tbh you are so real for talking about the misogyny targeted to mei & other women in the lmk fandom. in general its like people only value mei as: a: the wingman to some basic mlm ship or b: macaque 2.0. its honestly crazy how so many male side characters overshadow her in the fanbase despite not even having a FRACTION of her screen time. idk chat i feel like the reason people dont care about mei but care about some random male side/background character is less because they're inherently more likeable but because some of you view women as inherently less likable. and everyone is always like "mei is so girlboss pussy cunt slay shes the only reason theyre still alive because she keeps them safe from their silly boy shennanigans shes their ultimate wingman shes so badass shes their lesbian best friend i totally paid attention to her when i watched this show LOL" and even ignoring the obvious misogyny here (ie. how people reduce her to being the male characters babysitter) its like... okay... i know mei is cool & badass already... could you name literally ANY other character trait she has. like people just value her as being "the braincell" who can get red son and mk together or something stupid and its like are we having fun still is this still fun. literally every day i go into the mei tag its like "look at mei shes red sons wifey and shes vaguely in the background of this drawing of red son and mk staring into each others eyes #trafficlighttrio am i right oh look shes macaques niece now this post is about ao lie why is it in the mei tag"

and thats literally JUST talking about mei and it doesnt even begin to cover the other female characters. chang'e constantly gets reduced to being red sons aunt/mom/big sister despite them like. not having any actual interactions in the show. lady bone demon constantly gets overshadowed by her minion who has like 2 seconds of screen time, or she gets made into a cartoonishly abusive madwoman who people call lady bitch demon. just in general people act like shes a horrible person for like. being a villain. liks yeah the trying to destroy everything was bad but also she was an antagonist and thats what antagonists do LOL. spider queen gets completely ignored. princess iron fan gets made into a cartoonishly abusive mother so that way red son can have a poor angsty backstory and some male character (usually nezha, macaque, swk) can take care of him.

(also theres just a great deal of ethnocentrism in the lmk fanbase? like im white so take what İ say here with a grain of salt but so many people will misconstrue aspects of chinese culture for their own personal hcs. people will say male characters are transfem or nonbinary while completely ignoring the time period/culture their from where thats the norm. like yippee youve implied that an east asian man is feminine/emasculine because he has long hair. how do you not see the negative connotations with this. people also turn pif (& lbd to an extent) into a dragon lady which obviously has negative racial connotations lol.)

anyway this is where my unhinged rambling ends have a good day have a good night İ had more to say here but İ reached the text limit. İ dont see a lot of people talk about the misogyny thats prevalent in the lmk fanbase so İm glad youre pointing it out lol.

Yeah, I totally hear you. The lmk fandom has plenty of issues with misogyny and, like you said, ethnocentrism. It's definitely something worth having a discussion about, along with these issues in fandom as a whole.

#you seriously hit the nail on the head anon #(feel free to rant more! I appreciated reading yer thoughts) #tbh I think it's the purity culture like #If LBD and SQ were men. They'd be so popular it's not even funny #But because they're women. And women can't be flawed #(or their flaws are harder to justify- unlike a male character like Wukong. So they're a ''bitch'') #But don't worry! There's one girl character we can girlbossify and ignore all of those pesky flaws and characteristics!!! #I'm so sorry Mei #You're not a support character for spicynoodles to me #you're literally so insane about MK it's not even funny #she's going to become my fav character out of spite on god #when she was like ''what's the point of having power if you won't use it?'' #and azure was like ''i did not sacrifice everything to be an idle deity'' #And 1x03 was about her using her family sword (her power) to protect her house #And Azure used his sword (his power) to protect the world #And when Mei modeled her sword after Azure's (and now he's dead) #and when- *gets shot* #also Mei doesn't even have the fucking braincell #None of them have the braincell #They're all dummies. They're all scrambling around doing their god damn best #A main theme is the fact that no one knows what they're doing. Like #idk #lmk #lego monkie kid #torment nexus #asks #anon #lmk Mei

Every Tumblr user ever: I hate tiktok so much I wouldn't get near it with a ten meters pole

