you can tell the author of this general medieval history is also a scholar of jewish history, because he mentions the jewish populations of cities and how they were treated during regime change even when he isn’t leading up to a description of a major antisemitic atrocity
#sometimes they only bring it up bc everyone’s going to get murdered by crusaders in half a page.#it’s kind of fun and refreshing#that often they aren’t and instead the normans are just going to mildly repress them bc they’re distracted by deconverting sardinia#box opener#i dont consume that much popular history though so don’t take me too seriously here.#*popular or academic

Human connections were never easy when I was alive. And now that I'm dead, they seem to bring somehow even more baggage. There are these feelings that I'm not used to. I thought those feelings were never to be spoken of. But once you have them��� it's hard to hold them back. And that terrifies me.

saw one (1) dj ohama joke and got a bit carried away. I wish it was easier to attach music to tumblr posts
#quirinahdraws#digital#nintama#忍たま乱太郎#nintama rantarou#rkrn#mindless fun indulgence for gonensei month but then I procrastinated for the rest of May to work on artfight. lol#the break from drawing nntm for a few months was pretty refreshing though. I’ve been watching the Chinese dub!#it’s kind of exhilarating being able to watch it legibly without subtitles ASHWJKWKAWA whatever.#watched the ep where ohama helps with rankirishins homework iirc too!feel like so many oomfs I know like the fifth years. they’re so cute.#I feel like gonenigumi specifically fit the mold of most other igumi as like emotionally reserved star students ? but#I like that they’re both kind of bubbly airheads it’s cute. as an initial impression#but ohama seems more like the straightman of the two?!?

more phoenix wright situations
#ace attorney tag#maybe i should tag this narumitsu or something. but i dont really care.#gearing up to rereading/illustrating bits of my fic i suppose...i think nick really is too dense to realise he's in love with edgeworth#without some scheming fop trying to intrude. i love villains like kristoph..villains can be fun..witnessing their pathetic folly..#or more like edgeworth would never have mentioned his feelings ever in his life if he wasn't sure phoenix reciprocates.#i want to see it this way because Falling in love during childhood with the person you're going to end up with. is not relatable#there have to be Situations that make you Realise.#as with orufrey i adore the idea of people not working out their romance with that person until their 30s+#but... i mean. even with orufrey i often think how alaira could be qifrey's ex. and oru having been pursued by noble fops through his work#there is that delicate sliver of time before orufrey start living together that such believable situations could have happened.#Then the relief of politely and amicably extricating themselves from those untenable situations#the idea of falling in love age 7 and saving your first kiss for age 35 or something is all very well but more relatable is#people realising how they really feel whilst trying something that ends up feeling wrong.#The comfort and joy of living with your dearest one as if it's platonic - much preferable to trying anything more with anyone else.#But i doubt i will ever portray that or mention it further. it is indeed very delicate to me.#and i really am an OTP FOR LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! kind of person who can barely bear to consider this anyway...NOT a polyshipper i'm afraid !#so i wouldn't mind either if they do have their first kiss in their lives age 35 with each other either. I would not mind that at all.#i love bi/gay couples apparently... bi father figures & their grumpy gay men waiting for them to work it all out...#not used to using colour in comic-style drawings..or at all..so this is messy and awkward looking..but colour is refreshing#i imagine i will go back to witch hat art soon btw. my destiny in life.#i still remember writing my nrmt fic expecting to write their first kiss & then partway through twas like Umm No. They have kissed prior.#does that really line up with this comic though... i think i had their early dinner dates/first kiss BEFORE disbarment.#so i guess this comic doesn't line up with my ficverse.... No..... U___U Oh well. sorry kris! <3

