And Then It Is Monday - Why Sunday's plan did not (and could not) work

So normally I don't really make longer analysis posts, but I kept seeing people on social media outright supporting Sunday's actions in 2.2, and I wrote something out about why I personally think that Sunday's plan is wrong. I don't know if this is an issue with tumblr as well, given that the people I saw supporting him were on different forms of social media, but regardless.

Before I begin, I'd like to pose a reminder that the opinions in this are mine and mine alone. If you agree, awesome! If not, I'd love to hear your thoughts on it, so long as you're respectful! I have no idea if this is well written or will make any logical sense, but here we go!

(Spoilers for the 2.2 Trailblazer quest under the cut, if that wasn't already obvious)

So the first thing to get off the table: I feel Sunday is a very sympathetic villain, but a villain nonetheless. I understand the people that sympathize with him. I do too, to an extent. He was raised on unhealthy ideals and the belief that he was a "religious figure," one that people looked up to. Other people were allowed to just be, but Sunday always had to be better. He loved his sister, and the people around him, and he wanted to make a better world for them.

But that does not excuse what he did. Making a 'better world' can never come at the cost of taking away people's free will, because that world will never be "better". That's where Sunday's plan falls apart.

Because, yes, there are shitty people in the world, and yes bad things happen. Would it be amazing if we could stop all the bad things from happening ever again, and make the world a much better place? Yes! It would! I would love to live in a world where I don't have to fear for my life and my freedom for an assortment of reasons! But that world doesn't exist--in real life or on Penacony--, and getting it to exist shouldn't be the result of subjugating and controlling other people, because that in and of itself is violence. Albeit a different kind of violence, but violence nonetheless.

Not to mention that things like Sunday's plan and the concept of forcing everyone to act a certain way just to fit this "better world" to me almost serves as a condemnation of human nature and of the very act of choice itself. Your better world starts by saying that some choices are bad, so those choices get taken away, but where does it end? What if someone in charge views a harmless choice as a bad one, and takes away that one in return? Does it stop there, or does it continue, until no one at all is allowed to make any decisions, except those in charge? Who, really, does that benefit?

Consequences for certain choices exist. Generally, society says murder is bad (except for specific circumstances such as self-defense, which technically at that point is no longer even considered murder (at least where I live, it may be different in other areas, but I'm basing this off of my own experience)), so there is a concrete consequence to people murdering people--assuming that they don't get away with it. It doesn't stop people from murdering people, because the liberty of choice is still there, but it shows that just because you can do something doesn't mean you should or that you will escape without consequence.

People are going to do bad things. That is, unfortunately, how humans are. But our responsibility lies in holding ourselves accountable and in promoting growth and healing. That is how you build a better world. Not trapping everyone inside a dream world without any care for their feelings or beliefs, but in getting people the help they need, in fostering a society of positive change and human connection.

And that is why, as "golden" as Sunday's dream may have seemed, it was never going to work. In the end, as the story quest shows, human will and the desire for freedom wins out in the end. When there's a will, there's a way.

what’s your blorbo ranking? fave to least fave of the blorbos and why you like them?

Aasdfg my blorbos are in fact my top three tiers in my tierlist but in a different order than you might expect:

Logan, Oscar, Esteban, Alex , George, Pierre, Lando

Edit: I missed why I like them. 2023 rookies are endearing to me and I started watching F1 right as they debuted, 2019 rookies I just love their vibes together in any combination of the three, Esteban genuinely sounds like a nice dude, and Pierre... okay fine he's my he's hot pick 😂😭

was gonna try and get the video file up here with a link to the youtube video somewhere on the post but tumblr was taking a long time to load everything in ^^''

ANYWHOOOOO saw something in the comments on jrwi 105 implying the possibility of these two together and i thought to myself "theyre just like lalala and okokok! from the tiktoks!" so i went and quickly made this :V

[fanfic-gremlin-ft-trauma]

ik it's been like idk a month since the sokka singing hc. so this is kinda random. but i feel like sokka would have a silky smooth singing voice. but at the same time, his voice is strong. something like daniel ceaser but like a little bit higher.

singing runs like track in the family so basically sokka and katara got their voices passed down from the family. and when katara and sokka sing TOGETHER? it's like magic. their voices go so well together but katara doesn't like singing in front of people, and sokka plays too much.

i imagine sokka and katara cleaning up. a song plays that they love, and they start mumbling singing at first. but then they start feeling it and they just get into it. while they're singing, zuko just steps in. bc not only can his bf can sing, but his sister can too. so he just stands there in awe. and sokka and katara notices him so they just stop and pretend like nothing happened.

