Olympics have reminded me in Italy we call our gymnasts (female sector) Fate, which means “Fairies”. Izumi, you would be such a good gymnast for our country in another life.
But no, let’s make her a model. She could have still become a gymnast in Japan, but nope better making her a model and giving the male mc a sportive goal (I like Takuya as a football player but you know…)
#izumi orimoto#digimon frontier#izumi#ehhh I like Izumi as a model and I know she’s going to do something else but you know#I wish they told us#you all complain about Junpei as a tenor but sit there thinking it’s ok#that Izumi got the treatment of We don’r care what she does#we raise our hands#aka we don’t know how to write her future do whatever you want#ehhhhhhhhhhh#anyway Izumi plz become a fashion designer at least#give me a devil wears prada smh#between you and ranamon ofc kisses#zura rambles

It’s kind of funny that people keep arguing about which love interest Klaus Mikaelson loved the most when canonically he would have screwed his family over in order to bring Cami O’Connell back from the dead. And knowing him, he would have justified it perfectly.
#klamille#cami o'connell#klaus mikaelson#the originals#antis dni i don’t have patience for your nonsense#reference? TO 4x11#klaus was gonna dagger kol for betraying the family and putting hope at risk to save davina and kol got him to relent by reminding him#that he would have done the same thing for cami#and fair because camcam kept her faith in him even when his family didn’t given everything the fam endured at his hands#she was the person whose faith he wanted to keep#and they had to kill my girl off to quote unquote make the family tighter because by that point our man only wanted two things#getting to raise his kid and spending time with cami#but lest we forget she was the reason his familial relationships became healthier and his siblings got to see the likeable nik again#nah i blame their marketing so much for the disrespect cami and klamille get#they were making the guy live and die on her sword while the marketing for them was just zilch#and they were audaciously saying stuff like klaus doesn’t have a love interest when cami was CAST as his love interest#m talks klamille

I went to an Ilan Pappé talk yesterdays - I really recommend his books if you've not checked them out already. He's arguably one of the worlds leading experts on Zionism and the "Israel"-Palestine conflict, so obviously everything he said was great, but what I want to highlight:
Someone asked him if he thought the protests and petitions and calling you reps and shit would work, and he said no, it never will. It's still important to do that but the powerful will never surrender their power to the powerless just because they ask for it. Asking the UK and the US to cut ties with their imperial outpost in the Middle East is like asking an animal to gnaw off it's own limb - it won't do it unless its only other choice is dying completely.
So who does have the power to put a stop to this, we asked. The working class of the imperial core. That's us, and we are the most powerful people in the world right now, because this war machine can't function without us. Movements like this can only be built from the ground up, so stop looking to the government and start looking to your community. We need to make it more unprofitable to support Israel than it is to cut ties with it.
This is a call to action. The people HAVE the power, and we have to use it. Yes, that's you. Contact your trade union, your workplace, your school, your church, your university. Your friends, family, any connections you have. As many people on board as possible, with one goal: shut it down. Take direct action now.
#were seeing this all over the world so i know we know all this but it bears repeating#stop lamenting on how you wish you could do more. you can#the power is with you#we have to stop begging the government and take it into our own hands#idk we could do so much more#your voice matters it really reallt does#also don't let yourself get distracted#i keep seeing that thing w the watermelon filter on tiktok that apparently raises money#and like sure do that if u have a second#but it isn't really helping palestine because none of that money is getting through#its just another thing keeping you distracted#idk man#ill make a post more abt direct action and shit and what you can do in your community#and what to push for in your school uni ect#anyway yeah#palestine#gaza#israel#free palestine#ilan pappe#mine

