#it's okay everyone thinks she's hot
Text
Idk if this is a hot take but why is it always “Kai slaved away and worked his ass off to raise his sister” and never the other way round or them working hard together?
Like, I know he’s older but in the show, does he really… act older? Like if you think about Kai and Nya’s dynamic yknow? Because from my understanding:
When Kai and Nya are introduced we see Kai fail at making a sword and Nya being the one to chide him for it. Kai makes an overconfident statement about wanting to be a better blacksmith than his father. This suggests that one, Kai is rather rash as well as inexperienced (something that lines up with the rest of his character arc in the pots and also generally), with Nya being the more mature figure in contrast
Also just a note but in the shorts: “I can handle it!” “No you can’t, stupid”
Kai frequently being very good at neglecting people or things: leaving Lloyd at an arcade whilst being focused on finding samurai x, not even knowing samurai x was Nya or that she only did it because she felt left out by him, completely abandoning both Nya and Lloyd in s3 (and Ik he was going through it at the time, but in line with the fandom’s characterisation of him)
Kai in season 5: “After I lost my dad, I lost my way. But I was lucky to have my sister watch over me”
Generally, their dynamic isn’t one where Kai really provides for Nya at all. In fact, judging by the fact that Nya can make entire mechs and Kai struggled to make a sword, Nya was probably busting her ass to provide for Kai. And judging by the s5 quote, that’s probably true. I’m not saying Nya raised Kai, it just rubs me the wrong way when she’s treated like a decorative flourish to a narrative that paints Kai as a burnt out child who was forced to grow up too soon especially since that is such a mischaracterisation of him in the first place.
#all I’m saying is that it’s weird we undersell all of the sister’s capabilities just so we can present the brother as tormented and burdened#ignoring the fact that he spent all his days in the gap between the pilots and s1 playing video games#like I’m sorry kai is a pathetic baby girl in the show and I LOVE HIM THE WAY HE IS#okay yeah I snapped a little#I’m just tired of everyone mischaracterising him yknow#like I’m sorry bestie he’s not that capable he’s a loser man and I am ready to love loser men#i just think that it’s an incredibly stereotypical dynamic to have one male character who everyone completely#over exaggerates their struggles to the point of making it seem that everyone else in the story either doesn’t suffer or is an asshole for#not noticing the suffering of this one hot guy#this happens in many fandoms and I think this is what’s happening here#hhhhh#I’m sorry if Kai is ur favourite and this opinion upsets you I don’t mean to be bitch#I’m just really not into this interpretation of him#again this isn’t a dog at his character I just thing people don’t get him a lot of the time#and you know what Nya is also super undersold as a character#like where’s the fucking Nya Lloyd sibling content?#she mentored Lloyd too? she taught him how to ride dragons she stayed with him on the bounty she and Lloyd only had eachother in s9#what about them??#Kai gets too woobified and Nya doesn’t get woobified enough that’s my opinion#alright I’m done sorry#Ninjago#rant#ig this is a#ninjago analysis#i won’t tag characters cuz I don’t want to make anyone upset#and again I’m sorry if I do

