Thunderdome
A very curious coincidence of songs! No wonder this text from B2 band has been spinning in my memory for the last few days: "We will compare hearts, we will tear voices, stand next to me, we don't need a hero." And yesterday, and Mister Ghost said his word.
Ghost — We Don’t Need Another Hero (Thunderdome)
youtube
Out of the ruins Out from the wreckage Can't make the same mistake this time We are the children, the last generation We are the ones they left behind [Pre-Chorus] And, I wonder when we are ever gonna change Living under the fear, ’til nothing else remains [Chorus] We don't need another hero We don't need to know the way home All we want is life beyond The thunderdome Looking for something we can rely on There’s gotta be something better out there Love and compassion Their day is coming All else are castles built in the air [Pre-Chorus] And I wonder when we are ever gonna change Living under the fear, 'til nothing else remains [Chorus] We don't need another hero We don't need to know the way home All we want is life beyond The thunderdome [Bridge] So, what do we do with our lives We leave only a mark Will our story shine like a light Or end in the dark Is it all or nothing? [Chorus] We don't need another hero We don't need to know the way home All we want is life beyond The thunderdome All the children say We don't need another hero We don't need to know the way home All we want is life beyond The thunderdome
_________________________
БИ-2 — "Нам не нужен герой"
youtube
Металл грызет усталость Из жизни ты уволен Беспомощную ярость Я разделю с тобою
[Припев] Мы сверим сердца Сорвем голоса Встань рядом со мной Нам не нужен герой
Я знаю очень многих Людей обыкновенных Которые свой подвиг Свершают ежедневно
[Припев]

#I also think american exceptionalism and their bizarre cultural one-way street isolation plays a role#i think it's different if you actually see other countries as equals and see that they have female leaders and realise that it's#not going downhill it's not solving everything it's business as usual and it's just another boring fucking politician#and this makes the gender of the candidate LESS (not saying no) issue people obsess about or feel a need to discuss#(e.g. people laying into the appearance of female politicians? certainly misogyny. making jokes about cooking and shoes? definitely too#but I feel like that was more a 'gotta insult these fucking politicians' and gender being one of the targets when people want to do that)#but if you're the US and giant parts of the populace think they're the specialmost extra complicatedest country in this our planetworld#the fact that it works for so many other countries takes a much lower priority#because 'yeah sure a woman can govern a....'checks notes' Fineland and United Kingdom of England or Germanland'#but the US of freedom? we got a red button and what if she's on her period!!?! We are a REAL country!!'#not to mention how deeply entrenched the idea of the US as being CONSTANTLY under attack is and the president as the PROTECTOR#and that protector needs to be daddy of course#i also think the different attitude to leaders plays a role#because a part of misogyny is how much people love to HATE women - to sink their teeth into them and demonise them for every flaw#so any country that has some kind of weird worship of their leaders or sees them as some heroes or extra-class of person*#in my opinion might have a harder time to elect a woman because the moment a woman becomes a candidate#you just have to find the right flaw to go on and on about to make the population absolutely hate her or question her competency#meanwhile the general slack we cut men means they can do whatever but somehow still be compatible with that concept of leadership#(*not just the US ....though a lot of other countries with similar attitudes to their leaders are not standing out as democracies tbh)

saw alot of comments on prev pages; saying 'i HATE that mean teacher! im gonna FIGHT HIM!!' & i LOVE the energy!! it WOULD be nice. to have that catharsis. but the story of young tidestrider is Not one of catharsis. it is a story of being so small and so special and sucking so bad.

Logan asking Wade if he's been screened for ADHD gives me Emotions because this Logan definitely picked that up at Xavier's school. Was he a teacher? Did he hang around the other teachers enough to pick it up? Was there some x-kid bouncing off the walls who explained it to him?
#deadpool and wolverine#deadpool#wolverine#spoilers#tell me your secrets you depressed ball of claws#was this logan a substitute at least once while the other x men went out and did hero stuff?#did scott explain some student needed extra attention while logan rolled his eyes but made sure to remember the name#did some bright-eyed mutant infodump on Logan as he was just trying to get a beer outta the fridge#does logan see them in wade's manic behavior and suddenly he needs another drink#i do love that we got a disaster wolverine time to speedrun therapy with a madman

