ohhh my god, i forgot about this
#personal#im still thinking abt comparing shima and vash 🤔#ive thought abt them and they both are averse to conflict but for different reasons. and diff reasons for self loathing.#my boy shima has low emotional intelligence and is a people pleaser. he'll do what other ppl expect of him. he wants (?) to fill his role#BUT he still wont like it. mitsumi listened to a rumor abt him and he silently got pissed abt it and avoided saying why. he compared#himself to a nazi soldier bc he hates his inability to change/be decisive/commit to improving himself#from ch 10 to almost where the series is at rn he's still struggling w that. he prioritizes how he's perceived over anything else.#how likable he is is how much hes worth. he doesnt think hes allowed to be happy otherwise#shima also doesnt believe himself (?) when hes kind. he claims he doesnt really care. even when acting to make someone happier is#good enough evidence probably that theyre kind lol. if ur actually shitty u wouldnt do smth#while vash has the uwu puppydog babygirl vibe as much more of a strategic way to ease tensions. hes also performative in his role of#human typhoon and his rep. he doesnt like it ofc but chooses to use it in regards to others. while alone he might be full on suicidal#and trigun is ofc an action sci-fi but if u replace the ppl vash has unintentionally hurt w 'disappointed' (to be relevant to shima's pov)#its similar. tho the twin in trigun are meant to be hypocritical. vash specifically imagines second chances/love&peace for everyone but him#and goes out of his way to imagine rem (his mother!! who he idolizes) being disappointed w him if he does make a mistake#how trimax ends also kinda skips past his personal development concerning his perception and unintentionally (imo) uses him as a tool to#end the story#sorry i wrote an essay in the tags FHSDFHJSD

Turbulence of stars
Grass gently brushed upon my skin erasing all worries as I laid defenceless against the light breeze,  just wanting to be free of all the burdens and expectations. Turbulences of Stars twirled the sky dancing freely, a sight worthy of the biggest wall in a museum. a calming phenomenon strong enough to overshadow all your emotion with nostalgia. “ Stars this is my only wish! Please don’t lead anyone to this place.” I stretched as I closed my eyes to make the wish.
“Make waaaaaaay!” A high pitched scream arose from between the bushes.
I rolled into toward the right, scared for my life as I accidentally fell into the lake. “Seriously?..” I looked at the stars internally cursing them.
“Hi! I’m Anna, oh and this is Lucien. He’s my stupid friend who drove us into the lake.” She approached me with a bright smile.
“No.” I calmly responded before walking away, I have enough to deal with and I ain’t got the time nor energy for this.
“Nice to meet you tooo!” Anna shouted her voice radiated with energy that could light up a while neighbourhood. So I ran faster, I’ve never done this much exercise since my time in college considering I never went to college.

If my mom sees a significant amount of blood she gets lightheaded, and has fainted on some occasions. Once it happened when we were kids, I wasn't there to witness it but I heard the story from my dad. Basically my brothers, around 7 or 8 at the time, were playing outside while my mom was making their lunch, and she accidentally cut her finger. It wasn't anything serious, but it drew a fair bit of blood and she passed out. My dad saw this and rushed over, but he didn't really know what to do so he just sort of started slapping her to wake her up (not recommended, but he had no idea and panicked)
At that exact moment my brothers both came in from playing, and all they saw was our mom unconscious on the floor and our dad slapping her. So, like, without even saying a word to each other they both just INSTANTLY start whaling on him, like, full blown attack mode to defend our mom. Which obviously didn't help the situation, but she did wake up and everything was fine.
Now our dad says that he's actually really glad they attacked him over what they thought was going on, because it means he raised good boys. And I still think that's true, they're very good boys.

i do enjoy "living weapon" characters but specifically living weapons who did in fact do absolutely horrific things which at least a part of them enjoyed and thought was good and right at the time, and that no amount of not knowing any better or guilt they feel in hindsight will ever make up for. i love living weapons who are "irredeemable", and no it's not their fault that they were made that way or pointed in the directions they were by the hand that wielded them, and yes they are victims, but so were their victims. living weapons who some people will never be able to forgive, but who still wake up every day and try to do better than what's expected of them. a sword that uses its blade to cut wheat to make bread for the people who once lived in fear of its arc falling on their heads.

