finding out washmaine lost to lolix in the rvb divorced bracket and immediately shoving down about 75k words of a TED talk in absolutely rabid fury

#YOU FOOLS. YOU WATCHED SEASON SIX. AND YOU DID NOT UNDERSTAND. NOT A SINGLE THING. YOU DID NOT SEE THE VISION. #'it's him. it's the meta.' the way it takes the meta literally three tries to just INJURE wash. AND THEY LOST? REALLY? #like yes the A-plot of recreation is obviously the church reveal #BUT NEARLY EVERYTHING ELSE WE LEARN ABOUT PROJECT FREELANCER COMES BACK TO THE FACT THAT WASH KNEW THE PERSON THAT THE META USED TO BE. #whether wash think he's going to save whatever is left of maine or destroy him is Reader's Choice but both options are EXTREMELY DIVORCED #and babes that's why the way that wash came back at the end of recreation works so well! BECAUSE HE'S WITH WHATEVER WAS LEFT AFTER THE EMP! #STICKFIGUREVIOLENCE.PNG #also just for the sake of clarity and context i'm like 40k words into writing a lolix fic as we speak. in the year of our lord 2023. #I HAVE HORSES IN THIS RACE. #i'm not saying they're NOT divorced also. but i AM saying that you can't compete with the washmaine divorced energy #red vs blue

#negativity cw #mother mention cw #if there’s one good thing about last eeekend’s meltdown #now I know that even after almost a year of therapy which supposedly ‘saved’ her marriage to my dad #my mom still feels no compunctions about last year’s Dec 20 and 21 screamfests #where she told me she would be gifting my dad a divorce for Xmas and it would be my fault #for trying to [redacted] herself in front of me while I whisper screamed for her not to #for blaming me every year since age 13 for their marriage being in the rocks #after a year of therapy and imploring me to seek therapy myself #she still doesn’t regret any of it #I vowed to myself after last year’s Christmas meltdown that I would never get them any kind of anniversary gift again #not after a decade of being blamed as a child for their issues #and now I feel no remorse about that decision #no flowers no chocolates no cards no special surprises #I’m the eldest child and earning close to six figures and not a penny of it will go to celebrating their Union #and i don’t care how bad it makes me look #she can get a one-line ‘congrats’ in the family WhatsApp group chat and that’s it #you don’t get to scream at me every 18 months ever since I was 14 #that I am the one strain on your otherwise faultless marriage #that it’s my fault my siblings will grow up in a broken home #that it’s my fault we’ll have to sell the family home of 30 years to pay for the divorce #and never apologize at all even years down the line when I’m an adult and you’ve had your ‘character development’ #and expect me to celebrate your Union #it’s very very petty and idk if she’ll notice bc I’ve never really made anniversary gifts for them before #but that’s my revenge

#I am so fucking tired of my parents #if I don't find a full time job soon (which i haven't been able to find for the past six months) #it's possible that my dad will be given the opportunity to live in our house by the state #apparently it can be done in around ten days once it's decided #can i trust my mother with these kinds of informations? absolutely not. but there is a 50/50 chances that it's true #i have saved as much as i could all my life in preparation of this moment and i do have enough money to move but it takes time #every other week my mother comes home with similar kinds of insane informations for me to process #one week she reassures me everything is fine and i have like a couple of years before leaving this house #the week after. this. #i have no idea of what's real or not #i am so stressed that last week i lost the ability to finction for three days straight #i am going insane #and i am in no condition to find jobs i've applied to very little positions in this timeframe also because of this stress that paralyzes me #i am not depressed but god i am indeed exausted #i also have surgery planned (do not know the date yet it's not a difficult one but i never had one and i am scared shitless) #and technically i am in a promising job selection but it's a public one so no one tells you nothing and it can take up to six months before #someone calls you back #so i am inside a limbo on every aspect of my life and it's unreal #i can't even see my psychologist because she's getting surgery next week so i'll see her the week after #i don't have the streight to write this new developement to friends #i think i'll just deadscroll for a while and then go to bed #i don't know. i'm so tired and at the same time not at all tired #i'm doing nothing with my days but i still need everything to stop #i don't know #stuff

So, I think I just saw one of the worst takes for ch. 390--that being that Enji is being his asshole self because he's talking over Touya in his last moments.

I understand hating a character but I really don't know why people have the need to read everything they do from the most malicious angle possible. I get that Enji was a bad father, and even now makes mistakes, but it's really unfair to see him apologizing to Touya who has already been aloud to use what little breath he has left to speak, as him talking over him.

