so true, i've been reading every day since i started the series and i'm so close to day 100 (today's day 81 😭) but nowhere near done

love that it's not ending too though soo :>

of all the special interests that i have why did the one that predominately occupies my mind have to be this middle-grade series that never ends. ever.

#like i love it #but i hate it #kotlc #keeper of the lost cities #why can't u end but also just like don't #give me an epilogue like the cruel prince series #and i'll be okay with it

look, not to be a hater but the whole ekko/jinx alternate universe situation only proves that jinx was only ever loved entirely and completely by silco, that's kinda the point of how tragic jinx really is as a character,

vi either only sees her little sister out of guilt/sense of duty mixed with a desperate need to come back to something or as consequences to her own actions(taking away agency from jinx in the process);

ekko sees her through the eyes of an idealist which is exactly what he is and that's not bad by itself, but it makes her either A Problem or Someone That Needs Saving, that's what's going on in his head after that AU he transported to. he's comparing jinx to powder and he likes powder much better, so he wants jinx to be powder or to reignite the powder in her - basically, he thinks how vi used to think;

isha is a complicated matter because she did show kindness and affection towards jinx that wasn't equal to anyone else's, it was pure and idolizing, she loved what she knew of jinx.

the people of zaun don't love her, not by a long shot. she became a symbol to some(as we can notice in the reunion by vander's statue) and overall the assumption that she would get involved more after her attack and silco's death is a fair one; that doesn't mean they like her,

sevika maintains a connection to jinx through grief and a sense of helplessness along with familiarity, silco's death affected jinx's psyche but it also affected sevika's dream of zaun, they feel left behind by him;

vander... well, he only got to see powder and warwick quite literally just had the memories,

the ONLY character we see that meets her as powder and stays with her as jinx is silco; yes, he isn't a good guy and he does cause the whole separation, he sharpened her edges to make her into a weapon, he lied to her and manipulated her at times, none of these things exclude the fact he does love her so strongly, with zero conditions.

she fucks up in missions, she does as she pleases around zaun, she kills their people, she stabs him in the eye, has psychotic episodes and breakdowns, she kidnaps him, ties him down, SHOOTS HIM, she doubts him and his love, keeps running after the past when he's done everything to strengthen her and she was, at a point, the only thing keeping him from his dream of an independent zaun - none of these perceived sins and flaws made him wish for anyone other than her, as she is.

all silco wanted was to keep her, while everyone else either wants another version of her or none at all. that's the tragic part, even if she suddenly decided to be good, she would feel like a burden for not being entirely like people want her to be.

#sorry not sorry but there's no happy ending here #loving someone without accepting how they've changed(for better or worst) isn't loving at all. it's cruel even.#also after the attack on the council vi treats her like a mistake she has to get rid of???? and that was vile #i simply can't forget that #yes i'm biased cause i dont like ekko and i ship jilco. this is literally the Why Im Biased About This Piece Of Media Essay website #so maybe chill idk #before anyone says it #loving doesn't mean condoning. but you gotta at least acknowledge their flawed personality. who they are instead of who they could've been.#yes u can hope for change but jinx isn't a mask powder keeps. she's violent and highly insecure and apathetic. she's needy and childish.#she doesn't care for whatever is happening to zaun or piltover. there's no difference for her they're all fleshbags that could hurt her.#at her core she won't suddenly start giving a shit to people. that will never happen. and she won't look up to someone 'good'#or ever stop being so high maintenance so needy and possessive. trauma won't ever just puff outta existence.#god these tags are so long #imma shut up now #arcane spoilers #character study (?)#arcane season 2 #this is my opinion #if you don't like you can just disagree on ur mind and ignore me #make ur own post or smth idk #arcane jinx #arcane powder

Happy Valentines, Akira. Happy Valentines, Asshole.

If you can’t read what Akechi’s secondary inner-dialogue says cause I obscured it too much behind his regular dialogue, here’s a transcription in panel order: Hello, you fucking- Ah- Hello, Akira! Fuck off, why should I tell you- Just a soda- there’s a new flavor.

