Do y’all ever think about how Vegeta’s only ever mad at Freeza for what happened to his planet and he’s never mad at Freeza for what happened to him because I think about that a lot
#Like I think the anime portrays their relationship as much more abusive but Toriyama seemed to be consistent in the implication that#Freeza treated Vegeta VERY well — even Vegeta talks about his time on the frontline being voluntary and the only time he talks about being#“Worked like a slave” is to describe how Zarbon treated him. In the manga Vegeta implies Freeza usually refers to him with fond greetings#‘my dear’s and the like. Freeza was so quick to offer him a promotion in ResF and coo about Geets’ loyalty — which I think about a lot#as well — especially in terms of how totally fine Vegeta used to be with killing other saiyans but that’s another essay#Point is. I’m a huge fan of gilded cage theory. Not quite Mother Gothel levels like they’re a corporate military but I do always describe#Geets as Freeza’s favorite wardog and I think a big part of the culture shock for Vegeta having healthy relationships with people is#The idea that relationships do not have to be transactional with value based on performance — because if Freeza was always fond of Geets#In the way that King Cold is fond of Freeza (which seems true based on Freeza offering Goku Vegeta’s job right after he dies iirc) then it#For all the fucked up things that it is — was the most supportive relationship Vegeta had up until Bulma (or Gohan). At least from someone#who wasn’t dependent on him like Raditz and Nappa were — which loops back into transactional dynamics even if/though they were sincere.#What I’m saying is#The learning curve was so steep for this man and he still (hesitantly) took the offer to borrow some climbing gear and get to work#And I love him your honor what a great character#dbtag#headcanons

I mean this with all the good intentions in the world but please stop calling Ashton a man. Please stop choosing one set of pronouns bc it’s “easier.”
Sincerely, a trans person who feels more and more dismissed each time it happens.
#ashton greymoore#critical role#Yes They are a fictional character#but the amnt of times someone decides to gender a nonbinary person bc it’s “easier” IRL tends to be a constant source of dysphoria for ppl#and to see it done in a fandom as queer as this is painful#maybe someday he’ll say they’re fine with it!!!! which is great!!! but until then don’t assume bc he’s masc that it’s okay#cr discourse ???? I don’t think it is but I’ll tag anyways#I’ve seen this SO MUCH esp in fanfic

rip eddie munson you would’ve loved ghost
#stranger things#eddie munson#ghost#ghost band#the band ghost#been getting into ghost and my brother seems to think they’re like. anti-christian#just because they’ve got the whole semi-ironic satanic thing going on#and the main thing#which is that they use an UPSIDE-DOWN CROSS in their logo and art and such#he keeps comparing it to?? a swastika????#anyway it just reminded me of the unfounded stigma against d&d in stranger things#also!! our parents!! are christians!!! and both of them!!! are perfectly fine!!! with ghost!!!!!#especially my dad!!! we listen to ghost in the car together it’s great!!!!!#oh yeah also my brother doesn’t even believe in heaven or the bible. so. there’s that.#rant over i suppose

#thankfully everything went okay with the birthday party#of course mom and dad showed up pissed at each other#and my brother didn’t come at all even tho he said he would#I can’t say I’m surprised by either of them#I think what this year has shown me is that I’m okay if they’re not actively in my life the way I want#is it hard yeah#do I wish it could be different yes#but I also know that I’ll be just fine#regardless of which direction things go#anyways the whole point is my kid had a great birthday#he had a bunch of cousins and friends surrounding him and that’s what matters most to me

