I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again and again until I die: the love and care that the suitor squad all have for one another without any resentment or jealousy over lucy is really really special and important
#all three of them giving their blood for her!#Art crying in jacks arms!#Quincey inviting Arthur and Jack for a celebratory night out when art and Lucy got engaged!#even though Jack AND Quincey also both proposed to her!#arts pure understanding and compassion for his friends who loved his fiancée without any resentment!#dracula daily#re: dracula#dracula

i feel like we can say both "i'm glad more hostages were brought home safely" and "i wish nobody got killed in the process of bringing those people home." it's not even self contradictory, it's saying "i don't like when people get hurt" yk
#hamas has claimed 200 people were killed and 400 injured and that some hostages were killed. given that they've been proven to have lied#about this sort of thing in the past i'm keeping my hopes up that this is another such instance and that actually very few people died (if#at all. yk it'd be especially nice if nobody died. why can't that go without saying anymore)#jumblr#bring them home now#radical compassion#is it radical really lmfao#peace activism#palestinian liberation

original quote under the cut

#naruto#hashimada#madara uchiha#hashirama senju#i am once again thinking about the uchiha's position of inequity in the leaaf#and hashirama's compassion not being enough when he can't understand the fundamental issue#draws this while listening to we are never getting back together by tylr swft#draws this while listening to somebody I used to know LMAO#not really#imagine breaking up this way tho. cringe#not ded just between hyperfixations#i love this quote for madara. this has been sitting in my folder forever. i can't read it without thinking of him#that and that one other quote thats just. and all my devotion turns violent#yes king go apeshit#me at anyone facing discrimination: aren't you tired of Being Nice#I AM#myart

Every Boromir hater makes my enormous love for him grow stronger. Sorry you couldn't understand him, I get him tho and we're holding hands and the whole of Gondor is laughing at you
#lotr#boromir#tbh i think id actually have a good time chatting w a boromir hater if they knew and understood the material but still hated him#cuz most people who dislike this man do because of very shallow reasons#'he was upset looking down at narsil' one can only wonder why that has baggage for a gondorian and the stewards son#'he didnt accept aragorn at first' yea i bet when a dirty ass ranger claims the throne of a kingdom without having lived there#when your fam took care of it for several generations it doesnt feel super great and you Might be a bit upset and worried about it#'he tried to take the ring from frodo' despite disagreeing w the councils decision he still earnestly followed them to destroy the ring#and he only fell after weeks of traveling as the ring whispered to him threats of destruction#one that unlike the rest of the fellowship was already Actively happening and had been happening for a long time#you see ur cities fall and people die everyday as the 1st line of defense against ultimate evil and we tell you not to use a perfect weapon#while said weapon tells you yes it will fix everything just grab it go on boy#and echoes words your father has been pushing onto you all throughout#it feels like people just have no sympathy compassion or understanding for all he's gone through or for the power of the ring#deep breath. im ok#im normal about boromir and my heart doesnt shatter at every rewatch of his death#id have followed you my steward.

experiencing empathy for the first time at age ten and being completely floored. most relatable autism moment of this show for me tbh
#wordgirl#tobey mccallister#video#autistic headcanons#i love that he almost slipped into the american accent he uses when hes terrified lmao#boy has NO idea how to act without getting aggressive or smug#also as much as i love tobecky i do wonder if hes got a crush on katie based on how hes acting lol#which would be cute! either way its good he has compassion for a non-super human

when someone has it drilled in their head from childhood that they are a black sheep and an island and cannot trust anyone in the family other than their sibling and parents, that no one else will truly be there for them or love them as they deserve to be loved, trying to be the first one in the family to break through that and love them well and be someone they can trust is an uphill and thankless battle but it's worth it because i love them and i know they love me. "please let me lance that wound and clean it or it'll kill you" but they have to give me permission to do it and keep choosing to give me that permission. for both our sakes, because we need each other and cannot afford to not have each other. but these things cannot be forced. you cannot save people you can only love them. and so on and so forth
#loving people well is a skill. loving people without guile and with warmth and true affection and compassion is a skill and it is a rare one#it was given to me by people who are now dead. and all i can do is try to share that skill with others#to teach them how to love and be loved well. selflessly and wholly. without artifice and with understanding#but you have to let me do it. you have to be open to being loved well. to learning how to be loved well. or it wont work

ep 43 had me tearing up in a fucking shopping centre ‼️‼️
b+w alt version that I truly couldn't decide if I liked it more . Also I included a lot of thoughts in the tags but they're somewhat incoherent<3
#i dont know what i expected but i was waiting for a friend and too excited to wait until later#malevolent podcast#john doe#john doe malevolent#john malevolent#malevolent fanart#grimm art#ep 43#ep 43 left me with a lot of thoughts ... i didnt quite like how much of a recap it felt like at times but that might#be because ive been relistening and like yeah everyone knows that john 🙄 but that's not the case for everyone and with monthly uploads#things get forgotten easily#i find the discussion of “humanity” so interesting because John has shown that without someone that he has forcibly grown to value as an#equal... something he cannot do as the king of yellow as he is superior to all of his realm and presumably stays out of other elder god's#anyway. without that equality and enviroment to grow he fails to reach his goal of compassion and falls onto old ways.#John. The King in Yellow. shown by both times each has found themselves in human form do not just crave power and influence!!!#THEY CRAVE COMMUNITY!!! an endrich being not born or raised with nothing but power and ego#CRAVES COMMUNITY.#His goal of “humanity” is not a selfless goal like John projects - it is ultimately somewhat selfish as he does not want to be alone!!#which makes this desire so much more human#i don't know maybe this is just me spelling out whats already there but the way john and the witch argued about humanity frustrated me#it felt like they were missing the point or that perhaps the “good/evil” “black/white” retoric was already realised by me and john needed#realise it himself . which is fair !!!#i dont know!!!!#the witch was talking about how bad everyone was and how humanity is cruel and john was talking about Lily (#who also frustrates me how shes used in the plot somewhat she was literally just a nurse doing her job bro#) but to John - yes internally he is struggling with his moral greyness and im so proud of him for growing being himself SO PROUD#JUST.!!! he wants community. he needs community. he loves his friend. 'humanity' at its core does not matter as long as you try to be bette#and i think thats awesome and i really enjoyed the episode#guhh im rambling enjoy my tag rambling i dont know i want john to have more friends :(#yorrick can be another friend godd i love you yorrick so silly

