Im usually much too shy to send asks but you gotta be the change you want to see, and i agree that asks need to stay so: would you rather right 1 horse sized rat, or 100 rat sized horses?
ah yikes... so my knee jerk reaction is "the 100 rat-sized horses, certainly, as those can be picked off one at a time." however the risk of my conscience catching up to me by the 30th or 40th horse is too great. how much death could I inflict upon these rat-sized horses before I vow to see death no more? even if pure survival instinct drives me through all 100, what of the aftermath? surrounded by the carnage of 100 tiny horses with only my own wet breath among 100 still chests? inconceivable. war is hell.
#lordlochness#thanks 4 the ask very thought provoking great ice breaker#(considering you may have just seen my post at random and dont follow me: i promise im joking)#clearly id decimate all 100 rat sized horses without remorse#(also joking!!!)#(probably)

the way that right before dean punches sam in bloodlust he kind of makes himself look less threatening, smiles a little bit, shakes his head, and then turns around and absolutely swings at him. he wants sam to be surprised by it !! he does want it to hurt !! he does get some level from satisfaction in the act & what it means and that’s really really crucial to just how dean is.
#idk i think dean's physical violence tends to be a lot more thought out than most of the fandom pretends it is#sure he's lashing out in intense emotion but he has a very deliberate way of doing it and i think that’s really important#he pretends like the conversation is over -> punches sam -> he makes his ultimatum -> then it’s really over#he’s making sure he’s getting the final / most impactful say in & trying to reestablish the control he thinks he’s lost#and then everyone says it’s sam’s fault for provoking him but that’s a whole other thing.#sw#dw#star notes

I really wonder if Nathan was raised to be like that or did he just turn this way for some reason after something happened and managed to catches the moriyamas eyes and if neil ever meet his grandparents or knew about them or if they’re even alive, this is so silly but i needed to talk about it !
YES LET'S TALK ABOUT IT
I feel like he had to have been born into it. But like. Let's talk about Nathan.
I wonder if he had a bad relationship with his father, too. I wonder if the only times he felt close to his parents was when he was doing their work with them. And what was it that made him so... nonchalant about killing? Is it something he was born with, an incorrectly wired part of his brain, or is it just something he's been around for so long that it never was a big deal. Was he a child in the back of his father's car while he carried out a hit, staring out the window at the silhouettes of his father pointing a gun or strangling a man. I wonder how he viewed the blood on his dad's hands when he got back into the car. Did he even think about it, or was the comic book in his hands or the streetlights outside far more interesting than whatever it was his dad did for a living?
Did Mary ever meet them? Did Nathan's mother like her, or did she view her as his property, viewing most of the women that married into the family the same way?
Maybe Neil was the oldest grandchild. Maybe he was the only one, a pregnancy unexpected, unplanned and unwanted. Maybe Nathan's mother blamed Mary for it, and with her family in England and her in-laws not caring about her at all, she spent most of her pregnancy alone and scared. But maybe Nathaniel was going to be the thing that would show to Nathan's father that he could create something worthy of approval, something of value. Maybe Nathan pitched Nathaniel's greatness to anyone who needed to hear it, and maybe Nathaniel couldn't fill the boots laid out for him.
I want to say that if the Wesninskis were a multi-generation crime family, maybe Nathan's father knew some member of the older Moriyama family well. I feel like the Moriyamas and Wesninski's would've been allies, but at some point Nathan became a project, similar to Riko and Kevin. But instead of superstars in Exy, he became their hit man. He belonged to the Moriyamas to some degree as well, maybe, and so his father raised him to not flinch at the sight of blood, to be a good shot, to cut the right arteries and slice the right limbs.
I wonder how the Wesninskis died. I wonder if Nathan was involved. I wonder if it was to repay a debt or to fix a slip-up. I wonder if Nathan blamed Mary somehow. I wonder if he ever got to show his father his failed protégé. Or are they still alive? Was Neil's family young enough that his grandparents are still around, somewhere, retired or in prison?

