#one I'm maybe being unfair to

[doppelnatur]

I think some White people use representation, inclusion and diversity as like reasons and justifications to make kind of insensitive and appropriative works

#like idk how to say this but like #if you've never spoken with an indigenous person is your video game about indigenous people representation? #if you don't have a close black friend is your black character representation? #like idk ofc step out of your little box etc #idk. how much write what you know is good and how much like. does it limit the representation #ok no wait i think I figured it out actually. having a game about idk school with indigenous characters when you're informed and maybe #idk talked to an indigenous sensitivity reader. that's good and fine. #making a game about indigenous american life as a white German who has never even texted an indigenous person; #? #that's a lil. odd? #idk idk idk #just. talk to people man #I'm vagueing two ppl from my uni #one I'm maybe being unfair to #i just kind of dislike her #but that one character feels like. idk. i get why you need him? but it feels very... why is he Like That #i feel like the game is more normal and Ok than that comic. but also I've only seen pictures not the whole thing #but yeah #i should not go on Instagram

I feel like if Dipper were ever reincarnated as a demon, he wouldn't fit in super well with the others. Yes, he's been raised to vie for power and step on everyone in his way using whatever means is necessary - it's the same toxic bizz as when he was a human, appealing to gender norms. He's tougher, scarier, more powerful (than ordinary humans, that is), but when it comes to asserting control - being Evil - he doesn't have it in him. Given enough time, I think he'd grow pretty vocal about leaving living things alone. NOT torturing organisms for the hell of it, or stealing people's souls, or conquering planets. Sure, he's a demon. That's no excuse to be a MONSTER.

It's a VERY unpopular opinion amongst neighboring demons, and rumor spreads fast about the Goody Two-Shoed Activist imp raining on everyone's blood-splattered parade, so much so that it makes it to Bill, who's immediately intrigued. Call it intuition, but only one soul's capable of overriding goddamn demon nature for some preachy bullshit about "Doing Good." Lucky for him, demons occupy the same plane of existence, so all it really takes to verify the guy is a snap of his fingers, and POOF! He's floating right next to him. Sure enough, Dipper's fashioned himself a new and improved demonic form, and it is lovely!

No one likes Dipper's kumbaya "Can't We All Just Get Along" ideology, but Bill's almost instantly smitten with the guy, whoever he is, so he's gotta be at least somewhat powerful. Demons take notice when the all-powerful Bill Cipher starts lending his time (and magic?) to some low-leveler like Dipper. Is he being blackmailed? Are they working together? No. Not possible. Bill doesn't "work" with anyone, save for whatever human catches his eye every few decades. Doesn't look to be doing him any benefit, either. The opposite, even. Lending power to a saint like Dipper only makes it harder to cause chaos, after all. Why would he actively go against his OWN best interest to cater some imp's? It's almost like he's. He's.

A henchmen.

(Bill's also 30% more affectionate the first month they reunite, because he still can't believe that his adorable little human husband came back as the same SPECIES as him! He'd never complain over having a sweet human to squeeze, but one with teeth and claws and cute pointy ears doesn't hurt).

#answers #I can't help but picture demon dipper starting out all like #I'm Bad 😡 I'm Mean 😡 I'm Evil As Heck!! 😡 #And still having a HUGE hatred for things that are Unfair or Unjust. One time he saved a kitten from a tree and got embarrassed about it #Eventually he just has to give into his nature and speak up about all the BULLSHIT he sees going on around him #Sorry Dippin' Dots even the society that 'raised' you can't prevent you from your do-gooder ways #Don't worry Bill loves you for the stupid idiot you are #Everyone is completely BAFFLED by Bill acting like a friggin' henchman though #I bet they don't even peg it as romantic interest at first. Dipper sure doesn't #He's thinking this is some Grand Scheme to convince him back into the evil fold #And to be fair Bill's very tempting in that respect. But not leaning as hard into it as he *could* be #Maybe he thinks Bill's trying to 'mentor' him for something. Seems like the kind of thing Bill would imply and let Dipper fill in the gaps #They're technically not the same SPECIES since Dipper's probably some human-shaped 'demon' #And Bill's originally from a two-dimensional weird universe. Technically speaking he's His Own Thing #Aside from whatever refugees escaped that plane. If any. #Demon covers a LOT of different beings that don't have much or any genetics in common #But you KNOW Bill's thrilled as hell that Dipper's Slightly More Immortal than usual!! This one's gonna last a WHILE #*slams fist on table* Give Dipper A Tail With A Tuft That Bill Can Pull To Be Annoying #Final thought: In this incarnation Bill might have been wondering where the hell Dipper got to since there's no human around #Given a long enough time he might even wonder if he was LOST #So you know that when Dipper reemerges on the scene everyone else was dealing with a VERY unhappy Bill Cipher for QUITE a while

Actually, Rita is afraid of the dark. They don't want Gira and the team to know, so they hid their left eye with King's Hotline and departed in an awkward walk towards the Underground Empire Bugnarok. While suggesting they turn back, Jeramie noticed. Rita screamed, but they still fulfill their duty as a witness until the end.

