Crowley, Aziraphale and McGrae's Trait Perspective.

(I have a psych test coming up this is the only way I can study.)

The first trait is Openess, which is how happy you are to experience change and new things, if you're happy to face challenges, and if you're creative. Crowley scores higher here than Az I think, especially with the magic scene where he shoots a gun for the first time and is worried about shooting Az but does it anyway. Compared to Az thinking he's going to fall for lying once. (poor baby). Az is however quite open to anything if Crowley tempts him long enough.

Conscientiousness - being well prepared, having a set structure, being detail oriented, spending time planning. I think Aziraphale more than Crowley for this one because of how well he planned the ball, and was very goal oriented with his selling of books (anything to dance with Crowley apparently). Then again Az did go to France during the revolution for crepes. (unless it was all along a secret plan to be rescued by crowley).

Extroversion- tbh they both score quite low. they don't have very developed social groups, not very many close friends, they don't particularly like new people. But Az would score higher because he likes people watching him do magic even when he fails spectacularly and he has more conversations with random humans than Crowley seems to. Although Crowleys glowering distaste for the people they do interact with might be mostly jealousy. and because he just expects to be let down by everyone - not good enough for heaven not evil enough for hell :( and now not even accepted by Az. abandoned by everyone he's ever loved and cared for.

Agreeableness- this includes trust, which Az has in God and Crowley. Affection (watch how many times he reaches for Crowley at the slightest chance.) Kindness ("I think mynexactly is different from your exactlt" - Az helps anyone even the guy that tried to kill him), Altruism, and other prosocial behaviours also come under this. Crowley ofc would get in trouble for being too nice so this makes since. (he still does try though. and then get tortured for it :/ ) but his lunched at the Ritz and trying to get Az to stay over - very affectionate

Neuroticism - Crowley all the way. Gets upset easily? mood swings? sad and anxious? (my poor child), worried about everything (reading the magic manual, fire extinguishers, hating Gabriel, etc. He isn't particularly afraid of discorporations though it seems, compared to Az-"drive slower!"-iraphale. Az is more worried about upsetting heaven though. tbh they are both very anxious.

The writers I think mostly completely by accident with the assistance of James charming his way into becoming a main character created the perfect storm to ensure people who love spike would reach absolute peak levels of being completely obsessively deranged about him forever

Season 2:

He’s a punk rock villain with killer cheekbones, enchanting eyes, and an absolutely DEVILISH smile - who’s an incredibly dedicated and dangerous fighter who specifically seeks out challenging fights he’s not guaranteed to win (brave and reckless - normally traits seen in heroes) hates everyone except his mentally ill physically sick wife (the statistics of men who leave their wives when they get sick in the US is horrifying like nurses literally have to warn married women who get sick it happens so often) who he’s hopelessly devoted to and unbelievably soft with and always listens to her while also exuding a psychotic amount of sex appeal and is just F U N he loves being a vampire and he loves fighting and it makes it so much fun for the audience. While still showing how much he respects and admires his enemy for her skill, strength, resourcefulness, and intelligence - NEVER underestimating her just because she’s a tiny blonde girl - and instead of destroying the world for love he SAVES the world for love - a villain doing good to get the love of his life back who essentially dumped him for her ex????????? D E V O T E D and shockingly extremely trustworthy??? And has amazing chemistry with our heroine and is there for a pivotal moment in her life and is the only one there for her when she has no one else????? *enemies to lovers girlies ENTER THE CHAT*

Season 3:

He shows he fucking MEANS IT when he says Dru is the love of his life when he shows up in Sunnydale because he blames Angel not Buffy or Drusilla but the man actually responsible for all their problems and he is the most pathetic mess we’ve ever SEEN!!!! He’s crying and drunk all the time and he’s so sad he goes to Buffy’s mom TO TALK 💀😭 our pathetic sensitive little self admitted lover boy who KNOWS he’s love’s bitch and he won’t be pretending he’s anything otherwise who shows how clearly he sees and understands other people and the depths of his emotional intelligence so much so Buffy herself admits she can’t fool Spike she can fool her friends BUT NOT SPIKE OR HERSELF EXCUSE ME MA’AM WHAT???????

