god cis people need to shut up about EVERYTHING.

#not a nuanced take. idc. im upset. #they talk about us like we arent even people #'transgenders' is soso dehumanizing. #they talk about us like theyre sure we dont hear them. like those freaks having 'easy access to hrt' dont hear them. #its frustrating. and you cant do anything about it. #like cis guys are repressed bc they cant get T but any 'girl' asking for some gets it the next morning. #they dont understand. i know they dont. but i do. and i am angry. #sillyposting #i kept quiet. #it was not bad. just. yaknow. cis talk about things they see as less than them. #all the more reminder that it is a good excuse to finally find a different job if i get HRT/operations. =-=b #its not a bad job its just. service industry yaknow. and i do not feel safe enough in that place to be a guy. #god the world is cruel. #do you think they know theyre hurting us? #i pride myself on looking very gay and looking like a guy as much as i can. but i dont think they see it. i wonder what they do see. #i need to stop thinking about all this. #god.

I’m sorry, WHAT does this ad have to do with ISRAEL? Did I miss something? Or do you have nothing to do with your pathetic little lives and derive pleasure only from being antisemites?

God, every day it gets SO MUCH HARDER to maintain hope and faith in humanity.

Commission for @the-skyler-stuff

Xiaolin Showdown is so slept on, man I miss that show ;w; such a fun concept and characters, it's kind of a shame it didn't get the same enduring fandom like Danny Phantom did 9w9

I was a Jack splicer guy, but hey I can't fault Skyler for Chase Young, love me a spicy evil dragon man

Edit: Yeah I forgot a whole page, I didn't learn how to draw a panther for nothing dangit!

The fact that Main-verse Ooo is as good and as kind as it is (relative to the other universes shown so far, at least, it's obviously not perfect) all because of the same character that starts off as the OG series' antagonist, the person we were made to see as the bad guy (albeit an often ineffectual one) for several seasons, is making me lose my mind.

Imagine finding out the guy you spent your childhood beating up and saving princesses from is in fact a driving catalyst behind you being able to exist, and not only exist but also live in a world that knows what kindness is. All because that man, the same man who you've witnessed do terrible things, once met a little girl and taught her how to be good.

Simon's story really shows us that even if you lose your way and forget how it is to be good yourself, the world keeps the memory for you. That act of love Simon showed Marcy by protecting her and seeing her as more than the monster she thought herself to be created ripples upon ripples, small at first but eventually enough to help give their wreckage of a world—a world that easily could have been forsaken, its goodness overlooked because of its inhospitable remains—a chance to grow into something beautiful. Because of those very same ripples Simon created, the people of Ooo grew up in a world where they know enough about kindness that they were able and willing to spare the 'bad guy' some, to see beyond the wreckage and allow him to grow too.

In saving Marceline, Simon helped to not only to save the world, but also himself.

But kindness? That reaches across time. one act of kindness sparks another #'I need to save you but whose going to save me?' That act of love and compassion is gonna save you ya dingus....eventually #In a less kind world finn and Jake could have watched those tapes about Simon and still decided IK was a hopeless cause. #That he was too far gone to be saved. But they didn't. They chose to treat him nicer and actually be friends with him. #One thing i always loved about IK's story is that he didn't have to completely change himself for people around him to treat him better #They changed their perspective and were kind to him and it was THAT that helped him change. to grow beyond the 'antagonist' role #to quote my go to and all time favourite good place quote: #'the point is people improve when they get external love and support. How can we hold that against them when they don't?' #Arrgh sorry I just always loved Ice King's arc in the show.

I kind of hate all the comparisons between kipperlily and like. Those fuckass "affirmative action fucks me over I wish I was [minority] so it would be easier" people because none of that. Is what she said. She said the bad kids already had more experience with adventuring before they got to augefort and it meant they had an advantage. Which is true. Yeah Riz was lower-class but his mum was a COP. Riz, Kristen and Fig had parents who were heroes (Sandra-Lynn is an active ranger, Kristen's parents are paladins, Sklonda is a rogue), Adaine's family was super rich and politically influential, Fabian had both. Gorgug's the only one who wasn't actively at an advantage [IN THE CONTEXT OF HAVING PRIOR KNOWLEDGE ABOUT HEROISM] and she didn't have shit to say about him. Kipperlily was the first person in her family to try heroism, the bad kids are largely legacy admissions.