how does one get into bodybuilding
like as an interest? youtube mostly. you gotta be careful though bc it's easy to end up in the alpha male bullshit dimension if you click on the wrong channel. id recommend sticking with guys like jeff nippard and/or will tennyson until you figure out whether you find the topic consistently interesting. also do NOT go on reddit
fwiw i believe this was the first jeff nippard video i ever watched, absolutely caught my interest bc my gut instinct was to go 'there's no way that's right' but the more i thought about it the more i realized it actually made sense and i had just been wrong about posture and pain before
#splashasks#anonymous#lately i've been really liking sam sulek's videos mostly as background noise#dont get me wrong that dude is juiced to the gills and Not where you should be going for beginner fitness advice#but he's INCREDIBLY chill and calm and has this consistent like. understated positivity to how he thinks about things#plus it's kind of refreshing to hear nutrition advice from a dude who is deliberately losing and gaining 20ish pounds over and over#for. and i cannot stress this enough. fun and profit#is it good advice? depends. he's young his audience is other gym bros and he talks about calories like he just found out abt them last week#it's kind of delightful as someone who grew up only hearing about nutrition in the context of a perpetual quest to get smaller forever#guys like dr mike israetel are... fiiine? some good info esp. about steroids and lifting science but kind of an edgelord#w him i would say like. he is an expert on *muscle hypertrophy*. he knows his shit there. do not give equal weight to his opinions about uh#literally anything else. not even muscle strength frankly

one of my coworkers was curious about photocards bc i made a joke about how they're basically the same as sports trading cards, so i brought in one of my svt albums to show him (and some of my other coworkers, who are all cishet men in their 20s and 30s)
the coworker in question is a 35 year old allegedly cishet guy, he was very intrigued by all the different inclusions bc he'd never seen anything like it before
another coworker was asking how much albums cost and thought it was a fair price considering all the stuff you get
in this album i got 2 mingyu PCs and one wonwoo PC and my coworkers were surprised that you could get multiple of the same member and that there were multiple different photos per member
my coworker asked how you're supposed to collect them all if there's so many and i was like... you don't lol (and then explained that with a large group like svt a lot of ppl focus on collecting just one or two members)
i had a signature from DK and my coworker seemed to like the name and decided he was his favorite lol
i taught my coworkers the term "bias" and asked my sports-obsessed coworker who his football bias was and they were so amused by it they started using the term for all sorts of things and got really excited about it (scuba diver bias, plant(? bias, etc.)
my gen z coworker asked which was my favorite member so i showed him jun in the photobook and he said "he doesn't look very korean" me: "he's chinese :)" my coworker: "oh. he doesn't look very chinese" apparently he thought jun looked mixed TT
they were asking how many albums they've released and i was like... i've lost count but at least 2 per year for the last 10 years... they were a bit surprised and impressed lol
i was explaining individual fandom names to them at one point and my sports-obsessed coworker said "imagine being a joshuahead or a dino dog"... joshushushu's and dinonaras are out everyone, joshuaheads and dino dogs are in
#it was kind of sweet they were asking lots of questions about it lol#even though i know it's not their thing#also i've mentioned svt to them a couple times before and i know i've mentioned them having 13 members a couple times#and i think i got the 'why not 17 members' once#but i don't think they've ever asked why or commented on them having too many members which is quite refreshing lol#anyway i thought y'all might find this slightly entertaining#i feel like it was probably more fun for me to see their reactions irl though lol#melia.txt

i love him soooo much i love him so so so much
#ann gets engaged#thank you zeno robinson this was excellent#very hard for me to not just post the entire A support but#i really enjoy this one. i think fogado and pandreo are just sooo perfect#u get to see all the sides of their relationship in this game and i think thats lovely#also obsessed with the fact that when fogado needs a serious talk he doesnt just say ‘hey can we talk?’#he says ‘pandreo can you hear my confession’ thats funny as fuck#imagine trauma dumping on ur priest but hes also a frat bro so he just goes AW BUDDY…#theyre fantastic#but i also just like this part in particular bc yes engage is not a subtle game#but i think that fogado being honest is very fun. hes not hard for us as the player to read but in canon hes acts a little trickier#so its nice for him to just kind of. let that act go for a second to be real about how hard shit is#cuz its like. yk when hes doing all the behind the scenes stuff for his sister he doesnt really get to worry about himself#and hes trying so hard to stay smiling and push past it but mannnnn. hes just a baby…#i love himmmm :(((((((((((((((#also i feel like engage (not the only fe game to do this!) kinda brushes over the fact that theyre at war a lot#so to have fogado remind us that this actually isnt always party central. people are DYING. is kinda refreshing#i know engage doesnt take itself too too seriously but every now and then its nice to know where some of the characters stand in all of this#also tumblr has been chomping my videos to death and this is the only one that made it#and i uploaded it 10 hours ago. whatever

