My Father of English Descent: The English Monarchy is the best form of government! All of the countries that are ruled by the English are so lucky! Being ruled by the English is the best! My Mother of Irish Descent:
#Notes by Nikki#colonialism#If I have to hear him talk about the fucking coronation one. more. time. I might have a fucking coronary#The English Monarchy#the coronation#king charles lll#can eat my ass#queen elizabeth ii#and no#they aren't married any more#it's way more complicated than just a divorce#suffice to say#but they do NOT agree on politics#thor meme#is it though?#is it though meme#I don't blame him for loving his mother's culture#but there is a huge difference between ''I like English books and food and music and all of those wonderful things''#and ''I like hereditary monarchies that depend on colonialism and genocide and racism and sexism to continue existing''

I have finally gotten myself together, and written the beginnings of my fake political marriage chengqing fix-it!
an excerpt from the first part:
Jiang Cheng was embarrassed to admit that this particular solution had occurred to him frequently after their last parting, when he was kept awake wondering about her safety. It wasn’t the most elegant solution, and definitely not his preferred solution, and it would easily create more problems than it solved, but… “What if we were engaged?” “Jiang Cheng, have you gone insane?” Wei Wuxian said, which was really rich coming from him of all people. Wen Qing looked like she agreed with him and this pained her.
and from the second:
“Jiang-zongzhu, I appreciate everything you are doing for me and my family,” Wen Qing folded her hands on her lap and stared him down imperiously, “But I have no intention of having sex with you.” Jiang Cheng wondered if the stress of the last week had finally pushed him over the edge and this was a hallucination caused by qi deviation. “I didn’t expect you to!”
#the untamed#mdzs#jiang cheng#wen qing#chengqing#wei wuxian#jgs is also there but I don't want to tag him#my writing#i am furthering my aro4aro married chengqing agenda!!!!#they will eventually be in a qpr but they haven't gotten there yet#this au has occupied. so much of my brain lately. so I'm very excited to post it!#it's really hard writing from this point in the story#bc both wwx and wq are not at their best and therefore aren't acting how they would usually#i'm excited to explore more of this au#both bad things (jc is now in close proximity to the people who did non-con surgery on him im sure this won't have any consequences)#and good things (wen yuan gets to grow up among jiang disciples and jin ling!)

"Why did Cecil mention Carlos's hair greying as if it hasn't been grey since the moment we met him??"
Possible Explanation: Finknor straight-up forgot somehow, or otherwise ignored it for the sake of the bit
Reasonable Explanation: Cecil is being sarcastic/passive-aggressive, this is just a character moment to show that he's still pissed at Carlos
Unhinged Explanation: THE SCIENTISTS MESSING WITH PORTALS FUCKED UP THE TIMELINE AGAIN, AND IT'S AFFECTING CARLOS'S HAIR ALA THE TELLY ENDING OF EP 133 ARE YOU SURE
#That last one is maybe probably definitely not true but can you imagine if that was actually foreshadowing#Next thing we know Cecil's mentioning he and Carlos aren't married yet again#And it'll be a 50/50 chance whether they got divorced or it's timeline/AU shenanigans yet again#FOR LEGAL REASONS THAT IS A JOKE I DON'T WANT CECILOS SPLITTING UP ANY MORE THAN YOU DO#welcome to night vale#wtnv#vince rambles#wtnv spoilers#carlos the scientist#cecil palmer#wtnv 234

me a week ago: i love my job!!
me now, after having a mid-year review that amounted to you’re doing an excellent job and you bring such a valuable perspective to our practice but i don’t have the ability to give you a raise right now but don’t worry bc i just hired a new CFO to try to figure out money so we can maybe give you a raise later this year: *breaks into a cold sweat as i crack open indeed dot com*
#like how have you hired FOUR new employees in the past year (two new providers a new admin assistant and now a CFO)#without having plans for people to level up?#also i have talked to a friend who got hired at a similar practice a few months after me and she’s already making way more than me!#and you know who else makes more than i do?#my 19yo nephew who didn’t even finish high school. to be fair he’s grinding way more than he should#but also so am i!!#my disabled ass is working 6-7 days/week almost every week and i can barely afford to LIVE in the city where i live!!!#anyway don’t mind me i’m only apartment hunting#while also knowing that my paycheck is about to be hundreds of dollars lighter every month bc my health insurance is about to kick in#right now it’s either looking like we are gonna have to live in the world’s shittiest apartment (not even in the nice part of the city) or#we might just have to find something outside the city. which would be farther from work and friends and everything#yes i am having a full mental breakdown every single day and it’s only gonna get worse bc i’m due to start pmsing any second now#and also my last day at my hospital job is this weekend#bc everyone (including my boss) has encouraged me to quit and focus on only the one job#so now that’s also at least a few hundred bucks more i won’t be making every month#godddddddd#i hate it here i hate it here#did you know? having a fulfilling job still sucks if you aren't fairly compensated???#this is also what happens when you are part of a hot girl profession where everyone else is married to husbands with tech jobs#so they don't have to worry about money like this#anyway anyway anyway#i have never had anxiety so high that i feel as if i might puke before and i used to have a panic disorder so this is a fun new experience#a nice cherry on top of the typical summer depression which is also beating my ass yet again!

