#i think i’ve seen you before

[pomegranatet3a]

i have a strange feeling

that i’ve known you forever

that i’ve said your names

a trillion times

in different dialects,

in the different accents,

in the different universes…

either way it all comes out the same,

with the same rise of my lips

after the same breathy laughter

and the same soft gaze

i found out a long time ago

that we’re twin flames

i think that counts for something

cause you burn so bright, so warm,

and i’ll feel your gaze, your touch, your laugh send atoms ricocheting through my body

till i feel the warmth of your flame

all through my soul

and i have this strange feeling

you’ve touched my hand like that

in a trillion different lifetimes

and i think you’ve kissed me like i imagine, just like that, in a trillion more

is it too early to know? because i have this strange feeling, this strange bubbling that occurs

when i see your smile,

think of your eyes,

think of the way my names sounds on your lips,

so yes, i have a gut feeling you could say,

a feeling that i’ve seen you before

when i first started this blog i got an anon saying that i shouldn’t tag jensen in my finds because it was unfair to embarrass him.

anyway, i wonder if that anon came from one of the twitter people who repost my finds without credit and get 20k views on “never before seen” pictures.

#if you’ve been here since the start you know that credit isn’t normally something i stress over #cause i didn’t photograph the stuff and it’s not art that i’ve lovingly crafted #BUT it does irritate me a bit when it’s something that i spent stupid amounts of time and energy and often money to find #do i need credit no but does it annoy me when someone writes that it’s a never been seen before picture and it’s something i dug up #yeah it does when i’m feeling pissy #1. well these are in national newspapers so technically they’ve been seen before by a large number of people #2. if you’re that up to date on the extant young jensen photos to know that it’s newly unearthed did you think maybe someone #did the work to find it? #i don’t care if you’re just sharing photos casually but a full time jensen account just hits different #ps i only care about this when i’m in a bad mood so i’ll go back to not caring and enjoying making shit available to everyone

the gorgug-porter conversation is interesting to me because like. yea for the overwhelming majority of the conversation porter’s being shitty & trying to fit gorgug into a box that gorgug just does not fit into by trying to make gorgug’s relationship with his rage more focused on the aggression aspect of it. but then there’s also this specific thing that brennan brought up again in the ap, which is that gorgug’s relationship with his rage is wholly “this is a tool i use to protect my friends.” which isn’t a bad thing! but that’s his Whole relationship with it, & gorgug seems to place next to no value on his rage in relationship to himself. which is problematic, because it’s first & foremost his rage.

being raised in a household with a sort of toxic positivity largely meant that, whether or not it was his parents’ intention, gorgug internalized the message that more traditionally “negative” emotions such as anger are the wrong response to something. part of the reason he prioritizes his artificing is probably because it’s “fixing” things. in comparison to being a barbarian, which gorgug associates with “breaking” things. good vs. bad behavior, in his eyes.

it’s a totally unacceptable bar to measure a 16 y/o by, but i do think part of porter’s reasoning for not letting gorgug multiclass is him recognizing that gorgug generally does not value anger as a valid emotional response to something, at the very least for himself. & that directly conflicts with what being a barbarian is, because whether you like it or not, that rage is what fuels you. but again, barring a kid from pursuing something they deeply care about in part (not entirely, porter has a lot of more bullshit reasons) because of their fundamental values & world outlook is crazy.

so yes, 98% of porter’s reasoning is pretty shitty, immature, rife with a toxic view that there’s only one proper way to access rage, & generally not a good thing to do as a teacher, but also within that reasoning is the 2% of ‘there is a fundamental part of yourself that you only value if you can use it to take care of other people & you need to accept that as something that can take care of you, too.’ but that’s something to discuss with a therapist or a guidance counselor, not something that should hugely impact gorgug’s academic future.

