lmao @ that reblog riffing off someone's post saying they think of wheat fields as mystical and corn fields as less so. the reblogger claims wheat seems magical to the op because it is "tied to the ancestral rituals and beliefs of most white people"

most white people's ancestors have been christian for hundreds if not over a thousand years. i hate to break it to the neopagans but we know very little about most prechristian european religious beliefs and a lot of what we do know comes through roman and/or christian writers. so those "ancestral rituals and beliefs" are vestigial at best and completely gone in most cases.

if they had just said "corn seems spookier than wheat to some white people because white people have been growing wheat for longer than corn and corn is associated with Native Americans and therefore with negative stereotypes," that would have been a defensible thesis

you could argue that when white people became interested in recovering the pre-christian beliefs of their ancestors, they carried existing patterns of meaning (including colonialist and racist bias) into the ways they reconstructed and built on those beliefs. that could explain why someone who finds spiritual meaning in a wheat field finds it there and not in a corn field. but that is a distinctly different argument

#for someone with a background like mine to claim they have some sort of cultural affinity for wheat rituals #when their ancestors probably converted to christianity about 1600-1200 years ago #would be absurd #to claim they have positive or negative associations with certain types of agriculture because of cultural history? that makes sense!#chris talks #of course there are syncretisms and vestiges that characterize different denominations and regions of christian practice #but that's not the same thing as a contiguous religious tradition

Congratulations My Hero Academia for providing, possibly, the biggest and longest legit straightbaiting yet in shonen history.

Bonus points that their final chapter was released on yaoi day.

#first of all absolutely no hate to izuocha #i actually really like them together romantically or not. i love their dynamic so much #but you must know just how hilarious and absurd it is #that this series started with them crushing on each other #and then ochako's attraction to deku became an important part of her character #BUT they completely turn it around and made it about #deku's meaning as a hero and being saved #and ochakos expression of love and understanding others #like. that is legit very compelling and a beautiful relationship #but they did not become A Couple. at least- nothing confirms nor denies it #just like how a queerbait relationship would be #absolutely hilarious. i honestly love how it ended like this #doesnt mean i love the ending tho. oh boy its weird and legit bad in many areas #But this? My god I am so fucking sold.#God bless izuocha bakudeku and togachako i love you all #evelynpr bnha #bnha #mha #my hero academia #mha 430 #mha spoilers #bnha spoilers #bakudeku #bkdk #tgck #togachako #i dont think I'll tag izuocha cus...im scared #i really dont hate it guys I promise I dont #izuku midoriya #ochako uraraka

Part two of the reverse verse is here! The reverse boys meet the original boys. They're not really getting along as well as I had hoped...

Again, this was a commission for @i-am-as-normal-as-you-are and they asked for angst/funny vibes... I think it's mostly just angst though. Oh, well...

Part one

#dead boy detectives #dbda #payneland #edwin x charles #reverse verse #there's a lot i could say about this one #the idea of someone telling edwin he's go to hell is absurd as it is #edwin telling edwin? lmao #the charles... oh they hate each other #reverse charles is angry (he always is) because this other version of himself was spared hell... in exchange for edwin going there?#obviously it doesn't work like that. og charles hadn't even been born when his edwin was sent to hell #but anger is not a rational thing. especially not for this boy #og charles? you don't want to know what he's thinking #i'm telling you anyways #he... kind of agrees. if someone had to go to hell #why edwin? why not him? there is an universe in which that happened #so why not this one? unfair #then again... look at this charles who did go to hell #he's explosive. he's DANGEROUS #he shouldn't be near edwin #if og charles had gone to hell would he be the same? would he be too angry to be trusted? would he be like his father?#and if so would that really count as saving edwin at all?#if this is the kind of best friend poor edwin would end up with?#on a happier note though #physical contact!! reverse charles loves it #i don't have all the details but his hell was on the rage ring so it was different to the dollhouse.#and it was a very violent place so boy loves gentle touches #luckily edwin is more willing to give them to him with each year #i think what the edwins are feeling is a lot more clear #but still would love to hear your thoughts

