Same energy as Connecticut Clark and Malfina (≧ヮ≦)

[fangirltothefullest]

I don't know why this became a dtiys meme or why it's trending but it's got the most Connecticut Clark/Malfina energy and I've yet to see that take.

A Century Ahead Of Our Time

After his unfortunate laboratory fire in 1895, which destroyed nearly all his work and research, Nikola Tesla was immediately back in a new laboratory experimenting with his wireless theories. As early as 1896, Tesla was already sending signals from his laboratory in New York City to West Point, located roughly 30 miles north of his lab. He continued these experiments and many others until he realized he needed more space than what the crowded city could offer.

In 1899, he developed a laboratory station in Colorado Springs, Colorado in hopes of developing a transmitter of great power, to perfect means for individualizing and isolating the energy transmitted, and also to ascertain the laws of propagation of currents through the earth and the atmosphere. Tesla ultimately believed that it is practicable to disturb the electrostatic condition of the earth and by developing large enough machinery he could grip the earth with electricity, use it as a conductor, and transmit signals and power through it.

While in Colorado, Nikola Tesla was informed numerous times by his secretary about the many other competitors in the wireless art. There was George H. Clark, who was sending messages up to 3 miles. There was also Professor Marble in Connecticut, Dr. Riccia in France, and Professor D'Azar in Rome. Guglielmo Marconi was the biggest competitor who was sending messages up to 20 miles in America at the America's Cup boat races. Although Tesla's secretary was worried that Tesla might be wasting time in Colorado while others were getting the jump on him, Tesla confidently replied:

"Do not worry about me. I am about a century ahead of the other fellows."

In January of 1900, Tesla would leave Colorado fully convinced that he accomplished all he set out to do. He would then set out to engineer and build his machines on a large scale, but ended up lacking the investments and funds to finish his work in its entirety. Some say he failed because his idea didn't work, but that's not true at all because his Colorado experiments proved that they did. He simply underestimated the cost of his system. Unfortunately, his failings to fulfill his dreams and finish his work would leave him with the public persona as being the mad scientist who had unrealistic ideas for the future. Although we are advancing with great strides in technological achievements, we are still a century behind the future Nikola Tesla hoped and dreamed for.

You and Minerva...

Clark and Malfina

I’ll allow being compared to the Roger Rabbit to Minerva’s Jessica Rabbit because Roger is very funny and wild but I am NO Connecticut Clark. (No shade to Connecticut Clark but the Clark/Malfina energy doesn’t apply here)

[ohnomysoul]

worm marriage. accidentally gave this Malfina and Connecticut Clark energy but thats a good thing

Cookie run rarepair week day 7: draw your otp @cookie-run-rarepair-week

Oh to be a farmer boy looking respectfully at his star actress girlfriend. For real this pairing has very Connecticut Clark energy and I love it. Idk if they actually have a drastic height difference but listen we take creative liberties here

Honestly these two have a special place in my heart I really enjoyed the discussion I had with someone about this pairing. Very cute 10/10

Here’s the original pic for reference

[calciumcryptid]

I'm not sure how to explain this, but TanFang gives real Connecticut Clark and Malfina energy.

Okay, so my last headcannon post got 2.5k notes, which was fun.

Now I have a completely different fandom in mind.

Behold, my headcannon for Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, specifically the movie, specifically Casey Jones, and specifically Casey Jr (sort of).

It's about him and his mom.

Casey Sr. is ... Intense.

So how on Earth did she find someone who could match that!? W Ha—

I have a theory.

I think that the turtles finally convinced her to get a god damned hobby, and she decided to give hockey a try. After this I have two options.

Option 1! She just likes watching, which is where she meets Casey Jr's dad or mom (let's face it, she has such intense wlw vibes, so if she finds a man, he has the most intense bi wife energy)

And this person is the most Normal person imaginable. Like, their name is something like Mary Johnson or James Smith. If white bread were a person, it's this one. To steal a term from the Sandman fandom "Honda Civic of a Man"

Biggest heart eyes imaginable, from this plain-ass lad/lass. And Casey Sr. is just like "YOU LIKE HOCKEY TOO!?" and is just as intense as ever about it.

We're talking Connecticut Clark and Malfina dynamics here.

Option 2! Whoever the other person is, they are still Honda Civic incarnate, but instead, Casey Sr. meets them while playing hockey.

Casey Sr. is as intense as usual, and absolutely slams this person, and is just about the most impressive person they've ever seen.

Heart eyes, mother fucker!

