On one hand, Young Justice is kind of neglected by the actual superheroes that should be looking out for them in a lot of crucial ways and very much failed by the adults around them

But on the other hand Red Tornado straight up hosts a parent-teacher conference where their respective legal guardians all show up, barring Batman who’s in traffic so Nightwing fills in instead because Robin’s dad does not know he’s a vigilante which is objectively hilarious

#Superboy does not have a name and his ass is constantly getting groomed like Clark please take a more active role in his life #And all of these guys need a healthy interaction with their respective legacies that does not involve heroing #Take them out for lunch! Play a video game with them! Let them be a kid around you without getting criticized!#Red Tornado had barely reconnected with his own humanity and he’s taken a more active role in being like they are safe happy and learning #compared to the people who literally are the reason they exist in the first place #and is the only one who seems to recognize their potential and ability as a team! and he wants others to know that!#and it’s kind of heartbreaking because the JLA should be paying attention to them and noticing how they succeed and instead just show up #at the worst possible time and take things out of context and criticize them and bestie I bet you they are a lot better of a hero #than *you* were at 14-16 because they actually are going out and making a difference and saving people #but the ones who should support them the most are barely there for them at all #someone give these kids healthy and appropriate emotional support I am begging you #yj #young just us #young justice #yj98 #bart allen #tim drake #kon el #conner kent #superboy #robin #dc impulse #cassie sandsmark #wonder girl #cissie king jones #arrowette #greta hayes #slobo dc #empress #anita fite

tarpit site.

#personal #delete later #for context a tweet i made in the middle of the night blew the fuck up and brought the attention of anime fans who've been #harassing and hassling me about my big factual blunder for an entire day straight #“ok i'll apologize” “bro it's not that serious.”#“you're right it's not that serious“ ”why won't you just admit that you're wrong and apologize!“#i'm not going crazy right. i feel like i'm getting manipulated into thinking i must've been wrong #it's crazy how twitter hate will trick you into believing saying something someone else disagrees with is a moral failing #sorry i haven't seen frieren i guess but what's it to you. i wasn't making a claim or statement #also because nobody has gotten this in the original post i wasn't talking about the quality of animation i'm talking about solid drawing #which is a very specific principle of animation. dandandan has really good solid drawing wherein all the characters are animated #with realistic and proportional 3d depth. newsflash but trigger doesn't prioritize solid drawing in their animation and that's fine #it's an aesthetic choice and has ties to production limits. none of this is a big deal. this is all so stupid lol #i've dealt with worse and more annoying weebs though it's fine i'll put on my clown nose twitter needs their stupid guy for the day #oh btw at the end of the day this doesn't matter. it'll be over by tomorrow. all that's happening is petty angry emotions.#so please don't involve yourself by jumping into the argument and prolonging this shit #i'm about to go on a date with tulli after being apart for a month this is the furtherest thing from my mind rn

as someone who has unknowingly been in a "mentally unstable femme/do anything for you butch" [i was the do anything for you butch] dynamic i have to say it did severe damage to me and my idea of self worth. i was walked on in horrendous ways. i was not treated like a human or a person with feelings. i was manipulated. i was sexually coerced to do things that no one should ask someone else to do. it has taken me the better part of a decade to recognize the damage this did to me, and it took a strong network of friends (and a particularly supportive and protective femme friend) to help me realize that i deserved to be treated like a person.

i am really tired of seeing butches and femmes alike endorse the idea this is uwucute. its not. its extremely damaging. butches, please find your self worth. recognize that you have needs too. femmes, respect that butches are people. saying mentally unstable femmes use service-oriented butches is downright wrong and disrespectful. i dont care if its a joke or memepost. im exhausted. i know there is a lot of loneliness in being butch and femme. but we don't need to be glorifying unhealthy relationship dynamics, even as a joke. you can get the dynamic you seek (dominance and control) from healthy individuals that respect your personhood. everyone in the community deserves better.