(tv asahi ep26 guide)

#kingohger #kingohger spoilers #ko26 #rita kaniska #kingohger ref #kopn #i wonder how much that walk is acting and how much is yuzuki honestly can't see #i just find it really strange that Rita is afraid of the dark. not saying they /can't/ be and maybe i'm a little unfair to deem it childish #but like. polar night/day should've made someone raised there (if not born) accustomed to irregular light supply? #and... photosensitivity (hc) #other than that Gokkan definitely sounds like they'll get regular blackouts either because of poor infrastructure or snowstorms #I suppose if they are still the 10-year-old in ep16 than it's reasonable they have one weakness being afraid of the dark :'(

the longer i sit with it the more it really gets me how nobody ever really mentions obito and rin before obito's reveal in shippuden. kakashi vaguely mentions his old friends and i think other characters allude to the tragedy of kakashi's past but rin and obito themselves are lost to time. something about that is so fucking haunting and so gutting. you would think it would be a pretty big deal that two kids from the same class died within a year of each other, but the nine tails attack probably wiped so much clean that nobody could really carry the grief... still, when we see their class in flashbacks, we recognise almost everyone else, so... there's something really sad and hopeless about their absence...

there's a lot a LOT to say about it from a lot of different angles and i don't really feel like going into meta posting territory i just have big feelings about it you know? and to me i guess obito encapsulates a lot of the anger. for the people who get left behind and forgotten. and that can mean a lot of things

#two of my classmates died on separate occassions in short span of time in high school and i wont claim that grief because #i didnt know either of them well but i did feel a lot of anger and overwhelming hopelessness. that life keeps relentlessly going on #even when people get left behind #it feels so unfair and so painful... there are so many more aspects to it though as well #like people who are left behind in other ways due to circumstance or class or race or etc etc- often a combination of those factors #and obito as a kid reminds me a lot of a good friend i had when i was little who was late to class every day #because of those outside circumstances #and again someone in high school who i was late WITH every day. because ya #and i feel very big about that. and about rins death as something so fucking preventable #the tragedy also of baby teacher minato who was so so not ready to be in charge of anyone. but. that's something else #anyway i guess i just really feel a connection with that anger and despair #sorru was watching niji and felt fucking insane about it #obito and rin are like two sides of one thing. maybe of one person. of one concept #part of why i'm so so crazy about obito being trans is because i see him as also using rin's memory as a conduit for #his anger and grief about his own lost younger self. hence: baby obito is also a little girl #i think they are best friends. its so important. idk none of this is wider narrative meta #its just my feelings about them in particular #haunting dead girl and the ghost who has to carry on and can't rest

[thyandrawrites]

Bold words from the man who answered "I don't know" when asked by his mentee how to face an unexpected challenge lmao

#Unpopular opinion but as unhinged as chris is I think he's the best mentor among all of them #For one he didn't try to force his ideals onto the kids he's mentoring #But instead showed them how to better their existing assets and guided them towards solidifying and chasing their vision #Tbf noa also attempted to do that but way more passively #He didn't offer any actual advice he was just there like 'get better physical stats and be rational. That's it' #Ok maybe I'm being unfair since I think noa's overhyped #But still #I will not accept his slander of chris #Blue lock #Blue lock spoilers

[gentlethorns]

okay i'm struggling again

#she bork #tbd #idk i'll be fine life is just very mean and unfair and worst of all ordinary and dull. i go to work i come home i do nothing worthwhile. #weekends are never long enough and i never get to cram enough into them to enjoy myself. if life was mean but also generous and glamorous i #could maybe put up w it bc for every low there would be a high but it's not. it's just mean and you hit that low and then instead of it #being followed by a high you just end up on a plateau and eventually you hit another low. god i just don't think i was supposed to live in #this ordinary boring tedious life like i'm not made for it. not in a pretentious arrogant way but in a way that's like i'm going fucking #crazy like i have cabin fever but w my life rather than my environment (which tbh maybe they come down to one and the same). idk sometimes i #want to just blow up my life and go somewhere else and do something else and have fun and not feel so weighted down by responsibilities and #bills and worry about money specifically. like i was miserable in high school but now i think i look back on it fondly bc 1. no true #responsibilities or high stakes and/but 2. the stakes always FELT high like i was CONSTANTLY up and down and euphoric and depressed. not #healthy at all but it always felt like something was HAPPENING and now it just doesn't. i have always though that bored was the worst thing #to be and now here i am all the time it feels like. bored. #and again at the root of everything is that life is mean. mean mean mean. sometimes shit just HAPPENS that's bad and fucks you over and #there's nothing you can do about it. and again if there was something guaranteed to make up for it that would be fine but there's not. you #just have to recover and let it go and move on. and i'm not good at that

