hey man. i'm just saying. why would we put inexperienced teenagers with over-inflated egos and obvious emotional issues into combat classes and make them claw their way to the top of their dorms and expect things to just run smoothly. who actually thought this
#the reason rsa doesn't have overblots is because they understand the joy and whimsy of life and friendship btw#LIKE. why is there no school counselor?? do you know how much time & resources & effort & TRAUMA we could have saved the students &#school from if ANYONE had reached out to riddle and was like 'hey are you alright i heard xyz and i wanted to let you know...' ESPECIALLY#since TREY LITERALLY TELLS US 'oh well here's the lowdown on her trauma this is Probably what is causing this'#or if someone sat down to tell leona 'hey! i'm rooting for you in ur magift(?) game! you're my fav player!!' AND LET HIM FEEL NOTICED#or if someone approached azul as an Equal to try to stop his plans. as a friend even. BEYOND A BUSINESS TRANSACTION#or if ANYBODY BUT ESPECIALLY KALIM was like 'jamil i think you should follow your passions and do something you enjoy today!!' or AT LEAST#let him know he was appreciated as a person NOT JUST FOR HIS WORK#'i know you're doing a lot today but i just wanted to thank you for how much Effort you put into this and..' etc etc etc#ERM.. IF ANYONE TREATED VIL LIKE A HUMAN BEING AND NOT A CELEBRITY??? or even 'hey i loved you in this film i was wondering if we could#do a play together or something..!!' AND LET HER TRY A TYPE OF CHARACTER SHE NEVER GOT THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE. and sing her praises.#if anyone reached out to idia beyond a 'hey the teacher said to come to class'/'get out of your bed and come to our housewarden meeting'#or even. IF ORTHO HIMSELF was like. 'you know it's not your fault... you didn't cause all of this. not really' OR SOMETHING#or if malleus ever got to experience a small firsthand loss AND WAS COMFORTED THROUGH IT. not just quick fix via magic. not replacing. just#GRIEVING SOMETHING??????? and wasn't feared by literally everyone#um. maybe the real twisted part is that all of this tragedy was easily preventable if we had a support system in place.#but idk. twst is a highschool. there's no support in real high school either. i'd probably overblot too if i could ajdjrjfinfdndjd#twst#chatter#LONG RAMBLE SORRY#yes overblots are essential to the plot. but also. do you know how frustrating it is watching the blot build up and sitting in silence.#I'M SORRY IK IF SOMETHING LIKE THIS WAS HAPPENING TO A GUY I JUST MET I WOULD PROBABLY NOT NOTICE.. but of it was my Friend or Housewarden..#I'D ASK BRO.... I'D ASK ... UGHHHHHUUUHHHH#not that anyone would notice if *I* was about to lose it tbh#speaks volumes about our society o think#OKAY NOW I'M DONE FOR REAL

seriously where do people buy clothes... i have had no luck at thrift stores near me (i've tried going for years there's nothing) and VERY occasionally will find something at a secondhand store/website but it's really hard. maybe im too picky or dont really know what i want but i straight up don't know where to shop. does anyone else feel like that too? like is there just nowhere to buy clothes these days?? also none of this is helped by the fact that im like 5'1 and chubby and have big boobs...