#this is all i have the energy to say for now #i have been in SEVERAL relationships where people that needed help used me instead.#and sometimes in terrible ways.#and i thought i had to tough it out or it was worth it because thats what love and devotion was about.#ITS NOT.#the moment you have to stifle your feelings comfort or self worth is the moment it becomes a problem #the moment we conflate manipulation due to emotional instability with NEGOTIATED manipulation is the moment we are disrepecting all involve #slug.txt

will theo ever be happy

Maybe in another life.

#theo #jack #confusing and alienating everyone who only followed me after i started drawing furries by referencing my old nonfurry character dynamics #but this got me thinking about theo's only happy endings and how they all involve jack...#who i'm not drawing right now. oops. sorry fella #oh theo... see what happens when you're separated from your emotional support tramp #you start committing crimes against nature and people get worried about you #real answer: probably not in amaranthine but who knows WE'RE NO WHERE NEAR FIGURING OUT AN ENDING HAHA #i could ramble for another thousand paragraphs about why he probably won't be happy in amaranthine but to summarize:#1. trying to do crimes against nature for insane reasons #2. only “positive” relationship is an evil parasite who is using and manipulating him #3. only person he talks to about his problems is a dead body #4. no jack to keep him stable... so far. i want to add him to the story but that's a long way off #but if you want to make A version of theo happy you can play our game Wishbone (once it's done...). he's in it because of course he is.#my draws #asks

Halloween dress-up, let's go!!!

Assignment: "Dress up as ghosts".

Status: Yes. They're ghosts. Just really different types of ghosts

#fanart #danny fenton/m'gann m'orzz #spearmint ship #i love them so much #yes M'gann is a White Lady #and before anyone hypothetically comes at me saying that White Lady should be all just white/have black hair but i have my reasons #in universe is: they decided to dress up “normal way” and it turned out that M'gann as a Martian was allergic to most make-up products #and in the end she threw some flour on her face and called it a day #and the meta reason is: I haven't drew Megan enough to believe she'd be recognizable with different hairstyle and without her color pallette #anyway #i love White Lady ghosts #like i can't even express how much i love them like aesthetically #and from the backstory standpoint #they're just neat imo #they're also really popular in Poland (my beloved motherland *patriotic sounding eagle noise because eagle is National Emblem of Poland :D*)#like you can trip on them #nearly every caslte has either White Lady or some cursed knight or *both*#and we have a lot of castles (though not a lot with original decor because fucking Red Army; sorry it makes me emotional)#but like to emphasise how many White Ladies we have #my uni's main building has one and it's not even a castle anymore #her story is really cool too #it involves Iron Maiden patricide and in some versions a lovestory #it also won't derail this post but I'd love to share it if someone is interested #halloween #happy halloween #dpxdc #dp x dc #dc x dp #wandixx arts #have a nice day dear stranger who got to this part

the chaotic imagin meets the lawful sovereign

it's been 2 years since i got into tokusatsu and to celebrate this year i wanted to draw my first favorite and my favorite from the past year together!

rita probably can't put ryuta on trial since he's a minor but they can at least punish him via snowman:

#kamen rider #super sentai #kamen rider den-o #kr den-o #ohsama sentai kingohger #kingohger #ryutaros #rita kanisuka #my art #thank you tokusatsu for being with me for another year and always making me feel better whenever i felt down #when i was working on this i was also watching the 2023 toku music live show #and i couldn't help but get a lil emotional by the end of it #i wuv you toku and all the cast and crew involved sm

Thinking of the Nie disciple that told Nie Mingjue it was Meng Yao who stayed behind to clean up corpses on the battlefield today.

Nie Mingjue didn't just randomly stumble upon poor lil meowyao eating bread in the novel, he was already looking for him to thank and reward him for his work.

That's what makes it so fun that nieyao's first conflict will end up being about someone else taking credit for Meng Yao's work.

And I'm sure that Nie Mingjue's actual opinions on plagiarism are a lot more nuanced, all we really get from him in this scene is "well you shouldn't kill someone over it!" which leaves a lot of room for what punishments he thinks are appropiate. But I bet that it isn't occuring to him in this moment that the only reason he knows Meng Yao at all, the only reason he got such a capable deputy, is that he noticed someone was taking care of the dead and cared enough to want to know their name. And then the Nie disciples didn't lie to him. The disciple he asked could have said "it was me, Zongzhu" to rise in the ranks himself, but he didn't. He went and asked others, who all also could have taken the credit, but they didn't. Someone saw Meng Yao working and decided to be honest about it and that simple decision is the catalyst for Meng Yao becoming Nie Mingjue's deputy.

