i feel like not enough ppl are factoring in the cultural clash between laios and shuro and the many micro agressions shuro faced while being in their group. literally the name 'shuro' in itself is one

his name is toshiro 😭 lets also not forget that he has his own communication issues, in the opposite way that laios does- thats literally a factor in their argument, that his envy for laios's ability to express himself sincerely manifested as part of his distaste for him.

ig all this to say like, was their fight heart wrenching, especially when reading laios as autistic? absolutely. anybody whos ever been in laios's position knows how much it hurts to realize someone you thought was your friend doesnt actually like having you around, especially when they didnt tell you and you had no way of knowing due to not understanding their cues. but im begging yall to step back and see the nuance of this situation cause im gonna be real a lot of you are kinda just brushing over it acting like everything is toshiros fault and that hes a terrible person when in reality hes an average guy who really, really clashed with laios and it led to a very long misunderstanding due to their supremely opposite methods of communication. even laios and toshiro, after letting everything out in their fight, were able to come to an understanding and start a foundation for an actual friendship built on better communication

"cops are called because students aren't allowed to shut down campus" more lies! first of all, campuses aren't getting shut down: students can get to wherever they need to be—if they can't, it's because of the cops. but over the last few years, graduate students did thoroughly shut down campuses with strikes. columbia was again a notable center of labor action, with a 10-week strike during which TAs, discussion sections, grading, and any other graduate labor was cut out, grinding courses to a halt; sporadic picketing shut down access to campus. columbia took illegal measures by threatening to suspend all graduate students, but at no point were any cops called. other key graduate strikes took place at nyu, the university of michigan, and temple university, with no cops called despite other intimidation tactics by university administrations. this is not to mention hundreds of sit-ins, die-ins, encampments, and other protests that take place yearly across the country with no notice. yet tents honoring palestinians is just cause to unleash the police?

i hope that the discussion about student protests does not get reduced to "privileged rich kids faffing around at an ivy league school." setting aside that tenuous claim, over the last week, protests have erupted over the entire country. a few days ago, riot police beat, pepper-sprayed, and arrested NYU faculty shielding students; protests started at the university of southern california when the admin cancelled the valedictorian's speech; encampments appeared at the university of southern carolina, UT dallas, the university of maryland, the university of new mexico, IUPUI, virginia tech, the university of virginia, the university of illinois, the university of north carolina — chapel hill, the university of pittsburgh, uc berkeley, the university of michigan — ann arbor, MIT, emerson, tufts, the university of rochester, rice, swarthmore, the new school, vanderbilt university, with students arrested; students protested or walked out at miami university, northwestern, temple, the 5 claremont colleges: pomona, pitzer, scripps, harvey mudd, and claremont mckenna, stanford, washington university in st louis, students were arrested at ohio state, students were confronted by riot police at cal poly humboldt, after which they occupied campus, students were arrested at the university of minnesota — twin cities, after which faculty walked out; and yes, there are protests at the other ivies, most notably yale, with students facing mass arests after encampments, but there is also an encampment at brown, protests appeared at cornell, princeton faculty issued a statement of solidarity while students are preparing an encampment, and harvard banned the undergraduate palestine solidarity committee. there are thousands of students who are protesting for palestine across the entire country, facing harassment, arrest, and suspension in return

Glad to see them trying to solve their differences

Went through a scrolling spree down your odin sphere tag and i agree sooo much it's unreal, gwendolyn's my girl but i never coul get into her romance with oswald & you summed it up perfectly

(also yes on having gwen/mercedes & cornelius/ingway for in-game gay ships, i love ingway/mercedes the most out of the canon romances but sometimes i just wanna play with these characters like barbie dolls yknow)

Omg anon I'm sooo sorry if you sent this a while back, I haven't been on tumblr for a while bcuz I've been exhausted from my new job + commuting (I'm out of the house for like twelve hours @_@ )

BUT I'm so glad you like my rambling Odin Sphere thoughts lol. I love this game but how they handled the central love story truly vexes me. Ik they're going for that fairytale vibe but a game first released in 2007 isn't a fairytale, right, it's been developed in a modern context. Or w/e. Ykwim.

Also yeah. Barbie dolls life. What's the point of being a fan of anything if you're not imagining your guys in situations (a term which here means "non-canon gay relationships") I ask you

It’s really heartening how much people on this site came together to help Ahmed @90-ghost. He’s in Egypt now with his younger brother waiting on his mom and older brother to join them. The issue now is living expenses. Life is extremely difficult for displaced people, and the future is uncertain. If you’ve ever wondered how you can help a Palestinian displaced by the genocide, here’s one way to do so.
