It is actually crazy to me that all the way back in episode 6, Robbie planted the seed of that song his mother sang to him. How his recreation of it then was "slightly dissonant", and the version in 105 is one where the notes finally all fell into place. That deep connection to his family and backstory, in a context we wouldn't understand until years later? That's beautiful commitment to storytelling.
#honestly i was thinking about the ep 6 parallel last night while watching i just didn't have time to make the gifset then#like WOW. what a detail for robbie to bring back and narratively conclude years after introducing it#cr spoilers#cr tag

Been thinking about the absolute ridiculousness of our current presidential election cycle and how it must look to the rest of the world.
Oh, you mean the guy y’all impeached and who incited an insurrection is running again…..?
Yep.
The same guy who is now a convicted felon and has like a million other pending cases against him is ALLOWED to run again……?
Yep.
And WHAT DO YOU MEAN SOMEONE JUST TRIED TO SHOOT HIM, MISSED AND CLIPPED HIS EAR.
Mhm. Yep. I know.
AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE INCUMBENT PRESIDENT DROPPED OUT
Mmmm yeah, he wasn’t polling great and donors wanted him gone.
AND NOW THE VP IS RUNNING AND CONSERVATIVE’S BIGGEST TALKING POINT IS THAT SHE’S A CHILDLESS WOMAN????????
Yeah, idk 🤷🏻♀️ it is what it is, yah know
Anyway. I can’t wait for this whole circus to be done and over with. It’s been absolutely joke.
#politics#us presidents#us politics#Joe Biden#kamala harris#donald trump#democrats#republicans#presidential election#vote#voting#obviously I’m not saying you shouldn’t vote#if anything this is all reason you should vote no matter what#I’m just so tired of living through historic events#and honestly I just imagine foreigners reading about us news and being wow wtf lmao#like how I felt when that whole thing with the tories and the pm happened last year was it?#anyway#blah

Vienna 1989/90 giving me that tasty Tuggoffelees juice at the end of Mistoffelees' number. Love how Misto just spins Tugger away. It also actually reminds me a lot of a very similar duo spin dance at the end of this number that happens in Zurich with Lindsay Chambers' Misto, but instead it's with Munkustrap rather than Tugger.
And in Zurich's case, well, let's say that this Misto has a very different experience to Valentin's (who reminds me a lot of Tim Scott's Misto, especially with the makeup), and Munk is more showing he has accepted him fully.
@absolutehumandisaster - hope you don't mind me tagging you as I feel you'd be interested in my "little" tag ramble/thoughts on Valentin's vs Chambers' Mistos and how Valentin's is Chambers' Misto once he is fully accepted and has grown exponentially in confidence by the next Jellicle Ball.
#Cats the Musical#Rum Tum Tugger#Mistoffelees#Tuggoffelees#Valentin Baraian#Brian Carmack#would honestly be interesting to hear from Carmack#how he adapted to two very different Mistos#like Chambers' shy uncertain Misto is a 180 from Baraian's confident Misto#who is accepted as part of the tribe and is unafraid to show off his powers#(not that Chambers' Misto is afraid to show his powers- he definitely wants to show 'em off - see Gumbie Cat)#and even helps Munk out and takes the leadership role as regularly as he does#I like to think of Valentin's Misto as Zurich Misto when he's a lot more confident#in a year's time maybe a couple years' time#this is who Zurich Misto becomes one day#a confident and strong leader on the same footing as Munk#Also would love to ask Chambers why or how he interpreted Misto#the way he had - did he see others' Mistos before?#man I'd have SO MANY questions for all these actors!#wow what a big tag ramble I'll shut up now lol