I don’t want your shitty gift. Oh- haha! You’re so sweet.

I hope I choke. They’re lovely, thank you.

Like hell. Likewise. There’s no way it’s just a coincidence. Still though, it’s a funny coincidence.

#p5 #akeshu #akechi goro #kurusu akira #wow- me?? posting a valentines comic... actually on?? valentines????? wack. absolutely wack #it's a short one! I purposefully tried to keep it short. it was a challenge and it still ended up being 3 pages. but i blame my canvas size #also in case u can't see what akira is holding out to akechi: theyre chocolate covered strawberries on sticks!#i saw them irl and was like oh god i want those. i am going to project that feeling on my favorite characters so help me god #and now! here we are! but my shitty-ass coloring & line quality make it hard to discern them so. sorry about that lmaooooo #ANYWAY i don't do enough post-maruki stuff so. i made this one a little bittersweet. :)#why did i put akechi's scarf in a bow? honestly i dont know! i think i saw some art a while ago that did that too and i thought it was cute #well. plus i guess there's the symbolism of 'akechi being alive and reciprocating your feelings (however involuntarily) IS a gift' part #hence that hes wrapped up in a bow. like a present. :)#also god. the first panel is supposed to be akechi's reflection in a vending machine window. I could NOT get it to look right #so for reference!!! just so you guys understand!!!!!! thats what that panel is supposed to be!!! he is NOT in fact a ghost. (sigh)#hope you enjoyed and had a lovely valentines!! for my part i have eaten nothing but sweets today and hoo boy will that have been a mistake #ALSO in terms of the audience-participation comic...hopefully coming soon. if i can ever gain the will to draw it.#but at least tumblr has polls now so i can do the audience-choose-y bit without needing to use a separate website! so thats good i guess #anyway anyway anway thanks for listening to me ramble if you made it this far! have a lovely rest of your day and hopefully see u again soon

I occasionally wish to reach out to old friends/acquaintances I haven't spoken to since high school/some other even earlier time in my life, but I have SOOO little social energy even for required tasks (like making dr phone calls or etc), I never have any leftover for extra ones, and it would be very odd to message someone I haven't spoken to in like 5 years out of the blue but then take 4 entire months to respond back lol.. My natural curiosity with nostalgia/collecting details of the past/etc. (literally if I were born a little earlier I would definitely do scrapbooking or something lol) is very strong, but, alas, not strong enough to beat out the Social Issues Demons apparently