Tumblr every three days: Here's a brand new way we tiktokified your perfectly fine Tumblr this week

#Rant incoming feel free to ignore this #:( #Read the new @/changes update and I want to throw up. #What's going on seriously they were handling this website so well up to like a month ago. #What do you mean people who create an account after May 8th won't get a dashboard as default... Are you insane. #Did you hit your head or something #What is going on???????? #“Some folks will start getting access to certain badges based on different actions/accomplishments” with all due respect. Kill me right now #What is this???????????????? This is even worse than all the recent stretching and highlighting on mutuals / followers. #I don't follow anyone leave me ALONE #Like seriously someone really needs to remember Staff that the best part of Tumblr is the low competitiveness– #that literally every other social lacks. They used to know back in the day??? #And now it's all “Here's who follows you (((and by evident extension who doesn't)))”. Have you considered I DON'T WANT TO KNOW #Next update they'll hit you with a “follower count / likes / following is all public now btw 😊” #and that's going to be the day I'll disappear from the entire internet once and for all #Tbh I think I'm going to write some very polite but strong worded submission to staff or something. #I know chances are they won't even read it but things are so bad I don't want to leave anything untried #random rambles

why are people shocked that h*mas has treated the hostages with respect does anyone understand what the strategic point in taking hostages is? the whole point is to make sure they're okay and well-cared for because otherwise there's no leverage for negotiations. do i think the hostages are actually sooo thankful to the hostages for being so nice to them and their children? i don't know, i mean i wouldn't be surprised either way - hard to be thankful for being taken hostage but i can also imagine feeling pleasantly surprised when you are treated with respect and dignity by h*mas when they take you hostage.

i'm not saying taking hostages is good i cannot believe i have to say that but people will read that and say "ooHOOO so you're saying h*mas is good and kind, you're falling for propaganda!!!" no i am just using my brain. unlike everyone who is against a ceasefire at the bare minimum, because apparently yall are okay with the rest of the hostages being in harm's way.

not to mention the entirety of the palestinian population in the gaza strip are hostages essentially and the palestinian prisoners have NOT been treated with such dignity and respect for their wellbeing. but again, treating the hostages you've taken with respect is the barest of bare minimums.

#i saw some translated letters just now and LOL #ummmm also do you think it's possible they were coerced? #of course it's possible that they genuinely did appreciate being treated with respect and with relative kindness butttttt #i wasn't born yesterday folks #can we use our brains pls #those hostages are probably the most safe people in gaza tbh #because that's the point #although the israeli gov hasn't held back from just wiping people out left and right so either they knew the hostages weren't at risk or #they don't care #which... imo its the latter #free palestine #btw the answer is people are shocked because they're racists #and/or do not know anything about anything lol because rule number one of hostage taking is don't let them get hurt

Was Archie holding Mallum's phone funny as in the same way he holds his knife?

HE WAS IM SO GLAD THAT WAS CLEAR ‼️ it's also what made Mallum's panicked (and possibly mildly concussed) brain go I KNOW THAT FUCKER

Also you didn't ask but Archie picked it up and stayed close enough to be run into because it was Mallum's phone, he recognized it and was like "hm that doesn't bode well"

#it's not WHY i made him drop it but #a lot of my writing process is coming uo with things that need to happen #and then introducing new elements on the fly #and realizing i can tie them to necessary story beats #in this case: #there were any number of ways i could have resolved the phone situation #have mallum scoop it up on his way out #have one of the twins take it and mallum can yoink it back when he frees himself #make it so he never drops it to begin with #but i knew he was going to run into archie at the end #so i was like oh! archie can have it! #and that gives archie a reason to be nearby beyond sheer coincidence! great! #IT'S ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT WRITING TBH I LOVE HOW THE STORY COMES TOGETHER IN FRONT OF ME #i didnt know all that was gonna happen! #i didn't know mallum was gonna break elison's nose until i went #'how do i get him out of this?' #and thought back to the line about poetic irony from the beginning of the drabble #and then i was like YESSS EXACTLY WHAT MOLLIE DID TO GET AWAY FROM /HIM/ #IT'S SO FUN YOU GUYS I LOVE IT SO MUCH

