Getting real tired of people I know in real life trying to spin the AI art theft shit as not only *not a bad thing*, but somehow A GOOD THING

[icewindandboringhorror]

examining a seemingly normal image only to slowly realize the clear signs of AI generated art.... i know what you are... you cannot hide your true nature from me... go back where you came from... out of my sight with haste, wretched and vile husk

Ranking the HOTD episodes by how gay they are (season 2)

season 1 rankings

8. Episode 6: Red Dragon vs Gold. I don't think very much gay happened in this episode. Other than Alys just being cool and Daemon being tortured is gay rights. Also I feel like Sunfyre is gay. 2/10 gay

7. Episode 1. Son for a Son. Points because we find out Alicent is delusional and is sending Rhaenrya letters and telling everyone about it. Jace and Cregan could be gay but we don't see much of it. -1 billion points for Alicent & Criston hooking up. 3/10 gay

6. Episode 2. Rhaenyra the Cruel. Rhaenrya and Daemon pretty much divorce. Mysaria and Rhaenrya start sharing the most intense looks in the world. But another million points taken off for Alicent and Criston STILL hooking up. 4/10 gay

5. Episode 5. Regent. Rhaenrya and Alicent are mirroring each other the whole episode as they are ignored by their councils -and we all know there is nothing gayer. Alicent is mean to Criston. Rhaena and Jeyne share a very gay look in my opinion. 7/10 gay

4. Episode 7. The Red Sowing. Alicent escapes the castle and goes camping. This is her coming out to me. Rhaenrya starts to go a little cult leader, and we can mark Mysaria down as scared and horny. 8/10 gay

3. Ep 3. The Burning Mill. Ok finally we start cooking. Alicent is saved from the delusional allegations when we find out Rhaenrya has been saving her letter in the same place she keeps her kids toys and, presumably the page from season1. Rhaenrya risks life and limb because she trusts Alicent not to rat on her and visits her in the sept. its very emotional. Alicent does a little moan when she sees Rhaenrya for the first time in awhile.

+ whatever is going on with the bracken/blackwood warring teenagers + Rhaenrya and Mysaria share some intense looks again

10/10 gay

2. Episode 8. The Queen Who Never Was. Alicent uses the power of gay speedwalking to make it to dragonstone, putting her trust in Rhaenrya to not kidnap her. Alicent continues their really fun tradition of talking about Viserys' love for each other when they are really talking about their love. Alicent asks Rhae to run away with her, and also offers her son as a sacrifice. Its pretty intense. Then she says "I cast myself on the mercy of the friend who once loved me" like WHAT!!!

+ points for whatever was going on with Criston and Gwayne. + Rhaenrya and Mysaria looking out at seasmoke who is no longer alone, mirroring before when Mysaria said "he looks lonely" earlier . When she was really talking about Rhaenrya.

11/10 gay

1.Episode 6. Smallfolk. Sorry Rhaenicent you're number one in my heart but you cannot beat an actual kiss. YET. Rhaesaria kiss is incredible and very gay. +1 million points, -2 taken away because Alicent had a hard episode and it's not fair to her that she hasn't kissed a girl yet.

+ points for Alicent getting a scar in the same place as she cut Rhaenrya as the smallfolk chant Rhaenyras name.

1000000/10 gay

Fav line has to be they were supposed to take me away but they forgot to come and get me. So sad but also so cool in relation to her cancellation/return. 10/10

2. TTPD- not so hahahaha anymore IS THIS ACTUALLY A FUCKING MATTY HEALY ALBUM??? There was a typewriter at the 1975 show she performed anti-hero at? Unless its somehow about harry? Who else is tattooed on her roster??? Or is this about herself? Kinda feel like modern idiots/who’s going to decode is directed at us lol😂 9/10?

4.Down bad- ….aaaand we’re back to MATTY AGAIN? He does not deserve this spotlight but why are all the song so goood😭😭😭 is this why artists love to date problematic men? It unlocks some extraordinary potential? Crazy crazy girl😭 also stay down (bad) 🤌🏾 shes done it again 10/10 also for personal reasons i will be believing this is about joe in that Tom/Joe/met gala overlap period when she was photographed going to the gym a lot and that this is about all that yearning please let it be about that plesplesplesplesplesples also down bad waking up in blood staring at the sky…like i lost a twin is giving bigger than the whole sky🥺

7. Fresh out the slammer- god she gets it. Like sure he was great and he is still my biological father and everything but as a decidedly melancholy person myself who has constantly had atleast one close friend in a deep depression I can see how all that heavy lifting can just get heavy at some point especially when youre a partner and their sole lighthouse in wtv storms be out there buffeting their mental health. Its not for everyone and thats so fair and so valid but so sad as well. 10/10 for the honesty.

