i don’t mind suspending my disbelief for leverage’s person-sized ventilation shafts bc that’s pretty standard for the genre, but that doesn’t mean i won’t laugh a bit at some of the egregiously large vents. particularly in the crowning acheivement job (lev: red s2 finale) because - well just look at this lol! harry and parker, two adults, can kneel side by side in those vents. parker can sit upright.


that museum was made for vent crawling purposes. that’s just an extra room in the museum they forgot to decorate. the leverageverse has a thief union that successfully lobbied for a better working environment. these vents double as a playground for museum-goers’ children. i was crying with laughter thinking about this and harry’s vent crisis was NOT helping me remember that there was a serious heist thing going on lol, i love this show.
#leverage redemption#leverage#parker leverage#harry wilson#harry wilson leverage#parker#wren speaks#leverageposting#the sun roofs (or are they just lights?) really get me lmao#ALL of the person-sized vents are unrealistically large so this is not criticism! this is a generic convention!#vents are not human-sized and clean or remotely safe enough to reliably crawl through irl#but basically every building in every crime drama has comfortably person-sized vents#usually for knee crawling not even people lying on their stomach bc that’s difficult to move and looks sillier#and that thin layer of the ceiling under the vent is usually surprisingly built well enough to support a persons weight#and there’s no fans or rats or dust or bugs or that foil tube stuff i forgot the word for#and it’s often oddly well-lit. and that’s okay! it’s fiction! we’re having fun!#sewers tend to be unrealistically large + accessible + well-lit etc in fiction too.#anyway my point is i’m not saying this as criticism! just a neutral obserativion of something i found funny!

you always land on all fours
#umineko#umineko spoilers#ikuko hachijo#ikukos turn for a more serious piece... the old man has reigned for too long#now. INCREDIBLY LONG INCOHERENT TAGS RANT INCOMING FAIR WARNING HAS BEEN GIVEN:#it makes me so so sad how little discussion there is about specifically ikuko because imho she fits so neatly into a lot of the more#overarching Big Themes of the game in a way that i have not ever really seen people take notice of or point out in a meaningful way#like even just off of the top of my head. the significance of names and what it means to go by a name that's Not Yours (she has like 4+)#what it Means to be a witch how it represents a person's deepest insecurities and flaws & how its at its core a coping mechanism#the fact that it takes two to create a universe and trying to do it on your own anyways has the capacity to bring you intense misery#^ (how she's shown to be extremely dismissive of her own work and skill until a collaborator comes into her life and helps/encourages her)#and even the family/patriarchy/misogyny stuff that is so prevalent in the rest of the game comes back around to her. even her Only Friend#(young&stupid atp to be fair) remarks that shes Weird for being unmarried + the little she does say about her past invites the question of#to what extent her self-image stems from her family deeming her a freak outcast & effectively disowning her while celebrating her brothers#and i have lot in my mind about the witch thing specifically because i think her particular situation is very reflective of what umineko's#entire magic system and fantasy facet as a whole is meant to represent for an individual. from what little we see of (what is presumably)#her Real personality she is shown to be deeply self conscious in a way that is JARRINGLY diametrically opposed to both 1.) what we see in#featherine and 2.) what we see when she is acting as a Public Figure. because both of the above are very much purposeful acts that she is#putting on in order to obfuscate her true self. and i have always been very resolute & adamant about not totally equating her to featherine#not only because im very firmly in the camp of “featherine is the avatar of the Pen Name & tohya is part of her too” but also very much b/c#i feel very strongly that the stark differences between the two are very centrally relevant to her character & her psyche. as is the case#with most other witches featherine's personality traits serve to reveal/magnify a lot of ikukos inner workings by playing on her#insecurities/reversing them e.g. ikuko being very quick to downplay her skill/achievements becomes featherine being the COMPLETE opposite#to the point where she barely registers even other witches as living beings rather than just fun touys. BUT even though i do champion the#ikuko/featherine separation so hard i ALSO think it is purposefully relevant that at first glance the line between them seems so blurry#her introduction implying a more nebulous separation between her reality/fantasy counterpart is i think is an intentional move on her part#like it is part of the front she is putting up when acting as the Author. as opposed to Ikuko the person who we (in a way ironically very#similar to the way that the Real Battler is presumably only shown during the boatscene) only very briefly get to see take up screentime#which even on a meta level lines up very well with her apparent underlying nature as a like. extremely private largely reserved/shy person#hit tag limit but if by some miracle anyone is still reading this thank you... please see ikuko with the love she deserves... ok ily byeee

