I think she just want me to redeem her, not morally, but people deserves peace. Her son couldn't (not skill issue, the vibe is just like i mean...unless it's for jokes because they both are good but complete opposite approach (not in a lol country lol metal kind of thing. Ironically no, the problem with melodist metalers is that all believe their name is wolfgang or something, buf it's not and the kid would have been too angry to pay attention)

okay so i was thinking of a joke earlier about how in DPDC Amity Park's slogan "a great place to live" is not only city propaganda but also the city lording it over the rest of America for being normal. But then I remembered that, despite how many DCU Cities with heroes in it there are, the amount of cities in America without heroes still far outnumber the amount of cities in America WITH heroes.

So I did a little digging so the joke would still land. Something most heroes have in common is that they operate in major cities. What makes a major city? I found that the general consensus is that the population is roughly over or around a million. THEN I looked up the populations of cities in the DCU that I thought of off the top of my head. So Gotham, Metropolis, Starling City, Central City, Jump City. All of them ranked up to millions in population (most of them were in the tens of millions).

Amity Park's wikipedia describes it as being similar to specifically Philadelphia, Chicago, and San Francisco.

Philadelphia's Population: 1.576 million as of 2021 Chicago's Population: 2.697 million as of 2021 San Francisco: 815,201 as of 2021

Whiiich means that Amity Park if we take that from canon, is probably a major city. There are approximately 19,000 cities in America with probably less than a hundred that are major cities. Adding the DCU major cities wouldn't skew the data too much.

Which MEANS that I can make the joke that Amity Park's "great place to live" is not only just typical city propaganda, but also its Amity Park lording it over the other major cities for being one of the only major cities that doesn't have problems bad enough to warrant a superhero or a vigilante. Cue stage left the Fentons and Phantom :)

Amity Parkers were probably SO proud that they didn't need a superhero. They didn't have to worry about things like 'world ending threats' and 'super-powered individuals' and 'staggering property damage'. And then enter Fentons.

It also could be used as an excuse for why nobody took notice to Amity Park getting ghosts if folks like me aren't huge fans of the notion of a media blackout via Tucker, Technus, or the US Government. Or if you want to keep Amity Park as its urban city self. Amity Park's news on ghosts gets drowned out in a week because there's news on more popular, well-known cities going on every other day. The shit going on in Amity Park is every other major city's regular Tuesday and it gets filtered as such.

#dp x dc #dp x dc crossover #dpxdc #dpdc #plus amity suddenly going 'we have ghosts' could be seen as a case of city-wide FOMO finally hitting so nobody believes them #and thats if the belief of ghosts not being real is as strong as it is in dp canon #the media blackout could also be /city-induced/ too #where amity parkers are so proud of being 'normal' and 'not having superheros' that many of them try and deny the existence of Phantom #and the mayor and news sources themselves just. stubbornly refuse to let news of ghosts get out to the other cities #do you know how much shit they'll get?? they'll be a laughingstock! #gothamites would never leave them alone. neither would central city or the metropolitans or starling city or-- #the other big cities will make fun of them :( #my new favorite hc that stemmed from this is that every major city in the dcu is rivaling with each other #there's a lot you can experiment with this idea imo lmao #this whole post sums up my writing and thinking process pr well tbh #this stemmed because im making a childhood friends au short story doc and wanted to avoid the typical tropes about how AP went undetected #from the rest of the US. bc. im not a fan of the media blackout idea via tucker/technus/gov and i wanted to keep AP an urban city #so i had to come up with something else #hence me looking into DCU cities and how many there are and realizing that there is a decent amount of other cities other than the main #popular ones and being DELIGHTED because then i could use that as an excuse for why amity went overlooked. bc there are many cities with #heroes in it. so its not surprising if another city gets a hero TOO. plus the news also focusing on more popular heroes and cities so again #the news of amity getting a hero gets drowned out by whatever new thing the JL or someone from the JL did that week

imo Leo has every right to be prideful about his appearance because if I had red stripes over my eyes, I’d make my face a personality trait too

