Apologies
#shadowpeach#six eared macaque#sun wukong#lmk#lego monkie kid#monkey king#liu'er mihou#I just think it'd be neat if they apologized to each other and then cried and hugged about it#(cuz on god they both have some shit they should get off their chests and own up to)#like holy blue hells they're both just like “I think i shall spend my immortal life ruminating on my greatest regret and letting it fester”#everytime i watch the scene where Macaque is like:#“its good to talk about feelings! obv i don't do it”#i turn into the hands on hips guy meme#DUDE GO TO THERAPY#wukong too lets be real#been reading jttw the west (haven't actually gotten to where SEM shows up in the book yet tho)#and i think that if therapy existed back then tripitaka and sha wujing would've been gently but firmly#herding wukong into the local therapist's waiting room in as many towns they pass as possible#he'd probly grab the door frame and have to be literally pried off#these hypothetical ancient-chinese therapists all have claw marks on the hallways and doors going into their offices#hey how about an au where shadowpeach get therapists who end up getting all the monkey drama news first#and end up on the business-rivals-to-drinking-buddies pipeline#stopped while drawing this like “hey why'd i make mac be touching wukong's face in both sketches?”#and then i remembered that between the two mac's the one who wants to be something to the other#to the point of desperation#its like if they're both cats who got coned swk is the one who sits there miserably accepting his fate#while mac is that one video of the tuxedo cat shrieking and trying to paw it off#i'd read the hell out of a fic where they end up swapping attitudes about their dynamic#in canon wukong's the one who seems like he would like to never see mac again (at times) even tho he really regrets it and it hurts#like mac just gives up on trying to convince himself he can make swk see him as a significant part of his life again

I was scrolling through the endless Homelander void that is my phone gallery and totally forgot I had this. As close as we can get to our giant blonde boi in real life despite being a couple inches short.
Thought you’d appreciate 😄💙
Damn, is that the weird Homelander paper maché head mascot from season 3?? Why they gotta do my man dirty and make him terrifying. He looks like a giant toddler with a Ken doll head and it scares me. 😭
#asks#homelander#size difference#my art#thank you for sharing though lmfao#just in time for halloween#i'd love a giant homie but this is like some monkey's paw shit o_o

I'm forever astounded at all the Gallifrey/time lord society stanning that goes on in fandom? It's the monkey paw!!!! Read the small print!!!
So much of dw's canon will Entirely pass people by, literally spanning from the earlier years of classic who to the present day, if you can't identify that Gallifreyen society is rotten to the core.
The Doctor couldn't be the hero if they continued to sully themselves in a brutal empire's name.
(it's the british empire. but space. british empire bad. very bad. come on.)
#dw shit#and look okay the doctor is imo#the shittiest hero in pop culture#but they still Are the hero#of the narrative structure of the show#and when you balance that out with the function of the companions#which is to demonstrate equality between this ageless deathless being and regular joe humans#(or not so regular joe humans)#then the underlaying message is that the superiority the empire claims is false#the doctor can be a time lord and a hero and they're still the same as some working class human who can't afford food#anyway empires are Bad and honestly#the show hasn't been bad at showing it#sometimes things you think are cool are Bad#and like sure you could say you don't want to be a part of time lord society you want to be like the doctor who rejects it#i again claim monkey paw and point out how depressed the doctor is So Often#they are quantifiably Not having a good time most of the time#they have to keep humans in their life or the silence will let them think#they either lose everything to won't allow themselves to ever have anything#... i'll stop now but really the space british empire is sooo bad

Considering the. Ahem. Ways this year has gone, I've not been thinking about it all that much, but. I did start this year with the motto of Year Of Unfucking My Life. With a few goals involved in that.
I got an official adhd diagnosis, as well as a diagnosis for PCOS. Other diagnoses in progress. Gotten adhd meds and birth control to regulate periods. I've gone back to school and I'm keeping up with it better than ever before. I've even been working on practicing driving, something I've been largely neglecting since I first got my driving permit, um... 11 years ago...
I just need to actually Get my license. And I need to get it before the end of the year. If I can accomplish that, then I'll say the Year Of Unfucking My Life was successful.
#speculation nation#i had some pretty major negative And positive influences for this goal of mine.#primary negative influence of course being my dad abruptly dying.#but that also led to the primary positive influence of the life insurance payout that's letting me just focus on school for my final year.#it's like a monkey's paw curl kind of moment. i got a genuinely astounding amount of money#more than enough to live off for a year+ and pay off the rest of my schooling.#with this i have finally exited the purgatory of part time school full time work to pay my way through school#a setup that led to endless stress (both physically and mentally) and suffering grades.#failing some classes and taking longer bc part time Anyways. locking me into years and years of this perpetual fucking Hell.#ive escaped it. school is so so so much more manageable when i dont have to work a job. im actually keeping up with my assignments.#for once theres no uncertainty about passing any of my classes. i Will pass them all. and i expect As in most if not all of them.#it's been fucking Amazing. everything i couldve wanted. and it came with the low low cost of losing my father when i was only 26.#... 'low' being sarcastic here of course. he was the 2nd worst person i couldve lost in my life. second only to my sister.#the 2nd worst grief i will Ever experience. bc he was my Good parent. hes the very reason i have a future at All.#and losing him fucked me up Severely. im still working on recovering. i kind of figure i always Will be.#thank god id already been taking spring semester off bc that would've been Horrible to go thru while in school.#i honestly probably would've just withdrawn from the semester. theres no Way id have kept up with it#given how damned BUSY those first few weeks after were. between funeral prep and inventorying and packing up his house.#so fucking much involved in settling an estate. and im the lucky one in that my sister's been handling all the legal shit.#so i simultaneously was dealt one of the most severe blows i ever Will be dealt#while also being given probably the biggest boost i'll ever get in my life.#if everything goes well with graduating and getting an IT job then i'll never want for money again.#considering there was a time early last year when i got as low as literally $7 in my bank account. this is a pretty big deal.#it's just... strange. the ways things go in life. this has been a very strange year for me.#just doing my best to use this boost to the best of my ability. even if it feels like im taking advantage of his death.#it's what he wouldve wanted me to do.