Jason finally giving into affection re: Bruce but he does it Mandalorian style. which is to say he headbutts Bruce so hard he breaks his nose and then presses their foreheads together while Bruce bleeds everywhere. somehow this is cathartic for them both.
#bonus points if this is right after some large fight together#love how in mando culture#a headbutt is basically the same thing as a kiss#a platonic kiss sometimes for the record!#so sometimes#when you break someone's nose with a headbutt#it can be construed as a very violent but genuine gesture of affection#anyway#back on my mando bullshit#bruce wayne#batman#dc#batfamily#jason todd#red hood#and like#bruce LETS him break his nose#and just lets him headbutt him#like if jason's affection is only done this way#then that's fine with bruce right

AhHA! Finally gotchu! *quietly slides mimics au sketches across the forest floor* 🫶^u^


Extra sneakiness ✨:
- Hey Glitch,, whatcha. *cough* Doin over there??
- ,,Keferoning … - I think.
#transformers#tf mimics au#tf jazz#yall/ don’t even mind the ramble but#to me/ the definition of Keferoning is probably loosely related to the phrase#•Wanting to do something creative. / Being scared. / And doing it anyways. 🎉✨•#very chaotic good sorta energy 😂#I’m at that point where I’ve got like 2 large wips on the top shelf#precariously balanced on top of 20 million other concepts I wanna finish#and my ladder just finished falling apart like a Lego set#sound effects and everything 😭#Have I mentioned how time is my greatest enemy yet??#cause it is#and I would lovingly fight it to the death for an extra hour of crafting time#🫶😌

oisín hakinvar my mind is spinning with thoughts of you. you’ve gotten buff over the summer maybe for your own sake, but if the talented and beautiful diviner you’ve had a crush on since that first history of glyphs class one thursday morning in freshman year notices your tats and says hey, then what a win! right? who cares if you feel like she’s hiding something? or she runs away from you. or your party rogue gets bossier and angrier and you feel like she’s hiding something for you too. you keep a low profile, get bored in the auditorium while your crush’s friends do all these crazy bits—they’ve been killing it helping their party cleric campaign for student president, by the way—and you’ve had the lot you have for long enough to know that especially when she doesn’t get what she wants, kipperlilly gets mad. now she’s mad enough to cuss her opponent out in front of both your parties and. well. you aren’t by any means inexperienced, but you haven’t saved the world thrice. so you try to deescalate before this becomes a real shitshow and you just. watch as these intrepid heroes all square up in their cleric’s defense. and maybe something nags at the back of your mind, of a fight, of giants and sweetness and a cable knit sweater stained with blood, or maybe it can’t because you can’t remember the truth, or maybe or maybe or then their rogue starts hissing at you? you’ve met him maybe once? anyway. with all that over, oisín! your crush, the literal elven oracle, says she thinks you’re cool! you catch her eye, or try to, while her friends aim her head your way, and despite that, or maybe even because of it, you ache a little for a friendship as comfortable and familiar as theirs. but you have the lot you have. so you send an apology through a pointed finger and walk away.
#oisín hakinvar#oisin hakinvar#i cherish so lovingly and urgently the plausible deniability of oisin’s evilness#everything ive seen of him has pointed largely toward his being cool and fun and normal#i love him. i love him#fhjy#fantasy high junior year#fhjy spoilers#fantasy high junior year spoilers#d20#dimension 20#d20 spoilers#dimension 20 spoilers#fantasy high#fantasy high spoilers

