#but the real question remains

[eveningshowhost]

Michael returns from the dead to work at his favorite family restaurant...

... A G A I N

A little crossover between SB and the previous games ;) I wonder what Mike would be up to and how he would react to new animatronic designs!

Also a bonus:

#five nights at freddy's #fnaf #fnaf security breach #michael afton #mike schmidt #glamrock freddy #but the real question remains #which glamrock animatronic Mike would crush on #stay tuned and participate in this poll to make Michael go on date show with all of them

It's racist, my dear, to be blunt. People come from outside, they think we're all witches and druids. For God's sake, child, you walked into a piece of string!

[transmascutena]

these lines hit different when you read utena as transmasc

#i mean the first one is really awful regardless. #pretty sure i read somewhere that the words akio uses means something along the lines of 'you really should remain a child' #as opposed to 'you really should remain the gender that you are.' which speaks to his whole thing about keeping these kids from growing up #and there's So Much in anthy's line even without hypothetical misgendering #anyway the au where utena has already transitioned by the time he gets to ohtori is really good #and i of course have lots of headcanons about post-ohtori utena and gender #but i've been thinking about one where he's actively questioning while he's there and is not out to anyone. #and i guess not a lot would really change but akio's attempt at making utena more feminine would have a whole other layer of awful to it #and unfortunately i think in this scenario the first person he would come out to would be akio. which is so sad #like maybe it could be anthy but idk. i think it would be something he'd be apprehensive to be open about with her #(in the show utena does tend to be more vulnerable with akio than with anthy. at least the vulnerability with him comes first. #he's her go-to person for advice in the black rose arc and utena doesn't really begin opening up to anthy like that until the third arc) #maybe i should write something for this au. i can see it so clearly. #utena talking about his confusing gender feelings in one of those black rose scenes in the planetarium #and akio doing that thing where he sounds supportive and helpful but absolutely isn't. #that fake sympathy that's actually really patronizing and condescending and dismissive but subtly enough that utena doesn't realize it #and THEN the contrast when utena finally talks to anthy about it and she empathises by talking about her own confusing gender feelings #(transfem anthy realness !!!!!) #oh wow i did not mean to write so much in the tags #revolutionary girl utena #utena tenjou #my posts

The new trailer has injected hype straight into my veins (rip everyone who is tired of Varric narrating trailers feat. Solas, but I'm a sucker for both) and the art is just gorgeous as always so I took screencaps - figured I'd share in case anyone else wanted them!

#dragon age #dragon age: dreadwolf #da:d #da4 #solas #i'd tag varric but he's not *pictured* lol so #i went off in the tags of the cinematic i reblogged earlier but for REAL there's a lot of little things in this trailer that are new!! #i mean i'm not surprised it's not an 'official' game trailer lol they're almost certainly saving that for game awards this week #but- the symbolism with the 7 evanuris outside the circle rim (theorized previously but now confirmed & with symbols!) #the way the golden city turned black (also dope skull) - its been theorized that the gc/bc was elven related but!! this is a BIG lead #plus ppl have been noting it almost looks like there's a ship sailing away from the gc before it turns black/as it does so #in those swirling black patterns that 'root' out before the image changes- #so!! new theories re maybe the evanuris/remaining elves fled the gc? after corrupting it??? or otherwise Fucking Around and Finding Out #plus the final one! with solas and the er- bomb/spell to destroy the veil - the 4 (but possibly 5 it looks like ones clipped out) #semicircles representing the evanuris - and more importantly... the archdemons probably - bc 5 defeated archdemons.... out of ostensibly 7- #5 evanuris down (or more terrifyingly: 5 of their 'locks'?) (or or- 5 of their simply leaked Bad Vibes in Dragon Form) out of 7 #somehow tying into this spell...? #solas (if ogb was a thing in ur playthrough) not only has mythal's energy but ogb's.... so many unanswered questions and loose threads #i and every other Lore Nerd are desperately trying to figure out what can be braided together with any reasonable effect lmao #regardless - gorgeous art is gorgeous hello new desktop bg

Sherlock and Co has no right to be this funny

There's this funny scene in I think The Gloria Scott Pt2 where Sherlock and John are discussing some kind of phrase and John explains it something like this (bare with me I don't have this thing memorized)

"[...] For comedic effect."