I love learning ASL it’s so good. Makes me happy to learn it. I’m so glad my university has classes for it with professors actually steeped in Deaf culture.
#blue chatter#am I good at ASL? hahahahahahaha. no.#ASL and English grammar are incredibly different and even when I remember my vocab I am easily clockable as hearing#but I do have some language capacity now. enough to communicate the basics.#and I just. genuinely really enjoy it. it’s fun to learn and engaging in a way most of my classes just aren’t.#and I can. yanno. communicate respectfully w Deaf ppl. and learn about their culture#which is incredibly important given that I want to go into a field where there is a higher incidence than typical of Deaf people#autistic? you’re more likely to be Deaf!#not to mention the fact that sign language can sometimes be a useful alternative to speech for nonspeaking/nonverbal people#depending on the person obvi; some nonspeaking/nonverbal autistics cannot use sign language and that’s okay#but surely at some point I will encounter either a Deaf client or a nonspeaking/nonverbal client who uses ASL#and when that time comes I should have some idea of how to communicate with them#I also rly like the Deaf church by my parents’ house#their community is really welcoming and their services are really interesting#I think it’s rly cool how they take intentions directly from the congregation#they’ll raise their hands and then sign what their intention is from their pew to the ambo#which is rly neat#it is funny bc every time I go the Deaf ppl I talk to will tell each other ‘go slow she’s hearing’#which is ENTIRELY fair bc. I am hearing. and I do need them to go slower.#but it also makes me laugh bc truly everyone knows within a few minutes.#oh hey the new person? they’re hearing. yeah they’re learning ASL at college. sign slowly for her.#which again makes sense bc a big Deaf culture thing is keeping ppl informed. it’s not gossip it’s getting everyone on the same page.#Deaf ppl do NOT beat around the bush that is like the height of rudeness to them. u say what u mean goshdangit. do not waste their time.#which I appreciate the heck out of bc i don’t have to try and phrase things delicately or w/e#it was also funny bc my mom came w me while I was home for Christmas and they asked her if I was her kid#and she said yes. and the lady running the kid’s craft corner thing was like ‘great you’re doing a craft now’#and I’m sitting there. visibly over 18 years old. amongst several seven year olds. trying desperately to figure out how to say hot glue gun#I made a v pretty pinecone tree it was a lot of fun ^-^

tbh liking hien on tumblr feels like liking edward again :/
#i talk#will literally have a blog themed after the guy and see 1 post of him a week. okay#tumblr just recommending me emet selch and estinien. i do not care.#i also dont like searching through tags because of heavensward fuckers that make everything worse#'this exp didnt have yaoi elves in it' dude the buduga are explicitly gay. also shut up#also also then youll have ppl complaining about yotsuyu dying like girl. she comitted genocide lmao#yeah bad things happened to her but like? same? girl u are in your thirties please just talk to somebody#'hes the king how is it not his place to judge' you cannot decide what is worse. genocide or human trafficking.#they were under imperial rule. there were few ways to survive in morally good ways. hien is not condoning the action#also everyone that looks at yotsuyu and is genuinely like well shes hot she can do no wrong#Missed The Point also i dont think she'd like you in the first place.#anyway.#tumblr show me stuff i actually wanna see challenge

Someone should show Crowley this song
I think he'd say "it's sure not about Hastur".
You know, because someone who looks like a crackhead, doesn't shower, and wears a toad on his head (with a wig on top of the toad) will hardly woo a lady.
#Spotify#good omens#powerwolf#crowley back off from my boy#okay fine show hastur couldn't woo a lady#but my fan hot version of him sure could#i should draw him#again i mean#crowley... could woo a lady maybe (bi and tbh in my works mostly a she... i should really be working on these fanfictions shouldn't I)#i think he knows how to flirt but isn't nearly as slick as he thinks he is#he's also not a player like everyone knows though he'd pretend he is#diary pages#the toil of finding music for go fanfiction when you hate queen

um??? 2.5k in one sitting who???
#the problem is that i still need to write the rest of the fic#because i have the beginning and the ending and not the actual plot#but not a bad start#also maybe i will do an epilogue where bill meets martha and discovers that she is very awesome#but also a hot mess just like everyone else and not nearly as cool as she seems by the traces of her left on the TARDIS#already started a fic like that with amy even before i started writing this#can't do it with rose and I don't know if i want one with clara#donna doesn't work either and i think the doctor would actually die if he had to see donna again as twelve#oh i should edit and post that other fic actually that does have that#okay one sec#spoof.txt

genuinely one day im gonna lose it with my school friends i’ve only started to notice it recently but they just straight up refuse to use my preferred pronouns and sure it’s hard to adjust but not that hard. and it’s like they just will not accept that i am autistic, every time i bring it up they just shut down entirely and like that’s not gonna fly forever because it’s literally just. me. and i can’t pretend it’s not there and it involves way more than me just being charmingly obsessive about doctor who
#like. no coincidence i get on best with people who respect my boundaries by not pushing me on why i dont want to do something#or who if i explain why just say oh okay and move on#like. told one of them i didn’t like running bc the movement is too jerky and it makes me feel sick (i have bad vestibular processing)#and she was oh but you swim. yeah its different!!#and i was like oh i hate most sports except these specific ones bc there is no worse sensory hell than being hot and sweaty#in your pe uniform#and my memories of that are so genuinely horrendous i refuse to play tennis ever now#and my other friend was like yeah i think thats pretty universal like#yes it is because everyone has a sensory processing system#its just Worse if your system is Worse whats hard to understand#you didnt like it i wanted to claw my skin off#so i dissociated throughout most of school#makes me so upset geninely#ais.log

