#LIKE YK WHAT I'M SAYING??

[collieii]

someone probably said this already but in spiderverse i think it's interesting how when pavitr was first introduced everyone thought something bad was gonna happen to him bc of how confident and optimistic he was. and then in the actual movie we see that something bad was supposed to happen to him (police chief dying!) but it doesn't! miles stops it! and miguel berates miles for this, says it's going to cause the universe to collapse or whatever.

there's this idea that tragedy is inherent to spidermans growth, and while it's true that some spiderpeople learn important lessons through loss, no one stops to ask, is it really necessary? yeah, maybe the chief was supposed to die. but why does spiderman have to be formed through tragedy? why do we (as heroes) have to let people die? pavitr didn't lose anyone, and he's still a good spiderman! maybe, if he doesn't suffer, he'll end up better off for it!

so while miguel is arguing for all this big picture stuff about saving the multiverse he's lost sight of what it really means to be a spiderman, he's not looking out for the real individual people. yeah it's just one person who would die, but that one person means something to someone. shrugging and saying "stuff just sucks sometimes, we can't do anything about it" is the opposite of what superheroes do. pretty obviously, miles arc is also a reflection of the struggles people face in real life, working within unequal systems, where it's easy to shrug and say "that's just the way it is" and not ask "but why does it need be this way? can't we do something about it?"

miguel is arguing that you can't have your cake and eat it too. presumably, miles and co. are going to find a way to get around that and change things for the better (and maybe that's why miles has that line about two cakes in the advisors office!)

#across the spiderverse #across the spider verse spoilers #break from my regularly scheduled trigun posting for spider posting #i'm actually kinda eh on the idea of the canon and police chiefs dying it is not my favorite plot point #but like any sane person i love spiderverse so #actually still think i like the first one more but wroaw much to think about #spiderverse #atsv #.lieii #i only watched the movie once so hopefully this is all accurate #i feel like this is all really obvious my point was like #pavitr being an example of a spiderperson who is still successful without going through all these awful things #and you think despite all this stuff about the multiverse how does he feel about the chief being saved? hes probably rly grateful right? #i mean maybe something terrible will happen to him in the next movie but. yk what im saying #.lieii txt

[croakings]

i apologize for mithrunposting incessantly but honestly if any of you expected better of me you shouldn't have

anyway i get it and some of the failguy jokes are funny. i can tell that nothing i've run into is even malicious. but also it would be really cool and awesome if there were simply less posts calling a disabled person a failure or baby or a dog or whatever for needing accommodation or extra help, especially when like. hey did you know the source material very on purpose did not do anything remotely like that. critical thinking question: could there be some reasons these phrases are not great, potentially

#* #mithrun #dungeon meshi #people are being weird about laois and falin wrt autism also but this is a separate issue #the downside of rep outside of like Average Action Movie Protagonist #which is to say. rep at all. as we would think of it. #is that you get to see not in-group folks talk about those characters. also. #and sometimes. people have. let us say. unexamined. or unacknowledged. biases. perhaps prejudices. at times. #ANYWAY #DISABLED PEOPLE HOWEVER DISABLED ARE NOT INFANTS OR ANIMALS. THANK YOU. #ALSO JUST FOR THE RECORD NOT THAT IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO MY POINT #BUT MITHRUN IS SAID IN THE STORY TO BE FAIRLY SELF SUFFICIENT OUTSIDE OF DUNGEON CRAWLING. #his intelligence and strength stats are both extremely high. hey. hey. hey guys. what about him compels you to portray him #as weak or bumbling or unintelligent. quickly. #edit: #like look. if your whole joke is just ''ooooh he's so fucked up. he's so fucked up he's basically a goofy dog''. think about some things. #talking about/including a character's disability: 👍✅ #exclusively talking about how fucked up it makes them/how fucked up it is to be disabled: 😕❌ #double anyway. fucking. please for the love of god if nothing else. understand that real life disabled people see how you talk about #and portray those with disabilities. and sometimes! it does not feel good. thank you. #this isn't no fun alloweding. just THINK before you say shit PLEASE. #the only character ive seen get called a dog as much as mithrun is fucking laois. which. yk? ykwim here? would u call chilchuck a pursedog. #would that be fucked up‚ maybe. can you tell me why. are you reading me. #ok. i'm done. just. god. negative sims interaction bubble. JUST THINK ABOUT IT THATS ALL. #''its funny to ship mithrun with beautiful people bc he looks so fucked up now haha'' PLEASE CAN ANYONE HEAR ME. #actually i have more to say. rbing this. god. God.

[reanimatedgh0ul]

anyways this is my take on lance/kristin lol

#LIKE I'M SORRY BUT THERE IS NO WAY I SEE LANCE GETTING W HER AND NOT FUCKING THAT SHIT UP SOMEHOW #it would all go back to the fact that he has trauma and he's so devoted to the mission believes it takes priority above everything else #he's absolutely the kind of person who believes responsibility demands sacrifice #he'd totally sacrifice that relationship he has w kristin for it #yk if she asked him to talk her abt it he's not going to bc what could he honestly say to her #so basically yes i can see them ultimately getting together and making it work somehow #but it's def gonna be a bit of an uphill battle getting there though #sym bionic titan #robi rambles

