The Strength of Meekness: Insights from 3 Nephi 12:5
Meekness embodies humility and patience. It's the power to remain calm and composed during life's challenges. Far from being a sign of frailty, meekness reflects a refined, controlled strength.
Understanding Meekness: Lessons from 3 Nephi 12:5 In our fast-paced lives, the concept of meekness often seems outdated or misunderstood. However, in 3 Nephi 12:5, we’re reminded of its profound significance. “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth,” is not a call for weakness but a testament to inner strength. Meekness embodies humility and patience. It’s the power to remain…

Do I think that Neil pushing Todd to break out of his shell overwhelms Todd?
Yes.
Does he do it out of pure love?
Also yes.
Does it mean his actions are valid?
No.
But does it give character development?
Absolutely.
Are they 16 and don't really know what boundaries are but will develop mutual understanding for each other with time and communication and get to know that forcing each other's standards can be wrong and there are other ways of rooting for each other?
Fuck yeah.

TMA SPOILERS
BIG FLIP. Imagine pre-Apocalypse Jon coming into Elias' office, looking him dead in the eyes and going, "Hello, Jonah."
Fully realized Archivist Jon, way before Jonah expected it. Jon himself suddenly seeing that Elias is no longer a threat nor an authority. Elias realizes it at the very same time and his chest goes cold with fear. It has been so long since he experienced his very own fear. And Jon yearns to drink it all.

one thing i wish for in pnf is baljeet having a desi friend group. he only started being friends with the main group after s1 began, they weren't close before. so who were his friends before? the desi kids he grew up around because his family is very clearly still involved with their traditional culture and that includes fostering close relationships! i refuse to believe he didn't have any friends because that's just not how desis work, the desi community in any given area is very much intertwined. at the very least he has a bunch of family friends/relatives who all get together very frequently at parties and whatnot. even if they aren't "proper" friends i know he has a desi peer group hidden away somewhere.
also you're telling me a kid THAT desi didn't have ANY desi friends? bullshit.
#i'm creating ocs to make this a reality. baljeet my boy you deserve so much more than what u were given.#baljeet tjinder#pnf baljeet#baljeet is like. the poster child for desis.#also this is something i've been meaning to talk about forever but like. there's no way a kid who grew up in INDIA is that meek. like what.#i know it's the stereotype of the passive indian or whatever but like. that's a stupid stereotype.#it is literally impossible to be desi and be THAT passive. especially if you lived in south asia!!#i think people get ABCDs confused w desis who grew up/live in their native country.#and even then that doesn't make sense bc ABCDs are ALSO not passive. it's impossible to be that level of passive if you grow up around desi#like the other desi stereotype(s) i can understand bc i know where they're coming from. but indians?? PASSIVE?? where did that trope start!#the smart indian makes some sense bc the culture truly is that focused on academics.#like parents tell their kids that the career options they get are doctor/lawyer/engineer and that's it (not kidding)#so that makes sense. but like. india has one of the densest populations in the world.#more people live in india than any other country.#you can't be passive in india because there's always competition!#even in just. everyday life. if you go to the market you always argue w the shopkeeper for a lower price.#you have to fight to get places on time because everyone drives like they're trying to meet god.#at school after exams and whatnot the grades are literally placed and ranked publicly on the wall. where everyone can see.#there's no real room for passivity which is why that particular stereotype confuses me so much. it has no basis in reality!#yeah idk. baljeet sorry nobody gets you like i do.#pnf#phineas and ferb

I've started blocking people who hate any of the poets and choose to be real vocal about it, and let me tell you, best decision of my life

I am watching "My Happy Marriage" for the first time and I really want to like it but it's hard to get past the amateur level writing, and the unnecessary magical element. As a period romance it also seems to lack any adherence to the time period it chose, and it's a shame cuz I think it would be far more interesting if it solved it's drama by adhering to the societal rules surrounding marriage and laws at the time.
I'm powering through it but it feels like I'm reading a poorly researched fanfic.

