「30歳まで売れないとアイドルになれるらしい」 (from cherry magic volume 12 special edition) — english translation

#cherry magic #my translation #ok immediately massive disclaimer there was a bunch of idol fandom+music+fashion terms in here ive never heard of so stuff might be v wrong #pls have mercy i tried my best with whatever info i could find 🙏 #also another small t/n for a thing i Do know about . so on pg 4 kurosawa actually says '好きなんだよ' which has no object specifically #so the thing he says he likes depends wholly on context #since he says that straight up first it could be interpreted as him saying 'i like You' which is why adachi goes 'whuh???' and turns red- #-in the next panel for a second anyway before kurosawa clarifies that he means the songs #(but maybe he was backpedaling and was actually saying that he likes adachi at first . hmmmmm) #but yeah i couldnt find any good way to actually make that work in english so i thought ill have it in the tags at least #i wonder if sensei will continue this AU like she did wizardsawa that would be cool.... theres so much potential

WIP Wednesday

Thank you for the tag, @actualalligator (for the tease tuesday tag) @heartstringsduet @paperstorm @sznofthesticks @thisbuildinghasfeelings @carlos-in-glasses 💝

This is a morsel from an upcoming Tarlos fic, "The MovieCation of Carlos Reyes"

TK glanced over at Carlos. “Babe, we can turn this off if you want to”.

“I didn’t say that”. He pointed out.

“I know”. TK scooched closer. If TK had to be recuperating, he was glad that he only needed to have a boot that didn’t go past his knee. “But this is your movie watch,” TK pointed out as Carlos carefully pulled TK into his lap. “If you’re not into it, we can shut it off. You have the ultimate veto power”.

“I appreciate that, baby,” Carlos murmured, kissing TK on the forehead and lightly scratching his scalp. “And this isn’t going to be my favorite movie. But I want to finish it anyway”.

“Really?” TK brightened.

“Well, he’s gone through so much to get them to do the play,” Carlos said. “And now the ACLU is getting involved. I want to see how it turns out. But can I ask you one thing?”

“Of course”. TK nodded eagerly.

“Do they really sing the song he mentioned?” Carlos asked. “The… ‘Rock Me Sexy Jesus’ one?”

“Oh yeah”. TK laughed. “It’s catchy as hell. Is that what you’re objecting to?”

“Well, it feels very blasphemous”. Carlos mumbled. TK pecked his husband on the chin. He really was the cutest person in the world.

“You know,” TK said as he hit play on the remote, “this was directed by the guy who made Dick. And you liked Dick, right?”

“I could say I love Dick, babe,” Carlos growled low in his ear.

“I know,” TK rolled his eyes as Carlos’s hand started roaming. “That’s been well documented. I meant the movie Dick. You liked it”.

Carlos rolled his eyes. “You mean the movie you tricked me into watching by telling me Ryan Reynolds was in it and he appeared on screen for a grand total of two minutes?”

“Only because it was like his second movie ever,” TK protested. “And if I had told you it was about if two teenage girls were responsible for Watergate and bringing down Nixon, I didn’t think you would have gone for it. And besides,” he added, “it has Will Ferrell. Your distrust of Will Ferrell is well documented, too”.

“I didn’t mind him in The Other Guys”. Carlos countered. “He made a decent cop, at least”.

i'm. suddenly realizing the parallels between sada sacrificing herself for koraidon and florian throwing himself infront of kieran when he's about to get hit by terapagos's tera blast... after everything that happened in area zero, florian was determined to not be like sada. only to do something very similar to what she had done.

i think in that moment — when he's not sure what the end result of his actions will be, if he'll make it out of the underdepths alive — florian starts to understand her a little better. he thinks " oh, that's why she did that. because she didn't want to see something she loved hurt. "

