Happy International Women's Day to those who are women in a trans way, to those who are women sometimes, to those who are partially women, and to those who are women but also something else.

The ironic gay bullshit John and Dave pull in early Homestuck has me in a chokehold how much do you think they do it? Like Dave will write John a sappy love song called Ode to Egbert or some shit and it will have all the romantic cliches and inside jokes and digs at John for being a nerd and John will try to write some bullshit code that when executed just flashes the text MARRY ME DAVE across the screen but it doesn't work and he'll have to explain to Dave what the corrupted .exe is supposed to do and he'll call Dave gay for wanting to know even though he didn't ask.

And during all this Dave is suppressing an actual crush while John is genuinely just taking a piss. Having a ball. Making a list checking it twice seeing if Strider is naughty or nice (gay or not.) And Dave will make a jab at John for harboring undying erotic passion for Nick Cage while John is packing the Ben Stiller shades wondering if he should decorate the package with hearts as a haha joke. And he doesn't 'cos he's not a homosexual

[thatlittledandere]

Thinkin about Davepetasprite.

You know how irony was a whole thing with Dave for so long. Couldn't be real about anything everything had to be a joke or he had to be the coolest guy around and coolness to him was detachment. But it was instilled in him by Bro, nurture rather than nature. And by the end of Homestuck he's learned and learning to be more sincere, smiling genuinely, laughing and raising his voice, willing to show he cares.

Davesprite didn't get to go through that exact development, that positive change driven by being accepted for himself by others, but he's also more sincere than he was in the start. For better or for worse. He's lonely and miserable but at least he's honest about it? I don't know. Davesprite makes me want to cry.

On the other end, Nepeta always valued sincerity; it was already apparent in her first chat with Equius when she called him out for playing up a role and refusing to play games that he might enjoy and hiding his real likes and dislikes because they didn't fit with his curated image. Nepeta described Eridan's clumsy advances towards her as "creepy and insincere", and I'm writing this on my phone and not willing to go and read everything she ever said to verify this but I have a feeling like it wasn't the only time she criticized something or someone for being insincere. Nepeta can't stand insincerity, she's openly and unapologetically who she is and into the things she's into.

And then these two fused together to make Davepetasprite^2 and holy shit they're happier and more fulfilled than either of them ever were before. It's pretty crazy?? And I'm trying to make sense of it here. It's something? Davepeta is HAPPY and not afraid to show it. I had a point here let me check my pockets

[thatlittledandere]

FUCKED UP to be Davesprite tbh like he is Dave. By all accounts he is Dave Strider just orange and winged and no legs but mentally, and all that, he is Dave. He has all of Dave's memories - they're his, he lived them - he thinks like Dave, feels like Dave, reacts like Dave-- he has all of Dave's experiences. That's Dave Strider right there. He didn't stop being Dave when he was prototyped; what changed is how he's seen and treated by others.

And his best friends see him as a stranger. A stranger wearing their friend's skin. They insist on adding the -sprite to his name, which tbf is consistent with how all sprites are called in Homestuck and it might be weird to make an exception here, but from his perspective... Sure there's another, not-sprite Dave out there, and he is technically the iteration these John and Jade know, but up to a certain point they are identical and that Dave isn't in contact with them on the ship? Davesprite is the only Dave present. They could just call him Dave. But they don't, reminding him every time they say his name that he isn't their Dave, he isn't the friend they look forward to seeing.

And Davesprite comes from a timeline where they died!! It's been a long time since I read that part and my memory is a bit fuzzy on the details but John definitely died on that timeline, and Jade was as good as dead. It was just Rose and Dave on Derse, and Dave went back in time to save his friends, even if it meant losing his life. And he succeeded! At both things!! John and Jade made it to the game, they're alive, Dave gets to meet them and spend time with them... And they don't see him as their friend at all. He's not the guy they've known for years. From Dave's perspective, those are two of his best friends and some of the only people in his life he likes and cares about, and they don't see it the same way. He practically lost all his friends at once.

