it is all chaos and entropy. the thing is that the chaos and entropy make it beautiful and lovely.

yes, it's true that nature and the universe are uncaring and unspecific, and that is terrifying. i have lived through some of the unfairness - i got born like this, with my body caving into itself, with this ironic love of dance when i sometimes can't stand up for longer than 15 minutes. i am a poet with hands that are slowly shutting down - i can't hold a pen some days. recently i found a dead bird on our front porch. she had no visible injuries. she had just died, the way things die sometimes.

it is also true that nature and the universe are uncaring and unspecific, and that is wonderful. the sheer happenstance that makes rain turn into a rainbow. the impossible coincidence of finding your best friend. i have made so many mistakes and i have let myself down and i have harmed other people by accident. nature moves anyway. on the worst day of my life she delivers me an orange juice sunset, as if she is saying try again tomorrow.

how vast and unknowing the universe! how small we are! isn't that lovely. the universe has given us flowers and harp strings and the shape of clouds. how massive our lives are in comparison to a grasshopper. the world so bright, still undiscovered. even after 30 years of being on this earth, i learned about a new type of animal today: the dhole.

chance echoing in my life like a harmony between two people talking. do you think you and i, living in different worlds but connected through the internet - do you think we've ever seen the same butterfly? they migrate thousands of miles. it's possible, right?

how beautiful the ways we fill the vastness of space. i love that when large amounts of people are applauding in a room, they all start clapping at the same time. i love that the ocean reminds us of our mother's heartbeat. i love that out of all the colors, chlorophyll chose green. i love the coincidences. i love the places where science says i don't know, but it just happens.

"the universe doesn't care about you!" oh, i know. that's okay. i care about the universe. i will put my big stupid heart out into it and watch the universe feast on it. it is not painful. it is strange - the more love you pour into the unfeeling world, the more it feels the world loves you in return. i know it's confirmation bias. i think i'm okay if my proof of kindness is just my own body and my own spirit.

i buried the bird from our porch deep in the woods. that same day, an old friend reaches out to me and says i miss you. wherever you go, no matter how bad it gets - you try to do good.

#writeblr #warm up #i can't write rn but i have SO much words in here bc im reading the chorus of dragons books #(just started book 4) #and this woman's writing is just LIVING in my brain. let me out!!! #(i read roughly like 2-4 books a week usually bc i go on long walks with my dog but when a book is REALLY good like. it eats my life. ) #anyway ...... so like here's a story that idk i've tried to explain to other people as being wild #but maybe im the only one who thinks it is wild??? #so i play pokemon go (i just started in jan) bc i love pokemon and as i have mentioned i walk goblin for like an hour in the morning #and i don't like a lot of fitness trackers due to the fact it makes me .sad. but i also wanted the little digital rewards. enter pokemon go #anyway so they make you make friends to complete quests. so i used a reddit thread. i do not usually use reddit. i don't have an acct #i lurked. i just googled like ''pokemon go reddit '' and randomly added a bunch of numbers #i was on that page for all of 15 minutes. there are THOUSANDS of responses on that page. #here's what's wild: in that group of people. even though i am not on reddit and it was one random event once #it turns out one of those people lives in the town i live in. or at least very close. i only know this because #when we send each other gifts. it's from the same freaking area. #i can't ask them to meet up bc pokemon go doesn't have a messaging app lol but like . what are the fucking chances that #a random person posts in a random reddit thread and HAPPENS to get added by someone ELSE from their SAME TOWN #who by pure fucking CHANCE is ALSO playing pokemon go and looking for friends #i googled it there's only 42000 people in my broad region. the .......... smallness ! of the world!!!