Salutations! Here's more half-baked scribbles because I just can't help myself.
Voldemort has a love for books that rivals Hermione’s. The nebulous feel of Voldemort’s consciousness at the periphery of Harry’s would suddenly snap into laser focus at the forefront of his mindscape whenever Harry studied from a text that piqued his interests. Would practically push Harry aside if he found his attention or notes lacking.
Voldemort's hunger for knowledge was limitless in subject-matter, and makes for a surprising complement to Harry’s wandering mind. Voldemort indulges Harry’s genuine questions where other’s brushed him off or scolded, even finding some amusing. Especially the random thoughts like: aren’t Santa’s elves an awful lot like house elves and did that make Santa a wizard, and what exactly was the difference between alchemy and chemistry, or if there's applied mathematics, does that mean there’s unapplied mathematics?
If the current topics are connected to one of Harry’s classes, Voldemort has him search through specific readings, and circles around conversations with pointed remarks until Harry comes to his own conclusions. He makes learning… enjoyable for Harry. Reminds him that professor Quirell’s instruction was partially responsible for Defense being Harry's favorite subject.
#harry potter#voldemort#tomarry#tomarrymort#tmrhp#harrymort#posting snippets of unfinished story ideas again#I think Harry would have very thought provoking questions#and would suck Voldemort into his nonsense#Harry making Voldemort go through mental gymnastics to make sense of his fuckass ideas#Harry is a dumpster fire#and Voldemort's the kerosene#that's it#that's the dynamic

to all the sports “writers” mad that sharks winning the lottery proves that “tanking works,” i regret to inform you that this team actually tried very hard to win every game. they just suck.
#to me tanking is only bad if the team is intentionally throwing games or messing with injury timelines to lose games and such#a team selling their good players for picks is not bad its literally how the deadline is supposed to function#if you take all these stupid suggestions of playing to win first overall would only ensure that bad teams are bad for a VERY long time#if you want to incentivize poor performing teams to at least try to be competitive at the end of the season then introduce relegation#esp given then way this league for some reason seems hell bent on expanding to like 36 teams#but anyway. what do you want? some team HAS to be number 32 there’s no way around it and given the continual expansion of the league#there are less and less ‘star’ players to go around#it is quite likely some teams just will not have one!#anyway. invent some thought provoking critique please!

There's something about dramas like Our Liberation Notes, Call it love, Summer Strike and Tell Me that You Love me that just heal me and provide me with so much comfort.
#i would add my mister to the list too even thought it was a little too gut wretching to watch.#all these dramas hold a very special and very dear space in my heart#something about the slow moving and mundane but raw and true emotions provoked by the characters speak to me#i find pieces of myself scattered all throughout these dramas#please recommend me anymore that you might think id like!!#also the male leads in these dramas are truly the greenest flags#its so hard to find someone who truly understands and speaks my langauge of hurt and pain and love but watching these dramas makes me feel#less alone and that is why i'll cherish them as i continue this silly journey called life#kdrama#kdramas#melodramas have my heart#i forgot to add soundtrack 1 to the list!!#rant#my liberation notes#call it love#tell me that you love me#summer strike#my mister

Personally, I'd fuck Ralph (see if he lives up to the name), marry Peter (I love that goober) and bc I haven't ever watched mare of easttown, I'm sad to say that Colin would be the one meeting with Princess Diana ☹.

2024 reads / storygraph
Time’s Agent
sci-fi novella
an archaeologist who studies pocket worlds with her wife, with the hope that maybe some had become a refuge from colonisation for her Taino ancestors
when she exits one and the time dilation means she’s suddenly 40 years in an unrecognisable future, where corporations have turned pocket worlds into a commodity for everything from tourism to commuting to factories and unstable landfills and refugee camps
with her wife still within a pocket world she carries, and dealing with the sudden grief of having lost everything and navigating a completely changed world, she seizes one last chance to discover something to redeem herself
#time's agent#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#this is a super interesting concept and I thought it was done pretty well#though I feel like I wanted a bit more breathing space to fully explore all the possibilities.#It’s pretty slow paced and then a ton happens at the end.#I kind of would have liked to see a little more of the life before; more of what it was like studying the pocket worlds?#It’s definitely not a fun one - it’s very plagued by grief and the horrors of a future capitalist hellscape devastating#the environment and people.#Especially from the perspective of experiencing that sudden change all at once & knowing that you had a part in it but couldn’t see it then#But definitely emotional and thought provoking#sapphic books