And the thing is people were shitting on Enji for not apologizing earlier, but now that he is, they have to find some other reason he's being terrible. I'm 100% positive that if Enji had just listened to Touya rant about hating everyone and wanted them all to die, these same people would say he was bad for not saying anything/apologizing.

Touya was barely coherent before Shoto froze him and now he's freezing from the inside out. He's charred to the bone and it's clear he's having trouble speaking the few times he did. For all the family knows, including Enji, Touya is dying. Does Enji really have the time to wait to apologize? And it's not like we see Touya trying to speak but getting cut off.

Saying Enji is making everything all about himself and speaking over Touya is overly harsh and clearly not the point the story is trying to make. It's just Enji finally apologizing to everyone, including Touya. The apology may not be enough, but even if it's not, it won't be because Enji talked over him and more that it came to late, or that words don't speak as loud as actions.

#idk #the way every non-Touya todoroki got heavily criticized these last few chapters really bugs me #like people make every excuse for Dabi #but as soon as the family gets upset because he's going to kill hundreds of innocent people #instead of telling him how much they want him to live and how much they love him #while risking their lives to try and save him mind you #they're big wrong and should try harder to be better siblings #like Touya's been dead to them for six years or more #and then it turns out he's been alive and shows up trying to kill your youngest brother #and admits to killing 30 random people to make your abusive dad look bad #and helps throw Japan in to a dystopian nightmare #and this makes everyone hate you #like idk i'd probably be more concerned with the hundreds of innocent people he's about to kill over him too #he's put your lives at risk multiple times and has already killed a lot of people #you haven't heard from him for 6 years and he let you think he was dead the entire time #like honestly Touya is lucky his siblings even bothered to show up to help him at all #like Rei and Enji should be there because they're obligated to be as his parents #but it would be more then fair for all of Touya's siblings to wash their hands of him after all the shit he put them through #but how dare anyone be anything but understanding and loving toward any of the LoV #it wouldn't bug me as much if Dabi got the same treatment #but when people said it was pretty shitty he left his family and let them think he was dead #he got the whole 'he owns his family nothing' treatment #like why does Touya own his family nothing #and it's fine for him to leave them to grieve his loss while he plots to murder shoto to show up there father #but wrong for Fuyumi and Natsu to not be 100% showing Dabi with love as he burns everyone in a 100 miles alive #including them

said a prayer for Jjong today.

#shinee #jonghyun #idk i don't usually yk. do things like that for people that have passed but it's been six years and it felt fitting somehow #six years ago i was what. 12 about to turn 13???? had already been to a fair bit of funerals but the only ones that had hit me before #this one were the pianist at our church who passed away suddenly from a heart attack and the regional club leader who had cancer #for like three years and passed just as the doctors thought she would go into remission #and those both happened around October/November so. going into the winter season has always been hard for me and Jjong #was no different. #it's gotten better slowly but it still hurts sometimes. some days i wake up and i can't even look at any of his pictures other days #i get up and put his albums on loop and laugh and reblog so many of his antics #it's funny bc when my aunt passed on New Year's in 2019 it was exactly two weeks after the 1st anniversary date rolled around. always has #been but i never noticed until we lost her and we had to go down for the funeral and i basically disappeared off the internet for a good #two to four months sans queue and checking in on Discord and sh*t and that year he managed to keep me sane. sounds f*cked up #but that year it was just me and Spotify and my playlists and Jjong's voice amid it all. i wish i could meet him and tell him in person #that he practically saved my life even tho the fandom was still raw af from losing him but the prayer will have to be enough #you did well Jjong. you worked so hard. you are our pride. love you to the moon and back 🌒🌙 <333

i'm yet to actually watch (puella magi star kaomoji) madoka magica (will probably do after my final exams week) but i feel like i can say that with homura's speech about love being "more passionate than hope and deeper than despair" and turning into literal devil just to make the "girl she loves" happy and safe...

either those two are lesbians or they have a very very extremely devoted friendship. because i swear to God.

