bitches will abandon you for a century, eat your intestines with their dick and completely the cycle of abuse by becoming you, and then expect you not to eviscerate yourself in a final desperate act of love and revenge

#madk #madk j #if you couldn't tell i love the madk ending #it's so perfect #makoto could never truly understand j until he was gone #because the loneliness of losing someone who knows you is such an integral part of j's character and worldview #m is then doomed to the exact same cycle #seeking out someone who can understand and destroy him as he did to j #it's so beautiful #also sorry for anyone who got spoiled from this post that makoto eats j's intestines again but this time with his magnum dong #madk is a wild manga

hey, sorry im drawing a blank, where is the "so just like a normal gay couple then" quote from exactly?

I've been seeing it going around again and I wanted to reread the whole interview but I can't find it

DNA magazine january 2023!

the interviewer really made some phannie enemies with some of those questions

#anon ask #i do understand the people that tried to see it from the interviewers side who doesnt know dan and didnt appreciate his non answers but als #as a queer person you should understand what it means when someone is dancing around a subject for a reason and to drop it? #fun fact that is the first thing i saw on my 30th birthday like as i woke up so truly insane day

The jason dead for 20 years au would be so funny because the only person who would hate bruce’s retirement more than bruce would be jason because his plan just goes out the window because he accounted to the batman he’s fighting to be bruce not whoever’s wearing it now

The more I think about this au the funnier it gets bc you have Jason's wee pit moment being the same he gets to the hotel and sees the newspaper with the picture of batman on it and still gets mad bc wtf thats not Bruce and what does this paper mean it's 2040 how dare time goes on with out him he's gonna go beat up Bruce bc fuck that old man

#ask #anon #i am an optimistic and do believe joker would have gotten himself killed by the time bruce is 60 #but im also someone who subscribes to the notion #thats jasons anger is really complianted and even he doesnt truly understand why hes mad #he just wants it to be bruces fault #so off he goes #even talias over it all by now #shes just like #okay let me get my coat #ill take you to gotham and you can decapitate some people

#he died the first time knowing he was out of time. he lived for ten years with every day being another bit of time he couldn’t believe he go #t but still couldn’t truly live with it. and then to meet someone. who cares for you irreparably. who cares for you when you’re trouble or #sick or well or bitter—someone who only wants your time. which is the one thing you don’t have. and you don’t have the heart to tell him. #even to the end. that the thing you resented for ten years. the thing you had no regard for or hope to change. is what you want more than #anything. so you can have it with him. so you can live with him. again. a third life. and you don’t get it #and he won’t understand until you’ve left and then. well. then is a beach and a meeting months too late #mysterious lotus casebook #Anne Carson #parallels #li lianhua #li xiangyi #fang duobing #di feisheng

What would mimic!cesar do in the event that he ended up lashing out or letting instincts get to him, hurting others around him?

I think it would depend on the person. If it were Cian or Sam who got hurt, he would apologise profusely. If it were Mark... he'd pretty much shut down entirely.

It would also depend on how badly he'd hurt said person, but either way it would haunt him - that stark reminder that he is not human and he never will be.

#hail true body #mustang answers! #htb mimic!cesar #get your mimic angst!!! monster tries to be human and is horribly reminded of what he really is!! #and the only person who really seems to understand that feeling - of wanting to be someone else but being trapped in a body that doesnt #reflect who you really are - is sam. only sam truly understands that. they get to share a very special bond and scene in the later parts of #the story based around that <3

