hello hello!
it's been a long while since i posted here. but i am playing The Game, and as a result have been inevitably thinking about this place, and missing it. i'm really looking forward to reading everyone's thoughts once i've finished it. i'm still muddling along somewhere in Act 2 - if i hadn't already known my life has changed dramatically since Inquisition came out, this would be the final proof, lol.
i hope you're all well, or as well as can be expected, given recent events. maybe more dragon age talk here soon. ❤️
(unrelated: i clearly need to brush up on how tumblr even works these days. all the old tags i used to organize stuff on this blog appear to go exactly nowhere. 😅)

As someone who is studying history with a big interest in 1940-1980, it is insane to see the crack down on the college protests. History does nothing but repeat itself. It happened with protests against segregation, against the Vietnam War, against the Iraq war… and how we view it looking back is always the same. People always ask why studying history is important. This is exactly why.

Bruce says that his "true self" is his disguise. But Dick doesn't believe him.
Bruce keeps saying how important it is to notice the little details. And Dick does. He notices how Bruce's shoulders relax when they make it home after patrol, the slight change in tone as he tells Dick to wash up and head to bed. He notices how Bruce rolls his eyes at his puns, with a slight smirk that he tries to hide. How he ruffles Dick's hair and calls him "chum". Whatever the hell that means.
Most damning of all, Dick knows how Bruce peaks in on him after he's done in the Batcave. It scared Dick at first, for this... stranger to watch him while he slept. But one night, Dick decided to stay up a bit longer to finish a chapter in his psychology textbook Bruce made him read. If he finished it tonight, then he would have the next day free from Bruce's homework.
He startled a bit when the door creaked open. "Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." Bruce whispered. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah. Why?"
Bruce shrugged. "I just... saw the light on and wanted to make sure you're okay."
"I'm fine." Dick reassured.
"Okay. Not too much longer though." Bruce quietly shut the door behind him.
"Batman's the mask, huh?" Dick thought to himself, turning back to the last paragraph. "Yeah, right."

Your friendship with Katsuki was peculiar, bordering more on the romantic than the platonic. Everyone who knew you was well aware of your close bond with Katsuki.
The two of you were inseparable, not in the literal sense, but in a way that made your supposed 'friendship' feel intensely intimate. Every action Katsuki took seemed to be done with you in mind. Similarly, everything you did was to ensure you never upset him.
❊
"He stopped to roam around a store because he remembered you mentioning your favorite book being there again. We wandered for an hour and didn’t find it," Mina would complain. You would smile and apologize, though Mina's response was always the same.
"Don't apologize for that. Apologize for not dating already. At least then he'd have a proper excuse for favoring you."
❊
Two years into university, Katsuki finally mustered the courage to ask you out. Surprisingly, the confession wasn't as awkward as you both had feared, and your friendship naturally blossomed into something more.
Mina and Kirishima were the only ones who knew about your relationship. Mina found out because you told her, and Kirishima discovered it through his gossip sessions with Mina.
❊
One night, the boys gathered at Katsuki's apartment for a typical boys' night. You were crashing at his place, which wasn’t unusual since it had been a common occurrence long before you two started dating. However, the planned night was forgotten.
Katsuki lay in bed with you, a single arm draped over your waist as you faced away from him. With a small shuffle, you turned to face him, nestling your head into the crook of his neck. Katsuki pulled you closer, quickly dozing off again.
Meanwhile, Denki wandered the hallway in search of Katsuki. Reaching his room, he opened the door with a camera in one hand and a Sharpie in his mouth. Giggling to himself, the blonde boy slowly crept toward the lump of blankets on the bed.
The rest of the boys followed, watching from the doorway, eager to see Denki's prank on a sleeping Katsuki. But as Denki approached, he gasped loudly upon seeing both of you snuggled together in bed.
Katsuki immediately covered you with the blankets and pulled you closer at the sound of someone else.
"What?" Katsuki mumbled groggily.
"YOU'RE BOTH DATING!?" Denki's exclamation caused the small crowd at the door to quickly file into the room, curious to see who was lying in bed with the notoriously grumpy blonde.
❊
I finally had an idea. I can't get over uni Katsuki. I wanna try different ages

