i have one video i've been wanting to make about a certain splatoon lore topic so badly for some years now and i wanna do it soon. but every time i think about it i can feel myself going insane. there's so much i need to say. how do i structure this in a way that makes sense. does it even make sense at all. to me? god help me
#rassicas speaks#spoilers: yep its the water thing.#stares haggardly at mirror with my hands white knuckle gripping on the sides of the bathroom sink. splashes water in my face#i feel like ive cracked open a fucking conspiracy. ITS ALL CONNECTED ITS ALL FUCKING CONNECTEDDDDD I FEEL INSANE#stares at my corkboard with strings. punches wall#the water weakness is not as stupid and disjointed as everyone thinks and i have to prove it.#the disconnect between the west and JP in terms of acceptance of the water weakness lore is fucking insane#there's a video from a edutainment quiz youtuber in JP. not a splatuber mind you. that talks about osmosis and how it connects to inklings#the canon explanation mind you. this video has a million views!!!#a million fucking views!! its a video for casuals!! everyone knows inklings canonically die in water and the reason is related to osmosis!!#meanwhile if you bring up the concept of inklings dying in water on the western side with hopes to theorize according to canon lore#and i will. present the dev interview that outright confirms the reason is related to osmosis.#u know what happens. um actually they only die in fresh water! um no they dont die in water they just cant swim! DO U KNOW HOW INSANE I FEE#jp side has been speculating on how the osmosis thing actually works on inkling biology for years#and the english side cant even get over the hurdle that the water weakness is like. real undeniable canon#like i get that info is less accessible here. as i will prove. in my video eventually.#but holy fuck it makes me crazyyyyy when i actually do present stuff and ppl cover their ears anyway. this has happened a lot.

Sonic, age 10, knows how to fly a plane and it's all Chuck's fault
#miscellaneous au#it's really funny#im debating on The Tornado actually being a plane Nikki (Sonic) and Chuck built together#Nikki just yoinks it to go to west side island#this would also give Chuck a lot of guilt for giving Nikki the resources to just. leave.#(Chuck was closest to Nikki bc they were similar adventure-loving ppl)

Hey, hey, hey!
Employees who are friends have a better time on shift together, making them more productive. Stop separating employees who are having fun
#at least in my experience#i get a lot more done faster when I'm with with coworkers i see as friends#because we actually communicate easier than if we don't get along#I'm also upset because my manager on Saturday moved my two friends because we were having fun#we got everyone in and the guy who hired said it was the fastest the lines gone in a few years#but supervisor d thought that we were having too much fun#so my two friends were moved to the west and south sides while i stayed east#why do higher ups and employers do that?#I'd think that anything goes as long as we're professional amd get the job done

Midland Drawing
Hello there my tumblr besties! The time has come for the 8th instalment of Kaboom drawing TMG songs!
So there’s a bit of a story with this one! I once had a list of songs to draw. But then I lost that list. Midland was on the list. Between the points of losing the list and a few weeks ago I had admittedly forgotten this song exists (I love it I swear, but there’s just so much in life to remember these days..). That was until I saw a post from @jennyfromthebes about midland being a great song and I was like OH YEAH!!
So that’s how this drawing came to be! I hope you like it!
I had so so much fun drawing these possums!!!
#I’ve got room#room in my house for you#the mountain goats#tmg#tmg posting#art#artists on tumblr#digital art#doodle#tmg lyrics#all hail west texas#midland#ok so#this drawing#was going to be a quick one. um but it actually turned out to be one of the longest ones#3 hours 33 mins to be exact#but I had fun making it#I know it doesn’t look like it but this actually took me a lot out of my comfort zone (with colouring and shading and such)#I am pleased with the outcome though!#oh but side note: sorry the text format is kinda ugly. I forgot to add that to my plan and this was the only way that it was still legible#possums#kaboom the possum posts about possums#omg#🐐

Starting Journey to the West assuming its the story about a silly goofy monkey going on monster-of-the-week adventures with his friends:
Reading about Sun "was-definitely-a-warlord" Wukong smashing the upteenth person's head into a meat patty but a few chapters in:
#come for the silliness stay for the gore lol#journey to the west#jttw#xiyouji#sun wukong#monkey king#asdfaaew SO OBVIOUSLY this is a very rich text with a LOT going on#hence why any footnotes provided are critical for understanding a lot of the cultural historical and even environmental context#but coming at it from a western perspective#it IS kind of wild just how much the silly goofy side of swk's character has come to dominate understandings about this monkey#whereas you really don't see many western representations that emphasize the cunning & ruthless & ultraviolent aspects#anyway I'm not surprised that there's numerous people who've been left shocked at just how violent og classic JTTW is#looking at the story from popular retellings gives you a VERY different impression of what the og is like