i bet you think about me is so regulily fr

#like.. specifically thinking about a famous singer!lily au where her and regulus used to date #but he broke up with her as she got more popular as his family found out about it and he was too scared about getting disowned and stuff #so he listened to his parents and broke up with her and mentally tried to make himself distanced so he would actually be able to do it #and then lily writes the song about him #i mean tbh it also works with just. usual them. like them dating in school but his parents make him bw a deatheater #so he breaks up with her before even telling her about it because he knows she'd break up with him as soon as he does #like. “you grew up in a silver spoon gated community.. i was raised on a farm. no it wasn't a mansion.” #“reality crept it. you said we're too different” #“i don't have to be a shrink to know you'll never be happy. and i bet you think about me.” #“oh block it all out. the voices so loud saying why did you let her go?” #“chasing make believe status. last time you felt free was when none of that shit mattered cause you were with me.” #“it turns out im harder to forget than i was to leave. yeah i bet you think about me.” #SO THEM FR FR #I PROMISE YOU ALL!!! #marauders era #marauders #regulily #lily evans #regulus black

Thinking abt kazuma,,, thinkng abt how he has silver eyes compared to kazumi’s gold,,, as if even kazuma’s character design is telling the world he’s in second place, & that he’ll never live up to his brother’s example </3

#I’m a little fucked up about that tbh #also like the way when he was possessed by gyze he had golden eyes…would’ve perhaps been interesting to do more with that #like a ‘I’m finally free of ‘imperfections’’ moment #is it kazuma or gyze speaking? who knows maybe both #cfv #cfvg #shouji kazuma #also also I wonder if the dad has silver/white hair since kazumi does & kazuma has that little silver/white streak… #bc if so that’s another thing that could allude to his position as the less-favored son #like the little silver streak in kazumas hair shows he’s related to them #but bc most of his hair is blue it’s glaringly obvious that he’s also an outsider #like maybe kazumas mom has blue hair and that’s where he got it from. #(I don’t remember if we saw the dad in g since I only watched it once so it’s very possible we did and I’m wrong) #this is probably either me over analyzing or just smth obvious we were supposed to pick up but WHATEVER #just having kazuma thoughts yk how it is #this is from like last November help me I hoard drafts too long #thinking abt him again though. miss him. might fuck around and finish my cfvg rewatch

okay wait I'm writing an actual post so I can start handling all these emotions

#in the tags #because I am extremely aware of the privilege involved in buying extra content and even getting it shipped so fast #if seeing madison/kickstarter talk bothers you feel free to ignore this post! it'll likely be my last one on the subject. #but the thing is: three and something years ago I was deeply depressed and confined to my house because of covid #I hadn't been active in any fandoms in 3-4 years at that point and I started to think I'd never feel this passionate again #and then I read omgcp in a fit of insomnia one night #and then waited with baited breath for the last episode to go up so I could write a completley canon compliant madison fic #I spent six months obsessively writing it. #it was my first long fic in 5-6 years and working on it honestly - genuinely - dragged me out of that bad place. #when I posted it I knew one day it'd be jossed by canon madison but I was so okay with it. I couldn't WAIT #and tbh I thought it'd happen much sooner than it did #but now we're finally here and it weirdly feels like a big moment for me #like a: look where we were and where we're at now kind of moment. like a: end of an era kind of moment. #by no means the end of my omgcp era #but I think a part of me just felt unfinished as long as this moment was still unfulfilled #anyway. if you were here when I was completely new to this fandom and just started talking about that 2015 summer nonstop #just know you were a major part of my mental health journey during covid and that I appreciate it so fucking much #rip madison fixation 👋 you've served me well #text

They must stretch, it’s very important for my happiness

#I also know I've drawn RGeeBs stretching but his pose was different so does that even really count lol #This particular pose is my free serotonin #I think? it started with Evil X but I wouldn't be surprised if there were earlier versions that I've just forgotten haha #These are just the ones that immediately spring to mind - tbh I thought that Spamton's pose wasn't Quite as close to the rest lol #No I'm just very predictable :) It makes me happy! Haha ♪ #I wouldn't be surprised if some of my other brainrots had it as well haha #While they weren't relaxation-type stretches I did draw all those Lady!Edgars straining with boxes so that counts for something I think lol #And I've drawn myself in this pose - it's just a good pose! I like it very much hehehe

had a conversation about gym class with my friend who I went to school with today - it was depressing but also nice to hear that her experience with it (at that particular school) was just as bad as mine.

