My tumblr queue addiction got me wishing for a “queue stack” (place item on top of list, first to be posted) and “queue queue” (place item at end of list, last to be posted) and that’s a bad sign

Saw your post about aliens making out and I'm here for it but question, do you have an issue with the harkness test?

Personally I feel like being able to consent, communicate (to withdraw), and being of reasonable intelligence are perfectly fine requirements for is something is fine to sexualize

no because it's largely a joke test/debate about the ethics of thinking the willem dafoe fish in finding nemo is sexy/explaining that aliens in sci fi can still be consenting adults even if they have 6 legs and mandibles, so, like, you know, who cares about the nuances of it lol. If at some point a lot of people started treating it as a genuine hard litmus for the morality of books and movies in the way they did with the bechdel test, i would have problems with it since "can it express itself with language or, in the most dire cases, very clear body language indicating sapience?" is something that assumes a baseline of anthropomorphism that isn't gonna map onto a lot of fiction (The Shape of Water, for instance, would conventionally fail). but i haven't really seen that happen yet.

also i don't remember saying anything about that, i just joked that it's kind of funny that 1) the character who originates the term never clearly illustrates it (outside of a single line about a very obviously sapient/humanoid alien lady, all of his alien love interests - the doctor, alonzo - look entirely human) and 2) that show's main inhuman alien (the tardis) has often been presented as romanceable but doesn't pass the test.

i'm literally insane about the last agni kai and the lightning scene(s). i swear i've rewatched it 10+ times since my last rewatch of the show (which was my first watch in years) and like. azula sees katara come into view from behind. zuko doesn't. he follows azula's gaze and sees katara and is immediately horrified. he doesn't even think or hesitate because he doesn't have time and for once he doesn't have to look back at azula to figure out what she's doing because he knows what she's doing and he won't let it happen. time dwindling into slow motion as a haunting score plays? and zuko literally yelling out "no!" because that lightning absolutely cannot hit katara. as soon as he sees it there's no chance of that ever happening. and then katara watching in horror as the lightning flashes against features in what is probably one of the most hauntingly beautiful animated moments of the show? zuko hitting the ground still convulsing with lightning and katara crying out "zuko!" and immediately trying to run to him before azula attacks again? and the next scene we cut back to with them, zuko is groaning weakly and trying to lift himself up, and we see katara literally gasp in surprise as she realizes he's still alive (i'm sobbing because i do quite literally think she thought he was dead) and immediately tries to run to him again, nevermind that she knows azula is still there, and the hand katara uses for healing is already doused in water as she reaches for him. but then azula starts attacking again. and zuko, despite literally being in so much pain that he can't stand and can barely even move at all without whimpering, still tries to reach for the spot where he can see azula attacking katara. katara is forced to hide from azula's attacks. and as azula is mocking "zuzu, you don't look so good" down to zuko, the perspective shot is such that you can SEE that katara is also looking at where he lies prone in the distance, surrounded by flame (probably wondering how much time they have before it really is too late) before looking back up at azula and realizing she needs to defeat her as quickly and handily as possible so katara can get to zuko. obviously katara would have done this anyway (the whole reason they were THERE was to halt the continued cycle of the imperialist regime of the fire nation), but the scene is specifically framed as katara trying to figure out how to stop azula so the obstacle to her getting to zuko is no longer in the way. katara's defeat of azula was epic and deserves its own post. but then after making sure azula is securely chained, she runs to zuko, looks at him with such immense sadness and horror and fear as she hears him in so much pain, tenderly turns him over so she can get a good look at the wound. and she cups his head? briefly but so gently? so that he won't hit it as she turns him over? and when she tries to heal him you can tell she is so genuinely unsure if it will even work, and so relieved that she starts crying tears of joy when she sees it has (at least enough to keep him alive and somewhat lessen his pain.) they thank each other (and you can tell it's still really hard for zuko to talk and his eyes are barely open but he thanks her anyways i'm.) and she thanks him back and!!! when he starts to try to sit up she makes a little surprised face and then immediately helps him to do so (and puts a tender hand to his chest while she does!!!) and obviously that last shot of them standing together is also one of emotional support, but katara's hand on his back is also partly because i still think (and certainly katara still thinks) trying to walk/stand on his own would be a bad idea, so it's definitely not happening.

I made some pocket sized monsters. Each one is mostly based on the generated sprite next to it(the TOM and Big TOM being exceptions) I will most likely make more :>

I do think it's rather unfair for hades game 2 to literally give us a sapphic moon witch and then proceed to have no love inerests you could conceivably do the "sun lesbian/moon lesbian" thing with. That's like lesbophobic I think. They need to bring the iliad characters back and put cassandra (priestess of apollo, which counts as decent sun symbolism I think) in the game or i'm gonna make a genderbent helios out of pure desperation.

I'M DONE!!!!! idk how it got over 2k because it's absolute unserious ridiculousness. like I don't even. LMAOO...

[loderlied]

tales of berseria ramble idk why but i‘m thinking about this game

genuinely love how most of this main cast is morally grey at best but like. it’s all so very very complex!! meanwhile rokurou's just like 🙂👍 in the background while the others are being put through the emotional turmoil wringer to varying degrees while also being the guy who sucks the most. his entire motivation is just. i really want to fight i want to kill. i really want to kill my brother and i want to do it so much i turned into a daemon and spread horrible rumors about him that got him disowned so our family won't be in the way of our duel :) all while simultaneously being the chillest guy in the group. wild character concept. he hates cats because his brother is a cat person. one of his three swords is made out of another guy. a newly born god has the power to return humans who have turned into daemons back to normal but rokurou’s simply too fucked up for it to work. incredible.

it does suck having had a chiari malformation, especially one that got so bad because i don't even think what it did to my brain counts as brain damage technically but it's been nearly three years since my surgery fixing it and it's still so hard to do so many things that used to be easy. like i can read and write and spell and count and joke and laugh again but reasoning is still so difficult

i hate trying to figure out how to do something because it feels like there's just a gap there where there didn't used to be and a lot of the time now when you ask people for help or clarification they get upset at you and assume you're asking because you're lazy

"just look it up!!" well i tried and the scrambled egg part of my brain still doesn't understand it so what now

i dunno. i know i'm miles better than i used to be, even a year ago, but it's so frustrating to know that i used to be able to think and reason so well and now i just. can't. and i don't even know how to describe to people what's wrong with me

brain damage is the easiest to understand, but is it even right???