ITS BEEN LIKE MORE THAN A MONTH IM SO SORRY POOKIE BUT!!! This is so amazing incredible I’m actually crying. Now I’m imagining katara cutting vegetables n sokka sweeping or some shit, then they eventually start harmonising, swapping the end of the broom like it’s a microphone 😭 also YOURE SO RIGHT FOR THE DANIEL CEASER COMMENT!!! Like hold on let him cook the kitchen smells amazing?? yeahhh I’m gonna draw this eventually pls someone remind me at some point bc this is TOO GOOD to not draw

my sisters fiance got her perfume for mothers day, and he was being really stubborn about not giving it to her until mothers day but she was really persistent about having it now bc 1. shed already seen it and was there when he bought it and 2. he usually gets her presents early anyway and 3. shes run out of perfume

anyway they physically fought about it, bc theyre children in adult bodies, and eventually she managed to get it out of his hands and kick it across the room and then she invoked Sibling Loyalty so i had to run across the room and grab it so then theyre standing there, shes got him in a headlock but hes got her fully off the ground and he goes "what do you think?"

and i was like "...well she has already seen it, there's not much point in hiding it now- and she needs perfume anyway" and i have never seen that man looked so betrayed, and then he stole some of my iced coffee but i thought that was fair

Absolutely. Jade would draw on them, too, and they'd both have So. Much. Fun. They'd also draw their fursonas, and of course joke about Jade being a part dog, so she's in a way her own fursona in real life. Dave draws her in his signature style. Jade ends up drawing furry!Dave, too, not just Akwete, as a payback. All in good faith, obviously, they're just fooling around and they both know it.

And when their kids are born (or adopted), they are not only allowed but encouraged to add their own creative touches to the ever growing collection of plant pots and probably even more random knickknakcs.

They have one of the tackiest houses out of all the people they know, being outranked by 2-3 at best, but it's colorful and full of joy and good memories.

Something they have both always wanted.

here are all the songs i played on my radio show this school year! winter my sets were a bit more eclectic and contained some more indie or poppy songs (hyperpop valentines day show!!) but spring was all electronic/goth/industrial, with a lot from spanish-speaking artists.

theyre both over 7 hours long so check them out if you want to discover some new music :D

I am cringe but I am free; woe, pjo oc be upon ye. This is Jun. Last name Bok.

Jun is the child of Poseidon with more of an affinity towards earthquakes than water. However, in general, Jun is not as powerful as the rest of the Big Three children; this is partially because they do not allow themself to be. Earthquakes are a finicky power that requires Jun's tight control, but once they have the control and confidence, they use it as a way to throw opponents off guard and to trap them in cracks that open up the earth. In terms of control over water, Jun does not have any of the raw power needed to summon anything close to a storm. Instead they hone the water they control into something like a blade or more commonly, pressurized into a water gun.

Lore be below cut

Their weapon of choice is celestial bronze knuckles.

Unfortunately for... well. Jun doesn't see this as too unfortunate, but Jun has amnesia. They woke up one day in the middle of butt fuck nowhere and wandered around America for maybe a year or two before stumbling across Camp Half Blood. They were 14 when they woke up, a surprisingly older age for a rogue demigod.

Often quiet and unassuming, people tend to assume they are calm and don't pay too much attention— which is a mistake because they are suddenly fighting a monster with their bare hands (prior to the bronze knuckles)

They have more of a tragic backstory and story arc along with some truly self indulgent godly influence in Jun's story

But honestly? Above all, even with the tragic story and developmental arc of learning to trust oneself,

Jun is a crack oc. Literally their entire purpose is "be fucking hilarious and chaotic".

Are they involved in the first pjo series? ONLY IF ITS FUNNY

Do they change any major plot points? NOT REALLY. ONLY IF ITS FUNNY

They are meant to be put in a jar and shaken before thrown into ???? Setting