universal translator is my favorite trek concept because there'll be some throwaway word that has Implications for how the universal translator works and i feel like such a huge nerd but i need to Know
like for example how quark pronounces human "hyoo-mon"
presumably quark is not speaking standard which means that we the audience are hearing his dialogue as filtered through the universal translator, and assuming also that the universal translator can deal with different accents -- so the same word pronounced in two different accents gets translated the same way
why does the translator preserve that mispronunciation?
even if quark was intentionally mispronouncing it, the translator wouldn't have any way of knowing that, unless the translator somehow transcends language to translate the meaning rather than the actual words spoken (which is a CRAZY thing even for futuristic tech)

hey y'all, with all the protests going on, here is your friendly reminder to NOT TALK TO COPS
whatever you do, do NOT talk to ANY cops. do not answer any questions. do not give them ANY information unless you are LEGALLY REQUIRED TO. if they ask you a question, ask them if you're required by LAW to reply. if they say yes, ask them WHICH LAW EXACTLY.
some cops WILL try to trick you to get information out of you. give them NOTHING unless they prove that you have to by law. if you're arrested, comply and WAIT TO TALK TO A LAWYER. do not tell them ANYTHING until you have a lawyer.
i'm so serious, don't even nod or shake your head. don't comment on any of your intentions. the smallest thing could be an admission of guilt, which just makes your lawyer's job much more difficult. as soon as you come into contact with the police, you are a STATUE. you say nothing, you do nothing, you have no opinions.
stay safe, love you all, free palestine <3
EDIT- MAKE SURE YOU SAY THE WORDS "I AM INVOKING MY RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT" OR THE COPS WILL TRY TO GET YOU IN TROUBLE FOR "NOT COMPLYING" 🍉

On autonomy, and what it means to be Obliged to Help.
Bonus:
#a homestuck walks into an antechamber and asks#hey is anybody going to make this dynamic wholly deterministic and thus dubiously consensual by its very nature#ANYWAY bigger ramble below. scroll down like usual#isat spoilers#isat#isat fanart#isat siffrin#isat loop#sifloop#THATS RIGHT WE'RE STILL SHIP TAGGING IT BABYYYY#in stars and time#in stars and time fanart#lucabyteart#RAMBLE START: anyway i think loop is wrong here. they have it backwards. as-- in my opinion--#the main reason they could be called back into existence postcanon is because *their* wish for help is still not complete#they still need help. siffrin still needs help. neither of them will ever stop needing help.#they will thus uphold the wish until the end of siffrin's natural lifespan.#that said. what does it mean that loop can be so wholly forced to abide by siffrin's wants?#(assuming the dagger cutscene posession is them being forced to uphold the 'help siffrin' wish via harsh universe logic)#[as opposed to something capricious and cruel the change god did. which feels out of character for the change god to me?]#much like how the island wish and duplicate objects are neutered by simply sliding off people's brains...#is loop subtly ushered toward their wish? obviously it's not a full override (see: the bossfight). but is there any interference?#and if so. so what? does it matter? if they don't notice? is it even real if they don't notice?#and even if they do notice. the universe leads we follow. how much do either of them value their free will in a belief system like that?#the whole game is dedicated to siffrin habitually NOT excersizing his free will. doing things the same Every Time.#Loop ESPECIALLY does this. predetermined predetermined predetermined even in the FACE OF CHANGE. REFUSING. ANY CHOICE.#Maybe they'd even be comforted by having a universe-ordained purpose even if it is subservient. even if its to Him.#(though. i can't see siffrin enjoying the idea that someone is subservient TO them... then all their suffering is his fault...)#loop got into this mess via WANTING too much. no more free will. can't be trusted with it. take it away from them.#but yeah. gets my greasy detective pony hands all over this. and everyone please do remember i like to make characters Outright Wrong A Lot

It really pisses me off that the UK media is constantly spouting how "easy" it is to transition as an argument against trans people, when the reality is in March I'll have been waiting 4 years for my first appointment with a gender identity clinic*. Back in 2019 when I asked to be referred it was just less than a 2 year wait. My GP won't prescribe me bridging hormones because they don't know how, and the endocrinologist that I've asked to be referred to twice now hasn't let me know if I am on the waiting list for that so they can help my GP presribe me T.
anyway, fuck anyone who says that transitioning is easy and that anyone can do it on a whim in this country.
*that's just the first appointment, you then have to have at least two others to even get on hormones, then so long on hormones before you can have any form of surgery, and at least three years of living as your gender with evidence to back it up for that time, to get your birth certificate changed.