#facebook always does that 'here's a post from this day 8 years ago' thing. and I see old comments interacting #with people and it's so like.. OOOOO~~ where are they now?? what's going on? how much have they changed as people?#how much are they the same? this is fascinating. i should contact them!!' but then it's like... take that to it's logical conclusion though #you would contact them and then IF they even responded it would take you 80 years to respond and then they would #think there was something wrong or that you were trying to be insulting or something. To contact anyone I need to include an 85 page #disclaimer of all of my social issues & mental illness things. 'If i take 3 weeks to reply I promise it has nothing to do with u' etc lol #THIS is why more people need to be into phone calls/voice calls/some form of audio real time communication/etc.#I think one of the main things that's hard about messaging through text for me is it's so unscheduled and open ended #(plus it takes forever if you're talking about anything in detail and gets very long very quickly)#because like you can send a message and then just get a reply whenever. and then you're expected to reply back whenever #so it's like you never know when the response will come or when a new obligation to reply can come up? so it's like this sudden thing with #no outline?? if that makes sense. whereas a phone call is very like 'hello let's schedule a call from 10am - 2pm on thursday'. And you know #EXACTLY when the interaction will start and EXACTLY when it will end and you can plan around it in your schedule easily.#I have the reverse thing of a lot of people (how people don't pick up phone calls/hate calls/only text)#I would literally talk on the phone with a stranger. I would have a discord voice chat with someone I barely know.#if someone I hardly even remember from elementary school asked to have a voice call with me out of nowhere I would do it.#but if a stranger MESSAGED me?? or someone I barely know sent me a TEXT or something?? I will never reply probably #It's just too vague and weird. and you can't read voice tone over text. and the interaction could last forever with no clear end #point and etc. etc. But a call is like. set. established. clear boundaries. you can read the flow of conversation better. rapport. etc. etc #I get that I guess people feel more anonymous or distanced over text?? but you can have fake phone numbers on the computer. or do like disc #rd calls. or zoom without a camera or etc. etc. Also the distance that's present in text is BAD distance because it just means that tone is #not conveyed properly and you will never truly get a sense of the person's conversational vibe or mannerisms or how well you really click.#ANYWAY ghgjh...... I'm so so so interested in concepts of like.. How did that one kid I used to talk to in elementary school #but then they moved away in 5th grade - how did they end up? what are they doing now?? etc. etc. Like despite the severe social anhedonia #and general lack of connection with others I'm just really fascinated in like.. idk. the human development of it all and like #the concept of how we're actually a million different people through the course of our lives ever evolving in different iterations and etc.#PLUS again. i love nostalgia. sometimes old peple you know might remember a shared memory or can tell you about something you forgot #or etc. like it's SUCH A COOL THING in CONCEPT but I am too socially inept generally speaking lol. which people I still talk to today are #familiar with my 'phone call once every few months' communication style. but strangers would just be like... wtf. And I don't blame them #Sure I literally cannot change the physical health + brain issues i have - but also I know enough to not put others through that lol

7am, eating cold leftover teriyaki stir-fry for breakfast and crying over blorbos

#normal Saturday morning behavior #redacted spoilers #redacted audio #redacted sam #Seven.txt #rp audio stuff #well. crying over one singular blorbo in particular. Sam's still got me in an emotional chokehold #and i'm too sad to even make a stupid little joke abt how i wouldn't mind if it was a physical one too. ayeee *insert sad eyebrow wiggle*#no but seriously. i have so many feelings abt him and i can't even say it all bc some of it isn't public info yet #eh fuck it i'll just draft this until the audio goes public and then i'll post it once it's no longer Exclusive Info #bc i dont wanna leak Early Access stuff but i have to get this out of my system rn and the new audio is part of what sparked these thoughts #which is funny bc i. literally haven't even listened to it yet. i'm not Ready 😭#where's that tiktok screenshot that's like. 'hyperfixation so bad that i can't even engage with the source material' bc that's me rn #like bro Sam only won the poll like. 2 or 3 days ago and Eric is Already dropping a new Sam audio?? hello? Mr. Redacted i wasn't prepared #anyways i was spoiling myself by perusing the comments last night trying to get a feel for if it's gonna be more angst or comfort #and i saw a comment that absolutely shattered me. and it reignited all my sad thoughts about Sam's eventual. uh. y'know. death.#apparently they plant a tree together or smthn in the new audio (which already has me & my beloved 10y/o orange tree feeling some kinda way #but to the individual in the comments who brought to all our minds the image of Sam sitting beneath that tree in 30 or so years time #when he's decided that he's ready to die and sits out there waiting for the sun to rise..................... 🥲#i'm gonna need u to compensate me for all of that unexpected emotional damage /j /nm #i'm Still not over what he told Darlin' while they had their talk about the future up on his roof together. that audio killed me #then yesterday i was listening to my Sam & Darlin' playlist while cleaning. and Malibu Nights by LANY came on. which i always skip bc Sad #but i let it play and just started crying. standing in the middle of the room all disheveled and holding a broom. as one does.#iirc that song is one that Eric himself said is applicable to Sam which is why/how i found it and put it on the playlist. and god. g o d #hm. i hope that wasn't Patreon exclusive info. i can't remember if it was a public post where he said that or not. hope it's okay to share #but if we can take that song as like. unofficial canon for Sam then that also confirms my idea that he used to drink to cope #which makes the opening lines of Fix What You Didn't Break by Nate Smith even more applicable. i should go edit that post actually #anyways i'm just. feeling a lot. and i love Sam very much and i don't want him to die. but i want him to do what he wants at the same time #Alexis took so fucking much from him. he deserves to live - and end - his life on his own terms. ... i think i need to go write something #*casually fishes this post out of the drafts 3 and a half days later* hi so uh. i wrote a 4k oneshot :) and will hopefully post it tomorrow

