The ageism towards Osiris is also so so so prominent but I didn’t wanna derail your post since you were doing some really good analysis on the racism in the fandom
No anon you're so right, I tried to hint at it with the fact that I kept saying that him being an older man played a part in why the racism against him was so blatant. The older any man from the Middle East is, the more people seem to think of him as being predatory, sleazy, and untrustworthy. We're considered dangerous militant terrorists when we're in our twenties, but that only gets worse as we get older, and lots of the racist caricatures are biased towards men in their 40's-50's. I blame that on why people were so willing to just assume that Osiris's actions when Savathun was masquerading as him were just him showing his true colours, even though '''he''' was wildly fucking OOC during the whole stint.
Feel free to add your analysis onto mine if you wish! That's not derailing my post about the racism at all, because the ageism and racism goes hand and hand in this case, so focusing on one doesn't exclude the other.

HC they first met a year or two after Yelan got her vision; post fighting the in abyss but when Kaeya was still navigating his identity from Kaeya, Brother and Right hand of Diluc Ragnvindr to Kaeya Alberich, Cavalry Captain and Quarter master of the Knights of Favonius.
#We know Kaeya's a bit of a sadist and does leave his men in the dark most of the time#Back when he he'd been newly appointed i feel he'd be quite reckless as to how much 'pushing' his knights could handle on missions#used to working from diluc's shadow rather than being the one to direct commands#And Yelan after her experience in the Abyss chooses to work alone and secrectively so that the lives of her comrades won't be in danger#She sees that Kaeya operates very much like her but he does not have the luxury to work as 'freely' as she does when it comes to official#missions for there are still people working under him#(ofc both of them do whatever they want when it comes to going of abyss side quests)#There's no way she doesn't feel some sort of kinship they're really similar in many aspects#she does not want to see a repeat of her certain mistakes#Yelan is also questioning how the actual fuck do the knights operate because why is a 16yr old beefing with her to get to a mafia boss firs#They come to 'good terms' as time passes where they have mutual respect for each other#both of them try their best to outwit each other form time to time of course#Kaeya being petty(er) and Yelan being 'i need to set this guy straight'#But back then after seeing Kaeya work missions for the first time Yelan's thinking that this kid is too smart for his good#additional hcs for Back In That Day#Yelan: -still hasn't gotten her signature bob. -often uses a crutch because Abyss did a number on her and her pre existing chronic illness#Kaeya- has a fuckass mullet#yeah.. my apolocheese for the ramble#genshin impact#genshin impact fanart#kaeya#kaeya alberich#yelan#yelan genshin impact#kms mention

forgive me if this is too serious for an anon ask.. feel free to ignore it..
but this week shook me in ways i didnt see coming. i wasnt a one direction fan growing up.. tbh im still not, i listen to only a few songs. im same age as louis. so, i found one direction through him.
i have great affection for all of the boys though. and even in my short time in fandom, i've always been surprised and saddened by the bullying liam has gotten.. he just always seemed like a good person with really poor communication skills. to understand his point, you had to give him some space and context.
but this year has been a constant worried watch over liam. it was so plain things were desperate.
stan twitter got to me so bad that i left twitter the day louis' tour ended. so i was very peripherally aware of his recent harassment, but i did worry.
and now the unimaginable has happened, i am just at loss. not just in the sense of how to make sense of this loss, but also the complete lack of empathy for him still? even for other boys' fans.?? after they've seen how all of the boys' are hurting?
and just in the bigger picture.. how is this real? what loving god/higher power/whatver has allowed this to be the state of the world? he was so kind, so generous, just a boy. JUST A BOY. just trying to find a place to fit and feel safe. why was he dealt such cruelty? just while he was pursuing something he loved? something he was gifted with? in life and in death?
im just at loss. heartbreak doesnt even begin to cover it.
for me I've felt it was a constant worried watch over Liam for many years now, but other than that, yeah. It's hard to feel hope or faith in the face of so much senseless cruelty and pointless loss; all I can say is I would hope the millions of people who are shocked and saddened by this take away something lasting both about the fact that there are real people on the other side of the computer screen and cruelty has a real impact, and that addiction can afflict anyone. Nothing can make this other than tragic and regrettable forever; but I would love to see the amazing power of fandom mobilized to support programs for addicts and to fight stereotyping and dismissing of people who use drugs in Liam's name. To see people use this as a realization to really understand that it wasn't strange or exceptional that someone talented and worthwhile could succumb to addiction and ultimately die of it, but rather a plague that our society is allowing to run unchecked because of stigma. IDK, maybe I'm just grasping at straws trying to find something remotely positive that could come out of this situation but what else can you do? It's just so sad.

yknow i spent so long always romancing the least popular or one of them LIs in games (like sera and harding as examples) that when i actually romanced one of the most popular LIs (hello Gale) i really didn’t know how to navigate that popularity. what? there’s actually.. CONTENT? have you seen all this FANART???? and there’s… META?!?! and …. i have 10 friends who also ship their oc with him??? that’s fucking crazy dude. i’m so used to being the only cunt in the mutual circle who gives a shit about this character and being the token fan of them. now i gotta learn how to be one of many
the funniest part is gale is not my type. he’s not my M.O. he’s actually very much Not my type. i don’t even like purple

