"oh please purchase the movies/shows you've been pirating uwu face"
how. where. where am i supposed to purchase movies/shows that do not ever get physical releases because streaming services would rather you pay to access them only to completely remove them on a whim?
piracy is media preservation and I'll die on this hill
So can we get an all women’s season of physical 100 XD I’m pretty sick of the constant “well they’re not physically strong so our team is going to suck” it’s pretty fucking annoying when it happens to literally every single woman contestant :/
I noticed in the Adventurer's Bible that Laios dislikes ghosts and assumed it was because they're just dead humans, hardly monsters at all, but the anime reminded me that it was his idea to visit the graveyard because there was a ghost there. I guess the possession made him dislike ghosts, the same way he was afraid of living armor for a while. Shame he can't overcome this by eating a ghost. Guess sorbet just won't cut it.

I need to drive around in the fading light of the sun with someone playing our favorite music until sunset then sit on the roof of my car and talk about everything until the stars appear and we stargaze holding hands

punishments don't work for me! i talk about this sometimes. people ask about it more.
punishments serve one of two purpose (sometimes both at once, i suppose) — either as a form of play or a way to mould behavior and enforce obedience. it's the difference between spanking because the sub and the dom enjoy it, or spanking to punish misbehavior and reinforce who's in charge.
but i don't enjoy it, so that part is already out. and the way i play, misbehavior doesn't play into it. if a dom asks something of me that i can reasonably deliver (and that's within the bounds of our dynamic/agreement/etc, obviously) i am never going to say no. i love serving! i'm obedient to a fault. and if they ask for something i know i cannot deliver, i'll say that up front, and we can work out alternatives so i'm not saying yes to something that's not possible and dooming us both to disappointment.
and if i say yes to something and fail to do it, there is something very wrong — either i'm sick or experiencing the worst depressive episode of my life or my traumas are flaring or etc — and feeling shamed or liked a disappointment would kill me on the spot. i cannot overstate how bad it is for me, when i'm already the kind of low that might cause me to renege on something i promised a dom, to feel the part of chastised child. there's no need to punish misbehavior because if i'm misbehaving it's not me being obstinate, it's me falling apart in a way that punishment will make worse, not help.
anyway the broader point of this post, aside from me loving to talk about myself, is like...i talk to people pretty regularly who don't understand why i don't do punishments or what Justification i have for not doing punishments. i talk to people who don't WANT to do petplay or anal or denial or bondage etc, but feel like they have to because it's Part Of BDSM. but i think it's important to ask — not just about punishments, but about most aspects of kink! — what the actual goal of the dynamic and people involved are. there's nothing that you should be doing in d/s just because you're Supposed To; everything should be on purpose. if punishments don't serve the dynamic and the people in it, you don't need to do punishments! the same way you don't need to do oral or overstim or anything at all that doesn't serve you and your partner. there's no rules here aside from taking care of yourself and your partner. you don't need a justification for saying no to something, let alone just because that thing is popular in tumblr kink spaces
welcome to erods adventures with finnish media electric boogaloo because the first one was so great we had to make a second one but this time guest starring lundy!! now lundy has to deal with roddy shenanigans.
this man is getting pingponged between the finns as they decide who has babysitting presser duties for the day and its beautiful you cant escape him he will find a way to get partnered with a finn just to hear them speak in finnish
"no way!" he had so much fun last time with mikksy hes gonna do it again oh arent you blessed lundy you got a presser buddy who staunchly adheres to the buddy system!! he wont leave you alone!!! look at him smiling with the force of a thousand suns!!!
erod turns into an absolute puppy and lundy cant handle it, shying away like if he looks at roddy for longer than a second he might get blinded and when lundy glances over erod looks down to his lap-
why are both of you acting shy WHAT IS THIS WHAT ARE YOU DOING WHAT ARE YOU- YALL SITTING IN A TREE K-I-S-S-I-N-G OUT HERE???... playground flirting...
mc adding "evan AND anton will be answering in finnish now" yeahhhhhhh thats the stuff lets be a little goofy with it lets be silly make roddy smile with the funsies of it all
when you have to lock in because lundy actually has a job to do here and you cant just sit there and make him giggle the whole time despite your jester blood screaming to you that its your cosmic duty
first i lol'd then i serious'd
the wall of "dad is in a business meeting but its take your son to workday so i ALSO have to be at the business meeting too" aka roddy has to sit still and find his own fun that is zoning out and looking over at lundy when he says a word you know (which isnt many in the first place)
"kiitos" "kiitos!" lundy slipping it in first before erod can and erod waiting and following his lead. excitedable puppy learns manners and patience for the first time ever and waits until AFTER the interview to say it instead of interrupting the reporters oh we love character growth. both of them smiling as they get up from their seats OH OHHHHHHHHH
"youre working on it!" YES! YES HE IS! maybe one day they'll get him to say something other than kiitos that day is not today but soon
Wheat stalk bc nickelodeon wouldn’t let them put a cigarette in there
this brings up broader discourse of would atla universe even have tobacco. like there's no rules its a fantasy world they could have tobacco but would they ? if so where would it be grown ? they have alcohol (its referenced in the Kyoshi novels) and in s2e1 Aang has a drink that's presumably caffeinated (though its probably tea and not coffee - existence of coffee beans is ANOTHER avenue of discourse - personally on the side of no coffee so we can escape coffee-drinker headcanons...) but there are no intimations at any other stimulants/substances... this is probably cus its a y-7 Nickelodeon cartoon but like usually there's SOMETHING....
they definitely have weed though only thing that explains Chong
