#by y'all i mostly mean like

[nastychastity]

i guess i shouldn't be surprised about this but re: the introduction of claire as a character in the bear--y'all really love hating women and completely disregarding larger narrative arcs don't you

#by y'all i mostly mean like #ppl in youtube comments complaining about claire being a boring manic pixie dream girl and not having chemistry with carm or whatever #but i've also seen some opinions on here that have me hmmm #carmy should not be in any kind of romantic relationship right now and for the foreseeable future and he gets into one anyway #and that's the point #he is a deeply traumatized deeply maladjusted man who is barely just scratching the surface of his healing process #and everything about claire and his relationship with her is meant to be directly symbolic of his regression back into harmful behaviors #that put him deep in his trauma #he's backpedaling and that's the point #it's supposed to make you angry and frustrated as the viewer. because you want him to continue to heal and focus on his growth #but he backtracks because it's easy #it's safe #he literally starts their connection by trying to self sabotage and giving her a fake phone number #he knows he shouldn't do this! he knows he can't! #but it happens anyway so he tries anyway because he thinks he should #not because he actually wants to #but hating on claire as a character is misdirected and often misogynistic #she didn't do anything wrong #and i don't think she's an uninteresting person #i honestly think she's quite lovely and i know she doesn't deserve to be with carmy's ghost #like yes we're supposed to be frustrated that they're together because they definitely shouldn't be but it's not because claire sucks #it's because carmy isn't in a good place for a relationship and because they're not right for each other #at least not now #and like completely separate from carmy/sydney--which i love #the narrative is clearly spelling out that the harmony isn't there #story and character wise carmy and claire aren't good for each other #and claire is still a well written and interesting character #and both of those things can be true at the same time #the bear

god i hate nintendo so fucking much i'll never buy another thing from them, good day. we will have to resort to emulation and fan servers from then on out completely

#i knew it would happen fellas #btw there's online servers for splatoon 1 and everyone's gonna have to resort to using them for that #there's no reason for this the systems have built in internet functionality anyway #i mean i've been using mostly emulation for stuff like this but this really really really is an asshole move and y'all know it #shosh

I just saw another ask calling Gemini au Donnie afab, and obviously he does have XX chromosomes in your au (or the turtle/mutant equivalent at least?), but if afab means assigned female at birth and Donnie and Leo were assigned male at birth by Big Mama.... Does that technically make the two of them amab trans men???

Or.... amak? assigned male at kidnapping?

LMAO yeah. I always grapple with the terms because I'm like. WELL... THEY TECHNICALLY... WEREN'T ASSIGNED FEMALE AT BIRTH LMAO,,,, they're both, technically speaking, amab, so yes, they are in fact both amab trans men lmao.

And they weren't TECHNICALLY kidnapped... so... amaa? assigned male at... adoption??? u w u

#the term afab isnt technically correct because. you know. but sometimes i use it anyway just for like. ease of communication #y'all know what i mean lmao #and im always hesitant to use terms like “biologically female” #coz i dont necessarily always LOVE that terminology for trans ppl and i know sometimes other ppl dont either #but! shrug. its not really that deep lmao #its mostly me being nitpicky and also force of habit #asks #anon #gemini au asks

Success! Inbox finally cleared!

There were a bit more asks but I just deleted some because of... reasons. Look, I love getting asks even if sometimes I can't find the motivation to answer soonish, and requesting stuff is totally fine!

But I would appreciate it if it were more like suggestions and less like demands. My interests shift and there's a ton of stuff I would like to draw. I don't like being told what to do tbh ksksks. If it ain't fun, then I ain't doing it. This is a hobby after all.

Having said that, thanks to everyone who stuck around for my submas stuff, I had a lot of fun in the fandom! I'm taking a break from PLA + submas for more TLOZ + LU stuff since that's my current hyperfixation tho. Maybe I'll be back in the future, maybe not, we'll see ^^

#talk tag #I love asks #I like requests but it's mostly limited to when I say requests are open #also I'm spiteful af. so if you're mean about it or way too insistent about getting a certain thing drawn. you ain't getting an answer #like asking for the exact same thing three times in a row after being left without an answer for a bit #draw/write it yourself you coward /hj #be the content creator you wanna see #i struggle with fatigue a lot so it's not like I don't wanna answer at once #even if y'all see me drawing/posting non stop sometimes. that's just the power of hyperfixation I guess #rambling in the tags

"I can see will appreciating all types of music genres" well I cannot. peace and love<3

