#when is heritage day

[writer-room]

Obsessed with Lloyd never mentioning his grandfather is the First Spinjitsu Master, apparently to the point even Arin didn't seem to know, because "eh, it never came up". Cause like, yeah, sure, my grandfather is God, what of it? Normal day for me. Shit happens. My dad is also evil, you wanna talk about that? I sure don't.

It's also funny from a character arc perspective. Here's itty bitty baby first season Lloyd, loudly proclaiming he's the son of Garmadon, and probably also making sure everyone knows he's God part 3 electric boogaloo. And then one Tomorrow's Tea and a few more years later and he's doing everything physically possible to NOT care about his heritage. In fact he'd probably rather his parentage was literally anyone else. Dude could care so less he forgets about it most of the time. King behavior.

#ninjago #dragons rising #ninjago dragons rising #ninjago dr #lego ninjago #lloyd garmadon #first spinjitzu master #garmadon #text post #talk #ideas #lloyd that entire time interally was probably like 'did wu get a temple--? oh wait thats granddad. sorry granddad. i guess' #he took one look at that altar and went hm. should probably fix that. mostly cause it'll fix my problem but wu didnt raise no disrespect #(except for when the disrespect is funny) what who said that #do you think he was like 'oh thank granddad finally my godly heritage isnt screwing me over' when the ghost mentioned needing a descendant #or was he like 'well. its another day of me being grandfathers favorite i guess' #do you think sora and arin felt awkward realizing they were in the temple of lloyds granddad. meanwhile lloyd did not give a flying fck #as far as hes concerned granddad can stuff it cause hes 80% all the sht that happens to him is bc God really likes him & thinks starting #problems is an appropriate way to show his love. and he doesnt think god takes constructive criticism #he sure will try tho #also yknow his closest interactions with Gods are his dad & uncle. & Wu is. like that. & also he's so sick of garmadon's bs #'my dad is literally banging some news guy i could not respect him less if i tried. his taste has only ever been mediocre. sorry mom'

When you guys talk everyday and they used to be your person and now it feels like they couldn’t care less about you or anything u have to say

#istg I was crying the other day and I ended it like its fine even though I had been sobbing and he just started talking about random shit #and today he called and didn’t listen to a word I had to say and didn’t pay attention to anything #but got mad when I wasn’t invested in his whole ass family heritage retelling #and we used to be able to banter but now it just feels bitter like it’s not fun or funny anymore #idk what’s happening it’s just shit

I know the developers weren’t think of this but Sebek’s birthday and overall look has funny design when it comes to his birthday in the US.

Sebek’s hair is green

Sebek’s wearing green

Sebek’s in a green dorm

And his birthday is on March 17th….St. Patrick’s Day in the US and Ireland.

Essentially, I headcanon that Sebek is half-Irish.

#twst meme #twst wonderland #twisted wonderland #sebek zigvolt #twst sebek #Sebek has silently been giving us clues to his Irish heritage #he may hate being a half-human but he won’t disrespect his papa’s heritage #especially when he was born on such an important day for his supposedly Irish ancestry #twst headcanons #sebek headcanons #st patricks day #also Sebek being Irish also adds a bit more as to why he values the fae and his Fae side so much

Mulling over the idea of Kae in the Abyss verse slowly transforming into an Abyss herald or smth bc of the influence of all the Abyssal energy he'd absorbed and used, but instead of simply accepting it; he's utterly terrified and the Instant someone, anyone, finds him partway corrupted, him just Immediately reaching out to them so desperately, pride be damned, and begging them in tears to stay, to not leave him alone, like a child craving solace in the face of thunder-

Why does the MCU always write mcu!Wanda's storyline having her go after poc? Like....Marvel, what the hell?

