28 || she/they || Hey! You can call me Bane. This blog is a mixed bag but currently a lot of Dungeon Meshi! BEWARE: I post/reblog day-of spoilers for the anime, and tagged spoilers for the manga. This blog is also NSFW sometimes!
What I've learned from reading about grifters and conmen and the like is that they're almost never particularly sophisticated in their deceptions; their lies often fall apart if you blow on them. What they are, however, are completely brazen about it. They're depending on you to have too much on your plate to bother fact checking them; to give them the benefit of the doubt; to assume that no one could ever actually be audacious enough to lie about something that could be so easily fact-checked, so you don't need to fact check them. And what's really distressing is that, a lot of the time, it works.
April 28, 2024 - An unintentionally funny video by a zionist propagandist shows off some good organisation and discipline at the UCLA encampment for Palestine.
The long lost Gravity Falls "Next Time On," reel has FINALLY been found!
This right here is what made this show happen and the reason why every new Disney cartoon also has a next time on reel. GF's last big lost media hunt is over!
Alex Hirsch said that he was okay if this ever was to leak. So, if this goes down, blame Disney!!
being proactive w cultivating your fandom space is good but also weird because occasionally you'll see a post that's like, "we need to address [problem in fandom you have literally never heard of before]" or "I'm tired of fics that [characterization you have literally never encountered]" and you just end up nodding along and trusting that your mutuals have seen horrors you cannot fathom because you have a very extensive blacklist
one of my favorite things in dunmeshi is how chilchuck turns out to be the guy in the party with the least to hide despite how much he goes out of his way to act all secretive. like the more we learn about everyone else it seems like they’ve all got like trauma or crimes or even just oddities that they don’t share explicitly not bc they’re hiding anything, but just because it’s never come up, or it’s too much of a hassle to explain, or it just didn’t occur to them. meanwhile, Normal Man Chilchuck is finding new gray hairs every morning because his friends want to know how old he is and his darkest secret is that his wife left him for being… too secretive. like up against a monster-phile, a dark mage, a circus attraction and Schrödinger’s cannibal, him making such a big deal out of having three adult kids is kinda epic