hello i am here to say two things
i want marlow as a companion so badly please let us know if you make a mod i'd cry/pos
Please tell me anything about your ocs one of my favourite things is hearing about people's ocs or what they're interested in. just rant at me like you've got a red string conspiracy board if you'd like
1. Ahhh you are just the sweetest! Sorry it took me a bit to reply, I really appreciate your words!
2. Thanks so much for giving me an opportunity to share things about Richie. I’m don’t know the best way to put OC lore out there so these kinds of asks help a lot! More to read below :)c
A fact about Richie is that he tried isolating himself in the Glowing Sea before his long trek out to the Mojave Desert. He had just cut all ties in the Commonwealth and heard the earth-shattering news that Mr. House was still alive. He thought the tough conditions in the Sea might calm him down and set him straight, but it turns out manifesting about the man who doomed you in a twisted hellscape isn't very healthy. His time spent there only turned his heartbroken anger into a full blown revenge quest. Surely killing an old flame would make him feel better...right?
The fact of the matter is, even if he hadn’t passed the point of no return in the Sea itself, it would have happened somewhere else eventually. His steady decline was inevitable because he is just... so hard on himself, refusing to accept any kind of help or prolonged companionship. Under his confident exterior, the guilt and grief is eating him alive, and sadly all this self-destruction leeches out onto his friendships and lovers as well.
The sorrows of a man who needs to feel love to be okay, but snuffs it out before it can grow...
#fallout#fallout new vegas#fallout 4#glowing sea#fallout oc#dick marlow#fallout ghouls#my art#asks#thank u so much for the thought-provoking question!!#I really gotta stop pairing meme images with sad text jkcdsbdcbs#I can't help it... he's equally as memeable as he is tragic#but I'm happy to get little bits and pieces of him out there#and I'm also happy with how this little doodle turned out hehe#me? drawing a background? unheard of#I sometimes forget he has like... zero lore posts on my blog LOL#Phewf... I'll get there...#thank u again tho this was very fun

You know, a lot of fanfics have the batkids call Damian “demon” or “demon brat”. And I’m just wondering if anyone actually does call him that. In canon I mean. Do y’all know?
#Bc it does provoke angst thoughts#but I don’t wanna be demonizing characters for things they didn’t actually do iykwim#no pun intended#in fact I tried very hard to phrase that without using the word “demonize” but it wasn’t working#But like think about it#if that is an actual nickname#then it’s clearly a jab at his Al Ghul lineage/connection to the LOA#Which is something he’s worked really hard and sacrificed everything to reject#not to mention that one time he died and went to hell#Considering that in the dc universe you only go to hell if you think you deserve it??#angst galore#But yk#first I wanna know if that’s even a real thing or not#damian wayne#batfam#batfamily#How do I tag

This year I've revitalized my insane love of reading that I had in my childhood/teen years, that up and died 7 years ago. I went from literally never not reading, walking into people in the school halls on a regular basis because my nose was in a book, to totally burnt out lit-degree droput. Literally couldn't finish a book for 7 years. It felt like a part of me died that I'd never get back. It feels so good to actually love devouring books again, and to actually analyze them and think about them with nuance. I've not only already finished by "minimum one book for each month of the year" goal, but already needing more to add to my "to read" pile as I've chewed through 15 titles in the last 10 months.
But also, I am now an adult and have to reconcile with the fact that as much as I want to, I cannot in fact stay up until 3am devouring every page like I need it to live... this feels oddly unfair.
#ive specifically been on a massive gothic horror kick and am loving it#currently reading “Our Hideous Progeny” and while its certainly not my top read of the year its proving an absolute delight#its been a very thought provoking read#reading#booklr#books and reading#books

I desperately want Empire of Death to be the kind of episode that starts conversations and debates and makes people have strong feelings and lots of thoughts. The vibes of everyone being confused/deflated/disappointed are so ahhhh I don’t like it.
#ik people do have thoughts and opinions on it but in a very different way to other eps#like it’s not divisive or provoking it’s just… kinda nothing#and i don’t like itttt#at least be bad in a way that inspires fandom to do things#dw negativity#doctor who#doctor who spoilers#dw spoilers