Curse my inability to tell if someone is replying to me in bad faith or if I'm just bad at explaining myself
#i blame autism#yes this is about eggman v bowser#Eggman is eviler#mostly due to tone differences between sonic and mario#sonic is not afraid to get into the nitty gritty of the effect of eggman's actions on the characters#While mario mostly has to play it safe#as it is a more family friendly franchise#I would love to civially discuss who between all mario villians and sonic villians is the most evil#but we all know it's dimentio#Sonic usually stays on a global scale#while mario is free to explore multiple dimensions and entire galaxies#Mario also has less dialog and story focus making it harder to gauge bowser's character#If we regard the movie as canon his marrying of peach is part of a global domination scheme#but everything is dubiously canon with mario#sonic fans will really just jump at any oppurtunity to rail someone for how they interpret a character#like if you dislike the comics just don't read them#if enough people do that#they'll stop making them#The comics aren't canon anyway

mulder and diana literally have the most intense divorced energy anyone could ever have...they have the chemistry of two people who've been married for decades and maybe don't wanna be married anymore, maybe aren't married anymore, but once you're married you're grandfathered in. you're always married. haven't touched each other in years, go most days not even considering the other, but owe each other something, and aren't sure of what it is. diana lies and lies and lies to his face, and then dies to save him. she feels entitled to him, she knows what's best for him, what's his is theirs. always. she was there when he got it. she helped him build it. (she tells him herself: "don't forget that"). so much of what she does appears as she's trying to establish a claim over him, but she doesn't have to try. she just is. she's irreproachable. you don't talk about the wife. (and you don't talk to her, as scully and diana arguing is met only with mulder's impatient, "scully...scully...scully.")
any time she comes up in conversation, his friends are uncomfortable. i love the way byers goes "well....yeah?" when scully asks if he knows diana. he says it like he's surprised that scully didn't know about her. when scully won't stop pressing mulder about diana in one son, all three of the boys tense up. the camera keeps going to their reactions. (you don't talk about the wife. they were there. "i always wondered why they split up.")
scully says "special agent diana fowley" as though maybe if she had one more title to throw in, she would disappear. diana says "fox" like she has something to prove. mulder says "diana" like it communicates everything he doesn't say. and in a way, it does. the first time scully heard him call agent fowley "diana," she knew.
#just because it isn't warm doesn't mean dd and mimi rogers didnt have chemistry#they have the chemistry of two people who played a married couple in a movie that ends with religiously motivated murder/suicide#they have cold ancient unsettling chemistry#watch any scene between the two of them and tell me it doesn't feel exactly like your parents silently moving through the house. saying#what they aren't saying#txf.txt#diana#the direction and camera placement in 'one son' frames scully as SO small#especially in that argument scene#they filmed it from mulder's eyeline/perspective#whereas typically scully's side would've been shot at her level (over his shoulder) or they would've put her on the box#but it's set up to where she is so small in front of him. and she FEELS small. and she is small. she's disadvantaged.#and it isn't fair. because where the fuck was diana? does having started it count more than following through? does having been there first#when gibson said that scully doesn't worry about what ANYONE thinks. 'except for her.'#what diana thinks matters. she's this looming figure with so much influence. and she IS irreproachable.#he won't let a word be said about her. she won't let anyone else have final say over him.#and more than anything else that's why i think they were married. more than the wedding ring in flashback episodes. more than the tension#they have this territoriality that feels very specific to divorce

#saw a friend today who decided on having kids now that she's getting married to her longtime boyfriend#i deeply appreciate that friend but i never got on board with how she speaks so matter-of-factly of having a baby#bc she believes she 'owes' her significantly older bf#another motivation seems to be that she just wants to be done with her job and become a sahm (crossong myself)#also shes annoyed by other kids but bought into the idea that 'it's different once they're yours'#well yeah for life and death reasons not because your child suddenly becomes a ray of sunshine 24/7#idk idk i see how she could manage somehow but she gets easily overwhelmed and dissatisfied as it is&says she doesn't have any savings so.#hm. worried.#also wanting to become pregnant to have a reason to stop smoking as if there aren't so many pregnant women smoking right this second#between this and my friend who keeps dating mentally unstable men in order to have a kid despite a risk of maternal death#and a another befriended couple that seems to be head over heels for getting pregnant asap despite some red flags#it feels very very isolating to be a woman right now#oh i forgot to vent that friend a seems to reject it when i say that statistically it can take like a year to get pregnant#and she also doesn't want to get tested.#like i get that since im not planning on kids rn and took active steps for birth control im more aware of the risks and statistics#but it's worrying how little some people want to think about things like money mental health physical etc before having kids

