one of my best friends is about to have a baby today........... so weird to be on the periphery of something so life changing. I want to go "life is going to change forever" as if it hasn't already

i have a weird relationship with weight because i hated eating more than anything the moment i was ready for solids ( i hate chewing with my entire life always have & will ) which made me underweight for most of my life ( to this day ) & during late primary-middle school this made me actively suicidal because i felt like something was wrong with my sex because i just was not developing whatsoever prompting me to have a years long phase of trying to gain weight in any way i could ( #EPICFAIL by the way ) & i was already insecure but i felt seriously so unforgivably ugly after bullying not just at school but by adults of my entourage. but then i did in my late 15s which prompted the pendulum to swing in the other direction & suddenly i FREAKED OUT & thought well being skinny is pretty much all i have & know myself to be & clearly it is not going to last forever so i Better preserve it i was delusional about how skinny i thought i was actually i look stumpy & weird i have to prove myself. But now i am normal again kind of

Okay but about that new Alien Stage thing....I know this is a tired and true cliche that is pretty popular with most modern metafiction but, like....I'm unironically asking. What if we're the aliens observing these characters like they're our pets?

Im sure someone has said this before, but I cannot stand when people in the TS fandom complain about the finale taking as long as it is.

First of all, we know Thomas has been actively working on the finale. He has updated us about it consistently. It is four parts long. It has music. It takes a lot of effort.

Second of all, Thomas’ career is his creative expression. Whether you like it or not, he is an artist. Artists owe you nothing. Their art is for them, not for you and your consumption. If you can look through an entire gallery of hard work and get upset when the artist hasn’t added to a painting and can only focus on that then you contribute to the unfair treatment of artists. Stop allowing yourself to be brainwashed by capitalistic consumerism.

That, along with the fact that Thomas hears your criticism and wants to make up for lost time, is why the finale is four parts and musical. Because that is what Thomas wants it to be as the artist.

While artists like Thomas rely on that consumption to make a living off of their creative expression, that does not mean they need to live in service to the consumer because, as I said, art is for the artist.

I might sympathize more if the situation was that he hadn’t posted any sanders sides content since POF, but we have had content. We’ve had WTIT and a slew of short form content, but it seems like most critics aren’t just content with what they have. Which is incredibly ungrateful considering how much effort Thomas puts into listening to his audience.

Long story short; let Thomas be an artist and make the art he wants to make for goodness sake.

I read the chapter, and I do feel mixed about the explanation sukuna gave and what it means to the protagonists and certain other things... but, one thing I do like is that from the moment before his death is that he finally was able to be himself, not the strongest. Him being killed by someone stronger removed that concept that applied to him, caused his loneliness and own identity crisis (Geto's question), and the line people had drawn between him and themselves is why he also used Jujutsu as a way to satisfy himself in that Strongest role. At that point, he spoke in that scene from a place of humility, one thing he hasn't felt in years, if ever.

Nanami mentioned where to go if you want to return to the way you are, you go south and if you wish to make yourself anew, go north. He might go south to return to his blue spring, but it's also likely he could go north at this in the crossroads of the afterlife because this is new to him - that he is not the strongest, but he just a human named Satoru Gojo and he died, surrounded by people he loved and with no regrets.

should i watch sub or dub digimon

OU i dont really have a straight answer for this but heres a rundown on em (when i rewatched it last summer me and my pals switched between dub and sub

simple answer; watch atleast the first episode of the dub sometime. its silly. you wont regret it - and you could always switch to sub if you feel like it / wanna see what the original tone is

i have a huge fondness for the dub and still think it holds up quite well ! even if sometimes they try and shove a joke in there every other sentence its still like, usually endearing. digimon wasnt dubbed by 4kids interestingly enough, so it has all that old anime dub goofiness intentional or not but WITHOUT cultural references being taken out for the most part. the tones of the dub and sub are a little different of course, sometimes scenes are altered or changed slightly, and different music is used (they got this like. orchestral rendition of the dub opening playing for so many scenes and also this one god damn song that is so funny to me. hey digimon hey digimon monster friends to the boys and girls), but they did try their best to keep the original meanings/context in tact for the most part, even if its very much "need to make this a little more attention grabbing for the american children watching in 1999" also i am just a sucker for the voice acting honestly. i like the va's that were chosen A LOT and it makes me miss old dubs

you'll essentially get the same understanding of the series no matter which version you watch, it really just depends on whether or not you want 4kids-esque silliness or 100% original meaning all the time. i know that i watched most of the "important" episodes/atleast watched important scenes subbed because i for sure didn't want anything altered/just wanted to see how different it was in tone compared to the dub

ALSO !!!!!!!!!!!!

before you watch digimon adventure 1999, id say watch the short ova - simply titled 'digimon' - for sure watch this - and the film that comes AFTER the series 'our war game' SUBBED. it was released just a day before the series was to come out, and acts as a prologue/introduction of sorts to the series ! its also just a wonderful gem of animation and very worth the watch. and while the animation style and tone differ between it and the actual series, the guy who directed the ova (mamoru hosoda, director of summer wars, wolf children, and most recently - belle) returned to direct episode 21 of the series, and its very very apparent.

^ ova looks like this - for the english release they took this, along with two other digimon films, and tried to mash them together to be more appealing to english audiences. some funny bits but it just mangles the films very horribly aswell - the series dub tries to not do this !

thats all hopefully this isnt too long of a read - tried to limit explanations as best as i could .... weh

Days when I’m done with work before 15.00:

[dredshirtroberts]

had a dream where i'd ended up following a group of lads a bit like they were the pied piper, and then had to stop a bit i was doing about pretending i was at a church thing because i got too into it and said we should pass the peace around in a closed room where everyone but me had COVID.

so i'm doing super good and normal about things so far.

[alittleemo]

somehow forgot why my work story was called osha violations. i remember now !

[2-braincells]

genuinely pissed cuz i cant see the solar eclipse in totality. my earth and space science teacher hyped it up in like. november. and then he took his grade 9 physics kids instead. one of my friends is going to totality, but a different friend already asked for a ride, so theres no room for me. someone else mentioned they might be able to take me, but that didnt work out either. i decided to go to my elementary schools watch party in their parking lot. not in totality, but free sunglasses! that meant i couldnt go to school, though. but, of FUCKING COURSE, THERE WERE CANCELLATIONS AND SPOTS WITH THE GRADE 9S OPENED UP. IF ID GONE TO SCHOOL I WOULD'VE GOT TO SEE IT IN TOTALITY. WHAT THE FUCK. WHY. we didnt get the message until too late, and my moms got our car so there was no way we could go. i guess ill never see it in totality until my 40s in spain or whatever.
