hot take: people on here hold percy to WAY too high of a standard. they either refuse to accept he has a real flaw or they call him a terrible person anytime heās not the epitome of loveliness
like⦠heās an asshole sometimes. why canāt people see that? why canāt people accept that? we donāt have to justify everything he does. has he been an asshole to annabeth? yes. has he been an asshole to nico? yes. was he TRYING to be mean? NO. he was either upset or uninformed or focused on bigger things. does it explain it? yes. does it excuse it? no. but it doesnāt mean heās a horrible person. heās just a PERSON.
itās the same with annabeth. yes sheās prideful and condescending sometimes. okayā¦? AND?? sheās still a kinder and braver person than most of us will ever be. and same with nico. he is an amazing person but he has also done some things that are absolutely not okay. you know why? because no one is perfect. itās okay to accept that our favorite characters do bad stuff but are still good people.
THEY ARE 50% HUMAN. WHY CANāT THEY BE HUMAN?? LET THEM BE HUMAN. ITS OKAY TO NOT BE PERFECT ALL THE TIME šš
#does anyone else notice this?#like GOOD LORD#people get SO mad when i say percy can be an asshole#and then whenever the topic of nico comes up people call percy a terrible person#like???#HEāS NOT#BUT HEāS ALSO NOT PERFECT#NONE OF THEM ARE#anyway#iām gonna go take a nap#percy jackson#annabeth chase#nico di angelo#pjo#heroes of olympus#percabeth#percy jackson and the olympians#rick riordan#riordanverse

Congratulations to TEAM CHEESE for winning the popular vote on the Charcuterie poll!
#charcuterie saga#digital art#I initally made the poll as a fun little side thing while I was away and not able to draw -#-and a week later it has become a true battleground of food passion!#I *will* be drawing the charcuterie board soon (I first need to plan out what this thing looks like based on the ratio of votes)#But I also really want to draw more faux stickers like this. Possibly...to make them into actual stickers?#Let's see what the vibes are like after I draw more. I'll do a interest check and if enough people want them...It will be so.#Team Olives and Pickles will get one next. As will team Crackers. You both fought hard but the battle was stacked against you.#Turns out people have very strong opinions about cheese!#Team Jam kept it fun with recommending the most delightful combinations and spreads.#Team meat made me laugh with their chants. Team fruit just wanted a lovely time.#Team crackers were the underdogs but fought a good fight.#Team olives and pickles - you weren't even an official team at the start but you made it your destiny. Well done.#Team Vanilla extract....You made me eat something terrible. Feta. Old chedder. Gouda. Babybel. None of these are good with Vanilla.#Don't ask me how I know that.#(I know I should do a soft goat cheese with some fruit in it. I just haven't had the opportunity yet.)#Thank you all for your participation and for filling my week with whimsy B*)#I've loved drawing these little mice a lot!

I realize youre probably more of a dog person, but can i offer fuzzy kitty tummy in these trying times?
(Wall-E sends his love <3)

#aawhh ;-;#thank you Wall-E#tell him he has glorious belly fur#and give him scritches from me#answered#meraxes-of-new-albion#I don't really believe in the cat person/dog person divide#šāā¬š«¶š#both is good#none of my cats have had black paws and I always find them terribly charming#darling your socks are all sooty

Bucky, Walker, and Alexei (but no one pays attention to him) all trying to give Yelena and Ava advice on how to socialize and make friends and so on but theyāre all wildly different and contradictory
It devolves into a screaming match between Walker and Alexei as Bucky puts his face in his hands in despair.
Yelena, Ava, and Bob sneak out of the room where Bob then gives the other two some actually halfway decent advice
But they didnāt make any real progress until one night Mel takes Yelena, Ava, and Bob to a drag bar
#on paper youād think walker would give the best advice#but itās actually a tie between bob and bucky#bucky just has bad timing when it comes to advice giving unless they happen to run into each other at 3 am in the kitchen#thunderbolts#thunderbolts*#yelena belova#ava starr#bob reynolds#alexei shostakov#john walker#mel thunderbolts#yes the idea did occur to me while thinking about the thunderbolts trying to help yelena with her crush/squish on kate#and then I thought āyou know who else was raised as an assassin by a shady organization and was robbed of a childhoodā#then I thought āwhich of these losers would actually be good at giving advice?ā#and the answer is none of them really but bob and bucky wouldnāt give terrible advice

