guys we need to actually stop involving pidge in romantic klance situations
#WHAT I MEAN IS. like#i see wayyy too often pidge being the witness of random klance antics or being depicted as interested in klance's relationship a lot??#idk how to describe it i never see any of the other teammates being the punchline for klance jokes more than pidge#and im not saying that klance jokes with pidge involvement is inherently bad but i have so many examples of this being taken weirdly#like i remember this one comic i saw by this pretty popular artist (at least back in peak vld fandom) where keith and lance are having#a slow dancing moment in one of their rooms and at the very end it's revealed that pidge was watching through the vents and recording the#whole thing.#and there's this other art i see frequently on pinterest where it's implied that klance are doing the dirty and pidge is in their room#having to listen to it#and just today i received a message asking me to draw keith carrying lance bridal style as pidge watches in the background#...DOES ANYONE UNDERSTAND WHAT IM SAYING#do i sound insane#I'm just saying that pidge is not this interested in klance. at least to the degree the fandom makes them out to be#and sometimes it's just plain weird okay??? okay#haha if u read this far hello 😭#klancedaytalks

as much as I love batgirl 2024, I have to admit the lack of Barbara Gordon mentions in the whole series so far, especially with the first arc having such a big theme of motherhood/daughterhood and the things that comes with it, makes me soo sad. Barbara was the first person Cass actually considered as a mother! Barbara, although she wasn’t the best at it at first, truly did try to understand and love Cass unconditionally even when she was separated from the Bat mantle! And that panel where Cass overhears Barbara tell Dick that she doesn’t know how to really care for Cass could’ve been the perfect parallel to the whole “is a Mother just being connected by blood? No, Something more is owed/Being a daughter is more than being connected by blood” lines that Cass says in the last (current) issue because Barbara, though she did not physically bring Cass into this world, has sacrificed SO much for her, and in return Cass gave so much back.
#don’t get me wrong I love Cass and Shiva’s dynamic and how it is being explored.#however I DO think you can make an excellent story about the two and their dynamic without Shiva taking a traditional ‘caring’ mother role-#-she realistically did not want or care for at least since after Caroline-and essentially Shiva’s old life and softness-died#although I guess you could say that since Shiva is both reminded of her lost softness and Caroline through Cass-#-Cass symbolizes Shiva’s softness and Caroline reborn especially considering Shiva literally points this out.#I think Shiva and even Cass certainly ‘sacrificed’ for each other and Shiva does care for Cass-#-but it’s not really in motherhood hence Shiva is not ‘soft’ enough for that. And it is not sisterhood-#-because Shiva sees way too much of herself in Cass (i.e “im an open wound” line) so that Shiva cannot fully project Caroline onto Cass.#I would say it is something between those lines. But care and fondness/longing for something lost long ago does not equal motherhood to me.#anyways sorry!! back to babs and cass <3#mainly referring to that issue where Barbara says to Cass “People will forget about me [as batgirl] and that’s ok”-#while essentially handing Cass the title as Batgirl.#Barbara sacrificed the mantle she so loved-the mantle she was angry and devastated and overjoyed and is/was a part of her-#because Barbara believed in Cass and her spirit more than hers. more than anyone’s.#Barbara gave Cass giant leather wings to take to the sky with. SHE LOVES HER SO SO MUCH SHSHDHSKSMSN#Barbara wanted Cass to experience the same joy and freedom she got out of being Batgirl. and in response Cass states-#-“I will never be as good as you” because Barbara IS batgirl still in spirit. And as far as Cass was concerned she will never be as good-#-she will never be as self sacrificing as Barbara no matter how many bullets Cass takes for people.#AND THIS IS SUCH A BIG AREA OF CONFLICT BECAUSE BABS WANTS CASS TO BE HER OWN PERSON SO BAD#SHE WANTS TO LEARN WHAT CASS LOVES AND WHAT CASS SMILES AT SO SHE CAN MAKE CASS SMILE ALL THE TIME#SHE WANTS CASS TO BE MORE THAN BATGIRL BUT ALL CASS WANTS IS TO BE BATGIRL#WHICH IN TURN MAKES CASS WANT TO BE MORE LIKE BARBARA-OR ESSENTIALLY MORE UNLIKE HERSELF-#WHICH MAKES BABS INCREASINGLY MORE DESPERATE TO LEARN ABOUT AND LOVE AND SEPERATE HERSELF FROM CASS-#WHICH THEN MAKES CASS SO DEVASTATED BECAUSE SHE WANTS TO BE LIKE THE PERSON WHO ESSENTIALLY BIRTHED HER. AUAGHSHSJSBDN#yes. you understand.#anyways….idk being connected by mutual sacrifice and mutual love. THAT is the mother and daughter relationship that BG24 was getting at!!!!#this is where I shamelessly endorse CassCainMainly and their meta posts on Babs and Cass btw <333#cassandra cain#barbara gordon#lady shiva