AND Spike doesn’t just uselessly MOPE forever he gets some perspective and is like I know what I’m gonna do to her back and I’m gonna go do that now! 😁👍🏻 showing he never stays down for long and is always gonna get back up to keep fighting for his love while BOTH he and Buffy still honor the truce even though he’s broken it by coming back??? While Buffy’s all “I violently dislike you” YEAH OK GIRL WHATEVER YOU SAY *enemies to lovers girlies chomping at the bit intensifies*

Season 4:

CLEARLY heartbroken about Drusilla (DEVOTED!!!) but it’s turned into anger and resentment directed at Harmony who how bizarre looks nothing like Drusilla but A LOT like Buffy…… hmmmmmmmmmmmmm HOW INTERESTING *enemies to lovers girlies are vibrating with anticipation that turns into a full blown combustion when something blue happens*

Spike doesn’t pretend to love Harmony in order to get what he wants from her (shown in direct contrast to Parker) he’s ironically very honest despite being a villain - he’s showing he’s STILL loyal to Drusilla in ONLY loving her even after she’s dumped him... again!

We see Spike treat Buffy the EXACT same way he treated Drusilla during something blue reaffirming THIS IS HOW THIS MAN LOVES WHEN HE LOVES YOU. He’s extremely affectionate, helpful, protective, caring - D E V O T E D - and is truly just the most certified lover boy we’ve ever fucking seen

Season 5:

SURPRISE HE’S SECRETLY A LOVESICK MAMA’S BOY POET AT HEART UNDERNEATH THE BAD BOY PERSONA AND A PROTECTIVE BIG BROTHER AND NOW BUFFY AND HER FAMILY’S MOST LOYAL DEFENDER AND IS WILLING TO DIE NOT JUST FOR BUFFY BUT FOR ALL THE SUMMERS WOMEN AND HE KNOWS AND SEES BUFFY SO DEEPLY AND INTIMATELY AND CAN HOLD SPACE FOR HER PAIN LIKE NO ON ELSE CAN AND SHOWS THE DEVOTION THAT ONCE BELONGED TO DRUSILLA NOW BELONGS TO BUFFY AND IT IS GOING NOWHERE EVEN WHEN SHE DIES AND WE'VE SEEN IN HIM CRY BEFORE BUT NEVER HAVE WE SEEN HIM BREAK DOWN LIKE HE DOES AT THE SIGHT OF BUFFY'S BODY!!!!!!!!!!!

*all of us screaming, crying, throwing up, climbing the walls and generally just losing our minds*

Season 6:

No soul, his love is so great for Buffy as is his loyalty and devotion to her, he now helps all of his dead love’s friends fight evil and is raising her sister and dreams of saving her every night for 148 nights 🤚🏻😭 don’t even fucking talk to me I can’t take it

Forgive the absolute 180 in tone change here:

Dick game is FIRE - his touch is the only thing that makes Buffy feel alive AND SHE WAS IN HEAVEN BRO SHE KNOWS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BE IN HEAVEN AND SPIKE IS THE ONLY THING KEEPING HER GOING like damn girl yes YOU FUCK THAT HOUSE DOWN!!! Also he is now just naked 50% of the time just to drive us all even FURTHER out of our minds and somehow has just gotten even hotter as the seasons have gone on like this is what’s been hiding under the leather jacket all this time! Enjoy!

And THE MOST unintended consequence of jw’s vindictive writing:

SPITE

He clearly didn’t want us to love Spike and tried to manipulate us into hating him in such a blatant and clumsy ooc attempt all that did was weed out the weakest amongst the Spuffy/Spike fans until all that remained were us:

The most devoted and stubborn fans who REFUSED to have the thing they loved ruined or taken away from us and were smart enough to see through his bullshit manipulation attempt in the first place.