Rabbit is drinking tea in the morning

Rabbit today in the morning is drinking a tea. From his metal green cup. And it is a table here. There is little stump here. And flowers are growing. With round leaves. Something like water lilies. Yes, there, after the corner there is swamp and a shallow river. There is a lake there. There, frogs are living. Ducklings, chickens. Little cow. And rabbit is here, he is around flowers and is drinking a tea.

Ant and mole can go by. With their own things to do. Weather is just fine. Little sun. Summer. What can be better for a rabbit? Summer for everyday! And it is this way here. All little animals are good and kind. And they are joyful. They are living all together. They can go as a guest to each other. And doing their things. So rabbit decides to drink a tea. And it is hot outside. Nothing is better – than a refreshing tea! With a green cup! Rabbit has a green cup. He likes it a lot. This is his favorite cup.

Next, rabbit will go to do gardening things. And rabbit has a garden. Carrot and salad are growing there. And lots lots of little flowers. Every little animals has a garden. And house near the garden. There are lots of place here. This is endless field. Endless summer. And rabbit has a little table and little chair in the garden too. And there is also a teapot. And rabbit will also drink a tea there. Rabbit is thinking about little flowers. And salad. It is good to put water on them. To plant new.

At the evening, it is ok to play console or computer games. Or go as a guest. Or someone will come as a guest. So mole said he will bring cartridges to show. He develop them by himself. And will bring compact disk with games and movies. It will be interesting! Chicken is learning 8 bit. Console Nes he has.

And 8 bit computer. He is learning Basic. He is most small in the field. And now he is living with another small animals. Little cows and ducklings. Next, he will do his little house somewhere in the field. Everyone will help him!
And now rabbit is drinking delicious tea. With such a hot weather. There is nothing more delicious than a tea from green cup. With songs of the grasshoppers in the grass.

romance books are so fun bc i know the author is trying to establish a love triangle but i already know which guy is gonna win bc he was specifically described as being 6 feet 4 inches, the height of all male love interests in every romance story ever
#i also made my main male love interest in my corny romance story 6’4 i’m making fun of myself too rn#my sil was kind enough to allow me to borrow her book and it’s been a fun read so far#i’ve spent the past year only reading older classics or autobiographies so it’s refreshing#refreshing in the sense that it’s nice to get thru a book easily for once. lol#what an honor it is for someone to trust you enough to lend you their book ☀️

