#i do love a good murder

[knifearo]

this year my challenge for everyone is to unlearn the association between love and morality. love is not something that is inherently morally good, and the absence of love is not something that is inherently bad. sex without love isn't morally bankrupt, it's just an action. people without love aren't less kind or less good, they're just people. when we can get past this false (and often unnoticed) dichotomy of good love/evil lovelessness then i think we are going to be able to take leaps and bounds in sex positivity, aro advocacy, certain discussions of mental health...

#and also. not the direct focus. but love doesn't make things good. you can be in love and do terrible terrible things. #people do bad things in the name of love and in despite of love all the time. #but!! imagine a world where people could exist as people and not be demonized. #sex positivity means being cool about All sex. reexamine your internal systems of moral judgement. #this goes for sex workers. for aroallo people. especially aroallo men. for aro people in general who might enjoy sex. #and frankly i think it can easily bleed into discussions about mental health disorders around 'not feeling' certain things #especially demonizing ppl who don't feel as much empathy. i think there's definitely a correlation between that and the emphasis on love. #our support needs to go out to Everybody and i think these things are all structured together in one way or another!! #it might not be immediately obvious but when i tell you it all leads back to amatonormativity..... little bit wild.... large bit wild.... #anyway. horror movie psychopath 'oh he can't feel emotions or love' damn alright. well. let's take a closer look at that. #silly that there's an association between lack of love and Murdering. feel like that might affect some stuff. #love is just an emotion/a feeling it doesn't mean anything about you one way or another #same with empathy. you can feel it all you want but it doesn't inherently change the actions you choose to take #anyway. thesis statement. there is a socially constructed link between love and morality. unlearn that. #kiss kiss (<— lovelessly) #aromantic #aromanticism #arospec #talking #aroace #aspec #sex positivity

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #lan xichen #jin guangyao #jiang cheng #wei wuxian #qin su #EDIT: Tumblr published an earlier draft with only half the notes I wrote so: late entry on my JGY thoughts. #Unlike the mystic powers of the stockmarket (what the OG meme is referring to) I think this situation calls for more active investigation. #qin su is such a deeply tragic character to me and I really wish we got a bit more from her. #Love everyone who sent me messages about her after the last time she appeared. #I think she needs a spin off of her being a transmigrator SO badly. #MDZS has so many interesting characters - but it sometimes fails to give them the proper room to really develop past a role in the plot. #That's just the consequence of writing a story like MDZS. Not every character in a book *needs* to have a rich inner life and backstory! #To do so would bog down the story and obliterate any notion of pacing. It's just not possible. #Jin Guangyao (nee Meng Yao) is unfortunately not free from this leeway rule. He is the culprit of this murder mystery plot #and thus NEEDS to encapsulate the themes of the book. And personally he's a 7 out of 10 at best on this front (in the AD). #MDZS is about rumours twisting reality and working towards truth. And about how people & situations are rarely ever black & white #JGY has his motivations. He's well written in regards to his actions making sense for his character. #What started as good traits (drive to succeed & improve his image) became twisted over time (do anything to maintain his image) #and it's a good parallel to WWX! He has the same arc (with different traits)! Bonus points for IGY in that regard. #but man....by the time we confront this guy for murder there's not a lot of grey morality. He's just...deep in the hole *he* dug. #There's a beautiful tragedy to it! More on JGY in later comics - this is getting pretty long already!

Prompt 104

 Danny finds himself reincarnating, giving it a try so to say. A new start of sorts, though he knows that Tucker will also be somewhere in the world and Sam will be keeping an eye whenever she’s not working on her uh, internship with Overgrowth. 

 He somehow, despite being in a world of heroes and villains, ends up reincarnating into some sort of assassin cult. Apparently he is keeping the Fenton luck despite a new life. Along with his white hair from his ghost form. Which is understandable with how there’s an ecto-pool in the room over. 

 He’s pretty sure his father is a fruitloop too, maybe. Well, technically he was a fruitloop for a human, but again. Ecto-pool that he was apparently taking dips in. At least this time he has some baby sisters- even if the toddler one keeps trying to stab him. 

 Honestly, feels like home. 

#dcxdp #dpxdc #Danny is Dusan Al Ghul #He thinks he's *hilarious* #as a reminder Dusan is known as the white ghost #Danny is loyal to Ras because he reminds him of a mixture of his parents and Sam #Also he apparently reincarnated before Tucker so he'll be waiting #Might as well help along this assassin cult for the lols #Danny: Oh my ancients I have nephews and nieces now #Danny pointing at Jason: Hey Talia are you gonna keep that or can I bundle them up in blankets #Danny: I am loyal to Ras except for my adorable siblings and baby nephews #Danny: I shall channel my inner Jazz #The White Ghost kicking down a door: AYO WASSUP FUCKERS #Everyone else: Wtf #The other Al Ghuls: Yes hello Dusan we see you we love you can you please commit a murder now #Danny: I am doing so good at big brothering (a completely normal thing to want a good grade in) #lazarus pits

"Deep inside, Wilson believes that if he cares enough, he'll never have to die."

