I love Tumblr’s media hot takes that are just fridge logic taken to an overdrawn conclusion. “Did the writer even think about the implications of x??” No. They didn’t. They wrote a funny little haha story and hoped you would enjoy it.

You think Martha deserved better because you think her being attracted to Ten is some moral failing she needed to correct I think Martha deserved better bc the misogynoir in S3 in the show and fandom was so rampant that Freema Agyeman, other Black and mixed actors and fans are dealing with the repercussions over a decade later we're not the same
#I do think Martha deserved better bc she did but it has nothing to do with the crush#i used think the crush was the issue but honestly how it affects “Martha discourse” is worse bc it overshadows everything#there are so many things from S3 to unpack but its everyday “she was obsessed with Ten” like there's bigger fish to fry abeg#martha jones#doctor who series 3#doctor who series three#doctor who#doctor who fandom#fandom antiblackness#black representation#dr who fandom#dw fandom

it's ironic that accounts saying they "block klk shippers" and "don't want to interact with proshippers" can always find something to say in my posts/reblogs. while I, a kaeluc shipper, personally have the "ragbros" tag blocked because I do not want to accidentally share something with a romantic context in mind, in case op is uncomfortable with that.
because I know how to put my own, as well as respect other's, boundaries in online spaces.
because I know that every single thing isn't meant for me and everyone has their own preferences.
because I know it's not only weird but also rude to go out of my way to put someone down for their interests or hard work.
but sure, call me the immoral one here for liking a fictional relationship between two fictional characters—who, keep in mind, I first started liking on the grounds that they were previously sworn brothers.
#honestly. HONESTLY. COME AT ME#I won't be mad I'll even fight you if you want my attention that badly#but don't go scrolling through my account and bash on the creators of the beautiful fanart I've reblogged#your fight should be with ME#leave them alone#if you're gonna make a promise on your intro post at the very least have the integrity to pull through lmao#the block button is there and it's free fucking real estate why are you HERE#I'm not??? even??? a big blog???? are you just that fucking lifeless you've run out of big fish to fry that you settled for me????#honestly you are unwell i hope you feel better soon lol#kaeluc#luckae#kaeluckae#genshin impact#ship discourse#shipping discourse#genshin discourse#fandom discourse#kaeya alberich#diluc ragnivindr#ragbros#diluc#kaeya#kaeluc anti#bee.texts

This is either some serious lore or IMDb has some serious explaining to do. What do you mean that Glen Powell is going to play Rooster and Miles Teller is playing Hangman. Did they just switch roles... Who wrote this with all the confidence in the world and no one checked their work. A multi-million dollor movie and people can't keep their actors straight.

I'm on ep5 of LOK and remembering why I have never gotten past the first season of this show. The love triangle shit is driving me INSANE in the worst of ways. It feels like fucking high school drama.
I will stick it out... because I have heard the show gets better... and also the promise of endgame Korra and Asami.... I will stick it out this time....!!!!
But God. It's so annoying 😭😭😭😭
#speculation nation#i will stay strong. i WILL... i will....#the thing is like. atla always had the romance subplots & some jealousy plots. but it was like#they had bigger fish to fry. at the end of the day the romance was never the prime focus#bc they were fighting a War! and they were younger than the LOK team too#it never felt so heavy-handed in atla. in LOK it just feels so Forced....#doesnt help that im like. man Bolin really would be better for Korra than Mako.#stop paying attention to a wishy washy guy who wont even pay 100% attention to his own girlfriend (who's not you!!!!!)#i rly do like Bolin and Korra's interactions. but also the way the writing is pushing Bolin's crush on her kinda sucks#bc i think theyd be best as bros. genuinely.#and i Know we get the f/f ending but god DAMN im still. ugh ugh ugh. what a time.#also barely relevant but who was the lady Tenzin was seeing before his wife. im so curious#this man is so stiff howd he get TWO women falling for him like that??!#ALSO... the fact that ep 4 is so heavy on the fear and seriousness. then ep 5 is just like. oh no! love triangles!#hfkshfksd ive been enjoying some of the show but rn i am so annoyed by it hfkshfkd#i will stay strong... i will... it will be worth it to stick it out....... I Will...!!!!#fanny watches lok

