#I swear people can't read

[zeroducks-2]

CW: me complaining about comicbook takes and being generally a bitch.

I have no problem with "bad comicbook takes" in the sense that I'm all for leaving the interpretation of what happened to the readers. That's part of why I tend not to argue with people that say shit like that Jason is wrong to be angry at Bruce. Like, ok. I disagree with you, and I will roll my eyes back into my skull, but that's still just an opinion you know?

Like imagine tomorrow someone said that Joker was right for killing Jason and maiming Barbara because Jay and Babs are annoying, and they deserved it anyway. It would be a batshit nonsense take but still someone's opinion, and I don't... Really argue with opinions? Or anyway I try not to. Think what you will, I have my bonkers opinion on things as well so yeah I get it. There is no "correct way" to experience a story anyway.

What really gets me is when someone reads a comics in which Thing happens, and then will go around saying that "actually Thing did not happen yall are just stupid lol lmao".

You want an example, I know you do.

"Dick is not the person who made Damian Robin, so Tim should not be angry at Dick for that. He should actually be angry at Alfred."

Do you are have stupid. What in the reading comprehension why is this something people are saying. I genuinely don't understand if everyone's just trolling or what.

Yes, Alfred very gently suggests that Damian should be Robin. But:

1 Alfred does not make decisions for the "family", he never has, that's not his role. Alfred exists to babysit and provide a wise word of advice to Batman (and Dick at that point in time IS BATMAN). Alfred has no decisional power over who gets to wear this or that mantle, that's Batman's decision when it comes to his sidekicks (save some exceptions of people doing whatever the fuck they wanted to like Steph or Red Hood Jason, but they still had to fight Batman's autorithy anyway).

2: Alfred suggests this and then Dick is the one who agrees, implements and enforces it. Dick takes away Robin from Tim, because it's on him as Batman to rule over these things. If Dick didn't want to do this he would have simply said "no Alfred the kid can't be Robin" and left everything as it was, but Dick instead heard the suggestion and decided to follow it.

ALFRED DID NOT MAKE DAMIAN ROBIN AND I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS NEEDS TO BE SAID.

"Tim's parents are not abusive, it's a fanon thing"

Okay this partially goes into the opinion category but it needs to be said. Tim's parents were absent for the most part of Tim's life, and that is pretty fucking abusive. Tim wasn't beaten down within an inch of his life by his father or whatever, but dude still ignored him, squandered the family money and then demanded to have a relationship with his son where Tim was emotionally open and available to his father, only then he found a new partner and went back to treating Tim like shit and ignoring him.

All of this is hella abusive and yall need to learn that abuse doesn't only mean beating someone up. Stop fucking say Tim's father was an angel I am going to set shit on fire.

Thanks to @teenwerewoofs for inspiring the fic idea! The only downside is that my turnaround time for writing is apparently 1.5 years <3

The Long Game Steter | 17k | T

“Okay, Peter, it’s you and me, bud,” he jokes. “Fine,” Peter replies at once. “Huh. That was…fast. You got no objections to walking me down the aisle, creeperwolf?” “Why not?” Peter gives a lazy shrug, like he really could not care less about this stupid joke. He lays his head back down and closes his eyes. Right back to feigning his little nap. “See you in eight years.” Mostly as a joke, Stiles arranges a marriage pact with Peter. The only thing is, he can’t stop thinking about it after.

#steter #steter fic #mine #this is a fic where i expect people who've read anything i've ever written to be nodding along the whole time #like once you get past the intro it'll become 'ah yes i'm seeing all some familiar tropes and themes lmao' #like...'we're just friends i swear!' #stiles being oblivious af #also i can't believe i've only written one other fic with mild to moderate relationship sabotage #i just love this kind of premise sm and i'll write it forever

I know that certain Jason fans have a real bone to pick with the take from "The Adventures Continue" since they went with him being a violent Robin who went rogue because he was one of those people who care more about vengeance than justice (ironically making him act quite a bit like Steph did as Robin), but I really appreciate that they took a moment to call out this part of the issue, which most Jason stories pretend isn't a factor.

Bruce's no-kill rule isn't just about his personal code it's about maintaining a good reputation and a good relationship with the people he needs to support his cause. The more unhinged and aggressive he (and his associates) get, the less Gordon can justify keeping him around.

