#just no toxicity

Voltron ships! :)

Ok, so my Voltron ships are:

Keith x Allura

Lance x Pidge

Hunk x Shay

Hunk x Pidge

Veronica x Acxa

I don't ship gay couples generally (Veracxa is cute tho) but I respect the canon gay pairing of Shiro x Curtis. Hate Sheith with a passion cause I don't do incest (and yes, adoptive incest is still incest in my eyes, so shut up Sheith shippers). Klance is okay. Not my thing but you do you. I respect you for it.

I am editing this to add again I don't want toxicity. You do not have to read my posts if you disagree. If you feel such a need to make me agree with you, please go out more :) These are just my preferences. I am allowed to hate things which make me sick to my stomach.

“these characters should be mentally healthy before they get together 😌” ummm no I actually think we should smash their mental illnesses together like clumps of play-doh and see what colors it makes

Guess who is back in their gravity falls phase! (After it being dormant for almost a decade!)

A reminder for those of us with cats at Easter that lilies of ANY kind are BAD for cats. Some species such as Calla, Peace and Peruvian do not cause kidney damage or death like Easter and daylilies, but they can still cause irritation and gastrointestinal issues if ingested...

I have some questions about karaoke night, Alex Hirsch. Very Important Questions. Which I will happily scream at a poor hapless baby triangle who can have no answers for me, and possibly also does not have object permanence yet.

Follow-up that is I guess suggestive, but let's be real here, Bill's a fucking triangle:

Dude slipped right into his birthday suit, lmao

this is so stupid :D

Anyway, I don't care what anyone says, this brilliant individual knows what's up - Bill is absolutely way more of a monsterfucker than Ford could or ever will be, full stop.

intimacy between an evil spiteful building-sized supercomputer and the lone scientist left behind after everyone else ditched and forgot about her (in which computer wants to kill scientist really bad but her programming wont let her so she just attempts to make her as miserable as possible instead, which also doesn't work because scientist is a freak)

[inkskinned]

it's been said before and i'm sure said better than i can phrase it. but really, really - if you like making "i'm going to kill myself" jokes, please try switching to being ironically conceited instead.

anytime something goes wrong, say things like "ah well at least i'm beautiful and charming and everyone loves me." when you forget something, try "my big huge brain is so smart and thinking about too many other very big wizardly thoughts you wouldn't even understand." when you're frustrated by one of your symptoms, start talking like you're in My Immortal. "Life has come for me but my eyes are beautiful pools of gorgeous fire and my hair is amazing. I stuck my middle finger up at life and told it to fuck off and it did."

just... try it for a month or two. try saying the most absurdly self-congratulatory shit you can think of.

i know it's tempting to make suicide or self-harm jokes. and for me at least, a decade ago (!) when someone suggested i stop making those kinds of jokes, i was kind of at a loss for what to replace them with. i wanted to make light of these moments, but genuinely (at the time) my first thought really was suicidal ideation. there was a part of me that even felt like ... i was kind of "making light" of that voice. that if i could say i want to die lol, it would help take the sting out of that genuine (albeit passive) desire. like i could turn my illness into a joke.

when i started complimenting myself instead, it felt awkward and stupid. it felt really, really ironic. what i was actually saying was nobody would ever think this stuff about me, that's what makes it so fucking funny.

but. the effect was immediate. first thing i noticed was the people around me. when i dropped a glass and said ah my skin is too beautiful and sleek the glass has swooned and broken for me, other people were suddenly overjoyed to jump in with the joke. rather than making an awkward moment, we'd both start cracking up. ah princess sleek hands, i've heard of you.

i was 19. i hadn't noticed i'd been making others tense when i said i want it all to end. i know now that it's incredibly hard to know how to walk that moment - do you talk to them about your concern? do you potentially make them uncomfortable by asking if they're okay? do you ignore the situation? do you help them pick up the glass, or do they need to do it by themselves? are they genuinely made suicidal over this small moment? and most importantly, how do you - without professional training or supplies - actually help?

most people want to help you pick up the glass in your life, they just have no fucking idea how to do it. they don't want to make anything worse. they don't want to make assumptions about you. they love you, they're scared for you - and being scared makes people kind of freeze up. it's not because they don't love you. it's because they do.

now when something bad happens, my first thought is how can i make a stupid joke about this. it isn't my brain saying you're a dumb fucking bitch. i spend more time laughing. i spend more time being gentle with myself. i spend more time feeling good.

and the thing is - what's kind of funny - is that you'd be surprised by how many people agree with you. the first time i said i'm too pretty to understand that, someone else said to be fair you're the prettiest person in this room. i promise - you really don't know how kindly your friends see you. but they love you for a reason. they sort of reverse-velveteen-rabbit you. your weird and ugly spots fade away and you just become... the love they want to give you.

go love yourself ironically. the worst thing that happens is that you end up tricking your reflection into actually loving you.

Voltron Season 2 (Review)

Season 2 is a season that did better in terms of creating complexity for the characters. Allura’s whole arc with Keith had me on edge the whole time and I was mad at her even though I understood but I also just really wanted their friendship to work out. That hug! Omg, that hug! Season 2 was good for the hugs. Broganes and Kallura hugs all in one season. It is a better season than 1 just cause of that alone.

In a world where everyone is about Klance or Sheith, my little heart melted from the platonic and wonderful Broganes. The unconditional love and support between the brothers in their toughest moments – Shiro in the first episode and Keith finding out he was Galra and dealing with that. They truly were there in each other’s worst moments, which was beautiful.

Also, this season converted me to Kallura. They are not picture perfect but they help each other grow and omg I love that. Allura naturally has a lot of prejudice towards the Galra and Keith helps her not only question that but face her demons regarding this and open up, it was so cute! I loved it and did I mention the hug? I loved the hug they shared. Keith definitely starts to grow on me this season, its still not my favourite characterisation of him as he’s still a bit too hot-headed and rough around the edges, but he definitely grows on me more here.

Another character that became my favourite – started to in season 1 but more so in season 2 was the Black Lion. Yeah, she’s not a Paladin but I love the depth and complexity that was given to abuse. Her going back to Zarkon, allowing him to find them, wanting to go back to what was familiar is so true to abuse and I loved that. It was incredibly sad but also, so true! I’ve seen so many people leave relationships because they were toxic and come back to them. I’ve done the same with friendships and I feel Black’s pain. Even when we realise someone is toxic, its not as easy to leave them as one thinks. There are memories and attachments and it takes a lot of self-compassion and self-love. Something I am still learning and something Black had to learn too, with everyone’s help because she had the right friends or at least made them.

I loved the foreshadowing of her and Keith’s bond too. There were a lot of good individual episodes in this season and this season was definitely an improvement over season 1. I am not a big fan of monster of the week, episodic type of episodes but these ones I feel added to the show a lot so I can rewatch my favourites in this season at least. Like Pidge gaining new abilities as well as Hunk. Lance and Keith using Fire and Ice more often was nice to see especially in smaller moments like the cube reflecting Blue’s ice attack back on Lance and Keith/Red helping out.

The final battle with Zarkon was also intense. His obsession with Black was so typical of an abuser who doesn’t want to lose control and the end to that battle. Poor Shiro. Gave me chills to be honest because we don’t know whether Shiro is dead at this point or just missing. Very amazing end to the season.

Favourite characters this season is hard because they all had good moments but I suppose Keith and Allura stood out the most, their combined arc was amazing to me and it really increased my respect for Keith. He was so patient with Allura! It was awesome.