gonna ramble abt tears of the kingdom for a quick minute (spoilers btw)
So, i don't really post much about Tears of the Kingdom (or zelda in general) all that much on here, but i just wanted to get all this out my head.
totk is a fantastic fucking game man. the gameplay, the music, the artstyle, it's all fucking fantastic. but the thing that really lets me down is the story. or lackthereof.
I wanna talk about the final boss for a quick minute. The final boss fight feels really fucking epic. the fight. the atmosphere. the MUSIC. It's all fucking fantastic. but it feels as if something is missing. what's my motivation for actually killing this guy. what's his motivation for killing me? Ganondorf feels very different in this game. I feel as if i don't have a personal connection like i did in previous games. The most Link has to deal with is meeting this guy like once and then you go and fight him. I'm sat there like WHERE'S THE MOTIVATION.
yeah, you can tell me that Ganondorf is gonna destroy the world and shit, yeah he's the Demon King(tm) or whatever, but that just feels like some label to me. who actually is this guy and what is his motivation for killing Link? yeah, he was told like a million years ago that some guy called link was gonna kill him and stop his dastardly plans, but to go through the process of Dragonification, literally destroying his body, mind and soul, just to kill One(1) twink that has a magic sword and that he met ONCE very briefly, it seems like overkill to me. and to go through all this and have so much hatred for link, who's just gonna curb stomp him anyways?? WHY, what is the fucking reason???
I suppose you could say this about Twilight Princess. You don't actually hear of Ganondorf until about 3/4 of the way through the game and you don't fucking meet him until the very end boss fight and vise versa. This guy doesn't know who link is lmfao, some farm boy and a weird looking thing is about to square go you. But that version of Ganondorf is the same guy that got grassed on by Link 100 years ago. tp link is that kids descendant, so there's a connection there. totk Ganondorf is just some old guy that is completely disconnected from the lore of the three goddesses and shit. he doesn't posses the Triforce of Power. he posses some "secret stone" that isn't so secret. there's nothing connecting Link to Ganondorf in this game, whereas, before, it was the triforce and demises curse.
there's no motivation, no connection and it leaves a pretty fucking epic fight feeling pretty empty. I think disconnecting Link from the main story of the game was a pretty poor move. i want to experience a story, not be told it.
I mean, being told a story can have it's impacts. for example, finding out that the light dragon is actually zelda. finding that out fucking destroyed me man. i felt empty and sad after watching that cutscene, but because i was told the story, i ended up just piecing it together myself. Now, imagine the impact of finding that out if i got to experience the story. it'd be 10x worse.
then actually, it turns out zelda's alright in the end and it's like??? Well. okay then. i didn't actually do anything to save her, some ghosty fuckers did. Like, what is Link's impact here? i would've loved it if i got to do it myself.
And being shown that scene where zelda transforms into the light dragon and feeling fucking DISTRAUGHT, not wanting to move anywhere or do anything and link is just ??? okay that's fine then, lets get on with it. there's no personal connection to anything that happens in the story and it makes me sad.
Like i've said, the actual gameplay of totk is amazing. i blasted through 12 hours of the game in one sitting when i first played it. it's got amazing mechanics, beautiful music and the graphics and artstyle is to die for. but the story is just not there for me. i can't feel connected to it whatsoever.

well fuck. i layered like three sports bras and put on a more clingy fabric shirt I've been wanting to wear but haven't been comfortable in and goddamn it felt so much better like i felt genuinely better about how i looked. i took it off immediately because one I can't risk my family finding out and two its cold outside so i prefer my hoodie. But anyways yeah i'm pretty sure i'm nonbinary (/gen) and will eventually have to face that fact so thats... fun(/sarc)

I love Spies Are Forever.
It's my fav musical ever and simply my fav thing ever. I can't help but think abt it 24/7 and I think everybody should watch it.
I love the music, the characters, the cast, the story but I think one of the things I appreciate the most is that curtwen is canon.
Like, how crazy is that? The main romance is between two men, one of them being the main characters, and that's not even something the fandom made up. (Although on the subject of the fandom, I adore literally everything created for it. I eat up everybody's creations cause ur all so fucking AMAZING)
And I really do appreciate that the Tin Can Brothers did that; they didn't have to, nobody forced them to do it.
They just did it. And Lord did they do it well.
They leave little hints for you to pick up on if your really looking for them, but they allow you to fully form ur own opinion on Curt (and Owen ig) before revealing he's gay. I adore how they trick you a little bit and follow the bond stereotype with his love interests before flipping it on its head.
Before it was revealed Curt was gay, I kinda just accepted him ending up with Tatiana. I didn't question it, I just kinda went along with it.
But I like that 'Doing This' just makes you go, Why? Why are they a good couple? They barely know each other and there's nothing particularly grabbing abt a romantic relationship between them, it's simply because that's the "norm", like the song says: "I'm a girl", "I'm a guy", "It's meant to be because we're both spies." Honestly, as a lesbian I'm almost disappointed in myself that I gave into it so easily and I think that it says a lot about me personally.
I also really appreciate the cast, specifically Mary Kate and Joey, but even more specifically Curt (as in the actor)
(This paragraph refers to the actor) Curt played his character amazingly. I don't exactly know what Curt's sexual orientation is and that's none of our business, but regardless I really appreciate that he didn't lean into stereotypes. His character is so much more complex than just simply being gay. The character cares for his family, friends and job, but he also has his flaws yet very easily none of these flaws have anything to do with his sexuality. I just really appreciate this.
And finally Curtwen. What a beautiful, gut wrenching, horrible relationship. There's so much of their relationship there, we don't even need Owen to be there for the whole musical for us to know how deep this relationship was. Things such as "spy again", the hallucinations and Curt's heart to heart with Tatiana, we're able to fully understand that Curt was down BAD. Owen's death shattered him and completely changed him as a person, not to mention his betrayal hurt him even more; up until the very end Curt is still trying to get Owen back, trying to convince him to join his side again.
This post has become WAY too long but to quickly summarise their interactions in Act 1 Part 1, was that gay or what? The hug? The dance? THE LINGERING LOOKS? I cannot make this shit up.
But basically, Tin Can Brothers and EVERYBODY involved with Spies, I adore you and appreciate you all so much ❤️❤️