Genuinely they created the equivalent of supersoilder strength level fans with this absolutely lethal combination of events 💀

AND THEN as if all that wasn't enough he goes and gets his soul on purpose for Buffy so he can be the man she deserves and she can love him without hating herself for loving him despite the immense pain it will cause him which is the most selfless thing we have ever seen anyone do for Buffy only to be topped when he sacrifices himself to destroy the hellmouth, save the world and free her from Sunnydale!!! Plus ya know once he gets the soul even though he did it for her he never tries to use that as leverage to get anything from her like he truly expects nothing from her at all but still wants to help her and James delivers the most devastating performances we've ever fucking seen, finally tells her friends off which has needed to happen for 5 seasons, the "you're the one speech" him being a dad to all the potentials with Buffy giving us supernatural parent core who made it through their rough patch with their first kid in season 6 with Dawn and now are just the beautiful team with their found family and Buffy finally has someone who can truly carry her burdens with her and just all the tenderness and devotion they both deserve after so many years of pain and fighting. Basically giving the audience the message that even if you have a metric ton of pain and trauma there are people out there who see you and understand you and there is a chance for you to heal both together and separately to build your own version of a more normal and stable life. It's a message of such hope and I personally know several people, including myself who watched what Spike and Buffy have and it inspired us to look at the relationships we were in and realize we deserved SO MUCH MORE than what we were getting and in my case it turned out I was being emotionally abused and manipulated that entire time!! Much like Buffy was by both Riley and Angel. So it isn't an exaggeration to say Spuffy saved my life in a lot of ways both in being there for me at such a dark time and helping me draw a map of how to get out. Not to mention loving them in fandom spaces has helped me connect with so many people just like me who share very similar experiences and have helped me feel so much less alone and has helped me heal in so many ways 🖤

Spuffies get "hOw cAn yOu liKe sPiKe aFtEr wHaT hE dId" all the fucking time and truly the better question is how can you NOT like Spike???? HAVE YOU BEEN PAYING ATTENTION AT ALL??? DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT GOOD RELATIONSHIPS NEED TO WORK?? BECAUSE AT THEIR CORE SPUFFY HAS THEM ALL!

It's jw writing so NOTHING will escape his toxic bullshit but Spike - because he was hated by jw for so long - so much of the time when he tried to make Spike less popular he just kept making him better and more complex and more and more targeted to the female gaze which is exactly why he snapped and made the choices he literally forced everyone else to go along with despite their protests with that scene to make it the most traumatizing scene in all of Buffy history not just for the audience but for the actors as well because yes it is incredibly horrific and upsetting to watch (which is why I skip it on rewatches) but I still am able to see if for what it is which is a narcissist lashing out at people he hates because he hasn't been able to control them and too bad for him I refuse to be manipulated by his bullshit so it failed completely and made so many of us that much more stubbornly protective of Spike and his and Buffy's relationship not just from other fans but from the creator himself 🙃🖕🏻like he basically just trauma bonded us to Spike and Buffy which has led to the creation of one of the most devoted, loyal, intelligent fanbases who is absolutely unhinged (affectionate) with their love of this character and his relationship which is why we are all still creating and writing about this character 25 year later and show absolutely zero signs of slowing down or stopping 💀

#spuffy #spike btvs #meta #btvs meta #spike and buffy meta #spike btvs meta #spuffy meta #also every spuffy I know shares so much life experiences and personality traits with buffy herself like we are often making choices #and judgements about the narrative from the perspective of buffy herself & we’re all picking spike #so many people who pick other love interests truly so often rarely see buffy for who she is either #if you don’t get spuffy you don’t truly understand buffy herself

Ever since realising that Joey referring to Jaskier as sapiosexually connecting with Radovid was likely 100% intentional, I've literally been losing my shit over the potential implications...

Like... new headcanon!

What if Jaskier has always approached the act of having sex with someone else as a form of performance art, driven by his desire to please his "audience", and making other people passionately respond to what he's doing for them?