FUCK IS IT THAT HARD TO UNDERSTAND?!???
#personal#i am emotional yes#over the years ive had this blog I've made a few posts abt being femme#nd whether they're serious or jokey..... inevitably someone in the tags goes “ohhh yeah bc pink”#or in the case of what inspired this post: someone going “what about the pink ones” on my praying mantis post#and im just.#sick of it. im sick of femme being equated to pink and frilly girlie behaviors.#im sick of femme being equated to skirts and heels. to makeup. to skincare. to pristine nails exactly almond shaped.#im sick of ppl acting like All femmes aspire to this shit. im sick of femms being reduced to this shit.#and i love pink! i love pink! my phone theme is quite literally just black and pink all over.#im just. so tired of any expression of Femme identity being shoehorned into being a Specific type of femininity#especially as someone who DOES get dysphoric wearing skirts. wearing dresses. embodying the femme aesthetic yall are so set on making#if u guys wanna rb this i truly dont care#i just needed to scream#and this is one small thing#but the 2nd largest category of anon hate i have gotten since making this blog is str8 up homophobia from other “queer” folks#saying i cant be femme bc of how i present. calling me slurs (and using them as such) bc they cant understand femme as anything but that#my wife and i have our users in our personal discord server set as 2 different things of anon hate ive gotten#i have had OTHER FEMMES tell me i am not femme. femmes who Know im femme who still call me butch. femmes who ive corrected and been blocked#-by bc of it. the number 1 largest demographic of queerfolk who have me blocked rn is TME femmes who embody pink also#and i dont think its a coincidence at all.

can someone explain better than i can why a somewhat consistent canon matters? to me "fuck canon we do what we want" has its limits, to an extent its freeing and you can do alot with it ... but if theres no groundwork to build on? what does it matter? when canon doesnt matter why does anything? why spent time thinking about it?
this was about arcane at first but it also applies to totk, when the canon can just be erased and replaced, changed with no consistency or rules i cant invest time thinking about anything bc .... it can all be changed anyway, without any rules in fiction it all stops being interesting to me
having rules, or groundwork to work with and around is fun and interesting, but when its made clear that nothign of that actually matters? its boring and i feel cheated, just like how i felt so cheated by totk, it makign clear that everything botw established never actually mattered, it being downright erased ... that is why my love for zelda has faltered into indifference, the only thing making me hold on to it being the projects i have already invested so much time into ..
if you read a book and important details change or go missing after you read it, or with every time you read through it with no rule or system to it at all? its tiring and annoying, why care when they dont, how can i care about a character if i know they will just go and completely change who they are while acting like that was always how it was, idk, im bad at putting my feelings into thoughts :I
#ganondoodles talks#personal#arcane#totk critical#someone better with words ;___;#i understand where the idea comes from just saying that canon doesnt matter anyway#but to me it does????#bc i cant invest my thought and time into something when it doesnt matter anyway#why spent time on that if will just get thrown away#if you take away my pan while im cooking its hard to keep going with it???? idk???#and YES its taken away i cant just .... put it into my own ... i mean yes i can but also not its not the same aaaaaaaaaaaargh#??????????? does anyone know what i mean?????????????