Basically all of this boils down to Casey meeting the most plain person imaginable and they just love her intensity so much. And she's just as intense about being in a relationship

They are made to be.

the height discourse is so weird to me. def partially bc the whole height difference obsession has never been a thing for me but also the ppl so insistent about eddie being taller that they'll then just be like "it doesn't matter how tall the actors are it matters how tall you feel like they are" or w/e give me weird energy. esp bc it tends to be ppl obsessed w babygirl steve in the creepy borderline homophobic way.

yeah it is insane how hard some people go with it 😭😭 they put eddie in one of those medieval stretchers and make him 6'2 (6'2 my stomach) so he can throw steve around like a tennis ball. i do think it definitely occasionally plays into an odd little dynamic if someone is predisposed to that particular brand of strangeness especially because steve is rarely ever the taller one... and like i guess i do understand height differences in theory like i GET IT it's fine and it's not always like weird and sometimes i think it's a bit fun (in art at least!!!) but i think a healthy dose of reality is necessary and with everything too like i know what they look like. in fact we have hours of footage on what they look like. though it's the exact same with like people saying steve has like abs when he... doesn't <3 he's still hot without them <3. also when two guys are the exact same height my dad calls them a pallbearers dream

i also think like with everything if someone's doing it in a way where you can tell its stylistic or something it's all cool but then you see one where steve doesn't even come up to eddies shoulder and u check and the artist draws h*rringrove gangbangs like woah what's going on here girlie!!!! i think some people are doing a yaoi version of connecticut clark and his wife just my opinion

How Did THAT Happen?

How did these Villains get together? How did these Isle kids get together? All that and more below the cut.

Warnings for mentions of sexual assault, mentions of sexual abuse, mentions of child abuse, mentions of death, mentions of abusive relationships, swearing

Maleficent and Chernabog (Desdemona)- they wanted to create an extremely powerful spawn who would be able to free them.

Maleficent and Hades (Mal, Ire, and Malice)- after Desdemona tried to kill Maleficent, she focused on another powerful being, a god. She blackmailed Hades by kidnapping Cora and forced him to get her pregnant.

Evil Queen and Chernabog (Evie)- his human form is very hot and she wanted a gorgeous child. He was still looking for a powerful child, saw a very powerful sorceress, and decided "Yeah, why not."

Jafar and Sadira (Jay)- he manipulated her into a relationship because he wanted an heir to exploit.

Cruella de Vl and Mr Dark (Carlos)- he took advantage of her during a mental health episode.

Frollo and Want (Claudine)- He paid for a night with her back when she was still doing that and got her pregnant. He then reused to allow her to get an abortion and, after Claudine was born and he learned she was planning to take Claudine with her, blackmailed her by saying that if she so much as spoke to Claudine, her babies (Amara and Calisto) would suffer for it.

Facilier and Ursula (Uma, Freddie, Celia, Riptide, Oceana)- they were part of Maleficent's original inner circle, because they were both super powerful and fearsome. That's how they met. They both blew UP at Maleficent when they found out she killed Harriet's twin and both left the circle. They became friends, then lovers.

Clayton and Claudette (Clay)- he paid for a night with her.

Nasira and Cassim (Jade)- she blew the fuck up at Jafar on the transport because what the hell, Jafar, you tried to rape a fifteen-year-old girl? I never would have helped you if I'd known that! He comforted her after and, since she was fresh out of allies and he knew she would probably need some, invited her to stay with the Forty Thieves. They fell in love.

Cecil B de Vil and Madam Medusa (Diego and Veronica)- he's her sugar daddy.

Drizella and Hans (Dizzy)- drunken hook-up.

Yzma and Frollo (Yzla and Zevon)- he drew her into a shitty relationship to "save the heathen" and, in the process, got her pregnant twice. She was in such a bad place that she probably would have stayed if she hadn't caught him sexually abusing baby Yzla.

Captain Hook and Marina del Ray (Harriet, Harry, CJ, Shirley, Sojourner, Ida)- they met on the transport and she was enchanted. He credits the guyliner and she smacks his shoulder every time he says that.

Gaston and Laurette (Gaston II, Gaston III, Belle, Giles, Gordon, Gil, Narcissa)- pretty self-explanatory.

Smee and Morganna (Sammy, Squeaky, Squirmy)- they met on the transport. She fell for him because he was so nice and genuine and funny. Think of Malfina and Connecticut Clark.

Ratcliffe and Helga Sinclaire (Rick)- he SA'ed her.

Jasper and Drizella (Jace)- drunken hook-up.

Horace and Anastasia (Harry)- she dated around to try to get over Anthony Sr. It didn't work.

