#oh no a natural disaster!

What a wild fucking day for Serizawa's anxiety

#from his perspective it's like: #okay having a normal one #oh no a natural disaster! #wait there are *multiple* natural disasters? #OH NO THE NATURAL DISASTER IS MY FRIEND #we'd better get--oh we're going *towards* it? #you want me to--okay okay this is fine #(this is not fine what the fuck Reigen) #okay no we absolutely cannot go any further--WHAT THE FUCK REIGEN??? #and then he just sits there like #welp. #my boss is definitely dead. #if my friend survives this he'll be traumatized for life and probably shut himself away forever #this is Not Great for my own personal trauma so i'm just gonna. #wait here. i guess. #*internal screaming* #and then everything suddenly STOPS and that's almost worse and then his PHONE RINGS #and it's Reigen who is somehow miraculously NOT dead #and he's just like 'Hiiiiiii Serizawa no I'm fine everything's fine :)))' #i would keel over on the spot tbh #mp100 #mp100 spoilers

theres a part in my fern textbook where it talks about fern 'spore banks' in the soil where fern spores land on the ground and instead of germinating get buried and can stay viable for several years and sometimes i think about it bc although they didnt elaborate on why this might be useful, if i was a fern-- a little guy who's survival strategy is notoriously to be the first to colonize any disturbed new places so i dont have to bother with any competition-- this would be a pretty sick deal.

like this is unconfirmed fern lore but like, if im a spore sittin several inches to feet underground and something happens thats bad enough to rip up the soil and expose me to sunlight and water again, its probably also bad enough to rip up all my competition and let me do whatever i want on a clean slate with all the nutrients i could wish for in the ruins of the ecosystem i was buried under. like, via a terrible natural disaster or landslide or something. and im already adapted to the environment because i came from a fern that was there the last time the land was ripped up and recolonized with ferns. rip to the other plants but im different lmaooo

#ferns #theres a photo in that textbook thats some young ferns hanging out in a little rock crevice surrounded by cooled magma #and it was taken like. six months after the local volcanic eruption that led to said magma. another thing i think about #ferns are so wild they really are just like. oh boy a natural disaster just for me ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

My gender is whatever the fuck The Archivist has got going on - just a weird, anxiety-ridden asexual disaster academic.

#its the annual TMA relisten #tma #the Magnus archives #jonathan sims #the archivist #I was at an academic conference recently and someone introduced themselves to me as a ‘disaster scholar’ #and I was about to say ‘oh mood same’ #before I realized he meant he was an academic who studies government response to natural disasters

Day 25 - Braid

written for @prongsfoot-microfic!

The minute Remus saw the braids in Sirius’ hair, he knew it would be a bad day.

If it was just one, or even two, then there wouldn’t be a need to resort to such dramatics but that there were…three, four, five—sheesh who hurt him—six, seven braids in total meant that, well. Either someone was about to die or James was about to combust. Sirius would be doing the killing, of course, because how dare anyone push James to such an edge but that didn’t make any it any better. If anything, it was worse. Remus resigned himself to clean-up duty and damage control for the rest of the week.

Sirius’ hair was like a Richter scale determining the seismic intensity of James’ emotions. Oh, two-three braids? Not that bad, could just be a regular day. Five? Yellow flag. Houston, we have a problem.

A six-seven pointer? Steer clear for there’s either thunderclouds brewing or dangerous levels of brooding going on.

But, anything eight or above? Immediate evacuation. The entire surrounding area is at risk of total annihilation. All of Sirius’ considerable capabilities would be geared towards managing James, leaving everyone else vulnerable.

So when Remus sees the seven braids, tied into an intricate updo, he immediately gathered his things and got up. Better to make his escape now.

But it’s the look on Sirius’ face that made his brisk walk turn into a near run as he tried to get away from the blast radius as quickly as possible.

He sighed in relief as a large explosion rocked the ground beneath his feet the moment he cleared the corner. Thank Merlin.

2 months until my birthday my 23rd year of life was kind of wild

#My grandpa passed away I forgot about that. #I got engaged briefly lmao it was while I was publishing Philophobia I remember trying to publish it all before the marriage just in case #Oh and got my first job #Natural disasters and flooding kept happening I live in a desert so it’s a big deal #Went through wild depressive episodes #Had my first crush #Wrote a long fic over 100k and finished it

[that-was-anticlimactic]

if you, as an author, create a minor character who is important to one of your primary characters, and then kill them off so the main character will be sad, know this: i hate you. i am biting you. i hope you get a hangnail and that the grocery store is out of your preferred plant milk.

#i got nothing against killing off characters! just let them have their own damn arc!! #or if you need a dead bestie(tm) *do it in flashback*. let them be a ghost! ghosting the narrative whips ass!!! #for the record this is in reference to an actual novel i am reading not a fanfic #not naming names but i am 300 pages into an 800pg book and they just axed two best friends a spouse and some girl no one liked all that muc #oh and someone's boyfriend too! #this was in three separate incidents! on different continents! it's not even like they all died in one natural disaster. #it's pretty good otherwise so i'll probably finish it but i am gonna stay mad about it

God I have so many thoughts about suzume,,

#I thought it was maybe like an 8/10 coming out of the theatre #bumped to a 9/10 on like analysis of themes and stuff and just generally appreciating the fact that they didn’t focus much on the romance #but oh my god??? my Japanese teacher gave some context on the themes and it just hits so much harder now #some post I saw said that this film is so intrinsically Japanese in the idea of living on a hostile land and yeah I truly did not realize it #my teacher showed us the image from the tohoku tsunami with the huge boat on top of the building #and the parallel frame from the movie’s afterlife area and god #it’s such a powerful and sad image to look at with how surreal it is and I would not have noticed it unless it was pointed out to me and I w #I wish I did have this context going into the movie because that would’ve made it hit so much harder #the way they emphasize ‘ittekimasu’ when leaving home and how this directly translates to ‘going and coming #with the intrinsic sort of meaning that they will return and yet the land is dangerous and hostile and sometimes doesn’t let you return!!!! #and the way the chant to close the doors ends with ‘I return them to you’ as a nod to these people who left and wished to return and never #could return in the end because of the danger and natural disaster…. #and this on top of the sort of idea of how kindness and human compassion is what carries one through trauma and grief #god it’s such a good movie

on this laptop is some old near art from hs/college and augh them...

