ahhhhh
Not comic related, but ever since the RWD finale, one of the council of elders members on NADDPod has made their name a RWD reference, which I thought was neat
HUH??

Sort of a weird ask, but I've recently put together a list of media to show my nephew and realized that Sailor Moon and technically some of the horror manga on the list were the only "girly" options. What are some recommendations of good stories that were marketed more toward girls I might have missed out on or forgotten?
I'm not a great person to ask that specific question because the categorization of media as "girly" or not is something that hooks into a large space of artificial gendering that I categorically dismiss as Stupid and therefore mostly ignore, but if I really flex my brain I can additionally recommend She-Ra and the Princesses of Power plus Steven Universe

Hi red! Curious about the last few strips of aurora and the BOAT. Why the lateen sail? And are those hydrofoils?? Or was it more of a design than a practical decision? How is that boat designed to workkk
Outriggers for stability at high speeds, a lateen sail because my sailing buds said they liked them a lot. Mostly the ship works by magically controlling the wind and water around it, which basically negates the need to re-angle the sails or do any other shenanigans.

I rewatched an old charity stream and had a question: do you think My Immortal was genuine?
I didn't at the time I read it, but at this point, having watched a BUNCH of videos about fake My Immortal authorship confessions where every single one of them claims it was a joke and Bad On Purpose, my contrarion ass is inclined to believe it was, in fact, legitimately sincere on the part of the writer.
Sometimes a thing gets written because the writer really, really wants it to be good and make sense to the audience. Sometimes a thing gets written because the writer profoundly enjoys the act of writing it, and the audience is entirely secondary. Most writing is usually a combination of both motivators, but early online fanfiction especially skews heavily towards the latter; things get written because the author 100% loves writing it, exploring what they're putting in the story, etc.
Parodies are almost always written with the former motivation, with the audience reaction being centrally focused. A parody writer envisions their audience picking out their clever jokes and laughing along with their insights. Jokes aren't generally made purely for the joy of telling them, but for the laugh they receive in response.
I think My Immortal reads like something firmly from the latter category; a young teenage girl gleefully enjoying writing everything currently appealing to her - looking hot in rad outfits, going to cool concerts, hunky boys kissing her (and maybe… each other??? 😳) and generally dealing with the trials and tribulations of being the center of the universe. Fanfic is exactly the place to indulge that impulse, and I hope she had a great time writing it. And maybe indulged in a spellchecker eventually.

there was a post you reblogged a while ago about a webcomic. but now i can’t find it. totally a normal spaceship? i’m getting the name wrong somehow
Time To Orbit: Unknown! Not a webcomic, but a very intriguing chunk of longform sci-fi prose. Be warned that it hooks into the ADHD brain and puts you in Time Prison until you're done.

A bit of a broad question, but is there an afterlife or belief of an afterlife in Aurora? I was pondering upon the implications of Kendal’s dream and this just popped up.
Nobody's ever mentioned one!

Look. Currently at 1.18.22 and-
I can get behind the literal super saiyan blue transformation, but the whole "do the funny Gear 5 by committing seppuku"-? Girl you SURE you dont have neurodivergence? Cause I have autism and "kill the self for temporary free ascension" is peak (  ◕_◕) if u ask me
And then you do this
Tumblr media
Girl. Girl thats a diagnosis and a half. You made a COMPLETELY BLUE MELON like- i can SMELL the neurodivergence on you. I thought your heightened power level was cause, you know. "Chaotic neutral asexual girl who becomes the queen of the underworld when its halloween AND is also slightly insane and peak >:3c". Adding autism to the mix is basically 2 more digits on the power level.
Now if you excuse me i need to figure out at what point the void dragon stops being a bad guy SPECIFICALLY because the entire floof squad has less self-preservation than a minecraft creeper
I got ADHD bud, "burn yourself out for days in a burst of unbelievable power you cannot possibly replicate or do on command" is my final smash
