#and see the irony here

I believe July is trying to tell you something, Nico.

#NEW HYPERFIXATION EVERYONE #trigun #trigun stampede #vash the stampede #vashwood #nicholas d wolfwood #wolfwood #I'm new here I don't know the tags help #tristamp #vash x wolfwood #trigun meme #trimax #vashwood week #Funny how these things work #I had no idea of what trigun was about #Then I see like ONE picture of Wolfwood and I'm like #This is it. You're the one. My favourite character ever. I love you. #And then I look up what the series is about. #Crazy that Nico actually fits my type of character to a t #Dark gloomy type who hides behind irony and sarcasm and dark humor? Check. Childhood trauma? Check. #Unknown intentions at first but eventually falls in love with the one they should/must betray? Check. #He was made for me. I know it. #So uh. #I should really really look up the tags for this. #trigun 98 #I guess. #Time to do field research #Btw is there a discord for Trigun/Vashwood stuff? There must be. I want in. #tristamp vash #I did this in like 30 min and TOMBI was playing in my head the entire time. I need help. The series's great but the song is killing me.

a maedhros for @irrealisms !!! I've drawn maedhros once before so I don't have super solid headcanons for him but I hope you like it!

#maedhros #silm art #silmarillion #silmarillion fanart #i keep giving characters buns i need to stop doing that #i didn't give him facial scars bc in my head sauron didn't get that far before morgoth got mad and stuck him on the cliff #like i think sauron was saving his face for last on account of the irony of maedhros' name referring to his beauty #anyway thank you so much for all the requests everybody!!!! im excited to see how many of them i can get done!! #they'll probably be doodles of varying quality and complexity #candlesart #here down in the valley

#rachel grey #jean grey #x men #w.me #my art #quickest and sloppiest comic of my LIFE but i just need this scene out of my head #see the irony here is that jean is unaware of/not acknowledging the ways rachel's relationship w scott got tough #also i do love that in x-factor scott is immediately like. why would it be so bad for us to have a kid? #like way to miss the point but also he is the parent who has responded to what rachel wants best. historically. #anyway #my comics

Since atla is again having an extra surge of popularity, I'm shooting my shot:

[ID: (Rest of image description in alt). At the bottom of the image sits the text: "Zuko: Okay. Well, I can't remember how it starts, but the punchline is "leaf me alone, I'm bushed."" ID end].

Did we ever find out what the setup for this joke was? I feel kinda haunted by it. If not- anyone wanna make their best or worst guesses?

edit: I now know what "I'm bushed" mean, but go ahead anyway 👍

haunted thoughts in tags ↓

#atla #the way I was early out for this next surge in popularity 🤗 I was in a different phase by 2020 #it's not like it haunts me day and night but it does bother me thinking back on it. please tell me I'm not the only one 🧍‍♂️ #I'll have to reblog the 'closure is a myth' post jk #what kind... of joke is it? leaf pun on leave i get. I'm bushed however I dont get. it implies the punchline sayer is a bush at least I #think. but what prompts the 'i am bushed' I dont get. is it not contextual? is it a phrase ive not connected like 'leaf me alone'? #is there anotger layer between leaf and bush? again what kind of joke (social:joke purpose. what is funny? only pun?) + (in-joke set up)? #is it about the kind of bush it is? is it between two plants? the plant & someone picking on the plant like a teamaker collecting? #is it about a plant that has grown into bush and thus (somethingsomething)?? is it not a plant at all? other elements? iroh *what*. #if the creators actually had a setup in mind- I fear it will be lame. but yet I am haunted #it must have cracked someone up for him to try relay it. (set in term of endearment here) 🧍‍♂️👈 *poking him* #either way. me 🤝 zuko @ being bad at remembering & relaying jokes 😁👍 #at least in that instance anyway #I mainly stick to irony & sarcasm. running along with an mistaken assumption or replying w something silly & blowing it out of proportions. #puns if I'm lucky. ect. fun when I can reference it later tho I try not to overdo it. not like I'll likely remember it for too long anyway #now to lay in wajt see if anything happens.... #avatar the last airbender #zuko #atla zuko #a:tla #my rambles #its lie and not lay is it not.....