"But nobody laughed."

LIKE I WAS GONNA BREAK DOWN LAUGHIBG IN THE FUCKJN TTC YOU CANT DO THIS TO ME SHERLOCK

I was listening to this bc I had to take a bus down for a field trip we were going on but I heard this and a laugh just escaped me oh my God.

Also you can never get enough of the existentialism in Gloria Scott Pt2 like bro. They had me thinking about memory and identity and I'm like 🧍‍♂️bc I'm walking to the place we're going for the trip (it was a film festival btw) and I hear this and I'm like. What. What the fuck.

Also nothing beats hearing Sherlock Holmes describe exactly how you see the world but in words. Nothing will ever top the validation from canonically autistic Sherlock

-

In other news, Sherlock and Co remains to be the ONLY podcast I can actively say I like (ever), I'm not a podcast guy and baaaaarely an audiobook person but man. Nothing beats the atmosphere of that podcast and the editing is tip notch. You know it's a good one when *dramatic violin*

The theme song is so catchy hekejejdjdkdkkdkr

Uhhh yeah pls go listen to it and or read the transcripts bc it makes for a good accompaniment but yall. This podcast is FIRE. Sherlock Holmes is great but I've genuinely never related to a character more wtf

Anyways, falling into that fixation phase again!

#posts #sherlock and co #ive been catching up on episodes of the podcast bc i almost forgot about it #lemme tell you its WORHT ITTT #the real question remains whether i should review each podcast episde on my film journal meant for films n stuff #because i want to be Peak Annoying #like ive already done it enough when i wrote 2000 words of tgamm analysis #or 800 words of lucifer analysis #bro probably diagnosed me mentally with the tism before he found out for real (documents and ieps and shit) #so like. he LOVES when im obsessed #i may or may not choose to be annoying about this podcast on PURPOSE #WILLINGLY

[resetting37]

Okay I gave them names ! Meet Jean and Salem ! Children of my actual ocs, of course this is set in the future where everyone is older and these guys have been raised collectively by my main ocs.

As step siblings, Jean is worried he won't be able to live up to his father's superhuman abilities or mother's magic. Salem is coming to terms with being the second oldest. Second best. (Also, like her parents.)

#art #oc #ANYWAY... ARE these guys real ??? is this a RESETTING spin off ?? an au ??? #remains to be seen #Also let me know if you have any questions about them. I kind of love them #REVIVAL

[the-final-sif]

Also, just as a general comment on the whole Dream situation on one of the takes I kept seeing; y'all know that snapchat is like, an actual platform people use to talk to each other, right? It's not like, a creepy platform only used by predators. Right? Like. I've never had a snapchat account, and literally all throughout college I'd get offered people's snapchats and have to say I didn't have it and ask for their phone number instead. My like 45 year old boss uses snapchat to talk with her like 20 year old kids. I once had to write an actual email to another human being to tell them no, they could not put down their snapchat handle as an emergency contact method for their club paperwork.

Idk I had to actually check with other people in the discord to make sure I wasn't insane, and no, other people reported the same thing. Snapchat is a normal platform people use to talk to others. But for some reason, I kept seeing that take that somehow giving a snapchat was inherently predatory and that threw me for one hell of a loop. I'm really just not sure where that idea came from.

#dreamwastaken #dream discourse #discourse #this is def more of a personal opinion but it's been bugging me since I got that anon awhile back and I want to throw this out there #sif speaks #like again I am remaining in my camp of waiting on words from lawyers #but I did want to address this because that take was weird as hell to me #and made me question whether snapchat was really just like a niche platform everyone else at my college used for some reason #also had one person for that club try to put down a discord handle #the snapchat person was understanding #the discord handle person tried to argue with me that their phone number was too personal #and I was like #dude if you end up lost in the middle of nowhere we need to be able to call you on a real actual phone not see if you have discord on #alright back to me talking about defamation laws b/c legal cases make my brain go burr