Happy New Years my flight rising friends and to all the new people who have joined this blog this year. Over 600 of you now! Wow!
Next year I plan to try my best to provide image descriptions for the work I post. I would like to do my part to make this blog at least a bit more accessible. If anyone has suggestions about describing FR dragons I’m all ears.
Next, I know I said this in the tags of the last reblog, but just to put it here again in writing the next thing I will be doing is to continue the monthly illustrations I started doing last year.
It was a resolution that broke on the 5th month last year but considering the massive upheaval in my life starting end of March I’m honestly still proud of lasting like I did.
I’m still suffering from the physical consequences the stress took on my body this year but I am going to try anyway. I will be doing my best just to have fun with the challenge.
Doing those illustrations gave me an immense amount of happiness last year not only because I saw massive improvement with each piece I drew, but because the slow paced nature of my art challenge gave me a routine and a deadline that forced me to engage with my hobby and disconnect from the internet. I want to draw, not get so wrapped up in work or doom scrolling or spending the whole day on video games.
I am hopeful and excited for this year to be much better than the last.
So with that little ramble out of the way let me say it again,
Happy new year.

I’m sorry I need to rant for a minute; why do people think it’s okay to touch artwork in a gallery, especially after being told not to??
I work at a gallery on my college campus and we just had our second reception for our current show (the artists have unfortunately passed and today was easier for the family to stop by but Thursdays are best for students) and the way not only kids but grown adults have no respect for the artist or the work is astonishing. I had these kids (one way maybe 10 the other was early teens) touching and picking up some of the 3D pieces so I kindly told them that we would appreciate it if they didn’t touch the artwork. What did they do? They not only went to touch the work again (their parents stopped them) but they went over and began touching other works! Like one of them was legit knocking on the frames! The dad had to actually pull his wife away from one the works because SHE was going to touch one.
Not to mention another woman started touching one of the pieces and I’m already stressed because not only are the works thousands of dollars but some of them can be easily taken or broken.
Like I don’t understand how hard it is for people to understand that they can’t touch artwork being displayed unless it says otherwise. Maybe I’m biased because I’m an art major and I love going to galleries but you’d think it was common sense??? Apparently not I guess??? And like, I can understand if the kids aren’t aware of gallery etiquette, they’re curious and typically their immediate reaction is to touch stuff but that’s why the parents are there to tell them not to. But I can’t excuse adults touching things they aren’t supposed to; like you should have the common sense and respect to know not to touch artwork that isn’t your own. It’s ridiculous to me that people feel like they can do this and think it’s okay.
Not to mention that half the people who came in didn’t even want to come for the art they came for the reception food! Like the family that came in and was touching shit stopped in like three times just to take our food, but we’re so busy making sure nothings being stolen or anything that we can’t keep an eye on every individual person. And this was the end of the night, so we’re all tired and should have closed like an hour before this happened so we’re also trying to finish clean up so we can leave.
Idk, I just don’t get how people can be so disrespectful and do it right in front of not only the staff but the family of the artist as well. It’s disrespectful to us, disrespectful to the family who was kind enough to let us share the art, and it’s majorly disrespectful to the artist especially because he’s passed away.

