“we tried so hard with cassandra” NO YOU DIDN’T ?????

Something I’ve been thinking about lately is that small moment in “Air Turtle” where immediately after the Daves lose yet another game, Leo says how sorry he is and how he’s doing his best as the mascot. This moment is so short but it’s honestly jam-packed with a whole heap of characterization.

His need to apologize for things clearly not his fault - especially when it feels like he messes up the job he was given despite doing the best he can (the phrase “it’s not about you” takes a new meaning when this is one of the lessons to be learned from that - that he is not always solely responsible for things going wrong), his need to save face and make a connection with an older adult man in his life (something he consistently does throughout the series - he’s got a few daddy issues, always collecting potential father figures, it’s no wonder he jumps at the bit to keep rapport), and the way he sounds and looks and the words he chooses really pushes how he is just a kid (“Mr. the Dunk, I’m so sorry”).

Like I know it’s a one off moment that doesn’t truly mean much, but when put against the rest of the series it works really well with the rest of Leo’s established character and helps in solidifying later concepts as well.

I always respect your rule about suggestive posts, and I am 100% on board with it.

However please keep in mind that at least on mobile if there are many tags on a post some of these will be hidden! And some people might not notice the tag! Even I sometimes caught myself almost liking/reblogging something because I zoned out and didn't notice (I'm also a dummy and might not register that something is suggestive, especially that english isn't my first language.) When tagging questionable posts, please put the #suggestive tag first. Or not, I'm not gonna order you how to tag your posts, but please concider.

Thank you for reading and have a good weekend!

Sincerely, a 16yo ULTRAKILL fan

I’ll try to remember to put that tag at the front. I schedule all the posts when I’m at work so I’m usually more preoccupied with making sure no one is standing behind me while I’m doing that so the tags are an afterthought. But like I said I’ll try to fix that for future posts.

But anyway I reblogged that warning cause I had to block 2 accounts that followed and blatantly said they were 14. Meaning they couldn’t bother to read the short af blog description I have there. It’s right there as soon as you open the account. I can’t make it any more obvious. And I know they scrolled through the account because they were liking old posts that were tagged as well. They didn’t just follow from their dashboard. Not slick.

Like. Come on. I too was on tumblr from the age of 13 but I had the common sense to not do that. Stay out of trouble. Don’t cross people’s boundaries. 10 years from now you’ll realize how uncomfortable it’d be to have a 14 year old thirst posting in your replies.

If you’re going to do it anyway. Do that in your private discord or whatever with your friends that are (hopefully) around your age, I can’t stop you. But doing it out in the open with 0 respect is an auto block from me. Not only because it’s weird, but it opens themselves up to being creeped on.

I was watching hotd edits and reading atla fanfics and my brain just exploded

They are variants of each other, their suffering mirrors each other’s

Their awful marriages they were forced into

A royal or high standing family that has some connection to fire, a power or tool they lack

Their one eyed sons who were so kind as children and later grew to be harsh( zuko and todoroki both were able to learn to be kind again and to not lash out or shut down every time they’re upset, Aemond sadly did not learn that)

The absurd amount of blame they get for the way some of their children turned out ( yes they hold some blame, but I’m always hearing about what they did wrong and not hearing nearly enough about what the fathers did wrong, to me those men are primarily to blame; viserys targaryen, ozai and enji todoroki i wish all of you suffered more(ESPECIALLY ENDEAVOR HE DID NOT DESERVES TO JUST LIVE PEACEFULLY HE SHOULD HAVE DIED) Especially because they too were victims and were often doing the best they knew how to do for themselves and their kids even if it wasn’t enough or backfired massively (alicent)

Oh my tragic girllssss

I don’t want it to seem like I’m looking for excuses for my blunder, but my professor knowingly, intentionally failed me. Intentionally. I was out this past week because I wasn’t feeling well and that’s on me, those two lectures you can mark against me. But to mark the four lectures I missed because I had three holes cut into my body as an unexcused absence when I gave you a note and offered additional extensive proof?? Knowing that would shove me over the threshold and automatically fail the class????? And have the audacity to be disappointed in me??

if I had a nickel for every time I was in a fandom and a child character had a breakdown and did something that accidentally hurt another character, and then the fandom all turned on the character and vilified them because they [the fandom] can’t understand that sometimes 14 year olds make mistakes when they’re going through something traumatic, I would have 2 nickels

not a lot but it really is weird it happened twice

i don’t know of a solution to this problem, but let me lay out what’s happening with the young men in the country right now

every single hobby you have is entirely dominated by right wing politics. you like gaming? full of anti-wokeism. you like working out? right-wing fitness influencers who will sell you snake oil supplements and anti-science bs abound. you like sports? infested with right-wingers since the dawn of time. you just like watching youtube videos or instagram reels or tiktoks or podcasts? every algorithim is designed to push you into right-wing rabbitholes because it makes both the platform and the creators a ridiculous amount of money, and every large creator who looks like and caters to folks like you (with the exception of only a few, like hasan and the kavernacle) is a right-wing grifter.

this is happening, yes because many people are majorly profiting from it, but also because you’re part of the demographic with the most societal power. meaning your allyship to the left and the various movements within would be a terrible blow to the status quo and possibly what finally abolishes it for good. this is why the government pours money into call of duty games. this is why the government pours money into the likes of tim pool and joe rogan. the government has been shoving anti-left sentiments down your throat since you were old enough to understand them because otherwise you would be a much more serious threat to it than almost any other group.

when you do actually venture outside of your right-wing bubble (which you’re encouraged by the people you’ve been taught to trust never to do), it’s a 50/50 chance you will see someone like hasan, and maybe you’ll be initially resistant to his ideas but over time become less and less radicalized and farther and farther left, or you’ll see some random internet stranger saying they hate all men or something and decide that the left truly does not want you, and the right is the only option you’ll ever have because they’re the only ones who are nice to you. this doesn’t mean that expressing the “hate all men” sentiment is bad or that it’s your fault men stay in the right- it isn’t- it just means there is a gap in the left-wing content market for young men. thankfully that’s shrinking now, you can find a good number of left-wing CCs who are themselves young white men, but the algorithims that promote right-wingers punish left-wingers for not grifting hard enough, so when you see their content it’s probably only because someone sends it to you directly or it’s mentioned by one of your right-wing figureheads who’s dunking on them.

it seems like the solution would be to put more leftist content out there that appeals to young men, but that doesn’t change the fact that the government has put millions into shaping their media for a long time to keep them in line with what it wants. if you actually look at polling data, young men are less right-wing than their fathers & men over 50, but there’s only so far they can go when society (their media, their lack of irl community meaning they’re reliant more and more on social media, their longest-standing cultures like sports culture being right-wing for several decades, their growing dissatisfaction with the state of the world being twisted to make them blame minority groups & women) is designed to make them this way.

sometimes i think sawtooth had the best childhood but not really?? it is traumatic, just not in the way my other MCs’ are. quite literally sawtooth's gender shares deep roots with how they were treated as a child. he’s a demiboy because they never got to be a boy.

Yesterday. I watched “Paris is burning”, a documentary on the gay scene in New York during the 80’s. I loved how it shows gay men and trans women being part of the same group, sharing the same spaces, just different ways of being a homosexual male. All the support and love from the chosen families, their artistry at the balls, their culture, all the gender nonconformity was simply BEAUTIFUL.

It’s full on YouTube (it won’t let me link the color version)

I also loved this reflection by Pepper Labeija.

Mm. Okay. Thought I was kind of over this