does anyone know if we have to roll that rock up the hill again tomorrow

#so to recap what we all know if we're following the Angela is Sickly series #i can't eat tree nuts. i can't eat trail mix that has come in contact with tree nuts. i am uneasy about eating anything that has been in a #facility with tree nuts because i have had allergic reactions just as severe from cross-contamination as i have had from straight up #eating walnuts. the one exception to this rule is pistachios because i have yet to have an issue with them #i don't eat pecans anymore because i had a reaction. almonds are on thin ice i don't really eat them #also. also i dislike nuts. it's not a hard rule but i don't like them at all. i am not a picky eater they just happen to be one of the #foods i dislike they're a bad texture and they taste like wood. except for the beautiful pistachio #and then we have the alpha gal allergy so. it's not Nearly as severe in terms of life-threatening anaphylaptic response but #the trade-off is a week-long world ending stomachache. which is extremely not fun and also could at any point randomly turn into #a more severe allergy so i. sort of don't fuck with it. there are exceptions that i regret every time because ouch. no red meat.#similarly. we respond not too great to dairy. can't have a lot. can't be fixed by lactaid pills or anything because it's not lactose #intolerance it's an allergy. so. no tree nuts except pistachios. no red meat. light dairy. i am twenty pounds underweight.#my doctor told me to keep red meat in my diet if i couldn't maintain my weight and uh. Bad News i can't maintain weight but also it's a #massive trigger so what the fuck do i do here. to be allergic to some of the most caloric and fatty foods out there #tried to start up boosts and i will continue doing so but im getting stomachaches from them too. like the fuck do u do #im eating eggs and avocado and olive oil and peanut butter etc and im still losing weight. i don't ever have an appetite #gets to a point where im like Well we might end up in a fucking hospital because i keep losing weight and idk why #tests aren't showing anything other than alpha gal and minor inflammation we don't have a reason for #tomorrow i will fucking have egg and avocado and olive oil and butter and a boost and an antispasmodic and water and #i will get a stomachache again and be tired again. Onward!#i would feel so much better if i could gain weight and i can't. what do. im so tired all the time <3 15.8bmi <3

sorry queen but a cheater is a cheater is a cheater and that's not a label i easily let go of

#obviously extenuating circumstances #but i don't mean i was traumatized and repressing my feelings blah blah staying with the safe choice #so u were an asshole.#so u obviously don't care enough about the person ur dating to stop for a second and actually think about the consequences of ur actions #and the fact that she didn't even acknowledge what she did #and just happily ended up with her man and her ex APOLOGIZED?#pick up ur head king ur crown is falling #and yes this is a major reason why i refuse to even support ronance #like it's my personal opinion and i'm not stopping people from shipping who they like #but i also want to get my thoughts out there scream into the void or whatever #as a lesbian from a small town i'll tell u i would certainly not date a girl who cheated on my best friend #so don't pull that argument on me #it just feels evil to me #like can't steve have ONE thing like ONE person in his corner #why make him constantly apologize and have to give way when he's done like. nothing wrong #first of all he was reclaiming queer duh #and he was right to be pissed #i get that it's two attractive girls and one is canonically gay #but ur reaching

This year's Grammys really has some of yall (still) in a tizzy. Like you would think Beyonce killed their mother when all she did was win a big award!

