I always wondered how James Somerton could crank out such many well written video essays in such a short amount of time…
Because he’s stealing the words of literally dozens of writers who are better than him. 😀

TWST x Reader who falls into a long sleep randomly once in a while
It was just a normal day in NRC or well..As normal as it can be
Everything is good, life is good, not that stressful
But then, slowly everyone started noticing how the Prefect and their little cat(Grimm) has been missing the entire day..
Panic soon arises in the school grounds and almost everyone in the school looking for their dear prefect(and cat)
A whole day passes with no sign of them..Then a week, a month, and almost 2 months
Everyone is starting to loose hope. What happened to them? Did they get hurt? Are they safe? Did they leave? Are they back to their original world? If so, why didn’t they say goodbye..? Were they really that unimportant to them?
It was another day of looking for prefect. They all decided to search again in the city and the nearby forest with another plan to meet up in the plaza at 8pm to report their findings
The clock strikes 8 and again, no news..But wait, one group is missing. The Adeuce is missing
Then suddenly, they all heard someone scream “Y/N! I FOUND THEM THEYRE DEAD!”
Panic, shock, horror, sadness, and anger is all they feel..They quickly rush to the area where they heard Ace scream
Once there, they find Deuce standing and crying, regret for not being with them in his eyes, Ace crying hysterically while holding onto a “dead” Y/N
——————————————
After everything was set, it was finally time for Y/N’s funeral..Some expressed their sadness and the others tried to hide it to keep up a front and look unbothered
They were just about to bury them when suddenly..The casket is making pounding noises? And someone screaming..Something like “Hello? Where am I?!! Is someone there!”
“Oh I can still hear their voice..” Deuce said sadly
“Same..” Ace replied
“Wait guys— Stop I think the prefect really is alive..!—“ Someone in the crowd said worriedly
The top/cover of the casket gets destroyed by Readers fists and they sit up still a bit sleepy
Everyone is shocked. Did the prefect just come back to life??
After a bit of celebrating and etc they asked Y/N who killed them and the prefect answers with “I was never dead. I was just asleep” they smile brightly
‘Asleep?? What human sleeps for that long?!’ The guys think
“I have this thing that I don’t really know but I randomly fall asleep once in awhile. It only lasts for a few hours or a day if I’m lucky but if it’s severe for some reason it’ll last for a few weeks or months!”
“Oh”
And everyone starts celebrating the return of the prefect again
~The End~
——————————————
“By the way guys..Where’s Grim?”

You can read one book and identify as a bookworm. You can see yourself as someone who loves books, and you can ask other people to refer to you as a bookworm. If someone who reads two books a day spends time with you and observes that you only watch movies, they may think you aren't a real lover of books, at least not in the same way they are. They may (out of courtesy to you) continue to affirm you are a bookworm by referring to you as one, but that does not change how they actually perceive you or what you actually are.
A female can dislike her breasts and identify as someone without breasts. She can have her breasts surgically removed, and have others participate in her identity as a breastless woman by observing that she does not have breasts and referring to her as such. However, she has not changed the material reality that she is someone who grows breasts, or she would not have needed to remove them in the first place.
A man can make observations about women's behavior and identify with them. He can then transition into the socially expected affectations of womanhood. He can wear clothes typically worn by women, he can adopt stereotypically feminine behaviors, and he can even alter his body such that external observers may not always identify that he is male. External observers may (out of courtesy for him or a genuine belief that he is female) refer to him as a woman. However, this does not change their genuine perception of his maleness, nor the material reality that he is male. While it is possible to identify with gender (which is a set of behaviors typically assigned to one's sex) it is physically impossible to identify out of one's actual sex. Males can become transwomen, but they can never become female, or they would be female and would not by definition have needed to transition.
This fact does not make transwomen less worthy of respect, human rights, bodily autonomy, adequate healthcare, or freedom from harassment. But it does not grant them the right to demand that others participate in a lie that they are female. It does not grant them universal access to spaces reserved for females, nor does it grant them the right to shame or police a female's personal observations and preferences. Transgender individuals deserve to be treated with kindness, courtesy, and human dignity, but they do not deserve to be treated like gods.

Just wanted to remind everyone that the fact that you are creating art is a wonderful thing, and you're wonderful for sharing it. I guarantee that someone out there is happy that they found your creation.
This applies to all forms of art - drawing, writing, photography, game development, music composition, voice acting, choreographed dances, etc. Just the fact that you are creating anything is amazing. You're putting your soul and your experiences that make you, you into that art, and it truly shines. This is why even a silly doodle can really resonate with others.
Keep creating. You're making the world a better place, and I'm so proud of you.