Scrooge outfit: Neil, Todd, and Cameron

I will forever be indebted to anyone who draws fanarts of them in these outfits
#I will give my life for anyone who draws mittsie in these outfits; like please can you imagine someone banging on their door at odd hours#and Meeks answering the door in a flowy pink robe; sleep not fully out of his eyes as an equally sleepy Pitts is seen behind him in heart#boxers like poets don’t even say anything because they know if they do Meeks can verbally destroy them so they don’t even attempt#plus they value their grades so they try not to piss Meeks off; but like dude the mittsie fanart would go crazy in these#and anderperry both dressing like an old Victorian couple to go to sleep is so funny to me like I can see it so clearly#and the side eyes both Cameron and Charlie would give each other at bedtime every night and before they got into bed but also I could see#them just never bringing it up until like they get in a fight in the dining hall where Cameron is trying to tell Charlie to stop throwing#his dirty clothes into Cameron’s hamper so Cameron will wash them and Charlie is denying doing this and Cameron is like ‘dude you and I#both know those are not my boxers’ ‘how do I know you didn’t steal them’ ‘you literally wore them two days ago’ ‘how do you know that’ ‘you#literally rarely wear pants around our room what do you mean how do I know that’ ‘well who knows; might’ve been yours to begin with and I#stole them so I was just now returning them’ ‘I would NEVER buy boxers that tacky’ ‘exCUSE YOU our boxers aren’t tacky’ ‘your boxers that#I’m not washing’ ‘it’s like you don’t even love me’ and then rumors start that they’re gay and both pull a face of disgust like ‘you think#my standards are THAT low; I do have some dignity’ they say in unison before turning to the other like ‘what’s wrong with me?’#and then Knox would be over there by his lonesome cause he had some random roommate rather than one of these boys as a roommate so he#doesn’t get to see any of them in these outfits nor them him in his heart boxers#keating would be in the teachers wing and they would all have to rush to a scene in the middle of the night and they would all be giving#Keating a side eye like wtf is this grown man wearing ‘John. you look… that robe’ ‘yes; what a better way to appreciate the every day but#making the every day extraordinary; sometimes we must treat ourselves to truly understand life’s meaning’ ‘and that pink shit does that?’#‘well of course; its silk Kevin.’ ‘right.’#dps#dead poets society#gerard pitts#charlie dalton#richard cameron#neil perry#todd anderson#steven meeks#knox overstreet#mr keating#the poets as…

Stu and Billy do this work tactic where when doing essays for school, after each sentence they kiss, you know, to motivate each other.
They don't end up kissing at all because they make Randy write their essays for them OR they spend the whole time heavily making out on the couch while Randy is on the floor, writing their essays (he got shoved off the couch)

daily whistlebreeze until ap becomes PoV day 1586
Tumblr media
When I say Apple and Flutter aren't The Best parents, I mean it. I do fully intend for them to fuck up raising Stretch and Rustle
#warrior cats#whistlebreeze#appleshine#stretchkit#windclan#medicine cat#warrior#kit#I know daily Whis usually exists in a perfect everything-is-fine universe but I want to explore darker topics#Apple is too eager and motivated and can't understand that the kittens are YOUNG#and shouldn't be doing all the things she wants them to do. They get in some real dangerous stuff because of her#or because of her being distracted and leaving them alone#and with how Stretch and Rustle have been raised to be little terrors thanks to Apple's antics. unsupervised they are a threat#Flutter on the other hand also struggles to really understand what the kids feel#and just tries to hyper compensate and LOVES being with them and stuff but isn't really good at emotional stuff#the kits are cared for perfectly on a physical level but no adult is really emotionally taking care of them#Apple and Flutter mean well but they themselves are still young and fail to think about the long term consequences of taking care of kitten#they were fed they were protected they were loved but in the end they were still neglected emotionally#and because Apple and Flutter are the main caretakers none of the other adults really step in#because what you gonna do to deal with unruly kids?#yeah WindClan is maybe not as perfect as I depict it here I have accepted#older cats like Leaftail Kestrelflight and Sedgewhisker get annoyed at the two kids. they get into CONSTANT trouble#esp Kestrel kind hates them a bit because they love bothering auntie Whistlebreeze and thus wreck the herbs in the den#and it's not like the rest of the family helps a lot either#their auncles are Songleap who is just Apple 2.0: the same amount of danger and energy combined#the kids love her but she's not caretakes material either#Brindlewing a meek pushover whom Stretch and Rustle overwhelm very easily#Woodsong who is emotionally constipated (she worked on it and is Fine now but not Open with her emoitons)#(and also a bit of a grump about the kits too. she doesn't have the patience for this)#and Whis who is mostly emtionally well and calm and such but is busyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

