living in hinamizawa must be so fucking funny. its june 1983, youre hanging out with your friends in some fuckass village with zero (0) formal education institutions and being like yeah man im so hyped to go to the watanagashi festival and play the ring toss. hopefully nobody dies from the blood curse for the fifth consecutive year :/ anyways do these cicadas ever shut the fuck up or

#lets go play fucking old maid: IMPOSSIBLE VERSION #anyways fuck okinomiya #hinamizawa gang forever #shitpost #higurashi #higurashi no naku koro ni #all of your friends have brightly colored hair in a town where hair dye is considered devil worshipping #you wanna go to the supermarket? turn left at the godless fetid swamp where a woman killed herself after being kissed by the devil #rikas life is hilarious forreal. sign me up for that time loop #she saw keiichi grab that baseball bat for the fifth hundred and seventy fourth time and said: lets see how this plays out #let him cook actually

Guys you don’t have to be sad about Em never meeting Jaiden. They HAVE met. Briefly, after Em lost her first life, she sat up in the clouds with this really nice lady with blue hair and this boy in overalls talking about pokémon until Bagi’s cries beckoned her away again.

They HAVE met! It’s okay :D

Bi-Han wifed up the baddest bitch in Outworld (she can't fight her way out of a lunch bag and she's God's favourite idiot)

#anyway goodbye male/female hello ninja/farm girl #some talia (the oc) lore bc i wanna rant abt her LETS GOOOO. she's from the southern part of edenia #due to northern prejudices and general royal dickiness. southerners are generally regarded as uneducated barbarians #simply because they're mainly farmers and homebuilders. Talia was selected as Kitana and Mileena's nanny/nursemaid #since they were babies and they love her sm. they def see her as a second mother and wanted to set her up with sindel multiple times #she was childhood friends with the lin kuei bros bc they'd sneak around all the time. bi-han made her promise they'll get married when #he becomes grandmaster. talia accepted because of COURSE he'll be one. a good one. a loyal one. :) #TALIA IS CHAOTIC GOOD. shes sweet and kind but this woman would fight satan for a pop tart #bi-han loves her so much but you bet he chases her pretty ass everyhere cause she gets herself in trouble all the time. #anyway dumbass women rule <333 #bi-han #bi han #mk1 #mortal kombat #mk x oc #canon x oc #digital art #wip #lee draws

a great advice for when you are afraid that your oc is too similar to a canonical character is to Take your oc and dump them directly into the place of the canon character to see how They'd react to the situations. they react too similarly for your tastes? edit them up.

example: it was worrying me quite a lot that Zephyr might be too similar to Moon. both an old female ("female"... it's supersized microwaves how female could it be /j) Gen 1 iterator that is the senior of her group that collapses and her absence seems to somehow both affect a lot and not at all the rest of the group, both are relatively kind as evidenced by their interactions with slugcats. alright, that's really similar- don't feckin like that! but big part of that is the inevitable fate of all iterators (all will one day collapse). you could call it a trope, cliché. tropes and clichés are tools for the story to take a root somewhere and then the characters themselves help develop it in an unique way

"okay, so i'm going to throw Zephyr into Moon's situation and compare how both of them (would in Zeph's case) deal with it to see if their personalities are too much the same." i say to myself result:

Key Element Discovered: Moon Does Not Possess The Will To Utilize La Chancla Within Five Seconds Of Being Confronted With A Bitchy Child. Let Us Build Off From That

#Spot says stuff #rw #oc tag #Abet 'fuck them kids' Zephyr #JLSKDJGLKS róba z Moravy... #zephyr has the fuckin vibes of 'whos that-? who are you! whats that. put that down!!!!! whats that over there-? Dont Do That.' #zephs on TOP of shit wanna know what collapsed her? fuckin Herself. she just said 'aight we goin down today boys cheers' and she WENT 🛬 #see and there u go. developed woman in under five tags n one exercise

This was supposed to be posted yesterday for Women’s International Day :’D sorry I don’t know how to draw bed sheets 😭

