i remember when i first posted a goldies inferno animation people were like "thats not william afton anymore" because he wasn't being evil 24/7 i feel like if goldies inferno ever came out people would be surprised by how normal he acts, he even has his moments where he does a kind act im all for villains who are evil all the time, but for william i find it boring if you're taking his character down a serious route
#makes it even more surprising when he does something terrible#you think to yourself#'surely he didn't do those things'#'maybe this AU is taking a different route'#nope#his true colors do in fact show at the end

This scene stood out to me for the way Rick reacts to Tannenbaum and calling him a ¨good man¨, having a rather guilty reaction to it, which is a bit rare for him to show.
I wonder if it is guilt about having lied to Tannenbaum about his true intentions, about what he is about to say next to pretend he hates the guy or both. It is clear from his voice that he doesn't like telling Tannenbaum those hurtful things but he has to finish the movie.
It reminds me of how in "Cryo Mort a Rickver" when the adults that confuse Rick with him being their child called him a ¨good kid¨ a few times, and Rick even seems to like being called that as he is seen smiling in one scene.
But here he feels guilty when he gets called a good man and process to confess what his initial intentions were- calling himself a bad person and trying to pass off as a ¨bad guy¨.
I wonder if like in part Rick wants to be perceived as a ¨good person¨ by others but at the same time he believes he isn't capable of being good or doing good? That all that he can be is ¨a piece of shit¨ even though some of his actions show that he isn't just that?
#rick and morty#rick sanchez#rick and morty season 8#Like in a lot of ways he is still terrible but he doesn't fully see when he can be actually nice to others even if it is in occasions#Or maybe he feels like he is incapable of changing to some extent?#He gets surprised when someone tells him that he is a good person

🎶I want to boop your nose

In your pants, oh-so tight
Lie still, close your eyes, boy
So lovely, it feels so rite
I want to hold you close
Soft butt, thighs apart
As I whisper in your ear: “I wanna fucking tear you apart ❤️🔥”🎶
#the band ghost#papa emeritus iv#Cardinal copia#…I make ditties a lot#lately so many of them concern Copia#honestly I’m surprised I haven’t seen too terribly many references to ‘Tear You Apart’ concerning him#or maybe they’re there I’m just in the wrong places#anyway. he’s just so biteable ❤️

#im sooooo nervous holy shit. it's been a While since i did the whole queuing thing for an artist#and when we did it for harry i had moments were i felt truly Terrible HSJSJSJSJ and im also nervous it won't feel real#or i won't be able to like. feel grounded or present??? and just close off emotionally???#i know this is silly and ive only listened to taemin since 2020 and never religiously like i did for bt s and seventeen ofc#but yk!!!!!! it's taemin!!!!!! and obviously feel v v lucky i get to go at all (yk. godwilling everything goes well)#also if anyone has any taemin specific tips hmu dhsjsjdh i haven't looked up the setlist bc i wanna be surprised#i know all his songs i think but not all by heart?#(also everything about queuing is Stressful HSJSJD and we have to travel 3.5 hours by train first which really is a record distance#in this country GSJSJSJD)#(anyways hiiiiiii sorry)#(oh and how be at peace with what you have djjsjdd and not to regret things constantly)#(which ig with taemin im constantly like Just So Happy To Be Here but then if it's me who could've done things differently it's >:[)#also in hindsight i think i just had a ? shutdown? meltdown? at one of the harry shows rip that wasn't great#can i even say that. idk if i get those. but i was quite literally shaking crying (not throwing up!) and couldn't explain a thing#anyways i think i'll take my adhd meds so i at least won't have a billion other thoughts in my head??#i just haven't in ages but i took them today and my heart has been Pounding HSJSJS also im sweating and nervous but yk we deal#i realise im making a huge deal out of this and it will most likely be fine#it's just like. if I don't feel anything at this????? what's the point#so no pressure HDJSJSJSJDJ maybe that's not a great thought#concerts are just... tricky and so much worse still now with covid and wearing a mask as one of the only people there#also sensorily + heat wise whew. but for the best