This whole guillermo vampire thing this season reads like a monkey paw wish
#and I thought we did all of the wishing last season *laugh track*#what we do in the shadows#wwdits#guillermo de la cruz#throwing up my thoughts onto tumblr again#wwdits spoilers#wwdits season 5#wwdits season 5 spoilers#wwdits s5#wwdits s5 spoilers#for those who don't know: occasionally in media a character will get a chance to make a wish (sometimes using an actual monkey paw)#that will come true but with a catch (you wish to become rich and you do but it's in fake money#word peace but aliens take over#for someone to fall in love with you but they die or some shit#just to give some examples)#AND THIS FUCKING SOUNDS LIKE ONE

can't believe sonic 2 movie came out earlier this year and went "hey this is tails! he's fluffy and friend shaped. we're glossing over his backstory and motivations to focus on the real meat of the story though" (me: understandable considering the limitations being worked with have a good day i would still die for him) and now prime has kicked down my door with "you want tails backstory angst?" *throws me across the room* "YOU WANT TO SEE THE FOX SUFFER?" *roundhouse kicks me in the face* "YOU WANNA SEE HIM CRY??" (me, spitting out blood: yeah)
#mine#feels so weird that sonic 2 isnt even a year old yet i feel like i've known her forever#something something monkeys paw or some shit

I think in my new original fantasy world where all things originated from the Stars and the Stars' will is Fate and magic operates by the three humours of Flesh/Earth, Tears/Wind&Sea, Blood/Ether, rather than sleeping for a dozen or so centuries, Oberon is just in complete denial that Titania's left him. He's like "Oh all couples fight. :) She'll be back she always comes back :)" and it's been 1,500 years since she spoke to him
#adddna#hes still completely self centered and horrible and now he controls good luck#u know its some monkeys paw shit when he does it tho.#fantasyworld#fairyposting

#its the 'im not calling you x that y was shit' one#i just hate the like. puppy dog eyes face in the first panel#maybe my information is incorrect but apparently it originated from some laios/kabru fanart#there Are laios/kabru angles i can appreciate but a lot of the fanwork ive seen feels mischaracterized in a way that makes me cranky#monkeys paw effect of a big fandom developing for something where the original has interesting and well written characterization that i lik#rambles#dungeon meshi tag for people to block if necessary hopefully this doesnt show up in the main tags. if it does please ignore it i am Sorry

RYAN????? SEACREST????????
#I stopped watching wheel when pat decided to hang out with qultists#and I was really looking forward to him being replaced#but at what fucking cost#by god have I been monkey pawed#paging sacha baron cohen#we need some more pancake mix on aisle five#wheel of fortune#the trebek replacements were shit too#truly I am suffering#how will I be neurodivergent at my television now#did fate give us ONE good replacement (drew carey) and then say we used up all the good stuff#woe

I love when men are fictional characters and abstract concepts and intangible preformers for me to project my desires onto but living with them 👎👎👎👎👎���
#personal shit#gender means nothing to me but it sure does to them god damn. the insatiable need to be insufferable runs to the deepest parts of them#anyway don't take the things I say in some sort of fucked up monkey's paw way

He could not prevent it because he was set in his decision.
CLAUDIA AND A SPINELESS CUNT INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (2022—)
#granted i don’t think he’s spineless#i think he wanted the undivided attention of louis de pointe du lac had a plan to get it and carried it out flawlessly#i’m uncertain if he found her an ‘abomination’ due to her age and wanted her expunged which#doesn’t make a lot of sense to me bc why would he care#amc armand wasn’t turned as a teenager and therefore doesn’t get to project onto her in this ‘verse#and similarly it would be strange if he really felt it was a ‘mercy kill’#and mostly i’m puzzled why he felt threatened by her wrt to louis bc#damn sir she’d already left#unlike canon#so all i have left is that amc armand felt weapons-grade levels of threatened at#the prospect of losing louis’s affections#and cleanly took both of louis’s family members off the board in one way or another#the one he could kill and the one he couldn’t bear to#which turned out to be some monkey’s paw shit#because given his limited experience with love armand was unable to foresee louis would be left a shell of his former self#iwtv#to me not spineless but definitely merciless and dangerous#’i want you more than anything in the world’ would’ve been terrifying if louis had known what that meant from armand#prev tags#my tags: I agree#interview with the vampire