[image ID under the cut]

[image ID: Meet the artist meme of tumblr user floq. At the center of the image there's a drawing of myself in real life, this is a tall and slender femme presenting person with pale skin and shoulder length brown hair styled as a messy bob, they wear a pair of round glasses and their head is slightly tilted to the left. They wear a long black skirt paired with an oversized striped gray and black sweatshirt; they are wearing a pair of fingerless gloves, fishnets tights and combat boots. Behind this drawing of myself there's a drawing of my sona, which is a femme looking shadow creature with multiple eyes, shaggy shoulder length hair and white colored arms, they are waving at the viewer with their left hand.

There are multiple items in the scene that have different facts about myself. On the left side, from top to bottom we have:

a "Hello, my name is" sticker with the name "Florencia Quiroz" and the pronouns "They/she" written on it along side with three doodles of ghosts.

a yellow sticky note that lists my instagram @floq_art and my tumblr @floq.

a green and black birthday cake with candles that say "20" and my birthday (october 21st, 2003) written on it.

a burgundy heart that reads "I like... gothic music and subculture, horror media, coffee" as bullet points.

a drawing of my cat Romeo.

a drawing of character Danny Phantom from the show of the same name surrounded by green ghosts. next to the drawing says "Fav show: Danny Phantom".

On the right side, from top to bottom we have:

a drawing of the non-binary flag, a drawing of the asexual flag and a drawing of the autism infinity symbol.

doodles of eyes.

a drawing of my Sony WH-1000XM4 which I wear everywhere.

drawings of three different album covers from the artists Siousxie and the Banshees, The Cure and Gorillaz (the albums are: The Best Of... Siouxsie and the Banshees, Disintegration and Demon Days). below the albums it's written "my music taste".

doodles of two black bats.

drawing of the chilean flag with the words "I'm from:" written above.

Everything on scene is up against a plain olive green background. End of ID]

#the ID was a pain to write #i also changed the flag bc i originally had the flag of my home city #most of us are from chile so stating it on the drawing would’ve just been redundant #but there are a lot of people that come from different cities and regions all throughout the country #my art #floqsona #meet the artist #artists on tumblr

My takes on our mc girl of hoyoverse

#honkai impact #honkai star rail #genshin impact #kiana kaslana #lumine #honkai stelle #kiana did becoming more mature by the end of the story #stelle the wet racoon #please let lumine meet her twin hyv #the old kiana and stelle would be a disaster tbh #i know that it looks ooc for lumine but wouldnt you be mentally exhausted after solving every regions bullshits #alright think of this as abyss lumine then #abyss lumine

[ventii-impact]

i neeed more old mondstadt lore. how did people feel when venti took on the form of his friend? were they reverent? sympathetic? disgusted? was this what turned the red haired warrior away from him, or was it because he didn’t trust his ascension as a god after having just removed a tyrant?

on top of that, amos is such a fascinating character yet so little is known about her. she was a mortal lover of a god! her name means burden! venti wields a bow in honor of her! my girl was so interesting!

and of course, there is such a scarcity of nameless bard content. despite being venti’s entire reason for godhood, we know fairly little about his personality or past.

(and don’t even get me started on istaroth)

#old mondstadt #venti #amos #sooo fun how the dichotomy of loyalty to authority vs rejection of it was carried on by the gunnhildrs and ragnvindrs to the present day #also i’m getting started on istaroth #she was around since very early times but as far as i can tell she was only worshipped alongside barbatos not decarabian. there Must be #some connection right? did they meet at some early point in venti’s godhood? did he already have a connection with her? for them to have #been worshipped together the people of mond must have seen / heard abt her (potentially with venti) somehow so how did this occur? #interestingly both istaroth and venti are some of the only gods i can think of that have been active outside of their specific region #x

wasn’t Thrawn’s whole thing that he thought the Death Star was dumb as shit, a waste of resources and funding that could have been going into proper defensive fleets or whatever. like even if he is going to be part of this shadow council and work for the growing First Order, how long will it be until someone brings up Starkiller (or even more likely he just figures it out himself) and he’s like yeah okay fuck this actually

#i really can’t see thrawn having any interest in the first order but this concept is so funny to me #some dumbass at the shadow council like ‘guys I have an idea’. top ten moments before complete disaster #they’re like guys. the Death Star. but bigger and more costly! and thrawn just logs out of their zoom meeting #he’s like actually I forgot something in the unknown regions. and drops back off the grid #thrawn #thrawn trilogy #sequel trilogy #starkiller base #the mandalorian #ahsoka #sw #Star Wars #z speaks

Drake (Elite Four): It's been a long time, Kahuna Hala. How's everyone and everything in Alola.

