some people choose to believe jinu could've pushed off rumi in the bathhouse when she had a sword to his throat but those people are living in a delusion. that man fights like a cornered animal and only out of necessity, meanwhile rumi has a lifetime of martial arts training under celine and magic powers to boot. he couldn't throw her off in a fight if he wanted to, which he doesn't, because her being stronger than him gets him hard. thank you for coming to my tedtalk

The biggest piece of fashion advice I can give is that sometimes you should intentionally wear something that may make you feel silly or that you are unsure about. This is for a couple reasons, but they can all really be boiled down to:

1) If you already make yourself wear something that makes you feel silly, people around you will gradually get used to you wearing things they may think are strange, to the point where they don’t feel the need to comment on it.

2) If you end up feeling silly about an outfit during your day, but you had liked it when you put it on, you’ll already know internally how to address that emotion from the days you intentionally put yourself in that situation.

3) You’ll feel freer to take more risks, because in comparison, you’ll have already been taking them.

4) You’ll find out things you like faster that you may have never considered, and you’ll also find out things you dislike faster, because you’ll have the firsthand experience of wearing them.

I just think more people should allow themselves to have fun with fashion on a daily basis, but it can seem intimidating if you’ve never done that before. But intentionally making yourself do it will really be more beneficial than not.

just because its the only way right now doesnt mean its a good way. things do not have to permanently exist as they are now and actually you're allowed to want things to be better

Please forgive me for ranting, but...I am so tired of AI. Just so tired. I don't want Microsoft Copilot, or Google Gemini, or Meta AI, or whatever other energy-sucking, water-wasting, mediocrity-spewing LLM is currently being thrust upon me. I just want to be left alone to create in peace.

i think we need to bring back calling people internet famous instead of calling them influencers like there needs to be something borderline derogatory injected back into it

idk i think what is interesting about astarion to me is the fact that you have a guy who started out an asshole (normal type) and then spent two hundred years in a very carefully and specifically crafted (by the writers of the game) Become A Terrible Person Or Die nexus. like it wasn’t just a Torment Nexus, he wasn’t just in hell, i feel like this is very important not to forget, he was in hell but it was specifically a hell designed to, over time, kill the empathy of anyone trapped in it, kill their brain’s ability to prioritize other peoples’ survival, to numb one’s conscience.

and then he gets yanked directly out of that nexus and despite that the fact that he spent, again, two hundred years in a situation that was sort of a rock tumbler for the human soul, there’s still a pebble left in there. and it’s a pebble that can be grown if placed in the right environment and provided with a support network.

so i think it becomes interesting because it really does i think force you to start thinking about the limits of free will even on as basic a level as the human personality. i think the fact that he becomes such a different character based on player choice, that his end morality is so hugely dependent on player choice, is uhhh. a big part of what the devs were going for probably.

it makes a lot of people really uncomfortable to acknowledge some bad people would be good people if literally nothing changed except they had a good support network and different circumstances. especially because it means the opposite is also true. which is even more uncomfortable.

you know that part in the beginning of fellowship of the ring where gandalf is talking about how gollum is ultimately only like that because of the ring and gandalf thinks his story is sad? astarion is kinda like if they sexualized gollum.

I wish you could make custom perfumes that would communicate things to bees. I recall reading that they mostly communicate with each other by dancing, but I would like to have some scent that communicates the same thing in as many bee, wasp, etc languages as possible, rosetta stone style. And it all is a pheromone translation of the This Is Not A Place Of Honour scripture.

Like can you stop sniffing me, bee. I have nothing of nutritional value to offer and if you climb into my ear canal, get stuck, and sting me, we both die.

sorry for getting pissed off at someone saying "this [context: complaining about cars and asking for more trains] only works if you live in the city if you're out in the country you have to drive a car" hey. hey. look at me. you and i both understand that being forced to drive a car is bad for everyone. you and i both know it fucking sucks. do you realise that youre allowed to want things to be better also

everyone on this website except me needs to shut up

we need to invent a way to explain how deep running and pervasive and subliminal racism and antiblackness is without immediately sounding like an insane conspiracy theorist

tumblr staff will let the thousands of porn bots on here run rampant yet will take down trans comics with no actual nudity

i originally reblogged this post, but since staff took it down you can't fucking see my reblog anymore. well i liked this comic, i want it on my blog, and it does not include any fucking nudity. especially compared to all the straight up porn staff allows to go free

so here it is