me: wakes up and uses my entire photo upload limit immediately

#me #i sure hope i don't feel the need to post any images today #(except maybe what i already uploaded) #if anybody sends me an ask and i don't respond to it today it might be that i'm just waiting until tomorrow where i can use an image #I CAN'T USE MY RUSS GIF EITHER #the one #the hand kiss one #unfair that he gets to kiss his hand #i want to #anyway #i used up my entire limit on the video i giffed yesterday and i didn't even get to upload the whole thing yet #i didn't expect a video for ONE SONG to be too much for the limit #but i guess with so many scene cuts #short scenes means more scenes #SO i was able to upload liiiike 120 gifs then #that's the limit?? #i never actually knew what the limit was i'd just upload until it said i can't anymore #why 120 of all numbers #i was only like two gifsets away from being able to upload the whole video #and i didn't even get to the slow/fast versions of things yet #well i'll allow myself to post some today anyway even though i like to have everything uploaded and tagged and done #and in my drafts set to go before i post from it #yesterday i was like 'oh i can just upload this and then still maybe have some of the limit left over for the other video i've been uploadi #ng' #i was WRONG #but tomorrow i will. i. i think. unless i made too many slow/fast versions of things #I'LL STOP TYPING NOW BYE

Thinking about the time Tumblr was convinced "Nurse" was an inherently abusive position that only the meanest and nastiest of high school girls take up so they can have power over vulnerable disabled people, and then forgot that nurses face more physical violence in the workplace than any other profession and get paid dirt. During a pandemic, when every week there was a news article about Covid Deniers attacking ER nurses with chairs.

#I'm not saying the healthcare system can't be abusive #but it's abusive because it's a system and systems are open to abuse #I've been treated like shit by doctors way more than by nurses but I didn't see any posts talking about how all doctors were mean in school #Also very interesting no one was talking about male nurses and how they have an inherent lust to abuse patients #And nobody was willing to acknowledge the horrible way we treat nurses and the non-existent value we place on their work #like it's just misogyny guys #like maybe it's healthcare being an unfair power dynamic that's the problem and not women in general

Y'all know that the people who are going to love you the most in the world are still going to be annoyed with you at times right? That impatience and frustration are human emotions that everyone invokes in others at some point or another? That being loved as a neurodivergent person doesn't mean finding people who are never bothered by your needs or behaviors, but rather finding people whose love for you outweighs those incompatibilities? Y'all realize that sometimes you might just...talk too much on a day that your partner would prefer silence? Or make a mess on a day your roommate just cannot handle having to clean up for you? Or that in the months you spent in hermit mode you were actually unavailable to a friend who really needed your support?

Y'all understand that at times your friends/family/partner are going to have needs that misalign with yours and that BOTH OF YOU are going to have to figure out the best way to handle that?

#This is specifically about that one Instagram post #Where the guy is like “My friend and I have a flight in 40 minutes and he was supposed to pick me up an hour ago and I'm very annoyed” #and all of the comments were people saying that maybe the friend has time blindness #and this is why NTs are bad friends #and that op is being ableist for getting upset #this is also about all those posts where people say “I know shut everyone out for weeks and was totally mia” #“But being upset at me is MEAN and UNFAIR :(” #Or all of those very concerning posts about waiting for friends/partners who are always super understanding and never complain #Like guys #That's not how have having loved ones works #Are you going to run from anyone who EVER gets annoyed with you? #Anyone who isn't constantly acting as a perfect pillar of support and validation? #thoughts #let me die #if i die #queer #neurodiversity #actually mentally ill #actually ocd #oc drawing #relationships #platonic relationships #romantic relationships #emotions

Ran out of answer spaces but! I felt it was important to split off Team Plasma since there is a significant ideological difference between them (as far as I remember each ideation of Team Rocket has the same goals/beliefs, Giovanni himself just stepped down and changed his mind)

That said! This is less about favorite gen and more about believing in the beliefs -- especially interesting to consider if you align with the Main Villain and their outlook, or if you believe in the so-called "cause" that may or may not be true, or have some truth to it (like, if you wanted to help Pokemon like og Plasma and Aether Foundation).

