#dude also complains about it a lot

[minty-bunni]

AU where Danny develops early arthritis and some chronic pain issues in his left hand as a consequence of the portal accident frying it.

When it flares up, he may have to alter his fighting style a little to make up for it and minimize pain or he may not be in the best of moods or condition. This (and the distraction it may cause) could totally be used as a reason to have Danny get hit by stuff he normally wouldn't. It could even be used for a reveal scenario or to change things up a little in general.

#danny phantom #i have a knee like that from when I danced competitively #let me tell you flare ups and bad days WILL have me walking differently or refusing to use it #id assume it would be the same for a hand #because if it hurts to move or use it why do do #kinda like Geralt's knee in the witcher saga #the books mention it a bit #specifically either when trying to move like he used to ends poorly/in pain/stumbling OR when he has to adjust his style to makeup for it #dude also complains about it a lot #i mean he complains about everything to the point even Dandelion was like stfu but still #point is it is realistic and relatable

people love to use ffxiii’s messy development as a reason to completely shit on the game but honestly the fact they managed to sneak in so many little details in the gameplay in a way that reflects the characters and story despite all the miscommunication between the dev sections is just impressive to me

#was xiii horribly planned out and missed out on a lot of important feedback because of the poor time management? absolutely #does that mean you cant be impressed with what the game achieved regardless of whether you liked it or not? fuck no #also the fact theres next to no bugs (not counting the pc port because... yeah) is amazing all things considered #and the graphics still hold up to this day #the linearity is everyones main issue with the game but look at x dude #x was linear as hell too but it makes sense bc yuna had a pilgrimage to follow #just as how it makes sense for the xiii cast to not have time to stop and explore cocoon while they were being hunted by the government #thats why you have so much more freedom to explore when youre on pulse #theres not even anything objectively wrong with having a game be linear in the first place #and the people complaining about the story being ''incoherent'' are just... wrong? #they give you enough hints within the dialogue to piece the story together yourself while also not leaning on exposition dumps to tell it #and if you cant do that then the datalogs are right THERE #games have relied on ''notes'' to tell parts of their story for ages now and i dont understand why its suddenly bad when xiii does it #i dont like sitting through exposition dumps and i like being able to analyse and theorize about a plot WHILE im experiencing it #and a lot of other people feel the same way so its not an objectively bad aspect of the game's storytelling #you just need to pay attention and be patient and wait for the story to unfold #i went off the rails but ANYWAY #aki stfu #final fantasy xiii

I was thinking about the fact that it's very funny that my parents had more problems with me being atheist than with me being queer.

Like:

"Sure hon, you have a weird perception of your gender and you could possibly bring home women, men or everything in-between... fine, love is love we will take you to the pride and stuff ^w^. BUT WHAT ABOUT JESUS CHRIST HUH?????"

And when I say they had 'more problems' I mean they were like "ow... so you won't come to church on Sundays with us anymore? At least the holidays?🥺"

like idk it's so funny to me

#sometimes I gotta acknowledge the fact that I'm lucky #if my catholic parents were bigoted I would have had such a shitty childhood and adolescence #I mean adolescence sucked anyway #but it could have been so much worse with shitty parents #steel rambles #also lol I forget how much having been a religious person influenced me? #like lmao “local tumblr user discovers that going to church for 15 years every sunday influenced them in some way” #but like not in a negative way #just in weird ways #funny ways? #like I read the bible thrice in my life #once because I wanted to know the story in general and the book I had was full of pretty pictures so nice #I've always been curious about religions an myths anyway #the second I was 13 and I was proving a point #yes I read the bible to win an argument #one about lesbians never being demonized or even cited in the bible #the third time I read just the apocalypse because it was cool and I wanted to impress a girl with cool references... #“local tumblr user tried to impress a girl with cool quotes from the apocalypse” you can laugh but I have no regrets #I also “complained” to God a lot lool #like dude if you actually exist I'm so sorry for the 15 years of gossips and complaining you had to endure #like idk for example my teacher was being unfair? #me mentally: “see God? see what I have to put up with??? like I can't belive she said that!!!!” #I treated God like an imaginary friend or something I think? am I being blasphemus?? #ahahshjshdhfhg

Most people really don't seem to understand that friendship is a two-way street.

They expect you to wait on them hand and foot as they rant about and constantly pour on you either their issues or their passions and when you finally have something you'd like to talk about you get a "Man that sucks :/" or a "Cool" in return.

Find somebody who doesn't do that. Then you'll have your best friend.

