#apologies for the complaints

actually the amount i yearn is directly proportional to how much i sleep and considering i only got to sleep for an hour and a half last night i would say that we are in the TRENCHES today my loves

update that I am doing okay at home! pain meds are not super effective, and I'm struggling to do much, but I'm on the mend.

I do have a few minor adjustments to request regarding my convalescence:

need to rebalance these boredom and energy level mechanics, they've been an issue for a while. being too tired to do things should equate to being able to sleep!

frankly stingy there's no waiver on back and hip pain while I'm forced to lie on my side with my head and shoulders raised at a 30 degree angle. what kind of establishment are we running here

if touch stitches bad, texture simply must stop being so intriguing

you make fleet's legs like baby lamb's and tell her to walk lots but never fall over??? no extra legs even??? where is the sense

design flaw: nerves sending plenty of pain signals on the sides of the head (where sleeping happens, healthy) and not on the back (crime scene/dig site, do not lie down on, bone theft here)

petting cats should carry no risk of infection ever at all. high priority fix, petting cats should only be rewarded please

it’s kinda stupid to call rui “sassy” or say he was acting “mean” for simply doing what any person would do realistically after tsukasa humiliated nene in the main story. i swear this fandom has gone over this a thousand times and yet for some reason it’s still so hard for people to accept that tsukasa was being a self centered asshole. that’s not even exaggerating anything that’s just the truth.

btw (if im wrong correct me) but rui has never gotten angry at someone unreasonably he’s actually quite mature and doesn’t just?? explode over things so i dont know why him refusing to work with tsukasa even after nene forgave him is seen as a “mean” thing… let’s not forget he still believed tsukasa hadnt changed at all and only wanted to be in shows for selfish purposes. it’s not bad to admit that tsukasa is egotistical and has acted much more mean in unacceptable ways than rui + has had to own up to this and work hard to grow as a person over time

Hi GT,

Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but I absolutely love the recs you've given (you've introduced me to tomione, and I love it!) and I was wondering if it's possible to give you some recs in return? There are some books and fics that definitely have dramione / got vibes, and I was wondering if I could share them with you!

So glad you've enjoyed them! Feel free to rec me anything you want. I've read most of the classic recs in terms of fic and adjacent content (Cruel Prince et al), but I'll try anything that's well-written. My tastes run towards weird and/or audaciously creative stuff, and I can forgive a lot of weaknesses in plot on the grounds of (1) ambition or (2) character work. My turnoffs are instalove, protagonists who can't fail, and most Y/A (I'm not a hater, I swear, I just need characters who can say "fuck" when their leg gets chopped off.)

I'm also a fan of weird and fucked-up dynamics.(Wuthering Heights was my favorite book for a while, and as a teenager I wrote an AU in which the book ends on a long sex scene where Heathcliff fucks Cathy's ghost and then immediately gets murdered by Catherine 2.) Obviously, I am very normal.

Ngl, I don't like how the new movie is changing the backstory. I wanted miner Megatron, I wanted him writing his manifesto, becoming a gladiator, starting a revolution. No atlmodes takes out the whole funtionist society, are at least Megatron's big chunk in it. Also, Bee being the same age as them is a very weird take. I've always seen Bee as being 20 and Megs and OP being in their 50s.

Changing the backstory?? My dude there IS no one backstory in transformers. Megatron hasn’t always been a miner/gladiator/revolutionary leader against functionism. This is a brand new continuity, not IDW or Aligned. For gods sake have we forgotten the LITERAL EVIL BRAINWORMS he had in G1???

I super love new and weird takes on old stuff, in case you’ve forgotten the premise of this blog. I have some qualms maybe but overall I’m excited for this. Also you seem really quick to dismiss the lore and worldbuilding potential of not everyone having tcogs. Limiting tcog use so that “lowly worker bots” don’t have any, and apparently many don’t even have NAMES, sounds like it could absolutely be a dystopic regime, just with a different manner of oppression than functionism.

Basically: tf fans stop expecting new continuities to be exactly like old canons challenge (failed)

kenjaku is genuinely so creepy and i think that’s one of the reason why i love him SOOO much !! ive always had a liking towards characters who are insanely messed up and grotesque and kenny is like the perfect example of that. hes gross like — actually. i think hes a good example of how genuinely fucked up jjk is, and as much as people hate him i think he’s such an amazing character. gege’s dark writing when it comes to him and sukuna is so IWHSHSBSHEWJW !! sukuna being a cannibal and his entire thing revolving around cooking is so cool to me. like his entire character circles around things like that. he can use fire which.. cooking! when you cook you can eat! sukuna eats ppl.. his malevolent shrine is just a bunch of slashes which cut you to death and when you cook you’re usually cutting and chopping things.. with kenjaku and the whole pregnancy thing as well.. the womb.. it’s like disturbing and honestly it makes ppl a little sick but i find it so interesting because that kind of writing i LOVELOVEEE SMM!! kenjaku was willing to do the most nasty things just to get his plan to work. he’s such a scum of the earth guy sigh.. that’s why im so SOO happy i found this blog because you also like kenjaku and i can safely talk about my love for him without getting jumped 💔 im really sorry this is so long!! im just really happy it’s a safe spot to talk about these things! i love horror :3

i love kenny 🐑

THIS THIS THIS THIS . GOD. THIS.

