Did he who made the Lamb make thee? - this is heavily referencing Jacques Fabien Gautier d'Agoty's "Anatomical Angel" illustration, it's also inspired by William Blake's art, specifically "The Great Red Dragon" and his poem "The Tyger"

the thing that annoys me about some royai fanfics is when they try and have roy be more aware of himself during the maes hughes man hunt. like i get what they’re doing but it just bugs me because that man canonically is shown to neglect himself and others during that time.

like still one of my favorite fanfics is when roy tries to list all his shitty qualities to riza about why they shouldn’t have an affair cause he’d be a shitty partner and she’s just like “…. okay and the grass is green. is this supposed to be new information to me?” because that’s 100% what would happen. like rizas so self aware of how shitty he is but chose to love him anyway.

like that woman saw a idiot with tunnel vision who definitely got himself tied into a knot at some point trying to put up christmas lights and said to herself “that’s the one for me” and everyone questions her sanity daily

#that woman willingly fell in love with that fucker knowing how dumb he is #stop trying to make him emotionally smart in any capacity when that man is an idiot #kelly babels #fullmetal alchemist #royai #roy mustang #riza hawkeye

Treegate Update: No Permit Was Pulled To Trim Ficus Trees Outside of Universal’s Gate 8, Says City Controller

(7/19/23, Deadline)

UPDATED: LA City Controller Kenneth Mejia revealed in a tweet Wednesday that no permit was pulled to trim the now-infamous Ficus trees outside of Universal’s Gate 8.

He added in a thread that “The City of LA’s Urban Forestry Division (UFD) will coordinate w/ StreetsLA’s Investigation & Enforcement Division (IED) to confirm if this case warrants the issuance of an administrative citation or hearing. If issued, the administrative citation fee starts at $250.”

Mejia had previously tweeted that the trees — which had provided shade for picketers during the ongoing strike before they were pruned over the weekend — are LA City managed street trees.

After members of the WGA discovered the thinned-out trees and made a stink via social media, the studio provided tents for additional shade.

PREVIOUSLY:  Treegate just became a thing.

City Controller Kenneth Mejia has vowed to look into the newly pruned ficus trees outside of Universal’s Gate 8, after picketers drew attention to their thinned branches while marching in 90-degree-plus heat. Pine trees on the opposite side of Barham weren’t touched, and neither were a row of pepper trees behind the Universal fence near the production gate.

In a series of Tweets Tuesday, Mejia said his office is investigating what happened to the Ficuses on Barham Boulevard, which he said are “LA City managed street trees.” WGA picketers drew attention to their thinned out ranks on Monday. Universal owned up to trimming them but said in a statement it was done for “safety reasons” though it “has created unintended challenges for demonstrators, that was not our intention.”

“Trees are essential to providing Angelenos with significant environmental and public health benefits, especially during a heatwave,” Mejia said in a tweet. “Public Works’ Bureau of Street Services (StreetsLA) is responsible for maintaining the City’s 700,000+ trees in the public right-of-way.”

He went on to say in a thread that “code enforcement for street trees (including the pruning or removal of trees without a permit) is the responsibility of the StreetsLA Investigation and Enforcement Division. Violations can result in code enforcement citations.”

Separately, the fight over the studio’s construction on Lankershim Boulevard and its impact on the ongoing strike just got even bigger: The WGA and SAG-AFTRA today filed complaints with the National Labor Relations Board over the lack of safe pathways available for union members to picket.

“Within the past six months, [NBCUniversal Media] has interfered with, coerced, and restrained employees in the exercise of their rights under Section 7 of the [National Labor Relations] Act,” the Writers Guild of America, West, said in its filing (read it here).

Said interference includes but is not limited to “interfering with lawful picketing activity by designating as picketing locations areas where the public sidewalks have been covered up with construction fencing, forcing picketers to patrol in busy streets with significant car traffic where two picketers have already been struck by a car and by refusing to provide K-rail barriers to establish pedestrian walkways for picketers to use after Los Angeles Police Department advised the employer weeks ago in the interest of public safety to do so.”