#BIG DISCLAIMER FOR ANYONE NOT THAT FAR INTO THE STORY : this doesn't happen in canon #it's just what happens in my interpretation of the story i don't wanna cause any confusion! #florian makes it out alive obv and his view of sada is shifts slightly but he still wouldn't think highly of her #just knowing that she essentially abandoned arven to prioritize her goals is still enough to make him dislike her that didn't change #( unfortunately for him he's a lot more similar to her than he realizes and that's something he's gotta grapple with ) #this was supposed to be a post about florian having nightmares after the first expedition to area zero #but i changed course when i noticed this bc GOOD LORD #did ya'll know that florian wasn't originally meant to be the main protag in mjverse? #i just stumbled into making him my fave boi to have things happen to oops #i need to answer that ask i got about how florian got hit w/ the tera blast i really haven't gone into depth about it yet #pokemon #pkmn scarvio #hc : (pkmn) mjverse #chara : florian russel cavallari #mj.txt #sv dlc spoilers #indigo disk spoilers

Okay hear me out. What if Hornblower and Lady Barbara but they're high school math olympians and also have a crazy psychosexual rivalry with each other

#the vibes here are mean girls btw #high school academic competitions bring out insane behaviors and olympiads are even worse. and i want them to have that #lady barbara 'comes from a dynasty of math olympians and has 50x harvard legacy' wellesley #vs. horatia 'public school kid whose school has never even won a math competition but she's gonna win the fields medal' hornblower #(yeah she's trans. she's always trans she has to be trans in that book i'm sorry) #the rivalry never actually comes to anything. or they have like A Single Kiss and then are like what if we never talked about that again #it needs to be extremely early 00s teen girl movie coded. everything is subtext but they're both insane #anyways if anyone wants to write this go wild i have like 60 pages of final papers to get through first :( #perce rambles #percy yells at cecil scott #disclaimer: i did not do any olympiads. i know a couple of people who know people who did #i did however do trivia which does bring out similar behaviors i think #also sorry for making them american i just knew i'd make a hash of the british school system :// #tbh i think this would also just make a fun movie in general i think it's what the general public needs

i keep imagining the statehouse as this huge house in the middle of nowhere. the entire property is in the middle of a grassland—yellow-green grass that reaches up to your knees kind of grassland. the plains. and there's a fenced off backyard behind the statehouse, but not more than a few hundred feet after it there's a forest—a temperate deciduous forest, like you find in the eastern U.S., with a creek a little ways in. venture deeper and you'll find a river. there's a mountain backdrop as well, and you know they're huge mountains, but they're so far away they appear a little small.

the house itself is... queen anne meets folk victorian-ish. shades of golden brown and white. there's a paved road leading up to it and a parking lot off to the side, about the size of a decently sized high school parking lot. and the road ends at the house. if you keep driving the other way, though, you eventually make it to town. a fairly urban city, with your standard fast food joints and stores and gas stations and whatnot. it's not the heart of a metropolis, not the suburban edges of it, but a decently populated urban city with a freeway or two running through it. somehow, somewhere, after a bit of an elevation drop maybe, absolutely rural plains gives way to the city. blink and you'll miss it, except no matter what you do, you'll always miss it.

the thing is, i keep imagining the statehouse and the land surrounding it as this little pocket in time and space, that exists on vaguely the same line as where central time meets eastern. the states are immortal, and that's practically magic, so why can't the statehouse be magic as well?

#lynx rambles #wttt #wttsh #welcome to the table #welcome to the statehouse #disclaimers: i know nothing about architecture and did some quick google searches to come up with queen anne and folk victorian #also this is mostly the result of me trying to put the loose concept in my head into words #and trying to avoid having to put it in a particular region #since the start i have always had this idea that the statehouse was out in the country #but it also doesnt make sense to not put it in an urban area #but also this praire forest idea would NOT leave my head #afterthought: i realize this is more eastern u.s. based #and my excuse for that is that 80% of the U.S. population lives east of like the 99th meridian i think it is? #also i wrote this in the middle of the night so this may not make a lot of sense but thats fiiiiiiiine #i also do entertain the thought of like a TARDIS-style average suburban house thats normal on the outside but huge on the inside #and i love it and it matches up w the actual statehouse series #but like i said before . the praire-forest location would just NOT leave my head #this idea of some state just walking out the back door and continuing to walk thru the entire backyard and then jump the fence and then #Keep walking untl they reach the forest bc they need some time alone or theyre Super pissed off or something #does any of this even make sense . dont think about it too much #anyway. posts this and logs off