Sorry to lump Yell and Star together, I was going chronologically!! You'll have to specify which and why in the tags haha (if you want to that is!)

And honestly that goes for any choice, sell it to me. Why should I join Your team?

#pokemon #i'm sure this has been done before but also i want to have a specific focus on like. WHY you're joining. beyond favoritism! #i've already made my choice tbh it's team skull. like they have a point and an extremely valid reason to be angry. #if you can't measure up and do the island challenge as expected ESP when it is SO culturally significant in alola #what do you even do. ofc you're gonna be washed up and burned out and carrying the weight of failure with you always. #until one day you're like 'hey isn't weird we put so much pressure on literal 11 year olds actually' #and then you start questioning tradition and expectations and the system and you're like okay. #LET'S START COMMITTING CRIME #really i think the only area they went wrong was to bully the 11y/os about it instead of directing their rage #at the adults who put them in that situation in the first place. LIKE. imagine a world where team skull on top of being public nuisances #were instead actively trying to recruit every kid doing the island challenge to their cause #to dismantle the significance of the island challenge and maybe where they go wrong here is #they're 'too destructive' and there's a place to meet in the middle (can be an annoying message but also. kids game LMFAO) #that said it would be really interesting how they'd interact w the captains as well cause a lot of them are kids too #are they also regarded as victims of an unfair system like the island challengers or someone who upholds it? #ultimately team skull is still a red herring but. it would make for some wild world building! #also team star is extremely based and have done nothing wrong in their entire lives. i am fighting the school board about it.

I want to joke that it's all these new games that make it unappealing to play dbd, but no. it's dbd that makes it unappealing to play dbd lately.

the game feels so unrewarding for killer players who don't want to just brainlessly cruise through matches as blight or nurse. I'd say I'm a pretty decent killer, but I definitely don't expect to win every match with killers like ghostface or hux. it's just not realistic. but what feels so unforgiving and unfair is to play against back to back to back to back combinations of the same broken perks + gen rush toolboxes + map offerings.

#thoughts about media #sorry no game tag because I am NOT arguing with the playerbase of this game. #I will leave that to the professionals. #which- speaking of professionals. hey bhvr do you want to maybe consider what mr. otz says should be fixed? #or are we going to continue in this hellish landscape where survivors have stackable haste and 4000 different ways to gain deep wound? #including one that the only counterplay is to either injure all survivors or to force a grab somehow- most likely by being wesker? #otz always has good ideas on how to fix the game and then bhvr is like: #“what if we made hangman's trick a scourge hook?” #survivors can criticise killer perks all they want but there's nothing AS broken on killer side as buckle up or stackable haste. #there are KILLERS themselves who should be nerfed. like blight specifically has had it WAY too good for WAY too long. #but bro most of the killer perks are relatively fine and at most require small changes. #like I agree that stbfl and ultimate weapon need be changed. but the changes required there are minor. #whereas mft and buckle up are just fucking disgusting. #and adrenaline man. I'm tired of pretending that adrenaline isn't mad unfair. #otz is right that shit should NOT be able to heal you off hook. #anyways off to go kiss boys in baldur's gate to lower my blood pressure.

Just got a phone interview scheduled for today at 1pm, waiting to hear back from another place on an offer or a “no thanks”, and I have until Thursday to yay or nay the offer I got last week.

All things considered, HOUSE OF WOLF FEELING PRETTY OKAY THIS GREY AND RAINY MONDAY MORNING

#life with jet wolf #the all new all different here we go again #i'm like 99.4% going to take the offer from last week #my hope is that the other place comes in with a higher offer that i can show to the first place that they'll match #but even if not i'm probably going with them as i'd much MUCH prefer the work #the interview place today i have wobbly feelings about #but the conversation experience will be beneficial even if it goes nowhere else #i get massive techbro vibes from them which may be unfair #but like #one of their listed benefits is a private sports park with bocce ball #YOU'RE IN BILLINGS MONTANA MY DUDE #I'M NOT SURE IF YOU'RE AWARE #they also have a 'fun committee' though so maybe they aren't #and maybe i'm just being judgey that's not outside the realm of possibility #it's worth talking to them at any rate #if they want to pretend they're in the bay area maybe they'll have bay area salaries too #in summation: MANY HAPPENINGS

It's quite curious the one arc in which they stuck closest to Silver's game characterization is the one in which they "needed" to make a fool of someone...

#fans don't look #idw Sonic #just something I thought... #and yet they let his game characterization go in the one scene it would've broken the plot #maybe I'm being unfair... #everyone had to lose almost half of the braincells to mimic keep infiltrated #now we let the salty aura go