HE WOULD NOT FUCKING SAY THAT !!!!!!!!! NEITHER OF THOSE THINGS !!! HE WOULDNT SAY EITHER OF THOSE THINGS !!!!!!!! GODDAMN (of his first sentiment) HE WOULD NOT FUCKING BE CASUALLY TRANSPHOBIC TO HER LIKE THIS. TO ANYONE. literally one of the things that draws me to niles so much is that like,, notwithstanding his manipulation and further villainy, he is genuinely very accepting. among the team that HE FORMED are the mentally ill, the disabled, etc.. literally the whole point of the team is that they are different and unique and function differently than normal average people. so the LAST thing he would be is transphobic. especially openly and casually like this. and especially right to the person's face!!! oh my fucking god!!!!!! (of his second sentiment) yes, niles' confidence in his own wit is the heart of his villainy, and he has given insults before if someone doesn't understand him, but he doesnt say that to people directly.he would definitely be more patronizing about it. ESPECIALLY WITHOUT A SNARKY EXPRESSION LIKE THEY GAVE HIM !!!!! niles is not snarky ..!!!!! rather, he is condescending!!!!!! + him telling her "you dont appreciate intelligence" is pointless because, in his vanity, he would already think that about her, so he wouldn't be telling her. to use an actual example insult from him, expressing this same sentiment, "you really must stop acting the part of the baffled-but-good-hearted layman, people will begin to believe you" like,, that's condescending, and non-direct. that's how he would word it.

The anger I feel listening to Would've, Could've, Should've is insurmountable. I'm 19, and just view myself as such a kid. Like it's always really weird and gross to me when older people view me as a full adult, because I'm really not! I can't legally drink. My brain isn't fully developed. I'm more mature than I was as a younger teenager, but I'm still missing so much life experience. It kills me that Taylor dealt with so much at my age. She was a kid. I'm glad she is able to look back and acknowledge that her childhood was taken from her and that she was taken advantage of. I hope she's healed from all her teenage self endured.

You ever randomly just have to go limp like you actually have to work to move your body but randomly so you could be washing your hands like normal and your just struggling to lift them or your eating and now lifting your spoon and swallowing has become a chore or like you just feel like something is wrong your uncomfortable and can’t stay still you have to do something but your too tired to do it and now your getting up to get a snack because you have to just be hungry or something but instead you stare inside the fridge while heavily fidgeting now your walking in circles trying to figure out what to do go back to where you were laying down but now your basically restless but instead of being able to tell anyone about and be taken seriously your dad just goes “ah your doing your looking at where all the food is only to not eat anything” because your a picky eater which is actually really annoying cause I can’t eat anything without gagging and will literally hate well liked foods or just have a headache but you can’t ask for help because it’s 2 am and everyone will be mad if your awake but you don’t know why you hate sleeping but while it feels good it also feels like a waste of time and you could be making your life useful in that time your using to lay down and have stupid dreams about what happened that you never remember or you do remember and they’re burned in your brain and now everything hurts, you know?

I love teaching, I really do. I love my job, I don’t want to do anything else.  
But. It’s just. (bitter rambling under the cut) 
I just wish I could get paid more than 12k a year (if I’m lucky) for it, you know?
And while 12k is the income of ““lucky”” (Sept/Oct-to-June full hours contract) “temps”, which I have been for the last two years and pray I’ll keep being for the foreseeable future... a middle school tenured teacher in Italy, something I’ll become in oh, seven, ten years if I’m lucky? makes a little more than 20k which. is not great either. 
In no part of the country and especially not where I live.   
I can’t go live on my own even if I want to. I could book this summer holiday only because the NHS paid for the cures, otherwise I wouldn’t have gone. 
And yet. Do you know how common “Teachers work only 18 hours a week and even dare to complain about their income!” is, to the point that even some friends thought it was something they could say to my face and expect my agreement?