The rise of "let people enjoy things" is single handedly the backbone of the rise of anti intellectualism

#i need to talk about this #disclaimer : im beyond terrible at putting my point across #so with that being said let me attempt at it #let's take look at the hate and misogyny women receive for liking a certain genre of books #that is so often simply countered with let people enjoy things #but we cannot let that narrative take over a whole as if critical thinking is “bad”? #booktok has made it so that disliking a popular books makes you the person with the superiority complex who should just let people enjoy- #-things #but when did criticizing actively target audiences who like that peice of literature? When did that become the narrative? #its all mindless consumption without a second thought to the actual material which can easily be credited to the tropification of books #the enemies do turn into lovers and the best friends do fall in love 10 years down the line #classifying books into tropes and then fulfilling that promise gives books an illusion of being “good” since it checks those boxes- #-that the reader picked up the book for in the first place #the act of reading has kind of been substituted by the act of being a reader and just owning stacks of books #we have turned away from any form of analysis or criticism #if it scratches the itch then its automatically the perfect book without further thought #i cant help but contribute the mere existence of that “itch” to how mordern books are classified into tropes with set plotlines #intelligenctualism is almost always looked at as elitism #reading only classics doesn't make you an intellectual individual but looking at any book with a critical lens may it be a classic or a rom #-com does #criticizing certain aspects of your absolute favorite books is intellectualism and not bullying people who like anything but classics #that distinction is so far lost in translation that talking about how a popular book is objectively bad is being a “hater” #well then im a hater #this is not a hate post for people who actively enjoy booktock or the more popular books #im just trying to introduce any amount of nuance into the conversation thats all #i can honestly go on forever but i think ill end my ranting here #literary criticism #literature #books #anti intellectualism

examining a seemingly normal image only to slowly realize the clear signs of AI generated art.... i know what you are... you cannot hide your true nature from me... go back where you came from... out of my sight with haste, wretched and vile husk

#BEGONE!!! *wizard beam blast leaving a black smoking crater in the middle of the tumblr dashboard* #I think another downside to everyone doing everything on phone apps on shitty tiny screens nowadays is the inability to really see details #of an image and thus its easier to share BLATANTLY fake things like.. even 'good' ai art has pretty obvious tells at this point #but especially MOST of it is not even 'good' and will have details that are clearly off or lines that dont make sense/uneven (like the imag #of a house interior and in the corner there's a cabinet and it has handles as if it has doors that open but there #are no actual doors visible. or both handles are slightly different shapes. So much stuff that looks 'normal' at first glance #but then you can clearly tell it's just added details with no intention or thought behind it. a pattern that starts and then just abruptly #doesn't go anywhere. etc. etc. ) #the same thing with how YEARS ago when I followed more fashion type blogs on tumblr and 'colored hair' was a cool ''''New Thing''' instead #of being the norm now basically. and people would share photos of like ombre hair designs and stuff that were CLEARLY photoshop like #you could LITERally see the coloring outside of the lines. blurs of color that extend past the hair line to the rest of the image #or etc. But people would just share them regardless and comment like 'omg i wish I could do this to my hair!' or 'hair goallzzzz!! i #wonder what salon they went to !!' which would make me want to scream and correct them everytime ( i did not lol) #hhhhhhggh... literally view the image on anything close to a full sized screen and You Will SEe #I don't know why it's such a pet peeve of mine. I think just as always I'm obsessed with the reality and truth of things. most of the thing #that annoy me most about people are situations in which people are misinterpreting/misunderstanding how something works or having a misconc #eption about somehting thats easily provable as false or etc. etc. Even if it's harmless for some random woman on facebook to believe that #this AI generated image of a cat shaped coffee machine is actually a real product she could buy somewhere ... I still urgently #wish I could be like 'IT IS ALL AN ILLUSION. YOU SEE???? ITS NOT REALL!!!!! AAAAA' hjhjnj #Like those AI shoes that went around for a while with 1000000s of comments like 'omg LOVE these where can i get them!?' and it's like YOU #CANT!!! YOU CANT GET THEM!!! THEY DONT EXIST!!! THE EYELETS DONT EVEN LINE UP THE SHOES DONT EVEN #MATCH THE PATTERNS ARE GIBBERISH!! HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE THEY ARE NOT REAL!??!!' *sobbing in the rain like in some drama movie* #Sorry I'm a pedantic hater who loves truth and accuracy of interpretation and collecting information lol #I think moreso the lacking of context? Like for example I find the enneagram interesting but I nearly ALWAYS preface any talking about it #with ''and I know this is not scientifically accurate it's just an interesting system humans invented to classify ourselve and our traits #and I find it sociologically fascinating the same way I find religion fascinating'. If someone presented personality typing information wit #out that sort of context or was purporting that enneagram types are like 100% solid scientific truth and people should be classified by the #unquestionaingly in daily life or something then.. yeah fuck that. If these images had like disclaimers BIG in the image description somewh #re like 'this is not a real thing it's just an AI generated image I made up' then fine. I still largely disagree with the ethics behind AI #art but at least it's informed. It's the fact that people just post images w/o context or beleive a falsehood about it.. then its aAAAAAA

