and is this some new religion worshipping jeremy fragrance because if so then i'm down to join i've seen that freaks posts i think he's odd
