i kind of subconsciously expect everyone likes payjay just as much as i do but then i remember i've only encountered two other payjay fans who shipped them as hard as me and they still also shipped them with other characters

#juice.txt #payjay ii #nothing wrong with multishipping of course #but yeah i forget that most people aren't... obsessed #like you know how fantube is really popular #it's like that popular in my head #but logically that is NOT true lol #i think most people casually like it #i've never encountered a payjay hater #they're really just some guys. like they're just two mostly normal married men #i don't even know why i like them so much #they're not even my usual type of ship #i don't usually care about fluff and i really dislike the soulmates trope #but here i am making fluff for like the most soulmates trope ship ever #at least in my opinion they're like soulmates #i really love hotel oj and payjay and how sweet and comforting it is #might talk about it in another post because hotel oj genuinely feels like a heavenly pocket dimension to me #if that makes any sense

One of my favorite things about Leo’s portals is the fact that they’re tangible.

He can throw those like frisbees and hit people with them like?? The boys’ abilities are so fun and magical and even sci-fi-esque but this aspect of Leo’s portals are so distinctly a Looney Tunes flavor of cartoon-y that I absolutely adore.

And sure this aspect of the portals can be used for fighting, but moreover the sheer amount of visual gags this does and can create is infinite.

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt leo #rise leo #Leo’s abilities include hammerspace and portable holes like how cartoony can u get I love it #listen I’m telling you above all else the boys’ abilities are closely tied cartoon logic and I think that’s beautiful #sure the superhero scifi and fantasy/magic genres are super present for their abilities too but the looney tunes cartoon nature of them? #yeah that’s where they SHINE #‘rottmnt is bad bc it goes against what tmnt is-‘ it is quite literally the closest we have to the 1987 show imo #let my boys be fun and crazy cartoon characters #no but fr plz read the cartoon physics superpower wiki page and see how many of those apply to the boys lol #their true power- being silly little guys :3

hot take but I think a lot of current fantasy has lost the "what the heck" nonsensical vibes and that's why a lot of it is so bad

#people are so obsessed with 'being like tolkien' that they forget that a key part of fantasy #is the magic and wonder and inexplicable occurences #some things we need to accept on faith and move on #like you don't NEED to understand the mechanics of portals to other worlds or magic #or have a logical realistic fantasy realm #it's fantasy!! it's by definition UNREALISTIC and WEIRD and INEXPLICABLE #tolkien himself said something along the lines of 'if you explain how it works #it's not magic anymore' #(somewhere in on fairy stories I think) #but the point is that I actually could not care less about whether your fictional languages and histories etc etc #are realistic or sensible #if I wanted to read about a different culture or language or place I'd pick up a regular fiction novel #fantasy means that there's magic and things beyond our ken #lots of things will not and should not make sense #(logically. they should make sense in terms of fantasy) #(paraphrasing from sir terry here but it's unrealistic and nonsensical #for the third brother to succeed or for the sword to be pulled from the stone or for kindness and bravery to always win the day) #(but in a fantasy that is what makes sense; the illogical) #someday I'll write up my discord rant on modern fantasy as a true essay but it is not this day lol

Lord Indra, the natural hero who never was

or why Sasuke and Madara always shine despite the whole plot in their disadvantages.

Hero : a mythological or legendary figure often of divine descent endowed with great strength or ability. b : an illustrious warrior. c : a person admired for achievements and noble qualities. d : one who shows great courage.

Going out of my MGA writing retreat cave for a sec and share with you some of my researches...I don't have great knowledges of vedic texts and Indian culture but to what I read so far (correct me if I'm wrong) Indra is the King of the devas and Heaven. In similar fashion, Zeus king of other gods in Greek mythology. Indra controls storm, rain, and uses thunderbolt as one of his most deadly weapon. He is both the archetype of the mighty warrior, the slayer of great evil (asuras) and also the life-giver. Because you know, rain fertilises earth (if you get the metaphor 💦... 👀). One of his most famous story is how he destroys Vritra the monstrous snake/dragon, also called an asura, who was responsible for holding back waters and created drought. And by doing this, Indra slain the archaic forces blocking the creation of new lives.