#I actually really like how this turned out............. #my art #temeraire #john granby #william laurence #tenzing tharkay #this picture is after a few drinks btw #I think Laurence secretly likes being touched but yk he's very stoic and he REFUSES to ask for it so everyone kind of assumes he doesn't?? #but it. comes out a lil when he's drunk. #Tharkay is very unused to it but he's definitely not. opposed. to being touched. especially if its by Laurence... #Granby meanwhile does this all the time. #hes always falling asleep on people and clapping them on the shoulders and nudging them with his hip to get their attention #but it takes him like a bajillion years to hug Laurence for the first time cuz yk. Laurence is. Laurence. #and Laurence is also hesitant to initiate things like that bc he doesn't want to be weird (ITS NOT WEIRD TO HUG YOUR BEST FRIEND LAURENCE.) #tharkay meanwhile has never had very much desire to get close to someone physically or paid very much attention to it #and then he meets Laurence. who barely ever touches anyone. and suddenly whenever their hands brush tharkay is hyperaware of it #I have no idea what I'm saying #I've got a big fat cold and I deadass almost took my ADHD meds on accident instead of ibuprofen... it's 11pm. #that is to say. I'm a touch delirious #so I apologize sincerely if I completely mischaracterized them

[ferretwhomst]

alright guys. poll time

just wanted to ask because from what i can tell the gf fandom doesn't really seem to have a general fandom-wide consensus on this ship. rbs would be appreciated!!! also feel free to elaborate in the tags which option you chose and why! i'd love to hear people's reasoning :-)

#personally i have super mixed feelings on billford #people sometimes boil down their relationship to “haha they fight like a divorced couple” and yeah it's an easy generalization but #i really hate when people skip over the aspects of their dynamic which are Fucked Up #like... bill was abusive and manipulative to ford from the start. and ford was fucking OBSESSED with him #and his time with bill left a lasting mark on him for years and years #that's not even including how bill fucking tortured ford during weirdmageddon #my point is they aren't HEALTHY. they never were #and i think the only way to do their relationship justice is to keep the unhealthy dynamic #while also acknowledging how fucked up it is #there isn't a single world where ford is normal about bill and vice versa #i don't necessarily mean that romantically tho because i don't really ship billford myself #i'm just observing from the sidelines as i take a bite out of my platonic stan twins and fiddauthor fanworks yk #ok this got long. #what i'm trying to say is their dynamic was fucked up as hell and it would stay like that even if they were gay 4 each other #anyways #ferret rambles #gravity falls #bill cipher #gf bill cipher #stanford pines #ford pines #grunkle ford #gf ford #billford #poll

I didn’t know Papyrus was canonically gay! I’m glad I know that now.

When was it said or confirmed?

yeah crushing on a man does that to you. sometimes. might require further research

#gay is a shorthand i just meant attracted to men I'm not saying he can't be like. bi or whatever #thinking about the responses i got to that post. and i think the date segment centering on him feeling pressured into romance #as an obligation to another party rather than something he wishes lends itself really well to an aro reading of his character #which is what i also go with personally #answered asks #undertale #papyrus #but i meant gay as in he thinks that robot is hot as hell. which is straight up text yk

THIS. JUST. THIS. [ramble below cut]

okay. to be fair i haven't watched the episode in 2 years so forgive like. holes. if there are any. but LIKE. IF ASH TOOK THAT, HE WOULD HAVE LIKELY BEEN FINE. HE HAS BEEN SUBJECTED TO ELECTRIC ATTACKS LIKE THIS MANY TIMES, ON PURPOSE ON SOME OCCASIONS MIGHT I ADD. CLEMONT DIDN'T NEED TO DO THIS. The fact he did though is really awesome to me. because it's something he would never do. in this moment, Clemont is mirroring the courage he sees Ash demonstrate. I'm sure that up to this point he's seen Ash do many crazy things -- i can only remember he's seen Ash jump off the prism tower with no hesitation up to this point. sigh. But yeah. Clemont studies this boy silently. Clemont observes, and becomes a little bit more of a person he can be happy with. In this scene he REALLY shows what he's picked up. it's awesome i love this episode i love this scene

#my rambles #pokémon #pokeani #gym leader clemont #ash ketchum #diodeshipping #I'M NOT SAYING CLEMONT HASN'T DEALT WITH ELECTRICITY-RELATED PAIN BTW. #*looks at his inventions* #*looks at his pokemon* #i'm just saying that if he hadn't been so inspired by ash #he wouldn't have done this. #it was a risk #clemont didn't take risks before #especially not ones that mirror ash so heavily #im insane abt them #like that was such an ash thing #and it shows how much he cares for ash also #he's not immune to saving people he doesn't know. but i mean like. YK WHAT I MEAN. ASH BEHAVIOR. DEVELOPMENT. #GRAHHH THIS EPISODE. LOVE LOVE LOVE

that I literally have the assurance I will know about the mighty nein during all of this in just 1 week and yet I'm like matthew please casually say yasha's name

#critical role #cr lb #ALSO THE WAY I'M ACTIVELY IGNORING MY TRIP OUT OF SEVERE ANXIETY #JUST SAY YASHA I KNOW I'LL SEE HER SO SO SO SOSOSOSOSO SOON BUT GKDJFLK #the way my stomach did a little happy lurch at mentioning the nein #yasha storms into veth's room like NOTT. I AM SENDING A MESSAGE AND THERE'S ONLY QUIET #and veth's like yk what I bet jester's just messaging her right now so lets CATCH HER IN THE ACT and they burst into jester's room #who comedically is actually messaging allura in that moment #and yasha's like yes hello apologize for the cursing message I sent her I didn't know she was busy I'm learning still