Meng Yao can't just work hard to get results, others have to acknowledge that work. If they don't, it's as if he didn't do anything at all.

#i'm very proud of the phrase poor lil meowyao. i'm sure i'm not the first one to come up with it but i'm proud nonetheless.#mdzs #mdzs meta #nie mingjue #meng yao #anyway this isn't a nmj bashing post i think 'ok that's bad but don't do MURDER' is overall a pretty reasonable reaction #but the emotional disconnect is fun to ruminate on. I bet meng yao IS thinking about that moment while coming up with his fake-suicide plan #anyway i always laugh a litle whenever anyone wonder if meng yao looking a bit pitiful was all some master stategy to get nmj to like him #because like... no. no that would be a stupid plan and also involved way too many factors he couldn't control.#and also!! he was already doing something else to try and get nmj's attention. all of that fucking work!!#if you plan on getting nmj– guy famous for valuing merit and hard honest work– to like you what is more useful:#looking a bit like a sad little wet cat in case he comes across you? or. Working really hard and being more useful than everyone else?#ding ding ding it's the latter.#nmj is ALSO a bit weak for someone looking like a kitten left in the rain but that's not well-known at all and meng yao didn't know him yet #anyway the fact that that is his plan does mean he's very aware how much it hinges on other people not just lying and saying they did it.#i wonder what networking efforts lil heijan meng yao was doing. trying to make friends with all the other disciples.#walking the tightrope of being accomodating but not a doormat so people see you as someone to rely on rather than take advantage of.#as much as we know not everyone in the nie is as righteous as nmj it does seem like there is a culture of taking pride in your own work.#even the cultivators who bully him in the novel just seem think it's funny he's working so hard.#using someone else's actions to prop yourself up is kinda like admiting they're better than you. a wound to their pride if nothing else.

its so funny that all minute—the guy who once upon a time hoped to redeem zam—'s team has accomplished is getting him to consider giving up his remaining honor in order to match the level they're playing on ?

#m #lifesteal #i can't stop thinking about minute&co dismissing the argument about how they've encouraged players #to ban themselves and thus contradicted their own stated goal #the way 'peaceful ending' warped into 'it doesn't matter what we do so long as we can flip a switch at the end' but what the fuck happens #in a scenario where you unban everyone who you've pissed off ? are they happy? is that peace? and you won't even defend the choice!#what the fuck is happening here!#you laugh at zam for saying he's won but you won't have the argument that you know you'd lose ^_^#none of this is angry in tone i'm having fun. thisis my bread and butter. i'm happy lifesteal is weird and tense again #enjoying that it's looped this far around into the ACTIVE dismissal of rp-logic where zam&co are having to say 'okay then #we'll win This game too!'#them acting dismayed that mapicc wouldn't walk into that obsidian box. like oh my god #and it's so different from the weird tenseness of s4 it's something different entirely. new meta conflicts just for me !????#we'll see how it all ends.... they might make me mad again but we'll cross that bridge #it's so different from the Vitalasy Incident even though both involve people functioning in opposition to lifesteal's 'storytelling rules'#for vi it was because of his emotional investment. it manifested in nothing but endless 'character-level' debate in the lead up and #plenty of emotional roleplay from vitalasy in the aftermath #vi's primary effect on season 4 through the wormhole was to render lifesteal's gameplay obsolete #pb&j's primary effect is instead to focus intently on Winning that game while everything else falls by the wayside

thinking abt luffy, and how he grew up so poor that if he wanted to have a decent meal he had to go into the forest and fight big, dangerous animals. but at least he was strong enough to be able to fight, while there were people that lived close to him that had to live amongst the trash, hoping to find scraps they could sell so they could eat once during the day.

thinking abt how luffy values food so much, how he always eats as much as he physically can. how he values the people that feed him, that eat with him. whether its a luxurious meal or just an apple they share.

