#this is relevant totally

If you hear Republicans speak to other Republicans, you'll hear a lot of them say that they really don't like Trump for whatever reason (many of them aren't fans of the felony convictions, his personal manner, his business dealings, his family life, or whatever else) but that they'll still be voting for him because he'll get them closer to what they ultimately want. They're pragmatic; they don't demand purity in their candidate. They recognise him as their strategic choice so they'll set aside the issues they have with him and vote as a bloc. That's what makes them effective at getting their way. That's how they win elections.
And boy I wish we had more of that attitude on the left. Imagine what we could get done.
#this isn't to say we shouldn't hold candidates to any kind of standard#it's that the relentless purity testing the left subjects itself to arguably does our opponents' work for us#it's so much harder to convince progressives to vote if the relevant candidate isn't entirely perfect with a 100% clean record#(which arguably no one has because the definition of perfect is going to differ person to person and also just... people have flaws)#whereas clearly conservatives take barely any persuading at all to turn up en masse and vote for the worst people ever#EVEN when they aren't totally on board with every aspect of those people#politics#us politics#american politics#us election#election 2024#2024 elections#us elections#2024 presidential election#project 2025#please vote#your vote matters#voting matters#my posts

Pac: I was very happy, truly. When I told Fit, he was super… He was super interested in the idea, he asked me some other questions, he even gave me some tips, because, well… I don't know if you know, Fit– no kidding! Fit is one of the… Wow, guys, he's a major reference in the Minecraft community in the United States, and the guy is an excellent storyteller, you know? Literally, I don't know what other term we can use, but Fit makes some videos of 2B2T–
Pac: Ah, but you know I was a fan of Fit before I knew Fit. It's no secret, huh? But I was super happy to have told him, he thought it was super cool, and… And that's it, and that's it. That's it for now. That's it, that's it. Right?
Pac talks about Fit's reaction to Arkanis! (Special thank you to @atthebell for double-checking my translations + transcript! Much appreciated).

Pac: I'll get back to that later, guys, I'll come back later. Let's look at this Fit business. Speaking of which��� I miss Fit guys. If you're watching my live, go say hi to Fit. I've joined Fit's streams a few times to say hello, it's always great to say hello to Fit, right? Let's go then, let's see what Fit said.
Fit: Pac was telling me a little bit about [Arkanis] when it was still like, being worked on behind the scenes. He was very excited about it. It’s- it’s- it’s- it’s a very cool project. It’s very cool. Fit: Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, it’s- it’s- it's–
Pac: It's over! It's over! Is that it? Is that all?! I'm kidding, it's only 30 seconds, right? [Laughs] Oh, that's cool, he really liked it! He said– He said– yeah, what he said was– what he said is translated above, right? Yeah, but very cool. Very cool, very cool. Wow, really cool, guys. Really cool, really cool.
Pac: I was very happy, truly. When I told Fit, he was super… He was super interested in the idea, he asked me some other questions, he even gave me some tips, because, well… I don't know if you know, Fit– no kidding! Fit is one of the… Wow, guys, he's a major reference in the Minecraft community in the United States, and the guy is an excellent storyteller, you know? Literally, I don't know what other term we can use, but Fit makes some videos of 2B2T– Ah, but you know I was a fan of Fit before I knew Fit. It's no secret, huh? But I was super happy to have told him, he thought it was super cool, and… And that's it, and that's it. That's it for now. That's it, that's it. Right?
#Pactw#FitMC#Pac#Fit#Arkanis#September 5 2024#Edited#Subtitles#Translated#This was so sweet :')#He had a whole extra 5 minutes talking about it beforehand but it wasn't all relevant#I do wanna translate that at some point though#but mostly for my own sake if I'm being honest I just wanna know what he said haha#But this was the biggest bit I wanted to share#Thank you again Bell!#Anyways WHAT WAS THAT SUS SMILE AT THE END THERE PAC#I totally think that (based on what he said before) he'll have a few of his friends somehow cameo in Arkanis#but we'll see!#Their friendship means the world to me