had an interview for a plant job in Nevada and afterwards the interviewer emailed me a list of all the known plants there confirmed by the organization and I keep considering responding with ‘Wow, and all these plants are running casinos you say?’ and every time I restrain myself
#i probably could do it because the interview went very well and we just talked plants for an hour#he read me so well dude at one point he asked me what my favorite basal angiosperm was#and I was like I’m gonna be honest it’s gotta be that one singular shrub found only on an island off the coast of Australia#that has no vessels only trachieds for moving water around like it’s some kind of pine tree#breaking news: local shrub must push water through a bunch of tiny tubes instead of a mix of tiny and large tubes. imagine doing this#i looked it up and it’s Amborella. that’s the plant in question

the eddie kissing buck first propaganda needs to be stopped at all cost ✋I know i know, i'm probably going to be taken out back and shot several times BUT hear me out:
buck needs to get off that squeaky spinning wheel and for that he needs to be the one initiating Something -either love confession or kiss or both i'm not picky- because as my good friend Bobby (#rip) said he's always been the one going with the flow and not knowing how he even got into a relationship in the first place so him breaking that pattern is essential to his own personal growth. he hasn't initiated a first kiss on screen a single time. he's always been either caught by surprise (taylor and tommy), or been asked out on a date without necessarily expecting it (ali and natalia), and even his first date with abby mostly happened because of external pressure (hen and athena cornering them), and she ended up being the one to kiss him first later on.
and for eddie it's the opposite, he's always been the one initating pretty much everything with his love interests: calling shannon in the first place and then kissing her first, asking ana and marisol out on a date. He's always had to make that choice for himself, and buck pretty much jumped any time someone showed interest in him and only started considering his own feelings when things started to get rocky in his relationships. So them actually switching that because buck is that sure of his feelings for the first time, oh that would be so juicy, so good, so delicious.
anyway this is not me starting discourse ❌ because i hate that but just me officially campaigning (at the very last minute) for buck initiating the love confession and/or their first kiss. thank you for your consideration 🙏
#i feel like this idea probably started during s3-4 which made sense at the time and then got adopted by the fandom at large#which you know understandable#but then we got new information and new patterns and buddie kinda needs to break those patterns#because that's what their story has always more or less been leading toward#to be fair i think eddie kissing him first would work ONLY if buck gets his feelings realisation beforehand on his own#otherwise it would be a bit disappointing for them to basically give him the very same start as previous LI but what do i know#also i believe eddie's cute mouth needs to be kissed gently and softly is that so wrong? 😔#granted at this point i'll take whatever we get without any complaint when you see me cheer eddie kissing him first just look the other way#buddie#911#txt.

I recently saw a post on tiktok that talked about how Jason Todd fans are constantly ignoring Jason's actions and not recognizing that his ideology is inherently right wing. Ignoring the first point because I'm gonna be honest Jason is a fictional character and I don't have to preface my enjoyment of him with a thousand disclaimers about how he has done bad things before because no other fan of anti-heros in this fandom are expected to do that. It is so wild to me to single out Jason Todd as having an ideology that is inherently right wing when we are discussing the dudebro power fantasy central of comic books.
Like I'm sorry, but Batman isn't exactly the leftist dream either. He's a billionaire who spends his time fighting crime extra judiciously. You can look me in the eye and say that he's a good billionaire, but then it would be wild to single out Jason because he's supposed to be a noble gangster archetype. And if he can't be viewed as being a "good" gangster then I'm sorry there are no "good" billionaires.
It's also important to stress that Jason's ideology has never once been about killing everyone who does bad. It's about who we allow to suffer while we are trying to find the greater good in the ba guys and mass murderers the system lets out. Which I'd argue is a view that centers more so around how the poor and those trying to live there lives are hurt when the system fails.
And where has this idea that Jason Todd fans don't read his comic come from. I'm gonna be completly honest Jason doesn't have a single solo run outside of RHLD unless you count Task Force: Z and yet every Jason Todd fan I know has scoured comics to find even half a glipmse of him.
#You can't just make shit up about a character because you don't like their fans#And having beef with a character who has largely had all of his actually interesting complex traits taken away from him is wild to me#I wish Jason was as big o an issue as Jason haters think he is then we migh actually get some fucking content#red hood#I'm trying to be a calmer person#jason todd#Also belief that a person should be killed does not equal belief that the state should be able to kill people#when has jason ever been agaisnt rehabilitation like actually point me to the panel or run

