This post is something that can actually be so personal and no I am not done talking about it. There's a whole concept behind it and the fucking hair ties are just one way of channeling it but oh boy is it a good one. This works so well with the hair braiding too and i cannot think about it to much or i will spontaneously combust, but I had to so I hope you enjoy the result of it.
-
Joel has a hair tie on his wrist because Ellie forgets to take a spare and when the first one breaks or she loses it somehow, he can offer it to her before her hair becomes an annoyance.
He has one because she gives it to him sometimes when they're laying on the couch and her ponytail makes resting her head on a pillow or against his chest uncomfortable. At times she also takes it out simply because her scalp is especially sensitive that day and the constant pull becomes painful after a while. There's always another one in his jacket pocket, too, so when Ellie asks him for braids afterward or allows him to do her hair he isn't limited to simpler styles.
It starts with hair ties in Jackson but there are months of different acts preceding it.
Joel carried whatever he could for her, taking more than necessary sometimes because the slim line of her shoulders being weighed down by her backpack made his heart ache even when he couldn't admit it to himself back then, not at first at least. There are water bottles, sweatshirts she cannot quite fit into hers that day, all of their food, whatever first aid materials he can find, even a spare bar of soap.
Then he starts carrying hair ties once they get to Jackson and suddenly he needs to keep a brush on him, too, and with the brush comes a comb and with the comb comes a hat and with the hat comes a homemade creme he traded for since her hands are uncomfortably dry sometimes (she never said so but he knows her), and after that what started as a small piece of twisted fabric turns into him carry a bag around that is filled with everything his brain thinks Ellie might require at some point. Sure, maybe he is being a little bit overprotective and maybe Tommy jokes about getting him a purse several times, but he can offer her sunscreen and a bottle of water during summer, he gives her gloves and a scarf in winter when she doesn't remember to put them on before leaving, there's always one of her books in a side pocket, too, and as soon as he finds her a new one, her Walkman gets an especially safe place in his bag.
And yes, he fusses over her a little bit too much, maybe even to the point of being smothering sometimes (she always tells him to back off when that happens and he does without complaint), but Ellie grew up utterly alone and without someone to look after her for fourteen years, she deserves to know what it is like to be cared about by someone. Whatever she asks for, whatever she needs, he gives it to her even when she could walk home and come back with the thing in question in less than ten minutes. There's always a snack, a spare sweatshirt in case she gets cold, space for the one she takes off when she gets too warm, a small sketchbook and a pencil both as a distraction and so she can draw whenever she feels like it.
No one pays any attention to it, and while Tommy softly teases him about it from time to time, the smile that blooms on Ellie's face when he quietly gives her something she needs based on nothing but hardwired instincts before the words leave her mouth tells him everything he needs to know.
Joel might not be good with words, but he continues to carry a bag and hands her little pieces of his love time and time again, hoping she can put the puzzle together, hoping she knows.
Ellie does the same, hoping Joel notices it, hoping he knows what it means, that with every time she tells him to rest, every cup of coffee on his nightstand, every night spent in his bed when she wakes to the mere suggestion of a nightmare and brushes them away before they can settle so she can put herself in their place instead, every trashy action movie she borrows from the library for their weekly movie night, every handmade guitar pick she gifts him, every single gesture she does not have to do but does regardless because she wants to, she is saying I love you, too.
They notice, they care, they willing hand over carefully chosen parts of themselves and the puzzle they piece together is one and the same, because paying attention to things is how they show love and it is oh so easy when there is nothing to look at but each other.