#𓇬 ⸝ txt. ⌨️ #( pm ☆ mm ) #<- already saving the tag #either way #good for them #<- lying. they're the most tragic couple (of besties question mark) i've seen in a LOOOONG while #i /would/ say i wish for them to have a happy ending but i prefer to not get my hopes up #with that said #i'm planning to watch the main anime and the movies in time for me to walpurgisnacht rising and not lose. like. the hype #but i suppose i'll have plenty of time to do so since apparently it took six years for that movie to be annouced after rebellion was . . . #released ???? #which. glad the team is actually putting care on their work. but holy shit. #the main anime has. what. 12 episodes . . . ? so i think it'll be easy for me to catch up on time #no idea if i'm going to read the mangas tho. #also the art style and aesthetic of pmmm is sooooo good !!! obssessed with it fr fr

Is Utrecht nice??

#After just six months of working I should have enough savings to see me through a two year masters in Utrecht lmao

It took me eight tickets to get her, but I got her. The rest I'm saving for Oberon. It took me about six years of playing fgo for me to finally get a Cu alter, and it so happened to be from the free SSR ticket. My luck for this man is horrid. 🥹😑

the older I get, the more the technological changes I've lived through as a millennial feel bizarre to me. we had computers in my primary school classroom; I first learned to type on a typewriter. I had a cellphone as a teenager, but still needed a physical train timetable. my parents listened to LP records when I was growing up; meanwhile, my childhood cassette tape collection became a CD collection, until I started downloading mp3s on kazaa over our 56k modem internet connection to play in winamp on my desktop computer, and now my laptop doesn't even have a disc tray. I used to save my word documents on floppy discs. I grew up using the rotary phone at my grandparents' house and our wall-connected landline; my mother's first cellphone was so big, we called it The Brick. I once took my desktop computer - monitor, tower and all - on the train to attend a LAN party at a friend's house where we had to connect to the internet with physical cables to play together, and where one friend's massive CRT monitor wouldn't fit on any available table. as kids, we used to make concertina caterpillars in class with the punctured and perforated paper strips that were left over whenever anything was printed on the room's dot matrix printer, which was outdated by the time I was in high school. VHS tapes became DVDs, and you could still rent both at the local video store when I was first married, but those shops all died out within the next six years. my facebook account predates the iphone camera - I used to carry around a separate digital camera and manually upload photos to the computer in order to post them; there are rolls of undeveloped film from my childhood still in envelopes from the chemist's in my childhood photo albums. I have a photo album from my wedding, but no physical albums of my child; by then, we were all posting online, and now that's a decade's worth of pictures I'd have to sort through manually in order to create one. there are video games I tell my son about but can't ever show him because the consoles they used to run on are all obsolete and the games were never remastered for the new ones that don't have the requisite backwards compatibility. I used to have a walkman for car trips as a kid; then I had a discman and a plastic hardshell case of CDs to carry around as a teenager; later, a friend gave my husband and I engraved matching ipods as a wedding present, and we used them both until they stopped working; now they're obsolete. today I texted my mother, who was born in 1950, a tiktok upload of an instructional video for girls from 1956 on how to look after their hair and nails and fold their clothes. my father was born four years after the invention of colour televison; he worked in radio and print journalism, and in the years before his health declined, even though he logically understood that newspapers existed online, he would clip out articles from the physical paper, put them in an envelope and mail them to me overseas if he wanted me to read them. and now I hold the world in a glass-faced rectangle, and I have access to everything and ownership of nothing, and everything I write online can potentially be wiped out at the drop of a hat by the ego of an idiot manchild billionaire. as a child, I wore a watch, but like most of my generation, I stopped when cellphones started telling us the time and they became redundant. now, my son wears a smartwatch so we can call him home from playing in the neighbourhood park, and there's a tanline on his wrist ike the one I haven't had since the age of fifteen. and I wonder: what will 2030 look like?

I don't know if my life is just extremely charmed. but listening to my coworkers talk is so bizarre to me? the way that money is the only measure of success or good life that they care about blows my mind. we are talking about furthering our education and the only thing they are looking at is how much the salary for that field pays. I understand money is important, but that's honestly not something I've given even more than a passing thought to with the programs I'm applying for? I just don't get it? We do science, don't you care more about the work than the money? Am I just blind because I haven't ever had money troubles? I don't know.