I just, appreciate that acknowledgement.

#also I just think their take on Jason is interesting #not as morally complex as the original UtRH but overall more consistent especially if he stays a villain for a while #I've only read season 1 though so we'll see how the other three pan out #their take on Jean-Paul Valley is also very fun #and I swear there's a panel somewhere of Deathstroke saying 'I have a way with young people' but I can't find the digital version #and it cracks me up because jeez... what a creepy thing for Slade Wilson specifically to say #batman the adventures continue #batman the animated series #batman #robin #dc comics #bruce wayne #jason todd

#the boys #queen maeve #homelander #william butcher #soldier boy #ryan butcher #ill probably regret this #I was just gonna gif her face #but I like this scene because it's basically the most powerful supes alive all together #and we had so few scenes of maeve actually getting involved in the fights that even this is something #and i love that look between maeve and butcher #even though I genuinely don't understand what those looks mean #I've gotten so much better at reading people's faces and emotions #But I swear i can't this time even though i've watched this 1000 times #i guess it has to do with not wanting to hurt ryan but yeah idk #yeah this became a rambling sorry #anyway #my gifs #maeve

Hmm I apologize again for the rant !

It is not the first time I am doing it. I might forgot to put "please don't tag it as ship" under my drawing of tighnari cyno. Please, do not !

I love them as best friend, I love them as brother/found family, I don't mind the queerplatonic relationship at all

But their romantic side make me pretty uncomfortable. No hate ! It is my own taste.

Shippers are always welcomed and I am so glad you like my content 💕 but all my art concerning them (unless I tag the ship) are purely platonic. I just ask for some respect of my taste and not reblog my art with the ship tag.

I don't want to block, because I am genuinely glad you enjoy my work and as a young artist, it means a lot for me. Thank you so much 🙇 !! But as a human, I can't deny how uneasy it makes me feel.

Thank you for understanding !

#rant #I blame nobody #i am clearly not used to block ): I should tho but I know those who tag ship are not mean at all </3 #it is fine if you don't know. #but i saw people reblogging my art with shiptag even if i said “do not” #my art is like my only safe place please respect it #this ship is so popular and I clearly stop to interact with the fandom because of that #i clearly ignore when I saw one in my timeline /dashboard becausz I can't do nothinf against it except masking the account #but I beg you. not. under. my. post. #not in my DM #why i feel obligated to justify myself 😭 #but yeah !!! the ship is valid and full of greenflag !! wholesome !! #but I only enjoy them platonically !!! please respect 😭😭😭 I SWEAR I AM DESESPERATE WHY IT IS SO HARD FOR SOME TO RESPECT THAT OMG #gosh on twitter someone said me “ignore ??? what did you expect ??? it is the most popular ship” #I AM TRYING I AM LITERALLY NOT SEARCHING FOR FANART 😀 #feeding myself with my own food #that's why I am so grateful for people who support me. thank you. 😭 #and how could I ignore a comment under my post ??? interaction are so important for me I read everything #ANYWAY SORRY FOR RANTING !!! IT IS CLEARLY A /NOTMEAN POST !!! #next time I won't forgrt “do not tag it as ship” #but urgh if I do this I have to do in every post ???? 🤨 #and what if I draw tighnari cyno kaveh but I don't mind ship with kaveh ??? 🤨🤨🤨 (plz still don't) #tHERE IS PLENTY OF CYN0N4RI ACCOUNT IF YOU WISH TO SEE MORE CONTENT OF THEM !! Please support them <<3 mine are platonic ! #but clearly. imagine you are obsessive about two characters <<3 #but their popular ship is the one who make you the most uncomfy 😀 #so you decided to just stop looking at fanart and not bothering anyone 👍👍 #but it came under your post and your DM 😟 #AAA SORRY I AM SALTY I SWEAR I AM NOT USED TO FEEL LIKE THIS ):< #anyway plz take care ilove you mwah 🥺🥺🥺🥺💕💕

am periodically reminded of the fact that people see charden entirely different than me and i get scared, like who are these guys. that's not who lives in my head.