Brucie Wayne gets interviewed and the question who, expect Batman, is his favorite Gotham hero.
After some awkward moments of silence, he blurts out that it’s Spoiler. Since she is the only one from the main active team that isn’t his kid and this way he avoids picking a favorite.
Meanwhile, the group chats explodes into chaos instantly.
#she'd never let him live it down#and Alfred would keep teasing him about it#you could have finished your studies and married your college sweetheart but no you just had to go around the world to ''find yourself''#look at you now parading in the streets of Gotham in your furless fursuit grabbing all the stray kids you're able to lift#Why can't you be more like Harley?#Yes she became crazy but it was because she ended up in an abusive relationship and now she's getting back on the right track#Her relationship with Joker is also your fault by the way#because if you'd finished your studies and became a doctor with her none of this would have happened#After that Bruce refuses all interviews that aren't pre-programmed#Any journalist that asks him surprise questions gets banned from interviewing him for 3 months#batman#batfam shenanigans#harley quinn#alfred pennyworth#bruce wayne

I want to tell a story to the artists and would-be artists out there.
When I was 19, I made a large oil painting of the nerd I would eventually marry. I poured all my attention and care into this painting. It's the only art I have from back then that still holds up as a work I'm proud of today.
I entered it into a judged show at the local art center. It got an honorable mention. I went to see the show with my beloved model. One of the judges came up to talk to me, and highlighted that all the judges really liked the painting. It would have placed, except, you see, the feet were incorrect. They were too wide and short, and if I just studied a bit more anatomy-
I called over my future wife, and asked her to take off her shoe. Being already very used to humoring me, she did. The judge looked at her very short, very wide little foot. Exactly as I'd lovingly rendered it. I would never edit her appearance in any way.
The judge looked me in the eye, and to his credit, he really looked like he meant it when he said "Oh I'm so sorry."
Anyways the moral of the story is that all of those anatomy books that teach you proportions are either showing you averages, or a very specific idea of an idealized body. Actual bodies are much more varied than that.
So don't forget to draw from observation, and remember that humans aren't mass produced mannequins. Delight in our variation. Because it's supposed to be there.

maybe i'm just too aware of the meta but also it feels kind of impossible to avoid the meta of a dnd campaign. the copium is insane.
#i just think it's kind of hilarious that everybody BUT gideon's player has been putting in their two cents#MAYBE I JUST HAVEN'T SEEN EVERYTHING YET. BUT FROM WHAT I HAVE SEEN. IT'S JUST KIND OF FUNNY!#like the kremy can take three cocks joke is like woah haha funny scandalous blush but then i'm like. WOULD MACE MAKE THAT JOKE?#ABOUT KREMY?#i feel like i'm seeing beyond the veil. peaking behind the curtain. the people want them to be gay#therefore we must throw copius jokes about how much sex they're having so the people will clap and cheer#even if it doesn't really make sense for them to be having any sex at all considering how insanely repressed they both are#especially gideon. like. getting gay married was not enough to break the tension between them.#gideon only ever begrudgingly acknowledges kremy as his husband. IF HE DOES AT ALL.#gideon only plays the role of the distant emotionally unavailable husband so well BECAUSE HE'S FUCKING DISTANT!!!!!!#we laugh at their husband wife bickering but they're bickering because gideon Is Not fulfilling the role kremy wants him to fill#literally dying was not even enough to break the tension. least not for gideon. kremy at this point is all in#and gideon still!!!! does not notice!!!! and denies it!!!!!!!#from a character perspective i'm more than willing to take this as gideon having commitment issues and being repressed#but from a meta perspective i'm just like. does mace even want this????? everyone but him is in on it#and again so often it's jokes about them having sex with each other like BITCH I KNOW THEY AREN'T FUCKING!!!!! NO CHANCE!!!!!!#spose we shall see once it's off hiatus. here's hoping!

blessed be the death of MFT.
buckle up, STBFL, and ultimate weapon nerfs next please. 🙏
#dbd#thoughts about media#ONLY during deep wound? like good bye. most survivors aren't going to bother and will prioritise perks that are more simple and reliable.#this is going to stop a lot of survivors from just relying on this perk- and not any of their own skill- to loop killers forever.#super happy about the garden of joy and red forest changes incoming too.#I could handle red forest just fine with my two mains- ghostface & hux.#but there are some other killers who do not stand a chance on that map because of the sheer size of it.#and the garden of joy is...well it's one of the most poorly laid out maps in the game imo.#that main building window is a fucking ATROCITY.#even hux with rapid brutality & soma family photo struggles to catch up to a survivor looping that fucking stupid window.#and it's not like you can just ensure you ONLY get that map when you're doctor- who doesn't give a fuck about that window.#also very exciting to see trickster is getting a buff. I fear it may be a Little too much but we'll have to see.#I do like trickster because I LOVE awful men but he's SO painful to play with the state he's in on live servers.#and like why would I subject myself to playing a killer whose power barely does anything as opposed to other. better. killers?#ghostface and hux aren't even remotely close to OP but they still get consistent and reliable use of their powers.#even if some fuckhead follows you around to reveal you. you can shroud in chase to hide your stain momentarily and mindgame.#and hux's depleted oxygen tank add-on shuts down exhaustion perk usage when a survivor may most need it. even if they get EMP'd.#hopefully updated trickster will join the pool of killers I regularly play.#so unfair that I can't play him and doctor and equal amount. they are married to me.