I used to watch Anne Reardon videos religiously but now I think she hates fun

#why did she have to make a video 'debunking' nilereds 100% pure cookie experiment #full disclaimer i have not watched this video #or any video of hers since she published it #but why did she make it in the first place #like first off you dont 'debunk' the scientific process #and second off clearly nilered knew when he started that there was a chance his cookie would be shit #and then confirmed it through experimentation #it didnt put anyone in danger; nilered is very clear that randos shouldnt imitate his experiments #most people cant afford to anyway #and even if they did this one wasnt dangerous. it was just crappy overanalyzed baking #anyone who looks at that and goes 'i need to publicly debunk this' hates fun

For Drals : 12 and 42.

Tell us everything <3

What’s something that makes them laugh every single time? Be specific!

I had to think about this one, because he's someone who puts on a really stoic face and often has a hard time finding joy in things. however, EVERYONE has something that will make them laugh.

anything that makes Kem (his cringefail watchling buddy) squirm. this includes daedric gore, herbal smells, steam or smoke - if Kem is grossed out, it will make Drals chuckle.

he's a pretty Learned dude, but every now and then Azandar will use a word he's never heard before and it will baffle him to the point of having to laugh about it.

the word "stringent". he just thinks it's so... spongy.

If invited to a TED Talk, what topic would they present on? What would the title of their presentation be?

OK SO in my fic I did make a reference to a dissertation he wrote when he was a Telvanni master, on "temporal resurfacing". As for what that actually is; it's sort of technobabble for what I imagine would be the mathematics behind a lot of the more complex magics relating to time & fate. To "resurface" would be to sand down a process to its bare essentials, therefore simplifying the math needed when adding multiple processes on top of the groundwork. Before his fall into Apocrypha, it was absolutely something he gave lectures on. (they were likely pretty boring and had poor attendance, however)

I think if he were to revisit the topic now he'd call it something more fun like "Temporal Resurfacing: How We Can Learn Mathematics from Mycelium"

#yans stuff #dralvayn arano #THANK U this was super interesting to do <3 #disclaimer that I am NOT a booksmarts guy so if none of that makes any sense don't come for me LOL #i think the closest real world equivalent of what drals' skillset is is probably like. nuclear physicist #like a lot of the work he did (pre- becoming an arcanist) was really complex & dangerous with a lot of math and alchemy involved #but it was also very behind-the-scenes and underappreciated and often uncredited #which to be clear he preferred it that way at the time. he liked being left alone to his menial tasks

[dreamlandiasims]

hi, i'm not jewish and wouldn't want to speak over anyone, but from my perspective maybe removing plot points that could parallel blood libel and adding more that parallel the anti capitalist angle could be a good start.

removing the eternal youth angle and emphasizing how the power of the companies hinges on exploiting the working conditions of workers instead of experiments on them could be an option? also a character being a class traitor could potentially weaken parallels to power being "birth right" of the secret society imo. there's also always an option to demystify the conspiracy by showing that this current route sounds more interesting, but that the truth is just capitalism and even though it doesn't sounds as exciting it's still very scary.