rambles about shockwave(s) below:
people tend to think shockwave is "emotionless". anger is an emotion, though, and every iteration shows it.
the correct way to describe shockwave would be "apathetic"; put it's important to note that doesn't automatically make him indifferent. for example, Prime shockwave is the most apathetic and indifferent, he just does stuff for logic. Animated shockwave is pretty apathetic, but not indifferent. he has strong feelings regarding the autobots, so much so he wants them to go extinct and makes a point to mock them when engaging in conversations. now, skybound takes that to a whole new level. i think he is similar to Animated in his motivations, the difference being that HE is in a position of power and is a sadist. it makes him so much scarier.
the kick Animated gets out of mocking Autobots and the pure joy Skybound feels when torturing them is different. for one, it is "payback" to the oppressive group that has banished them from their literal h o m e planet. for skybound, he is the one in power who enjoys the thrill of torturing of a "lesser".
thats the inspiration for this doodle came from. Animated and Skybound share lots of similarities: They're pretty emotional, they have humor (dare I say they are silly geese?), they want to extinguish the Autobots. But it's the source of their motivations that set them apart, and in my eyes, makes Skybound irredeemable-- and radiating with evil. Animated is more of a pathetic idiot who misses his home.
thank you for reading hehe. i think too much about shockwave

Okay back on my de aged Damian shit again.
What if Damian recognized Jason.
Bruce had to run to WE to pick something up and left Damian with Cass, Duke, and Tim. He was alright for the first half hour, but once he realized that Bruce wasn’t coming back right away, he started getting fussy. Tim is staying far away because he can never seem to hold Damian in a way that’s comfortable for both of them. He’s trying tho, he puts cocomelon on his laptop.
“Tim, turn that, off that shit will melt his brain.” Duke scolds as he dangles keys infront of Damian’s face. Cass is bouncing him, but it does little to quell the baby’s despair.
“What does it matter he’ll go back to normal in a couple days anyways!” Tim argues.
“What the hell is going on in here?” Jason walks in.
“Damian got babified.” Cass explains, “Bruce had to go to WE and he misses his dad.”
“And he’s making it everyone’s problem. In true Damian fashion.” Tim adds.
Damian finally lays eyes on Jason and immediately threw himself at him and cries harder. Cass catches him, but Jason also instinctively tries to catch the falling baby.
“He recognizes you!” Cass said, trying to maneuver Damian into Jason’s arms.
“Stop squirming so much.” Jason complains, but eventually Damian settles. His cheeks still red and his eyes still watery.
Cass takes a quick picture. Jason tries to grab her phone, but with a baby in his arms, he’s not going to be chasing her down.
Bruce comes home and he is elated that Jason is here and is holding Damian.
“Aw, are you having fun with Jason.”
Damian bounces happily now that his dad is back. “Great, you’re back. Take your kid.” Jason tries to pass off Damian to Bruce.
“Damian, do you want to come with me or stay with Jason?” Bruce offers out his hands.
Damian looks at Bruce, then at Jason, then back and Bruce. And then he’s throwing himself at Bruce.
Damian was a very trusting child lol

Listen, not only do I like the Batfam being completely human (except Duke, of course), I think it's such a vital part of their characterization. Each of them rely on their humanity and vulnerability in a different way, but it's still a core part of them.
That being said, I love the idea of Gotham's many curses and magical bullshit changing its inhabitants, and more important, enhancing her protectors.
Not by much, but enough for people to say "they're human... right?" and not being sure of the answer. It works better inside the city, where Lady Gotham herself can ensure her warrior's safety, but it lingers and it stays on them.
The way Bruce can blend a bit too well with the shadows, to the point not even metas can see him if he doesn't want to be seen.
The way Dick's body bends a bit further than should be possible, his muscles stretching and his bones at angles that would cause pain to most.
The way Jason is a bit too quiet for his body mass, how he seems to be able to move without making a sound despite his size.
The way Tim is a bit too quick-witted, a bit too observant, finding his enemies' weaknesses and flaws far too easy for a fast-paced combat.
The way Steph seems to always be on the right place at the right time, as if she were being guided to those in danger. She is always where she is needed.
The way stray animals like Damian a bit too much. They care for him and have his back in a display of intelligence that's not quite natural.
Yet they all still bleed. They feel pain and they cry and they are vulnerable.
Because they're still human.
Right?