When Kazuki watches Rei and Miri from the park bench and starts reminiscing about the life he almost had, I lost it.

“At the end of the day, I just wasn’t cut out for it.”

YES YOU WERE! ITS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU!!!

#I think this scene really shows kazuki’s fear in getting too attached to people and moments #i don’t even think he’s making the connection either #but subconsciously something about seeing rei and miri interact in this moment and in this setting reminds him of SOMETHING! #LOOK AT HIS EYES! he needs a hug so bad :( #i lost it here. I literally screamed because the irony is too good #the things you only catch on the rewatch… #keeping the buddy daddies friday alive by rewatching but this time im taking notes #buddy daddies #kazurei #riz rambles:bd

i have a special place in my heart for "show don't tell" storytelling, especially in comic books. comics are a visual medium!

#tim drake #jack drake #comic ref in description #this is the last panel of the comic #and something i really like about it is that i feel like... it has a certain amount of respect for the reader? #you might not notice/get the irony of the batsignal showing up behind them #and the way the batsignal foreshadows that actually this /isn't/ a resolved happy ending #because the conflict between bruce and jack - and more directly between tim's values/priorities vs. his dad's - #hasn't actually been resolved even though they're both sorry and hugging #which means the conflict will inevitably occur again and again and again #which is a very clever grace note here #but if you don't notice that's okay! the comic isn't panicking trying to spell it out for you #if you catch it it's fine and if you don't catch it that's also fine #it has something that i really like about a lot of older comics and sometimes find missing in new ones (at least the ones abt the blorbos) #which is that it assumes that the /readers/ can realize things abt the situation that the /characters/ don't #i read both tim and his dad as both perfectly sincere in this reconciliation - they're caught up in the moment #and physically neither of them can see the batsignal #but we-the-readers can see both the batsignal and the looming future conflicts it implies even though they don't #the narrative isn't telling you what to think! no character emerged to announce 'But In Fact Tim You Still Have A Problem!' #instead the artist has just left the batsignal there and let you make the obvious inferences ON YOUR OWN #similarly in nightwing 110 (another one of my favorites) there's a conversation between dick and tim where they're both lying #if you're only a nightwing reader you know dick is lying but you probably won't figure out that tim is lying (or at least not the extent) #but if you /do/ read tim's comics then you understand what's going on in a way that neither of the characters do #there's just a general understanding that the characters are not fully self-aware nor do they perfectly understand each other #plus the gradual / slow-build / layered conflict #tim's mixed loyalties between bruce and his dad are a constant background slow burn tension #dick's complicated feelings about loving tim but also feeling a little threatened by him are also a low-key thread in the nightwing comics #the writers don't need to have a surprise! sudden! fight! nor do they need all-fluff-all-the-time #instead these tensions are mostly dormant except when they get exacerbated by extreme situations #there are plenty of things that 90s comics do *not* handle well but the character voices and longform style always draw me back <3

u know what’s actually kind of funny about waiting so long for twp? all we do is always talk about how painful it is for ty and kit to be separated for three years and here we are waiting for twp for more than DOUBLE that time meaning we somewhat actually have first-hand experience of their suffering😭

#like it’s gonna be 6 years since qoaad this year… #and tlkof isnt supposed to be out this year but in like 2 years probably… #that means we are gonna do 8 years of waiting… #and that’s 5 years more than kitty’s separation like??? #im SORRY #i am unwell #and this sounds like i’ve kinda lost my mind #(side note: i have after seeing the predicted releases) #but we be doing some mathematics up in here #and it hurts #but there really is some irony in all this ngl #kit herondale #ty blackthorn #kit x ty #kitty #the last king of faerie #the wicked powers #tlkof #twp #tsc

men will hold a bass guitar and suddenly feel the irresistible compulsion to take over the band and then sue everyone in it

#two nickels #its like that breaking bad crack theory 'walter white's hat is cursed and when he puts it on it makes him evil' #this parallel makes it extra funny that david was good friends with paul mccartney... do you see the irony here buddy #roger waters #paul mccartney

