#we were 11

I think one of the biggest things that caused me to be weird (other than being an only child to 40 year old parents) is that instead of getting Percy Jackson books at 4/5 I got ‘Gods and Heroes of Ancient Greece’ by Schwab. So when I started reading myself at 6 instead of reading about Percy going on adventures I read about how each generation of humans is worse than the previous one, how Zeus punished Prometheus for helping people. The uncensored versions of myths that definitely changed the way I developed and thought. While kids around me were reading kids books for fun I was reading how Zeus chased around girls and how Hera punished them. How heroes got torn to shreds by their own dogs for an honest mistake. How kids killed their parents because they were bad for the earth and they couldn’t advance like that.

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

DOCTOR WHO | Let's Kill Hitler (6.08)

[cubbihue]

Peri was very upset about a lot of things that happened. Within a span of a week, he felt like his entire life has changed for the worst!! He had a dumb bulb on his wand, Timmy was still moving away, and he had to go to a school far from everyone he knew!!!

Of course, the cause and trigger of those emotions was Timmy. But Peri can’t blame his older brother for any of that. So the next logical conclusion for a small child to reach was to blame his parents instead!!! And boy did he blame a lot on his parents.

Many of Peri’s actions in his childhood stems from misplaced grief and anger. By the time he was old enough to know better, Peri got a mixture of stubbornness and a bruised ego to admit he was wrong for how he reacted.

Photo in the wallet is crazy. Do you know how many photos of people I have in my wallet. Zero. Because there are zero people I’ve been in love with for eleven years without saying anything and have slowly fallen into a common law marriage with.

I know once you start looking at numbers in AFTG you can’t stop.

And yet here is another post about it.

The number 5 is consistent in especially TSC. Small things, like tries to get up when Jean wakes up at Abby’s and tries to run, five numbers programmed into Jean’s new phone, five Trojans at the first meet/party at the house.

And bigger things, too:

Kevin was 9 when he came to Evermore, Jean was 14 (5 year difference)

Jean fought Riko with blood and teeth for 5 months until he didn’t have the strength.

Jean stayed at Evermore for 5 years.

Jean and Kevin’s numbers add up to 5.

“Five volunteers to break him in, Zane’s betrayal to destroy him, and one promise that kept him alive despite it all.”

And, of course:

A cool evening breeze. Rainbows. Open roads. Teammates.

Friends?

Five reasons to stay.

My dad: “now I’m not like anti-capitalist or whatever, I believe in capitalism, but: [the most anti-capitalist statement you’ve heard about exploitation of the masses through monopolized markets of overpriced commodities that have become required in every day life]”

I’m convinced so many people would be socialists or even communists if those terms didn’t exist surrounded by tons of vague language and propaganda that’s poisoned anyone born before the late 80s from being able to comprehend a better option than what we have because obviously everything else has to be worse, right? There’s no room for improvement at all! This is as good as it gets!!

Coroika Splatoon but it’s PHIGHTING! Roblox

Hi to my Coroika and phighting fans so how are we feeling about this one

cooked these up in a few hours! These honestly didn’t really take that long at all and were really fun to do since I got to play around with some charcoal brushes (I love doing everything in my power to NOT use midtones lmfao).

I tired to mimic the style of the manga a bit and I think i did relatively okay! I have a lot more of these planned so yeah >:3! Really excited to get to do them sometime

the real reason endou (or any of the other members of raimon) never clocked that anything was going on with fubuki was because if you had to deal with the dramatics of gouenji and kidou on a daily basis too and just everything they went through in the FF, you'd look at a kid that changes his name every time he scores a goal and be like: 'sure man whatever you say.'

Focus on chimera. The door. Possible Anya past arc coming? I'm excited???

Okay, two weeks to go, putting my cards on the table: there is no way in hell that Barriss is going to be an Inquisitor. That's not what this is. Everyone’s taking for granted that because the trailer sets up her training as an Inquisitor that means that we’re seeing a corruption arc for her, but just. Look at her. There is not a single frame of this trailer where she is not visibly looking for the exit. There is not a single frame of this trailer where she isn’t either visibly masking what she’s feeling or just looking determined to survive. This isn’t a start of darkness; it’s Ahsoka getting hunted for sport in Padawan Lost.

We aren’t doing the “we’re setting Barriss up as an Inquisitor so we can give her a redemption arc later” scenario. This is the redemption arc, this is her facing an in-universe attempt to force her into the fanon Inquisitor!Barriss mold that she doesn’t fit into at all, and she’s going to prove it and she’s going to outsmart all of these actual fallen Jedi she’s surrounded by who are trying to make her be like them. When Order 66 happened, Barriss was sitting defenseless in a cell and was offered a series of choices that weren’t real choices. But she knows that, she is not buying into it, and that offers her one, incredibly dangerous route to freedom: convincing them to trust her enough to send her into the field with a lightsaber.

It’s going to be rough, it’s going to be an incredibly dangerous, difficult path for her to navigate—they will make her do some messed up stuff to prove herself and for a moment it might look like she's given into despair—but she’s going to come out the other end of this miniseries having rejected both the Empire and the dark side. Not only as a Jedi in every way that matters but also as someone who is equipped with knowledge of how the Inquisitorius operates, which she can use to save as many people as she can from them—because she knows what happens when they take you alive.

And she's going to do it all onscreen in a story that is about her, she is the main protagonist here, and that is frankly something that was beyond my wildest dreams.

This isn’t wishful thinking on my part, this isn’t me trying to do a preemptive rewrite—this is me looking at what’s onscreen in this trailer, at what they’re telling us, at what they’re not telling us, and seeing the story laid out in front of us.

The only way out is through.