ovo whispers menacingly abt his grandstanding .
#(you can grandstand and be impulsive and prone to violence and have a terrible temper without being arrogant thanks)#(the closest he ever gets to saying he's above anyone else is w/ the jotuns if you really squint at it and he only ever said-)#(- that he wanted to use /force/ aka /violence/ to get them to submit to his rule bc otherwise he views them as DANGEROUS)#(based not only on historical /fact/ but cultural differences boogeymanning and seeing firsthand how they-)#(-MURDERED SOME OF HIS PEOPLE???? AND BROKE INTO HIS HOME???? ON CORONATION DAY????)#(he doesn't act like heimdall or the warriors or sif or even loki is below him. he wouldn't /ask them/ for permission otherwise)#(he even asks the humans-he-just-met for permission a la jane and then respects their decisions and apologizes for being rude abt the mug)#(and the one time he says 'know your place' to loki is when loki is actively bUTTING INTO A CONVERSATION that thor is being ridiculous abou#(bc to thor it's about /winning/ the argument with laufey and he's totally losing track of his goal to try and figure out wtf the jotuns)#(were doing ///in asgard inside the palace IN THE VAULT on CORONATION DAY///.)#(arrogance is specifically thinking you are inherently better than anyone else bc you exist)#(thor very clearly demonstrates selfish desires that translate to poorly thought out deeds)#(eg: taking it directly to laufey instead of trying to take a step back and figure it out in OTHER WAYS before a direct confrontation)#(and he also demonstrates overblown self-confidence.)#(eg the āi have no plans to die todayā / ānone do.ā)#(that's being overconfident in his own abilities that's still not arrogance.)#( ooc . ) ā stories that leap from the page .#( salt to taste . ) ā in this house we love the actual main character . crazy i know .#tbd#(thor expresses boastfulness and pride similarly to his whole culture of over-exaggerating ur war stories)#(his vice is letting that vanity get to his head and fueling increasingly impulsive and stubborn decisions)#(out of the sheer and desperate desire to prove he's good enough to take up such a heavy mantle as the crown of asgard + nine realms)#(but he doesn't just look at other people and go 'oh yeah i'm so totally better than you just because i exist')#(he's also not a lightning mcqueen who actually DOES see himself above the rustees cars and the route 66 cars)#(goes out of his way to make that abundantly clear and wants actually nothing to do with any of them in pursuit of his own gains)#(only to finally figure out he's not all hot shit and slows tf down to understand and enjoy life as part of society not above it)#(he literally flies of the handle because he fully believes the jotunar actually plotted an entire elaborate scheme)#(SPECIFICALLY in the effort to exploit him as the green thumb weak link as Newly Instated King who Doesn't Know What He's Doing)#(And therefore will OBVIOUSLY do a terrible job because he's not odin and can never be odin but he /needs/ to be like odin bc odin is stron#(HE doesn't know it was loki's plan. he doesn't know it was /loki/ who timed it to the coronation.)