Okay, The Dark Fortress Au concept: The boys let a sorcerer in and they curse the boys and transform for them into monstrous skeletal dragons and like they're able to shift down into anthropomorphic dragons at best and the curse is permanent after three years and the MC comes in after the curses due date and unintentionally woos the boys and I'm a sucker for angst and dragons so.
Oh my goodness! Dark Fortress my beloved! I keep meaning to write something more for this but I haven't had the motivation. I think you're referencing Beauty & The Beast? The parallels kinda match up so I'm rolling with it. I may have decided to try writing a little drabble cause this idea is very interesting to me...
Future Tumble Edit: Part Two is here! And the prequel is here!
The Dragons of The Dark Fortress
You didn't have many happy memories. In fact, your childhood had been ripped away when your country was conquered by a mysterious dark warlord. You had been lucky enough to escape but you didn't escape unscathed. Your mind was forever marked by the horrors you'd witnessed and tragically, you lost nearly everyone you'd ever known.
You swore to avenge what had been stolen from you. For years, you trained, honing both your mind and your body. You taught yourself how to wield a sword and how to fight.
Then, you set off for the Dark Fortress. You only brought your weapons, armour, and what supplies you would need for the journey. You weren't planning to return even if you did slay the dark warlord. There just didn't seem to be anything worth living for anymore.
The fortress itself was a lot larger than you remembered, being more akin to a mountain than a castle. Still, you were undeterred and continued onwards until you found yourself at the main gates. It took some time to scale the wall and you had to take a moment to catch your breath, but you were so close now.
A few minutes passed while you rested and mentally prepared yourself for the fight at hand. If you were lucky, you'd be able to locate him before he even realized you were here. It could take a while to navigate the passageways though, especially if you were being sneaky.
Just as you were rehearsing exactly how you would run the warlord through with your sword, an ear-splitting roar rang out. You turned just in time to spot a large blur whoosh past before it began to circle above you. You felt your stomach drop at the sight of the large beast that could only be one thing - a dragon.
It didn't give you time to come up with a plan before diving back down again.
You dodge rolled to the side, just barely avoiding his snapping teeth.
Unfortunately, you weren't fast enough to avoid it's wings or claws and you were dragged from the wall as the beast tumbled down into the courtyard. The impact knocked the wind from your lungs and it took a moment to orientate yourself.
You were pinned beneath one of the dragon's feet and it's claws felt like they were nearly digging into your flesh. It hurt to breathe and you could barely inhale without those razors pressing in further.
The dragon seemed at least partially skeletal, most noticeably in the head, but it's eye sockets were completely empty. A black substance was also perpetually leaking from it's sockets and dripping to the ground.
The beast leered closer until it's snout was nearly pressed against your face. You swear it seemed to grin at how terrified you were, as if it was enjoying tormenting you like this.
There wasn't anything you could do. You'd lost your sword in the fall and this beast was about to tear you limb from limb. You closed your eyes, resigning yourself to your fate.
"Stand down, Dirk."
The pressure on your body suddenly shifted and you risked looking around to see who the voice belonged to.
The dragon that had previously been pinning you to the rough stone was crouching not far away. It still had that unbearable grin plastered across it's skull but at least it didn't seem interested in mauling you anymore.
There was a large shadow cast from behind and when you turned to look, realized it came from another dragon. This one was larger and it's scales seemed to be covered in a tar-like substance. It only had one visible eye, with the other being engulfed in the tar, and it's cyan eyelight seemed to bore through you. With the way it's wings were folded over it's body and the way it held itself, you had a feeling this one was the leader or at least the stronger of the two.
Catching movement up above, you spotted two more dragons perching on the ramparts that were similar in appearance to the first one, although they had different coloured eyelights and one was missing a horn. All eyes seemed to be on you and the air felt charged with tension.
You turned your eyes back to the black dragon and slowly stood up.
It stared at you before leaning down and inhaling your scent. "What brings you here, mortal?" it rumbled.
Somehow, you managed to steel your nerves and keep from stuttering. "I came to avenge my country."
It tilted it's head and studied you for a moment. "All by yourself?"
You felt a wave of anger bubble up in your chest at it's taunting tone of voice. However, before you could retort, the black dragon chuckled.
"I admire your courage, however foolish it may be. Do you truly think you can slay me?" It stood up to it's full height and slowly spread it's pock marked wings in an intimidating display.
You shuddered and took a step back, only to bump into the dragon still behind you.
The black dragon stalked closer. "I thought not," it growled. "However, I can sense a darkness in your soul..."
You felt like you couldn't move, much less speak, or it would eat you alive.
"Pledge yourself to me and I will give you a new purpose..."
What else could you do but agree?
#raccoons drabbles#undertale#the dark fortress#fantasy au#dreamtale#nightmare sans#killertale#something new#killer sans#dusttale#dust sans#horrortale#horror sans#reader#can't say i've ever written dragons before#they're certainly fun#i didn't get to the anthropomorphic dragon skellies#i'm picturing them kind of like gaster blaster sans#they'd only wear clothes in this form cause their other one is too big#thanks for sending this ask!#it was refreshing to write a what if scenario#i just love worldbuilding lol

