#and a few commentary things too!

[soulsxng]

"Aya, you're having too much fun with this" HECK YEAH I AM, I'M SITTING HERE GIGGLING LIKE A CRAZY PERSON WHILE ALSO FEARING FOR MY LIFE. Anyway, so the initial 8 spins:

In case the pic doesn't load for someone, here's the list! Plus some commentary, because why not.

Asedim (the djinn realm) x15. This one isn't too bad, if only because the djinn species as a whole is extremely closed off from everywhere else. It's rare that a djinn leaves Asedim for any reason, so the spread will be almost entirely isolated there.

Astra'alca (the star realm) x20. This is...potentially one of the worse spins. Astra'alca is the single largest realm in existence, and has gates connecting it to literally every other realm that has a sky/stars/space. (so pretty much all of them) It's luckily also fairly closed off for the most part though, and due to its size vs. population density, the spread will be somewhat isolated (in that the Astrecid can freely leave the realm, but others can't freely enter)...though the corruption can affect any creation, not just sentient beings. So yknow. That's why it's only somewhat.

Ivasso and Malusso (Nirbhi's home realm) x10. Twin realms. They're in the middle of a lot of fairly major realms (Hell, Atlantis, the Otherworlds, Wilacri, and Scelure, to be specific), and people come and go fairly frequently. So starting tomorrow, it could potentially spread to any of the nearby realms from here at a medium chance.

Darek. One of Kei (@feraecor)'s kiddos. JJ's former younger brother, Jas' former son. He travels a lot for work, but his main haunts tend to be Heaven, Ahnia, Gaea, Hell, and Ennirem, and Seelie/the Otherworlds. So uh. Starting tomorrow, there will be spread in at least one of those realms. Yippee.

Tee. He's on the "Other Muses" page! A lot of you have heard of Alteo; one of JJ's besties, Co-commander of Ahnia's military, and "Boss" of a rather well known mercenary group that operates out of Ennirem? Tee is his son, and the one that runs day to day things for the mercenary group. Luckily, because of this, Tee tends to stick around Ennirem most of the time; unless he's heading to Ahnia to visit his dad and some other friends.

C2. So that would be 2 out of the necessary 3 cure counts...which is good, but because this is day 0, I'm thinking of bumping this one to be part of tomorrow's roll instead. If only because the initial day is mostly going to be spent trying to figure out what the heck is going on in the first place. If that's the case, then this would turn into the replacement roll of Pirodet x15. More on that later.

Ara. As in Arahamael, one Marshy (@sansloii)'s muses. Um. So Arahamael doesn't really leave Sebiphere, and Sebiphere isn't a realm that anyone can just waltz right into...which is good. What's bad, is that some of her family does leave Sebiphere, and she's around them quite a bit, That's without mentioning the bunches of soldiers that she commands, trains, and otherwise works with every day. So yeah! Definitely not a great roll!

Pirodet x15. Okay. So quick rundown on Pirodet and the Pirodeti. First, the Pirodeti...they're a species that either encompasses the hearts/embodiments of the realms-- the Frei. (in my canon, every realm in existence stemmed from a Pirodeti, at one point. They can die though, so not all of them are inhabited by a Pirodeti anymore. I change this quite a bit depending on who I'm writing with, and what they wanna do though, so...) Or, they're Vysea, who are either primordial deities for different realms, or are full on embodiments of an aspect of existence. (Shilo, for example, is the Pirodeti of sleep, dreams, and dormancy. Enoch is the Pirodeti of divinity.) A third type of Pirodeti exists, referred to as the Rasceine, and they're tasked with...essentially helping to ensure that all of the realms remain healthy and stable, so that Creation only has to step in to fix things sparingly.

Pirodet itself is the realm that all of these beings were born from...meaning that in my canon, all realms were born from, and therefore connected to Pirodet, with the exception of Brinnela, where the four "original" species reside. Meaning that, if the corruption is spreading through Pirodet, there's the potential for Pirodet itself to be corrupted...and thus other realms themselves can be corrupted, as well. If a Pirodeti that embodies some aspect of existence is corrupted, or one of the Primordial deities, that means anyone connected to that person will most likely end up corrupted within a couple days. (ie: All of Shilo's Dreamers would be corrupted if he was. If Baphomet is corrupted, all of his followers eventually be, too)

So that's why rolling Pirodet was probably the worst roll out of all of these. A double roll (if I do decide to bump the cure to tomorrow) is bad, yeah, but honestly wouldn't make a whole bunch of difference, at that point. It's already spreading there regardless, after all.

ur post about queerbaiting and the dismissal of people in fandom to critical analysis is so incredibly true thank you. i feel like marcille's writing in the anime has been super misogynistic a lot of the time and every time i bring this up all anyone wants to say is "well maybe this isn't for you! and you shouldn't watch the show!" like. i don't think this is about taste lmao, i am analyzing the text in front of me and coming to conclusions about the craft of it.

[This is in reference to this post]

YES!!! THANK YOU!!!!!

It is so so frustrating!!!!

It's like being at a restaurant and being served a bunch of delicious appetizers, but then one of the bread appetizers is literally just a plate of crumbs; and then when you're like, "Hey, uhh, why are we being served literal crumbs?", a bunch of the other folks eating at the restaurant are like,

"WELL HOW ABOUT YOU JUST DON'T EAT HERE THEN??!? YOU MUST NOT BE THAT HUNGRY, SO JUST FIND ANOTHER RESTAURANT AND DON'T EAT WITH US!!"

And maybe they say it politely, but "Aw, sorry, maybe this restaurant just isn't for you 💖" is just trading out an aggressive dismissive tone for a patronizing dismissive tone. It's the same message.