I feel like when uplifting a member of the Golden Trio, sometimes people will actively downplay the others strengths. With Harry specifically, people will praise his intuitiveness and cleverness, but will insult Hermione’s intelligence to try to make it even more of a feat than it already is. With Hermione, people will praise her intelligence and then downplay Ron and Harry’s intelligence.
I find this mostly annoying, but also counterproductive, each character is incredibly valuable on their own and downplaying another is just not necessary, ESPECIALLY since all members of the Golden Trio are needed, they’re stronger together than they are apart, and it’s irritating to see the others being diminished for no real reason.
What one member lacks, the other makes up.
#the golden trio work as a wheel each member being a cog in said wheel#take out a cog and the wheel doesn’t move#and then they DIE painfully and slowly#Hermione is the smartest and that’s okay!!!!#Harry is the most intuitive and that’s also okay!!!!#characters can be smart without other charaters being dumb!!#Ron is their moral compass but his morals are also questionable#Ron is also incredibly intelligent btw#Harry Potter would NOT fw you for talking about Hermione or Ron like they’re stupid or not as valuable#Hermione Granger would NOT fw you for talking about Ron or Harry like they’re stupid or not as valuable#‘people’ being TikTok users and certain corners of tumblr but more of the former#golden trio#harry james potter#hermione granger#ron weasley#it sickens me to know that people don’t appreciate how important they are to each other

[ cw: violence mention / death mention / ]
Will never stop thinking about how Leo, all alone in an endless void and being beaten again and again and again by the only other living thing around, still finds comfort in that space. The situation he was in was completely hopeless, and in any other circumstances he would not have escaped, at least not fast enough to save him from permanent (or even fatal) damage, be it physical or mental.
And yet, despite the bleakness of his situation, despite the agony and helplessness, all he needs is one glance at a crumbled photograph, one glance to remember his family, and that’s enough of a reason for him to smile.
Maybe that’s why his powers center around manipulating space - because no matter how much space is between them, no matter how dire his own situation may be, just the thought of his family, alive and okay, is enough to give Leo hope.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rise leo#the prison dimension is horrifying on its own#add in a monstrous being that towers over you and has vowed to ensure your suffering?#god I can’t imagine how scary that is#Mikey opening the portal was a miracle because if he hadn’t managed it there#it’s really up in the air what could have become of Leo#personally I subscribe by the theory that you straight up can’t die in the prison dimension#so it’s a prison in all ways#but the thought of a Leo who manages anyway who adapts and continues to have hope despite it all…#Leo saying he’s nothing without his family is a double edged sword really#because the thought of his family alone is all he needs to live. to hope.#to smile#nothing without them…but they’re EVERYTHING to him#and maybe he doesn’t realize it but…the feeling is mutual#one thing too is that hope that comforts Leo so much is not just that#should he think his family needs help - that hope can turn into determination#I’m unwell about this family#actually on my point of their powers - I truly do think the abilities tie in not only to their personalities#but to their relationship to family and love in general#kinda like love languages in a way#Mikey with his chains and time abilities values being around his family the most - he wants them to experience living in the moment togethe#Donnie is someone who is 100% a gift giver to show his love - his constructs are exactly that aren’t they? gifts of his mind#Raph is someone who willingly bears the weight of the shield - he protects his family like the best big brother possible#and Leo - he goes off on his own a lot but his mind is constantly on his family anyway#like a sailor at sea no matter how far he travels the compass always point in one direction - and for him that compass points home#even if he can’t make it back - it’s still there#and that’s enough

As you fight for human rights, be sure you aren't doing so in a way that excludes other people's accessibility and safety rights. Wear a mask to protests. Do not block disabled access points. Do everything you can to make protests inclusive for all. emojis: black heart, blue heart, masked, spoon, wheelchair symbol

My best girl Rose Tyler who loves so fiercely and so well they could never make me hate you
#she gets characterized (even within the narrative by Martha and others) as just a dumb blonde with a crush but she isn’t!!! there’s so much#more depth here!!! love and compassion and mercy are her superpowers!!!! there is no one she can’t feel empathy for even a Dalek!!! even#the man responsible for the death of his kind!!! she can look any monster in the eyes and see the glimmer of light within and without that#quite literally everyone in the DW universe would probably be dead. and we haven’t even gotten to the time she became a time god so save#the man she loved. rose tyler everybody#rose tyler#doctor who#tenrose

I love imagining a young Sarek meeting Amanda Grayson and instead of being like "oh I'm in love" he very logically decides "alright, now that I know this woman exists I will be wholly unberable if I do not have her in my life"
And you know what he's right
#sarek#star trek#tos#spock#vulcan dad#sarek x amanda#spocks parents#sarek the ambassador would've turned into sarek the annoying inquisitor/cop real fast#headcanon#vulcan x human#no one would've wanted to work with him#man's stubborn as is#without Amanda or Perrin's compassion#kindness#understanding#unbearable#st#vulcan#ambassador sarek
