rage.

#welcome to today's episode of “me trying to draw 76 different emotions at once” #rage+grief???sorrow??? anguish????? #hmmmmmmm #definitely pain #and a hint of fear #no but like he's angry but there's sadness underneath you get what i'm saying #the kind of rage caused by something that left you traumatized and you just can't stop thinking about how unfair it was #like “i didn't deserve this nobody deserves this” kind of rage #well anyway #i don't even care about anatomy at this point #just let me see how much i can distort the face and still have it somewhat resemble the character #didn't mean to draw him crying again but my hand slipped oops #astarion #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 astarion #baldurs gate 3 #astarion fanart

Zionists want you to conflate Judaism and Zionism. Zionists want you to believe that Judaism cannot exist without Zionism and that all Jews are Zionists. Zionism would have Jews believe that a Jewish state is the only way that they can be safe from antisemitism and will point to any instance of antisemitism as proof that Zionism is the solution- so Zionism wants gentiles to be antisemitic in their support of Palestine. They want you to conflate all Jews with Zionism and the state of Israel, and they want you to treat all Jews regardless of political affiliation as the face of Israel. Antizionist Jews exist, and incidences of antisemitism ostensibly acting against Zionism will not help dismantle the forces propping Zionism up.

Don't do their work for them.

#red rambles #viva palestina #antizionism #i haven't actually seen a lot of antisemitism personally. not recently anyway. but that's more a feature of me not following antisemites #i DO however see a lot of people talking about the people they're seeing throw their support behind antisemites using palestine #as an excuse to conflate all jews with israel #and i cannot stress enough that that is literally what israel and zionist forces abroad WANT. #i am jewish. my entire family is jewish. i want to see palestine free. and i have SEEN how the jewish community gets conflated with israel #both from the inside and out #and i am dead serious when i say that every time someone is antisemitic it strengthens the conviction from people abroad #that it's a terrible sad situation but there's 'no other choice' #if you're being antisemitic you are doing the enemy's work for them. Stop it. #like... look. i am putting this in the tags bc im talking in the tags but i mean this. I do not give a single flying fuck if you personally #are a giant raging antisemite at the moment. Your personal beliefs are your problem and not mine. I do not fucking care. But if you are #being openly and loudly antisemitic *in your support of palestine* you are absolutely not fucking helping. I am so dead serious right now #if you want to raise awareness and you're being antisemitic because of deep held beliefs or whatever i want you to look around and read the #fucking room. Do you understand how much of Israel's international support comes from the idea that they are the only country where jews ar #safe from antisemitism? do you see how every time palestine comes up people point at incidences of antisemitism in anti-genocide actions to #discredit the entire movement? do you not understand how your actions are cutting the movement down at the knees? #i'm jewish and proud of it. i don't like antisemitism. but there's a genocide on and i'd rather work against it than quibble over who i #work alongside. i dont fucking care. you can be as antisemitic as you like in private. stop fucking the movement up. #there are bigger things to worry about here. if i can put aside my own concerns as to who i'm talking to you can hold your tongue #and fight the good fight instead of handing weapons to the people who are trying to fucking flatten gaza.

when a lovely flame dies, smoke gets in your eyes

OR: what were we supposed to take away from episode 3 if not ‘bucky is a war widow’

#masters of the air #motaedit #hbowaredit #bucky egan #john egan #clegan #like it's genuinely a 1:1 parallel and i'm NOT supposed to read bucky in ep4 as a grieving widow??? #this kind of also turned into a rumination on how willfully optimistic bucky is that they'll both make it through the war #(he has no other choice. his heart couldn't take another—) #hence the titular smoke getting in his eyes. you understand #he's blinded by love and then by rage. and i adore him #this ended up being more of a video essay than an amv so i hope people enjoy it!! #i had a really good time making it and i'm really proud :') #particularly the sequence of him seeing the bomb in london -> seeing the bomb in germany -> the sunset in algiers #also clearly continuing my mission of making mota amvs to big band / jazz :))) #ANYWAY. #kbsd.amv

the way i would pay for oliver to write meta about buck's character

#like. he Gets it. i've been thinking about buck in this ep for five days straight and he said it better in one sentence than any paragraph #i could ever come up with #people are arguing over whether buck #acted the way he did bc he wanted tommy's attention or eddie's attention or bc he was feeling left out or whatever but i don't think it's #any one thing i think it was just a general feeling of Wrongness when tommy showed up borne from thirty years of repressing his sexuality #and he tried to rationalize it as jealousy or whatever and worked through the fact that his behavior was completely unreasonable but #it wasn't until tommy kissed him that all of the rage that was trapped inside him was allowed to escape bc he finally had a name for it #he's been turning over parts of himself for years trying to find that final piece and getting more and more upset when it eludes him #n this kiss was the kind of cathartic relief that he so desperately needed bc it allowed him to understand what's been missing #anyway. oliver stark i love you so much i'm so grateful you play buck #buck #rae.txt #911

Reprogrammed AU Minicomic

Whoever set off that villain alarm better be prepared to get the most brutal Wild Kratts intervention