I don't think the way my school treated gym class was entirely normal tbh. it was completely different to the school I went to after, anyway. and everyone I talked to there only knew gym class to be a pretty fun, lighthearted thing. at my old school it was only about achievement, you had to be perfect, if not you were usually yelled at. and if you couldn't participate because you were feeling a bit ill (but not enough to stay home from school) you were ridiculed and/or insulted in front of the whole class. this happened with every gym teacher we had over the whole 9 years there.

it felt like two hours of punishment, there was nothing good about it. and it made at least the both of us feel like any kind of exercise/sport, especially in a group setting, was terrifying - for years after. even my much more positive experience at the other school I went to didn't make that go away.

#maybe my school really just sucked #I mean I already know it did. but maybe it did in even more ways than I thought #maybe it's a Gymnasium thing. idk. any Germans please feel free to comment if gym class at your school was like this #and it wasn't just because we were bad at sports or anything. I got very good grades in gym class at the other school. and my friend does a #ton of different sports now and everything #I remember there was a girl in my class who got a 1 (the best grade) in every other class and a 4 (out of 6) in gym class. and the teacher #was so fucking awful and gleeful about it. he made fun of her so much. #I'm pretty sure I was about to get a 6 in gym class right before I dropped out - and that definitely played a part tbh. I just couldn't #spend one more second with that gym teacher. he was horrible and gross and mean (and sexually harassed girls at another school! but of #course he was still allowed to teach at our school!! ľ #anyway. gym class was the worst part of my (already not great) life from 11 to 19 so I hope all my old gym teachers break both their legs :) #except one. he was really nice to us and didn't do any of the stuff the others did. but we only had him for a year in between all the other #ones so it wasn't enough :( #like one of our (female!!) teachers would loudly make fun of girls who said they couldn't participate because they were on their period and #in too much pain. #in front of everyone. when we were like 13. #I hate that woman more than any of the others. #lol it's funny how like half of my issues are because of my parents and the other half is because of that fucking school #I will never forgive my mother for forcing me to go there and never letting me change schools even though I asked to for 8 fucking years #personal

[milfygerard]

this is something ive seen a few times on my dash and i dont think ppl know this so i just wanna say that while its fun to joke about or even just discuss frank songs being about gerard a lot of the ones i see brought up frank has said are about like. his struggles with addiction (medicine square garden, veins veins veins) or complicated family situations (veins again, fantastic bastards tho not confirmed to be abt frank at all) idk i just want ppl who maybe didnt known to like know that

#barry.txt #this post is worded so strangely sorry #also FB isnt confirmed to be abt franks life it could be fictional or about d*wees. i know it has the ft willz quote but i think #they just lifted that bc its a great line and makes for a great chorus #veins veins veins and medicine square esp bother me bc i feel like franks struggles w addiction get sort of ignored or pushed to the side #despite being a very very present theme in his work #it kinda goes w his chronic illness and non gerard relationships as things that go kinda ignored when analyzing/discussing his songs #also i did just take ritalin. and its making me very chatty and ive wanted to talk abt this for awhile #i also do think it creates a very....idk what to say except fanficcy idea of what frank and gerards connection and friendship actually Were #this all kinda goes for the ft willz poetry as well tbh. i love thinking abt it and also love living in these #bitches discogd rent free jokes but its clearly aslo discussing franks chronic illness and struggles w touring and his relationship w his #wife #sorry oh my god. i wrote so much. its not that big a deal ive just thought abt this and havent said anything in so long #that i ended up having way more to say than needed #also im not mad at anyone for posting abt this we do not know these guys and these guys probably barely care #just. my brain. thats it lol