Ok yeah this is pretty much what I’ve been thinking so far! Thank you for your input :)

As a start I’m planning to remake the Reddit pages and relevant dialogue from the last post to be more “agnos is a major corporation that’s trying to monopolize the market and they’re engaging in shady business practices to be at the forefront of tech and medicine development (at the expense of their workers/sub-companies).”

I think similarly, the focus on the alien tech could be more of a commentary on “how far are we willing to go in the name of science and advancement”, and I’ll definitely cut out the “eternal youth” aspect.

I’m hoping that this is enough to redirect the narrative that the story is establishing, but if anyone feels otherwise please let’s continue the conversation!

#for the suggestions that I didn’t touch on directly in this response - that’s largely already my plan #and I don’t want to give away too much plot rn lol #also I did want to throw out the disclaimer that I’m not trying to make some profound anti-capitalism commentary with this story #I happen to be very anti-capitalist #and so when I picture the ‘villain’ of my story my mind goes right away to billionaires and major corporations #but I’m not intending any of this to be the central message of the story! #I will be back with an update on the changes I make to the post as soon as I’m able!

HELLO ANNIE oh shit that was in all caps, anyways! what got you into forensics? I wanna change my major soooo bad like you did but im literally in my junior year ALSO youre the epitome of standing on business, love you (ay it back or else!)

Hi there, thank you for the question! I think it was just a curiosity I’ve had in the back of my mind since middle school, but I didn’t think I’d ever get a chance to look into it at all, what with my extensively planned out life. But when I ended up at Greendale, completely out of my element with no foreseeable future… I decided to just have some fun! “Go with the flow”, if you will. It took me a while to work up the confidence to change majors, but ultimately I think it was worth it. I really love forensics, and I think that if you believe it’ll be good for you then you should change too. I really have no idea what it means for you, but choosing to pursue a genuine interest of mine, one that hadn’t been written down on every page slid in front of me since childhood, was one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself.

So, do whatever you feel is best — and I love you too ♡

#ask annie! #community nbc #nbc community #(disclaimer i am in HIGH SCHOOL and do not advocate for any actual important education decisions to be made due to my influence) <- ooc #(i don’t think the advice of a gimmick blog would really be that persuasive but. never the less skdjdkdkdk) #(anyways this one was rly heartfelt but i thought on it for a while and why annie /did/ choose forensics) #(and i always love reflecting on her growth throughout the series) #(so i think her choosing a major for fun was actually very important and it makes me smile to think about <3)

turns out when you invest a huge amount of time learning details about a media you eventually reach a point where you stop being able to enjoy a significant number of jokes that other fans will make - this does not make you superior to these other fans, it mostly just makes you annoying (this is a vague post about myself)

#N posts stuff #disclaimer at the end so no one thinks i'm being passive aggressive about something i've seen lol #ANYWAY sorry that joke about how alex would have liked twitch wasn't funny to me; unfortunately i'm intimately aware of the fact that #after jay stole his cameras he stopped filming himself doing anything full stop #presumably because when jay stole his cameras he also stole and then uploaded footage of alex committing a murder #and alex was like 'hm. maybe i shouldn't allow that to happen again' and then he didn't #he's the only dude in s3 without any POV footage bc he does not have a camera anymore lol #also alex never intended to upload any footage of himself; he's the Only guy in the series who never did that nor intended to #brian had his own channel and tim would upload for jay when jay couldn't but alex didn't post shit anywhere #he even makes fun of jay for doing it lol. i'm aware that this is super obnoxious of me that's why no rb lmfao

[mixelation]

Not sure if that post is about hp but it does feel like it lol. I understand people wanting to offer alternatives and I myself have a complicated relationship with it, but I wouldn't expect people to necessarily fall in love with alternatives I give them the same way they fell in love with hp.

post in question

HP definitely get this a lot. GoT got this a lot too while it was airing. I've seen it to a lesser extent with same smaller fandoms-- Twilight, for example. All of these series have their problems, in terms of quality, writers/showrunners doing weird shit, and things that make you go hmm within the narrative. But they didn't get massively popular by accident, and whatever drew you in probably isn't something as shallow as "I like magic schools" or "I like vampire romances." So when people are like, "oh, but you can just read THIS instead," as opposed to just "here's some vampire romance novels you could also try," then it's sort of like.... no, not every vampire book is interchangeable? Why are you acting like it is, and like whatever people are getting out of X should automatically also exist in Y?