As a Naruto fan, I get now the inspiration for Otsutsuki Indra. Sasuke's preference for raiton and kirin, Madara as a god of war and user of storm release, the symbol behind Sasuke killing Oroshimaru in his white snake shape, susanoo although a japanese god is still god of storm killing an other massive snake...

It's kind of funny because Indra is, based on the Vedas tradition, the allegory of the perfect hero. He comes alone, strong-willed, powerful, and slays any obstacles to the natural cycle of life, and by doing so he saves humanity from chaos. And it's precisely what is despise in the Narutoverse about the characters assimilated to him, namely Uchiha clan and Indra Otsutsuki. Indra opposing his unfair father is bad. The Uchiha clan defending themselves against oppression is devilish, Sasuke seeking revenge is detestable, Madara looking for a world purged of evil is absolutely hideous.

There is as well many shinto inspirations but I'm mostly reading here the story in a Vedic perceptive and you'll notice something else about the asura's. It's not a single god but a group of demons always confronting the devas. They are seen in a negative light, the anti-gods, the power-seekers ect... And it kind of makes sense with Naruto who can't progress on his own. He needs to be constantly help and surrounded by people. He is also notoriously possessed by a powerful demon who manifest himself in the beginning of the story when Naruto is corned to anger. Notice also that the only way to control this demonic force is either the sharingan assimilated to shinto spiritual strength or Mokuton from the Senju being assimilated with Buddhism spiritual strength.

So now you get where I'm going... isn't weird that mostly Narutoverse is respecting mythologies and adapt them to its own storyline. For instance the sannin legend, Kaguyahime story. But for Indra and Asura it's a total reverse of values. Intentionally, the good is bad and the bad is good.

Yeah but the plot Al Hekima, don't forget the plot ! I know, I know... If your main character is a boy possessed by a demon, befriends with 9 others demons and it's apparently normal, it will end up this way.

Maybe I'm not objective after all but even before going deeper into analysing the Narutoverse, Indra and the Uchiha clan being seen as cursed and evil by nature, the people who went astray and needed to be beaten into submission, always left me unsettled. Literally, I couldn't comprehend what was wrong with them which justify so much hate. And in opposite Naruto being possessed by a demon is blatantly black magic. His father is never questioned about doing it to his son, neither Hiruzen to the young Kushina, or Hashirama to his wife (in this case they may have both agree). I know it's just fiction, but art doesn't come out of the blue. It's ingrained in the artist's set of value, cultures, emotion ect... And the author stressed in interviews that he wanted to bring positive value to his younger audience. I'm just questioning sometimes what are actually those values? For the Uchihas the idea was to forgive, to not fall into hate, and move on. But forgive without justice? Putting the pressure of moving on solely on the victim and never put the perpetuator in a difficult position? Never ask any apology or reform from the aggressor? The victim needs to forgive with no assurance that it won't happened again. Believe it, right? and eventually the victim needs to help the system who harmed him to keep going... Anyway I'm rambling at this point but that's always my major philosophical disagreement with Kishimoto.

#Sharing with you some of my researches while writing my fic #madara golden age #it was suppose to be a short post but apparently I can't do that lol #and also those researchs explain why it's so easy to rewrite Madara/Sasuke as heroes because they ARE #Madara #Sasuke #Indra #Asura #Indra in vedic texts #Naruto #Sasuke's popularity almost overshining Naruto is logic #Even Naruto is obsessed with the true hero of the story

I genuinely cannot vibe with people who are like "but the messages of the persona games are to accept yourself and other people and be kind to one another and care about things etc etc, bigoted people who like them are stupid and incorrect" because while the first part is true and they have a lot of good messages! everything that bigots are looking for are there. none of the modern era games are particularly revolutionary and none of them really challenge reactionary thinking at all and despite them talking about things like self acceptance and justice, it's very clear that they believe those things should still adhere to the status quo. I love them and the good parts of the games are very good, and they are otherwise fun and well made, but it is very very clear to me why conservatives also get satisfaction from them

#and those people might not necessarily disagree with the main messages. conservative thinking is not logical and most people do #believe rhat they are good people. #anyways this applies less to p3 of the modern era because it doesnt feature as much like 'political' topics #and i only said modern era because 1&2 have different vibes completely of course... well you know im talking about 4&5 lol #i mean 3 has many issues. mostly in male route. femc just has less uncomfortable moments. but theyre less damning to the game #genuinely stop ignoring the problems just bc you like them. 'everyone has an issue with the way people are treated in p4' NOT TRUE!