Biting the bars of my enclosure about autistic ford tonight. There's something about him using vocabulary and turns of phrase that seem "outdated" or "pretentious" that feels so painfully genuine to me. When people say he talks like that just to "try to sound smart" I wish I could explain what it's like to be so ostracized from your peers growing up that you spend all your time reading instead, to the point where you pick up your way of speaking from books instead of from people. And then what it's like for people to call you out for "talking weird" over and over again, not able to wrap their heads around why the fuck you would choose more archaic or technical or formal words than the simpler ones that surely come to everyone's minds first. What it's like to have to dedicate a sizable chunk of attention to filtering through every single word you say out loud in real time before you say it, to make absolutely sure that it isn't a word people will judge you for using or make fun of you for using, just so you'll have a chance of being taken seriously. Learning through trial and error how to filter out the words that other people don't think are normal or casual enough for the conversation, even though for you, the word choice that's "natural-sounding" enough for them is the third or fourth word you came up with when searching for the right way to phrase something in your head. I wish I could explain just how long it takes to say fucking anything after spending a lifetime doing that during every single conversation, and how repetitive and long-winded you end up being when you spend so long coming up with alternative ways of saying every little thing you ever think. And I wish people realized that, at the very least for autistic people and autistic-coded characters, speech that's seen as pretentious is really just the way they talk when they're not putting in the extra effort to filter through every word they say just so others will take the time to listen.

#ford meta #actuallyautistic #everyone go read the wikipedia page for 'stilted speech' right now #long post #ford isnt very good at masking. he doesn't have the kind of (unintentional) autistic coding that is Palatable To Neurotypicals. #definitely looking-too-deeply-at-a-kid-cartoon right now but in *some* ways. a world where the majority of people think its easy to like an #-understand ford is a world that would feel safe for me to unmask in. #i truly truly hate that fully explaining my thoughts on ford requires me to say so much about myself. but god is it such a crime- #-to use a fictional character as a lens through which to try and explain to people how to be more understanding and accepting- #-of things like this. #making fun of stilted speech is so normalized that people don't even realize they're making fun of someone for being weird. #people think its Someone Thinking They're Better Than You but its something people lay awake at night wishing they could stop doing. #and yet they still end up using the Wrong Words and being labeled a Pretentious Asshole just for talking differently than the norm. #maybe there really are people out there who deliberately use big words to try and sound smarter than everyone else. I don't know. #all I know is. in a world where its pretty obvious that people who use a discongruently complex vocabulary get made fun of for doing that. #why would someone deliberately trying to impress people do something that would only get them laughed at. #sorry for being genuine on main. as if its my fault </3

There's something about dramas like Our Liberation Notes, Call it love, Summer Strike and Tell Me that You Love me that just heal me and provide me with so much comfort.

#i would add my mister to the list too even thought it was a little too gut wretching to watch. #all these dramas hold a very special and very dear space in my heart #something about the slow moving and mundane but raw and true emotions provoked by the characters speak to me #i find pieces of myself scattered all throughout these dramas #please recommend me anymore that you might think id like!! #also the male leads in these dramas are truly the greenest flags #its so hard to find someone who truly understands and speaks my langauge of hurt and pain and love but watching these dramas makes me feel #less alone and that is why i'll cherish them as i continue this silly journey called life #kdrama #kdramas #melodramas have my heart #i forgot to add soundtrack 1 to the list!! #rant #my liberation notes #call it love #tell me that you love me #summer strike #my mister

ah yes, she's concerned about the aggressor and attacker who was invading them six months ago. something is wrong with the empire right now, poor edelgard; whatever could've happened to her? :(

like... what. why do you care about what's going on with her specifically when she's the person who made the decision to invade leicester? does the whole war just mean nothing to marianne? it's just totally fine that all those people died in a war edelgard started? poor edelgard, something happened to her after she started her attack? you're concerned about the leader who gave the order to attack your home?

hopes has stupid lines but this one is top tier of the top tier and just an excuse for more edelgardjerking from the writers.