Like... what if what normally sexually interests him isn't so much inspired by the other person, but more by the general idea of being wanted, needed, and the anticipation of the positive feedback he might get from sexually interacting with them.

He readily experiences primary aesthetic attraction towards other people, finds them interesting, becomes curious about them, and feels instantly affectionate towards them; but he's not sexually aroused by / attracted to them, per say.

He really wants to make them feel good, and bask in that sense of intimacy, togetherness and praises he receives from being sexually involved with them (yeah, because he's that good at figuring out what pleases them, and offering it to them).

And somehow, audience response/participation tends to really inform how good or "smooth" he is when it comes to his ability to seduce someone, and convince them to become sexually intimate with him in the first place?

For example...

So... what if Jaskier is a bard and an artist through and through? Not just on stage, but in the sheets as well?

Turning sex into poetry and something very deliberate, where it's all about a sense of artistic expression, and a pure melody of various physical sensations and emotions!

Sexually? Jaskier is an artist, a creative, a free thinker... All is fair!

But it's not something that he usually feels any urge or need to engage in based on the way someone else inspires him any sudden desire to have sex with them specifically.

He loves his sexual partners, he's intrigued by them, he wants to connect with them - even if that connection lasts but a night - and sex allows him to do that.

But maybe he has no idea that sex might be experienced differently by others.

Maybe he just thinks they're like really really REALLY expressive and appreciative of the sex itself, or something, whenever he notices how hungrily some of them appear to throw themselves at him, or at each other.

Also, I've somehow always found it a bit weird how Jaskier seems to fully remain clear minded during Yennefer's magical orgy.

Yennefer comments on how Geralt seems to be immune to her spell, as if it's some kind of big deal!

But then, there's Jaskier...

He just waves at them as if he's totally unaffected by everyone else fucking each other around him, and being surrounded by a bunch of naked bodies having sex...

And/or looks like he's not quite comfortable with the way someone's hand is moving closer to his crotch at some point...

Grant it, he's slowly being suffocated to death by a Djinn's magic, and likely has other priorities than sex in mind!

But that's just the thing...

Isn't Yennefer's spell supposed to override people's ability to think rationally or fully understand what's happening? Everyone snaps out of it looking confused, and poor Jaskier just basically passes out, but he's never once looked like he stopped looking at what was happening around him from an outsider's P.O.V.

Whenever the camera cuts to him, he seems to be sharing the same reality as Geralt and Yennefer, not the kind of sexual haze everyone else appears to be happily trapped in.

Would being affected by the Djinn just make him immune to the whole "sex weed magic thingy" as well?

Or would the usual lack of primary sexual attraction towards other people make it a bit harder for Yennefer's spell to take a hold on him?

(Another headcanon theory I came up with - should Jaskier be revealed as being the direct descendant of Fjall and the Lark - would be that, perhaps, the small touch of magic in his blood would be enough to make him more resistant to certain types of spell... On top of being able to eat whatever he comes across without freaking poisoning himself, I swear!)

But yeah, let's just imagine, for a moment, that sapiosexual Jaskier would have no clue (or very little clue) of what it actually feels like to specifically be sexually attracted to someone (rather than the sex itself, and all it may represent to him) in a way where you are viscerally craving that sexual contact with that specific someone, and you feel like you might go crazy if they don't finally have sex with you.

Then, along comes Radovid, that he develops a sapioromantic and sapiosexual attraction for...

And, for a while, Jaskier thinks he's just losing his freaking mind, because there are moments where Radovid is just there, simply being all sensitive and insightful while discussing dwarven politics with Yarpen, for example...

... and poor Jaskier's never been so sexually aroused in his life!!!

But Radovid is not even technically doing anything that's supposed to be "sexually charged"!

He's fully clothed, being all smart and sensitive, talking about a topic of interest to him while having lunch by the side of the road...

...and Jaskier is just there, casually eating next to him while listening to him talk with their friends.

It's 100% casual and totally trivial, day to day stuff... No plan for Jaskier to try and seduce him and have sex there!