#movie has made me insanely tenkipilled#nintama#nintama rantarou#忍たま乱太郎#rkrn#I like amnesiac plots.#moroizumi sonnamon#doi hansuke#tenki#zenpouji isaku#kema tomesaburou#rikichi yamada#hama shuichirou#ugh the relative ages in this show are so fucking funny why is sonnamon technically older than rikichi#but I think he should hang out with more of the characters around his age! it’s fun to see him when he’s not in Ninja Idol Perfect mode#I like that he’s still kind of short tempered and awkward socially it’s very moe#sonnamon…him and isaku have a season 29 episode and it’s really nicely drawn god bless the key animators. but it’s one of the rare ones#where he interacts with characters outside of hansuke in ninjutsu gakuen and it’s refreshing! also i just like isaku’s bad luck being used#for fun plot points without necessarily taking his agency with it. and getting to see his stubborn side lol#I actually wonder if sonnamon would be pretty good on the healthcare side though because he tended to zatto for so long. orchestrating an#Elaborate ruse for tasogaredoki and isaku to run into each other again so sonnamon can help the health committee with stuff#maybe he gets fussy over isaku hypothetically not tending to zatto properly… whatever…shuffles off into the sunset sadly#also 19 year old freshly on the run pro ninja doi hansuke and 19 year old pro ninja sonnamon time sink meetup ^_^…#sonnamon getting all excited about finally being at an advantage or an equal level to hansuke and still getting his ass kicked.#actually wouldn’t 19 year old doi be a little harsher lol… but I think it would be fun to see a heartfelt or casual conversation between#young doi and like him. or rikichi or something it’s an interesting thought experiment. imagine if i could actually draw my ideas properly#quirinahdraws#digital#sketchdump

The plot of Scott Pilgrim Takes Off is actually better than original plot, by a large margin
#not only did we get so much more ramona screentime & growth but I actually really liked that everyone lived & changed & grew#also the handling of scott & ramona's relationship feels way more healthy. also the show was SO QUEER omg it was great#I love roxie lmao shame she & kim didn't work out. wallace was kind of a bigger scumbag but I loved him finding his own sparkle at the end#also julie? me. I look similar & constantly swear constantly. she was hilarious & her x gordon was really funny#ramona's green hair look is what I wish my hair always looked like. OH ALSO RAMONA CHOOSING HERSELF? I LOVED IT#but yeah like. this rewrite helped the story age better imo. appreciate all the constant criticism of scott dating a high schooler in his#20s like finally it's addressed as fucked. lucas lee tho lmao “she's actually 31!”#anyway excellent show 10/10 animation was so fluid. the art style matched the comic perfectly. the story was a fun & refreshing spin#scott pilgram takes off#scott pilgram vs the world#scott pilgrim#ramona flowers#tc posts

red white and royal blue was so cheesy and predictable I enjoyed it thoroughly. making banal queer romantic comedies is hard but necessary work
#sooner or later we'll start getting them with lesbians too *shakes fist in determination* imagine#nor's rambles#ALTHOUGH it would be refreshing to get a film that does not hit all these romantic comedy beats#or that would be a romantic comedy but actually good. like palm springs but gay. the big sick but gay#WHEN HARRY MET SALLY BUT GAY although that really hits the beats ahgvadhbfds#also personally i like queer stories that don't give much attention to labels and such. i think those are really important too#it's one of the reasons i'm not the biggest fan of hearstop*per (censoring so it doesn't go into the tag to ruin people's fun)#because i feel like it's just taking all the letters from the LGBTQIA and assigning each character with a letter#which is not wrong in any way and once again i am older than the intended audience it's not For Me#but i am often left craving something sort of... less defining. more free. more just being what you are and doing what you do#kind of like.. something done for the sake of the story and the art instead of just representation for the sake of representation???#that is important too!! but kinda craving stuff for us who don't really like labels as well???
