#also. i did in the funniest way

[bisexualalienss]

thinking about the time i literally busted my head open as a kid and waited an hour to tell my mom because she was on the phone. the anxiety was there all along huh

#i mean. okay i just needed stitches #but i was bleeding heavily because you know. head wound #also. i did in the funniest way #we had this like metal staircase railing on the basement stairs when i was a kid #so i went running down stairs to watch fetch with ruff ruffman #and banged my head in the sharp edge of the railing #iconic #also shows you how clumsy i am

good omens fans: "the gays are winning!"

the gays:

#yes but at what cost #we've transitioned from bury your gays to separate them in the most heart wrenching way possible #and i DON'T think that's just neat #yes this is about good omens #but also ofmd #they ofmd'd us #nah but i really enjoyed season 2 fr #also ngl but I missed hastur #he was one of the funniest mf from season 1 #good omens #good omens spoilers #good omens 2 spoilers #ineffable husbands #aziraphale x crowley #ALSO MORE SPOILERS HERE BUT #i feel like the only person that did NOT pick up on the whole gabriel x beelzebub thing from the first season #like did everybody just see something that i didnt or what #anyways stream season 2 so we can get season 3 and the happy ending we DESERVE

She is so

#tales of the abyss #friend has been streaming undub abyss and boy what a game #all the stuff i forgot about + the nuances and whimsy brought about by the jp voice acting is such a treat #could this be the funniest tales of game??? #like really all the pre-akzeriuth stuff. it never stops. they're constantly being silly. #you can tell the writers were (justifiably) scared you'd drop the game because of all the exposition and fon-babble #but it works??? honestly?? and the jokes also tell you a lot about the characters obviously #everyone has their own way of dealing with the human disaster that is Luke and it's such a joy to witness #uuuhhh anyway whens the remake coming out (theres no remake coming out) #also big shout out to the uuhh character animations?? it's very lively and unapologetically cartoonish #and then theres the. the everything. the theeeeeeemes. so many theeeeemes. how did they fit all these different themes

i think one of my fave jay/mal leadership moments is in d1 when jays like ‘hey it’s not so bad here actually maybe we could stay’ and mal’s like ‘ARE YOU FUCKING INSANE.’ bc. obviously mal has the pressure from maleficent to steal the wand etc etc so her judgement is going to be clouded by that but jays been like ‘auradon has nice weather, nice food, it’s safe, our parents aren’t here, and the others seem happy :)’ and has reached the conclusion that they should stay. and obviously he’s right at the end but i really love that moment as the two of them regrouping and consulting each other and discussing their next move & how it showcases their position/dynamic within the gang

#ESPECIALLY how we don’t see mal discuss LEAVING the isle with jay in d2 #which is a whole separate thing i won’t go into #but. jal talking strategy my beloved #that scene is also good bc we get mal’s ARE YOU INSANE????? YOURE EVIL YOURE BAD NEWS’ which is the funniest pep talk ever #pov i tell the boy i am desperately in love with that everyone hates him and is scared of him and i like him that way #and jays ‘thanks mal :D i needed that :)’ like ok he wouldn’t fucking say thanks but did mal give jay evil pep talks often #anyway #descendants #jay son of jafar #mal bertha #jal #<- technically but not really but i’m going to say it is bc i’m crazy <3

(usually) white people screaming at me that it's hypocritical to see the nuance in and appreciate Valyria and the Targs (which are always weirdly conflated) because I'm native is just as ridiculous as calling me a hypocrite for watching Magnificent Century or choosing to not (weirdly) single out the Ottoman empire as the one true evil above all other empires in the real world.

Excuse me? They didn't colonize me. YOU did!