Like yes I still hate matty with all my heart and soul but yes I agree fans should not be allowed so much of an opinion on another persons life and yes I should be afraid (I am). She said aight love letter era over I AM WRITING YOU ALL HATE MAIL AND I’M HAND DELIVERING IT. Shes sooo done pretending to be the relatable girl next door when she’s anything but and is now reminding us of it and yes yes yessss girl OWN ITTTTTTTT. I’ve been saying for agesssss that there is a darkness under all that sunshine from where she clawed her way to the top and this is sooo vindicating. 10000000000000/10 favourite song ever. Mad woman wishes she was who’s afraid of little old me. I am unwell. I am in love. This is the Taylor Swift i stan. The marketing genius the calculating business woman the puppet master with narcotics in her songs thats why we sing along🫡 she so can handle a dangerous man

13. I can do it with a broken heart- first of all track 13. Love it. Second of all the upbeat barbieness of it all. Third of all I FINALLY PLACED IT. Shes in her unrelatable era. She is not your girl next door. You will never understand her life. She is as much a phenomenon as a person and we literally only see as much as she allows us to and honestly if i have to get put in my place theres noooo better way to have it done. Im having such a great time actually. 10 BILLION TRILLION OUT OF 10 you tellll em girl you FUCKING TELL EM.

14. Smallest man who ever lived- not going to speculate on who it is bc they clearly had a serious problem and its not a joke but damn :/ thats so sad :/ hope they get help? Didnt expect this to be what the song was about at all?

15. The alchemy- she said TRAVIS IS MY BOY WITH HER WHOLE CHEST😌 10/10

16. Clara bow- did she just name drop herself ? I was so right about unrelatable era. Also the Subtle nod to olivia/sabrina noted and appreciated. Lucky one/castles crumbling (mature version) fr fr. Solid legacy song.

25. I look in peoples windows- once again I thank you for the kindness and respect shown to joe. Never doubted you but thank you nevertheless. 10/10 short as nice to have a friend but it didnt need to be longer.

26. The prophecy- its so sad and humbling to see even a woman at where she is having to beg for love bc that literally is the nature of love. Something humiliating, to have to beg for 🤷‍♀️ cards playing out like fools in a fable cursed like eve got bitten. No one writes like her damn. 10/10

27. Cassandra- very madeline miller on this one. Love love loveee modern takes on tragic greek women. 100/10

31. The manuscript- postmortem of every ex ever🤌🏾 love it.

Rating all of Bail Organa's outfits

First outfit from Episode 2. I like the coat he is wearing and I like the darker blue of the shirt, but I'm not completely vibing with the collar. I get the aesthetic and the image they're going for (he's a Senator so they're trying to make him look a bit old fashioned) but it's just a bit too much. Looks comfy though. 6/10 for the coat and the comfiness. (They make him wear this in tcw as well and he doesn't look nearly as comfy in the series. In my honest opinion Bail is supposed to look comfy)

Second outfit is the first outfit from Episode 3. This is my favorite. The absolute best. He looks sophisticated and extremely comfy at the same time. I like the color and I like the cut and silhouette of the whole outfit together, and the coat is giving rich but classy. Did I say that he looks very comfy already. He looks like he would give the best hugs. Actually this kinda reminds me of the coats my mom used to wear during winters when I was a kid and I can feel the texture of the cool fabric as I would hug her when she came home from work vividly. For evoking that memory this outfit gets extra points. 1000000/10.

Second outfit from Episode 3. The only time he isn't the paradigm of comfiness but that doesn't matter. He looks hot and he knows it. Love the shoulder pads. 10/10.

Third? outfit from Episode 3. It's what he's wearing under the leather jacket + a cape. Light grey is not exactly his color but I like the boots and how big he looks next to Obi-Wan and Yoda. Cape always gives some extra points. 7/10.

Fourth outfit from Episode 3. My second favorite. The comfiness is back. The color looks great. That cape is absolutely majestic. The frame of the cape makes his shoulders look really wide and I like that. Slaying even when the Liberty dies. 10000/10.

Fifth outfit from Episode 3. It's sleek and classy. I like the length and the shade suits him a lot better. 9/10.

Next is the outfit from the Kenobi show. I like the shade, and if he has to wear a shorter shirt, I like this lenght. Really like the color of the cape, makes the outfit pop even when the color is more muted. Casually comfy but could and should be more. 8/10.

Last, the outfit from Rogue One. Couldn't get a screenshot where you can see the whole thing but it's mostly earth tones and the cape. Again, extra points from the cape. I love this outfit but the reason is because I love how he clearly tries so hard to look unassuming. Like he's not royalty and over 190 centimetres tall. This is his rebel outfit. I want to know what those things at the front are. 6.5/10 for the fashion though. The extra .5 points is because of the expression above that he had during the whole meeting. Me too Bail, me too.

Regression

Contain +warning: Mentions a SFW ONLY (DO NOT SEXUALIZE THIS POST) caregiver age regression dynamic.

A/N: I was extremely tired while writing this, I am also not a great writer. These are my headcannons on how each of the brothers would react to MCs' age regression. These are all my headcannons. It's not proofread, + probably bad writing, plus my first post, lol

*MC struggles with age regression, but when they do show signs of sleeping into it, the boys are there to make MC as comfortable as possible*

Lucifer

-He is use to being in charge so taking care of MC isn't super difficult

-He enjoys the title of caregiver as opposed to other names

-Lucifer adores playing with MCs hair it relaxes him just being in the moment with MC

-Claims he doesn't but actually loves MCs favorite cartoon (he has a reputation to think of lmao)

-Will constantly reassure MC that they are amazing and that he loves them

Mammon

-Insist he must be referred to as "King Mammon the great", but will melt at any title MC calls him

-Refers to MC as his favorite tiny human when they are regressed

-Mammon gets a little caught up and buys a bunch of regression gear the moment he find out (100% got in trouble with lucifer for it)

-Mammon loves cartoons on his own but watching them with MC makes him 10 times happier