#DCB Three Hopes Run #like no sorry if someone attacked the country i live in and then suddenly their army was a mess #i would /nooot/ be concerned about the leader who ordered an invasion of my home #you'd never see a character being like wow i sure am worried abt dimitri and claude #who are just defending themselves and fighting for their lives out there #but here we get marianne being worried abt the person who declared war on her people #this game tries so so SO hard to make edelgard seem justified and doing a good thing #and also has tons of characters being like wow i sure do just want the best for her #like no i would not want the best for someone who invaded my country unprovoked #being worried abt the civilians in the empire is one thing bc the imperial army was out of control #but just wanting edelgard specifically to be okay? uhhhh. seems like this was just #the only way the writers could keep it in their pants without having shez make a sex joke at edelgard like byleth can #like does marianne not realize the end goal here was to defeat and thus kill edelgard? #it doesn't happen bc of the plot bc thales' magic and yadda yadda #but ultimately without that happening she would've had to be killed to be truly defeated #she's not like claude who would prioritize survival. she would fight to the end #like if you're that concerned about the person who started this war then why are you fighting against her? #either join her side or stay out of the war. really don't understand why anyone from leicester in ag would be worried abt her #they can't even use the classmates excuse bc they weren't even classmates for that long (and it's a stupid excuse even in gw) #but like no rly this game just has ppl love up on edelgard for absolutely no reason #she comes in and starts killing their soldiers for her conquest and marianne six months later is like wow i sure am concerned abt her!! #literally like imagine someone from crimea being like ''im concerned abt ashnard''

what i think is the reason I'm Just Ken is a good/as popular as it is is because the way it somehow explores both what its like to be a woman and man just through ken.

like the line "I'm just Ken. Anywhere else I'd be a ten." just feels very hitting as a woman in a social media world, especially if you've seen the truerateme subreddits and the ways they judge women.

and of course the fragility and inability to find meaning/self worth outside of a romantic relationship due to the strict boxes placed on men and male relationships (and even friendships between men and women).

theres more and i know im getting annoying with the barbie posts but i did really like the movie, regardless of how "bland" its feminism is. also just all the chronically online feminists complaining about how basic it is, like oh should we tell everyone? Should we throw a party? should we invite andrea dworkin.

like is it perfect? no. does it lack in intersectionality and have poc characters act as the support to white characters? yes. should ken probably of apologized? yeah. but many things can be true about one movie.

#barbie #barbie spoilers #tiktok feminists hate me cause i dont think this movie is “impossible for men to understand” or “not for men” #once again no gender will be free unless all genders are free #also the way r*dfems are instantly trying to make some gender critical gender essentialist take from this movie #once again i wanna state the movie is not perfect!!!!! but truly women cant do anything without someone barking at their ass #cause you know who was moved by this movie? the mothers who took their daughters because they both grew up playing with barbies #and ended up watching a movie that they saw themselves in more than they expected #also all the people being like “when it was the kendom the barbies were treated like objects but in barbie land the kens were just ignored” #and its like? yeah the kens were also treated like objects? half the kens jobs were just be at the beach #and they were really only there to fill the ken part of barbie and ken #also like either they all dressed the exact same and like half were just shirtless/had open shirts most the time #is it one to one #no #but cmon #r*dfems literally fully believe women are pure beings who can never do bad things while men are inherently evil like women can sexualize me #is the sexualizing of men the exact same as women? no. but barbieland is not the real world #no “you must hate waffles” shit under here you will get blocked

as I'm going back over my past history and items and journals and years, I come across all sorts of things, like the pencil I saved from that so-precious memory from second grade, and a pair of flip flops I've been missing for two years, and (tw for murder/crime/killings) the modern-high-school-AU-kidnapped-by-a-serial-killer story I wrote in late high school jdfsjdfsjkjlksfd

#i can't wait to find out what red flags I didn't see in my own self back when I last read this thing in 2015 hfdhfdhjsfd #also. there's gonna be like a good sentence here and there and then CRINGE. the whole rest of everything is just me still trying to copy th #breathing pace (essentially) and ways-of-describing-things of mainstream authors like I thought I was supposed to #so this'll be somewhat painful but also god what a joy and a gift and an honor and a delight to get to hold this close to my heart #and witness it with understanding and empathy and slow reflection and care like my past younger self deserves #i'm so lucky i'm alive to be here and do this #i'm so grateful i'm headed towards welcoming back and embracing the last little girl i was that still felt a lot of things #so excited for her focus and precision and tenacity and constant curious joy and movement to be back someday #i'm afraid people won't like the me i was before rule after rule and then dangers #but my god it'll feel so good to be the fully-flowing energy machine and dance and conduit again how will I have enough bother to care? #people who are good to each others' nervous systems cumulatively feel better and better #if i'm not good for you and yours then you really truly SHOULD go elsewhere and find someone who makes YOUR self feel right and light + war #anyway now that i wrote an essay in the tags as usual [nervous laughter] #personal #add to journal #words n rhythm #WHY DID I FEEL CAPABLE OF UNDERTAKING A STORY LIKE THIS #cradling my past self gently but also BANGING my HEAD against the WALL lmao #i'm proud of myself for writing and sharing this and its creative ideas. even if i don't like it now or feel ashamed or see mistakes. #anything. it mattered that it came to me and it mattered that i explored it and it mattered that i poured myself through it to help shape i #and it mattered that I left it on the internet so that now it still exists. i'm going to honor this story no matter what current me would #objectively think about it if it was written by anyone else. #this is a gift i give myself now. #this is a lot of what I learn and learn to do #trauma evolution #mosswrites