2024 reads / storygraph
How You Get The Girl
Contemporary romance
follows a basketball star who left the sport 8 years ago after an injury, who unexpectedly becomes the foster parents for her niece who she encourages to join the high school basketball team
and the team’s coach, who happens to have been a massive fan, and also needs a co-coach
they start to become friends, and when the latter reveals her insecurities about dating and relationships, the other offers to practice dating her so she can figure things out. but of course they start to fall for each other..
lesbian MC, questioning demisexual MC
#How You Get The Girl#anita kelly#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#I thought this was okay! kinda cheesy set up but also a lot genuine?#some really great well rounded characters and exploration of identity; careers/futures; fostering; depression/migranes;#the practice dating thing is silly as a set up but it wasn’t drawn out in a similarly ridiculous way -#they dealt with the complex feelings in a realistic way#in general I enjoyed her figuring out her demisexuality but it falls into that common and frustrating trope of acespec characters conflatin#aro and ace experiences and putting them all under ace. half of the stuff she talks about is romance and relationships and dating and it’s#discussed as being potentially separate things.#(other than her best friend saying maybe you like romance but not sex etc but he never says aro & it doesn't feel like she internalises it)#Obviously personal experience is complicated and not everyone can figure out the differences in their own feelings#but if you’re making the point to talk about asexuality; why not bring up aromanticism?#i get the impression that a lot of these authors don’t even consider it at all; their version of demisexuality encompasses both aro and ace#but they’re not fully conscious of that fact.#also I know I made that pissed off post about this thing the other day which yes was after reading this#BUT i’m not super mad about this book specifically as much as the trend. like it’s fine just….Oh Yay This Again. kind of thing.#also I read the audiobook and just now finding out her name is elle not el shocked me LMAO she should have the more butch version...#hey i also appreciate some calling-parents-by-first-name without it being a Thing#also this cover art is unsettling.

Some of you really need to start learning how to respect your therapists
#jade rambles#was scrolling through my dash (a mistake) and saw someone said they told their therapist they like tickling#which is really great and I’m so proud of you!#but of course I had to see a weird ass comment from someone claiming they want to tell theirs too#which is fine…#until they followed up with they’re always staring at their therapist cause she’s really pretty and always wears heels#eugh… she’s not a piece of meat she’s a woman doing her job idiot#I have yet to meet a straight male knismo who is normal and not a freak

You know what would be really funny, is if people came together to have an anti-crab day. A day where every user who joined prior to automattic’s acquisition logged off for 24 hours to show that yes, actually, older user retention is important and you should listen us just as much as new users
The users giveth, the users taketh away
#this isn’t about the sidebar btw I’ve already said I don’t mind the sidebar#I think it could be a better sidebar like the 2014 tumblr layout which was great#but it’s Fine (tm)#this is about live and the new post editor and the apparent avatar removal bs ‘experiment’#and it’s also about how these big overhauls keep being done meanwhile we can’t have like. a search function that works#or the queue reordering tools that already exist on mobile web applied to any other platform#you know. all the little stuff that’s comparatively easy to implement yet they ‘don’t have time’ for because they’re too busy#with these massive overhauls and ignoring all the asks that go to wip#also I don’t expect anyone to actually do this and I’m sure as hell not organizing anything cause that’s a lot of work lmao#but I think giving them money pre-emptivelt just showed they can do whatever they want and we’ll fall for it#taking away money would be more effective#idk I don’t think current staff are any better at running tumblr than yahoo was#they’re just better at the ‘we’re quirky and relatable just like you guys uwu’ bit#and a lot of us fell for it but I think the illusion is starting to lift#anyway idk it sucks here but all the other sites are either worse or empty so what can we do#(genuinely wtf can we do this nonsense is getting bad)#text#misc#shut up nerd#new layout stuff

If anyone knows good resources on how to socialize aggressive dogs (not puppies) towards strangers feel free to shoot them my way, obviously I’m doing my own research but I figure other people may have experience with similar situations.
#for context: Elliot (new dog) who is a very sweet baby boy towards me and my parents#is NOT being a sweet baby boy to everyone else.#we’re not sure quite what sets him off as when we first got him it seemed he actually really liked people#and wanted to be friends with everyone#but now he’s started barking and growling at basically everyone#even when they’re just standing there#which obviously. not great#he was fine at the vet so we think it might have something to do with him being territorial near our house?#good news though he’s fine with gaggles of kids being in the playground next to us#I assume he thinks they’re sheep