Hala: No need for formalities, my old friend. All's well, especially after the Alola League.

Drake: Hahaha. You probably didn't know this, but I've already met Ash before he became the Alola League Champion. When I watched the entire League via Livestream, I can see that he changed a lot. Not to mention that Lance fainted after he won with his 10 million volt against Tapu Koko.

Hala: Excuse me, what?

Hala: *begining to realize Ash know's a lot of important people* what do you mean dual champion Lance watched the Alolan league-

#kahuna hala #ash ketchum #elite four drake #like Alola getting more connected to the other regions due to political stuff they now have to deal with since they have their own league- #and like one or two of the kahuna's joining Ash and Kukui on an international meeting of some kind and their just watching Ash- #high five and greet like 98% of the gym leaders/elite four/champions coming into the room

ohohohoh Narcissus mentioned Echo!! let's go!!

#hades 2 #hades 2 spoilers #it's cool they're stranded in different regions instead of having one at the hub. orpheus or achilles style #what are we calling the people you meet on a run who give you stuff. arachne and him and echo for those 3 regions

4town Boys & Their Ace Pokemon

Vs the pokemon everyone thinks their Ace is!

Happy Pokemon Day :]

————

Robaire: Cinccino

- Robaire’s ace is of course a lovely and well kept Cinccino! He’s had her for a long while now & evolved her himself

- The two get along great and enjoy doing self care together!

- Robaire got her as a present from family in his teenage years as a birthday gift. He’s a big fan of Minccino & has probably done multiple fashion looks based off Minccino/Cinccino!

- However, until Robaire iconized his love for the pokemon, many expected a much different Ace from him 👀 and while answers varied, Robaire’s most common expectation was: Furfrou!

- Maybe its because he’s a diva, maybe it’s because its a fashion pokemon & he’s a fashionable guy, maybe its cause every other city kid had one- but not Robaire! He never much had an interest in getting one either, he’s not the fondest of the common Furfrou rudeness

- He’s probably also modeled with a lot of Furfrou in the past for shoots, which definitely doesn’t help with the misunderstanding of his Ace Pokemon- but nowadays he tries to be an openly proud & notable Cinccino trainer ✨

————

Jesse: Claydol

- Jesse’s ace of choice is his best friend: Claydol! He befriended this pokemon at a young age & grew with her :]!

- The two are eerily in sync and sometimes scare folks, but are undeniably a perfect duo

- Jesse found Claydol back when she was a Baltoy! He discovered her in a ditch while looking for “buried treasure” as a kid & ended up making a lifelong friend who loves & helps protect/watch his kids

- However, being an artist, Jesse faces every artist’s struggle of what ppl assume. Everyone thinks his ace is the ever iconic Smeargle 💀

- And dont get it twisted! Jesse has a Smeargle! He got one when he was very little as a birthday gift, unfortunately, he & Jesse butt heads A LOT and can hardly agree on anything! They are as perfect out of sync as Jesse & Claydol are in sync!

- Regardless Jesse loves his Smeargle, he loves his Claydol, he’s just tired of everyone assuming who’s his “most important” pokemon

————

Tae Young: Tranquill or Pidove!

- Tae Young’s ace is Tranquill & Pidove! And its no surprise, not after he’s iconized his love for the birds!