#i will probably end up keeping the app on my laptop only#but don't be surprised if i become even less responsive than i already am. i need to separate myself from the illusion of online intimacy#somehow but i also need the creative outlet. yes i know i am a terrible person if you followed for my fandom posts#i'll try to limit the blog to that only. and this writing madness i'm experiencing#for those who might care about jo the blogger i might end up posting personal posts on @irenemaiorino#letters from stephanie*#this might amount to me not being online at all or posting every day idk what will cross my mind#maybe this is just an episode but i do think some of the points those anons were making were valid

watching Arcane without fandom interaction is really interesting actually. I remember watching Jayce's Progress Day speech in s1e04 and being so relieved he did the right thing and listened to Heimerdinger (one of the only times I ever agreed with Heimerdinger lmao). I mean, did he see the inventions he presented? A giant fuck-off punch gauntlet and a death laser? And he didn't think that would harm people? I thought it was the peak of Tech Bro Bullshit.
(as an engineer, I've heard a lot of Tech Bro Bullshit and I'm a bit more sympathetic to it/the motivations behind it. The hextech inventions shown in that episode was a prime example of Tech Bro Bullshit: something created with the genuine intent of helping people, but in a way that addresses the symptoms of a deeper, societal problem. It never gets to the root of the problem and it addresses the problem in a way that helps the capitalists (now our miners can do their work safer and faster! oh, so their boss can make them work longer hours?) The inventors never seem to recognize that their invention can do significant harm and isn't ready to go out without more testing.)
The fandom reaction seemed to be... more negative, though? Or maybe that's because I'm in the jayvik sphere more and there's more Viktor stans? I think that was one of the fandom reactions that surprised me.
I just re-watched the episode knowing the prevailing(?) fandom opinion, and I ... hm. I understand Viktor's POV and the sense of betrayal much better. I'm impressed by how quickly Jayce salvaged that speech. I think the main issue isn't the choice that he made, it's that he should've made it before he got on stage. Impulsiveness has always been a Jayce character flaw, though. I still don't think he chose wrong.
Also, for the record? Every time I insult hextech and call the inventions tech bro bullshit I am also insulting Viktor. He is one of the two founders of hextech, he's an equal partner, and he deserves to be insulted just as much as Jayce. A lot of times I see people acting like the bad hextech decisions that were made was pure Jayce, but nuh-uh. This is an equal partnership, folks
#me.txt#arcane meta#other fandom reactions that surprised me: fandom perception of silco (he's literally a drug lord guys. please stop calling him marxist lmao#fandom perception of mel and jayce (if you hate mel and/or jayce you're wrong and you have terrible taste and that applies to all seasons)#reaction to jayce killing viktor in the commune (if you heal someone and they die when you die it's OBVIOUSLY evil non-healing. cmon)#how much people like jinx (that's on me i didn't know she was big in league)#wait i just realized that the pattern here is i'm surprised that ppl consistently sided with the white ppl and against the black/brown ppl#hm. much to think about#well. maybe not that much#i guess there's also the class argument but. i mean. silco is a drug lord. he's richer than everyone in zaun#he's getting that money by exploiting her people. jinx is his kid. he literally created and headed a council just like piltover#how much of a class argument is there?#i guess if you look at it on a ... overall societal level? eh. i'm gonna be honest i dont have the lived experience to critique that#silco's one of those characters i liked and then i realized how fandom thinks of him and now i'm just annoyed when he's brought up#shame

.....huh. rheum had me do a grip strength test at my most recent appointment, which was new, and she said my results were not bad/pretty good, and next time she wanted to see the same or better, but out of curiosity i poked around what average results are expected to be and found several charts suggesting mine were significantly lower than average for my age group
#i'm on par with.. 70 year olds? apparently?#i got 46 lbs on my right and 39 on my left the first time#got lower scores for both when re-tested#unclear if rheum was using a different metric - maybe kg or sth? i could SWEAR the nurse said lbs#but maybe im remembering wrong. difficult to say as rheum hasn't added any notes to my chart#if it was kg then yeah id be roughly average. if it WAS lbs though that wouldn't be.. terribly surprising?#my hands've always been kind of shit#....... could this be why im so bad at opening jars? is it why i was defeated by a container of OJ the other week#i think it might be why i was defeated by a container of OJ the other week

as the resident guy who likes uniforms tm i have to say. these designs piss me off so bad you have no idea