actually, because of that secret secret i just read, i’m going to post this thought before i forget about it, actually — for the last few days i’ve been turning over the idea of dan heng x reader where the reader, a chef or at least competent cook, joins the express and works as chef to save everybody from himeko’s… creative dinner plans (inspired by the recent event)… and there’s something about the effortless, easy confidence with which you navigate the kitchen which dan heng admires. it’s an art form of its own, really.
(plus, as i mentioned, everyone loves you because you’re there to step in and lend some guidance when himeko decides it’s her turn to cook…..)
#idk the domestic vibe is just on point#i WAS thinking that i have to give reader some trauma because like… come on. be serious here. we can’t have them be UNtraumatised#but… for the first time ever… i think i might not give them intense and horrific trauma?#maybe it’s the generous christmas spirit possessing me or something#but i feel like the reader being genuinely… fine is something the surrounding cast and especially dan heng could appreciate#because there’s no need to dwell in emotional baggage around them and it’s just very comforting#the reader does have some emotional struggles here of course — maybe something to do with their family? not a great relationship there?#there’s got to be a reason why they left their home to join the express#but i get the idea that they’re the kind of person who doesn’t dwell on hardship too much where they experience it#which doesn’t mean they’re 100% okay but they are pretty content with life most of the time#and again this easy-going-ness really helps dan heng wind down around them#plus cooking!#before reader joined i think the express crew had a cooking rota (now they do most of the cooking but sometimes someone else takes the helm#(stelle not included because she would unironically place a bin bag on the table and tell everyone to ‘eat up’)#(in fact this did happen once and is why she is no longer on the rota)#also! reader collecting recipes from every world they visit (especially from planets or people who are dwindling in number/ at risk)!#as a way of not only learning but also preserving the memories and cultural identities of different groups#reader asking dan heng to show them how to use & put these recipes in the data bank!#dan heng initially asking them how they made this one dish… and this spirals into routinely midnight cooking sessions#reader falling asleep in the archive/ dh’s room while organising their recipes after one such midnight cooking session#etc etc#i need to sleep now goodnight#r.ambling in the tags#dan heng x reader

Still thinking about the conversation I had with my roommate’s bf like two weeks ago where he said he was scared of furries but also didn’t even know enough about furries to know they were called furries I had to figure out wtf he was talking about. The urge to become a full blown furry now. Despite having all the makings of a furry I for some reason have never ended up enthusiastically becoming one despite my best efforts. Well. With spite as my motivator here we are. Where are the furry artists, I’m commissioning both my tentative ideas for my fursonas. I’m inviting all my friends who are furries over and we’re gonna work on making fursuits. I will also make this a hostile living situation for you AND I will get the added bonus of doing fun furry stuff
#during the same conversation he very heavily insinuated he thought I was a cringey weirdo in the most derogatory sense#by making fun of most of my hobbies and calling ppl who liked them cringey weirdos#but then going ‘oh! oh no! I don’t mean you though you’re fine you’re like Normal 😀’#so. you know.#anyways last night I walked in the door from work#and the entire apartment smelled like weed and there was a dog barking at me and he was watching tv SO loud#🙃🙃🙃 sensory overload immediately in main part of apartment so I hid in bedroom all night#I’m also irritated cuz I’ve had convos with my roommate about weed FOREVER ago#literally my one ask was if he was gonna smoke he do it outside so the apartment doesn’t smell like it#idc if you smoke and you are free to do edibles/dabs/whatever inside just pls don’t smoke joints#I hate the smell and it’s bad for the animals#so why is it 🙃🙃🙃 all of a sudden happening again as this guy moves in 🙃🙃🙃#anyways about to become a revenge furry and also suuuuuper fucking cringey just to bother/embarrass him#esp cuz he said he wants to have friends over all the time which I’m also FUDJDJSJSKSK about#but sure! invite friends over!#I’m gonna sit in the living room with my giant easel and draw furries and listen loudly to vocaloid while they’re here 🥰#I’m gonna have a great time! you won’t tho lmao#kaz rambles

