One of my favorite things about being in a fandom space is when I encounter someone else out in the wild who recognizes the same piece of media.

For example: I own a Dipper Pines hat. Blue, pine tree, if you’ve seen the show you get the picture. I don’t wear it much, but it has the widest brim of my meager hat collection and shades my face pretty well so I end up wearing it when I need sun protection. This is because I’m white a saltine cracker and the sun and I cannot vibe in any capacity lest I get toasted like a cheez it. I’m working in and around one of my college campus’s greenhouses this semester, so I’ve been wearing it a lot for that reason. Now, my campus also shares one of their location with a local high school, so a few times a day during the school year, different gaggles of teenagers wander by on their way to a different class.

So I’m sitting in the dirt, yanking out weeds and vibin to my tunes in my hat. Over my jamming, I hear someone shout something and so I look up to see this teen just kinda staring at me. We made eye contact, and they slowly push their jacket out of the way to reveal a journal 3 BAG that they’re wearing. Few words were spoken (I tried to tell them I liked it but I’d completely lost my voice from having the plague so idk if they actually heard me) but it’s just so funny to be faced with the fact that other people in real life DO like the media I do. It’s like engaging in a super secret handshake to get into a club except the club is just being a fuckin nerd.

And I’m not saying I’ve now adopted that teenager because I don’t even know their name, but I am saying if they ever had a problem I’d take care of it for them.

Everyone here from Ameliorate, the new chapter is coming along well! I’m hoping to have it out tomorrow-ish, if all goes well!

the worst part about ocd and ocd-like tendencies is that you think hyper-analyzing your thoughts and constantly psychoanalyzing yourself will fix you but that's actually part of the disorder. it's the disorder. disordering.

Can someone please take me to the beach episode of my college/coming of age anime because I’m sick and tired of all this character development shit 😫

[lizzyscribbles]

Anyone here from Ameliorate, new chapter is almost done and I’m hoping to have it up tomorrow!!

I just watched the first episode of My Hero Academia Vigilante’s yesterday, and lemme tell you the contrast between this and the main My Hero timeline is so hilarious to me.

Because like, in its most basic form, the premise is kinda similar: Boy meets strong man in dangerous scenario because he tried to be a hero, man is impressed by his actions and goes. “Yes, you can be a hero, I’ll teach you.”

But the difference in responses from these two protagonists is like night and day, because you have Izuku whose like:

“YES PLEASE ALL MIGHT TEACH ME THIS HAS BEEN MY DREAM SINCE I WAS A BABY I’LL DO ANYTHING!!!!”

And then you have Koichi whose like:

“Excuse me I think tf not–are you insane?? stay away from me I got class in the morning and a job to do–me?? A hero?? Be so fr rn.”

And I feel like that captures how it feels to be a teenager vs. a college student so well.

Okay but wait I love this idea

Ambush Simulation: Deku's Vigilante Arc

I have it in my head the Vanguard ends up traveling with him for a bit...

...until Deku decides to go rogue, the Vanguard tells him that's a stupid idea, and after a series of well-intentioned but ill-spoken comments, they decide to settle their differences by fighting it out. Keeping in mind the Vanguard is by this point down to four people who are all physically and emotionally exhausted from the recent fighting and losses. Tempers are very frayed.

...

Deku: I think it would be better if you returned to an emergency shelter. You could help more people there.

Dabi: You calling me useless here?

Deku: No! No, of course, not. I just know everyone's tired and All For One's after me alone.

Spinner: It's 'cause of AFO half our friends are dead. You wanna try telling us to go home now?

Deku: Okay, I'm really not explaining this very well.

Shimura: Everyone, take a deep breath. I know we're more than a little at our wits end right now, but what I'm sure Deku here means is he appreciates our assistance, he's worried about us, and acknowledges that, as a team, it's more beneficial for all of us if we stick together.

Deku: ...

Everyone: ...

Deku: Only those first two were true.

Toga: *pulls out a knife*

Shimura: Whelp, I tried.