i literally love you so much lambnon you worded this perfectly….. i loveeeee horror elements in fiction and i agree that jjk does it so so SO well!!!! sukuna & kenjaku are such great examples because not only are they morally reprehensible in really disgusting ways, they also … feel literally no shame over it. they never try to justify it . morality doesn’t even exist to them, and i think villains like that are sooo fun <33

sukuna’s cannibalism and general thematic ties to food & eating is SO tasty especially since it all goes back to him eating his twin in the womb … it’s like eating is a curse that follows him around but he’s made it into a point of pride. you know? he’s so unabashedly awful and i loveeee that about him…..

AND KENJAKU. i agree on all points!!!! everything!!!!!! he’s soooooo creepy and so eerie and so gross. i find it really funny and fitting that even sukuna thinks of kenjaku as a freak LMAO. which is . extra interesting when you remember that the womb is a special place even to sukuna… and kenny sort of… perverts it. he makes it into his own science lab. it’s so twisted and sickening and tasty because kenjaku doesn’t just impregnate that woman from the kamo clan, he impregnates himself!!!! and i can only imagine that he did it partially just out of worldly curiosity which is….. sooo . him? he’s so insane? 😭

literally nothing is off limits to kenjaku, and that makes him such a fun villain….

^ i think he says it best himself :3c

the womb motif in general is also so . Good… the motherism of it all….. i’m forever bitter that we never got to see his domain in action because the fact that it’s basically a manifestation of a womb realm is soooooo fucking sick oh my god. body horror is so scary to me but also so insanely tasty and the fact that kenjaku’s whole character revolves around it just!!! scratches my brain. no pun intended.

anyway …. this ask made me a little insane. i’m so happy to have you here lambnon!!!! :’3 this blog will always be a safe space for lovers of the grotesque / of kenjaku in general <333 our beloved scum!!!

It's happening again folks.

The anti-idol factory fans have come out of the woodwork on ig and twitter to protest the "Dream" finale being paywalled and they've resorted to insulting the show itself. Those of us who don't want to pay have to wait until August 7th to watch it for free on Idol Factory's youtube.

I reached out to a friend to ask if they've done this for every series because I've only ever watched "The Sign" and "Dream" as they've aired 'live' and this is what they responded with:

This person has the patience of a saint, so to see them respond like this really took me by surprise- stirring the pot is more my style than theirs😏. I said as much and they went on to say this:

I'm not trying to involve this person in any drama by including their messages, but why they said what they said is very relevant. Most of the complaints I see come from interfans and not Thai fans. And as an interfan myself, I can admit that there's a certain expectation of privileges that we are used to.

My friend -who is Thai to be clear- has been extremely generous with their patience when dealing with interfandom bullshit. Overly so, if you ask me. They have been straight up ignored when discussing their own culture. Or even worse, spoken over. When I tell you they deserve this fucking vent, I mean it.

Something to keep in mind whenever we complain about how production companies from another country operate. Saint has always been very upfront about the amount of money he sinks into series production. Idol isn't doing this out of some twisted sense of corporate greed *cough cough* GMM *cough cough* Yes, there will always be a profit margin because that's how business works, but the money Idol makes does cycle back into the series they produce FOR THEIR FANS. As far as I've seen, they are the only Thai production company that has uploaded every single one of their series UNCUT to youtube for free viewing with subs. It's okay if you don't have the financial means to support them, but don't misunderstand where that support is going.

Roy was entirely correct here I’m sorry to say and the fact that HE’S the only one to apologize. ??????? And then we just move on ??? they were so doomed I fear

CW for Rants abt Life

Everytime I'm dealing with Stupid Customers (the ones who called me names / the ones who told me to Suffer / the ones who made a huge deal over me "not smiling enough" etc), and I told my exhausting experience to others, they would always say "well u should've done it better / give better service / stop complaining etc" like it just shows that they are equally as cruel as the customers i had to deal with.