#ada speaks #OKAY #i swear to god its like being hit by a truck every single time i go on personality database to read what people fuckin say about den #like. you're wrong. sorry you think he's actually this way. if you can't see his core you can't extrapolate. #specifically his insecurities and the kind of avoidant behaviour this causes #but. whatever. i guess. #i thought chardennies were more insane than this but ig it's the same as mcdn where #either you have whump enjoyers inflicting dennis on the other character #or you have people who woobify den to an insane degree #theres. very little inbetween. #i will retreat into my bubble once again

sneak peak of somethin..... i've never had an oc designed by someone else so i did a little design trade with a cool person on twitter - this is the thang i designed for them <:^) just waitin on their approval. thumbs up.

#my art #wip #i'm actually so excited to have an oc made by someone else. saw the wip they sent and started doing cartwheels (in my head) #and i think it's even more fun that it's gonna be my ONE design by someone else. i think i'm capping it at one just to keep them special #anyway what i'm working on: character pages/ref sheet things for ricky mendel coltarch mockley and maybe mika/heidi #aka preparing for art fight lol.....am i excited....? perhaps.....perhaps..... #and probably other things i forgor about. and an extra bonus thing for two people i traded with. if you're reading i will get to it i swear #going to a food faire tomorrow. £20 entry hahahahahahahahahaha but we carry on regardless #i'm so glad food is good like thank you life for making food so good. i can't wait to spend abother £20 on food tomorrow

women will literally accuse women and esp lesbian circles of "not unpacking ""man-hating""" alleged ""misandry" sweetie xo" getting offended ppl aren't appropriately uplifting how "men are amazing and awesome and attractive and i won't be shamed for thinking so" as if appreciating men is a real counter opinion than blame whatever gave women of every sexuality instance to be jaded weary cautious and tired and who'll complain every now and then and continue on with her life until she dies putting up with patriarchy. just welcome to the "woke" internet where misogyny's over and "man-hate" "shamed for not hating men" is worth springing to defences for

yeah i've only seen people talk like men's rights activists and think they're being unbelievably progressive on tumblr it's kind of fascinating. like i can see how seeing people hate on men could mess with people and stuff but you can't demand men appreciation posts that's literally the whole world outside of idk your tumblr dash (or even on your tumblr dash because fandom misogyny from people who think they're not misogynistic at all is really something). men get praised for "babysitting" their own kids like be serious? it's very let men be masculine

i don't think being like men are soooo gross and we hate them is actually constructive and it can definitely veer into transphobia (you'll always be a man/"a male" and thus a danger to women/why would you ever want to become a man they're the enemy and the bane of society etc) and homophobia relatively quickly?

but the way people ON TUMBLR ""combat that"" is often so off to me like if the most basic feminist principles offend you then i'm not really sure where to go from here. i remember seeing a post that was like "men aren't your enemy. they're your friend/brother/father/colleague/neighbor" with a lot of notes and like i don't know how to tell you this but that's literally who's most likely to harm a woman, the men she knows?😭 and obviously not every system of oppression is exactly the same but would you say the same thing to someone criticizing white people like...just very weird

i think women who are attracted to men and dating them making jokes about how they only tolerate being attracted to men because they have no choice and especially the whole i'm bi so i love every woman and only find 1 in a 1000 men attractive (very often said while in a relationship with a man) thing is obnoxious and annoying for like everyone who has to hear it lmao but also when women who date men make jokes about it (not about them being ugly or unattractive or whatever but about them being bad partners in general) it's like. what else are they going to do like you said they're gonna endure patriarchy for the rest of their lives and as girlfriends/wives/mothers they go through the most it's very bleak? idk. it's not like you can date a better man yourself out of patriarchy

of course men aren't a all as bad as the worst guy you can imagine and they're not all out to get you or whatever but saying things like "men don't all benefit from the patriarchy rich men benefit from the patriarchy but jake, 23, is not oppressing you" is like. kind of insane. jake, 14, was oppressing me like have you never interacted with boys in school😭 and it's not like it was entirely their fault we all have to outgrow misogyny it's just you know society etc but some of them never outgrow it lmao and just...the takes you see on feminism on tumblr are astounding i hate it here