ill probably delete this in a minute but ive just been fuckin boggled by what ive seen across tumblr in the last few days in particular. its why i havent really been around. like holy fucking shit, its really like some of yall just dont want a chunk of the trans community to exist. like some of yall are thisclose to saying it verbatum. way too many already have. 'shut up sit down be quiet and smile for us' type shit, gee where have i heard that before. oh yeah my entire life cause i was forcefully gendered as someones daughter. shock horror i know. you might be surprised to remember and/or learn that very few trans folks know theyre trans before we're 5, or even 10, and that that gendered experience stays with all of us in both/either small or large ways. either bc we literally dont have a solid identity yet (bc we're very small children), dont have the words, we're repressing it out of fear from how others will treat us, we're actually enjoying or enjoyed being another gender in our childhood, or we just genuinely didnt fuckin know until shit lined up later in life. weird isnt it that transmascs dont pop out as 6'1 brick shithouse cis men when we're born so yall know for certain that we're confused lost girls/women oops i mean big dangerous scary men. its almost like we're transgender too. none of yall actually know what intersectionality is or means
#my t#transandrophobia#yeah ill tag it why tf not#i just dont understand why transmasculinity is scrutinized and dissected like this within the trans community#when its just not the case for other gendered trans folks amongst themselves more often than not these days#which is a good thing! a really really good thing! but why are we scapegoating transmascs#''we need more weird trans people!!'' yall cant even handle like. a pre-everything trans guy coming out for the first time#yall cant handle a pre-everything tguy wearing a tshirt without tearing him to shreds & calling him shit like afag/theyfab & ukelele boy#im tired of my identity being treated as a debate. i had enough of that in highschool as#very literally. **the only trans kid in my grade** surrounded by cis teachers & peers USING ME AND MY BODY AS A TALKING POINT#i was the only one who wasnt deeply closeted that is. and holy fuck do i still not blame anyone for being closeted in that school#why is it only okay to try to separate trans ppl from our gender when we're not fem/me#why is one celebrated and the other treated like radioactive waste **within our own community**#god i need to find an irl community fuckin badly online trans circles are hell on earth#ill be describing smth that happened to me as a clocky tguy and someone else will say TO MY FACE#that what happened to me wasnt bc i was a clocky guy but purely bc i was trans#like i. what. how. how does that make any kind of fucking sense#i wouldnt be clocky if i wasnt trying to look like my gender. like i. hello?#would u say that to any other trans person or am i just that special?

This isn't gonna make a lot of sense but imma need you to stay with me here.
Something has been working about this panel for a bit and I'm finally able to put words to it. There's something here about the way Atsushi says "he can win this" and not "we can win this". What's especially interesting to me is the fact that Fyodor just told him that he has the ability to kill a God and yet he makes no movement upon Aku's arrival to fight especially after seeing him go toe to toe with Ame-no-gozen.
Now going back to this panel
I'm hoping this is Akutagawa's attempts to knock some sense into Atsushi (hopefully not an amnesia trope but alas signs are pointing to it) so that he'll join the fight.
#something something Atsushi doesn't believe he has a right to fight for his life#but is willing to martyr himself for his friends#something something Aku being like shut the hell up weretiger we've already done this before#something something time skip and we get to “just the two of us”#does anyone understand what im saying here????#am i making any sense#bsd 119#bsd manga#bsd#bungo stray dogs#bungou stray dogs#bungo sd#bungou sd#bsd atsushi#bsd akutagawa#akutagawa ryunosuke#atsushi nakajima#cory talks bsd

im like the lorax when it comes to women's body hair. we should let it grow.
#eliot posts#the other day my roommate was talking abt how she hates shaving#but does it anyway bc she doesn't want people to be mean to her about her body hair#and i was like yeah i mean i used to#also worry about that bc my mother was always so fucking cruel to me when i didn't shave#but as an adult i find that it's extremely rare that anyone even mentions it (tho my body hair is pretty light so that could be a factor)#but even when people are shitty i find that i no longer give a shit about what what those idiots have to say about my body#but i understand that that can be a hard step to take so if you need to keep shaving for your own comfort then i won't judge#but on the inside i was just like#*ibuprofen hand meme* ''let's get called disgusting hairy d*kes together <3''#i had a great time showing off my pit hair at the pool today!#(i get read as a woman when im swimwear cuz i can't hide my body as much. so i get read as a hairy masculine woman.)#i show off my leg hair every time i wear shorts but like. my leg hair is Pathetic#i look practically prepubescent vis a vis my leg hair (my mother still calls it disgusting lmao)#but my pit hair is pretty good#i occupy a weird gendered place in society where i am more of a man in identify but society genders me as a woman#the only time i feel remotely okay being seen as a woman is when i am seen as a BAD woman. a woman who cannot/will not be A Proper Lady#it's not an entirely ACCURATE view of me but there's Something in it