#Seeing the dune part 2 american centric red carpet and as a devoted aficionado of the books and yk a moroccan person here are my 2 cents #Dune was one of the few Western works inspired by MENA culture that that felt genuine and respectful #But ofc despite the profound symbiosis with Middle Eastern and North African culture evident within the pages of the novels #the movie adaptation lack of substantive representation from these communities both in on-screen portrayals and within production roles was #very much disappointing in part 1 and i doubt there are any change now #While drawing inspiration from the Amazigh peoples of Algeria and Morocco #the film barely skims the surface of its MENA influences leaving substantial potential untapped #Herbert openly acknowledged the profound impact of Islam and MENA culture on his noveIs #from the metaphorical representation of Spice as oil #to the allegorical parallels drawn between the occupation of Arrakis and real-world MENA geopolitics #By marginalizing Arabs from the narrative fabric of Dune the essence of the story is being undermined particularly its anti-colonial core #the irony of this is kiIIing me because this was a direct resuIt of us impérialism on the middIe east #But the reality is that Dune is an American production tailored for an American audience so it makes sense for it to be what it is now #a big production running from its original essence #What adds to my disappointment is the fact that I liked Villeneuve's adaptation of Incendies and I had what you call foolish hope hfhg #Dune feIt Iike a squandered opportunity to authentically depict the cultural milieu that inspired it #Given the narrative's inherent anti-colonial themes #the omission of Arab and North African voices dilute its message if any of it is even left #without representation from Arabs and Amazigh people the cultural essence becomes another appropriated resource watered down to an aestheti #rather than serving as a critique of the destructive actions of colonialists seeking power and dominance #the narrative becomes susceptible to distortion and co-option by the very entities it was intended to condemn and hold accountable

papenist readings? papenist readings.

so many of the newer successful dark academia books are founded on donna tartt’s dark academia aesthetics in the secret history, even when the entire point of the secret history is that aesthetics are pleasing yet entirely illusionary. the secret history manages to simultaneously brandish the aesthetics it criticizes which is its biggest feat – the novel literally opens with the protagonist admitting his fatal flaw is, you guessed it, aesthetic beauty. so it’s kind of funny and yet a little tragic how an entire subgenre has spawned out of a papenist (yes, I just made that word up) reading of the secret history that tauts aesthetic beauty when donna tartt was always warning us against our inner, yunno, papenism.

#i know there’s better words for the way richard sees the world btw – could we perhaps call him an aesthete? #idk if that word accounts for his stupidity enough #not my expertise #but yeah #you get the point #a lot of meta ironies in here #if we were villains you will pay!!! #the secret history #tsh #donna tartt #richard papen #dark academia #dark academia blog #dark academia books #book blog #henry winter #poc dark academia

The irony of Meghan being given an award from the 'Ms. Foundation'

"Ms. = to show women are equal regardless of their marital status" (from their website)

Whilst using her husband's title, the Duchess of Sussex 😭😭😭😭

social anxiety can be so funny sometimes because i’ll be talking to someone and they’ll go offline for whatever reason and i’m always like ‘oh no did I say too much’ when I said probably one of the most average things i’ve ever said to that person

#me n my irls sharing Way too much and then i’ll go ‘omg that’s so cool’ and worry if i’m too forward #the irony is that I keep forgetting i’m having a conversation and accidentally leave the conversation for like half an hour and come back #way later for another unrelated reason and only then will I remember #i’m a huge hypocrite and I am aware of this #regardless #wren wrambles #social anxiety #does this count as a vent #I don’t think so cause i’m mostly just laughing at myself here HKFHD #this is queued btw #I do have a tag for that but a single q amongst all these tags would probably look accidental so I thought i’d mention it #q #see that looks like I misclicked #anyway

El saying this, in a letter filled with lies, makes the line come off as naive... which makes me feel like Jonathan and Nancy are not going to go to college together...

#byler #stranger things #'i am so excited to see you it's hard to breathe! are you excited too?' #gotta be the most chaotic example of them hiding the truth behind el's naivety about the truth #bc while she does know she is lying about certain things #there are misconceptions around her that she is misinterpreting #and the irony is terrifying #it's possible jonathan and nancy are still endgame #and yet #her words here read as naive in the same way she thought her and mike were going to have the best spring break ever #it's basically a big ol oh honey you've got a big storm coming