Question: why can't Broadway musicals tape their performance and put it up on a platform for rental while the shows still on Broadway?
Obviously you charge a fair price for the rental, make it like 48 hours and cost maybe whatever their general admission ticket costs. Then, after the musical comes off Broadway, you make that original cast recording avaliable to buy permanently (like including downloads) for that general admission ticket price and knock down the rental price.
Now you'd have to either come up with a streaming service or license it out to one which is not ideal, but it would vastly improve the availability of musical theater especially to people who live outside of New England or people who don't have thousands of dollars to drop just to go see a musical. Not to mention it could help make newer musicals more accessible and easily spread, and don't get me started on accessibility especially when it comes to physical disabilities that would disallow travel or actually seeing a musical in person. This would also allow people to see the musical and then maybe go watch it in person, which increases revenue.
It also allows a continuous revenue stream for the creative team and possibly actors (depending on how contracts are structured), particularly in cases of musicals with specific historical or literary settings that could be used in classrooms (think Hamilton, West Side Story, Fiddler on the Roof, the upcoming The Outsiders, or like every Shakespear play ever). Or even if a musical is really popular and gets a cult following like 30 years later, it would be available in a watchable format and not just as a soundtrack. Plus it'd get rid of people going to musicals for the sole purpose of uploading a slime tutorial.
#broadway#musical theatre#broadway musicals#i say this because I wanna see the new outsiders musical and can't afford too#like it would be probably 2K conservatively to do a full trip#if I just went for the show and maybe an overnight it'd be like 1200#which is 1200 I don't have#the outsiders#the outsiders a new musical#ponyboy curtis#darry curtis#sodapop curtis#two bit mathews#dally winston#johnny cake#johnny cade#steve randle#alexander hamilton#hamilton musical#west side story#fiddler on the roof#idk I feel like this could work#but theater people are either the nicest humans#or the most pretentious#and I feel like a lot of broadway people can be pretensious#like i live not within driving distance of NY it's a literal kidney for me to see a broadway show#it's money I will Probably never have#a lot of people will never have#so just let us have this#Hamiton and Newsies have stage recordings that are both wildly popular

In my observations:
Very few TERFs are actually male separatists. Almost all the ones in the public eye are absolutely not. You occassionally find some of the tiny percentage who talk up separatism right here on tumblr, but that's because tumblr is a place where people constantly drop extreme, supposedly radical, and mostly bullshit ideas.
2. That means you will notice that while TERFs talk a lot about how abusive men are the reason why they have to persecute trans women, they actually do not hate most of the men in their lives. They usually live their life just as surrounded by men as the average cis woman, and do not wish otherwise.
3. TERFs see trans women as men, but they also place them in a certain category- they are both cis men but also not at all like cis men. They would vastly prefer the company of a cis man. Especially one who they suspect would never, ever remind them of the trans women they hate. This is why you see them becoming suspicious of the slightest sign of gender nonconformity in the men around them. I literally saw a woman on mumsnet stressing because her husband wore nail polish. People were telling her to be careful in case he transitions. (How odd because at one point they were going on about how 'oh dress however you want just don't try and call yourself a woman/man!')
4. This is my clumsy attempt to explain why while blanket hatred of men on principle is obviously not unrelated to transmisogyny, in practice it's in my opinion pretty misguided to assume that cis men as a category are the focus of TERFs.
#tw transmisogyny#to be clear to anyone reading this- sex separatism isn't radical or in any way more pure in ideology#i'm just saying that because despite hating terfs many leftists on here go for the 'more radical=better' thought process a lot#you know- the same thing terfs do with their whole libfems are pathetic and embarrassing thing#being more radical is not always better! in fact it can be much much worse. terfs are not the only example.#it's also those people who side with oppressive regimes purely because they are anti west#and similar