#i know i ramble sometimes and i'm extremely grateful that my best friend puts up with it :') #but see then in return i do the same for her because it would be completely unfair for me to expect her to act like a wall for me to talk a #or when i wanna show her something and i can tell she's being polite and it doesn't personally strike her fancy I MOVE ON #and she does the same for me and we have way frickin better communication and we have a frickin rad friendship #it's give and take #and also can we bring back the idea of being able to work through some things on your own? #like i am ALL FOR having a support system that can encourage you when things go wrong but some things can be solved on your own #i shouldn't be bearing the burden of figuring out your life for you you know? #i'm absolutely willing to help but if you're just going to spend all your time complaining to me and never ever take my advice #then there comes a point at which i'm literally just acting as your therapist and that's not how friendships are supposed to work #i've become kind of the designated therapist in a lot of friendships throughout my life #and it is exhausting constantly being complained at (sometimes over very minor things) #only to have that person or people COMPLETELY ignore your advice every single time you try to give it #that's not friendship my dude that's using me because you just want someone to complain to #like i said. support system good. treating your friend like an emotional punching bag to let out your problems 24/7 very very bad. #like when i was feeling completely unlike myself and irritated and frustrated for three dang years straight #i didn't really talk about it much because i knew it wasn't the kind of thing advice was going to fix #so i wasn't in the discord servers every two seconds “MAN I REALLY JUST DON'T FEEL GOOD :///” #because when other people do this to me there comes a point at which i'm like “WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO ABOUT IT” #like i've given you all the advice i have and you have taken absolutely none of it nor have you taken any action on your own #so now i'm just here to make you feel better about yourself and that's really not my job #emotional support is necessary. patting you on the head when you refuse to do anything to better your situation is not. #tl;dr people who refuse to do anything to better their situation other than complain to ME about it 24/7 drive me nuts #and it drives other people nuts so please don't do it to anyone #don't bottle up your emotions but also don't let them come crashing down and drown everyone you know #just because you can't be bothered to put ANY effort forth to contain them #emotional regulation is attractive~~~ #society today has built such a culture of “it's not YOUR fault and if you cry about it hard enough someone will fix it for you” like no sir #sometimes it IS your fault and sometimes you DO need to take responsibility #and if it is your fault then absolutely no one but you is obligated to fix it

Won't name the genre because I don't feel up to dealing with any randos who feel the need to be deliberately obtuse about what I'm saying but:

Sometimes I want to take some people aside and say "Hey, maybe this isn't The Genre for you, that's okay. What isn't okay is you continuing to engage with it and then complaining when it does what its supposed to do, or does something you personally don't care for and calling it bad or Problematic™ for doing so"

#the problem with engaging solely in one kind of media #or to weirdly puritanical beliefs #is that people don't seem to understand 'not every story ends happily ever after' #or 'this genre is meant to elicit certain feelings from you and its not bad for doing so' #and then get upset about it instead of like...just going elsewhere #or unlearning these weirdly ingrained ideas about what all media 'should' be doing #but also sometimes people just...keep engaging with media they don't like #and complaining about it and its like... #dude there's a lot out there you almost certainly WOULD enjoy #why not do that instead of continuing to go for things you don't like #and know you don't like? Are you catholic? Is that why you insist on suffering for no reason? #ANYWAYS #people who have known me long enough will know what specific genre I'm on about #(partly because I have kinda had this complaint before lmao) #but I dunno keeping it vague like this makes this point fit other genres too I'm sure

when you're disabled, being financially abused by your parents never ends

#so you're telling me that you got 5k this week from claiming me on your taxes #while hounding me about how i haven't been contributing enough to bills & expenses (i was giving you what you asked for!) #and none of it will go to me because ''i owe it to you for living with you'' #despite the fact that 5k nearly covers the mortgage for the entire YEAR #DESPITE THE FACT THAT I COULD PAY OFF MY OWN LANDLORD AND MOVE OUT #btw i literally only let her claim me on her taxes bc she said she'd be giving it to me. and this is the third time she has done this. #promised me it wouldn't happen again. she used me. #she does this thing a lot #where she acts like she's helping people but only does it to hold it over their head #i told her i could have been paying her more for bills but she told me i didn't have to #and now she's complaining that i don't pay enough #i will literally tell her not to help me sometimes #bc she'll do it anyway and then later on you hear ''i did something nice for you so if you don't help me with a favor right now... #...I'll do everything I can to sabotage your life'' #so she literally only does it for personal gain #so that she can have an excuse to feel like she's better than all of her kids and that we're just stupid ungrateful assholes #all 3 of her kids could be telling her that her logic is wrong and she won't budge #another thing that happened recently is that she told me i needed to pay her back for a gift she bought me that got stolen #which is also something she does a lot. buys me things without asking and then telling me i have to pay her back for them #i had way more stuff stolen that i had personally bought #i didn't ask for that fucking keyboard sorry. I ALREADY HAD ONE. #and she's been going on about how ''she's the one who's ACTUALLY being affected'' #she is FULLY AWARE that the dude she lets over has stolen from us MULTIPLE times #but apparently it's my responsibility to pay her back for something out of my control #STOP BUYING ME SHIT AND TELLING ME I DON'T NEED TO PAY YOU MORE IF YOU'RE JUST GONNA HOLD IT OVER MY HEAD #IF I'M SUCH A BURDEN MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR ME TO LEAVE #.bdo

Honestly I have realized that 99% of my shipping of vashwood comes from trimax. Yea I vibed with it while watching tristamp but trimax is what took my utter heart and soul

It's to the point where I just don't rly enjoy tristamp vashwood that much anymore hfkshfjd like. OK? Those sure are some dudes. Not My dudes tho, sorry.