-He feels safe to let himself relax completely while caring for MC

-Loves to play cars, or even dolls with MC as long as they're happy

Leviathan

-Keep like a million blankets of different textures and softness, as well as suffies to ensure MC is comfortable

-Plays "little kid" games with MC, typically easy going animal games and gets excited when MC points out their favorite animal

-Constantly panics that he doesn't have everything to properly care for MC

-Blushes to death when MC says they love him, and refers to him as the best caregiver ever

-Likes to snuggle with MC and watch cartoons together or slice of life anime

-Will keep helpful regression items in a special spot/storage so MC has everything they need

Asmodeus

-Asmoeus definitely knew what regression was before MC told him about it, and loved the idea of being a caregiver

-Asmo definitely bought a few pacifiers in different styles in case MC was an age regressor

-Loves playing dress up with MC especially when they are regressed

-1000000% loves playing with dolls whether human or animal ones he loves the drama him and MC come up with

-Asmo loves to watch Disney movies with MC (Asmo has a soft spot for princess movies obviously lol)

-Asmo will also make sure all of MCs stuffies get a kiss goodnight and wishes them sweet dreams

-Asmo will also keep a cool nightlight just incase MC gets scared of the dark

-Asmo has no preferred nickname he enjoys both femme and masculine ones as long as MC feels comfortable



Satan

-Satan didn't understand Regression at first and was very confused by it but since it was MC he was willing to try it out

-1 million percent reads bedtime stories to MC with lots of big gestures and voices to make the story come to life

-He reads into they both fall asleep leaving the book on his chest while snuggling MC

-Satan buys children books of all kinds, mainly ones with pictures or kids first chapter books, which he keeps on a special self

-Definitely refers to MC as his little kitten viewing them as cute and soft as a kitten

Beelzebub

-Beelzebub is use to caring for Belphegor so helping MC regression is not a problem for him

-Beel loves to make MC's comfort meals while making himself a portion too

-Will always try and make hot chocolate even if its just for himself

-Would offer to drink out of a sippy cup/bottle if it would make MC more comfortable regress in front of him

-He 100000% says here comes the airplane

-Beel loves to snuggle with MC especially if they regress close to bed time

-Beel will softly hum to himself when he thinks MC has fallen asleep to enjoy the moment

-Beel likes the title bubba

- Would honestly play any game MC wants out color with them although he will always bring it back to food

Belphegor

-Struggles a bit to get use to caring for MC, but tries his best for MC

-Keeps a blanket for MC that matches his own

-Loves when MC regresses near bedtime, means double the snuggles and the easier it is to fall asleep together

-Keeps small snacks like gummies near his bed for MC to snack on

[mooshs-crack-headcanons]

Little bit late but something I wanted to point out regarding Shadow's movie design:

They made DELIBERATE DESIGN CHOICE to have his rings have indents, like they can be snapped off.

Guys, we're 1000000% getting an 06-esk "going all out" scene. There's no way we aren't. Sure, it can also be for the ending where Sonic ends up with one of them like in SA2 but... come on, a cool raw action scene with Shadow? They're gonna do that too so why not both?

[kdinjenzen]

So I just got this wall of text, which sprouted from someone asking me my opinion on mayo.

First off, I want to say that this is a good example of a parasocial relationship in a really bad way.

This person really liked me in "CONTENT MADE BY COMPANY" - and followed me because of it, but then obviously didn't like me the person or the things I make.

I don't understand why anyone, for any reason, would continue to follow a blog for content they don't enjoy.

It's like someone who HATES nsfw content, but follows a bunch of porn artists and then THEY get mad when the PORN ARTISTS post PORN.

Also this is Tumblr. No one cares about numbers. Everyone HATES when posts blow up because it RUINS their notifications. Literally being "KNOWN" here makes no real difference and absolutely doesn't matter at all.

It's why I like Tumblr and really dislike other social media websites.

In another important point... most of the AMA questions I get are always framed as: "Hey Kdin, what do you think of (INSERT THING HERE)" ... which means I'm being asked what I think about something.

I don't need to put a qualifier on things like "I hate mayo" or "I don't enjoy that show" - if my not liking something or absolutely loving something ruins your day somehow or gets you pissed off... it says less about me and more about you.

Also: "(I am not convinced you don't send yourself asks just to gain traction) (again, how often do you reblogged yourself)."

Part 1 - LOL, no. If I have something stupid to share, I just fucking make a post and then leave it alone and giggle to myself about it. Why would I ever bother to send myself asks - especially when I don't care about "gaining traction".

Part 2 - You ever felt proud about something you did? Like art? Or a funny joke? Or a video? Or a POTG in something? Or - fuck - literally anything? And wanna show it off again? ... yeah that's the WHOLE POINT OF THE WEBSITE YOU'RE ON! It's SOCIAL MEDIA, meaning posting... sharing... re-sharing... and re-blogging others and YOUR OWN stuff so people who may want to see it, can see it, and ALSO because "Hey, I did a thing, that I think it cool, and I like it. The End. I will share it again, 1000000 times if I wanna."

Being drunk doesn't excuse rudeness.

I am a human person.

I constantly have pushed AGAINST people putting me on a pedestal, calling me a role model, or saying "Kdin you're famous" - I don't wanna be any of those things.

Why?

Well, for two reasons...

For bullshit like this.