And it's like! I was honestly happy to move on from the crumbs once my complaint was acknowledged because the meal overall is still delicious, but then all these folks got SUPER WEIRD AND DEFENSIVE ABOUT IT, so now I find myself double-checking all the other dishes -- and, actually, you know what those eggs DO look a Iittle misogynistic undercooked!!!!

did you know?

the insistence by commentary creators on treating children the same way as adults has caused ridiculous amounts of harm.

over and over i would see drama about various artists, and so many of them were just kids. some of them were younger than me, but i didnt know that. i thought they were all much older than me, because that's how they were treated.

"oh this person was a groomer" they were a child. if a child is exhibiting groomer-like tendencies, they don't just get that out of nowhere.

"oh this person pretended to have mental illness or s/h for attention" that is not a thing that normal people do. you look stupid when you say that. just because someone is doing something "for attention" doesn't mean nothing's actually wrong.

"this kid was racist" im from an extremely white, quite cishet, and very able-bodied town (or, at the very least, the town is inaccessible enough that you just don't see that many disabled people, who knows). sometimes you learn bigoted rhetoric, then have to unlearn it. sometimes you say stupid shit because other people around you say that exact stupid shit. kids in particular do not always know better. just because theyre 16 doesn't mean they're exempt from being stupid.

like.

can we stop hatemobbing fucking children. i have at least lingered online for almost 10 years. kids are one of the most likely groups to get harassed, often by adults. im glad i never developed a sizeable following before i turned 18. i wouldnt have been able to handle it either.

but im just shouting to the void, really. commentary creators dont fucking learn. they just hop onto the next bandwagon and ignore it.

do you ever wonder why so many commentary types keep getting into trouble? hopeless peaches, creepshow, daftpina, turkey tom, omnia, prison mate luke, im sure i could think of more given the time and given a little bit more research to track down some old creators i used to watch. good people don't go online and talk about kids like they should be killed. the art commentary community as a whole is rife with toxicity, seemingly always searching for small prey nobody's heard of. I remember a very long time ago there was a "drama" because an artist on deviantart didn't want their art being favourited (they misunderstood what it did) and that was a big enough deal to start making videos about. playlists upon playlists preying on kids being stupid.

if not kids, then any other vulnerable group will do just fine, too. if you remember the "tumblr art style", youll know it had a few main "characteristics"; ambiguous race, hairy legs, character depictions that weren't conventionally attractive, bandaids, s/h scars, drawing the characters with different body types, depictions of mental illnesses and disorders, the works. the "tumblr art style" was, in reality, a dogwhistle. it wasn't about the art. it was about the fact that it wasnt a white, cishet, able-bodied, neurotypical man or woman. that was a topic for a few years. "the problem with the tumblr art style", "tumblr art style cringe", i only knew of tumblr from those types of videos when i was in middle school.

commentary rarely if ever cares about justice. its just another dime in their wallet, and if they have to harass kids to get it, well, that's just fine.

Nick DiRamio just always delivers. Describing the Matt Reif/Jordan peterson podcast as "a competition between two dipshits with highly exposed socks to see who can sound the most pretentious" had me in stitches

[imblocking-you]

I'm not even halfway through the episode but like what do people think of Oshi no Ko, my classmate recommended it to me and they aren't aware of my very judgemental thoughts and this blog and they appear to really like it but I kinda think the anime is weird. Am I just chronically online or is there really a better storyline going on in here that I haven't uncovered yet?

Don’t use ‘never’ or ‘forever’ so casually, as nothing truly is Yet, with whom else but you do I find myself in certainty? If one day, you ask me, ‘What is for sure?’ Straightaway, I’d say it’s this feeling that’s here now What would we be in our next lives? Would we be lovers or friends for life? With you, either would do I want to live as two, I will embrace

Various images of things

[seancamerons]

just wondering, is it a sincere apology or merely a backtrack, a second thought, or damage control, because the person who was insensitive or unkind got called out and don't want bad press/bad reputation, or they took it too far or whatever?

for example, timbaland (sp?) issued an 'apology' according to tmz for the 'justin puttin' a muzzle' comments and being generally unnecessarily insensitive and labeled britney spears as 'crazy'.

is it a real apology or sincere, genuine or simply to save face? am i kind of valid to be like, side-eyeing all this? what is it, are you only apologizing people got mad?

what he said was unnecessary, he did apologize, and while not sure what he said as an apology, but idk if it comes too little too late tbh and doesn't sound so sincere from where i am, its up to her to forgive, but i wouldn't tbh if it was happening to me. as for tim's collaborator, protege, or progeny, he's married with a family, a wife who speaks for him, acting like a pissy baby/poor sport and all kumbaya let's heal evolve, lovely when you're doing so fabulously tbh, that sounds so insensitive and unsympathetic.

the person he dated prior to this woman who thinks she's this saintly entity didn't get a chance to heal, move on without seeing her ex everywhere essentially cultivating a career image narrative bashing his ex-girlfriend and then wondering when it comes around on him like a boomerang, hmm like dude you were really thinking you were exempt from criticism?

that's why she's speaking now, and he didn't care when he was galavanting about and being an overall scoundrel, talkin' shit, while she worked on herself alone without him, she didn't need him, she's more of a class act without him by herself, still britney spears certainly doesn't need to be patronized for speaking truth either? isn't that fucked up? i know she's a woman and tim & jt couldn't possibly understand that, and they're part of the problem why women don't speak out about things that happened to them whether this where there were some things inconsistent to his story, and turned out the way it did.

not about just using the word karma, anything you do can come back to you, bad good indifferent, and you'll get that same thing back, sometimes worse. discrediting someone on that level and treating women generally badly in 2023? big yikes.

would be funny if youtube did annual wraps of the content you watched. like hey here's your top 10 dramas you got way too invested in this year.