Also, while we're here, "you're a bad person if you engage with this fandom, and you should only engage with morally-approved media" is actually one of the worst takes this website has churned out. Let's take GoT as an example that's less likely to get me hatemail (although one of my favorite games is looking up the URLs of people who post about how even looking at a HP fic means you are directly donating to bigoted causes and then seeing how long I have to scroll before OP talks about a Disney-owned fandom). GoT has some excellent, complicated female characters. It also has a lot of hypersexualized nudity and gratuitous sexual assault. On lists of "alternative" shows, I would frequently see Netflix's The Witcher. If you haven't seen The Witcher, here's what happens in episode one: the MC meets a complicated female character who wants to kill her rapist. The MC refuses to "pick a side" between her and her rapist. He sleeps with her. Then the woman is killed by the MC. If you were trying to point someone at a high fantasy TV show with dark themes that "treats its women right", why the fuck did you pick The Witcher? Is it because you don't know how to analyze media and just look for a laundry list of Bad Things, like actual on-screen sexual assault? Do you not understand why people were mad about all the sexual assault on a thematic level? Like, okay! You found some obvious bad stuff in GoT, good job! Every other piece of media will have its own Bad Stuff, and it's up to individuals to decide what crosses their own personal lines (which YOU DO NOT GET TO DECIDE) when picking what content they consume.

#full disclaimer that i did enjoy netflix witcher #i just think that if your issue with GOT was who the women were treated.... well #yen's entire character is that she gave up her womb to be conventionally attractive and now desperately wants to have a baby #like i know this is because the show was working from deeply sexist source material but in attempting to make this part of her character #more ~feminist~ it's mostly just incomprehensible #but i like a woman who dresses in dope black dresses and does insane magic shit. so sue me #inb4 someone is like 'the situation with renfri was more complicated than that--' #the story was still explicitly set up so that the MC murders a rape victim trying to get revenge on her rapist and the rapist goes free #you could have picked ANY OTHER CONFLICT and probably gotten a more interesting story out of it to boot

that reminds me, have you ever seen how weird they got about stimboards on tiktok? fucking wild

#luka 🦐 #bf who cares (more than me) aboutt this topic take it away: #first of all stimboards don't make sense in a video format #which is why many people started complaining that stimboards don't even follow their theme #tumblr stimboards are really just gifsets of whatever visual stims a person want to see often linked to a specific aesthetic character etc #this works on tumblr bc you can put it in a 3x3 grid the very middle being a picture of your theme to tie it all together #or just another gif if you didn't have a theme #ofc it doesn't 'fit the theme' you're consuming it in an inferior way #second - people started making ''unsafe'' stimboards (with jumpscares and possibly paranoia-inducing statements) #(or something I've never seen any) #this was only really a problem because people were being disingenuous about it and labeling them as 'safe /srs' #side note: do not fucking misuse tone tags on purpose that defeats the entire point you asshole #which actually did spawn a debate about whether it was okay to misuse tone tags as part of the joke/whatever #it's not. ty for coming to my ted talk #so then for a bit we had people posting 'unsafe' stimboards and labeling them safe and deleting any comments correcting that #it got to the point where people came up with heart colour emoji codes to sneakily say whether it was actually safe or not #even now there's a lot of stimboards on tiktok with a 'not babying' disclaimer #bc I guess someone decided stimboards are babying autistic people (and decided that for every autistic person ever ofc [sarcastic]) #anyway the whole thing is bonkers #moral or the story stay away from tiktok #: thank you for that #any typos are *not* being fixed because we are *not* typing all that again
