#None of them have the braincell

[imminent-danger-came]

tbh you are so real for talking about the misogyny targeted to mei & other women in the lmk fandom. in general its like people only value mei as: a: the wingman to some basic mlm ship or b: macaque 2.0. its honestly crazy how so many male side characters overshadow her in the fanbase despite not even having a FRACTION of her screen time. idk chat i feel like the reason people dont care about mei but care about some random male side/background character is less because they're inherently more likeable but because some of you view women as inherently less likable. and everyone is always like "mei is so girlboss pussy cunt slay shes the only reason theyre still alive because she keeps them safe from their silly boy shennanigans shes their ultimate wingman shes so badass shes their lesbian best friend i totally paid attention to her when i watched this show LOL" and even ignoring the obvious misogyny here (ie. how people reduce her to being the male characters babysitter) its like... okay... i know mei is cool & badass already... could you name literally ANY other character trait she has. like people just value her as being "the braincell" who can get red son and mk together or something stupid and its like are we having fun still is this still fun. literally every day i go into the mei tag its like "look at mei shes red sons wifey and shes vaguely in the background of this drawing of red son and mk staring into each others eyes #trafficlighttrio am i right oh look shes macaques niece now this post is about ao lie why is it in the mei tag"

and thats literally JUST talking about mei and it doesnt even begin to cover the other female characters. chang'e constantly gets reduced to being red sons aunt/mom/big sister despite them like. not having any actual interactions in the show. lady bone demon constantly gets overshadowed by her minion who has like 2 seconds of screen time, or she gets made into a cartoonishly abusive madwoman who people call lady bitch demon. just in general people act like shes a horrible person for like. being a villain. liks yeah the trying to destroy everything was bad but also she was an antagonist and thats what antagonists do LOL. spider queen gets completely ignored. princess iron fan gets made into a cartoonishly abusive mother so that way red son can have a poor angsty backstory and some male character (usually nezha, macaque, swk) can take care of him.

(also theres just a great deal of ethnocentrism in the lmk fanbase? like im white so take what İ say here with a grain of salt but so many people will misconstrue aspects of chinese culture for their own personal hcs. people will say male characters are transfem or nonbinary while completely ignoring the time period/culture their from where thats the norm. like yippee youve implied that an east asian man is feminine/emasculine because he has long hair. how do you not see the negative connotations with this. people also turn pif (& lbd to an extent) into a dragon lady which obviously has negative racial connotations lol.)

anyway this is where my unhinged rambling ends have a good day have a good night İ had more to say here but İ reached the text limit. İ dont see a lot of people talk about the misogyny thats prevalent in the lmk fanbase so İm glad youre pointing it out lol.

Yeah, I totally hear you. The lmk fandom has plenty of issues with misogyny and, like you said, ethnocentrism. It's definitely something worth having a discussion about, along with these issues in fandom as a whole.

“Every time I’m found by you, I get sucker punched in the face with an F in my tests. Just what do you want this time, Constantine”

Au in which Phantom and Constantine are bastard friends, and they hate each other’s luck to get into trouble.

Without even a greeting, the bloke of a man just point backwards with his thumb and said, “Pest. Yours. Not my problem.” just to disappear in a flash of light right after.

Danny groaned as he saw the building somehow both on fire and freezing cold on the walls, “Mark my words you asshole,” the ghost grumbled, “I will make you pay for this,”

.

A full thermos later and a little bit of sightseeing done, Danny too, disappeared into a flash of light, though this time a brightly green one.

With a sigh, he went back to his house. At least the Watchtower was one space.

Bastard.

It was a disorienting-nauseous feeling in his gut that made Constantine realize that payback was today. He groaned outwardly, making his cigarette fall to the finely tiled (and glowing, he might add,) floor, which in turn made him groan again.

Accepting his fate, he decided to look up. “Ya got something to call me on, mate?”

Phantom just sat there in his throne, looking bored to death and with the same expression he’s sure he had when he realized that he had to take care of the pests of the Watchtower.

“Welcome to disaster, ya old bastard. I’m here to make you pay,” Phantom said with a roll of his eyes. Looking as bored as he felt.

“Yeah, yeah. Just get it done mate. What happened now, Your Highness?”

“Ghost Duty,”

“-No.”

“You have no option, really. You’re a witness on this shit.”

Constantine groaned, passing a hand on his face as he did so. “Can I smoke at the very least?” he pleaded.

“Not a good idea. Trust me, you don’t want to make this longer by making an ‘offence’ to the judges.”

The magician sighed. Ghost jury duty was the worst. Not only it was long as fuck, it was also filled to the brim with weird rules and shit. “I fucking hate you, you know...”

Phantom just patted him on the back.

"Damned asshole,"

The Boys!

Getting ready for Halloween

[hoffmanstits-enjoyer]

A legit horde of zombies to be treated in Portland, a fucking royal family playing them for fools not to mention the person taking Nick has a spit-toxin that will drive kehrseite and wesen mad, but Monroe's first and foremost priority is getting to Nick wherever the fuck he is, in whatever capacity he can, with the help of whomever's on board to help— I'm sorry, am I supposed not to consider this beyond loyal friendship and way into the realms of devotion considering the person Monroe has been as a wieder? You've gotta be shitting me.

It's one thing for Monroe to include himself into Laufer VS. Verrat business indirectly, even his heartfelt and spiteful speech about not caring about the status quo doesn't say as much as this because holy fuck, he wants to insert himself in the center of the situation because Nick's in danger. Full ready to 'make some calls' and LEAVE ON SOME PLANE TO GO AND FIND NICK, PLANS MADE AS THEY MOVE. GOD.

I'm so unwell, send help.

Look at our protagonists, dawg. We're gunna die.

[thatludicrousdisplay]

okay I’ve spent a lot of time reading jack x Ianto fic this past week (around 18hours if my screen time is to be believed) and one thing I’ve noticed is that the dominant fandom characterisation of ianto is “soft baby boi 🥺🥺” and don’t get me wrong I love that. but I feel like we’re forgetting that 1 (one) ianto jones also:

-harboured his cyberman gf in torchwood 3’s basement

-essentially got his job by being an annoying shit and catching a dinosaur

-shot Owen for opening the rift

-literally threw Jack into a portal to a hell planet

-knocked out a dragon

-single-handedly blew up a housing estate with a homemade petrol bomb

-hijacked a forklift to break his bf out of a secret prison facility

in short: ianto is a chaos gremlin and I feel like we need to acknowledge this further

i wish i could make a coherent post detailing the littler reasons on why i love team snakemouth as a whole and how they relate to each other and balance each other out, but the last few times ive tried have all been incoherent word salads

so instead i'll just say: i like them they're silly :-] (<- deranged)

Grace: ... y'know when I said you'd changed? Gabriel: Mmh? Grace: I was wrong. Gabriel: Are you sorry? Grace: Nah.

Me brainstorming what to say when I propose to my gf this weekend: “hey baby what if I called u my fiancée haha wouldn’t that be cute”

[pizzaapplecheese]

It is hard to guess who have the braincells in the pilgrimage, especially considering the fact there was an ACTUAL SCENE of Bajie shoving paper up his nose to force himself to cry, which looked so genuine that Tripitaka was moved to tears and Wukong was straight up laughing, all while they were standing in front of a corpse. Also, Wujing got some incense to help mourn the corpse during all of this chaos.

I would say Bai Longma, but we barely see him do anything, and from the little we have he straight up saw the yellow robe demon eating a human and thought "WHAT A LOSER IDIOT, HA!" When he was supposed to be looking for Tripitaka.