Jade was better about it but JOHN. Oh, John just breaks my heart. Like, again, from Dave(sprite)'s perspective, that's his best bro. That's his best friend. That's his number one guy, who he loves, who he already lost once. Davesprite practically exists because he went to save him. And there he is, he's alive, his best bro... Who looks at him with disgust and contempt in his eyes. Who doesn't think he's real.

How the hell do you live with that? The psychological toll that takes?

Well. We know how. That shit is traumatizing and it shows. That Dave, who faced things the one from this timeline didn't, developed complexes and problems of his own, his "unique issues". And like a self-fulfilling prophecy, it set him apart from the "real Dave" in a way that further sets them apart and makes him easier to dehumanize.

I cried over this at work the other day.

Trying to convince you to watch Binan Koukou Chikyuu Bouei-bu LOVE! (colloquially known as Boueibu) :

It starts with food metaphors in the bath.

An alien is weekend-at-bernies'ing a 77-year-old teacher. badly.

In one episode the villains mention their plan is to turn all men on Earth gay so humankind will go extinct. This is never brought up again.

The villains' boss is the cutest little green porcupine who would be voiced by Christopher Sabat in an English dub.

They accidentally go to a gay beach because Atsushi is 18 and never learned how to fucking read apparently.

A 17-year-old has a real estate broker license.

One guy's whole schtick is being a womanizer in a series with an all-male cast that refuses to show women even in crowd scenes.

^ he gets called out on this.

^^ and on having feelings for the aforementioned stock broker.

^^^ they are butt naked in this scene.

Twins with opposing BDSM kinks kinkshame each other for two seconds then go back to fondling the glass casket their shared crush they kidnapped is sleeping in.

I don't need to mention the monsters of the week are bizarre. Delinquent oden bowls are normal here moving on.

(yeah yeah the hairy heart with nipples for eyes we've all seen it)

(we wish we hadn't)

Hey what the hell the pick-me-up speeches the monsters are given after battle are like, honestly really uplifting.

I will literally paypal you 5 euros if you manage to predict the twist of the first season.

The curry is symbolic.

This is anti-propaganda but the BDSM twins have a cult following with arm bands and salutes just a fair heads-up.

Their school has a student who refuses to graduate until the volleyball team makes it to nationals. Like, refuses. It's worse than you think.

EDIT: I misremembered this and was corrected: not even nationals, a tournament. Just. Any tournament.

Either there's a weird continuity error between seasons 1 and 2 or the school has two separate volleyball teams. I choose to believe the second option, it's funnier and also entirely plausible in this clusterfuck that calls itself a school.

The adorable blond fluffhead casually comes out when they're making plans for the school's monthly pretty boy contest no I will not elaborate on that part stay focused.

^ He's into gang leaders.

The music slaps.

The boys are pretty.

The pinup photoshoot is had.

Watch it

I want to fuck the fennec fox from the spin-off with Happy Kiss replacing LOVE in its title.

And also the blond sadist.

If you HAVEN'T read Homestuck:

[thatlittledandere]

Every time Persona 5 makes a big deal about how the Phantom Thieves are criminals and break the law I can only think "Which law? Which law are they violating? Show me the law. I want to see the law they're breaking the letter of." Show me where in the Japanese legislation it says Thou shalt not physically enter people's subconscious and extract a physical manifestation of a symbolically meaningful item to them, removing their badthink in the process.

I guess the point is that they're thieves that they're stealing stuff but also it's been explicitly confirmed that the palace owner does not lose that item in the real world. Kamoshida still had that medal in his house. What kind of a theft is that.

Are they performing unlawful lobotomies without a medical license? Show me the fucking law

[thatlittledandere]

Ever think about how Yukiko wears so much red because Chie told her it looks good on her once? Ever get lost in that thought

[thatlittledandere]

Persona 5 gets so much better when you love Mishima trust me on this dude