Additionally to the people comparing it to the "anti-affirmative action" crowd: do you know what affirmative action is. The bad kids didn't receive special consideration on their admissions to aguefort or scholarships or additional financial support or extended assessment times or anything. How could she be mad about affirmative action if none of these people received affirmative action. What they DID have was knowledge about their classes that started much earlier than high school, which is what Kipperlily said in her file that she thought grading should be adjusted for because she did not have that.

To me it's less like affirmative action and more like augefort is like an IQ test. They pretend that it's fair and objective, but you can be taught how to do those things from a younger age, and if your parents took the time to teach you pattern recognition and shit then you'll do better on an IQ test than someone who wasn't trained for it and everyone will act like that makes you innately smarter when it doesn't. It just means someone taught you how to do that earlier.

Barring Gorgug, every one of the bad kids had access to information about heroism and their class at a younger age than Kipperlily did, which primed them for success in their classes. Every one of them got additional information about mysteries from their families (and even direct battle-tactics training from Bill), Riz especially with getting classified info out of his mum. Kipperlily does not have hero relatives. She's the first in her family line to attend a hero school. She knew nothing about it before her first day, meanwhile Kristen was already the chosen of Helio, Adaine had already been attending the best wizard school in the country, Fabian had already spent his whole life training with his father, and Riz was already involved in solving mysteries using info and tactics he got from his parents.

They aren't necessarily "privileged" (except Fabian and Adaine), but Kipperlily didn't say they were, she said that in the specific context of attending a hero school they had a prior-knowledge advantage. Saying they didn't is like comparing the grades of a kid who's academic career started with preschool with a kid who didn't attend until middle school and acting like one of them wasn't better prepared.

#like cmon people. you already hated her so you're reaching to justify it more #is it reason to be as hateful as she is? no. but she was 14 when she said the shit about riz's dad and. CRUCIALLY. kids from healthy homes #dont wish death on their parents lol. like objectively #shes not poor but neither is fabian. neither was season 1 adaine. and yet we wouldn't say their home lives were GREAT now would we #or that they had nothing to complain about just because they were economically advantaged #she thinks its unfair because she came into augefort blind meanwhile riz had been doing investigator shit for years already #and she has not learned healthy coping mechanisms. like brennan calls her anger childish and its because shes a CHILD #and she only became this cruel because she's possessed by literally the god of rage. because it was that or death #ive even seen people waxing tragic about every other rat grinder's “deal” with ankarna but acting like kipperlily was just fine with that #because she was angry already. she DIED. and having anger issues/emotional regulation issues doesnt mean you WANT TO DESTROY THE WORLD #she probably wanted to live just as much as any of the others did. and this was the sacrifice. she was 16 #d20 #fhjy #fhjy spoilers #fantasy high #kipperlily copperkettle

DISTRACTIONS sometimes its the drive to help and save our friends that pushes us to learn and to succeed. unfortunately its normally ''unethical'' to replicate that in a classroom setting. I ONLY JUST FINISHED THE LAST PAGE HERE, THE FIRST TWO WERE LITERALLY FROM LAST YEAR, N A FEW MONTHS APART. LOOOOK AT MY EVOLUTION. im very proud of this and bled REALLY HARD FOR THE LAST PAGE. PLEASE ABSORB THIS.

#gillion tidestrider #jrwi fanart #jrwi show #jrwi riptide #the last page honestly just took super long bc i dropped it for a long while. only recently wiped the dust off o it. #IM RLY PROUD OF ALOT O THINGS ABT THAT LAST PAGE #LIKE THE PERSPECTIVE N THE WIDE SHOTS OR WHATEVER #IT WASNT EASY BUT I MADE IT LOOK GOOD!! IM SO HAPPY WITH IT #I ALSO just really love drawing gillion as soooo small #just a little guy with the weight of the world bolted to his tiny tiny shoulders #n yknow what while im here ill talk abt the first two comics aswell. i like taking inspo from JTHM for this kinda stuff #more specifically SQUEE n the way his dad was just sooo honest and cruel to him. 'yeah its your fault my life sucks' n all that. i imagine #that gillion prolly dealt with alot o that too. i know weve already seen the elders #but i did initially imagine them to be very much like the Tallests from invader zim. they just hate this little guy. hes so small n lame #hes prolly had teachers like that im sure. i like thinkin about gills experience in school!! #i fell in love with him the moment he said that he wasnt good at being a student like girl ME TOOOO WAAAAAA #HE SUCKS In school and everyone is just sooo tired of him but they gotta put up with him bc hes the Chosen One #but GOD they wish they had someone more competent i bet. it was prolly a relief when they banished him #could u imagine being that? someone so insufferable that people sigh in relief when youre gone. poor poor gillion #ANYWAY THATS ALL MY THOUGHTS #TALK ABT UR THOUGHTS IN THE TAGS TOO DIPSHIIITT CMAAAHHNN

