rewatching tlou show and I think the exchange between Marlene and Ellie on Riley is super interesting actually. Ellie says something about the fireflies being terrorists and Marlene shoots back with “terrorists, really? was Riley a terrorist?” ignoring that it’s kinda fucked to bring her up rn like. yeah. she is. by definition. I think it’s so interesting the way it weaves into all the central themes of the show. yes Riley is a terrorist and no the fact that we love her and have seen a different side to her doesn’t negate that. Marlene is clearly trying to have Ellie see them as less foreign and trying to get her to give them a shot by associating themselves to someone she cares about but. literally none of that matters

there is more depth and complexity in priam pleading with achilles than there is in the entire bible
#i once wrote a whole essay about it#how it represents a unique pagan perspective on forgiveness#but really christians are so arrogant sometimes#lmao at least the characters of the iliad and the odyssey for that matter#are actually characters#if you asked me about any character i could tell you about them#who they are what they are like what their goals are and so on#they are multifaceted and full of internal and external struggles and undergo character development#and even if this characterization of homeric epics was accurate#and i maintain it's not#but even if it was#we still have all the greek tragedies#which are again famous for their depth and complexity#christians stop being arrogant and develop some nuance challenge#lmao#how is the binding of isaac psychologically complex anyway?#like lol abraham doesn't even seem to hesitate at all#there is no evidence of internal psychological struggle#so i'd like to know what op is talking about#lol what is the ever abiding question of this tale?#the iliad on the other hand raises questions about#glory war mortality friendship love honor fate and so on#i could write essays about the love of achilles and patroclus#or the rivalry between achilles and hector#or as i mentioned the scene between achilles and priam#or the anguish of achilles#lmao not interesting or vital my ass#and don't even get me started on the odyssey#also glory and honor and revenge and duty and returning home#are all much more salient motivating factors than gold or women

remembering the time i drunkenly told a stranger i was a trans man and he started going off about alpha sigma and beta males and how each one was equally important no matter what anyone says and that i shouldn't feel pressured to be a strong alpha male because emotionally intelligent beta males were just as important

yknow i never noticed the sheer rareness of images having ids or alt text on this website until i started adding alt text to my art (and trying to remember to add it to any images i post in general, especially text screenshots) and that makes me kinda sad

Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism 👍🏾 you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.

Some spins on the "mostly male team with a token woman" trope:
The woman is trans and stayed in her old circle of bros even after transition
The woman is the only one in her circle of "girls" who didn't turn out to be a trans man

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again
#yeehaw#1k#5k#10k#posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours?#also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that!#unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference#edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense#also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags#1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now#he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic#2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign#like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock#3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing#it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is#extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once#it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life#i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about#Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect#if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it#aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week