“In the war film, a soldier can hold his buddy—as long as his buddy is dying on the battlefield. In the western, Butch Cassidy can wash the Sundance Kid’s naked flesh—as long as it is wounded. In the boxing film, a trainer can rub the well-developed torso and sinewy back of his protege—as long as it is bruised. In the crime film, a mob lieutenant can embrace his boss like a lover—as long as he is riddled with bullets. 
Violence makes the homo-eroticism of many “male” genres invisible; it is a structural mechanism of plausible deniability.”
–Tarantino’s Incarnational Theology: Reservoir Dogs, Crucifixions, and Spectacular Violence. Kent L. Brintnall.

The manga industry, especially JUMP, needs to hurry up and do away with weekly scheduling for mangaka. There needs to better regulations put into place for their health and safety because this is pitiful. Two weeks - monthly updates should’ve already been the standard for the manga industry at this point. These money grabbers will only continue to put the lives of these artists at stake for the sake of capitalism unless some serious changes are implemented.

i feel like not enough ppl are factoring in the cultural clash between laios and shuro and the many micro agressions shuro faced while being in their group. literally the name 'shuro' in itself is one
Tumblr media
his name is toshiro 😭 lets also not forget that he has his own communication issues, in the opposite way that laios does- thats literally a factor in their argument, that his envy for laios's ability to express himself sincerely manifested as part of his distaste for him.
ig all this to say like, was their fight heart wrenching, especially when reading laios as autistic? absolutely. anybody whos ever been in laios's position knows how much it hurts to realize someone you thought was your friend doesnt actually like having you around, especially when they didnt tell you and you had no way of knowing due to not understanding their cues. but im begging yall to step back and see the nuance of this situation cause im gonna be real a lot of you are kinda just brushing over it acting like everything is toshiros fault and that hes a terrible person when in reality hes an average guy who really, really clashed with laios and it led to a very long misunderstanding due to their supremely opposite methods of communication. even laios and toshiro, after letting everything out in their fight, were able to come to an understanding and start a foundation for an actual friendship built on better communication

not-so-friendly reminder that hunting is an important part of conservation in many cases and that painting all hunting as morally, ethically, and/or environmentally "bad" does a major disservice to indigenous people, poor communities, and our environment

Phantom, the new addition to Young Justice, just accidentally made Impulse cry.
Whoops.
Impulse had been talking about a candy that had been in the future, that he missed a lot, that had no equivalent in modern times.
So the next time Danny was in the Zone, he asked Clockwork if he could reach into the future and grab a bar. Clockwork just told him that the timeline he was talking about was dead, but that the people from it were occupying the Zone if he skipped forward in time a bit; maybe one of them knows how to do a homemade version?
So he does that, with the help of Clockwork, and manages to find someone from that doomed and dead timeline that knows how to make a homemade equivalent.
He returns to the world of the living and recreates it, and Impulse is beyond ecstatic for both the food and the recipe.
Then he asks where Danny found this.
Danny, mostly human but having been something other for so long that the concept of 'Death' doesn't hit him the same way, cheerfully says he sought the dead souls of the future that had been dissolved and asked.
Now everyone is glaring at him and Impulse can't stop crying.
Shit.