#and like i do think that young guys who feel bad about themselves only having people who make them feel worse and who actively make them #worse like incels and idk youtube algorithms to turn to is a problem but like. again it's the same thing as white people who feel bad about #being white to me in a way like are women and GIRLS supposed to coddle them and say it's gonna be okay you're great even when they're #like actually harming them by being misogynistic to them? that's already what they're taught to do always #the notes on that male loneliness epidemic post i reblogged a few weeks ago still haunt me like OH MY GOD #and if you think misogyny isn't as prevalent anymore you're very naive. and probably misogynistic yourself #i'm not even sure young men being more feminist is true (well it's probably true when you compare it to like the 50s) but even #when men ARE like yeah women shouldn't have to do everything i can help with chores (the use of the word help is already a red flag lmao) #when you look at what they actually do they still do way less like i don't have links because these are tags on a tumblr ask but i read #somewhere that men think chores are 50/50 when they're only doing like 30% of the work? like it just seems hopeless #sometimes i'm happy and then i think about the mental load #sorry for not uplifting men 24/7 you can just hang out on the steve harrington tag or something there's actually a lot of people doing that #when someone said um does the ronance fandom not seem terfy to you...because of a post that was like can the lesbian ship ronance #be about the lesbian ship ronance not about steve A MAN #like you can't make this up #i meant it when i said the average tumblr user would benefit from being exposed to more misogyny like i swear they forget it's even a thing #like obviously they wouldn't BENEFIT from it lmao but their posts wouldn't be as dumb and that would benefit me🙏 #ask

[byzantine-suggestions]

They literally just slapped a blurry picture of a runway model on the cover of this audiobook. Amazing

I'm assuming they straight up stole this image, because it's a professional photograph taken at Dolce & Gabbana fashion show. I doubt the creators of these outfits intended for any of these pictures to be used as historically accurate representations of real Byzantine empresses

#I'm sorry this blog is so Theodora-centric but you can't deny that Theodora attracts the most absurdity out of anyone ever #people are uniquely deranged about her I swear to god #anyway the clothes are from Dolce & Gabbana's Fall 2013 ready to wear collection #if you were wondering #(it slaps. it's inspired by Sicilian cathedrals) #also the audiobook is Stella Duffy's Actress Empress Whore. not one of my favorites but better written than a lot of other Theodora Novels #although I can't vouch for the audiobook specifically because I read the ebook instead

I read the French Revolution from my history book (i am in class 9) and i am speechless...

Cus of..

Who tf crowned Louis XVI on the throne of france and who tf made him marry Marie Antoinette? Cuz like....HE WAS FUCKING 20 OMFG

Marie had a hairstyle like...see for yourself bhai log...

Like...wtf!? She is kinda hot tho but her hairstyle is vahiyaad se bhi vahiyaad

Marie Antoinette used to cheat on her husband...can't blame her tho he was too fat and ugly

Aah yes how can we forget the one who ruled and instead made a 'reign of terror' the legendry coward himself...MAXIMILIAN ROBESPIERRE

Behnchod was such a coward that he guillotined anyone and everyone.

Good thing these three a-holes and cowards were guillotined lol.

#french revolution #marie antoinette #louis xvi #maximilien robespierre #they were such cowards i swear to god #the people used to be stupid too bit can't blame them #bhai sahab bachiye mujhe #this was rly random lol #idk i am just rly good in history i jist read it once and wrote this shizz lol

[novelconcepts]

i don't make resolutions, but if i did

it would be to finish this fic

(and to be kind to myself for however long it takes to actually do so)