#the funniest part is they'll then whine “why did you say YOU?! You can't blame EVERYONE in a culture for the actions of their leaders!” #totally lacking self-awareness #yes i chose the ottomans for a reason #and that reason is that while the governing structure of Valyria mirrors the Roman Republic #The way they function in relation to the civilizations around them really has more parallels with the Ottoman empire #also you know - a lot of their aesthetics do which is why i find it sus that they're singled out #asoiaf #asoiaf fandom

I made the jli into marketable plushies again except different this time

#my art #blue beetle #ted kord #booster gold #guy gardner #green lantern #tora olafsdotter #beatriz da costa #stacking then was way harder than anticipated but i couldnt fit them in frame nicely otherwise #im torn on whether i like the guy plushie but i dont feel like changing it. so. #ted is my favorite. thats why i put him in the middle #hes also the first one i made months ago (it took me a while to finish all of them) #ive been using him as a model whenever i made stuff for other plushies #i have a pic of him in the ghostface hood. he looks better in it than danny does #i should make another one to finish the pyramid. obvious answer is j'onn but the funniest answer is g'nort #cant make max because you wouldnt be able to tell its him. worlds most generic white man #i have a list of ten million characters that i need to make eventually and getting into dc did not help #plushies

it's kinda weird that shadow is known as the guy that uses guns all the time when there's like. zero undeniably canon instances of him using a gun. as far as i can remember the only media where hes shown using guns is shadow the hedgehog (the game) and he has one on the boxart yeah but if i remember correctly he doesnt have one in any of the cutscenes except for the opening animation thing but i wouldnt consider that part of the story just a montage of things that Could happen depending on what choices you make. and within the actual levels there ARE weapons you can use but theyre not all guns and the one you use, if you even use one at all, is entirely up to you the player shadow doesn't just grab a gun and make you use it. and while using a gun definitely makes the game easier there are very few missions where it's actually a requirement. plus due to the nature of the choose your own path thing its unclear which missions actually happened so we dont even know if the parts where you have to use a gun happened for real. and after this one single game shadow never used a gun again as far as i know. this whole idea of shadow being obsessed with guns and using them all the time doesnt really have much canon basis if anything it makes more sense for tails to be known as the gun guy considering hes the one who actually uses weapons like all the time

#this isnt even about whether or not it would make sense for shadow to be comfortable using guns considering his trauma #this is about the fact that he doesnt actually use guns as much as people act like he does #like i have to wonder how many of these people actually know much about shadow? both the character AND the game #also tails being the guy who uses guns all the time is just way funnier. like imagine youre a sonic villain. or just a villain in general #the hero shows up to defeat you and all of a sudden their cute baby sibling who follows them around everyone pulls out a giant gun #and aims it at you #funniest thing ever #also if it was any other game that let you use a gun while playing as shadow id be like ok yeah thats canon he uses guns #but like . again in shadows game youre making a bunch of decisions for him and its unclear what he actually did in universe #and if the guns are never shown in any of the cutscenes. we dont know if he ever used them

SUPER DARK TIMES (2017) DIR. KEVIN PHILLIPS

also, honorable mention to the original script for this scene:

#super dark times #zach taylor #allison bannister #sam edits #they make me feel insaaaaaaaane. its so much. i just. AGH. because i mean obviously it's for the sake of Plot #but just the start of her 'I like Zach and am GONNA date him' agenda seeming to directly coincide with The Daryl Incident is so... tragic #the Zach from a few days earlier—the Zach in the basement giggling about how he likes her—was never the Zach that got to be #the center of her attention this way. but tbh the FUNNIEST explanation for this timing to me is the idea that him shouting 'PENIS' #outside her house while fucking around with Josh was the thing that pushed her to be like 'ok fuck it i want him and im gonna get him' #bc she DID call to invite him to her party that same night. it's unclear if she called before or after but. it def could have been after #also also also: the fact that this scene is the last time they see each other before the. stuff at Meghan's house. they talk on the phone #briefly after (in which she calls him an asshole under her breath because he's calling to ask for what she thinks is another girl's number) #which... much to think about there. especially with the script's original 'she gives up on him' line. agughghghh #(though in the script version they actually do see each other one more time. or. well. she sees him but he doesn't notice her)

I mean I don't wanna just be like 'finally, episode I actually liked' about the moffat episode but. like.

finally, an episode I actually liked!