I fear I’ve got a case of crackshipitis. like i need… need more abbott and mohan….. i need the fics like i #needthat…. need more people to talk about them in general actually
like who’s taking one for the team and writing that 60k hurt/comfort one shot..
im aware we’ve got crumbs. not even crumbs because I don’t even think you can even classify a really bad joke that did not Land at all as genuine flirting but. this is where we can use our imaginations and project guys….the potential is there
also sidebar to all of that but i refuse to spell abbott without the extra t. it’s like non negotiable.
#the pitt#jack abbott#samira mohan#age gap April#LMFAOOOOO#There’s a 400 word fic that was just posted and it changed my brain chemistry#it perfectly captured their dynamic#need that and more#the potential is there guys#mohan & abbott is just lonely x lonelier and I like that.#breaking news goatdon talks abt another ship even tho eye said i would never talk abt anyone other than rollins#what no collins does to a mf#<— robby would understand what i mean#if Shawn didn’t say anything I would not have moved im nglznaoaoskr I was really concerned because that joke was So bad#something about Abbott being corny and having really dry humor kills me#also age gap april is like the funniest shit ever to me omg#need the fics to roll in before the discourse starts and trust me it will#when that starts tho do not let it be here and do not come back here for said discourse I WANT NO PARTS

today's hot take for dog people: management is not the same thing as training.
#dogblr#unpopular opinion: a lot of the current flavour of dog 'training' is actually just management#does your dog know how to make a good decision? does your dog know what a good decision even is?#or is your dog under such heavy management that they never ever have to make a decision on their own?#YES set your dog and yourself up for success!!!! absolutely!!!!#but (unpopular take) errorless learning is detrimental to overall wellbeing#stress is a part of life and of your dog crumples when they experience A Stress then you have a serious problem#teach resilience as a skill#dont misunderstand this on purpose#im not saying let your dog run wild unruly unmanaged#im saying train your skills and then trust your training#when it is safe to do so let your dog make a decision#(this is not in response to anyone on here#i am casual irl acquaintances with a service dog handler and i do not respect her handling/training/management#i am very frustrated with the lack of nuance between training vs management#and the beautiful space where they overlap#people who are here from Not The Dog World#management is setting up your environment so your dog makes the decision you want#eg using a long line so your dog has no choice but to come when called#training is teaching your dog to make the decision you want them to make#ideally you would use both (management while training) but the current flavour of dog training#tends to put all responsibility on you as the person#to manage your environment so the dog never has the opportunity to make a mistake#instead of training your dog so they understand what the 'right' choice is and WANT to choose that most of the time#i am braced for the deliberate misunderstandings that are likely to come out of this post#THERE IS NUANCE PEOPLE

look i hate LLMs as much as the next person but can we please stop acting like a totally easy and feasible replacement would be installing a mod that just exists out of thin air and comes with a custom written set of quests and NPC dialogue branches.
that is not how writing works. that is not how writing dialogue for games works. i have literally written NPC dialogue for a minecraft map before and six short, unpolished, janky monologues with no branching whatsoever took me two weeks to finish. frankly i would rather have the LLM stank than put a bunch of under/unpaid writers or actors into crunch mode for a relatively minor aspect of an otherwise great server.
#like oh my god okay for all people say that LLMs are utterly morally bankrupt and uncreative and don't have any of the soul of writing#some people sure do also seem to act like writing is so easy to do and come up with and like anyone can just type words#in other words it's fucking insulting. i'm sorry but it is genuinely insulting to act like it would be ~that easy~.#writing doesn't come from nowhere! stop that!#txt#orig#salt#misadventures#unrebloggable bc im just. so fucking tired its been such a bad month and that post going around is genuinely utterly fucking gutting for me#because it really does come off as ''yeah it'd be totally easy to WRITE AN ENTIRE QUEST SYSTEM INSTEAD'' are you INSANE#like hey guess what! we do actually know what that looks like! avidmc himself has an adventure map with custom written npcs and dialogue!#AND IT HAS TAKEN HIM LIKE FIVE YEARS TO MAKE BECAUSE AS IT TURNS OUT WRITING IS NOT SOMETHING YOU CAN JUST HAVE ON DEMAND WHENEVER#sorry. sorry. i'm just so -- it's been so hard to write recently#seeing people act like it's easy and simple to come up with something that complex under a time crunch is so utterly disheartening.#like. idk man no wonder people don't interact with fanfiction as much if this is how they feel about writing as a craft.#i recognize that this is a very cynical take on the general discussion here but please also understand . it's been SO bad#this is kind of just our last straw. because fuckssake yall.#actually fuck it maintagging if everyone else can do that so can i#misadventures smp