#pleuart #pleucas #bsd #bungo stray dogs #dazai osamu #chuuya #chuuya nakahara #dazai #skk #soukoku #chuuyas bike is so underrated and absurd #i know that it’s a very heartfelt and important gift but i see it as support for his descent into hedonism #if dazai can’t drive a car he sure as fuck can’t ride a bike or motorcycle #sorry for the inaccurate motorcycle anatomy #i had to make it so that a racing bike would fit two people :c #and apologies for the lack of horrific bright magenta #it just didn’t fit the color scheme 😔

he giggles

#wriothesley #neuvillette #wriolette #neuvithesley #genshin impact #he goes aheeheehooheehoohee #i think once neuvillette figures out how to make him laugh. he'd do it all day. and the formula is simple too he just gotta say something #really stupid. and absurd. in his usual super serious iudex voice #and wriothesley is in stitches. it's so easy. he just gotta say 'yippee' and profit. 'slay queen' and wriothesley is incapacitated #also. imagine he's ticklish. but i dont think Neuv would tickle him intentionally I think he's like. 'i heard tickling gets violent fast'#'i will not resort to that to summon moethesley'#he doesn't want to Hurt Him he just wants to see him smile and laugh and be all pink in the face. but I do think he accidentally #sets him off all the time. with kisses (neck/ears) or just like grabbing his waist and suddenly wriothesley violently Wriggles yknow.#the tickled reaction. wriothesley laments the destruction of his scary big dog image every day #but. neuvillette would only make jokes at home anyway. and to be clear it's the simple fact that neuvillette is trying to Be Funny .#that's really funny to wriothesley. or just like his awkwardness. back before he figures out he can Intentionally make wriothesley laugh #he'd bewitch him with his his gap moeism #the layers to it. Wriothesley gets embarrassed later on when he catches on because he Knows Neuvillette likes seeing him all tickled.#and flustered. and that's like so mortifying bro what do you mean you're happy just seeing me being moe #and he's embarrassed because he should not be falling for it every single time. it should not be this funny #the nerves just makes him laugh even harder. and the whole time neuvillette is just sitting there. silently delighted. waiting for the #perfect comedic timing. so he can drop a 'cowabunga!' with the exclaimation mark and all. wriothesley can't even catch his damn breathe #art #my art

#sars cov 2 #covid 19 #i've interacted with 4 different friends/acquaintances in the past month alone who have all been hospitalised after having a stroke #(and in one case multiple strokes)#one who i visited in hospital over the weekend had a (unmasked) nurse coughing up a lung in her room 👍#and one of them who had to undergo surgery also had to be moved to a different hospital #bc the ward they were keeping him in was full of confirmed covid patients 👍👍#idk how many times it needs to be said before it gets through people's heads but VACCINES ARE NOT ENOUGH #and encouraging ppl to rely solely on them when there are already plans to jack up the prices so you have to KEEP PAYING for boosters #for an ONGOING mass-disabling event is so laughably unrealistic and absurd and flat-out demonic #you need to mitigate the actual spread of covid by WEARING A MASK + fighting for CLEAN AIR/proper ventilation in public spaces!!!!!!#ppl are so eager to forget the whole 'break the chain of transmission' thing and how effective masking is and so this is where we're at #'i got infected and infected other ppl who might die or become permanently disabled but it's no big deal bc no one else wears a mask #so if /i/ didn't infect them someone else would have anyway so it's not my fault and really its got nothing to do with me and my choices'#if everyone is responsible then no one is responsible - that's how it works right?#it's no wonder some ppl go rabid at even the sight of someone wearing a mask and minding their own business #ppl seeking treatment for unrelated conditions/illnesses and then dying from covid caught in hospitals #due to lack of npis/basic mitigation measures - no regulations no accountability #we truly live in a hell (''new normal'') of our own making #anyway none of this is new news at all i mostly thought it might be good to share the info graphic abt signs of stroke #covid has been given free reign and chances are increasing as to how likely you'll encounter it happening to someone you know at some point #also heart attacks and pots and alzheimer's etc etc etc

Okay, so, not that anyone but me had a concern, but I'd like to let everyone know:

Yes,

the rollator does coord.

#20dollarlolita #20dollarcoordposts #20dollarlolita on wheels #lolita fashion #eglcommunity #classical lolita #classic lolita #Guess who got home from work and got into a full coord just to check if it coords #definitely not me as that would be an absolutely absurd thing to go about doing