hmm. had an actual conversation with nightmare coworker today that seemed mutually productive. she apologized for saying some bullshit that hurt my feelings and i clarified that my intentions are to help not to undermine her, and we both agreed that there's no competition against each other and that it's the lack of growth in our role that's the problem. it was...productive.
and further cementing for me that it is time to begin making my Exit. i will be sending out my resume to a few places this weekend.
i'm still processing the conversation, and am struggling to place myself in where i am responsible to better my behavior. because i genuinely don't want to be an ass, even though i really don't like this lady and will jump for joy the day i never have to see her again. she stated that she knows my intentions aren't to hurt her, and that she thinks i'm very kind. i apologized for if my behavior came off as undermining her, and said that my intentions are only to better my own growth—and that i know she's trying to succeed too. i validated her feelings, and complemented the effort she is putting in.
where i'm struggling with is: am i in the wrong/causing harm and needing to change if the issue is that her feelings are incongruent with what she knows of my intentions? her feelings are her responsibility (WOW i almost typed "her feelings are my responsibility". i feel like that's a freudian slip) and she states that she knows i don't mean to hurt her. i'm going to try to be more clear in wording my intentions with her (she feels like me trying to take work off her plate is to undermine her. when really, i'm caught up and see her getting overwhelmed, and i want to help and also have something to do since i'm bored).
but i'm really struggling to look at my role in this and pass judgement on myself. i can and want to do better, and i don't think i did anything wrong, but i'm always so hesitant to say it's not my fault or i didn't do something bad. like i can't trust my judgement on that. my intentions were good, her bad feelings are ones caused by her insecurities, which she more or less has expressed to be aware that they are not true—the hurtful thing she said to me, she acknowledged was said out of hurt and not what she actually thinks. so, is it fair to say i'm not the bad guy? i'm not in the wrong? i know good intentions that still result in harm don't absolve anyone, but when the things that are clashing are insufficient communication and reactive insecurities... i'm not a monster, am i?
#well. i AM probably a monster for how much i dislike this lady#but i don't ACT on it#and i genuinely couldn't care less about her. i participate in decent human pleasantries because i am a decent human.#and at work we're stuck together#the thing that's irked me so much about this conversation is just.. her self centeredness#that she thinks everyone is out to get her. to undermine her. whatever.#bitch nobody cares about you enough one way or the other to put in that kind of effort. i sure don't#i empathize but i do not sympathize. to feel that pit that makes you feel like the worst kind of center of attention#i get it. but genuinely you are not the main character and no one is going to spend their limited time and energy to slowly attack you#you are not the cat with all the knives pointed at it#it's a terrible feeling to feel like you are! but when it influences your behavior to the point that you are making snide comments#to people who have no option not to interact with you then uh. then you're in the wrong buddy#and the people around you (who cannot easily leave! bc work!) should not have to bend over backwards to assure you#that they're not pointing knives at you. to protect themselves from your feelings making you say mean shit#like yes. i can be more clear with my intentions. i'm generally not the greatest at that. but my baseline that i want to#modify my behavior from is NOT one that a regular well adjusted person would take as anything but kind#and if a regular well adjusted person got a little offput by me volunteering to take work off their hands we would've had a very chill#3 sentence conversation about it MONTHS AGO.#i understand and respect (even if i find it annoying and overbearing) the need for me to announce my intentions like im working in a kitchen#and saying 'hot water' or 'knife' as i move around other people but we shouldn't have reached this conclusion this way#and frankly who's to fucking say me being more clear with my intentions will only feed the flames of her thinking i'm out to get her!#'i caught up on my stuff and your plate looks full. i'm bored. anything i can do to help?' could be a pointed knife for all i know!!#and if it is- and my actions still hurt her in that scenario- am i still responsible for the hurt caused??#like WHERE DOES IT FUCKING E N D ?#personal#*exhales* okay i feel better now#i just hate talking about my interactions with her bc i just want NOTHING to do with it. i want her out of my head!!#but until i process it i can't let go#and i'm still going to have to go over all of this with my shrink tomorrow#it just makes me mad how much of my time this bitch takes up. i'm not getting paid to think about work right now!!!!