One time I saw someone try to claim that Edelgard was a victim of bigotry and I didn't know how to respond to that. I mean that figuratively. Trying to explain what bigotry means to them was obviously a lost cause and a waste of time, so I didn't bother
But still....
What kind of bigotry does this white girl face?
?
Maybe it was from a devoted fan ranting about how some part of the fandom is "bigoted" and hates her?
Or it's again "projection 101" and an argument thrown at her because the double headed eagle mascot is less engaging than Saint Hatsune Marie Miku ?
#anon#fandom woes#let me guess it was on redshit?#honestly it felt refreshing to play UO and have a church/religious organisation that isn't the supreme evil of the game#Fodlan needs projection to stand because the 10k years of lore will never be released#but when projection goes too far you get some devoted takes like wow#idk what's the expression in english#throw spaghetti against a wall and see if it sticks?#or rather using big words to win outrage points even when you most likely don't know what those words mean#Fodlan discourse in a nutshell lol

I need scenes where Daryl explicitly shows that he loves Carol for all of who she is as a human. I know we know it, even though that feeling has been fading since the spin-off and even in parts of season 11. But I reallyyy need at least one scene where Daryl catches Carol doing something distinctly Carol and looks at her for a *prolonged* time with unambiguous love all over his face. And then he actively shows and tells her. Like the scenes where Aaron and Rosita see Carol putting herself through pain to kill the horse to feed Alexandria. I need to know that Daryl sees that in her. And I need to see him radiate intense love in her direction because she fucking needs it.
#i just feel like carol has spent years and years and years being the most selfless and loving human on the planet#and she has no idea how fuck beautiful of a human she is#even though her family love her they also punish her for her flaws and its gross honestly#but you know who never did that#daryl#and you know who now feels like he sometimes does that#you guessed it#and i just feel like shes trapped in this state of daryl being the only person who always loved her unconditionally and just hoping for...#for that version of him to come back again#but shes not asking for it bc she doesnt think she deserves it#but she hopes#and it feels like he isnt there for her#not really#i need her to feel loved again#even when they reunited in france it just felt like she was relieved to have found him but at terminus it was more like joy to realise...#how much he loved her#when does she get to have that again#even the shocked look she gave during “im the one you tell” when she realised he actually WANTS to be there for her i'd like that again#our man daryl just built all of this reassurance that he loves and supports her and then when shes at her most lost he withdraws it#like what the fuck#i just want carol happy so much#or just LOVED i just want her to feel truly loved#bc right now i feel like she feels like people just tolerate her#can anyone honestly tell me they watched tboc and feel like carol feels unwaiveringly loved and supported throughout that series#bc wow#silly me but i think we all deserve more than what she got there#caryl#the book of carol#tboc#carol peletier

Everyone Introduced in Dimension 20's Fantasy High: Junior Year episode 20 (finale)
#dimension 20#dimension 20 spoilers#d20 introductions#fhjy#fantasy high junior year#d20 fhjy#WOW dang. what a season#i'm glad the episode didn't end on like. as bleak of a note as it could have for the ratgrinders#being literal teens that were taken advantage of by adults that groomed them and all#was honestly REALLY obsessed by the implications of like how kipperlily's shatterstar was willing and the rest of her friends' weren't.#like there are so many fucking ways that could be interpreted#was she the last to go? was she the first? did she KNOW? was she complicit in it? did she do it by her own hand? what HAPPENED there?#i'm so obsessed. like holy fuck#also this is something vague i was hoping for but like- in the combat when ally said they wanted to go for oisin after he died at first#i was thinking of something like. that they might revive the ratgrinders whose shatter stars already left to have them rejoin the fight#on THEIR side for the purposes of saving the others? but that didn't happen and went on otherwise#i can't. fucking believe. that we got fucking blimey'd AGAIN. fucking insane#and now K2 canonically exists in the real world#fig has an army of inevitable automatons hunting her. fabian has a literal unborn nemesis. adaine has a wizard mom to kill.#senior year problems..... honestly i feel like the high level play this season was really fun to watch#and i think i'd really enjoy seeing a senior year too#what a season. i was IMMENSELY enjoying it for the majority of it that like Starkly dropped around eps 18 and 19 that left a bad taste#but i don't know. i feel like the finale managed to salvage some of that good that i'd really enjoyed over the course of the season#what a ride though‚ I did enjoy it a lot#see y'all next season!!