So, how come does he suddenly feel the urge to pounce on him and beg Radovid to just take him right here and there, in front of all their friends at camp, and it's taking all the self-control he can humanly muster not to act upon that impulse?!

Instead, Jaskier stands up, awkwardly excuses himself, and decides the best way to manage the situation is to go take a random dip fully clothed in the nearest river.

"Why?", they ask. Because he was getting hot, that's why!

And no, he couldn't just remove his clothes instead! He liked them really baggy an concealing that day, thank you very much!

As a matter of fact, he might decide to just start wearing his shirt over his pants from now on, because he's starting a new fashion trend! No other reason!

Oh...

Oh, no...

NO.

Don't you dare look at me all concerned while trying to read into my behavior, you stupid prince... Wait. Is that a smirk?

You're smirking aren't you?

How do you look like you've figured it out, when I've no fucking clue what's even going on with me?!

Great! And now the river's cool water is not even working anymore!

That's it! I'm never walking out of here again, and I hope you know it's all your fault!

No. No, don't take off your shirt and get into the water with me, that's not...

Oh? Oh! Everyone else is going and leaving us alone? Okay, nevermind! Fuck! Why's it so hard to walk while standing waist deep in water? Surely there must be a way to get to you faster...

And I'm just imagining poor Jaskier trying to ask Yennefer if Radovid might be some kind of sorcerer with latent magical abilities or something... Because, whenever he's around, there are moments where he randomly feels this overwhelming urge to make love to him, even if the context is not appropriate for delivering a sexual performance of any kind!

Like yes, it has happened to him before to have "the muses" whisper in his ear that sex with a certain someone might be good, and he's typically very open to sudden bursts of inspiration and unplanned sexual improvisation!

But that's not the same thing!

It only happens specifically with Radovid - especially when he's saying or doing something really witty, sensitive or insightful - and it's like his whole body suddenly catches fire, gets all tense and trembling with need; and being touched by him and having sex with him feels like finally being able to breathe after someone's forcefully been holding your head under water for a while...

Radovid must be bewitching him, somehow, for sure!

And Yenn is like "You know that what you've just been describing is simply what regular sexual desire feels like for most people, right?"

And Jaskier's just going:

#Jaskier #Radovid #Radskier #Sapiosexual #Sapioromantic #Sapiosexual Jaskier puts so many things into perspective and opens the door to so many new and juicy heacanons! #How the fuck did I miss this?! #Yeah for the record I still think I'm a complete demisexual idiot! #Fuck am I an idiot... #That's likely also sapiosexual so the fact that I genuinely thought Jaskier couldn't be sapiosexual is even more bewildering to me! #I guess I'm still mostly hesitating on calling myself sapiosexual because I'm not entirely sure if the way I'm exclusively attracted toward #geeks is based on how I perceive and respond to the way their intellect works... #Or to other factors like a combination of personality traits often displayed by geeks for example... #But yeah getting specifically “turned on” by your partner in the most awkward of times (ex: boyfriend is animatedly explaining to someone #how the lithium batter on their phone works while being so creatively imaginative and passionate about it) is a highly relatable experience #I've just gotten used to it... #and can manage it without going to jump into rivers now... #Jaskier will be fine! He'll get the hang of it! #My Stuff #My Posts #My Thoughts

didn't want to put this rant in the tags of that last post but honestly i feel like a lot of people hate toshiro disproportionately compared to what he actually did in-story. and if we're being real it's most likely because of racism