#speculation nation #i'll still reblog the fanart if it's good. but yea it just ain't what im about anymore. #i feel like the worst vashwood perceptions r found within tristamp only fans anyways #(this post tangentially related to the post i just reblogged) #tristamp only fans see these two and are like 'this is the Angry Buff Dude and the Tiny Pixy Man' #which pretty much erases like everything they stand for? while also supporting racist caricatures. #not all tristamp only fans do this btw but i have definitely seen it much more around there. #meanwhile trimax vashwood is just like. this is an old married couple. theyre so hopelessly Goofy. #the angst is off the CHARTS. the love even more so. #they very genuinely love each other in trimax In Canon and that's what really gets me. #plus theyre pretty similar in height and build. Adult Men!!!! i like this ship for Adult Men!!!!! #idk this also relates to that post i made yesterday about fandom perception of vash being an innocent uwu virgin #despite being 150 or so years old. & they'll also make wolfwood some sex god or whatever #when comparatively hes been an adult for a MUCH shorter time than vash. my dude's still a pretty young adult ok #and you wanna tell me he's got more sex experience than the 150 year old dude????? ok... #lol im just complaining at this point. i have very specific views of my ideal version of this pairing #and a lot of fandom portrayals are starting to bother me bc of it. #so im just writing my own vashwood my own way. rn focusing on vash being a rounded person #yes having some childish aspects. but also some mature aspects. he's a goofy adult. it can exist simultaneously. #looking forward to when wolfwood finally comes in. i hope to do him justice.

while i'm complaining  about men, I just got told in a slightly passive-aggressive tone by a man i've known for less than 5 months that "clearly, validating people's feelings is not my strongest suit" because I told him as kindly as I could that while he can call me when he's having panic attack, there's no real guarantee that i'm gonna be available and even less guarantee that i'm gonna be able to comfort him in whatever way in need, especially if he need any type of physical comfort and I'm just sitting there like...You know what my dude, if that's gonna make you get over your annoying ass desire to hug me then feel free to assume that i'm actually even meaner than that, imagine me as the world biggest bitch all you want, i'm fine with it

#dude was clearly already annoyed with me because i didn't agree with whom on two things he was complaining about #not gonna go in details because he deserves some privacy tbh #but i will say that no i'm not gonna pretend to believe that someone is always right just because they have mental health issues #i always try to see someone's point of view in a situation but i'm also very much the friend who will tell you if i think you're wrong #a lot of people claim to want that kind of honesty in their life but when it means being told that they were wrong it's suddently bad #anyway ok bro i have no emotional intelligence i'm cold and distant and i can't be your primary support now can you chill? #that's gonna sound so fucking mean but sometimes i wonder why he even bother with therapy #like if you need that much validation from a random girl you barely know what do you pay this fucker for??? #anyway let's hope he got the hint that no i'm not gonna pretend to be his best friend when i barely know him nor his mom nor his gf

[corvidaedream]

its ridiculous that everyone in this house gets along so well except one girl who hates all of us and any time her friends are over and are, like, courteous to me as a guest in my house, she gets huffy about it

#messages from the ouija board #like dude i said hello to raina and she said hello back u dont need to make annoyed sounds so we both remember u hate me #for the record she has stated that she hates me bc i act like i think im older/more mature than her (im 5 years older than her i AM older) #and bc i have 'no common sense' and IM A WATER SIGN #she had a whole list she texted to the group chat once bc i was like hey is something wrong u seem angry at me #and she was like 'um yeah i hate you' it was SUPER WEIRD! #anyway i cant wait for her to get sick of us all and move out #also she complains a lot about people stealing her food so we have to label it and then she goes and eats jas's snacks anyway :)))

Thinking about men and masculinity after blocking a t.e.rf and now im a little sad