AND WE JUST DONT TALK ABOUT THIS?!?!?!!????
#THIS IS LITERALLY LITERAAALLLYYY THE BIGGEST FORM OF CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT SUGISHITA COULD HAVE#NOT ONLY IS HE DOING WHATS BEST FOR UMEMIYA BUT HES PUTTING HIS TRUST IN SAKURA TO HELP HIM#AND OH IM SO UNWELL#HIS BODY IS PHYSICALLY REACTING TO HIM MAKING THIS DECISION IM JUST#IM SO PROUD#and then sakura acknowledging all of this too i just love them sm#they really have one of the best dynamics 😭😭😭#wind breaker#kyotaro sugishita#sakura haruka#wind breaker spoilers#wind breaker manga spoilers#ok nvm im still talking bc the second image literally gets me everytime i look at it#first off the way they drew sakura in that scene in the first place is just so beautiful thats the only word i can think for it rn 😭😭😭😭#second seeing this scene from sugishitas perspective and then learning later that the reason he has this reaction was because he thought-#-sakura looked cool and hes never thought that about anyone before just really gives us so much more for their relationship#specially how sugishita acts towards him 😭😭#add that onto what umemiya says to him (which i couldnt include in this post </3) about how hes never really shown emotion to anyone-#-till sakura showed up then it gives us an even BETTER understanding of why sugishita acts the way he does around sakura#my brain is so frazzled by the sun today and words are not coming to me easily so apologies if none of this makes any sense 😭😭😭#ill revisit it another time anyway#also the way they describe all of this really makes it sound like he has a lil crush and its so sweet 😭😭😭😭😭😭

i love percabeth so much that the idea of shipping either one of them with anyone else short circuits my brain. like percy jackson is dedicated to his one true love why would he kiss another person…..
OKAY.
BUT- CONSIDER: Percy and Annabeth are two halves of the same whole.
Like to the point where they are the same person.
They move in sync. They can perfectly predict the others thoughts and movement patterns. They have entire conversations without saying a single word. And they are so much greater because of it! Because they have each other! And if you were a part of this unit, this astounding pillar of strength that is two in one wouldn't you want more? To share that WHOLENESS?
And if your other half did want to share that joy with others, would you resent them for it? Would you, who are their other half, not understand their need for more as your own? Would you not recognize it as your very own desire? If they wanted someone wouldn't you want that too?
#i didn't reblog the person im quoting because they didn't ask for this insanity#but i had to share#my absolutely unhinged percabeth thoughts#does anyone get what im trying to say???#like they aren't the same person but they could be?#and Percy has a lot of love to give#and Annabeth understands that and loves him for it#and loves seeing him love others?#DOES THIS MAKE ANY SENSE????#pjo thoughts#pjo#percy jackson#annabeth chase#percabeth#polyamory#basically they are the center of a polycule#and the polycule definitely includes jason grace#yes i am strange and i will make it your problem

lucy's music is somehow more upsetting to me than julien's i know they're not even comparable but just because people are always on about how 'sad' julien's music is. i get such a wave of weird melancholy listening to lucy. i think because it's just pure and explicit storytelling that you can't escape, whereas julien's, while painfully honest and emotional as well, is laced with a lot of catharses. not saying either is better - just different! obviously! maybe bc it feels like im observing lucy's story so im like oh no!!!! but I'm feeling julien's more so it gets filtered through my own emotions. god does this make any sense at all? it's just interesting to me how different kinds of confessional storytelling can affect you differently.
#does anyone feel this too/even understand what im saying???#i love them both im just trtying to articulate this but badly lol#i could bring phoebe into this mix but i think her music lives in the intersection of these vibes???#lucy dacus#julien baker#boygenius
