#has never wavered

I've had this in my drafts since season three.

do you guys ever think about how c!quackity LIKED the torture. Like straight-up admitted to liking it. Fully with his whole chest embraced sadism. Doesn't regret it. Never recants any of this out loud. Never opens the door to the possibility that he was wrong.

Tortures a guy for three months straight, then shrugs and goes back to his day job.

#c!dream and c!quackity #dreblr #like it's so fucked #any kind of conflict he has is strictly internal--he never wavers out loud #never admit guilt kinda beat

wild to me to see posts like "wow everything in the tempest is named after shakespeare...emet you melodramatic bitch you sure loved theater". because the prospero-emet thing gets played up so hard in the english script and you can carry it so far!

like prospero is an asshole magician who, after being deposed by his brother as duke of milan, settles himself and his daughter on a remote island, enslaves the local spirits using his magic, and bitterly plots to reclaim his past glories. he rules through violence and deceit, and only survives and is reconciled when his plots reach their fruition and his brother is taken to his remote island and plots ensue and everyone decides he was totally right all along and they were huge dicks to him and they're sooooo sorry and he gets to go back and be duke again wow! and it's okay because he's like "i was only doing mean magic to get my rightful spot back and now i'm giving it up because magic is evil. :)"

the tempest is what emet wants his life to be. prospero is not a villain in the text of the tempest. he is barely treated as antagonistic by the text and framing of the play itself. all his abuses, his neglect and control of his daughter, his enslavement of caliban and ariel (local spirits/monsters/people of the island), his deception and plots against his brother, his abuse of magical powers (not awesome, from the pov of the contemporary audience), all that ultimately gets swept aside in the rightness of his return to milan and the warm feeling of the world being set to rights. prospero can't undo the years he spent on the island but they are ultimately a blip in his life before he returns to the rightful state of affairs. his abuse and enslavement of caliban, easily the worst thing he does in the play, is totally set aside when caliban goes "wow now i see how truly benevolent my master is. i love him and see the ways of christian good and i'm so, so appreciative he chose not to kill or beat me even though he totally could have and would have been in the right. he's so just and intelligent." everyone loves and forgives him and they all agree both his management of the island and his ultimate return are so good and so wise and so right.

emet comparing himself to the tempest (or being compared to it, depending on how you want to read the diegetic status of the place names) is absolute wishcasting. it is an attempt to manifest the happy ending he will never, ever get because his sins cannot and would not be forgiven in the way he wants. he wants to imagine himself as the righteous returned duke whose crimes, including the enslavement, abuse, and exploitation of those he saw as his rightful inferiors, were totally worth it, i promise. and if emet is prospero, the warrior of light is his caliban.

#emet-selch #ffxiv #hades #shadowbringers spoilers #like by the time you get to the end you've already spoken to the amaurotine shades and hythlodaeus in particular #it's incredibly clear that even if emet's plans come to fruition he is *utterly alien to the world he is trying to restore* #and like prospero is restored in the end. but his wife is still dead. miranda grew up isolated and alone. #also to take a somewhat more jaundiced view #the things he did to caliban and to ariel can never be undone. that stain is with him forever. #and i mean even IF you can just yank all those souls right out of zodiark and fix the whole thing #there's still everyone who died before the first sacrifice and after the second. also THE VOID IS THE VOID. #'yeah uh we'll just fix that. when zodiark is up and running properly.' #sure dude i totally believe your expertise on the problem you caused by not knowing enough. you definitely know enough now. #anyways he can't waver for even a moment bc it means acknowledging he has betrayed everything he ever claimed to believe in due to his grie #he is in blood stepped so far etc. if i can be allowed to mix my shakespeares #emet-selch more like emet-sunk cost fallacy

Erotic hypnosis is great and all, but do you ever allow your subject to just be and exist in trance? Maybe just hold them in your arms, give them small pets, stroke their hair while whispering sweet nothings in their ear, with no other purpose other than helping them relax and let go? Just existing with eachother, and enjoying eachothers presence?

#my libido has been dead for a few days now #yet my love for hypnosis never wavers #i just really cant relate to all the horniness atm #like im just craving some wholesome hypno rn

ngl vincent tong as knuckles REALLY works for me. i do just hear kai half the time (which. understandable given he’s voiced him for a decade) but even ignoring that his voice work is really fun and a lot more consistent than nurada’s

#ep1 knuckles is Rough. but he got better #i think tong is cool!!!! i’ve never really had a fave knux voice but he’s a solid addition to the character’s history #renegade knux in the first few episodes wavers a bit between his kai voice and a more distinct one but i think he has it down by the time we #see him again and dread just knocks it out if the park agdhdjf #comedy gold. #dr deep is just real funny. annoying but funny. he just sounds like kai doing a deep voice AND he has a rip off samx outfit? hilarious. die. #text✨ #sonic prime #emotional support echidna

Trying to figure out how to draw again without stressing my fun exciting nerve injury that I have to live with every day now

#artings #tattoo design #black and white #spooky scary skeleton #art #if you liked nothing else in twin peaks s3 you gotta admit this line from gordon absolutely FUCKED #i never use a pen like this but it has zero forgiveness for fuckups or wavering so it's a useful like #rehab tool #fun fact this skeleton is from a vault editions book on death and mortality and he's 100% eating a baby in the original print :) #love a public domain artifact

me when star allies is so so so close to being a fantastic game with amazing characters like zan being the eldest who takes the brunt of hyness and her religion’s cruelty or hyness being someone driven to insanity over his religion and devotion and the darker tone of the ending is so interesting and the gameplay is wholesome and the dream friends are so awesome but its english translation is so botched and it shrugs off hyness’s actions with “oh he got carried away its fine teehee he and the sisters are on best terms afterwards despite him abusing them since childhood” and the main story is not fun to replay bc its so easy and i cant blame people for saying its mediocre because not everyone is as invested in coming up with a story from the lore but its agonizing bc the game was so close to being a knockout