Hang on thought about pastry arts school again
Tumblr media
#like. why and HOW did i go through 2 full years of college and not graduate with an associates#how did they get away with stringing me along for 1.5+ years as a pastry arts major with no pastry chef#the one pastry class i did have when i met the pastry chef before he quit. it was like. taunting#bc it wasnt extremely new info to me it was baking 101. but the chef was such an amazing teacher#and i was so excited to learn from him#and i cant blame him at all for quitting like bro i wouldn't wanna work there either !!!!#they couldn't hire another pastry chef for almost 2 years bc NO ONE WANTED TO WORK FOR THE PROGRAM HEAD#i know of 2 separate stories where one chef in the area wanted to get into teaching and then heard who the boss chef was and said oh nvm 😬#and one chef who got hired and then quit before he could start bc he couldn't stand to work with that man#like i Know the food service industry is tough and intense and chefs have a reputation for being jerks#i Know that. and multiple people warned me of that before i started. and sometimes im like wow i was wrong i couldn't actually handle it#everyone told me i couldn't handle it and i said yes i could and then i couldn't#but is that really what happened???? bc there were other jerk chefs in that school!! and still no one could stand that ONE MAN!!!!!#we literally complained to the president of the college. and she said uwu hes doing his best 🥺#bc thats the thing with him. you think hes nice until you're in the kitchen with him. he IS nice until youre in the kitchen with him#i truly think he designed the course in order to weed out the weak ones#and ig it worked bc so many people dropped out !!!!! but like . sir. i started that program at 17 years old#a fully prepared 17 year old. a smart 17 year old. a talented 17 year old. an eager and excited 17 year old. but a 17 year old#we were learning how to COOK not DISARM BOMBS. i hope hes glad that my 17-19 year old self got weeded out for being weak.#congratulations man you broke me.#literally he gave me the worst panic attack of my life on the first day and was so mean to me bc of my anxiety and how shy i was#to the point that i finally admitted i needed to go to the doctor#and then when i started some meds. and also was OUT OF HIS CLASS. and in the pastry class. and was a little more comfortable#he wanted to take credit for 'bringing me out of my shell' 😐 and i wish i had said what i was thinking. and looked him in the eye#and said thanks its cause of the drugs.#not only were the internship hours insane but also the class hours and the graduating test#i get that the classes have to be longer bc we need time for things to cook but . 8/9 hours ??? dudeeee#obviously i didn't get to the graduating test class thing but the way he described it sounded like torture 😭#and ofc you cant find that info online before you enroll. and they only offered it in summer#so if you finished in fall you still had to wait through spring to technically graduate. assuming you pass the week long torture test

JACKUCHO FURUYA : ❛ but you said I could call you anytime after 3pm. . . did you change your mind already ?! ❜
Jackucho's infatuation with Kazuo knows no bounds, and her feelings for him are nothing short of all-consuming. She sees him as the embodiment of perfection, the "picture-perfect jock" that she can't help but admire. To her, Kazuo is the apex of everything she desires in a partner, and her relentless pursuit of his attention is fueled by unwavering determination. She views Kazuo's stoic demeanor as a challenge, believing that deep down, he must be hiding a vulnerable side just waiting for someone like her to uncover it. Jackucho's overly peppy and lovestruck nature makes her persistent in her efforts, unable to take no for an answer.
Despite the fact that her fixation on Kazuo may come across as overwhelming to others, she genuinely believes that she is meant to be with him. She sees their interactions as fate, and while she is often oblivious to the discomfort she may cause him, she remains steadfast in her pursuit, convinced that she alone can unlock the layers of complexity within him. To Jackucho, Kazuo is the personification of her dreams, and she's willing to go to great lengths to ensure that he can't escape her affection.
Tumblr media
In the haunting and nostalgic world of "The bay has eyes," Jackucho embodies the archetype of "the peppy cheerleader who everyone hates." With her signature enthusiasm, she's a character that stands out in the 80s and 90s slasher theme of the story. Jackucho's journey in the narrative is a rollercoaster, as her peppy and lovestruck nature makes her both endearing and exasperating. She's not the first to meet her fate at the hands of the terror lurking in the bay, but her survival isn't guaranteed either, considering her innocence and naivety. She displays potential final girl material, as she may evolve and demonstrate resilience as the story unfolds.
Jackucho could be seen as a potential scream queen, her tendency to express her emotions dramatically fitting into the slasher genre's traditions. She starts off without a traditional weapon but may use everyday objects as improvised weapons during her desperate attempts to survive. Her stats reflect her personality, with above-average agility and speed but lower strength and awareness scores, representing her capacity to flee from danger but her vulnerability when confronted. Jackucho is more of a red herring than oblivious, as the relentless pursuit of her crush and the drama it creates might distract both the audience and the other characters from the true nature of the threat in the bay. She runs with impressive speed in pursuit, driven by her determination and survival instincts, even if her odds remain uncertain.