SAG-AFTRA’s complaint reads in part: “On or around Thursday, July 13, 2023, the employer, through its agents and managers, instructed SAG-AFTRA to send its members to picket at the unsafe crowded location, exacerbating the dire public safety situation to interfere with striking members’ right to engage in the protected, concerted activity of picketing and patrolling outside the employer’s premises during a lawful strike.” Read the full filing here.

In response, an NBCUniversal spokesperson released this statement today: “We are aware of the WGA and SAG-AFTRA complaints. We strongly believe that the company has fulfilled our legal obligations under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) and we will cooperate with respect to any inquiries by the National Labor Relations Board on this issue. While we understand the timing of our multi-year construction project has created challenges for demonstrators, we continue to work with public agencies to increase access. We support the unions’ rights to demonstrate safely.”

The WGAW filing also cited “the egregious and flagrant nature of the employer’s illegal conduct and the irreparable harm, including the threat of bodily harm, caused by the above-mentioned violations of the Act.”

Only trait that I think a Starscream always has is that Starscream is persistent as HELL. He just doesn't let shit go, he always keeps coming back no matter how much you knock him down.

He's going to figure out a way , no matter who or what gets in his way. Rational or irrational.

I think I admire that in him alot.

#tfa starscream #Was just a persistent mother fucker till the very end #He never gave up what he set out to do #Even when maybe he should given up at certain points #But he reworked it #Like tfa Starscream just KEPT GOING #Even when he was just a damn head he took over omega Supreme #He is not a weak meak Starscream #Its a face sure but it's kit who he is #Tfp Starscream also persistent #Despite being massive out matched and under powered #Starscream is a smart bot and he not given nearly enough credit #If he didn't get cocky or arrogant in some continuity #He would be a force to be respected #Starscream #Even armada starscream #Just wanting to fight Megatron to make it all stop

You can say whatever you want about Revali as long as it includes how much of a gay idiot bird he is.

His idea of armor is a skirt and leg bracelets. He walks with one hand on his hip while talking shit. He had to pause mid conversation with Zelda to prove how cool he was with an air show complete with fireworks.

Shakspearen theater nerd levels of raging idiot homosexual. I will NOT be taking arguments at this time. Thank you

Rick and morty Headcannon - 20

This is one that I got from a Fic on Ao3 by bloodrunsred (word of mouth is the Fic name it’s rlly good, especially if you’re just looking for fluff or citadel content)

So, the majority of ppl agree on Rick speaking Spanish, and I do like that Headcannon! But because of my insatiable obsession with Morty, I’m making him bilingual too!

We all know that math isn’t Morty’s strong suit, so wouldn’t he be better at literature and language? I think that he actually understand the majority of what Rick says in Spanish fairly well, and even knows a few languages that Rick doesn’t know without a translator implant thingy. The fic that I got the idea from focused on morty knowing French and a tad bit of German, but I think that he able to pick up the gist of a lot of alien languages too. Maybe he’s better at writing some than speaking, and the opposite for others

Anyway, just another Headcannon making Morty smarter than he is in the show lol (but I love the idea that Morty understands everything that Rick says to him in Spanish, and gets rlly happy whenever Rick grumbles some kind of compliment or something to him, and whenever Rick finds out abt it he’d be rlly embarrassed)

I still think about this post I made anytime I see someone talk about Sephiroth Like That. It's still so weird to me, do people realize a character being designed to be hot doesn't automatically mean they're supposed to like… sex-y? With Kuja and Sephiroth I mean this as in their attractiveness is meant to be aesthetic more than sexual, it's like that shit Greta Gerwig was saying about Barbie to me.