#gorgug thistlespring #fantasy high #dimension 20 #fhjy #fhjy spoilers #btw these r just my personal opinions u r 100% free to disagree #gorgug & his rage interest me so deeply because of how deeply that rage existing seems to be against gorgug’s own will #like mechanically classes are choices & you can switch stuff around any time. but gorgug as a barbarian always felt like an unwilling choice #like that 14 y/o kid did not want to have rage. & that really interests me. #i’ve seen people before be like ‘what if gorgug dropped barbarian & went full srtificer’ but i feel like that simply can’t happen?? #mechanically yea sure but it always felt like a core part of gorgug that the rage will always be there & it’s a matter of how you channel it #idk. dnd classes narratively being treated as ‘you can not lose this part of you’ even though you technically can #gorgug could be lvl 19 artificer & he’d still have 1 level of barbarian. because that is part of who he is. #btw i don’t think porter truly cares about gorgug valuing his rage only as a way to be a human shield #i think porter just sees that as ‘wrong’ but like. not as in ‘you need to take care of yourself’ & more ‘you aren’t conforming’ #he thinks it’s wrong for the wrong reasons. the nastier ‘this is how you should be’ reasons #ppl being like ‘we r being too hard on porter. it’s an 150% courseload gorgug will be overwhelmed’ i think r missing the point bc like. #that is 100% a valid reason to not approve gorgug for multiclassing! but that’s also 100% not the reason porter rejected him. #that whole interaction was basically porter shoving his percieved version of conformity down gorgug’s throat. was v neurodivergent kid coded #no hate to anyone saying that last point btw these r all just opinions #thinking about last ep wilma & digby being like ‘you’re a great barbarian. you’re so great at it. but look at what you made!!!’ like. #they would never mean it like that. but when you only understand half of your son he is going to prioritize the half you do.

HOLY. SHIT.

I don’t even wanna separate these?? TAKE THE WHOLE SHEET I’M SO PROUD OF IT WHAT????

I was playing around with expressions and OMG, I think I unlocked something???

It was mostly from yesterday’s post, I liked the way I drew Pizza Head so I decided to try drawing him again (since it’s been a while) AND GOD I LOVE THESE‼️‼️‼️ Seriously started out rough but then I just kind rolled with it! I like it! I like it a lot‼️ 😆😆

Also since I drew Brick yesterday as well, I decided to change the way I draw him, just a bit 🤏

Today was so fun AAAHHH!!!! 💞💞💞💞💞💞

#Pizza Tower #Looking at these so proud 😌😌 #I was on the coach for what- 3 hours? It was worth it- 💀 #I think the way I’ll draw Brick for now on is what he looks like in game but the legs look just a TINY bit like baggy pants #Like have you ever seen animated animals have those legs that look baggy and the feet underneath #I’ve seen it somewhere I know I have but I don’t have a good example…Still I tried to make it look sorta like that- #And I like it! I think he’s looks adorable!! 😄😄💕💕 #For Pizza Head I wanted to give more life in his expressions and poses #I think I did it well enough before hand but I want to express MORE of it #Like the better parts of it- Him looking smug him looking angry him looking annoyed etc #I like the one I colored and the one where he’s singing to himself- THAT one I had fun with he looks great 😂 #I also like the one where he’s doing a raspberry #I did that one without a sketch!! #I’m basically trying to focus more on the expressions I think. I had the most fun with them and that’s the thing that made me realize I #need to put more life into him. He needs to be flexible #Sorry if I rambled to much- 😅 Just spilling my ideas. Hope you don’t mind 😂 #Doodles #Pizza Head #Brick #Gustavo #Gustavo and Brick

I’m sorry but I’ll never not be hung up on sparrow naming his children HERO and NORMAL. that’s fucking unhinged.

like hero is one thing. she’s the first. but if I were any of the other dads and sparrow told me he named his second kid normal, I would contemplate murder I think

Explaining the differences between FMA (2003) and FMAB cause why not

with no explicit spoilers for events, storylines, characters, etc.

Why are they different?

FMA 03 and the manga were coming out at the same time and FMA 03 was in danger of catching up to the manga. When this happens animes create filler to put some distance between the manga and anime but the FMA production team basically went Nah, imma do my own thing.

Which is exactly what they did bc instead of adding fillers they just straight up deviated from the manga.

This is why both animes while sharing the same cast and world, are so different.

How are they different?

To summarize these differences:

FMA 03 is a lot darker than FMAB

FMA 03 expanded on a lot of scenes, characters, arcs, and storylines

FMA 03 added characters, arcs, and storylines that weren’t in the manga

And FMA 03, you know, changed shit.

With the most notable being, the ending.

FMA 03's last episode isn't the conclusion. The 2005 movie Conqueror of Shamballa is

FMA 03 is DARK

I know I mentioned that FMA 03 is dark but holy fuck it’s a lot darker. To the point where if you asked someone the differences between FMA 03 and FMAB it’ll be the first thing they mention after the ending.

