hey, maybe a hot take, but I think the best relationships are the ones where one character isn't just the other's romantic interest, they have more arcs than that, yk
#i swear i can't believe there are people who say ājay just being nya's boyfriend is great bc she's been a love interest for so longā#like. dude. if you have to downgrade one so the other can shine then. it doesn't work.#both characters should be able to be their own characters on their own#jay hasn't had a dedicated arc for himself since. s1 and his coming to terms with his parents arc. soo#I think mayybee#it's better to have female characters who can have their own independence without applying the same treatment to their partner#im just rambling. god. fandom jaya. you are something#early nya treatment was horrible i know#but at least Nya has had like. 3 arcs related to her powers (5. 14. 11)#arcs related to finding out what happened to her family. improving her relationship with her mother and accepting their relationship.#Jay sure has had... his arc with Cole in s4. which also related to the love triangle

Someday Iāll stop reblogging arcane critical posts Iām sure but fjskdjsksjs my cousin finally finished and I was sent back into the hole that is āwtf was that I am actually so thoroughly dissatisfied with nearly every narrative choice they made now that Iām not being blinded by emotionsā and i fear Iām no fun to talk to ab it for her š
The tags for this got Crazy but I stand by them š (tho none of it is polished so, yk, donāt come at me if some stuff is a lil underbaked ok, I only got 30 sentences)
#she was still in her grieving jinx era#tbf to her it took me a day for my feelings to go from man the visuals were so stunning and the emotional hurt from vi and jinx#to actually analyzing but like#on nearly every level for the characters I was dissatisfied#yes even echo#bc whERE were the firelights#and I KNOW all of it boils down to#they did not care to tell the story of a revolution#they just didnāt#so the characters have to drop every part of that until it becomes an afterthought#despite it being the driving tension of season 1#Vi does not think on her actions at all which Iāve talked a bit more ab elsewhere so Iāll spare you#jinx has the most relation to that plotline but even then we donāt linger on it like I thought through isha we could go down and parallel#silco and vanders struggle.. silco wanting independence but not being able to trade his daughter vander putting down his gloves to make sur#they were safe#and jinx who really didnāt care that much ab the politics presumably channeling that same energy into fighting for independence for isha#could be so goodā¦ esp if it was combined w a storyline where Vi recons w her own identity outside just a protector of jinx#and then echo and his firelights building community and fighting for his ppl like#do u see what Iām saying#for sevika I think wld have been rlly interesting to show her shift from follower to leader bc she has always wanted whatās best for zaun#but has always simply backed whoever she thought would get it done#I think her taking more agency in it was a good choice I also think her and ekko shld have some sort of interaction#and Mel should have beat her mom with her own strengths. her political savvy. her cunning. and her ideals. and should have pushed for an#independent zaun bc I think Mel wants peace and I think if the story cared to go the revolutionary way she would have known what the right#thing to do was. also her mom shld not have suddenly been stupid. after pushing for the war and finally getting the weapon advancement rout#she wanted maybe she does something else. but also I think Jayce and Viktor realizing what they have created w their science was a good plo#itās not the technology it is how you wield it and how you develop it and then realizing what theyāve done was always good. I hate the pivo#to oh yea itās actually the magic is bad.. like.. ok. intrinsic magic good. magic to better the society and cure ppl badddd (tho thatās not#where they ended up but the story made it seem like yea the arcane is just bad nd it corrupts if you ask too much of it ??#arcane critical

how does anyone think about property investing without feeling absolutely miserable about the state of our capitalist society
#diya's musings#i'm reading a property investor book my dad gave me bc he said i should 'take the advice that he wishes he was given'#and i want to actually commit war crimes the more i read#the author owns 7 properties!!! and this was in 2012!! who knows if that has changed#and it's all about the gains you can make and how you should just keep accruing more properties over time for as much money as possible#and how properties rising in value to astronomical prices is a good thing for investors fuck off fuck off fuck off#oh i can't forget the one small note at the start that was like 'people will saying having a lot of money and properties like this is evil#but what could be evil about having the ability to make the world a better place with it?' SIR???#TELL ME HOW YOU AND YOUR 7 PROPERTIES ARE MAKING THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE#and it's like i'm complicit in this bc my parents owned an investment property for a while before selling it off like last year to buy#our new house so like i have benefitted from it#and like it's so fucked that if i don't want to do this i won't be able to pay my student loans or fund the lifestyle i want independently#idk i just fucking hate capitalism#and it'll be even worse if dutton wins the upcoming election#i can kiss goodbye the opportunity to be financially independent with financial freedom

