they just met why is kara always going on about how lena needs to give her more and more? maybe that should be the end, they had a nice time , we got nice smut and they parted ways. i get why kara doesn't see them working but idg what lena is seeing in kara long term beyond her being 'normal' i guess that's enough with her life, even when kara was told that those pictures were from before they even met she still judged her and made all about how lena hurt her feelings, lena will have tabloids saying shit about her always and kara is right that they won't work long term, they don't work even now when they should be in the honeymoon period
Yall I'm writing this on my phone, my thumbs dont have that kind of stamina.
Also, as for what Lena sees in Kara... tbh I'm relying pre-exisiting chemistry that y'all know is there, even if I'm not the best at showing it here. I might embellish when I move it to ao3, but I might not.
But also part of things is that Kara doesn't really have room to shine, because Lena sucks all the air from the room. And with based looooooosely on the anne hathaway movie that sees them reuniting in like five years, I had to have them split in a relatively timely manner.
And also tbh, in case the "writing this in my phone notes" didn't convey this strongly enough-- I am pantsing this thing to the maxxxxxx. Not a single outline or bullet point in sight. Total stream of consciousness. As a rule, one can expect my tumblr stuff to be considered a stream of consciousness more than anything else. Do NOT expect it to be polished or free of plot holes.
Also also... it's a free story with our fave peeps? Didn't think it needed to be much deeper on this here tumblr dot com...
#lol sorry#this is ramble central#like.... you dont have to like it....#but i dont have to hear that you dont?#unless i majorly fuck up in terms of representation or a microaggression or whatever#i want to know about that#but if its just a general 'this isnt good enough for my tastes' thing#you cannot imagine how demoralizing this would have been if I had been in less a good head space#and then a bunch of people who *do* like it would miss out on the ending/more content#im sure you didnt mean this in a mean way#but if i were more depressed than i currently am#i wouldnt be able to see the lack of ill intent#i would just see “your story sucks and doesnt work what are you doing”#so maybe give it a second thought before hitting send yeah?

I do think Blazing Saddles handled its one depiction of native americans very poorly, and the full extent of its representation of chinese workers on the railroad is they were literally just there. not even one single speaking line. unclear if this is worse or better than the redface.
it's fucking phenomenal at lampooning antiblack racism though. extremely blatant, extremely funny satire, which is constantly and loudly saying "racism is the philosophy of the terminally stupid at best and morally depraved at worst, and we should all be pointing and laughing at them 24/7"
plus the main character is a heroic black man who has to navigate a whole lot of bullshit but is constantly smirking at the extraordinarily stupid racists and inviting the audience into the joke. the one heroic white character is a guy who was suicidally depressed until he met the protagonist and they just instantly became buds, and he's firmly in a supporting role the whole time and happy to be there. the protagonist saves the day with the help of his black friends from the railroad, and uses the position of power he was given to uplift not only those friends, but all the railroad workers of other minorities too, in an explicit show of solidarity.
anyone saying "Blazing Saddles is racist" had better be talking about its treatment of non-black minorities. it had better not be such superficial takes as "oh but they say the n-word all the time" or "they have nazis and the kkk in there!" because goddamn if that's the full extent of your critique I very seriously suggest you read up on media analysis. there is too much going over your head, you need to learn to recognize satire.
#blazing saddles#finx watches tv#finx rambles#I recognize that I'm saying all this as someone who's not black#but I am also saying it as someone with a basic understanding of race relations in the usa#and a basic understanding of sarcasm#bc it really does not take more than that to recognize what they're doing in this movie#it is NOT subtle#and it is very funny#mel brooks movies are kinda hit or miss for me ngl#men in tights is great if a bit too crass for my taste#spaceballs has great jokes but the central story lacks any real heart so it doesn't grab me#history of the world was just kind of unpleasant and then I switched it off#but blazing saddles? phenomenal#I could not stop laughing the whole way through#and the central story DOES have heart bc it's the friendship between bart and#whassisname#jim#the Kid#plus bart working out how to succeed at an impossible task#also frankly cleavon little just grounds the comedy really well even before gene wilder shows up and we get their chemistry#bc he's cool calm collected and constantly inviting the audience into the joke#but the character's not too cool to ever mess up or ever be silly#he makes bad choices and gets into bad situations and then has to get himself out of them#but it's.....oh wait duh there's a term for this already#he's the straight man#he grounds all the zany nonsense by being in strong contrast to it#and he does a great job of it!#anyway#point is I deeply enjoyed this movie and I'm glad I finally watched it