Because once that happens, you're no longer treated as a PERSON, just a THING to be CONSUMED by others.

I'm not a commodity, I'm a person.

And it's quite obvious, you don't see anyone who you "enjoy content from" as a person, just a thing.

I hope you get therapy, and are able to deal with your anger.

PS: I fucking hate mayo.

11 and 12 for Cady

12, 15, 23 and 54 for Ronnie

17 and 29 fot Janis

25 for Karen

27 for Regina

hello nonnie holy cow thank you

cady

11 if someone was impersonating them, what would friends/family ask or do to tell the difference?

answered here!

12 what’s something that makes them laugh every single time? be specific!

this vine, really horrible dad jokes, the sound sheet metal makes when you shake it, goofy animal videos

veronica

12 what’s something that makes them laugh every single time? be specific!

martha quoting the princess bride especially in wildly inappropriate circumstances, dark jokes (what do you get if you cross the atlantic with the titanic? about halfway), also really horrible dad jokes, sometimes nothing at all, watching people fall down especially little kids

15 what’s the most obvious difference between their behavior at home, at work, at school, with friends, and when they’re alone?

at home she’s very reclusive. she loves her family but they do not understand her and not just in the teenager way so they have a sort of “we live in the same environment but i have my zone and you have yours” vibe. in school she’s more social. more of her real personality comes out when she’s around strangers and martha, she hides and adapts bits and pieces around the heathers and jd

23 what do they feel guilty for that the other person(s) doesn’t/don’t even remember?

she still feels guilty for everything she did to duke but everyone else also did shit to duke so it all just blends together

she feels guilty for dissing the heathers before she joined them

ignoring a key point of the plot she feels guilty for. y’know. murder (they’re dead what are they gonna remember)

54 what’s their instinct in a fight/flight/freeze/fawn situation?

fawn 1000000%. freeze first but once she processes it she’s absolutely a fawn.

janis

17 what do they notice first in the mirror versus what most people notice looking at them?

janis: damn, i look cool as fuck

others: damn, she looks cool as fuck

in all seriousness i don’t think janis spends all that much time looking at herself if she’s not doing something. so i think like when she’s doing her makeup she’s thinking about her makeup and stuff so i don’t think any features in particular would jump out at her. and she also doesn’t strike me as having too many insecurities about her face and body that she agonizes over

29 how do they respond when someone doesn’t believe them?

BIG MAD. she will hunt down any proof she can find and provide receipts and will hold grudges against people who don’t believe her. big sad also but mostly mad

karen

25 what subject/topic do they know a lot about that’s completely useless to the direct plot? tw sa mention

she knows so many facts that are completely incorrect

she also knows the entire history word for word of the founding and expansion of taco bell as a national chain

she knows exactly when specific emojis were added or changed and how they were changed

and she knows a concerning amount about everything related to sexual assault and sexual health and porn and things of that nature

regina

27 what’s the worst gift they ever received? how did they respond?

honestly it’s probably something like her parents got her one of those kiddy phones in middle school so they could monitor her and introduce her to that world slowly instead of a smartphone right away

or just something like that that’s similar but off brand/not specifically what she wanted

and i wholeheartedly believe she threw that shit in the fire or the pool or down the stairs or whatever and had a full tantrum in the meantime

[holocene-sims]

oc deep dive

thank you @stargazer-sims for tagging me!! naturally, because i am predictable, i'll answer these questions for grant 🙈

not sure who has done this tag because it went around mostly when i was on hiatus, but i'll tag: @windermeresimblr @nectar-cellar @papermint-airplane @queeniecook @sparkiekong + anyone who wants to do it 💌

what uncommon/common fear do they have?

common: he's a major germaphobeeeeeee

hello, mr. showers-multiple-times-a-day! 🧼

btw i always headcanon grant as wearing masks frequently in public and always in very crowded places like airplanes. you just don't see that in-game because all the mask cc i have installed conflicts with his glasses and/or eyelashes 😔

uncommon: idk if he's afraid of anything uncommon. the main ones for him are germs + being yelled at or physically pushed around, which are common. i guess you could say noses kind of freak him out; the whole cartilage/bone/close-to-the-brain combo is a very unpleasant thought for him lolz

do they have any pet peeves?

you know how most people hate it when a two-person party at a cafe/restaurant sit on the same side of the bench? grant actually hates it when the other person sits opposite of him; he finds it a little bit awkward and lonely. he'd much rather have the friend or partner sit next to him, provided they're cool with it and a side-by-side seating arrangement is possible! ❤️

what are 3 items you can find in their bedroom?

his cat, probably

hand sanitizer (citrus scent)

pikachu plush acquired during the korea arc with henry

what do they notice first in a person?

physically: hair 💇 simply because hair is the first thing his eyes can see when looking at someone...unless they're the same height as him, at which point he can finally look someone in the eyes lmao

personality-wise: if they're nice to servers or other customer service workers and tip well

on a scale of 1 to 10, how high is their pain tolerance?

at this point, it's a 10. his body is a little (a lot) banged up from old injuries and being chronically ill. when he was super young, his pain tolerance was not that great, like stubbing a toe was a serious hour-ruining problem, but he's had to get used to feeling much worse, so his "i feel great, let's go run a marathon!!" days now are probably an average person's 6 on the pain scale but a 2 or so for him. it's not that things hurt *less*, it's more that the conditions that would get him to notice his pain, pay more attention to it, or rate the pain level at a 6 or well above that are far more extreme.