#anti mcu #anti wanda maximoff #marvel #mcu critical #like even since day one of being introduced to her in aou #johannesburg where #after mentally messing with bruce she let him out into a popluated area #even if indirectly she is still responsible #while an accident the people in lagos still died but its never mentioned again and quickly brushed off #her whole aggressiveness towards monica and this is all before mom #don't evn get me started on how mom writers wanted her to walk in carrying mordo's head #like this is repeating way to much to be a coincidence #but the mcu disrespected her since day one when they whitewashed and erased all her romani and jewish heritage

This is just a map of New England (minus Connecticut the fake New England state)

#text post #new england #source: boston 25 news website: believe it or not massachusetts is not the most irish state new study finds #18.9% of mass residents have irish ancestry #really this is not surprising at all. massachusetts is the most population-dense state by far with the most immigrants #and new hampshire? ask anyone where their family lived before they came to new hampshire. it was massachusetts #new hampshire is full of ethnically irish and italian and polish catholics whose families have been here long enough #to assimilate and move to the suburbs and become xenophobic and anti-immigrant. #literally bothers me so much when ppl named molly o'flannigan and patrick sullivan talk shit about dorchester lawrence etc #and other immigrant-dense areas in new england. i'm like baby your grandparents lived there #well or at least that's my experience #new england still does have a shocking amount of wasps whose families have been here since the fuckin mayflower #i dont have a direct link to that in my own family but it's very strange how that is taught to new england children as like #'our' heritage in schools. plymouth plantation and the puritans and all that. you're weirdly made to identify w it #and like as time goes on #just factually that only represents the population of ppl who live and are raised here less and less. #not to mention it does nothing to address DIVERSITY in the area. but i suppose there's like a local mythos #we have to teach a story to children and it has to be a 'we' story and that story has to be pilgrims #bc the story has to start at colonization and not expand after that. thats too complex. happy thanksgiving? #new england white people have a habit of thinking theyre irish catholic anglo-protestant settlers and they built this country #they dont parse out their own identity at all and they certainly don't want to have to consider other ppl's. #wow i didnt mean this to turn into a culture-critical rant im sure most of my followers arent even from here so idk what this means 2 u guy #happy saint patrick's day!

What if we started a tradition of writing fanfiction but it was strictly from series that you only know through a follower's posts

#i'm thinking about that one ''i know nothing about ace attorney'' video #and how it became an ace attorney heritage post #and then this thought came to mind #i am queuing this to come out in the day when i'm more awake #and who knows #maybe this is a good idea #maybe it's bad

Anyway, since we're talking about the tournament again, what would you say if I told you that after making a fuckton of descole propaganda I voted Clive in the final round?

#not a heritage post #look #Descole is my blorbo #my *I spin this character in my had for hours* dude #my fave #but at the end of the day I know our history #doesn't mean I didn't celebrate his victory though #I had two folder on my pc then. #stuff when des wins and stuff when des loses

saw a tiktok of like the view of the pyramids of giza from an airplane, and there was this foreigner in the comments talking about how its so strange and wrong that people live so close by the pyramids and how those houses should be cleared away from such an important monument, and like. idk how to tell people that to them, egypt is a cool museum, but to actual egyptians, who are majority extremely poor and live short, shitty lives btw, it is their Home that they Live In and have Lived In For Centuries and that they are under no obligation to uproot their lives and their lifestyles to preserve an orientalist hypercapitalist hellscape Experience(tm) for foreigners who never got over the mummy (1999)

#in order to please tourists and foreign investors the government is currently gentrifying Many areas in egypt btw #bulldozing these incredibly old well loved neighborhoods and taking away civilians' rights to enjoy even a view of the nile #so forgive me if i get touchy about foreigners complaining when the dirty brown egyptians are clogging their picturesque pyramids view #the tourism industry while being a source of income for many egyptians is still the cause of so much suffering #and genuine crises in egyptian identity and the way we view our heritage #idk its just. the gentrification has really gotten started these days and im just sad. im just sad for us. #neighborhoods and communities destroyed for people like this #people will always be more important than this dumb 'egyptian' aesthetic #foreigners have such a weird weird way of talking about egypt and egyptians #ughhh whatever #egypt #gentrification #egyptology #tourism #orientalism

if toh s3 had a full 20 episodes i wonder what the acrostic would have been. definitely something about luz. s1 focused on eda’s baggage and backstory, so the acrostic was about her. as was the code in the background of each episode, being about the parallel between the clawthorne sisters and the wittebane brothers. s2 focused on the same with king, so the acrostic and code were about him and the history of the titans and collectors. and now s3 is obviously heavily focused on luz’s baggage and what her homelife was like with camila. im sure they would have gone into it even more if they had more episodes. i wonder if they would have explored more of the human world and that would have been what the code was about. or maybe it would have been about luz’s found family.