#xyx.txt #because so much of his misunderstanding of laios comes from a cultural angle #and because his mannerisms are strongly coded as japanese especially relative to the other characters in the story #i think a lot of people's implicit biases have them reading this as an inherent and unchangeable aspect of his being #rather than being just one aspect of him that originates from a particular context and is fully changeable #like any other trait on anyone else. #part of this is just because of the fact that the story is told from laios and his party's perspective #but i think a lot of people's perspectives on him are probably informed by racism #not all east asians are quiet and polite. i know this myself as a kind of loud and awkward and easily excited east asian person myself #but generally cultural mannerisms from east asia tend to be more subdued overall than western ones #so it's. not uncommon. for western people to read east asians as being rude or cold or aloof just for behaving like this #the 'oriental inscrutability' moment... #like he doesn't need to 'get rid of the stick up his ass'. he just needs to not put such heavy expectations on other people #but yeah i think a lot of people are way more unsympathetic to him than they would have been if he were not so distinctly asian-coded #which is ironic! a lot of people being really mad at him for ableism specifically in the social expectations he holds of others #while applying the same kind of judgment to him but through the perspective of race instead of neurodivergence. suspicious. #blah blah blah it's because he's 'neurotypical' or whatever #predicting how some of you people would behave toward neurodivergent asian people and the outlook isn't good #also if we're on the subject of microaggressions. #laios repeatedly and insistently calling him 'shuro' to the point that everyone else calls him that too #that's not 'funny autism bad with names' moment that's a racist microaggression #someone misnaming me because of my distinctly ethnic/foreign-sounding name doesn't automatically become funny and relatable #just because you're neurodivergent lol #can we maybe have more empathy toward characters and people of color in fandom #instead of always using them as punching bag side character trope #thanks.

I think that I struggle to write L because I don't know who he is beneath his masks.

Light is the protagonist, the main character, we see every decision he makes and get the reasoning behind them—his personality and mental facilities are an open book to the audience, even as he's shown to be someone who hides himself away constantly.

L is the same in that way, but we don't have that glimpse behind the curtain we do with Light. L being unknowable is what makes him so intimidating as an antagonist; you never know what he's going to do next, and you never know his true reasons for doing what he does unless someone else figures it out first. He's a big fat liar, just like Light, but unlike Light, we never get to see him be completely honest with someone.

I can write L's masks with ease, but ask me to get inside his head and give you his thoughts? I have NO fucking clue what's going on in there man.

Just like I feel like I can write Light's honest thoughts and personality with ease, but struggle a bit to write his false faces seen by someone else—it's a matter of perspective.

#death note #rambles #i dont have a point im just....expressing some thoughts #l lawliet #yagami light #like i have the same personality type as L and i share a lot of traits with him #but for some reason trying to write from his perspective is like running into a brick wall multiple times #who IS he when he's not ripping a case apart? #what does he FEEL what does he WANT #i know a lot of little things about him but dn never really gives us who he is as a whole #hes someone who needs his creature comforts but has no problem inconveniencing others #someone lacking in sympathy but not empathy #i just #*puts L in a pringles can and shakes him* WHAT ARE YOU #GIVE ME YOUR PERSPECTIVE I NEED IT TO WRITE YOU EFFECTIVELY

People can make fun of Taylor’s dance moves, song intros, scripted little movements all. they. want. She has what most performers and entertainers don’t have but wish they did!!

#the secret is that she’s the only truly dorky person who is also charismatic #that is not a combination that exists like. EVER #because dorkiness almost automatically cancels out charisma no matter what the people say #‘Oh I like her cause she’s corny’ like no that can’t JUST be true because there are SO many corny aspiring stars who simply can’t do it #it also doesn’t seem true to say of her because she’s so earnest and dorky but she’s a force of nature!!! #anyway it’s interesting to see the Haters in action at this stage #because there is (in a way) always a lot to make fun of from a cynical perspective #but at the end of the day mediocrity does not sell out stadiums like this or generate energy like this #this consistently or this steadily #she HAS it #she just does #and her charisma and her talent cancel out the embarrassment from her dorkiness #and transform it into simply an endearing trait #like there is a consistent power and presence and connection and steadiness to her whole thing #and it doesn’t Look the way sincerity looks #from a person who has the kind of non-embarrassing charm she doesn’t actually have #because she isn’t actually even charming in the way we generally apply the word charm #it’s too studied and almost too clumsy #but the solid gold of her being and work transcend that so it doesn’t matter #she’s fascinating. will think about her forever

Also, does anyone else feel like this is all Locutus related? Everything weird about Jack, the Changelings’ mysterious benefactor, Picard’s original body....