- He and all of his pigeony pals are well coordinated & loving! He has extremely high friendship/love with his pokenon

- Tae was absolutely awestruck with Pidove after moving away from Johto, he fell in love with the pokemon and would quickly grow to adopt and evolve his own! His love for the birds would grow so large that it’d become a part of his gimmick as a trainer!

- And while many newer fans know who Tae’s ace is, older fans of Tae before he joined 4*Town are always a bit confused to see he doesn’t have a Natu!

- Growing up a Johto kid, Natu was one of the plentiful pokemon in his area! And it took his favorite spot for a very long time, similarly to Pidove now- Natu used to be Tae’s most iconic pokemon!

- And while he has a Xatu back home with his grandma that he loves dearly, its really honestly more of her Pokémon now! And he’s happy for the connection the two share <:3

Bonus: Tae still has a Natu on his team & its shiny, but its very self conscious of that so Tae helps it “dress up” as a normal Natu

————

Aaron T: Gliscor

- Aaron T’s ace is the one and only Gliscor! And he’s just as bold as his trainer is, they’re not shy to doing stupid tricks together

- The two share a single braincell, its really impressive how they manage to pull anything off

- T of course found his friend as a Gligar when he was younger, undoubtedly finding the little bat while exploring somewhere he wasn’t supposed to. I dont imagine he properly caught Gligar for awhile either… rather he just.. kept grabbing it & dragging it back home??

- Either way they’re besties now, you couldn’t separate the two for anything! And while many fans think the duo is iconic, few folk’s ever guess T’s ace correctly! Rather, many suspect T to have: Pikachu!

- T loves Pikachu (though he loves Raichu more), but he’s never had one or thought to have one. He was forbidden from having any electric types as a kid (for obvious reasons) & thats still engrained in his brain. But he does love the electric mouse :]!

————

Aaron Z: Swoobat

- Aaron Z’s ever illusive Ace is Swoobat! Who is undeniably the most sweet of any of the pokemon listed <:]!

- Z & Swoobat share an awkward aura together, and while they seem to understand each other perfectly- others seem to have a hard time connecting

- Swoobat was a gift for Z from an older sibling, he received Swoobat as is and has been attached to him since he was a teen. Swoobat was the main of his older sister before she left for college :,]! She passed Swoobat on since Z actually wanted to be a trainer when he was an adult

- But while Swoobat & Z are fan favorites to Z’s portion of the fanbase- more uneducated fans often dont know Z has a pokemon! In the beginning of the group, Z’s ace was teased and was a mystery! The most popular speculation still haunts Z, many still assume is ace is: Meinshao

- He has a meinfoo from managers, one who dances with him and is training to evolve, but he finds that Meinfoo gets along much better with T & Gliscor then himself. So he often lets the 3 play around & hopes to trade Meinfoo over one day

#4town #they come from 4 regions :] #in this Au i imagine 4town is a pokemon show/trainer group #jesse’s kids & smeargle get alonf really well #the aarons both have bat pokemon #t has an uncanny ability to befriend any pokemon he meets #4town jesse #4town imagines #4townie #4town aaron t #4town aaron z #4town robaire #4town taeyoung #4 town

Why does my family cling to Israel and Israel's continued existence? Simple. You see, when we were being persecuted and killed by the Nazis, and my family was chased out and was stripped of their citizenship, they tried to go to America. Only America turned them away. They had nowhere else to go. No one would accept them. No one wanted them. You know the only place that did? Israel

#lost more than half my family #a lot of people I will never know and will never meet #this is for the “destroy Israel” and “go back to Europe” morons by the way #we remember #Israel's existence does not mean that there can't be a palestinian state ffs #for many of us diaspora jews it's literally just a safe place we know we can come back to #if you want to have a mature serious discussion with me on i/p you drop the “death to israel” nonsense and educate yourself #on the holocaust on the thousands of years of persecutions and expulsions on the many forms of antisemitism #on the actual history of israel and our indigeneity to the region - noa tishby has an excellent book on it #and only then you can come back and debate policy with me like an adult #not a child stamping their foot demanding jews die or be expelled #antisemitism #leftist antisemitism #jumblr #jewish history