"if [name of 'they're-not-my-crush-i-just-really-like-them!'] suddenly walked in here and started making out with you, how would you feel?" did wonders for the questioning queers, i've gotta admit
#core memory of me saying emma watson was my childhood crush & my two friends interrogating me on the way to chem from band#“wait you like girls?” “no i just...i just really like emma watson okay” “but you think she's hot?” “???? doesn't everyone?” “so you're gay”#“No i'm not...gay - i just-” (to the other girl) “yeah she's gay”#“if emma watson all of a sudden walked in here and started making out with you what would you do?”#and then my brain malfunctioned bc the scene was set in my brain. btw it wasn't even like good i just never tried it before#my roommate last year did this with someone else too and i was like Can Y'all Stop. I Already Know I'm Gay

I start to question why all the coupley memes I send my boyfriend are of either cats or lesbians and then I'm reminded that straight people think that romance is being actively a dick to everyone who isn't your partner.
#what the fuck man#'when I'm walking in front of a FEMALE I always SLAM doors as hard as possible behind me bc she's not MY GIRL#god forbid you show human decency to a woman you're not fucking I guess#what the fuck is wrong with you people#and the women who choose to date these men#how are you older than 13 and still think it's hot when a man is rude to everyone apart from you#are you aware that you will receive the same treatment when you cease to have value to him sexually#and the whole 'if my boyfriend isn't invited to girl's night I'm not coming either'#okay then bitch stay home#i don't have gender segregated friend groups because I'm normal but i still wouldn't compulsorily drag my boyfriend to EVERY social event!!#because i have meaningful relationships outside my romantic one!!!#what the fuck#anyway yes. cats and lesbians. only.#some straight couples on the internet are okay#a lot of them aren't straight couples it's bi girlies with straight boyfriends who are normal#which works because I to have a straight boyfriend and he is normal and not a misogynist#if my boyfriend was mean to girls who aren't me (he wouldn't be) he wouldn't be my boyfriend :(

anyway i caught up on spy x family within the last 24 hours and i'm fucking in love with it
#another lukewarm take but whatever. it is so fucking cute#brace yourself for more lukewarm takes#starting with my misconceptions going in. because i gleefully live under a rock#misconception number 1: I THOUGHT THEY WERE A REAL FAMILY. NOBODY TOLD ME IT WAS A FAKE ASS MARRIAGE. I LOVE THE REALITY SO MUCH MORE THAN#WHAT I THOUGHT IT WAS. I HAD NO IDEA. I FUCKING LOVE IT I LOVE THEM#misconception number 2: i thought Yor was gonna be 100% femme fatale. i did not know she was gonna be 50% shoujo protagonist#i am obsessed with her#she is my pathetic little scrunkly who is allowed to kill sometimes for enrichment#i want to hold her by the scruff#all those posts about 'what about HER bloodlust and HER crimes and HER patheticness' that's Yor. that's Yor#i was slightly skeptic at first but i am not. at all. anymore. i like her#misconception number 3: I DID NOT KNOW ANYA IS LITERALLY A TELEPATH. I DID NOT KNOW. I THOUGHT EVERYONE WAS SPEAKING METAPHORICALLY.#I AM OBSESSED WITH HER. SHE IS THE MOST CHARACTER EVER. SHE IS MY LITTLE ANGEL. SHE IS A MEME. but we knew that#misconception number 4: i thought it was be less comedy-centric. this is not a complaint. i love it so much. i love my silly spy show#okay here's one hot take. Yuri is the most horrible annoying character and i am obsessed with him i love him. i think he should be put down#Damian is also my little angel. i think that's probably a lukewarm take#talking tag#spy x family spoilers in tags#okay i'm done. btw yes i do exclusively ramble in tags. yes it is egregious. sorry#(<- not sorry)#okay bye. time to watch inuyasha#rue watch party