#rottmnt #rottmnt leo #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rip to the other tmnt variations that are also sliders but don’t have the stripes #unironically i think leo’s design is the best in the series for the stripes alone ngl #immediately drew me to his character #like i love each and every tmnt bro there is no one who is bad and y’all can fight me on that #but rise leo just LOOKS the best imo #he’s got the one benefit that p much no one else in the series has: something more than a mask to make his face stand out #plus the blue and red look so sick frfr #bros the face man for a REASON #ok but like side note i really love the character designs in rise in particular #but also like…every set of turts per series has such a specific and special style that are ALL GOOD #(but red stripes win out) #(like those are built in eyeliners c’mon) #i will say i also really love 2012 Mikey’s freckles they are Very Cute #and i also love love love when the characters have tooth gaps it’s always cute

Honestly one of my favorite ship dynamics that I never see folks talk about is where they're just... Orbiting each other like satellites. A deep closeness, but not quite something explicitly romantic. Everyone around them has conflicting opinions on their relationship, but they never label it. Heartfelt declarations of trust, love, and friendship are non negotiable

#gopher rambles #ship dynamics #so many ships fit this imo #superbat #k/s #or if you'd rather call it #spirk #and i personally see #subscorp #that way. feel free to talk about your own faves like this #because its great. it always makes me feel so good. theres something about that deep affection and fondness #that trumps any regular 'falling in love' fics. more than friends but not in a romance centric way #they're best friends your honor. they are of one soul your honor. their love is deeper and more complex than you could understand your honor

[silver-horse]

unfortunately I have opinions about the ascendant astarion ending and I have been holding back from saying it. but it's a problem that applies to the whole game and it's been annoying me

what's actually weird about the ascendant "romance" scene is that the writer considers it a tempting option for the player. They wrote it to be bad, but they also think it's a fun and sexy option. Same goes for the haarlep scene which they also wrote that way because they find it sexy. Except finding this sexually appealing entirely hinges on the idea that the player is a submissive. So RIP to a scene that the rest of us could have found sexy because the lead narrative designer was a submissive. lmao

In this game you can have a scene where you have to kneel for a male character. But you can never have a male character do the same for you. (Halsin doesn't count. It's a vanilla scene, he is not submissive there and we are not even asking/telling him to kneel down) You don't get such options, not even if you play a drow female! RIP the number one reason for playing drow female to be honest. lol You can kneel and fully submit to ascendant astarion or fully submit to mizora or fully submit to haarlep or submit to lae'zel or submit to minthara. you can get whipped by abdirak or you can tell him "touch me and lose a hand" he even responds positively to this remark and yet the possibility to flip the dynamic doesn't exist. There is never an option where a male character truly submits to the player. RIP to a scene that would have been the opposite of the traditional dynamic. the potential that existed but they never used the opportunity

By the way, how interesting that Lae'zel is dominant but she is a woman so ofc you get the option to tell her “no you will submit to me”. You never get such switch options with any of the male characters... Obviously it's not ascendant where they could have made that an option. My point is that it's NEVER an option among so many male characters.

It's a cool idea that the bad ending in a romance means "I saw this character as a sex object" except it falls apart when the scene is very sexually unappealing to anyone who is more dominant leaning. If I see a character as a sex object then I would place them in sexual situations which are appealing to me. so the message doesn't quite work. because there isn't anything that I can selfishly choose for myself just because I like it and I find it sexy.