#wild kratts #reprogrammed au #wk reprogrammed au #chris kratt #martin kratt #wild kratts fanart #technically not spoilers because theres no guarantee this exact scene will happen in the fanfiction #but i thought it was silly #so i wanted to draw it anyways #Aviva proceeds to disassemble the entire alarm system out of rage with a paperclip #they are seriously considering knocking Chris out with a frying pan #mostly kidding.... but it's definitely crossed their minds at least once #Martin's look of “If you wake him I'm going to either kill you or break down crying” #is very reminiscent of a new parent who hasn't had a proper rest in a month and finally put their kid to sleep

if i was the cast of 911, i would blow up fox headquarters btw. as a little treat. like fuck them forever. fuck you fuck you fuck you, you bitches NEVER deserved them. you never deserved these characters, you never deserved these stories, and you sure as SHIT never deserved ryan, jen, oliver, kenny, peter, angela and aisha. fuck you forever i hope your shitty racist conservative ass station goes up in flames and that every single exec that stood in the way of telling these stories, or letting these characters/actors exist and breathe in a way that feels comfortable and natural to them, either steps on a lego or can't drink water without it having a weird aftertaste for the rest of their lives. go to hell. i will write you a ticket myself. ugly ass bitches.

Anyways! Let's talk about things that actually matter.

What are your guys' favorite things about the QSMP so far? Here are some of mine:

When Slime asked if QSMP had any fun mods and Vegetta went "Yes let me show you! :D" then blew him up with a landmine

Luzu and Phil calmly chatting and mining together until Phil casually mentioned he had a 5 year Hardcore world and Luzu lost his mind

When the boys didn't believe Jaiden's story about hearing a lady in the wall, then all of them screaming when they saw Osito Bimbo

Charlie calling Roier and Mariana "my kind of people" :')

Watching Foolish slowly lose his sanity as he works on his dragon build

Quackity saying he's excited to see what Phil builds vs. Phil building the ugliest dirt house I've ever seen on the top of the wall

Wilbur asking Roier, "Have you ever heard of L'Manburg?"

Everyone complimenting Quackity and saying how incredible the cutscenes were meanwhile Wilbur's cutscenes are loading at 160p

The duck warning them not to press the giant red button and Vegetta ZOOMING to the wall to press it

Luzu explaining how the word "pussy" comes from "pusillanimous" and Jaiden immediately saying "I love the pussy lore"

#i talk #qsmp talk #anyways! #I'd add links to the clips of all of these but I'm on mobile rn #Overwhelming my rage and disgust with my unbridled love for this series

I feel like we as a fandom had a lot of this conversation during Campaign 2 but redemption, however you may interpret it, is a process. It is not a binary of redeemed and not redeemed. And in the world of a D&D actual play, a lot of the hard decisions really come down to "is the harm this person did actively ongoing, or is it a past action with ongoing ramifications" and "will they stop doing this continued harm quickly enough for it to matter." It sounds cold to say that it's a risk-benefit analysis, but on some level, it has to be be. I think Bor'Dor was likely redeemable in some abstract sense, but could Team Issylra do it with the time and resources they had without risking their own lives? Probably not. I think the same is true with Liliana: if they had months in which to do this - and they have been contacting her on and off for a couple months, and every effort failed - maybe, but the clock's run out.

#like. i think the liliana v. essek discussion is a very thorny one though one i'm personally willing to have #but a big part of it is that his great transgression was already in the past and he hadn't done much more other than cover it up since #so it's like. yeah they can give him that time #i also tbh think that the fact they found out about him just before the peace talks was a major factor #if the war was still raging...perhaps the response would have been very different #critical role #cr spoilers #cr discourse #anyway. the coin flip should always land on its side.

I.. i just rewatched the love you want video because i needed exact reference for the sword.. and it only reached my brain that Vessel has a fucking wakizashi in it, not a katana or a tachi. He uses a fucking wakizashi you guys. That fuckin man.. arrrrggghhhh. It's infuriating -in the best way possible- how much attention to detail can be there with this collective. It's a backup weapon for close quarters and mainly beheading opponents. Which he tries to do btw with the dancers. BUT ALSO for harakiri sometimes. WHAT HE IS FORCED TO DO BEFORE THE LOOP BEGINS ANEW. HOW HAVE I MISSED THIS ALL THIS TIME.

#i'm hesitant to call it full on seppuku because as far as i know seppuku is used when it's ritualistic and harakiri is just the act #but i might be wrong there it's been a while since i was deep into japanese stuff #i also know that tanto was the main delivery weapon for it but wakizashis were definitely used for it as well. that i also know. #and it is a music video he cannot run around with a knife he'd look stupid #especially with how tall he is #anyway #i don't even know how to tag this #levynn raging about having only half a braincell #or levynn goes feral because swords #or something like that #oh and #sleep token #obviously

Why do a solid 7% of wordle players use "adieu" as their opening word. It's coward behavior. It has no personality. It's unoriginal. It's not even a strong opening word. It will rarely if ever tell you where the vowels go, which means it's useless considering you already know there will be a vowel or two involved, and there are only five to choose from. I don't even think it should count as a word for this purpose because it's not even really a loan word. It's fucking French.