[todayisafridaynight]

hi snap !! ^_^

in your opinion as the minedai guy, are mine's feelings for daigo reciprocated? or do you think it's more one sided

Its inarguable that daigo genuinely cherished mine as a confidant and a reliable ally. he valued mine not just for his stalwart loyalty, but how despite (or perhaps because of) that loyalty mine was prepared to disagree with daigo and not just be a self-serving yesman only after money or a semblance of power like other members of the tojo; because of mine’s readiness to risk going against daigo despite his position, daigo saw mine as someone who genuinely cared not just for him, but for the tojo clan that meant so much to him

When it comes to romantic feelings though, its never going to be as cut-and-dry as we’d like (unless you’re mine. Unless you’re a raging homosexual like mine.), so i can never- with confidence- say a character has romantic feelings for another (AGAIN. Unless You’re Mine). At the very least, it’s safe to say mine was more explicit about demonstrating that love, or at the very least he was given more chances to show how much he loved daigo, so it’ll always look one-sided going off of what we have so far <- delusional

If we want tho, we can have some fun with the franchise and implications and all. after the events of Y3 via an RGGO story, daigo visits the bar he and mine would frequent. Inside, the bartender brings up a special bottle of alcohol daigo was meant to share with mine, though because mine’s, daigo declines drinking it. Ultimately, he decided the bottle should only be opened if mine was there to share it with him, otherwise it would be pointless

I bring up this moment For Giggles because in Y7, kashiwagi the bartender weaves a similar story during nanba’s drink link. The story goes that he keeps an expensive brand of alcohol on his shelf because he wanted to give the bottle to his lover, though she died before they got the chance to share it and keeps it in honor of her

Obviously, the story’s just a silly front to trick people into coming in- but it is Dually funny considering the parallel to the mine/daigo situation..

#snap chats #tl;dr - i dont know <3 #THE LONGEST NON ANSWER OF MY LIFE LMAOOOOOO #in my heart of hearts i want to believe daigo loved mine the same but i wanna stay within reason to what my eyeballs see #the Y7 story is probably the best indication of daigo loving mine depending on how serious you wanna take it #cause evidently kashiwagi in the story is reflective of daigo #and though kashiwagi’s story was a lie he was still playing the role of a mourning lover #a pretty funny coincidence dont you think… #itd be one thing if The Saved Bottle story was something frequent in rgg #but its really only these two instances i can think of #either/or i always like it when pairings are ambiguous or ‘noncanon’ #so whether that hard confirmation comes or not ill be happy #also y4 will always be daigo’s widower moment to me. its just too logical #daigo doing all this dumb shit cause he misses his wife so sad so true can we get five likes #DAMN I HAVENT TYPED AN ESSAY IN NINE YEARS LOL long as hell post bye

SO! Doctor Who! The Star Beast! It was... Very Disney. Some parts, and especially the new TARDIS and the reactions to it at the end... Felt very Disney and not enough Doctor Who. It also looked like the insides of the giant centre parks flumes lmao.

I loved the first section, the comedy was on point, but then everything did get very ott, like too much all at once, it felt chaotic in a way that didn't feel cohesive, it was like they shoved in too much for it to handle. And exposition wise, idk if there actually was much exposition but it really felt like there was a ton. And the ending, sweet ig, but it felt...

yk when there's a big ending and it's all saved by "THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP TM" OR "TRUE LOVES KISS" and wrapped up with a little now that makes you grown and feels like a cop out, the easy way that doesn't make much sense and feels like they didn't put much effort in. Yeah, felt like that but it was "the power of gender TM." And ik tumblr is gonna eat that up, but I think other parts of the episode to do with gender and stuff were far more meaningful, and this felt like it was cheapening it.