#it's the old traditional setup where male characters are never submissive. either vanilla or they are dominant. and no other options exist. #I just find it a bit funny how they seem oblivious to the fact that these scenes being “sexy”and tempting entirely hinge on the possibility #that the player has the same tastes but a LOT of us don't. and then these scenes aren't even remotely sexy #don't get me wrong it's cool to have these scenes in the game but there could have been something different as well #rather than the same dynamic multiple times. and if you are super not into that then you only have the vanilla options #meanwhile the subs get multiple ''fun'' scenes. I just find this very unequal. if you are not into that well your character #will be placed into situations where characters make these unappealing propositions and sometimes it's fight or submit. that's weird imo #for a game that has storylines about consent. sexually weird scenes would be fine and interesting if it wasn't SO unequal and always the #same dynamic where they mostly give players options where our female characters should submit and NEVER the opposite I will always be salty #bg3 #larian studios #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 mine #haarlep #astarion #my post #abdirak #my thoughts #my posts #it's like the whole reason I like to play drow women if I am honest but it's been so utterly pointless #as a drow female on a rare occasion you may be allowed to say a barely rude dialogue to males and that's all lmfao #mildly rude to men is just what I do in real life but it's a viddy game and I should be able to be a bit of a nasty aggressive female #(sure they can frame it negatively. that's fine. but let the ''fun'' option exist for us as well)

The problem with horror comedies is that the comedy has to be funny for it to be good

#like there ARE plenty of good ones out there but theres too much of a saturation in the market of those that are Not #and i feel like a lot of the time it comes from insecurity more than anything :( #like it shouldnt matter if you dont have a huge budget or anything you just gotta make your script into something you can be confident in #and also leaning more towards slapstick over tired joss whedon-y dialogue. imo. #///

Vanessa didn't even die and yet her story is still sadder and more fucked up than jtodd's. He wishes he was on her level

#may be a controversial one but i dont care this is my house #dont think there are enough of you to get hate over this anything #anyways no she didnt die. she wasnt killed by voter poll. but like the stuff that fucked her up was so much more real than a psycho clown #like im sorry but what is “you get beat up and die” to essentially getting taken and having the bad guys confirm to you that everything you #thought about yourself in middle school was true and everyone thinks youre ugly and worthless and not special and no one loves you. and then #ofc the medical torture. like im sorry but one of these things IS worse than the other imo #especially as the teen girl in the wonder woman comic like jesus christ #and while of COURSE the stuff about diana not loving her and all that is NOT true its something we see her struggle with as insecurity for #years beforehand. and then dc goes and brings her back into continuity in the past few years only to basically say “yeah wonder woman DIDNT #care about her! what a loser to think so and get all worked up about it! abt a vers of her who only has the name in common #like she wasnt dianas baby freaking sister with 100+ appearances #blah #vanessa kapatelis #anti jason todd #she also literally did the red hood arc before he did #with the whole attacking the successor and everything #yet another woman for him to steal from lmao #(this is mostly a joke. i dont think anyone making anything about jtodd canon or otherwise even knows what a wonder woman comic is but the #comparisons are still there.)

anyone else think it's insane that folie a deux -- which literally means "the shared delusions of two"-- opens with "I'm coming apart at the seams/Pitching myself for leads in other people's dreams"

#sorry but thats an incredibly insane line to open with??? #especially because its one of the few lines outside the chorus that actually 'make sense' #and arent just kind of gibberish writing? like i dont think thats a bad thing btw and i think every line in disloyal order is amazing #but if you genuinely read over the lyrics to disloyal order most of it genuinely makes no sense in context of the song #other than the loose bolt/half doomed and semi sweet line (which acts as the thesis for the song) and the chorus #this +the few lines that come after it are really the only things that make sense in this song #kind of as if one person is coping fine while the other is losing grip on reality #shared madness of two and all. something something mania 'even at the best of times im out of my mind' #oops i did it again i forgot what i was losing my mind about kind of fits disloyal order a bit too much imo #fall out boy #fob #patrick stump #pete wentz #joe trohman #andy hurley

The mood of the day is "My battery is low, its getting dark"

#my stuff #had my suspicions confirmed that my friendship with my ex is basically never gonna be anything like what i thought and needed #its really fucking frustrating and it means that all of the warmth and attention they showed me before we were dating was- #due to their romantic interest in me rather than our connection as friends #and on top of that they're stressed out and depressed and have said they basically only trust ppl they're dating (fucked up imo) #so I'm never going to get the kind of connection i was looking for. If i wasn't waiting on something from them I would just give up on this #i'm not getting what i need. I'm barely getting anything at all. what a fucking waste of human connection #I'm exhausted emotionally and mentally and already under colossal stress with my phd and classes #i'm not gonna talk to em again until they reach out first i'm sick of fucking necromancing this and making 90% of the effort

Okay but my favorite GIR moments are ALWAYS the ones that imply he's just aware enough of what's going on to know that the thing he's doing will fuck up Zim's day, and he still does it anyway, possibly specifically for that purpose.