[musubiki]

The m34th going through different witch seduction tactics, meanwhile Lime is just: thighs thighs thighs thighs

HE WOULD!!!!! also it would be VERY funny if the anti-witch-seduction (AWS) training had the exact same vibes as those free speech training things they make you do in university where you watch a bunch of bad acting videos and answer very easy questions that have very obvious correct answers if youre not a monster

lime having to sit there watching another video of someone dressed as a fake witch and then taking a multiple choice quiz thats like "You see a witch trying to bribe you with her body, do you A) bring her in anyway, or B) give in?" and hes like "Boy oh boy i wonder what the right answer is"

or its one of those cringey corporate team meeting vibes where everyone sits down in a big room and the manager goes "okay im not naming names but REMEMBER IN THE HANDBOOK how it says we're not supposed to sleep with witches?? yeah?? that was in the handbook guys. please read it again if you need to. this is not team player behavior"

#and EVERYONE is zoning out and mad at whoever got caught #as a psa lime is never the reason why these meetings get called #hes sneaky and smart about mochi #its some other idiot asshole having a love affair with the badger witch in the mountain region or some bullshit #the m34th is largely a very awesome and very cool and serious organization #but i need to throw in the dumb moments like this because i think its very funny #90% of the time they leave you alone with your missions and just ask that you report in and do your paperwork every now and again #and then theres the bureaucracy of government training programs hidden in the bowels of the org

[worstloki]

you are a disgusting piece of shit like kill yourself or die along with those terrorists

Hope this helps 👍

#like do u really see nothing sus here #most of the world considers notable Palestinian groups to be resistance fighters #‘Israel’ was established by what like British mandate wow good thing they’ve never done any wrongs #and wow America supports them whew glad that makes it clear they’re on the ‘right’ side as the West always is #surely the European Union is interested in peace in the region #there is no way they would benefit by the region remaining in conflict due to literally the entire region wanting that state dissolved #literally no one anywhere else is surprised its America and allies(TM) making ridiculous claims in the media and in international meetings #wanting settlers off occupied land is good and Palestinians deserve their homes back actually #the ability to research information yourself is clearly available if you are sending random anons #your ignorance is willful #and your hate-mail is subpar #i couldn't even tell who you were referring to as 'terrorists' #''like die'' #i read your message in a shaggy voice #Language! #L!

I have a little habit of picking from Traits I think are Fun and applying them to Self Inserts I think are a little bland, and for my Sun and Moon S/I this became "Inexplicably hated by animals" which is a very unfortunate trait to have in the Pokemon World.

#Emile's Arts #Lillie #proship selfship #The first time he meets Lillie is the defending Nebby from Murkrow's scene at the start of SM #That's where the notch in his ear comes from; Most of the other scratches on his arms and back heal up without scaring #Then the day after Hau gets his first Pokemon the Professor is DESPERATELY trying to convince Lillie to take one too #Sense Nebby clearly can't defend her and she's gonna follow me and Hau around the Alola Region #And to try and convince her to take one I take Litten who IMMEDIATELY scratches me #New scar unlocked #Lillie EVENTUALLY takes Popplio just or the sake of her healing moves sense we're clearly going to need those #His starter is a Porygon Molayne and Sophocles made for him #It's less an Animal Companion and more a Super Computer #So it doesn't hate him like other Pokemon #But also they can never have that BOND most trainers have with their Pokemon #Sense it's just a computer and doesn't have emotions (supposedly) #(Fun plot where Porygon does eventually grow to love it's trainer for funsies side plot and Protag character growth) #Which eventually lends itself to how he interacts with and saves Cyrus when he goes to Sinnoh #But that's a future plot