happy deathiversary to the queen. can we do the rest of the bastards now
#ramble#i am one of the sane people on the crap island who despises the royals#you don't know anger until you're choosing between food and central heating while they spend billions on a coronation#or when your sorry excuse for a government is having christmas parties while old people die on zoom with their children#or when 30% of the country despises you and is actively campaigning to take your rights away#and the worst part is you're not allowed to leave even when you didn't vote for it#it's fun here

i do a light chuckle once i remember hofmann and semmelweis are friends but then i remember semmelweis and marcus' suitcase interaction where they talk about her and i am once again inconsolable about this old woman's death
#reverse 1999#semmelweis#greta hofmann#certified storm moments#i miss hofmann so bad i know ill start sobbing when someone brings her up again in chapter 7#r1999 shitpost#i still think their canon ages are bullshit and theyre both older than canon in my head but yeah semmelweis is half hofmann's age (19 to 38#bluepoch i prommy you won't start profusely bleeding income if you make a character older than their mid twenties. i promise you that#nothing more but hofweis rambling after this you have been warned#anyways you mightve seen me here or there mention that i ship these two and. yes the age gap is a central theme to how i percieve them#semmelweis lived the dream (see how i say this in past tense) she bagged that old woman </3#the inherent angst of your partner being so much younger than you and close to death thanks to a terminal illness yet in the end#its actually you that dies first. and she ends up finding a cure to illness and ending up immortal. something something 'i will never see#how old age looks on you. you are breaking my heart.' and how it applies to both of their perspective towards the other#one went to vienna to (unknowingly) die and the other went there to live#koshka-sova said it best its a pair that dances round life and death. and can't forget about the inherent workplace yuri#also its funny thinking of marcus unwittingly finding out through either her arcane skill or some other method her mentor's coworker-friend#got it on with her. like i think the two start bonding because of hofmann but then one day marcus approaches her with haunted eyes and#shakily goes 'd...did you. did you and madam hofmann..? my arcane skill said. that you and. did you two......?'

Actually what the hell is going on with the sword in EoW. Because I'm getting either "Link's soul has become bound to the sword and his body is an empty husk being used as a vessel" or "This sword is so powerful / magic it shapes the wielder in its image, which is Link."
#fires posts#ramblings#eow#echoes of wisdom#leaning more toward soul separation but like knowing Nintendo it could be fuckin anything#wondering what the deal with it is though#whenever LoZ drops an Important Sword it's usually quite central to the plot

thinking about how tgcf embodies so many themes: staying kind when the world is against you. never changing who you are despite everything pushing you back. passion, determination, hope. but at its core? love.
xie lian’s love for the world, even after everything that happened to him. he still cares for it. loves it. he passes it on to people he meets - returning a kindness that was almost fleeting, once. but it came around in the end.
xie lian’s love for hua cheng, that we get to see him fall in with him. that everything is so easy, and xie lian is in love with him and he doesn’t even realize that’s what he feels until that core moment where he finally, knows what those feelings he have means - and it’s a gentle and soft acceptance, and once xie lian shows through so many actions, words, everything, how much he loves him.
hua cheng’s love for xie lian: the driving force for hua every action, his every move, how he understands and knows xie lian, reminding him who he is even when xie lian doesn’t - never leaving. never giving up. after so many years, continuing to fight, to look for, to never waver - and to finally find him, again, and be able to be with him? hua cheng’s love is his driving force, and he embodies that love for xie lian in everything he does.
so much of tgcf, and hualian, is driven by love. and i think it’s so beautiful
#hualian’s love is equal and boundless and beautiful#and it’s a representation i think#of everything else in the book in a way#that all leads back#to love being such a central theme#and even characters where that love romantic platonic familial#effects others around them because they won’t give up#or even love for their country#for another person#there’s many examples of love and how it embodies in different ways in tgcf#but it all leads back#to hua cheng and xie lian and their love story#tgcf#my ramblings#hualian