all hate to tiktok for taking 'having a space to more openly and actively talk about different cultures' to mean 'cultures are NOT to be shared and we must be vigilantly defensive of our cultures for fear of appropriation, a word that can be applied to any multicultural interaction'. like of course cultural appropriation is a very real problem but ive seen with the access to global multicultural conversation that tiktok provides it's made people TERRIFIED to even interact with cultures other than their own for fear of 'doing it wrong'. like at some point you have to acknowledge that in the real world of the great outdoors, the majority of people are eager to SHARE their cultures. yes there are ignorant questions and biases but also... how do you think those things get unlearnt? i dont understand how deciding that multiculturalism is an elephant in the room instead of a normal thing that should just be talked about and lived with is supposed to benefit anyone? and kids on tiktok are CONVINCED that it's a time bomb of a conversation to have and therefore must be avoided at all costs but like. people generally LOVE their home and their culture and are PROUD of it and want to share it. how have we made it so that showing genuine interest and a desire to understand something so integral to a person's identity is now feared and borderline demonised?
#thinking about this a lot lately. thinking about how fun it was comparing cultural differences in america#thinking of how when i was homesick one thing i found a great comfort in was talking about my home#and how it differed and i really loved and appreciated it when people would ask me about england#in a way that they genuinely just wanted to learn about it and not to take the piss#thinking about how the kitchen at work has chefs from all over europe. we have an irish chef and a spanish chef and an italian chef#and one of the kps is from eastern europe (i havent actually been able to find out where yet) etc and the way they banter with each other#like usually chefs are Problematic bc their humour is VERY abrasive and usually offensive#but this is one instance where it's actually to their benefit bc they're so unafraid to ADDRESS THE FACT THEY HAVE DIFFERENT CULTURES#i feel like the tiktok gen are so petrified of even acknowledging other cultures let alone discussing them#that it's actually sending the conversation backwards. like how does hoarding your culture and pretending it's not there benefit anyone#LET ALONE YOU AND THE CULTURE IN QUESTION. idk it just baffles me a bit that something that started as people on tiktok#genuinely spreading information and talking about the BAD side of this where people DO culturally appropriate or invade spaces that arent#theirs has now become 'for fear of speaking bad about it we will not speak about it at all'. and they'll crucify you if you do. like what#even at uni my best mate is indian and she's too scared to join the sikh society on her own so i regularly go to the events with her#and im typically one of the handful (or the only) white non-sikh there and i get SO welcomed each time#like there's such a genuine excitement to share the culture with someone who is effectively a blank slate#and like yeah ill ask 'dumb' questions or i'll have different experiences (tried a samosa for the first time at one of these events#and the moment that info got out i had like five STRANGERS trying to give me different samosas to try and it was genuinely such#a laugh bc yes they were TEASING me bc 'how have you never had one' but they were also really eager to share MORE as a result)#ugh idk what im saying. i just think it's a shame to watch this happen in real time on the internet#when if people would just go outside and actually TALK to people from other cultures they'd realise 9 times out of 10 the interactions#are actually really really nice for BOTH parties. and actually refusing to talk about this stuff is long-term pretty fucking detrimental#and it also goes the other way!!! like imagine if i - citizen of colonisation motherland herself - didn't interact with other cultures#and didnt ask questions or hear their opinions on whatever shared history we have from THEIR POINT OF VIEW#imagine the kind of shit id be internalising bc i only hung out with other white british people. it wouldnt matter if i was doing it#to be woke or 'respect their culture'. it would still be fucking ignorant. like half my interactions with other cultures#see me as the butt of the joke bc of this like aforementioned irish chef at work VOCALLY slates the english all the time#but it's done in an environment where we're FRIENDS and it's poking fun at each other while still addressing a very serious history. like??#idk if any of this is worded in a way that makes sense but yeah. i have thoughts#cant believe i got inspired to make an actually serious post bc of the CHEFS AT WORK. embarrassing. no one let them see this

sorry Shannon but I’m like 100% convinced it IS that easy and you’re just making it sound like it isn’t and the Black Swan has some secret trick we can't know to cover what would otherwise be a plot hole, beating us to pointing it out as if that solves it. like literally what could possibly be stopping them here (a few things, but things they could overcome). like i'm positive it's that easy and if they'd actually tried it would've absolutely worked