i really like how looking at kefkas design (in both the game and in the concept art) at first glance it's like oh! what a cool fun guy! and then you play the game and you're like oh okay so he's genuinely the worst
#and you know what honestly it's evil that a 35 year old man is somehow serving face better than i am#NO BUT REALLY when my mom introduced me to the game when I was younger i was like oh wow how cool!#and then he was decidedly less cool#6 year old me: he seems fun!!!#(he proceeds to poison an entire country's water supply)#6 year old me: what#final fantasy 6#final fantasy vi#final fantasy#kefka ff6#kefka palazzo#ffvi#petition to start calling kefka freakazoid 3000 (because i already do so everyone should start doing it)#ALSO LATELY NONE OF MY POSTS ARE SHOWING UP IN THE TAGS#FF6 NATION CAN YOU HEAR ME#banging on the walls LET ME OUT#/silly#/chattin abt ff6

*shows up to the finale a day late with take out*
WOW was this. a ride. i went through. SO MANY EMOTIONS and also that boss fight was *oof* it took me a few tries though not as many tries as magical girl transformation jaania
but!!! just!!! the mage trio!!! who we have to leave behind!!! who is depending on us to get them out of there!!! aequillibria and everything it entails!!! i'll be glad to slow down with dragonfable for a bit now that i've caught up (except for everything with roirr and the first weaver stuff i didn't actually. get to that. but i will. i have Theories about what exactly happened there given it's placement in the timeline or rather, what the consequences of it were (aka i think i know what broke the magesterium or at least who broke the magesterium)), but i'm also super excited for what may come next!!!
we've got all these new tiny fissures, we've got the rift still open in the deadlands, we've got aequllibria to figure out, there's of course several open-ended side stories that still need closure like the fear saga and six heroes... and there's so much more of lore to discover! obviously there's more of the continent across the sea, but what about the lands to the south? the other side of the world where uaanta and notha come from! so many possibilities!!
but also the finale itself was so satisfying. it tied up some more threads, left other stuff open for the epilogue and for the future book 4, made me cry over the mage trio and then made me lose my mind over cysero and his big red (reset???) button (dragonfable devs please you can't keep doing stuff like this to us you've put so many mechquest references in book 3 we're gonna lose it (i still actually have to. play through mech quest. hopefully in a more sedate manner than i have torn through dragonfable). duality of video game, tonal whiplash my beloved
...i don't know where i was going with this but in conclusion i love this game and i'm still having emotions about everything
just. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
#dragonfable#dragonfable spoilers#i can confidently put that tag now lol this is recent release stuff and not stuff from last year#the finale!!!#the mage trio!!!#the magesters!!!#i was not expecting to like ostromir as much as i do now but honestly he has a great character arc#moving on#alteon!!! very interesting that he's opting to go with the magesterium#also i hope amadeus made it back to lynn okay#i wonder how nythera and lynn are gonna split alexander's things#(yes i know they aren't dead but he made the joke first)#also like#i'm still mad at jaania for. everything.#but i think getting trapped in what is basically a Time Out Bubble with her two former friends is a good enough punishment#hopefully the three of them have a good long talk and certain parties get some much needed self reflection#anyways can't wait for them to be freed so we can get more Villain Rehab Tower shenanigans#hm. i hope next book we also get more amityvale and safiria.#more everyone really#so many side characters we barely saw in book 3#and some we didn't see at all!#how is vayle doing#oh wow i have#rambled in these tags a lot#anyways uhhh here's to more of everyone in book 4#and here's to more enjoyment of dragonfable in the years to come!!