#wonder how the next few episodes are gonna be #gotta say I like moffats seasons best but I'm looking forward to see if I like rtds new ones a lot or not #also #in true doctor who fashion #the crack! big crack of lava going down London! #... #through the middle of the street #hurting noone no houses #the power of logic yk makes so much sense #also why did it close up? #like magic no harm done #it felt like one of those videos where someone's like “I don't want that” so they like reverse the video and be like “so we're gonna unmix #that" #as a joke pretending you can idk uncook food like lol #doctor who #DW #the star beast #russell t davies #rtd #david tennant #doctor who special #catherine tate #donna noble #fourteenth doctor #tenth doctor

wld love to hear ur thoughts abt ur last post on true selves - @milkstore

It's really simple tbh? Basically people have this assumption that if they've never opened up to you, you can't ever know their "true face." They assume that the face that they show to the world is heavily divorced from their true self. Sure doesn't help when they act differently around different people, blah blah blah. To them, their masks are lies and their heart is truth. To be honest, I'm not sure I understand why these people think this way. Are not the different faces a person wears just different facets of their personality?

Regardless, I think because people operate under the assumption that the masks they show to the world aren't their true self, they assume they can't ever be known without their consent. It's a really ridiculous assumption tbh. It'd take a lot of conscious planning and decisions to truly create a persona that is completely unlike yourself. Like you'd literally have to be insane to do that.

In reality, people do not think much before making majority of their day to day decisions. Must you play a mental chess match to decide whether or not to greet your coworkers? Do you make conscious decisions to purchase food you dislike so nobody will know what you actually like? Do you have to physically and consciously move the muscles in your face to form a smile or a frown for every interaction? If these things do not take much conscious thought, then are you not acting true to your "true self?"

Then think about the things you consciously do or don't do. If someone disagrees with you but you don't argue back, does that not say something? If you tell jokes at work to get people to laugh, does that not reveal things? Even if these actions are not a part of your "true self," does not the fact you simply did them tell something about you?

This is just talking about actions. This doesn't even go into reactions. People assume that they are the best actors and can fool the world, but they are just fooling themselves. Initial reactions are hard to hide. True happiness and excitement is hard to fake. Feigned interest is quite easy to see. Stress, anger, and hurt are hard to gloss over. Are not emotions and the reasons for them very revealing for true selves?

And kinda going into my other post, you work from there. [Observation + observation] = intuitive observation. [Intuitive observation + intuitive observation] = mid-tier observation. Etc.

In my personal opinion, while intuitive observations are where the meat of everything is, that doesn't make simple observations less... intimate. For example, you observe a person doesn't eat many vegetables. You can rightfully assume they don't like vegetables. The very fact you noticed this means that you were paying attention to them. You know something about their true self.

#interactions #this post has a terrible ending but i ran out of points lol #but what i'm guessing is that people like this tend to assume that [thoughts/opinions = true self] #[reasonings = true self] #'i think therefore i am' sorta deal #they don't realize that by the way they act we can intuit what sort of thoughts and opinions they may have #not exactly i mean #but you can tell when you observe a person if they'll have logical opinions... emotional opinions... fake edgy opinions LOL #so in the end when they finally do open up nothing comes as a surprise because those thoughts match the person you know them to be #instead of being like 'wow that surprised me' it's more like 'yeah that makes sense lol' #getting a grip of a person's true self will take time (yes) but it's pretty easy once you've done it enough #and like.... i don't mean you take a deep dive into their psyche #but from first meeting you can tell the type of person they are #can you trust them? will they cause you issues? are they fun? will you possibly offend them? etc #everyone does this #if you want to get better though when you do get a general vibe of a person ask yourself 'why do i think this?' #'why don't i think i can trust them? why do i think i'd get along with them?' etc #at the same time though as i've said before put enough stock into your observations to protect yourself but also like... #not enough to the point you refuse to acknowledge evidence to support something else #always refine your observations and never ignore new information #always ask 'why' #ngl i have thoughts on nearly every single person i've met and am not afraid to share them but nobody ever returns the favor haha #bums me out a lot #i want someone to do an anon analysis for me HAHA