consider episode 4 if you will. the way that stede just barely touches his fingertips to mary’s shoulder while they’re having their portrait done. the way they don’t touch one another at all during their wedding ceremony, the way mary only reaches out to take his hand once it’s finished.

and then consider the fact that the moment stede wakes up, before they’ve even given one another their names, ed is reaching out to take stede’s hand. consider, if you will, the way ed draws stede into his arms when the lighthouse fuckery is a success.

just. no hesitation. instant ease. what thee fuck. what thefuck. wha a t

The fact that Apollo, the god of poetry, is always telling such bad poetry says a lot about his character

He's not actually bad at poetry, He's literally incapable of being bad at poetry, for fuck's sake. All that terrible haiku thing he does? Fake. He's fake. He does his best to appear as unthreatening(? as possible while still making it clear that he's powerful. He's cheery enough that people won't run away when he's near, but makes himself as annoying as he can so that no one will ever actually be near him

And how does he make himself annoying? By talking bullshit and spitting bad poetry all the time

a design (and short entry) for raphael! raphael, meaning “god has healed”, is the archangel that presides over growth and restoration. additional character info (+ an enraged palette) under the read more!

- raphael is deeply kind-hearted and graced with infinite patience, making him sought after for advice

- he is non-confrontational to a fault and stubbornly maintains that all is a part of god’s plan...including god’s disappearance

- he is the only other archangel to witness the death of the council by gabriel’s hand, heralding the start of his weakening faith

- tactics: raphael is not a warrior, instead supporting his allies with curative magic. highly defensive, he is difficult to wound and has an infinite capacity to heal others, but he moves slowly and can't inflict much damage himself. he will only enrage if one of his allies reaches critical health, after which he will bless them and stay close by their side

#ultrakill #ultrakill oc #raphael #i have made an enemy that is so screwdrivable.... #cannot stress enough how sensitive yet stubborn this guy is #i wanted him to feel almost out of place in this universe superficially #but his assurance of god makes him supremely apathetic in many ways #this world is brutal and cruel and falling apart...but he refuses to see it #however after the whole council fiasco he is THIS close!!!! #doodle tag #rise and fall au

Don't you guys get annoyed when you find a new piece of media to like and you go on AO3 in search of a good fic to really get into the fandom and you go "Oh these are all great! I love it here! I wonder if there's any male reader-" and theres none.

not a single one.

maaaaaybe a gn-reader.

but thats it.

What I like about Fear and Hunger is that it presents us with the question of “Is it worth it to sacrifice an innocent for the greater good?” and then shows us the answer of “Yeah...lmao jk it’s actually not” 

#dexrambles #dexplaysfearandhunger #fear and hunger #funger #fear and hunger 1 #f&h 1 #f&h the girl #the girl fear and hunger #yeah sure humanity does progress and thus reach its potential like what nilvan wanted #but it came through war after war #all the evils in the world still exist even after people began worshipping the god of fear and hunger #and I'd argue that le'garde's part in it only fueled his ego in committing more atrocities #a little girl was made to live a life of pure suffering and misery all for the greater good #but that greater good still wasn't obtained people were still killing and being cruel #and the other gods still want to have their own stinger measuring contest (as someone called it) through things like the termina festival #so yeah #a child's suffering was essentially for nothing lol #it's the whole driving question behind the ones who walk away from omelas #then again I only played the demo and watched playthrough #so this observation may be rather inaccurate #fear and hunger spoilers #mine own postsss