I'm really sorry you and your sister are dealing with that
(no pressure to publish this, not that there should ever be pressure to publish an ask if you don't want to, of course, but just wanted to say I hope you're doing okay)
Ah, thank you, anon, it's okay. It's been a while now (court moves slooow), but we're getting hopefully close to the end. She filed in Family Court December 2022, and we've had about five interim hearings with final trial (finally) scheduled over four days next month, so fingers crossed! But yeah, it's been A Time. He's financially and emotionally abusive against my sister, and both those things as well as medically negligent against their children (who are only six and eight and both have special needs), so it's been....rough. To say the least.
But on a lighter note, have one of my new favourite photos I took of my nephews at the jellyfish enclosure at the aquarium last month!
#i DO feel like i have an honourary family law degree at this point haha#and i think i've got at least three different creative projects that are coming out of it because the levels of insight#you develop#is just#yes#wow#A Lot#i hhaaaated the idea when i was younger that you became a better writer as you get older#like i think i genuinely did have this mindset like age has nothing to do with talent#and i kind of do still think that#i think there are young writers who are wildly good#but it's also impossible to articulate the absolute wilderness that is humanity that you get deeper into as you age#that makes me sound a hundred lmao i'm 33#but i think in particular there's this pivot point when the people you love start to have families of their own with people who are#so removed from your way of being#and sometimes that's amazing and sometimes that's awful#and what comes out in the wash of that is just a perfect mix of generational trauma AND generational enabling#privilege and expectation and mindsets around familial roles#and the sudden and horrible reveal that you have had children with a man who will be diagnosed a destructive narcissist#and who will reject the idea of your children having disabilities because how could he - a perfect man - father children with disabilities#and will turn all that loathing onto a woman he once said he loved because he decides she is the defective one who gave him broken children#which is literally how he thinks#it's soooo#yeah#anyway my sister is amazing and my nephews are perfect#and honestly it's been special in a lot of ways because y'know i'm a middle child she's my big sister#and we've had a tumultuous relationship over the years but this has honestly made us closer than we've ever been in our lives#and i'm proud of that but i'm really proud of the relationship i have with those little boys#and i think need hope we're going to win and she'll be able to move herself and the boys here even as the odds are stacked against us SO#i WILL also be calling on the universe / heavens / everyone's good vibes next month

Had a lovely disheartening conversation with my mother where she reveals that she's always been completely disinterested in all of my interests because she thinks that stories are "garbage" and despite my trying to explain it to her several times, does not understand that they can convey meaning relevant to the real world. Great. Cool. Surface level reading. That's all she's ever done with media I guess???? Wow.
#ive tried to share my interest with her because that's how I bond with her and yeah maybe it would be nice to have a family memeber I'm#friends with for once but she always seems so like. annoyed? by all the things I like and wow I guess this is why. because you somehow in#your nearing 50 years of life have never realized that shows can have a deeper meaning than what they convey on the surface.#she won't even try. i tried to expalin to her how it's an interest of mine and how I care about it a lot and would appreciate if she trie#to enjoy it and she called it garbage. honestly explains a lot about how she treats people.#vent#op

The Most Unhinged semifinals are really such a good snapshot of characters I have loved, damn. Ming doesn't stand a chance against Vegas and Xie'er doesn't stand a chance against Xue Yang but I'm so proud of them for making it into the final four against such beautifully insane heavy hitters <3
#ming you're fighting VEGAS how does it feel hon#i never told tumblr but before joe locked himself down for a year of ming dick (i.e. fulfilled my deepest fantasies on his own)#i was planning to try to write a fic where ming in a time loop without joe#decides what he did wrong was not keep joe chained to a couch successfully enough#and goes to his friend vegas for some help and advice and gets gifted a safehouse#i still think ming could learn so much from vegas!!!!!#and i honestly think xue yang would be very impressed by xie'er#like oh your guy is alive and yours forever but still suffering eternal revenge? WOW man#hero worship of yiling laozu cancelled scorpion prince is my idol now#dear diary

Ghost Stories dub is INSANELY funny but it's that specific kind of funny where you HAVE to know the person first. If you are the kind of queer that CANNOT abide calling yourself a fag i cannot show you this funny cartoon bc by episode 10 they have used every slur man has ever invented. it is truly the lowest brow of comedy and it only works bc it's so so so clearly layered on top of a show that was meant to be taken seriously but sucked. and this was the only way they could think to salvage it
#titi talks#honestly being somebody who can reclaim most of the slurs they use makes it even funnier#kenchiiro: *cries and babbles incoherently* *gets called a fag* *becomes even less coherent*#me: wow he's just like me#anyway if you think a five year old figuring out what hookers are is funny you should watch it#it's so insanely 2000s
