I absolutely HATE how in some fics, people portray the Nameless Bard as someone passive, submissive little boy and a “sweet uwu baby boy who can’t stand up for himself”. Like. Sir????? Are we talking about the same character?

No, he would not back himself away from turning down someone’s request because he’s too timid to say “no”. No, he would not let people’s demands walk all over him. No, he would not act like he has not been taught the basic principles of setting boundaries between himself and others.

Like be for real, man’s lore STATES that he straight up came to CHALLENGE GOD, started an undoubtedly huge rebellion AGAINST HIS OWN RULER, has formed a lot of people to rebel by his side and not to mention it should take MONTHS, and if not, YEARS to form a plan so revolutionary and a rebellion so tightly-knit and strong to take down a god.

Because for some reason these people (whom I’d rather not specify,) clearly write him like they have not read his lore. If you’d seriously tried to understand him and put yourself in his shoes, we should be taking consideration to what he must’ve gone through to form a revolution this big, and how the hell he kept it secret from his ruler so discreetly.

Imagine the amount of doubt he went through when trying to convince people to aid in his cause.

Imagine the amount of remarks and praises he receive from different kinds of people with different opinions on the matter.

Imagine how many times he’s heard that he should not do it,

Imagine how many times he heard that he will be punished by Decarabian,

Imagine how many times he was told by different people that his plan will not work or it would eventually fail,

Imagine how many offended, scornful, and disgusted looks he received from loyalists.

Imagine the amount of challenge this put him through.

Imagine how many looks he received from people from all different kinds of emotions. Fear, suspicion, apprehension, disgust, anger, and uncertainty.

So basing from the story, do you think this stopped him from reaching his goal? No.

He dedicated himself to reforming the once barren world of Old Mondstadt just to see his beloved sky, and the birds would finally soar. He completed something so big with immense mental fortitude that we did not witness in-person because he is a character who died BEFORE the events of the game, and has many IMPLIED, but OFF-SCREEN details hat weren’t even explicitly mentioned about him.

Old Mondstadt’s story cutscene is a story that forces you to use your perception and details to look deep enough into the history in order to fully understand it. Just using your visual perception isn’t enough. It isn’t “oh there’s a ruined city and some guy died 🤷‍♀️” ITS NOT.

Back on topic, a single accomplishment so big and took so much time like freeing a nation and its residents from its sick, delusional ruler whilst fighting for his own dreams of seeing the sky beyond is nothing compared from simply standing up for himself when people would back him down. In case you’re blind, he isn’t who he is without a reason.

I rest my case.

Question, how do you make fandom friends in real life?? Like I don’t like talking to people but i need someone to talk about fandoms, I’m going to go insane

I think I truly felt what it's like to be a Gen Z and out of place today...As somebody who is 19, into cosplay, animated and indie shows, apart of LGBT and a psych major, my family gets in heated arguments with me. They tell me I'm immature and some of it is mental illness- I'm literally the one to know, I'm going to school for it. But, I hold it back a majority of the time, they don't really know who I am, cause I don't tell them.

Waiting for the day reality melts away.

My grandma is in the hospital

My mom is spending the night with her there

And I've been left home alone

Which is fine

Because I love being alone

Until it's dark out and my neighbors start making weird noises and the pipes start squeaking in the bathroom we don't use.

So I had a hysterectomy today (hooray!) and I brought along my stuffed orca, Shamu, as a comfort object. And everyone i interacted with during my pre-op was like "Oh! Who's this?" so I was telling them all about him, how he's been with me since I was 9 and gone on every single vacation and road trip, and they were telling me about their own stuffed buddies (one lady said she still has hers after 40 years!) and all of this while I was signing consent forms and providing a list of the things I'd brought with me, you know, small talk.

So then a nurse comes over and goes "Okay, I've got some stickers I'll put on your things so we know they're yours" and I'm like "OK cool" so she puts a sticker on my coat and stickers on my bags of clothes and then she turns to Shamu and I'm like "oh I guess he gets a sticker too"

But no. She pulls out a hospital bracelet that's an exact copy of mine and slaps it on his tail, like so:

And i was delighted by this, so I took a picture to send to my friends, who were equally delighted, and were cracking me up with their reactions (like so:)

Anyway, they take me back and put me under, and when I awake groggily a few hours later it takes me a minute to get my bearings, so I don't notice Shamu at first. But then I realize he's tucked up next to me in the gurney, so I grab him, and my hand touches gauze.

And I'm like "huh?" so I look at him and I realize

They gave my fucking orca a hysterectomy

adhd executive dysfunction sucks bcuz im just sitting there and my brain is like

YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME YOU ARE WASTING TIME

no work done no rest gained. literally no point of this at all

we do need to revisit the wording of "you can't have your cake and eat it too" because i don't think it clearly enough conveys that it's more that you can't simultaneously retain a cake and also get to consume it (which would render you cakeless). for years i was like But why not....it's my cake....?

Someone at an old job asked why I wanted to write up the meeting minutes for our team and I said 'i wanna control the narrative' and they were like 'what' and I pointed out that no one was gonna remember what we said in six months and so my interpretation of the meeting would dictate the assumed reality of what happened

"none of you ever send corrections when I offer the draft so y'all have consented to my version"

"we don't read that shit"

"you must trust me implicitly to create our shared reality that's so sweet"

That's how several coworkers decided I was a supervillain and how I learned several coworkers didn't understand record keeping as like a CONCEPT

op turned off reblogs but I want this forever

[jingerpi]

popular YouTube channels are great and informative until they make a video about a topic you're informed on and then the house of cards comes crashing down as you realize how utterly wrong they are about most things