hot loz take: we don't actually know what zonai look like. we know what RAURU AND MINERU look like.
imagine if like... zora. had never been depicted onscreen before. and then when we finally meet some, it's mipha and sidon and no one else.
the fandom would draw from this: zora are red with white markings. zora are shark-like. zora girls are very short and zora boys are very tall. zora have yellow eyes. zora have fins on their shoulders and elbows and waists.
but that's not true, is it? imagine, then, that in that world where we only knew mipha and sidon, there was an item called, idk, the ancient queen's aspect, and when you put it on it turned you into, say, queen oren from albw.
and the fandom would look at this and say, that can't be a zora. sure, she's fish-like, but think of all the differences! she's not red and has no white markings. her eyes aren't yellow. she has no shoulder/elbow fins. she's not a shark! zora are sharks, as we all know. her waist fins look nothing like zora waist fins. does she even have legs? couldn't possibly be a zora. she looks nothing like one!
but she is a zora. we know this, because we've seen many kinds of zora and know they are a diverse species that also evolved a lot over time.
this brings me to the ancient hero.
many people have said this can't be a zonai. zonai are gray, and he's green. zonai have white sclera, and his are black. zonai have three eyes, and he only has two. zonai have human like feet and he has paws. zonai don't have tails, but he does. zonai have big furry ears but his are more hylian. zonai have white hair with coloured accents, but his is red.
but. no. guys.
rauru and mineru are gray. rauru and mineru have white sclera and three eyes and human like feet and no tails and big ears and white hair. rauru and mineru have these things. that doesn't mean every zonai matches that description.
plus, this is, presumably, the ancient hero who fought the first calamity. which was thousands of years after rauru and mineru were alive. i think it's not unreasonable to assume there could have been some evolution there. and even if there was no evolution at all and zonai are exactly the same as they were when rauru and mineru were alive. there is no reason the ancient hero can't be a zonai.
#thank you for listening to my ted talk#totk#loz#zonai#original post#or imagine this is if like. we'd only met teba and tulin and then met medli#'that cant be a rito! she's too human like! she has hands! she's not white and gray! as rito are! which we know from our two data points!'#like. rauru and mineru are siblings. of COURSE they look similar. that doesn't mean their ENTIRE RACE looks that similar#and if you want to say that rauru and mineru and the ancient hero are all from the same game while mipha and sidon and oren are from#different ones and therefore nintendo should be more consistent. i raise you: instead of oren the third zora in this scenario is muzu#i bet you'd still get the 'thats not a zora' reaction#he's green but zora are red. he's a manta ray but zora are sharks. his waist fins are too long. zora have much shorter waist fins.#so this guys is clearly a new race!#like i enjoy the speculative races people make for the ancient hero to be part of. but he's a zonai. he's very clearly a zonai.#he's just not directly related to rauru and mineru (our two data points) and so doesn't look exactly like them.

Tumblr is like a medieval manuscript the way people spell penis in such different and creative ways
#it's like one time I was in Japanese class and a bunch of us raised our hands to go write our sentences on the whiteboard#and as we were writing the professor said everyone has such interesting ways of writing hiragana#which is not what you want to hear while writing hiragana on the board

I love telling Hugo, a dog who I raised and whose surroundings I control, that he's a City Boy for being confused as hell on a farm
#born in texas and raised in oklahoma and NO I don't know what a horse is WHAT is wrong with that large and sick dog#anyway I'd do anything to know what he thought of the whole thing#we handed off our rooster to some cool lady who already keeps roosters that ppl didn't want#and she was nice enough to walk us around her property and shit#Hugo got to see.. a hog. horses. a mule. a goat. many chickens but he knows what chickens are.#he also got to see a very enthusiastic puppy who really wanted to play with him#hand to god I almost could not get Hugo to go near the fence to see the horses#he was also scared of the hog. but he warmed up to her#sergle.txt

I knew my old place of work treated us like dogshit. I knew England treated minimum wage workers like they're less than human.
But nothing has driven that fact home more than telling my new coworkers about what Tesco was like and having them look at me in absolute horror.
#'oh yeah I made about £800 a month working 40 hour weeks'#*eyebrows raise in horror*#'Yeah our store had 200 employees on the clock daily.'#*Visible fear* '.... we've got.... 2...'#'that was day AND night though. so not all at once'#*blinking* 'It was open 24/7????'#'Sure fucking was!!!'#my manager handing me a pallet jack and going 'I assume you know how to use this'#and I had to tell her i literally wasn't allowed to touch them because 'safety' and i wasn't 'specially trained'#'I have never been on checkouts though so you'll have to explain like i'm 5'#'how have you never been on checkouts???'#'oh I was only ever on dairy'#'YOU WERE ONLY EVER ON DAIRY??? HOW FUCKING BIG WAS THIS STORE?'#Her going 'I'm sorry it was kinda busy on your first shift'#and me thinking back to the maybe 50 customers i had#buddy i have seen HELL and I came back in tatters#I did this shit of hardcore mode for 4 years#this is fun to me compared to fucking TESCO#i miss England in a lot of ways#but man do I not miss the way they treat their people one fucking bit#5 years on and i'm still getting used to being treated like a human being again#that shit has stuck with me#i've been at new job for 3 weeks and still every day before i start i have a tight ball of anxiety in my chest#until i walk in and my body remembers i'm not going back to Tesco#we don't need the stress response anymore#we can relax now#wild

