Yo, freedom is a total mindfuck. This is a lot harder than I thought it would be.

Grunkle Stan is the kind of guy where if Mabel is having a sleepover and watching her ‘teen girl movies’ he would roll his eyes at it but also halfway through the movie wind up standing in the doorway with his arms crossed and watch the rest of it. Ford is the same way. Halfway through every movie Mabel looks over and realizes the Old Man Surveillance Crew is in the doorway again.

needed to draw the scrunch even if it came directly after one of the most diabolical things he’s ever said

All I’m saying is maybe MAYBE if we had voted in Harris we would still be fighting her for things but they would be semi close to reasonable things. Not things like “please don’t annex greenland” or “please don’t mass deport immigrants from sanctuary cities” or “please dont take away no fault divorce”. Shit, if people had showed the fuck up WE COULD’VE SECURED THE HOUSE AND SENATE!

Do you get that? We could’ve had a relatively easy 4 years to actually build a coalition, to get candidates ready for 2026 and 2028 that could challenge our established congress. Public servants that work for us, not for corporations, with all the oversight and scrutiny of a YouTubers Discord mod’s unflinching eye. We could have done that with relative peace while petitioning for normalish things like school lunches and rollback of book bans and common sense gun legislation and stacking the court.

But now we are gonna be running interference for a million fucking shitshows all at once. Demoralization was step one, now we’re onto full destabilization and invasion.

Y’all had one job and it was to fucking vote.

My boy is allowed outside (invisible fence) and it was really cold today but he was refusing to come in because the foster was at the door so I went out to warm up his paws in my hands and he just yelled at me the whole time I held him as if I could make her stop

My parents foster is the yassified version of my cat but she keeps beating him up and then I have to find my guy who’s used to getting in trouble for fighting and convince him I’m not mad that he’s being hunted for sport

Chapitre 221 - Remaining Laws of Nature

I’m fully in love with the bottom panels - how the Syaorans and Sakuras are transposed over each other. Especially when it’s a glimpse of horrified empathy over the suffering that other versions of themselves have gone through - on top of all the suffering that they themselves have already gone through. 

It feels like such an emotional win that Yuuko says that’s enough. There won’t be any more suffering for them. They’ve all gone through so much that they don’t need any more - more won’t achieve anything. It’s very nice that the suffering-wish-cost-balance-maths also agrees on this front. 

On a different meta level it’s so fascinating that Clamp wrote it this way. It's another moment where you can really see the way their storytelling changed over the years, especially when you compare this moment to something like RG Veda or X/1999, where there is rampant suffering in endlessly horrible ways. Here in Tsubasa Clamp establish a limit - they have Yuuko directly address Syaoran and Sakura and tell them that they’ve gone through enough and they deserve to just live now. It’s a huge shift in emotional focus, in a similar way to how Fai and Kurogane both survived Seresu - another arc that would have ended differently had it been an earlier CLAMP work rather than a later one. 

I just really enjoy their changing priorities over time and how here in their most climactic work the note they keep going back to is, “Actually, that’s enough suffering. You have earned peace.”

People are allowed to read a character however they want, and playing with aus and different interpretations is fun, but I’ve never really understood the fandom’s insistence that Cassie is comphet because it’s so antithetical to how I read her. 

You think Cassie spent years pressuring herself to hide her real feelings and live up to some nebulous feminine ideal even as it made her miserable?

Cassie Sandsmark. Cassie, who declared herself Wonder Girl and outright asked the king of the gods for powers? The same Cassie who couldn’t keep her identity secret for five minutes at a time without blabbing to someone? Cassie, who couldn’t stand the makeover plan she came up with so she ripped the wig off and confessed the whole thing to her crush almost immediately? Cassie, who constantly puts her foot in her mouth, pushes people, and can’t leave well enough alone because she’s so focused on what she thinks is right?

The reason the “Cassie is comphet” headcanon never made sense to me is because it just doesn’t fit her canon character. She's headstrong, sincere, and generally isn’t afraid to go after what she wants. She can’t help but be herself, and any attempt to purposely be something or someone she isn’t doesn’t last long.

Also…. do you really believe Cassie Sandsmark, protege of Diana of Themyscira and honorary Amazon, thinks she has to pretend to be straight? Come on now.

Since I’ve been lurking real deep in the Outsiders fandom lately I figured I’d share what I honestly consider my magnum opus of the last four months since I listened to the musical: a stupidly-giant mostly-accurate spreadsheet detailing what I’ve pieced together to be how old pretty much all the characters are during the plot of the book (and That was Then, This is Now because I got so hyped over Pony being in that book I had to include it), as well as what grades they would’ve been in during what (school) year (so like from September—June of a given year).

Occasionally I’ll see people bring up the age old argument of who’s the oldest/youngest of the gang, and what grade is Ponyboy supposed to be in during the plot of the book, and sometimes I see you guys talking like Darry would’ve been in school with Soda, and like you’re not entirely wrong because it’s all up to interpretation, and he could’ve been at high school with him for a year, but personally I think I could go on for a million years about Sodapop Curtis and school alone, and I’m not going to get into fights over that, but with all the little details about the book that are given to us, that’s not really possible and—whatever. And like how Ponyboy is actually the age he should be in freshman year, because everyone in his grade after being pushed up who has a late birthday would’ve just turned/would be turning 14 in freshman year, but I digress. Not the point here.

The point is, I spent eight hours about a month ago piecing this all together over the span of like three days, and I wanted to share it. I guess it’s important to note that I had to make up some birthdays that I couldn’t find mostly-confirmed somewhere online (someone PLEASE tell me how old Angela Shepard is because she’s the only one I couldn’t find an agreed-upon age for), and that I don’t live A) in or anywhere near Oklahoma or B) in the 1950s/60s, so I took a lot of liberties with when they would’ve started school and whatnot and some of that is based on personal headcanon, like the Curtises having Pony start school a year late because Soda struggled so much in kindergarten and beyond and Pony also had a late birthday and they got worried so they kept him home an extra year.

Basically please just be nice to me about this and please I’m begging you give a poor girl with a brand new teaching certification a reason to talk about how her favorite characters got through school and whatnot I could talk about this for hours clearly thanks and goodbye.

**Also please note this timeline is based on the musical taking place in 1967, but I believe the book takes place in 1965 and I was going by that version of events anyway, so if you’re using this as a reference (which is what it’s meant to be for those who need/want one), you can just subtract two years from everything I guess. It’s all up to interpretation and I’m not saying that everyone needs to agree with this and I don’t WANT everyone to agree with this, I just figured I’d share it for fun, so go nuts.**