do they go into fight or flight mode when under pressure?

it depends what kind of pressure. if it's some kind of social pressure, aka being in an argument with someone or having upset someone, it triggers major fight or flight response, and usually, he's a flight kind of person. it's changed, though, over the course of the story. i think he's more willing to fight or at least just feel the fight/flight response while responding with a cool head.

if it's a non-social pressure like a situation at work, even if people are involved in the situation he needs to deal with, grant responds very differently. he doesn't get the fight or flight response here, he's always pretty level-headed and logical about non-social situations.

do they come from a big family/are they a family person?

his family is too big, but he adores them all (sans his parents and one of his sisters). grant is 1000000% a family person!

what animal represents them best?

personally, i think he could be a panda. large, cuddly, and endearing

what is a smell that they dislike?

ultimate irony: he hates the smell of cigarettes ☠️

and he finds it funny. he's unfortunately been addicted to smoking forever, but he's so irritated by the smell and also scared of bothering anyone with it that he takes extreme measures to avoid not absorbing cigarette scent lmao

have they broken any bones?

oh dear. yes, he has. lol. the whole "i accidentally knocked out/broke some of my teeth playing hockey thing" was real 😭😭

the teeth were probably the most obvious/annoying bones to break, but he did also break the pinky finger on his left hand, aka his dominant hand, at church when he was like six. he was fucking around in the church basement with his cousins and friends after some church event, and when they were leaving to go back upstairs, he shut the giant wooden door too quickly, which jammed his finger hard enough to break it 💀

how would a stranger likely describe them?

physically: giant, should have played basketball

personality-wise: charming

are they a night owl or a morning bird?

i think he's somewhere in between! he's happy to stay up late and get up early. although, even if he does stay up late, he still will always get up early. he's used to that from work and also from chronic pain bothering him in his sleep.

what is a flavor they hate and a flavor they love?

love: coconut, chocolate, citrus, coffee

hate: strawberry, vanilla, tea

do they have any hobbies?

cooking, baking, playing video games, dungeons & dragons/TTRPGs, painting, stargazing/reading about astronomy, watching airplanes irl or in videos, watching youtube, watching cat videos on instagram reels, hiking when he feels up to it, working out, traveling, reading (he's trying to fully get back into it), etc.

boom, surprise birthday party! how do they react to surprises?

honestly, grant is one of those people who does muchhhh better with surprise birthday parties than planned parties. if you give him zero time to think about receiving love, gifts, and affection, he can't do the whole "woe is me, i don't deserve it, you're too nice" shtick

do they like to wear jewelry?

at this point, he doesn't really own any. he used to have piercings (the only ones remaining are the 🍒💍, and he did have a claddagh ring, which was a gift from his great uncle, but the piercings were lost to career dress codes, and the ring disappeared with all his other stuff that his mother threw out years ago.

so, he's not anti-jewelry, like he'd totally wear rings at least, and he regrets that his one very nice ring was lost :( i think he'd also wear a necklace if someone gave him one, but grant himself would not naturally consider himself a necklace guy, so he wouldn't go out of his way to purchase one of his own volition.

(author's note: he deserves a nice necklace)

he does wear a leather watch all the time, though, but i'm not sure if that should be categorized as jewelry or just an accessory!

do they have neat or messy handwriting?

he has very neat handwriting!

what are two emotions they feel the most?

probablyyyyyy contentment (i know that may seem ironic given the story, but i think he's generally chill *now*, and my image of him is always a little bit colored by the yet unpublished end of everything the stars promised, which will get posted some day when the plot gets to that point) and shame

do they have a favorite fabric?

he may not own anything in this fabric but minky dot!! grant has visited fabric & craft stores many times with grandma aoifeeeeee, and when he and his cousins were younger, they loved to run around the stores feeling up all the fabric. he's always fond of minky dot because (1) it's soft, and (2) the dots are fun to poke at.

what kind of accent do they have?

i feel like i've answered this so many times, but grant, in my mind, has a unique accent!! he grew up in small town upper peninsula michigan, so he's had plenty of time to absorb the yooper/midwestern accent, but he was also raised by a family full of immigrants and spent most of his childhood hanging out around his grandparents specifically and traveling overseas to visit family, so at the same time, his accent turned irish-y early on. he's not the only one that combo accent happened to, but he probably has the strongest case out it outside of his aunt and uncle.

basically, with 100% certainty, i deem that grant has never and will never be able to pronounce the th sound with the h in it or vowels without them being nasally.

it's hard to put what i think he sounds like on paper, but it's some mix of these people: (1) (2) (3)

(humour me while I talk about guitars for a minute) eddie not letting people touch his guitar is so odd to me because as a person who appreciates guitars and spends all my money on them, every time i get something new and cool I make everyone try it, like I am forcing this guitar in your lap, you will strum it, you will tell me how great it is, and you will be excited (maybe this is just a flaw of my character though idk).

what I wouldn’t do is throw it over my shoulder though, that’s pretty crazy and couldn’t be me, he was brave for that (arguably more brave for that than fighting all those bats😏😌). also I know that man was making frankenstein guitars, like buying cheap pawn shop shit and modding the hell out of them just for fun (maybe for profit too?? omg maybe that’s how he saved up to get his big boy guitar!!) and his inspo at one point or another was 1000000% the eddie van halen infamous frankenstrat

anyways I really want a new guitar and I got guitar brain rot thank you for coming to my ted talk

