Biggest pet peeve is when someone says jimmy needs to be portrayed as a pathetic wet cat and not too badass or whatever. Like do u guys know the wet cat behavior is a bit sometimes. Do you guys know he's played into before and will do so again. Do you guys know jimmy has his competent moments and really well roleplayed ones and that's he's not just stupid and bullied and little wet cat all the time. Do we even watch the same damn youtuber
He can be both wet cat and badass and competent. People just don't see the badass moments because theyre probably buried under the "jimmy is only sad bullied wet cat" belief

My villain origin story is D&D completely changing Brienne and Arya attitude towards girlhood.
There is NO WAY Arya would say "most girls are stupid" in the books. Even the Sansa/Arya "hate" is INSANE because book Arya thinks often about her sister and she misses her. The ones putting Arya against Sansa were the people that were comparing them (Sansa looks like her mother and she's more skilled in dancing, singing and knitting, while Arya looks more like her father, so less "feminine" and less cut out for those activities). Also for the record, she never thinks Sansa is dumb or stupid because she's more feminine, but instead feels bad that she can't be like her. She doesn't hate girlish activities or think they are stupid, she just doesn't feel able to do them. Also in the last seasons we see Arya becoming a "killing-robot", while in the books she has a DEVELOPING emotional sphere since SHE'S 9! NINE! at the beginning of the books.
This whole argument can go for Brienne too. We got show Brienne calling Jaime a woman as an insult, while book Brienne would NEVER say that. Like Arya, Brienne suffered from the pressure of not being able to meet those unrealistic standards that rule the lifes of all the women in the asoiaf world, mostly because of her physical appearance. She learned how to fight because she felt like becoming a knight was her only choice.
Why did D&D felt like Arya and Brienne needed to dislike their gender in order for them to be good at swordsmanship? I would REALLY like to know.

Beach Ken x Alan cuz even if I wanna kiss Alan he's literally made for Ken so ofc I also ship them
I mean I also wanna kiss Ken, but shut up. What even is their ship name? Kelan? Alen? Kean? Aen? They all sound bad, so I propose the simple phrase: Beach "Buddies". Specifically with the quotes, since that's what Mattel themselves did lol
Reference:
Idk what show/movie/whatever the pic is from, I just got it from Pinterest

day three: sharp
more writing mwahahah :3
"what're you doing?" horror asks. jet hums, glancing up before looking back down at their fingers.
"cuttin' my nails." they answer, followed by a sharp 'snip!' sound.
"why?" he asks. jet shrugs, holding out their left hand to show off their nails.
"look. gettin' sharp. then they get caught on stuff."
horror makes a soft sound of understanding, taking a seat beside jet. he watches them snip off the ends of their claws, head tilting curiously.
"'sides," jet continues after a moment. "now i don't gotta worry about scratchin' you when i grab your cute face."
they look up smugly at horror, earning a soft chuckle. he pats their head, causing their tail to sway.
"it wouldn't hurt," he snorts. "your claws are so small."
"oh yeah?" they taunt, brandishing the not-yet cut claws on the other hand. "wanna test that theory?"
horror chuckles again, grabbing jet's hand in his. he traces one of his phalanxes over the tip of their claw, where it's sharpest. their fingers looks so small compared to his.
"see? too small." he boasts. jet rolls their eyes, taking their hand back to cut those claws.
"psh, whatever. you're just lucky i like you and don't wanna scratch you." they grumble with a smile.
"whatever you say, tiny."
"wha—i'm not tiny!"