No seriously, holy shit my man pulled exactly zero punches that was fucking excellent

#megan whines into the empty abyss of cyberspace #doctor who #it's wild it's like the distilled essence of moffat in the best but also funniest way possible #51st century? check #parents are significant? check #a biting social commentary and deep ambivalence to tech panaceas? check #very much felt like a 'hey did you miss me? here's a reference to everything I've ever done' moment #which I didn't hate by any means #and also just my good goddamn that's the most edge of my seat I've been in a while #what a good concept #the Doctor is stuck with one foot on a landmine for an hour and it keeps the tension the whole time #my god Ncuti's acting was fucking incredible as was 15's chemistry w Ruby #seriously what a good fucking episode

Why do you think Roier and Missa are easiest to understand? I found the same thing as someone who's just learning Spanish, and I wasnt sure if it was because I've watched so much Roier content that it influenced my ability to understand him, or if there's a deeper reason due to some regional accent differences being easier for non-native speakers to understand. I'm curious about your thoughts since you have really good insights into linguistics, but ignore this if it's too much for tumblr lol!

neither of them talk super fast, and imo their accents are fairly easy to understand-- for me, missa is easy to understand bc he's from the north and that region has accents i'm more familiar with, and roier's accent is somewhat neutral although obviously still clearly mexican and he uses a lot of slang. i think that also helps-- roier uses a lot of the same vocab, so if you're still learning spanish, you can pick up that slang and then understand quite a bit of what he's saying because he swears literally five times in a single sentence. they both speak pretty clearly and, additionally, i think most non-native spanish speakers, especially U.S. americans, are most familiar with mexican spanish rather than other dialects. so that's why someone like rubius or spreen is harder for nonnative speakers to understand, unless they're more familiar with spanish or argentine dialects specifically.

for me it's hard to parse bc i understand most of what they all say regardless since i've spoken spanish for so long, but i think rivers is just difficult because she speaks very fast. mariana is pretty easily to understand as well, there's just less for me to say about him tbh idr where he's from and i don't really have a hard time understanding him, i just watch him less than anyone else really.

for quackity, his accent is more noticeable, and his spanish is a little weirder, in that he is so bilingual and if you're not familiar with that way of speaking it can be hard to pick up what he's saying sometimes. this is partially why i wish there were a few more latino americans on the server so people get more familiar with that type of bilinguality-- i think quackity is in a unique position that he doesn't full share with other server members (aside from mouse, in that she is also a latino who lives in the states, although from a content perspective she doesn't do the same kind of bilingual split that q does nor does she stream in spanish), and i would be interested to see more of that kind of diasporic latino experience on the server. that's me rambling and doesn't have to do with accents i've just been thinking about it for a while and i think it would be cool. but yeah q phrases things funny sometimes because he's thinking of the english way of saying something or vice versa, and he is by far one of the most fluently bilingual members of the server, so it's an interesting dynamic for people watching him who aren't super familiar with spanish nor the kinds of calques and things that end up happening with bilingual speakers.

anyway back to your actual questions i do also think exposure does tip the scales lol most of us watch more roier than anyone else and esp for people just learning spanish, you're gonna understand him better than anyone else because of that. which is nice in some ways bc you learn a lot of slang but also if you're going to speak spanish in any kind of non-casual setting please do not talk like roier he is a fucking crazy person who swears so much it's actually unreal

#asks #anons #also this isnt me trying to label q as mexican american since he doesnt call himself that at all #just that he is a latino who lives (part-time) in the states so its a slightly different dynamic if that makes sense? idfk #labels are difficult im not trying to put any on q i just think that element of his life is important to acknowledge #when it comes to his bilingualism #also im not putting a value judgment on fluency levels its just very clear q is extremely fluent in both in a way most people aren't #sorry i have to give a billion caveats i dont want anyone to think im trying to be a dick or assume too much about ccs #and again im white us american and not latino myself #also unrelated to the rest of this but the funniest thing to me about qs accent in eng is how randomly he throws in east coast vowel change #like where did he get those. i need to know #anyway this is way more answer than was probably needed and i spent forever writing it #and now my nephew is here i have to go play with hotwheels