currently at That Point which occurs once every few months where one briefly begins pacing around the house teary eyed contemplating selling their own organs or becoming an online scammer or getting on anxiety meds so you can bear the risk taking required to be a hitman or so on and so forth.... why must everything so Expensive... Surely all would be healed in life if only I had one big plate of lasagna and a simple loan of $40,000 ... auoughhh....
#And then you just eventually shrug and go 'welp. nothing i can do i guess' and sad cartoon music plays as you shuffle back to your room#It's just hard with my specific physical and mental issues since it's like.. I couldn't really handle most jobs. I can't handle school. I'm#100% aromantic and asexual so I'll never get married so I can't get money that way. I have too much issues with social cues#+ too nervous temperament + too low energy to put effort into lying and having a fake relationship just for money. so on and so forth etc.#Really I should have just been born into a middle class family. Which I guess everyone says. but ESPECIALLY considering my#chronic conditions kind of hampering my ability to function 'normally' or be Independent in a regular way. I'm always going to be#in some way sort of beholden to the whims of people around me who I must depend on. so... well of course they might as well have been rich#lol like that would have been better for me of course.#AAANyway... Just thinking about another stupid fucking climate change summer... months keep going by so fast.. soon it will be so again#And it's like such SMALL things would make drastic improvements for me. Literally if I just had a place with central AC#then like 75% of my issues with summer would vanish instantly. literally. But instead it's like.. having a cheap hot apartment + only#half functional dinky window ac + my illnesses that make me heat sensitive + living in a part of the country that keeps getting hotter +#inability to leave the house much meaning I can't just go spend time in a cooler place etc. all factors which combine together to make#it just utterly miserable for MONTHS and mentally draining. And literally ALL I would need to fix that is just...#have a place with central AC that works.. (or move to a colder country/area but that also takes money. Or just not have illnesses#that make me heat sensitive. but that I can't control). etc. etc. I guess it's just the nature of the constant background frustration of#being part of The Masses under our current manifestation of unmitigated capitalism. Such minor details would make such huge#quality of life improvements and yet will remain ever out of reach. ONE little thing could change your whole life but you can't even have#that. so many 'If only' scenarios. etc. And of course obviously I am incredibly thankful just to have anywhere to live at all. food to eat#. any sort of stability whatsoever no matter how fragile it feels/is. But that still doesn't make it not frustrating occasionally to look#around and see how relatively little would have to change in order for you to be a decent percentage more comfortable and yet#how still far away even those ''small'' seeming goals are. etc. etc.#Seriously think I've been traumatized by the summer or something somehow lol like thinking about it being warm weather eventually#makes me nauseous with panic. It's just SOOO much labor. micromanaging windows and fans and blocking every ounce of light#and not being able to cook (cant even afford a single degree of temp increase due to the stove) for months and barely being able#to sleep for months and the claustrophobia of days on end crawling out of your skin because it doesnt even get cool enough at#night to offer relief so you're just always feeling trapped.. hgrhh...#It starts getting hot here sometimes in May but mostly June then lasts through October now.. thats like half the year almost.. ARghhH#anyway... If any extremely rich person reading this would like to buy me an air conditioned house in exchange for multiple years worth#of art (I will paint murals on all of your grand dining halls and make all the custom sculptures you could ever want etc) then.. hewwo :'3c

Tuvok & Seven of Nine should have been overbearing co-parents to the borg children
#non romantic co-parents and they won't even admit they're friends (they don't have* friends! they don't need friends!)#star trek voyager#they are organizing a joint schedule they have a shared space google doc#Seven of Nine#Tuvok#They are both overbearing in different ways <3#I think Tuvok is an excellent father and also that he would not be able to parent every child effectively - especially non Vulcans#Meanwhile Seven is like 'Children are basically little employees I have to train yes?'#Chakotay: You're not going to be raising this children...alone. will you??#Seven: Of course not. / Chakotay: Thank G- / Seven: Commander Tuvok will assist me.#Chakotay: -the most forced smile ever- o h h........#*spoiler: They're very good friends#I think Tuvok would want them to be better behaved than they are but know that children are unpredictable to a degree and they've#been through a lot meanwhile Seven really has no reference for what children are supposed to be do and act like#besides. Seven doesn't need to be a mother. She's like twenty something and newly independent - she should have been at the club instead of#performing femininity so she could be a ''''''real woman''''''#Stop making female characters mothers.......its enough.#None of the VOY women should have been mothers. Maybe Kes - she seemed like she maybe wanted kids. I could see Kes being a good mom#down the line (not in Elogium I liked that episode and its ending) but none of the rest of them needed#or seemed to particularly want that