I have a dumb question, and I really hope this doesnāt sound rude. Whatās the logic for some of the characters? Like, if theyāre the āheroā in their storyline, but they donāt seem to follow Biblical doctrine⦠does that even count? Iām sorry if that sounds snotty; I donāt mean to have an attitude.
No, you're fine!!
Short answer: I don't know, I'm not the one sending in the characters š
But really I would say there's not necessarily a consistent logic that they have to fit. That's part of the beauty of Christianity, isn't it? Anyone who repents and believes is welcome; it's not limited to any certain type of people. For the characters people are sending in here, I think there are a few categories. There are some that fit what you said, who already hold Christian morals and who one could easily headcanon as being Christian within the story. Sometimes people send in villains who they want to have redemption arcs and become Christian. Sometimes it's characters who are Christian; mostly it's characters people would like to see become Christian.
#my favorite character who i headcanon as Christian is one who generally has very Christian morals and really wants to do good#but also lies a lot. and i think in that case it's like i could see him being Christian in the story#because Christians aren't perfect and even people who don't have their whole act together can believe#I'm not justifying continuing to do wrong. I'm trying to figure out how to phrase it#i think there's some post I've seen about how even terrible characters who do terrible things can be Christian#if they're repentant i think? point being that all of us are sinners and a character doesn't have to be perfectly good to be a believer#because none of us are. and a line from a song i know 'though I'm wretched i am not faithless' about a character who#has done bad things and is struggling to reconcile his actions with God's love and forgiveness#anyway. i was saying the character i like comes across to me as an imperfect Christian but also as someone who could really benefit from#learning and growing in the faith. i want to see that character grow morally stronger and become more like Jesus!!!#it would be good for him š¤·āāļø#and that's kinda the point of most of the characters people send. they either seem like they could genuinely BE Christian#or are characters people think really need Christianity in their lives#sometimes it's 'this character seems Christian' and sometimes it's 'i like this character and want them to become Christian'#i think characters who don't follow Biblical doctrine fall under either imperfect and learning Christian or needs Jesus in their life#ask

I just need to believe Sanji becomes a dad someday. I just need that. For me.
#he'd be so good/terrible at it#one piece#I also need to believe Usopp becomes a dad someday.#I'm pretty good otherwise.#we're talking distant future here - none of them need to be a dad like - now.#They're idiots and also babies

it would be so niche and i dont even know what id put in it, but ive finally finished listening to the blazing babe arc of naddpod + the short rests and im so tempted to like write the most terrible romance between mavrus and mac. i just think they could be even more worse for each other, their friendship is so toxic in canon and their romance would be even more so and thats why they should kiss about it imho peace and love on planet earth <333
#after the thing w illanis i think mavrus would get really caught up in his whole thing of 'the one who keeps mac in check'#and be very long-suffering about it like ugh i HATE that you put this burden on me but he ends up being equally as codependent on mac#like he spends so much time puffing himself up and seeing himself as the cool person who keeps the friend group together#that he doesnt know who he is/why he matters without that framework#and in the super rare event that mac ever decides that he doesn't need mavrus then mavrus would absolutely freak tf out#he'd sidebar with all his friends like 'hey?? don't you think it's weird how mac is OUT OF CONTROL lately?? he's been acting so WEIRD'#and everyone would be like what? i feel like mac is actually getting better hes doing good lately#and he'd be like no no no that cant be true at all and pretend to be 'investigating' and then go sabotage mac's self-growth#and then theyd kiss about it or something idk LMAO#mac would come visit mavrus at gladeholm and run into carl and be super awkward but happy about it (bc they used to be a thing)#and mavrus would flip out and be like HAHA WEIRD HOW IT TURNS OUT NONE OF US HAD ANYTHING IN COMMON WITH CARL RIGHT. HOW HES NOT ACTUALLY#ONE OF THE BOYS RIGHT?? REMEMBER HOW HE ABANDONED US? AND YOU??? NOT LIKE ME THOUGH#for SURE i think mac is the messiest out of all of them but i think itd be funny to see a role reversal and have it be mavrus freaking out#I really love the bon freres LOL i think theyre all such terrible toxic idiots & are easily the funniest dnd party ever#no maintag we keep the brainrot to ourselves lmao <3