hey can i ask your opinions on thrushpelt? just anything you wanna say about him :)
yea i like thrushpelt!! ive admittedly grown kind a bit of sick of some of the fandom's "soft boi who is sooo nice and perfect" characters lately (fernsong, alderheart, gray wing etc) but it hasn't really applied to thrushpelt at all i think he's a real one. i enjoy the tragedy of him viewing the kids as his own and then losing them while being unaware they are still alive in another clan (until the point of people demonising bluestar for it anyways. yeah that was fucked up of her and that's what makes it interesting. can't hate her for it personally) and also the headcanon/interpretation i've seen around where he DOES figure it out and keeps up the secret regardless. oughh. i know they're inevitably out there but im also glad i don't really see people ever acting like bluestar Owed thrushpelt romantic reciprocation because that's a miserable goddamn mindset i've seen both within the warrior cats fandom (dovewing in regards to bumblestripe, or pre-TBC squilf and ashfur) and in numerous other fandoms (listen idc that it's a silly cutscene in a children's game if i see someone post that take about the super mario odyssey ending one more time im going to get violent!!) i don't really like them as a romantic reciprocated ship all that much for this reason as i feel like it undercuts that idea of healthy rejection they're associated with. i do think people give him wayyy too much credit for responding Not Badly to rejection tho. how low is this goddam bar LOL. i like the idea of them staying friends, despite the missing kit thing. also i like bird prefixes which is always bonus points unless you're crowfeather.

I am OBSESSED with the most niche character on planet Earth. Him 👇
Tumblr media
Pargi the meek is an unusually thin and nervous troll from the game Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup. DCSS is a free open source rougelike game that has been constantly updating since 1997. It's incredible and you should play it.
Anyway, back to Pargi. He is usually found in the sewers and is super weak and apparently lives in the sewers or the higher dungeon floors as a result of being bullied by other trolls.
Tumblr media
Now, I would already just let Pargi ruin my run because of how endeared I am to him, but it gets better.
Very VERY rarely, Pargi will show up as Pargit the mighty, an unusually strong troll (I have never seen this.) And this is the in-game flavor text when you inspect Pargit. 👇
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ndkskfbdjjcbdksgs? The underdog lore??? The Mr Baseball meme????? *sobbing*
So basically Pargit will instantly fuck you up with his insanely strong claws, large rocks that he throws, and his astonishing +27 HP per turn regeneration.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I am sobbing. I love Pargi/Parghit so much. I will be making fan art of Pargi even though not a single soul on Earth loves this stupid, weak, bullied little sewer troll like I do.
I'm a grown ass adult, and something about this little troll has really done it to me. ;; Every dungeon run I do, I simply want to find Pargi. Winning is no longer the goal.

Today I'm grateful for mainly interacting with MP100 fans and fanworks in Tumblr because I found a "what is your least favorite character" video in another site and the comments made me horrified 😭 why did most comments only mention women

While i love the Eda in heat discorse that’s going on, I also love the idea of Eda being the wild witch in the streets, while Raine is the wild witch in the sheets.
(runs away) UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN!!!
Raine uses those whistling and instrument-playing skills on Eda then acts all shy and humble about it afterward as if they didn't just release the Owl Lady's waterfall