#toh #the owl house #luz noceda #eda clawthorne #king clawthorne #fuck disney #thats obligatory #but yeah the more i think about it the more im convinced edge of the world was supposed to have been the s2 finale #like right after hollow mind theres a bit more time before the DoU so luz and king go to the titan trappers #while hunter stays behind with the clawthorne sisters to get interrogated #and during edge of the world they don't escape from the titan trappers as easily and king dramatically sacrifices himself to save luz #keeping with the tradition of one of the main trio dramatically sacrificing themselves and almost dying each season #luz spends like the first bit of s3 regrouping with her friends and the catts before the day of unity #eda using up all the titan blood in hollow mind is more significant bc luz has a few more episodes to get another door going #but she didnt want to go back immediately bc she thought her mom would make her stay in gravesfield and now she cant use the door anymore #so on the day of unity when belos has his door theres more dramatic tensionor smth idk #luz spends not only a bigger chunk of time in the human world and we explore her backstory and relationship with her mother and vee #but we also emphasize how strong the bonds between hexsquad is #so in the s3 finale when luz sacrifices herself like eda and king in seasons past its even more dramatic #edas main baggage is her sister kings baggage is his dad and general heritage #luzs baggage is her identity itself and it would have taken a whole season to unpack all that #shut up pandora

first its 'lets go to a nutritionist, losing weight would help you move around better!' which apparently did help but I personally can't notice and now it's 'you're looking a little bit too thin -_- lets go back to eating smiley fries and chicken nuggets like we did when I was like 7. if you truly care. 😑

#i think the only time i didnt have an hourglass hip and obvious ribs was when i was like 10 #at which point the muscle rot gene hadnt activated yet. i think #but ever since then everything goes to my thighs #to the point that if you only saw my second third youd think im starving #bc of how proeminent my ribcage is. with a lot of kind help by my scolio+lordosis #but apparently im getting too thin now. always some fucking problem #or maybe theyre tunnelvisioned on my hips and chalk my hugeass thighs to heritage #which theyve said before as the reason why theyre so big in the past #god i hate this body so fucking much. if i didnt know what i do now abt fat and weight> #>i think id voluntarily starve myself in the hopes of a different body shape #but im the eat the day away kinda guy not the ignore until it hurts kinda guy #not my fault food is so yummy. just wish i didnt feel hungry so often #so annoying having to eat so many times. cant i just eat a horse and survive off that for 1 week please #dextxt

((Hoyo really put the concerns of some of the elders in Modern Day China here, good gosh

A bit of China talk under the tags))

#OOC #Basically to summarize one of the concerns in China #One of China's sentiment is that their government kept insisting that other countries ESPECIALLY the US loves picking on China #And China would someday be strong enough to 'beat' the US and take over as the world's superpower #All this talk while the rich China politicians send their kids over to the US to study because of China's education system and all that #What Sushang is saying is similar to the concerns of traditional Chinese people in modern era #Is that because China 'always gets bullied and pushed around' (it doesn't help that their government is a bully too) #The kids are leaning more towards other foreign cultures such as the US while not having much of China's tradition and heritage #Basically it became a 'Westernization' of China where the West started to influence China and those who are proud of their home are worried #It doesn't help that the Chinese elders still remember the Nanjing Massacre back at the VERY old days when Imperial Japan was around #So not only are the nationalists seeing their kids be influenced by Western media and stuff #They also don't respect tradition and culture that much either and it doesn't help that politicians are sending their child overseas #instead of working on their own education system #For those who are aware of the famous Japanese song: Senbonzakura it's very similar #I think I pretty much ranted enough but yeah #tl;dr: Sushang's words are pretty much one of the biggest concerns of Modern-day China among people who love their nation

Thinking about Bby Kaeya teaching Diluc Khaenri’ahn dances in their childhood, just as Bby Luc taught him Mond games

