I actually love glass onion being set deep in covid times but where's the post that was like . Glass Onion should have ended with benoit blanc getting home and testing positive for covid . I really think that would've tied the whole thing together

wait does the thing that some people think totk (or the stuff in the past) takes place before all other zelda games really just come from rauru and sonia founding hyrule??
hyrules been newly founded and switched places multiple times tho, plus this is an entirely new ""timeline"" anyway
botw + totk are their own thing with lots of references to other games bc funney referenceeee really, i doubt there was supposed to be any kind of deeper connection
(lets ignore the fact that they made botw to be a sort of soft reset and connect it all back together and then made its sequel do time fuckery AGAIN messing it all up again considering the continuity problems with them both .... and causing people to think they have to cram totks past parts into the old timeline somehow)

Zutaras are really the original self-insert, "we understand the story soooooo much better than everybody else" girlies and they just never moved on
#anti zutara#no offense to anyone who ships it and follows me but I'm so over the shipping wars of this show that aired almost 20 years ago 😭#at some point you guys are gonna need to hang it up cause there's a sequel series and these people are married with children like...#we get it if you were Katara you would've chosen Zuko but guess what?! you aren't and need to stop projecting onto her#the pretending to care about Katara is what really gets me cause she's never even implied to have romantic feelings for him#or vice-versa + it ignores her anger towards him and how long it took her to forgive him + rightfully so#criticizing the writing for Kataang is one thing but turning around and shipping Zutara while doing so is crazy work#ship it if you want but please stop pretending it makes more sense when both Zuko and Katara have their own separate romances 😭#love how people have to age Aang down + infantilize him and erase Mai to make it work but sure it's the better option#stop erasing Katara's arc and development just to claim that Aang brings her down when she's been a bad-ass since season 1#reducing her arc to that ONE moment with Zuko and ignoring all of her other development just to prop up a ship is nasty#Katara isn't a reward for Aang and she sure as hell isn't one for Zuko stop belittling her like that#if y'all didn't watch ATLA when you were 12 and think Zuko was cute this ship wouldn't even exist#thinking about that post that said the writers /pandered to dudebros/ like we all weren't children the delusion is crazy sdfssdfsdfsd#also seeing AANG of all characters getting whacked for a ship...please get a life and stay away from him

With Indie Animation Day just having passed and a really meh-looking Megamind sequel on the horizon, I'd like to gently remind people of the power of ignorance.
(TL;DR in blue) Your attention is valuable. Like it or not, your attention alone is worth money. When you give a show or project your attention, you are supporting it. So if you're as disgruntled as I am knowing another amazing movie's timeline is about to be tarnished with a lazy sequel, please for the love of god, ignore it.
"Don't feed the troll" "They just want attention, ignore them." these are tales as old as time... But what we're dealing with in entertainment and animation today is much more insidious than attention-seeking randos online. We're dealing with attention-seeking multi-billion dollar companies.
We are living in the age of soulless nostalgia-bait and purposefully-infuriating content. They are putting this content out because it is MAKING THEM MONEY, and it is making them money because we are giving them attention! The most POWERFUL WEAPON you have to wield against them right now is your ignorance.
I know it's infuriating. I know. But the fact is: Just like a troll, every interaction you give this media feeds it, good or bad. Especially bad.
Talking about this movie is spreading the word for them. Posting about them gives them free advertising. Watching people review and dunk on them will push more people to review and talk about it. Even if you go online and say, "I hate this movie, it's gonna suck." that is STILL advertising for them!
Hate-watching is worth the same amount of money as love-watching. Remember what hate-watching did for projects like Velma?
Tumblr media
Don't let this new Megamind sequel or any dead-horse-beating project succeed financially just because we were too angry to stop talking about it. DON'T reward them for their half-assed cash-grabs with your ire. They don't deserve your fury.
I beg of you, don't hate-watch it when it comes out. Don't post about them. Don't take to Twitter and Tumblr flooding the #notmymegamind tag. Don't do their dirty work for them. Don't allow them rent-free space on your page or in your mind. Don't give this project the time of day. Ignore it. There is power in your ignorance, just as there is in your attention.
Give your attention to one of these independent animators instead. The media giants don't need it.
If we can all band together and ignore the media we don't like, they will no longer be profitable or a safe investment and they will eventually stop. But we have to agree to ignore it together.