[dashielldeveron]

1000000% agree with you about your takes on the mha ending, it sits so wrong with me that toga, touya and tenko don’t get to be redeemed but don’t get to even survive??? Like they victims of abuse stemming bc of hero society and they don’t even get to live in the ‘new’ ‘’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’changed’’’’’’’’’’’’’’ world LMAO that’s fucked. ESPECIALLY WHEN NO 1 ABUSER ENDEAVOUR GETS TO NOT ONLY LIVE BUT HAVE THE REDEMPTION ARC??? and to a lesser extent overhaul too??? Like ik he isn’t redeemed in anyway but he gets to live?? The message is soooo depressing when the two most prominent abuse figures get to live but the victims aren’t even worthy of a second chance. This is why we have fanworks ig.

( also this is completely unrelated but who do you think had the best pro hero redesign.for me I think kaminari looks very. nice. and bkgs bomb tassel hair tie things r cute. Also idk why hori felt the need to do a aizawa shinsou hair transplant 😭😭😭😭 like

shinsou: where is mr aizawa???

mic: who do u think gave you the hair….)

listen,.,..,i can excuse murder (touya), but i draw the line at child abuse (endeavor) lol. i hadn't even been thinking about overhaul!!! yeah, why does he get to live when, out of the the villains besides AFO, he's the one with the worst intentions?? why give us a found family if they're gonna be torn apart forever?? sigh. how would you have approached the endeavour and overhaul stuff??

at this point, i kind of hope we all stay in collective denial and keep our fandom standard of, like, baku/todo/deku as the top three heroes, complete with OFA. it's not that i'm mad deku lost OFA; that could make sense narratively, but it's that he gets iron man-ed up that pisses me off. it's like a retraction that being quirkless is fine, since deku needs that power to hang out with his friends. sigh. sigh. sigh.

well! i'm finally glad yaoyorozu got fabric to cover her boobs. she deserves it. i liked the flashes of jirou, eri, and sero that we got. and this is me projecting, but a lot of them having long hair down while they fight seems impractical. i know hair growth/cutting is a primary way to show time has passed, but i especially think mina could have trouble with her longer hair--looks cool but might get in the way of her acid.

and i will say that i much prefer aizawa's and shinsou's old hairstyles. and lololol kirishima looks like he's drawn in a completely different manga with how detailed and buff he looks; good for him. i need to yank bakugou's explosion tassel things i need to bite them grrr grr bite bite bite definitely not the design i was expecting but definitely interesting!!!! and that closeup panel we got of shouto.... 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀 what a h*nds*me man. despite the weird storytelling choices lately, the art remains very, very beautiful. hori is very good at drawing interesting designs and beautiful people, and there must be an odd pressure to draw really well when your whole cast is hot. so, at least the art hasn't fallen off.

i hope we can all keep making fun art even though the series has been strange at the end!!! thanks for your thoughts; i need to hear everyone's take on this bizarre turn of events

[synthsays]

GUYS!!

Did I ever tell you about how I love the 1998 Miniseries "Stephen King's : The Shining" ?

It's so good!

I know a lot of people say that the book version of the shining isn't that great and that the 1980 Stanley Kubrick movie is the best adaptation of the story, but personally I disagree. Sure, the 1980 movie is great and is a genuinely good scary movie, but the backstories of the characters are practically erased to make room for the scary factors. Really large parts of the plot are rewritten as well. I think the book was great, and the miniseries is so much closer to the book plot wise, character-castings wise AND setting wise. The ending of the book and miniseries is 1000% better than the 1980's one was. ⚠ Spoilers Below ⚠ check the miniseries out on Internet Archive, the book on Libby or at the library and the 1980 movie on Vudu or else where!

In the book and miniseries Jack Torrance still has some chance at redemption, even from the beginning. Sure, the first sentence of the book is him calling his employer a prick, but that's because he was being pretty rude and picky. One of my favorite things about the book/miniseries is the croquet mallet. I don't know why but it's just so much more silly and cool than the boring axe. Croquet Mallet my beloved <3. Jack's internal conflict with his dad and alcohol problems, etc. are also really intresting to watch. The scrapbook explaining the hotel's history was very important to the whole plot, because it explained the whole reason Jack went over his breaking point, but the 1980 movie just deleted that whole post point, which is very annoying. Danny's "imaginary friend" Tony is never explained in the 1980 movie, but turns out to be Danny's older self somehow talking to him in the miniseries. I'm not sure if it says Tony was older Danny or not in the book. I'm biased but Jack Torrance is %1000000 more silly in the miniseries. I know it's controversial and that he's kind of a terrible person but he's just a silly guy when he's not trying to kill his family. The party guests... now that's a whole nother story. Wolfman is certainly an intresting character, but is clearly a scare factor. For context, Wolfman is a party guest in a wolf mask and tail that scares Danny a lot. Instead of a hedge maze, which is no where to be found in the book or miniseries, there a hedge animals, which come to life and attack Jack, Danny, and Mr. Halloran. Jack is writing a play, much like in the 1980 movie, called "The Little School" I'm not sure how much the plot of it is described in the book. Also, Jack was a teacher at a school before he was the caretaker at The Over look. I say *was* because he was fired and fighting a student in the parking lot (the student *did* slash his tires but that not and excuse ;-;) he was an English teacher and the sponsor for the speech and debate club. Wendy, now Wendy is just a silly lil gal. She's trying her best to just get by and she is just not doing to great. Obv she doesn't trust Jack with Danny too often bc Jack broke Danny's fucking arm (not *really* on purpose but he was still drunk blah blah blah) and Wendy still has her knife in the book & miniseries. She hits Jack over the head with a croquet ball instead of a bat, but croquet balls are pretty heavy so it did as much damage. Going back to Jack's problem with his dad I mentioned earlier. We find out through the book that Jack's dad wasn't the best of guys, if you catch my drift, but I think Jack still tried to impress him before he died and all. Because the hotel is rather off grid, located in the mountains, the Torrance family's only mode of communication is a CRT Radio. The hotel makes Jack hallucinate that his dad's voice is coming from the radio and that he's saying Jack is weak etc. Etc. Jack is having a pretty much mental breakdown and responds with " you're supposed to be dead! Stay Dead!" Before smashing the CRT radio with the previously mentioned croquet mallet. This cuts off the Torrance family's communication but it is also a very intriguing scene to watch. OMFG <- I just realized something.