♪ Last Man in the World ♪
The Band CAMINO
╾━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━╼
◃◃ II ▹▹
Now we’re really getting into canon divergence. The nitty gritty, if you will. This episodes pretty much the same; Noah calls Alejandro an eel and gets called out for it, Courtney and Gwen find Duncan and he joins Team Chris, you know how it goes. What changes is that Team Chris ends up winning the challenge (like they should of in the first place but I digress) and get Duncan as their prize. I’m gonna say Gwen lets it slip that she has feelings for Duncan and Courtney gets incredibly upset, getting Sierra and Heather to vote for Gwen. Cody’s all out of sorts after Noah was at risk of being kicked off, though he wont say that out loud. He doesn’t have to, anyway. Tyler also gains a massive weight on his shoulders but it’s fine he’ll be fine
#so sorry Tyler but you can find comfort in the fact youre plot relevant at least#I think this is the last time I get to use the ‘something just happened’ joke so I hope you liked it while it lasted#the next one of these is my favorite. its also the LONGEST so youre probably getting it in December when im free again#total drama#total drama world tour#tdwt#total drama noah#td noah#total drama cody#td cody#cody anderson#total drama tyler#td tyler#noco#total drama noco#td noco#Starry makes art#world tour but noco are the only ones kissing#this is also one of the first times I draw Tyler ever#Tyler im SORRY FOR NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO YOU UNTIL NOW#youre LOVELY and I APPRECIATE YOU

#devil’s minion#iwtv#interview with the vampire#armand#daniel molly#daniel x armand#ah yes the sleep of an infant! tabula rasa! totally normal not at all ominous thing to say to these two men you've severely mindfucked#insane#also as a 90s vampire kid i am constitutionally incapable of hearing the words 'tabula rasa' without immediately jumping to buffy#in the btvs s6 episode 'tabula rasa' willow uses her supercharged psychic witchy powers to make her girlfriend forget they're fighting#she's terrified tara will leave her so she makes her blissfully unaware of their recent relationship turmoil#hmm doesn't sound relevant at all#definitely doesn't sound like anyone we know who preserves any semblance of domestic happiness at the cost of their partners' agency#siri play under your spell/standing reprise#anyway obviously tabula rasa is much broader concept than mind controlling your queer lover in vampire media lmao#but it wouldn't surprise me if it was a nod. i think it's a fun little connection to a work clearly inspired by the vampire chronicles#and it wouldn't be the only show detail referencing works directly inspired by/referencing tvc#see the copy of a book called 'the savage garden' in daniel's ny apartment in episode one#my edits

carnis au or also 'one meat', have some lore!
#trafalgar law#monkey d luffy#my art#my comic#op carnis au#described in alt text#totally forgot i drew that like. last week or smth. the idea is exploring themes of paranoia and perceived paranoia. conspiracy and also#surviving the fuck up thing that live inside your hourse and all your friends insist is the same guy as always. it's also law investigating#what happened to luffy and who he was since he never befriended him or anything. the mimic is creep af but doesn't seems to want to kill#law. rather it tells him it'd be sad without him which scares law even more. this luffy was very isolated. he moved after ace's death. no#family. his friends in another region/country? he was all alone and easy to replace without anyone noticing.#unrelated but doflamingo 100% is a mimic btw. it just fits. not all that relevant tho cause i want this au to be very centered on law n luf

People be like GIVE KABRU BROWN EYES!!!! and I'm like nooooo that's where his trauma is stored!!!!
Like he was almost killed as a baby because of them. His mom had to take him and run. He was convinced he was either the child of a monster or of an affair for the longest time until Milsiril taught him about genetics and how, while rare, two parents with dark eyes and dark skin can give birth to a blue eyed child.
His blue eyes are literally so important to his story keep them blue i'm begging you
#i totally understand the reasoning behind wanting him to have brown eyes#i get it really#but it's relevant to his story and not just a style choice#kabru#dunmeshi#delicious in dungeon#dungeon meshi spoilers#i guess?#yeah#delicious in dungeon spoilers#dungeon meshi

I have an honest-to-God question. Why do Bylers concern themselves with Stancy? I feel like Stancy gets more hate from them than any other type of shipper, and it's like, but why?
#Stancy#stranger things#byler#shipping nonsense#please someone answer this burning meaningless question#totally not important#but just so curious of why they give two fucks about a ship that isn't even relevant to their ship

I put this in the tags of a post but I think one aspect of cultural Christianity that is the hardest to shake is that people raised Christian (and particularly Protestant), especially people who have since left, will interpret depictions of religion that are actually drawing on practices/imagery common across multiple world religions as specifically a reference to Christianity.
#obviously downfall makes this relevant#but i'm remembering someone who was like ummmm caduceus said things that sound like protestant liturgy#like oh buddy i have things to tell you about commonalities between many world religions.#also that post i saw once that called the concept of redemption as culturally christian (by an ex-evangelical. as usual.)#the book of jonah just as like. a story that was written by people. is older than christianity.#like. i understand it is difficult to escape the hegemony but i feel like i'm watching you give a ted talk on escaping things#while tied up in a net you seem to be totally unaware of despite it hampering your movement
