Psalm 69 | Save Me, O God
A Cry for Deliverance in Deep Distress “Save me, God,For the waters have threatened my life.I have sunk in deep mud, and there is no foothold;I have come into deep waters, and a flood overflows me.I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched;My eyes fail while I wait for my God.” Surrounded by Enemies Without Cause “Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head;Those…

On autonomy, and what it means to be Obliged to Help.
Bonus:
#a homestuck walks into an antechamber and asks#hey is anybody going to make this dynamic wholly deterministic and thus dubiously consensual by its very nature#ANYWAY bigger ramble below. scroll down like usual#isat spoilers#isat#isat fanart#isat siffrin#isat loop#sifloop#THATS RIGHT WE'RE STILL SHIP TAGGING IT BABYYYY#in stars and time#in stars and time fanart#lucabyteart#RAMBLE START: anyway i think loop is wrong here. they have it backwards. as-- in my opinion--#the main reason they could be called back into existence postcanon is because *their* wish for help is still not complete#they still need help. siffrin still needs help. neither of them will ever stop needing help.#they will thus uphold the wish until the end of siffrin's natural lifespan.#that said. what does it mean that loop can be so wholly forced to abide by siffrin's wants?#(assuming the dagger cutscene posession is them being forced to uphold the 'help siffrin' wish via harsh universe logic)#[as opposed to something capricious and cruel the change god did. which feels out of character for the change god to me?]#much like how the island wish and duplicate objects are neutered by simply sliding off people's brains...#is loop subtly ushered toward their wish? obviously it's not a full override (see: the bossfight). but is there any interference?#and if so. so what? does it matter? if they don't notice? is it even real if they don't notice?#and even if they do notice. the universe leads we follow. how much do either of them value their free will in a belief system like that?#the whole game is dedicated to siffrin habitually NOT excersizing his free will. doing things the same Every Time.#Loop ESPECIALLY does this. predetermined predetermined predetermined even in the FACE OF CHANGE. REFUSING. ANY CHOICE.#Maybe they'd even be comforted by having a universe-ordained purpose even if it is subservient. even if its to Him.#(though. i can't see siffrin enjoying the idea that someone is subservient TO them... then all their suffering is his fault...)#loop got into this mess via WANTING too much. no more free will. can't be trusted with it. take it away from them.#but yeah. gets my greasy detective pony hands all over this. and everyone please do remember i like to make characters Outright Wrong A Lot

Not sure why, but this episode has some incredible Lex profiles.
#the one by the fireplace makes me want to punch everything#I guess if they were going to make him suffer#(and lbr when are they NOT making him suffer)#he looks this pretty while doing it#ALSO#the fact that Lionel is going around to everyone behind Lex's back#and talking about how his being senator would be so terrible#and everyone is just like “yeah you're so right Lionel”#what???????#yeah you think the man who's done his best to twist his son into something evil just like himself is to be trusted??#if Lex is so bad - how did he GET THAT WAY??#never mind that he very obviously ISN'T as bad as everyone seems to think#but if he was why in God's name would you rely on the word of the man who raised him???#I realize I'm screaming into the void about something we all question#but like it begs the question#why do they believe Lionel?#are they stupid?#short answer: yes. yes they are#anyways I'm off to kick some stuff#lex luthor#5x07 splinter#smallville#not spn

The Average Alfred Pennyworth Portrayal: *is Bruce Wayne's capable and somewhat cryptic butler*
Gotham!Alfred Pennyworth: *threatens an 11 years old boy to eat his dinner proper because if he doesn't he'll be too light in weight by the morning and the Balloonman will come for him and will tie him to a balloon and send him to the skies to die because he's rich and corrupt and forever guilty*
#not to be dramatic on main but i'd die for Gotham!Alfred he's clinically insane#and he's exactly what Bruce needs they're so fucking toxic together (most affectionate)#like you look at Gotham!Alfred#and suddenly it's very understandable why baby Bruce turned into a bucket of feral ferrets the way he did#god i love them both so much they's so!!!!!#they grapple with each other and have their teeth sunken into the back of each others' necks so deep and it's pure affection and love#and it's honest and trusting but it's not kind#fucking delicious dynamic Gotham's Alfred&Bruce saved me actually#they're sewn together by the spine and they both suffer for it#alfred pennyworth#Bruce Wayne#Gotham#Gotham TV