Marcel Hirscher coming out of retirement only to start for the Netherlands is so funny to me. Like I have seen so many comments of butthurt people (who probably base their whole identity on being Austrian). Lmao sucks for you, i am having a great time

#personally i thought there was so much annoying patriotism going on when Marcel Hirscher was active #so this is the funniest way for a comeback to me #also i did not know his mother is from the Netherlands but sure #alpine skiing

there comes a beautiful time in life where i have to ask myselg th question, "did i accidentally project too hard onto the character that i only relate to a little bit and in doing so hugely missed this one entire aspect/interpretation of the characters . am i stupid"

#ARE THEY STUPID! #dr who #this is about ten specifically his relationship w martha lmao #m being so serious i genuinely did not. see the 'ten was on purpose leading martha on to make her think her feelings were requited' angle #until going out into the wild and reading the tumblr posts. like i genuinely did not. at ALLLLLL. its like a brick hitting my head #bc the ENTIRE time s3 ten came off to me as 'doing stuff w no romantic intent behind it but would consistently get misinterpreted as such' #cuz IIIIIIIII have done this. IIIIIIII have run into this problem before. and it sucks so incredibly bad. #i actually do want to think my og interpretation still holds water cuz like. well i could gather all the evidence but #first one that comes 2 mind would be him going 'it's like when you fancy someone + they dont know you exist' to martha. in episode TWELVE #two routes; either ten is needlessly cruel and callous even after a season's worth of building up trust and friendship w her #or he is on super 'i dont think she has feelings for me and this is a very unhappy coincidence of a line' cocaine #Or the 'she fancied me' line in s4 to donna. either he is disregarding all the good and positive impact she did him. or the fact that this #went over his head the whole time made him look back on that time w discomfort <- I DID THIS. I MIGHT HAVE BEEN PROJECTING #THIS ONTO HIM. AM I STUPID.?.????? #you know how mikage rgu can either be read as an incel or a gay man lost so completely in the sauce #ten is like in this same ballpark. i think. of 'emotionally manipulative and disrespects women' or 'aroacespec and missed the cues' #funniest possible options to pick from. ten my brother how did you set yourself up like this #absolutely not denying that he was toxic and unhealthy during s3 in like 500 ways btw. but well. ths is the one concwpt that #flew over my head. so completely. and i can kind of see it now but i also still find it hard to incorporate into my belief system #bc its like. brother I'M aroace and missed the cues too lol #tangential note we can trace many problems down to a writer's room filled w white people not giving #martha's character the respect/agency she deserves for the existing narrative she has. bc they pulled this w mickey too both in series 1+2 #if they wanted to portray ten as manipulative then him and martha should've been given more screentime #together where martha (or anyone else) calls him the FUCK out on this. and ten would need to suffer narrative consequences of doing smth #as fucked up as that rather than his happy stable dynamic he has w donna. if they wanted to portray him as oblivious then marthas character #shouldn't have constantly been boiled down to an unrequited crush (particularly her dialogue in the s3 finale - there's a LOT more reasons #why she would choose to leave/why their dynamic was unhealthy besides ten not returning her feelings) #if you read all these tags you may be entitled 2 financial compensation #ten and martha #aspec doc tag

I just. I love my dad so much guys

#MAN OF ALL TIME he's so fuckin rad #he came over to help me set up my desktop (got a pc btw) and funniest man in existence here he touched my desk saw it wobble and went ''NO' #came back with his tools and an office chair for me because he saw the chair I was gonna use and went :/ #this man brought over an ENTIRE TOOLBOX just for me because I cannot for the life of me find where the old one went and just. fixed the des #that I had been struggling with for about eight months at this point. in like twenty minutes. and then set up my desktop for me #he also brought over a webcam and microphone without any sort of promoting just because he knows I do discord calls with my friends and gf #also I dug out the instructions for the desk and before I could even hand him the paper he was like ''so this is how we fix this'' #and then fixed it and was like ''yeah you did that wrong but you were close'' #and then was like ''dont buy furniture and stuff without letting me know first what you want I'll keep an eye out'' #and I was laughing being like ''I didn't want to come to you every time I need something because I want you to see me as independent'' #and he went ''you live by yourself of course I see you as independent'' and my bitches the way I almost cried right there #just. idk something something the way my families love languages have always been acts of service and gift giving #and my dad insisting I should rely on him more and giving me stuff I wanted but don't have without EVER TELLING HIM I wanted said things #just. my dad is so cool guys #sorry I saw my computer set up vibing on my desk and got completely overwhelmed #ignore me #not marvel related