thinking abt how pretty much everytime he saved/liberated a place/island/nation was bc someone from the place had fed him.

how when he actived gear 5 he was fighting to save a nation that its main problem was starvation. and not only that but the food there had also been weaponized to mock them and make them suffer more. and it was fighting for them that he fully reached the form of nika, the form that will allow him to bring down the current government and its system which creates these areas where people starve

also! how in zoros introduction we see him eat something that was on the dirt, partly bc he hadnt eaten in a long time and partly bc someone made it and risked themselves to bring it to him. and how sanji is always happy to cook for anyone whos hungry and absolutely hates food waste. and how these two are luffys wings

#this all makes me very emotional #but setting that aside #theory time #its pratically a given that luffy will get to laughtale > find out what was joyboys goal >#see that it aligns with his true dream (the one oda keeps teasing but never revealing) > and go on to finish joyboys mission >#which will involve taking down if not the world government at least the celestial dragons (especially imu and the gorousei)#but for that to happen his true dream has to be something world changing #and even though he causes a lot of revolutions he does so for personal reasons #he doesnt care abt politics #and only challenges the system when it personally affects him and/or those he cares abt #so the only way i can see his dream aligning with joyboys goal is #if he wants to make sure that the people he cares abt never go hungry again #and to end starvation on a global scale he will have to destroy the current system #ive seen people theorise that his dream is to have a giant feast with a bunch of people #but i think he would want something more permanent #one piece #monkey d luffy #luffy #gear 5th #roronoa zoro #black leg sanji #sun god nika #joy boy #wano arc #ANYWAY #ODA AND THE FANS MAKE A LOT OF JOKES ABOUT LUFFYS RELATIONSHIP WITH FOOD BUT I THINK ITS BEAUTIFUL #AND SAD #AND IT BRINGS ME JOY TO SEE HOW HAPPY HE IS WHEN HES EATING

to think within the next month we’re gonna find out if lou and therefore tommy and bucktommy is staying in season 8…. if he doesn’t stay i’ll be sad and all but i’m not gonna stop watching the show or being a fan of lou obviously. but if he does….. oh just anticipating the levels of excitement and vindication has me hyped….

#i’m gonna be hopeful about it because if he doesn’t stay #that would make it buck’s 4th end of season -> beginning of new season break up #and after all that talk about getting him off the hamster wheel. all the talk about getting someone who was involved with the 118 #and the show previously.#it would make more sense to keep him on #anyways. fingers crossed we get confirmation sooner than they are on set #or as soon as they are #i know some things are dependent on lou because he could decide it’s not worth it #but after all the times he’s said he wants tommy to be back on season 8 and to have a character with more emotional depth #and how with tommy ‘people see me for me’#i’m hopeful #bucktommy #911

@harukehn and I finally wrapped up Path of Fire in our RP so I made this little comparison on how they've grown and changed over the course of the story so far. ※ For context - they met right at the start of Path of Fire so this is also an overview of their initial bond development.

#gw2 #guild wars 2 #gw2 oc #gw2 sylvari #art #lyhil #harukehn #sylvari #sorry for using default CSP ass font ill find smth else next time LOL #anyway i cried and bawled so much making this smh got emotional over these two growing closer after always being at each others throats #all it takes is one million missions a death a resurrection and two handfuls of charged sparring for [redacted] to bloom on the battlefield #this was meant to be a quick overview piece and then i got too involved kicks dirt i gotta learn how to sketch fr dude

"Once again, the inside is full of a deep, dark, particle fog. And out of that fog steps Eve. She's smiling brightly, but not unchanged. Around her is a cloak of purple particles, billowing bright and regal behind her. In her hand is a torch, its handle made of golden particles, its flame burning brightly."

inspired by Take the Future by BeaconHill <з

#it's so damn good and also the last chapter came out TODAY so you can binge it!#there's DRAMA. there's A REVOLUTION. there's A LOT OF AL (my beloved)!#it was such a nice journey! with. some emotional rollercoasters involved. aaaaaaaa #i'm gonna miss them all #eve ily #ty beacon <з #the talos principle #my art