terminally online exclusionists when they find out that bi ppl and pan ppl and ace ppl and lesbians and gay men and trans ppl and aro ppl and nonbinary ppl irl are all hanging out and having fun and being friends and dating each other and walking together at pride instead of getting into pointless discourse and ripping each other apart over shit like flags and identities
Tumblr media
#neela speaks#//#gif#flashing lights#sorta....#ANYWAY. this is mostly abt aphobia/nbyphobia/panphobia#but like. specifically a weird wave of pan antagonism ive seen as of late that disguises itself as bi activism?#like. yes. bi ppl have a long history. bi doesnt mean 'oh just men and women'. bisexuality is trans/nb inclusive and has always been#read the bisexual manifesto guys. come on#BUT ALSO. ALSO. ill see a post like that & go 'yes! good! i agree' and then when i look at op's blog#they just say some RANCID stuff abt pan ppl! and its usually just repackaged biphobia/aphobia/nbyphobia LOL#and like. it disheartens me. like arent you guys cousins???#the way i see it. like. idk. blue is a colour right? teal is a shade of blue but it's not the same as blue#and insisting that 'oh blue is harmfullll use teal it's less problematic uwu' is dumb#BUT ALSO. saying 'all teal is inherently harmful and erases blue and anything 'teal' is actually blue. i am very intelligent'? ALSO uncool#but sometimes it just comes off as 'how can i make it look Progressive(tm) to hate on other members of the lgbtq community'#like. congrats! youve taken genuinely good points and weaponized them against your own people. want a fucking gold star 4 that#just UUUUUGGUGGH it feels like. ace 'discourse' all over again. good lird#remember when ppl would advertise themselves as 'proudly aphobic' and say that asexuality was erasing gay ppl and inherently homophobic? 😬#idk. uhhh ace exclus/pan exclus/nby exclus dont touch this post#and this post isnt abt b1 lesb1ans either. isnt the whole point of lesbians. yknow. Not being attracted to men#and not abt stuff like 'oh im a binary trans man but i can still be a lesbian uwu' like you Do realize thats a Literal t*rf talking point#also this isnt about 'transandrophobia' or whatever reactionary transmisogynistic stuff is just as terminally online-#-as the exclusionism. like Gah go talk to some lgbtq ppl instead of getting into reactionary online Disk Horse#might turn off reblogs/comments at a point. idk

I am still in my feelings about that "I didn't transition to look like Elliot Page: I wanted to look like Hank Hill" thing because like?? Very fucking rude to Elliot Page first of all?? What the fuck is the subtext here? That he doesn't look enough like a "real" man and is some kind of dilettante who we shouldn't take seriously until he mans up, or something?
Also like... as far as I know Page is not attracted to men, but it feels vaguely homophobic? "I want to be a Normal Straight Man who looks like a Regular Guy not a fucking [slur redacted]" Like fuck off? And it had so many notes! How is policing the gender presentation of other transmasc people being so roundly fucking applauded, oh my god.

JJK Uraume and Reincarnation. [217 Spoilers]
So Uraume has quickly become one of my favorite awful creatures due to his recent appearances. Seriously we've gotten more personality for him in the past 5 chapters than the whole of JJK. But that's aside the general point. Now a line in 217 by Yorozu got me thinking.
Tumblr media
"Has Uraume incarnated as well?" The obvious reason is because Yorozu want him to be the chef at her wedding with Sukuna's.. Erm... Corpse? It's phrased weird by Sukuna so whatever. It's not important here. The key thing to keep in mind is that Yorozu doesn't know if Uraume is even alive. This is the same case of Sukuna all the way back in Chapter 116. This is right after Sukuna trashes Jogo.
Tumblr media
Sukuna pretty clearly had no clue Uraume was alive before now. So what does this mean? It's possible that Uraume died in the past previous to Sukuna and Yorozu so they had assumed he was just fully dead. Or Uraume outlived them both and they assumed he died of old age. The first one is the one I want to focus on here. But I'll quickly dissuade the idea of of Uraume being over a thousand raw years old. See the oldest characters we see in the series through pure age are Kenjaku and Tengen. Both of which sustained their prolonged life through 'stealing' the lifespans of other people. Kenjaku body hopped Tengen absorbed people. So then why would Uraume be the exception to this unwritten rule? It's possible his ice technique lets him freeze himself in time in a way but I find that less likely. I think the more likely is the first possibility. Uraume died sometime in the past and was reincarnated into a new body by Kenjaku. It explains why he was hanging around with Kenjaku at the start of the series.
Tumblr media
Chapter 53 And it explains why he put up with Kenjaku for so long. As well as stick with him up until Shibuya. It's clear Uraume doesn't like Kenjaku very much as their interactions while comical it's pretty evident that Uraume: Finds him really fucking annoying.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This isn't just how Uraume is since we see him get all chummy with Sukuna
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So Uraume being reincarnated by Kenjaku around the time of the beginning of JJK would align with all these facts and ideas. So what's the point of all this? Just to state that Uraume is reincarnated? Yes, But actually there's a bit more. As we see with Reincarnations and Vessels as a whole, Cursed Techniques are imprinted on the body. Kenjaku can use the cursed techniques of the people he previously body snatched. Sukuna can use Megumi's Ten Shadows. It's a basic rule that if the host has a technique the reincarnated person should have the ability to use it. So then Uraume should logically have the potential to use 2 techniques. Unless he was reincarnated into some random person like everyone in the culling games was, or the original body's technique was Ice and he's just been rolling with it. If it's either of those then the whole idea of a second technique is moot. Keep an eye out because Uraume is the biggest wild card of the big bad 3.