this is the stupidest crossover possible but I want Tim to make House his doctor
yes that House
why? He needs someone who is very good, will not give up or send Tim out to a different specialist just because his medical condition is difficult, will not be overly concerned about the danger Tim puts himself in, and will lie on Tim's medical records AND to Batman/Bruce Wayne/all of the Bats without hesitation or fear.
House is and will do all of those things without hesitation. He has no shame, no boundaries, he WILL get into a public fight with Bruce Wayne if it means keeping that man out of his patient's (and House's) business. He will help Tim lie to and gaslight the rest of his family without hesitation.
in exchange, Tim is his favorite patient. Not because they get along, necessarily, Tim is a know-it-all little shit and they constantly bicker and House hates how practically every facet of Tim's existence is a lie (and Tim thinks House is a smug know-it-all jackass who is needlessly cruel and callous bc he thinks the world owes him and never delivers just bc he's in pain, news flash a lot of people are in pain and manage not to be assholes) BUT, 1, Tim brings him really interesting cases and problems, and 2, Tim NEVER lies to House about his medical conditions or what he was doing when they happened.
He lies about literally almost everything else under the sun TO everyone else, but he is 100% completely upfront and honest about his medical history and what is going on with him with House.
admittedly it takes a while for House to realize Tim ISN'T lying to him because some of the shit he says is completely insane ("the vigilante thing is pretty obvious but what do you MEAN you got the Apocalypse virus TWICE, AND SURVIVED, AS A FOURTEEN-FIFTEEN YEAR OLD")
but once he realizes Tim doesn't ever lie to him, he becomes House's favorite patient because at least TIM gives him all of the data he needs as best he's able the moment he asks. At least House doesn't have to waste his time following up on bogus information or figuring out the truth, he can just get right into the meat of the medical issue at hand.
also it's so fun to lie directly to Batman's face, know the man knows, and know he can't do anything about it
#tim drake#house md#I just think it would be funny#not sure how he'd feel about the rest of the family#he and Damian would not get along well#he and Jason might#Dick and Duke are too 'nice' for his tastes#he's not afraid of Cass#probably doesn't like her that much either tbh#he doesn't like that she can read him#and then just tells people when he's lying or in pain#she means well but lies are protective and help keep some things private#and he doesn't like being scrutinized#Jason is probably his favorite because they're both assholes#and Jason can actually rile Tim up and bully him (affectionately)#he hates Bruce so much#the man's need for control vs House's utter hatred of being controlled#Bruce keeps trying to steal or look at Tim's records without his permission#even though Tim is an adult and can make his own decisions#House gets ferally protective over Tim because this is HIS patient and Bruce is a fucking JACKASS#they probably do end up in a public fight at some point#because Bruce needs to keep a public face while House does not#Stephanie and Jason watch while eating popcorn#in Tim's room#Stephanie and House are largely ambivalent towards each other#they lob insults as greetings and leave it at that

One of my favorite things about the cav!Ortus chapters is the way they show us how hard Harrow tries to look strong for Gideon. Like, the details from the shuttle ride over alone!
Vs. her level of planning ahead when she has someone to impress
And of course, her trusting him to help her manage her schizophrenia.
And I'd posit that, at least in part, it's because she already thinks Ortus pities her, and she therefore doesn't have as much to lose with him.
It seems like she gets the same energy from Crux.
Harrow appreciates his help and his investment in her sanity, but she hates this vulnerability, any softness directed at her. Harrow is so desperate to have Gideon feel anything - fear, hatred, anything - besides pity for her. Harrow, when confronted, admits her condition to the Fifth, and in the Pool Scene itself Harrow doesn't open up about her hallucinations. She clings to Gideon's perceived enmity and begrudging respect even when it hurts her. And I just can't wait to see her deal with Kiriona, who has literally been in her head.
#idk if my point is coming across. My point is largely that they are my brain go brr and I love Tamsyn Muir#the locked tomb#griddlehark#harrow the ninth my beloved#htn#Gideon nav#harrowhark nonagesimus#ortus nigenad#If anyone says that they think Harrow didn't have them in canon gtn it's an instant block btw. I don't think that's popular but it's wrong

saw a picture of some flowers and had this idea, was supposed to be just a throw away idea but well, tried to make it presentable on a whim bc the flowers looked nice
(totk rewritten "botw2" enviroment concept for an area in the underground)
(here without the .. partial and rough UI)