So, the whole scene in room 217 (in the 1980 movie its a different number but I'm too lazy to look it up) Danny is strangled by the ghost/poltergeist of the lady who died in that room. So obv Danny has bruises on his neck. Jack is yelling at him from down stairs because Danny stole the room key and he wasn't supposed to do that. Cue Wendy running and and both her and Jack run up to get Danny. Once Wendy gets to Danny and sees his bruises, she immediately accused Jack of doing it. Later in the living room/common room/ whatever room Danny is still in major shock from being strangled obv and Wendy is kind of rocking him back and forth. Suddenly Danny snaps out of his trance and starts yelling "It was her it was her!" (Refering to the lady in room 217) but since he was in Wendy's lap and jumps out and runs over to Jack. Jack notices a lipstick mark on Danny's cheek (again, from the lady in room 217) and immediately turns to Wendy and asks if she did it. THIS IS WHERE MY AU COMES IN. I PRESENT...

The Role Swap AU: The Shining Edition

Wendy is the one to go insane because of her anxiety instead of Jack w/ his alcoholism.

rank peddie kisses?

Okay i waited on this because this is SO IMPORTANT. I rewtached them all and here is their ranking (i would love to give all of them 10/10 but i didn't let myself)

This is my child. I took it way too serious. Also I included Almost Kisses and Piper Kisses. Sue me.

First Kiss - 1000000/10 - Okay this one is perfection for so many reasons. Starting with the aesthetic of the double leather jackets. Perfection. Then you get to the deep down. Eddie is pouring his heart out and he is so desperate and she is ALSO desperate for a totally different reason (to just tell him how she feels but she can't cuz the hex) and both of them are just feeling so much urgency and he's about to give up on her but he doesn't want to so he's being more vulnerable for her than anyone else in his whole life and she does the only thing she knows and kisses him HER FIRST EVER KISS and the kiss itself is so sweet and so satisfying to finally get. So good they go in for another one (that doesn't happen) but yeah it's the start of an era.

The Almost Kiss- 4/10 - VICTOR THE COCKBLOCK RODENMARR HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO US. Anyway the "guess you could call me fearless." was smooth but the rest was Eddie being a total cringy boi trying to "play cool". Stillit's sweet so it gets some points. ALSO points for asking her if he can when he knows she's struggling to communicate. Also, their disappointed faces are so cute and saddd. Thoughtful boy in love. Girl in love too.

The Piper Kiss - 1/10 - THIS ONLY GETS A POINT BECAUSE OF THE SET UP. The way he looks at her when he's talking to jerome is just HEART EYES. He's so smitten. but like him kissing piper is soooo awkward and theres no chem (how can jade and burkley have sooo much chem and nikita and him have zero?) and OFMG who THE FUCK on the writing team wrote "smackeroo?" i hate that word SO MUCH.

The ALMOST Piper Kiss - 2/10 - Same thing no chem but OMG THE LEAD UP AND THE COMEDY. Like the hand holding, the "your a big part of who i am" the "Be you." I AM MELTING. Then the comedy ofc with Patricia like OMFG DEAD and Eddie instantly knows which she is gets one of the top eddie cute moments ever.

Pretty much Alone *Eyebrow waggle* (tunnels)- 5/10 - DEAD. TOO FUNNY. NOT EVEN A KISS BUT HOLY SHIT THIS IS THE BEST SCENE IN THE WHOLE SHOW AND THE ALMOST KISS IN IT NEEDS A RANKING. Was i bias giving it a 5? yes. Do i care? no.

Eddies reward (Library Kiss)- 7/10 - Not my favorite but we get some good camera angles and the lighting in the library is chef's kiss. Simple kiss. Not much to say.

House of Rainbows- 8/10 - Parralels the first kiss so well but because the first kiss was better (imho) I couldn't rank this as high. Still8 out of 10 is good because this is the SIMPtricia kiss. She's smitten after she's done being mad. Also me and my friends used to quote the ever hysterical "good question! I was kidnapped!" forever so bias. ALSO one of the best parts of the parralels is that in the first kiss she kisses him because she can't talk and in this one he kisses her because she wont shut up. cuties. :)

Friends - 6/10 - I WANNA ENJOY THIS KISS SO MUCH MORE BUT THE AFTEMATH OF IT IS SO BAD. Like sheinstantly gets mad again and it's all ruined but boy without that this ones a keeper. Short and simple but so pretty.