as a russian who doesn't talk to russian people online what the shit is happening there hello
look man i myself have put in the effort to Not talk to online russians for like (checks hand) 7 or so years (of course i’ve met some really great ones but this isn’t about them and they probably know it) but i’m sure the community didn’t change much. actually from the glimpses i see it seems to have gotten worse. don’t even get me startedddddd man
#Like okay first we have the misogynist dudebros. not a category exclusive to online russians but#there are so many it’s fucking crazy. homophobic to hell and back and Will hate on you for no reason#alpha male type mfs who hate women but will still harass them because of course they will#the second category of course is weird unironic fujoshis who are also usually proshippers#and they are either 12 (forgivable) or 25 and the thing is you can NEVER tell. But it’s kind of fucked how#acceptable it is to just straight up fetishize gay men (hell probably not only them) in online russian communities#and listen to me. the secret third category is that there is no third category. Both of these categories are racist#deer was right i have never seen a community more racist or xenophobic than fucking online russians#you draw a character one shade darker than their usual skintone and suddenly you got annoying as fuck russians in your comments going#BRO BURNT IN THE SUNNN 🤣🤣🤣 ENGLISH FANDOM LOOK WHAT YOU’VE DONE !!! <- in recent times they have taken to blaming the english fandom for#‘wokefying’ their sacred online russian spaces. Of course we can only be woke enough to fetishize gay men. god forbid black people exist#now the actual third category is the online russian tеrf/radfеm community. it seems recent to me but also as i said i have not really#interacted with russian comminity as a whole for a long while. But yea anyways they’re crazy i dont think i have to explain this one#but they’re somehow more evil and miserable than the ones you’re used to#another recent one is the russian twitterians … i’ve only seen glimpses of them as well as i dont use twitter#but you will not believe the shit these mfs try to pull. They try to get you to stop swearing at all bc they find a way to make every#russian swear word offensive. AND they speak fucking … englussian. rusglish. Half of their sentences are just english words written in#russian letters. all the same buzzwords english speaking twitter users like to say!#if you’ve never seen a russian talk about feminization or gatekeeping or being woke or yadda yadda. Well i have#it’s bad. they’re just very very terminally online#and don’t worry the last two categories will also always be racist/xenophobic even if the last one tries to seem Progressive#don’t know if i missed anytning but those are just the Specific Types of annoying asf online russians that i have noticed and have been#observing from a safe distance like a scientist#my point is keep not talking to russian people#cramswering#edit: I FORGOT BUT DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON HOW ONLINE RUSSIANS TREAT TRANS PEOPLE#YOU CANNOT IMAGINE THE WAY THEY REACT TO TRANS HEADCANONS IT’S LIKE THE END OF THE WORLD TO THEM. OR TRANS CHARACTERS#OR GOD FORBID ACTUAL REAL LIFE TRANS PEOPLE. it’s actually quite incredible how bigoted online russians are