another fact about millie: worst hostage in the entire world because she is insufferable about it. the minute she knows you Need her for something, she is going to start pushing what she’s allowed to do and say. girl who thrives with a gun to her head because she knows you need her alive and can’t pull the trigger.
#she is sooo annoying about it. she is.#ESPECIALLY if she’s being held hostage to get someone to cooperate who she knows will be Mad if she’s hurt during the fact#she is egging you on she wants you to leave a mark on her so bad so that there’s an excuse later for you to get eviscerated later#she has great self-preservation skills it’s just that they turn off all the way the minute she knows she’s self-preserved enough#millie has one conversation during the apocalypsw with lucifer and deduces that he has no interest in forcing sam’s hand for possession#OR in injuring her or dean (that badly. anyway.) because he knows sam likes them#and she spends the entire rest of the apocalypse being such a little brat about it whenever they’re held hostage by someone who wants to#hand them over to lucifer#she’s a good negotiator almost exclusively when it comes to negotiating her own life and that’s it#spn oc#she doesn’t have to *like* lucifer to trust that if random demon number 7 kidnaps sam & her & dean to gift them to him that they’re going to#be fine and the demon is going to be very Not Fine.#she knows what he wants: ‘sam says yes when sam decides to say yes which he will so i don’t need to force it.’ so therefore she has wiggle#room allowed by the him not forcing it bit of that statement#which is more wiggle room than heaven allows and why she likes dealing with lucifer better vis a vis the apocalypse#something that. changes. when gabriel dies. but for reasons unrelated to all of this.#she just. she hadn’t considered that gabriel wasn’t someone who could get in lucifer’s way and live. she didn’t consider that. because it#seemed obvious. at the time. when she and her brothers have been annoying the shit out of him for *months* and lucifer *hasn’t done#anything* to them. that gabriel must be like that too.#she failed to realize that gabriel isn’t like them. he’s actually a threat. the fact that he won’t stand down is what gets him killed.#………..i think she hates gabriel more for that than she ever does lucifer. that he didn’t run. stupid stupid thing he did there. to her.#sorry we got off topic here. point is that she is sooo annoying about being kidnapped and it makes her terrible for kidnapping and everyone#who does it has to deal with her

Sunlight sensitivity anon here - just noticed you did mention the sunlight sensitivity in your latest artpiece. My fucking bad.
oh no problem!! actually gives me a lot to think about since the sun is such an issue for them post canon but I’m a firm believer that shri’iia is still 😤 gonna try to find a way for him to walk back to the sun again even if she can’t tolerate it as much. that’s one of the things she promised him and she is very much intending to deliver..!!!
#which makes for an interesting dynamic to me bc I think astarion is more like - it’ll be great if they find some cute#but ultimately he’s fine with not being able to walk under the sun as long as they’re staying n living together. all that.#but shri’iia is very intent and it’s a genuine promise from her that she wants to fulfill to the point that she gets a#but bull-headed about it. I think it’s still difficult for her to understand that someone would want her just as she is and not bc she can#do all sorts of thing for them even with the post game dynamic so. there’s future conflict of astarion wanting her as just herself vs#shri’iia trying to fulfill whatever he wants so he can stay by her side all the time forever. she has to learn that she doesn’t have to be#like that all the time like she doesn’t have to justify her existence to someone n I think she IS learning how to understand that#but it’s such a deeply rooted sentiment so it’ll take a while for her to unlearn it. future hag romance conflict 😌🤭#they’re a

does anyone else feel like they need to Make Fan Content That Is Also Good And Interesting in order to make/keep internet friends so as to be worth other people’s time
#the internet is one big networking tool#genuine question because like. i know it’s unhealthy but i also feel like that’s kind of the economy created by the internet#i’m not advocating it and i’m also not trying to be self-deprecating#i was never great at art and i haven’t posted anything i’ve written in like 5 years#like for example. i put off making a dragon age blog for a while bc i don’t Do anything. even now that ive made it i feel like i don’t have#a leg to stand on to talk to my mutuals. we are always competing for attention on the internet#i’ve known a few people where like. i thought we were actual friends and not just fandom colleagues but i always felt like i had fo Prove I#Was Talented to keep them interested and like. again not healthy but i’m wondering how common that is#maybe that is just fandom colleague behavior and i misread the situation but uh#also to be clear i’m not trying to like. blame anyone or victimize myself#i’m mostly curious because i have seen people talk about how making friends on the internet is so much easier and i’m wondering#where that idea came from. bc i still think it’s hard. but i wonder if it’s easier if you’re one already posting Original And Interesting#Content. i mostly just make memes and meta at this point and it doesn’t get a lot of attention. which is fine#i’ve just found it markedly harder to meet people since i switched tacks#one of the reasons i burned out tbh. among other things. i’ve been picking writing up again but i don’t post anymore#honestly realizing this has probably bitten me in the ass before bc i’ve had friends who share stuff they’re proud of and i don’t jump on it#bc to me i’m trying to be like ‘you don’t have to prove yourself to me. i like you as a person’#but probably comes off like ‘i don’t care about the things you care about’. hm#mine