I remember something that really struck me when I first played those two's respective games was the way their beauty was treated. I had never taken a game with bishounen characters seriously before, so there was a slight culture shock at how much aesthetic weight was put on them, especially combined with the angel motif in both their characters. Two interesting details about angels (archangels or guardian angels specifically) this brought up in my mind was 1) that traditionally these angels are meant to appear as incredibly attractive people, and 2) that they're traditionally portrayed as androgynous men. Which hey, they nailed those both on the head with their "One-Winged Angel" and "Angel of Death".

But with angels, that humanity and human attractiveness is kind of just a guise for a creature, ancient, divine, and terrifyingly powerful - sort of far beyond the actual functions of a human skin. So their attractiveness is not because they're sexy or sexual, but because its an aesthetic representation of that divinity - a way to make that appalling level of power more palatable and, attractive.

And I find that really fun and interesting, a lot in a gender way because, once again, angels traditionally being seen as masculine, and that sort of "sexy for no reason even if its a de-sexualized non-human being" is only ever an excuse for flaunting a feminine form and not a masculine. And I tell you boys, I am on my hands and knees scraping at the dirt everyday for representations of male beauty.

Which is why for Sephiroth and Kuja this was so striking to me. The way their designed beauty incidentally or purposefully invokes the beauty of angels is just so cool. They are characters not at all presented as having any sexuality of their own, but that It-Factor they got encompasses their character and how they are popularly perceived. Like what would Sephiroth be without his imposing form, long silky hair, and cat-like eyes? Or Kuja without his doll-like face and, well, everything else about him? But that beauty is not FOR us or the characters - it's attractive, even captivating, but venomous. Those mako eyes only hold emptiness, to then be set ablaze by an otherworldly, alien hatred; Kuja's lips only purse in a sadistic, callous grin before twisting into the tortured scowl of a disgraced angel willing to destroy creation out of spite.

And that cruel beauty is mesmerizing to players and a lot of what they're remembered for. Which once again was amazing to me cause they're guys and seeing men get that level of attention warms my cold bisexual heart, but also because MAN it ties in so well to their motifs. I straight up think you get less out of them by assuming that being designed to be hot and being a character with sexuality are synonymous. At least personally I am way more enamored with this dynamic of these beings made to catch our eyes (either narratively or meta-textually) in order to tease our senses and twist our hearts, as they move whole celestial bodies and crumble empires with a smile. I'm Just Obsessed.

IDK #also yes there is also a lot to be said about the ableism of it too but thats why its fun to see it subverted- #-in that no it doesnt actually mean purity just the allure of or disguise of it #just because angels are beautiful and divine doesnt mean they are perfect beauty is not a moral judgement #and if anything these fuckers are abusing that assumption lol #i need to read the bible and get into religious studies deadass #so that i can talk about the funny anime boys ofc thats what you do with that knowledge #tag talking

I for one can appreciate a good ol horror-esque dark romance cod fic/headcanon post but I can't help but imagine the reader as Mutt everytime and there isn't a day on God's green earth that woman would let a MAN harass/manipulate or stalk her in any variation

#tj talks #ol mama too smart and cautious she'd sniff those fuckers out in a second #however she does probably have a bit if a warped sense of romance ie her childhood crush <3

nergal: an era is passing, constantine. for centuries the realms of darkness and of light have shared the bounty of this world; grazing in roughly equal measures the vast rolling plains of human souls. like bison, occasionally locking horns for push and shove. but always the contest was circular: ground gained on one front was lost on another. constantine: all right, you can skip the primary meta-physics. just give me the details, i'm out of grade school now.

his mind is so??????? why are you like this. HOW are you like this.

#( ooc. ) OUT OF CIGS. #he is so terrifyingly smart it really blows my mind #see he's such a force to be reckoned with in the occult world bc he Thinks like these fuckers do but he doesn't Act like it #he's darkly poetic and melancholic and vicious but he chooses to stamp it down and say 'yeah that's stupid. and so are you' #which is probably why he hates himself as well! he recognizes himself in these fuckers! food for thought!

UCR in the Twin AU would definitely be obsessed with those lighter things that light up candles, and he’d freak SR out with them by getting close to him while the flame’s still on >:))