#THEY'RE NOT EVEN UNIFORMS THEY'RE LIKE. PREPPY STYLED OUTFITS THAT HAVE THE ROUGHLY HAVE THE SAME PALETTE#the clashing patterns especially make me mental. clashing patterns can look cool if done properly but that clearly wasn't the case here.#bloom's especially makes me mental because the juxtaposition between her lozenged skirt and spotted tights is so evident and jarring.#AND HER SHOES??? WHAT ARE THESE IS SHE WEARING AN ADDITIONAL PAIR OF SOCKS OVER HER HEELS????#aisha's skirt looks so. out of place both in it's style and its color which is not featured on anyone else's outfit#i feel like tecna and MAYBE stella have the best uniform overall.#like i prefer tecna's usual futuristic style over the preppy one they assigned to her in the later seasons but it's not necessary terrible#these uniforms are though. i don't believe anyone likes them i would be genuinely surprised if someone wrote in the comments that they#like these specific outfits#winx#winx club

when i was having cluster headaches at the end of last year/beginning of this year i took the ring out of my conch piercing and put a flat labret in bc its a bigger gauge and i thought maybe the pressure in the centre of my ear wasn't helping (i wear a headset most of the day at work), i haven't had a headache that's lasted days/weeks in a while so i decided to put the ring back in bc i also wear a chain that doesn't look right without it and i forgot i usually wear a charm on it too so now everything is back in my ear as normal and im like damn was it always this heavy??? it's only all been out maybe 6 months n they were in for years before this but it feels so strange now
#irl rambles#info no one needed but i wanted to say into the void bc i was surprised at how heavy it was#i wanted to get a new chain with more charms on it too#my head is gonna be weighed down on one side at this rate#i have 3 helix piercings in my other ear n i got them bc i saw someone with them all the way down once n it looked cool#but i'm terrible at healing piercings so i got 3 n never got any more n now im thinking of getting maybe another 3 n filling that ear up

I've heard over and over and over again how much the 4Kids dub changed things, so I'm finally subjecting myself to watching the entire RAI dub while I work on some art commissions and cosplay photo edits, since I'm almost ready to fanfic...
... 'subjecting,' is the word I want to emphasize here.
#okay i mean yes. objectively there are Changes™ and it would be lunacy to deny that. yes.#and yes a lot of the changes are plot/universe-relevant information whose absence does change interpretation. absolutely.#however.#are those changes significant enough to the fabric of the story for one to endure the triple threat?#(voice acting; characterization; music)#not that i'm seeing so far tbh!#i already knew the voicework was terrible but the music discovery was disappointing :/#and i'm not only talking about the songs but the background tracks too; they just don't mesh well with the scenes#the music is like an afterthought rather than something that enhances the visuals#and the changes to the dialogue yes do take away plot/info but add SO MUCH personality and vibrancy to the characters#i honestly prefer the witty comebacks to the more 'accurate' lines#there is /so much sass/ in the 4Kids dub and it's quite honestly my favorite part of the series#feels kinda dead without it#then again i am still in early early s2 so maybe i'll come across something that changes my mind#ANYWAY basically i've only ever sought out the parts that interest me (va//ltor XD) in all the eng dubs#and finally got curious enough to see what everyone's talking about since i didn't really get that with v's scenes lmao#(and my being so pro-4Kids isn't childhood nostalgia -- i only watched the series for the first time three years ago XD)#(i just tend to dislike english voice acting in general - videogames; anime; movies; cartoons everything - and the 4Kids actors were a GIFT#(i went into it expecting less than nothing and was so pleasantly surprised!)#(stella pulled me in with her voice and attitude as surely as she pulled bloom into magix ^^)#withoutwords
