bringing zane back for mcd season three isn't an inherently bad idea!! its a great opportunity to explore his motivations and there's a lot of great potential for interesting story line!! it just requires a massive status quo change in order to pull off effectively and that's where canon failed.

zane's biggest threat was his influence and untouchable status, but he can't have that in s3. the end of season two, zane has already lost every juror and every relic. okhasis has been successfully invaded by Tu'la and Ru'aun has been successfully invaded by the phoenix alliance. all of his family/allies are either dead or despise him, and the gods he dedicated his life to very much hate him. zane is the most wanted man in like three regions and he's been gone for nearly two decades.

zane is also an incredibly valuable resource for literally every major plot point in season three. shad wants to break out of the nether? zane knows how to traverse realms without void burn. aphrene wants to know more about her past? zane managed to find her ex's disembodied hearr pretty sure he's a wealth of knowledge on that topic. phoenix alliance wants to stop the war with tu'la? bestie they literally invaded to get to zane's notes.

however, all that involves actually developing zane past a very black and white villian, and jesson didn't want to. exploring zane as a character post-defeat might humanize him, and it would be too confusing if the good guys wanted the bad guy's help (despite setting up the scenario the season prior in episode 81).

jesson wanted to have their zane and villianize it too, so they retconned his entire character. yeah he looks like zane and has a few moments of zane, but he's made it very clear that he only cares about violence, power, and shadow knight lore. he is explicitly against all of the studying amd magicking he claims he never did, and is so far from the main plot he literally lives in a cave for half the season.

thinking about this post and how it is that lesbians can be boys/butch, how there are he/him lesbians and transmasc lesbians and nobody* bats an eyelash bc that’s established as normal and fine

but gay men can’t identify as so much as nonbinary without catching on the limits of acceptable social performance as required by the term “gay”

How torturous for you that I'll never get a taste...

Girl's a little salty that I rejected her.

"If you don't ship them why don't you just block the tag"

"because I want to see them"

"but you're seeing them kiss? I thought you didn't like that stuff?"

"I don't. But if I blocked the tag I'd also miss them holding hands and talking about their feelings and really great analysis."

"but you don't ship it..."

"yeah I already said that."

"right...."

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

i feel like a lot of the 'i hate kids' crowd would be more tolerant if they understood that due to a kid's limited experience of the world that 4 hour flight might just be the longest they've ever had to sit still for or that trapped finger might literally be the most pain they've ever felt in their short life or they might not have ever seen a person with pink hair ever so of course they want to touch it or nobody's told them yet that they can't run around the museum and they only just learned cheetahs are the fastest animals so of course they want to put that to the test. how were they supposed to know etc etc.

can’t stop thinking about my friend’s cishet partner who said last night that he doesn’t think anyone is the same gender. god-tier take.

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

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

You guys rlly don't realise how much knowledge is still not committed to the internet. I find books all the time with stuff that is impossible to find through a search engine- most people do not put their magnum opus research online for free and the more niche a skill is the less likely you are to have people who will leak those books online. (Nevermind all the books written prior to the internet that have knowledge that is not considered "relevant" enough to digitise).

Whenever people say that we r growing up with all the world's knowledge at our fingertips...it's not necessarily true. Is the amount of knowledge online potentially infinite? Yes. Is it all knowledge? No. You will be surprised at the niche things you can discover at a local archive or library.