new goal in business major studies: find a cruelty free way of scamming rich people
#ok so far we got that luxury is mostly about pricing the brand itself independently of the production of the good#so 20000 dollars for a bag sounds like a scam bc in its core it literally is luxury product is just a fancier way of saying it#and logically raw materials + appropriate payment for design and craftsmanship cannot cost 20000 or some shit#so theoretically (and very ironically) luxury market is a very legitimate way of scamming the rich#and the quality of the product is replicable for much much lower prices so as long as you brand it differently#even the not so rich should be able to access almost the same product as long as it is branded differently#so the question of alienation of the worker from the product is at least alleviated#also none of this makes sense so just skip it#im just loving the idea of scamming rich fucks#bc i started a training on luxury market and none of this shit is sensible to me and it is so funny that it is important to a small group

#hereās how zaun independence can still win#you said we have self-rule but have to run law changes by you? fuck you.#hereās how we change the first law. donāt you want your upstanding businesswoman to be able to stay?#well she canāt be a citizen of Piltover due to your charter. be a shame to lose her to noxus wouldnāt it?#and they work together to set zaun up as actually independent. thanks for coming to my ted talk#unfortunately i could not write political intrigue if my life depended on it#anyway#crucially i do actually want to talk about how mel participated in zaunās exploition!#like she had a really interesting character arc where she recognized what she was doing subconsciously when faced with her mom#who was doing it actively!#the violence of imperialism comes in all shapes#if only i could write#arcane#< for organization#should have yapped enough this wonāt show in the main tag

Right now is the first time since we did the last things with mormors apartment that I'm sort of starting to get physically restored. Which means it's taken me 5 days to recover from what should be easy to do but no I have to be cursed health wise. Yesterday I went 24 hours without eating because I spent most of that time in bed unable to move a single muscle. Didn't drink that much either but at least I had very brief bursts of energy that was enough for me to carry a glass of water without dropping it. Trying to cook some sort of proper food now despite barely being able to hold the pans (drained what little energy I had to do dishes). I feel like everyday is just spent anxiously wallowing in how I'm likely never going to get better than this, that I'll require even more outside support than I already do, and that I won't be able to properly support my parents when they reach the age of needing it.
#god im sorry but holy shit its so hard to feel optimistic about anything#and like i do have a support net and im blessed and grateful for them#but theres something so deeply soul crushing about watching your own already limited ability evaporaring further#and knowing that you'll never gain the full on independence you yearned for#and that youre always going to remain at the mercy of needing others#and not even being able to return that support#and like people can tell me thats not how it works all they want i know that#but i still dont feel good about that. i know its not my fault but i still mourn having to give up everything#just for the sake of maybe being able to have a somewhat pain free day once in a while if lucky#urghhhhh sorry i just#i should cook but the fact that im struggling to do so rn is fucking with my psyche#silvi talks

the thing about working in a specific industry is you get a specific variety of 'he would not fucking say that' where it's 'he would not fucking know the correct term for that.'
#brought to you by me down the rabbit hole of determining whether the little medical facility in the small town in my wip is a CAH or not#I'm like 3 levels into determining the facility structure and how it's connected to the nearest actual hospital#and whether it has beds or just outpatient services#I'm over here thinking about what imaging or testing they might be able to offer or not#and whether they should be a cooperative of independent clinicians or a branch of a larger org or a CMS-specific facility#and then I remember that nobody in this novel knows or cares about any of that#they're all going to call it 'the hospital' even if it is NOT a hospital bc they don't know the difference#and in screaming inside bc the difference is HUGE on the backend like for starters who's billing for this????? who does the claims?????#but the characters do not know or care so I don't have to either#but it's a big difference!#anyway I think I've decided it is not a CAH

