“We can judge our progress by the courage of our questions and the depth of our answers, our willingness to embrace what is true rather than what feels good.” ― Carl Sagan

A Linked Universe meets The Dark Crystal AU! I don't even remember what started it at this point. I remembered that the Dark Crystal and Age of Resistance are things I like, blinked, and woke up three days later with an AU and a bunch of art.

The designs and the story are a wip and for fun so expect a lot of variation! (I have a few different beginnings, ideas for different designs, etc)! :D

In addition to #linked universe I'll be using the tags #the dark crystal lu au and #courage of the dark crystal!

The odds are that we will probably be alright Odds are we're gonna be alright Odds are we're gonna be alright tonight The odds are that we will probably be alright Odds are we're gonna be alright Odds are we're gonna be alright for another night Barenaked ladies - Odds are

Headcanon I'm ready to die for: Shi Qingxuan ages like wine.

Another headcanon I'm ready to die for: wherever Shi Qingxuan lives, they don't let He Xuan cross the threshold of their home if he doesn't bring ingredients for dinner. Shi Qingxuan has learnt to cook (don't worry, not from Xie Lian), but there's no way they're feeding such gluttonous guest from their own supplies!

How often do you read questions on Tumblr without answering them?

I wish I could say never but

i really like the dichotomy of everyone respecting Nana as their friend off stage (and the darker feeling she has that they All take from her in one way or another except Karen) but inside the stage duels as performers with her as their ultimate test, they're all still prideful enough to treat it as every man's glory for themselves, making it so they can't hold a grudge against Nana outside the Revues because to everyone the Revues are Just Business and a space for words that don't belong outside it- which plays into the repression that's hurting all their relationships, they really thought of everything making this series

ARIIII

Suguru wedding thoughts? Would he be the nervous groom who appears calm and collected or a sweaty mess who’s shaking and stuttering? 👀

Would he cry at the altar when he first sees you and how would he react if you cry? 🥺🥺🥺

How would his vows and the first kiss be? 🥺❤️He’d be super romantic and would want to show your parents and all the guests how much he’ll cherish and love you 💕

He’s such a sweet man omg need him soooo bad

Pls feed us groom and wedding suguru thoughts 🥺💕💕💕💕💕

hi my little anon <33333 I LOVE THINKING ABT SUGU AND MARRIAGE . SO MUCH…… he’s a closeted SAP i know and perceive the truth :3c

i think he would be reeeally emotional… it’s something he daydreams about for a while, long before he proposes. when it finally happens he’s honestly a complete wreck but is he gonna let you in on it??? no, of course not. can’t have his future spouse worrying about him!! (you already know because he’s been staring into space for like . ten minutes straight and his brow keeps twitching 💀)

he just wants everything to be perfect for you. so he tries to keep himself together…. but he’s really really nervous. really excited. constantly on the verge of tears. i don’t think he Actually cries until he sees you, though…. in your wedding attire :’) he just can’t help it. sniffles through his vows even though he spent so long writing & memorizing them. he just feels so, so grateful :(((( i think suguru wants to be your husband more than anything….. gives you the sweetest kiss and keeps telling you how much he loves you, how he’ll make you happy…. and if you cry he wipes your tears one by one. kisses them away.

…… yeah. he’s a sap!!!!!!

New Dawn of Gratitude

In the morning's calm,

dreams softly call,

a nudge to rise,

feel your heart's beat.

Love, a warm light,

hope, a gentle wind,

leading your way,

even when doubts creep in.

With each stumble, find your strength,

let joy color your day,

for in the threads of effort,

there's a promise,

that whispers,

"You're on the right path."

“We must be free not because we claim freedom, but because we practice it.”

~ William Faulkner

As crazy as this may sound, there are large numbers of the population that will need to learn to be free. The illusionary walls of the matrix run deep in people’s consciousness and the ‘safety’ of prison is chosen by many, over the risk of the unknown.

The structure, the rules, the norms, the welfare system, the false security and the state as the protector of the masses, runs deep in people’s psyche, after all, we were all indoctrinated to believe that without it there is only chaos and anarchy.

The constant overwhelming fear mongering with threats of climate disasters, global pandemics, endless wars or nuclear armageddon are designed to make you feel powerless and defenceless in the face of catastrophic threats and therefore needing of the governmental structures and processes to keep you safe and alive. ‘Little you’ can do nothing without them.

Freedom from the matrix is therefore dangerous in the eyes of the masses who feel they need the constant ‘protection’ from a hostile, dangerous world in continuous turmoil.

The Covid pandemic brought to light how much people were willing to give up for a little safety, it was sad to witness the degree of servitude, compliance, ignorance, reliance and in some cases utter stupidity we have reached as a species.

The dumming down purpose of education was a success. The herd mentality is deeply ingrained and the addiction to fear is systemic, so does real freedom stand a chance?

Those of us that are called conspiracy theorists; crazy, radical, nonconformists, us weirdos, have a vision, an understanding, a sense of the freedom that is ours to exercise and each day that we put it into practice, as difficult as it sometimes is, we are spreading the spark, the feeling, the notion, the awareness, that a better reality is possible beyond the matrix and that we don’t need it, in order to survive. In fact, it’s the matrix itself that is designed to keep us from thriving and merely surviving.

Our living example is the only thing that will transform the world. The herd will realise that it’s possible and as soon as they dare to step into freedom, the walls of the matrix will collapse.

This journey is entirely about learning, about knowledge and wisdom, but perhaps the hardest lesson, as sad as it is, is for humanity to learn to be free. 🤔