Viewed a house yesterday that was kinda shitty but the people who already live there were really cool, I said I needed to think about it and I'd contact them later to tell them, I realised I wanted the room yesterday evening, sent them a message, they didn't answer, I sent them another one a little after noon, they're still not answering, it's been almost 30 minutes, and I am feeling both insecure and sad

#like hey!! if you don't like my vibe at least tell me to my face!!! #i'm like worried for real that seemed like a good place to stay for a year #i mean. it sounded cold also. but the roommates seemed really cool #i think half of the 4 people were trans possibly and they play dnd together? my kind of people! #and they're not answering!!!! #i'm worried they either thought i was too straight (horrendous. i know i look like a straight girl but please) #or (more likely tbh) they saw me come with my mom and thought ah baby's first time moving out we don't want to have to teach her everything #but like if they could answer me that'd be nice. y'know. since i'm in a hurry #and i'm making up nightmare scenarios in my head and it's not very fun #i thought they were fine with me taking the room but was that too presumptuous? did they want to see other potential roommates?? #free me from my misery!! tell me what's going on!!!!! #wow i have a ramble tag now #england adventures

sorry i have to whine for a second bc i'm such a complete forgetful fucking idiot ig

#so. uni. am i right #on one hand. we're poor enough that uni will just give me Everything for free. i don't have to pay anything uni related. i don't have to #pay for lunch and dinner at the cafeteria or whatever it's called and most fuckin importantly i don't have to pay for housing they just #give it to you for free the first year right #so i was waiting for them to assign me the house. last friday a friend got hers #so i swear to god. i swear i was checking up to see if i got the house too #i swear i did #apparently i got a mail friday too? saying i had to upload a thing they sent me by saturday #but i didn't see it??? i don't fucking know how i missed it i swear to god #did i really check only one of the two places i need to check ? and missed the place that actually gave me the news ? #like did i really not check the uni mails the entire weekend. fucking. did i #i cannot believe i didn't check the mail. especially knowing that they were assigning #i checked the uni website tho and saw that my place on the housing ranking hadn't changed #STILL hasn't changed so i am so very fucking confused tbh #did i see the ranking didn't change so i didn't bother to check the mails? is that what happened #anyway. #does that mean that i'm done and i won't get another chance to get a house. that is so lame and bullshit if that's how it goes #first of all how can you just give me a day time. on the weekend too #secondly if i'm too poor to afford housing and i need uni's assistance. that is not gonna change if i miss the mail ya know . like #i'm gonna see if i can talk to anyone tomorrow and see if i get any other chance at housing #if i don't get another chance. fucking hell. i'm either dropping out. or #(<- not joking if i have to live w the stress and guilt of making my mom pay for anything i'm not doing this the main reason i #agreed to uni in the first place was that i knew mom didn't have to pay. and i 1. feel bad abt needing anything from her and 2. that would #put so much pressure on me to do good bc mom is wasting money if i don't do good that it would. kill me. like i would not be able to #accomplish Shit w that stress and pressure literally. so.) #or idk i'll. see if i find money any other way. pressure my dad to pay child support on time for once. look for a job even tho it's #nearly impossible to keep a job as a uni student unless ypu already had one before starting uni #like in a place where i have to be in class until 7pm most days of the week and don't have a car how am i gonna find a job that i can even #show up at AND like who's gonna hire me knowing all this. it would have to be some extremely part time bullshit and that wouldn't pay #enough either way

Love that all matriarchs in my family plus my grandpa on my mom’s side have all received divine communication at some point.

Meanwhile, I haven’t had any direct divine communication but I have heard from Satan.

#delete later #tw christianity #seems about par for the course tbh :/ #granted for all of the family members’ cases except one they were on the verge of death #babička suffered from psychosis though so idk if her vision was a hallucination or not #mine was just a straight up nightmare but. it tracked with real world events so. don’t know what that’s about. #but I think about my contact I’ve had every day #it was really disturbing #which like. dude don’t you have anything better to be doing??? #I have nothing against Satan he’s kinda part of why we have free will and I appreciate that but :/ 10/10 would not recommend #it’s been two years at this point and I just huh. hm.