#☆ ┆ ( .ooc. ); #//Bby Kae singing as best and loud as he can to keep rhythm; perhaps not the WORDS bc he can’t remember/doesn’t know exactly what they are #//But the melody for sure; even if he’s still so shy to share his voice and just THIS #//Luc; being precocious enough to pick up the rhythm/melody anyways; and takes up singing louder so Kae isn’t so shy #//Prolly missing a few notes or getting it wrong; but it’s enough to ease the anxiety Kae has until they’re more worried abt the steps #//Eventually getting Jean in on it; the three of them doing these Khaenri’ahn dances; singing these Khaenri’ahn songs #//And Jean’n Luc are none the wiser; but it doesn’t matter bc it’s THEIR thing now #//Up until Le Confrontation and everything goin to Heck #//Present day though; Kae might teach Klee those very dances and melody #//Definitely does not remember any words to its song; but singing that melody for her either way #//After meeting Dainsleif; he might try and ask if he’d know it too #//Idk; I just love the idea of Kae having given Luc pieces of his heritage all along; and being SO happy he accepted them all #//Then when Le Confrontation happens; Diluc’s reaction; while expected; ends up being what drives the wedge btw Kae & Khaenri’ah #//Becoming averse to it and his mission bc one of the most important people in his life wound up Not accepting him as part of it #//Averse; save very particular circumstances/things; like the dances; bc of the ties he’s made to them

simon zealotes you are in my thoughts

#i've been thinking of that guy today. and like . his first days with the rest of the disciples #and him sort of trying to adjust to living in normal circumstances 💀 #well. normal. #not normal but different abnormal circumstances #susanna getting his braids off when he decides he's not going back. i've been thinking abt that a lot. #so far i've only ever drawn him with natural hair but while he was a zealot he had to have it braided. it's a hc i have. #for convenience purposes but also just because well. #non black zealots were definitely normal about him ! #my simon z is mixed. his father was from canaan his mother was ethopian. clearly he wasn't meant to be born mother died at birth father #tried to raise the child as jewish as he possibly could to ignore the existence of the african mother #worked out great for him he became a zealot #anyways. whatever. didn't have any actual connection to his ethiopian heritage until he met susanna #it's a whole moment. simon z is a whole moment #oh and there's also the. stabbing big james that's how i hc they met him sort.of #simon witnesses a miracle and panics. i havent decided which one yet i'll figure it out #he runs away and you cant exactly just leave the zealots so he's hiding out somewhere relatively near jesus' disciples' camp by chance #he spots the camp and mans hungry so once the disciples all go about their business and leave someone to watch over he tries to steal food #to his luck its big james who's stayed behind and he's both impulsive and agressive so when he spots the guy with the knife trying to steal #from them he punches him in the face. #and look. simon feels threatened. he's a trained zealot. he has a knife on him. it's a reflex can you really blame him ??? #anyways he didnt actually mean to stab that guy and he /was/ just stealing their food so idk call it his own conscience call it the power o #jesus he stays and helps him. when jesus gets back he's like 'ah yes a knife guy exactly what's been missing from this team's dynamic' #james is currently bleeding on the floor and he's like nahhh its cool hes funny ! john is panicking and crying. at least two people suggest #they trade matthew for him. matthew hears zealot and starts hyperventilating because he's 88% sure he's going to get murdered in his sleep #(they dont tell simon about matthew's former occupation for like. at least two months more) #it's a vibe !

Too many people arguing about if Demeter or Hades is the better person, not enough people ditching that argument and discussing how Persephone might feel trapped in her endless cycle

#I’m trying to write an essay to post on tumblr about the Homeric hymn to Demeter one day bc. I see a lot of bad takes but I also see a lot #a lot of people why just. don’t understand mythological storytelling. #everybody is wrong and also everybody is right. and a lot of people don’t wanna hear that they don’t want someone telling them that they can #can be both right and wrong when it comes to their interpretation or analysis of mythological texts #and mind you many of these people only get educated in myth through tumblr and have never picked up an actual book on mythological analysis #and by hell I really wanna write this essay to at least provide some light education #my credentials include some university level research my autism and my Greek heritage #anyway these tags are unrelated to the post sorta! topically similar but the tags and the post are not saying the same things