I really need to sit down and draw perhaps the funniest, but potentially most dangerous move I ever did in d&d and it was back in my first game-
#the party didn't trust this noble or king or something to actually pay us for the job we got hired for#and I hadn't been rping much because New and Scared and Nervous#but I was playing a rogue! I had really high dex so my stealth and pickpocket were pretty good#so I very quietly raised my hand and my little elf went “if you guys promise to help me if it goes wrong... I could just steal it”#and EVERYONE went “nooo no way you'll def fail and get killed or jailed and it'll fuck us out of the job entirely”#and I took that personally you see#and the paladin.... was the one who really put his foot down#so I.... waited for everyone to file out of the house to go home... and turned to the DM and was like#hey... you can tell me no and I'll let it go and drive home BUT#can I roll to pickpocket the paladin's sword off him and then see if the player noticed it gone from his inventory?#just to prove a point#and my dm god bless her let me!! and rolled for the pally's perception to see if I got caught instantly#and wouldn't you know it... I pulled it off clean as fuck#so next session rolls around and we spent like 30 minutes with me sweating like I'm high at a job interview with the cops#before the DM was like okay gang roll for initiative and I almost physically stood up to be like HEY REAL QUICK#SIR PALADINSON YOUR SWORD DON'T ASK WHY I HAVE IT RIGHT NOW WE GOTTA FIGHT#so I almost locked our front liner in combat without his sword out of spite LMAO#IN MY DEFENSE I was a rogue and was on such good behavior and hadn't done anything illegal until that point#also yes that really was the paladin's name we were all new to dnd and hadn't clocked what vibes we wanted at the start#Candra has really gone places since this but that spite... that is core to her lmao

Can people stop saying gen alpha is awful? my kid is four years old ffs and the oldest ones are fourteen - so maybe we could idk stop blaming them? - Because they're like, and I know this is a crazy concept, but they are CHILDREN
#I remember growing up as a millennial and we were also called awful - it still persists and we rolled it into gen z and now alpha#number one thing I hear- they're all addicted to screens!! ipad babies balshsuwhgajags go#want to know why they are called ipad babies?#its not because they are just handed a tablet nope it's because they were born the year the ipad came out#ofc some of them are but hey raise your hand if your parents left you with the tv as a babysitter#and the younger alpha's parents have learned from the mistakes of the older alpha kids parents - you know like every generation ever#omg baby einstein is bad - well thanks for the research - not like we understood when our eyes were rotting from sesame street and barney#and now we know and me and our kids friends parents work our asses off to make sure they don't over do it with screen time#because at the end of the day MOST OF US ARE ADDICTED TO SCREENS#alpha parents just hand them a screen NO BITCH ITS GRANDMA#parent venting#twotaleshomelife

i think the tl gets this across great but for full context, the saying kuukou’s using here is transliterally ‘the buddha’s face thrice over’ which is an analogy used to say that even the most gentle of people will lose their cool when repeatedly subjected to injustices
but kuukou follows this up with ‘i’ll laugh it off no matter how many times’ which is him telling us no matter what life throws at him he’ll be positive thru it all and face with a smile
#vee queued to fill the void#hypanispoilers#and hELP I LOVE HIM WITH THE PASSION OF A MILLION SUNS#BUT ITS STILL NOT BRIGHTER THAN HE IS OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUGHHHHH 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭#THE YOUNG GUN OF THE SUN IN ALL HIS GLORY ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️#they brought back the writer of kaigen and he tweeted out those lyrics wouldn’t have happened without his experience we gave him#how we all raised our hands an prayed for collective guidance during bat’s 8th live day two#kuukou and bat’s last verse in next stage where they go#‘this is only the preface even if there’s ups and downs we’ll be okay gasshou bad ass temple’#is afro-san directly referencing that live experience and thanks afro-san i’m crying over bat and the 8th live all over again 😭😭😭😭😭😭#no matter what happens we’re in this together with bat i love a family who wants to walk down hardships with you we’re all family 😭😭😭

the most fucked up part about making dnd characters is you can do whatever you want with them but it come at the cost.... of having to actually play whatever it is you come up with
#we finally ended our filler campaign and are going back to the main event#sam plays dnd#one one hand ive literally not felt this kind of rush for years#like i cannot describe how much time ive dedicated to this world and these specific characters lives#on the other ough making characters.... hard#like i always have trouble with life goals and pinning down specific personality traits#i think maybe i need a coffee or just some caffeine cause the thoughts are in there i can feel them... i just cant organize them#stupid fucking adhd 😭#also i offered for one of our new party members if he wanted to play one of siblings#and weve really been popping off this week thinking of ideas#so thats nice#i think i also wanna find my notebook of gen 2 to try and sorta remember the vibes cause the character from then raised me#so of course thats how my personality should be based off of