i genuinely love my mom so much but its also like you are the most confusing person ever

#i dnt wanna overshare cuz i always do that lol but mothers day is coming upp... uh. soon #so i guess im just thinking about her. i genuinely love her so much. as alwayz its hard tho #she is also the funniest woman in the world to me. most people would say shes a horrible person #shes just rough around the edges. idk #one time she pointed at a couple outside and wz like “those two are so ugly; its like they were made for each other!!” #is it bad that i find humor in her meanness? shes just like. so funny to me #her negativity makes me laugh i guess xD #and if shes nice to you she genuinely means it. I think i love my mom a lot bc i see a lot of myself in her #shes very “split up” like me her opinions change all the time and im like. me too!!! #yes she can be fake but i think she genuinely does “flip/switch” a lot the way i do #and i never met anyone else other than my mom who so openly did that yknow #she can love and hate you at the same time. she simutaneously will love animals and hate them. gay ppl. ect #she seems to idk. be really inconsistent and fragmented like me and only now do I see it #i love my mom. i cant help it even with everything thats happened its like how can i not love someone who held me in her jacket #as it snowed outside before school? i cling so hard to that memory #i will be seeing family 2 times this month but i feel quite at peace with it right now #in april i was not thrilled at all but today im feeling some peace

being a supernatural fan is whatever the opposite of 'tumblr ruining reading comprehension' is, but it's just as horrible. not only are the curtains blue, but several different writers specified the different shades that these curtains are. the curtains are simultaneously turquoise and ultramarine. you might be tempted to go OH!!! MAYBE IT'S A METAPHOR FOR DIFFERING PERCEPTIONS OF THE SAME THING!!! but no, this isn't on purpose. the curtains just accidentally stumbled into a vague idea that MIGHT be deep. but it's really not. or it might be. only the curtains know. you're left either watching it in horror or in intrigue as everything accidentally connects like the world's most disastrously entertaining wine glass stack.

#supernatural #spn #it's SOMEWHAT coherent during the first 5 seasons but then it just absolutely spirals out of control the longer it goes #case in point the ENTIRETY of the destiel debacle from the bisexual lighting to their literal dialogue to the finale #the way that the show ended literally where it started???? a show that's supposed to be about breaking cycles??? #they quote unquote defeated chuck but then (gestures at finale) #also i think it is absolutely insane that one of their canon bisexual characters. one of the very first i think. if not the most prominent #and im talking about CHUCK btw bc let's be real dean was never confirmed bi #i think it's insane that a bisexual character who says he is bi and who other characters acknowledge as bi #goes from a decently benevolent though still somewhat shitty character who lets free will run wild and helps out multiple times #to an outright malicious final boss in a sudden heel face turn withot trackable change #like they probably did not do that on purpose. BUT THAT'S WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT. like HOLY SHIT the implications???FJDHDGDGSH #and then the suspected closeted bi character dies!!!! #spn funniest show ever. unmatched. unparalleled

Battle Network being the only MM series that I didn’t get deeply invested into that I still haven’t played most of the games is so funny despite this year basically being it’s year of relevancy again because I do know facts off handily about it and one of the things that jumpscares me every time I remember it is something that wasn’t even in the games: It’s the fucking fact in the anime they said “let’s make this a Tokusatsu” in like the fourth game arc onward and this will never not throw me off despite being the mf who’s favorite mm series is literally ZX.