FMA 03 is a pretty dark anime don’t get me wrong but part of the reason why FMA 03 is seen as so dark is because in comparison FMAB is a lot more lighthearted. Now don’t get me wrong FMAB doesn’t shy away from its dark themes but FMA 03 not only embraces it but it delves deeper into them.

FMAB also has these comic relief moments to lighten the mood that FMA 03 just doesn’t have. FMAB is a surprisingly lighthearted anime, especially considering what it’s about.

How is FMAB's adaptation different?

FMAB, unlike FMA 03, stuck to the source material. It’s considered to be a completely faithful adaptation, which isn’t entirely correct.

FMAB was made with the thought that the viewers were fans of FMA 03, and were already familiar with the world and characters.

That’s why FMAB’s first episode feels like a recap and lore dump because that’s exactly what it is. Its purpose was to refresh the older fans' memories and reintroduce them to the world and characters.

This is also why FMAB feels so fast-paced for the first 15ish episodes. It’s bc they’re trying to get past the material they already adapted to get to the content that was never animated.

Though doing this means that FMAB just completely cut things out or trimmed them down.

For example, the Mining Town never got a proper adaptation in FMAB and they completely cut out the Train Battle but both of these were properly adapted in FMA 03.

That’s why FMAB tends to throw people off when Yoki appears later in the anime. The cast acts familiar with him but that part of the story just wasn’t adapted so viewers didn’t even know he existed until then.

So yeah, FMAB did stick to the manga, I just wouldn’t call it completely faithful.

I think that about sums up the differences without going too deep into it. If I forgot something or if you have any questions please let me know.

#when i say #the ending is different i mean it #actually now that i think about it #some people will probably mention that fma 03 is darker before they mention the ending #like the majority of complaints i’ve seen about fmab is that it’s too lighthearted so take that as you will #i tried to make this post as subjective as possible and i hope i did a good job at that #edward elric #alphonse elric #fullmetal alchemist brotherhood #fullmetal alchemist #fma 2003 #fma #fmab #fma brotherhood #fma 03 #fma conqueror of shamballa #conqueror of shamballa #hiromu arakawa #concha posts

Imo Jason is “irredeemable” by default because I don’t see what he needs redemption from.

#I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before but joining this fandom made me fucking hate the word ‘redemption’ #no person I’ve seen who is in love with the concept knows the who what where when why or how it should work in a story #apparently it isn’t just themes and tropes anymore people don’t understand the proper use of the word ‘villain’ #kelseethe #also hilarious: Jason should recieve sensitivity training HR style from Bruce ‘I’m the government and children are my cronies’ wayne #if Jasons headstrong/‘answers to no one’ attitude towards vigilantism is what makes people think he's villainous #I hate to be a broken record but the baddie you’re describing is Bruce #nobody thinks he’s a villain for only trusting in his own methods/self and repeatedly isolating himself #and on top of that gaslighting and hurting people around him in attempts to do what HE **thinks** is the right thing #you people always thought *him* heroic not problematic for all these traits #the only difference is Jason isn’t psychologically abusive & controlling #yet he’s still the bad guy just cause he liberally kills folks in the crime business. #l'd argue goth ham war is the b*tman story to remind you of everything that makes Bruce authentically himself #Idk how to tell you that Bruce mentally compromising/crippling his son in a twisted attempt to ‘save him from himself’ #is perfectly in line with slitting the same son’s throat because he couldn’t stand to see him avenge his own killer #and yk what a redemption arc could be interesting for someone like Bruce #because he rarely questions or doubts his choices esp wrt Jason. no matter how morally dubious they may be #I think it would be quite fun to witness his extremely restricted worldview be challenged/shattered he deserves that humbling experience

Harry can be seen in the top left here, behind the white wall

On 17 May 2015 one direction, Taylor and Calvin Harris attended the Billboard Music Awards. Harry smiled when he first saw Taylor, who arrived with her squad of friends rather than Calvin. You can see Harry look up and smile and hear the press calling “Taylor” in this interview which harry cuts short so they can talk to Taylor.

Inside she was seated with Calvin and hugged, kissed and was overt when she won throughout the night in the front row. Harry looked incredibly uncomfortable and did not look forward or speak when 1D accepted awards.