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3
The five days Tyler's stolen my voice from me, I spend watching. The commons, group therapy. I visit my cave with my eyes open. Mills should get used to the cold. I've heard if it drops below 50 while your respiration is this depressed, you go to sleep and never wake up.
Valley of the Dogs.
An orderly with fresh bruises peppering his temple lets me take my walk in the same time Mills is carted around. This is how I must've looked for months. Glazed. Drooling. At this point they probably have to use elephant tranquilizers on me, the tolerance I've built.
God, his petty ass, we meet up for one on one and he says he has to give me some bad news.
No, it's not about Mills.
Tyler, whatever.
He is giving me the bad news, of the passing of one Marla Singer. Everyone seems to think this is bad news. Found dead in her apartment because she didn't pick up any Meals on Wheels for her neighbors for three weeks, and they worried about those little old ladies, up there all starving alone since their angel in black stopped showing up.
Her corpse was found, instead. I imagine it all waxy, tits rotted off just like she said, at some point you're so sick even the bacteria in your gut won't bother decomposing you. I imagine Marla's skin pulling back, fleeing, away from her eyes, her teeth, like a mummy. Dried out as all her collagen rots.
Paper clutched in her hand. A will, sort of hasty and half-assed.
Marla's many worldly possessions all fit on a hotel notepad.
Many other worthless things go to a small number of worthless people Marla has mentioned leaving behind in her life, and god says, Marla Singer has left me something.
That's the entire reason I get to know all of this.
If not, I would've never known.
The world could blow up, and you'd never know in here unless it was in someone's will to tell you.
Marla Singer left me her dildo.
Oh, Marla.
Addressed me in the will half the time as Tyler.
I wonder, did the cancer spread from her tits to her brain, like the cancer I didn't have. It's everywhere now. God says they're working out treatment. I wonder if it matters.
Without Tyler between us, I don't really know what connected me and Marla.
What kept her calling.
I liked her. Another psycho boyfriend in her stories. There will never be another, unless she's gone to Heaven, the real one, and they've got some sort of exchange program going on for her to have fun with.
I think Marla might deserve that. She deserved better than this.
I wonder if it was pills. There was no Tyler to save her, this time. No one to listen to her death rattle. I don't have the voice to ask.
I won't be getting her dildo, because you don't get possessions in a psych ward. It'll get dumped in some other landfill to persist for time immemorial with all the other plastic iconography of our stupid, stupid lives.
Released back out to pasture, I watch Mills. His wife was murdered. Murdered, you see, it's an action, and it's solvable. Mills solved it.
You can't solve the slow death. Not really.
I think about how empty Mills is.
Am I empty?
An unidentifiable amount of time ago, Marla called me again, and she told me all about what happens at the new support groups she goes to, since I ruined the old ones for her. They were willing to rally behind her for the whole blowing my brains out show, and she only would've had to wait them out for six months or so, but she decided to just find new ones. A new church, with new temptations like Living With Angels, a group for those caring for severe dementia patients, and Recovery Road: a program for those trying to rebuild their lives after a loved one blew them up. She said, when I got out, we could both go to that one, and I could talk about Tyler, and she could talk about me, and we could have fun getting kicked out together.
Marla was always talking about that. When I got out.
I wasn't ever hearing any of it.
Mills, they've let up on him, finally, you can see his eyeballs aren't floating with all they've juiced him up on. He's watching me, back.
I wonder if he knows about Marla.
Would Tyler care?
Tyler had said, don't call this love.
Does it need to be?
When I get my voice back, I bury my thoughts on the subject and Marla and everything in a relentless campaign to needle Mills until he looks like a voodoo doll in a shitty tourist trap.