[rearranging-deck-chairs]

my unnecessary quest for verisimilitude leading me to say such things as

"dammit theyve got guards at clapham junction station"

#this is not!!! a problem!!!! #me@ me: its not a problem!!!! #but me also: unless. it is. #unless. theyve got guards in all stations and not having a guard would be immediately suspension-of-disbelief-breaking for any englishman #me again: unless!!! they were on their fucking lunch break idk #literally the other night we were watching the last season of the crown and there was clapham junction mentioned #and i went 'oh i was just there on google maps!' #like. normal #anyway looking for exactly the right details to mention and NOT to mention so that it looks real you know? #mention landmarks but only Some so nobody notices that the path through london i have them walk makes No Sense #skip the station but mention some of the landscape on the way and where they get off #question remains tho #whether guards are like. standard #which makes jumping a turnstile a little bit of an issue #i mean not That much of an issue they can get distracted #but like i gotta problemsolve for that now you know? #whatever #it literaly doesnt matter but it matters to me

[cahmsandiego]

Ok im so excited about the animated mighty nein (I will be insufferable about it) but I really wanna know how they're going to deal with Yasha. She was mind controlled like half of the series and I dont think they're just gonna cut out Ashley, does that mean we might get more mind controlled Yasha, cut aways to her, maybe even more run ins with her? Will we be getting even more pain? More Beau pining and angry??? More Jester trying to save Yasha????? Oh gosh I just realized we are gonna see healing hands animated, im not ready guys.

#critical role #the mighty nein #mighty nein #yasha nydoorin #beauregard lionett #jester lavorre #im also excited for animated Cad! i love him #these arms are worth a lot animated!? #oh i cant wait for the delicious slowburn that is beauyasha #beau waiting for the sound of lightning animated!? #im going to be in so much pain yall #ok but real question if Molly died episode 26 does that mean hes gonna die in the first 3 episodes? #i have so many questions and i cant wait to watch it all happen again in animated form #i want to see everyone so so bad #beauyasha #im not ready #i will never be ready #edit: ive been informed that it was only 17 epsiodes yasha was mind controlled i thought it was longer haha #my question still remain though

naruto as a character is so frustrating because the few flaws he does have are painted in a positive light and continuously reinforced. the story bends over backwards to prove him right. and this makes him such a one-dimensional character in the long run, you know? and over the course of the story, his character assassination is worse because what can you tell him about his character journey? what did he learn? “naruto is an aspiration!” but why? because he suffered from abandonment issues and refused to give up on sasuke who he tied to his self-worth? because he forgave the village for the injustice he faced since he had internalized the blame and thought there was something wrong with him?

pre-shippuden and early shippuden until the pain arc was so enlightening because that’s when we see the real naruto with his flaws and the things he struggled with. he was questioning everything and that was setting the path for what kind of hokage he was going to be. it’s a shame they diluted a character with actual character development.

#naruto #txt #naruto uzumaki #i will never forgive anyone for the clusterfuck from pain arc #my boy was faced with actual questions and was exposed to the real shinobi world #and his responses made me like him so much as a character #then kishi realized he'd make his main audience - the dudebros - happier by naruto's character regression and revolve his entire life around #sasuke to build up to the final ePIc fight #and this also makes the victory so much hollow because sasuke returns and the village that wronged remains the same #and naruto upholds the same authority his clan's killers did #anti naruto uzumaki #to be on the safe side

[cypric-rat-hyperfixation]

As my following grows and as I meet more and more people who have rats, had rats, know someone who has/had rats, and love rats...

increasingly I wonder if/when a day will come... a day that I'll express rat enjoyment to someone and they'll enthusiastically ask me if I've heard of This Funnie Little Rodent Blog they like, figuring I may already know it or will enjoy it if not...

and it's.. my blog... and then I have to come out as popular Rat Tumblr blogger that they follow and now know IRL.......