#invader zim #gir #iz posting #natterings #most times its not even malicious #or not like SPECIFICALLY malicious beyond gir being a gremlin who enjoys chaos in general #i think a lot of the time he just wants to secure zims attention and making him mad is the easiest way to do it #(+ i mean zim kind of models this strategy all the time so can he really be surprised girs learned it—) #or sometimes the terrible thing will eventually end up leading into accomplishing something useful #and its easy to say this is just fools luck and totally inadvertent on girs part #but there are rare moments that suggest he mightve a little bit done the thing on purpose and im obsessed with that #that one comics issue where he impersonates dib torments zim for days on end and then wheedles zim into praising him for it #lives rent free in my mind #BUT ANYWAY I ALSO THINK THAT MAYBE SOMETIMES IT COULD BE A LITTLE MALICIOUS #given that gir in his natural state isnt really CAPABLE of resentment or anger or even dislike #and the one time he was able to feel those things he turned on zim in less than 24 hrs #in a way that was clearly very personally motivated (note to self write meta about gir goes crazy and stuff i have so much shit to say) #which suggests to me those emotions probably are there festering on some inaccessible level and yknow #imo a little healthy sadism is a GREAT outlet for that #zim absolutely deserves it

his internalised homophobia flavoured cowardice etc etc but genuinely kind of obsessed with the way this is the only glimpse you really get into what yosuke has been mulling over in relation to kanji specifically over the course of like. months at this point.

#like. this in conjunction w the cut romance lines about focusing on the murders to avoid confronting himself... #idk. i just think a lot about the way theres really quite a lot of himself that yosuke doesn't show to other people #even to souji as this conversation demonstrates #and theres this interesting mix in him of self awareness and just. willful blindness at times #and snippets like this show both of those qualities imo #dwelling on something for months and months at this point and yet not being able actually articulate that in front of other people #out of like. what i see as pride and embaressment and every bit of conflict tangled up in what he recognises in kanji #and puts down in him (because recognising that u put people down to try make urself feel better doesnt automatically rid urself of that #behaviour or thought pattern or the anxieties which help underpin it) #like theres a degree of ambiguity as to what yosuke actually SAID sure but tbh what kanji summerises sounds more like a quote than like #how he would reframe something in his own words imo #anyways! forgive the yosukeposting <3 #tunes talks persona #persona 4

i think the main reason why i like one piece is that it's like dragon ball if dragon ball had good worldbuilding

#and i say this as a dragon ball fan lol #but i mean this in that both are anime that were made primarily to be funny first and foremost but developed into something bigger #except one piece dealt with this shift much better than dbz's endless saiyan transformations imo #the best feature of later one piece arcs is making the world seem much more lived in and bigger than the strawhats #one piece

something that i think would really help activism surrounding the conflict is the understanding that no matter how much you personally want it, israel is not going anywhere as a country. just like supporting land back also comes with the caveat that america is not going anywhere. these are long established countries with millions of people in them. there’s no way to disband a country of that size without sentencing the innocent people within to death, either by killing them when they refuse to leave or sending them somewhere they’ll starve because they have no resources. the best and only option, the only option if you truly want peace, is to advocate for new government leadership that will support a 2 state solution. israel isn’t going anywhere but neither are the people of gaza, with or without bibi and hamas. that’s the reality. work with what you’ve got instead of wasting your energy on a white american fantasy that has no chance of becoming a viable solution.

#g talks #a lot of leftists get hung up on how they believe it should be rather than how it is #and imo that’s what makes a lot of their activism worthless and unproductive #it’s ignoring what’s right in front of you #in favor of something that will never exist #sacrificing innocent people the entire time while claiming you hate the suffering #it’s selfish and ignorant #mine #/mobile #/okay to reblog