The most Minnesotan thing just happened. Mr61below got paid in freshly-caught walleye 🥰
I also used a new to me ‘beer free beer batter’ recipe that turned out Absolutely Fucking Stellar:
1 c gluten free flour (I use the ATK blend)
1 c arrowroot starch
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cajun seasoning
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
12 oz sparkling water
Fry for ~3 min per side in a lot of avocado oil. They came out CRACKLING 😍
#meanwhile in minnesota#gluten free fish fry#(((I miss beer but I really gd prefer how much better I feel without alcohol)))

i get slightly annoyed when people make community posts that tell ppl to stop doing xyz and use the phrases "they're a FICTIONAL character, theyre NOT REAL" to justify whatever theyre saying because:
1) everyone knows that already, we're all aware these are blorbos from our media;
2) if someone is genuinely struggling to grasp that because of a delusion or similar, a forceful reality check is only going to cause harm rather than help;
3) it just feels so needlessly patronizing;
4) most of the time whatever I see people complaining about is either smth that I never see anyone doing or if it is smth somebody is doing then the block button is a very quick and effective fix for the issue (or even a quick convo w the person in DMs can resolve issues!)
(granted I keep my following circle very small and probably miss a lot but if i can do that then perhaps... perhaps other people can do it too fhfkdl like just prune back whatever u dont like seeing! unfollow or block as needed!)
#speaking as someone who has experienced and occasionally still experiences delusions!!!#reality checks do not help unless we ask for them directly! it's only going to make things worse if u force one on us!#also yes im aware of the hypocrisy of me making a post complaining abt things#but its often just this one phrase that i will see in otherwise decent posts that go around#and im not about to unfollow ppl just bc of this one phrase being used in a post or two that they might've rbed fhfjdl#also this is a niche thing to know about i think? like i dont think most ppl know a lot about delusions#.... as evidenced by ppl using delulu as a quirky meme word. god that one makes me tired and frustrated fjfkdl#but yeah normally i keep complaints and annoyances to myself but this one i figured might actually be helpful to talk about here#since i know theres probably a lot of ppl who have no idea that this is a thing that can actually make things worse rather than better#and like. theres bigger fish to fry i know that! this is a relatively small thing all things considered#but i feel like perhaps if i can make life a little easier for one other person who struggles w mental health then its worth it#if i can convince one person to be more mindful of their language to make the world slightly safer for fellow mentally ill folks then yay!#and i know the internet doesnt need to cater to us crazies but fhdkdl it'd be cool if ppl could just be a tad kinder or more thoughtful#again! not shaming or blaming and I'm not even upset w anyone#ppl genuinely just do not know abt this stuff unless a loved one or they themselves struggle w delusions or psychosis etc#and even then oftentimes its such a stigmatized topic that even ppl who struggle w it themselves might not know or realize it#anyways. climbing down off my soapbox like a kitten clumsily climbing off of a tall couch SBDJSKL#dandy.cmd

male betta fish are better parents than pandas are
#out of all the fish in my aquarium spangle would be the better parent#male bettas guard their bubble nests with their lives#they maintain and keep them clean and if an egg or a fry falls out they gently pick them up in their mouths and put them back in#they do this until the fry are old enough to swim and fend for themselves#it's really adorable actually#hades.txt

I think the most important part of the Dr*p*ut statement is a reminder that they can’t do much and calling your reps/donating money does WAY MORE to help the actual people who are being killed
#like really people there’s far bigger fish to fry#fandom wank#the disk horse#if people spent this same amount of energy on their local elections and school board races#we’d be a much better country