Admittedly I don’t know much about Rae Sloane, but shouldn’t she be like smack dab in the middle of literally all the live action stuff that’s airing now?

I feel like being on Twitter or Tiktok or Insta would put me in an early grave. I just want to post about OCs and metallurgy and fandom. Even if I were The Geology Person over there, which would be fun, I'd probably have to Be More Cognizant of cultural stuff... I already feel bad enough for not reblogging a lot of important things that cross my dash... Idk... Tumblr is my place to escape from a lot of that. I like being aware, but I don't want to scroll back on my blog and be reminded.
(random metallurgy rant under the cut)
I want to remember shit like- omg, teflon is the coolest fucking thing. It's the most hydrophobic man-made material we have, which is why it coats our pans. But BUT because it's a H-F compound and so hydrophobic it can fuck up your system by BEING that hydrophobic. Remember that our blood is basically salt water? Yeah, so hydrophobic things in water don't WANT to be in water, so they'll cling to anything else. Which is why you can get fat buildup in your arteries: fatty acids are hydrophobic compounds. If one gets stuck, you gradually build up an accumulation.
Anyway, I think we should build gaseous copper flotation cells with hydrofluoric acid and teflon which will give us the best copper recovery in the history of the world and cause innumerable deaths and destruction.

My brother sent the IGN article about the Zelda movie to me today and I was like yeah I know. Doubt it’s gonna be good :( And he said “well hopefully it is! But if it’s not we can just laugh about it together”
I love him so much

The thing about any of the additional stranger things material is it's literally not canon. It's all just a cash grab. So I will be resolutely ignoring it 💜

Been replaying Pre-Sequal for the past few days (along with Pikmin 4) and decided to do post-BL3 refs for the Pre-Sequal vault hunters, or at least the ones still alive (yes Aurelia is still alive)
Also unrelated, I still need a name for this au. I'm thinking about calling it Siren's Songs but I'm still debating on that.
Athena
Her and Sprigs have been able to live well financially so Athena doesn't do as many odd jobs, but still does the occasional bounty. (better than selling kebobs)
She also works alongside Sprigs at her black market. (mainly to go after people who tried to scam them)
Claptrap
Starting to become worse for where, a lot of his new parts for repairs were from old Claptraps units.
Along with that he's starting to rust in some areas. (nothing but a little paint and some stickers would do the trick)
Has been reunited with his stair climbing wheel and became even more of an annoying menace.
Still refers to himself as General Claptrap.
Timothy
Still doesn't want to do anything involving that casino (or Jack in general) but Moxxi did offer him to work at her bar in Sanctuary lll.
Not as cowardly as before (like because of Jack's DNA) but still kinda pathetic.
(I kinda had fun with this design. Like I was trying to make him look like Jack's doppelganger but not Jack at the same time)
Him and Moxxi are still a thing. It was complicated at first but had gotten better once he started to not look like Jack.
Was finally able to get that bomb disarmed and removed. (thanks to Tannis and Zed)
Aurelia
What Borderlands 3 did to Aurelia should be a crime!!!!!! Like why?!?!?!?!?!?!
Acted as a spy for the Crimson Raiders so she could get intel from the C.O.V.
Troy still has a thing for her, but she's not interested and is creeped out by it. (it's gotten to the point where she straight up told him that she's a lesbian, not sugar coating what's so ever)
After the events of Pre-Sequal, Aurelia doesn't find hunting animals near extinction as fun as it used to be.
Her and Alistair's relationship is........ complicated, but they are starting to tolerate each other, so there's that.......
Still kind of a bitch, but it's mostly for show. (I mean in pre-sequal she says she's evil but even she has standards)
Has suffered frostbite on both fingers and toes, likely due to cryo usage.
Her design (especially the frostbite detail) were inspired by @wainwrightjakobshammerlock post-BL3 Aurelia design.

something something a lot of the lore being used in current star wars projects owes itself to rebels and yet the show and its storylines are constantly ignored or brushed aside........