I'm hoping episode 3 let's Ruby see the dark side of the Doctor. I feel that adds a very important dynamic to a Doctor-companion relationship, when they see how dark he can be and still choose to travel with him early on.
Rose watching Nine drag Cassandra back to die. Eleven yelling at Amy "Nobody human has anything to say to me today!" Donna begging Ten to stop drowning the spider babies, and then again to go back and save someone in Pompeii.
Fifteen has been FUN and I know he can do emotional range, I've seen his fear and his tears already. But I want to see him dark, and I want to see Ruby respond to that. I think it would add a LOT of depth to their relationship and is something missing.
Plus showcasing the Doctor's flaws (selfishness) will make him a much more interesting character. I want to see some conflict between the Doctor and Ruby.
#wren rambles#doctor who#fifteenth doctor#ruby sunday#something about not letting heroes have flaws#and thus being one dimentional and less interesting#its a flaw i saw them slipping into a bit with thirteen#where she was always the Moral Voice#i LIKE it when the Doctor is instinctually cruel and has to be talked out of it and actively choose to be kind#it makes the character SO much more interesting#and raises the emotional stakes so much#so far fifteen has been FUN#but he hasnt been a rounded character#and until we see his flaws hes never gonna be in the runnings for a favourite#i think the doctor is an inherantly selfish character#and he has to make an active effort to NOT be#“Im his carer” “yes she cares so I dont have to”#im worried a six month time jump removed the opportunity for this kinda thing though#i Need to be able to look at the doctor and know. this is the man who killed a planet#and i havent been seeing that in the character recently#still early days yet though!#the doctor shouldnt be the moral center of the show--his companion should be#i think thats why i love 12 so much tbh#because his whole THING is to choose to be kind#without hope without witness without reward#being “good” (and whatever that means is a discussion for another day) doesnt come easily to him#love isnt an emotion its a promise#i want to see fifteen STRUGGLING to choose to do good#and i want to see ruby witness that

You know what, with Gullveig being one of the CYL winners I think there's a unique opportunity for a "what if" theme for the banner.
What if what if what if?
What if life had been different? What if you were the happiest version of yourself? Or the saddest?
#what if corrin was never taken from hoshido?#or if Valla had been safe?#What if for Robin though we don't need another grima#They've already kind of done this with brave Veronica and Camilla why not take it one step further?#I just hope they don't do archsage soren I actually never liked that costume#Fire emblem#fire emblem heroes#I've drawn these ideas before but now there's the tiniest possibility that it might happen

just read an interview where emerald fennell says saltburn is "gothic" and like..........no, it's not. it simply Is Not That.
you can't have a man fuck a grave and be like "ooh just like wuthering heights! this is gothic" because guillermo del toro and i are both going to fight you
#like......come on. saltburn spoilers ahead.#horror of love doesn't work because the narrative never decides if he did all this for Felix or for Saltburn#if he killed felix With His Hands in the Heat of the Moment maybe you have an argument. but not with poison in a preplanned murder#if the love was for saltburn then we should have gotten another gothic theme - the house as a character#the house as a character doesn't work because it simply isn't#i don't think we ever learned the actual layout of the house and it never was The Other in any scene#the walls aren't even the colors of his eyes!!!#horror of grief doesn't work because he's never out of control#he doesn't kill the others because he's out of his mind with grief. he was Always Gonna Do That.#and also your protagonist isn't an anti-hero because there is literally no point that you're rooting for him#ms fennell please tell me what you think gothic means#anyway what saltburn needed was - more homoeroticism more blood and more of him being a little sex freak#that probably still wouldn't have made it Gothic but it would have been an improved film

Widely referred to as the "Queen of Rock 'n' Roll", she rose to prominence as the lead singer of the Ike & Tina Turner Revue before launching a successful career as a solo performer.Turner began her career with Ike Turner's Kings of Rhythm in 1957.