there's something in the water that's specifically affecting green haired princesses who have purple eyes and also bpd (momochi and hiyori)
#I think I was able to show a new side of myself this time >< Please give it a listenā and doing spells on cheers to bless their dreams#even though both of her songs seem to be angsty and about her family#meanwhile hiyori the bitch was like#like with momochi there was her tweeting that the time for dreams is over (and yakouka possibly representing her current mental health)#and for hiyori it's her mental breakdown in accept my love#and also them brushing it off like it's nothing#like when the teaser dropped momochi tweeted something like#Life isnāt all about fun. Thereās times where you feel depressed and like you want to cry.#When that happens itās good to look at me. Because Iām the one who shines bright like the sunā#itās good to look at me. Because Iām the one who shines bright like the sunā#Listen to my songs and follow the productions I appear inā#Just imitate me and smile! Since I always have a smile on my face!"#like girl the song was you spiraling over your loved ones becoming independant and no one needing your love even though she accepted that's#now her only role in life (to love and be loved)#like no one was concerned??? esp with the contrast with fantastic days#there's something poetic about her feeling she's no longer useful and her regression when in !! she suddenly became nicer with no explanati#and also her getting 0 song event 4*s and that eden is no longer relying on her (legit did nothing important in most of the eden events)#including ss finals with the dumbass oracles like the story was fucking boring and gatekeeper legit got more importance than tori and hiyor#anyway happy bday to my beautiful princess with a disorder#they should lock momochi and hiyori in a room (they both would somehow take each other out even though momochi is built like a paper straw#and hiyori is not strong at all the heaviest thing she wants to carry is her chopsticks)#in an alternate universe hanae couldve been voicing momochi instead of yuu and it would make this post even funnier

The worst part about not going to college is there not being an easy time to move out

Bro no joke, forgetting that not everyone hates capitalism and then having to try have a reasonable conversation with someone about buying things... *eye twitch*
#to explain we will have person A - person B and then me#so person B is asking me if its ok to buy stuff from ebay - because i am a person that tries to avoid buying from amazon etc#and im like yeah should be because its independent sellers mostly - to be fair though yall. i barely buy anything online because i hate#online shopping. i try to buy things in person instead#anyways insert person A whos like ššš oH aRe YoU oNe Of ThOse PeOpLE ThAt DoESNt pUrCHasE frOm AmAzON#yall im sighing just thinking about this conversation omfg its so stupid#anyways queue me explaining that yeah. i try to avoid it if i can because i dont like my money going to some motherfucker who doesnt need#the money (person B pipes in that jeff bezos is on the way to becoming a trillionaire which is Not Good š . thank you B now i will go on)#A then goes on to explain all the benefits to amazon āwhat if you want something the next dayā i ask if theres really anything you truly#need right away like that. we used to live in times where you would have to wait or find it in a shop. A says āoh but its so cool and#convenientā and i say sure. because they have the money and grew their business of being more 'convenient' than other businesses#A says āoh but the customer service is so good. if i want a return theyll do it straight away with no questions and maybe even give me#credit tooā and im like yeah. because they can afford to do that. āsometimes independent sellers are in there tooā ok so buy from them then#If You Must but i can guarantee you mostly dont. not to mentuon theyre probably only on there in the first place because amazon has made it#so its one of the most popular places to use instead of anywhere else#and it went on. i just stopped talking eventually because it eas one of those situations where the other person was not fucking listening to#the point i was trying to make. which is that if you really have to. ok do it whatever. i get that its a bit impossible to avoid sometimes#im not gonna sit here and pretend when ive not been able to get something anywhere else i havent got it from there. but the point is to#actually think about WHY youre buying stuff and WHO the money is going to. because websites like amazon especially have created such a trend#of overconsumption. that you just buy stuff and then buy prime because oh its so cheap and useful and comes right the next day! and you dont#consider why any of these things are true. whos getting fucked over in the process. that you are one of the people getting fucked over!!!#lord i could go on but i shant#point is. genuinely do what you want like deep down i do not care it does not affect me and i know its not so straightforward#but people who just BLATANTLY and actively SUPPORT rich people (forgot to mention A kept talking about how the whole site was smart and that#Jeff was a genius blah blah) can you sit and realise that this whole system and that FUCKING Imbecile of a man are!!Ā”! a problem!!#i wish i could articulate it better but im leaving it at that#good morning yall xD#le text post