*inhale*
YOU’RE WEIRD AND ENCOURAGING PARASOCIAL RELATIONSHIPS THAT ARE HARMFUL TO BOTH PARTIES
#.png#PRIVATE WORSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND PEOPLE YOU TRUST IS FINE#BUT ITS DANGEROUS TO ENCOURAGE RANDOS ONLINE TO TREAT U LIKE A GOD WHILE UR STILL HUMAN#U STILL HAVE VULNERABILITIES#YOU CAN BE A VICTIM#ALL CULT LEADERS SUFFER EVENTUALLY#godkin#divinekin#deitykin#actually divine#actually god#deity kin#divine otherkin#divine kin#god kin#actually angelic#angel kin#angelkin#discourse#this shouldn’t be discourse it should be common sense

I hate how 80% of writers on A03 write present day DM. Daniel Molloy is a crotchety old man. He’s an asshole. He is NOT Armand’s trauma informed therapist. Mr. fucked a girl with a bag over her head is not a super sensitive empathetic soul. Have you seen his reaction when Louis cries? The twice divorced man estranged from his two daughters is not calling Armand babygirl ( even though I wish he would😭) unless he’s being patronizing. If you thought Louis’ “my daddy vampire groomed me into a little bitch” line was bad just wait until Daniel and Armand get into an argument! So many fake old man toxic yaoi enjoyers smh😔. They should be playing psychosexual murder games with each other!
#I wanna watch them make each other suffer.#thank god for Rolin and the other writers#They’ve been so intentional about the small DM hints. I trust them to actually make this storyline work and not rush it#iwtv#daniel molloy#armand#devils minion

Psalm 22 | From Despair to Praise: A Prophetic Psalm of Suffering and Glory
A Cry of Forsakenness “My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?Far from my help are the words of my groaning.My God, I cry out by day, but You do not answer;And by night, but I have no rest.” Trust in God’s Past Faithfulness “Yet You are holy,You who are enthroned upon the praises of Israel.In You our fathers trusted;They trusted and You rescued them.To You they cried out and they fled to…

Nmixx concert is june 8th and I should be excited but I booked to stay overnight and now I'm just like 😬
#i honest to god do not know how long tigga has left but if i go to the concert and he dies um. I wont ever be okay with that so#worst timing#imagine if the vet for the past year had actually been taking care of him instead of drugging him nearly to death#like imagine if hed been adequately medicated by the vet i repeatedly took him to instead of her writing him off as old#now i feel guilty for not realizing the vet was either stupid or a shit head and its like not actually my fault for trusting her#she should be able to do her job i should have been able to trust her but No and now hes the one whos been suffering#😮💨

"God never gives you more than what you can handle" bzzzt, wrong!
"God never gives you more than what He can handle"
#I think the first point is unhelpful because so many times you do feel completely out of your depth#and sometimes that can turn into 'well God doesn't know/love me enough to know my limits'#or 'God is punishing me beyond my limits'#or 'God isn't real in that case'#But turning to God and trusting in God and His ability to transform pain into something beautiful can help#it's just that this trust isn't easy for a lot of/most people!#And I think sometimes the first point can be used by other people to dodge responsibility for trying to help someone in need#I don't think you can reach people in their suffering if you inadvertently downplay their pain and their struggles at remedying the issue#Because the reality is that yes often times this pain is too much for any human to deal with alone and too complicated to unravel themselve

1 Timothy 4:10 (NKJV) - For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe.

sorry 4 always complaining but i am so over "the gods arent real" reveals . why are u so opposed to faith and the belief in something u cant comprehend fully but still devote urself to anyway. is that not a form of love. yawn.
#likeeeeeeeee. this is part of my problem with da4 . the revelations about the evanuris literally happened nearly ten years ago#with the release of trespasser. and from what ive seen in interviews with david gaider that was always the plan.#for the elven gods to be fake#and idk its so cruel and callous ?? have the dalish and the elves not suffered enough.#especially considering the dalish and elves in general r explicitly based upon indigenous/romani/jewish peoples#going into da4 i was kind of hoping that not all the evanuris were as solas said they were#because why should we trust every word he says. the devs even say dont trust solas entirely#and then nope they didnt do any of that they just had the entire pantheon be tyrants#like ok. sure.#and then it turns out they're all dead anyway. lmfao.#so we never get to see another perspective . just elgar'nan and ghilan'nain being hurdudrdur we're evil and stuff#like :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) ok#datvg spoilers#da4 spoilers