#everyday I see that I am filled with petty former-logic-captain rage #I'm not even playing that strategically cuz I enjoy the chase but good lord #my previous opening word was lathe (as in 'of heaven' natch) but I just changed it to spite #because it's funny 😌 #anyway to be clear this is a joke but also it's not. #and if you are among the adieu users. just know I'm not mad. I'm just disappointed.

The racism in TMNT is a massive problem, not just looking at Splinter (and if I get started on the fandom we would be here for a while). There’s a side character in Rise, Hypno-Potamus, who is a whole mess of stereotypes about Romani people (his human design especially is a nightmare and as someone who is mixed Romani they really could’ve done better. They also could’ve done worse but I digress.) But yeah, just felt the need to point that out since no one else has and seeing you speak on the racism in TMNT reminded me of it. Hope you have a wonderful evening.

NO GENUINELY WITH HYPNO I THINK ABOUT THAT ALL TIME. it's something that always turns me off from his character because they had No Reason to base him off of Romani stereotypes. They could have just made him a funky magician and it would have changed nothing, but they just Had To Do something racist. What was the point??

And it just loops back around to all this other racist shit that tmnt can get away with, just because it's tmnt. Like on a meta level, WHERE ARE THE JAPANESE ARTISTS. Where are the Japanese show runners and voice actors, why is there so little connection to Japanese culture when Ninja is IN THE DAMN NAME. It feels like there's NOTHING being done to try and move away from the orientalist, westernization of their Japanese heritage. Fuck, MUTANT MAYHEM WAS ENTIRELY ABOUT THAT. The only reason they had any attachment to Asia was through western pop culture and movies.

Something that just, god it makes my blood fucking boil, is how the only tmnt media that tried to remedy this, from the beginning, was ROTTMNT. (And there are still! So many racism issues! Ghost Bear's entire character (WTF), Hypno's design. So much other shit.) The show which is largely hailed as the worst iteration. And I am so terrified for what that means for the way Japanese culture is treated in the future of tmnt.

#Anyways I'm glad me talking abt this reminded you of it cause this shit has gotta stop being ignored LOL #jonahs lemonade stand #sorry if it felt like I was ignoring the issue with hypno for most of this . I'm not romani so I can't rlly speak on it ^^ #but u should totally talk abt it more . there srsly should be way more conversation about tmnts racism #rise tag #racism mention #mixed kid rage

EMRYS TARIAN. human, acolyte, paladin, oath of devotion & follower of tyr.

born to peasants in a village a ways outside baldur's gate, emrys was sent as a child to be raised under the priests of tyr at a nearby temple. intended to become a cleric, there she studied law, history, religion, and martial skills. at the age of eighteen, she was sent to further her education in baldur's gate. she returned home to find her home in flames, & the last of raiders pillaging the small village. there, she swore an oath, promising to uphold the tenets of tyr and her oath, of justice, honor, loyalty, if he give her the power to smite down the ones who ransacked her home. ever since then she's upheld her oath, though she feels the ever-present stirrings of rage inside her. impulses toward violence, deception, and uncharitableness take hold of her in low moments, and she feels her faith faltering with every instance of mortal cruelty she comes across in her journey. she directs her anger toward those she feels deserve it most, and tries to adhere to the ideas of the greater good, though it's only a matter of time before she slips.

Ao no Flag (SERIES FINALE SPOILERS!!)

Seriously, don’t read this if you are planning to read Ao no Flag. That being said, go read the manga now!!

Finally finished reading Ao no Flag and I have so many feelings. Non-coherent, rambly, messy feelings. I was looking at reactions online and what mainly boggles me about the reactions to the final 2 chapters is people being “how is Taichi suddenly gay??” My friend living on this big planet he never was (he’s bi). He most likely just realized it later in life. Did the events of his 3rd HS year help him figure it out? Heck yes. Is he suddenly bi? No.

Not all queer people pop out into this world and instantly know they are queer. Heck, it took me 23 years to figure that out. It’s not like Taichi instantly realized he likes Touma and started dating him. He knew Touma mattered to him somehow, but it took him multiple years to realize how, as evident by him maybe starting his relationship with Touma after 5 years when Touma contacted them all. He gained life experience and grew.

People go through a lot of learning, unlearning and growing. Especially if you are outside of societal expectations and norms. Taichi grew up learning to and wanting to blend in with society. “Be normal, don’t stand out too much”. Add to that low self-confidence and you feel stuck. Feel like there is only black and white. only one right answer to life. It can be very difficult to look out of this dark box, trust me, I had a tough time and sometimes still do. But it feels like Taichi thought and thought and pondered even back in high school and came to the decisions that he did.

And isn’t that what the series is about? growing as a person, making mistakes, learning, allowing yourself to be visible and vulnerable, and eventually, making choices, even if they don’t make sense to anyone else, and continuing to do so?

These two pages really hit me hard and I was wondering why. And then it hit me. This is possibly the happiest I’ve seen Taichi be since his childhood. Like genuinely happy. He’s reached max happiness points and is sharing those with Touma. He’s made his choices, and he’s happy. You can and are allowed to choose what or who makes you happy.

That’s all that matters.