A hero is only as good as his weapons, so make ‘em count (Patreon)
#Doodles#Original#Another idea smol and I are working on together :D Been a bit!#She came up with the concept on this one and I fell in love with it <3 She's very cool hehe#If you're familiar with the game Minit it has Something of a similar premise - not the same strict time pressure but yes on the time loop#Y'ever notice how in some games it seems like the wandering trader or traveling shop seems to come upon you rather than the other way around#:3c Hm ♪ Wonder how they'd know where you were gonna be :3c#The crux is that you play as the weapons shop owner and you're responsible for supplying the hero and his team with weapons!#Except the BBEG has gotten wise to how the hero keeps defeating him and it sick of it - so the shop owner is cursed to be in a time loop!#I love the concept <3 It sounds so fun to play in and there's still plenty of room to think about the mechanics and how it would be played#As well as the art design! :D#We threw around some character concepts - she's really into Baldur's Gate 3 at the moment so of course they had some influence in hers hehe#Only got the starting party for the moment but there are plans for a full team of 4 plus the shopkeep >:3c And various other NPCs lol#A lot of the gameplay would basically boil down to being a bartering simulator hehe ♪#Very RPG trade-this-for-that style quests - under a time limit! Hehe#Since it's the type of game that pretty much requires replaying sections time-loop-style it's all about how quickly you can trial and error#And then hightail it to where you need to be lol#I think we were also tossing around a nap mechanic to skip right to the time loop reset in case you mess up a run haha#I gotta get back to Majora's Mask at some point I swear#We still have a good bit of concept work to do on the art side of things - she's also been really into pixel art lately and I love pixel art#I also managed to pick up a full release of one of the RPGMakers :D So that's an exciting possibility!#I haven't learned most of its ins and outs yet but I do know About importing custom assets at the very least >:3c#Same with Novelty and I haven't done that yet either lol - all in due time! I hope!!

Mel for the unhinged character bingo!
yessss YEEEESSSSSSSSS
#ask me#so Mel is in the unenviable position of being a very strong character whose rights I support and whose wrongs I also fully support#BUT the way she's treated broadly in the fandom is so pervasive and so consistent and so frustrating to me that#I am in full -must protect my blorbo- mode with her at all times#-Mel's story is over so the only thing left for her to do is die-#-if Mel dies then J can get together with V and they will appreciate her for her sacrifice bc she died a hero who rejected Ambessa-#enough! enough I say!#what about proving to ambessa that she can take the throne for herself? what about the angst of defying her mother and her home country#and opposing those in Piltover who DO want war and want to raze the undercity#what about the magic that she's heavily foreshadowed to have and how it's different from hextech#and how it directly opposes but also parallels what is happening to Viktor#what about her -friends- abroad and the plot Mel was cooking through all of season 1 that has not been revealed yet#there's so much potential for her to have to confront the fact that J was slowly becoming a monster through season 1#and that she can't ignore the undercity forever#also what if whoever Ambessa says killed her brother comes after Mel too!#it is very frustrating to see Mel get dismissed as dead or evil or irredeemable or whatever when she is consistently#the most interesting person in the room in every single scene she's in and the character who shows the most conviction and change#so yeah i will take a bullet for her she is my blorbo I will despise any character who hurts her#and I would cradle her in my arms if she gave me a chance - which she would never! - but a girl can dream#however I also enjoy leaning into the idea that Mel is perceived as being a devil from the outside - Mel leans into it too when it serves#but it's in direct opposition to her ironclad values and the personality that she keeps hidden a layer down#I genuinely think that Mel will have a happy ending - or at least as happy an ending that an Arcane character can get lol#like I fully believe she will take the throne (Piltover) in the end but I can only guess at this point what that will cost her#I love putting Mel in situations but mainly to play with both how creative she can get and also how fucking far she will go to win#which is ANOTHER thing we know is probably true about Mel but has not been put on display yet#also Mel has already done a great job at separating what she wants for herself as a person from just being Ambessa's daughter#but Mel still deserves to get plenty of great therapy for that situation because OH GOD THAT CHILDHOOD FLASHBACK#also Kino is dead? maybe dead?? at least Mel fully believes he's dead so she needs therapy and hugs for that too#I am super normal about her can you tell