#i can tell the person walking in front of Caleb was meant to be jerric bc the color of his lab coat is a super pale green #also honestly shout out to 2016 me for putting cord in a postal worker uniform SEVEN YEARS BEFORE I DECIDED TO MAKE RESTORATION #A DELIVERY/POSTAL SERVICE #GIANT BRAIN MOMENT FROM TEENAGE ME #i am however deducting points for not making Jerric fatter until a few years ago #also jerric was assigned a fursona at work he's actually a wolf jsyk #idk unrelated to the tag tangent but related to some of the art #veneer has always had a big theme (?) of like. the horrors of a corporation owning you #esp when you don't have a choice #jerric is a huge part of that in 2 ways #his implants are crestfall tech (that HE designed and THEY own) which they can just turn off at any time #(he's so lucky being the one who designed them because what abt the people who CAN'T PERFORM THEIR OWN MAINTENANCE) #and he needs that job to because of his daughter (like he literally sold his freedom to CF to ensure her safety n livelihood) #all of them were specially chosen and their families allowed entry to the bubble cities by basically selling themselves #to the corporation in order to ensure their families would be able to live safe and happy lives not constantly under threat of #mutated wildlife trampling their homes or the fear of corporate wars destroying their hometown (oh hey Julian when did you get he-) or #natural disasters from the fcking climate crisis or the alien technology that eats people THE LIST GOES ON. THE WORLD IS IN RUIN. #POINT IS THEY SIGNED A CONTRACT ESSENTIALLY SELLING THEMSELVES TO THE CORPORATION IN ORDER TO ENSURE THEIR FAMILIES WERE SAFE #BUT THE ISSUE WITH THE BUBBLE CITIES IS THAT LIKE. THEY'RE ALL JUST WHITE SUBURBAN TOWNS. HELLSCAPE AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE #LITERALLY THEY'RE JUST CULTURE BLACK HOLES IN ORDER TO BE MARKETABLE. THAT IS KARAN'S STORY #so THEN the biggest theme of veneer is the art of being consumed #that is why the portals have teeth and [turn you into the funny fungus] eat you alive #there u go. now everything makes sense forever #i gotta draw more trains #veneer #cruddy rambles

ngl i get mad MAD when people are like "oh there are terrible things/people in europe too" in an effort to normalize what the fuck goes on here like lmfaooo thanks for telling me that i literally thought europe was a dreamland utopia where everything is good forever!!! welp at least they still have some basic human rights and stuff like that i guess.

#oh and it sucks they have inflation there too omg i thought it didnt exist there :(((( well at least the inflation rate there isnt like #fucking above 100% lmao #oh and it's Not normal to have 100k people die because of natural disasters and stuff #oh and i think they dont get arrested if they talk badly of their presidents in twitter idk #oh and they arent really steadily turning into a country with literal sharia law probably #oh and- #u get it #i know it's not the suffering contest but yeah please do not try to normalize this country's reality to me. thanks. #tr times #🗒

despite the fact that, for at least 14 years, my Notable Dance Ability™ (to the point that every single new teacher and friend AND the artistic director I last auditioned for have to comment on it and/or make me demonstrate) is That Girl Can Jump, I've never thought much about being naturally good at it aside from joking about my thighs but now I'm trying to figure out how to teach kids the progression from like baby jumps to fun jumps and my brain is just like well. you just. you Just Do It. that is All.

#the first step i was ever asked to demonstrate in a class was pas de chat when i was 7 #and now i'm trying to figure out what skills children need to know to do a pas de chat #but my brain cannot conceptualize a simpler version than Just Doing It #it's like me saying i should never teach english bc i'd be terrible at it because it comes naturally to me #jumping is the easiest and most natural part of ballet #how does one explain this #in hindsight this is also making me laugh a lil #because a while ago my teacher was doing his 20 Min Post-Class Private Lecture #and was like ''your coordination is much better when you're jumping'' and i was kinda like #well. yes. that is because i am thinking 0 thoughts you see. #personal #i'm really stuck on this #do they need to know pas de bourre before pas de chat? #i can't think #OH i'll make them do releve retiree switching legs from 3rd #muahaha i have cracked the code #going to be a disaster when i have to teach jetes #YOU JUST DO IT CHILDREN IDK WHAT TO TELL YOU #this is also tbf how i feel about like #italian fouettes #you just gotta commit. it's fine. just Do It.

I live in hell because I both am obsessed with and know a lot about my special interests while also having really bad memory that requires me to constantly reread and research stuff over and over again when I am not confident that I'm remembering right. Anyway, this post brought to you by me going to answer a question about a made up fantasy world and proceeding to spiral while frantically flipping through my historical atlas of the Balkans.

#the answer ended up being ''oh wait this isn't really croatia and it doesn't matter where it is in relation to [russia]'' #the balkans are fascinating tho imo #am always trying to learn more #my other special interest is natural disasters :^) #babbles #autism tag