the places where i think religion made me Weird are i think morally doing (consensual) fucked up shit to corpses is fine but i find the actual processes of embalming and cremation to be violating and disgusting on an instinctual level. and also i think judaica tattoos are insanely tacky if not outright disrespectful even when other jews get them. and generally seeing tattoos in jewish spaces is a weird feeling. but overall i am i think a chill guy for being considerably more religious (or idk, knowing/caring more about religion) than the average person. idc about promiscuity or gender roles or whatever. i just feel guilty every time i eat shrimp.
#just very used to the idea that tattoos are fundamentally unjewish#but like none of this is smth id say something judgmental to somebody over#it's just hangups i notice i have bc of my upbringing#it's also like... i am not particularly religious by Jewish standards#i mean jewish standards are totally all over the place- im an outstanding jew compared to holiday only jews#but a terrible jew by orthodox standards given that i don't keep kosher or observe traditional rules around the sabbath etc etc#but for christains like as far as i can tell half their rules r shit they made up that isn't in the new testament#like they don't approach religious rules in at all the same way (technically don't they just do the ten commandments?)#it seems to be more about how much time you put into religion than how observant you are bc theres not. as much to observe right?#like i think a christian teenager that goes to church every sunday and goes to dinner with old church ladies on the reg#probably they are Very Religious and also prolly sheltered#but me a jew who does that im not even a proper mensch#also being interfaith makes it weird and just not having good extended family in general#my mom is very passionate about judaism but her mom dgaf and all the other extended family is christian#so all i got is like stories about my dead greatgrandparents and all the stuff my mom picked up from them#nobody speaks yiddish or hebrew fluently. there's no objects rlly passed down bc my grandma was ashamed of her judaism. that kind of thing.#all of my jewish culture comes from synagogue and it was similar for my mom growing up too

there's a point to me saying that i am not a good person. that i am damaged and unlikeable and insane and toxic. that i did absolutely terrible shit to a lot of people.
and every time people deny it, i wonder why, because it's true.
but also every time people deny it, it hurts like hell.
i want someone to finally see me. i want someone to stop trying to make me feel better about it by denying it. because that's the absolute truth. and you denying it makes me feel like shit.
i want someone to finally see me for me and love me even if i am broken or evil or whatever.
because i am so done with people in denial. because the person who keeps telling me all these things, that i am smart, that i am sane, that i am kind, that i am beautiful, that i am strong, that i am good, no, more than good, actually "perfect"... that person fucking makes me vomit in my mouth. how can he claim to know me and love me "despite everything" if he won't even accept who i actually am? if he doesn't know a thing about me?
#i tried telling him that i am a schizophrenic. you know what he said? ''you can't be! you're so reliable and so smart and so sane!''#''someone must have fooled you because the doctors are so evil and you're so pure and innocent so you believe them''#and maybe i am that to you because you still intend to use me#but anyone with eyes would see clearly. that i am NONE of these things#i am so tired of people seeing what they want to see and trying to push that on me#i'd kill for a person to tell me ''i get it. and you are broken. and you are a monster. but i still love you''#because denial... insistence on me being Good just sounds like his words just like that terrible poison in my veins#and that only counts him... but being worshipped as a goddess of everything Right and Good just because he wants to fuck me...#just makes me want to vomit. just makes me want to fucking kill him and myself

the problem with having finished writing a fic yesterday is that i still have all this pent up blorbo energy but i don't have a wip to direct it at
#i have some other scum villain wips but none of them are compelling me#i just want to grab bingqiu and shake them around#and i would like to give sqh the same treatment. maybe with mbj involved#but i have no ideas...#god i wish i was an artist so i could just doodle my blorbos to purge them from my brain#but noooo i have to come up with plots. terrible.#i guess this is a slight request for prompts?#as always there is no guarantee i will be able to write/finish a prompt in a form that's good enough to post#but i would at least enjoy situations to toss my blorbos around in in my brain