#springdad au #fnaf #I LOVE WOMEN #my art #if you see me making art of characters i haven't explicitly talked about- #this means i'm not entirely sure of who they are yet #Alice is a very kind woman. a little troubled too #she's trying very hard both as a person and as a mother #she thinks she's not doing enough tho #life has always been rough and she's never got to rest until she stopped working as a performer and found Elizabeth #she believes she's made poor decisions as a teenager and swore not to let herself be manipulated or influenced by others #that's why she is very suspicious of Springdad at first... #she just needs some time for herself that's all #I like to think she received support from her family and found a new. much better job #anyway so. this is her :]

I don’t need a jealous Syd. What I need is Carmy constantly picking the restaurant (Sydney) over Claire. If they stay together after the fridgecident until Claire realizes that maybe the restaurant (Sydney) is really what he cares about and maybe she forced herself on a person who she thought she knew but really doesn’t know at all. It might be a nasty breakup because Carmy doesn’t realize why giving all of his focus and attention to the restaurant (Sydney) is a problem and he’s just trying to please the both of them and if Claire doesn’t get that then maybe she should leave him alone. Claire is like this is not about the restaurant. It’s never been about the restaurant. It’s always been about Sydney….

#Hehehehe🤭🤭🤭 #I really don’t see anything messy and dramatic like this happening #but all s2 was quite messy and dramatic #also after this that’s when Carmen starts to blatantly realize it’s always been Sydney #sydcarmy #the Bear s3 delusions #like if we gonna have to sit with Claire again give her a backbone PLEASE #make her realize she was wrong for inserting herself into a situationship #yall stay trying to make Sydney this scorned woman when she just tryna do her job #sydney adamu #carmy berzatto #Claire no last name

it’s so funny how henry winter backs out of the poison mushroom plan and he’s like what was I thinking it’s too good of a plan it’s too elegant it’s too premeditated but also who does that it’s absurd

meanwhile we literally have a death cap mushroom murder case going on in Australia right now

#I really want to see the outcome of that hearing I think they were trying her before Christmas #the secret history #henry winter #the woman is no henry winter tho she didn’t even poison herself properly

pretty bird, pretty bird, i know youre hurting but so am i

#betty grof #magic woman #adventure time #do you think betty took a moment to really take in the fact that magic EXISTS and its not just nebulous its a force of nature in the world #or #did she immediately leap into it as a means to an end #a tool to use for her goal #no time to process the beauty and strangeness of this new world gotta cure simon #or did she spend even a moment during that long year wondering what the future would b like if she accomplished her goal #did she give herself time to reckon with her newfound powers and madness/sadness? #did she see? did she explore? did she allow herself to get excited by this new interesting world? #or did betty just have tunnel vision? #i think about it.

When it comes to Penelope I feel like a lot of her fans take any valid criticism towards her and turn it into hate, which does her character a disservice. While some people do hate on her, a lot of it holds valid reasons. Admitting that she has hurt many people isn't wrong because she has, it's been shown on throughout the show and the impacts it can have. From labeling Daphne as "unmarriageable" during her first season and events that followed, her labeling Eloise as being part of a group of rebels, the terms she used to describe Kate [and Simon]-- which carried racial undertones no matter how you try to spin it, who didn't even know personally at that point, what she did Marina. All of these were very harmful and to say that none of these characters should feel angry, that they should just forgive Penelope without any work put into it is very laughable (especially because she's still writing as Whistledown and put many, namely women, at risk during a time where reputation is everything--something in which Penelope herself faces). With this being said, criticizing her actions, at least for me, doesn't come from a complete place of hate but more so from believing that she can be better if she puts in the work. By ignoring all that she's done and having her get her happily ever after so easily in the end, to be honest, would ultimately feel lackluster. I feel like she still has room to grow, but it will take a lot of work and, I personally, think seeing her renavigate who she is with who she wants to be outside of Lady Whistledown would be very interesting.