not a fan of people saying Odin and Loki are similar in a moral or decisive sense, particularly when it comes to Thor. that makes it sound like Loki doesn't know Thor or care about him beyond what he symbolises (regarding Asgard/the throne/family/worthiness), when that's a defining part of their relationship
#like i get WHY people go 'oh Thor is like Frigga (they care™/bring Emotions in) and Loki is like Odin (calculating™ /For The Greater Good)'#but if you make such a clearcut comparison you neglect a lot of stuff that Odin and Loki do drastically different#like there are literal contrasts that are pretty evident around Thor particularly#like Odin does expect Thor to be some ideal version of himself that obeys Odin implicitly and doesn't have his own volatile emotions?#while Loki more sees that Thor isn't who he tries to pretend to be and generally encourages Thor to realize that#the most obvious parallel would be how they in TDW try telling Thor that Jane won't work out#and Odin goes for the whole 'well they're insignificant' angle despite Thor caring about the humans and Jane particularly#Odin tries to go 'here's Sif and since you shouldn't have your own preferences (they're wrong and bad) consider my choice'#he largely disregards Thor's emotions#most people do on Asgard????#like it's literally wild how everyone saw Thor being major depressed and they basically told him to pretend to cheer up#like im sorry Thor's grief means nothing to y;all. he fell in love with someone very mortal and his brother is changed forever#Loki tries putting Thor off by first off. Thor KNOWS Jane isn't going to live long he's not never thought about it#he doesn't even make the decision for Thor he tells him to consider his choice well bc it WILL hurt him when she's gone#Loki is like treats Thor like a person and Odin is like nah I own him#I feel like in converting the brother/father relationship difference over people lose the differences in those aspect#they skip to similarities of heartlessness and Machiavellian ends meeting the means when Loki overall is#a far more moral character than Thor (at the start of Thor's arc) and Odin. and a lot of culturally Asgardian ideas#that's literally part of Loki's original characterization that he DIDN'T match up with their views#he didn't do stuff like take killing lightly like it's for fun and that's one of a long list of obvious aspects that make the setup cool#don't tell me Odin and Loki are the same#like there's some blanket understanding that Loki doesn't show or care about the people he loves#while Thor and Frigga have always been softhearted and refused to sacrifice themselves for what is deemed better for everyone#don't mistake selfishness for apathy and don't say Loki didn't cry himself through the first movie because duty to the throne comes first#that's literally Thor's bit#idk

“Did you fuck her?”
“No.” Lee takes a long, slow sip of his bourbon. “Well,” he grins as he draws the back of his hand across his full lips, catching the stray drops of liquor at the corners of his mouth. “Not like I fuck you, Honey.”

Final Ghosts thoughts cause I really need to sleep but am still thinking about it--
Choice to end with Alison and Mike taking the hotel deal at the Ghosts' suggestion, and having them return regularly like visiting family: GREAT ❤️
Execution of this plotline in the episode/series itself: not so great.
The immensely rewatchable 5 series as a whole: SO great, very happy to continue loving this show for a long long time.

That's cute ???
The brothers deciding to move closer to IK and for whatever reason IK and her father moved to an apartment so the 7 brothers all rent there own apartments around IK (Possibly they all take an entire floor).
for the jtta equivalent of om s3 (where the brothers come to the human world) they just all move into one apartment building. NO big mansion for you brothers, you get a shitty landlord like the REST of us
(actually for real i think the brothers' feud with a strict landlord that has NO patience for them has so much comedic potential. just trying to fuck with him with the subtlest magic traps possible so they don't get in trouble. lucifer actually joins in because he hates the landlord as much as the rest of them)
the brothers are constantly causing trouble and all the other residents of the apartment building hate them <3

Hey!! I saw your “I’m blocking you if you” post and I wanted to ask, if someone tags your art with something along the lines of “I don’t go here but this is amazing” or “I’m not in the fandom but this is too good not to reblog” does that feel okay? I sometimes see art and have no idea who the characters are/the ships/etc but I really, really appreciate how much time and effort is spent on art, but I obviously don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable.
I imagine there’s as many answers as there are artists, but I still wanted to ask! Thank you for taking your time, and don’t feel as if you have to respond!
Hello! Someone’s asked a similar question before, and my general principle for my personal boundaries on the blocking thing is someone explicitly stating that they don’t like the ship/character. Everything else is free game and I won’t bat an eye at it.
I’m beyond flattered when someone who is not typically part of a fandom goes out of their way to reblog my work — I am not flattered when someone wants to like my stuff publicly by hurriedly adding a caveat that they don’t actually like it for some arbitrary audience they’re trying to virtue signal/appease to.
Thank you for the kind ask, anon!

SHOCKING: world's nicest friendliest man you know is actually lonely. more at 7.
#wearing your heart on your sleeve must be hard isnt it.#i just been thinking about this a lot. & plan to make a meta of it eventually.#clark is a classic case of checking up on everyone. happy to be with everyone. thoughtful. but who checks up on him?#less people then you think unfortunately.#clarks lonliness is unique. its not just the act of having no one around. but that he was raised to safeguard himself#and kept that habit for YEARS. imagine being a natural born social butterfly but from childhood into your mid 20s you just had to#pretend to be someone else. or never let anyone know the truth. he always felt guilty in his early years hiding what he was with EXTREMELY>#CLOSE people. because he wanted to be as close as possible. but how could he dump the burden of “im an alien! dont tell the goverment” whic#later turns into “im superman! can you keep that secret with you as well?”#while its easier for him not to admit who he is. for a long time admitting hes a super powered being = burden to others in his mind#to them. to his family. it would always slightly change over the years.#i just cant iterate enough tho he is happiest helping people or working with his friends but atthe end of the day its just him.#this is why i love 1 particular animated movie...clark was shown to be overly cautious to reveal who he is.#believing its a burden.. that HE is a burden if he shows his entire self to someone. even to lois#u_u eventually clark tells lois ( in comics ) and that helps. but he still has his habits..shes an exception. not the rule.#so yeah make sure to tell your local clark you care him.#this is also why when he is like... told off by his friends over his powers ( i.e one time batman scolded him for not doing enough ) it jus#hits even harder. a reminder to him sometimes? that hes in his own bubble of this world or smth