shadow and zelda were literally sooooo funny nobody understands how much their final interaction makes me lose it. zelda was like "idk yknow i just really think you could be a good guy if you wanted. just saying." and then she gets fucking kidnapped by the dark cloud and shadow is IMMEDIATELY like Thank You For Saying Something Nice To Me. I Will Now Kill Myself To Save You. and then he doesn't even stay dead

#the thing about shadow is that he doesn't quite understand what love is at all and yet he is so full of it that he #attaches himself like a leech to anybody who acknowledges his existence as a person #like he is absolutely a villain who worked so very hard on his crimes and had an absolute blast doing them. but his loyalties were swayed #the moment he started considering vio a friend. and they changed permanently the second he was dragged out of the mirror by ganon #while begging him to not have to go back out into the light (which of course ganon denied) and zelda looked down at him all sopping wet and #pathetic and still told him she thought he was a hero too. despite everything. #and in that moment whether zelda knew it or not she became shadow's friend. and what is shadow willing to do for his friends #as evidenced by his 'friendship' with vio? overthrow ganon and vaati both. and what is he willing to do for someone who was #genuinely and truly kind to him even when by all rights they shouldn't be (ESPECIALLY when he's as weak and vulnerable as he was at that #moment)? overthrow ganon and vaati by Any Means Necessary. #what does it matter if he dies? zelda told him he was a hero too and if she believes in him then that's all the encouragement he needs #to actually act as one. #anyway. flailing around like a fish out of water. do you see how funny they are #fsa #txt

When "he would not fucking say that" escalates to "did we even read the same book?????"

#i have just x'ed out of an svsss fic because it was...truly and genuinely astonishing to me to find a fic writer #who understood Luo Binghe so little and yet was writing SVSSS fic #I feel like I have never understood Shen Yuan more incidentally #what could be more in line with Shen Yuan's personality than wanting to write an extensive comment about someone not understanding Binghe? #shen yuan is fictional but nevertheless we are high fiving #and it was to facilitate shen jiu apologism too!!!! it was a fic where Binghe found out about SY's transmigration and was like #I hate you. I want my real Shizun back. give me SJ that's who I thought I married #broooooo. broooo. if you are picturing a world in which Luo 'has been fervently imagining himself as Shizun's wife since age 17' Binghe #Luo 'I literally don't care what happens to the world I just want Shizun to love me' Binghe #chooses anybody but SY #then I am just shrugging at you. I am so so baffled by you. bro

Obsessed with the dynamic (not romantic, not platonic, but a secret third thing--both and yet neither) between two characters who knew and cared about each deeply years ago when they were both younger and life was much less complicated.

But then, tragic, transformative circumstances separated them. Assuming that this separation was certainly permanent, because how could it not be?

And yet, somehow finding each other again years later, and sometimes they aren't sure whether the reunion that they once longed for with every fiber of their beings is a blessing, a curse, a joke, or a punishment.

Because they've both changed in the intervening years--largely because of the hellish circumstances that caused their separation. They've both changed completely and irrevocably, even if one of them has changed much more noticeably and dramatically than the other to the point of seeming a complete stranger. It is about leaning to see and appreciate all the things that have changed about the other and all the things that have not changed. It's about learning to reconcile beloved, often rose-tinted memories with the complex, yet-equally-compelling reality of the person those memories are about.