#bridgerton #penelope featherington #idk if this counts as anti but I'll label it as such too #anti penelope featherington #bc some people don't see it her referring to kate as a “beast” was wrong as hell and definitely side eye worthy coming from this yte woman #like she didn't even know kate and wrote that about her #and her ableist comments towards george were absolutely unnecessary as well #so deny that none of these things holds impact would be highly untrue and make the story very flat #i do think pen provides valuable insight to a different perspective of the ton and was helpful in eloise seeing a different view #so that's one [of very few] reasons that i think she should have a chance of redeeming herself #but that also doesn't mean that any of these characters should forgive her either #penelope stans and/or polin stans do not interact if you can't be respectful! #(also bc some people like to say “but the bridgertons are privileged and got their happy endings” #one just bc they got their happy endings in the end doesn't mean that what pen wrote didn't put them in difficult situations or that she #should be thanked as if she helped them [with daphne that was mainly her and her own mother's doing] #[for eloise that different bc it puts her and her family under political scrutiny as well bc do you honestly think being labeled as associat #-ing with rebels would be a good thing?]

bonus

I recently finished watching this episode and I swear Eliot had more chemistry with Libby than with the Marshall.

Tried and failed to make a coherent post about this but the Granny Weatherwax moment that lives with me forever that I never see quoted is the “what has he ever done to me, that I should hurt him so”

#the context is a pregnant woman gets kicked by a horse and she can only save one #and afterward the midwife is disapproving bc she thinks she should've let the husband choose #a lot of people think Granny Weatherwax is proud or gives herself airs or thinks she's better and more important than other people #and they're not necessarily Wrong #but she doesn't see taking these choices out of people's hands as a privilege #she sees it as a terrible burden #and a lot of her pov books are her just barely managing to stay standing under the weight of them #discworld #perpetual ladies night 2k22 #midwife: you should've let this man choose to save either his wife or his infant son #granny weatherwax: that would be cruel and horrible. I will do the cruel and horrible thing #I will be the wicked witch so you don't have to be #perpetual perpetual ladies night #why this

It's crazy that people still uphold show!Sansa as a well-written character and pretend that liking her is the pinnacle of feminism when it would be infinitely more impactful to acknowledge her terrible and misogynistic writing. This is the same character who, while written by two men, was thankful for the abuse she suffered because it allowed her to grow. The same character who we had to be told was smart because the writers were too lazy to develop or show her intelligence. The same character who had to rely heavily on the men surrounding her and ended up accomplishing nothing on her own merit ( and no, thinking that she deserved to be Queen doesn't mean that she earned it). She is not well-written, she is not complex, and she is not a feminist character. Which is fine! If you enjoy her then good on you, but please stop pretending that she's something she isn't just because you feel the need to justify liking her character

#anti got #anti d&d #anti show sansa #anti sansa stans #like literally one of the worst written characters on that show because they tried so hard to make her the most important #while being entirely incompetent and their only method of doing so was to steal from other characters which ruined the plot #the only arguable achievement was defeating LF but even then it's written in the script that she had to go to Bran to explain things #/she rallied the Vale army!/ no she didn't 😭 she wrote a letter to LF and he did everything. instead of showing her arc in the Vale and #her learning about politics to rally them herself they took the quickest route to give her a /badass/ savior scene #which only ended up making her look selfish + power-hungry for putting her brothers' lives at risk for not telling anybody about said lette #and idiotic in the aftermath after relying once again on LF even though he was very obviously manipulating her #/pawn to player/ sounds catchy on paper but without seeing that growth/development it doesn't work #Arya was terribly written but at least we /saw/ her training in a way we never did with Sansa #and people try to apply this same logic to the books and think she's gonna suddenly spring forth as a political mastermind #when that's not how George writes...we see characters develop and make mistakes on page and get actual earned growth #feminism isn't defending the writing of two men who gave her a rape plot not in the books because they thought it was /interesting/ #when the only aspect of that plot they adapted was a woman suffering abuse :/ #and as per usual with stansas their only /evidence/ of her being well-written is accusing you of being misogynistic if you don't like her

feels weird seeing people passing around that aita post as an example of Topical Real Transmisogyny like. u guys know those are the most notoriously fake stories on the internet right. u guys know redditors make that shit up to make people mad right