Ringmaster and the Enchantress (Hermie)- if magic is energy, he's rubber. They met on the transport. Her multiple lobotomies left her magic extremely unstable and she lost control. He managed to soothe her. When they got to the Isle, they stayed together because he was the only one who wasn't afraid of her and didn't try to manipulate her, and thus was the only one who could soothe her. In return, she helped him get over his fear of animals. They fell in love and continue to have a mutually-beneficial relationship. They're best friends and he loves his wife.

Astronomer and Morgans le Fay (Reza)- they wanted a child with powerful magic and were both pissed when Reza had no signs of magic.

-

Horned King and Madam Mim (Riah)- they wanted a magically-powerful child. They got one, but he was born extremely premature and was cursed a few minutes after, so they got rid of him.

Oizys and Eurynomos (Dawn)- they met in the Underworld. He was the only one who could make her laugh.

Loki and Circe (Hatitosa)- they bonded over their love of magic and chaos. It was a one-night stand but they're still friends and everyone is worse for it, because it makes Hati more dangerous.

Themis and Dike (Justice)- they met because they were both advocates for not locking up Hades and several other important gods, you idiot, and bonded over being beyond furious that King Beast was this stupid. Friends to lovers.

Elea and Medusa (Mercy)- she was the only one who didn't fear or hate Medusa and they got to know each other.

Rasputin and Paulette (Mischa, Polina, Kira, and Nikita)- she was heartbroken and he used it to draw her into a shitty relationship.

Bill Sykes and Want (Arika)- he paid for a night with her and, upon finding out the baby would have Down Syndrome, demanded she abort. Amara and Calisto were already eager to have a new sibling, so she said no. She can no longer go into town but she got to keep Arika.

Hans and Nerissa (Hans II and Anna)- he manipulated her into a shitty relationship because he is drawn to power.

Monsieur D'Arque and Queen La (Tara and Tarzan)- she was a patient and his asylum and he took advantage of her.

Panic and Want (Amara and Calisto)- he found her on the streets because she didn't have a home. With Hades's permission, she was allowed to move into the caverns until she could get onto her feet. They spent a lot of time together and she was entranced, as many who've lived all of their lives in shitty situations are, because he didn't didn't want anything from her. They danced around each other for a while, until Hades got sick of it and told them to just fucking kiss already. They were the OTP of the House of Hades and now they're married and very happy.

-

Mal, Evie, Jay, and Carlos- Mal and Jay met when he tried to pickpocket her. Carlos got bought into the gang because Jay thought he was cute. Evie got bought in because Mal thought she was cute. Mal was dating Evie and Jay was dating Carlos, then Evie started dating Jay and Carlos and Mal started dating Carlos, and Mal and Jay decided to just see if they would be happy in a relationship. They were.

Evie, Agony, and Malcolm- Agony and Malcolm saved Evie from being SA'ed. She let them use her garden, Agony for dyes and Malcolm for remedy plants, and they eventually fell for each other.

Mischa Rasputin and Ivy de Vil (Pasha Rasputin)- she was there when he plead Sanctum after his father slit his throat. They spent a lot of time together afterwards. They understood each other.

Harriet Jones, Ginny Gothel, Diego de Vil, and Anthony Tremaine (Aeden, Faolan, and Sunshine)- Diego and Harriet were allies, Anthony joined Harriet's crew after Mad Maddy overthrew him, and Ginny spent a lot of time around Harriet. They became pretty close friends and later fell in love.

Narcissa and Jonas Never (Stormi)- she kicked his ass while sparring and fell in love with the fact that it was the moment he fell for her.

Harry, Uma, and Gil- they were childhood friends.

Claudine Frollo and Shan Sarangerel- Claudine spent a lot of time in the hospital so they spent a lot of time around each other.

Big Murph and Mordred Mim- Mordred tried to kill Murph because he thought Murph was trying to kurt his sister. Looking back on that fight, they both had a lot of fun. So they sparred often, became friends, and eventually decided that they'd crossed the line into a relationship.

[konigstigerr]

connecticut clark is the only one that can perform a spirit bomb of the same power as goku's, for his good character brings him friends willing to lend him their energy.

[ambrosiafaery]

Heya Vtubers! It's nice to see people moving over from twitter - as much as people joke about "amping up the cringe" to drive people off, tumblr's more welcoming than you're expecting!

My ask box is definitely open if people have questions and I've seen some help starter guides floating around, and figured why not make my own too?