[goldenharmony]

People are really acting like Sokka's sexism arc was the "Zuko redemption arc" of unlearning sexism and its kinda annoying lol 😭

[degendog]

I um usually always wear girl clothes because thats what is expected by others of me

Im worried of becoming scary... im sorry for complaining

sounds like you need to start doing the shit you want to do, not what others want from you. you’re a grown ass man. what you need is confidence, not to be a fucking doormat. you exist for yourself, not anybody else.

if you decide that you want to keep wearing women’s clothes and makeup because that’s what you want to do, then that’s your prerogative. by all means continue.

but if there’s even the slightest chance you’ll be happier in men’s clothes, maybe it’s time to start updating your wardrobe. measure your waist and inseam and buy some jeans or some boxer briefs. get a button-down with the buttons on the right. pin a rolled up sock inside the front of your underwear. do the shit you want to do.

and most of all, stop trying to make yourself palatable to everyone else. who gives a shit if you’re “scary”? who gives a shit if you’re “ugly”? everyone is scary to someone and everyone is ugly to someone. what matters is that you’re happy and confident in yourself. if you define yourself by others’ expectations, you’ll continue to shrink yourself down to fit in their boxes until there’s nothing of you left. get out of that habit now, before it destroys you, and start building back up the man you really are.

you must break the cycle today or you’ll continue it tomorrow.

You ever get to the point in a show, where you’re not sure if you’re accurately seeing what’s really there, or if there’s so much influence from fandoms and headcanons that it permanently skews your point of view? 

I’m still watching Yellowstone, though at this point, I don’t know why. It’s edging towards Game of Thrones level of “There Are No Likeable Characters Why Am I Watching This?”

I used to really like Beth. Honestly, I did. But the more I rewatched it, and the more that the story progresses, the more I just want to slap the shit out of her, because she is a modern day Antigone, and it’s driving me up the wall. 

I am more than willing to admit that a huge chunk of that is because I personally hate the narrative of the only love you can have is for your spouse, or your biological family. Like somehow sharing DNA or a bed is the only way you can ‘truly’ love someone. Because fuck that narrative. I don’t see my biological family except once every 20 years (a few, next time I see them, will be their funeral, because they’re twats). My godchildren have no biolgical ties to me whatsoever, and my parents treat them like their grandchildren. I love them as if they were my own. I have never, ever wanted biological kids but I want to adopt at some point, and I will go to jail for assault and battery if anyone ever tried to tell me the vile crap they spew on TV shows regarding adoption. 

But at this point, I want Beth dead. I want her dead, and I don’t want a miracle walk away, because I draw the line at threatening children, especially toddlers. I don’t give a fuck what happened - this does not make the case of ‘Well, Beth would be nicer if she had her own kids’ because we’ve seen she absolutely would not. She’s undiagnosed schizophrenic psychopath at this point. The beginning of the season she’s telling her father he needs to move on from his wife, which is fucking hilarious given that she has sabotaged every attempt at a relationship her father has like some deranged Elektra complex with the justification that ‘they’re not my mother, and they can never compare’ (up to and including arranging to have one of the women thrown into prison for 10 years). She has a husband who loves unconditionally, and has point blank said he doesn’t want kids, he doesn’t even like dogs. She winds up with a teenager that comes to live at the ranch that desperately wants her to be his mom, she has a job whenever she needs one, her father loves her and still - she is a fucking horrible human being. The kid she ‘adopts’ - she and Rip throw him in the basement, and the first time she gets mad at him, she assaults him in a store, and another mother films her and threatens to call CPS (which she should’ve anyways) and the mother is shown as the nosy-busybody Karen who should mind her own business. Beth has the patience of a honey badger on meth. She has zero impulse control. None of which would magically be fixed if she had a biological child. 

But that seems to be where the narrative is heading. Like oh, it’s because of her brother that she’s this upset/unhinged/self-loathing....if ONLY SHE COULD REPRODUCE, SHE WOULD BE FULFILLED. Are. You. Fucking. Kidding me. And everything in the fandom is how great Beth is, and how relatable she is, and then going through fanfic, the she’s written so completely out of character you would assume that it was a mis-labelled AU, and it makes me wonder if we’re watching the same show. If the character they’re writing is what they identify with, they’re not the same person, and the more I watch the show trying to see what they see, the more I know we’re not watching the same thing. 

At this point, if Jamie doesn’t eventually snap and kill her or at least hit her with the car, I will be amazed.

did they just keep the "vs Dante" musical score in the nocturne remaster even if you fight Raidou?

Why didn't they remaster the Devil Summoner boss theme or something?

missed opportunity... of course that would add extra work as well... but~~~ (references obscure game that never got released outside japan, new fans don't have context for the musical track if they actually did a remix of the devil summoner boss track, and I can see fans of og nocturne getting upset that the original track wasn't there if they did that)

though I don't play the game so I shouldn't have an opinion...

I mean the one we got is cool; but I'd liked to see another reference to Devil Summoner. I could see them remixing multiple devil summoner tracks for Raidou.

feels like I shouldn't have an opinion cause I'm a fake fan cause anxiety gatekeeping me from playing the games and having fun

the music in SMT is absolutely god tier~~~~ Not sorry that it was the music that got me here~~~