#so the british putting vinegar on french fries#led to the rise of salt and vinegar potato chips stateside#I'm guessing based on the mutual that I reblogged this from that it's also popular in Australia#like this is not me hating on the concept of#vinegar on potato#I get why you do it and I get why it works#though limon chips are definitely an improvement on this flavor idea imho#still that is a fish and chips specific condiment choice#like vinegar is not going to pair well with a burger#like you might be able to get it to work because ketchup has vinegar in it#but if you're putting ketchup on your burger#then you might as well put ketchup on your fries too#i realize that not all ketchups are created equal but#tomato ketchup is an american invention#if your ketchup doesn't taste good on fries get good I guess#but yeah as far as I'm aware#vinegar and potato as a flavor combo is pretty specific to the anglosphere and even then exact specifics vary from country to country#most everywhere else goes with ketchup or mayo#depends on your mayo of course#as like ketchup not all mayos are created equal#and some would pair much better with a french fry than others#side note i hope to god y'all are using vinegar powder and not dunking your fries into#like#a cup of liquid vinegar#side note I'd bet money that most if not all of the people who picked mayo#are from europe but not the uk#using the uk and not england specifically because i'm not 100% sure#what scotland and wales do with french fries#and I'm not invested enough to find out#so I'm using including them in the vinegarzone just to be safe

NYWAY I need my mom's opinion and approval of having multiple personalities and that's why I can't accept or integrate and that's why I don't have other friends :/
#it's. just.going . to be like. the same thing again.#but im wrong. i wont know until i ask. but jesus christ. could i just ask?#it doesn't have to be a coming out which I'll never do again#but i can't fully participate or stop driving myself down and i don't even know what to say except...#the purpose of a system is what the system *does* and not what it's supposed to do.#and right now... things have been harder than they have been better. maybe. it's hard to tell.#... ... ... ... ... ... .... ... .mmm#jesus fucking christ I've got real fish to fry. at least Kel is cool#fine I'll stop tiptoeing around it.#dostoyevsky

ohhhhh MAN ive been listening to a lot of amigo the devil lately which means that i have more blorbo from my brain thoughts
I'm going to heaven + a drop for every hour are both brutus songs
different anymore is a khetzal song
Another man's grave + cannibal within + the mechanic are all razar songs
shadow + its all gone are bailey songs
24K casket is a lucky shot song
One day at a time is a novice song
stray dog is a null song
once upon a time in texaco is a roupgaruke song (as already established)
virtue and vitriol is a hellkite song
hanging by the roots is a gazer song
small stone is a kakisto song
murder at the bingo hall is a bang song
agnes is both a fane AND a tyto song
closer is a roach song
quiet as a rat is for lucky shot + lungfish + bailey
#howling#if you arent up to date on mortally coiled (my ocverse) lore this whole post is probably nonsense#anyways the only songs i left out in this list from born against + yours till the war is over are#better ways to fry a fish + letters from death row + garden of leaving#because theyre either way too specific (better ways to fry a fish)#or i just do NOT feel comfortable turning them into blorbo songs (letters from death row + garden of leaving)#<- those two songs specifically just. fuck man#theyre really good but i kind of have to force myself to listen all the way though because of the subject matters#like holy shit man. they hit like a fucking truck and it hurts like one too

Oh to be a starbucks customer and to complain about such trivial things I truly wish those were my biggest worries
#had a woman call and complain to me#because she waited forever for her drink#and she was standing in the wrong spot to pick it up#and none of us told her#so we are the worst humans ever because we let her wait#in that spot#because you know she couldnt ask us#hey my drink seems to be taking a long time#is this where i pick it up#yes we could have done better#but also really#that is what ruined your day#enough that you had to call and complain to me#over our starbucks being laid out different than yours#that the area labeled mobile order pick up#wasnt enough for you to know thats for mobiles#my bad sorry#ill tell my team to do better#give you full princess treatment next time#and also the person who didnt get mocha drizzle on her drink#and now demands it remade#really a drizzle not being on your drink?#especially depending on your drink#you arent paying extra for it#like okay#whatever once again#if that is really what will ruin your day#i have bigger fish to fry

i normally dont replay routes but i think i will replay asagi.... i get why ppl dont like it bcs tbh it is POORLY executed and honestly.. objectively speaking i should have hated it bcs his route was so shit.