This isn't about how to use tumblr though it's about a lot of the common in jokes/memes that float around. Tumblr culture works very different than Twitter culture - memes dont really come and go, they stick around. Part of this is because you can reblog posts multiple times - and yes I know good memes stick around on twitter too, but it's a very different slowness to Tumblr meme culture

This does in fact mean someone can and will flood your dashboard with repeats of the same post and yes I'm looking at you reg

We've got some silly weekly traditions like out of touch thursday, wizard wednesday, and fingers in his ass sunday and yes people Do re-reblog that shit every week. If you tell me "I like your shoelaces" I will, very stupidly, blurt out the first thing that comes to mind and it will be "Thanks I stole them from the president"

The rest shall be under a readmore because this got Very long. It's not all the memes but its a lot of my favorites that I see pretty often.

the "color theory" post

if someone says anything about color theory especially if they mentioned "children's hospital" they're likely referring to this

The skeleton wars preceded my entry onto tumblr but that was in fact a thing learn your history

Mishapocalypse was also a thing, but more relevant, is our newest holiday, Nov 4-5th

I hate to say you had to be there, but it really was a sort of manic energy you can experience in the moment. It didn't matter if you liked supernatural, destiel, sherlock, or anything, we All held hands on Nov 5th

The queen's death came mildly close, but there won't another queerbait like it. This is also the origin of the superhell meme for my fellow LGBT+

Speaking of the queen, tumblr had been waiting to celebrate her death for a Long time. People will be respectful about how her death affected shit for everyone, but they aren't going to be respectful towards her or the royal family here. We had our crab raves ready for Years before she finally kicked the bucket.

We did enjoy the sexyman polls btw, even if you twitter people were silly enough to host them offsite

"Daily Dracula" isn't just tumblr specific, but it is very popular here. It's an email newletter that sends snippets of the classic novel in real time with dates from the book.

horse plinko.

I don't have room for the entirety of the Connecticut Clark saga but its a lovely comic and Cark and Malfina are All our blorbos

You may be familiar with tumblr celebrating the Ides of March (also a very real holiday respect our traditions), so heres another history meme we've got. If people joke about the value or copper or Ea-nasir, theyre referring to this post

Around 2017, there was a time where nazi, pedo, terfs and other sorts of shit blogs were taken over by someone using Toy Story's Woody as an icon and Howdy Pardner as a blog title. Eventually the whole thing got out of hand but whoever originated Woody's Roundup was pretty funny

Popularity on tumblr is hard to gauge, but theres a few blogs out there that just Everyone knows.

We know Sixpenceee for the "Sixpenceee Heals" incident among others,

we know about thejorie's Three Weed Smoking Girlfriends,

we had bone stealing witches at one point, but not sure if they're still hanging around

thecybersmith is well known for being the Human Pet Guy among other incredibly weird takes. i think they also went to twitter but they've got a Reputation here for sure

we are Very Aware about John and Hank Green due to an incident when editing other people's posts was a thing, and people edited one of John Green's posts to be very nsfw. There's a bit of a back and forth on this one whether it was actually funny or not, but this incident did drive them off tumblr which makes John Green's recent string of tweets Fascinating

The wizard blogs are special to us, please be polite to them and pay your wizard tithes on time. I don't listen to the wizard council though, I'll cast transmute idaho if I want to.

People are sometimes really bad about reading the op of a post, and one-time-i-dreamt is well known for jumpscaring people with posts that seem like almost real encounters until you realize the blog title means this was something someone dreamed

There's definitely more but i woke up in a cold sweat at 3:30 am to write this and its now 5am so I'll leave it at that. add your favorite tumblr specific memes if you'd like.

tumblr loves to beat a dead horse (or put it in a plinko) so dont be afraid to reblog old jokes, or put a new spin on an old joke, or be like Reg who regularly reblogs the "i control the paladins" tiktok fifty times in a row when people get a bit too weird in their notes (not an exaggeration. I learned tumblr hotkeys for you my beloved mutual)

[relentless-endurance]

Feo Ul, Alphinaud and Thancred for the bingo

Feo Ul:

beloved. angel. darling. i would die for them. you know that part in shb where they offer their crown back to you so you can stay safe in the castle? an act of love!!! *bangs gong* I LOVE FEO UL SO MUCH

Alphinaud:

my son.... my boy.... i would die for him. i'm going to cuck his dad for ever hurting him...

Thancred:

i mean this with all the love in my heart: he has INCREDIBLE 'just a dude' energy. he really shines in shb as dadcred (even if I spent the first half wanting to shake him). wolcred is Connecticut clark and malfina energy, again said affectionately.
