#war is stupid

[no-brain-just-good-omens]

war is so stupid. like. Ohhh did somebody not learn the impulse control needed to not kill people when you have a falling out??

I think. mayhaps. if the people running our countries are going to act like children. then we should treat them like children

People writing the MOST DRAMATIC stories about animals with hierarchies and traditions and betrayals and war and and crushes and spouses and wizened old men sharing great old tales about honorable hares and baggers with fucking SWORDS and CAPES and I just don’t know how to take it seriously anymore.

These aren’t even cute stories with the little cottages in the woods where they bake bread and have tea with their animal neighbors and you feel cozy. These are stories about RABBIT WAR and RUNNING FOR THEIR RABBIT LIVES and RABBIT KINGDOMS FALLING and idk how to not snort and stop caring because rabbits don’t fight wars or bear heirs. That’s human bullshit. Rabbits are too smart to fall for that bullshit.

I am getting sick of seeing posts about Palestine. I appreciate people are passionate about justice all around the world, I know this is nothing compared to the suffering the people getting killed and attacked, I acknowledge that.

But that doesn't make it any less annoying to see it pop up everywhere you go when you're a young adult trying to get your own shit together.

A young adult who isn't able to help others with anything because I don't even have any stability in my own life, I have goddamn issues with not even hating myself or damaging myself, it gets so annoying to see so much of this distant conflict when I'm not even able to properly help myself let alone having the emotional or financial resources and general energy to dedicate to this big political conflict.

Just had to vent this cause otherwise this shit would've kept annoying me until I'd want to comment something rude on an activist's post.

Istg, one more post about this and I'm going to have to block the tag just to keep my mind clear and fresh and as sharp as possible. I feel like it's driving me nuts.

I didn't want to, because turning a blind eye to the suffering of others isn't very cool but when it's getting this repetitive and not getting any positive effect from me viewing it anyways, only worsening things, I'm going to have to.

When violence causes silence

I suppose I should weigh in on the whole Israel/Palestine/Gaza fiasco. I mean it’s happening, I can’t do shit about it, but it’s clear to me that it is an example of everything that is wrong with mankind. I do not, on the whole, pay attention to the news outlets – it’s alarmist, it’s propaganda, it’s sensationalism. It’s work to weed the shit from the fact and honestly there’s so much bad stuff…

The manager from akiba maid war is one of my favorite characters of all time. No one does it like her. Every other character of her type I've ever seen has been a man and that's so profoundly boring.

She has no skills. she has no shame. she is greedy and always in debt. And she is obscenely confident and proud of herself for all of this.

In a perfect world there would be hundreds of these worthless shameless women, but in ours we have few, and we must treasure them.

does anyone realize how crazy it is to have the actor of a mostly headcanoned queer ship say the fans were never crazy and they were right all along after 10+ years of everyone just absolutely going nuts over the said queerbaited ship

Hello ! I positively adore the running joke of Idia unknowingly finding Lilia to be the coolest guy ever whenever he doesn't know it's him, like when Silver described his father, or obviously with muscle red. I can't say what'd be funnier, Idia finding out his online best friend is actually Lilia, resident spooky hyper fairy; or them both never finding out, and it'd become even more ridiculous as time goes on. How do you think it'll play out ? You're always so on point

(Also, though it makes sense, I'm still devastated bat boy didn't get a ticket for the Halloween skeleton train : ( does anyone mentions him at some point ? Like how he'd have fit right in with all those Halloween town little freaks, and how he'd have impressed them with his spooks and scared techniques; after all he's been every Briar Valley's children worst fear on Halloween for centuries. I'm on the eng server and I didn't wanna spoil myself by watching the whole thing on youtube)

Have a nice day !

you and me both, Idia and Lilia being oblivious online BFFs (+ Idia being incredibly intimidated any time Silver brings up his jock gamer dad) is my favorite running joke/subplot. 🤝 it's SO good, to the point where I also am unsure if I actually want it to ever be resolved or not...maybe, like, as a post-canon stinger or something? everyone's standing around covered in overblot ink, and Idia and Lilia's phones go off at the same time...

(legit I do think this is part of why Idia couldn't be present for Lilia's dream, because for some reason Lilia decided he was going to just. embody his past self online. he probably quotes his own battle strategies or whatever in the middle of boss fights. Idia didn't pick up on the whole "oh how weird that we both live on a super remote island" thing, but he would spend thirty seconds listening to General Lilia describing siege warfare and be like "w-wait")

all that aside, however it does end up happening, I do see Lilia being very blasé and all "oh! cool!" about it. y'know, taking it very much in stride! and Idia...very much not.

(can't tell if tumblr is going to chew this into illegibility or not, this will be a fun surprise ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ)

as for Lilia sadly missing out on Halloweentown shenanigans...he does get one little mention as part of an offhand reference to the light music club, but so far no one has brought up how this basically is just Lost In the Book of Liliatown (Sebek's been too busy yelling about not getting to be in the same group as Malleus). 😔 honestly though, it's probably for the best that he got left out, because he would just settle right in and refuse to ever leave. canon would shatter. we would miss out on all the delightful angst of episode 7 because Lilia is too busy eating poisonous shrubbery inbetween practicing his very best screams, and no one can pull him away from it.

(I can hope for a sequel next year though...)

Since Trilla is shorter than Cal, do people assume she’s the younger sibling?

definitely not in the first few years of her redemption/siblingness, but