#society as a whole has done a lot of damage to men and there's a lot of pain behind it #even within the queer community - I'm looking directly at the ''women and nonbinary'' spaces ive seen irl #id like to believe at the bare minimum that bc im trans i have at least a slightly more nuanced view of gender #and I'm a little saddened by how i see it talked about #thinking also of a post that said ''went to the blog of a transandrophobia truther so i could block the freak'' #and thinking of how i follow someone who does indeed use that tag with he himself being a trans man #and the tag was dispelling myths about testosterone; discussing how trans men are seen as Man Lite; and genuine #aspects of transphobia that affect trans men specifically; but i think some of that gets thrown away in the grand scheme of #men have privilege so trans men shouldnt complain; which also loses the intersectionality of queer or poc trans men #so thats great i guess /sarcastic #idk. like ive said before i think i just need to follow more men; specifically men who understand how gender works #while rambling in here I'd highly recommend the video ''gender theory for dudes'' by chill goblin #felt like a nice breakdown of what happened to men from a sociological standpoint and goes from the ground up to explain it #hoatm rants

[idiosyncraticrednebula]

Many chicks on social media will talk about how much they “hate” men and how “ugly” they are, but in the same breath, will get h*rny and thirst for male celebrities, fictional characters and influencers...

Make that make sense.

#text #cognitive dissonance at its finest #you either hate men or you don't. pick a side #i just feel like a lot of these chicks secretly crave dick so badly but are unable to get the men they want #or they just have shitty ass men in their orbit #also worshipping women is not a sign of how much love you have for them. it just shows how limited your view of women really is #they do the same stuff they complain about these males doing #notice i said males and not men. there's a difference #but yeah. just admit you want the pp. it's not that hard #like y'all swear up and down that men are disgusting but get hot by fictional ass mf's that are probablt worse than any shitty ass man #you have ever encountered in your life. what's the difference? you find the ficitional dude hot. that's the difference #lbr no matter how much you think you are grossed out by men you still crave their masculinity because deep down you know you need it #and that it turns you on when it's in its right place #i'm not fooled by a lot of these chicks. i know y'all are lying to yourselves lmao #i'm waiting for some troll to come to my inbox and tryna insult me for posting this lol

*stomps out onto grass and wags cane in air* you kids and your live action remakes of disney movies!!! ooohhh!!!!

#ik i sound like a boomer or a gatekeeper or whatever i just. hate the entire concept of these so fucking much #and i hate being scared to bitch about it and how creatively bankrupt they are bc some of my friends like them a lot #just like im scared to complain about how annoying the MCU and DCU are #but god. god i have not seen a single disney live action remake i enjoyed watching #also the MCU and DCU and star wars are all annoying as fuck and the longer they go on the more and more they are sapped of any personality #and the more by the numbers they can become #im not a film critic im not a genius and im sure as fuck not majorly informed on film theory or making but these movies are all so fucking #boring to me. i wish the people behind them instead 1) didnt do live action remakes of beautifully animated 2d movies and 2) had an end #goal in sight that didnt waver indefinitely to include as many IPs as possible between the start and end of the series AND didn't already #have a plan in place to do a reboot or continuation as soon as that last movie in the story arc is over #every time i watch an MCU or DCU movie it feels so by the numbers and/or attempting to pull in the same success as previous releases #this obviously isnt mentioning how shitty the studios are for treating their workers how they do or how bullshit the people running the #MCU are for insisting on filming in the greenest screen to ever have screened so even the actors dont know what scene theyre acting out #or to mention the racial problems or sexism or anything like that #just how annoying these things are to me. i just want to watch movies dude. i dont want to watch movies with the biggest budgets and the #worst greenscreen ive seen since 2006 because the artists are overworked and not paid nearly enough #this obviously plays into other films as well but the disney live action remakes and MCU and DCU and star wars annoy me the most #im not watching live action pinocchio. im so tired of it #spooky speaks

If aged, entitled straight white men have anything, it's the audacity.

And the money. And the power.

#i was damn near ready to fistfight this old man at the bank #complaining about the wait and over-exaggerating it #while going on about how nobody wants to work anymore and restaurants also dont have enough staff #and saying “we've given them too much free money” #he didn't get the idea to shut the fuck up after i turned around to give him some very dirty looks #and then he started in on the teller at the bank #and I finally shouted that he could drop his entitlement and called him a piece of shit #was that the right way for me to behave? hell no #but i have almost unending patience for workers just trying to slog through a lot of demanding work #and negative 1 million patience for entitled dickheads #crawl in to your casket and shut the fuck up dude

Some information about me no one on this website asked to hear is that I’m a really loud typer and I write for a living and literally all I hear in the back of my head every day I’m working is my college coworker looking at me and asking: “why do you type so angrily?”

#this man made me so self aware #he once asked me: ‘did you know you complain a lot?’ #like not in a mean way just in a very straightforward way #and bro I’ve never been the same since fmdncbsjshd #I also once told him he was one of my closest friends at school and he was like ‘I literally know nothing about you but yea we’re friends’ #he was a very straightforward dude lmao #I now complain less and open up to people more so thanks bro #but god he’s such an enigma #miss that guy lol #i got some wildin stories out of knowing him