What the fuck were the House writers on

#how am i supposed to live laugh love in these conditions #this quote is attempted murder #i cant live like this #This also puts the scene were Wilson tells House he wishes he was more of an asshole into perspective #“i wish i had been more a selfish jerk” “youd still have cancer” “atleast id feel like i deserved it” #because wilson spent his whole life helping people because some part of him genuinely believed that he would live a very long good life #as long as he was doing good and helping people #but in the end none of it mattered and in his mind he wasted his entire life being overly good when he couldve just lived how he wanted #because in the end it didnt make any difference #brb sobbing #thats why when people act like wilson is the devil for saying that to house i lose 5 years of my life #house md #house #greg house #james wilson #gregory house #hilson #hate crimes md #hatecrimes md #wilson #housemd

Actually I think my favorite part of Etho in MCC is the other competitor's reactions, bc No One Is Normal About Etho

#image description in alt #etho #ethoslab #cubfan135 #firebreathman #hbomb94 #mythicalsausage #jojosolos #twitter screenshot #mcc33 #i hope he gets to do so many murders!! #also Etho LOVES good minigames; im rly excited to hear his thoughts on the structure of mcc afterwards

#dracula daily #dracula #like viago does not do this to his victims #he treats them with courtesy and makes sure they have a good date before murdering them for food #because he's a good fucking person #literally not one of the wwdits vampires would be so dickish to their victims #I mean I'm not saying they wouldn't torture them #but like be a dick to a random victim who has been perfectly lovely and helped you will your real estate law questions??? #no

Thoughts?

#one piece #one piece meme #one piece memes #shitpost #seven warlords #shichibukai #buggy the clown #sir crocodile #trafalgar law #alignment chart #boa hancock #dracule mihawk #i think crocodile likes murder a normal amount for a warlord. if that makes sense. he's different than moria whose power needs murder #mihawk loves a good murder but needs it to be fun. blackbeard will kill anyone if it furthers his agenda. and doffy is insane #buggy likes murder only if he doesnt have to do it himself. unrealistic tbh #op spoilers

lover, don't touch me // leave, i am a danger to you // but ooh, i hunger for you

#this is leona's vampire lover audra #i guess you could say the first time they met was when audra nearly killed her in a blood lust because she hadnt fed in so long #idk how to describe it well but audra suddenly stopped devouring her when leona looked at her with no fear in her eyes #but looked at audra like she was something to worship #she whispered that audra was so beautiful even as her own blood was splattered between them and staining her lips #leona had never seen someone or something so perfect and powerful #power that she wanted and knew exactly how to get when audra whimpered over the slightest bit of praise #i never talk about them but i am CONSTANTLY thinking about them <3 #some fun little facts is leona killed her husband in cold blood because he was pitiful and boring #she married the first person to show any interest in her just to get away from her family #he would have been a perfectly good husband for anyone else #but the best part of their marriage was when she stabbed him in the stomach 47 times and felt his blood splatter against her skin #for audra OBVIOUSLY had to make another oc who would do anything to be loved even if it means destroying herself #audra was turned very suddenly and without any guidance #she murdered her lover without even realizing it she opened her eyes to find them splattered across every surface of the room #because of that shes done everything she can to protect herself from others even if it means starving herself of blood #until she goes into a frenzy #leona is the first person she has ever willingly fed off of #idk if willingly is the right word since leona practically begs her to do it #i really want to remake leona now......... #i like how leona looks but i want her to match audra better #mysims #the sims 4 #simblr #sims 4 screenshots #sims 4 cas #ts4 cas #sims 4 edit #ts4

“Her breasts are rather spectacular, aren’t they? Delicious as ripe apples.”

Feyre: Tamlin doesn't care about me! He just wants a trophy wife!!!! Rhysand actually cares about me!!! Meanwhile, Rhysand in front of another High Lord:

#i am disgusted #how tf do people like him #forget good person #he's not even a good love INTEREST #murder him #anti rhysand #anti feysand #pro tamlin #tamlin #anti acomaf

Another cool trick of Tamsyn Muir’s POV wizardy is that we all read Nona’s POV of Crown “gives great hugs wears pants with pockets has lovely hair!” and completely forgot that Crown is actually fucking terrifying.

Babygirl went from being the prisoner of a terrorist group to holding rank within said terrorist group, ordering people around, fronting crucial missions, being trusted with explosive intelligence — all in less than a year and a half. She has Done Some Shit.

Remember when Pyrrha tells Palamedes she’d need five years to prepare him to resist Blood of Eden torture methods? These are the people Corona joined. They love her, they embraced her, she’s thriving. She has fully crossed the moral event horizon and I love that for her.

#i LOVE this for her. blow shit up do crimes ride your righteous cause to the mass graves #ntn is actually very good at showing that there is a big side of moral fuckedup to the BoE gang. but they're funny so we forget about it #it's GREAT writing but also i do want and need corona to be murderous on main. it'd be hot :) #coronabeth #ntn #tlt #blood of eden

i love how unfatherly crowley and aziraphale both are when it comes down to it. sure aziraphale is more than willing to give the young people in his life help and advice and be their friend but he and crowley spent six years (eleven in the book) practically raising a kid (you just know his parents weren't around that often) and by the end they didn't even like him. crowley even suggested they just fucking kill him. he turned three kids into lizards for annoying him right after he destroyed their house. like it was that or kill them obviously but he did NOT hesitate with the newts. that's so funny to me. they're just inherently disinclined to parenthood. we need more characters like them actually

#good omens #i think if aziraphale HAD to take care of a baby no choice he would give them some cocoa #and play mozart for them and just kind of let them do their thing in the bookshop. away from the books of course. #like he would make sure they were safe and sheltered and he would be kind to them #but it would really show that he was just imitating fathers he had seen in books #crowley was not meant to raise children. he's a wine aunt plain and simple. he'd love to be called 'auntie crowley' #but he has no friends with kids so he has to be content with his brief stint as nanny. #the demon put a basket with a baby in it in the backseat of his car untethered and let it slide around #from side to side while he drove dangerously. canonically that is something he did #it's also my headcanon that he has some complicated feelings about parenthood and family roles #yknow. when you're technically one of 'god's children' but she cast you and so many of your siblings down to hell for asking questions #when the closest thing you have to a mother made you murder innocent children for a bet. #it can make you hesitant about that sort of thing!
