gay horse wrestling sequence

there would be a sixth pic where the loser finally lies down but by the time i got there i was so tired i was just so tired

social hierarchy is maintained without violence in most cases, and after the circling stage one of them backs off, knowing they'd lose a fight. but backing off means ceding your ground & movement path to the victor. it is a type of dyadic dominance so isn't relevant in contexts where two stallions aren't likely to ever meet again or associate with one another for more than a few minutes. a quick appraisal is usually enough to establish who walks freely and who moves out of the other person's way, but in the cases where neither party will back down, they're going to fight and make it everyone else's problem. there have been several documented cases of fights breaking out indoors and someone being knocked out by getting too carried away and smashing their head into the ceiling

it's extremely rare for this to result in life-threatening injuries but it does happen; a few deaths a year is the norm. sometimes a guy just doesn't know when to call it quits, or sometimes a stray kick hits the wrong place. the victor of a fight doesn't get a blanket dominant status - this is only in the context of the two participants of that particular fight

I love Raph and haven’t said that enough so to be more specific I love that Raph is a soft boy who loves bear plushies, a gross boy who eats an assortment of things that are definitely better left alone, a smart boy who is more than capable of taking down villains through planning and fortitude alike, a strong boy who is dedicated to training his muscles and fighting prowess, a teenage boy who loves his brothers but is more than happy to tease and roughhouse with them, an angry boy who sometimes lets his anger take a hold of him to cover the fear, a gentle boy who is generous with hugs and affirmations to those he loves, a capable boy who takes on more than should ever be expected of a teenager, a good boy who just wants to be a hero and slowly comes to realize the cost of that duty, a good boy who has no reservations about putting himself in the way of harm coming to his family, a good boy who’s a great brother and son and person and deserves only the best the world has to offer.

Honestly the story of mlp must be very weird from the pov of a random guy in ponyville, like one day a new antisocial librarian moves into town, and like a year later that librarian ascends into godhood and becomes the new ruler of the entire world

seriously I don’t think any show has captured the pain of being a bystander more than miseinen. like i just can’t stop thinking about everything he’s told in this episode and everything he sees and how powerless he is to do anything about it. when you say bystander, you think of people that chose to do nothing, who just stand on the sidelines and watch but don’t get involved. and maybe that’s how minase started out, but this show proves over and over again that it’s not a choice anymore. given the choice and ability, minase would stand up and do something. he’s not the person anymore stood outside hirukawa’s house with the emergency number dialed but ultimately doesn’t do it. bc he cares too much now, and when you care, you want to help. but the world is so rigid in what they expect of him and hirukawa that there is no way to help.

i keep thinking about what the teacher said at the start of the ep. this doesn’t concern you. it’s already settled. don’t make your parents worry. when minase says he’s telling the truth, he’s told to focus on what’s important- and so the truth isn’t important here, neither is what hirukawa thinks or minase thinks. it’s what someone has already decided they are, and they are just too busy or just don’t care enough to go to the effort to see whether that decision is right. it doesn’t affect them whether hirukawa is the awful person they think he is or misunderstood, to them he’s just a part of the job they want to deal with and move on. even though no other adults are as present as hirukawa’s dad or minase’s mom, the show still has these small moments that show us that there is no other option for them to get help bc no one at school cares either. i said before they live in a world of ignorance where they’re unable to ignore, and so they deal with it all instead of being able to find help. and it feels equally horrible when you consider that unlike a parent, who yes should feel some responsibility or obligation but ultimately there’s nothing holding them to that, teachers are employed and paid to care, they should help these kids as much as they teach them, so to see them chose ignorance too is just as hurtful.

and back to minase, this episode showed us perfectly how much it can hurt when you know you can’t do anything. he can’t comfort hirukawa no matter how much he wants to if hirukawa won’t let him, he can’t change his mind and how he thinks of himself bc hirukawa’s trauma traps him in that mindset. he can’t stay by hirukawa’s side and support him if hirukawa sends him anyway, he can’t fight against what someone who’s hurting wants, all he can do is listen, bc no one ever listens to what hirukawa wants, so he will, even if it hurts him, even if he knows that it’ll hurt hirukawa too. minase is done with being a bystander but even here he is forced to be one, bc the truth doesn’t get through to hirukawa just like it didn’t get through to that teacher. what’s right, which would be to stay with hirukawa and help him, doesn’t matter just like it didn’t matter to that teacher, all he can do is listen and do as they say when people tell him to walk away, that he can’t do anything. and that’s why this show is excellent, bc it makes me feel the pain of knowing but being powerless just as much as I do the pain of actually experiencing these things.

Could you draw medic doing something goofy in his lab, maybe hanging out with his birds?

i took hanging out kind of literally. i wonder how he got up?

Medic, get down, it's filthy up there!

Qi Lu just said I'm going to like you whether you fucking like it or not and you're going to admit to liking me too if it's the last thing I do.

He's just my type of deranged. I have to give him props for going hard at Qin Xiao. He is not letting Qin Xiao off an inch because of his unwavering confidence that his love is not unrequited. Boyfriends or bust. Fuck being friend zoned.

DASHING YOUTH (2024)

PROTECT QUEER YOUTH. STOP CENSORSHIP.

Citizens of the USA. Yes, all of you. Right now, I want you to look at the device you're viewing this post on and consider what the Internet has possibly done for you: have you made online friends? Have you been taught about racism? Have you learned about the queer community? Most importantly, do you have privacy?

For many, though the Internet can be dangerous and lead to stolen data and child exploitation, it is also a beautiful place to learn about other communities and build one of your own. The Internet is an incredible library full of information that many people cannot get anywhere else. Especially when it comes to LGBTQ+ resources.

Now imagine having all of that ripped away.

Your messages monitored, recorded, surveyed. Your online experience censored. Your friends or your own marginalized voices further suppressed. Your ID? In the hands of every social media site you sign up to.

Privacy? Gone. Queer safety? Fucking gone.

All of that? That's what KOSA and its affiliated bills such as EARN IT, STOP CSAM, and the Cooper Davis Act (which encroach upon data encryption and allow further surveillance), the ban on Tiktok (which is self-explanatory), and 'Footloose' bills (which may include online curfews for people under 18 and give parents complete control and surveillance over what their underaged children do, say, and see) aim to achieve.

Queer teenagers will be put at risk. LGBTQ+ resources stripped away. Any secret accounts or online friends monitored by potentially abusive parents. Teens' right to free speech destroyed.

So contact your local lawmakers. Contact your senators. Contact your USA friends and family and urge them to do the same. Fight these bills. Queer voices will be heard. Queer people will not be silenced.

Visit the Fight for the Future website, Bad Internet Bills, and sign their petitions. They provide prewritten emails for your lawmakers. There is an all-encompassing petition and separate ones for each of the dangerous bills, all of which I strongly encourage you sign.

a few days ago, I revived my years old hyperfixation. so what better way to keep it in memory than to make an AU based on it with my current special interest <-- has happened several times before

I present to you all: ttte atla AU! set in an era (or rather alternate universe) where the hundred year war didn't happen, the air nomads are still around, and the main conflict -- though it still came from the same source which is the fire nation -- is different now; which is a crazed nonbender scientist from the fire nation with a strong dislike for bending arts and having his own army of technology-boosted soldiers