#like sorry I just think he mostly listens to rock some people literally just listen to one genre and that's FINE oh my lord #he would not be pretentious about it I'm not saying that I am sure that when el turns the madonna on he does not bitch or make fun of her #that doesn't mean he's listening to it on his own though lmao. that doesn't mean it's his preferred music choice #you know who I DO think would like a lot of different music genres? el. and I have actual reasons for this #I'm not just saying shit for the sake of saying shit #like she probably wasn't exposed to music for the first 13 years of her life! I bet she loves all sorts of stuff bc it's all so unique! #I bet her favorite songs and artists are based more in sentimental value then anything else #like she likes madonna bc she listens to that with max. she likes bowie bc it's what her brothers introduced to her #she likes riot grrrrl/punk bc of kali y'know? #anyway. in summary. will literally does not have to listen to pop or whatever why would he #like do what you want with mike he canonically sang along to corey hart. but will? #anyway that's how I know y'all are just projecting bc y'all want your fave to have the same music taste as you #and like it's a harmless headcanon it doesn't matter I know. but it is a pet peeve yeah I don't see why will can't just like rock #AGAIN. NOT PRETENTIOUS. HE THINKS OTHER GENRES ARE FINE THEY'RE JUST NOT HIS THING #stranger things #will byers #byler

find it funny that 99% of the ppl who ship heathney also automatically ship aleduncan, and I love that for them

#mlm wlw solidarity #its funny they're either separate ships or one polycule #obv there's that 1% who have mixed feelings abt either or (mostly aleduncan bc chances are they dont like duncan lmaoo) dw i see y'all #anyway i gotta say im part of that 99% #okay no but just looking through the heathney tag made me love both heathney and aleduncan in one go #i mean as a multishipper im either indifferent to ships or like/love them but these two were the former to me until now hdjfhk #(clarification: the only ships I dont like are the weird ones along with a handful that don't click for me. im not that picky trust me) #aleduncan #heathney #total drama #td #kit speaks #noahtally-famous #kit stuff #td heather #td alejandro #td duncan #td courtney

Chapter 624

#naruto #madara #madara uchiha #uchiha madara #hashirama flashback #+ hashirama #Madara willingly turns his back to Hashirama as he says this and to me this means two main things: #1) obviously it visually marks Hashirama as someone in particular that makes Madara vulnerable #2) it marks a wall of distrust that's being built between them; wall that Madara puts up there himself (in willingly turning his back to hi #instead of being caught by surprise like usual) because Izuna's safety is more important and also -- significantly -- something he thinks i #more achievable than pretending he can dream his way into peace with Hashirama. Noticeably while his back is turned on Hashirama he's facin #Izuna (and ''his side'' of the war) directly. #Again it's about what's in front of him and what he can see and what he can control vs what he can't #It's also about his baby brother whom he loves very much #because obviously in the same way that for Hashirama it's about Tobirama for Madara it's about Izuna #The way I see Madara is his whole deal is just frequent overlapping of his distrust/paranoia and self-centredness and attachment to power #and his love for Izuna and sense of duty to his clan in like and his honest desire for peace and but mostly safety. in everything he does. #The fact that he falls is bc Izuna and his clan were no longer factors and the last part became warped by the first 3. #I like Madara a lot if y'all couldn't tell lmfao

i'm mad at david jenkins. but i don't NEED to direct my anger at him. i don't want to. i'm sure he knows people aren't happy by now

#i feel like y'all are going to be mad at me for feeling bad for him #it makes me sad that there's so much hate directed at him when he created this (mostly) wonderful tv show #but then again i also feel so hurt #so i definitely understand where you guys are coming from #but let's not forget that at the end of the day izzy is a fictional character and david jenkins is a real human being #and so are us izzy stans #and we all deserve to be treated with respect #the izcourse #izzy hands #ofmd s2 spoilers #our flag means death

ppl, especially low/no-empathy ppl, who talk to ableist anti-pd cluster b abuse believers with the upmost patience & understanding are so crazy (/pos) for that because what

how do y'all sit there and level w/ them just. so much.

i know it's kind of necessary bcs even if they don't listen to us anyways, they're only gonna think we're 10× worse if we don't walk them through the spiel w/ hands held (which we're not even owed to do anyways) but like i can hardly see myself doing it

so like

respect

Curious #but yea i guess a lotta ableists have those same self-insulated type of beliefs as your average conspiracy #“anyone who tells you otherwise is wrong for x y & z reasons. if they say literally anything contrary to this they're trying to team up & #manipulate you. these people whom you have never interacted with in your life prior to this. they're in kahoots w ur abuser to validate the #abuse. just trust me on this bro“ type stuff #“don't trust pw/pds bcs they're pw/pds” circular reasoning #didn't mean to basically type something that could be a whole new post in the tags but like whatevs

Curious, do people who play gacha games give any kind of shit about archiving the game itself? Or do they accept that the company running the game just takes their money, lets them play for a handful of years, and then fucks off?

I know I grew up playing MMOs and that has just. Been a part of the experience of playing them, but at least a lot of MMOs that have gone defunct have had a sort of revival and archiving effort perpetuated by dedicated fans.

I don't know if we'll ever see that with any kind of mobile gacha app.

And even with a lot of MMO revivals or legacy servers or rebuilds, I don't see a lot of options for playing the game entirely offline, rather, the ability for a player to experience as much as they can without the inherent need for other people to be involved. I know it defeats the purpose of the MMO, but in any case where the servers have to go offline (whether temporarily or for good), archiving isn't worth much if it can't be accessed without the need for them.

I dunno. Just having some thoughts about game preservation because I'm just very acutely aware of the passage of time rn.