I like imagining that Dally used some of the stories he had from New York as a way to try and keep Ponyboy and Johnny in line and not fuck around doing stupid stupid shit because he never wanted to see them in the sorta position he saw so many other people get themselves into.
#this was inspired by pony saying#‘dally had seen people killed on the streets of New York’s west side.’#which implies that Dally TALKED about all the shit that he saw while over in New York#he wasn’t all mysterious about it#it’s also from when dally said#‘but don’t you kids get to picking up my bad habits’#which means even if he doesn’t say it a LOT he does want them to be better than him#wants them to be better in GENERAL#that was for cussing I’m sure he would never want to see them doing REALLY illegal shit like him#wouldn’t ever want to see them hurt#he ‘looked sick’ when he saw Johnny hurt#and then yknow killed himself when he died#he cared about them a lot#mostly Johnny but he cared about Pony too#the outsiders#the outsiders 1983#ponyboy curtis#johnny cade#dallas winston

started to think about and cry about my dog dying at some point or overall that ill have to leave him and have to live without him since next year. then i came into my bedroom and he as usual did that sneaky little thing where he hide in the bedsheets and prays and hopes i dont notice him and kick him out like i usually do (because he goes on a walk early and im sorry but i am mot waking up an hour before than i need to to let him out of my room). needless to say he won and is sleeping on the bed tonight
#i never even thought of what do u do in such situation#i dont want to know but i need to ig#but im more worried about the fact that my parents will most likely go move back to ukraine. on the west side but still#sirens are there too#and he does not do well with loud noises and he will be scared and stressed and parents don't comfort him much#and he needs a lot of comfort in those moments :(#he will be so stressed and panicked all the time#obv my parents too but talking about pets here so#and we will have to leave our cat here too cuz she's a street cat that just wandered into us but she def won't let us make her move ortravel#:(((((((((((((€-*/#djsjhabjhevsbfjdusi#rumaiq rambles

i'm so glad the writers of smallville contrived a way for lois to spend a few episodes in high school so we could get my favorite tv moment of all time
#also i always get the song from that episode in my head#(not avril lavigne; the other one)#side note maybe it's the new superman movie coming out but suddenly half my twitter feed is smallville-related#between that and the west wing it's gotten a lot more pleasant (in my little corner at least)

In music we're watching Westside story and like damn these poor men and their fragile masculinity
Also the stuff with the snapping and whistling is cool
Definitely is a thing of its time tho
Not complaining that much though cuz I love musicals and the music is good
I wouldn't listen to it but I do think it funny watching these delinquents doing silly dances
And then suddenly without warning murder!! Oh no this could never escalate into something oh wait this musical is based off Romeo and Juliet
I wish my music teacher didn't tell us that because it gives a way a bit
Like I know what happens in Romeo and Juliet
#drink printer ink#rant ?#I'm talking a lot about media rn huh#west side story#its an older version I dont remember what the year is#i do know there are multiple versions of it tho#year 19 something something#idk

i willll get the ace attorney game(s) one day....... :') BUT ive been quite interested in tdp for a while now but somehow i never got to watch it. if you say the last season just aired maybe its a good time to do it then mmm actually what is the show abt i know nothing besides the title so. i assume theres a dragon prince in there but idk anything else. and there are doomed siblings too ???? 👀
Yesss the last season just came out!!! I really love it it starts off kinda fun adventure similar in vibe to atla but in the later seasons it gets a bit darker.. like it's still a show targeted at like. older kids/young teens but is that demographic while still telling a compelling story with heavy topics and good character arcs. the first few episodes of the final season really heavily focus on siblings there's not one not two but three main doomed siblings!!!! There is a dragon prince but he's kinda just chilling tbh. callum the main character is my best friend forever I love him sm sm I'm also really liking his character moments lately.. excited to watch the rest of the new season but also so sad for it to be over I've been watching since near the start of the show ...
#hmmm . trying to think who you would like. well i just think youd love callum and ezran . the siblingsisms#tia answers#miki 💜#its set in fantasyland tbh and the base premise is there was a war and the land was split by a giant rift in the centre and the humans were#exiled to the west because i think they were misusing magic or something like that and all the magic creatures dragons elves etc are in the#east side and there's a lot of hostility on both sides#and the main trio initially is callum and ezran who are the princes of one human kingdom#and callum is the kings stepson so not actually in line for the throne even tho hes older. and then rayla who is an elf she was sent to#assassinate the king but ends up joining with the other two to try and make things better#and after the first 3 seasons theres a time skip of i think 2 or 3 years and. well i won't say anymore i don't wanna spoil#its good. the voice acting makes me cringe a little sometimes because. its kindoffff bad on occasion but most of them are okay .#callum shares a va with sokka atla i believe
