As I continue reading through Twilight (Warriors: The New Prophecy), I am just left wanting to yell at Leafpool to forget her pathetic love interest because Mothwing is RIGHT THERE and that they could hide their affair so much easier. Besides, she's an atheist so she is probably 100% down for that.
#atheist as always with an * because cross-culturally the concept of ''god'' isn't actually all that valid#and within our cultural context that word implies other philosophical positions like scientific naturalism#which she wouldn't exist in her socio-cultural context and blah blah blah religious studies talk#but unless you are a goddamn pedant you get what I mean#ANYWAY#warrior cats#wc#leafpool#mothwing#crowfeather

I understand the divided opinions about Bucky running as the Brooklyn congressman. And well, beyond this being arguably out of character for him. In my humble opinion, I think this is not thaaat different from what happened with Matt in DD:BA, where he decided to leave the mantle of Daredevil and pursue "other ways to help" full on as a lawyer. But he eventually realized that the world did need his alterego, and that his presence could make a difference in many people's lives.
The difference is that Bucky is a hero who has *never* really wanted to fight, but has constantly expressed his desire to live in peace. Still, and despite everything, seeking the greater good is something he has always fought for. So in reality, it's not so out of line for him to decide to be part of Congress, for as his official information says, this is another way in which he truly believes he can bring about good, WITHOUT having to be part of the battlefield...
Notice how the info says "Bucky will be forced to jump into action". FORCED. Marvel may be an unfair victim-blamer and ableist son of a bitch to him, but at least they maintain consistency in his characterization as a semi-pacifist who has NEVER enjoyed having to fight, but prefers a peaceful life.
Seb made a reference to Bucky's peaceful nature in an interview for Empire Magazine "every time I try to get out, they pull me back in". I think this sums up Bucky perfectly, as every time he experiences a bit of peace, for one reason or another he always ends up getting pulled into the fight and forced to intervene.
So in conclusion, while being a congressman may seem like a strange choice, it fulfills the two goals Bucky has always sought: to fight for good AND to live in (relative) peace...
ALSO, I'm very happy that Bucky is finally back in a leadership role since 1943. He's the one who's going to rally a team to fight the Sentry threat. He's the one who has the will to stand up and fight. It is he who will inspire the other TBs to be better and become heroes. It is thanks to Bucky that the world once again has a group of heroes to protect them... 🥹🥹
#admittedly i used to believe there was no way Bucky would join Congress voluntarily#and that he would definitely have to be coerced or manipulated in some way#but now that I think about it#i think if that had been the case it would have backfired#would mean that Bucky would be forced to do whatever whoever put him in that position asked him to do#and oc i'll bet anything that he would rather go to prison#and NEVER again be the puppet of a corrupt politician#as a congressman Bucky may have access to confidential information#that could expose any criminal who is part of the government#he has been catching corrupt politicians in TFATWS#and who knows how many more there are?#ehem Val#and i mean.. the government has basically represented an antagonistic role for the heroes almost all along#i don't even have to mention Hydra in TWS#so it makes sense that one way to combat this (perhaps more efficiently) is from within#and well#this is how he found out about Sentry's threat and did something about it#so I think we can say that his role as a congressman was useful?#we'll have to wait to find out#but so far I'm holding out hope that Marvel has a bit of decency not to ruin our boy's characterization.. 🥺🥺#bucky barnes#james bucky barnes#mcu bucky barnes#congressman of Brooklyn#thunderbolts*#thunderbolts* theory#sebastian stan#mcu

Oh that was the last page!
Well! Things are looking Determined! The Sakura and Syaoran Super Band is ready to Try Very Hard from within the Jam Jar.
And judging from the dramatic framing I’d say it’s probably likely to work!

They regularly ask me to let them in the other's enclosure so they can cuddle. When Sakura thought I was pestering her sister she put herself between me and her; incredibly brave of her as she is still afraid of human hands (but much better than she use to be.)

When Sakura gets frightened she'll run to her sister and often hide her head under her.

Both enjoy exploring and doing their enrichment activities together. Seeing this on a daily basis, and the bond these little ones have with each other (and me) I think more research needs to be done regarding the current belief Hognose snakes are incapable of emotion or bonding, and are completely solitary. While both go to their individual dens after socializing, both seek each other out and cuddle together. (They are only allowed together while I'm there watching as sometimes snakes will eat each other, and they seem to enjoy having their own home space when it isn't play/cuddle time.) Sakura benefits so much being with her sister, just being near her she's exponentially braver and far less jumpy, and will watch her sister with great interest learning from her.
#snake#snakes#snake social lives#hognose#pets#I genuinely think our current understanding of them is wrong just like it is with the leopard gecko#leos have been believed to be solitary for ages#only recently was it understood they live in COLONIES#Just because a critter likes to have their own little house doesn't mean they don't have friends or enjoy socialization#I also need to make a post about petting#as I have a theory with evidence that supports some snakes enjoy petting and it being a natural behavior within some of their societies

