Yesterday a kid said to me "excuse me? Your hair looks like beautiful anime hair" which is already amazing and then she said "watch me on your camera when I go down the slide I'm going to do the Peter Griffin death pose when I come out" and she sure did.

My idea for a Mario Kart 8 themed sword

tbh. a little obsessed with how some artists drew batman’s cape in the 90s

batman’s cape as smoke, batman’s cape as shadows…. batman’s cape as wings…

batman’s cape as this almost living, almost breathing thing

(panels from batman: shadow of the bat, #74-75, & batman: legends of the dark knight, #120)m

all these posts about the gluten guys and lost generation teamup that include some variation of "oh and Impulse is also there" are making me think back to wild life. where it was also "three Gs and Impulse is also there". which makes me think back to last life and southlands and how that also had a "Impulse is also there" vibe.

then for a second i got mad at the fandom for being so dismissive before i remembered that perhaps we're not completely baseless here. because i thought about southlands and how when martyn does his last "making fun of mumbos intro" bit, he only made statues for jimmy and mumbo, despite impulse also having died. and i thought about wild life and how the only person who seemed to care about Impulse was Pearl, and even she was mostly focused on other matters. and i look at past life now and see how Ren says "Impulse is getting stuff for us" and Cleo going "he's our husband" before correcting themselves with "they're our husbands".

and i think about Double Life, about "I want Etho." And I think about 3rd Life, the only time this feeling of otherness was warranted. And i think about Limited Life. Impulse's best performance. The one team where he wasn't just "there".

i wonder if the phrase Impulse keeps repeating in Past Life, "I need teammates!", isn't just something he says out of strategic interest. i wonder if there's something in his heart that cries out to be valued, to feel like he's part of something, to have someone tell him they're proud of him. he always works so, so hard in making sure his team has all the resources they need. he puts himself in danger to prove that he's worth having around. he's willing to sacrifice his own lives to get kills. he reacts so badly to failure because every failure is another reason for people to ditch him. he thinks that, if he just works hard enough, he'll finally have the one thing he wants even more than winning.

and yet both fanon and canon treats him the same. He's a white sheep among black sheep. He's the tagalong. He is also there.

jimmy being way too eager to hear grian compliment him

[clip: january 22 2023 30 day hardcore smp stream]

[video hes reacting to: october 28 2017 build swap grians pov]

and, his reference to grian calling him good looking in a book: this seems to be referring to the escape room video where his first compliment in the book is 'tim is handsome' [december 9 2022 grians pov of the escape rooms] which jimmy reacted to during his memberathon [december 9 2022] because i really cant think of much else that he could mean there, even though it wasnt a crazy recent video by the time of this stream.

not double life where Joel taught etho how to be a red life and kill. And then in past life Joel is like "go my pupil" and etho gets the kill! And runs back to Joel with his tail wagging, and Joel praises Etho for how he did such a great job murdering

[snail-cupcakes]

nothing makes me feel alive like etho immune-to-consequences slab FINALLY facing consequences for his actions. he's in such unfamiliar territory, he's inventing whole new stages of asking for forgiveness. denial. sopping wet pathetic begging. trying every logical argument he can think of. debasing himself by doing silly voices. and the cherry on top at the end, "peoPle are tUrning on mE tOday" 😤

shout-out to the return of calling joel daddy, let's goooo:

full transcript beneath the cut but like:

Jim: All that matters is impressing daddy. Cleo: Oh… is Joel daddy? Jimmy: Yep.

Cleo: Um, hey, is Joel going to be really pleased that you got a kill?

Tim: I- he's gonna be so happy. That's all that matters.

Cleo: See? He's not going to care about the house.

Jimmy: All that matters is impressing daddy.

Cleo: Oh… is Joel daddy?

Jim: Yep. [Oh…] It's team daddy. [Okay.]

BigB: All right. Daddy's home now. What's up? [laughs] Let me stop. Let me stop.

Cleo: How many daddies is it? Is it just Joel and BigB?

Tim: I was just - I was just talking. It's just Joel and BigB. Wait! I'm the only daddy not on the- I'm the only person on the team who ain't daddy.

Cleo: You're baby! [Oh my gosh.] You're baby! Oh my god, you're baby.