A TECHNIQUE FROM SHIFTOK THAT WILL GET YOU INTO THE VOID RIGHT AWAY ⋆𐙚₊˚⊹♡
Tumblr media
So there's been a new technique that was developed from @rima shifting on tiktok and it's been getting really popular. If you wondering, " can we use shifting techniques to enter the void state? ", yes you can! Don't worry, you won't shift realities lol, but you can use them to affirm for the void state <3 . The original creator ( rima) has said after using this technique, she's shifted to multiple parallel realities on the first day using this.
✮ ⋆ ˚。𖦹 ⋆。°✩✮ ⋆ ˚。𖦹 ⋆。°✩✮ ⋆ ˚。𖦹 ⋆。°✩✮ ⋆ ˚。𖦹 ⋆。°✩✮ ⋆ ˚。𖦹 ⋆。°✩✮ ⋆ ˚。𖦹
♡ How does this technique work?
It's involves the Wim hof breathing technique and pink noise. It's very easy to do and you will get into the void state on your first try using this ♡. Wait, ik some of y'all think that wim hof breathing is very fast pace, but there's an alternative which is the beginners one and people still shifted using that. Wim hof breathing is the best when you're trying to relax and release all stress/ doubts because it makes your thought process slow down by releasing dmt NATURALLY. This technique works by putting your body and mind into a deep trance state, whereby after you can start affirming for the void state. And don't worry, if you fall asleep because this method also helps you to lucid dream. If you do so happen to fall asleep while attempting this method, you're might find yourself in a lucid dream, you can affirm for a portal or dream character to take you straight into the void state.
♡ Technique in full detail :
1. You attempt this technique before bed, morning or during the day. Whatever time suits you the best <3.
2. Go to YouTube and search " wim hof breathing " or " wim hof breathing for beginner's ".
3. Play the meditation and follow all the steps, it's guided for you ♡. It's completely ok to take breaks any part of the video.
4. After the meditation finishes play the pink nosie. You can make a YouTube playlist and add these 2 videos. So the pink noise will automatically play after the meditation finishes. Also loves, you don't have 2 add the pink nosie, you can add your fav subliminal or theta waves, etc.
5. Start affirming for the void state, you will reach the void really fast because you already in a trance like state.