The fact that so many people are willing to defend dumb ass choices made by male characters are also trashing female characters for making the same kind of choices is very telling

Strong choice for the Voyager writers to make TNG-Q a misogynistic creep. It didn’t pay off at all and actively made me hate his character but hey, it was strong.
#His comment about Chakotay's tattoo was also kind of racist so that's -chefs kiss- awful#I literally would have murdered VOY-Q myself just to spite TNG-Q#Absolutely no moral dillema in this episode for me sorry Janeway - let the man die he's lived literally since the universe was created#TNG-Q is giving such strong 'I'm not gay bc I love men - I'm gay bc I hate women. We're not the same :)' vibes#Tuvok got promoted to 'ship lawyer' because he's somewhat familiar with asylum practices and approves of suicide ok I love this episode#I really do like this episode even though I hate TNG-Q so much#I really can't believe people ship him and Janeway together...what's going on....#It really did have to be Janeway v Tuvok on this one for reasons I can't describe right now but it's so right#Tuvok's 'I'm as curious as you are Captain' ...the crux of it#this moral dilemma is SO flimsy to me HEHEHE there was a TINGE of maybe SOMETHING when TNG-Q said that since Q are immortal one dying could#have disasterous consequences but then RIGHT AFTER Tuvok was like 'Right. But Don't You Execute People?' and the answer is YES!???#HEHEHE WHA T!?? WHY DIDN'T YOU WRITE THAT THEY ALSO JUST GET IMPRISONED FOREVER????#Thi s whole court is out of order....#YEAAH HEHE I fucking LOVE when star trek says 'you know this history? it was actually aliens. yeaaah aliens did that. v_v'#SNRKEHEH THE TERRIBLE PHOTOSHOP JOB ON RIKER'S P HOTO#Janeway's God Complex on full display in this episode and I love it even as I disagree with her 1000% <3#Tuvok agreeing with her is also why they work so well together <3 I am also disagreeing with him 1000% <3 peace & love#Q. You are NOT blushing. Your lips are GRAY. You are a CORPSE.#the surrealist symbolism of the Q continum ... VERY good I LOVE surrealist symbolism ~!!!!!#OH GOOD TNG-Q graduated from misogynist to creepily insistent harasser.....#'I never did anything like that for Picard' we GET it writers we get it SO much that you DON'T want Q to be GAY#you' re leaning TOO FAR in the other direction he's LITERALLY the worst guy in a gender studies class now#If TNG-Q tried to caress my cheek that man's losing a finger at LEAST. BYE.#So funny of VOY-Q to be like 'ok I'll think about it :)' and then immediately uber eats some poison#hilarious and a delight to the end VOY-Q -salutes him-#aaaand that's all for this#for all the TNG-Q lovers I'm so sorry for whatever they did to your man uhh I've only seen Voyager so sorry for the slander but please try#to see him through my eyes v_v#liveblogging

It's very interesting how anti-fujos will say that they want more wholesome content and content made by gay men and that wholesome stories made by gay men are the only true good representation, because there is a gay man who made a really popular wholesome comic and what they did to him was very telling...

you would be fucking lying if you said that women, including canonical love interests but especially women of color, don’t get pushed aside or demonized for big m/m ships (an example including something i personally ship: anyone who has ever been paired with eddie or buck!. other examples? those dudes from the witcher. st*r*k and the treatment of those fans towards malia and braeden.) and to take people talking about that as a slight against you personally preferring a m/m ship is weird as fuck. “people pair them up with other women all the time!!” no one said they didn’t??? the issue here is specifically when those women are demonized and written off and hated for being with those men. not that people prefer different ships. you’re either ignorant as hell or being deliberately obtuse. either way you sound stupid as hell