Harry left early and returned to LA, the rest of the band was pictured at an after party with Ed, Taylor and Calvin. Austin Swift shared that photo of 1D with Calvin and Taylor, it's wild that Harris Reed liked it, I would love to know the timeline for that!

This night is referred to in Woman, Him and Exile.

Harry and Taylor were not pictured together for another 6 years!

I don’t usually make posts like this, but I’ve been seeing a lot of anti-intellectual junk lately, and I really think we need to put the word “pretentious” up on a shelf until people learn what it actually means.

It doesn’t describe someone who likes artsy-fartsy deep meaning media. People who are pretentious are fake. They’re posers trying to be sophisticated and unique, not like other girls. They pretend to only like stuff they think will make them sound cool when they talk about it. They want to act like they know something you don’t, and they want attention for it.

By definition, if you genuinely enjoy something, you can’t be pretentious. If it resonates with you, and you analyze it, and you don’t care what people think, that’s the polar opposite, actually. If you love obscure experimental prog music, if you watch underground high concept indie films through English teacher eyes, if you spend hours in a modern art museum reading each piece as a vessel for storytelling, if your backpack’s full of poetry books that inspire you, if you play underrated games that were someone’s passion project, if you have an interest in studying the classics or the masters, you are not pretentious.

Of course, some people just don’t like some stuff, and that’s fine, but that’s not what this is about. Don’t let anti-intellectuals shame you for enjoying things just because your interests are inaccessible to them, because they refuse to be brave and put effort into critical thinking. You’re not stuck up for refusing to overlook the craft of artists.

#anti intellectualism #media #movies #books #music #critical thinking #my friend who primarily listens to one very popular band once said that people who listen to obscure music are annoying and pretentious #which rubbed me the wrong way because 1 she knows that I listen to obscure music and 2 it’s such a cowardly consumerist take. anyone can #make music and hey a lot of the people who do make GOOD music. and this goes for all *obscure* media #this post was mostly inspired by people talking about Barbie and those anti pick me girls like the pick nobody girls who insist thinking is #for boys and having fun with an empty brain is for girls. Greta gerwig is an artist. I haven’t seen the movie yet but I know it has a deeper #message than haha cute pink! I’ve seen the summaries about the true meaning. the pinkness and popularity doesn’t negate the narritive. #though in the notes I saw a lot of tumblristas comunistas shitting on the film for being one big ad that people *fell for* which tbh is #tbh almost as anti-intellectual. don’t get me wrong they milked this film to sell hella shit but I don’t believe kids who play with dolls #are the target audience as these people claim. Barbie is a culturally iconic symbol almost archetypical of societal expectations for women #you say barbie people think unblinking perfect plastic pink girly. reminds me of the poem The Last Mojave Indian Barbie. yeah yeah you all #hate brands but this one carries undeniable significance and makes for a powerful literary device. it’s been used many times before #sorry for writing a tag essay about a film I haven’t even seen but I’m tired of internet people focusing so much on proving others wrong #that they end up oversimplifying everything just as much as the other person. god I saw people doing this to Nimona saying transphobes were #looking too deep into her character and they’re reactionary clowns for making that jump. like for once the transphobes are right. she is #trans. it’s a queer story. and irl the first people who notice queerness are the bigots who can tell you’re different. sick owns telling #them the story’s not that deep is harmful and it’s like they’re ignoring the real message on purpose. okay enough rambling hehe! thanks #barbie #nimona

Don’t mind me, just thinking about how in spite of Billy having a tough bad boy image, he’s almost constantly on the verge of tears. Like, I’m talking almost every scene in season three and quite a few in season two. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a male character be both so angry and so sad on screen before. Huge kudos to Dacre’s acting, obviously. It’s surprising how easily he cries, considering that Neil would have definitely seen crying as a sign of weakness.

#I’m just rambling and thinking angsty thoughts #Billy breaks down in front of Joyce one day and she immediately hugs him #I like to think that Joyce would see right through his act #and she just wraps him in the tightest hug #and he FREEZES because he’s not used to any sort of positive affection #not without the other person having something to gain #I think she would see the signs and want to help him #“you know my door is always open sweetie’’ #and he doesn’t understand why she would do this for him #because nice things don’t just HAPPEN to billy hargrove #and she just says “I’ve seen it before’’ #billy hargrove #stranger things #joyce byers #my posts