Jade (part 1)
“Jade! Jade! why is he not answering?" The father screamed as he walked through the dim-lit hallway. The mother chased after him as he broke the displayed pieces of art. "What the hell is he doing?! Why isn't he training?" he asked the mother in rage as she stepped in front of Jade's room. "He's reading. Leave him alone. He needs some time for himself." She replied, spreading her arms to block the father from entering. "He's autistic. Can he even read?" "He's autistic, not illiterate." She said before lowering her voice, hoping her son didn't hear them. "Please, john, leave him alone just for today. He's been having a hard time." "So I have to sit and watch as he gets bullied?" "No, he will train with you later, just not today. Have you seen the bruises on his body? He needs to rest." Her expression darkened. The father pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration, "Fine… but if he doesn't come to training tomorrow, I'll drag him there." The mother nodded helplessly before knocking on her son's door, "He's gone now, baby. Get some rest. If you get hungry, there's rice and Mongolian beef in the oven. Your dad made it when I told him it's your favourite." Jade was cramped in his closet, reading one of his favourite books. He loved this fictional novel so much as it never got boring, no matter how many times he read it. Time went by, and Jade fell asleep after re-reading it for the third time that day. Feeling a nudge, he woke up to find himself in an unfamiliar place, surrounded by little kids giggling. one of the kids was about to fall on his face as he approached Jade, but Jade caught him and laid him on the grass. He then proceeded to give him a spinner he had in his pocket and said, "That's too dangerous, play with this." The kid looked at the toy in astonishment before running away with his friends. "Those Little kids! Come back here!" A man ran up to the tree jade was resting under, "Are you, okay man?" Jade nodded, the man reached his hand out to help him up, and he took it. As they walked together, Jade realized that the man was not human. He had quartz-like eyes filled with confidence. His blonde, clouds-like hair was tied in a short half-ponytail making his facial features pop. His pointy ears were embedded with tear- like gems. "I haven't seen you around here before. Are you a traveller?" "I think so." Jade answered as he stared at the metal trees pouring some golden syrup into milk-like bottles. The man puts his hands intertwined behind his head before asking you about where Jade comes from. "Earth?" Jade answered, not sure what to say. "Yes, and I come from mars." the man laughed, but he noticed Jade wasn't laughing. "Wait, seriously? You better not be kidding me!" The man dragged Jade away from the place they were heading to and proceeded to move toward a clear purple lake in the forest. Barely any sunlight reached the lake. Fluffy clouds and three moons were visible in the water, surrounded by glowing tree branches and weird-looking fruits. "Jump!" "What? No. I don't even know you." Jade took a step back. "I'm Lanor Boxwood. Nice to meet you. Now jump." Lanor commanded.
Jade stared at Lanor, stunned as the realization struck him, "I'm inside the book." but before he could say a word, Lanor pushed him into the lake and jumped after him. "Run!" he dragged Jade toward a hut made of tree branches inside a cave. Lanor locked the door and then asked Jade to follow him. He led him to a cafe-styled living room and started preparing some glowing blue coffee beans. "Iced or hot?" "Iced, please." Lanor took two coffee cups from the freezer, then continued to make the coffee in silence, and soon the smell of freshly made filled the place. He took a glass cup and drizzled it with white mocha-like sauce. Then poured the golden milk from the trees into it and finally added the shots of coffee. Lanor gave Jade the cup of butterfly blue coffee and sat down while sipping his hot shot. They sat there in silence for a while until Jade yawned. "You just drank coffee. How are you sleepy?" "Coffee makes me sleepy." "Here, sugar should do the opposite. We'll be staying until tomorrow." He pointed at a room in the corner and then said, "You can sleep there and no matter what you hear, never open the door unless I say Aulerenth." Jade nodded, then headed to the metal-doored room. The room was cosy, the walls covered in flowers and branches. Each flower had an icy gem-like core. Their petals were sturdy but softer than silk. The bed was comfy, the blanket was warm, and the only light in the room came from the flowers' disks. Jade heard knocking noises, and screams filled the room after them in seconds. "Let us in. Please, let us in. Help us." The screams got louder and harsher with every minute. Jade closed his eyes, scared of making a sound. He held onto his puzzle piece necklace, playing with the part that spins to calm himself down. A while later, Jade remembered he had his sound-cancelling headphones in his backpack. He put them on, and soon after, he fell asleep from the effects of the caffeine. In the morning, Lanor knocked on Jade's room, but Jade didn't open it no matter how loud Lanor screamed "Aulerenth.". Lanor kicked down the door just to find Jade still asleep. He woke Jade up, instructed him to wear shoes, and walked away. Jade did as Lanor instructed then went to the living room, Lenor wore his jacket and shoved a sandwitch in Jade's hand. "Name." "Huh?" "What's your name?" "Jade." "Listen to me Jade," Lenor grabbed Jade's shoulder, continuing in a warning tone, "If anyone asks about your name, where you're from, or any personal information don't answer them." "Why?" "I don't have time to explain but trust me. Also, hide the necklace." "You're my favourite character in the book, I trust you with my life." Jade thought, but he didn't say anything other than the word "Okay." while nodding. Jade followed Lenor and went through the back door. The sky had fluffy clouds and three moons shining in different colours, the same ones he saw inside the lake, but now the moons looked closer to each other like they'd merge sometime soon.
Lenor looked at the sky before cursing, then moved faster, "We don't have much time left. We need to get you to Akataya as fast as possible."

I really do think that it’s good for the soul to be unironically pretentious about something. Not in a gatekeeping kind of way but in a “yes, it really is that deep and I would love to enthusiastically and passionately explain why” kind of way.

regardless of how you feel about homestuck you do have to admit that the story concluding with almost all of the major characters literally deciding to just say fuck it and abandon the story entirely is like. an absolutely iconic narrative decision. you know what i'm not doing this shit anymore. figure it out. bye.