#echoed voice #im listening to voids theme. and dying badly #w the hyness thing like. i get it its the friendship game everything has to become a friend #but like they went wayyyy too far in making him fucked up if they were going to do a very small quick redemption #especially one where the sisters never waver in their loyalty to him despite his abuse #like. starlight in mlp is similar but at least her followers were disgusted and afraid of her for… a little while #the sisters dont even get a moment where they realize hes terrible to them they just stay blindly loyal to the end #and like. it rubs me the wrong way so bad #get a job!!! stay away from them!!! #especially zan who he very obviously does not respect and he doesnt even remember her and uses her as a punching bag #yet she stays devoted to him and loyal to him. and like if this wasnt like an ‘’up to interpretation’’ story for a younger audience #itd be fine if she didnt realize what he did was wrong and we could have a deconstruction of her character #but kirby lore is vague and what we’re shown of the story is often in small bursts #(which is made worse when hyness abusing the sisters is most of his screentime as opposed to like one moment #where he seems to ‘’come to his senses’’ and then aw everyone loves him now no consequences for him) #its one of those few times i think the interpretive format for kirby lore falls flat

#wanna write an essay on his body language #a book maybe #broken up into different chapters of different ways he composes himself #bc he does different things in different situations when hes upset. #crossing his arms hugging tight to his chest making himself small #shaking hands brought to his temple wavering as he struggles to express himself #closing his eyes gently and hanging his head almost like his neck has gone limp under the weight of it all #staring straight ahead eyes unblinking and almost empty as though he were a million miles away #never quite letting himself cry even though he gets close so so often #<- chapter layout #3x01 #aaron hotchner #cm caps

To Employers Advertising Internships

First off, where do you get off trying to pay me, a person with a whole-ass Bachelors, $14 or less an hour? This is a bad wage regardless of educational status but you specified that this position is being aimed at graduate students. So when you offer to pay me less than $15 an hour (even $15 an hour is a stupid wage) you're basically telling me that $14 an hour is the value of my four year degree, which seems disrespectful.

As for the unpaid internships, I don't care if you are aiming them at fresh high school graduates or younger undergraduates and justifying paying them in pats on the back by saying they, "get paid in experience", you suck and you're taking advantage of vulnerable people. Yes, the younger people working for you count as vulnerable because they are lacking in experience, time, and money and they rely on people like you for that.

If you want to teach young people anything in an internship, teach them that their labor is of much greater value than others may try to claim. Right now the only thing you're giving your interns is a dread over entering the workforce full time as they are associating it with an amount of stress that ends up negatively impacting their productivity and creativity.

To summarize: PAY YOUR INTERNS MORE! Also unpaid internships should be illegal.

#To everyone looking for an internship right now #The value of your labor is more than what your prospective employer is willing to offer you #The world has become a place where you are expected to be okay being taken advantage of by wealthy people #never settle for the mud on their fucking boots #Yes I am currently wavering between communism and socialism why do you ask? #internships #pay your fucking interns #pay your interns more #long post I apologize

What does your heart look like?

molten lava and charred flesh Your heart burned so fiercely that it burnt itself out, leaving horrible scars in its wake; scars inside your chest and on the hands of those who touched you, the hearts of anyone who got close enough to connect to yours. The person you are now is no longer recognizable, burnt up by your own anger and passion and love. The injuries can never be fully erased, but they can be soothed with time and trust and forgiveness.

i dont care abt mordred like at all.. like he became a knight or whatever but i dont believw in any of his loyalty or motivation considering when we meet him again hes like. working for morgana + the saxons and also helping transport prisoners or whatever. which is bad already but then he just turned on morgana for arthur for no reason. and then turned on arthur for morgana after the whole kara situation (yknow when she tried to kill the man he swore fealty to. and he sided with her?? who he hadnt seen in however many years). flip flopping. wishy washy. man was not ever trustworthy alright

#if morganas whole thing was freeing magic and whatnot maybe it wouldve made a little more sense but after s3 all she wanted was the power #of the throne #and she killed like. regular people. civilians. and mordred was like alrighty im workin for her :] #dude. #he was wishy washy im telling you. he meets kara again after however long and she tried to kill arthur who he swore his loyalty to and hes #just like arthur sux actually because my gorlfriend tried to kill him and he was upset by almost getting killed #kara sucks too like her motivations make a little more sense with the whole freeing magic thing but arthur didnt condemn her for magic lmao #also being on the side of morgana and the saxons who kill civilians. #arthur was never depicted as ever executing sorcerers once he was king. even if he was on the anti magic stance he wasnt aggressively so…. #like when he saved that villager from the pyre in 5x03 even tho they were calling her a sorcerer #anyways not to say he didnt commit war crimes as like. a 15 year old or whatever. wish they explicitly followed through with #a herald of the new age #like i said we didny really see him pursuing the deaths of sorcerers so i mean he couldve followed through with his promise outside the #scope of the episodes #but wouldve been nice to see it within them lmao :( #anyway kara sucks mordred sucks i acknowledge that arthur has done wrong but hes committed to the good of his kingdom and its people #mans loyalty does not waver