I’m just saying, I feel like this is a Locutus thing but I don’t know how common that guess is.

#star trek picard spoilers #picard spoilers #im just saying.....i dont know HOW Jack might have inherited telepathic powers from Picard that are Locutus derived somehow #or if maybe at some point someone did something to Jack that built upon something he'd inherited from Picard #that played into how the Borg created the Locutus personality or did to Picard in the first place #but from a certain perspective Jack's powers seem not to much standard sci-fi telepathy #as 'ability to created a hive mind/shared mental space with even other humans #if not any other sentient species in general' #again....not sure how or even if the Borg would have done something to Picard to make him pass this trait or ability down #to his offspring but if this is the case (and they certainly seem to be dropping the implication that Picard's #whats it called Syndrome was always misdiagnosed....not just with Jack but with he himself....aka maybe #after Locutus Picard had or was developing these powers too but they didn't 'take' as well in a full grown adult whose brain had already #developed naturally and so instead these powers presented as symptoms of that syndrome they thought he had #BUT whatever changes they made to Picard's original body that went unnoticed and thus unaltered when Starfleet 'restored him' after Locutus #still ended up passed down to Jack as part of him from his birth so that he did grow into them naturally #and as for the benefactor could that be Locutus itself? ie the personality was somehow still embedded in whatever #hidden implants or alterations the Borg made to Picard's #original body and left behind...and that's what the Changelings were trying to extract from the body #and maybe they put it into a changeling and thats why it seems to have a similarly shapeless form #but does NOT seem to be part of the Great Link for whatever reason #and is now seeking Jack to be his new vessel or something? idk idk something like that maybe

The podcast host: What would it be like to go on a blind date with Theodore Roosevelt?

Library of Congress lady: One word comes to mind: Exhausting.

Me: Those are the words of an introvert.

#history is awesome #presidential talk #the blind date question is the most fun part of the podcast #especially with this library of congress lady because she understands the assignment #some other people tend to give a basic bio with background and a couple of personality traits that show up in office #but she understands that this is the time to talk about their social side #how they interact with people and what they like to do and how they would entertain someone #and she puts thought into what kind of activities this blind date might entail #(teddy roosevelt's taking you hiking) #this podcast experience is strengthening my thesis that history is most fun from a female perspective #don't get me wrong there are some great guys here #but the girls are more likely to focus on the human side of history in a way that really makes these people come alive #(if it seems like i'm bolting through presidents fast that's because i had a long commute) #(and i accidentally had the speed set at 1.2 from the time i relistened to the chester arthur episode) #(i didn't even notice until the drive home) #(though that might explain why karl rove sounded like he was giving a caffeine-fueled special-interest infodump about mckinley)

thinking about hisashi eguchi-sensei, fujimoto's gender bende one-shot and the whole "i wake up and become a girl" trope...

#some people approach this trope in a... pretty misogynistic and transphobic way #but there are also people who use this trope to explore the thoughts of genders from an... outsider perspective i would say #and personally i think this trope is good for people who wanna explore the feelings of living in a different way #the possibilities that arises when one definite trait in you has changed #will you still be the same or will you become someone else? #how will people treat you if things are... just a little bit different #and watching that archipel video where they interviewed hisashi eguchi #that one line of him saying the reason why he mostly draw women and girls are because of the frustration of #not being born a girl #and i'm like #WHOA #dude #but that's... also kind of the reason why i draw men and boys a lot too #sometimes it's the frustration really that fuels me #but yeah idk #i just think everyone will benefit from thinking of genders not as this very strict thing but rather #as something that is fluid and... fits to their own perception of reality #if you are born as X and after much reflection you still identify as X then good for you #but if you are born as Y and after much reflection you think it's... just too hard living as Y and you wanna be something else? #then go for it #humans are always changing #if our behaviors can change #then our physical can change too #tmi tag

Thank you for your service, we really need more black voices in the radfem / TERFs spaces, I agree with most of them, but the whitestness (just like TRAs unironicly) can get pretty gross and awful

Pleasure is all mine. I love sharing my thoughts. I'm not specifically trying to speak on behalf of radfems though or grab the microphone in their spaces. But yea, white people will always speak from a white perspective no matter what movement they're a part of.

