the thing about jason’s ‘brotherly bond’ with tim is that everytime it only benefits jason. its only about ‘making jason’s story richer’ and never about benefiting tim, who’s characterization got completely ruined to favor the role of jason’s caretaker when ‘big bad brucie makes jason mad’. genuinely is there a scenario when they ‘act like brothers’ when its not either fanfic bs or tim telling jason, in the year of our lord 2024, that its okay that he died in a comic back in 1988? tim never benefits from this relationship, its always about jason. and im not only talking about fanfics anymore because, to my dismay, the canon is now strongly influenced by fanon and we are getting comics like ‘knight terrors’ where tim tells jason that ‘he is not a failure’. tim. timothy jackson drake. the same dude that blatantly told jason, as he was getting beaten up, that he is still better than him? that dunk on him whenever?

can i confess something else that will absolutely get me stoned in the town square since im dropping my unpopular opinions. I don’t like altean broadsword Lance. i already disliked red paladin Lance. the broadsword was like rubbing salt in the wound. why couldn’t he have his own niche. why was his character development just making him keith. i understand that it was like “he accepts that he doesn’t have to be a leader and excels as a co-leader and you can find happiness that way yada yada yada”. but you could’ve done that without making him keith. also now give him something unique, cool, that falls in line with his sniper bit. i’m not saying just give him another gun, im saying give him something quiet and lethal. like a garotte. yeah i want garotte lance.

i yap a lot more in my notes by the way if you were interested in other unpopular opinions. don’t send me hate messages or comments i won’t read it and will block viciously i also will not be debating this this is my hill to die on <3

oh hell yeah clytemnestra's breast-baring the libation bearers as a gesture at the falseness of the theatrical body! her point is 'look at the breast that fed you' but as we hear from cilissa, clytemnestra was not the one to breast-feed orestes as a baby, so she's appealing to a fundamental connection between the body of mother and son that isn't there within the world of the play. and also she's played by a man and does not have breasts.

on principle i fail to see the point in DNIs cause so often it's the same people that have a DNI interacting with the people their DNI is alluding to lol. but when it comes to singular posts having a DNI i'm like. are you a control freak? why do you care about what the stranger pressing like or reblog on a post you made is into. like how does that influence your online experience whatsoever. also why do you think said stranger is gonna respect the warning you just wrote. why do you think people online are on the same wavelength as you are when it comes to social etiquette. but most of it all, why does it matter

my respect and appreciation of the narrative and its characters who all serve important functions vs. my desire never to talk about this stupid man again

this person who left some tags on one of my old posts is on a level that i can’t even comprehend

I bought a microphone today and started on the script for the very in depth art style guide for Reverse 1999

I don't know yet when it's gonna be done because I also have 12h shifts and stuff, but I hope to make something that can also be used for just learning art in general and that can be applied to other art styles as well

fascinating recently to hear people including other biology professionals complain about how they feel like learning biology/taking biology intro classes had way too much boring memorization about random facts and that in fact all or most biology learning is about memorizing facts. because like... idk i did take lecture-based/textbook-based biology in high school but even then i never felt like the core of the thing was burdensome memorization?

there were definitely some things i committed to memory for a test and then dropped (e.g. i know i used to know a lot more about kidney anatomy or the order/structure of alternation of generations in bryophytes than i currently know, lots of terminology i've completely forgotten) but all of them had a sort of underlying set of... principles/ways things can be that fit into a picture of how biology can work and therefore eventually how it does work. like i don't remember kidney anatomy but i remember the general principle of using branching and folding to fit more epithelial surface area into an organ and that comes up a lot and lets you reason about when and why it's useful to have a lot of epithelial surface and what epithelial surfaces do. people get mad about it because it's not, like, physics (can learn a relatively limited set of math formulae that let you derive most things) or chemistry or economics (like physics but the formulae are kind of fake and people are deluding themselves a little about how true and generally applicable they are). but biology has a structure and a set of things that can happen and you can learn it deeply and well enough that you understand how to evaluate the probabilities of different things and how they fit together and what new information implies about other information

i'm just really perplexed by it because like. honestly i'm in this field because i had a really fun time learning biology and a really fun time discussing and teaching and coming up with ideas about biology and then i just kept doing it. and if people are really out here experiencing every Biology Fact as a completely discrete thing they have to memorize independently in an unfun boring slog.... well first of all i guess i'm vaguely surprised that you can have a biology research job while not connecting things together that way though that was probably shortsighted of me. but second of all i don't really understand why you would have ever bothered to do it because that sounds exhausting and really hard

We live in a hellscape where the 03-05 seasons r some of the most interesting narrative and racing seasons and the people are bending the relationship at the core of that narrative as a means to an end of their ship free us

Earnestly wondering how people who espouse shame as a viable tactic for bringing about personal change manage to do it successfully. Is there some difference in our definitions of shame, or do they just have a higher tolerance for it? Have they found meaningful success, or are they just bluffing? Is there a type of person who can really just hurt their way into being better? Is there a type of person for whom that's sustainable?

People who excessively hate on lan xichen and paint him as some kind of villain in a quest to simplify a complex, open-ended narrative are both boring and incorrect

[balkanlila]

can you believe lila understood the sciences better than most people i encounter every day...(wonder what this says about society) it's not about blindly sticking to a men-made truth, it's about accepting the chaos as the sole indisputable truth and THEN attempting to conquer it with various and adaptable, ever-changing mechanisms. our bodies are built on this knowledge. to achieve homeostasis you have to make change your starting point for everything.

I will never be able to make myself feel bad for syril mostly because the fact he never noticed he was being manipulated is completely due to the fact that he assumed the empire (the isb mind you) was a useful force for order. you think the isb is looking for outside agitators?? mr already-witnessed-a-civilian-massacre-and-dating-an-isb-supervisor?? he never had to believe the empire was good, just that they wouldn't treat him as disposable. it's all ego