...

After a valiant effort to stop him because they pretty pissed at being sidelined, Deku with the multiple awakened Quirks just mops the floor with the Vanguard, and then Shimura wakes up to him rummaging through their stuff.

Deku: I'm sorry to take your supplies, but I'm hoping this will prompt all of you to go to an emergency shelter instead of following me.

And Shimura's just looking at him like:

"You son of bitch!"

...

It's even worse that they have to go back to the support team made up of All Might, Endeavor, Hawks, etc. and explain themselves.

Spinner: Yeah, a sixteen year old just stole all our shit.

...

Just saying, Deku better be sleeping with one eye open when he gets back 'cause it's not gonna be Aoyama in his window anymore.

I have such a turbulent relationship with the live action Sonic the Hedgehog movies, specifically the third one.

Because, like, on one hand, you have lines that make me cringe so hard I can’t watch. And then you have others that are so off-the-cuff and out of pocket like “Please, join me in the crab. 🦀” that I legitimately can’t help but cackle at because it is so stupid and yet so fucking funny.

And then you throw a small, anthropomorphic emo child that I just want to hug because he is so sad and I just want him to be happy and so I literally can’t NOT like parts of it.

Bada-Bing-Bada-Boom, unintentional comfort movie that I love but also hate but also kind of love.

What’s a girl to do.

I’m a grown ass adult with a queen sized bed and I literally only sleep on one half of it. The entire other half is just for the stuffed animals and fuzzy blankets. I don’t even hold all of them all the time, they’re just there like a fuzzy wall of protection.

If your 13 or older and still sleep with a stuffed animal please rb this im tryna prove a point to my friend.

Here’s a quick reminder that some days you can do everything right and still have a bad day.

You can take your meds, get out of the house, have a treat, eat nutrition meals, workout, and still cry at the end of day for no reason other than that you just feel deeply shitty.

Maybe you’re like me and you just have a uterus you can blame it on. Maybe you don’t and it’s just one of those days.

Regardless of if you have a discernible reason or not, just remember that this doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you. We’re humans, sometimes we just need to cry because we just need to cry. It’s okay. The world can wait a few more minutes and if you don’t make it to that event, it’s fine.

There’s always next time.

Sincerely,

Someone whose having a hard time remembering that today too. 💜

I remember when I first got into Epic (this was before Underworld came out, around the Circe Saga I think) I was watching an animatic of Open Arms, and there was this one comment that was like “man, I wish Polities didn’t die immediately because he’s such a cool character” and I so desperately want to find that comment now at the end of the musical just so I can go:

“Don’t you worry my friend, you’ll see him again!! Jay is going haunt us with him AT EVERY SINGLE POSSIBLE TURN!!!”

Can anyone else see an au where Penelope’s watching the suitors struggle with this bow for God knows how long and getting so fed up she literally just grabs it and just goes “be so fr guys, it’s literally not that hard why are you all so weak” then proceeds to string the bow and shoot through all twelve axes Meredith style before going “oops, guess I have to marry myself and become my own queen what a shame”, and then kicks them all out of the palace or is it just me?

Hunkering down to (hopefully) knock out the rest of a TPS chapter today. 😤 Can't give an exact ETA, but keep your eyes peeled!

The number of times I’ve had this exact same problem is absolutely absurd. This is an actual screenshot from an actual quiz I had to take and every time I look it pisses me off more.

I hate online quizzes where you have to write the Exact Right word that the quiz is looking for, doesn't account for spelling or different words that mean the same thing it's so stupiddd

The fact that Odysseus managed to silently string this bow that a veritable army of suitors have failed to do all day in a matter of minutes while Antinous is just singing his little heart out is so funny to me.

Just imagine the last thing you see is this random ass rabid guy, who somehow managed to string this impossible to handle bow you’ve been trying to deal with all day while you were listening to your buddy scheme, proceed to take said impossible bow and nail you with the head with an arrow in one shot.

Like how embarrassing is that.