Gatehouse - 9/10 - I wanted to give this 100000 because of eddie (he legit runs the whole thing) but i can't give it higher than 9 with the fact that Patricia isn't Patricia. Still THE SPEECH. Ugh if you know you know.

Fireworks- 10/10 - ALWAYS WAS AND ALWAYS WILL BE ......a ten. It's perfect.I love it. Best of the season.Eddie loves her so much and she's so insecure but he would never not let her know how much he loves her. and they're just THEM like the games the insults the everything! True power couple.

TOR - 9/10 - This one omg has my heart. She's worried about him, and rightfully so. They might never see eachother again but they won't let that come to their mouth in words. They speak there maybe goodbhye through their kiss and wow are they so in love it's craazy. Super couple Peddie we love you. Would get a 10 if it was a lil longer or had better angles tbh.

[hakuryuu]

uno reverses all the [people] emoji @ you for noonday :333

yessss

😊 (SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES — what are your oc's career/general life desires? what do they want to get the most out of life?): noonday is living her dream life i think!! her original plan of owning a tea shop with an upstairs apartment/magic and herbal workshop was already really ideal for her. there were some bits in the middle when they were ""hiding from the church"" and ""exiled from torredaga"" that were less than ideal, and she didn't necessarily enjoy her time in helios, but her core maxim has always been 'fun comes first' and she's chased that more or less unwaveringly

😖 (CONFOUNDED FACE — is your oc an introvert, an extrovert, or an ambivert? do they let people in easily, or are they more reserved?): she's an ambivert and lets people in VERY easily sgfjfjjdhf. memorable moments include summoning the ghost of a woman who was just murdered and instantly making friends with her and congratulating her on her engagement before remembering she was dead. she's got a very open and friendly personality and when she's interested in you she will Become Your Friend. thena tried to kill her several times when they first met and noonday was like woah your god powers are cool and kept going back for more. they're married now

🤔 (THINKING FACE — what are some of your oc's quirks/mannerisms?): she talks Very Much with her hands, and she's always tinkering with something. ever since she got her god markings she refuses to wear anything that will hide them (see-through or gauzy materials are acceptable but on thin ice). also she hates shoes and wears them as little as possible

🧐 (FACE WITH MONOCLE — is your oc more logical or emotional?): EMOTIONAL 1000000% noonday has never made a logical decision in her LIFE when an emotional one will do

🤓 (SMILING FACE WITH GLASSES — is your oc chatty or quiet? are they at ease in social situations, or are they more shy?): CHATTY AND AT EASE, to the point of semi-blasphemous casual conversations with multiple gods, trying to make friends with the weird glowing figure that is trying to kill her, and becoming best friends with caoimhe, the worlds most tsundere bitch (affectionate)

🤩 (FACE WITH STARRY EYES — is your oc a planner, or are they more spontaneous in their actions?): she's very very spontaneous (fun comes first!) and has gotten the squad into (and out of) trouble multiple times because of it. she'll go along with any plan that one of the others comes up with, and make suggestions, but there is essentially no way to stop her from improvising in moments of impulse

😥 (SAD BUT RELIEVED FACE — is your oc prone to getting stressed out, or is it easy for them to keep their cool?): she takes everything with such ease that she keeps her cool through most stressful situations, especially since most of the time she's just interested to see what comes next, but when there's danger to her friends she can get really serious and focused. she tends to get mad before she gets stressed out though

😓 (DOWNCAST FACE WITH SWEAT — is your oc open-minded or stubborn? are they inquisitive or do they prefer to keep to their bubble of knowledge?): VERY open minded and inquisitive lol. she's learned a lot of stuff during her time in torredaga just because she's constantly getting interested in stuff and exploring it. that's how she started in on ghost magic in the first place

😞 (DISAPPOINTED FACE — does your oc attract others, or do they tend to be left alone?): definitely more of an attractive personality, although she's weird enough that there's definitely people that go out of their way to avoid her

🤒 (FACE WITH THERMOMETER — does your oc get sick easily?): you know what they say about fools and colds! she came from a much colder climate than torredaga so she's always walking around barefoot in a skirt and a halter top. despite doing this living on a combination of random interesting drugs + homemade teas + takeaway she can count the number of times she's gotten sick on one hand

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 (FAMILY WITH MOTHER, FATHER, SON AND DAUGHTER — how many people are in your oc's immediate family? how many people are in your oc's extended family? do they have aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, etc? who in their family are they closest with? are they close with their birth family, or do they have a found family?): immediate family are her mother, her father, and her cousin (familiarity-breeds-contempt) (fun reminder that noonday's full name is fortune-favors-the-bold and that noonday is a nickname) but she has an enooooooormous extended family across both torredaga and the pelisian isles. they're all part of a big art syndicate/mafia-type situation, and noonday was set to inherit the torredaga branch of the art forgery market before she walked out and got written out of the will. in her family she's probably closest to her dad (she doesn't get along with her mom) and her [semi-distanrt] cousin roz (a-rose-by-any-other-name). she's definitely WAY closer to her found family, which consists of caoimhe, al, erdan, ermax, thena, The Kidz, and several ghosts