#some of yall are also reaching bc how do you see billie crying over an award and go #“oh my little meow meow she's been hurt” like she isn't a grown ass woman whereas bey will have the same reaction #or just show normal levels of disappointment (bc she's human) and yall talk about she's either being dramatic #denying her work ethic saying she's jealous or that she'll harm someone for her next win #like yall really enjoy policing black women over their emotions don't you! these people think bey is the boogeyman!#“she/her husband paid for the award!” she's nearly a billionaire and u think they'd waste their money on a trophy?#other artist like ts are just as up there financially so does she pay for her awards too? bc it makes no sense #and antiblackness really got yall talking out of your ass by trying to deny bey talent like she hasn't been around since #before you were born like don't play with her just bc you can't take a loss #and imma be honest...to me personally even if bey wasn't a contender i don't think billie was gonna get it regardless #like between sabrina chappell and charli with the theme being for innovation...billie girl im sorry but that's just me personally!#it also be hurting my spirit when other black people be inciting these anti black conversations #some on some “oh she's a billionaire” type shit. okay she's also a black woman and that at the end of the day is what people love to focus #on whether they know it or not: even if she is apart of the wealthy elite that doesn't give people the right to be misogynistic &/or racist #and frankly it makes anything they say less valid 🤷🏾‍♀️#and even if cc wasn't a personal fave to YOU doesn't negate how influential it was. it's like that thing where people are sharing recipes #and someone goes “well I don't like/can't have this” all snooty and trying to diss the cooks work just bc of something didn't go their way #that's how some of yall sound! even more so when you try to deny the pivotal impact & influence it has on/within the black community #“why are u making it about race!?” well aside from that being the point of the album itself a lot of yall disguise your antiblackness and #act like people don't see it but then turn around & get mad when u get called out #there's nothing wrong with “i personally didn't enjoy cc but i can still praise it” or “im sad that billie lost” and such #u can feel sad about your fave not winning!#but where things start taking a turn is when people try to humble/discredit beyonce & the effort she puts into things #bc ain't no way you even just looked at bey and thought “yeah she def just threw something together”#anyways #beyonce #cowboy carter #grammys 2025

I wish all jujutsu kaisen fans a very media literacy and manga reread

#Shut up shut up the ending makes sense just take ur time to read and ponder it doesn't have to be explicitly held held explained to u #I won't insist that my every interpretation is 100% correct but thr beauty of story is it can mean what it needs to for readers as individua #I'm so content with the way that it ended bc yeah I have read and spun theories and reread it until it made sense #I didn't understand much the first time it always takes several reads and translations notes help a lot too #But there IS a lot of information there if you're open to finding it #Gege is rly thr best it's so unfortunate #Jujutsu kaisen fans can't read #Like are we even fans if we talk shit on the author?? I don't think you are but why read just to hate it??#Jjk ending #Jjk manga #Gege did nothing wrong #Rant #Vent #jujutsu kaisen #jjk fandom #There are things I'd never understand on my own but lovely readers do research and share what they learn about historical culture language #Context etc and idk I also get that it's hard to sort through. The majority of takes are easily debunked. But if you just. If you just read #The manga several times.... It gets better and more intense and sensical and emotional every time...#Sigh #Sorry I'm sleep deprived and sick of all the gege hate on my fyp!#It never ends I never interact I hide those posts but they still show #Which means I follow a closet hater or the algorithm sucks ass #Probably #Gege akutami #I owe u my life #This last year has been rly hard and idk how I would've survived without your work #I hope u have a good rest and recreational period for as long as u want to

as a bona fide vaxleth lover i am more confused than ever about how they are portrayed on the animated series i'm not gonna lie 😭