#/lh #I'm saying this like it's some big deal but I'm just exaggerating for comedic effect adjfgsbkdfj #no idea what the likelihood on that looks like. based on statistics of people estimating statistics? probably likelier than we all think #anyway that time I posted a survey for a university research project here and you all wound up comprising 2/3 of our sample was so funny #I had to actually say in an academic research paper that one possible flaw in our study #was bias that may result from 2/3 the sample having come from a niche and extremely specific demographic of people #due to the fact that they flocked in from One Of The Researchers' Substantial Online Following Centered Around A Particular Theme #And Selected Specifically To Have Only A Certain Kind Of Person On It Via Boundaries And Blocking #literally you all made up 98/150 respondents (but that's assuming all digital responses were from y'all-- we had 52 paper responses) #ah but the research symposium was the best. in the paper I was able to remain that generic about it #but at the research symposium. well it's a glorified science fair. so participants have their own stations set up and observers tour them #as the participants speak to their audience; directly providing a summary and then answering any questions #some of the audience/observers are faculty and most are fellow students #so real scholarly scientific types yeah? so they had questions. thoughtful questions #long story short I confessed to numerous listeners throughout the day that the sample's bizarre gender ratio is probably my fault #around 57% women; 21% nonbinary adults; 17% men-- an unusual proportion #so I had to academically tell my professors... underclassmen..... my classmates....... acquaintances.... foes.......... #... that I'm big famous in Rat #and it was so. djkjSBCJXHQKRIGAJFSHF

[poelya]

you are braver than any us marine for these takes... anyway, i'm sure you've talked about this before but how do you feel about sequels era Leia/Holdo?

😌 thanks casey, it's from years of practice of having combatting star wars opinions with a us marine (my father) asfjoasfjosa.

Aha! Leia/Holdo. Man now there's a dynamic i'm constantly just. sticking under a microscope and studying. It's funny because although I'm in a place where I'm like "oh they're so canon", I've only ever thought about them being together pre-canon. Like to me they're very amicable exes, and Leia still has such a huge soft spot for Amilyn and vice versa (sometimes I think about how it feels like for, the majority of the movie, Amilyn is trying to act the way she thinks Leia would, and it. gives me emotions).

So it's not a hop and a skip for me to be intrigued by the thought of them together during the sequels era. It opens the door to a lot of interesting stories imo and a lot of sweet character development and my personal favorite - angst. So I could definitely be convinced by the thought of them rekindling something.

send me a ship and i'll tell you my opinion!

#they just vibe so much as we used to be together and we still love each other So Much #which. ough. just hurts so much. i have a lot of thoughts on amilyn. #anti blorbo for real. by nO means should you take up so much space in my brain and Yet. #honestly leia losing so many people back to back is ALREADY tragic but there's a special kind of horror i think of han and amilyn back to #back. and then immediately after that /luke/ #god. this backfired guys i now need to hug leia #the only leia/amilyn i am Not a fan of is like. #princess of alderaan leia/amilyn because how do you fumble it SO hard #'leia wouldn't like amilyn (who i've made blatantly autistic for the sake of just making an expy of x character from That Other Franchise) #because she's too weird (see: too autistic)' #NO! CLAUDIA GRAY! THE FUCK ARE YOU ON! they're weird little girls TOGETHER #weird little girls amilyn/leia bonding and falling in love and breaking up and remaining friends even tho they're both kind of terrible at #it and still being SO soft on each other to the point of questionable decisions? #sign me up that's SO much fun #anyway #my feelings on poa is an entirely different subject sorry #asks #tremendouskoalachild

[shinhatisgirlfriend]

should i write an Ahsoka-centric gen fic that pulls from Princess Yue and the Phoenix Force/White Hot Room

or should i finish the fics i already have

decisions decisions

#I was thinking about the lack of older Ahsoka in fandom the other day and realized I really like to write fics that answer a question #and my only real remaining question about Ahsoka is the Mortis stuff #at least as it comes to like current day Ahsoka in Peridea #just ignore me #star wars #ahsoka tano

why june?

out of context there are one trillion equally valid ways i could answer this ask

#kind-of-a-wack #if you're referring to the month of june this is because june is going to be a very busy month for me irl #if this is in reference to june egbert then i am sorry to say this is a question top experts in the field have been decoding for years #nobody knows Why June but the answer does still remain Yes June #this applies to many such junes both real and imagined btw