@seemoreseymoursbay day 4!! Platonic relationship day
I chose Nat and Louise for today! I just love how she looks up to Nat, Louise seems to have a lot of insecurities about her place in the world and how she expresses herself and her gender (being worried about not liking girly things or about her interests being too scary or dangerous and about those things making her bad or wrong) so the way she seems to see Nat as a positive rolemodel for non traditional femininity and aspires to be more like her is just really sweet to me. I also personally hc Louise as a lesbian and I think when she starts to crush on a girl (in this case jessica bc i love them together) she wouldn't want to talk to her family about it for fear of them trying to involve themselves so she starts going to Nat to vent about her crushes and get advice (and hold snakes probably)
#my art#bobs burgers#louise belcher#nat kinkle#fanart#bobs burgers fanart#seemoreseymoursweek#smsw#artists on tumblr#also like as a queer person myself younger queer folk connecting with our elders is important for keeping our community alive#to learn our history and connect with parts of queer culture you probably wouldn't within younger newer more online parts of the community#like idk that's a whole line of thinking i don't have the energy for rn but yk if you know what mean#that's how i like to think about their relationship intergenerational queer friendship is so important and beautiful#the whole time before i colored in the fry nats holding and drew the bag on the table it looked like she was holding a joint#and now i cant unsee it she looks stoned lmao

October 11th, 2024 - Friday
In a half-moved state of being lol half my belongings are in one place and the other half in another place. I’m trying to live a new life while also trying to continue my old life at full force. It’s exhausting yet exciting, foreign yet familiar, terrifying yet comforting. I am a living juxtaposition. All I can do is spread my old comforter onto a new bed and make new plans in an old planner (and read sometimes to escape 📚 )
#girlies I got married 🤝 and started a new internship 🤝 within a week of each other#@_@#dua answers hit too hard I have whiplash#also this is the dunya so 🥲 just cuz I made dua for it doesn’t mean it’s free of difficulties#was making dua for a spouse and a job not realizing i was praying for DRASTIC CHANGE in my life#then I’m acting shocked *pikachu meme’ when change is hard lmao#say mashaallah tho pls 🙏🏽 😭#May Allah accept from us#and give us the tawfiq to handle the answers to our duas 😅#notes

i swear my stepdad is so illogical AND stubborn it hurts
#okay so strap in coz this is a wild ride#tl;dr we have been without heat and warm water for years and i mean literal years#because he refuses to pay off some debt he built up with the company#because he feels unfairly treated (let's not get into this. it absolutely makes no sense) by the company#so instead of doing the logical step of growing some balls and admitting he made a mistake and paying off his shit#he's been looking for a new supplier all over but the deal IS#that he's been doing this with a couple of places before and people are hesitant to even make him any offers#and you'd think that learning about THAT at least now he'd be like. idk willing to just pay off his debt and be done with it#but you'd be WRONG#now he's looking to just have our entire heating system replaced for the teeny tiny price of 25000 bucks#mind you his debt isn't even a THIRD of that#and obviously he can't afford those 25000 bucks#so what's his next step now you might wonder?#well good thing you asked. his next step is going off on ME for not paying towards the new heating he wants#and now that that's not working for him guess what he did next?#that's right. he bought shit expensive 'space heaters' that are pretty much just small little boxes that you plug into an outlet#and he swears up and down that they're going to heat up our house (it's negative degrees outside)#(it's obviously not working)#and genuinely. all i can think of is how much money he shoved into trying to macgyver this house into a house with warm water and heating#and how he blew off ten thousands of bucks he got paid when he retired within the span of two weeks#when this debt could have been paid off ten times over by now#so now you might be thinking. okay tiago. why don't you move out#good question you see. my mom is disabled and reliant on someone who cares for her#something that he can't won't and shouldn't do because the last time he sorta kinda tried she almost died and we had to call an ambulance#she wouldn't eat a thing if i weren't there to cook. the house would fall into disrepair if i wouldn't do maintenance all around#i've set up (functioning) heat in some areas she occupies and i've gotten a boiler going so she at least has warm water#i'm paying off their bills to make sure he doesn't skip on paying any others. i'm buying groceries for them because again they wouldn't get#any for themselves#and finally. i've offered to pay off his debt so that we can finally live like normal fucking people do#and guess what. guess WHAT. he just got mad at me for not adding money to that 25000 bucks pool for that new fancy heating he wants

david jenkins makes every executive decision for OFMD through the filter of “the gays have suffered enough” and I love him for that
#ofmd s2#ofmd#our flag means death#david jenkins#taika waititi#rhys darby#like the way Ed and Stede reunited within 3 episodes#and had an adult conversation the very next episode#and the fact that they never even considered actually killing Lucius#and now him and Pete have their happy ending#not that we haven’t had our moments of heartbreak#but it’s nice to be able to trust that they will be kind to the character’s arcs

im gonna be reallly annoying here for a second grrm shouldve added so much more linguistic diversity to westeros. especially the north and ESPECIALLY north of the wall. also there's no way daenerys's mothertongue would be high valyrian. thank you.
#high valyrian doesnt occupy a prestige position in westeros + the central targ household of 5-10 are the only ones that speak it + the only#practical purpose it served was for communicating with dragons and even that became unnecessary almost 2centuries beforehand + she wasnt#surrounded by anyone with enough knowledge in HV to back up their restorative aims. viserys would looove to speak it but there was literall#nobody in his life who wouldve or couldve taught it to him#it wouldve died out/become obsolete within like. 10 years after the dance and even thats being super generous#im a linguistics major sorry let me be a pain#valyrianscrolls#asoiaf meta#sorry to clarify i mean that we dont see valyrian being adopted by the lords as a means to signal their high rank#the language is very firmly restricted to the main targ household#so its like. if theyre not using it for diplomatic purposes#and if theyre not using it to control the dragons#and theyre also not using it to index their social rank#and theres also literally fucking nobody else speaking it#then it serves no purpose because the targs also all spoke common#all it takes is a couple of generations of lax tutelage and the king realizing Hey teaching this to our kids is kinda functionally useless#and it dies out. maybe except in maester circles i can imagine theres scholarly interest in it but even then thats not enough to sustain it