#not that different is bad like it doesn't affect or 'ruin' the actual source material #i just legitimately do not understand some of their choices here #there's stuff i really like ofc but u know. i've written multiple long analyses about conflict in their relationship #and in previous seasons it seemed to me like they were just smoothing out those sharp edges which bummed me out ngl #(for one there was a line at the end of s1 where kiki directly contradicted her campaign self in favor of No Conflict that i was feeling #unsatisfied with. and s2 didn't contend with rq as a sticking point for keyleth really at all)#and like to be honest my distaste for that is biased by like fandom drama of years past and people shitting on them for that exact stuff #so for me it kinda felt like an updated and palatable version that appealed to the group of people that made me feel bad for liking them #which is again like a strong personal bias lol but u know it also is just. a really important story to me that i love #but this season it's like they went no no. they do actually need to fight that was a big thing. hmmmm what about #AH YES. let's reverse their povs about their relationship completely.#have not finished ep3 yet but 10 min in i'm just like HUH?#again this doesn't rly matter and the show remains an enjoyable adaptation it's just truly bizzare to me 😭 how did this choice get made #it speaks #lovm spoilers #sorry I'm not done yet actually because the specific conflict about happiness in the present being or not being worth sorrow later #is the VERY CORE OF BOTH OF THOSE CHARACTERS and to switch which one feels which is way more than weird for the romance it's weird for like #what each of their whole individual deal is. that's why i'm so ??????????????#gah. i truly don't want to complain too badly #(and tbh the eps simply don't have enough runtime for vax to be as completely-falling-apart as he actually was and the role of #depression and trauma and self-loathing in that vs like. a more easily telegraphed supernatural boogeyman #-which if they slowed the pace down more might fit in but the scale of the story is so grand that they can't so like i begrudingly get it.#but still absolutely wild for the solution to be: do away with their actual arguments about divinity or keyleth's insecurity about #outliving all of vox machina. oh btw we are giving the vision she had of that to vax as a gift from rq or whatever #so he can be inscure about it instead. because he's fate touched or smthn. and that's too abstract for us to explore here so let's just #give him ominous visions.)#the more i have typed the saltier i have gotten i'm sorry it's just WILD TO MEEEE

GOOD NEWS the expensive pair of jeans i impulse-bought last week (bc my current jeans make me actually angry to wear) don't fit me, so i can return them and get a refund 😊

#on the one hand YES it would be great to have a pair of jeans that fit me #on the other hand i regretted that purchase financially as soon as i made it and i will be v glad to get the money back #WHY DOES NOWHERE MAKE JEANS THAT FIT ME #they're always just too baggy in places and too tight other places like they're usually too big and too small at the same time #and in that situation u can't just get it in a different size bc then it would still fit weird #these ones fit really well around my hips but were just weirdly baggy in the crotch? WHY #also they're always ALWAYS way too long on me but that's ok i can alter the hem length really easily #i guess the real answer would be to learn how to tailor the tops of jeans to fit me properly #i have been seeing some vids recently on pinterest on how to do that and i'll definitely look into it more #because it PISSES ME OFF TO NO END #the current pair i have are just. SO baggy and not in a cute way like they are definitely too big for me #and i guess i have lost a little weight since i bought them but i think probably they never fit right #and i was just so desperate that i settled #also i kind of made a loose resolution that i would only buy second hand or sustainable clothes from now on #and the vast majority of sustainable jeans do not come in sizes big enough for me #it fucking sucks but fast fashion brands really are the only places you can buy decent plus sized jeans #no 'good quality' denim brands eg levi or wrangler make plus sized jeans and you for sure can't find any second-hand #that's why this pair was expensive (bc the brand is sustainable)#i've ordered from them before and i remember having the same problem and having to return everything so i really should have known better #sustainably making clothes that don't fucking fit me lmao #🧃

they just didn't have to write him as "a great philanthropist"; "a generous benefactor of the empire bay planetarium"; "frequent officer of the empire bay press guild"; "a frequent target of political slander and false arrest because of generosity towards the press"

and at the same time write him as the first of the others to organize drug trafficking; a man who tried to kill all his competitors; "a shady bastard, even for guys in this business"; "ruthless modernizer"; a man who secretly views his close friend as a liability; "the man who killed his own boss" to take his place

"few will moan moretti's passing" from the lost heaven's newspapers and there's nothing like that in the cut-out news reports about carlo's death