What's the name of the game where one person is "IT" and counts to a number while everyone else hides and then has to find the other players?
Bonus: Tell me in the tags where you're from (OP is from the US)
My proofreader is correcting me and sure, I've heard both ways but I've never heard that my version is wrong, so I'm curious if this is a standard thing or a regional variation based on where I grew up.
#etta rambles#I'm from central/western PA#I also drop the “to be” part of verbs like “The dishes need to be washed” instead I'll say “the dishes need washed”#linguistics

ok i KNOW this is an insane topic to make a tierlist about but i was thinking about milsiril again so. dungeon meshi characters ranked by how pro-euthanasia i think they are
clarifications:
"pro-murder" here doesnt necessarily mean "likes killing". this chart is about how each character views the ethical ramifications of taking a human life, and some of the people in "pro-murder" are there because they would kill someone outside of a combat situation if they thought it would have a greater benefit, such as saving the lives of many others. the rest of them (like thistle, cithis, and the orcs) are there because they are ready to kill whenever to get whatever they want, which is a very different ethical stance but still fits in the same category for the purpose of the chart.
"pro-euthanasia" means having no qualms over killing something/someone if there is an absolute certainty that the individual will never be able to regain a livable quality of life. this is the only category outside of, uh, murder, that doesn't necessarily require consent for the euthanasia to be carried out.
"it's an option" characters would perform euthanasia if asked, or would otherwise condone consensual euthanasia.
"only in the most extreme" characters would only consider the option as an absolute last resort, once every other possibility had been exhausted. these characters would keep someone alive against their wishes to try to save them.
"absolutely against it" characters would never under any circumstances kill someone they didn't want dead. they would sooner let them bleed out or otherwise suffer against their wishes than perform requested euthanasia, and would protest the performance of consensual euthanasia by others.
#this felt like a necessary thing to think about in a story where life-taking and personal autonomy are central topics#i realize the fact that i made this chart makes me come off like im in the pragmatist category so i wanna clarify#im actually squarely in ''only extremes'' because i am selfish and a coward 👍#anyway. milsiril would be a deeply cloying palliative care nurse in the modern au i got rattling around.#alsoooo pro-murder ended up being the largest category sdkjf....major consequence of being in a swords & sorcery setting#rambles#dungeon meshi#omg i just realized i separated mickbell and kuro NOOOO i tried to group characters by party but :(

Linked universe x modern reader but the reader isn't into the whole adventure thing and instead only has one mission in mind.
Finding their beloved pet that they were separated from.
They search all throughout Hyrule, helping the boys along the way and keeping a sharp eye and keen ear out for their furry friend. It's basically their main quest and the actual adventure involving the shadow and the boys is like a side quest.
#oli talks#ooc#muns ramblings#mindless ramblings of a madman#shitpost#extreme shitpost#linked universe#linkeduniverse#lu#linked universe the chain#linkeduniverse the chain#lu the chain#linked universe x reader#lu x reader#comedy central right here fellas lol#based on me seeing my cute dog and thinking about how I'd tear apart the world for her#thought it'd be funny in concept lol

. . .
oh god,, what kind of freak i am-

One of my initial motives behind Marriage of State was noticing how a lot (not all, but a significant percentage) of Empires flower husbands fics would have Jimmy be the “prince of the ocean kingdom” and have Scott still be king of Rivendell even if Xornoth was never corrupted and i fully support people’s rights to tell the stories they like but it seems odd to me to just straight up delete an entire empire when there is an empire with two royals right there.
So i decided to give Scott the demotion for once XD (It’ll be good for him)
#rain rambles#marriage of state au#thinky thoughts#not only will we keep the cod swamp#we will make it CENTRAL to the narrative