#stupid shit #Mostly thinking about how PJSK is going to be completely unplayable in a few years (Y'alls know it's coming lol) #when it's exactly what I wanted a mobile Vocaloid rhythm game to be like #gameplay wise I mean. #couldn't really anticipate all the new characters and gacha element #so like. when the game dies #where will it be archived to? how will it be archived? will it be archived at all? #or are yalls gonna be too busy sucking sega's dick lol #and demanding that anyone archiving an unplayable game be publicly executed for “piracy” lmaoooo #I wouldn't expect much more from an offshoot of the Vocaloid fandom (which was busy sucking yamaha's dick all the time)

Looking back, it's so funny that my family still sees my neurodivergence as more of a prayer issue than a neurological difference especially when I got very overwhelmed singing during praise and worship, but was still told to sing and dance so they definitely looked to their side and just saw this

#I'm autistic on the gay sex autism website. who would've guessed lol #but seriously tho its so funny looking back because I was so so autism #I'd stand and close my eyes so the lights and sounds didn't overwhelm me as much then I'd mostly sway and bounce in place #Sometimes I pre planned my exact movements ahead of time to make sure I didn't get in trouble for not praising #also I wrote an essays earlier about absurdity but it felt Off #like I was someone else trying to write in my style #a fun innuendo followed by TWs for safety and a hook intro #and a heart felt thing for ppl to take with them #it was 'The universe doesn't care about you but I do. I care so much' #but it felt preachy #it felt like I was trying to convert y'all to something via instagram influencer Canva-esque type essay #so I deleted it #I mean I saved my copy for my religious trauma coach but deleted the post here #so I might try again but I think I should look into why it felt ingenious with my therapist #ex christian #religious trauma #flashing lights #flashing gif

[some-other-number]

been seeing a lot of yank-exceptionalist 'voting is pointless' stuff appearing lately and I feel like my main issue with it is that the reasoning seems to boil down to 'my choices are all bad therefore I refuse to participate'. now whether consciously and/or deliberately or not that's still making a choice. that choice is leaving it to everyone else in the electoral district to make a choice for them, because someone is going to get elected. firstly, that feels like an incredibly yankee way of doing things; this is too tricky to strategically decide which option presented will be the best, therefore I will simply not. secondly, someone will be elected and if you have the power to stop a christofascist getting into office then it's your damn duty to do that; no amount of 'voting is only a part of the machine' changes the fact that sometimes within a system you do have to work within it to ensure you can get out of it. that doesn't mean 'working within the confines of a system will help dismantle that system' because I know damn well that rarely works, but that if an action of the system could be changed for the worse unless an action within that system is done, then it should be done. lastly I feel like there is quite a lot of overlap between the 'voting is pointless' type and the 'spends any amount of time pettily fighting over which flavour of left-wing politics is best' and to me it's wild that anyone that participates in that could ever trust the other voters in their area to decide the political outcome of that electorate, who are total strangers that they may have completely the opposite political opinions to them. when the non-voter can't even get along with someone with arguably very similar politics to them. something about that does not make any sense to me

#redboots speaks #I don't get why these people are being like this now isn't the usa election like a year away #getting a head start? being annoying already? #like I know there are legitimate reasons someone cannot vote in the yankee-land I mostly mean the people who choose not to. #anyway I'm just writing down my thoughts on it because I've been seeing it a lot and I do not get why #like yeah we get it genocide joe is supporting genocide there isn't an election on yet #you're still being annoying and very yankee #I can smell the walmart pumpkin pie and stupid hidden taxes from y'all a mile off and if some of y'all AREN'T yanks #then sorry you are acting indistinguishable from a yankee and you need to fix that now. save yourselves.

Song of the Day: December 6

"Your Body Is A Weapon" by the Wombats

#song of the day #'someone protect me from the one I love' looping in my head #this is another fun song to sing. who comes up with lines like 'my body is a temple of doom / doomed not to be / by your side' #I have to admit also for all that some of my favorite people are very guitar people I do not have an ear for it #so the Wombats like Greta Van Fleet and a couple others sound like older bands to me. very very surprised to find this song is from 2015 #I mentioned the other day that I usually have an origin story for most of the songs I know because mostly I get them from specific places #recommendations and curated playlists and such #and partially that really helps my memory for songs! they all come with strong associations! self-creating mnemonics! #but also it really skews my perception of when songs are from and how popular they are #the other day I played a song for Nick that I thought he'd like #and I did tell him that I thought it was probably a cover because a lot of the other songs on the playlist were #and he looked at me like I was truly stupid and he said 'it's definitely a cover. because that is a Taylor Swift song' #and I was genuinely just like neat! good to know! #I did listen to the original and I do think I like the cover better but my taste is so specific and scattered that it means nothing #I also apparently heard Sleep Token's new album right as it came out in a way that impressed Nick by like #how cutting-edge my metal knowledge was I guess. hipster-style immediate knowledge of the new release. before it was cool etc #and I had to be like nah bro it was a fic title I googled I get no credit for this. also I didn't know the band existed before this album #there's no way I was looking for the new release. the song the album and the band all just came into being before me simultaneously #this ramble is really long now and I feel like y'all get the point #the Wombats are cool though
