“They don’t care about being uzumaki’s-“ and isn’t that sad? in a world where everyone else who’s from a clan knows their clan intimately and has all these customs and history to make them feel closer to their family, the Uzumaki clan is just lonely orphans scattered to the winds?
Isn’t it sad that Naruto lives in a village where his father’s face overlooks it, everyone who knows his dad says he looks like him, wanting to be a hokage is seen as following his dad’s footsteps, that one of his teachers was his dad’s student and the other teacher was his dad’s teacher, and yet Naruto doesn’t have his mom’s chains, or her hair, all he shares with her besides a love for ramen is the burden of being a jinchuuriki and a clan name that he doesn’t care about ?
Isn’t it sad that there used to be a clan and now there’s no one left to mourn or care about them, isn’t it sad that the last two members might as well be considered clan less since there’s nothing tying the two of them together? Isn’t it sad that that 3 separate Uzumaki’s had to bear the burden of being a jinchuuriki for a village that didn’t even bother to remember them? Isn’t it sad?

trying to read harrow the ninth after spending the whole first book in the head of a jock who actively tuned out exposition and made "that's what she said" jokes

"Aw, River, love, not like this. This is not how it's mean to be, you know that."
The fact that is canon that 13 would call River love makes me happy

stilllll thinking about wei wuxians "I thought I could be indifferent to the world" line and like. I love wei wuxians resurrection being this beautiful second chance at life filled w growth and joy and wonder for the world but I feel like we don't talk enough about how deeply depressed he was immediately after being resurrected. like one of his first thoughts after coming back is how he wished he had stayed dead and he then proceeds to try to avoid at all costs the one person left (that he knows of) who could fathomably still be there for him. and the idea that he was indifferent to the world/trying to be is So heartbreaking in the context of his character specifically because it's like.... wei wuxian, who is full of so much heart, who always cares so deeply, whose love for the world and determination to do good literally destroyed him, trying so hard to be empty and cold towards everything. and of course he can't do it. of course he can't

earlier today the brain cells bounced off of each other and i was reminded of how proud thomasville was and still is of doc. no matter what, they loved him. their speedway sign still has his name and face proudly plastered on it, its proud claim of being his hometown, the sign is in beautiful condition despite it being over fifty years old, not a single thing was changed about it. the billboards in the track itself havent been changed one bit, it still has docs ad for smokeys garage, although in a little more disarray than the speedway sign, its still there.
smokey always knew doc would come back. he has a picture on the workbench in his garage of himself and doc (along with pictures of the others scattered around). they still have the old race tapes with doc in them, smokey knew exactly where they were otherwise we wouldnt have had the scene where theyre outside the garage with it being projected on the wall
there are still posters in the cotter pin of doc, and although all the old racing posters are still up (the ones about the crew anyways) they left docs to stay. they were so fucking proud of him guys. they loved him so much

I'm serious when I said asian movies always gave more impact to me than western movies.
LOOK AT ALL HIROKAZU KOREEDA'S MOVIES, WONG KARWAI'S, PARK CHANWOOK'S, BLUE, ALL ABOUT LILY CHOU CHOU, DEAR EX, BLUE GATE CROSSING, ETERNAL SUMMER, YOUR NAME ENGRAVED HEREIN, CRY ME A SAD RIVER, YOU ARE THE APPLE OF MY EYE, ETC. ETC.
ASIAN CINEMA MESSED ME UP AND I LOVE IT 😭

Controversial opinion probably but some of y’all really gotta be nicer to “Boring Normie” Gays. Like I know a lot of you have a Preset Checklist Of Stereotypical Gay Interests and you expect every gay guy to check off a certain number of boxes to prove that they’re Queer Enough According To Your Standards but I promise you that just because a gay guy is like conventionally masculine doesn’t automatically mean he has internalized homophobia or that he thinks he’s Better Than Other Gays or that he’s trying to “assimilate” or whatever the fuck, it just means that gay men aren’t a fucking hive mind and are in fact individual human beings who often have different personalities and interests just like literally any other group of people.

This whole "people shouldn't come for jamie lee curtis, she deserves an oscar too and she's a great person" shtick is soo tired to me bc I have no interest in attacking her as a person for the simple reason that I don't even know her like that.
But based on this awards season alone, here's what pisses me tf off and what people are absolutely allowed to be annoyed over. The whole "It's not her fault she's a nepo baby" doesn't cut it when you have the epitome of white privilege going on stage to accept an award (SAG in this case) for an Asian American movie and cry about how she's 64 and a nepo baby (because she was butthurt over internet jokes pointing out her privilege) RIGHT IN FRONT OF a 64-year-old Black woman who was raised in the projects by a single mother, hell who was part of school integration because segregation was still a thing when she was little, with absolutely no shame. Boasting about your privilege in front of a woman who is the same age as you and has definitely been set back by that age way way more than you and had to work miles harder to even get her career started is not cute. It's disrespectful.
But who is getting attacked for not being humble enough? Of course, the Black woman who dared to look sad as she watched her life-long dream get crushed right in front of her. Whose hard work was ignored yet again.
Did you see Jamie's face when Angela accepted her Golden Globe, by the way?
So yes, I absolutely am annoyed by Jamie right now and not for things outside of her control. White women get to turn their privilege into a joke because they got butthurt by it being pointed out once while Black women aren't even allowed to express their emotions without facing vile misogynoir.
If you, and I absolutely hold white people to a higher standard here, but if you want to acknowledge the hurdles women and specifically older women have in the industry on the platform that stage gives you, you do not get to leave out the woman in that same category who is affected by this even more than you. Especially while you're holding an award that an Asian American movie enabled you to win.