#Anon I know you meant no harm #But it bothers me so immensely that I'm lumped in with radfems and called a terf just for defending my homosexuality #That's not to say there's anything wrong with radfems but I don't know why I have to be assumed to be one just cause of that #It's like if I said I liked trees and everyone started earnestly calling me an environmentalist #Like god #Why is me stating facts about sexuality something that has to get political #Being gay should be neutral #I KNOW that you guys know gay conservatives and gay people whose political alignments make no sense with their sexuality #It's because being gay is a neutral trait and tells you NOTHING about the person #Like god I just want to like pussy in peace without everyone hyping me up as... Anything lmao #Take my opinions and like them #But just know that all my posts are from a lesbian perspective. Not radfem or anything else.

Sometimes I wonder if I’ll recognize the person in my eulogy

When I’m long gone, and someone who loved me stands up to speak

Will I know the person they used to see?

Will I have remembered the things they held so dear?

I know myself but would I through another’s eyes?

If I heard their words would I know they were for me?

We do not write our own eulogies

We do not stand up and speak of who we used to be

We leave that last act of love to the ones who knew us best

But will they try to make us seem better, kinder, more generous, more patient?

Will they make us into icons of who we really were?

Sometimes I wonder, if I’ll recognize the person in my eulogy

#I need a tag for original posts #writing #I've been thinking about this lately #I also wonder if current me would recognize the person reading said eulogy #I imagine going into the future and hearing someone's eulogy and never even realizing it was yourself #do you admire them? fear them? curse their name? Do you pity the poor soul who's finally found rest? #Do you see someone taken too soon or not soon enough? #Do you spit on their grave? Are you inspired by them? Do you even care past a brief thought? #Sorry if this is morbid #It's interesting though isn't it? We don't usually write our own eulogies; so it's not our perspective #It's the perspective of someone close to us (or at least someone SEEN as being close to us) #and on top of that it's usually a public thing where you want to make them seem like the best version of themselves #you bring up happy memories and good traits not anger or pain #so it's a different view point and it's a view point that's been rose tinted (so to be speak) so...do you recognize yourself from that? #Do you see yourself or a stranger or maybe just someone close but not quiet right

I just remembered that like a while back you said you wanted to write something about kirishima cheating on reader and you explained why so I was wondering is there any other character from mha that you could see cheating on their s/o?

DID I SAY THAT? help ,, i can see why i did but i dont wanna hurt anyones feelings about their fave 🥲 so lets pretend it doesn’t exist and i was just saying shit to say it

#return to sender #cheating cw #i can understand why i said that and what my reasoning was and i could also give you a list #but im pretty sure people would eat me if i talked about it #ill just say i think each bnha had a set of traits and some of those traits lead well to infidelity #each of them had flaws to expand on so if i do say this about a character #its just a commentary on how i percieve their emotional state #it doesnt mean i think theyre super likely to cheat its just a personal perspective #but none of ur faves would cheat on you they love you etc

#you'd think having a near death experience would change a persons perspective on life #and make someone think about all their own toxic traits #but nope my moms built different #if anything shes even more bitter than before #and has been more aggressive #but oh well what can you do you cant help someone who doesnt want to be helped #personal

I have been recently made aware that people exist somewhere out there who find mercer frey attractive. I am baffled beyond belief. how am I to go on as though this is not a concern

#he looks like every other greasy man rendered with skyrim's less-than-stellar graphics and his only personality trait is Condescending Ass! #the most one dimensional man I've ever seen! so fundamentally unlikeable I've never given him a second thought #I understand intellectually that other people have stances and perspectives that differ from mine. but COME ON #THAT GUY??????????