#like one of them is a single mom with a teenager so I get you want money to support both of you and to send them to high school and college #but the other one is a single late 30's man with no kids or pets #why do you need a salary that high? #like.... half the time I think I'm basically rich? I am absolutely not lol #but money is definitely not something I worry about right now? #maybe during/after grad school that'll change but as it is I am very comfortable #I can't imagine that it would be much different for them? (with the exception of the kid obviously. two people need more money than one) #did living with my parents for one year after college really make that big of a difference? #idk I get I've never lived in poverty and I've never been in serious debt so money stress is something I haven't felt #but money has just never been that important to me? #as long as I can afford groceries and clothes and a home.... 🤷🏼 save up here and there for a little treat of some kind #I just don't get it. making 100k 500k six figures etc is so so so important to sooo many people (not just my coworkers) #and I'm over here wondering what the fuck you even do with that much money #what purpose does it serve. savings? #maybe I'm just showing my whole ass here and everyone will read this and be like 'please shut up you don't get it' #but money talk is everywhere at work and online and in the world #and I just thought we agreed there were other measures of success that were more important #I thought we all knew money mattered to be healthy and safe but that in the end didn't mean more #I thought idk people wanted jobs to support them but that mostly people went into things like science because they want to help the world #am I just a fucking idiot?

one of my oldest memories is from when i was about five or six years old. my grandma was visiting that evening, so she was tucking me into bed. now, my parents raised us agnostic with a side of unitarian universalism, so i knew next to nothing about christianity, or that god fellow, or whatever. my grandparents never approved of this, convinced they were damning us kids to hell forever.

so when my grandma was tucking me in and she told me to repeat after her and say “i love you jesus,” i did.

but then she said: “there. and now you’ve let jesus into your heart.” and kissed me and left me to dream sweet child dreams probably of jesus saving my immortal soul or whatever.

except, i didn’t know who the fuck jesus was, and i did not understand metaphor. i certainly had not realized that by saying that, i had apparently invited a small man to take up residence in my heart. my child brain raced with panic: was he in there? what would he do? would i be able to feel him moving around? was he stuck forever now? that seemed mean to him, and felt like my grandma had played a trick on me.

so, sensibly, i decided my best bet to expel this tiny man who i had NOT wanted to move into my heart (aside from surgery, which i discounted as an option when i imagined asking my parents about it) was to do the reverse incantation: i fell asleep that night mumbling and mentally shouting I HATE YOU JESUS I HATE YOU JESUS I HATE YOU JESUS, hoping he would get the message and relocate somewhere that wanted him.

When joking about how ridiculous it is that Fabian is popular I don’t think people realize how insanely cool the bad kids are in universe. As viewers we see their cool moments but we also see them being dorks and lame idiots. Think about their in universe reputations and how you would react to hearing about them if you lived in the same world as them.

There is a group of six people who saved the world 3 different times before they even entered their junior year of high school.

One of them never showed up to any of their classes until their third year and still passed. She is a rockstar and arch devil of rebellion who owns a recording studio in hell where she plays the bass.

One dude threw the greatest party the entire high school has ever seen, is captain of the sports team, and killed the school’s evil principal without facing any punishment.

One performed a motorcycle kick-flip that was doing a jump off of a mansion’s roof into a pool of flaming tartar sauce. Said kick-flip student has created a god, killed that god, brought herself back from the dead, and resurrected a completely different god.

One of the girls is the chosen oracle of all elves and punched her dad so hard he instantly died. Also if you dig deep enough into the political history books it turns out she caused there to be a feud (bordering on full war) between her home nation and the nation she currently lives in.

The quietest kid of the bunch is a super genius who invented a solar lasso that captured and contained an eldritch horror into his van, took 4 years of high school all at once and passed all of them, is currently acing his arcane mechanics and physical Ed studies, and is the second hand man on the school sports team. He also is the drummer for the arch devil’s band and launched a fully working satellite into space before he even started studying arcane mechanics.

Finally the “dork” of their group is an arcane consultant of heaven, became a P.I. after freshman year, is currently in every extra-curricular school club, and is beloved by seemingly all of his underclassmen. Also after he found out that the dragon his party was fighting ate his dad he fucking ATE IT to avenge him.

Obviously we know the truth behind all of these things and the actual way these six dorks act, but think how insanely sick they all sound in universe.

me when I realize that when I start working, if I go the way I plan to I will learn what it means to experience burnout in it's truest form

#cal talks #I'm taking the year off so that I can work and build up enough in my savings to at least be able to manage a semester of living debt free #my plan going in is to work a hell of a lot of over time #which I know is gonna burn me out (working twelve hour days and then sleeping twelve hours doesn't sound like fun but oh well) #BUT I have a shit ton of saving to do and am trying to fast track it #having done the math #in order to get all of the tech-y stuff I need I have to save roughly 4.5k after taxes #BUT I want to save closer to six thousand because then I have a teeny tiny bit of wiggle room #and if my math is off then the 1.5k cushions however much it's off by