#ganondoodles#zelda#art#tloz#loz#ganondoodles rewrites totk#botw2#dont want to sound pretentious#but man ... its kinda easy to think of really pretty ideas to make each area soemthing special#i cant believe the udnerground is as bland as it is#anyway in my rewrite its not a giant inverted doubling of the surface map with its points of interest ALSO repeated#its largely seperate and much harder to access caves that soemtiems get really big#unsure if this would be a boss arena or just a very pretty sight#maybe theres some botw sonau ruins that survived#with bits of hints that they hid from the shiekah here and eventually died out#everything being overgrown in these flowers#both pretty and haunting

At some point in your life, there will be a moment where exactly - or near exactly - half the people in the world are younger than you, and half the people are older.
And I think that moment should be the one your soulmate Mark appears at, not at birth or puberty or something. Both because at birth is kind of boring but it's also very you-centric and soulmates are about the thing outside of you being a part of you, and I think it would be nice to include The World.
But also I think it would have fascinating implications for scientific and social studies. Longevity trends tracked by the average age soul marks appear. Tragedies causing a rash of recent marks to disappear (because the people are no longer the middle). Marks appearing early during baby booms.
#soulmates#i just think it would be neat#and let people survive their teenage years#and discover who they are before they get told who they're matched with#gives everyone a chance to fall in love naturally#AND best of all#it means YOUR mark may appear now but if your soul mate is younger than you#it wouldn't appear for them yet#meaning a new dynamic and honestly less stress i think#because if you fall in love with someone not your soulmate you wouldn't necessarily know#unless you were the exact same age somehow#which tbh since soulmates isn't romantic a large portion of the time#twins probably share a mark#in this world you can have as many soulmates as you want btw#you can have pets be soulmates too but their mark appears when#they're the middle point for their species#i should really sleep#nightblogging

Sign i saw recently had a bunch of paint worn away with lichen in its place, however i unfortunately did not have my phone on me 😔😔
in an alternate universe where science funding is stable and abundant regardless of monetary gain we have already gotten to the complex root of which lichens enjoy signs but only the letters or only the sign and what about the letters or sign they prefer and this haunts me
#i can see it in my minds eye. signs in a row in the same roadside or field or something preferably near a large water source#signs are the same but with slightly different paint or colors#ideally two copies of each sign one facing the sunrise one not#leave them there for years#come back periodically and measure lichen enjoyment or preference#eventually take the signs down and measure the biomass on them and where and stuff#it could be so good. would take decades but also minimal effort to maintain since the lichens crave deterioration#maybe the signs say what the experiment is#(near a large water source or coastline since those lichens tend to be more fruiticose/obvious and have a higher biodiversity)#alternative experiment ive considered before. just going to the local DMV or whatever department of a place takes old signs down#and saying Give them to us. The old signs we want them#and looking for ones with lichens and where the replaced sign is#but a controlled study would be so cool#my hypotheses include:#-some lichens enjoy the letters because they enjoy darker colors that heat up marginally and that makes a difference in a microhabitat#-some lichens prefer different paints because the way they erode provides sticking points or sticky surfaces that accumulate symbionts#-some paints erode and exude some kind of nutrient and lichens love a good eroded nutrient#-some paints erode and exude some kind of marginal toxin that kills the symbionts before they can take hold#-some paints change ph values as they age (some species love a good ph on a surface)#control would be no paint or lettering. which might also eventually get some lichens tbh#a study in Chemi Calls if nothing else#lichens#asks