#i'm finishing it if it kills me #i know i've been writing this makeout scene for 3 weeks but baby that can't last forever #if we want to get deep and dark and serious for a second i do think a lot of my struggles to write lately have to do with engagement #and how incredibly low engagement has been on the last few things i've written #which like. is what it is. i'm not entitled to anybody's time or comments or kudos. #but when you write stuff you're proud of and it feels like it's barely getting read it's hard to keep momentum. #this isn't intended as a woe is me or whatever it's just kind of like. there. hovering. #happens enough times you start to wonder if it's you. am i just writing for the wrong fandom/ship? #(too bad if so. they're in my bones i'm writing for them and no one can stop me.) #but yeah. if you ever wonder if authors do care or notice about hits. comments. kudos. buddy i am here to tell you #not only do we care and FLOURISH we also notice when those things drop off and readers vanish #and it is a giant bummer. and sometimes makes us wildly paranoid about why that might have happened. #so if you liked a fic today--not even one of mine. just. anybody's. share it. comment on it. #kudos at the VERY least (cuz frankly kudos is there to be an 'i got to the end and this was nice' feature. #so when you get 500 hits and only like 30 kudos? it feels like 470 of those people hated your work) #anyway. that got out of hand. lil' too raw lil' too honest. happens when you let yourself ramble at 11:30 instead of sleeping #to sum: let your local fic writer know if they've made you happy #and as we go into 2024 i am swearing to myself that this fic (and probably several others) are getting finished #come hell. high water. or dishearteningly low engagement numbers. #(and then maybe we...actually work on something original. cuz why not. new year same old me but i'll do my best.)

[kyouka-supremacy]

do you have any fave skk fics? im new to the fandom and would love to read some!!!

I'm so sorry, I don't, I've never read a single skk fic in my life 😭😭😭

Please someone recommend some good skk fics to Anon in the notes!!!

#I can suggest sskk authors I enjoy I know have written at least one skk centered fic such as why_cant_turtles_fly‚ lizandre‚ hybridsunshine #but I can't recommend any fic because I've never read any 😭😭😭 #I can't believe Anon caught like the ONLY not skk blog on bsd Tumblr like what were the chances??????? #That's so unfortunate I swear. Anon ask literally anyone else and you'll probably have better luck #skk #bsd #people asks me stuff

sakamoto days nagumo.... he's so cutie... so scrimbly... want to pick him up by his scruff like he is a small cat

#he's literally a meow meow #(he has murdered several people) #I can't believe it's taken me this long to read sakamoto days #I remember when it first came out and I saw it on shonen jump and I was like #that looks.... kinda lame #like I thought it was chill slice of life PFFT #but then I saw someone post a panel from it on twitter that looked so sick and I went... wait...... #finally had the time to start reading and it's so good I swear #it's also the first time in a while I've thought about collecting the physical volumes because the volume covers are so sick #thinking the most not appropriate things about nagumo's tattoos

hate when ppl talk about touko from bloom into you like she was pressuring yuu into having feelings for her when she was literally doing the opposite? she wanted yuu to NOT have feelings for her lmao

#touko is no saint but i swear some ppl read yagakimi with their eyes closed lol #i am a little too passionate about yagakimi cause it's very important to me #like yes their dynamic is not healthy at first but the whole story is about it becoming healthy #yuu stands her ground and is like actually no touko you can't go on pretending to be your dead sister and having me as stress relief #"learn to love yourself bitch #and touko is like shocked pikachu face and then does as she's told #and in turn yuu is like wait a second why do i even care i'm not in love with her because i haven't felt this grand world shattering feeling #and she's like hold up... just because my love doesn't manifest that way doesn't mean it's not love... #actually now that i think about it i've been choosing touko time and time again from the start #love is not only about circumstance but about making that choice to be with the person you love again and again #anyway i think that yagakimi is very neat #and i think some people see it through a way more malicious lense than it was intended to be #which is fine too like interpret it however you want #i understand this view especially if you went into via someone recommending it as completely wholesome girls falling in love story #but it does bug me a little #also i like having wlw romance that is not completely saccharine #bloom into you #yagakimi #my post

see this is why I can’t do tiktok, I need to be able to freely say that my immune system is going to murder my thyroid eventually, I can’t switch to “unalive” or clinical terminology

#if you say that for funsies then live your life and have fun #I can't deal with the mandatory aspect #I'm an adult I want to be able to swear and talk about life and death without writing d3@th #also shoutout to doctors who actually tell you how your disease is going to end up long-term #interestingly I'm now reading an article on how there's a new theory #that some people have hashimoto's symptoms even when treating the hypothyroidism #because it's not just a hypothyroidism reaction but also a reaction to the autoimmune inflammation #so some people are positing that the cure is to just take it out #which is interesting #I know one of my nodules is already pretty beat to shit and I don't think I've had this for that long