I think the fact that it says “because he’s left untreated” makes it hurt so much more like he had a chance, he could’ve made it but he didn’t

i have this silly little undeveloped au in my brain that's just like. tedependent but it's the sarah jane adventures. sort of. not literally in the doctor who universe necessarily but like. local intrepid reporter trent crimm investigating weird shit except the local neighborhood kids will not leave him alone.
i have so many thoughts about this but none of them are coherent enough for a proper fic i think:
i just think trent being good with kids, generally. go mentor figure trent! (what this has nothing to do with my thesis what do you mean)
trent, like sarah jane pre-series, having a sort of reputation in the neighborhood (or in general, since i'm also incorporating his actual canon vibes/story) as to being standoffish, aloof, cold, etc., and generally anti-social, keeping to himself. and as the kids keep dragging him into things kicking and screaming he might also be dragged kicking and screaming into a community <3
if his daughter is essentially luke does that mean he adopted her under Strange Alien-Related Circumstances? absolutely it does, yes.
see i've got two great ideas for ted/tedependent. on one hand, although in the context of SJA/nuwho i'm not so much one for sarah jane and the doctor as a Thing, ted playing the role of like. someone from trent's Mysterious Past who he won't talk about who set him on this path? someone who was kind and wonderful and changed his life but then--at least it feels like to him--abandoned him? someone who made him a better person--from doing whatever journalism he used to do to this--someone who he's still kinda in love with... but trent can no longer even really talk to......until he shows up again? that's some good shit, not gonna lie. although i'm jimmying that into a happy ending somehow, goddamn it.
ALTERNATIVELY. henry being one of the Neighborhood Kids (as if we're using "canon" kids, we've got limited options) and ted being an oblivious parent. trent is trying to get these kids to STOP POKING INTO DANGEROUS ALIEN NONSENSE PLEASE THIS IS HIS JOB PLEASE STOP BREAKING INTO HIS HOUSE but they're stubborn and smart and they may or may not have saved his life once or twice and oh GOD THIS IS SO IRRESPONSIBLE but he can't just TELL THESE RANDOM NEIGHBORS about ALIENS. but like anyway this just painful secret identity-esque nonsense where ted knows henry's taken a shine to that nice journalist down the street and his daughter but does NOT know that henry is getting into Shenanigans(TM). this could lead into all sorts of drama about, you know, his kid being in danger... or, alternatively, ted has worked with some unit/torchwood-esque place before and is like OHH you know what? this explains that time i thought i heard you speaking an alien language. cool, cool. and trents like. .....WHAT
etc. i'm not wording this well but i think you get the idea.
if you really really wanted to make it complicated you could do both, considering the doctor's whole thing--either a fob watch or a regeneration--but honestly, i don't want to do that, so i won't
some of the adults do definitely get involved though. keeley either clocks that shit right away or thinks she's clocked it but she's actually clocked something entirely different. she's like i know you're mi6 babe ;) and he. is not. meanwhile roy having ten freakouts in a row and then being like nvm i'm fine with this. (is not fine with this, but will be eventually). jamies like yeah aliens. everyone knows about those. and they're like what?? no they dont?? and so on.
is beard an alien? genuinely no one's sure. he's not telling.
HOLD ON can i give trent k-9???? can trent crimm get a robot dog?????? yes please i think he deserves a robot dog
also see the trickster episodes? bet you could do something real fucked up with those.
i feel like i had more when i started this post but i don't remember
this not well thought out at all and i have no idea where everyone would fit in
anyway my point is. trent crimm, intrepid journalist, running around trying to stop alien shenanigans while Those Meddling Kids keep following him around. trent crimm doin a little Breaking And Entering. scooby doo shit. and he has such an interesting mix of seeming suave and badass and then immediately doing something embarrassing. trent crimm--via shenanigans and also Those Meddling Kids dragging him into their lives (aka he tries to keep his distance SO badly and only is involved when dangerous shit is going down but like then it's all. child knocking on his door like IT'S AN EMERGENCY OPEN UP and hes like WHAT WHAT IS IT and theyre like can you help me with my homework :( and hes like. fuck. yeah fine what do you want help with. (some subjects he's very helpful on others he's VERY not) until they're like okay but you're coming to this bbq right. and he's like? no? and they're like you're coming to this bbq right. and so on) ANYWAY the point is they keep dragging him into their lives and now oops! trent actually knows his neighbors and has to go through the mortifying ordeal of being known. but that also means that when he gets badly hurt or sick he's used to the empty hospital room but now he actually gets people showing up and forcing baked goods on him and shit and i'm just feeling a lot of things about this extremely hypothetical au based on my already existing feelings about trent gaining a community in s3/post-canon,
wait does this mean trent gets sonic lipstick? HELL YEAH IT DOES

must be nice to get paid to write fandom articles and just blatantly lie with “Top Ten Most Popular Ships in *insert fandom*” and not a single one is queer.
Maybe if you live under a rock in Hetero Land, sure. But taking one step into any fandom for 5 seconds and you’ll know that those het ships make up such a tiny tiny tiny percentage of the fandom.
And the only time we see queer ships in said articles is when it’s “Top 5 Ships That Won’t Work” or “Don’t Make Sense”
Purposely omitting queer ships and queer contribution to fandom spaces, and for what???? Because you don’t like them?

OKAY SO I may have accidentally lied about Light's Hogwarts house—because it's not Gryffindor like I thought it's Ravenclaw by a HAIR with Gryffindor as the runner up. Meanwhile L's is exactly what I thought it'd be; Slytherin with Ravenclaw following close behind.
Mello is a Slytherin with Ravenclaw close behind, just like L, while Near surprised me by pulling Gryffindor with Hufflepuff not two questions down 🧐
The only one I guessed correctly was L 😭