songs 6 and 21 for spotify wrapped...!!
For the Spotify Wrapped game
6- Miss Imperius by Broadside. This one gets stuck in my head constantly. They've got a few songs like that, ones that just get into your head and stay there for a week but this is definitely my favorite of the bunch!
21- DYWTYLM by Sleep Token. I mentioned it in another answer to one of these but I have had the album that this song is on on repeat this year. It's one of my no-skip albums.
#Details by Frou Frou has been another no-skip album lately but that's decidedly a different vibe from every other song i've mentioned lol#pretty sure the band is just Imogen Heap and some guy. big fan of whatever they were doing in the 2000s.#they're the ones that made the cover of Holding Out for a Hero that plays in the credits of Shrek 2.#which is the best shrek movie by the way. I watched the hell out of it as a kid but my sibling and I recently rewatched it#and we agreed that it is in fact the best shrek movie.#the shrek soundtracks all go so hard by the way. shoutout whoever did the music licensing for the shrek franchise.#literally nobody has done it like that before or since.#I Need Some Sleep by The Eels is genuinely such a good song and I love it and it perplexes me that it's in shrek 2 but also hell yeah.

oh yeah saw blue beetle last night and one million thumbs up. going into having heard it’s very tokusatsu and comic booky made it one million times better. goofy and stupid in fun ways. i’m so glad we’ve looped back around to comic book movies being like comic books: confusing chronologically and catered to fans willing to put up with wildly specific nonsense. also heck of a great job making a movie about gentrification and colonization out of the chaos of blue beetle lore and corporate blandification i genuinely had fun
#like it’s not the BEST done story about gentrification and colonization. but it’s a very interesting attempt at doing one in the dc universe#also ADORED how they did ted’s old tech i love love love that it was chronologically accurate and cheesy in the best way#of COURSE his tech is outdated he was a superhero TWENTY-THIRTY YEARS AGO!!#when mcu stuff went back in time they just retconned it to be cool futuristic sci-fi stuff too. i ADORE the idea that a) there WERE#superheroes in the last and b) time still passes! them being there shaped the world and influences the superheroes we have now!!#and SO glad to see DC finally capitalizing on their legacy heroes <- the one thing that stands them out from marvel#yeah this was a mediocre movie to the average fan. i think comic book movies should be. fuck blockbuster everyone movies#cbms should be wildly specific and about characters no one’s ever heard of to tell fun stories with them#also love the minimal level of integration with the rest of the dc movie verse#jaime went to gotham university and there was that one name drop of bruce wayne in an ad but SO happy no obnoxious cameos.#this is just another corner of the universe! it’s a coherent WORLD but that doesn’t mean the same individuals need to show up everywhere.#loved it. i know it’s not a great movie but i had so much fun from the moment i saw the intro talking about actual lore#it was 100x improved by what i already knew about jaime reyes and i know that’s a bad thing for non-aware viewers but fuck it. stop catering#to the audience that refuses to read comic books or put up with their tropes. cater to the people who are already here and love it#thank youuuuuuuuuuuu <3 also give people from the cultures superheroes represent more money to tell those superheroes stories . it’s great

...So uh, basically bootleg Suicide Squad featuring not even a comic's accurate team but instead, just random characters picked randomly from throughout the MCU, including even character's that make zero fucking sense to be on the team???
#anti mcu#cant even make their own plot#just gonna go for another film plot instead#like looking into the team in comics and where did the government stuff come from#where did goverment sends them on missions come from#in comics history from looks of stuff they just form cause the avengers are...well...dead....like always with heroes dying in comics lol#but like theres no signs of government#but that is what you know the squad in dc are#a government formed team who have villains as members in exchange for time off their sentences#granted marvel aint copying why the villains do it#but they seem to be copying the government element#and yeah if anyone curious which members make no sense mcu wise#honestly only us agent actually makes sense lmao#bucky we know makes zero sense at this point as hes a hero at this point after being freed from hydra and such#ghost literally at the end of ant man 2 was said to be getting the cure she needs aka her motivation for villain stuff#taskmaster and red guardian literally ended black widow leaving with the freed black widows and such not doing evil stuff#hell taskmaster falls into same area as bucky: mindcontrol- so how the hell does she count as evil#yelena they can't seem to make their mind up on but i generally assume hawkeye show intended for her to not be doing evil sutff anymore#since she only sought revenge on hawkeye thats it#but once told the truth suddenly no longer evil stuff#like only US agent actually makes sense and the lady at the end of the line who i guess is attempt at mcu waller#which...good luck because waller is a good character while this one so far...isnt
